The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 592
Spirit growth promotion ritual (3)
“Assistant Professor Evan!!”
“I really thought I was going to die…!!”
“But he wouldn’t have died.”
Lennok said so and quickly opened the train door by pressing the door opening button on the instrument panel.
As they boarded the train and glanced at the students spread out on the seats Lennok quickly explained to Cassia how to operate the train’s instrument panel.
“If you press this button and pull the lever automatic operation is possible with the speed fixed. To apply the brakes use this button….”
“Now wait a minute.”
Cassia interrupted Lennok while pressing his injured shoulder.
“So you’re telling me how to operate the train…?”
“Assistant Professor Cassia please take this train and escape out of the school.”
At the same time as Lennok said that another train car slowly rolled down the opposite rail to reveal itself.
Lennok smiled as he gestured backwards to the newly appeared train.
“I plan to ride that and go deeper into the university.”
“….”
Cassia’s mouth widened when she finally realized how Lennok had planned to evacuate the students and solve the problem of the Demon God Palace at the same time.
“You’re crazy. “What does the word ‘resolve’ really mean…?”
“Anyway unless someone directly attracts the attention of the Ghost God Palace this train will not be able to escape out of the school normally.”
Lennok said and winked at Mila who was fiddling with a shotgun outside.
“The two of us will hold out while attracting enough attention so Assistant Professor Cassia please go outside and ask for outside help.”
“….”
Cassia bit her lip and nodded her head with a depressed expression.
“all right. “Now if you insist unnecessarily that I will be of help the problem will not be resolved.”
“I thought you would understand.”
“But promise me you’ll only focus on things that occupy your time.”

Cassia shook her head with a stern expression.
“This isn’t Evan’s fault. Even if something goes wrong with the Dean you must put your own safety first. all right?”
“….”
“If the director or dean were standing here I would have said the same thing.”
“All right.”
Lennok nodded and got out of the train compartment.
As Cassia presses the button on the instrument panel with a bleary look on her face the train begins to move slowly.
The students who were leaning in the train compartment with an expression of relief stood up in shock when they saw Lennok standing outside the window.
“Assistant Professor Cho!! Where are you going!!”
“We should run away together!!”
“We have to stop the train…!!”
“Dabi!!!”
“I have work to do so I will follow along slowly.”
Lennok smiled and waved.
“I’m fine so everyone run away first.”
Around Lennok the spider spirits that were lying on their stomachs rise up one by one and begin to approach Lennok.
Spider spirits that have lost their owners run rampant throughout the dark terminal station seeking out living creatures.
It was obvious how Evan who was left among the spiders on the moving train would be viewed by the students.
“Oh no. “If I stay here I’m sure…!!”
“Please come with me!!”
The sight of students anxiously knocking on the window with reddened eyes.
Mila who was unblocking the shotgun’s muzzle next to her saw the students and laughed.
“You have good disciples. “I know how to cry.”
“It only makes me feel embarrassed when I meet them in life.”
“Oh are you sure you can survive?”
“Rather than certainty….”
Lennok laughed. It was pointless to even explain him in detail.
“Well everyone has their own circumstances.”
Mila nodded as she looked at Lennok who was speechless and turned her head while loading the shotgun.
“I don’t know how on earth I got an exclusive security contract from our leader but I’ll try my best first.”
Milla grinning raised her magic power and held out her shotgun towards the approaching spiders.
Slam!!
“Let’s do our best to keep each other from dying.”
“Oh you don’t have to do that.”
“what?”
Lennok said with a smile as he grabbed Dabi who jumped up out of the air and hugged him.
“I plan to handle it a little faster from now on.”

[Partial development of spirit hierarchy common magic]
I’m so sorry!!!
At that moment a huge thunderbolt erupted from Dabi’s body and at the same time three fox fires began to appear next to the spirit.
Amazing emotions spread across the faces of the students as they watched the dazzling light of lightning through the window of the train moving away.
“Tickle your stomach.”
Quaaaaaaa!!
As if lighting up a dark station the spinning fox fire chanted different lightning magic spells and reduced all the approaching spiders to ashes.
[Keek!!]
[Hehe eh!!]
The appearance of a spider spirit screaming in pain and instantly turning into a pile of ashes.
Mila looked back at Lennok with an expression of bewilderment.
“…You gave such a cute technique name to such an evil magic?”
“It’s Dabi’s personal preference.”
Cassia shook her head at Lennok who passed the blame to Dabi without even blinking an eye.
Among the spiders the three-pronged foxfire scattered colorful electric lights and dozens of electric charges scattered and gathered together spraying a whirlwind of lightning into the underground terminal.
The shape of a fox cub that not only burns the approaching spiders but also actively penetrates and breaks through the spirits.
[Tot tot tot!!]
Every time Dabi jumps lightly stepping on the slippery bodies of the spiders with the fox fire spinning around him.
A piece of bright blue thunderbolt bloomed from where he jumped fiercely digging into the spider spirit’s body and exploding.
Burbububbang!!
The appearance of a spider spirit being crushed and destroyed while screaming bizarrely from all directions.
Lennok explained without missing a beat.
“They say that’s a digestive jump after overeating.”
“…Okay can you stop explaining?”
A beautiful fantasy as if blue flowers are blooming all over the underground terminal with Dabi lightly landing on the railway leaving them behind.
The students who were watching the battle between the spirits on the train opened their mouths in bewilderment at the overwhelming fighting power.
Kugoogung!!
Meanwhile the train slowly began to move toward the other side of the tracks as if Cassia had become accustomed to the train dashboard.
[Kiek?]
The sudden movement caused the spiders who had been concentrating on killing Dabi and Lennok to turn their heads and their green eyes glowed brightly.
“omg…!!”
“Looking this way.”
The students turned pale and took a step back as they looked at the animal’s blatant eyes filled with sticky murder.
The spider spirits quickly stretched their webs under the train wheels and grabbed hold of the train car.
Good!!
The appearance of spiders spraying spider webs on all sides of the terminal pillar walls and then gliding over them instantly surrounding the train compartment.
Did trying to escape by moving the train actually become poison?
The moment when the undergraduate students who sensed that battle would be unavoidable somehow raised their magic power and tried to fight back with elemental magic.
Bang bang!!
Lennok cut off the spider web holding the train wheel with the automatic pistol he was holding.
When the spider web that had become entangled between the wheels and stopped the train was cut the train started moving again and moving forward.
[Queeeee!!]
The shape of greedy spiders that wrap their bodies around the train and try to capture it and eat it when shooting out spider webs does not work.
Seeing spiders flashing their teeth and multiple eyes outside the window students grit their teeth and try to prevent the window from breaking.
However unable to withstand the spider spirit’s grip the window broke and the body fluid even melted the glass shards.
Cheap!!
[Kihehehe!!]
Dozens of spider spirits board a moving train screaming like laughter.
At the train terminal station he doesn’t even pay attention to Lennok who is holding a gun and focuses only on the students.
Lennok’s eyes sank as he immediately recognized that appearance.
‘You have no intention of dealing with me. Are they strictly targeting prey?’
The dozens of spider spirits that now fill this station are far from spirits that were simply summoned through a contract with a magician.
The only spirit that made a contract with the shaman of the Ghost God Palace was a tank spider spirit that was large enough to fill a railroad track.
The spider spirits that run amok now are like by-products of the thoughts created by the tank spider that died after being hit by a train.
In terms of its essence it can be said to be similar to Dabi’s newly created fox fire.
However the spirit’s mental form which has lost both the magician and the main body is nothing more than a being that completely relies on instinct and disappears while satisfying its desires.
That’s why he ignores Darby’s owner Lennok and targets the students on the train who seem relatively vulnerable.
Taaaang!!
Mila who fired the shotgun and exploded the body of the spider spirit with a shock wave asked urgently.
“Shouldn’t we stop that first?!”
“It’ll be okay.”
Lennok who was holding Mila’s shoulder as she was about to jump down the railroad glanced back and said.
“It was annoying but I didn’t hate it.”
“…who are you talking about?”
The answer to Mila’s question came quickly.
A bright blue flash of lightning came out among the corpses of spiders swarming in the terminal and raced diagonally along the wall.
Dabi’s new model which flashes a dazzling electric light while bouncing on all fours catches up to the train’s speed in an instant changes direction as if bouncing and enters the train in an instant.
Kwaaaang!!
The image of Dabi landing proudly through the roof of the train like a superhero.
The moment when the eyes of the students surprised by the swirl of electricity flashing from his body focused on the fox spirit.
Dabi and the three-pronged fox fire rotating around his body chanted the same magic at the same time and exploded.
Lightning system common magic
Resonant expansion triple window
[Ioniq Bounce]
Weeeeeeeee!!!
Three huge spheres of electricity floating in the air rotate in place condensing lightning and scattering it in all directions.
The electricity bounced off the walls and floor of the train dozens of times exquisitely avoiding the students and exploding the head and eyeballs of the spider spirit.
Bump bub bung!!
On that spot dozens of spider spirits that were clinging to the train evaporated and disappeared.
“I lived.”
“Speed… is back…”
The train which was tied up in a spider web and unable to speed up started rolling and moving away from the terminal.
Perhaps it was only then that the reality of the current situation began to sink in and someone among the students who was holding on to the broken door from the spider spirit’s attack muttered.
“You saved us again….”
[….]
Dabi looked at the students blankly then walked on all fours without saying anything and stood at the end of the train.
If you stay on the train moving away like this you and Lennok will end up separated.
“…Dabi!”
Dabi was about to jump down and go back to Lennok but someone carefully stroked the spirit’s tail behind him.
The students covered in dust from the intense battle and flight were smiling at Dabi.
“I’ll definitely see you in the classroom next time. “Okay?”
[…joy.]
Instead of answering that question Dabi lightly waggled his tail and poked the students’ foreheads.
The moment the students stepped back giggling at the feeling tickling their foreheads Dabi’s appearance had disappeared.
* * *
While waiting for Dabi who had left the train earlier to return Lennok focused on cleaning up the cobwebs that had stuck to the terminal with Mila.
Although most of the corpses of the spider spirits were extinguished and disappeared spider webs which were a by-product of intent remained.
“Evan look at this. “It’s sticky.”
A smiling Mila stretching a spider web with one hand.
Lennok who was burning the cobwebs clinging to the train with a lighter shook his head.
“What are you doing not even a child?”
“Wouldn’t kids rather like this situation? “It’s fun.”
“I don’t think any child would like spiders the size of people…”
Lennok replied and secretly checked the reverberation of the magic power remaining in the spider web without Mila knowing.
‘The remaining magic power is activated to an excessive extent…’
A tank spider that far exceeded the size of a typical spirit. Dozens of spider spirits came out one after another as if they were giving birth to a spider.
It was quickly dealt with by crushing the whole train but isn’t the spirit too powerful for a single shaman to control?
‘But again it’s weak to be a spirit that grew up by eating a wizard… Has it not started the ritual properly yet?’
The shamans who invaded the Department of Elemental Studies captured and imprisoned the students probably in preparation for processing them as offerings.
If a real growth promotion ritual had begun and the spirits possessed by the shamans of the Ghost God Palace had begun to grow it would not have ended like this.
The two soon succeeded in clearing away the cobwebs around the train and moving the train.
Slam!! Woooo!!
“The instrument panel is working well. Fortunately it appears that the spider webs did not spread into the engine room.”
“Good. “So are you going to go kill that shaman leader right now?”
“What are you talking about?”
Lennok asked a question as Mila said as if it was obvious that she wanted to go deal with the head of the Demon God Palace.
“There is no way an ordinary researcher like me could deal with a high-ranking shaman from such a vicious criminal organization right?”
“….”
Despite Mila’s somewhat disgruntled gaze Lennok laid down a steel plate and worked hard to appeal his situation.
“Somehow my spirit awakened and showed good results but of course such dangerous criminals should be left to the city government’s security organization.”
“I’m just an ordinary researcher… so what do you know? “My job was to protect my younger teacher.”
Mila nodded with a sour expression and then asked as if she had remembered something.
“No if that were the case wouldn’t it have been better to just run away with the students instead of staying here?”
“Oh that’s impossible again.”
Lennok shook his head.
“There is no way the shamans of the Ghost God Palace will allow the students to escape unless someone draws their attention from here.”
“….”
“Well it’s clear that this is the most reasonable choice. “Other students have not yet learned how to properly protect themselves.”
Lennok said as he caught Dabi who ran up the wall of the station leaving Mila silent.
“Once the matter is resolved I will have to propose a proposal to advance the combat magic mastery curriculum to the second grade and below… of course if the administrative office staff are still alive.”
Crucially only by doing this can the burden be appropriately relieved without sacrificing other students.
No matter how excellent Lennok is as an elementalist it would be very difficult to fight and win against shamans with dozens of students.
Even if they win the fight in the process it is inevitable that doubts will be placed on Lennok and Dabi’s abilities.
Rather it would be better to evacuate the students safely and in the process leave Lennok and Mila to deal with the shamans of the Mysterious Palace.
“…Okay I know what our teacher thinks. “But it’s not going to be enough to attract attention.”
Mila asked flopping down on the small chair behind Lennok.
“It would be difficult to keep other shamans on our side as long as they don’t attack us with the intention of killing the head of the Ghost God Palace.”
“As I said there is no need to deal directly with the head of the Demon God Palace. “I’m not even sure I can do that.”
As Lennok said this he manipulated the instrument panel and started moving the train slowly.
A train that starts moving quickly off the tracks leaves the station and speeds up.
Let’s go!!
With the refreshing noise of train wheels scraping between tracks the surrounding scenery changes from dots to lines.
Lennok who fixed the train’s speed by moving the fixture on the instrument panel looked back at Mila and nodded.
“So from now on we will go to rescue the Dean.”
“…what?”
Looking at Mila’s blank expression Lennok got up from his seat and began searching through the shelves inside the train’s driver’s line.
“It is clear that the dean’s spirit was in the school when he asked for help. “Unless special abilities or conditions are met spirits and magicians cannot be far apart.”
Lennok who quickly found disposable coffee pots cups and other household items belatedly responded to Mila’s words.
“So even though the Dean himself is in the school he is in such a difficult situation that he cannot provide any help to the current situation. “If you combine this with the shamans of the Ghost God Palace won’t you come up with an answer?”
Only then did Mila’s expression change slightly as she understood the meaning of what Lennok said.
“The shamans of the Ghost God Palace are holding Dean Garteanon hostage?”
“To be precise the plan is to use it as a top-class offering in a spirit growth promotion ritual.”
Lennok said as he quickly brewed two cups of coffee and offered them to Mila.
“Didn’t you say that we would gradually increase the purity of consciousness starting with low-level wizards?”
“…”
“In other words a high-ranking wizard is also needed to properly complete the ritual.”
“Dean Gartheanon is being held hostage to become a ritual offering… Certainly if not this situation cannot be explained.”
After Mila said that she tilted her head.
“But I know that the Dean himself is a level 7 Aspect Wizard and a veteran who participated in the Great War. Are you saying he was taken hostage?”
“I don’t think the Dean himself had any intention of being caught so easily.”
Lennok mumbled and sipped his coffee.
“I think he may have been unintentionally subdued by holding students and school officials hostage.”
The dean he knew would not have been obediently taken hostage even after being aware of the existence of shamans.
However it is not difficult to understand if he was forced to become an offering due to various factors that interfered with the course of battle.
In the process Lennok sensed that the dean had sent a spirit to ask for help and planned to go to rescue him.
“As Mila said Dean Syolus is an excellent level 7 Aspect Magician and is also an experienced superhuman who has lived for a long time.”
Lennok shrugged his shoulders looking at Mila’s still confused face.
“So if we succeed in rescuing the Dean we won’t have to worry about who will deal with the head of the Demon God Palace right?”
“I see… I understand.”
Mila’s expression was filled with admiration as she understood why Lennok did not pay much attention to the head of the Demon God Palace.
“It means that we will save the dean and leave the head of the Ghost God Palace to that old man. “Are you a genius in mercenary skills?”
From the beginning Lennok had no intention of solving this case alone.
If you take on the Ghost God Palace alone as Evan Bylan you will only attract negative attention.
We need someone who will look for clues to solve the problem and come to the forefront instead of Lennok and take responsibility to conclude the matter.
Lennok knew early on that the only person who could accomplish the task was Dean Siolus Garteanon.
“I think I know roughly where the dean is.”
Lennoc increased the speed by manipulating the train’s instrument panel and unfolded the map.
“Now I think I can see where to resolve and end this situation.”
