Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Chapter 777

ghost tour (3)

slap, slap!!

The figure of a huge worm running through a damp swamp.

Several slender legs come and go busily, gliding across the swamp like a water strider treading on a lake.

Under the belly of the bug, there was a luggage rack that looked like a blanket, and dozens of people were riding in it.

Passengers looking around with a wary gaze in the wildly shaking swaddle.

Lennok was in the middle of it, leaning over his swaddling bag and examining the map.

While wearing the shadow robe, he mumbled a paprika sandwich with one hand.

‘Once we cross the swamp and reach the headwaters of the river, preparations are complete.’

Lennok, who got off the train, arrived at the swampy area that was scheduled for his destination without difficulty, found a means of transportation nearby, and was able to board.

I heard that there is no railroad connection in the swamp, so there is no choice but to use a unique means of transportation, but Lennok is the first to experience riding a live water strider.

Thanks to this, I had some spare time to travel, and I had time to check my future itinerary.

Of course, before that, there was a minor disturbance of interrogating the passengers who tried to take Lennok’s ring from the train, but what happened after the guide’s ghost ate the other ghosts was just a natural result.

At the very least, Lennok had never thought of letting go of someone who pointed a knife at him.

‘The problem is that I haven’t decided how to cross the river… … .’

A situation in which passengers in the same cabin were interrogated and told of several ways to cross the river.

However, Lennok still had no idea which one would make it easier to enter Yorta.

Since the information about the Headlane River is not that well known, information has only been passed on orally among the officials traveling to and from the military city.

In the end, it seemed that it would be possible to guess only after personally checking the headlane river and undergoing a ‘checkpoint’ that passes through both the material world and the spirit world.

“hmm… … .”

Close your eyes and lean your head back between the swaying swaddle.

Even after taking medicine for motion sickness, the shaking of the water strider every time it moved made me feel sick to my stomach.

Even the minor inconveniences that would normally be dealt with with magic felt great at times like this.

A time when Lennok often realizes how dependent his daily life is on the versatility of common magic.

Wasn’t that why I decided to present this meaning itself in the form of a thesis?

Lennok’s expression as he looked down at the half-eaten sandwich became complicated, but he quickly made up his mind.

‘Let’s start with a clear goal.’

The first thing to do is to find traces of Kaise Bajour and the Black Consumer Project.

And in order to solve the curse of metamorphosis placed on the guardian spirit beast, it is to investigate the memorial tower in Yoreta.

In addition, it is essential to learn the incarnation spell to acquire the clone ability properly.

The problem was that all three targets could not even be attempted without touching the most important secret and source of the military command city.

Kaise. memorial tower. incarnation ceremony.

There is no way that any one of them will not be treated as important in Yorta.

Wasn’t that why Lennok came to the conclusion that he had to go to Yorta himself?

‘Considering the work of Onion in Madrid, I should investigate the Mangwi Night and also check the ghost of the guide.’

Thinking so, Lennok glanced up overhead.

[Ohhh… … .]

Could the commotion in the guest room have been the catalyst?

Even now, the ghost of the guide hovers over Lennok’s head, devouring the detritus around the swamp.

Chomp Chomp!

The appearance of a guide who sighs in satisfaction while chewing and swallowing demons that are not even human in shape.

What is unique is that no ghosts follow the leader no matter how much he devours them.

And the fact that the passengers on the water strider didn’t even notice it.

A slightly different reaction from when he consumed the ghosts of other passengers.

In the first place, what kind of meaning does it have in Mangwiyahaeng that the guide guides the soul?

‘Considering the turmoil at the Rabatenon Necromatics Department, it would be correct to think that he had this ability from the beginning.’

At the time of the agreement with the Mage Tower, which was carried out as Evan, the spiritual body that appeared in the demonstration of the Necromantics Department project was extremely afraid of the guide’s soul.

Because of the overly violent reaction, he quickly resorted to using his hands, but there is no doubt that such a history existed in the guide.

‘It’s an item I got to cross over to Yorta, but it’s a stranger artifact than I thought. After all, if you’re not careful… … .’

Either way would be great if it served the intended purpose, but you should also keep in mind the possibility that things won’t work out smoothly.

At least, all the travels and plans that Lennok had experienced had rarely turned out as easily as he had intended.

The moment Lennok let out a small sigh and folded the map near the headlane river and was about to put it into his arms.

“That, that… … .”

The young man sitting blankly next to him looked at Lennok and opened his mouth.

Lennok, who had quickly put on his robe, replied in a cold tone.

“what?”

“I don’t eat… … Aren’t you going to eat?”

“… … .”

His eyes were fixed on Lennok’s leftover paprika sandwich.

Seeing her drooling, she seems hungry.

As I glanced around at the others, they only looked at me with a wary gaze, but seemed unwilling to intervene.

All of those who crossed the swamp using the water strider’s blanket as luggage were talented people in their own way.

They are people who have a desperate situation to the extent that they have to rent a bug boat to ride in a swamp full of monsters.

The situation is somewhat different from when I left for Makina.

Lennok, who was worried, tossed the sandwich he was holding to the young man.

“Ooh, whoa!”

A young man hurriedly holding a sandwich with both hands and eating it.

Even Lennok wasn’t that hungry, and he had plenty of food, so there was no reason to spare.

No one in the vicinity of Yorta knew Lennok anyway, so no matter how he dealt with it, there wouldn’t be any trouble.

‘It’s also a problem to decide what identity to name.’

Since I obtained the ring of the guide as Victor, it would be correct to name Victor originally.

In fact, Lennok also didn’t wear a mask, but didn’t he come with a shadow robe wrapped around him?

However, if force is needed in Yoreta, it might be more convenient to move as a class.

It was not impossible to work in Yorta as a class if you were determined and made a plan, but it was more of a concern.

‘I don’t think it’s difficult if you learn the incarnation technique quickly… … It’s a plan that can’t be guaranteed.’

Thinking so, Lennok looked silently at the young man eating the sandwich right in front of him.

However, the young man gulped down the sandwich and suddenly lowered his head forward and began to vomit.

“Ooh, woah… … It tastes awful!!”

“… … .”

“No, no meat… … Why are you eating this?” Lennok sighed as he looked at the young man with a teary face and his tongue sticking out. Just as he was about to go to sleep, ignoring the young man, he heard an annoyed voice from the other side.

“hey. You should clean up the leftovers properly.”

A mature man with a brusque expression was frowning.

Looking at the leather armor and equipment that sticks to the body, it is a seeker.

It also seemed to be on the Pathfinder side.

“The swaddling clothes get dirty. Organize properly.”

“… … .”

“Can’t you hear me?”

It was only then that Lennok realized that the man was talking to him and raised his gaze.

“Why are you asking me that?”

“Because you gave that idiot something to eat. Will Mojiri, who can’t speak properly, understand the conversation?”

the man replied.

“I left it because I wanted to eat a sandwich with no meat flavor, but the smell like vomit left a strong mark. Take responsibility and sort it out.”

“… … .”

Does that mean we have to clean up the vomit just to leave no traces?

If you’re worried about the monsters that inhabit this swamp, you’re not wrong.

Judging by the reaction of the other passengers, it seems that they were thinking the same thing.

Lennok nodded.

“Don’t let that happen. Sorry for the rudeness.”

“Quickly time to apologize-”

At that moment, the man’s head jerked forward, and he fell face down on the vomit.

iron!!

“Father Bebe!!!”

While screaming and having seizures, he rubbed his face on the pavement as it was.

A bizarre appearance as if being forcibly manipulated by someone’s hand.

Lennok murmured coldly as the others watched and fell silent.

“Instead, I want to pass the blame on to you, but will you be kind enough to understand?”

“Aaaagh!!”

A man jumped to his feet, his face covered in filth, and drew a sharp dagger from his waistband.

“I don’t know the topic even if this dog tells me at best… … !!”

Pooh!!

At that moment, a long thorn protruding from the bottom of the wrapping cloth penetrated the man’s crotch.

“uh?

“A blow that penetrates between the legs, rips through the intestines, and splits the heart.

The man who couldn’t say anything fell limp as he poured blood from Goku.

Those who realized that the thorn that had killed the man in an instant sprang up from under the swamp, jumped to their feet.

“M-Masuda!!”

“Damn it, you’ve already been chasing the smell?!”

“Protect the water strider. I need help until I cross the swamp!!”

[Kieek!!]

Those who rode the blankets projected magic in all directions to protect the water strider, but it was too late.

An insect resembling a praying mantis descended from a tree and cut the water strider in half with a sickle in its hand.

The insect, whose head and body were separated, collapsed as it was, and the cloth hanging under the boat was thrown into the swamp.

growl!!

As if the monsters swimming under the swamp waited for it to bite the cloth, blood gushed out as if biting into a grape.

The only ones who survived were a few people who escaped the wrapping and climbed onto the insect’s back at the same time as the mantis appeared.

“profit… … !!”

Unable to contain her anger, the woman grabbed Lennok by the collar.

“The water strider died because of you. How are you going to do this?”

“Let go of my hand.”

Lennok replied coldly.

“Unless you want your head split.”

“what?”

Awesome!!

At that moment, the head of the praying mantis, which had been charging from behind the woman, was cut in two.

The body that fell into the swamp while dripping dark green bodily fluids, other monsters began to eat again.

so-so!!

A figure that seems to prefer the corpses of the same monsters to humans.

With no time to react to what happened in an instant, the stunned woman quickly let go of her robe.

The person who climbed on top of the dead bug’s head and looked at the situation said.

“It didn’t happen because of Rob. I can smell blood from far away.”

“The smell of blood?”

“Someone bleed first near the swamp. There are a lot of demons gathered around.”

“Me, me… … know… … .”

At that moment, the young man who was sitting on the bug’s back muttered blankly.

The woman looked at him and stepped back with a frightened expression.

“It’s a surprise! Why is this bastard still alive?”

“… … .”

While Lennok was silently watching the young man, the young man smiled and pointed in the direction of the swamp.

“Over there, who knows. I know.”

“… … Do you know anyone in this swamp?”

“I’ll take you. Acquaintance.”

At the words of the young man, the others pondered for a moment, and the woman threw out her anger as if she were full of energy.

“Do you believe that? Let’s think about how to escape quickly!!”

“Run away? How are we going to get away from here?”

said the man standing on the bug’s head.

“We still have a long way to go to get out of the swamp. You have to jump over trees to cross the swamp without water striders. can you do it?”

“that… … !!”

As the saying goes, there are monsters like praying mantises on the trees looking this way while drooling.

If you abandon the water strider and climb up the tree, they will attack without fail.

“If an acquaintance of this person is fighting over there, it might be better to cooperate with them… … .”

“If the other side made it this far, they would have the means to cross the swamp.”

As the conversation progressed to that point, the others seemed to have made up their minds as well.

A situation where it is impossible to cross the swamp normally at the point when the bugs are dead.

With things like this, everyone is thinking that we need to work with the other side to find a way.

“If there had been a bloody fight, there would have been fewer people there. Maybe this amount of people can board.”

“Even if that’s not the case, if you kill and take it… … .”

“Shh.”

Of course, it should be assumed, but it is not something to discuss now.

All the passengers were united and trying to move in the direction indicated by the young man.

Lennok, who had been standing on the bug’s corpse, also followed the group.

“Careful, careful… … .”

“It won’t come off if it gets wet with demonic juice. Be careful not to step on it.”

Picking up the struggling young man, the group moves to the epicenter where the smell of blood has risen.

As you approach, the scent of blood rises.

It’s almost certain that the smell of blood, not the commotion that just happened, has summoned the monsters.

Susseuk!

A view of a small island located above a swampy area.

The appearance of several bodies lying dead on it.

Perhaps it was devoured by the Witchbeast, but it is such a miserable figure that even its original form has not been properly preserved.

While the party fell silent, a pale-faced woman looked around and muttered.

“Hey, this… … that’s right?”

“… … .”

“Is this right? Why are they all dead!!”

The woman grabbed the young man by the collar, who gave directions in a shrill voice.

“Where is your friend? If you lied, I’ll kill you here!!”

“no. this is right.”

The young man smiled brightly as he was grabbed by the collar.

“We must feed to live. I need.”

“… … what?”

At that moment, the young man’s head burst out like an explosion and turned into a huge monster.

As it was, it swallowed the upper body of the party standing nearby.

Ugh support!!

As the monster’s jaws roared at the same speed as a flash, the human flesh was ripped off on the spot, unable to resist.

However, only Lennok, who stood among the group, was alive and well.

“… … .”

It wasn’t that Lennok was dodging an attack or blocking the teeth of a young man who had turned into a monster.

As if the young man had intended, he avoided Lennok and killed and chewed up the others.

“You gave me a sandwich.”

The young man, whose head had turned into a grotesque monster, said with a chuckle.

“I will save you. run away.”

“… … .”

Could it be that Lennok didn’t kill me here with the grace of giving me a sandwich?

But instead of running away, Lennok stared blankly at the young man and said,

“I thought it was a monster that spoke human words, but it wasn’t.”

“… … You saved me, did you?”

Even as he said that, the figure of a young man approaching with his teeth gnashing.

As if unable to control his appetite, he opened his mouth at Lennok’s head.

Lennok shook his head, staring at the elongated froth of blood between his teeth.

“The fable of the beast that repaid the favor is just nice to look at. I have no intention of becoming that target.”

“Oh, meat… … .”

Reason quickly disappears from the young man’s eyes.

“You, sandwich… … Hungry for more… … .”

“Isn’t it hard to maintain reason? It will be hard to bear.”

Lennok seemed to understand.

“At least the ones I saw were similar. Instead of being consumed by madness, they are influenced and obeyed by their own will.”

“Ugh, ugh… … !!”

“A taboo that is committed voluntarily contains the strongest immorality and contradiction. That’s far from the instinct that demon beasts feel.”

Unaware of the unusually friendly voice, the young man charged at Lennok.

“Because you gave it to me… … Feed me!!”

snap!!

As if he couldn’t resist his appetite, the monster’s head swallowed Lennok’s whole body from head to toe.

As it is, it shakes its throat wildly and swallows it in one gulp without chewing properly.

“Ohh, oh… … !!”

After the young man screamed and twisted his body, people around him began to appear one by one.

Saaak… …

A uniform uniform of pure white cloth and an expressionless face.

Each holding a weapon, making eye contact and slowly approaching the young man.

The moment when people tried to stab their weapons as hard as they could at the twisting monster.

damn!!

Countless solid red lines were drawn over the monster’s body, and then it exploded as it split into dozens of meat pieces.

Kwaaang!!

Lennok’s voice echoed from within the hideous, dismembered body of the monster.

“Monsters who have lost their intellect and covet human flesh aren’t the only monsters.”

“… … .”

“Human body transformation that deviated from the principles of the magic formula. Cannibalism based on human sacrifice. Strength that is not limited to hierarchies.”

said Lennok, who walked out of the crowd, who had turned surprised.

“Aren’t all the characteristics of the apostles made by you?”

Having said that, Lennok cast his gaze toward the new clothes of the newcomers.

Material made of pure white cloth. Simple decorations and unified attire.

Because the form of the formal dress, which was familiar somewhere, was very similar to that of the group Lennok knew.

“Because I think we should check why you’re here.”

Seeing the followers hesitating and stepping back, Lennok smiled.

“The Guido Church. What are you doing against the Witchbeasts in a remote area like this?”

The epicenter of the swamp that smelled of blood and summoned demon beasts.

The ones hiding there and waiting for the party were the priests of the Guido Church.

“… … He was someone who knew about the origins of the school. It is as you say.”

Among the believers who were looking at each other, someone stepped forward with a smile on their face and put their hands together.

“I needed an apostle, so I was making an apostle. I wonder if Shinto-nim is also interested in it.”
