    Master of the Military Command (1)

    Sigh…!!

    The iron gate located in the middle of the old wall opens and two headlights shine in the darkness.

    What appears on the slowly rolling wheels is the shape of a massive bike.

    Although it was hard to see clearly in the darkness there was only one person on the bike.

    In silence filled with tension.

    Lennok who arrived at the Grimoire Gang headquarters district for the first time at the end of the race looked around in silence.

    ‘It’s bloody.’

    It is a violent organization that has occupied two areas on the outskirts of a large city.

    It is natural that its organizational power and cruelty are at an unusual level compared to other forces in the shadows.

    The miserable sight of endless barbed wire and corpses strewn about like laundry clearly showed what kind of place the gang was.

    Images of members riding on vehicles and structures studded with spikes and studs standing here and there.

    Someone’s limbs sticking out of a trash can with blood on the cement floor and flies buzzing.

    Hundreds of gang members who committed all that tragedy with their own hands are staring at Lennok alone.

    Hundreds of gazes brighten the darkness with eyes filled with a hazy ghostly light as if possessed by a ghost.

    As Lennok was looking around with his eyes wide open someone sitting on a truck full of scratches asked.

    “What about the others?”

    [does not exist.]

    An eerie tone coming from beyond the visor.

    Lennok answered.

    [I am the only one.]

    “…Are you the only one who survived to the race’s destination?”

    [I heard an interesting story.]

    Lennok said completely ignoring the question from the man on top of the truck.

    [It was said that the gang was secretly working with other participants to intervene in the race.]

    “….”

    [It is true that something unpleasant happened in the process of confirming that fact.]

    Lennok muttered with his arms crossed with a sneer on his face.

    [He must be rolling around in the drug powder right now with his eyes open.]

    “This bastard….”

    There is no member here who does not know what exactly Lennok has done.

    Aside from the chaos that occurred during the race the surrounding area was torn apart and destroyed and the aftermath was unusual.

    Just thinking about resolving this situation which has left other competitors behind and wreaked havoc throughout the district is a headache for the gang.

    Meanwhile Lennok’s attitude of calmly muttering as if it was none of his business was something that gang members were not very familiar with.

    The moment when the other members who were furious grabbed their tools and tried to stand up one by one.

    A voice like thunder fell from behind them.

    “We regret that participants were harmed by unfounded rumors about the race.”

    Squeak…!

    The huge iron door hidden in the dark opened and a huge man appeared and began to look down at Lennok.

    Fiery red hair. Tattoos tattooed all over his body and a muscular physique. Even boiling low magic power.

    Crash clank clank!!

    The blood-covered greatsword hanging loosely at his waist shakes and makes a loud noise every time he walks.

    Among the elements that make up the body there is not a single one that stands out.

    Explosive force emanating from a gigantic body. The sight of other members naturally lowering their heads.

    Who would doubt that this man is the leader who led the Grimoire Gang to its current position?

    The man standing on the old support beam looking down at the other members in an instant spoke.

    “I will take responsibility for this by cutting off the heads of all those who manipulated the participants.”

    [It’s responsibility.]

    The man grinned at Lennok’s words.

    At the same time he nodded lightly towards the countless rotting corpses hanging on the barbed wire.

    “At least that way we can mourn for the other stragglers that we have to clean up with our own hands today.”

    […I see.]

    It took a while for Lennok to understand the meaning of those words and laugh as if it were absurd.

    [If the others cannot come in before the sun rises are you going to kill all the other participants except me to silence them?]

    The man didn’t answer any more.

    He just looked at Lennok carefully with a heavy gaze.

    Lennok who understood that the silence contained a positive meaning also slightly turned his body to the side.

    [This is not a satisfactory answer. There must be something you have to say to me first right?]

    “How long will this dog will talk about it … !!”

    The moment when one of the members standing next to Lennoc could not bear it anymore and raised a club with a stud on it.

    Taaaang!!

    Suddenly the sound of a gunshot was heard and the head of the man holding the club disappeared.

    Patter!!

    “…!!”

    A headless corpse falling down with hot blood flowing down. The other members held their breath in silence.

    It’s not simply because Lennok killed one of their members.

    This is because there was not a single person present who saw the moment when he pulled out a gun and shot himself in the head.

    [If you think about it it was a strange thing.]

    Lennok opened his mouth as he slowly rode his bike among the members who quickly became quiet.

    [Not only do we hand out city government supplies as race rewards but we also gift useful artifacts to those in the rankings. Even if this kind of thing continues to happen on a regular basis rumors may arise secretly.]

    “What do you want to say?”

    [This means that this race is not simply an event where 100 people stand up and decide who is superior or inferior.]

    “….”

    As I slowly walk through the darkness unable to see even an inch in front of me only the voice of a wizard continues to echo.

    [Night race starting around midnight. Gather about a hundred people force all participants to pass through the stop and return before dawn… It is a race that begins with only a start and end instead of regulations for fouls or decision dropouts.]

    Lennok laughed.

    [Doesn’t it feel like a magic trick that is completed by participating in a large-scale ritual?]

    The gang’s attitude strangely enough seems to place more importance on the process than the outcome of the race. A series of circumstances that clearly seem to be linked to Madrich Onion.

    It can be understood by adding the keyword military order to the reason and basis for actions that do not fit in any way.

    The fact that everything that has been happening so far is very simple under just one assumption.

    [I know that rituals similar to this existed a long time ago. A plan to build a bridge to ascension by gathering all the spirits and ears of this world… It almost feels like a microcosm of that.]

    Lennok said as he slowly walked in front of the man and stopped.

    [I think it would be very appropriate to call it a night trip.]

    “…Whew.”

    The man sighed softly and looked up at the sky.

    “Why did the bastard who knew so much get involved in this matter?”

    He scratched his head in annoyance and slowly walked out of the darkness muttering in an annoyed tone.

    Wow!!

    At the same time a huge greatsword was dragged out from the other hand.

    Rows and rows of cumbersome rings and chains hang between the blades and rotten flesh and blood can be seen stuck between them.

    The man who looked down at Lennok with his fly-tangled greatsword resting on his shoulder said.

    “If I had said that in front of the other participants I would have killed them all. Even if you didn’t win this race. “I don’t know whether to call myself lucky or stupid.”

    [What does it mean?]

    “The reason our gang is holding a race… is that it has been properly satisfied for the first time in a very long time.”

    Paaaa!!

    At the same time as those words are spoken the cavity inside the wall which had been immersed in darkness becomes brightly lit revealing what is inside.

    Intense spotlights hanging from wall pillars. A huge amount of light illuminates all directions just like when lighting up a huge stadium like a stadium at night.

    The images of more than a hundred people surrounding Lennok are revealed at once.

    Dozens of armored vehicles studded with iron spikes and studs and countless gangsters riding on top of them looking down on Lennok.

    The equipment and clothing in hand are varied but the cold life that flows out makes the back of Lennok’s neck tingle.

    It is also a self-evident fact that not all of the hundreds of people are high-level superhumans but there are quite a few of them with military-level skills.

    The man raising the bloody greatsword in front of Lennok and the skinny magician hanging on the iron wall were even level 7 superhumans.

    The Grimoire Gang’s power satisfies both quantity and quality so much so that it is awkward to say that it is based on sheer numbers.

    The male gang boss who was at the forefront of the gang said.

    “It’s been a long time since we’ve seen someone stand out like this in a race. “It’s more than enough to become a candidate for a new military commander.”

    [It’s a new military order.]

    Lennok laughed.

    This is because I realized that there was no need to check further once I heard those words from the boss’s mouth.

    The reason why the Grimoire Gang held races irregularly offering public supplies from the city government as compensation.

    Was it to welcome excellent participants as new military commanders through a ritual of the Hundred Ghost Nights that imitated the Hundred Ghost Nights?

    The moment I heard directly from the mouth of the Grimoire Boss that everything that had happened so far was just to add new power to the military magician they served.

    Lennok slowly took off the visor he was wearing.

    “To say that means you are also one of Madrich’s military commanders.”

    “…what?”

    “It is very interesting information that the head of the judicial agency was now using secret criminals as military orders.”

    Lennok grinned looking up at the stiff face of his boss.

    “If I catch you and dig into the inside story I might be able to find out where Madrich Onion is hiding. “Isn’t that right?”

    “It’s half!!”

    Someone who was looking closely at Lennok’s face let out a scream that sounded like a scream.

    “I’ve seen your face before…!! There is no doubt that fastness has arrived…!!”

    “Fast? The one from District 49?”

    “A blood-crazed wizard participated in this race!”

    Despite the shouts of someone of unknown origin the members of the Grimoire Gang quickly understood the fact and took action.

    A being that overwhelmingly trampled on other participants and won the race in which over a hundred superhumans participated.

    This abnormal result which had never occurred during the race conversely convinced the opponent that he was fast.

    A madman crazy about blood and battle. A shadowy homicidal maniac who spreads death wherever he passes. An iron man who leaves no witnesses from the moment he appears.

    Unless you are a monster of that level of fame and skill it is impossible to achieve such results in a race.

    If the reason for the unconvincing results is the existence of Lennok there is no need to doubt it any longer.

    The armored vehicles and trucks surrounding Lennok started up and rushed forward.

    At the same time dozens of members on top of it exploded with sharp murder and magical power.

    “You must subdue the wizard before he uses magic!!”

    “Kill!! “The boss said it doesn’t matter if I kill him!!”

    “Spread the net!! “Spray iron needles and throw bombs!!”

    Kwagwagwagwang!!!

    Sharp iron nets are spread out between the armored vehicles and sharp iron spikes that impede movement are sprinkled under the feet.

    Burning bombs flew overhead continuously spraying thick smoke before causing a huge explosion that turned into a wave of flames.

    Dozens of armored vehicles raced through the net they had created and the thorny heat waves and in an instant rushed towards the spot where Lennok was and knocked him down.

    Couuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!

    Just as he had taken the lead he immediately stopped all his movements and became silent.

    Shuuu…!!

    “Did you get rid of it?”

    “You crazy bastard!! “If you say something unlucky like that…!!”

    The moment when the boss who was watching the whole scene from behind with his arms crossed twitched his eyebrows.

    Whoop!!

    As the spotlights that brightly illuminated the square turn off the entire area is plunged into deep darkness.

    “What turn on the light!!”

    “I don’t have any fire…!!”

    “You have car headlights you idiot!”

    Faaah!!

    The headlights of the armored vehicles that were huddled together turned on revealing a huge mass of shells standing tall blocking the bonnets of dozens of armored vehicles.

    Lennok’s voice echoes through the fragments of a shell that is so hard and strangely shaped that it is hard to believe that it is the shell of a living creature.

    “Uncharacteristic of a gang they use nice vehicles.”

    “What what?!”

    “If the headlights turn even if you stick your head here it means it’s a very sturdy product.”

    Let’s go!!

    Lennok spoke again with a sound like a screw turning somewhere.

    “To the point where I want to open it myself.”

    [Car body structure analysis completed.]

    In Lennok’s arms Dabi twitched his front paws and muttered.

    [35 categories. 433 types of identical parts. Power identification number assigned to 52215 individual components.]

    Crash!!

    All of the armored vehicles with their heads stuck in the carapace begin to tremble slightly and then slowly begin to collapse with their engines turned off.

    Drivers who were confused by the strange and unknown phenomenon pounded their seats in a hurry but once the engine was turned off it never restarted.

    Rather a noise like unknown metal colliding rang out from inside the armored vehicle and the sound grew louder.

    [Reverse the order of the predicted and implemented design according to the algorithm. The car body begins to be completely disassembled.]

    Charrrrrrrrr!!

    “Aaaah!!”

    “What are you doing!! “Don’t we have to break through that quickly and get in the way!!”

    Kwaaaa!!

    The gang members on top of the vehicle quickly came to their senses and pounded the shell like crazy but not a scratch was left on its surface.

    Meanwhile the shape of the vehicle with dozens of people on it collapsed and its parts were disassembled one by one throwing away the concept of an armored vehicle.

    Doo doo doo doo!!!

    “You crazy bastard…!!”

    “What are you doing now…!!”

    The bonnet engine door and basic frame and wheel parts sink while hundreds and thousands of screws flow out and float overhead.

    The interior of the car including the seats and parts such as the radiator gear knob are disassembled to the limit and are falling apart.

    Gang members lost the shield of the armored vehicle that protected them and fell to the ground in vain.

    Drurrrrrrr!!

    I just look up in horror at the tens of thousands of screw parts that are constantly disintegrating above my head.

    The man let out a loud roar as he saw the members’ entire bodies being dominated by the helplessness of not being able to understand the other person’s intentions or stop them.

    “What kind of bullshit are you doing now?!” “Focus on lifting the shield!!”

    “Bo Boss…!!”

    Wow!!

    “If you can’t break through just push it out with force. Are you forgetting who needs to bow down now!!”

    The boss quickly resolves the situation with a few words and raises his magic power while holding the great sword.

    “All necessary rituals have been completed so it doesn’t matter if you kill me!! Even if you turn it into a corpse it’s enough to just process the spirit and take care of it!!”

    “All right!!”

    It’s true that ever since the Grimoire Gang joined hands with the city government’s high-ranking officials their boss has been muttering strange things.

    But no one was dissatisfied or questioned it.

    As a result the gang was transformed into an organization that occupied two outlying districts and its members also began to enjoy appropriate rewards.

    All that is required for pleasure without responsibility is to periodically hold races according to the boss’s words and judge whether the winner is worthy or not.

    And when the requirements are met all you have to do is do your best to follow the boss.

    The members’ eyes who were following the man’s words as if fascinated had already been covered with a hazy film without them even realizing it.

    The moment when the members moving in unison according to the man’s words as if they had become one colony were trying to push away the carapace and bring out the wizard inside.

    [Phase transition: potential resonance]

    [Self-hwabaekryeom (磁和魄簾)]

    [Withdrawal report]

    Tens of thousands of screw parts of the armored vehicle which had been silent while floating in the air wriggled all at once and disappeared on the spot.

    Paaaaang!!

    With a small faintly resounding sound the voices of members who were talking noisily in all directions suddenly stopped.

    “….”

    Drop drop.

    Hot blood soaking the dirt floor mercilessly.

    The bodies of the members who had been swearing and yelling just moments ago fell down like dolls whose strings had been cut.

    Wow!!

    Their bodies began to faintly twitch with their heads on the floor with hundreds of large and small holes forming countless dots.

    The gang boss who was yelling at his members also realized what had happened and his lips trembled.

    “This can’t be right…!!”

    The parts of the armored vehicle that had been disassembled in the air just moments ago did not disappear on the spot.

    It was fired at such a speed that it was barely noticeable to the gang members gathered here and it only pierced through hundreds of members scattered in all directions.

    Tens of thousands of armored car screw parts are dismantled at once and all parts are temporarily given the same polarity of magnetism to repulse them and send them flying in all directions.

    It only uses the property of magnetic force where like poles repel each other but if electromagnetic force is added through lightning magic the power is also amplified exponentially.

    An unrealistic metal manipulation ability that allows you to steal an opponent’s means of transportation disassemble it entirely and use it as a bullet.

    Even though it was not at a speed that a superhuman would have been able to react to it was unable to withstand the scope and surprising idea that covered the entire area.

    Even those who survived cried out in pain their entire bodies covered in blood.

    “It hurts it hurts!!”

    “My legs aren’t moving…!! “Please save me…!!”

    Wow!!

    A split shell shield falls on the head of a gang member who was crying and clutching his punctured body.

    Lennoc unable to even scream walked up onto the shield that had turned into a handful of blood looked down at his surroundings and frowned.

    “Using screws as bullets is less efficient than I thought. “I need to be careful about overusing self-reflection.”

    Even for Lenok it is difficult to individually grab and manipulate tens of thousands of screw parts with horsepower.

    The scope of control is only to apply magnetism by spreading an electric field in the area amplify the repulsion of the magnetism and shoot it out in all directions.

    Even with Dabi’s help in the part decomposition calculation itself the direction of repulsion itself could not be individually manipulated so the results were not as good as expected.

    However the man who saw all the tragedy before his eyes had no choice but to take those words completely differently.

    “How could a human… do something like this…!!”

    Reaching level 7 star status does not mean that you become an incomprehensible monster.

    Becoming better at what you can do. Completing the discipline and imagery that has been built up over time.

    Because what humans face at the end of self-transformation is far from fear or ignorance.

    However what the man called Lightning just showed was not the power of a complete superhuman or outstanding magic.

    It’s a move that casually pokes into gaps in your thinking that you weren’t conscious of and eliminates even the time to think.

    Can this be called force as it immediately overturns and tramples on the environment and war situation that were absolutely advantageous to the gang just moments ago?

    An idea so strange and overwhelming that even criminals who have seen all kinds of ugly and dirty things in the shadows cannot understand.

    The moment when the man was at a loss for words as he looked at the wizard in front of him who seemed as if he had not been bound by the concept of humans and hierarchy from the beginning.

    Lennok walked forward grabbing a handful of screws and muttered with a smile.

    “Let’s try a little more tactfully this time. “If you want to call your master you’ll have to save at least one mouth.”
