Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Episode 816:

Knot (3)

Kashuin, the archangel of the old world who serves a failed god.

A strange being who realized its existence beyond the Ascension Gate and entrusted itself to Lennok.

He uses the qualifications possessed by the priestess Seina to forcibly stimulate his power, causing him to go berserk.

The moment when Kashuin, with both wings spread wide, soared to the spot and burst into gray-white brilliance.

The disk-shaped sanctuary spread out as if rotating around the archangel, and began to wipe out all the military spirits around it.

[Die, die…!!!]

For someone who is called an angel, he lets out an unbelievably ferocious battle cry and frantically swings his thoughts in all directions.

[Go away, you dirty and ugly ghosts!!!]

Kwaaaaaaang!!!

The thoughts and twisted magical power that Kashuin spewed out were so intense that the surrounding military spirits were swept away, creating a temporary void beneath the cavity of the memorial tower.

Under the gray-white sanctuary revolving around the archangel, the military spirits cannot endure it and either disappear or run away in a hurry.

[It hurts, it hurts!!!]

[It’s not our land. It’s not our power!!]

The spirits of Requiem, who were observing the situation, were also embarrassed by Kashuin’s sudden appearance and hesitated for a moment.

[Where on earth is the Holy Spirit of that level of hierarchy…!!]

[Stop it. Once the sanctuary is fully declared, it becomes even more difficult to remove!!]

Although he lost the god he worshiped and became corrupted, Kashuin is a powerful Holy Spirit who received the name of an angel in the old world.

Not only do the thoughts and magical powers he emits have real power, but they are no different from the formless ghosts.

Even the spirits of Requiem, who were spouting out their anger towards Lennok, were unable to stop their eyes from momentarily focusing on Kashuin’s presence and being wary of him.

While everyone was shaking due to Kashuin’s rampage, Lennok took out an old pencil with trembling hands.

The five fingers of Enakpil.

A disposable, consumable artifact that allows the user to temporarily transfer space and escape from a dangerous area.

After learning the blink technique, the frequency of using it decreased significantly, but Lennok still kept the spare.

“…Oh Reese!!”

“….”

He grabbed the judge who couldn’t answer and stuck an old pencil under his wrist.

At that moment, Lennok and Oris’s new form left the empty space of the memorial tower and tumbled down the stairs located far away.

Boom boom!!

Lennok’s complexion turned pale in an instant as he rolled between the stairs, his body completely broken.

If I hadn’t gathered up what little magical power I had and put on a shield, I wouldn’t have been able to withstand it and would have passed out.

“Wow…!!”

A new type of Lennok that drags Oris’s collar with magic thread and quickly slides between the stairs.

The heroic spirits of the Requiem Pavilion, who immediately recognized the sight, began giving orders to their subordinate commanders.

[The guy is running away… We have to catch him.]

[It doesn’t matter if we don’t capture him alive. You must get his soul at least!!]

[Move the military orders to push him away. It is our job to build a path.]

A being that not only invaded the Infinite Sanctuary but also damaged and destroyed the remains of the Ascendant.

At this point, when everything was ruined in the aftermath of the battle that took place within the sanctuary, all plans made to resolve the failure of the night tour were completely in vain.

The unbelievable reality that the plan that had been carried out by gathering all the heroic spirits of the Requiem Pavilion and the power of the monarch’s soul city was collapsed by just one magician.

But that’s why I knew even more that I had to arrest Lennok’s new brother here and steal all his memories and powers.

Even if he is a sinner who has committed a serious sin that is difficult to forgive, his strength and talent are so strong and foreign that it is difficult to find them in this city.

Then, when Lennok was tired and wounded, he had to obtain that power.

[Ooooo!!]

Although the Holy Spirit-type magic power was unleashed through the Archangel’s compassion, not all military spirits in the memorial tower are affected by the magic power.

Among the souls subordinated to the tower, there are many military spirits strong enough to be unaffected by such magical power.

Those people also instinctively felt a strong attraction to Lennok’s presence and began to chase him like crazy.

Doo doo doo!!

Hundreds of military orders surged like water from all sides of the stairs of the memorial tower.

It opens its mouth wide, stretches its arms and legs in a trance, and continuously lets out soul-stirring screams.

A group of military leaders quickly catch up with Lennok, who is tumbling helplessly down the stairs with his body bound by magic thread.

In the meantime, Oris, who was helplessly clinging to Lennok’s magic thread and rolling around, vomited out words with difficulty.

“…Foolish human being, run away alone.”

“….”

“Neither of us can escape from the tower. “This is not a situation where I can save you and run away like before…!!”

Wow!!

A military spirit in the form of a gigantic beast gives a loud beating as if waiting for the two people at the bottom of the stairs.

Lennok’s new form, which narrowly avoided the magician by twisting its body, accelerated as if sliding under the military leader’s legs.

However, he could not even control his strength properly, so he landed on his back against the wall of the tower stairs.

bang!!

“…Ugh.”

“Look. “Now you’ve become so dull that you can’t even control your manipulation techniques properly.”

Oris chuckled as he collapsed at Lennok’s feet.

“Throw me at those guys and run away. Now, even if it gets eaten by those guys and disappears, I actually

don’t feel that great about it-” “You think I brought you here for some reason.”

Okay!!

Instead of answering, Lennok stepped on Oris’s face, took out the elixir from his arms, and drank it.

A crooked obsidian mask and a shadow robe torn to shreds on all sides.

As I shoved the vial into my mouth with a stiff hand, the elixir flowed down between my lips.

Lennok wiped his mouth with the end of his sleeve and shook his head, laughing as he looked at Oris trampled under his feet.

“Don’t worry, I plan on dragging you until you cross the Hedrain River, even if you don’t want to.”

In order to escape out of Yorta, you will have to re-cross the Hedrain River that you crossed on your way back.

In the process, a guidepost is needed to guide the direction of the river heading outward.

When he came, a priest took his place, but she disappeared after completing her role on this journey.

That’s why Lennox rescued Oris and somehow dragged him away with him.

“…Hehe, what a cocky guy.”

Oris then just giggled as if there was nothing he could do and was dragged by Lennok’s hand.

But even for a moment, Oris lost all remaining consciousness and lowered his head.

Until now, the only limit was wasting time by being tortured against Jinhonjeong.

It would be difficult to expect any meaningful help from the judge here.

There are no ghost sharks to transport them to the basement of the tower like there was when they first escaped from the memorial tower.

Even if Onion’s ghost ship was brought out, it would only be a useless obstacle in this place where there is no waterway.

You have to at least leave the memorial tower and go down to the canal where you can see the Hedrain River.

As you continue down the stairs and get closer to the ground, the number of military orders blocking your path continues to increase.

[soul… Give me at least your soul!!]

[The heroic spirits of the Requiem Pavilion promised to incarnate.]

[That body is now mine!!]

But even with his exhausted body, Lenok continued to break through them and began to find a way to the ground. .

It scatters the consumable artifacts it has prepared without hesitation, picking at and disrupting everything in sight.

A magic-embedded incendiary bomb that randomly fell between the robes was fired on the spot, simultaneously pushing away the attacking military spirit and Lennok’s body.

Quaaaaaaa!!

The floor and walls of the tower were shattered, creating a crack that forced the user to jump over the stairs.

He stumbled as if he was about to fall down at any moment, without even thinking about taking care of the wounds that had pierced his shield and scraped his limbs.

I am scraping up the bottom of my magic power and constantly drinking potions to replenish it.

The moment I crossed the last hallway stairs leading to the ground.

Before my eyes, the entire hallway and stairs of the tower turned upside down, spinning upside down, rewinding the entire space and erupting.

“…!!!”

The moment when I was unable to resist the sudden turbulence throughout the tower and was swept away.

Before he knew it, Lennok was standing again in front of the huge cavity surrounded by the tombstones of the Requiem Pavilion.

Wow!!

The first place where the Archangel’s compassion was used to create chaos and Oris’ spiritual body was dragged along to escape.

One of the heroic spirits floating above the monument spoke to Lennok, who was standing staggeringly.

[This tower, created for the souls who participated in the Mangwi Night Journey, exists in the material world but is not material.]

“….”

[It has the shape of a tower, but is not a tower, and has the structure of a staircase, but is not a staircase.]

Re The heroic spirits whispered as if laughing at Nok’s situation.

[Similarly, just because it is shaped like a door, it does not necessarily mean that it is an escape route to the ground.] The

military city of Yorta.

The memorial tower located in the center of the city has the shape of a tower, but is not an actual tower.

Its essence is a soul bridge built using the military spirits that participated in the Mangwi Night Journey as parts.

Therefore, by manipulating the commands that exist as parts of the tower, the structure and stairs can be freely reorganized and even the paths can be changed as desired.

A miracle that manipulates the stairs of the tower and traps Lennok so that he can never physically escape.

The eerie intention is that the purpose is to completely obtain Lennok’s existence right here.

[Although he is already dead, he is a vessel of an outstanding magician who can survive even after competing with the body of an ascendant…]

The heroic spirits of the Requiem Pavilion whispered, unable to hide their greed any longer.

[I actually want you more than the remains of Do-rae, which were kept in a careless state.]

“….”

[If not now, it would never be possible to keep a scoundrel like you in this place.]

Among the dark and damp castle . A dark desire that is felt blatantly.

The old will now shows itself without hesitation and extends its hand toward Lennok.

Saaaaa!!

The nine heroic spirits that left the monument rose up all at once and spun above Lennok’s head.

The hazy soul flames gathered together and rotated counterclockwise, turning into a hand reaching out towards Lennok.

From the ceiling of the common room, nine fingers approached Lennok as if to embrace him, whispering quietly.

[Rejoice, human….]

[You will become our servant and personally raise the flag that restores the meaning of the night journey.]

[Become the corps commander and vanguard to announce the resurrection of our Yorta and sound the alarm in this world once again.]

[I will do so.]

Rather than having one of the Heroic Spirits of the Requiem Court take charge of the task, all nine Heroic Spirits occupy and control Lennok’s body.

Instead of taking possession of Dorae’s remains and raising him up, are you planning to replace the plan with Lennok’s body?

From the beginning, as soon as they saw Lennok emerge from the dead, they had dreamed of doing more than simply punishing him.

“….”

The touch of the heroic spirit enveloping his body like blue smoke above his head.

Oris collapsed unconscious at his feet and the artifact left in his arms.

Magic power at its lowest point and a body reaching its limits.

“okay.”

Lennok, who was looking at the approaching heroic spirits without a word, smiled and closed his eyes.

“If you want, I’ll show you at least once.”

That what they want can never come true.

If I had to show here that it would never be possible to interfere with Lennok’s existence, even if it meant killing him.

If you can buy some time by doing that, that’s fine.

The moment when Lennok thought so and slowly walked forward towards the approaching spirits of the Requiem.

A dark shadow hidden beneath the cavity of the tower.

Someone’s voice rang out from the other side.

“This is so pathetic.”

Just by exhaling, the air vibrates and it whispers like a tremble.

Even though he was whispering softly, the tone vibrated like thunder and rang out like the roar of a predator.

“I wouldn’t have saved you so I could let you go like that.”

“…!!!!”

Lennok even forgot to breathe when he heard that voice, and the spirits of the requiem stopped in place.

[…Who is it?]

[Who is entering this memorial tower without permission and spying on the secret stories of the heroic spirits?]

[Reveal yourself!!]

“…No.”

Lennok muttered inadvertently at the shouts of the heroic spirits.

The voice of a predator echoing from beyond the shadows.

This is because I clearly remembered the evil sound that I could never erase from my memory once I heard it.

There is someone here now who should never be here.

“This is definitely…!!!”

Wow…!!

There was a sound as if something was being strangely twisted.

A noise that sounds as if something real is being forcibly crushed.

A strong sense of disconnection that seemed to connect the entire space where I was standing right now from a place so far away that even Lennok’s senses could not reach.

As if something had appeared in this place. On the contrary, it was as if something had disappeared from this place.

This was the moment when Lennok, who sensed the manifestation of this incomprehensible contradiction, suddenly raised his gaze.

A sharp flash of light passes across his cheek and disappears.

One of the nine monuments standing behind him snapped in half on the spot.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

[Ahh!!]

One of the nine heroic spirits that landed on Lennok let out a terrible roar and twisted its body like crazy on the spot.

[How can this be…!!]

[How could the monument made of nebula be broken just by shock!!]

Was it more shocking that the monument that held the requiem stone was broken than the pain the spirit was in?

A huge vibration rang out from behind the heroic spirits who were screaming in confusion, forgetting that they had even taken Lennok’s body.

thud!!

Just by taking a single step, all the steps of the tower seem to shake.

The momentary shaking of moving the foot, carrying the weight and shifting the center of gravity is a miracle that is conveyed to everyone present.

In the middle of the place where military spirits and requiem spirits were rampaging from all directions in chaos.

Only Lenok broke into a cold sweat as he faced the muted scales flashing beyond the shadows.

thud!!

A silent figure that sinks darkly even in the dark cavity of the memorial tower.

Every time I walked along the shadows, the overwhelming shape gradually emerged beneath the hollow.

thud!!

The tail, which is straight like a rebar, rotates and maintains its balance along the softly sparkling ink-colored scales.

With one hand, it grabs and eats a whitish military spirit, with its elongated snout and tightly packed sharp teeth.

Bright yellow reptilian eyes that seem to stare indifferently and murderously at everything in this place.

Kwaaaang!!!

A thought so huge and ferocious that I can’t understand why I’ve noticed it until now.

“ah.”

As soon as it appeared, the crocodile giant attracted the attention of thousands of military spirits, spitting out the spirit body it was chewing and muttering.

“It tastes a lot worse than I thought.”

There must be countless nicknames created to reverence and fear its power and nature.

However, grandiose modifiers had no meaning in explaining its existence.

Only his name explains who he is and makes sense of all his actions.

A member of Pandemonium. Retired war mercenary, traveler on pilgrimage.

Croken Asillus.

A monster more dangerous than anyone else who should never be here.

He was standing in the middle of the memorial tower with his head tilted back.

“After all, I don’t like the scraps left behind by other people.”

Kroken looked at Lennok with glowing reptilian pupils and smiled wryly.

“So I guess I’ll have to take action myself now.”
