Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine
Episode 720 Burglary (13)
A stairway of flame unfolds before your eyes with the words that you will reproduce the message of the seventh sun.
But even after waiting, there was no voice.
A huge firebird propped up the rising small earth and flapped its wings slowly.
Tatiana muttered as she gazed at the stairway spreading in front of her eyes.
“…How did this happen?”
“I think it’s a procedure that automatically precedes after the Phoenix Hall works.”
said Lennok, staring uncomfortably at the burning stairs.
“If you think of replaying a message, doesn’t it mean something is coming down the stairs?”
“Then I’ll have to wait a bit.”
Wheein!!
Little by little, the higher the altitude, the more painful the wind blows.
“….”
“….”
After waiting for about five minutes, the two realized that their guess was wrong.
Lennok murmured.
“I hope this….”
“It sounds like you’re telling us to climb the stairs ourselves.”
Tatiana scratched her cheek.
“Maybe he left a message using stepping on the stairs as a trigger.”
“If you want to hear a message, take the stairs?”
Lennok frowned.
“Looking at it now, the 7th pagoda owner was a very strange person. It seems I misunderstood the person.”
“It’s such a disgusting thing…?”
Tatiana shrugged at Lennok, bewildered.
“What are you going to do? If you don’t want to do it, I’ll do it for you.”
“…no. I go first.”
As the authority of the Phoenix Hall was transferred to Lennok, there is a possibility that even if Tatiana stepped forward, it would not work.
There is no need to ignore the possibility of the magic procedure being twisted.
Whoo!!
As I guessed, the moment I stepped onto the stairs, I felt a slight shiver in the air.
Vibration, as if someone were picking out a tone to convey a message.
The more you step on the stairs one by one and go up into the air, the clearer it becomes.
Lennok murmured, not moving up even three steps.
“I don’t know why they adopted this irrational method of communication. It’s a waste of time.”
“Is it that hard to move your body that much? Shall we slow down then?”
Tatiana, who had been following behind, laughed and wiped away sweat, and Lenok shook his head.
“…If you’re just playing a message, there’s no reason to set up such a cumbersome trigger. I thought he was the eccentric of the previous tower owner-”
The moment Lennok said that and stepped on the stairs a few more times.
[From the first time I entered the tower.]
A faint female voice rang in my ears.
[I wasn’t interested in being responsible for anything.]
“….”
The voice disappeared leaving only that one word.
Tatiana, as if hearing the voice, looked up at Lennok with a look of surprise.
As I slowly stepped back up the stairs, I heard the voice again as if I had used it as a play switch.
[It was the same even after I became the top owner. I’m not good at writing things down. I’m not even used to it.]
The voice I hear every time I walk down the stairs one by one.
This blunt yet low woman’s voice must be the voice of the 7th master of the Blaber Magic Tower.
Will I be able to hear all the messages left by the owner of the tower after walking up all the stairs in front of me?
“It’s awful… … .”
The moment I forgot Lennok’s voice and muttered that.
Tower owner whispered as if stabbing the core at once.
[But even so, leaving this message now… … It’s because I judged that there was room for my magic to be misused even after I died.]
“….”
Room for abuse.
It was a message he left while thinking of an ominous future, but ironically, the tower owner accurately foresaw that future.
In fact, the fact that the substance left after her death was used as a part of the engine must not have been voluntary.
While Tatiana’s expression hardened, the voice continued.
[Someone must have foreseen the possibility of pioneering the sea from my abilities.]
“….”
[Someone must have found clues to withstand the spirit pressure in my past.]
Before I knew it, Lennok was silently climbing the stairs.
I slowly focus on the resounding voice as I sweat and exhale with difficulty.
[I also coveted the memories I knew because I was born outside the continent.]
Did the 7th tower owner not come from the continent, but from an unexplored country?
He knew that there was another land outside the continent, but it was the first time he had met someone from there, even indirectly.
Even while he was lost in thought, the message continued.
[It wasn’t that I didn’t think of him either, but I buried it because it wasn’t possible in my generation,]
she said.
[But it will be different after I die. There really won’t be much time left then.]
“….”
Are you saying that there was a special thing that was possible with the tower owner’s ability, and that he was prepared for it because he thought it would be abused in the future?
It was a clear, vague explanation that didn’t directly address the subject, but Lennok immediately understood what it meant.
opening the sea. Meaning of enduring under spiritual pressure. The circumstance that the phoenix was used as a satellite engine.
The tower owner’s words hinted at the possibility that her magic might be able to survive even in the open sea.
[You may be wondering why I chose this cumbersome method. I understand. I also hated moving my body.]
A voice mixed with faint laughter.
Before Lennok could laugh at the sudden feeling of inner intimacy, she said again.
[However, this is one of the shapes of the quest that hints at the end. I didn’t know it before, but sometimes there are words that can only be conveyed in this way.]
“Seeking… … ?”
[The same is true of human life and ours,]
she murmured.
[I can’t live doing only what I want to do. I realized it too late… … .]
“….”
[You hope that doesn’t happen.]
Topju’s voice gradually faded.
[I regretted it in the end.]
With that, the message ended… …
Before he knew it, Lennok had reached the end of the stairs.
Lennok, who was looking up at the sky at the end of the stairway of flames, was quietly called by Tatiana from behind.
“…half.”
I am still sweating, short of breath, and my legs are shaking.
Unpleasant sensation no matter how many times you think about it.
But sometimes the thoughts running through your head take precedence over the pain in your body.
The message left by the 7th tower owner was ambiguous, roundabout, and slightly out of line with the essence.
It was perfectly clear that she wanted to warn.
Even the fact that he had regrets until he died for what he hadn’t done.
The exact meaning of that will remain in the hall of the phoenix created by her will.
“…go down.”
Lennok finally cleared his mind and turned his head.
“Because I feel like I’ve heard everything I hear.”
* * *
It is difficult to know that going down is as difficult as going up without experiencing it.
Sometimes descending is more dangerous than climbing, and you have to be careful.
At the end of the stairs that disappeared as soon as the tower owner’s message ended, the two of them could barely step on the ground again.
“Why, why am I so short of breath….”
“….”
Lennok didn’t say anything, just sat quietly on a nearby rock.
Tatiana, who was lying on the floor, reached for Lennok, who had taken out a cigarette.
“Just one stick of that.”
“…I guess you liked what you smoked last time.”
Lennok smiled and took out a cigarette from his pocket and threw it.
Kurleung!!
Tatiana, sitting against the rolling engine with a heavy roar, took a cigarette and lit it.
“Whoa…I’ve been curious about this before, what is this really made of?”
asked Tatiana, who let out smoke in satisfaction.
“I’ve handled drugs like this a few times on the central front, but most of them were trash worse than drugs.”
“I guess so.”
In the first place, most of the products commonly used as tobacco were made to inhale narcotic plants or catalysts cheaply.
Didn’t Lennok, too, survive the day smoking cheap drugs when he had just arrived in the Balkans?
“It’s not a drug, but it’s not a drug either. It’s more like a stimulant, but it doesn’t have strong side effects… … .”
“Because it’s not something made for money in the first place.”
Lennok also answered, sitting in front of Tatiana, smoking a cigarette.
“I buy catalysts and materials that come up on auctions on the fly and combine them myself. It is mass-produced once it is made, but each time it is experimented with changing ingredients and efficacy.”
“You mean this is the thing you’ve reached through trial and error?”
Lennok nodded, watching Tatiana smoke with a satisfied smile.
Lennok became more talkative thanks to finding out the value of the beginning of the year after a long time and meeting someone who was interested in him.
“There is still room for improvement, but the destination and direction itself have been set to some extent. After adjusting efficacy and side effects to an appropriate level, we are continuing to change fuel economy and efficiency.”
“That’s a funny word.”
Tatiana laughed.
“It looks a bit like your magic, if you ask me.”
“….”
The look of Lennok who suddenly shuts his mouth.
Tatiana, slightly surprised, glanced up.
“Didn’t I say something wrong?”
“…no. No way.”
Lennok smiled, biting down on the tobacco and tilting his head back.
“I was just a little surprised because I thought about it from time to time in the past.”
Finding the necessary conditions and materials and repeating various experiments and attempts to reduce errors and errors.
The process of constantly reviewing the direction you have thought of before and repeating it until you reach the desired level.
As Tatiana said, the process is similar to the way Lenok researched and developed the magic system.
Could it be that such an attitude had permeated Lennok himself unknowingly while he was manufacturing tobacco and other medicines to use himself?
Tatiana immediately pointed out the words that Lennok had also been aware of at some point but had no chance to say.
“What was that compliment?”
Tatiana smiled and tapped Lennok on the shoulder.
Looking at her like that, Lennok smoked the rest of the tobacco and stood up.
“Okay, look around. Now the scenery is definitely a bit better.”
wow… … !!
A small island engulfed in flames rose high enough to see the entire enclosed area.
The sun rising over the horizon mingled with the cool morning air and faded.
Even the scenery of the disastrous ruins and the garbage dump spreading out on the ground is just far away when viewed from above.
Tatiana looked around in surprise.
“This….”
“There must be a reason you were so obsessed with Dead Rise.”
Lennok laughed.
“Performance enough to enter the tower’s solar system and temporarily establish a domain. At this level, it would have been a good idea to use it as a branch of the Magic Tower.”
The overwhelming advantage of building a mage tower and declaring a domain to obtain part of the sky.
The fact that such a miracle could be imitated simply by activating the mind substance of the tower as power.
I thought this kind of result would come out at the point of figuring out Dead Rise’s plan, but it’s true that it feels more surprising when I actually see it.
However, Phoenix didn’t like Lennok’s words, so he landed on the engine and flapped his wings.
[It is possible to perform better performance when there is a higher level of suitability.]
“I guess so.”
[Please withdraw comments that may question the performance of this system.]
“….”
Oddly enough, the remark seems obsessed with the output and performance of the system.
While Lennok was contemplating whether he should turn off the system at all, Tatiana smiled troubledly.
“I think it probably reflects the personality of the previous tower owner to some extent.”
Tatiana, rubbing her brow with a tired look and stepping back, said.
“I’ve never met him myself, but I hear he’s a pretty diligent person.”
“…I don’t really agree with the message I heard earlier.”
Lennok’s horse, Tatiana, laughed bitterly.
“well…As far as I know, maybe-”
[She was a good wizard.]
A low voice came out of nowhere.
The answer seemed to sound from the other side of the sky, not the engine of the Phoenix Hall.
“…!!!”
Tatiana, whose face hardened, jumped up and raised her magic power.
But the voice spoke slowly, not caring about Tatiana’s reaction.
[He was an outstanding disciple, a kind motive, and a benevolent sister. He was also the unlucky tower owner who was swept away by the trend of the times.]
“Uh, how…!!”
In a moment, his expression turned pale. With trembling hands, he desperately begins to sign.
Seeing Tatiana like that, Lennok grabbed her by the shoulders and turned her back.
“Tatiana calm down.”
“Ban must run away immediately!! Now this voice… … !!!”
[However, he was a terrible person as a teacher.]
At that moment, the voice resounding from the other side of the sphere subsided coldly.
[I was a pitiful person, but…I couldn’t accept that fact.]
Roaring!!!
There was a sound like something burning in the distance.
The moment I realized that it was a golden age resounding through the medium of the shining sun on the other side.
Something bright red rose from the edge of the horizon in the form of a red pillar.
The prominences that rose up against the sun instantly swelled in size and raged as a huge sea of flames.
Doo doo doo doo!!!!
A sea of fire approaching, almost sweeping across the plain of scrap metal.
In an instant, it devours the ruined theme park and heats up the whole world.
Kuhwaaaaaaaa!!!
The flames that flooded the ground turned even the sky red and burned everything around in an instant.
Hundreds of thousands of ashes rose up and scattered across the reddish sky, engulfing the
completely ruined facilities and ruins of the theme park with burning images.
Koo Goo Goo!!
A person sits on top of a sea of red flames that flooded and swallowed up the ground in an instant, with his hands behind his back.
A bizarre shape with the whole body tattered and torn apart.
It was too weak and fluttering to be called the owner who rode on the sea of fire.
“….”
Lenok was able to realize the identity of the human riding on the sea of fire only after confirming its appearance through magic detection.
A bizarre figure with his arms and legs staggering like a doll with his chest stained red as if he had coughed up a handful of black blood.
I remember that face with the hair clinging to it in a mess.
One of the five rosary beads of the Magic Tower. Duren.
An Aspect Wizard whose heart stopped and died after failing to deploy the magnetic field while fighting Lennok a while ago.
The corpse, which should have already died and lost its power, was standing up again and burning up the entire theme park.
Kiki!!
Duren’s head, which was staggering along the rolling sea of fire, headed for Tatiana, who was standing under the launching pad as if it were being forcibly fixed.
At the moment when Tatiana shook her shoulders in shock, Duren’s low, soft voice came from Duren.
[Tatiana.]
The voice of someone completely different from Duren’s voice that Lennok remembered.
Someone completely different from the rosary he killed is conveying that intention instead.
The timbre of his voice mixed with a faint laugh.
[It’s been a while since I’ve seen your face. How have you been?]
“…Master.”
Tatiana gritted her teeth and answered.
“What is the person who should be on the front line doing in this city?”
A transcendental being powerful enough to convey his will to the other side of the simple sphere of the Phoenix Hall.
A possessor of sensibilities twisted enough to forcibly manipulate the corpse of a dead rosary and raise it up.
A transcendent flame magic user who could turn an enclosed area into a sea of fire without even reaching this place himself.
The Blaber Magic Tower Master appeared at this place acting as his will.
