Furnace (2)
Evelyn’s body disappears on the spot.
Dig!
A flash of green light pierced through the flames of a brazier overflowing with flames in an instant.
An elegant movement that seems to directly create a place to move forward, rather than avoiding a space without flames.
It is the trace of the benefactor that reminded Lennok of what a true battle between superhumans is.
Evelyn arrived at the wide open iron door of the furnace, put her left hand on the ground, twisted her body sideways, and kicked the left iron door with the acceleration she had gathered.
Kwaaaaang!!
As circular waves exploded in three layers, the iron door on the left was slammed into the furnace as if it were being crumpled.
No matter how hard he strengthened his body with magic and delivered the power to run intact, that alone was an incredible amount of shock.
It must be related to the power of the ability contained in the microcosm of the inner world that Evelyn handles.
But the problem was with the iron door on the right.
Even if it was Evelyn, it would be difficult to continuously exert the same amount of impact as just before.
However, the heat was concentrated at the entrance of the half-closed furnace, and the left iron door began to melt first.
If it continues like this, one plate will be destroyed before both doors of the furnace are closed.
The method Eveline chose was simple.
After temporarily releasing the parts of the suit he was wearing, he attached it to his right arm, then held on to the other door and pushed it as it was.
Chiyiyi profit!!!
The immeasurable heat instantly rides Evelyn’s right arm and becomes a huge flame, burning the arm inside the suit in an instant.
Needless to say what level of pain the flesh would burn with sober mind.
However, Evelyn only faintly frowned, conversely concentrating even more on the flames of the brazier that were sprayed out, and closed the iron door.
coo-ooh!!
Even in that state, I was holding on to the door so that it would not open again.
“…!!”
Truly superhuman patience. It may not be that there is no pain, but the fact that he endured that pain with sober mind proves how strong the archer’s mental strength is.
Even Lennok admired his determination to clearly see what he had to do and take action without hesitation.
As she believed in Lennok and started using her hands first, Lennok had no choice but to respond at least.
Lennok took out four talismans from inside his coat and slammed them into the talismans with strong magic power.
Some of the sets of Spell Enhancement Catalysts obtained as a condition of doing Evelyn’s favor.
It hurts to consume one of them here, but I’ll just have to get it back from her later.
Follow me!!
Four amulets escaped from Lennok’s hand and clung to the iron door in a disorderly manner.
Surprisingly, the mana that was expressed at the location of the talisman that had been thrown at random began to suppress the mana of the furnace.
The purple demon’s eye rotates violently and in an instant penetrates the heat flow inside the furnace.
It wasn’t that Lennok had been playing in the library all day looking at books.
The Mystic Eye, which was newly opened through sparring with Zionis. This is because finding out the specific operating principle and expression conditions was also an important issue.
As a result, Lennok was able to conclude what the magic eye rotating in his left pupil meant.
A kaleidoscope looking at the countless turning points in Lennok’s image.
Part of the ability to measure the endlessly expanding possibilities is reduced and implemented as a kind of sense.
Purple Mystic Eye is a kind of area projection that brings and visualizes a part of an image from a local aspect.
Now, I think I can understand the power of the demonic eye that Oliveira possessed to some extent.
The magic eye of Chilchaebo she had was probably a kind of ‘work’ made much more elaborately in a similar way to Lennok.
The results that will vary depending on Lenok’s choice are colored in red and blue colors, predicting and confirming how the heat flow inside the furnace will expand.
Images that have reached the limit of intuition and answers.
A mutant created by overflowing talent beyond the limit and flowing into the magic pass connected to the left pupil.
Although it is impossible to use it for a long time or observe a wide range.
If you observe a range of about the size of a furnace and draw a predictable flow chart in your head-
PABABABABAK!!
As Lennok’s hands move intricately, he manipulates the magic contained in the four amulets at the same time.
Every time he manipulated magic, he watched, observed, and controlled the heat of the furnace, which changed chaotically, from a point of view that was one step ahead.
Every time the magical power extending from the talisman reached the inside of the furnace, the red and blue areas flashed like crazy, but Lennok didn’t hesitate at all.
Visualization of predictions using a uniquely powerful intuition. Ordinary wizards end up in ambiguous eyes, and even delusions of words turn into observations close to foreknowledge within Lennok.

[Gyeolyeolsaek (結來闋塞)]
The magic contained in the four-pronged amulet pierces the inside of the furnace like an awl and cuts off the flow of heat swirling inside.
Lennok’s mana, which stirred the hot wind that flowed endlessly through the iron door, hardened and blocked it.
“Closed door.”
so-so-so-so!!!
As soon as the entrance to the furnace was completely sealed with magical crystals, the heat of the furnace, which had no place to go and began to rampage, resonated inside and emitted a terrifying sound.
coo coo cooo coo!!!!
A huge vibration pounded the entire control room as if the closed iron door would be smashed at any moment, but even so, no more heat leaked out.
The magical energy that Lenok stirred inside the furnace controls the heat to the point where it is dangerous, and circulates the heat itself that exploded as it is.
In the back of the control room, the other mages, who had only to endure the heat of the furnace, watched without blinking.
“…what am i watching? Are you saying that this is an area that can be calculated?”
“I can’t help but think that I gambled with my life…Even so, it is an unbelievable miracle.”
“The heat is spinning inside. Could it be that he was aiming for this from the beginning… … ?”
It is not a quantity of calories that can be controlled with one human’s magical power.
In fact, it is a miracle that can be said to have blocked the crater of a volcano by itself.
This was the ideal that directly embodied the absurd ideal of overpowering power with technological sophistication, even for a moment.
The moment the other wizards widened their eyes so as not to miss the flow even for a moment.
Realizing that the furnace had calmed down to some extent, the management team’s wizards rushed in and pulled out all the countless wires connected to the furnace.
Pusssss!!
The trembling heat of the furnace rotates as it is and spreads out to the outlet, slowly sinking.
It was only when the heat, which had not been enough to completely cut off the furnace’s power source, began to spurt out safely, that I could see the surrounding landscape properly.
The wounded groaned while clutching their burnt parts. A medical team arrives late and moves people to the emergency room.
On top of that, the management team started to repair the furnace while hearing harsh reprimands from the other wizards.
All of them were looking down at this place with eyes of wonder.
Just now, the two of them had an accident that could have completely destroyed this mage tower, so they blocked it with only skill and determination.
The explosion of a core facility in charge of a part of the steel industry is not just an accident, but a natural disaster.
It is not strange if the furnace that draws in the heat of the volcano accidentally explodes and the entire volcanic area is swept away by a disaster.
“Everyone please get out of the way…!!”
“Sir Zionis!”
When Gionis appeared late and threw the staff he was holding into the outlet, the vibration that had gradually subsided completely disappeared and the son-in-law became quiet.
Lennok looked at Gionis, who showed up a little late and stumbled, with a nonchalant expression.
In the end, the furnace was calmed down without his help, but was it a coincidence that it only showed up after things started to calm down?
But there were more important things than thinking about it right now.
“What about Eveline’s arm?”
Didn’t he completely catch the heat of the furnace that was running rampant with one arm and close the remaining door?
If there were no special measures, it would not be strange even if the whole body burned and disappeared.
“…I’m okay.”
Evelyn, who was sitting behind Lennok, smiled tiredly.
“I used all my mana, but I let the heat flow.”
“….”
“There’s nothing I can do about suffering from burnout instead.”
As she said, Evelyn’s suit parts were completely burnt to ashes, while her arms did not appear to be seriously injured except for the cracked skin.
Perhaps, at the same time as holding on to the door of the furnace, the microcosm’s ability was rotated to the limit and the heat flowed away.
Ibelin’s ability in the microcosm is unknown, but it is a type of method that controls the direction of a specific force.
She probably minimized the damage by spraying the heat pouring into her arm with her own ability the moment she grabbed the iron door of the furnace.
As if to support that guess, there were long traces of melting left behind her feet, like a rocket extending from them.
Interference ability at the level of directly touching the heat flow, not manipulation.
It’s a heat manipulation that I can’t guarantee that even Lenok can pull off, but it’s hard to explain how he managed to preserve his arm in the heat of the furnace unless he was that level of skill.
It was proof that she, too, had a family in the field of dealing with the body.
“The problem isn’t my arm, it could be that the accident just wasn’t an accident.”
Evelyn pursed her lips and whispered to Lennok.
“I don’t know if you’ve seen it too, but the look on Gionis’ face right before the furnace went out of control….”
“You were laughing.”
“….”
It was a face that looked like it wouldn’t bleed even if it was stabbed with a needle, but that’s why Lennok didn’t miss even the faint emotions he expelled.
If only his mouth had faintly twisted as he turned his gaze toward the furnace right before the accident.
Can this accident be considered a coincidence?
The moment Evelyn was about to continue talking.
“Here you are.”
Supported by other wizards, Gionis approached Ibelin.
He continued to stumble, as if he couldn’t walk properly, and bowed his head with a pale complexion.
“I have nothing to say to you two. To think that a customer at the Magic Tower would be entrusted with handling such a dangerous accident… … .”
“…It’s unavoidable. The damage to the tower will not be small due to this incident, but I hope the matter will be settled smoothly.”
Evelyn answered, and Gionis immediately continued.
“In the case of any injuries or aftereffects you may have suffered as a result of this incident, the Mage Tower will take responsibility and pay for all costs. In addition, the pre-determined residence time in the tower will be greatly increased until the two of you recover.”
“That means….”
“I really appreciate what happened today.”
At the same time as Gionis said that, other wizards supported the two and began to move them to the infirmary.
Lennok and Evelyn were released after undergoing a thorough examination for almost half a day.
Until yesterday, he was just a simple guest, but now he is a hero who prevented an accident in which the entire mage tower might explode.
It was only natural that the other wizards were extremely hospitable.
The two could also hear the situation in which things went naturally in the medical class.
In the process of investigating an attempted furnace explosion, traces of intrusion were discovered, and even rumors that the traces lead to caves near the volcanic zone.
Evelyn, who was holding the fruit basket given to her by the magicians of the medical team as a gift, looked away with a transparent expression.
“What do you think of Ban?”
“There is nothing to see.”
Lennok smiled as he had no injuries but had bandages applied to his face.
“It’s clear that he’s a guy who’s suspicious in many ways. Until now, it was difficult to even know its purpose, but today has made it clear.”
“…what?”
“They are trying to test our capabilities. Continuing from yesterday… … . That is very blatantly.”
Lennok’s eyes shone coldly through the bandages.
Evelyn laughed.
“It’s fine. I can guess what he’s hiding now. It’s okay if you make me speak with your own mouth.”
“….”
“The testimonies of the wizards who said that the day felt like a long day at the barrier ignition point that completely covered the crater of the missing person that was created inside the tower…If you put them all together and think about it, you probably have an answer above this.”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
Evelyn tilted her head.
“You mean there’s some way to find out what Gionis is hiding at this point?”
At her words, Lennok grinned as he put his hand on Evelyn’s shoulder.
“I have a plan.”
* * *
The very next day when the furnace explosion occurred.
Evelyn immediately left the Mage Tower with the agents she brought with her.
They accepted the offer made by Gionis just before the accident and started investigating the caves near the volcanic area.
As such an explosion occurred, it was justified to recognize the importance of looking around the nearby cave and look around the outside.
Gionis immediately accepted her offer, although at first he pretended to be concerned about her health.
The only guests left in this spacious tower are Mouser, who helps to sort things out in the furnace control room, and Lennok, who goes in and out of the infirmary pretending that his injuries are not getting better.
Lennok was lost in thought as he walked through the cluttered corridors of the Mage Tower.
‘The wizard I met in the practice area said that the day felt too long. Too much to just pass by… … It’s a very suspicious phenomenon.’
Considering that the sun seems to set quickly between mountains and valleys, it is not appropriate for the environment of the Mage Tower to make the day feel long.
In addition, especially if the magician, whose body clock runs fairly accurately, felt that way.
In addition, the sense of déjà vu that Lennok felt when projecting the structure of the barrier ignition yoseonjin that covered the entire crater.
‘The upper half of the hemispherical barrier was open. At first, I thought it was simply a measure to mix the outside air, but now that I think about it, that’s… … .’
Wasn’t it a measure to avoid the ‘something’ located at the top of the barrier from the interception of the ignition yoseonjin?
If you’ve reached that point, it’s an instant to come to a conclusion.
Above the five-pronged magic tower.
Something was hidden in the crater’s sky, where updrafts of ash and dust winds were created.
