The great mage who transcends by returning Chapter 186
The end of violence always leaves nothing but futility.
But even so, the chain of violence does not end.
What a pity.
What is the stupidity of human beings who repeat things even though they know they are wrong?
okay.
Human greed is endless and always repeats the same mistakes… ….
[No bullshit.]
“Um.”
I returned to reality at the end of the set.
In front of me was a group of people kneeling respectfully, literally with musk bowls.
“my…It’s a good match… ….”
“Dot is…don’t do it… ….”
I’ve said it many times, but there is no magic in the world that tastes as good as magic missiles.
It has almost no lethal power unless it is forcibly increased, but its power is not low at all.
It’s perfect for winning.
It’s not Circle 1 magic for nothing.
Circle 1 is the best!
The mana requirement is also the lowest, and the killing power is moderately zero!
“So who sent you?”
“We are the action crew members of < Placebo >…Kehehe?!”
Just as it was, I instantly slammed the man I just mentioned with a magic missile.
Okay. because it can be restored.
Right now, there is an expert who can be said to be the best in the world in terms of recovery and blessings standing next to me.
“You know that’s not the answer I want.”
“That that….”
Anyway, the underworld guild called < Placebo > is good.
It must be one of Bonama and Kellibos’ sidekicks.
But what I want to know is not whether these guys have a relationship with Kelibos or not.
“We are the last. It’s just an act of going out to collect debt. Now I don’t know the details really!”
“…Hmm.”
I said to Daedalus, who looked at them with a complicated expression.
“How did you come to be in debt to these guys?”
“…While I was in the middle of the crowd, the disciple held out his hand. He told me to arrange a suitable place for him to do something with it.”
I watched them silently.
can you not know this
When I looked away, they were sweating profusely and looking restless.
“Have you tasted less of Magic Missile?”
“That’s right! It’s true that Icarus-sama is entangled, damn it!”
Apparently, this Icarus was the name of the disciple.
Daedalus said with his own mouth that there was something conflicting.
If the conflict is still going on… ….
“Senior, when do you think it will be possible to mine the primordial Arcanum?”
“I’m sorry, but I think I’ll have to wait a week. The hero has definitely improved my condition, but I still haven’t recovered… ….”
“great.”
If that’s the case, it’s like a week.
I didn’t have any intention of going out with only Youngseok anyway.
Besides, isn’t it a situation that has been half-confirmed that the devil is involved in this incident?
I had no intention of leaving until I firmly rooted it out.
‘There’s a lot you can do in a week or so. First of all… ….’
I looked at the group and said.
“Let’s share roles.”
“How about role division?”
I pointed out each member of the party and assigned a role to them.
“For now, Ariandel, please concentrate on treating the elderly. For the sake of the plan, the recovery of the elderly comes first.”
“Yes, I will.”
“You know the butler, right? It’s something you’ve always been up to now.”
“Ah, that’s information. Well, that’s because there is information that can only be obtained by running on one’s feet.”
The butler nodded and immediately disappeared.
If you’re a butler, you’ll figure it out. It is also clear what Ryan and Aileen will do.
I looked at them and said.
“You two stay here too.”
“…what shall we do?”
“What to do? I have to learn.”
I pointed towards Daedalus.
“Isn’t he the ‘weapon crusher’ who was said to have never been defeated against a knight in his heyday?”
“…ah.”
“Both of them use swords, so it will be a good opportunity. One way or another, the experience and knowledge of that old man will be helpful to you guys.”
The more experience and knowledge, the better.
And none of us can definitely help these two rise.
The butler and I are magicians, and Ariandel is also a saint, even if he has a rough corner.
But Daedalus is different.
Even if your arm hasn’t recovered right away, there must be many things you can tell those two.
“Daedalus, can you teach these two?”
“It doesn’t matter… ….”
Even as he answered that, he seemed somewhat unsure.
I read the log about ‘Weapon Shredder’.
In the record, he was not so confident and timid.
Repeated failures and betrayals.
It must have been like this at the end of all those things piled up and piled up for a long time.
I looked at him and said.
“This is the process, Mr. Daedalus.”
“What do you mean….”
“Whatever it is, your recent failures don’t define you.”
At my words, Daedalus’ eyes shook slightly.
“A process is a process after all. nothing is over You know very well that failure can make you stronger.”
“that…I know.”
Daedalus is a being who has lived for a long time.
A dwarf’s lifespan is quite long, if not as long as an elf’s.
Of course, you must have had a lot of experience.
You must have had more diverse experiences than me.
But even so, I was sure. As much as it is in despair and frustration failure, I am qualified to give advice.
If I was completely out of it, maybe not, but somehow I got up and moved on.
“The warrior….”
Daedalus looked at me for a moment with complicated eyes.
Then I tried to say something, but… ….
“…no nothing.”
He immediately shook his head.
I didn’t answer otherwise.
That would have been enough to answer my request.
“Then I will try. I will pass on my experience and knowledge to these two. In the process, I also… …There might be something to be gained.”
“thank you.”
That’s it.
It’s not just Rihanna and Eileen.
Daedalus will also gain something by teaching them.
“So what are you going to do?”
“I have to do what I always do.”
As I said that, I used the power of the new ‘Mirage’ I got from the last tomb.
Then, naturally, the shape of my body begins to change.
An action captain named ‘Sampson’ who was thrown over there.
“…uh?”
Seeing this, Ryan widened his eyes.
“You think you’ve been learning something bizarre again? Is it like fantasy magic?”
“No, it’s higher than that.”
The voice also changed to fit that Sampson.
It’s funny. Especially in that the power of this ‘mirage’ does not require any calculations like fantasy magic.
I said to Ryan, pointing to Samson over there.
“Put that away. I’m going to go to the dark guild doing < placebo > or something instead of that guy.”
“…What are you going to do?”
“I told you. Do what you do.”
I said that and smiled.
“I’m going to go and fuck you.”
I’ve always liked tipping other people’s tables.
* * *
Guild leader Bacchus from < Placebo >.
He counted his gold coins today, laughing at his satisfactory earnings.
Even if there is money, there is not enough of it.
There is nothing in the world that cannot be done with money, and everything is driven by money… ….
“Khehehe.”
look Isn’t it money that brought him to this point, who was just a low-class life wandering around the back alleys?
trick people into lending money
It makes them slaves by adding interest on the loaned money endlessly.
In this way, even if the number of slaves was increased, money came in in piles.
Human rights? Justice? admit?
It’s no use.
The important thing is whether it is money or not.
The same is true of the words of an old man called Daedalus this time.
Isn’t it like a slave to worry about useless things and go wild?
But that was then.
“Bacchus.”
Suddenly a voice came from behind.
For a moment, he trembled, but then smiled.
Gradually I got used to this.
“Are you here?”
Something moved slowly in the dark.
A beard that grows haphazardly on gray hair.
Both eyes were stained black, and only the pupils glowed bright red.
“…Mr. Icarus.”
“How did you do it?”
“Well, it is the same this time. You will definitely trample the old man, and you will not have the slightest thought of recovering. hehe really… …It was a firm decision. As expected of a respected member of the city… …Big, big?!”
“Shut up.”
In an instant, he came right in front of Bacchus’ nose and grabbed his neck.
Bacchus had no choice but to struggle with his neck lifted in the air, unable to resist.
“Kuheugh…! Poetry was a mistake… …is. please forgive me… ….”
“I don’t remember ever allowing you to say that. Got it? I mean, it’s not something like you to intervene presumptuously.”
“I’m sorry….”
With an expression as if looking at filthy filth, he loosened his grip on Bacchus’ neck.
“Keah keuh uh uh uh uh…!”
Bacchus slumped on the floor and breathed heavily.
“You just have to be faithful to what I have entrusted to you. keep in mind If you go any further, you will return to that day as the trash of the past.”
At those words, Bacchus’ face turned pale.
Trash from the past… ….
Absolutely not.
At the point of realizing that fact, he was desperately begging without even realizing it.
“Sorry! sorry! please please that much… …!”
“If you know, shut up and report.”
He looked down at Bacchus with cold eyes and asked.
“What about the ingredients?”
“I’ve got quite a bit of it! It’s a bit lacking, but I think I’ll be able to fill it up soon enough to be satisfied!”
“Give me another day. Make up for the rest within one day.”
At those words, Bacchus nodded his head.
After all, there is no option to rebel against that ‘Ikaros’.
No, to be precise… ….
‘…The existence behind me.’
An infinitely sinister and terrible existence lurks behind that Icarus.
Her role is to secure the ‘material’ necessary for the plan that the existence is in progress.
yeah don’t forget
He trembled and stood up.
Before I knew it, the figure of Icarus had disappeared without a trace.
“Re-material….”
He got up and thought urgently of his ‘next plan’.
“Ingredients…We have to collect them.”
* * *
“Hmm, surprisingly plausible.”
After arriving at < Placebo >, I leisurely looked around.
First of all, no one suspected me.
Because he was clearly taking the form of their leader, Samson.
[There will be nothing to be found out. ‘Mirage’ is not new for nothing.]
‘I know.’
Mirage’s ability is definitely excellent. The more I used it, the more clearly I could feel it.
no one
I didn’t notice that I wasn’t ‘Sampson’.
This isn’t just about mimicking looks or voices.
The moment I take the form of another person using a mirage, the people around me naturally assume that I am that other person.
In other words, ‘Mirage’ is not just a mimicry, but also has the effect of hinting at the surroundings.
What a force.
Whatever.
‘Then I need to take a good look… ….’
The Darkside of Malien.
Judging from the information I heard while roughly beating them up, this < Placebo > is a well-known underworld guild in Malien.
In other words, there is a high possibility that it is connected to all kinds of dirty things in Malien.
Then what should I check?
first….
“Leader.”
But at that time, Samson’s men who came into the guild with me smiled and said to me.
“Aren’t you going today?”
“What where?”
“Ah, pretend not to know again.”
He made a disgusting expression on his face and pointed down.
“There you say ‘material’. Material.”
