Genius Magician Who Takes Medicine, Chapter 592
Spirit Growth Promoting Ritual (3)
“Assistant Professor Evan!!”
“I really thought I was going to die… … !!”
“I wouldn’t have died.”
Saying that, Lennok pushed the door open button on the instrument panel and quickly opened the train door.
Climbing on the train and glancing at the students scattered across the seats, Lennok quickly explained to Cassia how to operate the train’s instrument panel.
“If you press this button and pull the lever, automatic operation is possible with the speed fixed. If you use this button to hold the brake… … .”
“Now, wait a minute.”
Cassia cut off Lennok, holding her injured shoulder.
“Th-Tell me how to operate the train now… … ?”
“Assistant Professor Cassia can drive this train and escape out of the school.”
At the same time as Lennok said that, another train car appeared as it slowly rolled down the opposite rail.
Lennok smiled as he gestured back to point to the new train.
“Because I’m going to ride that and go deeper into the university.”
“… … .”
It was only then that Cassia realized how Lenok had intended to evacuate the students and deal with the mysterious palace at the same time, and Cassia opened her mouth wide.
“You are crazy. What does it mean to solve… … ?”
“Anyway, unless someone directly draws the attention of the mysterious palace, this train will not be able to escape from the school normally.”
Saying that, Lennok winked at Mila, who was out there fiddling with a shotgun.
“The two of us will hold on while attracting moderate attention, so Assistant Professor Cassia, please go outside and ask for help from the outside.”
“… … .”
Cassia, biting her lip, nodded with difficulty with a calm expression.
“all right. There’s no way things will be resolved if you uselessly insist that I’ll help you now.”
“I thought you would understand.”
“But promise me you’ll focus only on the things that take your time.”
Cassia shook her head with a determined expression.
“This is not Evan’s responsibility. Even if the dean suffers, you should put your own safety first. all right?”
“… … .”
“I would have said the same thing if the director or dean were standing here.”
“All right.”
Lennok nodded and got out of the car.
Cassia presses the button on the instrument panel with a blurry face, and the train starts moving slowly.
Relieved, the students who were standing in the train car stood up in amazement when they saw Lennok standing outside the window.
“Joe, assistant professor!! Where are you going!!”
“Let’s run away together!!”
“Hey, we have to stop the train… … !!”
“Dabi!!!”
“I have work to do, so I will follow slowly.”
Lennox smiled and waved.
“I’m fine, everyone run away first.”
Around such Lennok, the spider spirits who had been lying on the ground with their boats turned upside down began to rise one by one and approach Lennok.
Spider spirits who have lost their master run rampant all over the dark terminal station, approaching to covet living life.
It was obvious what Evan would look like to the students when he was left among the spiders after the train was moving away.
“Oh, no. If you stay here, surely… … !!”
“Please, come with me!!”
Students banging on the windows anxiously, showing reddened eyes.
Mila, who was piercing the jammed muzzle of the shotgun from the side, smiled at the students.
“You have good disciples. I know you’ll cry.”
“It just makes me feel ashamed when I meet them alive.”
“Oh, are you sure you can survive?”
“Rather than certainty… … .”
Lennok laughed. It was pointless to even elaborate on it.
“Well, everyone has their own circumstances.”
Mila nodded at Lennok, who was speechless, and turned her head as she reloaded her shotgun.
“I don’t know how the hell I got an exclusive security contract from our leader, but I’ll try my best first.”
Mila grinned and raised her magic power, pointing the shotgun at the approaching spiders.
Clap!!
“Let’s do our best so that we don’t die.”
“Ah, you don’t have to.”
“what?”
Lennok laughed and said as he grabbed Darby from the jump and hugged him.
“From now on, I plan to deal with it a little faster.”
[Partial Expansion of Spirit Hierarchy Common Magic]
Pajijijijik!!!
At that moment, a tremendous thunderbolt erupted from Darby’s body, and at the same time, three fox fires began to appear next to the spirit.
Surprising emotions spread on the faces of the students who watched the dazzling brilliance of lightning through the window of the train moving away.
“Tickling the stomach.”
Aaaaaaang!!
As if lighting up the lights of the dark station instead, the rotating fox fire chanted different lightning magics and turned all the spiders to ashes.
[Keeek!!]
[Khehe, eaek!!]
The form of a spider spirit that screams in agony and quickly turns into a handful of ashes.
Milla looked back at Lennok with a look of bewilderment.
“… … You mean you gave such a cute technical name to such a heinous magic?”
“Davi’s personal preference.”
Cassia shook her head at the sight of Lennok passing the blame on to Darby without blinking.
The three-pronged fox fire scattered brilliant electric lights between the spiders, and dozens of lightning bolts scattered and gathered, spraying a whirlwind of lightning into the underground terminal.
The shape of a little fox that does not stop at burning the spiders that rush at it, but actively burrows into and breaks through the spirits.
[Tot, tot, tot!!]
Every time I step on the slippery body of the spiders and jump with the fox fire spinning around Darby.
A piece of blue thunderbolt that rose from the spot where it jumped furiously penetrated the Spider Spirit’s body and exploded.
Beopbeopbeobung!!
The appearance of a spider spirit that grotesquely screams in all directions and is crushed and destroyed.
Lennok explained without missing a beat.
“They say it’s a digestive hop after overeating.”
“… … Okay, can you stop explaining?”
A beautiful fantasy of blue flowers blooming all over the underground terminal, with Dabi lightly sitting on the railroad leaving them behind.
The students who were watching the battle of the spirits in the train opened their mouths in a daze at the overwhelming fighting power.
Kugu Palace!!
In the meantime, Cassia must have gotten used to the train dashboard, and the train slowly starts moving toward the other side of the tracks.
[Keyek?]
At the sudden movement, the spiders, who had been concentrating on killing Darby and Lennok, turned their heads and opened their green eyes.
“omg… … !!”
“Hey, I’m looking this way.”
The students backed away, blushing at the blatant beast’s eyes filled with sticky flesh.
In an instant, the spider spirits stretched their webs under the train wheels, catching the train car and making it stand up.
Awesome!!
After spraying spider webs on all sides of the terminal pillar walls, the spiders glide over it and quickly surround the train car.
Could it be that trying to run away by moving the train was rather poisonous?
The moment when the undergraduate students, realizing that the battle would be inevitable, somehow raised their mana and tried to counter it with elemental magic.
Bang, bang!!
With the automatic pistol Lennok was holding in his hand, he shot and broke the webs holding the wheels of the train.
After breaking the cobwebs that got entangled between the wheels and stopped running, the train started moving again and started moving forward.
[Kkeeeh!!]
When the shooting of the spider’s web did not work, the shape of the greedy spiders wrapped around the train with their bodies and tried to catch and eat it somehow.
Seeing the spiders flashing their teeth and eyeballs outside the window, the students clenched their teeth and tried to prevent the window from breaking.
However, unable to withstand the grip of the spider spirit, the glass window shattered, and the bodily fluid melted even the shards of glass.
Chi profit!!
[Kihehehe!!]
Dozens of spider spirits that scream like laughter and get on the running train.
At the train terminal station, he doesn’t even glance at Lennok, who’s holding a gun, and focuses only on the students.
Lennok’s eyes sank as soon as he recognized the scene.
‘You have no intention of dealing with me. Are you thoroughly targeting the prey?’
The dozens of spider spirits that filled this station right now are far from the spirits summoned simply by signing a contract with a magician.
The only spirit contracted with the shaman of the Goddess Palace was a tank spider spirit that was huge enough to fill the railroad tracks.
The spider spirits that run rampant now are nothing more than by-products of the intention created by the tank spider that died after being hit by a train.
In terms of its essence, it can be said that it is a being similar to the fox fire that Darby newly created.
However, the spirit’s synesthetic body, which lost both the magician and the main body, completely relies on instinct, and is just a being that disappears while satisfying its desire.
That’s why they are ignoring Darby’s owner, Lennok, and targeting students who are on the relatively vulnerable train.
Taaang!!
Mila hurriedly asked, after striking the shotgun and blasting the spider spirit’s body with a shockwave.
“Isn’t that something we have to stop first?!”
“It will be fine.”
Lennok, who grabbed Mila by the shoulder as she was about to jump down the railroad tracks, glanced back and said,
“It bothered me, but I didn’t hate it anyway.”
“… … Who are you talking about?”
The answer to Mila’s question came quickly.
Between the corpses of spiders swarming in the terminal, a bright blue flash of lightning came out and ran obliquely along the wall.
Darby’s new model, which flashes a dazzling electric light while bouncing four feet, catches up with the speed of the train in an instant, changes direction as if bouncing, and enters the train in an instant.
Kwaaaang!!
Darby pierced through the roof of the train and landed proudly like a superhero.
The moment the eyes of the students, startled by the whirlpool of electricity that flashed from their bodies, focused on the fox spirit.
Darby and the three-pronged fox-fires spinning around him chanted the same magic at the same time.
Lightning system common magic
Resonance expansion triplet
[Ionic Bounce]
Wheein!!!
Three giant spheres of lightning floated in the air and rotated in place, condensing the lightning and scattering it in all directions.
The electricity that bounced dozens of times along the walls and floor of the train exquisitely evaded the students and exploded the spider spirit’s head and eyeballs.
Beep beep!!
On the spot, dozens of spider spirits clinging to the train evaporated and disappeared altogether.
“Sah, I’m alive.”
“Speed… … I’m back… … ”
The train, tied to a spider’s web and unable to speed, began to roll away from the terminal.
Only then did one of the students holding on to the broken door from the spider spirit’s attack, as if starting to realize the current situation, murmured.
“He saved us again… … .”
[…] … .]
Darby stared blankly at the students, then stood on all fours at the end of the train without saying a word.
If you get on the train that is going away like this, you will rather be separated from Lennok.
“… … Darby!”
As Darby was about to jump off and return to Lennok, someone carefully stroked the spirit’s tail from behind.
Students covered in dust from fierce battles and escapes were laughing at Darby.
“I’ll definitely see you in the classroom next time. Understand?”
[…] … joy.]
Instead of responding, Darby waggled his tail lightly and poked the students in the forehead.
The moment the students giggled at the tickling of their foreheads and backed away, Darby’s figure disappeared.
* * *
While waiting for Darby to return after leaving the train first, Lennok and Mila focused on clearing the cobwebs from the terminal.
Most of the spider spirit’s corpses had disappeared, but the spider’s web, which was a by-product of the will, remained.
“Evan, look at this. It’s gooey.”
Mila stretches out a spider web with one hand and smiles.
Lennok, who was holding a lighter and burning the cobwebs clinging to the train, shook his head.
“What are you doing if you’re not a kid?”
“Wouldn’t the kids rather like this situation? It’s fun.”
“I don’t think there is a child who would like human-sized spiders… … .”
Lennok replied, secretly checking the reverberation of magic power left in the spider’s web without Mila’s knowledge.
‘The remaining magic power is excessively activated… … .’
A tank spider that far exceeded the size of a normal spirit. Dozens of spider spirits popped out one after another as if they were giving birth to such a spider.
Although the entire train was crushed and dealt with quickly, isn’t it too powerful for a single shaman to command?
‘But it’s too weak to be a master who grew up eating wizards again… … . Haven’t you started the ritual properly yet?’
The fact that the shamans who invaded the Department of Elements caught and imprisoned the students was probably in preparation for processing them as offerings.
If the true growth-promoting ritual had begun and the spirits possessed by the shamans of the Mystic Shrine had begun to grow, there would be no way it would end like this.
The two soon managed to clear the cobwebs around the train and move the train without difficulty.
Clap!! Woooooo!!
“The instrument panel works fine. Fortunately, it doesn’t look like the cobwebs got mixed up into the engine room.”
“Good. So, are you going to kill the chief shaman right now?”
“What are you talking about?”
Looking at Mila, who naturally said let’s go face to face with the head of the mysterious palace, Lennok asked back.
“There’s no way an ordinary researcher like me could deal with such a high-ranking shaman from a nefarious criminal organization.”
“… … .”
In spite of Mila’s gaze, which looked somewhat fat, Lennok laid down the steel plate and worked hard to appeal his situation.
“Somehow, my spirit awakened and showed good results, but of course such dangerous criminals should be entrusted to the city government’s security organization.”
“I’m just an ordinary researcher… … well, i get it My job was to protect my younger brother, the teacher.”
Mila nodded with a sour expression and asked as if she remembered something.
“No, if that’s the case, why don’t you just run away with the students instead of staying here?”
“Oh, that’s impossible again.”
Lennok shook his head.
“If someone doesn’t draw attention from this side, there’s no way the shaman from the Kaising Palace will let the students escape.”
“… … .”
“Well, it’s clear that this is the least reasonable choice. Other students haven’t learned how to protect themselves yet.”
Leaving Mila silent, Lennok said, catching Darby who ran up the wall of the station.
“Once things are sorted out, I think we should propose an agenda to move the battle magic proficiency course curriculum down to the second year… … . Of course, if the administration staff are still alive.”
Crucially, this will allow you to moderately offload the load without sacrificing other students.
No matter how good Lennok played as an elemental magician, fighting and winning against shamans accompanied by dozens of students was a lot of work.
Even if they fight and win in the process, it is unavoidable that the eyes of doubt are drawn to the abilities of Lennok or Darby.
Rather, it would be desirable to evacuate the students safely, and in the process, Lennok and Mila fall apart and deal with the shamans of the Goddess Palace.
“… … OK, I see what our teacher thinks. But attracting attention is not going to be something you do.”
Milla asked, plunging into the couch behind Lennox.
“If it’s not to the extent of attacking to kill the head of the Ghost Shrine, it’ll be difficult to keep the other shamans on our side as well.”
“As I said, you don’t have to deal directly with the head of the Ghost Shrine. I’m not even sure I can do that.”
Saying that, Lennok operated the instrument panel and started moving the train slowly.
The train, which starts to move quickly off the tracks, speeds out of the station and speeds up.
Kagagak!!
With the cool noise of train wheels scraping between the tracks, the surrounding scenery changes from points to lines.
Lennok, who moved the lock on the instrument panel to set the speed of the train, turned to Mila and nodded.
“So we’ll go find the dean from now on.”
“… … what?”
Seeing Mila’s dazed expression, Lennok got up and started rummaging through the shelves inside the cab.
“At the time the dean’s spirit requested help, it was clear he was inside the school. Unless special abilities or conditions are met, spirits and magicians cannot be far apart.”
Lennok, who quickly found daily necessities including disposable coffee pots, cups, and refreshments, replied belatedly to Mila’s words.
“Then, even though the dean himself is inside the school, he is in such a difficult situation that he cannot help in any way. Doesn’t the answer come out if you think about it by linking this with the shamans of the Mystic Shrine?”
It was only then that Mila’s expression changed slightly as she understood the meaning of Lennok’s words.
“The shamans of the Kaijin Palace are holding Dean Garteanon hostage?”
“To be precise, we plan to use it as a top-notch offering for the Spirit Growth Promotion Ceremony.”
said Lennok, quickly brewing two cups of coffee and handing them to Mila.
“Didn’t I say that we would start with a low-ranking mage and gradually increase the purity of the ritual?”
“… … ”
“That means, in other words, that a high-ranking mage is also needed to properly complete the ritual.”
“The Dean Garteanon is being held hostage to be a ceremonial offering… … Certainly, otherwise, I cannot explain the current situation.”
After Mila said that, she tilted her head.
“But the dean himself is a 7th-level Aspect Wizard, and I know that he is a veteran who has participated in the Great War, so he was taken hostage?”
“Even the dean himself must have never intended to be captured.”
Lennok muttered as he sipped his coffee.
“I wonder if he was subdued unintentionally while taking students and school officials hostage.”
If it was the dean he knew, there was no way he would have become a hostage even if he was aware of the existence of the shamans.
However, it is not difficult to understand if it was forced to be an offering due to various factors that interfered with the battle process.
In the process, Lennok sensed that the dean had sent a spirit to ask for help, and was thinking of going to rescue him.
“As Mila said, Dean Cyolus is an excellent 7th-level Aspect Magician, and a superman with a lot of experience.”
Looking at Mila’s face, which hadn’t caught on yet, Lennok shrugged.
“So, if we succeed in rescuing the dean, wouldn’t we have to worry about who will deal with the head of the Kaising Palace?”
“Right… … I understand.”
Mila’s expression was tinged with admiration when she understood why Lennok wasn’t paying much attention to the head of the mysterious palace.
“We’re looking for the dean, and the head of the mysterious palace entrusts the opponent to that old man. Are you a mercenary genius?”
From the beginning, Lennok had no intention of solving the case alone.
If you deal with the mysterious palace alone as Evan Bylon, you will only draw attention to the bad side.
We need someone to find a clue to solve the problem, and take responsibility instead of Lennok to come to the fore and wrap things up.
Lennok knew early on that the only person who could do it was the dean, Siolus Garteanon.
“I think I have a rough idea of where the dean will be.”
Lenok, who operated the train’s instrument panel to speed up, opened the map.
“Now I think I can see where to end this situation.”
