A huge palace floating on the lake.
The man with the magnificent scenery in front of him turned to Lennok and smiled.
“I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to do everything with the promise that I’ll let you meet Jindun first.”
“… … .”
“Because if you meet Zaegis and try to sabotage my cause, things will be a nuisance.”
Was Lennok wary of warning Jindun about losing his body?
The corners of the man’s lips parted as he glanced back.
“If we hadn’t been unnecessarily quick-witted, we would have been able to achieve what we both wanted…” … . Being smart isn’t always a good thing, is it?”
From the moment Lennok saw through the man’s hidden true intentions, the two men’s cooperation went beyond water.
“This is my advice as a senior in life, so listen carefully and deal with it wisely in the future. Then I will go first.”
The man who greeted the cradle dozens of meters ahead of Lennok leisurely declared victory.
Zaun consumes one of the powerful emotions he originally possessed to force him to move several tens of meters. At the same time, the door to the cradle was opened, so Lennok would no longer get caught.
Block the attack from behind with the power of the area that is still remaining, and go inside the cradle.
The moment the man thought so turned around and was about to activate the jewelery ceremony.
“I don’t know what you are talking about.”
Aaaaaaa!!
With Lennok’s words, a huge wave rose right behind the man.
The wave he just raised up with water current-type magic to attack the man.
It had changed the direction of the current, and was moving forward with Lennok’s body still on it.
“I never expected you to keep your promise.”
“… … !!”
Seeing Lennok riding the wave ahead, the man who completely changed his complexion used the jewel pillar to activate the spell.
His body floated in the air and began to fly at high speed.
Wedge liquid!!
If you don’t borrow the help of an artifact, it’s a flying technique that has near-diabolical efficiency.
However, the stronger the catalyst used for the spell, the higher the efficiency and the stronger the power.
Zaun is a one-time technique used to cut away human emotions.
The man casually consumed and accelerated the power of a realm full of risks that he would never have used if it were his own body.
Although he considered Zaun a partner, he was not a compassionate mage enough to spare his own ends.
Doo doo doo!!!
A new type of two people running on low, splashing water. One side is in the air, and the other side is riding a self-generated wave and rolling back and forth in a mess.
The situation where there is not much left in each other’s magic power and physical strength. The bodies of the two people who narrowly determined superiority and inferiority passed through the intangible barrier at the same time,
They fell simultaneously inside the cradle’s spacious palace.
The two mages who fell in the middle of the vast hall groaned in agony as if they had promised.
thud!!
“Cheukhak!!”
“Ugh… … !!”
The man who couldn’t stop coughing shivered all over his body with a pale complexion.
“Um… … !! Also, the physical condition… … !!”
It is said that he borrowed Zaun’s body, but this body itself was already defeated in the battle with Lennok and was exposed to the aftermath.
Not only did he consume most of his mana, but his muscles were damaged as mana that did not belong to him permeated throughout his body during Lennok’s torture.
In addition, originally, the man himself took control of Zaun’s body, and the power of the grudge escaped from the vicinity of the heart, making blood circulation difficult.
Lennok’s eyes flashed as he watched the man wriggling collapsed beside him.
“I see… … !!”
The reason why the man pretended to be relaxed all the time, concentrating on defense instead of repelling Lennok’s attack.
This is because Zaun’s body itself was driven to the brink of destruction in the first place, and it was deteriorating to the point where he could not fight.
Lennok also has the confidence to be second to none when it comes to showing the bottom in terms of stamina and durability, but in this situation, it’s not like there are no odds.
Ajak!
With trembling hands, he took out a painkiller from his pocket and chewed it.
At the same time, take out an ampoule for physical recovery and inject it into the carotid artery.
It is an injection method that can lead to serious bleeding if done wrong, but the effect was excellent.
Lennok, who had regained some energy, succeeded in standing up first.
“Whoa… … .!!”
Seeing the man who was still squirming on his knees, Lennok sighed and pulled himself together.
“It was close, but I guess I’ll go first. Wait quietly there until you meet Jindun… … lee… … go… … .”
As he walked forward, his head was lifted, and Lennox’s words were cut short and stopped suddenly.
It was because Lennok’s head, which had lifted his eyes along the stairs in front of him, bent straight vertically without stopping.
“… … .”
Stairs spread so far and wide that the end could not be seen.
On both sides of the stairs, thousands of thick pipes tightly cover the walls and ceiling of the palace.
Lennok, who belatedly realized that the number of steps alone would exceed thousands, quietly cursed.
“Damn it… … .”
After all, Evelyn, not Lennok, should have been here.
It was not enough to be thankful for her consideration, but it was that Lennok, not the Ascendant, might die first climbing these stairs.
* * *
“Heh, heh… … !!”
“Big, ugh… … !!”
Beads of hot sweat drip endlessly down the stairs.
Unable to overcome the weight, the clothes she took off and threw are scattered at the bottom of the stairs several hundred meters.
“Ughhh… … !!”
“… … It looks very difficult.”
Lennok, who was almost crawling ahead of the stairs with a dazed expression, glanced back.
No matter how much stamina he had consumed, his eyes widened and his cheeks became thinner.
At the bottom of the stairs slightly behind Lennok, a man who was crawling on all fours laughed weakly.
“Hehe, do you mean that? … ?”
“… … .”
“thing… … If there are any leftover medicines… … Why don’t you throw some more?”
The man looked up at Lennok with a tired expression and licked his lips.
“That ampoule, quite tasty… … It was fine.”
“turn off… … lose… … .”
The reason why the man who couldn’t even move properly was following Lennok up the stairs was simple.
The man picked up the ampoule bottle that Lennok had thrown away, broke it open, and ate the contents inside.
Perhaps licking the leftovers on the wall to cheer up a little, the man’s bad manners as he began to climb the stairs was such that even Lennok was admiring.
“People in the past were like that… … Have you been messing around?”
“recently… … To the young ones, it’s not comparable, but… … ! Whoa… … !!”
“Heh… … .”
I can’t stand it because it’s ridiculous to see them arguing as they crawl up the stairs.
They are spitting sharp words at each other, but instead of using their hands, they focus on climbing the stairs.
Unlike outside the cradle, both of them had an intuition that magic could no longer be restored inside this huge palace.
The mana flowing in this space was sucked in between the pipes on both sides of the stairs and the ceiling, before it settled in their bodies.
The intake of the pipe didn’t stop there, and worked greedily as if to scrape up the two people’s exhausted mana.
Even with Lennok’s magic manipulation ability, all he had to do was to hold out so that he wouldn’t be deprived of the Kijo magic that maintains his body.
It was only natural that a man of Zaun’s body could not last long.
“Ugh… … !!”
Realizing that his legs were trembling as he prostrated himself on the stairs, Lenok took out a new ampoule from his bosom and held it up.
click!!
“Oh oh!!”
The man watching the scene from below let out a heated cheer.
With the ampoule slung over his shoulder, Lennok looked down at the man with cold eyes.
“I don’t know why you are happy. I won’t.”
“But that bottle, I’m going to throw it away… … Isn’t it?”
The man answered with a flick of his tongue.
“This body, I don’t have much magic talent, but the medicinal effect is pretty good. It is enough to leave only the residue.”
“… … .”
It’s such a nasty remark that it’s hard to believe that he was a high-ranking black magician hundreds of years ago.
But Lennok was not without thoughts either.
Instead of throwing the used ampoule bottle under his feet, he threw it down there.
“ah… … !!”
The man who looked at the ampoule rolling down the stairs with a devastated expression lowered his head.
No matter how urgent the effect is, going down the stairs to pick up an ampoule is a waste.
For no reason, when Lennok was taking medicine, he put up an easy line so that the man next to him would not benefit from it.
Lennok looked at the man with satisfaction, then turned around and started climbing the stairwell.
Because his stamina and mana were close to the bottom, he climbed the stairs in such an ugly manner, but there was no time to rest for a long time.
‘Since Yoram appeared, Maiya must have noticed the abnormality.’
Neither Lennok nor the man had yet forgotten the existence of a third competitor who had entered the cradle with them.
‘Before that woman finds this place and reaches the stairs, I have to wake up Jindun first.’
I don’t know how much energy Maya has left, but compared to Lennok and Zaun, who were fighting before the cradle, it must be relatively intact.
In the end, I couldn’t let her benefit first.
‘By the way, the environment is quite strange for a place where ascenders live.’
Lennok panted and crawled up the stairs, trying to capture the scenery around him.
The appearance of unknown pipes tightly packed on both sides of the vast cradle.
Is it for moving something, or is it a device for listening to music from a distance?
Could it be that the pipe itself is used to generate a note?
Majestic magic whirling overhead, elegant melodies, and a stairway that is not far from the end.
You no longer have to tilt your head back as far as you can, and you start to see the end of the stairs.
Realizing that he still couldn’t see Maya down there, Lennok gritted his teeth and started running.
“Ugh… … !!”
Gastric juice leaks out of my mouth due to the side effects of the drug effect taken in succession and the side effects of addiction, exhausted stamina and an empty stomach that has reached its limit, but that is not the important thing.
‘Finally… … !!’
Right after he first received a call from Lapis and joined the convocation order, he reached the deepest part of the labyrinth between the northern continent, between the canyons and the snowfields, and Lennok saw the fruit of that.
Finally, and only now, can we meet with the Ascendant.
What should I ask first? What should I answer first?
Even though I keep thinking about this moment, I still feel like my head is about to explode with worry.
Even though I thought it was a problem for which there was no answer, I continued to worry about it unstoppably.
What kind of ending awaits the transcendent who reached the answer before Lennok and higher than Lennok in this world with a fixed end?
Didn’t you think only of that, wait for that and burn everything to reach this point?
Percussion!!
Lennok thought so and leaped up the stairs with all his might.
I stopped on the spot when I checked the sight in front of me.
“… … .”
“Heh, heh… … !!”
Right after that, the man who caught up with Lennok with a face that seemed to be out of breath at any moment collapsed at Lennok’s feet.
“Ah, I finally picked it up and ate it… … I couldn’t stand it… … .”
The man who went down the ampoule bottle that Lennok threw, drank the medicine, and climbed up with the effect of the medicine, raised his head with difficulty.
“Zygis… … !! I, Ermong, you… … .”
The scenery on the stairs made the man gasping for breath and trying to call out Jindun’s name.
the center of the cradle.
A man was quietly closing his eyes on a small chair in the middle of a vast common above thousands of stairs.
“… … .”
Small wrinkles around the eyes. Breathing so faintly that you can hardly feel it.
The two of them looked like they were sleeping peacefully, as if they were not interested in what they were doing.
But what left Lennok and the man speechless wasn’t the Ascendant’s far more shabby appearance than he thought.
Thousands of pipes lined up tightly behind the small chair he was sitting on.
It was because all the pipes that filled the walls and ceiling of this palace were jammed into Jindun’s back and waist.
And right in front of the old man’s chair with his head down and his eyes closed.
Intricate skill sets densely carved under the floor. Fresh blood flowing down the elbow.
“It’s too late.”
Maiya smiled coldly as she placed her bloody hands on the floor.
