The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 899
Eyes that see fate (35)
Cheon-gyeon’s suggestion that he can fulfill the mission of a lighthouse keeper.
It was not a simple story of Cheongyeon taking over the mission from Lapis again.
What is left at the border is not the real Heavenly View, but the consciousness left behind by the previous Heavenly View.
It is a memory of Madrea Palsier, a young man with a thousand eyes.
Therefore, Lapis also clearly understood what Cheongyeon was trying to say.
“This is the border that separates the world and the sea. “It is a space where cause and effect are ambiguously mixed and redefined.”
Cheongyeon slowly walked past Lapis and said.
“What happens here is done in defiance of the laws of the material world and the spiritual world, and conversely, it does not follow the exceptions of the sea.”
“… … .”
“A gray area where all concepts and understandings that existed in human affairs are reversed and modified.”
Whoop!!
When Cheongyeon lightly waved his hand, a pillar of pure white light erupted and soon transformed into a gorgeous chair.
Cheongyeon, who was sitting on a huge throne decorated in platinum, leaned against Lapis with his legs crossed and looked at her.
“So here, there wouldn’t be a problem even if the two of us switched roles and stayed behind.”
“… … .”
Lapis Falseer is conducting a ceremony in the sanctuary of the Hexagonal Fortress in front of the gate to the open sea.
The conscious body of Madrea Falseer, which served as a lighthouse at the border of the world.
Cheongyeon was saying that here, the roles of those two people could be replaced by each other.
It is a taboo that is barely tolerated across all arts and systems on the continent. It is a contradiction and immorality that changes the positions of the living and the dead.
However, even after hearing Cheon-gyeon’s suggestion, Lapis remained silent with a sad expression.
As if I had known about this method that Cheongyeon explained for a long time.
“If you throw away one thing, you give up another. “One will remain on the borderline, and the other will return to reality.”
Cheongyeon tapped the armrest.
“It doesn’t matter who goes back. “After all, we are all beings who carry the mission of lighthouse keepers.”
In the gray area where cause and effect are ambiguously mixed, the distinction between Lapis and Heavenly Preservation is of little significance.
Therefore, it is not decided who returns to reality after this ritual is over.
“So, I’ll ask you here.”
Cheon Gyeon said with an expressionless face.
“Do you want me to take your place and continue the mission of the lighthouse keeper?”
“… … .”
“It’s not impossible. Because I’ve already done it once. “Maybe we’ll do better than before.”
“… … .”
“You may be able to move on to the next step ahead of the training you have accumulated. “Because I have been filling that role for longer than you have been alive.”
I guess so. Lapis also did not deny those words.
Cheongyeon of my youth. Even if it is not her, but only a part of her consciousness, she is undoubtedly a memory of Madrea Falseer, who was completed as an ascendant.
The time we have lived, the hierarchy we have built, our experiences, our years of experience, and our relationships.
In any case, Lapis cannot match Cheongyeon.
Above all, Lapis-
“You were hoping for someone who would protect the mission better than you.”
“… … .”
“Isn’t that why you came to see me through a ceremony like this?”
The reason why Lapis recognized the consciousness of Cheongyeon left at the border of the world and tried to meet her.
The reason why the ceremony was held beyond the [gate] under the pretext of recovering the lighthouse keeper’s supernormal abilities.
Cheon-gyeon already knew that everything was not done to protect the mission, but to let go.
That Lapis questioned the mission of a lighthouse keeper, suffered from skepticism, and eventually began to mock herself.
That he was secretly hoping for someone who could carry out his mission better than him.
Cheongyeon already knew everything.
“It is difficult to maintain physical shape here for a long time. “There’s no reason to take on human form if you’re taking on the role of a lighthouse.”
Cheongyeon said, leaning on the throne and waving his hand.
“But I was waiting for you because I thought I knew what your wish was. “Only if I ask this question will you be able to decide.”
“… … .”
“It’s up to you to decide. “It is always up to the living to have the right to choose.”
Cheongyeon smiled and leaned back comfortably in his chair.
When she stretched out her hand across from her, another equally platinum-colored ornate throne rose up to face her.
“Anytime is okay, just tell me. “As long as you remain here, I can wait.”
“… … .”
Instead of answering those words, Lapis kept her mouth shut and stared at the empty throne.
A splendid platinum-colored throne lies across from Cheongyeon.
The moment you sit down on that chair, there will probably be no turning back.
That’s what she meant by the explanation she gave just a moment ago.
Know.
What Cheongyeon said just now was simply to explain what Lapis was curious about.
It answered the question of what would happen to this world after I made my decision.
Even if Lapis accepts the offer, nothing will happen in the world.
However, Lapis stays here, and a different lighthouse keeper replaces her in the world.
I didn’t necessarily think that way because I wanted to be comfortable.
Because I thought that someone else might be able to provide the answer rather than her suffering without certainty…
“… … that’s right.”
Lapis muttered quietly.
“always… … I wanted to give up. “It was always difficult and I resented it.”
“… … .”
“I lied to my followers every day. “They talk about hopes that even they themselves don’t believe in, and they make plans saying that everything will work out.”
“… … .”
“Every time someone dies, everyone says the same thing. “I must live to protect the mission, and the lighthouse keeper must remain to observe destruction.”
“… … .”
“however… … Now I don’t remember all the people who died for me. “In the past, I could remember the face and the voice perfectly.”
Lapis’ voice became faint, as if it would go off at any moment.
Even in the quiet silence, I struggle to speak as if I’m out of breath.
“Invisible and without memory, no one recognizes me and I am being forgotten on the other side of oblivion. It’s so painful to think about that fact alone… … .”
Lapis, holding her chest, muttered softly.
“… … “One day, I thought about letting go like this.”
Lapis said that and staggered forward.
Lapis, standing across from Cheongyeon, who was listening in silence, quietly leaned back on the throne.
Cheongyeon and Lapis looked into each other’s eyes on the platinum-colored throne facing each other.
“Have you decided on an answer?”
“yes.”
Lapis smiled sadly.
“therefore… … “I will take this pain with me until the end.”
“… … .”
“I will not pass this responsibility on to someone else. Because sadness and pain are all mine. “Because I must be the last person to protect the mission in this world.”
Lapis entrusting a mission to the consciousness of Heaven is not a good story of giving new life to the dead.
It is nothing more than an unreasonable attempt to force the painful journey that Cheon-gyeon had to endure in his life once again on her.
Moreover, no one can be sure how long Cheongyeon, who is not a true ascendant but just a fragment of consciousness, can endure.
Even though Cheongyeon knew that, he would have been willing to accept it if Lapis wanted it.
However, because I know how difficult and painful it is, I cannot pass this responsibility on to others.
We will keep this responsibility, which was passed down to us by Heavenly Gyeon during his lifetime, until the moment the world comes to an end.
At the end of a long period of worry and promise, after facing a nostalgic memory on the other side of the world border.
Lapis was finally able to complete her decision.
“Because there are people who want me to come back. “There are people who tell me they need me, not just another lighthouse keeper.”
“Right.”
Cheongyeon smiled amidst the fluttering platinum-colored brilliance.
“I’m so glad that that could be the answer you decided on.”
Paaaaaaaa!!!
At that moment, the bodies of Cheongyeon and Lapis began to shine dazzlingly.
The throne glowed brightly, gently wrapping around the bodies of Cheonkyeon and Lapis.
Lapis’ eyes shined clearly beyond the pure white halo.
“You said it was up to the living to have the opportunity to choose. “I believe that.”
“… … .”
“I will remain as a lighthouse keeper until the end and watch over the fate of this world. Even if our ending is just foam in the ocean… … .”
Paaaa!!
Cheongyeon’s body gradually fades away on the spot, and begins to slowly seep towards Lapis.
A consciousness left by the Ascendant at the border of the world in place of the lighthouse.
The lighthouse keeper’s remaining abilities began to be absorbed directly into Lapis.
“It is up to the living to find the ending. “It’s about finding a destiny that hasn’t been decided yet.”
Cheongyeon laughed, not even thinking about holding on to his slowly disappearing form.
“Is that the conclusion you came to after seeing the wizard fighting on your behalf down there?”
“… … !!”
When Lapis looked at Cheongyeon with a surprised face, she lightly gestured.
The bottom of the throne opened, revealing the cityscape where the battle was taking place.
Kwaaaa!!!
Flame flowers coiled between the black snake’s massive body, and lightning and flames flashing from all directions.
Which of the wizards on the battlefield are Cheongyeon’s words referring to?
Maybe she already knew it was meaningless.
Cheongyeon said, looking down at the ground with gentle eyes.
“He’s a strange person. “He is born with the most perfect destiny, yet he rejects it.”
“yes… … ?”
“The third and final one is a symbol of perfection. Do you know what this means?”
It’s a perfect fate.
The moment Lapis paused, unable to understand what he was saying, Cheongyeon looked at her and spoke slowly.
“He knows. He probably realized a long time ago what fate he was born with.”
“… … .”
“Nevertheless, I hold on to myself in search of more meaning.”
Cheongyeon whispered, unable to hide his admiration.
As if lowering one’s voice so that someone can hear it. As if someone were to overhear this from outside the sea.
“It’s not the same even if you’re standing in the same place, and it’s not different even if you’re standing in a different place.”
“… … .”
“I think the diversity that this man works so hard to protect will be his answer.”
Did Cheongyeon just guess what Evan was dreaming about and envisioning the ending of this world?
Evan’s secret that Lapis was thinking about right before performing the ritual.
The moment I hurriedly opened my mouth, thinking that I might have heard the only answer that penetrated the truth.
“Look, Lapis.”
Cheongyeon muttered, narrowing his eyes as if he was dazzled.
“The most powerful destiny that man has ever attained.”
“fate… … .”
“There is evidence that fate is not something you obey and follow, but is a cause and effect you create yourself.”
At that moment, a bolt of lightning rises from the center of the red-emitting flame flower.
Dismissal, dismissal… … !!!!!
A ray of lightning shot up into the empty sky, spinning on the cracked sky and connecting heaven and earth once again.
It became a very vast and transcendent image that filled the entire sky, shaking Lapis’ mind and body entirely.
Kwaaaaaa!!!!!
A thunderbolt that shakes the heavens and earth.
A distant sea of lightning that I picture as a scene in my heart.
Because the time it takes for it to come down to reality is less than a moment,
Even Lapis, who was looking down at the ground with a cognitive ability comparable to that of an ascendant, could not see clearly.
What resonates in my ears is the lightning flashing across the face of unknown origin.
The end of the sky where eight branches of thunder meet.
The moment when the white whale’s tail fluttered beyond the clouds like a distant afterimage and then disappeared.
[Kahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa… … !!!!]
The black snake’s thought body began to burn and melt and disappear.
