Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 636
How to Kill God (2)
At those words, the lake fell into a dead silence.
It was because everyone realized what Hermes wanted and how dangerous the idea was.
“Crazy….”
Even as my mind faded from the overwhelming amount of information that was constantly digging into my head, someone shouted desperately.
“Do you believe that a normal soul will remain at the end of the world that has disappeared, Hermes…!! What are you going to do by summoning those who saw the ending again!!”
“That is a silly word. Didn’t you also pay ordinary humans for the knowledge of the old world?”
Hermes shook his head in front of the huge door of light that was wide open.
“I masturbated that I took only the memories, not the lives of the test subjects, but did the memory-deprived people live a normal life?”
“….”
“I would never have even paid attention to it. I understand.”
Hermes laughed at the silent Meisters and pushed Harvest’s neck through the door.
“Ahhh!!!”
Harvest shook his head desperately and howled as if he had intuited something.
Hermes gently stroked Harvest’s cheek as if to comfort him.
“We are used to sacrificing something to get an advantage beyond the door. I was convinced of the unreasonable exchange cost and I was also convinced of paying more.”
“No no….”
The sight of a bloody, silver-haired young man stroking a mature man looked bizarre and holy at first glance.
“Now, Machine City cannot move forward unless it pays a much higher price. Do you understand?”
“How devoted I was to this city!! It’s still a while… … !!!”
Hermes did not watch Harvest for a long time.
Instead, he grabbed the handle of the retractable blade stuck in his neck with his other hand and slowly pulled it out.
Push-Shoo-Shoot!!
As the wound opens and blood splatters, the fresh blood splatters all over Harvest’s face.
The moment when Harvest opened his mouth in a daze at Hermes’ behavior, which had reached the realm of incomprehensibility because it was so bizarre.
The folding blade that fell vertically landed on the crown of Harvest precisely.
Pooh!!
“Knock… … !!”
At the same time as a single scream, Harvest’s eyes turned upside down and thick saliva leaked out of his mouth.
Harvest’s corpse died in an instant, and Hermes threw it into the door without hesitation.
with a splash!!
As soon as it passed through the gate, the light that had been bursting out ceaselessly faded little by little, and there was a strange sound like splashing water.
While everyone couldn’t breathe properly and looked at it, Harvest’s corpse disappeared as if it were being ground through a crack in space.
“…What are you going to do now?”
As the brilliance faded and the unknown information that had been digging into their heads disappeared, the Meisters regained their breath one by one.
Meister Oason, who glared at Hermes without hiding his hostility, asked.
“Are you going to kill us all and throw us in that door and see what happens?”
“….”
However, Hermes did not respond to Oason’s words with an expressionless face.
Instead, he just looked over the door as if his time was running out.
“It’s coming up.”
“What the hell is coming up… … omg!!”
The other artisans who followed Hermes and turned their eyes wide open their flagships.
keying… … !!
This is because the shape of the giant door, which had been shining in pure white, began to be drenched in a bright red glow in an instant.
The ring of light that emitted clean and noble light is covered with a sticky, dark red glow and shines brilliantly.
Gul-Luk Gul-Luck… … !!
As if spitting up sticky blood, he was constantly spitting out an unknown liquid from beyond the door.
Chow!!
The corpse of Harvest, which appeared from the other side of the dark red ooze, bounced up on the surface of the lake and was scattered all over.
At the same time, the juice that burst out on the lake disappears as if being sucked into all the holes in Harvest’s body.
rumble…!!!
The corpse of Harvest, whose limbs were broken, twitched and twitched like a bug as it inhaled the juice.
“Hee hee… … !!”
The moment the other Meisters stepped back in fright, Hermes, on the contrary, smiled brightly and spread his arms.
“Look. Even though only the memory of the soul was brought up, this overwhelming figure… … If a way to kill a god existed in the old world, we must!!!”
That moment. Harvest’s back bent sharply, and he stood up slowly, supporting himself with both feet.
“Uh ah…evil.”
As he drank a lot of dark red juice, his entire body was dyed dark red and his hair spread out in all directions, looking like a ghost.
The sight of him tearing his red bloodshot eyes open and shedding black bloody tears was enough to make him look like a demon possessed by a ghost rather than a human being.
At the same time, an overwhelming storm of magical power emanating from his body.
oh oh oh… … !!!!
Everyone distanced themselves from him, but they couldn’t take their eyes off his miserable figure.
According to Hermes, the appearance of Harvest right now was the result of trial and error he had hoped for.
The souls and memories of the old world, which had already reached an end and disappeared.
Bringing it out of the door by trading it with a human life in exchange for something that is not even sure it exists beyond the door right now.
It was proof that Hermes had actually tried and achieved fruition, which was difficult even to think of, let alone try.
“ah….”
The moans that had been leaking from Harvest’s throat suddenly stopped.
Hermes looked at him with his hands behind his back and asked.
“Great Transcendental One. Can you hear me?”
“….”
“I’ve already communicated a few times over the door, but I want to make a deal. If you can hear me, please respond.”
Instead of answering those words, Harvest raised one hand and pulled out the blade embedded in his crown.
Push!!
Blood and other bodily fluids flowed out stickyly, but Harvest stared at the blade, ignoring the wound that split his head in half.
Hermes, whose head was cut in half, was also watching.
“As soon as it comes out, it’s the knife that shows interest…According to my recollection, you wouldn’t have relied on equipment… … .”
hook!!
Hermes, who was touching his chin, stopped talking.
It was because Harvest, who grabbed the folding blade, stabbed the blade into Hermes’ chest on the spot.
There was no time to react or evade.
The moment I grabbed the sword, I had the illusion that the blade leaped and pierced my stomach as if time were moving.
Faaaaang!!!
Right after that, a dark red wave arose behind Hermes’ back and reverberated throughout the lake.
“…Cool!!”
The moment Hermes, unable to speak, coughed weakly, a mixture of dark red blood spurted out.
Before everyone’s eyes could see the drooping figure of Hermes, who couldn’t even resist the blade that stabbed his heart.
Awesome!!
Harvest, who twisted the blade stabbed into the pit of the stomach, broke Hermes’ collarbone and neatly cut off his head.
A god that slashes the head with a sword stabbed in the heart.
However, the meisters’ gaze was directed to a different place than that clever swordsmanship.
The head of Hermes, which was easily severed to the point of futility, and fell with its severed neck and tumbled across the floor.
Everyone couldn’t come to their senses easily at the terrible sense of difference in which even the dazzling silver hair was cut off.
“The Lord is dead…!!”
“What should I do? how to do this… … !!”
Even meisters who have lived for a long time lose their reason and are confused by what happened in front of their eyes.
But an even more surprising thing happened next.
“It’s a little different from what I expected. Hmm, I didn’t expect such an uncooperative attitude… … .”
The decapitated head of Hermes turned upside down and began to lick his lips.
“Either the price was insufficient or the output was insufficient. Either way, I can’t help but think there was a mistake.”
“Ughhhh!!”
A scream erupted from somewhere at the sight of Hermes continuing to speak even with his head and torso separated.
The Meisters, who couldn’t stand the fact that Hermes was not an ordinary human, started running away from the opposite sex on the spot.
Hermes, whose head has been cut off, cannot stop them from escaping.
The other Meisters, who realized it belatedly, also quickly showed their backs and ran, noticing Hermes and Harvest.
“Are you going like this?”
Hermes looked at the Meisters as if they didn’t care, then smiled.
“But this person doesn’t seem to have any intention of letting you go.”
“….”
Harvest’s corpse, which stood still as if dead right after Hermes’ head was cut off.
An unknown being newly nestled within it slowly turned its gaze toward the fleeing meisters.
Lennok, too, was lost in thought as he looked at him, hiding his presence.
‘Now is the only time to intervene. but….’
Harvest, who was staring blankly at the backs of the Meisters with cloudy eyes, put down the folding blade he was holding.
Right after that, the blood that burst from his wrist swallowed the whole body and covered the body with dark red bloody armor.
Clap!!
The form of a blood knight wearing a sticky armor of blood up to his head.
The moment I lifted my hand, which was hardened like a sharp demon’s claw, the blood flowing around me rose up like a wave, covered the whole area around the lake, and started spinning.
Aaaaaaa… … !!
“Ahhh…!!!”
With feet of transcendent magical power that is unbelievable even after seeing it. The will of a monster that suppresses the entire space itself.
The faces of the Meisters showed despair when they realized that their will was filled only with waves of murderous intent to tear apart living things.
The moment the blood knight clenched his fists and was about to tear apart human flesh.
The water of the lake beneath my feet rose up and froze, turning into a pure white mirror of cold air.
Faaaaang!!
A blood-colored wave full of mana directly hit the icy mirror surface.
It twisted its trajectory and hit the ceiling above the lake, releasing an intense roar.
Clink!!
The impact completely shattered the ice mirror and scattered hundreds of ice shards like snow on the lake.
The moment when the blood knight reacted to the sight and belatedly turned his gaze toward the origin of magic.
A huge shockwave crushed the blood knight’s face and pushed it back.
Kwaaaang!!
The manifestation of repulsive force as if a truck weighing dozens of tons appeared out of nowhere and pushed it away.
The blood knight reacted immediately, but couldn’t overcome the force and fell backwards.
with a plop!!
Harvest’s corpse sinks to the surface of the lake unable to overcome the impact.
Originally, in this space, even though some measures were taken to allow him to walk on the lake, the pressure so strong that he could not defeat him threw the blood knight into the lake as it was.
The head of Hermes, who had been looking up at him blankly upside down, turned his gaze.
Ice sculptures reflect the water of the lake, and in the midst of the piercing wind that flashes dazzling brilliance in all directions.
Lennok stood in the middle of the rain of flying ice.
Wearing an iron mask made to completely cover his face, he looked down at Hermes.
Hermes, who confirmed the appearance, smiled as if he was relieved only then.
“That is a wonderful response. It was the best thing I could do right now.”
“….”
“However, it will be difficult to completely subdue spirituality. A spark that has maintained its power even beyond the door will not fade with one or two frictions.”
Hermes was not at all surprised by his sudden appearance, even though he had not guessed Lenok’s existence until just now.
Rather, he just started giving advice to Lennok, who stopped the runaway blood knight on his behalf.
“I’m sorry to the person I’m meeting for the first time, but would you mind helping me until I can talk to him?”
Hermes’ eyes shone transparently.
Even though they were facing each other so closely, their decapitated gaze shone pure white so that their thoughts could not be read.
“Is he really the transcendent who killed God in the old world? I want to make sure you’re a madman with the feat to challenge the ascension.”
“okay?”
Lennok neatly ignored Hermes’ words and approached the lofty figure of the gateway.
A large amount of information mixed with light leaked through the crack in the door that was still open, but Lennok didn’t care.
We are quite familiar with this phenomenon of being pressed by the overwhelming amount of information itself.
Don’t try to accept information that you can’t understand anyway, just let it flow unfiltered in your head.
However, Hermes seemed to be more interested in Lennok’s appearance.
“It doesn’t seem like they’re using any particular method of memory incineration or oblivion, but to be able to face the door’s light head-on…That’s a lot of mental strength.”
“….”
“I know who you are. Thick iron mask and bizarre and unique skills. I’ve heard of it before.”
Lennok’s hand, which carefully touched the gate’s doorknob, stopped.
Hermes spoke slowly, as if not wanting to miss any of Lennok’s reactions.
“At the time of the attempted assassination of Narcissa Solmer, the person who first dealt with the Side Squad assassin and fled from the enforcement agency. You are still in this city.”
It seemed that he wanted to divert Lennok’s interest to himself through the fact that he had recognized Lennok’s identity.
However, rather than being surprised to hear that, Lennok focused on silently observing the gate.
Judging from the circumstances we have observed so far, Hermes is a member of the Ex Machina. Even within the Ex Machina, he is a powerful person with a fairly high rank.
He probably heard about what Lennok was doing at the time through the agency’s internal intelligence network.
Hermes spoke again as if giving advice to Lennok, who showed no interest in him.
“There will be no income to be gained by observing the door for a long time. It will be closed again after a while and only I have the authority to open it.”
“The corpse holding the soul of the old world beyond the door didn’t die even after being wounded.”
“…yes?”
At those words, Lenok slowly turned his gaze from observing the door to Hermes’s head.
“You, too, are alive and babbling after your throat is cut off.”
“….”
“Hermes. Isn’t it because you’re like him that you’ve been looking for the souls of the old world so much?”
Hermes was speechless at the words of Lennok, who saw right through to the core.
The corpse that obtained the soul of the old world from beyond the door moved intact despite being wounded.
Lennok’s words were, then, a question of whether Hermes, who had not yet lost his life after being decapitated, was also a similar being.
Seeing Hermes not answering, Lennok lightly nodded.
“If you don’t want to talk, that’s fine. I didn’t mean to ask you about that.”
It was no other reason that Lennok chose this crucial moment to intervene just before everything was headed for catastrophe.
Although he had no interest in the deaths of the Meisters, he knew that keeping them alive served Lennok’s purpose the most.
Lennok nodded lightly at the huge ring of light that floated above his head.
“I will take that.”
