Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 654

Qualification for Ascension (4)

Whoa Oh Oh!!!

“Stand back everyone!! Never touch the door!!”

“Even the slightest mistake is sucked in. Do not approach the door!!”

Sai Squad’s agents back down in a cold sweat.

“Contact Ex Machina. Request a reconsideration of this operation immediately!!”

“I can’t reach you. The communication network is completely cut off… … !!” At that moment

,

a dull roar resounded as if the sky was breaking.

Immediately after, the members of the Shadow Unit were trampled on the spot, crushed into a handful of flesh, and exploded.

“Quaaaaagh!!”

The desperate screamers disappear as if they are being sucked into a huge ring of light.

At that moment, the focus seemed to return to the eyes of Hermes, who was blank somewhere.

Every time Hermes absentmindedly gestures, all substances that exist with mass are crushed and sucked into the door.

The shape of a huge gate that shatters and devours all human and natural objects except for Hwadeokjingun’s workshop, which stands firmly on the foundation of the gate.

Sitting on the pure white throne, Hermes stared at Lennok’s face and smiled.

“Even while I was sleeping, I was very curious about that face. It’s been a long time since I’ve wanted to see someone’s face.”

“….”

“How do you like this door?”

Hermes asked without waiting for Lennok’s answer.

With a somewhat languid attitude, as if he were about to fall asleep at any moment, he struggled to sit on the throne.

As if it was difficult to continue talking, he asked Lennok while holding his breath.

“Machine City’s greatest failure. A more devastating and perfect fall would not be common in the entire East Continent.”

“….”

“But the people of this city casually threw their fates beyond the gates to preserve this failure.”

Hermes laughed.

“The people I responded to between those lingering and obsessive obsession and delusion-”

“People who gave their own destiny beyond the door.”

Lenok interrupted Hermes and asked.

“Was Jin-gun Hwadeok one of them?”

“….”

The beautiful workshop tower looks like several palaces stacked on top of each other.

The remains of the Gate of Ascension revealed only after the entire studio facility was overturned, and the white throne in the center.

It would be rather strange if someone’s arrangements did not exist in this space prepared to open the door right away.

And the fact that the person who designed this plate was Jingun Hwadeok, who was the maker and owner of the workshop, seemed unmistakable.

Hwadeokjin’s death was not caused by someone’s assassination or accident.

From the beginning, he intended to use his workshop as a basis for reopening the Ascension Gate.

For the failure of Ascension Gate, Hwadeok Jin-gun devoted himself beyond the gate to leave the failure as meaning.

Lennok murmured as he pushed the revolver hard between Hermes’ forehead.

“Three answers to one failure…It’s ironic, but that’s why I can understand it.”

Ascension Gate reached the destroyed second world without being able to find an answer to the next one, and the answers left after that were different.

Atermeyer, who did not put any meaning to failure, Maiya who tries to accept and fix it. Hwadeok Jin-gun, who could not admit it and devoted himself to finding meaning.

Even after not finding an answer, someone’s lingering feelings stretch in different directions.

Even the ego that echoes without finding meaning eventually becomes another answer.

“I thought you would understand, Lyman.”

Hermes nodded.

“Because if you saw that memory through the door and kept your sanity, it must be because you came to the same conclusion as me.”

“….”

I remember what the leader said at the end of the labyrinth.

The question and answer that he will find a new answer before it is too late, even if it is in a direction he never wants.

I didn’t understand what that meant then, but now… … .

“If someone has to accept a wish that cannot come true, I will be someone’s inevitability.”

Hermes opened his arms slowly, his transparent eyes flashing.

“If that is the only answer beyond salvation, come with me…!!”

Taang!!

At that moment, the revolver in Lennok’s hand fired and the bullet lodged in Hermes’ heart.

The bullet fired like an arrow pulsates slowly like a heart and accurately penetrates the pit of the stomach.

Immediately after, it penetrated Hermes’ heart and disappeared as if being sucked through the door behind the throne.

“…ah?”

“No, that’s it.”

Lennok said to Hermes, who blankly looked down at his chest.

“The doctor is right. The idea of bringing meaning out of the door was wrong from the start. Even if there is something great left in it… … .”

Memories of legacy information from the old world are only one means after all.

Values and answers that have not succeeded in ascending cannot become new answers in this world.

Hermes’ summoning of the ascendant’s spirit is just an obsession to repeat the failed answer once again in this world.

“….”

Patter!!

Blood pours from the hole through Hermes’ chest.

The shape of the door, recognizing the will of Heaven, was greatly distorted like a crack in the window at that moment.

Quick!!

An illusion arose as if a huge ring of light floating on the wall of the workshop was breaking at once.

It seemed that the seat was out of balance, shaking, and debris falling little by little.

The ripples that gently rippled behind Hermes vibrated irregularly and convulsed.

blink blink

Even the shape of the light fades, and even the brilliance that dazzled the entire workshop fades.

The remains of the Ascension Gate that existed in the workshop of Hwadeokjingun.

The door of Hermes, which was forcibly completed using the mechanical city division, is crumbling and collapsing at the same time as it is completed.

“Cool… … ! okay….”

Blood leaking from the punctured chest.

The fresh blood dripping down his lips was sticky and wet his collar.

However, Hermes was more interested in the identity of the bullet Lennok had just fired than his own dying body.

“Thousands of thoughts…I thought it was all consumed by the milestones, but I never thought that such a treasure would still remain… … .”

What Lennok fired as a bullet from his revolver was a catalyst made by directly materializing the will left by Cheon-Gyeon.

It is one of the only solutions that the two of them shared after Maiya learned from the statue.

The strong will of the ascendant fills the void of the old world connected beyond the door and destroys the entire system.

The rule of steel that you always get back more than you gave.

The moment the Ascendant’s will, which cannot be established within the law, is offered as a price, the exchange fee is destroyed and the door’s function collapses.

Cool.

Hermes couldn’t hold back his laughter even with his bloody appearance.

The sight of him coughing nonstop and still laughing at the same time.

“The will of the Ascendant who could see farthest in this world… … If it messes with the door instead of guiding it, it’s no wonder that the system itself is broken… … .”

“You are not an Ascendant. It’s just an incarnation devoured by his memories.”

said Lennok, rubbing his aching hand.

“….”

“If the spirit of the Ascendant does not respond beyond the door, will your existence, unbound by the body, also perish?”

The reason Hermes has been able to exist while changing bodies so far is because he was a being that was deeply encroached on by the ascendant’s memories beyond the door.

However, if the system of the Ascension Gate is broken, Hermes will not be able to exist in the same way as now.

That would be tantamount to true death even for Hermes himself.

Lennok was asking if Hermes himself fully accepted the fact.

However, Hermes laughed at Lennok’s words as if they were unreasonable.

“Lyman, what does that mean…In this world, we are dying every moment without even getting the qualifications we deserve.”

“….”

“As a seeker looking for an answer, even after checking the memory of the inquiry…Do you not stop contemplating death?”

Hermes giggled.

“That is not my idea of salvation…If the plan had succeeded, everything would have been swallowed up and disappeared… … It’s a meaningless question and answer.”

“okay. I guess so.”

Lenok replied and slowly put his hand on Hermes’ shoulder.

The figure of Hermes leaning weakly on the throne, as if he were about to slip at any moment.

“But I believe that even that question and answer is a process to obtain qualifications.”

fear of death. longing for life.

Lennok wouldn’t have survived if he hadn’t fully recognized and accepted that fear and hope.

The same goes for the ending with an undetermined answer and the end approaching at the end of cause and effect.

The despair that there is no next is always directly related to the obsession with life.

At the point of denying that fact or thinking it meaningless, Lennok ends up being different from when he first fell into this world.

not different. It doesn’t change.

Even as everything around him changed, Lennok was trying to remember his first wish.

“It’s a process…whoop whoop… … .”

Hermes’ eyelids trembled and then slowly lost their strength and began to fall.

Exhalation begins to slow down rapidly, and even the heartbeat rapidly stops functioning.

The suspension of normal life reactions, which is completely different from the time when he survived for a long time after being decapitated in the Simseonggwan.

The door system is broken, and Hermes’ ego is rapidly losing its staying power and disappearing.

Hermes murmured in a strained whisper as his breathing stopped properly.

“Still, I….”

Hermes stopped breathing without finishing his words.

At the same time, the flow of the door that absorbed everything in all directions stopped completely, and the ring of light that floated above the throne collapsed.

Woooooo!!

A roar that shook the entire workshop of Hwadeokjingun. The body of Hermes, whose breath was cut off by the shock, was also greatly shaken.

The storm stopped and came like a lie.

Lennok looked at Hermes’ corpse, slumped in his chair, and stepped back.

Tuduk!!

The ironclad wings inserted between the thrones fell off and supported Lennok’s body instead.

[Confirmed that the function of the Ascension Gate is completely stopped. I finished copying up to the program code matching rate.]

“…okay.”

Hearing Darby’s report, Lennok slowly caught his breath and turned around.

Side Squad agents glaring at Lennok in disbelief.

It’s not that they didn’t want to intervene in the current situation.

However, the hesitation that he couldn’t approach hastily considering the safety of Lennok and Hermes.

Lennok accurately captured the moment and destroyed Hermes and the Ascension Gate itself with a single bullet.

This is the plan agreed upon in advance with Maya. From now on, it is an area to be thoroughly judged and overcome.

“It escapes the defense tower and immediately escapes pursuit. Considering the remaining magic power, at least twice-”

The moment he made a quick decision and spread his armored wings wide to escape from the top of the Defense Tower.

A voice echoed from behind Lennok’s back.

“Still, I believe I am not wrong.”

A calm and clear tone that is completely different from the previous one when he was dying powerlessly.

The size of the will contained in that tone was so powerful and noble that even Lennok could not easily judge it.

“…!!!”

As soon as Lennok, who turned his gaze away, raised his magic power, a

wave of pure white burst out from behind Hermes’ back, dyeing the sky white.

Aaaaaaa!!!

A twist of the law of expansion of intention with the foot of magical power.

There is no harbinger of a series of miracles.

At the same time as it unfolds, it invades reality, changes the laws, and transforms all existing materials into its own.

Kiyiing!!!

All the inorganic materials present in the workshop of Hwadeok Jin-gun were transformed into pure white platinum, and the

agents shouting and screaming with flashing and urgent expressions hardened as if time had stopped.

At the end of the empty timeline, only the corpses of Lennok and Hermes retain their color.

No, could that being who had spoken to Lenok just now be called Hermes?

Whoop!!

From behind the pure white throne, someone walked out slowly, holding Hermes on the shoulder, who had stopped breathing.

As if creating his own body on the spot, the platinum substance was entwined and rose up, transforming into a human form.

It turned into a figure that was perfectly identical to that of Hermes, who had stopped breathing.

A human body with no sign of anything bizarre.

Pure white pupils that are not transparent. He said, facing Lennok with pure white eyes that didn’t have focus.

“When looking into someone’s memory, on the contrary, you should be wary of peeking into your inner self.”

“….”

Each time Lennok could not hide his agitation and slowly backed away.

He also naturally took a step forward and opened his mouth.

“It’s not pleasant to have precious memories shared, but there are facts that can be known because of it.”

“you….”

“You are more invisible than anyone I have ever seen.”

he laughed.

“So I wanted to meet and talk in this way.”

A subtle smile as if smiling with only the corners of the mouth raised with an expressionless face.

It’s awkward, as if an existence that has lost all of its humanity is forced to imitate a person’s smile.

But Lennok couldn’t answer his smile.

It was because he intuited that this platinum time and space, his words and his attitude of asking for a conversation were pointing to a possibility.

This existence standing in front of his eyes was not a member of the Ex Machina that Lennok had been dealing with in Machina.

“Since when?”

Lennok asked quietly.

“You have to pay a price to bring something from beyond the door. But you completed the Ascension Gate and did not pay the price. There was no time for that. rather….”

“A price is what you have to pay to bring someone else’s.”

he answered quietly.

“That’s why I’m not paying the price. There is no reason for that.”

“What is that….”

“More than anything….”

He slightly averted his gaze and looked at his corpse lying on the throne.

The smile on his lips seemed to come back to life for an instant.

“[I] don’t speak so frivolously, Lyman.”

Realizing the meaning of those words, Lennok fell silent.

Undoubtedly.

Standing in front of Lennok now was not the member of the Ex Machina, who had been eroded by the memories of the Ascendant and had been mistaken for the Transcendent.

The Prime Minister of the Ruined Kingdom, the Ghost of Steel, the Platinum Commander. A war agent who destroyed several civilizations.

The great spirituality that he gave his life to summon from beyond the door.

A true transcendent who obtained qualifications in the old world.

Ascendant Hermes Orochnier descended to the Third World.

“World”, a game that boasts extreme freedom. In “ver.3.0”, I decided to put everything to increase the magic talent! All stats are all about magic! Instead of enhancing the character’s magic talent, took a huge amount of demerit characteristics. But, it doesn’t matter. I will create the greatest Wizard character, even if the character looks like a corpse. But…. What is this? I became that character– a character with genius talent, but can’t pass a day alive without taking medicine.
