“Why, didn’t you win?”

Grisha, who was chained up, lifted his head and smiled, but Lennok’s expression was calm.

“Slowly stop. Isn’t it a waste of strength?”

“… … Damn, I was thinking of teasing you some more. It’s not fun at all because he’s a quick-witted guy.”

At that moment, Grisha’s chained body collapsed, and she walked out from behind with a normal face.

Lennok calmly took out a new cigarette.

Not surprising.

Even at the moment when she put a chain on her ankle and made the first attack, Grisha completely shook off the bondage of gravity and walked out from a completely different place.

The first time I saw it, I was confused, but after seeing it one more time, I knew for sure.

‘It’s a way to completely refract perception by hitting a huge force into space… … . Not the kind I can copy.’

A strangely powerful main force. And it is a simple ignorant method that cannot even be attempted without a powerful output that can fully discharge the enormous energy source.

It could not be said that there was no skill there, but it far exceeded the cost-effectiveness as a technique that Lennok thought of.

“Then shall we begin the second round? This time, let’s have fun hitting each other until Hana faints.”

Lennok replied sternly to her as she raised her strength and took a step forward as she spoke.

“why me?”

“what?”

“Did you think I would be furious or agitated if you sprayed me with such obvious provocations? If you come out so blatantly, you don’t get angry.”

“… … .”

At that moment, for the first time, Grisha was silent.

Lennok looked down at the scene and said calmly.

“The first time may be a coincidence, but when several signs overlap, it becomes more of an inevitability. Amon’s subtle attitude must have been part of that… … .”

The reasons were many.

In the first few days of arriving in the Dominion, Darby, the spirit, was constantly feeling someone’s gaze.

The fact that Amon, who followed the sorcerers in search of Lennok, showed an attitude of testing him even after finding out Lennok’s identity.

The dubious attitude of Lapis, who never brought up the subject until he came to the Dominion himself… … .

Even Grisha’s behavior, which seems to be forcibly arguing with Lennok.

It is certainly.

Despite calling Lennok to the Dominion, they were wary of accepting Lennok’s offer to join.

As the pieces came together in his head, Lennok’s thinking sped up.

“Perhaps what the lighthouse keeper said about the pandemonium isn’t a lie. But in the midst of that, the shaman took the lead, and the attitude of standing by and looking at it was somehow awkward. It’s as if he’s constantly watching my reaction… … . Right.”

Lennok nodded.

“You were worried that I might not have been in contact with Pandemonium already.”

“… … .”

A chilly silence passed.

Grisha’s main force, which had been resonating throughout the cavity, died down before he knew it, and Lapis’ closed eyes widened.

Amon, who was carrying Weizen, also stood up quietly and looked at Lennok.

“Perhaps it is because there is some means to shake my emotions and find out if I am in contact with the pandemonium. And the means… … It must have been using the ability of a thousand dogs.”

Are the words that Lennok carelessly spits out are bluffs without any grounds?

Or is it the hilt of a sword that hacks through the truth?

Looking at the reactions of the watchers, the answer was fixed.

“Whoa… … .”

At that moment, the enthusiasm on Grisha’s face was washed away like a lie, and she took a step back.

Grisha looked up at Lapis and shrugged.

“It ended up like this. Shall we continue?”

“… … no. That’s enough. Because I don’t think the results will be different anyway.”

Lapis responded with a calm expression and slowly stood up from her seat.

A dark glare was still shining from her eyes.

Lapis got down from the common altar and walked towards Lennok.

He was short, barely reaching Lennox’s chest.

It is a part that can be guessed that she is not very old.

Lapis looked up at Lennok, hesitated, then nodded.

“sorry. After all of this, I was going to explain everything, but it’s not going to be easy.”

“Keep talking.”

“Evan is right. Originally, I planned to shake Evan-sama with the help of Grisha-sama, and take advantage of the agitation to see the truth with my own eyes.”

“… … .”

“Under the celestial sphere of this lighthouse, the power of the celestial dog is stronger than at any other time. But even so, nothing seemed to shine on Evan-sama’s inside.”

Lapis honestly admitted all these facts without any excuses.

Grisha and Amon were silently enduring her decision by the side.

It was a completely different attitude from the one I ran out without listening to Lapis earlier.

At least it was proof that the dark shaman recognized the lighthouse keeper as his superior.

Lapis’s words continued while Lennok looked at the reaction around him.

“I don’t know if you know, but recently the momentum of the pandemonium has been unusual. Rumors are circulating that they are secretly trying to contact talented magicians like Evan.”

“Is that why you urgently need to verify my credit?”

Lennok tilted his head slightly and replied.

Smoke flowed from the mouth and spread widely in the cold air of the common room.

“It’s hard to understand with just such an excuse. If you want to convince me, you’ll have to come up with a more reasonable excuse.”

“… … .”

“Right now, it doesn’t seem like there’s much of a difference between you and Pandemonium.”

“It is no different.”

Lapis calmly admitted that naked fact.

This time it was Lennok’s turn to shut up.

“… … .”

“It is no different. In this age when even ascenders are giving up on ascending… … How can we be sure that we are doing the right thing, that we are on a perfect mission?”

“Lapis. that… … .”

Grisha tried to dissuade him from the side, but Lapis ignored it and continued talking.

“However, even though I may worry and suffer myself, I do not want to leave even an inch of delusion when I move my hands. That’s what it means to stand up against the pandemonium.”

“You mean you’re not going to leave a single doubt behind the two of you?”

“yes. The consequences of that choice, too, must be my share.”

Lapis said so and closed her eyes.

As if they were going to wait for Lennok’s decision.

“… … .”

Lennok silently crossed his arms and thought.

Lapis’ words were impressive, but Lennok had no intention of being swayed by unnecessary sentiment.

After all, what Lennok wanted was not to become a member of the Watcher, but to fulfill his purpose.

However, it is also true that I learned the reason for their rude attitude and the determination of Lapis.

It was also the fact that Lapis had no room for excuses for all these actions.

“Go back to the beginning.”

said Lennok, who chewed on the tobacco.

“To be honest, it’s hard to be attracted to the Blue Eye organization. Every pandemonium I’ve ever seen was just monsters… … I’m not sure you guys have the power to counter that.”

“… … .”

“But it wouldn’t matter as long as we exchanged deals with each other and pledged the future. If that’s okay, I want to find the drug lord’s safe in exchange for borrowing the ability of the celestial dog, as I said earlier.”

Let’s sort out the process and just look at the results.

Lapis tested Lennok before convincing him, fearing that Lennok had fallen for the pandemonium, and failed.

The fact that she apologized for the incident and made no excuses was not the issue here.

There is only one thing to know.

Are the powers of Blue Eyes systematic or elite enough to fight pandemonium?

Grisha, the sorcerer, must be a stronger sorcerer than Lennok thought, but he had no intention of making a decision based on that alone.

Whether they really have as much qualification as the words they spit out should be watched slowly over time.

Lennok also seemed to be relatively easier to control this way than to get involved with the group of uncontrollable monsters.

If handled well, they might be a very good shield in the battle against the pandemonium.

Lapis nodded coolly.

“All right. It’s not an apology for this incident, but for this matter, I’ll fulfill Evan’s request without any cost.”

“good. The story is over.”

It was only then that Lennok bit down on the tobacco and grinned.

“Now then, shall we take a look at the lighthouse keeper’s abilities?”

* * *

After a brief talk about the drug lord’s safe, Lennok and Lapis decided to take a day off to get to work.

It was the result of the combination of her excessive use of her dog’s ability and Lennok’s tiredness, who immediately came to the lighthouse after dealing with Weizen.

Grisha stopped Lennok, who was about to go out of the joint following Amon, who was hesitantly trying to guide him around the inn.

“hey.”

“… … What happened?”

Grisha winked at Amon before replying.

He managed to catch that gaze, quickly lifted the weizen, put it on, and disappeared out of the cavity.

There was no Lapis who left first, so only the two sorcerers remained in the cavity.

Grisha, who was staring at Lennok’s slightly nervous face, said with a puzzled expression.

“I got a feeling after fighting roughly. Are you level 6?”

“… … .”

“Well, it’s not something to hide like that. Regardless of your talent, you feel that you have won a battle using the change of character.”

Lennok, speechless, sighed.

Although he had never openly used disposition during the battle with Grisha, Lennok knew what it felt like.

From the perspective of a magician who has risen to the same level, the fact that he is not embarrassed by such a change in his temperament is what makes him guess the state.

“so.”

“Because I’m not the kind of person who just makes ends meet with words.”

Grisha said with a grin.

“I will show you something that will be very helpful. Can’t you just mess with it?”

“I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.”

“You did that earlier. Compared to the pandemonium, it’s not enough. I think that might be the answer to that.”

Muttering that, Grisha took a step forward.

Right after that, a huge amount of energy poured out around her whole body.

Kwaaaaaaaa!!!

The density of such a main force.

This is not simply the idea of ​​using powerful magic.

The power to occupy an entire space and change its nature.

The magician’s secret that Lennok is familiar with, but extremely dangerous and powerful.

Could it be that Grisha was also able to use witchcraft?

“Well, it would be faster to show it once than to explain it in words.”

simplicity and honesty!

For the first time, Grisha used a trigger to use magic.

He uses his little finger to pierce his temple, and blood begins to trickle down her forehead.

She murmured as she took the red fresh blood that flowed down her chin and sprayed it in front of her feet.

“Expanding magnetic field.”

image stamping.

PAAAAAAAAA!!!

Achromatic waves resonate strongly, eating up the surrounding space in an instant and changing its properties.

Just by entering the space of another wizard, a strong pressure weighed down on Lennok, making it difficult to breathe properly.

However, what catches Lennok’s eyes before the mighty force that oppresses his whole body is Grisha’s realm itself, which is painting a completely new landscape after encroaching on the entire cavity.

It changes.

Lush bushes grew beneath their feet, and countless trees rose around Grisha and Lennok.

The ceiling of the cavity, which had been tightly closed, had turned into a sky with heat rising in full swing.

The heat that scorched the tips of his skin and the sticky moisture that warmed his whole body instantly penetrated Lennok’s airways.

The sound of the wind that had not stopped from all sides of the tower died down, and the calm, windless area swept over.

A landscape Lenok had never experienced before on Earth.

The backcountry jungle stretched out right in front of me.

“… … .”

A miracle so absurd that the sober mind could never comprehend it.

But Lennok kept his mouth shut with a cold expression.

If I hadn’t known anything about the realm, I would have believed that Grisha had really transferred Lennok to another space.

But Lennok was acutely aware that this scenery she had created was an even greater miracle than that.

‘The act of embodying a landscape by putting images in the realm… … .’

I heard about it in a conversation with Aris on the way back from the conference.

A genius who had reached level 6 at the age of twenties, the very scenery that she had been struggling with in order to rise higher was now unfolding before Lennok’s eyes.

What this meant was very simple.

The highest ranked shaman who had reached level 7 was revealing his secret intentions against Lennok.

Grisha smiled confidently.

“It’s called Nammando Coast. Isn’t it cool?”
