Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 555
From the End of Failure (2)
“Kaise’s Serum…!!”
“I was lucky. It would have been difficult if Kaise hadn’t smashed all the serum down at the end.”
Kaise actually used all the remaining serum the moment he engaged Felix and disappeared on the spot.
Considering the magical power of retrogression contained in the serum, it is possible that the ability of retrogression was superimposed on itself and moved through the timeline on foot.
“Did you bring such a valuable item during that fierce battle?”
Felix nodded in faint admiration.
“It’s not like I didn’t think about biting into my beak the moment I was covered in blood….”
“It almost became a pelican, not Felix.”
“….”
“….”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Could it be that Sybrid Eco’s sense of humor has reached a serious level?
In the awkward silence, Illya asked again casually.
“Are you going to use Kaise’s serum to find out his intentions?”
“I have no intention of using all of the serum right now. This is a last resort.”
Saying so, Lennok put the serum back into his bosom.
“If Kaise is willing to contact us, he will choose a more intuitive method than a serum he may have stolen. I just have to believe it and think about it some more.”
Having seen Oliviera use the serum to heal her own injuries, Lennok had no intention of wasting this valuable item.
Of course, it is unknown whether the serum will exist intact even after returning to reality, but at least it will serve as a useful consumable in the closed area.
As much as it contains the magical power of the reverse, it is also a valuable item for research.
I don’t have much time, but it’s worth taking the time to investigate.
“Hey, think about it. Has Kaise ever left you a message or showed you room to speak?”
“Um….”
“Felix barely talked to Kaise and innocence was absent. You and I are the only ones who can infer something from Kaise’s behavior.”
“I don’t know…. I also remember what happened back then… … .”
After saying that, Ilya scribbled the full text of the conversation he had with Kaise on the floor and showed it to Lennok.
“At least from inside the power room, Kaise has never shown a suspicious attitude.”
“Certainly, just from this conversation, I can only know that Kaise has business with me.”
Kaise looked at Illya and asked if she was a magician’s ally, and said that she had nothing to do with her because she didn’t know anything.
Conversely, the word itself meant that Lennok still had business.
“As expected, if you left a message, wouldn’t it be Van-sama’s?”
“okay. In the end, I have no choice but to look back on my memories… … .”
While Lennok was lost in thought, Felix rose from his seat and picked up the hammer.
“While you two think, I’ll look around and come back.”
“Are you okay?”
“It’s not enough just to avoid the command. There might be another pursuer.”
Felix laughed as he said that.
“I will stand guard, so I will ask you two to investigate the truth.”
* * *
Early morning after half a day.
foggy street. The group of commanders and the morning air are mixed, making it difficult to distinguish the front.
“Felix.”
“Have you been with me?”
Lennock gestured toward Felix as he returned to his hiding place.
“The weather is cold. Resting inside, though.”
“are you okay. If you keep your senses, you won’t be pursued.”
I needed a place to rest, so I built a hideout. All three of them are skilled at hiding their presence and magical powers.
Unless you were directly discovered by a ghost ship floating in the air, you wouldn’t be caught by a group of commanders.
oh oh oh!!
Felix looked at the shape of a huge ship peeking out from the other side of the downtown area in a whitish tone and said in a choking voice.
“So that means you caught and killed that monster….”
“Strictly speaking, it was a little weaker than that.”
Lennok replied calmly.
Madric Onion had fallen from his prime after decades of not being able to heal from injuries and chronic illnesses sustained during the war.
“The ghost ship I dealt with was neither that large nor capable of flying in the sky. I was just swimming in a stormy sea.”
“It’s just as absurd as that… … .”
Lennox laughed at Felix’s shy reply.
“Perhaps that area is not a combat-specific ability either. The appearance is overwhelming, but the practicality is inferior. I think it may have been modified for search or transport.”
However, even taking that into account, it is obvious that the power difference between the two sides has widened unrealistically.
In fact, it is impossible to achieve the goal through a head-to-head match.
No matter how powerful and transcendent Lenoc may be, dealing with both Madric Onion and Oliviera at once would be suicidal.
Isn’t that why he was trying to find a gap in Kaise’s abnormal behavior?
“Did you get any harvest from the patrol?”
“…no. However, they left marks everywhere that only Azlan could recognize. I can’t help but hope that you find out and find me even if it’s belated… … .”
“The reason I want to find Claude Azlan is not only because I am expecting his help.”
Lennok shook his head.
“Don’t trust him. The 8th level superpowers are overly unstable and chaotic beings. Now that things have turned out like this, the chances of us being of any help are low.”
“Isn’t that the reason why it can show up late now?”
“….”
“I know it well because I have traveled with many strong people. Their whims don’t always work in a negative way. I believe in Azlan-nim.”
it’s a trip
Come to think of it, the old Oliviera saw Felix and said that he was on a pilgrimage.
Maybe the trip that Felix did was not a simple trip in the literal sense.
But instead of asking about the details of the trip, Lennok turned away.
“How was it on the outer boundary of the closed area?”
“It’s not as good as I thought. The water wall we passed through is already completely lost in this timeline. All the rotten groceries have been replaced with new ones.”
Felix let out a small sigh.
“I tried to look as far as I could, but at least there was no area left undivided from the area my eyes could reach.”
“….”
“Perhaps the gap space itself in the closed area continues to expand.”
Does this mean that even the space where reality and the timeline of the past vaguely intertwined has now all turned into the timeline of the past?
Lennok pondered the fact and soon denied the speculation.
“No, it won’t be. If this disparity had spread outside the closed area, the city government would have been forced to intervene additionally.”
“then?”
“Maybe our existence itself is getting used to the past timeline.”
If so, it can explain why superhumans of the past did not recognize the boundary line where the time line was dislocated while patrolling the closed area.
What if the difference between the present and the past becomes indistinguishable as existence itself adjusts to the past timeline?
Realizing that fact, Felix’s complexion hardened slightly.
“Is the retreat actually cut off? In the end, you won’t be able to escape without resolving Kaise’s problem.”
“Maybe. but….”
What does it mean that this phenomenon has been eaten by Lennok, who has the ability to designate a target?
Is Lennok unable to respond to changes in the timeline itself, or is Lennok alone unaffected, unlike others already eroded by the past?
I’d like to look around the outskirts of the closed area myself, but… … .
As the two fell silent, Ilya’s voice called them from behind.
“Ban. We have succeeded in restoring the communication line.”
“A line?”
“We were also looking for a way to contact the outside world. Illya said she would like to touch the communicator some more.”
replied Lennok, turning his back.
“It was said that it was necessary for adjustment, so I roughly wrote down the pattern and flow of magical power around me, but it seems to have worked.”
“…Was it data that could be roughly written down?”
With Felix muttering absurdly, Lennok headed straight into the hideout.
position support position… … !!
Lennok and Ilya’s communicator had been shattered and assembled into an unknown shape on the spot.
Entering the separated space-time, removing the damaged parts, they created a new communicator with intact parts from the communicator of the two people.
[Chiik…lip… … management…there…]
It’s very stuttering, but it’s unmistakably that of Administrator Keegan Grimes.
Even after a long time had passed since the communication was cut off, it was still trying to communicate in this way.
“An error occurs because the gap between the separated timelines cannot be accurately recognized.”
Lennok knelt beside Ilya, taking over the line from the communicator in her stead and adjusting the frequency.
“I have no choice but to adjust the line by sensing the gap with the external time zone I remember. I do.”
It is possible because it does not go back to the real past, but exists in the realm of separation.
However, the frequency that Ilya couldn’t catch even if he used a dragon changed immediately the moment he heard it in Lennok’s hand.
[Curbas Dam. This is Administrator Keegan Grimes. 864th communication attempt. If a response is possible, please contact me.]
“….”
At Keegan’s clear voice, Felix and Illya opened their mouths slightly and turned to Lennok.
Lennok ignored them and immediately picked up the communicator’s microphone.
“Chief Grimes. Respond when you hear it.”
[…] … !!]
He took a deep breath as if he couldn’t believe it.
[Bar Van…Is that Mr. Ban?]
“Yes.”
Lennok didn’t wait for a reply, but immediately gave a brief account of what had happened.
Even at this moment, the parts of the communicator were wearing out in the process of adjusting the frequency in real time.
There will probably be no chance to contact you again once this communication is over.
[Are you talking about the memory of the timeline where Ka Kaise Bajour lives? … ]
Lennock urged the janitor, who was stuttering in awe.
“Either the Senate or the Central Council should inform this fact and demand a solution. The situation itself has become too dangerous for us to do anything about it.”
[…] … .]
An ominous silence that flows without an answer.
Frankly speaking, Lennok did not expect a trick from the Central Council or the Senate to resolve the situation.
If it’s their way I’ve seen so far, they’re great people who will completely evaporate the 25th district and finish the job.
But even knowing that, Lennok entered the area because he saw it as an opportunity to uncover the secrets of the Black Consumer Project himself.
Wasn’t Innocence and Lucinda of the Senate also aware of that and brought Lennok into this operation?
However, as long as communication was connected, it was only necessary to convey the results obtained by this side in order to request information from the other side.
But the tone from the communicator was not that of the janitor Lennok had been waiting for.
[It’s not like I buried the incident in the sand of time for nothing… … .]
Intense brilliance that cannot be hidden even through blurry communications.
Along with that tone, the speed at which parts of the communicator wear out becomes insanely fast.
The shape of an intense six-combat warfare that engulfs the entire space just by resonating.
Lennok realized who the owner of the voice was and involuntarily opened his mouth slightly.
“…Oliviera?”
The chairman of the cartel and a level 8 magician.
The monster that had completed Chilchaebo’s Mystic Eye and reached level 8 again was receiving communications on behalf of the Administrator.
[The stance of taking taboos and secrets is high, but if you don’t want to die, you’d better get out of there soon.] Oliviera
said with a look of joy.
[If Kaise is still ‘alive’ in the timeline, then it’s the worst of the estranged possibilities that can be encountered in the closed area.]
“What does that mean?”
[You don’t know how Kaise lived and how he died. you won’t know in the future we…I’ve been dealing with the failures I’ve achieved through the project that way.]
Oliviera said that herself and smiled lowly as if slightly surprised.
[I can already say this far, so the restrictions have already started to loosen?]
“…”
[It’s about time. It’s not like I don’t want to check for myself how pathetic I was decades ago… … .]
I felt as if Oliviera’s ridicule, which had begun with a sneer, had grown slightly.
[Looks like there are passengers. There must be no reason to repeat the same insolence.]
“A passenger? What does that mean?”
Illya asked urgently if she felt something from those words, but Oliviera did not answer.
[Still, if you still have thoughts, you’d better look carefully at Kaise’s message. That guy has always solved problems that way.]
Dudududuk!!
At that moment, all parts of the communicator were crossed in all directions, broken, and shattered as they were.
“ah….”
The appearance of Illya looking somewhat devastated.
Lennok left her behind and inspected the broken communicator’s parts in silence.
“Wrong. The magic power transmission and response circuit was completely destroyed. At this rate, it would be faster for me to make magic myself.”
“What the hell does it mean to be a timeline where Kaise lives?”
asked Felix with a dazed expression.
“So you’re saying that someone else comes into the area and sees Kaise, who is already dead?”
“….”
Lennok did not carelessly answer Felix’s guess. Instead, he thought of the last words Oliviera had left.
“Kaise’s message… … message… … .”
Given Oliviera’s words, it’s quite possible that Casey left a message for Lennoc in some way.
But if it was delivered at a moment that even Lennok was not aware of, where would it be?
I quietly close my eyes and look back at everything that happened after meeting Kaise from the beginning.
Lennok, who recalled his memories like a video right before the space-time fixation device activated, finally realized where he had missed.
“…Right.”
An instantaneous realm where only Kaise and Lennok can recognize each other, yet infinitely close to immateriality.
Kaise had already left a message in a way that others would never notice, but where Lennok would surely notice.
Lennok picked up his phone and quickly sent Darby his thoughts.
‘Firewall inside the power plant. Connect again and show me.’
[Yes?]
‘Is it possible to visualize the firewall code pattern?’
The cyber spirit didn’t ask twice. Instead, the code of the independent network firewall, which had been hacked until just before, was projected over the screen of the mobile phone.
Lennok’s gaze, which had been scanning the code obtained through hacking at high speed, stopped at the last line of the code.
At the end of the code sequence, which was made up of an unknown sequence of letters and numbers, a letter that Lennok could recognize stood out.
[Cathedral south of Ramahal District. Noon.]
“….”
[Come here if you want to end this timeline.]
