Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 291
Part 2 Episode 31
Question
“Well, it’s annoying, but it doesn’t mean there’s no way.”
Kanye looked at Elric with a face full of doubt.
Elric grinned and briefly showed his left shoulder.
At that moment, Kanye’s eyes widened.
“Oh no, when…!”
The seal of deception was clearly visible on Elric’s shoulder.
Things dug up from the demons that Hyul’s thought body consumed during the battle with Kanye.
Kanye’s body began to tremble.
Lilim boasts characteristics that are completely different from ordinary demon groups.
Hive Mind.
It is also called ‘grid computing’ as it refers to one mind controlling multiple entities.
Lilim is connected through a spiritual network with various “branded” terminals centered around a central entity called Lilith, and controls them.
He separated some of his thoughts from the hosts and used them as puppets, and when they died, all of their memories and magical powers were taken back and he continued to evolve.
In other words, the terminals with the ‘Stigma’ each had their own consciousness, but at the same time, they were also subordinate to Lilith.
In other words, Lilith could be said to be the mother and source of all Lilim.
‘〈Strange〉 also falls into this category.’
Mord is subject to Lilith’s interference through the forcibly applied ‘Stigma’.
Right now, Elric has blocked Lilith’s access using magic he prepared separately.
The release had the characteristic of being able to access this side at any time.
but.
To turn this around:
‘Conversely, hacking is also possible.’
Elric smiled coldly as he infused magic into the Seal of Deception.
This means that if all terminals are connected through a network, releases can be found when going back.
So, if we could use this Seal of Deception well, we could easily find out their home base.
And now.
Right here was the ‘First Class Butler’ with authority higher than Elric’s Seal of Deception.
“Oh, no…!”
Kanye, who realized Elric’s intention, struggled.
“Is it okay?”
Before he knew it, Elric was holding Kanye’s shoulder tightly and making eye contact.
“【Show】.”
Ugh!
Elric’s eyes glowed purple.
Conversely, they are trying to hypnotize Kanye.
Kanye tried his best to resist.
“Kuh keuhuh!”
Soon, he made a painful noise and failed to resist.
and.
Whoa!
The space Elric was in was turned upside down.
It immediately penetrated into Kanye’s unconscious world.
* * *
As soon as I entered Kanye’s inner world, the first thing I saw was a space of nothingness.
A space so dark that you can’t even see straight ahead.
But slowly something began to appear.
Kanye’s’ in translucent form.
And the unknown ghosts who are with Kanye.
The numbers were so numerous that they seemed to be piled on top of each other.
“Mephie, what are all those?”
Mephisto, who successfully dived with Elric, snorted lightly. Since I was dealing with the Great Demon King, I was bound to need his help.
『It appears to be the remaining consciousness of those who were eaten by this guy. The clearer it is, the more recent it is. The blurrier it is, the older it is.』
The remnants were repeating the same actions and words as if showing what happened at the time.
“Then what about those?”
Elric pointed to the soul flying in the air.
Kiaaaa –
unlike those who were in human form, they were flying around the inner world in the shape of distorted ghosts.
『Tsk. Those are the souls of the warlocks who made a contract with this guy. “You’ve done all sorts of useless things.”
Warlocks tended to make contracts with demons by sacrificing their souls.
The reasons were varied.
To take revenge on someone.
To gain strength stronger than anyone else.
And the results of the contract were what we can see now.
『Once the contract is over, you will be eaten by the devil and remain here as entertainment forever.』
You fools. Mephisto said this, crossing his arms.
『Well, thanks to those guys, we are watching closely.』
While Mephisto muttered, Elric approached the remnants of consciousness right in front of him.
‘Please save me!’
‘I’m not trying to kill you. It is an honor to serve you, Lilith. Take it easy.’
‘Kwaaaaaak!’
When the translucent Kanye placed his hand on the unknown person’s head, the remains disappeared along with a scream.
Elric turned his head to the other remnants.
‘Kanye, I’m ready.’
‘okay? ‘Go right away.’
Kanye immediately follows his subordinate’s words.
In front of him, countless people were kneeling in fear.
‘Nice to meet you. My name is Kanye.’
Kanye introduces himself like that and hypnotizes everyone.
As everyone was hypnotized, Kanye continued, smiling in satisfaction.
‘Now everyone, by drinking the holy water in front of you, you will become one with Lilith!’
The remnants disappeared when the hypnotized people drank the black colored water.
This time I turned my attention to the soul.
As Elric captured the soul, the soul’s memories began to replay in Elric’s vision.
‘Did you call me?’
‘That’s right.’
‘What do you want?’
‘Please bring back the woman who left me! I offer my soul to Lilith!’
‘He’s a very upright kid.’
In addition, Elric scanned all remaining remnants and memories of souls.
And I could tell.
These are all beings who have been transplanted with Lilith’s ‘strangeness’.
Among them, there were several who appeared to be members of the Hungry clan.
However, no matter how hard I searched, I could not find any remnants or souls related to the most important home base.
We need to know their stronghold to find Lilith.
Only then will we be able to completely eliminate Lilith’s strangeness that was implanted in the evil clan.
“I can’t help it.”
I wondered if I could get some good information here, but it seemed like I would have to meet the person in person.
“Why don’t you just come out now instead of hiding and watching like a rat?”
Then, as soon as I finished speaking, my inner world began to vibrate.
Kugugugugu-!
And the deepest part of the inner world.
The dark sea filled with all kinds of ghosts split to the left and right, and something huge began to slowly raise its head.
One of the Great Demon Lords.
It was the release of an orgy.
* * *
A gorgeous appearance that will captivate you with just a glance.
Demon Lord Lilith said with a charming smile.
“Hohohoho, you are a descendant as attractive as your progenitor. “Usden also has a lot of charm.”
Even as she said that, Lilith’s expression was filled with admiration.
I wonder how on earth they even thought of coming here.
Elric shrugged his shoulders.
“It just opened?”
“Very smart Irona. “I heard at first glance that you were chosen by the progenitor, but… it’s totally worth it,”
Lilith said with admiration.
“But.”
But at that moment, the mood she gave off changed completely.
The energy of a fierce predator.
The air weighing down Elric became heavier.
“How dare you call me out? It was a useless act of cruelty. So, I will make you pay for it.”
Lilith, who took on the form of a giant, opened her mouth wide. The corner of the mouth was torn to the ear, exposing jagged serrated teeth.
The magical energy storm that blew at the same time was enough to send a chill down Elric’s spine.
‘Even though I’ve melted this much magic stone, it’s still difficult to even stand face to face. ‘How great are these things?’
From Azazel to Lilith. Elric had no choice but to swallow his breath as he looked at the guy whose limits it was difficult to guess.
How much more effort do we have to make to deal with them? Even while thinking that, he pretended to be calm and shed a lot of cynicism.
It wasn’t up to him to deal with this great evil anyway.
“I want to do that too… I’m sorry, but I can’t?”
Elric shouted, pointing his hand forward.
“Go Mephi! “I chose you today!”
『…What kind of bullshit are you talking about again?』
“Oh, you really have sense. At times like that, you shout, ‘Mephimephi!’”
『….』
“Now, let’s go again. Go Mephie!”
『…Anyway, the real king doesn’t live up to his command.』
Mephisto looked at Elric with a disdainful expression, but he knew that there was nothing to be gained by questioning him, so he immediately rushed at Lilith.
『Still.』
Before he knew it, a hint of sarcasm was hanging on his lips.
『It will be very fun.』
Azazel, who had fought before, had not fully recovered from the fight with Usden.
Because of this, even if they were eaten, they could not enjoy any significant changes.
But Lilith was different.
After a thousand years of full recovery, it appeared to have regained its strength from its prime.
What if you catch and eat a guy like that?
It was clear that it would be a great help in the resurrection.
Moreover, this is a spiritual world.
It had the advantage of being able to exercise its original strength while avoiding the limitations of the body.
“Mephisto?”
Lilith found him too late and was startled, but it was already too late.
Quaaaaa!
The darkness surrounding Mephisto expanded dozens and hundreds of times at once and began to take the shape of a giant.
The great devil with the face of a wolf and the horns of a mountain goat roared.
Ooooh!
A loud roar that makes you wonder if your mental world is collapsing like this.
Lilith shouted, somehow suppressing the goosebumps that rose along her skin.
“Mephistopheles! Could it be that you betrayed the demons and joined the Mervingers?」
『Stuck? “Is this the real king?”
Every time Mephisto uttered a single word, demonic energy swirled. The magic energy that Lilith was proud of had already been torn to shreds and there was no trace of it.
‘This is my second time seeing it… but it’s scary.’
Elric was unfamiliar with the majesty of Mephisto, who he usually tormented so much, but at the same time, he felt afraid.
I’m bound to bump into him someday.
『That’s funny, Lilith. There is nothing in this world that can compare to the main king.』
Mephisto flashed his eyes coldly.
『Mervinger and you are ultimately just food for the King who dreams of becoming a great world.』
Lilith forcibly twisted one corner of her lip as she tried to shake off the pressure that made her body feel like it was going to collapse at any moment.
Of course, I couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
“To the subject who became Mervinger’s footstool. “You’re good at talking, aren’t you?”
『Even if you talk a lot, it’s too much. So, that’s enough.』
The light in Mephisto’s eyes became natural fire and burned brightly.
『Die.』
Quaaaa-
Mephisto’s rough paw tore through the space and fell on Lilith’s head.
Lilith forced herself to shake off the pressure and transformed into her main body.
Paaaat!
Then a dark, jet-black snake appears.
It was also a two-headed lion.
Kaaaaagh!
The wolf and the snake meshed together.
Coo coo coo coo!
Then, the energy of the two began to shake my inner world as if it would break.
