Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 537
The Giant of the Sun (4)
Two-In-One.
Lennok silently recalled the words that innocence had mentioned.
“It’s a way to move the body with the mind… … .”
“We call it fighting spirit because it is the power that leads warriors who have reached their limit to fight again.”
Innocent, who stood up from his seat, deliberately lowered his gaze and answered.
“How to deal with psychic powers that don’t exist in bonded form. It is an application of the imagery that has redefined miracles as a technique that allows warriors who have reached their limit to make another move at the moment of crisis.”
“….”
Lennok didn’t know what Claude Azlan was talking about.
Humans aren’t simply machines that can’t fight when their mana and stamina are exhausted.
The formidable enemies who risked their lives with Lennok also had their images extremely polished and polished to draw out more power than they possessed.
A miracle that allows you to take one more step with only the power of your heart at the end of everything.
Walking on the still remaining mind with a body scraped to the floor.
The battle rendition was saying that it was possible to establish and use such an expression of fighting spirit that was originally incomprehensible as a single skill.
“In that sense, it makes sense that your granddaughter just reacted that way.”
Lennok leaned back on the wooden floor and winked at Caria.
Caria averted her gaze with a slight surprise. The sparring just now was not a very good memory for her.
“It’s a way to draw out non-existent mental strength, so it wouldn’t be a power that can be judged with the concept of martial arts.”
“Mmm.”
“It looks like an extreme technique that could be thrown as a gambler. I don’t want to learn martial arts because I need that kind of strength.”
According to what I just heard, isn’t it more like a gamble that can be used to somehow continue the battle after exhausting both mind and body in battle?
There might be a way to use it somehow, but Lennok’s intention to learn martial arts from Gyeolbaek didn’t mean that in the first place.
In this way, even with Lennok’s power, he could create any number of gamblers that were close to ad hoc.
What Lennok wants is to use this poor physical condition to create possibilities in a different direction than now.
The image of a kaleidoscope is the power to realize such diverse experiences and possibilities more concretely and powerfully than anything else.
As such, he needed an opportunity to clearly establish a method of combat using the body rather than simply being a wizard.
At least the two-in-one technology he had heard so far was far from the concept or use Lennok hoped for.
“It is not wrong. Even in the main text, it is strictly forbidden to actually train two people.”
Innocence was meekly accepted.
“To move the body with the mind means, in other words, that the overflowing spirit transcends the vessel of the body. They are not the only ones who have gone mad from being immersed in the concept.”
Innocent smiled bitterly and shook his head.
“Can you guess what would happen to a human being if he were consumed by images that lead a warrior into battle and driven mad?”
“….”
“Even after the body and mind die, they become ghosts that move endlessly following the images they were devoured by.”
“You mean you offered me the two-in-one skill in exchange for knowing that?”
“Providing you teach two-in-one is by no means an attempt to jeopardize your spirit.”
Innocent opened his mouth with a thoughtful expression.
“Rather, it should be said that it is possible because it is a wizard of your level.”
“What do you mean?”
“As I watched your sparring with Caria, I watched how you went into battle. I was really impressed.”
“….”
“Little movement that reacts within the line allowed by athletic ability. It was an awkward motion that had no effect other than fighting by directly manipulating the body. Overwhelming cognitive ability and judgment that can overcome such shortcomings.”
Innocent said with a sharp gaze.
“That’s proof that even moving your body is discussed in the realm of calculation and judgment, but you haven’t learned any skills or martial arts. This is something that would never happen to a normal physical person.”
“that….”
“Moreover, the fact that you weren’t unilaterally overwhelmed in the sparring with Caria in that way is proof that the method you chose wasn’t completely wrong.”
Although Lennok possesses combat intelligence, judgment, and arithmetic skills comparable to those of high-level physical abilities, he has not learned any martial arts or skills.
His mind has reached a level that surpasses that of a high-level soldier, but his body is a blank paper that is no different from an ordinary person.
Since innocence is such a condition, Lennok was asserting that it was the most suitable condition for learning two-in-one.
But Lennok shook his head at such innocence.
“The reason I wasn’t pushed back in Dalian was because I lacked information about myself. If you get used to the fact that you are engaged in a hand-to-hand combat through magician manipulation, it will be easier to take advantage of gaps.”
“….”
“It is true that there are many loopholes and we are looking for ways to make up for them. Do you think that two-in-one technology can serve the purpose I want?”
His condition improved significantly after taking the Archangel’s Tears.
However, even with a body coated with painkillers and stimulants, Lennok thoroughly avoided overdoing it in the sparring with Caria.
He is in a position to immediately follow his innocence and participate in the operation to the closed area to investigate the secret of the black consumer project.
But if innocent now recommends taking the risk of learning two-in-one from Lennok, shouldn’t there be at least a price for it?
“Those who learn two-in-one learn to control and express their own images in other ways.”
Innocent answered.
“That image is an extension of the martial arts and techniques that I have learned before. It doesn’t mean much to the completer who has obtained the microcosm. But what if a trainee with a mind and heart strong enough to learn two-in-one didn’t master any martial arts or skills?”
“….”
“If no martial arts or skills are exuded, in the end what will be put on your fingertips will be your own image.”
Only then, realizing what innocence meant, Lenok slowly looked away.
“Maybe it is possible to bring out your inner image in the form of a microcosm rather than a magnetic realm.”
* * *
A gigantic gymnasium built behind the main building of Turyeonmun Gate.
Several warriors in uniform were fighting a fierce battle over one practitioner.
Doo doo doo!!!
Shockwaves full of magical energy burst out one after another and hit the stone wall, but the woman with an inorganic impression calmly received it.
“…!!”
One by one, without being shaken or in a hurry. Just as they are not shaken by a fierce offensive.
It stops the shaking by skillfully manipulating the five spears that circle around it.
The woman’s body rotated rapidly between the ribs, the pith, the respiratory tract, and the internal organs.
Kagagak!!
It escapes the encirclement as it is by pointing out the veins of joint work that is so complex and sophisticated that it is impossible to even recognize the proper order.
The complicatedly intertwined flow of anticipation and ripples is unraveled like a skein, and unraveled like a wave on the spot.
Right after that, the soldiers who had been pouring out bloody attacks took a step back and bowed their heads politely.
“Hey, it’s ball time. You have suffered a lot.”
“Thank you for your effort.”
Illya, struggling to stand upright while wiping the sweat from her eyes, nodded towards them.
said Lennok, who was looking at the woman with innocence outside the gymnasium.
“Androids sweat like that too.”
“hmm. Did you already notice?”
Lennok replied calmly.
“Because it wasn’t just me and Professor Richellen who entered Area 6.”
At that time, he entered the closed area together in the name of escorting Lennok and Aris, and even participated in the operation to shoot down the mobile fortress.
A member of the Cybrid Echo and a physical person who wielded five super-vibrating spears.
Ilya had already been invited by Turianmon and was here with her.
“However, I did not expect to receive reinforcements from Cybrid Echo. The scale of the operation is beyond my imagination.”
Most of the members are cyborgs or androids, and the Cybrid Echo is an organization with a unique position within the Balkans.
Even before the prohibition law was lifted, it was ambiguously straddling both the negative and the positive, and its technology and products also did not cover the market.
It was a loophole in the law that arose because the members of an organization called Cybrid Echo were not officially recognized as human.
Are cyborgs whose bodies have been transformed into machines human? Are androids infinitely close to humans just machines?
It is only natural that they are as free as they are not protected by the laws or regulations of the city government.
That’s why it’s an organization that maintains an ambiguous distance that is not hostile to other organizations.
As in the case of the National Guard at the time, it is surprising that the approval of the reinforcement was obtained even though it was not a direct request for cooperation from the city government.
In the meantime, Illya noticed this and immediately walked out of the gymnasium.
“Azlan-sama.”
“Is your training going well?”
Ilya quietly nodded at the words of innocence.
“Rather, it seems that I am being taken care of.”
Silence, who smiled while sweeping his gray hair, said.
“How was it to actually practice the main text together?”
“It’s amazingly organized and orderly.”
“Is that so?”
“There is no logic in the training method or process, but there are tips that have been cultivated through experience over a long period of time. That sounds like a lot to learn.”
“No logic….”
Illya looked around the gymnasium, disregarding her slightly shocked innocence, and murmured.
“If possible, I would like to stay here for a long time and fill up my lack of knowledge, but it will be time to leave as long as Mr. Ban has arrived.”
Lennok nodded quietly at her reaction as she looked back at Lennok naturally.
“Long time no see.”
“Is this the first time since the National Guard incident? Ironically, I did not expect to see them again because of the incident at the time.”
Ilya smiled lightly and shook hands, then wiped away sweat and said.
“I heard that the operation was for the safety of the city. Please leave the job of standing in the vanguard to me.”
8th level spearman and 7th level spear user.
Even considering the grand justification of entering the closed area, it is a team that has been leveled up to the point of being ridiculous.
As innocent and Ilya stand in the vanguard, it wouldn’t matter if Lennok worked hard in the rearguard role.
“For now, this means that the minimum conditions have been met.”
Innocent said that and left the two of them alone, turning their backs.
“Could you wait a minute? I’ll bring all the nominees summoned for this job.”
The look of innocence that disappeared without a chance to answer.
Illya, who had been slightly looking at Lennok, opened her mouth again with difficulty.
“To be honest, I was a bit surprised that I didn’t think that Mr. Ban would participate in this operation. You are seriously injured… … .”
“….”
“Of course, it would be a great help if you could participate, but wouldn’t it be better to think about your health first?”
“There was a deal.”
Gyeolbaek said that the possible outcome of fully mastering two-in-one was simply not letting his body rest freely.
Bringing out the images of the magnetic realm in the form of a microcosm.
It was a possibility close to optimism, but it was something I couldn’t help but try after hearing that.
If the imagery of the kaleidoscope could be drawn out in the form of a microcosm, it might be possible to solve Lennok’s current worries.
In the end, Lennok agreed to learn the two-in technique from Gyeolbaek in exchange for this job during the operation.
When I told Illya about his innocence and what had happened, she gave a slightly surprised expression.
“okay. I didn’t know that a wizard the size of a half-sama would pay attention to physical training.”
“While waiting, it seems like you are dealing with the warriors of Turyeonmun. How is it to actually experience Yangji’s armed organization?”
As much as you have decided to learn two-in-one, you need to investigate the techniques and martial arts used by the battle gate in more detail.
Fortunately, while Illya was waiting for the others, she should be able to give advice that wasn’t as bad as she was dealing with the warriors of Turyeonmun.
Illya put on a troubled expression at Lennok’s words.
“Um…I don’t know how to explain it. This is an area that is difficult for others to understand.”
Saying that, Illya, who was worried, shook her head and opened her mouth.
“Compared to organizations in the sun that professionally train superhumans, aren’t there fewer such cases in the dark?”
“It’s on the same level as there is no one.”
“Considering how important the presence or absence of specialized educational institutions is in other fields, it is normal that the power difference between positive and negative sides should be overwhelming.”
After exchanging greetings with the warriors who were engaged in sparring with her just before, Ilya stood in a corner of the empty lot and said.
“However, even though it has been a while since the law was lifted, the balance on one side has not collapsed. What do you think is the reason?”
Lennok immediately responded to Ilya’s words.
“Are you saying that the existence of educational institutions in the field of training superhumans is not very effective?”
“It means it has its own merits. Do not the superhumans of the shadows naturally find the best way to survive and become stronger in real battles?”
Lennok laughed involuntarily at that.
“It is also a skill to be able to express what is happening on the floor in such a beautified way.”
The words were plausible, but it was a bit far from all the ugliness that Lennok had seen in the outskirts.
Wouldn’t it be a waste of rhetoric to give it to criminals in the outlying district, where betrayal of fictitious days, beatings, theft, arson, murder, and abandonment frequently occur?
Ilya also cleared his throat a little to see if he hadn’t thought of that at all.
“…Hmmmm Anyway, it can’t be denied that in the process, you develop your aptitude more freely. However, the way the organizations in Yangji I have experienced fostering superhumans is completely different.”
“In what way?”
“Rather than imparting order, it tries to trap practitioners in it.”
It’s a pretty radical remark for praising Turyeonmun’s training method.
“It is to present a standard that has been established through a long time and history and push one person over and over again. If you meet the standards, you rise to the top, and if you don’t, you get eliminated.”
“That’s an interesting point of view….”
It was only then that Lennok understood what Illya meant when he said that each had their own way.
The advantage of being able to stably foster skilled superhumans, unlike in the shadows where people die like garbage.
However, in order to maintain the system, it is to thoroughly kill individuality and fit people into the logic of the system.
Can it be said that the logic of such a fight is somehow related to the background of the establishment of two-person technology?
“If the trainee himself does not fit the training course provided by the training gate, the time to find his aptitude will inevitably be slow.”
Illya said.
“If you’re a good practitioner, you might be able to quickly change direction by noticing why the practice isn’t right. But there will be only a few exceptions.”
“But it is also true that we cannot deny the fact that a training curriculum like Turyeonmun is effective.”
A thick voice came from behind such Lennok.
“In the end, it’s just a matter of direction. It is impossible to judge which one is right and which one is wrong.”
An overwhelming physique far exceeding Lennok’s and Innocent’s height.
The appearance of a dignified bird-headed giant resembling an eagle perched on a thick neck is impressive.
Lennok frowned slightly at the unexpected appearance of an acquaintance.
“…Felix?”
“You were talking about an interesting story, Van. Have you finally become interested in the system that runs the city?”
Felix’s wide eyes seemed to be looking down at Lennok as if he were admirable.
“For a mage like you, it’s not a bad thing to broaden your knowledge in this area. In the end, such talents may be gathered to help the city’s gradual development. Have you heard of the recently developed anti-gravity technology?”
“You are talking about irrelevant things right now. What happened?”
“What does it mean that I’m at the Turyeonmun?”
Felix snorted lightly through his beak and grinned.
“This operation to fix the twist inside the closed area. I also got to participate. Please take good care of me.”
“With this, it seems that all the minimum power has been gathered.”
Innocent walks into the gym one last time with a slightly tired expression.
The eyes that were clear when talking about martial arts with Lennok just now returned to a cloudy and hot gaze, like the first time.
He rubbed his temples as if he had a headache, then looked around and nodded slowly.
“I don’t know if there will be more members in the future, but if we are ready, we will start. Need more time?”
“Are you going to head straight to the lockdown area?”
“There is a place to go to get permission to enter. Those in power who established this operation and entrusted full power to us.”
If their innocence is enough to say that, they must be the most prominent nobility in the city government.
“I didn’t expect the Senate to be so active in increasing numbers. As disagreements were divided over the expo agenda, the uproar was not settled… … .”
“No. Not the Senate.”
As soon as he heard that, the innocence shook his head.
“Upper.”
