Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 777
Ghost Journey (3
)
The figure of a huge worm running through a damp swamp.
Several slender legs come and go busily, sliding across the swamp like a water strider stepping on a lake.
Under the belly of the bug, there was a luggage compartment that looked like a blanket, and dozens of people were riding in it.
Passengers looking around with a wary gaze in the wildly shaking swaddle.
Lennok was in the middle of it, leaning over his swaddling bag and examining the map.
While wearing a shadow robe, he munched a paprika sandwich with one hand.
‘Once we cross the swamp and reach the headwaters of the river, preparations are complete.’
After getting off the train, Lennok was able to find a means of transportation near his destination and boarded it without difficulty.
I heard that there is no railroad connection in the swamp, so there is no choice but to use a unique means of transportation, but Lennok is the first to experience riding a live water strider.
Thanks to this, I had some spare time to travel, and I had time to check my future itinerary.
Of course, before that, there was a minor disturbance of interrogating the passengers who tried to take Lennok’s ring from the train, but what happened after the guide’s ghost ate the other ghosts was just a natural result.
At the very least, Lennok had never thought of letting go of someone who pointed a knife at him.
‘The problem is that I haven’t decided how to cross the river… … .’
A situation in which passengers in the same cabin were interrogated and told of several ways to cross the river.
However, Lennok still had no idea which one would make it easier to enter Yorta.
Since the information about the Headlane River is not that well known, information has been passed on only through word of mouth among officials traveling to and from the military city.
In the end, it seemed that it would be possible to guess only after personally checking the headlane river and undergoing a ‘checkpoint’ that passes through both the material world and the spirit world.
“hmm….”
I close my eyes and lean my head back between the swaying swaddling clothes.
Even after taking medicine for motion sickness, the shaking of the water strider every time it moved made me feel sick to my stomach.
Even the minor inconveniences that are usually dealt with with magic feel great at times like this.
A time when Lennok often realizes how dependent his daily life is on the versatility of common magic.
Wasn’t that why I decided to present this meaning itself in the form of a thesis?
Lennok’s expression as he looked down at the half-eaten sandwich became complicated, but he quickly made up his mind.
‘Let’s start with a clear goal.’
The first thing to do is to find traces of Kaise Bajour and the Black Consumer Project.
And to solve the curse of metamorphosis placed on the guardian spirit beast, they investigate the memorial tower of Yoreta.
In addition, it is essential to learn the incarnation spell to acquire the clone ability properly.
The problem was that all three objectives could not even be attempted without touching the most important secret and source of the military command city.
Kaise. memorial tower. incarnation ceremony.
There is no way that any one of them will not be treated as important in Yorta.
Wasn’t that why Lennok came to the conclusion that he had to go to Yorta himself?
‘Considering the work of Onion in Madrid, I’ll have to investigate Mangwi’s night and check the guide’s ghost.’
Thinking so, Lennok glanced up overhead.
[Ohhhh….]
Could the commotion in the guest room have been the catalyst?
Even now, the ghost of the guide hovers over Lennok’s head, devouring the detritus around the swamp.
Chomp Chomp!
The appearance of a guide who sighs in satisfaction while chewing and swallowing demons that are not even human in shape.
What is unique is that no ghosts follow the leader no matter how much he devours them.
And the fact that the passengers on the water strider didn’t even notice it.
A somewhat different reaction from when he consumed the ghosts of other passengers.
In the first place, what kind of meaning does it have in Mangwiyahaeng that the guide guides the soul?
‘Considering the turmoil at the Rabatenon Necromatics Department, it would be correct to think that he had this ability from the beginning.’
At the time of the agreement with the Mage Tower, which was conducted as Evan, the spiritual body that appeared in the demonstration of the Necromantics Department project was extremely afraid of the guide’s soul.
Because of the overly violent reaction, he quickly used his hand, but there must be a history of that kind of power in the guide.
‘It’s an item I got to cross over to Yorta, but it’s a stranger artifact than I thought. After all, if you’re not careful… … .’
Either way would be great if it was a process that served its original purpose, but you should also keep in mind the possibility that things won’t work out smoothly.
At least, all the travels and plans that Lennok had experienced had rarely turned out as easily as he had intended.
The moment Lennok let out a small sigh and folded the map near the headlane river and was about to put it into his arms.
“That one….”
The young man sitting blankly next to him looked at Lennok and opened his mouth.
Lennok, who had quickly put on his robe, replied in a cold tone.
“what?”
“I don’t eat…Aren’t you going to eat?”
“….”
His eyes were fixed on Lennok’s leftover paprika sandwich.
Seeing her drooling, she seems hungry.
Looking around at the others, they only looked at us with a wary gaze, but seemed unwilling to intervene.
All of those who cross the swamp using the water strider’s blanket as luggage are skilled in their own way.
They are people who have a desperate situation to the extent that they have to rent a bug boat to ride in a swamp full of monsters.
The situation is somewhat different from when I left for Makina.
Lennok, who was worried, tossed the sandwich he was holding to the young man.
“Ooh wow!”
A young man hurriedly holding a sandwich with both hands and eating it.
Even Lennok wasn’t that hungry, and he had plenty of food, so there was no reason to spare.
No one in the vicinity of Yorta knew Lennok anyway, so no matter how he dealt with it, there wouldn’t be any trouble.
‘It’s also a problem to decide what identity to name.’
Since I obtained the ring of the guide as Victor, it would be correct to name Victor originally.
In fact, Lennok also didn’t wear a mask, but didn’t he come with a shadow robe wrapped around him?
However, if you need force in Yorta, it might be more convenient to move as a class.
It was not impossible to work in Yorta as a class if you were determined and made a plan, but it was more of a concern.
‘I don’t think it’s difficult if you learn the incarnation technique quickly… … It’s a plan that can’t be guaranteed.’
Thinking so, Lennok looked at the young man eating the sandwich in front of him in silence.
However, the young man gulped down the sandwich and suddenly lowered his head forward and began to vomit.
“Oooh wow…It tastes awful!!
“….”
“There is no meat… … Why are you eating this?” Lennok sighed as he looked at the young man with his tongue sticking out with a teary face.
“hey. You should clean up the leftovers properly.”
A mature man with a brusque expression was frowning.
Looking at the leather armor and equipment that sticks to the body, it is a seeker.
It also seemed to be on the Pathfinder side.
“The swaddling clothes get dirty. Organize properly.”
“….”
“Can’t you hear me?”
It was only then that Lennok realized that the man was talking to him and raised his gaze.
“Why are you asking me that?”
“Because you gave that idiot something to eat. Will Mojiri, who can’t speak properly, understand the conversation?”
the man replied.
“I wanted to eat a sandwich with no meat flavor, so I left it, but the smell like vomit left a strong mark. You take responsibility and sort it out.”
“….”
Does that mean we have to clean up the vomit just to leave no traces?
If you’re worried about the monsters that inhabit this swamp, you’re not wrong.
Judging by the reaction of the other passengers, it seems that they were thinking the same thing.
Lennok nodded.
“Don’t let that happen. I’m sorry for my rudeness.”
“It’s time to apologize—”
At that moment, the man’s head jerked forward, and he collapsed onto the vomit.
iron!!
“Father Bebe!!!”
While screaming and having seizures, he rubbed his face on the pavement as it was.
A bizarre appearance as if being forcibly manipulated by someone’s hand.
Lennok murmured coldly as the others watched and fell silent.
“Instead, I want to pass the blame on to you, but will you be kind enough to understand?”
“Aaaagh!!”
A man jumped to his feet, his face covered in filth, and drew a sharp dagger from his waistband.
“I don’t know the topic even if this dog tells me at best…!!”
Pooh!!
At that moment, a long thorn protruding from the bottom of the wrapping cloth penetrated the man’s crotch.
“uh?
“A blow that pierces between the legs, rips through the intestines, and splits the heart.
The man who couldn’t say anything fell limp as he poured blood from Goku.
Those who realized that the thorn that had killed the man in an instant sprang up from under the swamp, jumped to their feet.
“Damn it!!”
“Damn, you’ve already been after the smell?!”
“Protect the water strider. I need help until I cross the swamp!!”
[Kieek!!]
Those riding in the blankets projected magic in all directions to protect the water strider, but it was already too late.
An insect resembling a praying mantis descended from a tree and cut the water strider in half with a sickle in its hand.
The insect, whose head and body were separated, collapsed as it was, and the cloth hanging under the boat was thrown into the swamp.
growl!!
As if the magical beasts swimming under the swamp waited, biting off the wrapping cloth, blood gushed out as if biting into grapes.
The only ones who survived were a few people who escaped the wrapping and climbed onto the insect’s back at the same time as the mantis appeared.
“profit…!!”
Unable to contain her anger, the woman grabbed Lennok by the collar.
“The water strider died because of you. How are you going to do this?”
“Let go of my hand.”
Lennok replied coldly.
“Unless you want your head split.”
“what?”
Awesome!!
At that moment, the head of the praying mantis, which had been running behind the woman, was cut in two and split.
Other monsters begin to eat the corpse that fell into the swamp while dripping dark green bodily fluids.
so-so!!
A figure that seems to prefer the corpses of the same monsters to humans.
With no time to react, the woman, stunned by what had happened in an instant, quickly let go of her robe.
The person who climbed on top of the dead bug’s head and looked at the situation said.
“It didn’t happen because of Rob. I can smell blood from far away.”
Smell of blood?”
“Someone bleed first near the swamp. There are a lot of monsters gathered around.”
“I am me…know….”
At that moment, the young man who was sitting on the bug’s back muttered blankly.
The woman looked at him and stepped back with a frightened expression.
“It’s a surprise! Why is this bastard still alive?”
“….”
While Lennok watched the young man intently in silence, the young man smiled and pointed in the direction of the swamp.
“Someone I know over there. I know.”
“…Do you know anyone in this swamp?”
“I’ll take you. Acquaintance.”
At the words of the young man, the others pondered for a moment, and the woman threw out her anger as if she were full of energy.
“Do you believe that? Let’s think about how to escape quickly!!”
“Run away? How are we going to get away from here?”
said the man standing on the bug’s head.
“We still have a long way to go to get out of the swamp. You have to jump over trees to cross the swamp without water striders. can you do it?”
“that…!!”
As the saying goes, there are monsters like praying mantises on the trees looking this way while drooling.
If you abandon the water strider and climb up the tree, they will attack without fail.
“If an acquaintance of this person is fighting over there, it might be better to cooperate with them….”
“If the other side made it this far, they would have the means to cross the swamp.”
As the conversation progressed to that point, the others seemed to have made up their minds as well.
A situation where it is impossible to cross the swamp normally at the point when the bugs are dead.
While things have turned out this way, everyone is thinking that we need to work together with the other side to find a way.
“If there had been a bloody fight, there would have been fewer people there. Maybe this amount of people can board.”
“Even if that’s not the case, if you kill and take it… … .”
“Shh.”
Of course, it should be assumed, but it is not something worth discussing right now.
All the passengers were united and trying to move in the direction indicated by the young man.
Lennok, who had been standing on the bug’s corpse, also followed the group.
“Careful, careful….”
“It won’t come off if it gets wet with demonic juice. Be careful not to step on it.”
Picking up the struggling young man, the group moves to the epicenter where the smell of blood has risen.
As you approach, the scent of blood rises.
It seems almost certain that this smell of blood, rather than the commotion that just happened, brought the monsters together.
Sussuk!
A view of a small island located on top of a swamp.
The appearance of several bodies lying dead on it.
It is a miserable figure that has not even been properly preserved, perhaps because it was eaten by a demonic beast.
While the party fell silent, a pale-faced woman looked around and muttered.
“Hey this…that’s right?”
“….”
“Is this right? Why are they all dead!!”
The woman grabbed the young man by the collar, who gave directions in a shrill voice.
“Where is your friend? If you lied, I’ll kill you here!!”
“no. this is right.”
The young man smiled brightly as he was grabbed by the collar.
“We need food to live. I need.”
“…what?”
At that moment, the young man’s head exploded and turned into a huge monster.
As it was, it swallowed the upper body of the party standing nearby.
Ugh support!!
As the monster’s jaws roared at the same speed as a flash war, it could not even resist and the human flesh was ripped off on the spot.
However, only Lennok, who stood among the group, was alive and well.
“….”
It wasn’t that Lennok dodged an attack or blocked the teeth of a young man who had turned into a monster.
As if the young man had intended, he avoided Lennok and killed and chewed up the others.
“You gave me a sandwich.”
The young man, whose head had turned into a grotesque monster, said with a chuckle.
“I will save you. run away.”
“….”
Could it be that Lennok didn’t kill me here with the grace of giving me a sandwich?
But instead of running away, Lennok stared blankly at the young man and said,
“I thought it was a monster that spoke human words, but it wasn’t.”
“…Did you save me?”
Even as he said that, the figure of a young man approaching with his teeth gnashing.
As if unable to control his appetite, he opened his mouth at Lennok’s head.
Lennok shook his head, staring at the elongated froth of blood between his teeth.
“The fable of the beast that repaid the favor is just nice to look at. I have no intention of becoming that target.”
“Go meat….”
Reason quickly disappears from the young man’s eyes.
“Your sandwich…Hungry for more… … .”
“Isn’t it hard to maintain reason? It will be hard to bear.”
Lennok seemed to understand.
“At least the ones I saw were similar. Instead of being consumed by madness, they are influenced and obeyed by their own will.”
“Ughhhh…!!”
“A taboo that is committed voluntarily contains the strongest immorality and contradiction. That’s far from the instinct that demon beasts feel.”
Unaware of the unusually friendly voice, the young man lunged at Lennok.
“Because you gave it to me…Feed me!!”
snap!!
The monster’s head swallows Lennok’s entire body from head to toe.
It shakes its throat as it is and swallows it in one gulp without chewing properly.
“Oh oh oh…!!”
It wasn’t until after the young man screamed and twisted his body that people began to appear one by one.
Saaak… …
A uniform uniform of pure white cloth and an expressionless face.
Each holding a weapon, making eye contact and slowly approaching the young man.
The moment when people tried to stab their weapons as hard as they could at the twisting monster.
damn!!
Countless red lines were drawn over the monster’s body, and then it exploded into dozens of pieces.
Kwaaaang!!
Lennok’s voice echoed from within the hideous, dismembered body of the monster.
“Monsters who have lost their intellect and covet human flesh aren’t the only monsters.”
“….”
“Human body transformation that deviated from the principles of the magic formula. Cannibalism based on human sacrifice. Strength that is not limited to hierarchies.”
said Lennok, who walked out of the crowd, who had turned surprised.
“Aren’t all the characteristics of the apostles made by you?”
After saying that, Lennok cast his gaze at the newcomers’ outfits.
Material made of pure white cloth. Simple decorations and unified attire.
Because the shape of the formal dress, which was familiar somewhere, was very similar to that of the group Lennok knew.
“Because I think we should check why you’re here.”
Seeing the followers hesitating and stepping back, Lennok smiled.
“The Guido Church. What are you doing against the Witchbeasts in a remote area like this?”
The epicenter of the swamp that smelled of blood and summoned demon beasts.
The ones hiding there and waiting for the party were the priests of the Guido Church.
“…He was someone who knew about the origins of the school. It is as you say.”
Among the believers who were looking at each other, someone stepped forward with a smile on their face and put their hands together in front of them.
“I was making apostles because I needed them. I wonder if Shinto-nim is also interested.”
