New magic system (4)
“Ugh….”
I grabbed my brittle head and stood up.
The smell of the sea filling the tip of his nose made the headache worse.
“Woo-wook…!!”
As soon as I stood up, I vomited at the feeling of my stomach being turned upside down.
Traces of water swept away through cracks in the floor of the naval base.
I laughed at the stupid thought that I had unintentionally contributed to environmental pollution.
‘It’s like this every time.’
It is good to forcibly raise the condition to make the battle smooth, but the price is harsh enough for Lennok.
Not only was his whole body swollen and sore as if it were about to explode, but he also had bruises on his skin from broken bones and joints during the battle with Madrid.
I moved my fingers, which had turned stiff and turned purple, and took out an ampoule of painkillers.
I put another one on the shoulder where the needle mark was clearly visible and waited until then the drug effect started to turn into a state where I could move.
Take out an ointment that is effective for bruises and swelling from the treatment kit for bruises and swelling, apply it, take two antibiotics, and catch your breath.
‘It’s been a while since I took all the medicine I received from the medicine man. I’ll have to find a stronger cure or elixir… … .’
Although it effectively improved mana addiction, it did not solve the fundamental problem of returning to a condition suitable for battle only by borrowing the power of medicine.
Did he come this far without finding a way to solve his life span, which he may have left?
He visited Jindun’s Hanghasasa Labyrinth to confirm even a fragment of the method, but even after realizing the world’s secrets and acquiring the barrier technique, the penalty remained the same.
‘Through Jenny, I’m checking the existence of all of the quest rewards and artifact elixirs that come and go in real time. If you still can’t find a way… … . Is it a pandemonium after all?’
Lennok, who had been leaning against the ruins of the collapsed naval base to catch his breath, struggled to stand up.
Right before she lost consciousness, she contacted Oliviera and placed the seasonal ice jade in the magnetic domain that she had sealed herself.
Since he had severed the image of Madrich to the point where it could never be restored, it wouldn’t be difficult to hand over the traces to her.
In return, I decided to ask her to help open the right eye, so it can’t be helped… … At least I had to see for myself how the course ended.
If Oliviera avoided Lennok’s eyes and did something with Madrid, Lennok would have to take responsibility for the result.
Shoot Aaaaa!!
The seashore near the naval base where the seawater rushes in.
Leaning against a rock on the nearby sandy beach, Lennok looked around with difficulty and soon found the man he was looking for.
The back of Oliviera standing on the calm surface of the water like a ghost and watching the distant horizon.
Lennok stared blankly at the detached figure walking on the water without using any magic power.
[You don’t look like that.]
Calm heights. Oliviera said without turning her head.

Lennok ignored it and asked.
“What about Madrid?”
In exchange for showing Chilchaebo’s evil eye, the terms of the deal were to subdue Madrich and hand over some of the military territories he held into Oliviera’s hands.
In the middle of a life-or-death battle, it’s not easy to care about the other person’s life or death.
Not to mention, Madrich Onion was originally one of the most powerful players for Lennok to face.
Although he was injured after a long war and lived in confinement for more than a few decades, Lenok’s first-hand experience of combat power was at a level that simply could not be explained with such excuses.
Oliveira lightly shook the veil.
[It’s over there. He was waiting for you.]
“…are you waiting? What about the ban?”
Didn’t you say that now that Madrich Onion’s power has been taken from the source, you will be able to talk to him directly without the hindrance of the ban on your own power?
[Madric himself refused.]
She replied with her hands behind her back.
There was a hint of weariness in her voice that she couldn’t hide.
“….”
[There was something I wanted to confirm at the end, so I was holding on to it. It wasn’t a relationship that would end beautifully.] As she
turned around, a thick veil was draped over her face before she knew it.
[Since you kept your promise, I will now take responsibility for the aftermath of all of this.]
Madric Onion is not just a powerful military magician.
The head of a judicial body that once served as the chief justice of a large city, and a tycoon who spread enormous influence everywhere as an executive of Achilles Security Company.
If you deal with such a big man and kill him yourself, it is natural to be concerned about the retaliation or retaliation of those who have known him.
Oliviera offered to take responsibility and the aftermath himself in return for retrieving the command of Madric at the end.
[It’s not difficult. It is always up to the person in charge to bring in a justification and a reason.]
Oliviera muttered as she passed Lennok in a laughing voice.
[You received my request and captured Madrich, and killing him was my decision and decision. Do you understand?]
It is impossible to hide the fact that Lennok fought and won against Madrid.
Is that why Oliviera is going to take only that responsibility and turn the grudge towards the cartel?
Lennok, who was leaning against a rock with his head down, smiled.
“I feel sorry for Virgil. Should I give you a separate blood pack later?”
It’s a cause Even if Oliviera said she would take responsibility, it would be Virgil’s job to take care of the troublesome practical tasks.
It’s interesting to see how far the resourceful vampire’s blood pressure rises, but it’s not a good sign that the vampire’s longevity compared to humans’ lifeline is shrinking.
Even Olivier let out a faint smile at Lennox’s deft reply.
[Unlikely, you are generous. But to Oreiden, such worries are just a luxury.]
“Why?”
[Because he must already feel that the time is not far.]
“….”
Oliviera turned her head away from the silent Lennok.
A sandy beach stretching far behind the collapsed naval base at the back of the seashore.
Even the far-flung landscape of high-rise buildings at the end of the faint horizon.
Even at the southernmost tip of the continent, which is so far away, the landscape of a megalopolis does not disappear and keeps its place.
The unshakable scenery clearly shows how many people fought hard, shedding their blood and lives to take over the hegemony and order of that city.
[It won’t be long before everything that makes up that city will be reorganized once again.]
Her clothes fluttered as she crossed her arms and shook her shoulders.
At the same time, even that figure began to slowly fade from the seat.
[Because everyone will want to leave a meaning before the end approaches. Efforts not to end in echoes will bear fruit in some way
.
As her power fades, the sound of the waves grows louder.
[Until then, I should do what I can.]
“….”
At her words, which felt somewhat strange, Lennok moved on without asking further.
A small sandy beach located at the end of the beach.
The back of a young man with his back to the sea caught my eye between the horizon where the dawn was just beginning to rise.
A precarious shape that seems to disappear over the horizon at any moment. Even after living for over a hundred years, the heart is still that of a young man.
Looking at the back of Madrid, Lennok sat down on the shore with difficulty.
“If you go to the shaman who sells in District 21, you will be able to receive proper treatment.”
The first to speak was the military sage.
Madric turned his head slightly and said with a smile.
“No matter how well you take care of yourself with spiritual magic, there will always be aftereffects… … . If you don’t want to go crazy later, refer to it.”
“Why did you decline the deal?”
Lennok asked instead of answering that.
“Isn’t it because you are so obsessed with life that you were still dreaming?”
“You don’t seem to know what she’s researching yet.”
“….”
Looking at the silent Lennok, Madric shook his head.
“I like not knowing…. Just know that the reason she gave up even the project that depended on the city’s fate was because of that research. That I have no intention of prolonging my life that way.”
Does that mean that Oliviera is also not someone who can be an ally?
I thought I was fully aware that he was a dangerous person, but the words Madric was muttering were somewhat different from that.
“In the long war days, this happened frequently. It’s just my turn now.”
Madric looked at Lennok and then turned his gaze back to the sea.
“The dream I had is not my own, and even if I fail here, someone will still believe that this is the right answer. That is why I have no intention of solving the secrets bound by the taboo at the cost of my life.”
It’s ironic.
Even after stepping down from the position of Chief Justice, I thought that the passion that led Achilles and led the new project would surely accept the terms of the deal.
With the power and influence that Madrid has, wouldn’t there be a chance to greet a better situation somehow if you are alive.
I thought he would take that too and accept this deal, but Madrid were too meek to accept their own ending.
“I get angry at your arrogance for trying to surpass the hope we had together, alone…. Still, I want to ask.”
Madrid asked.
“Why did you have such an image?”
“….”
“Why did you choose that answer? I can’t understand. I have watched countless geniuses and monsters come up with their own answers, but what you want is not a complete answer.”
Madric said again with an expression that could not read his thoughts.
“It is rather like a question that bites its tail and goes back to the beginning. Do you really believe that can be the answer in this world where both sides of cause and effect are closed?”
Lennoc and Madrid know it.
After all, the landscape of the magnetic realm sleeping inside the wizard is a miracle that cannot exist unless Lennok himself draws the shape of an answer to some extent.
That apart from Lennok himself wandering without deciding on an answer, it was vaguely taking shape in his mind.
The lord magician who reached level 8 saw the scenery directly and understood what it meant, but on the contrary, he did not understand.
It must be because he didn’t know if the meaning of the landscape Lennok chose was really possible in this world.
Lennok knew that better than anyone else.
Before I even realized it, my mouth naturally opened first.
“…well. I don’t always calculate and think about those things before deciding.”
From the moment he awakened to his realm of magnetism and fully recognized its potential, Lennock never imagined the moment of showing it to someone else.
When he takes out this realm, it must be the moment of certain victory or the moment when he is driven into a corner so that he can’t promise tomorrow.
If others recognize the existence of the image that resides inside, no one will be able to treat him as the same human being.
However, that lord magician who shook as if he would disappear right in front of his eyes was a being who was temporarily away from all such calculations and boundaries.
Maybe I was able to bring out the words accumulated deep in my heart.
“You just follow what your heart tells you to do.”
“…is it.”
Madric laughed.
“It’s ironic. A wizard as perfect as you is, in the end, more honest with his own wishes than calculations.”
“….”
That’s not wrong.
Various wishes swirling in Lennok’s mind.
Throwing off this damn bondage, moving on to the next world, becoming a great wizard and looking at the end.
Unraveling the secrets of all this and revealing the truth.
I believe that the only possibility to satisfy all those wishes is here.
No further questions and answers were necessary.
Madric, who was still deep in thought with his eyes closed, spoke.
“Even before the project failed, Alkaid was always on the hunt for something.”
“…what?”
“It seemed that he was wary of and afraid of someone invisible. As if there was someone who thought the same way….”
Silence passed.
The moment when even Lennok was unaware of the gap and listened blankly to his words.
said Madric, who opened his eyes.
“Alkaid is not a name for a single person.”
