The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 903
Eyes that see fate (39)
Rumbling… … !!
On the other side of the distorted sky, burning red flower petals fluttered aimlessly.
The reverberation of the thunderbolt seeped under the split clouds, and the fragments of the flame flower lost their shape and spread a faint heat.
The image of Lapis raising her hand through the haze that still remains on the ground.
“… … .”
Without saying a word, he touches his mouth with an expressionless face.
It’s as if he is finally realizing, confirming, and recognizing his changed appearance.
Long flowing navy blue hair. The facial features have become sharper than before.
Even the gaze that quietly looks around feels foreign, as if it is not human.
The conscious body of Cheongyeon encountered at the border of the world.
Lennok narrowed his eyes at the sight, which seemed to resemble Madrea Falseer in her youth, and the others hardened their expressions.
Doo doo doo… … !!!
Just watching that, a strong sense of discomfort as if everyone’s eyes were being forcibly drawn towards her.
He doesn’t let go of his gaze once he has caught her, and it seems as if he is forcibly holding onto her every move and tying her up.
‘I can’t read the signs… … .’
The high-ranking wizards in the tower retreated in a cold sweat, feeling completely alienated from the existing hierarchy.
A feeling of pressure that seems to be suppressing the thoughts and thoughts around you just by standing there and doing nothing.
The moment everyone simultaneously understood that Lapis Falseer’s power had undergone a huge change on the other side of the fortress.
Lapis’ cool gaze precisely intersected with Lennok’s eyes.
“… … .”
Everyone who was watching the two face each other held their breath, tense.
Even after a decisive battle with Evan Martinez that devastated the entire city, the crazy archmage stands still and waits for the next one.
A face to face with Lapis Falseer, who appeared in a completely different form on the other side of the sanctuary of the Hexagonal Fortress and transcended time and space in an instant.
There is no one in this city who does not know how strangely tangled the causal relationship between two people is.
It wouldn’t be surprising if either side tried to put an end to a fight they couldn’t finish.
“… … .”
However, Lennok and Lapis did not raise their magic power towards each other or utter harsh words.
As if we had made a promise, we just looked into each other’s eyes without saying a word.
The lighthouse keeper who seems to be looking into Lennok’s inner self, and the wizard who does not avoid Lapis’ gaze.
She looked at Lennok for a while and then turned around without saying a word.
Wow!!
Grisha came down from under the giant tree and stood behind Lapis, supporting Evan.
Other high-ranking observers who were surrounded on all sides also quietly followed Lapis.
Damn it!
Hundreds of observers followed the lighthouse keeper who began to walk slowly.
An army of watchers marching through the middle of the city center, which has been turned into ruins, while supporting a fallen wizard.
“Wait a minute, leaving here without any follow-up is-”
“Matif.”
Belatedly, just as one of the city council members was trying to somehow catch her, Mayer tapped his cane.
“Let me go.” “We also open the front lines built on the outskirts of undeveloped areas.”
“Senator Mayer. but… … .”
“Don’t you know yet?”
Mayer smiled bitterly and winked to the side.
Lennok shows no reaction to Lapis’ actions.
Mayer understood that at the point when Fast was acquiescing to this moment, he had no choice.
“The shaman is right. Here we are defeated. “It is over there that you will achieve your goal and leave.”
“… … .”
“It would be right to let you go when you say you are leaving quietly.”
Mayer nodded calmly.
“I will take responsibility, defeat the army-”
“Senator John Mayer.”
Lapis came up to him and looked down at Mayer without saying a word.
Mayer, who was momentarily speechless at the elegant appearance that seemed to have transcended humanity, opened his mouth with a bitter smile.
“… … Lord Falsier.”
“… … .”
“You’ve changed a lot since I last saw you.”
Lapis, who was looking down at him with transparent eyes, nodded lightly.
“I see you.”
“… … “You can see it?”
“So let me be clear here.”
Lapis spoke, ignoring Mayer’s pause at the sudden remark.
She looked back at the people stopping around her with a cold gaze and opened her mouth.
“The ceremony is over. “I have made my decision.”
“… … .”
The reason why Lapis Falseer’s appearance suddenly grew.
The reason why hundreds of watchers suddenly appeared without any sign of presence.
Crucially, even the formidable fragments of magical power flowing from Lapis Falseer’s entire body.
While Mayer’s expression hardened, Lapis spoke softly.
“A lot has happened, but I am still me.”
“… … .”
“As promised, I decided to keep that one fact until the end.”
Lapis muttered that and quietly closed her eyes.
Wizards and investigators who did not understand her words met her gaze in silence.
However, Lennok understood that what Lapis was saying now was an answer to only one person.
Because I met Cheongyeon at the border of the world and made a decision. Because he came back after seeing what Lennoc wanted.
She was trying to fulfill her wish here and now.
“So, everything that happened today… … .”
Lapis was about to say something, but then smiled bitterly and shook her head.
As if she was trying to shake off all the lingering regrets that remained inside her.
As she slowly opened her eyes, her eyes shone with utmost clarity.
Lapis said, repeating what she had whispered to herself once again.
“I will leave everything that happened today buried here.”
“… … .”
At the moment when everyone inadvertently turned their gaze towards her at her firm words that would not tolerate rejection.
“… … Right.”
At that cold declaration, Mayer quietly stroked his chin and nodded.
“I heard you clearly. “I will personally deliver it to the Central Council.”
“… … .”
“However, after everything is over, can you promise to send an envoy to this assembly?”
Mayer asked calmly.
“Responsibility aside, adjustments to the Dominion’s non-aggression pact will be necessary. “Isn’t that why you decided to visit the Balkans?”
“The tenth lighthouse is expected to be completed soon.”
Lapis said with an expressionless face.
“Once the lighthouse is completed and new abilities are released, then there will be no need to make promises like this.”
“… … .”
As if she had said all she wanted to say, Lapis turned around without hesitation.
Phew!
Lapis, who has grown taller, nods and passes by Lennok.
It looks like he no longer has any regrets about that fact.
“… … half?”
Mayer called out to Lennok, looking slightly embarrassed, but Lennok did not answer.
Who was the greeting that Lapis just gave a nod to?
Either way, it is clear that Lapis was trying to reach her own conclusion here and now.
In that case, Lennok should also respect Lapis’ judgment.
That was the only thing Lennoc could do for Lapis, who had pledged to remain in the world until the end.
wickedness… … !!
The reaction of high-ranking observers passing by Lennok and glaring sharply at his face.
Lenok looked away from that intense gaze and looked up at the sky, watching the Blue Eyes moving away.
“It’s raining.”
“… … .”
Tap, tap… … !!
Dark clouds gathered in the sky once again, and rain fell.
The aftermath appears long after the battle between the two wizards has ended.
The abnormal weather that occurred as a result of the clash between monsters that exceeded their limits normalized, and rain cooled the ground.
Seeing the attendants hastily bringing umbrellas, Mayer sighed with a troubled expression.
“There must have been an uproar in the media. How should Congress announce this situation? … .”
Lennok slowly walked away, feeling the rain falling from the darkened sky.
Leaving Mayer speechless, Lennok walked in the opposite direction from Lapis without any hesitation.
Area 19, a closed area. A warrant issued directly by the city government. A conflict that took place over the sanctuary of the fortress.
The huge turmoil that the entire metropolitan city was watching has come to an end, and only the aftermath remains, a ruin that echoes like an echo.
And, for Lennok, there was one last thing left to do.
* * *
Rumbling!!
The main body of the Blue Eye crosses the undeveloped area, with hundreds of observers lined up on both sides.
A ship made of intertwined tree roots was traversing a rough unpaved road at high speed.
A landing fleet created by Grisha’s magic to sail on land, not the sea.
The observer who came next to Lapis, who was leaning against the side of the deck, opened his mouth.
“Lapis. “We have summoned a mid-dimensional engine to the outermost edge of the undeveloped area.”
“… … .”
“If you use the power you have accumulated in advance, you can return within two days-”
“Senju.”
Grisha shook his head.
“later. “I will handle the secondary matters separately.”
“… … All right.”
The observer who was about to say something nodded quietly.
Most observers are aware of the fact that Lapis attempted to carry out a very important mission in this city.
However, it was not properly revealed what that mission was.
“Lapis, how are you feeling?”
Grisha asked, looking back at the large city moving away with his arms crossed.
“Are you okay? “Can we talk?”
Grisha knows that Lapis visited Balkan to meet the consciousness of Heavenly Gyeon.
Also, the fact that he was looking for the door to the open sea in order to retrieve all of the lighthouse keeper’s supernormal abilities.
However, Grisha did not forget that he had to confirm the most important fact with Lapis.
Grisha’s eyes sank deeply as he looked at Lapis.
“you… … “Are you still the same person I know?”
“Mr. Grisha.”
Lapis slowly opened her eyes at those words.
Lapis, who was staring at Grisha, smiled expressionlessly.
“I’m just a little tired. I’m fine.”
“… … .”
“I was thinking about the meaning of the last thing I saw.”
“If that means… … .”
Grisha’s complexion changed slightly.
In the process of entering the satellite city on the outskirts of the Balkans, Grisha was also aware of ‘something’ that appeared when the sky opened.
The high-ranking observers who had been listening intently to Lapis’ words finally opened their mouths one by one.
“You were talking about the ability that Lightning last used.”
“The sky opened and closed. Did everyone see it?”
Liza and Seong-myeong are close to being physically capable, and Raplad, who is a magician but specializes in hand-to-hand combat.
In addition, newly recruited high-ranking observers from the center recalled what had just happened.
“I have seen many supernatural abilities, but this is the first time I have seen the sky open just by the development of intention.”
“It was a very clear and powerful image. “If you look at the construction rate alone, it’s denser than Old Man Je Byeok’s microcosm.”
“I heard there are different levels of archmage. Has he reached a state of absolute perfection when it comes to manipulating images?”
“Compared to any magician I’ve seen, the speed of development was on a completely different level.”
Grisha nodded with a stern expression.
“The process of developing an area with a certain level of focus was clearly demonstrated… … “It was the first time I didn’t understand its true value.”
“… … .”
A miracle that disappeared so quickly that even though all the observers here could perceive it with all five senses, their identity could not be guessed.
“Evan’s area of self-reflection will not lag behind either.”
Seong-myeong, who held the spear pole tightly, hurriedly opened his mouth.
“From what I heard on the way, an unexpected variable occurred during the battle, so we had no choice but to-”
“what?”
Hearing those words, other observers looked at Myeong-myeong with a somewhat curious expression.
“Sunmyung, I thought you could say something like that.”
“Have you developed feelings for each other just because you’ve known each other for so long?”
“… … “It’s not like that.”
As the cackling observers swatted away their hands in annoyance, Grisha shook his head with a wry smile.
“Let’s ask Evan about that after he wakes up. “I’ll have to check before I get to the center anyway.”
He said he appeared in Balkan for a while to help Lapis, so he shouldn’t forcefully drag Evan to the center now.
Just as Grisha was thinking that, he was trying to control the direction of the ship by moving his main force.
“Mr. Grisha.”
Lapis, whose eyes were closed, suddenly opened her mouth.
“There is someone waiting.”
“… … what?”
Lapis slowly opened her eyes and said
“I don’t think I can just pass it up.”
“A person who waits, that means… … .”
Wow!!
Grisha, who said that, stiffened his face as the force of determination pressed down on his shoulders.
As soon as Lapis said that, she started stamping the entire area as if she had no intention of hiding it.
A ferocity that can be felt to the point of madness, as it completely controls the entire space with its hands.
A richly decorated palanquin was placed on the other side of the fork in the road leading out of the city.
Whioooo!!
“That… … .”
Red giants are kneeling on both sides of the palanquin covered with a transparent veil.
People in suits stood behind the palanquin and kept their mouths shut.
The force emanating from the kiln is not inferior to Lapis.
No, if you look at the strength of the momentum, this place is-
[Was it you who was the lighthouse keeper who took over the next position from Cheongyeon?]
“… … !!”
A magnificent display that immediately hardens the complexion of those watching.
A strong doctor who delivers the message not through voice, but through pure magic.
Sweet.
The door of the palanquin opened, and a tall woman slowly walked out.
A thick coat of arms and a veil covering the face. A rainbow-colored eye light flashes beyond it.
A heavy and intense magical power flowing out like a thick fog.
Coo coo coo!!
Just by standing in place and casting your gaze in this direction, you feel the pressure as if the air around you is becoming heavier.
상식을 초월한 강자라는 것을 직감한 주시자들이 빠르게 뛰어내려 대열을 갖춘 찰나.
[풍문으로 이야기는 전해 들었으나, 생각보다도 훨씬 어린아이로군.]
올리비에라가 느긋하게 말했다.
[그 늙은이가 혈육이라는 인연에 매달려 사명을 그르칠 리는 없으니, 경험이 아니라 소질을 우선한 게냐.]
“올리비에라 론 메이즈……!!”
“카르텔의 수장이 무슨 일이지?”
날카롭게 반응하는 주시자들을 무시하고, 올리비에라가 가볍게 손짓했다.
쿵!
형광색 머리칼을 가진 소녀가 큰 의자를 짊어지고 나타나 얌전하게 내려놓고 물러섰다.
자연스럽게 의자에 비스듬히 기대앉은 그녀가, 베일 너머로 고개를 젖히며 말했다.
[모든 일이 끝나기 전에, 새로운 등대지기의 얼굴을 한번 직접 봐두고자 하였다.]
“…….”
[아마 지금이 아니라면 우리의 인과가 맞닿을 시기를 가늠할 수 없을 테지.]
라피스 팔시어가 공능을 모두 회수하고 새로운 등대지기로 거듭나는 시점.
사명을 위해 서약한 이 순간을, 올리비에라는 두 눈으로 보고자 라피스를 찾아왔던 것이다.
그리고 라피스는, 그런 올리비에라의 말이 틀리지 않다는 것을 이미 알고 있었다.
그녀가 라피스를 만나러 오지 않았다면 두 사람의 시간이 겹치는 일은 일어나지 않았을 테니까.
그리고, 그 사실을 라피스가 올리비에라와 같이 실감하고 있는 것은 분명-
[네가 이어받은 공능과, 나의 두 눈은 닮은 구석이 있지. 너도 느끼고 있지 않느냐?]
올리비에라가 베일 너머로 묘한 미소를 지었다.
[오지 않은 미래를 들추고, 정해지지 않은 인과의 매듭을 보지. 우리는 성공이 아니라 실패의 굴레 속에서 태어난 저주다.]
“…….”
[만물에 대한 차선책을 흉내 내기에, 그릇 이상의 기적을 탐하지만 비원에는 닿지 못해…… 아이러니한 일이지 않느냐?]
“시간이 많지 않습니다.”
Lapis answered with an expressionless face.
“If you have something to say, please do so right here and now.”
[Yes, you must have seen it with those eyes… … How was it?]
Oliveira, who was staring at Lapis’ face, laughed.
[Was there anything under that sky that was free from the changes of birth and death?]
“… … .”
Only then did Lapis raise her gaze and stare straight at Oliveira’s veil.
Because I realized what the question Oliveira had come here to ask Lapis was for.
Inaction that leaves the transition between life and death. A world of truth that absolutely exists.
What does it mean to ask Lapis that right here and now?
Oliveira already knew that Lapis was the only person who saw the fast image and returned.
Was he trying to confirm with Lapis whether there was a concept beyond human mutual understanding or something beyond that?
[If the absolute truth has descended on the human world, it must be addressed here.]
Oliveira said leisurely.
[If you calculate the future without considering the constants of cause and effect, even a small mistake will lead to an uncontrollable miscalculation.]
“… … no.”
Lapis shook her head quietly.
“I saw, but I did not see. He is a person who has inherited the supernormal ability of sight seeing, so he should not say that he has seen its true nature.”
[then?]
“I just thought that if there was an answer that hadn’t been decided yet, that would be enough for now.”
Lapis said as she glanced back at the fallen Evan.
“If the unanswered ending is still on our side, we will definitely be able to stand before the truth someday.”
[…] … .]
Oliveira tilted her head with an expression of displeasure.
[It’s so pure. Would it be enough if the world could be given one more chance?]
“… … .”
[Well, good. Such purity is also a virtue that a person who protects his mission must be able to maintain.]
As she slowly stood up and gestured, the chair she was sitting on disappeared.
Oliveira smiled as she turned without hesitation and entered the wide open palanquin.
[One, I am already certain. Just because what you and I saw wasn’t an illusion will mean something to us.]
“Are you still looking for meaning?”
[The fact that it exists is important. It’s too boring to worry about anything more than that.]
Oliveira waved her hand.
[I tried to set a conclusion and follow the process, even when I failed once.]
“… … .”
[Originally, I would have personally checked the qualifications of the new lighthouse keeper here… … .]
A faint smile was mixed in Oliveira’s voice as she turned toward the palanquin.
[It’s tasteless to ruin the game before the curtain call.]
Slam!!
As soon as the palanquin door closes, red-skinned giants stand up carrying the palanquin.
Immediately followed by a crowd of people wearing suits, they disappear across the street like fog.
Lapis stared at the missing spot, then slowly looked away.
A huge wooden ship made from the main force left behind by Grisha.
At the end of the deck, Evan, who had just woken up, was looking down at the ground.
“… … .”
A pale and faintly trembling complexion, as if exhausted after an arduous battle.
The expression on his face was stiff and awkward, as if his complexion had no color.
Other watchers belatedly realized that Evan had woken up and their expressions widened.
“Evan, are you okay!”
“What if the person who fainted wakes up already?!”
“I almost died. “You’d better take it easy.”
The voices of watchers talking loudly on deck.
However, even though Lapis saw that, she did not laugh along with them or call him out loud.
“Evan.”
With an expressionless face, I just stared into Evan’s eyes, who had just woken up.
“Can you two talk for a moment?”
“… … Lapis?”
Lapis, ignoring the other observers’ halting remarks, nodded lightly toward Evan.
The curtain call that Oliveira teasingly mentioned.
It was ironic, but Lapis also knew that there was no way to compare this moment.
I decided to bury everything that happened today in those ruins, but there were still things that needed to be exchanged.
“I want to tell you something about Evan’s fate.”
Lapis smiled bitterly for the first time.
“About an ending that might be our last.”
