Call to Order (1)
Lennok was galloping down a street in the rain.
Despite the pouring rain, Lennok’s bike rides down the empty road without hesitation.
Woo woo woo!!
The sound of the engine echoes clearly even among the sound of rain.
As the noise recedes as it sinks into the outskirts of the city, it becomes louder.
flash!!
A flash of lightning flashed through the dark clouds, followed by a deafening roar of thunder.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a natural phenomenon rather than a lightning strike I made myself.
Thinking so, Lennox jerked the throttle of his bike.
The black body, buried in the darkness, took off the road and ran between empty construction boards.
A bony steel frame passes through a thick concrete forest.
Every time lightning flashes in the darkness, the eyes watching Lennok on the steel frame increase one by one.
[Master.]
“I know.”
[…] … .]
Superhumans donning sharp visors despite the rain.
The momentum of the magical power flowing from the bodies of those who looked down at Lenok, each with a different light in their eyes, was infinitely sharp.
Sharp magic power, as if it would attack Lennok at any moment. But even so, I watch Lennok leave the construction site without moving at all.
Darby murmured after searching the database and confirming his identity.
[They are members of Aegis, a special agency directly under the city government. I know you didn’t participate in this operation, but what’s
going on ?] … . He must have come to see me.”
[Master?]
“Because you know that the prohibition law will be lifted sooner or later. Couldn’t you have come to say hello before that?”
[…] … I don’t think they’re such bright people.]
Lennok also burst into laughter at Darby’s unflattering words.
“That’s what it says. Since there may be things we will encounter often in the future, I must have wanted to make a snow stamp in advance.”
[…] … .]
“There must have been organizations that didn’t care about the privileges of agents.”
If you belong to the special agency, you should already know the inside story of this incident and information about Lennok, who stood at the center of it.
After the prohibition law is lifted, it is not only the conflict between the good and the bad that we have to worry about.
In the meantime, it is a situation that is enough to cause infighting between the talented people of Yangji, who have been content with baring their teeth toward each other, tied to the leash of privilege.
The power accumulated over decades is on the verge of overflowing. It wasn’t strange where the blade, which had lost its way, turned.
It wasn’t that Lennok didn’t want to see where the confusion would begin and end, but… …
“I have more urgent things to do now. I have no choice but to leave it to Jenny.”
Clap!!
Store the bike and in an instant change the clothes and face to Evan’s.
At the same time, with the help of Darby, the entire nearby CCTV and personal information are disturbed, Lennok’s destination is twisted, and he reaches out to the city government network to change the traces and schedule.
Get out of the outskirts and head out of the undeveloped district.
A vast plateau with a completely different direction from the edge of the desert area where mobile fortresses collapsed.
Hwaaak!
After the rain stopped and the stars in the night sky began to shine brightly, Lennok muttered to himself, standing below the plateau.
“It’s just as Lapis told me. I didn’t expect the rain to stop at such an exact time… … .”
[Because I am a lighthouse keeper looking at the sea beyond the sky. It is not difficult to predict the movement of the stars or the weather.]
The weather in megacities is difficult to predict due to the influence of magnetic storms that pass nearby.
Even Darby said that making a weather forecasting algorithm itself is meaningless.
Nevertheless, even Lennok did not know how far Lapis’s eyes reached, as he had notified Lennok of the time when the rain had stopped.
“Let’s start right away. I will draw Jin, so please review the location.”
tight!
Lennok, who had bitten his thumb and bled without hesitation, started drawing the law circle in the empty field near the plateau.
The distance from here to the North Continent is well over thousands of kilometers. It’s never a distance that you can move barefoot.
However, despite this, Lapis issued a summons to Lennok.
Of course, there was also a suitable means of transportation.
A small elite who accepted the name of the watcher in the name of Lapis. Wonho’s call that transcended time and space created by the power of the lighthouse keeper.
The principle is closer to summoning than spatial transfer.
Only a few supermen who satisfy certain conditions can be called by the lighthouse keeper and temporarily sit by his side.
Except for the fact that preparations were required on the other side for the use of the formula, there was no doubt that it was a summoning technique with tremendous efficiency.
“It would have been difficult if I hadn’t studied summoning magic with Aris, but… … . Can even this be called a condition?”
Lennok murmured as he made a summoning circle made of his own blood without hesitation.
Spatial shift over thousands of kilometers. Beyond blinking and teleporting, it’s a level of magic that wouldn’t be strange to call it a warp.
The problem is that in order to use this type of magic, even the summoner who is called must have some knowledge of summoning magic.
There was no way to know right away whether Lapis was aware of this or if it was just a coincidence.
[Couldn’t there be a simpler reason than that the child knows the Master’s accomplishments?]
“What does that mean?”
[It would be possible to do the same thing now if the master summoner could check the conditions required for summoning in advance.]
Lennok, who immediately understood Darby’s words, nodded.
“That means they checked to see if I met the conditions before the call-up and issued the call-up order. plausible.”
[If that’s the reason why they summoned archers who didn’t meet the conditions in advance, then it’s understandable.]
“Arrowers… … .”
Lennok laughed at the unfamiliar expression.
Although Darby’s intelligence makes it rather odd that she can’t remember other people’s names, she insists on calling other humans by their outward characteristics.
“It’s almost over. I’ll warm up the necessary magic in advance, so I’ll ask you to take care of the summoning circle.”
Lennok sat down near a clearing, closed his eyes, and focused, leaving the details to Darby.
After Darby awakened and grew up in the spirit realm, Lennok was trying to forcefully entrust some of his work to Darby.
It is the time when you have just developed your own image and materialized your realm.
Lennok was vaguely aware that it was desirable to give Darby as many experiences as possible through various works and attempts.
As Darby waggled his three tails and polished the details of the summoning circle, Lennok raised his mana from deep inside his body.
It wasn’t to consume mana during the summoning process.
Rather, Lennok focused on forming a thick film by wrapping the mana he had raised so far outside his body, rather than wrapping it tightly over his skin.
It is to fly over a far distance that cannot be realized by human senses.
There wouldn’t be any problems with this summoning process itself, which is done by the supernormal ability of the lighthouse keeper, but at the point of arrival, there was a possibility that the body would not be able to accept the change due to the different environment and pressure.
It is a fragile body that complains of abnormal symptoms even at a slight increase in altitude. It was necessary to oil it in advance in case of an unexpected situation.
[It’s over.]
While Lennok sits in the center of the summoning circle and calmly gathers his mind, Darby climbs on top of Lennok’s head and looks up at the sky.
[There is still some time left until the constellations are aligned. I’ll have to wait a bit.]
“It’s my first time using a spell based on constellation arrays, so I’m looking forward to it… … I hope it starts soon.”
[Didn’t the mercenary commander tell you not to be impatient?]
Darby asked. Lennok nodded.
“yes. but…. After hearing the story of Antares, I remembered it.”
Lennok answered, looking up at the starry night sky.
“That means I don’t have time to relax either.”
[…] … .]
A penalty chosen as a reward for acquiring a talent that will rise to the edge of the sky.
Among them, [Jae-in-bakmyeong], which gnaws at Lennok’s lifespan, is a bond that is stronger than any other restraints or constraints.
It is the most fatal wedge that makes it impossible to guess the remaining time for him.
Until now, I tried to focus on the problem in front of me, dismissing it as a problem that could not be solved right away, but now that I have reached the Ascension and have obtained the clue of the highest rank, it is something that cannot be ignored forever.
“I haven’t told Antares yet, but maybe I’ll be gone sooner than he did.”
[master….]
“So you have to get the answer when the opportunity comes. In the North Continent, where we are heading now.”
Lennok’s eyes slowly sank as he stared at the horizon of the endless plateau.
Antares told Lennok only part of the truth, but those few words gave Lennok an idea of what was going on in the North.
Level 9 Ascendant. Among them, one of the hermits who had not moved for a long time must have stood up.
If such a big man moved, it would be understandable that Evelyn, who felt so much responsibility for the order of this city, was away.
If a transcendentalist who stopped paying attention to people and tried to ascend to heaven moved, there must be a reason for that.
“There are questions that cannot be answered without meeting the Ascendant in person. It’s something you should try at least once.”
There are still mountains of things that Lennok doesn’t know.
The meaning of the will left by Cheon Gyeon in those days when he had not yet properly adapted to this city.
What does the word alkyd mean? Where on earth is the meaning of ascension that ascenders wish for?
There was an opportunity right in front of me that might answer all those questions.
Even if it wasn’t for the summoning order for the blue eye, it was an opportunity that had to be seized, even if it was ignoring the future chaos that would unfold in the megalopolis.
Darby, who had gently stroked Lennok’s hair with his tail, suddenly lifted his head.
[Master time… … .]
“…okay. Let’s begin.”
As Lapis previously announced, Lennok confirmed that the position of the constellation had entered the normal orbit, and immediately began to activate the summoning circle.
A mid-to-large-scale summoning magic that targets the caster himself.
However, the place where the direction is headed is not the northern continental snowfield beyond thousands of kilometers, where even the location cannot be accurately determined.
Rather, the thoughts shot straight up overhead without the slightest error headed for the constellations pouring over the night sky.
The light from the summoning circle, which was shot hundreds of meters up, scattered and disappeared, and at the same time, the constellations in the night sky suddenly began to accelerate.
Woooooooooooo!!!
Starlight, which remained only as a point, quickly rotates along the celestial sphere, leaving a long halo of light.
Thousands of starlight that covered the night sky drew an elongated curve and re-illuminated the light completely on the ground.
Aaaaaaaaaaa!!
The ground Lennok is sitting on shakes violently, and the speed at which the starlight rotates faster and faster.
Because it rotates quickly, the whole sky is turned upside down, going back and forth between day and night, stars rising and rising again, and the sun rising again.
Except for the ground inside the summoning circle, the scenery passed by so quickly that I could not recognize it with my own two eyes, and I ran nonstop in all directions.
Koo Goo Goo!!
It was not wrong to say that the constellations that Antares had mentioned in passing would move.
A summoning of observers, which is accomplished through the supernormal ability of the lighthouse keeper.
The principle of the technique was a summoning magic that transcends space by overturning the entire night sky after fixing the position of the constellations and the ground.
A privilege granted only to lighthouse keepers who endlessly look up at the sky, estimate the position of the stars, and monitor the scenery of the open sea.
Constellation magic that uses astronomy to the limit by synchronizing the location of the celestial sphere with a part of the ground, then flipping the entire virtual celestial sphere and transferring it to the location of the ground as it is.
Although the location of the constellations and time and place are delicately adjusted, and the subject must have a knowledge of the summoning circle, which is a complicated condition.
If that condition is met, it is possible to summon the opponent to the lighthouse keeper’s side no matter how far away they are.
Whoo Woo-wook… … !!
Even though I had wrapped my whole body in magic beforehand, I felt my ears deafening and the air around me cooled down.
As the altitude changes and the temperature drops, the environment itself is changing drastically.
A truly transcendent supernatural ability that goes beyond the level of using geographical features and adjusts the position of the constellations and the celestial sphere in the sky.
It is a miracle that makes you realize the fragments of the long history of the magic and spells accumulated by humans in this world.
Lennok tried desperately not to forget any of the sensations and viewpoints he was feeling and accepting.
A supernatural ability inherited from generation to generation by successive lighthouse keepers, starting with the Ascendant’s Cheongyeon.
If you can understand, analyze, and quantify it, it won’t be impossible to copy at least a part of it and hold it in your hands.
And finally, the moment he confirmed that the summoning circle had stopped working, Lennok slowly opened his closed eyes-
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
I blocked the explosion falling in front of my eyes with my shield.
“….”
[…] … .]
While the mages and spirits, who have lost their words, try to fill in the gaps in information, fierce shouts resonate from everywhere.
“Don’t miss it!!”
“You must capture alive, not kill!”
“Catch the lighthouse keeper! He is the child who can get closest to our longing!!”
A girl with her blue hair tied back turned her back to those shouts and smiled shyly at Lennok.
“that…It’s been a while, Evan?”
