Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Chapter 748

Flyby(16)

Lennok then energized the ring again, summoning the whitish ghost as before.

As if the memory of the explosion once remained, this time the figure of a ghost standing in front of Lennok calmly.

Sabrina tilted her head in embarrassment.

“But if you stay like this, you won’t be able to figure out anything. There’s nothing special about it… … .”

“I was going to talk about that part earlier, but I stopped.”

Hireah glanced at Lennok and said.

“Considering the meaning of the mirror, isn’t it a bit like that ghost, Victor?”

“… … this?”

A whitish spiritual body with no features or appearance. Did he even look into the other side of the ghost with his double-faced talent?

However, Hyrea opened her mouth again before the words came out.

“No, it’s not about that nature or presence. I mean the physique.”

Hireah glanced back at Lennok and said.

“At first, I thought they were at the same eye level, but looking at them all the time, it seems that their physiques and heights are roughly the same.”

“… … .”

Sabrina squinted her eyes at Lennok and tilted her head.

“Apart from the height, I have no idea about the physique because of the robe.”

“It’s just that I can guess it through my usual movements and gait, so I’m not sure either.”

When Hyrea spoke as if she was not confident, Sabrina stared blankly at Lennok.

“… … .”

“Victor, would you like to take off your robe?”

“Don’t be funny.”

Lennok cut off Sabrina’s nonsense in one fell swoop, and looked away.

Certainly, Lennock thought that there was nothing wrong with what he said about height and physique.

I didn’t consider it because it was an overly simplistic approach, but if I had to capture something characteristic of this ghost, wouldn’t it be that way.

If this ghost imitated Lennok’s physique, what would be the reason?

And what is the reason for not imitating any other characteristics and only roughly copying the appearance?

Thinking that far, Lennok realized the correct answer and immediately took off the ring and threw it at Sabrina.

“Sabrina. Try using the ring.”

“uh? uh?”

“It seems that the power of the ring is not being properly expressed because of my personal history.”

said Lennok.

“Other people may be different. I’ll have to experiment.”

“Ugh, that’s something very embarrassing… … Rather, shouldn’t we hear what that personal history is?!”

“Victor, if the power of the ring is on your side, it can be attributed to another wearer. Are you okay?”

Despite Hyrea’s words, Lennok nodded obediently.

“Then there is a way.”

“… … .”

A strangely ominous sounding answer.

“… … I really don’t know. It’s not my fault!”

The moment Sabrina put the ring on her finger with a timid expression. As the jewels glowed, the shape of a ghost emerged.

Faaaa!!

However, the ghost that appeared in front of me was not the whitish form without any features like before.

Same height and build as Sabrina wearing the ring. She resembles a human figure enough to make one question whether she is herself.

However, its appearance and atmosphere were so different from the spirit magician standing in front of him.

[…] … .]

Another picture of her looking at Sabrina silently, with grim eyes that had lost all hope.

Bloody wounds all over the body, shabby clothes and heavy shackles tied to the limbs.

The moment I finally checked the [death row inmate] nameplate hanging around my neck.

“… … !!”

Sabrina jerked the ring off my hand.

Ting!!

Immediately after the jewel ring fell to the floor and rolled, Lenok lightly grabbed it with his magician and retrieved it.

“… … .”

The figure of Sabrina who is silent with her mouth closed.

The back of her hand, which was clenched into a fist, had turned so white that no veins could be seen.

“Oh really… … .”

Sabrina spat out a harsh curse, then let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

Having barely regained her composure, she glanced back at Lennok and said.

“It is the ghost of the guide. Seeing that the name is very vicious, it must be certain.”

“It wasn’t something that simply takes out a ghost and shows it in front of the user.”

Only then did Lennok, realizing the power of the ring, peering into it carefully.

“Is it an object that projects memories of oneself in the past in the form of a ghost?”

Why Sabrina reacted like that, Lennok understood as soon as he heard those words.

Like a prisoner or slave, he was dragged with his entire body restrained. Even the sign saying death row inmate and the eyes that lost all hope.

It is the unpleasantness of forcibly bringing her most painful memories before her eyes.

What does it mean that the ghost of the guide changes into a past appearance that the wearer does not want to remember?

That contradictory and vicious ability is a sign of ominousness befitting the stature of Mangwi Night Trip.

Through him, Sabrina confirmed the fact that this ring was the remains of the guide itself.

“Hairea. Would you like to try that too?”

“… … well.”

Hireah said with a stiff expression.

“I don’t really want to see what I looked like when I was crazy.”

“… … .”

All members of Pandemonium are like that, but there are a lot of people with unusual pasts.

Lennok put the ring on instead of asking further, and the same featureless ghost appeared.

“But it is strange. According to the power of the ring, Victor, your past… … .”

Sabrina, who was wheezing and holding her breath, glanced back to Lennok.

Highrea also stared at Lennok with interest.

“… … .”

It’s no wonder that others have different thoughts when they see Lennok’s ghost.

Is there no past that I do not want to remember, or is the past itself non-existent?

Or is it that the power of the guide is not allowed to look into the inside itself in the first place?

If so, surely it is because something overwhelming and unapproachable by any rule runs through his blood.

It was probably no coincidence that the words about the ascendant whom Agneta flung off and fled came to mind one after another.

“I would have said you didn’t need to know.”

Thinking that it wouldn’t be strange if useless rumors spread like this, Lennok cut off his words.

At the point where I couldn’t explain Lennok’s talent or ability to resist, adding something like this would only serve as an excuse.

Sabrina also clicked her tongue as if she hadn’t expected it and turned around.

“Well, okay. Anyway, is this enough? To be honest, this has helped me enough to help.”

“… … .”

Lennok also knew that Sabrina directly became the test subject for the ring, so he didn’t bother to refute it.

While Sabrina retrieved the ship’s box, Hyrea began cleaning up the traces left in the hangar.

“Can you keep the ship without Agneta?”

“After the box is opened, its function disappears. It’s okay because it works only after putting things back in and locking it.”

“Sabrina.”

Hireah called her over with a serious expression.

“be careful. You’ll know even if I don’t tell you, but Jinwa is already… … .”

“It’s not something I can do.”

Sabrina smiled bitterly.

“Still, with Victor helping me, I completed the minimum precautions. I’ll have to get through this somehow.”

“… … .”

At this point, when Jinwa’s fall is near, the blow to be dealt to Sabrina, who is also a counsorcerer.

Hirea must have sensed that to some extent.

But even though Lennok knew that, he didn’t bother to offer words of comfort or concern to Sabrina.

As she said, it was something no one could do.

The fall of the great Ascendant and everything that happens under the room is like an unavoidable natural disaster to mortals.

Only those who have made the same resolution as the Ascendants can avoid or endure the same fateful disaster.

Hireah, who had organized the surroundings, left first, and Sabrina looked away while fiddling with the box with a complicated expression.

“I’m going back to the delegation and getting ready to leave. What are you going to do?”

“I plan to further investigate the ring’s abilities.”

Lennok replied.

“Since it’s an item you’ve acquired, you should reserve its value until you judge its usefulness.”

“… … okay. I don’t know what your past was like, but if you’re really, really, really close to ‘that side’ then I don’t have to worry.”

Saying that, Sabrina quietly turned her back.

“Well, we’re not here to ask each other’s regards… … There may be no next one. It’s me, not you.”

“… … .”

Sabrina came out of the hangar with her back to the unanswering Lennok, and raised her gaze.

“I still have to believe it. Because the captain said he would. That’s why I joined Pandaemonium.”

Sabrina’s monologue feels vaguely somewhere.

Lennok inadvertently questioned that.

“Do you believe that the leader will save this world?”

“hmm… … no.”

Sabrina laughed.

“I’m not familiar with the leader either, but I’m not the kind of person who will rush to accept someone’s salvation in the first place.”

“… … .”

“A person like that wouldn’t be able to bestow salvation on others so easily, wouldn’t he?”

She said as she gazed at the distant horizon in the undeveloped district.

“But if you’re the leader, you’re probably looking for something more important than that. I just believe in it.”

“… … Right.”

“Why do you think that is so absurd? Am I too optimistic?”

“no.”

Lennok laughed.

“I was just a little surprised that he seemed to understand him better than I thought.”

“… … .”

Could it be that he didn’t expect to hear such an answer from Victor?

With Sabrina looking back at him in slight surprise, Lennok walked ahead of her.

“Still, I can understand why this grain-like organization is still maintained. There must be value in hope that exists that way… … .”

“… … Victor?”

The moment I met the leader directly was only in the final moments of the labyrinth of Hanghasa.

But Lennok seemed to understand a little bit what the captain was thinking, what he hoped for, and how he was plotting all these plans.

Was it because Lennok returned from seeing his memories of the leader over the Ascension Gate, or-

“… … .”

Did he, too, start by enduring each day urgently, as if being pushed and chased at first?

I wonder if they were there, thinking the same way as Lennok, and having the same mindset as Lennok.

But instead of thinking about it for a long time, Lennok shook his head and raised his magic.

Either way, what needs to be done doesn’t change. The answer that Lennok ponders does not change either.

Fear surpasses curiosity. Desperation that suppresses fear.

Resolving the complicated mix of emotions within him, Lennok used his blink to disappear from Sabrina’s presence.

outskirts of undeveloped areas. Out of her Sabrina’s gaze, she looks down at her wordlessly.

It was only after seeing the linguistic sorcerer, who had been looking around, smiling bitterly as he returned to Balkan, that Lennok turned his steps.

[Puha.]

Only then did Darby stick her head out from Lennok’s arms as if she was going to live for a while.

[Whoah whoah.]

“Okay, breathe.”

Strangely, the brain spirit, which was gradually becoming more like a human, now felt more comfortable breathing outside than in Lennok’s arms.

Darby, who had been slashing with her snout pouting, asked Lennok as if she had been waiting.

[Whoa… … So, what is the way to use the ability of the ring?]

“Did you come out right away because you were curious?”

Lennok smiled and touched the ring.

“It’s nothing. It’s just that if I adjust my resistance ability, I think I can use the ability of the ring in a pretty fun way.”

[A fun way?]

“You said you’d change into your past self that you don’t want to remember the most.”

As Lennok said, he began to slightly adjust his resistance to the ring.

“But what if we left only one image of the past that could change?”

Targeted resistance is a talent that has existed since the moment Lennok woke up in this world, but it is possible to control its level autonomously.

It was impossible before, but after transcending the hierarchy and reaching level 8, he was able to adjust his talent to some extent.

Although it was not explained in front of Sabrina and Hyrea, it was not that there was no way to use the ring’s ability against Lennok himself.

“If only certain memories are left, limiting the options that the guide’s ghost can change… … .”

The moment when he fiddled with the ring of the guide, adjusted the resistance, and split the memories that the ring could see through.

Dig!

The ghostly form completely changed form before Lennok’s eyes and turned to face him.

The impression was slightly different from that of Lenok and Ban.

An intellect that cannot be hidden is oozing from the figure staring at this side with a study coat on.

Darby recognized the face immediately and looked up at Lennok, gaping.

[Master, this is… … .]

Lennok laughed at the ghost in front of him.

“You can use the power of the ring in a completely different way than we have discussed so far.”

An assistant professor in the Department of Elements at Rabatenon University of Magic, and an elementalist belonging to Aris Richellen’s laboratory.

A well-known researcher who made a stir in the academic world by presenting his thesis on the anti-gravity engine at the expo.

Lennok’s second identity, Evan Bylon, stood before Lennok’s eyes.
