Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 500



Interim closing (1)

As the burst of light obscured his vision Lennok realized that the sensation in his left arm was gradually fading.

At the same time as the strange feeling of discomfort as the five senses disappear the sensitivity to perceive magical power is twisted and transformed into something else.

Cheap profit…!!

Hundreds of unknown characters began to be engraved on Lennok’s red skin from below his elbows to his fingertips.

Other observers also looked at Lennok’s changed arm with a dazed expression.

“Is this…?”

“what’s this? “What happened?”

“The shape has changed…? No it’s not like my body shape or length has changed. then….”

“Is it a concept of combining attributes? “If you look at the burning shape it is a reasonable result.”

“….”

Lennok ignored the words of those watching and quietly raised his other hand and smoothed his left arm.

The appearance of unknown letters engraved on the skin. On the outside there is no feeling of any special power or abnormality.

I only felt a faint discomfort as if there was a foreign object caught in the sensation on my arm.

Lennok looked down at his arms in silence for a while and noticed countless unknown scars etched into his skin.

The appearance of scars carved from an impossible battle that did not originally exist on Lennok’s body.

What does it mean that a deformed arm with a scar engraved on it appears even though this arm is undoubtedly Lennok’s own?

Cracking crackling…!!

At the same time a faint shape of noise began to get caught between my arms.

Any more than this is dangerous. A very strong sense of déjà vu as if declaring that.

“…I see.”

Lennok realized what this meant and immediately released the spirit form that imitated the Avatar.

Whoa!!

At the same time as a strange rotating sound the magic is released and the spirit body that fell from Lennok’s body turns into a handful of dust and disappears.

“Is that… the new power you gained through the super fusion technique?”

Geo asked.

His expression which had been calm the whole time was slightly brightened as if he was surprised by what had just happened.

“No rather than that you succeeded in merging with the Avatar by only listening to the principles and magical flow…?”

“To be precise it is not a success.”

Lennok said.

“If you ask me it’s half a failure…. If you try the same thing next time the results will be completely different.”

“…What on earth does that mean?”

“….”

Lennok no longer answered that question.

In order to explain that fact clearly I would first have to tell you about the meaning of his magnetic field.

Rather than that we should focus on the fact that the idea itself that Lennok tried had a greater sense of incongruity than expected.

Overlapping of existence through the principle of fusion. What results can Lennok achieve in the process?

Now that the possibility has been confirmed all that remains is to specify the conditions.

Lennok said looking up at the spirit body disappearing in the air.

“I guess I need to learn how to make a proper Avatar.”

Good profit…!!

“Vital signs lost. “There is no magical response.”

“It is estimated that more than six hours have passed since rigor mortis ended. “It’s too late to hope for a fluke.”

“The structure of the tissue cells themselves has completely collapsed. “It appears to have been exposed to firepower strong enough to break the bonds of the genetic unit.”

A cold hospital room illuminated by pale lights.

The second apostle quietly closed his eyes and listened intently to the stories the medical staff told him one by one.

A pure white cloth covered over Amrita’s body lying on the hospital bed.

Samples are extracted from the corpses that escaped and the investigation begins.

After the medical team’s opinion it was the turn of the high-ranking priests within the church.

“The magic circuit burst. “It is a trace of being submerged in a power output that even the body of an apostle cannot withstand.”

“Looking at the rate of cell regeneration in the body it is clear that once it has returned to its true body it has fully enjoyed its power.”

“They are rejecting and blocking the magic power that is being injected for the investigation.”

“The other party probably took a long time to take follow-up measures. “It’s an incredibly sophisticated craftsmanship that would otherwise be impossible.”

“It’s been a long time….”

The Second Apostle muttered that and slowly opened his eyes.

I thought it arrived ‘appropriately’ right after the battle ended when Izel and Amrita had just died.

In fact a lot of time had already passed.

“…No that can’t be possible.”

After reflecting on his inner sense of time the second apostle slowly shook his head.

“It would be correct to think that the magician there was that good.”

“In that case there is no other way for us….”

“Go ahead. “I want to hear more about your story.”

The priests who were watching the two apostles began to closely examine Amrita’s body and give their opinions one by one.

“…It’s amazing. “Even though time has passed since the person stopped breathing the tissue cells in the body are regenerating little by little.”

“It must be the result of a miracle caused by the will of the great God. However the playback speed itself…”

“Yes it is collapsing with successive incineration and destruction in each regenerating area.”

“It is an extremely powerful and vicious technique. Even within the religious order this is not the case unless it is the aftermath of the taboo weapon…”

The second apostle who was quietly listening to the words smiled faintly.

“It’s magic equivalent to a taboo weapon… that’s about it.”

“…Apostle?”

asked the apostle naturally ignoring the words of the other priests.

“No it’s nothing. “What is the status of the Apostle Art?”

“Uhm….”

“That is….”

The priests suddenly close their mouths and begin to notice the man.

“I tried to check it first but even accessing it is not easy.”

“I keep trying but I can’t get the pulse…”

The two apostles who understood the meaning quickly stood in front of Amrita’s body.

The moment I held Amrita’s burned wrist and instilled my thoughts into it.

Kiriririk!!!

A veil that rejects the will that explodes with an unknown and foreign spark.

The fragments of the veil began to tangle incessantly forming countless circular arrays in the air.

Even at a glance the light changes into the shape of a complex firewall and seeps back through Amrita’s corpse.

The priests who confirmed the existence of the array recoiled with blank expressions and the second apostle’s eyes shined sharply.

“What the hell is this….”

“This is the first time I’ve seen this technique. “How can this type of security magic exist?”

However the second apostle stared intently at the stream of arrays disappearing until the end and then suddenly blurted out a word.

“It’s Jindun’s barrier technique.”

“yes?”

“The individual compositions that make up the barrier are completely different but the overall magical arrangement and rotation speed pattern are similar to those of the Hangxia Temple Labyrinth.”

“…Did you figure it out by looking at it with the naked eye?”

Ignoring the shocked reactions of the priests the apostle placed his chin on his chin.

“It is an encryption barrier created by borrowing only the structure of barrier art and changing the contents to have a completely different feel….”

From the apostle’s transcendental memory he extracts only the closest information and patterns compares them quickly and calculates how to solve them.

“It’s like putting an encryption array into the spell itself and preventing its output. “It’s similar to the way information is handled in the machine city’s entire brain space but the pattern is very different.”

Sado who muttered for a while shook his head as if he had no choice.

“It will be difficult to find the decryption code unless we create a comparison group through a new apostle.”

“That kind of….”

“Are you saying that Amrita’s scale technique is sealed…!!”

Among the high priests gathered here there is no one who does not fully understand its meaning.

One of the apostolic arts which has strategically important value even within the church is being blocked.

How serious of a problem it is that the church’s weapon which boasts overwhelming versatility among apostolic arts is grouped together with the [Kamrodal Doll].

However although the second apostle clearly understood this he just smiled while stroking his chin.

“Well it probably doesn’t matter for the time being right? “I think it’s fortunate that we just signed a truce agreement with the Spell Alliance.”

“There will be huge losses in the process of transporting power tied to wires…!”

“Missionaries across the continent are urging the city for a quick solution. “If we don’t resolve this issue…!!”

Despite the urgent words of the priests the two apostles quietly turned their backs.

“You guys should take care of that part yourself.”

“Apostle…!!”

Away from the voice desperately calling him the man walked through the magnificent sanctuary of the pantheon.

Passing through the [Daeseongjunjeo (大聖竣貯)] barrier surrounded by tens of thousands of layers like flowing water we head to the deepest place of the pantheon.

Even in the splendid and majestic main castle only five people can enter the Mysterious Mirror.

The sanctuary created with all the power and capital of the church was not flashy or majestic.

On a small meadow where time seems to have stopped.

The vast thin veil swaying among the grass flutters quietly as if covering something.

A white-haired woman kneeling in front of a veil with the church’s emblem shining in gold with her hands clasped as if praying.

The apostle stopped behind the woman and spoke quietly.

“Izel is gone Seina. “The apostle technique has been sealed.”

“…Is that so?”

“In the end everything turned out as you said. Are you satisfied now?”

The apostle unable to withstand the gap between his body and mind soon goes crazy but the priestess cannot endure even that for long.

Most of the priests from generation to generation lived short lives and only two remained by the religious leader’s side until the end.

And then one of those two people just left their side.

The apostle who had been quietly gazing beyond the veil slowly knelt like her and bowed his head and spoke.

“We will soon make room for the three apostles. “They wanted an ending that made sense.”

“…Hughes you mean that kid?”

“Please don’t make the same choice as Ezel. “You know right?”

“….”

Seina did not answer. I just lifted my head slightly and looked beyond the veil.

The end of the veil sways as if swayed by a wind that is not blowing slightly revealing the scenery beyond the hidden grass field.

The appearance of something that looks like either a small chair or a shabby coffin.

The two people just stared at the scene in silence.

Their God who left without even making an indefinite promise as to when he would return.

* * *

Far Eastern branch of the church. The land running across the sea.

Dusk as the setting sun sets beneath the sea.

Lennok sat on the top spire of the huge Crystal Palace quietly turning his back to the sunset.

The sunken gaze is just looking at an object placed in the corner of the spire as if thinking deeply about something.

“You were here.”

A bronze-skinned shaman with a long plant in his mouth walks up the stairs.

“Why are you shaking in a place like this?”

Grinning Grisha leaned against the pillar of the spire a little away from Lennok.

“I have something to think about.”

“Were you looking at that?”

Grisha pointed to the object that Lennok had been looking at just a moment ago.

A mirror placed in the secret room where Amrita was hiding. Did you say that it is an object that reflects the same being as itself through existence projection?

Grisha looked at the mirror with interest and asked Lennok.

“What do you see?”

“nothing.”

Lennok answered with an expressionless face.

“I can’t see anything anymore.”

“….”

After the whole situation was over Lennok found the mirror that had been placed in the basement again. Nothing but Lennok was visible through the mirror anymore.

Through one coincidence a portion of the scenery Lennoc had hoped for was revealed. Does this mean that no more will be allowed?

“What do you see there?”

“princess.”

Grisha chuckled.

“I see a princess who reigned like a god in a remote part of the jungle.”

“….”

“I’ve never forgotten it but looking at it again it’s still so pathetic.”

She muttered while looking blankly at the scenery beyond the mirror.

“If I had realized sooner I wouldn’t have wasted so much time…”

A mirror that reflects people with the same projection rate.

Unlike Lennok do other people see themselves reflected in different time periods?

Although it was unknown what period of her past Grisha was facing she could guess that the memories were not very pleasant for her.

“What about Lapis?”

“You must be passed out by now.”

Grisha said calmly.

“It took quite a bit of effort to use the lighthouse keeper’s supernormal abilities. “It will be difficult to make public appearances for the time being.”

Lapard and Pio opened the island’s confrontation system through the control code given by Lennok and contacted Lapis to request support.

As soon as Lapis heard the request she sent Grisha and Geo Liza away.

What made it possible was a large-scale spatial transformation that utilized the lighthouse keeper’s supernormal abilities and Gapseon’s amulet skills which were expanded while building the second lighthouse to the limit.

The lighthouse keeper’s supernormal ability to jump through space by switching the phases of what is seen and what exists and the 8th level talisman that intervenes in space and time.

In such an urgent moment spatial transfer can only be used in areas that Lapis remembers.

The fact that she was able to successfully transfer space by pinpointing the sky above the Far East Island is proof in itself of how clever Lapis is and how much she overexerted herself.

“Once I dispose of the captured members of the church I plan to use this as the location of the third lighthouse.”

“Was it really like that?”

The reason Liza and other Western Continent watchers discovered this island in the first place was because the moving island in the Far East branch was a secret destination with extremely powerful power.

As long as the condition of being a secret area is met it is possible to transform this place from a religious temple into a lighthouse.

“Being able to move around the sea beyond the land where the coordinates are fixed is a huge geographical advantage in itself. “Of course from the perspective of constructing the lighthouse’s astronomical techniques.”

Grisha said pointing his finger.

“If we build the first lighthouse in the Dominion the second lighthouse in the valley and the third lighthouse on this island and adjust the positions between each lighthouse Lapis’ power will become much stronger.”

“I see….”

“We’ve come a long way. “Isn’t that right?”

She looked back at Lennok and smiled.

“It seems like it was just yesterday when we first met in the Dominion and started hitting each other.”

“Does a shaman who has lived as long as you feel that way?”

“It’s like that for all long-lived species. “I remember all the encounters and separations I have had throughout my life.”

Her smoky expression turned bitter.

“You can live a long time because you rarely forget. “In some ways this is a curse placed on a tribe like us.”

“….”

This is an answer from an interesting perspective.

Does this mean that because oblivion itself is a blessing bestowed upon life the rare tribe of Grishas actually lived for a long time?

The saying that he gained the strength to live a long life because he did not receive the blessing of being forgotten had something in common with the laws of Geass.

Grisha who had a gloomy expression for a moment took a deep sip of the grass and smiled faintly.

“Well that’s what I’m saying but I don’t remember everything.”

As we have lived for such a long time have we already become accustomed to brushing things off quickly?

Lennok thought like that and stared silently at the darkening sea.

I still remember what I saw in the mirror at that time.

What do the old guns and incomprehensible phrases lying around at my feet mean?

Without confirming it it would be difficult to uncover any more secrets about Lennok himself.

In order not to be shaken when faced with any truth Lennok had to prepare in advance now.

“We will now begin work on building the third lighthouse in earnest.”

Grisha looked away while holding the candle in his mouth.

“Evan what are you going to do?”

“…I’d like to help but I can’t stay long.”

Lennok said and quietly smoothed the inside of his coat.

Lennok quietly lowered his gaze as he felt the hard obsidian mask against his fingertips.

“There is still work to be done.”

The mid-term settlement of Pandemonium that the clown mentioned.

Did you say that there was an event where members who collected relics from the old world gathered together to settle the results of their operations?

There are less than three days left until the time I heard about from Hilea and Freya.

It was time to once again walk into the crowd of Pandemonium warriors.
