Interim settlement (1)
As the burst of light obscured his vision, Lennok realized that the sensation in his left arm was fading little by little.
At the same time as the bizarre sense of incongruity in which the five senses disappear, the sensitivity to perceive magical power twists and turns into something else.
Chi profit… … !!
Hundreds of incomprehensible characters began to be engraved on Lennok’s reddened skin from the elbow to the fingertips.
Other observers also watched Lennok’s arm change with dazed expressions.
“This…?”
“what’s this? What happened?”
“The shape has changed…? No, it’s not like my body shape or length has changed. then….”
“Is it the concept of a combination of properties? If you look at the blazing shape, it’s a reasonable outcome.”
“….”
Lennok ignored the words of the observers and quietly raised his other hand and touched his left arm.
The appearance of unknown characters engraved on the skin. From the outside, I don’t feel any special power or abnormality.
It was only a faint discomfort, as if a foreign object had been caught in the sensation on the upper arm.
Lennok looked down at his arm in silence for a long time before he noticed countless unknown scars carved into the skin.
The appearance of scars carved from an impossible battle that originally did not exist on Lennok’s body.
What does it mean that a disfigured arm with a scar has appeared, even though this arm must have belonged to Lennok himself?
position support position… … !!
At the same time, the shape of a faint noise that began to be caught between the arms.
More than this is dangerous. An intense sense of déjà vu, as if declaring that.
“…Right.”
Lennok realized what that fact meant and immediately released the spiritual body imitating the incarnation.
Whoa!!
At the same time as the strange spinning sound, the spell is released, and the spiritual body that has fallen from Lenok’s body turns into a handful of dust and disappears.
“It just…. Is it the new power obtained through the super-fusion ceremony?”
Geo asked.
His expression, which had been calm all along, was slightly open as if he was surprised by what had just happened.
“No, more than that, he heard only the principle and magical flow and succeeded in merging with the incarnation…?”
“Strictly speaking, it is not a success.”
said Lennok.
“Half the failure…. Maybe the next time you try the same thing, the result will be very different.”
“…What the hell does that mean?”
“….”
Lennok didn’t answer that question anymore.
In order to clearly explain that fact, we should start by talking about the meaning of his magnetic field.
Rather than that, we should focus on the fact that the idea that Lennok was attempting now has a bigger sense of incongruity than he thought.
Superimposition of existence through the principle of fusion. What fruits can Lennok get in the process?
Having confirmed the possibility, all that remains is to materialize the conditions.
Lennok looked up at the spirit body dissipating in midair and said.
“I guess I need to learn how to make an incarnation properly.”
* * *
Meh… … !!
“Vital signs lost. There is no magic response.”
“It is estimated that more than six hours have passed since rigor mortis ended. It is too late to wish you luck.”
“The composition of tissue cells itself is completely destroyed. It appears to have been exposed to firepower strong enough to break the bonds of the genetic unit.”
A cold hospital room illuminated by pale light.
The 2 apostles were listening to the stories the medical staff told one by one with their eyes closed.
A pure white cloth over the corpse of Amrita lying on the hospital bed.
In the meantime, a sample of the body that escaped is extracted and investigated.
After the opinion of the medical staff, it was the turn of the high-ranking priests inside the church.
“The magic circuit has exploded. It is a trace of being immersed in such an output that even the body of an apostle could not bear it.”
“Looking at the speed of cell regeneration in the body, it is certain that it was reconciled to its true body once and fully enjoyed its power.”
“They are rejecting and blocking the magic power itself that is being injected for investigation.”
“The opponent probably took a long time to follow up. It’s so sophisticated that it’s impossible to do anything other than that.”
“It’s been a long time….”
The two apostles muttered that and slowly opened their eyes.
I thought I had arrived ‘just in time’ right after the battle ended when Izel and Amrita had just died.
Actually, it was already a long time ago.
“…No it can’t be.”
The two apostles, who looked back on their inner sense of time, shook their heads slowly.
“You’d be right to think that your sorcerer was that good.”
“In that case, there is no other way for us….”
“Go ahead. I would love to hear more.”
The priests, who had noticed the two apostles, began to express their opinions one by one as they closely examined Amrita’s corpse.
“…That’s amazing. Even though time has passed since the breath has already stopped, tissue cells in the body are regenerating little by little.”
“It must be the result of a miracle caused by the will of a great god. However, the playback speed itself… … .”
“Yes, it seems to be disintegrating with a chain of incineration and destruction for each regenerated part.”
“It is a very powerful and vicious spell. Even inside the church, this is enough, unless it’s the aftermath of the taboo weapon… … .”
The two apostles, who had been quietly listening to the words, smiled faintly.
“It’s magic equivalent to a taboo weapon…. I mean, that was it.”
“…Are you an apostle?”
The apostle, naturally ignoring the other priests, asked.
“No, nothing. How is the status of the Apostolic Spell?”
“Um….”
“That is….”
Priests who suddenly shut their mouths and start to notice men.
“I tried to check it first, but even access is not easy.”
“I’m constantly trying, but I can’t pinpoint the spirit pulse….”
Understanding the meaning, the two apostles stood in front of Amrita’s corpse.
The moment he infused his will while holding Amrita’s burned wrist,
Kiriririk!!!
A veil that denies one’s will that explodes with an unknown and heterogeneous spark.
Fragments of the veil began to entwine ceaselessly, forming countless circular arrays in the air.
Even at a glance, the complex shape of a firewall changed, and the brilliance permeated through Amrita’s corpse.
The priests who confirmed the existence of that array shrank with dazed expressions, and the two apostles shone sharply.
“What the hell is this….”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen this in my life. How could this kind of security magic exist… … .”
However, the two apostles stared intently at the disappearing array until the end, and then spat out a word.
“It’s Jindun’s barrier technique.”
“yes?”
“Even though the individual components of the barrier itself are completely different, the overall pattern of magic power arrangement and rotational speed is similar to that of the Gangesian Labyrinth.”
“…Did you see it with your own eyes and figure it out?”
Ignoring the reaction of the frightened priests, the apostle touched his chin.
“It’s an encryption barrier made by borrowing only the structure of barrier art and replacing the contents with a completely different feeling… … .”
From the apostle’s transcendent memory, only close information and patterns are extracted and quickly compared to calculate how to solve them.
“It’s like putting an encryption array in the formula itself and forbidding its output. It’s similar to the way information is handled in the brain space on the Machine City side, but the pattern is very different.”
The apostle, who muttered for a while, shook his head as if he couldn’t help it.
“Unless a comparison group is created through a new apostle, it will be difficult to find the decoding code.”
“That….”
“Are you saying that Amrita’s scale technique will be sealed… … !!”
Among the high priests gathered here, there is not a single person who does not fully understand its meaning.
Even within the church, one of the strategically important apostolic ceremonies will be blocked.
What a serious problem it is to tie together the weapons of the church, which boasted overwhelming versatility among the apostolic ceremonies along with the [Kamrodal Doll].
However, the 2 apostles clearly understood that, but just smiled while stroking their chin.
“Well, it won’t matter anyway for the time being, will it? Think of it as a relief that we just signed a truce with the Order Federation.”
“There will be great losses in the process of transporting power tied to wires…!”
“Missionaries across the continent are calling for a quick solution to nature. If we don’t solve this part… … !!”
Despite the desperate words of the priests, the two apostles quietly turned their backs.
“You guys will do well on that part.”
“Apostle city…!!”
Leaving the voice calling him anxiously, the man strolled among the grand sanctuaries of the pantheon.
[Daeseong Junjeo (大聖竣貯)], which is surrounded by thousands and tens of thousands of layers, passes by like water flowing through the barrier law, and heads to the deepest part of the pantheon.
Even in the splendid and majestic huge nature, only five people can enter and exit.
The sanctuary created by pouring all the power and capital of the church was not splendid or solemn.
On a small meadow where time seems to have stopped.
A wide, thin veil swaying through the grass quietly flutters as if hiding something.
A white-haired woman kneeling in front of a veil engraved with the church’s pattern shining in golden light, clasping her hands together as if in prayer.
Sado stopped behind the woman and spoke quietly.
“Izel has left, Seina. The Apostolic Spell has been sealed.”
“…is that so?”
“In the end, everything went as you said. Are you satisfied now?”
The apostle, unable to withstand the distance between the body and spirit, soon goes mad, but the priestess cannot endure even that for long.
From generation to generation, most of the priestesses were short-lived, and there were only two priestesses who stayed by the religious leader until the end.
And one of them just left them.
The apostle, who had been staring quietly through the veil, slowly knelt down like her and lowered his head.
“I will make a place for the 3 apostles sooner or later. They wanted the last thing they could understand.”
“…Hughes is that kid?”
“Please don’t make the same choices as Izel. Do you know?”
“….”
Seina didn’t answer. He just raised his head slightly and looked through the veil.
The end of the veil sways as if swayed by a still wind, revealing a glimpse of the landscape beyond the covered grass.
The appearance of something that can be seen as a small chair or a shabby coffin.
The two of them just stared at each other without saying a word.
Their god who left without even making an unpredictable promise of when he would return.
* * *
The Far East Chapter of the Order. land that runs through the sea.
Twilight with the setting sun setting below the sea.
Lennok sat atop the spire at the top of the great Crystal Palace, silently with his back to the sunset.
His sunken gaze was only looking at something placed in the corner of the spire as if he was thinking hard about something.
“Here you are.”
A bronze-skinned sorceress with a long pole in her mouth walks up the stairs.
“Why are you trembling in a place like this?”
Grisha laughed and leaned against the pillar of the spire a little away from Lennok.
“I have something to think about.”
“Did you see that?”
Grisha pointed to the object Lennok had been looking at just before.
A mirror placed in the secret room where Amrita was hiding. Did you say that it is an object that reflects the same existence as itself through the presence projection rate?
Grisha looked in the mirror curiously and asked Lennok.
“What do you see?”
“nothing.”
Lennok replied with an expressionless face.
“I can’t see anything anymore.”
“….”
After everything was over, Lennok found the mirror in the basement again. Beyond the mirror nothing was reflected anymore except Lennok.
Through a single coincidence, a fragment of the landscape that Lennok hoped for was only reflected. Does that mean you won’t allow more?
“What do you see over there?”
“princess.”
Grisha laughed.
“I see a princess who reigned like a god in the backcountry of the jungle.”
“….”
“I’ve never forgotten it, but looking at it again, it’s really pitiful.”
She muttered as she blankly gazed at the scenery beyond the mirror.
“If I had realized earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted so much time….”
A mirror that reflects a person with the same projection rate.
Unlike Lennok, do other people see themselves in other times?
Grisha didn’t know what period of her past she was facing, but she could guess that the memory wasn’t very pleasant to her.
“What about Lapis?”
“You must have passed out by now.”
Grisha said calmly.
“I put a lot of effort into using the supernormal abilities of the lighthouse keeper. For the time being, it will be difficult to appear in public.”
Lappard and Pio opened a showdown on the island through the control code Lennok gave them and contacted Lapis to request support.
As soon as Lapis heard the request, he sent Grisha and Geo Ryza away.
What made this possible was the large-scale spatial transformation that utilized the supernormal abilities of the lighthouse keeper and the talisman of Gapsun to the limit, which were expanded while building the second lighthouse.
The lighthouse keeper’s ability to jump in space by switching the phases of what is seen and what exists, and an 8-level talisman that intervenes in time and space.
In such an urgent moment, Lapis could only use the space transfer that could only be used in the area he remembered.
The fact that he succeeded in space transfer by pinpointing the sky over the island of the Far East Branch itself proves how clever Lapis was and how he overreacted.
“I’m thinking of making this the third lighthouse location once I’ve dealt with the captured church members.”
“Is that so?”
In the first place, the fact that Liza and other observers of the western continent discovered this island was because the moving island of the Far East was a very powerful unexplored land itself.
As long as the condition of unexplored land is satisfied, it is also possible to transform this place from a church temple into a lighthouse.
“Being able to move in all directions of the sea area beyond the land where the coordinates are fixed is itself a great geographical advantage. Not only from the point of view of constructing the astronomical formula of the lighthouse.”
Grisha said, pointing his finger.
“After setting up the 1st lighthouse in the Dominion, the 2nd lighthouse in the valley, and the 3rd lighthouse on this island, and adjusting the positions of each lighthouse, the power of Lapis will be much stronger.”
“Right….”
“You’ve come a long way. is not it?”
She turned to Lennok and laughed.
“It seems like yesterday when we first met in the Dominion and hit and run.”
“Does a long-lived shaman like you feel that way?”
“All longevity species are like that. I remember all the meetings and partings that I have accumulated throughout my life.”
The smoke on her face turned bitter.
“It’s because we rarely forget it that we can live a long time. In a way, this is like a curse placed on a tribe like us.”
“….”
That’s an interesting point of view.
Since oblivion itself is a blessing bestowed upon life, does that mean that Grisha’s tribe, which was rare, had lived for a long time?
In a way, the words that he gained the strength to live a long time because he was not blessed with being forgotten had aspects that were in line with the law of Gias.
Grisha, who briefly turned into a melancholy expression, took a deep sip of long grass and smiled faintly.
“What do you mean, I don’t remember everything, but.”
I wonder if I’m already accustomed to brushing it off as quickly as I’ve lived for a long time.
Thinking so, Lennok gazed silently at the darkening sea.
I still remember the image I saw myself in the mirror at that time.
What the meaning of old guns and meaningless phrases scattered around his feet.
Without confirming it, it would be difficult to uncover any more secrets about Lennok himself.
In order not to be shaken even in the face of any truth, Lennok had to prepare in advance from now on.
“We’re going to start working on building the third lighthouse in earnest from now on.”
Grisha averted his gaze with his long candle in his mouth.
“Evan, what are you going to do?”
“…I intend to help, but I cannot stay long.”
Saying so, Lennok quietly touched the inside of his coat.
Lennok lowered his gaze quietly, feeling the hard obsidian mask on his fingertips.
“There is still work to be done.”
The midterm settlement of Pandaemonium that the clown mentioned.
I heard that there is a place where the members who have collected the relics of the old world gather together to settle the results of the operation.
Less than three days left for the time he had heard from Hairea and Freya.
It was time to step into the pandemonium once again.
