The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 880

Eyes that see fate (16)

Those who inherit the mission of lighthouse keepers inherit from generation to generation the ability to see further than anyone else.

The power given to those who do not stop at the level of simply having good eyesight but can foresee and foresee a crisis before others.

A long time ago, a time when civilization did not even exist. A talent that may have started with one sentry with particularly good eyesight.

However, as a long time passed, the positions of oceans and continents changed, and billions of lives bloomed and died, the power that was passed down miraculously without interruption was transformed into the concept of power, bearing the weight of time and life.

The talent that was all about seeing far into the distance is now looking beyond the present, into the past and future, beyond this world, into the endless sea of ​​darkness.

Since when did the owner of this power be given the name Lighthouse Keeper and given a grand mission?

Maybe the beginning itself wasn’t that long ago.

However, Lapis never once doubted what she had to do or the nature of the power she had inherited.

Life, memories, past, destiny. You can see anything if you want to show it.

Even if you don’t want it, I sometimes thought of this power of showing and seeing it again as a curse.

It was the first time she had seen someone who could see nothing like the young man sitting in front of Lapis right now.

“… … .”

An expressionless face with a cool atmosphere. Dark black hair roughly swept away.

On the outside, he looks quite young, but if rumors are to be believed, his actual age is probably several times more.

He tilts his head back slightly, closes his eyes, and burns the tobacco in silence.

“Whoa… … .”

There was a feeling of fatigue that couldn’t be hidden in the sight of him sitting languidly in a chair.

That was all that Lapis Palseer, the lighthouse keeper and super-power of sight, could see from this man.

The magic being used, the flow of magical power, the source image, and not even the slightest fragment of thought are visible.

A strange sense of discomfort, as if looking into an empty void in the shape of a human being.

This man is the great wizard who is said to be the craziest in the metropolis.

And he was the one who blew away Evan, who was protecting Lapis, and kidnapped her here.

“The gaze… … “It’s not reaching properly.”

Nowhere in this huge obsidian cavity, Lapis’s thoughts could spread outward.

A strange phenomenon where the entire space seems to absorb the thoughts and completely destroy them.

Gomrei said indifferently.

“It would be difficult to use supernormal abilities with poor eyesight.”

“… … .”

Does he even know that Lapis is experiencing backlash from overusing her supernormal abilities?

Maybe it was because he already knew that fact that he was sitting in front of Lapis like this.

Lapis glanced up and quietly asked.

“Where am I?”

“The underground cavity of the tower.”

Lightning answered with his eyes closed.

“It is deep inside the area.”

“… … .”

An area declared by an archmage who has reached level 8.

Is that why even the thoughts of a missionary like Lapis cannot be leaked to the outside world, but rather sinks heavily and remains silent?

Lapis waited for Shimrei’s words, but he didn’t say anything more.

Are they just confining her in this space and have no intention of telling her their intentions?

Aside from the fact that her hands are tied so that she cannot actually make hand signs, there are no restraints that bind Lapis.

It’s okay for her to get up from the chair she’s sitting on and move around this cavity freely.

However, Lapis got up and threw away the foolish idea of ​​running away from Boltrei, and immediately spoke to him.

“I’ve heard stories about you. “It’s quite famous in the center as well.”

“… … .”

“He killed Madrich Onion, single-handedly overthrew the Machine City, and defeated the general of Deadrise.”

Lightning still didn’t say anything.

“He’s a wizard who killed more superhumans than anyone else… … .”

He just opened his closed eyes and stared at Lapis with a clouded gaze.

Even though they are making eye contact and having a conversation, it is impossible to read any emotion or will within them.

“There is no connection between you and me, so why are you doing this?”

However, Lapis desperately maintained her composure and continued speaking with difficulty.

At the point where Evan, who was protecting her, was attacked, there was no possibility of defeating this man with force.

But even so, I had to find a way to keep in touch while wasting time.

Not to save Lapis herself, but for a successor who will carry on her mission as a lighthouse keeper.

In the worst case, even if you die here, the supernormal ability of sight seeing must be passed on to the person who has received the karma of the gazer.

Lapis said, repeating that one fact to herself over and over again.

“Because of this, the central government will recognize not only my visit to the Balkans but also this atrocity. “Do you want a new war to break out over this city?”

“… … .”

“If you’re going to destroy my soul and take away my power, it’s going to take a lot. At least, never in such a radical way-”

“I was asked to kill you.”

Lapis felt her breath suffocating at the indifferent response of Bolrei.

This is because I was confident that I accepted the words spoken by the young man in front of me as an irresistible reality.

Okay, maybe I asked the question in the first place because I wanted to hear that rather than be anxious about the unknown.

Instead of hoping for a miracle that Evan and Patisia will come back to save Lapis, I want to talk about the reality that never changes.

But the words of fastness did not end there.

“I also received a request that requires your abilities.”

Fast, which evaporated the burned tobacco with a single wave of his hand, leaned back in his chair with a listless look.

He took out a new piece of tobacco from his arms, blew it, and muttered as he lit it.

“So I just decided not to choose either one.”

“… … What did you say?”

How can such a conclusion be drawn from that explanation?

Lapis blinked in bewilderment at the archmage’s purely arbitrary answer, and the quickie stood up.

The lightning rod turned around, leaning on its cane, and looked into Lapis’ light blue eyes with a cool gaze.

“If I tie you up here, I will be able to handle troublesome matters, including that wizard, with ease.”

“… … !!”

Lapis’ expression suddenly changed as she understood those words.

Because Lapis immediately understood who the magician that Lightning was talking about was.

No way, what this blood-crazed wizard is aiming for is-

“Evan… … !!”

Lapis shouted without thinking, then gritted her teeth and lowered her voice.

“This person has nothing to do with this matter. “You only helped me because I asked you to.”

“… … .”

However, in response to Lapis’s words, Solider looked down at her and shook his head.

“You’re excited. But it’s not wrong.”

“… … yes?”

“As for the possibility you are talking about, if necessary, action must be taken even at the last minute.”

With Lapis thinking desperately without understanding, Lightning walked past her and shook his head.

“I am not interested in the circumstances of the viewers. “I know enough about that business.”

“Uh, where are you going?”

A fastness that looks as if it will leave the tower at any moment.

However, after hearing his story about Evan, Lapis had no choice but to ask this.

If Lightning changes his mind right now and tries to kill Evan-

As Lightning was about to leave the underground cave, he looked back at Lapis and said.

“Free movement is allowed within the tower. “You can do anything as long as you don’t use your power.”

“What is that… … .”

It didn’t seem like Lightning had any intention of killing Lapis right away, but it also seemed like he had no intention of letting her go.

Lapis had no right to expect anything when things turned out this way, but the ending doesn’t look good either way.

Clearly, something important is being missed.

Something important about Evan that Lightning knows and Lapis hasn’t realized yet.

There is a secret that Lapis clearly knows, but cannot yet relate to this situation.

However, before Lapis’s worries could take shape, Bolton slowly closed his eyes.

“It’s very noisy outside.”

The only thing I felt from this man, whose expressions or intentions could not be read, was the immense fatigue.

The moment Lapis realized that it was something closer to mental wear and tear that went beyond the burden of the body.

“Are they the people involved in the talks…?” … “You’re so confident that nothing will change even if you give me a warning.”

A cold sneer appeared on the corner of Lightning’s mouth.

“Then I guess I’ll have to go pick you up in person.”

“… … !!”

A voice so eerie that it instantly sends goosebumps down your spine.

The notoriety and madness of that wizard, which I had only vaguely felt until now, seemed to be instantly realized with just one word.

The reason why this man, who seemed like he could communicate well at first glance, is called crazier than anyone else in this city.

When Lapis finally realized this and raised her head, Fast’s appearance had disappeared from within the tower.

“… … .”

Whioooo!

A gentle breeze blowing from beyond the vast obsidian cavity.

The underground area of ​​the tower is so wide that the end of the cavity cannot be clearly seen from the chair Lapis is sitting on.

Lapis silently looked at the other side of the chair across from where the fastness had disappeared, then gritted her teeth and stood up.

“… … “I have to tell Evan.”

Lightning told her that it was okay to move freely within the tower.

That’s probably because Lapis is confident that she can’t escape from his territory alone.

If you go against the direct words of that madman, you will probably have to pay a heavy price.

However, Lapis had no intention of stopping her actions just because her life was now a waste.

I am not afraid of failing or even dying due to my own wrong judgment or foolish choices that do not allow me to see reality.

However, it is absolutely unacceptable for the wizard who tried to protect her until the end in this city to be angry because of his own request.

‘If you leave the underground cavity and go to a place where you can see the sky, you might be able to use your supernormal abilities-‘

“Ah, is that Lapis Falcier?”

As Lapis looked around the cavity, trying to calm her fears, a grumpy female voice was heard from behind her.

“… … !!”

“It’s true. “It’s exactly the same as what you see in the picture.”

When Lapis, startled, turned her head, a strangely sharp-looking woman was looking at her with her arms crossed.

Twisting her shoulder-length curly hair with one hand, she tilts her gaze crookedly with a languid look.

“It’s an honor to meet a famous person from the Central Front. Since this is our relationship, shall we shake hands?”

“… … “Who is it?”

“Jenicea. “Call me Jenny.”

Jenny responded.

Jenny came in front of Lapis with somewhat wicked-looking steps and held out her hand.

“He is the person who handles all kinds of colorful and troublesome settlements on behalf of the outlaw who kidnapped you.”

“… … .”

“I still don’t know what Ban was thinking when he kidnapped the lighthouse keeper-”

Jenny’s expression as she said that looked dumbfounded, as if she still didn’t realize what was going on.

In the first place, did you mean that the decision to detain Lapis was carried out without any knowledge within the tower?

While Lapis quickly shook her head, Jenny shrugged her shoulders with a relieved expression.

“Well, since it’s half the job, I don’t think we’ll find out until the end. “I gave up trying to understand it a long time ago.”

“… … .”

“So, it’s better for you to take it easy and wait. “It would be nice to hear about the progress only after everything is over.”

“Gyeonrei forcibly detained me and imprisoned me here.”

Lapis cowered slightly and spoke warily.

“Do you think I, who doesn’t know when I will die, can trust what you say?”

“well. “I don’t think Van will kill you now.”

Jenny answered in a drowsy voice.

“I’m not one to look at someone for too long when I’m half-determined to kill them. Do you think a wizard of that caliber would put the time and effort into an act called murder?”

“… … that.”

Surely, if he had had that much patience, he wouldn’t have had the notoriety of being a blood-crazed wizard.

The explanation was so plausible that Lapis felt herself understanding for a moment and shook her head in slight surprise.

Jenny looked at that expression and smiled mischievously for a moment.

“Oh, it won’t fall. “Usually, almost everyone feels relieved when they hear this.”

“… … .”

As expected, this woman must have had a personality just as dangerous as the fast track that had just left.
