The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 957 : Prohibition
(12)
[It’s a good law.]
“…What?”
Duris’ workshop is deep inside.
A secret safe that only VIP customers who have used the workshop for a long time can enter.
While Elvato and the others were not awake, Lennok easily found the law book left behind by the Second Apostle.
Although I was not told the location of the safe, there were traces of the Second Apostle in the VIP customer list, so it was not difficult to find it.
There was a name written next to the ledger, perhaps to distinguish the customer, but it was probably a meaningless pseudonym anyway.
What is important is the contents said to have been left behind by the second apostle in the safe.
After calculating the security barrier and opening the safe, what Lennok discovered was a transparent bracelet that glowed white.
Surprisingly, it was such a strange object that even Lennok could not guess its abilities from the outside.
Faced with the teachings of the church whose abilities he could not immediately understand, Lennok summoned Kashuin instead of thinking for a long time.
The archangel of the old world gave Lennok an answer based on his own memories.
[Voluntarily do good with all your body and mind, forgive pain, anger, and resentment, and seek to increase good dharma based on all goodness.]
Kashuin’s voice calmly rang out.
[This will become a precept that replaces the ethical principle.]
“It seems like you have forgotten the details of the transaction you made after meeting the religious leader last time.”
Lennok, holding on to the archangel’s sympathy, said angrily.
“I would have said that I would cooperate in good faith. Summarize in an easy-to-understand manner.”
[Tough guy… In short, it is a dharma tool used to protect the soul by practicing good law.]
Kashuin explained calmly even though he grumbled.
[If you faithfully follow the doctrine and do good deeds, the karma will accumulate and become a barrier blocking the user’s soul.]
“…Are you saying this is a type of mental barrier that is artificially built?”
[It is a much higher and indirect form of Dharmakaya than that. Literally, it is an item that symbolizes the Dan rule that if you do the dharma and get a reward, your karma will benefit your actions.]
“….”
It is a piece of equipment that gives you the ability to protect your soul by doing good karma.
Just like the doctrines and norms of religious groups, even Kashuin’s explanation is extremely difficult.
Anyway, according to what the archangel summarized, it would be close to a kind of protective equipment that protects the soul.
However, it was quite interesting to know that good karma designated by the religious order was required for the Dharma Treasure to function.
While Lennok was contemplating the unusual mechanism of operation, Kashuin spoke in fascination.
[It must be a rare treasure even in the religious world, so I don’t know why this treasure of the law was hidden in the world’s treasury.]
“It doesn’t seem to be an ordinary treasure of the law.”
[This is an item made by trimming and processing the sari left behind by an angel like me after his death. It is a product that is not easy to process, let alone mass produce.]
“….”
[It was originally an item for believers in the church, but it would actually be of greater help to non-believers like you.]
Kashuin explained.
[The flames sent by the gods of the open sea are not something a mere human can endure, so this law will prevent the gods from watching over you.]
“Is the protection of the soul a force that works in that way?”
Lennok nodded, grabbed the pure white bracelet and slowly put it on his right wrist.
“Not bad. “If you can avoid God’s eyes, it might be useful in its own way.”
Lennok, who has the spirit of a wizard and the ability to target resistance, is not affected by the flames of foreign gods.
However, regardless of that, being able to avoid the gaze of foreign media was definitely a useful ability.
A book of law that can only be produced by a denomination that has long explored the ocean and God.
And there is no doubt that it is a valuable item that would be kept by the Second Apostle and not anyone else.
Wooooow…!!!
When Lennok put the Dharma Treasure on his wrist, the priest’s authority radiated as if resonating with the Dharma Treasure of the Heavenly Spirit World.
As if the authority left by Seina Naidri was recognized and confirmed, the light of the Dharma Treasure gradually subsided and became quiet.
Lennok, who stared at it for a moment, immediately returned to the workshop and woke up Elvato Duris, who had passed out.
Although we cannot explain the identity of the Second Apostle, we need to explain the fact that he knocked out the guests in the workshop and escaped.
If he didn’t tell me that in the first place, it wouldn’t be surprising if Lennok would be blamed for everything that happened in the workshop.
“I can’t believe it was an attack…”
Elvato muttered, looking around the quiet workshop in bewilderment.
A bizarre scene where everyone in the workshop fell unconscious. Security devices and border equipment are also completely paralyzed.
Elbato, who understood that this was the result of the intervention of a powerful transcendent whose level could not be guessed, muttered absentmindedly.
“It’s not that other person, but that customer…”
“It seems like he met me.”
“He was a distinguished guest who had been coming to the workshop to get his glasses fitted for ten years.”
Elvato answered still in disbelief.
“I never had any doubts because not only my identity but also the guarantee of my origins was clear. “How…”
The second apostle said in his own words that he frequently uses this workshop’s quality assurance service.
Considering that he didn’t kill any of the humans in the workshop during the confrontation with Lennok, it probably wasn’t a lie.
In fact, it is quite possible that he was acquainted with Elvato Duris.
“Adjust your glasses.”
However, Lennok’s eyes quietly lit up as he listened to Elvato’s complaints.
“What service exactly did he request from the workshop?”
“I didn’t hear it directly, so I don’t remember it exactly.”
Elvato spoke cautiously with a nervous expression.
“I thought you were saying that your glasses often don’t fit properly.”
“….”
“I think there was a rumor going around among the craftsmen in charge of orders that you had really bad eyesight.”
“The dosage is not right…”
Hearing Lennok mutter, Elvato slightly lowered his head with an expression of embarrassment.
“sorry. “It was such an insignificant story…”
“No, it was meaningful enough information.”
“yes?”
Even if you become an apostle, there must be a reason why you have to wear glasses to protect your eyesight.
For an individual, it may be extremely trivial information, but for an incarnate Apostle, it is a sufficient clue to identify its characteristics and manifestation of power.
This is most likely because the act of looking at something or the eyes themselves contain a special power.
I might be able to use this information when I meet him again in the future.
After thinking that, Lennok nodded and turned around.
“I’ll give you time to sort out the workshop. “I will be waiting for you at the place where we met earlier.”
“Oh, I understand.”
While Lennok was heading to the room located at the back of the workshop, he heard the sound of Elvato hurriedly waking up the workshop staff.
The lobby becomes bustling and the screams of guests who didn’t even know they had passed out echo.
It will take some time to control the commotion and return the workshop to normal.
Jump up!!
Lennok returned to the room where he first met Elvato, locked the door, and sat down on a chair.
He leaned slightly toward the table, lowered his head, and took out a pocket watch from his pocket.
Kaise’s belongings obtained from a closed area.
An artifact of Reverse Heaven that Kaise Bajur of the past passed down through time to Lennok.
“….”
Lennok, who was looking at it with a complicated expression, opened the glass of the dusty old pocket watch.
Carefully extend the magic thread through the second hand of the stopped clock and dig into the bottom of the metal plate.
Let’s go…!
With my eyes closed, I traced the complex structure of the clock parts assembled under the metal plate with a magician.
The shape is so complex that even Lennok would have difficulty perceiving the order of parts and design structure unless he concentrated a little and looked inside.
The moment I carefully unscrewed the internally assembled screws and opened the bottom of the metal plate.
Lennok was able to confirm the presence of parts wound in a spiral shape beneath the metal plate.
“…found.”
Quicksand. An accessory used to control the second hand of a watch.
Exactly the same parts as drawn in the blueprint left behind by Oshuto Duris were assembled inside the pocket watch.
The difference is that the quicksand that actually exists inside the watch is charred black and stuck between the parts.
“….”
While Lennok was silently looking at the melted parts, someone knocked on the room door from outside.
“Wizard. “Are you there?”
Lennoc, who had put his pocket watch in his arms, flicked his hand, and the locked door opened and Elvato walked in.
“The cleanup was completed quickly.”
“We have decided to close today. “I couldn’t even explain the strange situation that happened today…”
Elvato answered with a bitter smile.
“If that customer visits the workshop again in the future, we will have to respond then…”
“No. “That won’t happen.”
“…yes?”
Lennok said, looking at Elvato sitting awkwardly across from him.
“I told you I would track him down and reveal his identity to you. “You will never appear in this workshop again.”
“….”
“If he finds the workshop again, contact the Magic Tower.”
“Thank you.”
In fact, it was an assertion at the level that Lennok would personally protect the workshop in his name.
Lennok stood up as he looked at Elvato, who was lowering his head as if he was impressed.
If the Second Apostle visits the workshop again, he will never use the identity he has been using so far.
If he is determined to hide his identity, it is unlikely that Elvato will notice him.
“Let’s just check the date of Kaise Bajur’s transaction statement and finish. “Thank you for your cooperation.”
“…Wizard.”
Just as Lennok was about to leave the attack without any hesitation, Elvato, who had been hesitant, belatedly called out Lennok.
“Among the belongings my father left behind, there are some that I would like to organize separately.”
“….”
“If you visit the workshop again someday, then I will….”
“I plan to go look for a very dangerous weapon.”
“…yes?”
While Elvato hesitated at Lennok’s sudden words, Lennok looked away.
“After I retrieve it, I might have to ask the workshop for maintenance.”
“….”
Lennok laughed as he said that.
“I will say thank you again later.”
* * *
[Vaylon Institute’s seminar presentation date confirmed.]
[Testimony that significant results have been achieved recently has been secured through institute officials.]
[The announcement of a new public magic is just around the corner.]
In a megacity where tens of millions of people live, not a single day passes. The news never stops.
Even though we compile news from all over the area, which is divided into dozens, and only post the most important issues, there is never a day when we run out of news stories.
However, the hottest topic in the Balkan Central Network was the corruption and death of Anathema.
[The city government officially announced that Armas von Anathema, the hero of the civil war, had become an apostle of the Guido Church…]
[He was born as an aristocrat of Arsnova and devoted his entire life to relief work, but behind the scenes he was a shocking cultist. [He has committed evil deeds…]
[All funeral arrangements scheduled after Anathema’s death have been canceled, so there is a possibility that Onion will be treated differently from the time when he was former Supreme Court Chief Justice…]
Lennok scrolls the screen. I muttered.
“Has the city government finally decided to make the announcement?”
[The search volume for an organism called Anathema exploded even on the deep web.]
Dabi stuck his head out and added.
[The awareness of my search engine slightly increased because of that, but the topicality on the central network must have been at a level that the central council could not control?]
“It wasn’t a topic that could be hidden in the first place.”
Although a siege barrier was deployed to prevent outside interference, how many superhumans attended the meeting?
Even putting pressure on superhumans, all of whom are heads of large powers or executives, to keep their mouths shut is a far cry.
Even if they weren’t the last ones left, it wouldn’t be surprising if the information was leaked by a warlock or an executioner.
While thinking this, Lennok scrolled down the news site and suddenly stopped when he saw an article.
[It is the first time in nearly 20 years that an Arsnova noble has officially died.]
[There is unprecedented interest in whether other noble families may come to retrieve his remains according to the central city’s procedures…]
[Giant If a central noble visits the city, the Senate is scheduled to respond directly according to the regulations.]
“Other noble families may come to retrieve Anathema’s remains…”
Lennok smiled bitterly.
“I guess this is why Slaine mentioned the Senate.”
Anathema’s body was going to be recovered by Lennok anyway, so it was Lennok’s responsibility to handle it as well.
However, it would be correct to view it as a favor from Slaine to warn him of the existence and intervention of the Senate.
After all, Anathema’s work can’t drag on for long.
If I don’t retrieve the taboo weapon now, things might get in trouble.
With that thought in mind, Lennok put his cell phone in his arms and walked away.
Boom boom boom!!!
A training room surrounded on all sides by solid black iron.
A muscular bird-headed giant, shirtless from the waist up, was engaged in exercise while carrying weights several times larger than his own body.
Hold a weight that looks like a giant truck wheel, one in each arm, and slowly rotate your shoulders.
Awesome geek…!!
Every time, the sound of the metal being twisted, unable to overcome its weight, rang out loudly.
Lennok, who was looking at the back of the bird-headed giant who was engrossed in exercise for a while, called his name.
“Felix.”
“Ah, half.”
Felix, who calmly turned his head despite sweating profusely, finally threw back the weights on his shoulders.
Wow!!!
Vibrations so intense that the entire training room moved.
Felix wiped himself with a towel and walked toward the entrance to the training room.
“Did you wait long?”
Felix placed his thick hands on his waist and his eyes sparkled with a motivated expression.
“So, can we start right here?”
“Well, that’s it.”
After hearing the truth about the pilgrimage, Lennok promised to help Felix deal with the magic of arrival.
This is because Lennok also wanted to confirm the exact concept of the ascension ritual allowed for those with physical abilities.
So, while I had time, I was planning to make a separate appointment and train with Felix.
“About the training we were supposed to do today…”
Lennoc cleared his throat and glanced at Felix.
“Something has to be done about Anathema’s legacy.”
“Ah…”
Felix’s shoulders sank sullenly as he read the ominous omen in Lennok’s voice.
“So you have a schedule. “If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do.”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you in advance.”
“no. “There’s no way you would have bothered to hide it from me, so it must not have been your intention.”
Felix looked away as if trying to hide his expression and asked in a bright voice.
“Then, is it okay for me to train alone today?”
“No, there’s no need to do that. “Training will proceed normally.”
“…?”
Lennok laughed as he looked at Felix, who was tilting his head in confusion.
“I said I would help you deal with the magical power of arrival, but I am not actually a person with physical abilities.”
Lennok answered.
“I am confident in quantitative analysis, but when it comes to handling the body, there are many more experts than me.”
“You mean…”
After saying that, Lennok looked back.
“What are you doing but popping out quickly?”
“…shut up.”
At that moment, someone slowly walked out from behind the iron door of the training room.
An eerie figure with a gaunt complexion, rubbing the blade of a spear against his palm and with flashing eyes.
A woman with her hair pulled back in a ponytail bared her teeth at Lennok.
“Wizard, don’t urge me.”
A sharp-looking woman standing behind Lennok and exchanging sharp words.
Felix, who belatedly realized the woman’s identity, belatedly took a deep breath.
“Paisha Grisburn…!!”
“This woman is the external instructor who will help you with your training this time.”
Lennok gestured towards the displeased Feisha and nodded towards Felix.
“I explained the situation, and more than anything, we agreed not to raise any objections even if you die during training, so don’t worry.”
“….”
Lennok looked back at Feisha, who was standing with a bug-bitten expression, and laughed.
“You can beat me with all your might. I allow it.”
“…Go back, wizard.”
