Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 532
by Jessie@AFNCC
The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 532
Dual identity (3)
Obtain Evan Bylan’s talent.
Before I could understand exactly what those words meant the door to the coffin opened wide and the figure inside was revealed.
A corpse with its entire body wrapped in thick bandages.
He was holding a huge mirror in both hands and stiffening his body towards this direction.
Mirror with bandaged corpse. The image of Lennok standing exactly in the direction the mirror faces.
At the same time that Lennok’s image was reflected in the mirror the image itself was distorted as if it were being sucked into a mummy.
[They said I wouldn’t be able to move and they were right.]
The appearance of a large man wearing a gas mask who carefully approaches Lennok’s side and observes his condition.
[Is it over once the image appears in the mirror?]
He carefully observes Lennok’s face in the mirror from the side and adjusts the filter of his gas mask.
[I tried it a little more hastily than I thought but at this rate I still achieved my goal-]
“Dark magic. “It is also a very powerful ritual warfare technique.”
[…!!!!]
“I was forced to combine the abilities of the mirror and the black crown at the same time but I remember this magic system.”
Lennok who seemed frozen in a daze opened his mouth and the giant took a step back his shoulders shaking.
Lennok’s expressionless face slowly turned his head and looked up at him.
An ancient warlock who stole the body of Jaun Odis in the Hanghasa Labyrinth and took over.
A master of the consciousness transfer technique that allows him to freely transfer his consciousness to multiple bodies.
Lennok was able to perceive the reverberations of that magic from the other side of the mirror.
“you. Do you know the name Ermont?”
[what…?]
Damn it…!!
As Lennok’s body trapped in the mirror image moves unknown magical power rising from all directions struggles to capture and hold down Lennok’s image.
However the stream of magical power that surged like that did not touch Lennok’s body or presence.

It faded away in vain as if I had never been able to hold on to even a single moment from the beginning.
Only then did the mirror’s power recognizing that it had been reflecting an illusion from the beginning that could not reach anything rebound and hit itself.
The small crack between the mirrors quickly grew in size and soon shattered and fell apart.
Wow!!
[This is ridiculous…!!]
The composure from before was gone and the gas mask was staring at the fragments of the shattered mirror with a look of panic.
“You probably didn’t intend to run far. “There may not have been an escape route at all.”
An aerial refueling station that succeeded in flying in outlying areas by applying some anti-gravity technology.
However because it has not yet been fully commercialized it loses balance and shakes quite a bit when it reaches this altitude.
In fact this is proof that there was no intention to escape far using this aircraft from the beginning.
“Wasn’t the purpose different from the beginning?”
Cheap profit…!!
The station which was gradually increasing its vibrations soon lost its balance and began to shake violently.
At the edge of the station which was losing its artificially created updraft and gradually lowering its altitude Lennok muttered with a thoughtful expression.
“If it was just a trap there’s no reason to tell me about this situation directly. “If you don’t step forward that’s the only reason you should get involved…”
Lennok’s eyes turned to the wide open black coffin.
“As expected there would be no story without securing that.”
At that moment a large fist landed on the spot where Lennok was standing and the solid steel plate of the station exploded.
Kwaaaang!!
The giant’s first strike suddenly exploded without any word or sign.
But Lennok so easily avoided it by blinking that he got back on his bike and just nodded.
“Let’s go back down to earth and talk.”
An aerial refueling station that suddenly loses its balance and tilts.
The moment when a huge aircraft capable of carrying dozens of people at once came under the influence of a magnetic storm.
All power sources required for flight are paralyzed and the plane falls straight to the ground.
The station which is spewing out smoke like crazy with its back against the night sky is falling toward the ground in a gentle parabola.
Kwaaaa!!
The night street was brightly colored as a pillar of white fire exploded.
The appearance of a giant struggling to raise his body from among the debris of the station which was quickly reduced to a lump of scrap metal.
I absentmindedly adjusted my gas mask and stared at the wizard standing unharmed in front of me.
[Whoa…!!]
“That gas mask.”
said Lennok who was tapping his cane on the black coffin that was wide open and overturned under his feet.
“It’s not just something to block the outside air.”
Lennok observed the man’s gas mask closely took out a cigar from his pocket and asked.
“There is no magical power mixed in the air coming out of the filter. Rather it can only be seen as a purpose to prevent substances flowing inside the gas mask from spilling out.”
Unidentifiable smoke flowing around the fleshy eyes of a man seen through goggles of a gas mask.

Lennok nodded lighting a candle as if he understood.
“If it was simply for the purpose of increasing magical power or doping there would be no reason to go that far… Is it a nerve stimulant?”
[….]
“If you are expanding your mana sensitivity by forcibly stimulating the central nervous system it is not impossible. Increasing the sensitivity means that the magical power reserve is not under control.”
Lennok nodded looking at the giant who did not respond.
“It would be understandable if he had taken magic power enhancement surgery equivalent to body modification or an elixir with similar side effects.”
[Hahaha!!]
The giant bursting into laughter walked forward and tugged on the collar of his shirt.
The man who ripped off the sleeves of both arms of his shirt with a light gesture responded by stroking his forearms.
[I heard that he is so poor that it is difficult to move around without a life support device but his good eye is as good as the rumors.]
“….”
[That is correct. The magic circuit was forcibly expanded through body modification surgery at Duris Workshop. This is because it is difficult to remain sane due to the expanded senses if neurostimulants are not used.]
Cheap!!
As the man smiled and slowly raised his magic power hot magic power began to flow and drip down from between his forearms where his sleeves had been torn off.
Ultra-high temperature heat created by forcibly applying changes in the properties of magical power.
The asphalt the man is standing on cannot overcome the heat and begins to rapidly melt.
[The main purpose of this operation is threefold.]
The man opened the filter of the gas mask released the nerve stimulant trapped inside and breathed in the outside air.
[Securing Evan Bylan’s new recruit safely. In case of interference secure the pursuer’s recruits with the prepared artifacts. And finally….]
Wow!!
At the same time dozens of superhumans appear in an instant from all over the streets and even a net of bright blue magic light embroiders the night sky.
[Kill and eliminate all witnesses.]
The man’s face reflected through the goggles inside the gas mask had an eerie smile on his face.
[I was just convinced by the response. I can’t use high-level magic.]
“….”
[What can be used are firearms and light auxiliary magic?]
Of course no matter how much it hurts and how much you struggle you must not let down your guard against a wizard who is above your castle level.
Therefore from the moment the station began to fall Geohan ordered to keep an eye on the landing site and spread a siege on all sides of the surrounding streets.
In addition the installation of a special magic interception system manufactured and sold directly by Achilles.
It is an incredibly powerful debuff that eats away your magic power just by standing still inside it.
It would be difficult for an injured wizard to endure even for a moment.
[Even if he was the best wizard in the shadows he would have had a hard time withstanding the battle with Madrich Onion. It’s not strange.]
Lennok didn’t say anything in response to the man’s leisurely answer.
He just tapped his fingers with an expression that made him think intently about something.
Puzzle!!
A short strand of electricity burst from Lennok’s fingertips at the same time as he flicked his other hand which was not holding the cane.
The static electricity that bounced up in the air seemed to immediately travel through my fingertips and soar up into the sky before disappearing without a trace.
A light movement that leaves no sign or trace of having done anything.
Gas Mask who was quietly watching the scene shook his head as if he felt sorry for him.
[You seem to have become a complete idiot. Is it best to emit a ray of static electricity?]
“….”
Tdu-duk!!
The man stepped forward lightly cracking his fingers then stretched out his arms and began to coil and gather a condensation of intense magical energy.
[I’m not interested in broken wizards. After killing it cleanly take the body and quickly-]
Kugoogung!!
At that moment the faint sound of thunder echoing across the night sky cut off Gas Mask’s words.
[…?]
Although it is dark because it is the middle of the night the sound is so clear that it is hard to believe that it is coming from a cloudless sky.
However there are still dark clouds in the night sky and only the faint light of stars obscured by smoke is still visible.
That moment when the man tilted his head and tried to raise his magic power again.
A huge blue light flashed across the intersection a few blocks away.
Paaaa!!
A loud noise resounds in a split second right after the light falls.
It didn’t stop there but from the far end of the intersection the road began to be covered in a dazzling blue glow.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo!!!!
A huge pillar of lightning striking the asphalt from across the intersection.
More than a dozen lightning bolts rained down around the area as if drawing a wall of lightning and quickly began to race in this direction.
A bombardment of lightning so overwhelming and bizarre that it is difficult to feel it even if you are seeing it with your own eyes.
[What is this…!!!]
“The magic interception system is destroyed!! “It is presumed that the reason for exceeding the horsepower allowance is due to exposure to external fire power!!”
“The estimated firepower level is above that of a castle rank…!! “If you don’t avoid it right now you’ll die!!”
Quaaaaaaa!!!!
There were no more screams.
The panicked superhumans wearing gas masks and suits were swept away by the sequential lightning strikes and disappeared.
It is difficult to maintain one’s sanity due to the overflowing heat and the roaring light that fills all five senses.
What does it mean that a single wizard could cast such a ridiculous bombardment without any chanting?
“How can you chant like this with your injured body…!!”
“No from the beginning I was planning on buying time for you too!!”
“I was deceived… Everyone should run away…!!”
Only then did the superhumans realize that Lennok had planned to kill them by burning them all at once and began to run away screaming loudly.
Kwaaaa!!!!
The waves of lightning that fall one after another from the other side of the street and swell the body only disappear into a handful of ashes.
Cheeeeeeeek!!
The ground covered with asphalt cannot withstand the heat and melts flowing like lava.
The hot wind rushing from all directions melted the windows of the building walls and even melted the rebar and cement exposing the inside.
A deformed sight as if the facades of dozens of buildings surrounding both sides of the street had been completely erased leaving the internal structures clearly exposed.
But Lennok simply stroked his chin as if he had no appreciation for what he had accomplished.
“It’s not very efficient compared to the chanting time. “Is there something wrong with using it?”
An old booklet was spread wide open on Lennok’s shoulder as he muttered like that dispersing an unknown magic power.
The magic book Fate Balance Extreme Arts 5 Acts was obtained as a result of information during the interim settlement of Pandemonium.
Lennok used the contents of the grimoire which is known to contain the dramatic meaning of five themes including the harmony of time and space in his lightning magic.
Among them the theme Lennok used for this lightning storm was ‘runaway.’
A new technology that combines the common magic [Thunder Calling] and the unique magic [White Rock] and then adds the theme of the 5 extreme techniques to inflate the scale like crazy.
However even though dozens of lightning strikes were struck at almost the same time at the intersection Lennok’s expression looked completely dissatisfied.
“I thought it was unlikely that we could easily reach it but…”
The 5 Extreme Rules are a grimoire that follows the laws of a lost world.
Therefore Lennok was hoping for a drastic improvement in the power and efficiency of magic by incorporating that principle.
When I actually used it the time it took to chant was longer than expected compared to its power.
It is not likely that these techniques can be used in actual combat where one must demonstrate one’s power.
“Kahaak haaa…!!”
A terrible scream echoing from the place where the lightning storm swept over.
The melted gas mask falls from the man’s face as he struggles to raise his mangled body.
The man’s face which had taken off his gas mask was covered with countless surgical marks and scars that made it difficult to find its original shape.
“Ooooooooo….”
The reverberation of a lightning strike penetrates into the smallest tissue unit of the body disconnecting all life in real time.
The body melted on the spot with an inexplicable groan a little more slowly than a gas mask.
-Half and half!! What kind of magic was used that paralyzed the entire power grid…!!
“Something happened.”
Only after the effects of the lightning strike have subsided do I reply to Jenny through the connected communication.
“I need someone to help me clean up after is that okay?”
-…I’m going to send an ambulance right away so don’t move and just stay there!!
Pop!!
“hmm….”
I feel like Jenny’s attitude toward him has changed slightly since the rumor spread that he was injured.
Rather than a trustworthy colleague…
-It’s like looking at fragile glass crafts.
“…be quiet.”
Turning his back to the corpse that had evaporated into a handful of blood Lennok turned his gaze towards the black coffin he was standing on.
Wow!!
He uses a magician to take out a bandaged corpse lying in a coffin and removes the bandages without hesitation.
The corpse of a young man appeared inside.
Although his body was still intact and not corrupted Lennok frowned when he saw it.
“….”
It’s a face I don’t remember.
If it resembled Evan’s face or body shape I would suspect it was a double or disguise.
The body that has been lying in the black coffin so far has no resemblance to the body type or appearance of Evan Bylan that Lennok had set.
What on earth did Antares and an unidentified organization see that made them so convinced that this person was Evan Bylon that they pursued and fled?
There was only one way to find out.
“Dabi.”
[Biometric data scanning is complete. We will compare the data on the city government network.]
Beep beep…!!
The information cross-verified through Lennok’s mobile phone is output in real time.
Surprisingly there was one matching result.
[Lowest security data level. I found a deleted code in the missing persons biometric data archive. Missing person ID 34aenj16. I will indicate the date of code deletion.]
Lennok who checked the date his ID was deleted from the database quickly recalled the memory of that time and stopped moving.
It was a time when Lennok had just entered the city and was busy creating a new identity.
There was a time when I went to an expert and asked for help to create an identity that I could use in Yangji not in my class.
“…I see.”
The method of identity forgery in this city is not to create a new identity.
Correcting personal information including the names of missing or unofficially deceased persons and colluding with local officials to update data.
The body currently lying in this black coffin is the missing person who was used as basic data when Lennok created Evan Bylan’s identity.
A ritual transfer technique that is activated by selecting an offering that has even the slightest conceptual similarity to Evan himself.
Among the magic techniques that Lennok knows the only two systems that pay attention to this type of design are witchcraft and black magic.
Among them the magic system and magic flow that remain in my memory.
What does it mean that the ritual warfare technique used by the warlock Ermont was intended to be cast against Van not Evan?
Someone is suspicious of Evan and Van’s relationship.
Antares had noticed the fact and was moving to track down the person behind it in a completely different place.
* * *
A huge cavity that sheds a pale glow with only dozens of candles illuminating the room.
A man sitting in the center of a huge drinking circle drawn with a black sticky liquid was biting his lip nervously.
“Why the fuck doesn’t it work…!!”
A street that was half-ruined in the shape of a series of lightning strikes.
The shape of a pitch-black coffin lying unscathed at the center of the explosion.
You can see someone opening the coffin and taking out the body but you can’t clearly see their face.
But even so the man was constantly muttering to himself as if he knew who the other person was.
“My guess is solid. Considering the time and circumstances at the time I can’t think of any other possibility than this…!!”
The man who had been chanting incessantly while quickly making hand signs twitched his shoulders when he heard the ringtone of his cell phone ringing behind him.
Without even thinking about looking at the ringing phone screen I force myself to keep my eyes on the drinking party with my shoulders shrunken.
“No no no… If I can’t verify this fact with the city council members I’m dead…!!”
“I guess so.”
A calm voice echoes from behind the man.
A chill ran down my spine and I could hear the man’s heart pounding.
“After securing a corpse that is treated conceptually the same as Evan Bylan the consciousness itself is transferred through magic. “It was a very interesting idea for something that was made hastily.”
“…How did we get here!!”
“Considering who the creator of that technique was it may not have been perfect in the end.”
The man who fell off the chair looked back with his eyes wide open.
A young man with long swept-back hair was looking down with a smile on his face.
Overwhelming magical power flowing from that body. A force so oppressive that even men with no talent for martial arts can feel it.
Antares said as he looked at the man’s face which turned pale in an instant.
“It’s a combination of magical concepts and black magic… It would have been an impossible attempt if it weren’t for the power of the Black Crown but the reason it was possible was because you obtained the magic of a very old family.”
The man’s face instantly darkened as Antares’ words cut to the core without hesitation.
“Please save me… please…”
“But when you look into the darkest abyss of black magic you must also consider the opposite. That’s why black magic…”
Antares who was looking at the man who was just begging for his life without saying anything positive or negative laughed.
“You definitely need a teacher or student who can act as a mirror.”
“What on earth is that…!! “Wow…!!”
At that moment the man’s eyes rolled over several times on the spot and in an instant the pupils themselves began to turn pitch black.
Immediately afterward a man stands up from his seat with pitch-black magic emanating from his entire body.
The expression on his face suddenly became cold as if he had frozen.
“I didn’t know that a failed prophet would call me.”
“….”
“It’s meaningless. “You know right?”
“yes.”
Antares laughed.
“But it was necessary at least once. “Don’t you think so King Myeong?”
