Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 563



The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 563

The one who closes the world (1)

Kaise’s voice echoes in a vague sense somewhere.

Keying!!

“I thought you would come quickly.”

“….”

“The only places where a huge amount of thermal power can be collected to power the fixed equipment is the underground power room and the thermal power outlet on the top floor.”

Voices and dialogues that I have already heard before.

“It was difficult to connect the lines and maintain operation but it is not impossible if the internal facilities of the power plant are properly operated.”

His familiar words ring in my ears as if I can somehow guess what he will say next.

Kaise’s technique of using language as a trigger to reverse perceived time and cast an illusion while time is repeating itself.

“It’s strange. “The particle power plant is this noisy and falling apart and no one wants to come back.”

“….”

“I can’t even contact my colleagues on the front lines. There is no sign or trace of anything. “I thought it was simply due to an abnormal phenomenon inside the power plant but in fact…”

Originally the conversation should have ended here and turned to the topic of Oliveira.

However what came out of Kaise’s mouth were completely different words from before.

“Actually it was just to test you.”

“….”

Lennok did not answer.

Even after hearing those words he just looked at Kaise with an expressionless face and a somewhat dazed expression.

Kaise looked at Lennok’s face for a while and then lowered his head with an expression of disappointment.

“I guess we can’t escape the manipulation of perceived time… It was just as I thought.”

Despite his words Kaise slowly raised his hand and touched Lennok’s forehead with a look of disappointment on his face.

“If you can’t escape from the magic of Reverse Heaven right away that’s okay. “From now on I will turn your memories backwards and check what happened so far… so that’s enough.”

However contrary to what Kaise said he hesitated to increase his magic power for a long time.

As if he were someone who would never be able to go back after doing something like this.

As if he had made up his mind Kaise gritted his teeth and drew up his magic power and put it into Lennok’s mind.

I began to peek into Lennok’s memories through the magic of reversing perceived time.

Keyee!!

A suggestion of innocence that recommended entering the closed area. The danger of radiation exposure. The phenomenon of space-time gap encountered after entering the area by climbing the wall of water.

And the vast and developed Balkan landscape that was far removed from Kaise’s own memories.

Every time he checks Lennok’s memory Kaise’s complexion becomes a little pale and his hand trembles slightly after confirming the truth.

[You said Kaise’s granddaughter was running a bar alone in a back alley right?]

[They say he’s doing a pretty good job as a broker.]

“…!!!”

Kaise with a stiff complexion stops unable to get past that keyword.

Like a person faced with a truth he does not want to face he hesitates to hear the full outcome that he and his relatives will face.

But he recalled Lennoc gritting his teeth and walking into the bar.

A black-haired woman standing with her back turned inside the bar. The somewhat curly hair and crooked posture resemble Kaise himself.

The moment when she noticed Lennok’s entrance and exit she turned her back and her face was peeking through her hair.

“Until there.”

chin!!

Lennok grabbed Kaise’s wrist and lifted it up.

“You know it won’t help you any more than that.”

“….”

Kaise who was staring blankly at Lennok with a breathless face shook off the wrist that was being held and stepped back.

He wiped his sweaty forehead and then suddenly realized Lennok’s reaction and raised his gaze.

“Manipulation of perceived time… I guess it wasn’t caught from the beginning. “Then what are your memories…?”

“I just thought it would be better to confirm it if I could see it in person.”

Lennok answered angrily crossing his arms.

“Me too.”

An illusion of reversing perceived time that uses a specific word as a trigger.

Lennok was not caught in Kaise’s magic which even Illya could not resist and was swept away by.

However even so in order to listen to what Kaise wanted to confirm he was just pulling out the memories and showing them to him.

I didn’t know that in the meantime Kaise would try to find clues and confirm that she was his granddaughter.

“….”

Kaise hesitated for a long time after hearing the answer. As if he was having trouble deciding what to ask.

The current goal is to confirm the existence of the granddaughter seen in Lennok’s memories and Lennok’s capabilities.

The choice was decided from the beginning.

Kaise asked closing his eyes once.

“You were able to resist the magical power of the heavenly sky. “Do you yourself know why?”

“I wasn’t resisting your magic power.”

Lennok answered calmly.

“If that were the case I wouldn’t have shown you my memories in the first place.”

“then…?”

“Even if time changes I myself do not change. “That’s it.”

No matter how much time is turned or manipulated Lennok will not go back the way he once did.

The strong ego established as the essence of transcendent talent and the identity completed through self-contemplation never waver in the flow of time and only move forward.

Since he first opened his eyes in this world Lennok has not changed for a single moment.

If he is aware of that Lennok can stand still.

You can maintain your balance even among the constantly shaking space-time and world lines.

This is what it means to exist as Lennok himself passing through countless selves to remain unwavering even while holding within him the image of a kaleidoscope that illuminates possibilities.

“You want to remain completely yourself even at the end of time and space… That’s great.”

Kaise who understood the meaning of the answer let out a faint exclamation.

“You are already qualified. All you have to do is bring out the answer within you.”

“….”

“good. That’s it. Aside from everything else that was the one thing I wanted to confirm with you. “The limit of your mental strength and how much you can withstand the magical power flow of the heavens will ultimately determine the success or failure of this incident.”

After saying that Kaise turned his back without hesitation and stood in front of the fixture.

His eyes which had been shaken by the presence of his granddaughter had calmed down.

“Let me explain. “Why did I have to tell you about this whole situation directly?”

* * *

“I realized this right after I finished my research with you and started to produce the scattering phenomenon through the fixture.”

Coo coo coo!!!

Kaise standing in front of the huge pillar of light looked back at Lennok and said.

Kaise’s eyes looked somewhat sad.

“Originally space-time fixation research should not have been completed at this point. “That was the reason for the sense of discomfort I felt throughout the research.”

“….”

“Because I originally failed to research in history my future self chose this moment and fixed the time and space. “I realized it too late.”

“You chose this moment because you failed?”

“The reason why research that should have failed was successful is because future possibilities were mixed in while you helped me with the research.”

“….”

“I was unable to achieve results because I could not create anything through the scattering phenomenon but I was confident after reviewing the results of the completed research.”

Kaise said and tapped the fixture.

“The moment this is completed the world will fall once again.”

“…Corruption?”

The moment Lennok frowned at that unfamiliar word Kaise smiled bitterly.

“Perhaps my future self would have recognized this fact and left this unfinished on purpose. “You came into contact with the results that were neglected like that and that’s why the research was completed so quickly that it was strange.”

“….”

“Originally it would have been a future in which I did not even realize this fact at this point…”

Kaise muttered like that crossing his arms and raising his gaze.

“Space-time fixation research was a test bed for the success of the project and a vessel to contain my own ideals… but not anymore.”

Despite his weak tone Kaise spoke with unwavering eyes.

“This space is already being used as a vessel to contain someone else’s dreams not mine.”

“It’s a vessel that holds dreams….”

“The reason that past beings including me and Oliveira are able to contemplate themselves is because this space is not simply an isolated space and time but an area that has been altered with a specific intention.”

Lennok easily understood what those words meant.

A time and space separated from the past.

However the characters from the past who remain here think and judge as if they are truly alive and even retain their original powers.

This is possible because this space is not simply a result of a space-time gap but is still a part of reality realized by someone’s will.

Kaise was expressing the phenomenon itself as a ‘dream’.

And if there is a being who can build and maintain this space and time just by dreaming who would that be?

The answer was already decided.

“Are you saying that what is happening in the closed area… is related to foreign media?”

“At least someone with power and status comparable to them.”

After saying that Kaise was silent for a long time.

As if he is hesitating to say something as if he is someone who will never be able to take back if he says these words now.

“If a being comparable to a foreign body is dreaming an endless dream here and if that is why we exist today then I… must stop it.”

Kaise spoke as if to cut off the few remaining regrets.

“I didn’t continue research for this. Regardless of the success or failure of the work it is meaningless if the process itself is wrong. “Space-time fixed research is a failure.”

Results that do not correspond to the purpose are ultimately meaningless regardless of success.

“I know why you came into this space and time looking for us. “Isn’t this because our existence now poses a real threat in reality?”

“….”

“Considering the radiation exposure phenomenon that occurred when conducting space-time fixation research the most likely harmful effect is a large-scale magical particle collapse….”

Kaise laughed weakly.

“It would be a special disaster that would put tens of millions of people’s lives at risk.”

With just a brief glimpse into the memories Lennok had conveyed Kaise understood everything.

The destination of research that went against the original intention. A disaster called the radiation exposure phenomenon was born from that waste.

Even who should choose what to resolve this situation.

“Even if I was the one abandoned in the failed timeline and abandoned space-time still… I promised. “I made an oath when I decided to move forward without leaving behind all the failures in the world.”

Kaise muttered in pain.

“I will accept it even if I end up failing and being discarded…”

“….”

Lennok was speechless and listened to him quietly.

Kaise knew that he was a being from the past but he was saying that he would erase this timeline.

In other words it is a declaration close to suicide that one will create the end of construction with one’s own hands and accept the result.

Furthermore doesn’t that mean that he will bury even his colleagues who were with him at the end?

“The reason I need someone with the ability to resist the magical power of the reverse sky is because I can no longer completely stop the operation of the space-time fixing device on my own. “I needed someone to stop the device while I was working on it.”

said Kaise who started walking around the fixture.

“Oliviera has already used my serum several times and she is also part of this space so it is impossible. As the only magician and outsider in your group I had no choice but to take a chance. But it was impossible to explain this fact to someone else and ask for their understanding…”

Kaise said that and knocked on the instrument panel of the fixture without hesitation.

bang!!

At the same time the levers on all sides of the instrument panel began to rotate dizzyingly changing the output and direction of the device.

The huge pillar of light split in all directions and a path was opened at the end large enough for one person to pass through.

Kuoooo!!

“This is the conclusion I came to.”

Kaise stood in front of the road without hesitation and looked back at Lennok.

“I end this dream and close the failed world line once and for all. “What about you?”

“….”

Only then did Lennoc feel like he could understand to some extent what kind of person Kaise was.

Kaise Bajur is by no means a good person nor is he a seeker who sacrifices everything for the salvation of the world.

If he had been a human full of altruism in the first place he would not have been reigning as the king of the underworld in Balkan near this magical world.

In fact every decision he made was infinitely close to the right answer but the process of getting there was extremely twisted.

He was just a human struggling to find answers in a dying world.

I still don’t think that’s the right way to do it.

However if that is the way of existence that fully recognizes and accepts its own ending…

“Just stopping the fixture completely will not be enough.”

Lennok who had been silent spoke.

“If the device completely stops working and we don’t find the root of the problem and solve it it won’t stop forever.”

Slam!!

Lennok holding the instrument panel of the fixture pushed the lever upward.

Kugu Palace…!!

Some of the surrounding supports collapsed widening the path for Kaise to pass through.

“half.”

“It doesn’t matter how your way ends.”

Lennok answered while meeting Kaise’s gaze who was quietly looking down at him.

“I will find the answer that I think is right. “You do whatever you want.”

“….”

Ultimately what happened in this space and time is a story that started decades ago and ended long ago.

No matter how Lennoc changes his fate here in the end he is just a bystander.

Without the cooperation of Kaise who started and planned all of this this situation cannot be brought to an end.

Lennok had vaguely sensed this fact from the moment he heard Kaise’s name.

“Let me help you finish your dream. “I will assist you so let’s get started.”
