Episode 122
“Fun.”
Looking at Mikhail, who was engrossed in work, Root smiled with satisfaction.
All kinds of letters were floating in the air around Mikhail, tightly wrapping him.
When it disappears, a new character appears. The place of the interpreted character is quickly replaced by a new one.
It gets more complicated as time goes on.
[What’s interesting?]
“That guy. Did I say twenty-two now? I mean young He’s quite young, even within a very short human lifespan.”
[That’s right.]
“That guy is in the 7th circle.”
Root’s eyes narrowed.
“I don’t underestimate humans. Because they have potential we don’t know about. But that’s different. Completely out of specification. If it was just the 7th circle, I would have thought it was a monster, but… …”
[You may have wanted to?]
“It is different in cases where you have succeeded in interpreting a divine object at once like that.”
7 circles in your 20s?
It is true that growth is unreasonable and not common sense.
But that’s a possibility.
He does not underestimate human potential, and the realm of the Circle belongs to that category of possibility.
however.
‘This is different.’
Divinity is a power far out of that category.
To put it simply, divine objects were powers that reached miracles beyond magic.
Magic unravels the structure.
how the world goes
How does the phenomenon occur and how can it be used?
Magic started from such a question in the first place.
Miracles, on the other hand, are different.
Miracle means the phenomenon itself.
Magic is a position to interpret the phenomenon, but a miracle is the phenomenon itself.
It is inevitably much more difficult than the magic it is trying to explain.
But that god.
Miracles were now being easily interpreted in that human hand.
In this case, there is only one.
‘…It’s the case that the spirit’s level has already transcended that of humans.’
Not simply approaching magic as magic, but dealing with it from the perspective of a transcendent.
Then it makes sense to be so relaxed.
Mayril is trying to interpret divine things from the standpoint of ‘magic’, but that human is just interpreting them from a higher position.
The standing point is different.
As if reading Root’s thoughts, Set spoke.
[The original hero is not ordinary.]
“Hah, I’ve seen enough heroes. If that was at the level of a hero, I wouldn’t have said such a thing.”
Root smiled bitterly.
“…It can’t even be called human anymore. It doesn’t matter if that hero is conscious or not.”
[…] ….]
“In the first place.”
At that time, Root’s gaze turned toward the set.
His gaze was quite cold.
“If he was at the level of a normal human, it would make no sense that you were here.”
[ah….]
At that, Set flinched.
[That’s….]
“That was your punishment.”
Set lowered his head with eyes that looked like they would shed tears any moment.
Yes, there was such a past.
No, it cannot be dismissed simply as the past.
All of that still affects me.
had to disappear
…I should have said that.
But she didn’t.
“If possible, I would like to atone for my sins with your own hands. What are you thinking that is not funny?”
[…] …It’s a little different.]
Instead of answering, Root looked at Set quietly.
and after a while
“What would it be?”
Instead of getting angry, he nodded and affirmed Set’s words.
“It’s said that what happened that day was a punishment, but you got caught up in it, after all.”
[No I… ….]
“Stop.”
Root interrupted her as she tried to say something more.
“Let’s do it here. If I do more here, nothing good will come out anyway.”
[…] …Yeah.]
“It’s been a long time. It was quite hot at the time, but it calmed down a bit over time. It’s not like he didn’t know that outcome. You never know. perhaps…”
The gaze stopped on Mikhail.
“At that time, even that might have been his arrangement.”
[…] …You can blame me more.]
“What is the meaning of that now?”
[haha….]
Set let out a bitter laugh at Root’s words.
She recalled the past for a moment.
okay.
Needless to say more.
…At least for now.
* * *
Kitt!
Magic inevitably resembles the characteristics of its creator.
Even if it’s the same magic, someone’s magic is quick and someone’s is destructive.
Same goes for Merrill.
“Ha, that’s really blatant.”
The greedy black sheep.
I know Mayril’s true name.
‘Puppet’, ‘Meyril’, ‘Puppeteer’.
There are many different types of words that refer to this demon lord, but there is only one true name, which is the soul of Mayril.
‘Of course, Mayril’s side must have predicted that fact to some extent.’
That’s why you don’t show your face in front of me.
Like Baalzebub, he wondered if his true name would be discovered and he would be victimized by the eulogy.
Numerous letters floating in the air.
‘It’s fun.’
Among them, there were toxic black shimmering ones.
Characters that have already been interpreted.
Originally, for me, all of these things would have been something that could only be discerned through clarification and interpretation.
Of course, he would not have been able to follow Mayril, who would have come first and penetrated the labyrinth.
In fact, when I checked, a considerable area of the labyrinth had already been clarified.
The labyrinth is complex.
The structure changes in seconds, and many things are different from before.
Therefore, to interpret the labyrinth here is not to find a way.
It is to create a path to the destination in the structure that changes in seconds.
It fixes the changing space and makes that space unchanging.
Until I saw it, Meiril was about halfway successful.
‘Half. Considering that he couldn’t even find his name, he struggled quite a bit.’
but what about this
Now that I’ve touched it, that must be difficult.
Mayril probably expected me to come to Gherton and had a plan from the beginning.
it will be of no use.
From the moment I came here and met Root, everything was meaningless.
I saw everything in my eyes.
A map of this labyrinth.
How Mayril clears the road and how she fixes it… …All of that is clearly visible.
And now.
“Hey this way.”
The road Meiril was trying to penetrate shone brightly in front of my eyes.
Her unique aura cannot be hidden.
The road that Merrill pierced.
can be knocked down at any time.
‘It’s fun.’
I can see things that I couldn’t see even when I was confident that I had reached the 9th circle and reached the pinnacle of human magic.
The funny thing is that everything I see and do now is not in the realm of ‘calculation’.
It would be nice if it was instinct.
My body responds by itself and I put many things in my eyes. Things like that felt so obvious.
reply.
The first time I heard that from Hekau, I didn’t directly realize it.
‘I think I’ll understand as time goes on.’
What exactly is that demigod and what can I do with it?
I began to gnaw away at Meylil’s path on the map in front of me, bit by bit.
don’t break it all at once
If you show too much gap, the other side will give up easily.
that’s not what i want
Mayril still needed to pay more attention to this side.
You’ll soon realize I’m playing with myself, but… ….
‘It will all be over by then.’
For that reason, I made a promise to the two of them before coming here.
“Where do you know how to do it?”
I smiled thinking of the two of them, who were in the middle of wrapping their heads and trying to resolve the situation.
* * *
“Elderly, I felt it recently. Mihail must have a psychopath. ”
Rian gritted her teeth and said.
“It doesn’t make sense that he doesn’t know about this situation. I’m sure he threw it out to solve it on his own! He’s a very antisocial bastard.”
“Prince Heo Lian, what are you talking about? You’re a psychopath.”
Oops, was it too harsh?
Lian looked at the butler while thinking about that.
No matter how bad you are, swearing at my son-in-law… ….
“Apologize to the psychopath!”
“….”
Looking at the butler, who demanded an apology for being a psychopath, Lian shut his mouth.
“They are just people whose feelings are a bit vague, but they all live together! It’s not an example to compare with the young master, that’s!”
“Is that so…?”
“Yes it is!”
As the butler said that, he talked about Mikhail in detail for a while.
It was a beautiful back story that made Lian shed tears.
After relaxing for a while, the two went straight to the point.
“Anyway, it’s not normal.”
I grasped that the gigantic suggestion pervaded the girten itself.
“It is. At this level of suggestion, if things go wrong, there might be a way to make the slut itself hostage.”
for example.
Or ordering all the people affected by suggestion in Gurton to commit suicide.
Mayril will do anything to scratch Mikhail.
To the devil, life is less than a stone on the street.
There would be no hesitation in using it.
“However, it seems that the Great Devil is not aware of us, as it is not a situation where he is concerned. That’s fortunate.”
“It’s because of him.”
“Yes, probably intentionally, the Bocchan showed something about himself. Otherwise, it’s hard to explain the current situation where all eyes are focused on it in an instant… .”
After saying that, the butler quickly shook his head.
This is an opportunity that the young master gave.
It had to be useful somehow.
‘Gerton is in a state of suggestion. but…It’s not as hopeless as the first impression.’
Surprisingly worth it
Well, that’s why the youngster came to this place on purpose.
“Haha, can’t we just cut off all the demons’ heads?”
– You can cut it and go.
“…?!”
At that moment, Lian was startled by the sudden voice from his shoulder.
I peeked and saw a small-sized fairy sitting there.
“What the fuck.”
– What is it? It’s a fairy I’m working remotely.
Part of Mikhail’s Fairy Dirge.
– I’ve slipped it in beforehand.
“hmm.”
Ryan nodded.
Mikhail said.
-For your reference, I also heard all the gossip.
oh shit
Ryan thought about that for a moment and quickly changed the subject.
“By the way, why don’t you just cut off the head?”
– Of course, but you can’t cut it without thinking.
Mikhail looked at the butler.
-Butler Originally, Twilight is quite specialized in ambush among various magics, isn’t it?
“Hmm, that’s right.”
-Then here’s the problem. No matter how great the devil is, is Banpuni’s control over his mind perfect?
“Hoo.”
The butler laughed as if it were funny.
“Even taking control of your mind is only halfway. Do you want to say that?”
-It’s impossible to make it perfect, but it’s possible to make it look perfect.
At that, the butler nodded as if he understood.
“It’s a totem.”
A medium used in witchcraft.
Girten had countless such totems due to the nature of the city.
If Meyril used those originally in the guts… ….
-If you’re a butler, you’ll be able to specify the location of the totem.
“But still, it won’t be easy to break the totem while everyone’s mind is seized… …”
Mayril’s followers are hiding all over the place.
You already know something about them.
-Haha Butler. Where is this place?
Mikhail said as if the butler’s words were funny.
“That’s the labyrinth city…ah.”
Only then did I realize
This is a labyrinth that cannot be properly navigated without a guide.
If only I could know the way.
“…It’s not difficult to sneak in and out.”
-yes.
Mikhail laughed.
This fairy, who is here just in time, is a part of Michael and can serve as a guide.
Certainly, if there was a fairy, it wouldn’t be difficult to break the totem and break Gutten’s hold on his mind.
Mikhail said.
-Then let’s begin.
Great mage who transcends by regression
