The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 887:
Eyes that See Destiny (23)
Rumbling…!!
A faint roaring sound.
At the same time, one of the CCTV screens was stained with purple flames and then turned off without a sound.
“….”
A chill running down my spine even though I was just monitoring from a long distance away.
Sebastian said, unable to hide his faintly trembling voice.
“The mercenaries stationed at the front gate of the business… were wiped out.”
[Hehehehehehe…!!]
“Exit through the passage next to the vent and run. “The target is the emergency staircase on the rooftop.”
All you can hear through the cell phone is the boss’s heavy breathing as he runs like crazy.
“The door toward camera 41 is completely closed. “I will turn left at the intersection where camera number 23 is located.”
[Oh, how long do I have to run away like this!!]
Quauuuuung!!
Flames swirl from a distance in the hallway, and an eerie roar echoes as it burns everything.
The desperate scream of a human being burning and melting can be heard faintly coming through the wall.
If even Sebastian got goosebumps, the boss who was nearby listening to the sound would already be on the verge of going crazy.
[No, it’s too far to the rooftop emergency stairs…!! I’m going to escape through the window!!]
“No!!”
Sebastian immediately shouted and cut off the president.
“The entire business area would be within Evan Martinez’s sensibility. Any attempt to escape via land will be caught immediately.”
[Then what should we do…!!]
Sebastian calmly responded to the president’s cries that seemed to cause him to panic.
“I called in an unmanned emergency airship. “This is the latest model that borrows from Professor Bylan’s anti-gravity engine and is capable of vertical maneuvering even in extremely high temperatures.”
[That’s it!!]
“I will come down and contact you at the time the boss comes out to the rooftop. “For now, the only way is to escape through the skyway.”
A powerful flame wizard specializes in occupying space and filling it with his thoughts.
Resonance and transition rangesCombustion and saturation. A power specialized for encompassing and controlling the widest range of all attribute magic.
If the opponent is a magician who has reached that level, there is no way to escape from his hands through half-baked means.
The only way to escape is through the sky, which has no altitude limit.
“president. You can buy it. “I have prepared all the necessary means.”
Sebastian calmly scolded the president.
“You’ll have to trust me for now.”
[That’s right. [Yes…]
At the point when Sebastian’s persuasion that Evan Martinez’s inaction was more than expected became true, the president stopped thinking about it all.
However, it is not strange to move beyond Sebastian’s guidance at any time amid the fear of being burned alive.
Sebastian was doing his best to keep his boss from panicking by making his voice as calm as possible.
Sebastian thought as he stared at the monitor.
‘President Domingo is one of the broadest among my customers. If only I could save you from here…!’
It’s like I owed a big debt to Evan when I recognized his true value and convinced him before other brokers.
If we can save President Domingo here, it will be much easier to attract new VIP customers in the future.
The moment when Sebastian was thinking like that and quickly trying to guide the next destination.
Whoop!!
A distorted flame flickered on the other side of the monitor.
A flash of fire started on one camera screen and traveled to the other camera in the blink of an eye.
Something with flames all over its body that travels at incredible speeds through the complex passages above the vast business site.
Grrrrrrrrr!!
Almost simultaneously, flames flooded across the dozens of CCTV screens Sebastian was watching.
Depending on the camera angle, light flashes in different directions and instantly crosses the entire screen.
Hwaaaaa!!
“This can’t be right…”
Sebastian muttered absentmindedly, realizing that it was the presence of a monster that had been massacring the mercenaries deployed at the business just moments ago.
What does it mean to show its presence simultaneously on all surveillance cameras installed throughout the workplace?
In fact, the opponent possesses enormous mobility that is not limited by the area and distance of this business site.
Running away from the beginning may have been meaningless.
While Sebastian was silent, the president’s voice rang anxiously through the cell phone.
-Sebastian! Where should I go!!
“…It’s on the left.”
Sebastian quickly came to his senses and picked up his phone.
All screens except the president were covered in flames, but the wizard had not yet appeared.
If the customer didn’t give up, Sebastian had no choice but to help the president until the end, just as he had first persuaded.
“It’s not far. “There will be a simple staircase leading to the rooftop next to the collapsed emergency exit.”
-Gasp…!! I found the car!!
Shake!!
With the sound of the door opening, President Domingo was seen through the camera showing the rooftop.
Sebastian’s voice became faster as he saw the president successfully reach the rooftop.
“Yes, there it is. The airship is waiting. Hurry up before it’s too late…!!”
Doo doo doo doo!!!
As if waiting for those words, an airship with lapis lazuli hanging from the rooftop of the business came down.
A rope ladder fell under the doorway where no one was sitting in the cockpit.
“Oh oh oh…!!”
The moment when the boss held on to the rope ladder with an indescribable groan and the airship immediately ascended to escape from the workplace.
A huge flaming palm grabbed the helicopter with both hands in the air and exploded it as if clapping.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
[…Ah?]
“Ah….”
Sebastian and President Domingo each sigh with different meanings.
A calm voice was heard from behind the president.
“You can’t run away.”
The president, who had been staring blankly at the helicopter that had evaporated without even leaving a trace, slowly turned his head.
Quarrrrr!!!
A giant fire giant larger than the size of a business building is standing on two feet and looking fiercely down at the rooftop.
The figure of a giant turning around, throwing away the completely crushed and melted remains of the helicopter in its burning grasp.
A hideous and grotesque shape, like a distorted monster, with its entire body flashing with purple flames.
A young man stood with his back to the flame giant twisting in the air, looking at the president with an expressionless face from the edge of the rooftop.
“All of your subordinates have already passed away, so is it okay for you to survive alone?”
“I can’t believe it…”
Sebastian lamented as he finally realized where the flames on the camera screen had gone.
The fire that spread throughout the business was not a means to chase after the boss.
It was just preliminary work to create a flame giant the size of a house using the entire huge business as firewood.
In fact, from the beginning, no one could survive in this workplace.
The president muttered the young man’s name in a trembling voice.
“Evan Martinez….”
“I know that name.”
Lennok laughed, tapping his ear with one hand.
“No matter how quickly you build your major, it still takes time to build a reputation.”
“….”
“Sometimes there are problems that only time can solve. That’s why patience is needed.”
The moment the cell phone the president was holding fell to the ground, Lennok walked towards him.
Sebastian, who came to his senses only then, shouted.
“Evan Martinez!! My name is Sebastian. Just give me a moment-”
There was no answer.
The moment Lennok gestured, the flames that rose up waved like a fan and instantly blew off the head.
Cheek!
As the boss’s headless body fell, Lennok turned his attention to the fallen cell phone.
“Oh, I’m sorry. “What did you say?”
“….”
Sebastian, who was watching everything on the camera screen, could not say anything.
Lennok laughed as he picked up his phone.
“Did you try to save the customer by providing a quote with only fragmentary information passed around in the dark? You have a good head. Should I say I’m quick-witted?”
“…that.”
Ttuduk!
The cell phone in Lennok’s hand was crushed by an invisible force.
“But I have no intention of looking at the situation of the trash one by one. “If you risk your life, you have to pay the price.”
“….”
Evan’s answer was extremely cold.
But Sebastian could feel the firm confidence in himself from those cold words.
This is completely different from the twisted confidence that notorious criminals often have.
A strong self-esteem that makes it impossible to be confident without having faith in one’s own capabilities or qualities.
A strange attitude that feels somewhat overbearing and not befitting of a person devoted to the eyes of the blue.
Just as Sebastian was thinking that he had felt this feeling somewhere, something that even an observer was forced to understand – “So, on
behalf of the others, make sure you warn this city.”
“…What do you mean?”
“I have no intention of taking my anger out on innocent people. “The reason I’m lighting a fire like this is only for one goal.”
“….”
“The smart ones will figure it out, and the stupid bastards will pretend not to know until the end and turn a blind eye. “It doesn’t matter either way.”
Lennok dropped his cell phone without any hesitation, trampled it with one foot and muttered.
“Because I will be the only one left at the end anyway.”
Kwasik!!
“….”
Even after communication was cut off, Sebastian could not get up from his seat for a long time.
Sebastian, who was staring blankly at the turned off monitor, reached out with difficulty and took the half-left wine in his hand.
He held the bottle with one hand, took a swig, and slowly stood up. My fingers trembled slightly as I dialed the number on my cell phone.
“…Jenny it’s me. Are you listening?”
Sebastian said, slowly putting the phone to his ear.
“I contacted Evan Martinez. “He… sent me a message.”
* * *
Shoot!!
Rain is pouring down.
Heavy raindrops fell on the dark cloud-covered sky, cooling the heated battlefield.
Cheeeeeek!!
Just by standing there, the figure of a fire giant evaporates all the raindrops in all directions and is enveloped in watery fog.
Purple flames flicker among the raindrops, eating up space and spreading out as if twisted.
The moment Lennok extends his hand towards the fire giant, the giant body distorts and is sucked into his hand.
Quauuuuung…!!
The flames turn into a huge flame ball in Lennok’s hand, accompanied by a strange rotating sound.
Only after the fire giant disappears does rain begin to pour down on Lennok’s head.
Shoot!!
Lennok turned around in the pouring rain and looked down at the street below his business, lost in thought.
The fourth flame core. And a crystal of magical power that has been stored up after being preheated and manifested.
An evil fire that blooms using negative emotions as fuel and whose firepower does not rely on ordinary firewood.
But that makes it perfectly suitable as a new spark in the red star system.
Clearly, embers like this are still hidden proudly throughout this city.
‘It’s just a little bit further.’
Simultaneous operation of the main body and the incarnation.
Even if it is stabilized using natural techniques, it is immediately impossible to completely control the shaking magical power.
That’s why Lennok sprayed and compressed his magic power to the outside and carried it around as an external magic core, but on
the other hand, it was also a process of convincing everyone of Evan Martinez’s actions in this city.
What kind of power and talent did the flame wizard who guarded Lapis Falseer have?
What means and methods will you use to build up your power to face the most infamous wizard in this city?
The process of filling in the blank space of causality, which is infinitely lacking compared to the reputation of fastness, so that everyone watching this situation can understand it.
‘If the operation of the incarnate body is successfully completed in this work, there will be more room to apply the identity in a variety of ways in the future.’
thought Lennok, with a wet cigar in his mouth.
‘It was reckless for an experiment, but it’s quite stable for a challenge. All you need is time.’
It involves operating oneself and the incarnation at the same time while being watched from all over the Balkans.
There are not many stages where the incarnation’s operational abilities can be tested as thoroughly as at this moment.
Just a little bit further.
There is no need to force a situation or instigate conflict; the situation will flow naturally.
All that remains is whether Evelyn can help Lapis in time.
The moment Lennok was thinking like that and was about to leave the workplace without any hesitation.
Someone called Lennok from behind and stopped him.
“Evan Martinez?”
On the other side of the rainy rooftop, someone wearing a pitch-black hood was looking at Lennok.
A shadow so dull that it is difficult to guess the face under the hood.
“I was waiting.”
“Who is it?”
“Central Council.”
The shadow pointed its finger at the sky.
“This is a messenger sent from above.”
“….”
I am trying to contact Evan directly in the upper house of Congress.
In fact, this was the first time the National Assembly had expressed its position since being wanted on charges of assassinating the vice mayor.
Considering the extreme division of factions within the Senate, it is highly likely that this is not the opinion of the entire Senate.
The story is worth hearing.
“Are you here because of a wanted order?”
“You can say yes and you can say no.”
“….”
As Lennok, with a frown on his face, took out an ignition stone, the other person quietly added.
“The presence you have shown in this city is truly impressive. “Quite a few nobles in the Central Council are impressed by your talent.”
“That’s not what I want to hear from the guys who hung a death sentence around my neck.”
“The wanted order was not issued by the Central Council. “The city government took action after confirming the vice mayor’s condition.”
Shadow explained calmly.
“Shouldn’t we distinguish between the responsibilities and powers that exist between Congress and the government?”
“If the authority of the Central Council were limited to that level, this city would not be in this state.”
Lennok sneered.
“What do you want to say? “Do you want to make a long speech about how power in the Balkans is distributed?”
“I can revoke the wanted order placed on you.”
“….”
“Furthermore, we will also handle all charges against Lapis Falseer.”
The hooded opponent said.
“We have already completed coordination with the city government. “With your consent, everything that has happened in the past week can be completely undone.”
In the past few days, has the government and the National Assembly finished coordinating opinions and begun to resolve the situation?
If they have decided to end things independently of whether Vice Mayor Weinstone is alive or dead, it is understandable why they would want to contact Lennock at this time.
However, the point of coming out in person like this and trying to notify Lennok of that fact in advance is that-
“There is a condition. “What do you want?”
“nothing.”
Shadow shook his head.
“You don’t have to accept any conditions. “Rather, I would like to ask you a favor from us.”
“Please.”
“Please continue doing what you were trying to do.”
“….”
Lennok was silent and the other person laughed.
“Just like now, you can burn this city to your heart’s content to save your master. Until the end. “Never stop.”
“Until the end…”
Lennoc couldn’t help but laugh along with his partner.
Because as soon as I heard those words, I realized what the other side wanted.
“Until the moment you stand in front of the fast?”
“yes.”
The other person nodded slowly.
“If you need a stage, we will prepare it. “If you need an actor, I can get you as much combustible trash as you want.”
“….”
“All you have to do is burn everything and show it. Because so many nobles in this city are wondering if your flame is truly comparable to that wizard.”
It was raining.
The person wearing a hood whispered quietly through the rain, unable to hear each other properly.
As if I was afraid that someone might be eavesdropping even at this moment.
“We believe that your presence may be the only counter to Fast Lightning at this time.”
