Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 497



Between immortality and mortality (5)

“Cluck cluck…!!”

Lying face down on the cold floor of the pantheon I try to raise my body somehow but in vain.

Even though he had planned this moment from the beginning Lennok could not easily say a word to him.

My entire head is shaking and it feels like my brain is being hit.

My entire stomach was turned upside down and trembled and with a sharp pain that felt like it was stabbing through my temples my magical power surged like crazy.

“Fuck you…!!”

This is not simply a phenomenon of exhaustion that occurs immediately after using the area.

The second magnetic field used to kill Amrita. It’s just that the power of the turning point that seeks immortality has become an aftereffect and is hitting Lennok again.

The magnetic realm Gwangra Muhae Palace is a power that covets and consumes transcendental status such as immortality within the realm.

A harmless apostle who does not serve God. The realm of the Temple of the Madmen is nothing short of the natural enemy of all existing continuity.

However the power of Gwangra Muhae Palace which was created by choosing a turning point of possibility that should not have existed is bound to come with powerful side effects.

This is the extreme of singularity that can only be achieved through Geass with the absurd condition that Lennok himself who possesses the rationality of a perfect wizard goes crazy.

Because it is established on the premise that Lennok goes crazy it is absurdly powerful and heterogeneous but also has to deal with the madness of another person who has truly gone crazy as a result of the reaction.

Therefore Lennok predicted these side effects and tried to absorb as much reaction as possible with the power of false enlightenment in advance.

Even though all the arrangements and plans were successful Lennok was still rolling around on the ground in pain.

No unlike when I first responded to the cult leader the situation gets worse as time passes.

The cult leader smiled lowly as if he understood Lennok.

“That’s what it means to refer to a non-existent mortal… It’s going to be hard to think straight for a while.”

“…!!”

The cult leader begins to walk towards Lennok who has fallen with his back turned.

A dazzling halo unfolds behind it completely covering the otherwise erased face.

“But I have no choice but to admit that this moment is the fruit of a wonderful defeat… Is it possible to accept even one’s madness for the sake of a purpose?”

The cult leader slowly turned his back and came in front of Lennok and muttered quietly.

“The determination to endure even the most unwanted moments… was excellent. “It was something I could never have chosen in the past.”

“this…!!”

Lennok tried to answer somehow but still couldn’t stand up.

The self that has gone crazy and become an apostle of harmlessness overlaps with the real self creating a madness and chaos that does not exist in one’s mind.

It would not have been surprising if an ordinary human had turned into an idiot long ago due to the overwhelming amount of information and overload.

Lennok too can barely endure the aftereffects and hold on to his senses.

The cult leader looked at Lennog blankly then quietly leaned down and whispered in his ear.

“The reason I answered the call today is because I respect that brilliant determination. No more than this…”

“Ugh…!!”

“You don’t need to hear an answer. “After the world changes even these questions and answers today will lose their meaning.”

The religious leader who slowly raised his body passes by the fallen Lennok.

“My friend will arrive soon and resolve the remaining issues. Please be sure to get help if you need it….”

The quiet steps gradually move away.

Beyond the magnificent pantheon its presence became faint as if it would disappear at any moment.

The moment when the leader without hesitation was about to disappear again like a bubble among the fragments of Amrita’s memory.

“wait…!!!”

Lennok stood up from behind and shouted with difficulty.

“….”

The leader turned around without saying a word and looked at Lennok.

Legs twitching as if it was difficult to stand properly. A face dripping with sweat.

Eyes and lips that shake constantly. An extreme state in which it seems difficult to even speak properly.

The cult leader knew how Lennok had damaged Amrita’s immortality and what the side effects meant.

You probably aren’t even sure if you’re saying it right.

Your head must be so damaged that you can’t check whether the thoughts being organized in your head are operating normally.

A terrible feeling where the sensations and thoughts of the whole body are mixed together and fragmented.

But Lennok was still standing up and talking to him again like a squeaky doll.

“This is difficult….”

The cult leader laughed.

“You really don’t want to be my apostle do you…?”

“I waited….answer me!!”

Lennok asked struggling to keep his balance from falling.

“You know…!!”

“….”

It forces the senses that have been distorted and lost within the body back together.

The blank space that feels like it has been lost is revived in memory and implemented mechanically.

Despite forgetting how to speak and even how to stand Lennok’s transcendental cognitive abilities allowed him to learn and master the task all over again in real time.

“…You know.”

Before I knew it Lennok’s language had returned to being fluent again.

Lennoc desperately gathered his thoughts and spoke again.

“You all know.”

“I’m listening.”

The cult leader nodded.

Lennok calmed his breathing little by little and whispered quietly.

“A mirror abandoned in the basement of a temple.”

“….”

“It must have been you.”

It is so still and quiet that I feel like my ears are going deaf from the silence.

The religious leader did not respond to Lennok’s words and just stared at him quietly.

Lennok asked the question he had hesitated hundreds of times and pondered over thousands of times.

“Was it you then too?”

“….”

“Was it me then too?”

“….”

Why was there a mirror in the basement of the Far East Branch temple that reflected people with the same level of existence as oneself?

Was this not a sign that someone who once had the same concerns and ideals as Lennok was looking for someone else?

One conclusion emerged after countless agony and agony.

Lennok asked.

“Was it me?”

“Hehe….”

The leader laughed silently. Without any answer.

As if that were an answer.

Stifling silence. A fleeting eternity that seems to last forever.

However the pantheon’s scenery begins to fall apart little by little to the point where all the wonder becomes meaningless.

Kugugu…!!

The huge pillars hundreds of meters in diameter and the magnificent corridors of the temple are gradually disappearing.

Amrita’s memory is disappearing and disappearing and the scenery contained within it is also disappearing.

The memory of the religious leader which exists only in her memory also disappears along with it.

Lennok gritted his teeth as his memories of the cult leader gradually faded.

“Answer me. “I deserve to hear it…!!”

“….”

The leader lifted up the face that had been erased from the scenery and quietly looked away.

He spoke between scenes of the collapsing pantheon.

“We are standing in the same place but we are not the same. Even if we are standing in different places we are not different.”

“…!!!”

The religious leader’s tone completely changed at some point.

Unlike before where there was some lack of power the voice of the Absolute is full of overwhelming and intimidating self-esteem.

“The awe-inspiring ceremony that I showed through Amrita is part of the ending we hope for. “It is a point that should never be changed.”

The cult leader laughed.

“The moment when all fates intersect as one is inevitable but until then we must not meet each other.”

“What on earth is that…!!”

“Don’t you know yet?”

The scenery of the pantheon collapses and the vast corridors and spire pillars collapse into the bottomless pit.

A crack on the other side of the hallway instantly eats everything and turns into a handful of void.

All that remains is the space where the two people stand facing each other shaking like crazy before quickly shattering into pieces and disappearing.

The leader said as he passed by Lennok.

“I am not you.”

A word that passes by as if there is no meaning to that fact.

Immediately after even a handful of fragments that made up the memory disappeared and Lennok’s body fell as if disappearing into the darkness.

The cult leader’s words are just echoing in my empty ears.

“If we can meet again at the end of one moment that will be enough.”

There seemed to be a faint smile in the tone of voice as he looked back at Lennok.

“It was the first time in a while that I had so much fun.”

* * *

Cheap profit…!!

“Ugh…!!!”

I rolled through the ashes frowning at the stinging pain running up my forearm.

A shock that makes your body jump upright and at the same time you feel dizzy and turn your stomach upside down.

“Wow!!!”

Unable to bear it he falls down and throws up harshly.

It was only after he raised his trembling hand and struggled to smooth his face that Lennok realized that he had returned to reality.

“What the heck…”

[Master….]

Dabi crawled out of his arms and looked up at Lennok worriedly.

The spirit that shares consciousness as Lennok’s lightning spirit must also be aware of the memory of the moment when it just met the cult leader.

That’s why Dabi’s face is also showing concern for Lennok even at this point when the whole situation is not over yet.

“….”

In the end Lennok could not properly accept anything the religious leader said.

Or maybe I vaguely knew what it meant but wasn’t sure.

Using Amrita’s death as a medium they reached a meeting that should not have happened but it ended up just as a question being asked.

It is doubtful whether the denial left by the cult leader at the end was the answer to Lennok’s question.

Or rather can we trust everything the religious leader said without hesitation?

Unable to even provide a proper basis for all of those questions Lennok just blindly took a gamble to meet the religious leader.

But if it weren’t for that opportunity this moment would never have come again.

“Whoa….”

I don’t regret it.

The time to choose was too short and making judgments was only a matter of the heart.

I thought that even if the Q&A was over and only worries remained it would never stop.

But even so it was difficult for Lennok to guess what exactly what he heard from the religious leader meant at this point.

“Battles elsewhere….”

[It’s not over yet.]

Dabi answered.

[Most of the religious forces inside the Far East branch island have been suppressed. Currently only the decisive battle between observers and agents continues.]

“…I see.”

There is no way that the believers of the church could not have recognized it the moment Amrita died.

Perhaps most believers had lost their will to fight at that point.

Thinking so Lennoc twisted his body with difficulty and slowly stood up.

[The aftereffects of using dual areas are serious. If you do not stabilize as much as possible there is a possibility that problems with your condition may arise in the long term…]

“There’s still work to be done.”

I stretch out my tattered fingertips and carefully pull out the magic thread.

“It’s meaningless if you don’t leave any regrets. “I finish what I started here.”

[really….]

In the aftermath of the battle when the power was lost something was pulled up from the burned underground rock.

thud!

Amrita’s corpse was crushed to the point where it was difficult to recognize its original form.

Not only is it charred black but it is torn apart and destroyed on all sides making it difficult to find its original appearance.

However to put it on the other hand it is tantamount to saying that the durability of the body is so excellent that it can tolerate the extreme effects of Lennok’s lightning system from the front and leave a corpse behind.

Deep!!

Without hesitation Lennok stuck his finger between the corpses closed his eyes quietly thought and nodded.

“Just as I expected. “Is this half a success?”

Lennok’s attempt to kill the unkillable by forcibly overturning the laws of reality within the Sanctuary was successful.

The only attack and defense that crossed the territory of Gwangra Muhae Palace.

At the end Lennok overwhelmingly suppressed Amrita’s golden technique with a flash of imagination and killed her.

However death in the mortal world did not mean that the concept of an apostle itself was erased.

The apostle who takes on the role of incarnation represents the will of the apocalypse floating in the open sea.

Even if the body disappears from the earth the will of the apocalypse continues to remain and search for a new suitable person.

Even if Amrita dies here and now a new apostle who inherits her power and will can appear at any time as long as the right person is found.

In order to fill the vacancy of the apostle wasn’t Ezel also calling in agents from each branch through the apostle selection ceremony?

“Dabi.”

[Pattern encryption is complete. Now just manifest the trigger and make it happen and it will be activated.]

“…good.”

An amber-colored crown that still maintains its original form even during fierce battles. He pushes it deep into Amrita’s body.

At the same time the crown glowed on the spot and the light began to seep into the inside of Amrita’s body.

Extract some of the power of the artifact using the control code left behind by Jindun.

Using it as Geass the will of the apocalypse remaining in Amrita’s body is sealed with the power of the barrier technique.

Kiriririk…!!

Amrita’s body twitching wildly with strange unknown sounds.

Even though he is already dead and his spirit has left the earth the instincts engraved in his body are rejecting what Lennok is trying to do.

[88-dimensional function encryption development. Connect and seal the doorways of the pattern using the confrontation pattern!]

It is not about touching the will of the apocalypse itself which gave Amrita her strength.

To be precise the method of the apocalypse itself which spreads its power over the earth through incarnations is twisted so complicated that it can no longer be touched.

The apostle magic that was manifested on this earth through Amrita is bound so that it cannot be used even if a new apostle succeeds her.

The apostolic technique ‘Amrita’s Scale’ which freely moved the church’s power to various branches is sealed to prevent it from being used again.

Support!! Jijijijijik…!!

The paradox is that although Amrita’s body has reached death the will of the end remaining in her body is stronger than ever.

An attempt that would have been impossible if he had not forcibly recreated the laws of reality on Amrita in the center of the sanctuary and killed her.

Lennok destroyed Amrita’s sanctuary from the front and created the current situation just for this moment.

[The 19-overlapping random variable array was applied to the decryption code that completed the encryption of the thought pattern and was lost. I will start blocking from now on…!!]

Additional work was done to not only prevent the use of the power sent by the apocalypse that Amrita serves but also to completely block the signal itself.

What if it wasn’t just about sealing the Apostle Art but if she could make it so that the god she serves would never be able to create an Apostle again?

If only we could get to the root of how an organization called a denomination could be established.

Ugh!!!!

The moment Lennok thought so he quickly raised his magic power to help Dabi’s calculations.

“Interesting. “Is that the method you chose to seal the Apostle Art?”

Someone in a suit was standing in front of Lennok.

The appearance of a man looking this way with his arms crossed and his thick glasses flicking.

The energy rising from his body was of a more foreign and deformed type than any other apostle Lennok had encountered.

“Oh don’t worry about it keep going.”

The man who noticed Lennok’s gaze smiled and waved his hand.

“I am interested in where the spirits of high-ranking apostles like us go after death. If possible I hope the sealing can be completed successfully.”

The man’s eyes shone coldly behind the glasses.

“Anyway I plan to bury everything that happened here today.”
