Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 646
bailiff (3)
The architect of the Ascension Gate, Attermyer.
He is the one who designed the door, the supreme project that risked all possibilities of the Machine City Machina.
A researcher whose name was erased from the history of Machina by disappearing with the failure of the plan.
Maya was saying that the very name of Atermire belonged to Dr. Bondi.
‘… … Right.’
Although he thought it was surprising, Lennok quickly accepted the fact without being too shaken.
Come to think of it, it must have been because there was quite a bit of evidence that the doctor was Atermeyer or something equivalent to him.
In Pandaemonium, Maya and the doctor seemed to know each other from before.
The attitude of the doctor who showed interest in researching and researching the information of the old world.
And even the fact that the new statues he had created existed as replicas all over the machine city of Makina.
It is clear that the doctor once conducted research on the old world in this machine city.
And considering the competence and genius displayed by the doctor in Pandaemonium, it is not strange at all even if he was directly involved in the design of the Ascension Gate beyond his research position.
But the reason Lennok didn’t think that Dr. Attermyer would be, even knowing that.
That’s probably because he thought that the doctor Lennok had judged was not someone who could focus on a super-large project.
Although it moves according to the leader’s words, the doctor’s plans and methods are quite heterogeneous and arbitrary even within Pandaemonium.
Lennok did not think that such a person had once been in charge of the design part of the Ascension Gate project as a member of Machine City.
[That’s not the regret I left behind, Mai. I can’t agree with that.]
With a cold voice, the doctor laughed beyond the blood gates Maiya had made.
[All I did was design the Ascension Gate theory into a feasible design. You must have met the price by placing a condition on Jura’s balance?]
“… … .”
[I didn’t think that the failure of the plan would lead to the void of the old world, but it’s not my regret that I didn’t stop at the point where I couldn’t reach it.]
The doctor’s answer mixed with faint cynicism.
[The idea of bringing meaning out of silence was wrong. Everyone knew that this would happen. Now, what’s the point of fixing it?]
Tuck, Tuck… … .
The doctor murmured along with the languid sound of tapping something.
[It’s just repeating the hard work that won’t end once, Mai… … It’s far from the fundamental answer you’re looking for.]
Even knowing how strongly Maya is obsessed with the failure of the Gate of Ascension, she doesn’t hesitate to laugh at it head-on.
Far from feeling responsible or burdened by the failure of the inquiry, he seemed to think that it was a natural result.
Rather, if you listen to the doctor’s words, it seems that Maiya is trying to dissuade him from interfering in Makina’s affairs at this point.
Lennok, who had been silently listening to the conversation behind the scenes, lit up his eyes.
‘I participated in the Ascension Gate plan through some kind of deal, but I was not interested in the result?’
But even so, the fact that the doctor designed the door itself did not disappear.
The doctor seemed to think that his contribution to the plan was insignificant, but Lennok, on the contrary, realized the extent of his competence in his answer.
What does it mean to design the Ascension Gate theory into a feasible design?
A genius that quantifies imagery, thoughts, and possibilities that do not exist in form, and brings them down to the realm of calculation and research.
What the doctor said was the fruit of a talent that reached the pinnacle of theorizing, which even Lennok could not be sure of.
It is no coincidence that he is remembered as the architect of the Ascension Gate even at this point when the name Atermeyer has been completely forgotten in the city.
It was clear that the doctor’s ability played a key role in the process of designing the plan in detail.
The words of the doctor who blatantly points out the failure of the Ascension Gate and ridicules it.
However, instead of being enraged by the doctor’s words, Maya silently watched the blood dripping from her arm.
The dripping blood rises and turns into the shape of a door, connecting the doctor and the doctor, but that doesn’t last long either.
At this point, when it was revealed that the doctor himself had no intention of intervening, the minimum result should be left.
What had to be said was decided.
“Hermes is one of the very few ascendants who has ever been with a god-slayer.”
[God Slayer?]
“Even if it’s not to settle this situation, it’s necessary to observe the cause and effect. Am I wrong?”
[…] … .]
The silent doctor laughed.
[…] … Right. Was anyone listening? It would have been easier for both of us if we had spoken sooner.]
“… … .”
Maya didn’t answer further, but Lennok immediately sensed what the two of them were talking about.
Hermes is one of the very few Old World beings related to the leader.
That’s why Maiya told the doctor the need to watch the progress of the Ascension Gate, even if it wasn’t to fix it.
However, turning the leader’s existence into a god slayer was just a simple message to keep Lennok from knowing the leader’s identity.
In an instant, the doctor read the intention of the words and noticed Lennok’s existence implicitly.
[good night. If that’s the reason, I can’t help it.]
The change of attitude that was cool enough to make the attitude of holding back until just now awkward.
Maya also nodded as if expecting the doctor’s reaction.
“It doesn’t take long to keep in touch. If you have something to say about the door, listen quickly.”
[Tell me… … Ah, that’s right.]
The doctor seemed to think for a while, then smiled as if he realized something.
[Finally, the database has some information about the Old World Ascendant. I will explain about Hermes.]
“… … You say there is still information about Hermes?”
[Hermes Orochnier. Prime Minister of the Ruined Kingdom, Ghost of Steel, Commander of Platinum. An ascendant who studied the boundary between material and non-material and obtained qualifications by transcending the hierarchy based on the mass magic formula.]
Without waiting for an answer, the doctor spoke quickly in an even tone.
[I heard that he is the commander of a thousand and one, and has the same strength as an army. It seems that he was an excellent war agent to the extent that his major in the history of the old world would exist in decades.]
“… … .”
[A cold and mechanical personality. Five countries destroyed. A ruined civilization. He was once revered as a god, but he seemed to have no interest in having followers.]
Hearing that, Lennok wondered if there was a Hermes-like presence in WORLD 2.0, but there was no boss or character that came to mind.
Was he the transcendental person who existed after he stopped playing World 2.0?
Upon hearing that, Maya also fell silent with a complicated expression, as if lost in thought.
The doctor neatly ignored the reaction of the two and muttered as if looking into an old book.
[I have obtained the qualification to challenge the ascension, but I have never officially challenged the ascension. But none of the Old World Ascendants have tried… … .]
The words of the doctor who had been reading all the way to that point stopped.
“Doctor, what’s going on?”
[Whoops… … I think I know why Hermes’ ego existed beyond the door. He had no intention of transcending the world from the beginning.]
The doctor gave a low laugh and replied.
[I know roughly what to do. There is an arrangement I left behind near Machine City. I’ll send you the coordinates, so you can take care of the rest.]
“good.”
Maya responded coldly, rubbing her forearm slowly.
“I’ll listen to the rest after everything is done.”
[as you please. Just don’t get too involved in the void of the old world. You know, but-]
The doctor, who paused for a moment, whispered over the slowly closing blood gate.
[Because we are already with the most dangerous possibility in that old world.]
For an instant, Maya’s lips twitched faintly. It’s like it’s awkward to call him that.
“It’s a possibility… … .”
[It is not our job to judge the value of the Old World. don’t forget.]
The doctor’s voice, muttering in a strange tone, faded, and the sound of footsteps receded.
The sound of small footsteps, as if they had turned their backs on the other side of the door and walked out.
[Everything under absolute standards only exists in the realm of calculation. rest of it… … .]
Beyond the scattered signs, only the doctor’s message resounded quietly.
Maiya listened to that, and slowly rubbed her forearm to stop the bleeding and reaped the blood magic.
Turning around with an expressionless face, she nodded lightly at Lennok.
“I got the coordinates. Just move.”
But instead of answering that, Lennok looked at her blankly and said,
“I know you want to stop Hermes. You think this is one of the predestined failures.”
“… … .”
“Then why do you need my help instead of coming forward yourself?”
“With the failure of the Ascension Gate… … .”
After saying that, Maiya slightly twisted the corners of her mouth.
As if just mentioning that fact is unbearable.
After a moment of silence, she slowly opened her mouth.
“I put a covenant on the balance and gave up all authority. I am forbidden from interfering with the central system, including Machine City Ex Machina.”
“balance?”
“The balance of Jura. It is a kind of digitized contract created by reinterpreting Gias in the central city of Arsnova.”
Maya explained as if it was not a big deal.
“Because the contract is carried out through the medium of the corrupted status, only high-ranking superhumans are acting as a prohibition that allows them to pay the price.”
“Due to the ban, you want to refrain from intervening as much as possible, you mean?”
“It’s not me who suffers from the backlash of the contract.”
Maya’s eyes narrowed coldly as she stared at Lennok with her arms crossed.
“It is the most precious and obsessed value itself that the contractor put on the balance.”
“… … .”
What she values most is the comfort of the Machine City, or something equivalent to it.
She was saying that the machine city itself could be destroyed if the ban was violated and excessive hands were used.
“If I went out to deal with Hermes myself, I might end up helping him. I want to avoid that much.”
As an outcast, all rights to intervene in the system have been deprived, so even access is not allowed.
Nevertheless, Maya secretly returns to the city and tries to stop Hermes from overturning the entire city.
That would be proof that even after being abandoned by this city, Maiya was still brooding over and constantly recalling Makina’s failures.
“The existence of Hermes is one of the most fatal and dangerous variables among the various variables we assumed when preparing the plan.”
Maya said after quickly stopping the bleeding and clearing up the traces.
“A mind consumed by the ego of a qualified Ascendant is no longer human. Depending on the encroached memories, it just becomes a moving part to summon the real self.”
“… … .”
“Before I was exiled, I wanted to be prepared for the risks involved, but… … .”
Perhaps he didn’t say it in hopes of Lennok’s understanding.
Her words were of the kind that could never be understood without some knowledge of Maya’s history and circumstances.
But that’s why Lennok understood why Maiya had briefly returned to Machina at this point.
She did not rectify the failure of the Ascension Gate or find a way to fundamentally solve it.
However, he thought that something like this might happen someday, so he returned to Makina to take responsibility for his failure.
Faced outside the city, she was an outlaw who committed sacrifices, slaughter, destruction and downfall.
Returning to Makina, she was still a responsible guardian and enforcer for the city.
