Episode 330. Disaster Level: Cloudy (3)
Mathis Dean Carr, Senior Black Magician.
I suddenly remembered what he had said. Matisse’s office. Matisse cautiously opened his mouth as he looked at the magic tools stained black by the appropriate magic power I radiated.
– “Black magic is contradictory. The magic is to pursue the truth that will exist in the future. The proper magical power, the source of black magic, is tied to the past. I don’t dare to talk about it presumptuously, but… I hope Chief Lee will be lenient with himself.”
I’m past Matisse.
So I never talked about the Cloudy family.
I had no intention of shaming myself for being crazy.
Matisse merely warned me by guessing at my appropriate magic power.
– “I don’t dare to count, nor do I want to count. If, by any chance, Chief Lee falls into black painting…”
When I first heard about [black painting], I thought Matisse was just trying to scare me. Isn’t it like what a master who teaches special moves often says to his students? It was simply accepted as meaning that one should make a firm determination before entering black magic.
But…
[Abnormal status ‘blackening’ occurred.]
It was an illusion.
The voice that echoes the vision and thoughts is clearly different from usual.
I was able to notice right away.
Why did Matisse say to be careful of ‘blackening’?
-“Chief Lee’s past and background will flow backwards. I don’t have the confidence to face it. No one other than Chief Lee would be able to handle such a vast amount of suitable mana. Oops… I said something presumptuous. Please forget it, Chief Lee.”
Matisse stopped talking at that point and lowered his head.
But is it better to experience once than to hear a hundred times?
Even if you haven’t heard it to the end, you will realize the danger of blackening.
every time you inhale and exhale.
A suitable magic power that permeates the body.
the past.
Because I felt like I was holding my body and shaking it.
But if there’s one thing I’m different from Matisse or other black magic users… The source of my vast and suitable magical power is that it’s not me Ho-yeol Lee’s past, but Grandfel’s past.
Don’t be a goddamn bird.
In the meantime, if you ate it raw thanks to Granfell’s settings, it means that you are now suffering from more extreme blackness because of Granfell’s settings. In other words, the effect of blackening was overlaid on Granfell, which existed only as a ‘setup’, and began to feel like another ‘personality’.
Let’s see, if we go backwards…
Acknowledging Cloudy is probably the cause of the current situation.
Acknowledging Cloudy.
It meant that he also acknowledged the cruel end of the Cloudy family.
“Are you ready to insult my sister with that vulgar mouth?”
The voice of Grandfel resounding in my ears was extremely cold.
I felt like I would freeze just by mixing the words.
I can feel the weight of the past that Grandfel is carrying.
…okay. Was it like that, kitsch?
A group of shadow mercenaries who were said to have carried out a gigantic request related to Cloudy.
It seems that the specific content of the request was to assassinate Granfell’s sister, to be exact. I didn’t know that, and I wanted to tremble over something that had already passed…
My sister’s hair wandered around the auction house, and the family’s hounds became food for crows. If you know the full story of the tragedy… I can fully understand Kitsch’s feelings for not being able to show up in front of Grandfel.
and this moment.
The fact that the Arcana continent was covered with suitable magic power.
[Antonium, the capital of the empire, is engulfed in infinitely deep darkness.]
[The empire is engulfed in infinitely deep darkness.] [
The Arcana Continent is engulfed in infinitely deep darkness.]
In addition, even the sudden blackening.
Even if you don’t want to see it, you’ve been forced to watch it, haven’t you?
What kind of existence is blood and blood to Grandfel? Even to Wen-su, who are the existences of love and hate to me, even thanks to the cubangjeong that never forgot the sound of sister.
“Ah…”
I didn’t manifest any black magic, including the black crown.
The head of Maxima.
Ignite was already suffocated by the appropriate magic power.
“Oops…”
The pupil who lost focus was wandering without rest,
the tongue that had been spitting out the wrong words was paralyzed, and
the seat where he knelt was wet.
In fact, it was safe to say that the disposition was already over.
Ignite’s condition was not much different from the demon worshipers he saw in Mugan.
However, I did not stop at Grandfel.
As if he would pay for insulting his sister with Ignite’s life. He was preparing the manifestation of interference black magic with appropriate magic power. I could intuit
At this rate, Granfell would kill Ignite.
I fully understand your feelings. Beyond empathy, in some ways it feels a little refreshing. Ignite’s remarks made my teeth tremble even when I heard them.
Still, I couldn’t help but watch.
‘How severe are you going to be? Grandfell.’
I know that troublesome personality better than anyone.
Your noble pride is damn complicated, isn’t it?
If it were you, you would surely try to shoulder the aftermath of the blackening by yourself.
But I don’t want to see that…!
Is it because my body suffers in the end?
This is, of course, irrefutable.
But the biggest reason is that I can no longer ignore it.
maybe i did it myself
The end of the Cloudy family.
Grandfell’s infinitely dark past.
So don’t even think about carrying it alone.
[The blessing of the first world tree rejects ‘blackening’.]
[The abnormal status ‘blackening’ occurs.] [
The blessing of the first world tree rejects ‘blackening’.]
[The abnormal status ‘blackening’ occurs ]….
I twitched my hand in the midst of the non-stop flashing messages. In the end, the cause of the blackening was an appropriate magic power that was so thick that I couldn’t control it.
If only I could do something with the proper magical power that covered the Arcana continent… I would be able to save myself from being swayed by the dark history of Grandfel, which had been encroached on in the past.
And just in time.
I knew one suitable way.
To be precise, a newly acquired skill.
[Absorption (Item Skill): Parasitic creature envy absorbs the target. Depending on the target absorbed, Envy will have a new unique effect. The number of unique effects that can be stored depends on the hunger of the Envy. Current Envy’s saturation – 0%]
[Neutral parasitic Envy].
Jealousy of the Seven Deadly Sins.
A legendary grade item dropped by him.
I looked at Envy, who changed her appearance with jewels under the influence of [Simmi]. Envy didn’t even move an inch as if it were originally a jewel inlaid on the jacket. It’s admirable that you obeyed the order to watch quietly.
But now I have to take care of myself, Envy.
[The skill ‘Absorption’ is activated.]
When the skill is activated, Envy’s appearance changes from a jewel to a snowflake.
Like taking a deep breath.
Envy inflated her body several times, and then her eyes flashed.
[The neutral parasitic creature Envy absorbs ‘suitable magic’. Current Envy’s satiety – 1%]
1%.
10 percent.
50 percent….
Envy’s satiety rises terrifyingly. It’s been a while since I’ve been purified through the exorcism ritual, so I couldn’t check the performance properly, but it’s still a legendary item, right?
The performance of a legendary item was me who had confirmed it several times through Gwicheol. So, I thought that Envy would be able to neutralize it to some extent, even if it was suitable magical power that was thick enough to suffocate.
but.
‘!’
…Are you saying there’s no clue?
Appropriate magic power from the past.
The past of the Cloudy family.
It seemed that even legendary items were treated as ‘only’.
Burr!
[Currently Envy’s satiety – 100%]
[Envy digests the ‘appropriate magic’ absorbed.]
[Digesting – 0.1/100% until new unique effect is created]
Envy flinches and trembles, then turns back into jewels. Goes.
Even with a legendary item, it doesn’t even send a message.
Damn, I feel like I’ve been stabbed in the foot by an ax I believe in…?
Ttogak–
As the steps move by themselves, the miscellaneous thoughts disappear by themselves.
Ignite gets closer.
“Ugh geug geuk…”
Infinitely deep darkness.
What are you looking at in the right magical power?
Ignite flipped his pupils.
He struggled pathetically on the muddy floor due to his own example.
It wasn’t just Ignite.
“Heuk.”
“I feel like my head is going to break…!”
“I can’t breathe anymore.”
Soldiers in the plains groan in pain.
no, it’s not just them.
The system doesn’t lie.
Those system messages were clearly stated.
Appropriate magical power extends beyond Antonium, the capital of the Empire, and spreads throughout the Empire.
Beyond the entire Empire, it spreads throughout the Arcana continent.
However, my sight is still fixed on Ignite. At this point, I want to ask a serious question. Do you really want more than this, Grand Fel…?
‘If we go beyond the manifestation here, the Arcana Continent is…’
An unmeasurable disaster.
You may end up in a catastrophe.
But no answer.
Not even once.
don’t blink
Just the same gaze as always.
Stare at Ignite.
“Ouch…!!”
Is it the final hardship?
It was the moment when Ignite’s body jumped up.
Only then did my mouth open.
“I’m sure you’ve figured it out at this point.”
Calmly as if nothing had happened.
[The blessing of the first world tree rejects the status ‘blackening’.]
‘…!’
At the same time, bodily sensations returned.
fleeting moment.
‘…what?’
As well as the appropriate magic power that covered the Arcana continent.
It disappeared without a trace.
The usual cubic pavilion continues.
“Patriarch Ignite Maxima. Since you paid for your crimes on behalf of the 4 families, we will suspend the disposition of Yugrik Cansal Arcamond. Of course, in order to get the blessing back, you will have to prove your pride. Just like your ancestors did.”
“…!!!”
Except for Ignite, the heads of households answered in unison.
“I will keep that in mind. Dear Cloudy.”
“Cansal will follow that will.”
“Arcamond swears allegiance to Cloudy.”
[You have acquired the command over Clenz Ugrik.]
[You have acquired the command over Smite Cancell.] [
You have acquired the command over Rethel Arcamond.]
It’s sudden, but I try to organize the situation.
I don’t know if it’s because of pride or because of the disposition. Once the situation came to an abrupt end. If it was me in the past, I would have remembered the setting of Grandfel at this point.
『The first thing Grandfel learned as the next head of household was not to skimp on personal things.
The position of head of the Cloudy family was a position where even the slightest disturbance was not tolerated.]
But you, Grandfel.
You can’t fool me even if you fool the whole world.
Yes, throughout reality and the Arcana continent.
Even if it’s twisted, I can understand your twisted inner thoughts.
because there is only me
So I had no choice but to be serious.
…Are you really all right, Grandfel?
However, now that the blackening has been lifted.
There was no way I could hear an answer from the setting.
Tuk-tuk—
I just trimmed my clothes like a habit.
attitude at all times.
The inside that can’t be exhausted.
Hiding in pride that won’t be strange no matter when it sinks.
