    The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 593

    Form Change (1)

    He is entrusted with the task of rescuing Dean Sciolus Garteanon and dealing with the head of the Demon God Palace.

    The best way to maintain his position as a university assistant professor while minimizing the risk that Evan’s personal life may be in trouble.

    No matter how this situation ends it will be impossible to stop change from coming to Labatenon University.

    Since he is in the field shouldn’t he try to control the direction of change as much as possible according to Lennok’s own will?

    “If the shamans are thinking of you as a ritual offering rather than taking the dean hostage it may already be too late.”

    Mila said.

    “You said the dean noticed something wrong a few days ago right? Even if the situation changes suddenly overnight it means that preparations have already been made on the other side.”

    “It was said that for the growth promotion ritual human sacrifices were made sequentially starting from the lower-level wizards.”

    Lennok answered as he manipulated the instrument panel to increase the speed of the train.

    “As the Dean is a level 7 Aspect Wizard it is highly likely that he will survive until the latter part of the ceremony.”

    “Isn’t it possible to change the order of offerings?”

    “no. “Starting the ritual from a lower level is itself a process of sequentially increasing the capacity limit of the drinking technique.”

    Lennok shook his head in response to Mila’s question.

    “Considering that the offering must be kept in good condition right before the ceremony the dean’s health condition itself is probably not that serious.”

    “I see….”

    “Of course we have to rescue the Dean when he is in good condition. If not we must find a way to restore him.”

    “There is a university ward behind the main school building. “If there is a useful healing artifact or a living doctor it might be able to help restore the Dean.”

    “Wait a minute even if that’s true we don’t even know where the Dean is being held…”

    Mila said that and then slowly stopped speaking like a broken machine.

    It was too late for her to realize that there was another voice standing between her and Lennok.

    Priscilla suddenly appears from behind the driver’s seat holding a map and looking lost in thought.

    Mila’s mouth opened wide as if it would hit the floor on the spot when she saw her sister’s face.

    “squill? “What are you doing here?”

    “Of course I was waiting at the terminal to help the assistant professor.”

    Priscilla responded without raising an eyebrow.

    Instead she approached Lennok and showed him a map carefully pointing out the direction the train would take.

    “There is no space to confine anyone in the western district where the restaurant district is located. Most buildings are open. “It would be okay to exclude this person from being a candidate.”

    “In which southern district are the dormitories located?”

    “There are quite a few small warehouses or rooms but on the other hand there won’t be enough space to hold the ceremony.”

    “In that case we should focus our search on the eastern district where the main building is located and the northern district where the libraries are located.”

    “I agree.”

    “Wait a minute!!”

    Mila who was looking at Lennok and Priscilla quickly exchanging opinions jumped up from her seat and waved her arms.

    “No teacher!! “Why is my little brother here now?!”

    “I’m not sure.”

    Lennok looked at Priscilla with a calm expression and asked back.

    “Why are you here?”

    “Well you don’t know much about the school’s internal structure assistant professor.”

    Priscilla also answered with a nonchalant expression.

    “Of course my sister doesn’t know anything about the facilities inside Labatenon University so shouldn’t someone guide you two?”

    Of course it’s not that Lennok didn’t know that Priscilla secretly boarded this train.

    I just thought it would be better to take Priscilla with me rather than waste time fighting her off and trying to get her to run away.

    “….”

    Mila who was staring blankly at Priscilla at a loss for words soon sat down and tilted her head back in a daze.

    “I don’t know. “I know that because when the operation begins we will knock them out and hide them before leaving.”

    “Sister!”

    “I also don’t want Priscilla to be in danger on the field.”

    Lennok answered.

    “Still it’s safest to move together so let’s try to resolve it without directly involving the situation.”

    “Phew… teacher. “My younger brother has no talent for fighting at all.”

    Millie sighed and shook her head.

    “It’s true that your brain works better than mine but honestly it’ll only get in the way when we’re fighting.”

    “Sister I will be in the third year soon.”

    Priscilla answered with a calm expression.

    “I also completed the combat magic practical course half a semester early. “I know how to fight.”

    “You know if you should fight?”

    Mila who followed Priscilla’s words exactly turned her head.

    “You’re wrong Sheila. How many times have you told me? “You don’t have to fight you have to kill.”

    “….”

    “Fight and win. Win without getting hurt. Subdue without killing. Do you know how empty a promise these words are to a battle wizard fighting in the field?”

    Mila said pointing her finger at Lennok.

    “Unless you are this talented a genius you shouldn’t say things like that. “Why?”

    Priscilla’s shoulders trembled as she looked at her with a cold gaze.

    “The comrades who believed those words and took action together are destined to die together in the end.”

    “….”

    Obviously it is not a ghost story heard from others but a story about the reality Mila herself experienced.

    There is no need to tell her how many battles she had to go through before she became a member of the Antares mercenary group.

    It is natural that Priscilla’s action to hastily participate in the actual battle may seem impatient to Mila.

    However Lennok moderated the fight between the two sisters before it became more intense.

    Dabi who had been dozing off with his coils curled up on Lennok’s head suddenly placed himself on Mila’s face.

    “Bubbbbbb!!”

    […!!!]

    Lennok shook his head as Mila and Dabi both jumped in their seats in shock.

    “Thank you for the compliment but I don’t have anything to give you if you give it too much gold.”

    “under….”

    “I will help you with career counseling later so let’s focus on the current situation for now.”

    As Lennok speaks sunlight pours into the train car that comes out of the underground tunnel.

    As it crosses five stations located inside the university the railway is being laid not only underground but also above ground.

    “I just passed by the western district where the dormitory is located. 3 minutes to the northern district where the Central Library is located…!!”

    Seeing Priscilla quickly come to her senses and unfold the map Mila sighed and stood up.

    “Teacher that promise to help my younger brother with career counseling. “You will have to keep it later.”

    “Of course.”

    Seeing Mila looking at Lennok with a rare serious expression Lennok also smiled faintly and nodded.

    “I’m still an assistant professor at Labatenon University of Magic.”

    “…yet?”

    The moment when Mila and Priscilla muttered that meaningful answer at the same time.

    Suddenly the sky darkened and a large shadow fell right in front of the train window.

    Couuuuuuuuuuuuuut!!!

    Something unknown that takes the impact of a train directly in the middle of the tracks.

    However unlike the spider spirit which was unable to withstand the impact and its entire body exploded the opponent held on to the spot and stopped the train in front.

    I’m so excited!!!

    Flames exploding between the wheels and the train car shaking like crazy.

    The pitch-black fur and muscular torso appeared before the eyes of the three people who were staggering even while holding on to the support beam.

    Tdu-duk!!

    At the same time as the ceiling of the train car is being torn apart without hesitation I feel the shadow that has stopped the train looking down at me.

    Mila raised her gaze blankly and muttered as if it were absurd.

    “…gorilla?”

    [Whoop!!]

    The image of a gigantic gorilla showing its bloodshot face while blowing strong snorts through its wide nostrils.

    Its size goes beyond that of a decent car and is comparable to a couple of train cars on which Lennok and his party were riding.

    “Leopard Monkey Elephant Pig….”

    A cold male voice comes from the gorilla’s shoulder.

    A large shaman wearing a live gorilla mask looks down at the group with his arms crossed.

    “They’re all dead. yes?”

    “well?”

    Despite Mila’s mocking words the shaman paid no heed to them and looked at the train they were riding.

    “This would mean that they even took care of the spider that blocked the terminal when they got on the train… Wow we’re already five behind.”

    He said casually laughing at the deaths of his fellow shamans.

    “I heard that the students in the Department of Elements are very talented. “If he died leaving behind a high-quality offering it would have been purely due to his own incompetence.”

    “….”

    “But the elephant and the spider benefited from the promotion ritual to some extent… If you killed those two you must also be quite skilled.”

    The shaman’s gaze which had been looking around the driver’s seat where the roof of the train had been torn off soon turned to the very back.

    “Is it you?”

    Lennok roughly disposes of the coffee remaining in his cup wipes his mouth and stands up.

    The shaman glared sharply at Lennok who did not even look at the gorilla which was the size of a house and the shaman.

    “It smells like a spirit priest. It also smells very sweet and fragrant….”

    “Do you smell it?”

    “no!!”

    Priscilla was startled by Lennok’s question and shook her head.

    The shaman grinned paying no heed to such reactions.

    “It means that you are working with a spirit of special and advanced essence rather than a strong spirit body. “It is also the exact point we have been looking for through consciousness.”

    With the veins on the gorilla spirit’s neck rising the spirit grabs the train with both hands and slowly lifts it.

    Kugugoogung!!

    The spirit’s strength is so overwhelming that it is not enough to stop the train with just its own strength but to grab and lift it.

    If you were to fight head-on with a monster like this you wouldn’t be able to leave even a single piece of bone behind and would end up like jerky.

    But even though Lennok knew this he looked back at Mila who was making a sad expression in the staggering train.

    “Mila. “Can you enter the library first and check the directions?”

    Lennok asked with a smile on his face.

    “There’s something I’d like to check with that shaman for a moment.”

    “It doesn’t matter but will you be okay alone?”

    Mila said glancing at the growling gorilla.

    “Scylla won’t be of much help in a battle like this.”

    “Don’t worry about fighting.”

    Lennok said with a smile.

    “It will probably be over soon.”

    “…Just the answer. “He looks exactly like the scary wizard I know.”

    Mila muttered with a slightly fed-up expression and kicked the train door without hesitation while holding the shotgun.

    bang!!

    The sight of Mila quickly escaping through the gap in the door between the gorilla’s fingers.

    Quickly passing by the shaman and the spirit we head towards the huge central library building behind the gorilla.

    [Whoop?!]

    “don’t mind. “Focus on that spiritist.”

    The gorilla who seemed embarrassed snorted and turned his head but the shaman simply ignored Mila.

    An attitude as if nothing is more important than dealing with Lennok.

    Lennok carefully observed the shaman’s reactions and slowly raised his magic power.

    Priscilla asked holding on tightly to the shaking train compartment.

    “…Can we win?”

    “Look at the other person’s reaction. “You don’t seem very interested in protecting the library do you?”

    Lennok said gesturing towards the shaman.

    “There are two possibilities I can think of. “We have already reached our minimum goal or the person we are looking for is not in the library.”

    Lennok laughed as he took out Dabi who was dozing in his arms and lifted him up with both hands.

    “The former seems likely but the latter is difficult to determine without checking directly. That’s why I sent Mila first to check the library.”

    [Ugh… Master? Is it time to work already?]

    Dabi who was in Lennok’s hand stood up and yawned rubbing his eyes with his front paws.

    The appearance of a fox spirit stretching with its mouth wide open.

    The shaman stared at Dabi’s figure with a look of great interest.

    “On the outside it looks no different from other spirits… What makes your scent so special?”

    [What is that organism that is muttering that it smells like me?]

    Dabi grumbled quietly to Lennok so that Priscilla couldn’t hear.

    “good. Once you catch it and feed it to my spirit you will find out…!!”

    [Wild gorillas look smellier!]

    Kugugu!!

    As soon as the gorilla spirit releases his hand that lifted the train with all his might the train compartment briefly floats in the air.

    The gorilla who clenched his fist turned his shoulder once and punched the train compartment.

    Wow!!!

    The steel plate is crushed and the middle rail of the railroad is distorted and melted due to the impact.

    However the bodies of Lennok and Priscilla were not seen inside the smashed train.

    Lennok who had escaped by melting the floor of the train looked back at Priscilla whose complexion had turned blue and said.

    “That shaman has already completed the growth promotion ritual and his spirit power has grown significantly. Otherwise there’s no way I could come out with such a relaxed attitude.”

    “Assistant Professor Cho… I don’t think now is the time to be having a conversation like this…!!”

    At that moment the gorilla’s fist swung as it slid across the railroad track and hit Lennok on the back.

    Immediately after dozens of sharp thunderbolts rose from beneath Lennok’s feet and intertwined blocking the fist with a wall of thunder.

    Ujijijijik!!

    The pain of having your entire fist melted by the firepower of lightning-type common magic.

    The gorilla spirit screamed and shrugged its shoulders unable to withstand the firepower and intensity.

    [Keuuuuuu!!]

    “As far as I know I’ve never heard of being able to smell spirits. “I think perhaps in the author’s case synesthesia was abnormally activated…”

    Before I knew it Dabi was sitting on Lennok’s shoulder licking his tongue and emitting dazzling lightning from his entire body.

    In response to Dabi’s will Lennok quickly drew out his fox fire and nodded with his entire body covered in flashing lights from all directions.

    “In that case we should take a moment to figure out where the source of that ability and consciousness is located.”

    “Your guess from earlier was quite sharp.”

    The voice of the shaman riding on the gorilla’s shoulder was mixed with a faint smile.

    “But how long can we maintain that relaxed attitude?”

    Wood clatter!!

    A gorilla spirit the size of a house tears off a train compartment with its free hand and grabs it.

    The unrealistic sight of someone swinging a train compartment that could accommodate dozens of people at the same time holding it in their hand like a club.

    The moment when the gorilla raised it high in the sky and flexed its muscular body.

    Lennok said looking at Priscilla’s pale face.

    “Since the timing is right let’s study in advance about the practical application of elemental magic that third graders learn today.”

    “So I don’t think now is the time to be hearing this kind of story…!!”

    Kwaaaaaaaaaa!!!

    The moment the gorilla grabbed the train compartment and slammed it down the barrier made of lightning stakes shattered on the spot sweeping away the place where Lennok was standing.

    Train debris fluttering indiscriminately in all directions.

    However the debris that was about to hit Lennok and Priscilla stood still in place as if time had stopped.

    Paaaa!!

    A tingling cold sensation that chills the skin.

    The moment when the gorilla stopped holding its arms in the breath of vivid frost that froze the air.

    A fox spirit radiating a dark blue glow lightly landed in front of the gorilla.

    Damn it…!!

    Starting from Dabi’s toes legs body and tail. The exterior begins to freeze little by little like a small wave.

    The moment when Priscilla opened her mouth in a daze when she realized that Dabi’s appearance which was like living electricity had changed into the form of a sharp ice fox.

    Lennok snapped his fingers and nodded.

    “Shall we start with the simplest attribute conversion?”
