Handbook (4)
A gentle impression that is rare in a jungle like this.
It is a face that does not feel uncomfortable at all even if it is helping people in a relief field, not a battlefield.
The woman swept her hair in an elegant flick, looked around in a relaxed manner, and held out her hand to Lennok.
“Are you in charge of this matter? nice to meet you. It’s the first time I’ve worked with rogues, so there must be a lot of rudeness. But please take care of me.”
“….”
Lennok was silent instead of replying to the woman who had already begun to excuse himself.
The woman nodded with a strange smile at Lennok’s refusal to shake hands.
“Whoops…. It seems that this kind of greeting is not in vogue these days. Otherwise, how can I greet myself so blatantly-”
“Did you come under the orders of the religious leader?”
Lennok immediately cut her off.
The clown said the person who will help them. The very sudden existence of the Church.
Even the various advices mentioned by the headmaster’s memories in Balkan.
Teacher Guido was undoubtedly aware of this incident and knew that a conclusion would be drawn sooner or later.
The last thing he said at that time that there would be something to hold hands was the cooperation between Pandaemonium and the Guido Church.
Cooperation between two organizations that moved wildly with ambitious goals that others could not even dream of.
It’s hard to believe when you consider that each other’s desires are completely different, but the procession of priests who appeared in front of them made it impossible to think of any other possibility.
“If there is anything to do, start quickly.”
Saying so, Lennok glanced down at the bottom of the plaza.
“Probably neither one of them will last long.”
It was not Lennok, but the clown, who was being hit and tumbled here and there between the clashes of the two Ascendants, but the fact that he was giving Lennok his heyday in the midst of it was absurd.
With the power obtained by offering dozens of Glenn’s hearts as human sacrifices, he is enduring all the attacks and damages pouring on him with magic tricks.
“Is that so.”
The woman stared into Lennok’s darkly shining eyes through the mask and nodded slowly.
“Anyway, it seems that the secular world has changed a lot more pragmatically than when I was there. Keep things short and simple.”
[Kiyaahiah !!]
The priest turned back to the heyday of screams.
“It’s too bad. If this was where I lived, I wouldn’t have given up so easily.”
“what?”
“Your heretic is right. We’re running out of time, so let’s start quickly.”
Along with her words, the priests who gathered behind her and put their hands together parted like a wave and retreated.
In the center of the priests, someone who had been silent until now without saying anything appeared.
“…Ugh.”
A wheelchair made of thin bones.
A young man wriggling faintly on top of a poorly built wheel that looked like it would collapse at any moment.
Unknown ancient letters densely engraved on a skinny body wearing a hospital gown.
It had a terrible appearance, with both eyes sunken and stitched together, as if eyelids were sewn together after gouging out.
The holes in the body, such as the mouth, nose and ears, are covered with wet cotton, and only occasionally moaning incomprehensible.
The appearance of a patient who was completely different from the appearance of the most tidy priests.
However, Lennok sensed the energy flowing from the inside of the man rather than his appearance, and hardened his complexion.
Walter Martinez, a missionary who succeeded in the descent of the apostle from Palgoong Fortress.
A vague sense of kinship was felt between Walter, who had changed into the shape of a giant crustacean jellyfish, and the patient in front of him.
Naturally, words referring to the church’s special force flowed from Lennok’s mouth.
“Apostle….”
“Oh, I see you have met the nobles of our church.”
The woman smiled and reached out her hand to the crown of the twitching man.
“I don’t know if you know, but many nobles among us who have come to obey God’s will can’t control their madness.”
Chii profit!!
At that moment, countless ancient characters densely engraved on the man’s skin are sucked into the woman’s hand that stretches over the top of his head.
Whenever the letters move, the man’s skin tears and reveals the red flesh, but the woman does not stop despite the man struggling.
“Among them, the 6 apostles who are gathered here are cases where their egos have been completely destroyed due to their exceptionally strong power, and they are barely controlling their movements even at the church headquarters.”
“….”
Then, realizing what the woman was talking about, Lennok fell silent.
The battle between the two monsters rampaging in the center of a ruined ancient civilization is already out of human hands.
That’s why the church came with the intention of throwing the uncontrollable apostle into the middle of the battlefield as a weapon.
Can we call this cooperation?
From the standpoint of the church, it is no different than finding a trash can to appropriately dispose of power that cannot be properly used.
While Lennok was immersed in such thoughts, the woman who had collected ancient characters from the man’s body slowly stepped back.
“You’d better stay away. Since all of the sealed orbs that inhibit metabolism have been released, it will not be long before you wake up.”
“….”
However, the woman did not back down from the man even though she said that.
Lennok also ignored her words and studied the reaction of the apostle sitting in the wheelchair.
Although the skin was torn and the whole body was covered in blood, as she said, the seal was released, and all parts of the body began to regenerate rapidly in an instant.
support position… … !!
The bony, dry muscles swelled up and the torn skin was restored in an instant.
The sunken eyelids swell, and the eyes that had been stitched open spontaneously, and the lens regenerates inside them.
“ah….”
The man let out a low moan and spat out the cotton in his mouth, then looked up at the woman with blurry pupils that had just regenerated.
“Seina…?”
“Yes, it is me.”
The woman called Seina answered right away.
The man stared at her face, then looked down at his rapidly recovering body once more before asking.
“This time…Are you okay?”
“After a while, you won’t be able to regain your senses again.”
Seina said with a smile on her face.
Contrary to her calm expression, her hands behind her back were trembling as if she was trying to hide her emotions.
“If you have any last words, I will listen.”
“okay….”
The man put on a thoughtful expression and smiled.
“A long time ago…There was a time when I went on a trip with the principal and the three of us.”
The fattened face was quite handsome even to Lennok.
The man muttered as he naturally stood up from the wheelchair.
“I was very happy to be able to recall that memory after a long time. Please tell him that too.”
“….”
Instead of answering, Seina silently lowered her head. Her expression, hidden by her hair, was no longer visible.
The man who glanced around at the completely destroyed jungle nodded.
“You know what to do.”
The man casually looked back at Lennok and said with a grin.
“I am ready. Shall we go right away?”
The man didn’t ask who Lennok was, why he was here, or what he was going to do.
He just talked to Lennok like a friend, as if he already understood everything.
Even though we are having a short conversation, a pleasant atmosphere comes from somewhere. He seemed to know who he was without even asking.
Before becoming an apostle, he was probably a person loved by many people.
“…When that one starts, this side will prepare right away.”
The man also nodded at Lennok’s answer.
“It won’t take long. Revelations will come again as soon as they know that I have regained consciousness.”
Without waiting for an answer, the man muttered blankly.
“It was long…. We don’t regret our choice, but it’s been so long… … . On the one hand, I feel relieved.”
coo coo coo… … !!
At that moment, an overwhelming force begins to surge from inside the man all of a sudden.
A mighty output, as if it was transmitted all at once from a faraway place.
The body of a man in a hospital gown was being torn to pieces, and at the same time, a massive monster made of hair and muscles protruded out.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa…!!!”
A beast with three horned heads like a goat. The eyes are stained black and run down as if completely engulfed in madness.
Every time he stomped on the ground with his barbed hooves, the ground rocked like waves, shaking the surface of the jungle.
Doo doo doo!!!
The moment when the other priests, including women, stepped back and the apostle, who had snorted violently, bowed his head deeply.
The 6 apostles with black eyes resembling goats rammed into the body of the giant snake and exploded shockwaves.
Kwaaaaaang!!!
At the same time, the ground in the area of hundreds of meters tilted sharply, overturning the huge plaza where Pyeonran and Gyebaek collided.
The giant body of Pyeonram, which was absorbed in dealing with Gyebaek while carrying the magician who tied the scales and the well, could not withstand the impact and bent and twisted greatly.
The snake’s body, hundreds of meters long, convulsed as it rolled around the perimeter of the plaza, causing the jungle to shake like an earthquake.
Koo Goo Goo Goo!!!
The handbook also immediately saw through the identity of the mountain goat that suddenly appeared and brainwashed it in an angry tone.
“To think that a monster chosen by the end dares to stand in front of me…!!”
“Whoa!!”
“The wicked power of the open sea cannot pass by the well. It is my duty to shoulder the right to inherit the ancestors!!”
Faaaaa!!!
Between the scales of the handbook, innumerable incantation letters rise and shine, and thick plant stems grow from all over the ground, entangling Gyebaek and the apostle.
The stems of plants start absorbing the energy of Gyebaek and Apostle as quickly as sucking up water with their roots.
At the same time, the 6 apostles of a huge goat and Gyebaek made of human flesh spheres let out a desperate scream at the same time.
[Kikiiik!!!!]
“Kekekekeek…!!!”
Powerful sorcery ability that can inflict damage on apostles and ascendants.
This is clear evidence that the handbook has started remembering and using proper magic.
The longer the battle, the more pressure she has to keep her mission, and the memories of the handbook will quickly return, and she will awaken as a full-fledged Ascendant.
However, both the six apostles and Gyebaek were not blindly affected by the sorcery of the handbook.
The black monsters that became part of the human flesh sphere gnawed the plant stems, and Gyebaek, who escaped in an instant, bit off the tail and scales of the handbook.
Not missing the chance, the 6 apostles mounted on the body of the snake ran over the body of the handbook, and a brand like a burning hoof began to be engraved on the scales.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
In the middle of a plaza thousands of meters away, three monsters tangle and explode faster than sound.
The shockwaves that burst out each time they slammed and pushed each other and bit each other were immediately eaten up by the raging storm, and were stamped with even greater power and mass to annihilate them.
The clown climbed on top of Gyebaek’s head, constantly punching magic tricks and controlling the direction of his attacks.
The 6 apostles, unlike their completely insane appearance, were also tenacious enough to aim at one handbook and rushed at it.
In fact, the power of the handbook that overwhelms the battlefield with pure hand-to-hand combat while receiving and enduring all the attacks with a single body.
However, before the handbook could fully remember all of its magic, the situation of the war began to change rapidly.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!”
Along with the roar of the six apostles who burst into horn-like sounds, the hoof-shaped brand stamped on the scales of the handbook emits light all at once.
At the same time, the earth on the ground stood up all at once, centering on the six apostles who were restlessly pounding on the body of the handbook, and began to build a sphere with a radius of several hundred meters.
Koo Goo Goo Goo!!!
The ground and piles of earth around the plaza rise from the spot like living creatures and surround the handbook and the six apostles.
The supernatural ability of the six apostles that transforms the entire terrain and environment into a battleground for only the two of them.
It is a method of sadism that does not end with simply confining with geographical features, but separates and holds the space itself arbitrarily.
“Are you a monster who serves the underworld god? … !! I hate the madness of worshiping and honoring something that is not even life as a god!!!”
The whole body of the 6 apostles is crushed and broken by the resistance of the handbook that struggles and tries to escape from the apostolic ceremony.
An apostle who served the end of the open sea and was endowed with power as its incarnation.
However, a monster devoured by madness can never defeat the Ascendant.
The six apostles were literally grinding and throwing away their bodies, tying the handbook’s feet as collateral for death.
It is absurd that an apostle who should have been completely insane and difficult to distinguish between friends and family would show such sophisticated behavior.
Lennok had a hunch that the apostle’s movements were undoubtedly intervened by the religious leader’s will, but he had no time to worry about that right now.
This fleeting moment when the six apostles succeeded in capturing the handbook.
This moment of leisure, which would have been less than a minute in terms of time, was the very moment the clown had so longed for.
As if Gyebaek, who had lost his opponent with the well open to the open sea, waited for this moment when he was left alone in the middle of the collapsed plaza.
Something flew up quickly from the other side of the jungle.
Boaaaaang!!
An airship with a black fuselage. It was the item that the members of Lennok and the Pandemonium rode to the middle of the jungle.
With the warehouse that corresponds to the hangar wide open, it staggers as if it will fall at any moment, exhaling black smoke.
Even if it is a relic-class airship made with the technology of the old world, flying over this hell where all kinds of power and magic collide is practically an act of suicide.
Glenn, who was holding the airship’s controls, clenched his teeth and swerved, and Leya, clinging to the cargo hold, screamed in a hoarse voice.
“X-foot, I don’t know anymore. Bastards!!”
At the same time, countless cargoes piled up inside the wide open hangar began to fall all at once to the ground.
[Victor!!]
Lennok moved before he could hear the clown’s call.
After scattering hundreds of strands of magical power over the sky, catch all the falling cargo.
The thickly wrapped bag was cut off, and the contents were taken out and lined up neatly in the air.
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
According to Lennok’s manipulation of the magician, what appeared was dozens of gigantic black stakes as tall as humans.
On top of the black pillar, the magic technique densely carved with golden, unknown raw materials flashes ceaselessly and shines in all directions.
[Ohhh!!]
Unlike the clown’s admiration, Lennok shouted with his teeth clenched and his fingers moving gracefully.
“I can’t stand it for long…!!”
The weight itself is so great that it is difficult to hold on to it for a long time, and the magician continues to disappear, as if the stake itself is denying the approach of magic.
At this rate, the stakes would be smashed to the ground before they could balance properly and start working.
However, the clown showed signs of hesitation somewhere at the moment of desperation and gnashed his teeth.
[It’s still dangerous if that damn person doesn’t come… … !!!]
“What…?”
who that person is What is the last reinforcement the clown is waiting for.
Before Lennok could even ask, the clown’s body was pierced and impaled like a flashlight.
Kwajijik!!
“How foolish you are…!!”
One side of the giant earth sphere that rose up around the handbook and the apostle collapsed, and the tail of the snake protruding from the gap pierced the cheekbones.
“The challenge for the order and continuation of the world is a qualification granted only to ascended people!!”
The proclamation of the strict handbook resounding from inside the sphere. Unlike before, the old voice contained a clear will.
The 6 Apostles’ Spell Ceremony. The apocalyptic powers that used intellect to isolate space itself could not properly restrain the Great Ascendant for even a minute.
Awesome!!!
At the same time as he flicked his tail several times, the clown’s body bounced off.
The shape of a bizarre clown rolling on the dirt floor as rags with a hole in his chest.
However, the clown’s fingertips, which had fallen out like that, were constantly moving and drawing elaborate handprints.
Fully expanded magnetic realm The magnetic realm that the 8th level
illusionist of the 8th level of the phantasmagoric hierarchy
took out even ignoring the fatal injury.
High-level illusions can go beyond deceiving the senses or phenomena and reach the stage of partially reorganizing and manipulating reality.
It is because the phantom system belonging to the characteristic system is a very few system that can intervene in causality purely.
That’s why powerful illusionists often suffer from an endless madness.
Because you can never fake reality without fooling yourself.
Awesome… … !!
The physical space of reality is twisted endlessly, and an annoying noise resonates as if it is collapsing.
At the same time, the achromatic waves rising from the clown’s fingertips overturned the entire landscape in all directions and began to rewrite it.
The scenery of the altar, which has turned into a mess, is overlaid with the image of a clown on the spot.
The altar resembling a pyramid that had completely collapsed and lost its shape has been restored before I knew it.
Black stakes are piled up along the hole of the well made on the altar, drawing a huge single road as if drawing a runway.
And in the middle of the road was Aurel Silford, the white sage who had been struggling relentlessly from the handbook’s attack until just now.
A single road leading to a well that seemed to have been made just for Gyebaek.
The clown clutched at the pierced chest and murmured frantically out of breath.
[I made the green onion plate… … How to finish… … please… … . Ki hee hee… … .]
“Whoa….”
Lenok let out a light sigh, touched the mask, and immediately raised his mana to the fullest.
Thousands of magical threads burst from Lennok’s back and spun around the area the clown had created.
Chara la la la la rock!!
Gyebaek’s body wriggling between magicians pouring down like dripping rain.
Lennok didn’t miss the gap and wrapped the stake piled up on top of the altar with the magician without hesitation.
Kwajijik!!
Dozens of stakes were driven into Gyebaek’s body almost simultaneously.
[Haahiah !!]
The nurses who were sent in Gyebaek’s body and tried to block the stake, but the manipulation of the magic history of Lenox, which activated both the ma’an at the same time, had set the results in a completely different area.
Kwajik Kwajik Kwajik Kwajik!!
Each time the stake was driven in, the black ore that composes him disintegrated and the golden sorcerer’s training melted and flowed into Gyebaek’s body.
The transcendentally strong will contained within it changes into a part of Gyebaek riding on Geass.
The last Giath who completed the current Gyebaek as an ascendant.
As the essence of his existence is reversed, he now activates the gias, which is nestled in the deepest part of his inner world, at this moment.
[■■■■ ■■■ ■■■■.]
Gias, which contains instructions that cannot be explained in words, spreads through the entire body of the fallen ascendant without hesitation.
That was enough.
[Haah Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhel,
black blacks who started to run crazy and began to roll their body toward the altar. ”
Gyebaek’s huge body burrows into the ground and without hesitation climbs onto the altar made by the clown.
I ran desperately toward the open well above it, as if I had been waiting for this moment from the beginning.
The moment when a sphere made up of the human flesh of tens of thousands of people rushed out of the well without hesitation and tried to pass the boundary line connecting the world and the open sea.
The radius of the huge well floating in the sky narrowed in an instant, and Gyebaek’s body was grabbed and stood on the spot.
Kwaaaaaang!!!
“…!!!”
The huge earth sphere floating on top of the plaza collapsed.
At the same time, the handbook floated in the air while holding the six tattered bodies of the six apostles by its tail and looked down at Lennok.
A snake hundreds of meters long that floated in the air on its own will without using any force.
Its graceful figure floating in the air is like a dragon that has not yet ascended to heaven.
It was not simply by holding on to Gyebaek by force.
A crack in the world that is supposed to be fixed on the outer wall of the world and never change. By adjusting the size itself, Gyebaek was prevented from jumping out.
[Forbid an unqualified person from trespassing on the well.]
The handbook’s voice was no longer filled with anger.
He was just quietly staring at Lennok, with the eyes of a sharp snake with an inexplicable dizziness.
[I also loved the will of life that went toward the unanswered, but at the end it was filled with immeasurable failure and despair.]
“….”
[Promises and agreements for the continuation of the world. Crystal of survival instinct that excludes resistance. To live in this world… … It’s keeping its mission.]
The handbook’s attitude, as if trying to convince Lennok somewhere.
Perhaps this calm and quiet disposition is the essence of the handbook that was originally praised as an intact ascendant.
Did he regain his memory enough to overcome the body of a snake and the instinct of a predator to regain his spirit as an ascendant?
If the handbook had already regained its shamanistic ability as an ascendant, the success or failure of this case and Lennok’s fate would have been decided.
“….”
Maybe it was wrong to get involved in this from the beginning.
However, Lennok gritted his teeth and began to increase his mana despite the negative thoughts that were swirling in his head.
“…I never thought it would go as planned.”
It’s not too late for anything yet.
Rather, if you think rationally, moving before the memory of the handbook returns even a little more increases your chances of survival.
From the moment I entered Pandaemonium, even before I arrived in this jungle after accepting Myeong’s offer.
Have you ever achieved something without taking a risk?
“Now that I am in charge of finishing it, I will have to see it with my own two eyes.”
Amidst the acrid stench that seemed to rot his lungs just by inhaling, Lennok did not waver and began to sign his hand.
“What awaits us outside the open sea.”
At the same time as the golden magic circle rotates, the magical energy flowing from Lennok’s body completely disappears.
Instead, a massive force of attraction burst out as if trying to absorb all the power around it.
Kiyiying!!!
[Activation of the magic system Ouroboros.]
[Calculation of the dismantling of 84341 types of gias possessed by the Ascendant Gyebaek.]
[Ready for incomplete magical power conversion power conversion.]
[Deployment of permanent machinery: connection of power flow connection.]
Bahhh!!!
Lenok looked up at the landscape of the well through the rushing golden magic light and slowly raised both hands.
At this moment when all plans were on the brink of failure. Lennok came up with the last solution.
“From now on, we will dismantle Geass of Gyebaek Aurel Silford.”
Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Chapter 459
