◈ Episode 312 Injustice (1)
On the ground, evacuation was in full swing.
The best elite members went down the waterway to wipe out the liberation army, but they couldn’t be complacent.
In addition, the vibration sound periodically heard from the basement was unusual.
It means that the fight that should have ended unilaterally is going on fiercely.
As a result, citizens who were evacuating could not help but tremble in fear.
It was the same for the Seorn students who evacuated to the imperial palace.
Koo-ung! Koo-ung!
“Don’t you think the sound is getting louder?”
“What the hell is going on down there….”
“Everyone, don’t stop and move!”
Some of the knights and guards who were leading the students also felt something serious and spurred their steps.
‘Everyone is getting anxious.’
The air around me was filled with suffocating negative emotions.
The field trip, which should have been enjoyable, turned into hell in less than half a day.
‘I hope this will end safely.’
Line, who was about to take a step, collapsed into her seat without realizing it.
It was because the pain was like being stabbed in the temple with a needle.
Renee grabbed her head with her hand.
“Ugh!”
“Line!”
Erendir, who had been walking with them, came and helped Line.
“are you okay? what’s the matter? You haven’t been hurt anywhere, have you?”
“Oh no. My head just suddenly… …Ugh!”
“Line!”
Line couldn’t answer easily when Erendir called her.
Along with the splitting headache, both eyes felt as if they were on fire.
‘My eyes hurt so much.’
It hurt so much that I felt like I was about to shed tears, but even those tears seemed to have dried up and evaporated from the heat.
The pain that lasted for a while disappeared as if it had been washed away.
In terms of time, it was only a few tens of seconds, but it felt too long, perhaps because the pain was so great.
Renee could barely breathe.
“Rine. Are you really okay? yes?”
“yes yes. It’s okay now.”
“Come on, let’s move. If we fall behind like this, we will only be in trouble.”
Erendir stopped talking as he tried to help Rine up.
There was something strange about Erendir’s expression as he stared at Line.
“senior?”
“Rine. your eyes… ….”
Erendir muttered while looking into Line’s eyes.
Lights like a cluster of twinkling stars floated in Line’s eyes.
Were Rinne’s eyes originally like this? It couldn’t be. Erendir’s senses and time that had been watching her closely were talking. Obviously, Linen’s eyes changed. It is also in a very heterogeneous form.
The moment Erendir was about to ask what had happened, Line’s expression hardened in an instant.
Line’s eyes stared in one direction and spoke in a determined voice.
“senior. Move first.”
“Huh? okay. it should be Rather, your eyes… ….”
“Now is not the time to talk about that. Come on.”
“Oh yes.”
Erendir was taken aback by Line’s resolute actions, but moved along with her touch.
“Still, I’m a senior….”
Despite Erendir’s bewildered and grumbling words, Line couldn’t relax.
I don’t know about the others, but Line definitely saw it.
A gigantic evil being roaring from the depths of this capital city’s depths.
It looked as if the being would break through the ground any minute and erupt like a volcano.
The reason it didn’t was that someone was desperately trying to prevent the presence of evil.
‘Who is it?’
All that Line could see right away was just power embodied in color.
The great evil is pitch black like darkness.
The one who opposes evil was a brilliant golden light.
It casts a dazzling radiance and drives away the darkness, as if standing on the opposite side of the existence of evil.
It felt like something was missing.
But I couldn’t put my mind to rest.
Instinct has been warning me for a while now.
Staying here is dangerous.
* * *
Huge golden palms that fill the field of vision.
Basara realized that it was already too late to evade, and raised his four hands together.
Willingness to resist as much as possible even if it is to be taken as it is.
The body that had finished regenerating raised its terrifying magic power.
The whole body of the demon was enveloped in dark red magic and burned like a flame.
I gathered all my strength.
resistance? No, rather, he intended to pierce that golden palm.
“come!”
Let’s compete to see who is stronger.
Basara’s confidence, which had been so arrogant, gradually diminished as his palm slowly approached.
The moment when the palms of the Tathagata meet the four arms burning with dark red flames.
With a crackling sound, the fingertips were turned into powder and scattered.
“…!”
Basara had no choice but to stare at the scene with her eyes wide open.
Mighty magic, strong body immortality regeneration.
All of that was useless in front of me.
It was only after facing each other that I could feel it.
No matter what this side does, it can never resist that power.
I should have evaded it before the attack was complete, as my instincts told me to do.
In the slowly passing time, Basara’s eyes were filled with golden light.
Turn-up.
Before long, the Buddha’s huge palm completely pressed Basara’s body.
There was no noise from the descent of that huge hand.
There was only the faint sound of the wind, like a butterfly quietly landing on a lotus leaf.
And when the golden hand disappeared before long.
All that was left in place was a huge handprint carved into the ground.
“ha. ha.”
Rudgar sighed.
Behind him, the golden Buddha with a benevolent expression turned into powder of light.
The powder scattered around and beautifully illuminated the interior of the cavity.
The golden powder that weaved between the roots of the World Tree looked like fireflies.
Andrei looked up at the scene with a blurry gaze.
“…So beautiful.”
The sight suddenly brought back memories of the past.
like the twinkling light over there.
He also had a child who was as dazzling as the starlight that illuminated the dark night.
The smiling face of the child, who could no longer be seen, suddenly came to mind.
‘It’s all futile.’
Andrei’s gaze turned to the imprint of his palm on the floor.
There was no trace of Ruifault’s body, which surpassed even that of a sword master, and his terrifying regenerative power.
Literally, it was powdered and disappeared cell by cell.
Was this possible?
A smile formed on Andrei’s lips.
Strangely, Andrei was not upset when the masterpiece of his life had disappeared.
On the contrary, the obsessive-compulsive disorder that had eaten away at him for a long time disappeared and he felt relieved.
Suddenly Andrei remembered why he was here.
At one time, Andrei was a promising mage.
It wasn’t a black magician who was hiding and researching like this.
He was a nobleman and had a lovely late-born daughter.
A lovely daughter who can never be replaced with anything.
His wife, who was weak, passed away shortly after giving birth to a daughter.
At that time, the last will she left was to take care of her daughter.
– Honey, take care of the child.
Andrei raised his daughter with all his heart and soul.
He saved me more than anyone else.
He taught me love more than anyone else.
The daughter was the purpose and everything of Andrei’s life.
The daughter then suffered from an incurable disease.
She tried to find medicine and called a doctor, but her daughter’s condition continued to deteriorate.
Can not be done.
I couldn’t even send that child away like my wife.
Andrei decided to make the cure himself.
There is no disease in the world that cannot be cured.
He was an authority in this area and a praised intellectual.
I analyzed the cause of the disease and looked for ways to treat it, but too much was lacking.
Time material data sample.
Time is all you need to do is sleep less, and ingredients are all you need to spend money on.
Data on whether or not the treatment worked properly was not easily obtainable.
There is a limit to conducting research only with lab rats.
It was important that this worked well for ‘people’.
At that moment, a word passed through Andrei’s mind.
human experiment.
Horrible evils to be committed by corrupted warlocks, taboo for wizards.
If he tried, Andrei would lose a lot.
honor too. Pride too. money too.
It was clear that everything he had built over the decades as Andrei Semov would crumble like a sandcastle.
okay.
At least the line shouldn’t be crossed.
Andrei whispered to himself as if reassuring himself.
That night.
Andrei, who was going to check his daughter’s face, had to stop when he heard a harsh cough coming from his daughter’s room.
Through the gap in the slightly open door, the child was coughing in pain.
The handkerchief covering his mouth was stained with red blood.
The child who looked at himself during the day and smiled vigorously saying that he was okay.
It was a mogol that everyone was dying.
The moment he saw it, Andrei felt something snap in his head.
next day.
Andrei saved the corpse from the back world, avoiding the eyes of others, and then bought the materials.
He ended up conducting forbidden human experiments.
Like a car with broken brakes, Andrei continued to immerse himself in his studies, losing sleep.
First they used corpses, then they continued their experiments on criminals who deserved to die.
Data piled up quickly.
And eventually, when the cure was completed.
Andrei was delighted and set out to find his daughter.
– Andrei Semov. You are arrested on charges of human experimentation, which is banned by the state.
Unless the Imperial Intelligence Service had come to arrest him.
Andrei was seized with the thought that he had been caught, and at the same time that he had to give the cure to his daughter as soon as possible.
So, he subdued all the people in the intelligence department and headed for his mansion.
And when he arrived there, Andrei saw.
The closed eyes of the child who greeted him now, coldly.
– Hey. why are you closing your eyes
Andrei squeezed his daughter’s hand with a trembling hand.
I couldn’t feel any warmth in my cold hands.
-remedy. Here’s a cure. If it’s this, it’s definitely sick… ….
I put medicine in my hand, but the bottle rolled on the floor powerlessly.
– Why? I have been successful in developing That means they have developed a cure for an incurable disease.
He no longer had the daughter he knew.
He no longer smiled at Andrei as his father, nor did he ask to go out looking at the scenery outside the window.
-I didn’t do all that to see a sight like this… …!
Andrei finally held his daughter’s corpse in his arms and wept.
Immediately afterwards, agents from the Imperial Intelligence Service burst into the room.
-It’s here! Andrei Semov is here!
-Arrest! If you resist, you can kill me!
Andrei’s tearful gaze turned to the intelligence agents.
The eyes that define themselves as evil and look at them with contempt.
Andrei’s rage at the sight boiled like lava.
Today I have developed a cure for an incurable disease.
This means that medicine has made great strides.
But why
Why did my daughter have to die?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Why do you let someone who can be saved die, bound by such a trivial morality, even though you can save it?
Wrong.
Even if something goes wrong in this world, it is wrong for a long time.
-okay.
A voice escaped from Andrew’s lips.
Even though I cried so much that I took a break, my voice dripping with hatred and malaise.
– Then I’ll show you. That you were foolish and I was not wrong.
– Stop it!
Intelligence agents and even knights came in, but they were no match for Andrei, a Lexorer wizard.
That day, Andrei Semov, a promising 6th tier wizard, died.
Instead, Andrei Semov, a bioengineering warlock, was born.
‘okay. It did.’
Andrei lowered his head again, reflecting on his past.
There, a man with a shadow was standing close to him.
Rudger Chelsea.
One academy teacher was there.
Rudger stared at Andrei.
Andrei also stared at Rudger.
Rudger didn’t ask why he helped.
I just stared at this wizard who was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion.
It was at that time that Andrei muttered mutteringly.
“Are you going to kill me?”
“I don’t think so.”
“her.”
Whether it was the confidence that came from his own strength or his last sympathy toward him, Andrei did not know.
But Andrei was strangely friendly with this man.
“Have you ever failed to keep what you wanted to protect?”
“….”
“So while you hated the world, did you ever do everything in your power to prove that you weren’t wrong as if you were beaten by evil?”
“….”
When Rudger didn’t answer, Andrei chuckled.
“Looks like everything is there.”
“….”
“I didn’t know at first, but the look in his eyes made me understand. That he resembles me.”
Andrey muttered like someone who had already given up on everything.
“You were no ordinary teacher after all.”
As Andrei muttered, he squeezed out all the magic power left in his right hand and implemented the spell.
It was like a framework that Rudger spread out as if he were teaching his students the source code.
“It is a technique containing the knowledge I have acquired. accept it Any way it will help. Or it doesn’t matter if you disclose it. Then I will be inducted into the Arcane Chamber’s Hall of Fame again.”
“Why are you giving me this?”
Rudger found Andrei’s knowledge to be extraordinary.
In any case, it is the result of a lifetime of research from a Lexarer-class wizard to a warlock.
The weight it carried was never light.
“With that, it would be possible to regain the reputation of the past. At least if you take into account the part you helped in the last fight, at least you can avoid the death penalty.”
Andrei shook his head.
“It wasn’t something I was hoping for in return. It was just that I couldn’t stand it.”
“What do you mean you can’t stand it?”
“What I didn’t keep. And the things the world can’t protect. I suffered from it all.”
Cool.
Andrei coughed, and black blood gushed out.
His body was dying.
Andrei smiled bitterly.
“What I need is neither praise nor great footprints to leave a name in the world. I just wanted to protect what I was holding in these hands.”
“….”
“It must be funny. To commit such atrocities just for the sake of that. Other people won’t understand. Of course I also don’t want to understand. I was sincere the whole time. Because that was everything to me.”
For that reason, I thought it wouldn’t matter if I became enemies with the world.
Even if someone curses and points fingers.
Even if you throw away the filth and go down the thorny path.
I’m willing to endure all of that.
“Are you like that too?”
Andrei’s transparent eyes pierced Ludger.
