    Words of Paradise (4)

    I didn’t have to think long about the identity of the discomfort I first felt.

    The fact that only three people were mobilized for such an urgent yet important operation is also due to the behavior of the person who suddenly abandoned him in the jungle.

    Even the creepy déjà vu I felt from seeing the clown for the first time. Because everything is perfectly explained under just one assumption.

    An incredibly powerful illusion. A transcendental ability that cannot even be compared to that of Rick the illusionist who accompanied him in the process of stealing the archangel’s tears.

    An illusion that shook all five senses was cast on Lennok while he was unconscious and he was guessing when he would realize it.

    The reason why I couldn’t feel the heat or moisture properly was because even though I was unconscious and defenseless I was not completely affected by genjutsu due to Lennok’s strong ability to resist magic.

    However after quickly inferring a series of circumstances Lennok significantly raised his alertness to clowns.

    ‘I’ve never heard of an illusionist of this level. There is a high probability that he is already out of his mind.’

    He may have taken advantage of the time when he was unconscious and defenseless and used the supernormal ability of the airship called Silver Flagship.

    Still what does it mean to have cast a spell on Lennok even if only briefly?

    There was no doubt that the clown was also an incredibly powerful illusionist with a transcendental level of talent.

    Considering the curse of the special world which states that the more you learn and acquire high-ranking illusions the more you suffer from mania the clown must already be insane.

    The attitude of casting a magic spell on Lennok and waiting for him to wake up was too dangerous an idea to be called an ally.

    There was clearly a good reason why Soryu and Ermont were wary of him and called him a crazy person.

    However the clown just smiled and looked at Lennok as if he was amused by his attitude.

    Rather the red laser pointers aimed at Lennok’s robe glowed even colder.

    “Hey what are you guys doing?”

    In an instant Reya frowned at the tension that began to swirl around her and raised her hand.

    At the same time bright red dots disappearing in an instant in the air.

    “He joined because of a recommendation. Don’t intervene. “It’s a problem we can solve between us.”

    “…It’s dangerous.”

    A gloomy voice comes from inside the bulkhead.

    Is this the commanding officer in charge of the dozens of combat troops gathered here?

    “Speciality system. And against space-type wizards you almost always have no choice but to give up the attack first. Security may not be possible…”

    “Do you think I’m asking because I don’t know that?”

    Reya suddenly got irritated.

    “Of course I was called to this job because I have that level of ability. I actually want to see more so stay still. Don’t go out unnecessarily like you did during the performance. Do you understand?”

    “….”

    There was no answer.

    Instead the dozens of people hiding around the bulkhead watching Lennok and the laser pointer illuminating the dark cargo compartment just quietly disappeared.

    Reya glanced around the squirrel then came forward and held out her hand towards Lennok.

    “Freya. “What about that one?”

    “Victor.”

    There was no need to refuse greetings at this point.

    After shaking hands lightly she naturally distanced herself from Lennok and spoke.

    “It doesn’t matter to me because I think I can communicate better than that psychopath. “If you drink from a special strain there won’t be anything holding you back.”

    “It’s not as fun as I expected.”

    The clown who was quietly watching the scene laughed and said.

    “It’s been a while since my dice came out well so my technique turned out well but I didn’t expect it to be discovered so quickly.”

    “Is that important?”

    “It’s important…. What Reya said is not wrong. “How long you can survive my pranks will be a very important part of this job.”

    “….”

    “I never thought that Myeong would bring a space-type magician. Hehe…what happened? Since the game is over shall we get to the point?”

    As the clown said that he immediately grabbed the lever next to the bulkhead and lowered it.

    Pushuuu!!

    With a harsh noise as if the air pressure is escaping the door on one side of the bulkhead falls down revealing the ground thousands of meters below.

    Lennok who had inadvertently turned his gaze downwards paused.

    As the airship lowered its altitude slightly it cut through the thick clouds and revealed the magnificent jungle scenery below.

    A view of dense jungle covered all the way to the horizon.

    Even though the sun has already set and night has fallen the remaining heat on the ground rises through the air and spreads hotly creating a haze.

    What would it look like if night fell on the landscape of the South Mando Coast which was the self-reflection area of ​​the blue-eyed shaman Grisha?

    But what catches Lennok’s eye is not only the majestic scenery of the southern continent’s jungle that overwhelms the viewer.

    Dazzling light sources and acrid smoke spreading from all over the jungle and even the sight of pitch-black figures running through them.

    Other forces had already entered the jungle and were racing towards the well of the handbook.

    Snap!!

    Without hesitation the clown walked to the end of the downward-slanted bulkhead stood with both feet on the bulkhead almost vertically and tilted his finger downward.

    “Herdro Warlord Blood Spirit Clan leaflets and Guido must have arrived a long time ago… Oh that’s Mangrok’s spell. There were widespread rumors that southern shamans would unite and establish a huge dictatorship.”

    “….”

    The clown glanced at the time and laughed.

    “If you calculate the return time Gyebaek will arrive shortly after dawn. “We have to do what we have to do until the road to the well opens right?”

    “It’s something that needs to be done?”

    “Why are you asking that? of course….”

    Shhh!!

    said the clown gently touching the blade protruding from the end of his sleeve.

    “We have to deal with that annoying intruder.”

    His face which had always been smiling was no longer smiling.

    * * *

    As lights flash throughout the jungle forces from all directions clash in various places.

    As if mocking them the Pandemonium airship that Lenno was riding passed leisurely over the jungle and immediately began speeding toward the center.

    “It’s an item made with old world technology.”

    The clown said while squatting on one side of the bulkhead.

    The way he took out dozens of blades from his pocket and carefully handled them one by one to sharpen them seemed very sincere.

    As if he would never neglect what he had to do from now on.

    “Over the southern jungle intense convection currents caused by heat rising from the ground make flight nearly impossible. Unless you have a special car like we do you have no choice but to crawl like a bug down there and enter the jungle. Hehehehe!!”

    Reya who was lying carelessly on the cargo frowned at the clown’s words as he let out a dark laugh.

    “Hey I told you not to laugh like that. “It’s really fucking disgusting.”

    “…Hmm anyway we will start as soon as we arrive at the ruins where the well is located.”

    The clown said avoiding Reya’s sharp gaze.

    “Victor and I will take charge of each section heading into the ruins and Glenn will monitor the area outside the landing site. “Reya will remain on the airship to provide rear support.”

    “under.”

    “All right….”

    Reya’s snort and a gloomy voice coming from the darkness.

    Instead of answering Lennok nodded moderately.

    Looking at the situation it is clear that the clown is the leader and commander of this operation.

    Contrary to his casual attitude of making jokes and getting beaten up by Reya this would mean that the clown’s status and abilities are by far the most outstanding.

    “I will take my time secure some space until dawn and then head to the altar where the well is located.”

    The clown said gathering up all the blades lying on the floor with a single wave of his hand.

    “Open the well and give the signal when Gyebaek appears and launch the airship. “Anyone Reyna or Victor just needs to drop that thing near the well.”

    The sharp blade quickly pointed to the countless chunks of cargo piled up inside the bulkhead.

    There were dozens of pieces of cargo that seemed to be tightly wrapped in something thick and long. Each one is large enough to be comparable to a passenger car and exudes heavy momentum.

    “This is a piece that will be key to this operation. “The leader said it was something he had prepared for a long time.”

    “…Chief? “What did he prepare and give it to us?”

    Lennok’s gaze also sank heavily.

    If the leader who was by far the most alien among all the beings he had seen had prepared it for a long time then it was definitely not an ordinary item.

    The clown ignoring Reya’s words continued.

    “If you drive those things into Gyebaek’s body in order and place him in front of the well the last hidden Geass will be activated.”

    “….”

    The whole place fell into silence at the clown’s words.

    The last Geass that makes up Gyebaek.

    Not only was it hidden but everyone knew what it meant for the leader to know about its existence.

    Perhaps the core and key to this operation from beginning to end may lie right there.

    Only then did Lennok nod his head as he realized that the complicated magic circle drawn on the bottom of the bulkhead and the strange statues surrounding the area were arranged around the cargo.

    I heard that a strangely bizarre landscape was painted on the inside of the airship. I guess it was all for that cargo.

    If it was an object prepared for a runaway ascendant it would not have been strange if it had been kept under such strict security and preparation.

    “Well I said it was easy but I plan to handle all the difficult things so don’t worry too much.”

    A request too trustworthy to come from the mouth of a clown who was just trying to test Lennok by casting an illusion.

    Instead of feeling reassured or calming down at his words the clown stood up giggling as the atmosphere became more hostile.

    “As always you just have to do what you know how to do. Don’t be lazy and run after me. “Okay?”

    The clown nodded with a smile and raised his hand as he walked to the outside of the bulkhead.

    In his hands were the two green dice he had seen earlier.

    “Then shall we try today’s horoscope?”

    Clatter!!

    The dice fell from the clown’s hand and rolled around on the floor of the airship warehouse.

    [4] [2]

    “Umm….”

    “It’s okay.”

    Contrary to the clown’s muttering as if he was displeased Reya who was looking at the dice closely nodded.

    “I don’t really like it… Did I use too much luck earlier?”

    “That was an excessive number to prank a new recruit wasn’t it?”

    “Well a total of 6 is enough…!!”

    Kwaaaang!!

    At that moment a flash of light flashed in the labyrinth visible beneath the wide open bulkhead and the airship shook violently with a tremendous impact.

    At the same time as a flashing hallucination before my eyes the cargo inside the bulkhead floated into the air and flipped over.

    “Aaaah!!”

    Unlike Lennok and the clown who were able to balance naturally Reya fell from the cargo and rolled around and fell out of the airship.

    Wow!!

    Before the clown could move Lennok stretched out his magician and grabbed Reya pulling her up.

    She had a dazed expression as if she didn’t know she was falling but after belatedly realizing the situation her complexion became a little tired.

    “Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…!! “I almost lost my liver.”

    “It looks like he’s not physically capable as he looks.”

    “…I’m not in shape?! “I can dance too!!”

    Reya who was out of breath at Lennok’s words looked back at him with an angry expression.

    The clown shrugged his shoulders with a slightly surprised expression.

    “Did you know that you could handle a magician so skillfully? “It seems like he just goes too far in manipulating the trait system.”

    “….”

    “Well it has to be at that level so that the picky King of Myeong can take notice and try to get him to join…”

    Instead of bothering to respond Lennok blatantly ignored the clown’s words.

    This is because what I just said gave me an idea of ​​what kind of abilities I would play as a magician within Bokmajeon.

    A magician who specializes in manipulation and space-based special abilities.

    If he acted with the arrogant and rough personality of a magician who had acquired a rare type of magic it seemed like there would be no doubt about his identity for the time being.

    “Let’s stop talking nonsense and get started.”

    Lennok muttered flipping his mask downwards.

    “Because it seems like there are people who want to keep this side in check.”

    The impact that just hit the airship couldn’t have been purely coincidental.

    This would not have been possible if someone had not spotted Bokmajeon’s airship racing through the night sky of the jungle at high speed and attempted to intercept it.

    As if to support Lennok’s guess flashes of light were continuously flashing in this direction from various places under the dark jungle.

    “Kihihi is that so?”

    Clattering the dice in his hands the clown and Lennok step out of the bulkhead almost at the same time.

    “I go first!”

    “Go alone.”

    Wow!!

    Unlike the clown who fell to the bottom of the jungle Lennok who extended his magic spell during the descent pulled himself up and got back on the airship.

    “Huh?”

    The clown’s blank voice quickly disperses downward and disappears.

    Lennok immediately adjusted the ends of his sleeves and took out the equipment he had prepared in advance.

    Slam!!

    Wood-dud-dud-deuk!!!

    Elongated chunks of iron begin to line up neatly at the end of the airship’s fuselage while expanding the size and weight at the end of the sleeves.

    Inside the solid steel pillar a bright blue magical light rotates ceaselessly.

    Lennok who had placed dozens of iron blocks on top of the aircraft’s body twisted and pulled the lever of the case placed in front.

    Woooooooooo!!!

    At that moment a loud noise erupted that drowned out the sound of the airship flying and the case heated up in an instant.

    Lennok took his hand away from the long case which was shaking and making a loud noise as if it would explode at any moment and at the same time he kicked it away.

    Kyaang!!

    The case that was hit by the shoe fell out of the airship and was simultaneously entangled in magic thread.

    With a snap of his fingers the magician spins and throws the case he was holding with all his might. It was placed precisely at the firing point on the ground that Lennok wanted.

    The location was at the edge of the river where the light that had just attacked the airship flashed.

    The magical light contained in the case descends at a rapid rate and becomes faint enough to be invisible to Lennok’s eyes.

    Quaaaaa!!!

    It exploded in the middle of the river with a tremendous roar creating a bluish hemisphere.

    “This shit is hot from the beginning!!”

    As Lennok opened the second case he had immediately set aside and was about to operate it an iron door opened on the roof of the aircraft and Reya staggered out.

    “The radar down there is crazy. “What kind of bullshit are you throwing at me?”

    “It’s a bomb.”

    Lennok answered in a pitchless voice.

    “There is no need to give up the location advantage at this point.”

    The clown seemed to understand that Lennok wanted him to get down and move quickly but Lennok had no intention of going down right away.

    There are plenty of ways to project firepower without having to go underground so why waste magical power already?

    Even if you don’t use your own magic there are plenty of ways to forcibly inflate your firepower.

    Blueprints for the Machine City’s advanced weapons obtained from Gearside’s database.

    The case that had just been thrown toward the ground was a type of bomb created by entrusting the blueprints to Palmer.

    The exact name on the blueprint is Mana Resonance Area Control Resonance Incendiary (MAPHI). This is something commonly referred to as the mafia.

    An item that causes an explosion with flammable substances filled inside the bullet and then amplifies the power with the magic power contained in the case thereby inflating the firepower and range beyond the resources.

    It is a symbolic bomb used as a war bomb in the machine city of Machina and is a product that continuously attempts to develop its power and range.

    Lennok also asked Palmer to take care of it but since it had unusual firepower and range he had no use for it in one-on-one combat.

    In the battle with Madrich Onion the explosives that I had stockpiled just in case were finally used.

    Once exploded the entire case and flammable materials evaporate so there is no need to worry about leaving any traces.

    An object that is perfectly suited to be used to launch a one-sided bombardment from such a distance from the ground.

    “It would be enough to recognize the existence of an airship and drop it in the direction where an attempt is made to intercept it. “Let’s make it so you don’t even think about looking in this direction.”

    As Lennok said that he activated three cases at once and kicked them out of the airship.

    Bubbubbubbung!!!

    In various places in the dark jungle bright blue hemispherical spheres burst out and disappeared illuminating the entire area.

    Screams and shouts could be heard faintly from below. At the same time as if promised the flashes of light in the sky began to decrease significantly.

    “I feel refreshed.”

    While Lennok shook his hands and adjusted his mask Reya nodded.

    “I wouldn’t carry a bomb with that much power around with a sober mind. “You were storing it in subspace?”

    “what?”

    “It’s fascinating. “This is my first time seeing a space wizard in person.”

    Although she only carried it around with a lightening and bulk-reducing magic circle it seemed that Reya was already completely mistaken about Lennok.

    “I heard a rumor that space-based magicians are strictly maintaining the form of foreign tradition but I had no idea that the tradition is still continuing.”

    “….”

    “I also received an artifact with subspace as a gift but the capacity was very small. “How convenient would it be if you could make something like that yourself? What is it actually like?”

    While Reya is talking the airship suddenly begins to lower its altitude.

    The deepest part of the jungle is so dark that you can’t even clearly see the terrain.

    The dense trees and bushes disappeared revealing a plateau-like terrain with countless piles of stones piled up on a wide field.

    Lennok narrowed his eyes as he realized that the piles of stones piled up all over the plateau were the remains of something.

    ‘The shape of the buildings and city altars… Is this an ancient civilization?’

    Remnants of an ancient civilization in the southern jungle now forgotten.

    We arrived at the Well of Handbook one of the worst demonic scenes in the Southern Continent that even those living in the jungle cannot approach.
