Where Promises Intersect (3)
Although I thought that unexpected variables would occur in this situation where I was working with Pandaemonium.
I didn’t know that a problem would arise and a variable would explode until the last moment.
If Lennok somehow took over the clown’s work and hadn’t thrown Gyebaek over the well, everyone would not have been safe from being swept away by the enraged snake’s sorcery.
No, even at this moment, Lennok was thinking about why he couldn’t feel the movement of the handbook.
‘The handbook that recovered my memory was more moderate than I thought. It’s like throwing a gamble at the point of confirming that, but… … Things worked out too well.’
Although he had just woken up and was swept away by an unknown rage, the handbook tried to convince Lennok at the point he was starting to regain his memories.
The fact that she was able to make such a choice in a situation where the well opened and Gyebaek invaded the jungle was evidence that she was not fundamentally outraged.
I had hoped for that fact from the time I pushed things forward, but I never thought that even the clown and Leya would survive.
No matter how rational the Ascendant is, it is difficult to understand with common sense.
It is only natural, then, that one’s thoughts turn to other external factors rather than to Lenoch or the Handbook.
The existence of an unknown helper who made the clown hesitate to carry out the plan until the end.
It was likely that the variable had something to do with the now strangely quiet jungle landscape.
The clown who had been listening to Lennok wriggling his limp cartilage grinned.
“…Hehehe Did you remember that? This is why I can’t say anything recklessly in front of smart friends.”
“….”
“It’s no big deal. When preparing for an operation of this scale, it is natural to be prepared for various variables. Considering uncertain variables in the personnel supply process before starting an operation… … .”
“Let’s talk nonsense in moderation.”
If you listen to the clown’s nonsense anymore, you can’t do anything except figure out the situation.
Lennok asked, feeling Darby startled and wrapping his nails in a small plastic bag he pulled out from inside his arms and putting them away on the other side of his robes.
“Where is the handbook? When Gyebaek ran out into the well, I thought it would be difficult to deal with the aftermath, but surprisingly nothing happened.”
At the point when he unreasonably took over the plan and lifted Gyebaek into the well, Lennok had no intention of recklessly giving up his life.
As soon as Gyebaek was thrown into the well, Enakpil’s five fingers evaded Pyeonram’s powerful fire, and
he grabbed one of the captured elephants and ran out of the city.
Once they get their distance from the well, Pyeonram won’t be able to pursue Lennok in an attempt to somehow sabotage Gyebaek.
Contrary to what seemed reckless at first glance, Lennok thought that the possibility of surviving in the jungle of the ascendant was high because of Gyebaek’s existence.
However, all those plans became useless as Lennok’s consciousness was simultaneously transferred outside the open sea.
Judging from the propensity of the handbook, he may not have died, but he was prepared for considerable injury or damage, but he woke up better than expected.
Reya glanced at the clown and laughed awkwardly at Lennok’s natural question.
“Hmm, that’s what you mean… … . No, you bastard, why am I explaining this?”
“…I don’t know. Yeah oh.”
“What do you not know…!!”
Leya ruthlessly trampled the clown’s broken thigh, avoiding his gaze with an unfamiliar onomatopoeia, with a high heel.
Knock!!
“Fuck you, you knew it all by yourself, but you didn’t say anything!!”
“Geek geg.”
“Unwillingly, this side risked their lives, but do you really want to die, you bastard!! Why did you start the operation so quickly when you knew that support would come in the first place!!”
“…Did you really say that support came?”
I was puzzled when I thought of the scenery of the jungle that had turned to silence, but it was not incomprehensible.
At the point when Gyebaek was launched out of the sea, no one could stop the handbook.
Lennok must have lost consciousness at the point of escaping using Enakfil’s five fingers, and the clown was already bruised. Raya has very little fighting ability.
The six apostles, who were engaged in hand-to-hand combat with Handbook, would have been reduced to ashes in front of the Ascendant who remembered the spell.
At this point, without the intervention of a third party, there could have been no way to calm down the angry handbook and send it back to the other side of the well.
However, who the hell came to support, calmed the ascendant and sent it back beautifully, so Leae and the clown reacted like this.
Before he could ask, the clown laughed sullenly.
“Uhhhh…Leya, then people like you wouldn’t do their best.”
But the words were subdued, completely different from the cheerfulness of earlier.
“The reason you and that friend were running around to death was because we thought we were the only ones assigned to the plan. Isn’t it?”
“…What did you say?”
The clown did not pay attention to Freyja’s chilly words.
Rather, his eyes were glinting between the messy face where his skeleton had collapsed and sat down.
“A donkey who only thinks about flirting without thinking about what to do needs a stick more than a carrot.”
“….”
“I was lucky in many ways. I heard the words, but I never dreamed that it would really come. Put your hand on your chest and think. Would you have believed me if I had told you honestly?”
The clown kept laughing at the silent Leya.
“Or what can I say about the subject of deceiving people with my phantasmagoria-”
Kuuuung!!
At that moment, a shock that shook the ground of the jungle where the three of them were scattered exploded.
The bodies of the clown and Leya rose slightly from their places and then fell.
“Kyaaak!!”
“Keep!!”
Leya touches her waist with tears in her eyes, and the clown’s body stretches out and becomes tired.
The appearance of a clown wriggling in a state where it would not be strange if he died right away. No, it’s rather surprising that he’s still alive and talking softly.
But Lennok was more focused on the colossal shock that had just shook the earth than the sight of the dying clown.
Echo contained a clear will in the aftermath of simple physical destruction. Because I understood the identity of this deja vu.
Why haven’t I noticed it yet?
The reason why I didn’t notice this existence until now even though I thought I’d never forgotten it.
It was because the monster, clearly engraved in Lennok’s memory, was spreading its presence all over the jungle.
In a way, it is natural that Lennok, who had come to his senses in the tree, could not see the forest for a moment.
But to realize it now was the biggest shock to Lennok, and at the same time the key to understanding the whole situation.
If it wasn’t for that kind of existence, if it wasn’t for that level of support, I wouldn’t have been able to believe that this matter was so quietly settled and organized.
thud!!
At that moment, the scenery of the jungle surrounding the three of them shook greatly.
The ground on all sides was completely submerged and began to tip over.
Gwagwagwagwagwa!!!
A shock that splits half of this gigantic jungle and turns the ground upside down. The scenery outside of Lennok’s mask was not too different from that.
Beyond the empty ruins, hundreds of trees and piles of bushes simultaneously move as if running across the ground to fill up the empty space, and the
broken soil roots and piles of stones ripple like waves in the huge shaking and disappear between the ground.
A deafening roar rang out without knowing the end, then cut off like a lie.
Duduk!!
With a terrifying sound like ligaments snapping, the tree the clown was leaning on broke like a can of millet.
Something slowly stepped out from beyond, as the air around it resounded with a heavy weight that seemed to press down on all sides.
Beyond the fog in the forest at dawn when the day is not yet bright.
However, the elongated snout and ink-colored scales are very clearly visible even through the fog.
At the same time as bright yellow eyes flashed, a massive figure appeared naturally through the fog.
A muscular figure that seems to have been created by gathering all the concepts of power that exist in human life.
Overwhelming physique and heavy feeling that you won’t get used to no matter how many times you see it. Lastly, a solid tail like a rebar that stirred the fog and escaped.
Lennok, who was looking up blankly at his profile, muttered, forgetting that he was wearing a mask.
“Croken Asylus….”
Lennok now understands why the clown and Leya acted the way they did when they mentioned support.
The last reinforcement of Pandaemonium and the one who nearly turned half of this jungle upside down by himself.
The final face-to-face encounter with the Ascendant’s Handbook and the finishing touches was a man Lennok knew who would never be a part of such a big deal.
coo!!
Croken didn’t even look back at Lennok’s muttering.
I casually walked past the clown and strode forward, at the same time grabbing the lumpy clown’s collar with my tail and swinging it as it is.
Wedge!!
The clown’s disfigured body, shot like an arrow, landed at the base of the tree opposite.
“Khehe… … !!”
Seeing the clown tremble faintly with a groan-like scream, Croken finally stopped walking and lowered his gaze.
The bright yellow pupils looking down at the clown’s muddy body shone coldly.
“I made a fool of myself.”
“Cheuk…ahaha… … !!”
The clown trembled as if he couldn’t hold on for long just being weighed down by the force flowing from his body.
Taking the momentum of Croken in a condition that was driven to the brink of death would not make sense in itself.
However, Croken seemed to have no interest in such matters.
“The snake has returned to its nest, so take care of the rest.”
“Haaaa…!! Oh okay, this… … !!”
“Tell the captain that it’s a failure.”
“You mean poetry failure…?”
Even as he was dying of suffocation, the clown raised his head abruptly, but Croken gave no further answer.
thud!!
I just turned around and walked out of the jungle without hesitation.
“There…!!”
Raya opened her mouth with a pale blue complexion, but no answer came back.
Instead, Croken stopped to walk past Lennok, who was limp on the outskirts of the clearing.
The clown and Leya held their breath at the same time at that unusual reaction.
“….”
Croken looked away for the first time and quietly looked down at the masked Lennok.
Lennok also looked at him quietly, not averting his gaze.
A moment later, the corners of Croken’s mouth rose slightly as he looked away from Lennok.
Contrary to that expression that seemed to be smiling, Croken muttered dryly as he passed Lennok.
“Seeing you crawl on all fours isn’t much fun.”
“….”
“See you next time.”
The moment I thought I had stepped over the fog, Croken’s huge body had disappeared without a trace.
It felt like a hallucination of the heavy momentum that had been weighing down the area just before.
“Gegeb.”
Only then did the clown let out a long breath with a strange moan.
“Whoa…. I really thought I was going to die. He won’t be very interested in how the plan goes.”
“Oh, that’s why you didn’t say anything until the end, right?”
Reya, who came to her senses belatedly, also raised her voice, perhaps intending to continue the quarrel she had been having earlier.
“No, there is no need to say that someone who may come or is on our side is support!! Do you really need to explain this to me?”
“Ohhh~ Maybe that’s why, for some reason, I seem to be able to control my anger well in front of that person. Huh? What, a madman suffering from illusion?”
A smirk appeared on Leya’s face.
“From my point of view, it’s not madness control disorder, but I heard you’re good at controlling it? uh? uh?”
“No, that….”
“If I can’t control it, I’ll have to keep calling Asilus~ Well, don’t make excuses like X. From now on, let’s go to the doctor in charge.
“Such a fucking…. It’s not… … The
clown also seemed to want to protest as if he was unfair, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t oppressed by the croken, so he didn’t seem to have anything to say.
The appearance of Leya, who is excited to see the clown shuddering with his tired body, which is rare to see, mocking him.
He laughs nonstop at the clown in a lively high voice, as if he had never been overpowered by a croken before.
Lennok lay limp in the distance, watching with wonder as she beat up the clown.
‘I’ve been thinking about it since the other day, but he has a peculiar personality.’
Clowns don’t pretend to be crazy, they’re just people who, by all accounts, have completely gone mad.
If you are not in your right mind, there is no way you will not use your ability and hierarchy by tying it to the luck of the dice.
Although he is controlling the madness that comes to the illusionist in his own way, that is just part of maintaining rational thinking.
Wouldn’t it be normal for a person to casually sacrifice a human heart and play with it like a toy?
Leya probably doesn’t know that either, but she doesn’t even think about the danger that she will die, and she stimulates him without hesitation.
Or maybe because Leya doesn’t find clowns difficult, she can get along just fine.
“You look good.”
“what?”
“Victor, that’s what I’d rather say.”
At Lennok’s murmur, Leya shot back with an annoyed expression, and the clown averted his gaze.
The clown’s giggling eyes suddenly turned sharp again.
“I’ve never seen a croken so interested in strangers. You really…You are a man of many secrets.”
