Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 252

Interference (3)

The air around you has settled down heavily.

Lennok’s complexion hardened as he realized that Agneta wasn’t just relaying words.

‘This… … It’s close to the level of reproducing the entire memory and feeling of that time.’

Do you record the sensations you saw and felt, then manipulate the environment around you to realize it as you remember?

A sophisticated manipulation technique that makes it hard to believe that you are looking at it yourself.

The reason she was chosen as the herald of Pandaemonium.

The air shuddered slowly, creating a muffled voice.

[I heard that you declined the offer.]

“… … .”

[I think talking like this is a waste of time, but… … . I believe and tell you that you will be worth it.]

A voice like a man and a woman, an old man and a child. Nothing can be read in that tone except a certainty close to madness.

[It is an absurd world. Right?]

The voice continued.

[But that doesn’t make it a good reason for this world to disappear. Living and breathing is more precious and valuable than anything else. In itself, it is like a journey across a huge river called fate.]

The voice of one of the world’s leading international criminal organizations was much softer than I thought.

[At the end of the trip, I was sure. One person’s journey must have an ending, but the world’s time must continue… … .]

“… … .”

[Even if this world doesn’t want it.]

A cold silence passed.

What he said was said from a height so vast and from a perspective so distant that even Lennok could not fully comprehend its meaning.

There were many questions, but Lennok finally kept his mouth shut.

At this moment, Agneta was just recording and retelling what the head of the Pandemonium had said.

[I heard that you are looking for a way to deal with space-time. If you’re trying to acquire a talent like yours, there must be a reason.]

While thinking, the words continued.

[You will be able to get a decent answer from the church’s secretary.]

“… … !”

[I don’t know if you really agree with us, but… … . It doesn’t matter anyway.]

A smile mixed in his voice as if he could clearly see Lennok’s emotions.

[Let’s say the gift was given in advance while waiting for the day to come.]

Whoa!!

At that moment, a strong wind blew in, and the pressure that had been pressing down on all sides disappeared in an instant.

When Lennok looked up, Agneta was already far away, touching her eyepatch.

“Whoa… … .”

To the point where the tobacco I was holding in my mouth burned all the way to the end of the filter before I knew it.

As Lennok smiled bitterly and spat out the tobacco he was biting, he heard someone from behind.

coo!!

Evelyn, who had flaunted Turan’s colossal corpse, stood behind them.

“Is that okay?”

Without saying a word, Agneta pulled a long string from the huge torso and wrapped it around Turan’s corpse.

Agneta lifted his corpse lightly with ten legs, and when she flicked her fingers, dozens of cocoons hanging from the tree fell to the ground all at once.

At the same time, Agneta, who placed Mouser neatly on the ground, said.

“Don’t trust the Balkan City Council too much. Evelyn, I’m telling you because I like you.”

“… … .”

“The senile grandpas there are in some ways dirtier and uglier than us.”

Evelyn didn’t say anything with a stiff face.

That fact, she would know all too well.

The fact that the order and security of the megacities she has devoted her life to may in fact be nothing more than a fleeting illusion that will disappear in an instant.

However, even so, the trajectory of living so far to believe in the inner goodness and walk correctly is the proof of Evelyn Marcia.

Agneta, too, smiled faintly under her eyepatch, perhaps thinking that she did not have to speak for long.

“I hope next time I see you again, I won’t be a puppet for those old people.”

After saying that, she hid her existence as if she was blurring on the spot, carrying Turan’s corpse on her back.

“… … .”

Evelyn stared at the place where she disappeared for a long time without saying a word.

Lennox, too, had a complicated look on his face, just repeating the words she left.

There was only silence in the dead forest until the belatedly awakened wizards struggled in their cocoons.

* * *

The man was walking on clouds.

Whoooooooooo!!

The wind that blows endlessly hits the cheek, but the sky is refreshing.

No matter how bad the weather was, the world felt absolutely peaceful when I was above the clouds like this.

Same.

No hardships and adversities can affect the mind and body after passing a certain range.

A strange voice came from inside his arms as he whistled with his hands behind his back.

[Dr.]

It’s a voice that feels blank somewhere, but the emotion contained in that tone is unknown.

[The furnace capture failed. Zionis and Turan are dead.]

“Um.”

[As you said, I did retrieve Turan’s body, but… … . As promised, when your research is finished, are you going to let me know the results?]

“Of course, Agneta.”

The man replied with a happy expression.

“Turan is a very good warrior enough to respect his taste for human flesh. Rather, don’t you know that that twisted appetite ate away the potential of the body? If the direction had changed even slightly, it would have reached a much higher place than it is now.”

[What are you going to do?]

“I’m going to make his hair again.”

The doctor laughed.

“If the neck is blown off, it is easy to make a clone by interpreting the biometric information contained in the muscle tissue. However, even if I make it like that, it will not reach the original physical performance, so I cut off the clone’s head and paste it into the original body.”

[…] … .]

“Of course, in the process, I will need to touch my brain a little to my taste. I brought it back to life, so I won’t be able to covet human flesh again. Aren’t you curious too?”

Fain!

He stops at a point above the clouds and taps his foot lightly, and a huge ripple spreads out, breaking the clouds and revealing the landscape on the ground.

A landscape of a small town with pouring rain.

The expression of the people who came out on the street and looked up at the sky was all in the man’s eyes.

“I wonder if the talent contained in the body can be interpreted with theories and principles that humans can understand.”

[Not really,]

said Agneta sullenly.

[Even if Turan comes back to life fifty times, I don’t think he’ll beat Old Crocodile.]

“Yes. This is why such troublesome research is necessary to catch up with that man.”

The man rummaged in his arms and took out a small flask.

“Even under one great goal, the way to reach it is bound to be different. Waiting for the day when I will face that fork in the road… … . It’s a role to prepare for.”

[Do you want to kill the old crocodile?]

“Hahahaha!!”

The man let out a cool laugh.

I don’t think I can get her sympathy.

As a descendant of an ancient species that crossed imaginary dimensions, her sensibility, which was aware of the discontinuity of space from the moment she was born, was very different from others.

Rather, it was because he was able to look at things the other way that he had not yet lost the precious gift he was born with.

I even feel a bit of pity for her environment… … . Instead of telling Agneta such trivial sentiments, the man casually turned around.

“It’s not something to talk about right now. I have work to do.”

The man, who had been gazing contentedly at something constantly swirling inside the flask, glanced down at his feet.

Unlike large cities with a population of 10 million, it is not uncommon for cities with a population of hundreds of thousands to millions of people to rule over a very small number of superhumans.

The deal that entrusts their safety to monsters who have crossed their limits and protects the city as an asset has a surprisingly long history.

And the middle-aged man staring at us with his arms folded in the middle of the city where the rain pours heavily is just a part of that history.

“The old tyrant who rules Humbelt… … .”

The man who was looking down at the middle-aged man smiled.

“He’s just a crazy old man stuck in his own castle. Today’s quota will be over soon.”

* * *

After handing over Turan’s corpse and rescuing Mouser, including the Wizards of the Mage Tower.

It didn’t take long to rectify the situation.

To be precise, it should be said that it did not take long for the Mage Tower to understand the situation and dispatch a person in charge.

It was because the positive testimony of Einz, her godfather, who was vaguely aware of Ibelin’s prestige as the Hyeongung and the situation, worked.

The remaining wizards of the Mage Tower were dubious, but after seeing the corpses of the Senators and the survivors recovered from Beecher, they immediately convinced themselves.

The fact that Lennok and Ibelin were the ones who prevented the explosion of the furnace, which almost blew away the entire Mage Tower, also played a big role.

Crucially, in order to deal with this situation, the person in charge at Blaver’s Magic Tower headquarters knew Evelyn.

“This is really disrespectful.”

Mouser said weakly, rubbing his eyes.

What was the shock to learn that not only had all the envoys of the Machine City except for him died, but they had been taken hostage at the end and were forced to trade Turan’s corpse?

Above his full beard, his complexion was haggard, as if he had aged ten years.

“It’s not enough to personally check if the magic tower in the West Continent branch is running properly, so it’s just barely getting the job done after receiving some help… … .”

“It’s not the Mouser father’s fault.”

Evelyn replied in a soft tone.

“It’s hard to imagine that the tower lord’s direct disciple could not have joined hands with Pandemonium and offered other people as prey for that murderer. I also doubted the circumstances, but I never thought that they would act so boldly.”

In this incident, the number of people sacrificed as food for Turan, the cannibal man, is well over fifty.

The members of the Senate who became prey while losing consciousness. From the rapidly increasing number of missing people inside the Mage Tower to the missing members of the machine city delegation near the volcanic area.

As a result of the investigation, the cave where the envoys from Machine City went missing was the result of Zionis manipulating the heat to steal the embers from the furnace, and the outlet was damaged, extending near the volcanic area.

It is said that the heat above the limit melted and burned the underground bedrock and formed new minerals.

“I guess so. But that is no reason why I have become a burden in this case. I should’ve known for sure that he touched the furnace, but… … .”

Behind him, as he trembled, hung heavy loads twice as tall as Mouser.

It was because Mouser insisted on carrying their belongings directly to the city, even if he could not immediately transport the bodies of his fallen comrades.

The moment the two of them said goodbye to Mouser and were about to turn around.

“Oh, I forgot to hand this over.”

Mouser rummaged through the inside of his beard and pulled out two long objects from the inside.

“… … .”

The moment Lennok opened his mouth slightly at the unrealistic ability to store space, Mouser handed Lennok and Evelyn the items they were holding in their hands, one at a time.

“One of the products our delegation brought as a trade item for the visit of the Mage Tower.”

Two shotguns with impressive cylinders that sway blue magic power.

“Its basic power is the same as other shotguns, but it is a special order item that can temporarily amplify its power and range by charging magical power. It is the product of a project promoted by the workshop to encourage magic users to use firearms.”

“I don’t use a gun, but… … .”

Evelyn smiled bitterly and tried to return it, but Mouser adamantly refused.

“For now, just accept this.”

“… … .”

“Even though I don’t have much, so I can’t give you a big reward, but if the two of you visit Machine City someday, I’ll definitely pay my respects. This is proof of that.”

After saying that, Mouser silently shouldered his burden and left for Machine City.

As if to atone for his behavior of not being responsible for the safety of his other colleagues and not even assessing their life or death while focusing on maintaining the brazier in the Mage Tower.

His steps seemed infinitely heavy.

As the two silently gazed at the back, a dull voice suddenly sounded from behind.

“Has that old man gone already? I heard that the furnace inspection isn’t over yet.”

“… … They said that the stabilization of the basic power source was completed and that this is the area where he can work. If that wasn’t enough, they told me to contact Machine City.”

“Damn it, I don’t know too many people in this town… … .”

After saying that, the voice yawned and then muttered in a dull tone.

“What you say is probably right.”

“Can I talk like that?”

“I don’t know either. Wouldn’t it work somehow?”

A woman with rich red hair and sharp eyes said while scratching her head.

In her mouth was a cigar much thicker than Lennok’s.

A mage known as one of the five rosary beads that protect the Blaver Magic Tower and one of the most flashy and violent gunners.

Tatiana Chiglet, the Witch of Fire.

Lenoc was also a well-known celebrity and one of the active wizards on the central front.

As she scratched her messy hair, her and Lennok’s eyes met.

said Tatiana with a grin.

“I heard the story from the kids. You said you were a wizard who gave the dead priest a disgrace?”

“I have never embarrassed you.”

Despite Lennok’s words, she didn’t care and said, clearing her ears.

“Anyway, even if you say that you shouldn’t ignore that you’re from the Magic Tower, you fools won’t understand what you’re saying. They pretend to realize it only after someone has died.”

He is a very ferocious person because his tone is harsh.

Tatiana’s red eyes flashed sharply at Lennok.

“The booklet that Gionis had. did you eat?”

“… … .”

“That’s actually my master’s. I’ll pretend I don’t know, so please do me one favor.”

“what?”

“The beginning of the year you are blooming. Isn’t it ready-made?”

She raised her hand as she flicked the cigar in her mouth.

“It looks so delicious. Tell me how to mix it.”

“… … .”

Both Lennok and Evelyn kept their mouths shut at that bold yet shameless request.

Blaver Mage Tower. One of the five rosary beads that protect old traditions and disciplines.

The fire witch must have been more eccentric than I could have imagined.
