Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 818
Episode 818
Knot(5)
I once thought about it when I was building a reputation in the name of fastness.
Even though they are aware of the power gap, the opponents resist with all their might and ignite their fighting spirit.
Even in a hopeless situation where there is no way out, the enemies are trying to find a gap and find a weak point.
Why do they resist so desperately and burn with passion for life?
Nevertheless, like a moth to fire, it constantly approaches Lennok and oxidizes it.
There was a time when Lennok had to risk his life to be able to picture tomorrow, so he thought he understood that feeling, but he was mistaken.
It was only after losing all his strength and standing in front of Kroken that Lennok was able to understand how they felt.
Fighting because you think you can win is not because you believe you can survive.
This time to just open your eyes, breathe, think, and worry is so precious.
Because I don’t have enough room left to move while envisioning the future.
In the face of this monster, who is more fearful and ferocious than anyone else, I realize the instinct for life that I had temporarily forgotten.
I want to live.
Realizing that the hope he first had in this world has not yet faded within Lennok himself.
Lennok braced himself and whipped his broken body.
Coo coo coo!!
The shape of a pure white sanctuary shining beneath your feet.
The Holy Spirit magic that emanates from Kashuin occupies the space and restores Lennok’s body in real time.
The image of Kroken standing with his arms crossed in the middle of the slowly collapsing memorial tower, looking at Lennoc with amusement.
A new type that slowly wags its tail, covering its entire body with the remains of the military spirit it tore apart and the fog of its spiritual body.
Even from dozens of meters away, his bright yellow pupils shine eerily.
The moment when Lennok’s magical eye rotated and visualized a red and blue realm of possibility, illuminating the gap in Kroken.
“…Haha.”
I smiled bitterly after seeing that all the space that existed around Kroken had turned from red to black and was dead and sinking.
Measuring the gap and calculating the distance against that monster is completely meaningless.
The moment you enter that pitch-black area, the only thing that exists is a future of defeat that leads directly to death.
From now on, we must forcefully bridge that gap and achieve meaningful results from Kroken.
“Kashin. “Get ready.”
Lennok said, taking out a huge silver-shining papyrus from within his arms.
“You must take charge of the vanguard. “Move the sanctuary forward to expand the battlefield.”
[….]
I quickly organize the composition, recalling the memories of the time I fought Kroken.
During the mobile fortress, the goal was to use Felix as the vanguard and hit the target with high-fire power techniques.
He vowed not to repeat the same mistake, but when the situation became this way, what had to be done was decided.
“The opponent is a monster who has reached the peak of hand-to-hand combat. “Rather than confronting it head on, try to hold out as much as possible.”
[Do not command me, wizard.]
Archangel turned his gaze with an annoyed expression and glared at Lennok.
At the same time, the magic power that burst from Kashuin’s body strongly enveloped Lennok.
Tduduk!!
[He would have promised to call me only for his work. I also believed in him and entrusted myself to you.]
“….”
[Are you betraying my trust that you endured day after day in a cramped artifact like this?]
His tone of voice was so furious that it was hard to believe that he was standing there engulfed in holy magic and brilliance.
However, the archangel’s reaction was not completely incomprehensible.
Even though I encountered Dorae several times in the Infinite Sanctuary, the reason I woke up the archangel was not to do the cult leader’s work, but to deal with the military orders of the Requiem.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Kashuin, who had raised his power by declaring a sanctuary, felt not only a sense of despair but also a sense of betrayal.
However, even though Lennok saw Kashuin glaring at him, he was not embarrassed and calmly asked back.
“That’s a funny thing to say. “Do you think I’m lying?”
[Or what?]
Rennok rubbed the stigma engraved on his right wrist.
“The reason why you were called in with such power now. “I guess you still don’t understand.”
[….]
The authority of a priest transferred by the priestess Seina Naidri.
Although it may not be as good as what her priestess would handle directly, it is her favor that she risked her own soul to deliver.
Lennok used this stigma to fully awaken Kashuin’s existence and summon him to this place.
Rather, he knew that he could act proudly against Kashuin.
“This moment itself is proof that the promise was kept. “If I wasn’t chasing the cult leader’s traces, would I have been able to obtain this authority and wake you up?”
[…that.]
Lennok glared at Kashuin with cold eyes.
“If you rebel like this one more time, I will treat the agreement as never having happened. Do you understand?”
The subjugation of Kashuin to the Archangel’s compassion was not a relationship formed by a contract of equals.
Lennok has already fought the Archangel and trampled on his soul and body. He is just harvesting that existence and using it up.
In the process, it’s okay to listen to Kashuin’s wishes, but he shouldn’t forget his own situation.
Putting down Kashuin by asserting justifiable cause and effect as he is doing now also has implications for maximizing his ability.
“If you understand, move the sanctuary immediately. “What I have to do from now on is a gamble that I cannot even attempt without risking my life.”
[…good night.]
Kashuin slowly turned his back, looking like he was finally convinced.
Kashuin said, looking at Kroken standing in the distance and spreading his hands.
[It was clearly a brand imbued with His will that called me. You are right. Let’s cooperate this time.]
Scream!!
At that moment, a spear and a sword were held in both of Kashuin’s hands at the same time.
The pure white wings came off as if twisted and turned into the shape of a real blade on the spot.
Kashuin steps forward, spreading his wings wide and grasping his spear and sword with both hands.
The archangel, whose legs are well over 2 meters tall, and the equally gigantic Croken face each other in the center of the tower.
Kroken laughed at the elongated figure of Kashuin, which was so out of proportion to the human body.
“You brought in a disobedient dog while I wasn’t seeing you. “It’s really believable to confront the owner without even knowing him.”
[dog? Am I a dog?]
“Then you don’t think so?”
Kroken’s mouth twisted cruelly.
“The only thing you can do is bark and whine without knowing the topic… I guess it means that your situation is not easy enough to use something like this as a weapon.”
Crunchy!!
Crocken said, slowly curling his fist.
“Look carefully. “I’ll show you how useless it is to be a tool that doesn’t listen to what you’re told.”
“I have a different opinion on that.”
Lennok muttered that and slowly opened the papyrus he was holding.
“It is the job of a magician to change the situation by using whatever is available.”
Wow!!
The magic circle engraved on the papyrus, which was enough to cover the entire body, glowed dazzlingly.
The magic circle mixed with the power of the sanctuary and began to be absorbed into Lennok’s body.
Lennok stood up, feeling a strange floating sensation, as if magic power was pouring into his entire body.
Papyrus Argenteus acquired from Jindun’s Cradle. A magical device that can be used to store spells and magical power.
Normally, I use it to chant the flashing spells that I have saved in advance one by one and then cast them right away.
The true value of Papyrus Argenteus lies in its explosive power that instantly transforms stored magical energy into real power.
It is one of the most effective hand cards owned by Lennok, and it is the Ascendant’s Legacy that was saved without being used even during the Requiem’s annihilation.
Coo coo coo!!!
The blood-covered body is raised with the power of the Sanctuary and the magic power of Papyrus is filled into it.
Fill the depleted body with fuel and turn the worn-out engine to increase rotation speed.
“Whoa….”
A miracle that seemed to breathe a second breath into Lennok’s already exhausted body.
The appearance of Kroken smiling eerily beyond the waves of magical power that fall ceaselessly like a waterfall.
As if there was no way he would wear out so easily, as if he thought he would be ready to fight and run again.
Even with the archangel in front of him grotesquely rolling his eyes, he is waiting.
Faced with Kroken’s flashing gaze, Lennok covered his obsidian mask with one hand.
wickedness…!!
The moment he gently swept over the mask and hid his magic, Lennok’s new form disappeared as if it had been washed away.
[Hey!!]
At the same time, Kashuin, standing in front of Kroken, raised his Holy Spirit magic power and rapidly elevated himself.
Coo coo coo!!!
The sanctuary, shining white, rotated as if it were boiling and rose up like a hemispherical dome with the two monsters in between.
[In the paradise ruled by my god, outstanding warriors trained themselves for him.]
The blood vessels in both of Kashuin’s arms swelled explosively as he raised his spear swords, suddenly increasing his strength.
[I will check whether your foolish body is worthy of entering that hall!!]
The moment Kashuin’s spear struck Kroken’s shoulder, a pillar of pure white light exploded and exploded above his head.
Kwaaaang!!
As he twisted his wrists, elbows, shoulders and fingers in different directions, the spear hanging at the end spun at incredible speeds.
Kashuin’s new form becomes bent and blurred, and the wings on its back shake violently, changing direction and altitude.
Get the card!!
Every time Kashuin’s Changgeuk embroiders the air, the white light turns over and becomes dizzy.
It accelerates explosively and at every moment of swing, acceleration and transformation take place immediately, distributing magic power and will.
A strong, powerful blow was delivered accurately to all sides of the Crocodile Giant’s massive body.
Doo doo doo doo!!!
“…!!”
Even Lennok, who was preparing for the last chant, was surprisingly balanced at the moment.
The martial arts themselves are much more complete than when he was dealing with Lennok at Ascension Gate.
Was this the influence of Lennok using his priestly authority to summon an archangel and declare sanctuary?
Kwazijik!!
The Archangel’s onslaught that never tires of pounding Kroken’s massive body while unleashing with just one arm a tremendous power that cannot easily be tolerated by the human body.
However, Kroken was not greatly disturbed by Kashuin’s balanced spear skills.
I just laughed, glaring at the Changgeuk that was shaking dizzyingly in front of me, as if it was interesting.
“Three divergences and one convergence. Is this a spear technique completed using the techniques of the Trinity? “It’s an uncharacteristically dogmatic martial art.”
He tilts his head to avoid the spear blade trying to pierce his eyelids, and grabs the spear blade with his bare hand.
Okay!!
A miracle that casually catches and snatches the blade of Kashuin’s spear, which was fluttering like silk and speeding up.
“But if you occupy the center, it is not difficult to destroy it.”
Before Kashuin could respond to his ridiculous reaction, Kroken moved first.
Croken twisted his wrist, breaking the blade of the spear, then clenched his fist and struck the Archangel in the jaw with invisible speed.
“die.”
A dull radiance penetrates the archangel’s new form from bottom to top.
Pfft!!
Kashuin’s head was unable to withstand the force and suddenly exploded.
The archangel’s head exploded in an instant, turning into pure white powder and flying around.
[…!!!]
The moment Croken lightly lifted his hand, leaving Archangel’s body staggering and losing balance.
Push shoo!!
Holy Spirit magic burst out from under Kashuin’s neck and gushed like a pure white fountain.
At the same time, the archangel’s head regenerates in an instant and regains its balance with a creaking sound, as if forcibly raising the body.
Kroken burst into laughter at the strange sight.
“I thought it looked bad, but it turned out to be a disgusting monster. “You’re not even an insect, but you’re even regenerating your head?”
[At the point when the sanctuary was declared, even I myself was just a part of maintaining the sanctuary.]
Kashuin, whose head regenerated in an instant, adjusted his posture.
[There is no way to collapse until you run out of strength. Come, you monster of heaven!!]
Kwaang!!
The new forms of the Archangel and the Crocodile Giant intersect for a moment, but are soon unable to overcome Croken’s power and are completely destroyed.
A one-sided composition that crushes not only the head but also the swinging spear and body by trampling on them.
However, Kashuin regenerated his body like a zombie and constantly clung to Kroken.
At least he didn’t listen to Lennok’s words as to what he should do at this moment.
Every time the archangel’s body breaks and regenerates, the power of the sanctuary rapidly dwindles and disappears ceaselessly.
The moment the power of the sanctuary centered around Kashuin fades, holding on like that is over.
“let’s go.”
Lennok’s body quickly accelerated and fell from the other side of the collapsing ceiling of the cenotaph.
Wedge!!
The speed is so great that everything around it appears stretched out like a thin thread.
It increases its speed to the point where it is difficult to control and falls towards Croken while firing flashes wildly, mixing in irregularities in the process.
His entire body shattered and he slipped under the fluttering wings of the Archangel, reaching in front of Kroken in an instant.
thud!!
Inky-colored scales flashing in front of your nose. A huge fuselage that takes your breath away just by looking at it with your own eyes.
Just by standing this close, a strange certainty suddenly comes over me, as if death is approaching.
It may be because we have already confirmed several times that there is no chance of winning at this distance.
“Whoa…!!”
But if not for this moment, you might not even be allowed to try again.
Kroken is not a stubborn person who is obsessed with promises, but he is also not a lighthearted person who spits out meaningless words.
In that case, Lennoc would definitely wait for this moment when he developed his image.
Even if you replenish your magical power with the power of Papyrus, your depleted mental power is not easily recovered.
You can only express your imagination in front of Kroken once. And what to show was already decided.
A new type of Cashin that explodes above your head. Leaving behind the crushed and broken body of the archangel
Ignoring for a moment the monstrous power and ferocious will that burst out between Croken’s roar and roar.
Saaaaa…!!
It feels like all the sounds around me are being washed away.
In the midst of the infinitely still silence in my head, everything darkened before my eyes and everything sank deeply.
A level of self-contemplation that digs deep into one’s own unconsciousness while concentrating one’s mind.
At the end, it pulls out the image as if scooping it up and unfolds a golden line.
Kiiiiing…!!
The magic circle of Ouroboros flashes, twisting the clock and rotating as if opening up a perfectly knit muscular body beneath the inky scales.
The power of Ouroboros to analyze and dismantle laws and techniques.
But what Lennok was aiming for was not Kroken’s microcosm or his mental image.
When I plunged a lightning bolt into Kroken’s solar plexus, I already realized that such an attack was useless.
Same situation. Same composition. If the same result awaits, at least Lennok’s choice should be different.
Therefore, rather than Kroken, the curse he carries is the object of Ouroboros.
If the curse targets Kroken rather than himself, it can be analyzed and dismantled with Lennok’s power.
Overlapping weakness. Seal of intention. Kwontojungrae. Other headquarters.
Observe from the Infinite Sanctuary, recognize the curse bound to the object, and forcibly capture it.
“…You really can’t believe it?”
Kroken’s expression hardened for the first time when he realized that Ouroboros was not headed in the same direction.
Tdu-duk-duk!!!
The intangible curses bound to Kroken’s body gradually lose their binding power and are released.
It is not about directly digging into Kroken’s original image, but about breaking the curse that binds him and taking a peek inside.
Beyond the bonds of the disintegrating curse, we contemplate Croken’s inner self with transcendent intuition.
The moment Lennok paused as he recognized a gigantic, inexplicable presence beyond him.
“No, that won’t work.”
A small, pitch-black sphere emerged from Kroken’s hand.
Gooooo…!!
Just by clenching and opening my fist, it seems as if all space and time in the area are being pulled in around Kroken.
An unrealistic miracle that gathers all the manpower in the vicinity and creates a sphere of density with just a simple grip.
Kugwagwagwagwa!!!
The moment when the sphere, which was growing explosively by consuming all the substances and magic around it, came into contact with the Ouroboros’ law formation.
The sphere of gravity could not overcome the image of the creation magic and disintegrated and disappeared on the spot.
“…!!!”
The aftereffects caused Lennok’s body to fall backwards, but he was unable to raise his body and recalled his reaction.
A mental imager based on the intention that Kroken actually shows for the first time.
However, it was not a technique used to kill Lennok or repel the attack.
In order to prevent Ouroboros’ power from fully functioning, Kroken created a sphere of attraction and threw it instead.
In fact, it is no different from an acknowledgment that the Ouroboros power activated by Lennoc was effective-
Wow!!
Before I could even think properly, Kroken’s body accelerated at an incredible speed.
He trampled and smashed Kashuin’s new form, and instantly trampled Lennok’s body and threw it to the ground.
“…!!”
“It is the power to dismantle and disintegrate laws. Was that your creation magic?”
The crocodile giant asked in surprise, looking down at Lennoc, who was unable to even scream and clenched his teeth.
“He really is a very reckless guy. “Are you targeting the curse on my body, not me from the beginning?”
“Cough…!!”
However, even as Lennoc squirmed under Croken’s feet, he gritted his teeth and raised his gaze.
“You want to see the answer… right?”
“….”
The magnetic field that radiates all possibilities and Ouroboros that absorbs and converges the laws.
Both powers that Lennoc gained by completing and transcending the hierarchy are part of the answer he hopes for.
It is a process that hopes to become the ending itself.
“It’s a bias in the process of drawing the answer… Yes, I admit it.”
Cro Ken chuckled and nodded his head.
“The magic you just showed was worth it. But that is not a wish that must be fulfilled now.”
“Why?”
Lennok asked.
Even though he was completely trampled and trampled, Lennok’s eyes were filled with strange confidence as he looked up at the giant.
“Is there a reason you have to react so sensitively to the curse that is suffocating your body?”
Kroken seemed to be lost in thought for a moment and answered quietly.
“It’s natural for paths to change after reaching one point, baby.”
“….”
“The leader stood in front of him and the leader crossed over. “For those who are qualified, the situation will be no different.”
“…you are?”
“Sometimes.”
Kroken chuckled at Lennok’s words.
“Some people are born in front of goodness… You can only survive if you take a step back.”
“….”
What on earth does that mean?
Kroken’s quiet reply was not an answer.
That moment when I was desperately trying to figure out what it meant.
“It’s time.”
Croken grabbed the nape of Lennok’s neck, which was twitching helplessly, and began to drag his body.
“What are you trying to do…?”
Kwaang!!
As soon as he heard Lennok’s words, Croken lightly kicked Lennok in the stomach with his tail.
“Don’t talk back.”
“…!!”
A powerful shock that shakes the brain enough to penetrate the effects of painkillers.
If you applied the right force, it wouldn’t be surprising if Lennok’s body exploded on the spot.
Croken, who was walking with Lennok’s limp body, throws Lennok out of the violently shaking tower.
Lennok’s new form falls out of the tower helplessly on the spot along with the spirit body of Oris, which was hanging on the magic thread.
“…!!!”
The moment when Lennok struggled to raise his head even as he fell due to that incomprehensible action.
“I told you that a tool that doesn’t listen is useless.”
Croken, standing at the edge of the tower, looked down at Lennok and said.
“I’ll teach you how to use those tools from now on.”
“…what?”
At that moment, the crocodile giant’s massive body shattered the steps of the memorial tower and began to soar at incredible speed.
Kugwagwagwagwagwa!!!!
Every time Kroken’s new form soars onto the tower, the stairs of the tower explode and crash down.
In the aftermath, the height of the shaking tower gradually decreases and begins to collapse.
By simply jumping a few times, the new version of the Crocodile Giant breaks the speed of sound.
With an enormous sonic boom, it became a living storm and immediately headed to the top of the tower.
Kwaaaa!!
Croken’s new form rose hundreds of meters in the air, with the remains of the tower wrapped around its body.
It swings its tail, which is thick and strong like a rebar, and hovers over the ground, balancing perfectly in the air.
The moment when Kroken, who was looking at the shaking memorial tower with bright yellow reptile pupils, stretched out one hand to the sky.
Dismissal!!
From beyond the dark cloudy sky, a black, twisted ray of light fell into Croken’s hand.
It’s going to fall out quickly…!!
The black brilliance distorted in Kroken’s hand and soon took the form of a huge hammer.
The moment when Lennok realized that the hammer was an artifact that had previously contained the magic power of arrival.
Croken’s new form, holding the hammer, flashed and rotated on the spot.
A single shot in which the hammer grasped is swung toward the ground without any leap, preparation or warm-up.
However, at that moment, the immeasurable power that exploded around Kroken came into contact with that intention for the first time and transformed into a gigantic pillar of light.
It became a huge pillar of light connecting the ground and the sky, crushing the entire memorial tower.
Kwaaaa!!!
The memorial tower, which is hundreds of meters high, collapses near the top, crushing all its remains and exploding.
The stairs of the tower are shaking after losing the Heroic Spirit of the Requiem Pavilion. The remnants of the military order that perished within it.
Kroken’s slash that gathers them all together and crushes them.
The fruit of a night trip. Bridge of failed souls.
The huge cenotaph that had guarded the center of Yorta for a long time is collapsing due to the decision of just one person.
Kwagwagwagwa!!!
Even Lennok, who was falling from the bottom of the tower, was caught in the aftermath and bounced in the opposite direction and began to fall toward the ground.
“….”
With Oris’ spiritual body hanging on the end of the magician, Lennok remained blank.
I was watching the hotbed of destruction that Croken Asillus had created with all his heart.
