The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 956
Forbidden (11)
Hudderfield Forest. A rest area where Duris Workshop’s atelier is located.
A walking trail around a path created by a tangle of old trees.
Lennok was staring blankly at the back of the Second Apostle as he walked through the swaying trees.
“… … .”
Their attitude was so relaxed that it was hard to believe that they were opponents who had clashed with each other’s techniques just moments ago.
When we met at the Far East Branch, the situation was so hectic that Lennok was not able to take a proper look at the 2nd Apostle.
Apart from knowing that he was a monster that had reached unrealistic levels, there was little awareness of its nature and nature.
However, I did not feel any sinister fanaticism or evil intentions from the second apostle I was now facing.
A presence that calmly sinks like water submerged in a lake. Lazy steps, gaze, breathing and metabolism. Even body temperature and horsepower.
It all feels much closer to a human being than an apostle.
Is it possible to imitate a human because it is free from mania, or is it free from mania because it impersonates a human?
In front of Lennok, who was walking along, thinking about the unknown origin of which came first.
“Fifth is the number of humans. “Sixth is the number of the beast.”
The second apostle spoke first.
“That’s why the six apostles were the ones who were the most physically strong, but who were relatively prone to insanity.”
“… … .”
“The largest number of candidates were discussed within the denomination, and it was a position with frequent replacement in mind.”
The second apostle, sitting at the end of a bench overlooking the lake, spoke leisurely.
“It’s no wonder Anathema became one of the Six Apostles. However, there is one more hidden role given to the sixth apostle.”
“A role?”
The Second Apostle’s gaze passed by Lennok.
“The six apostles are originally one of the vessels prepared for His second coming.”
“… … .”
“If all plans fail and there are no remaining arrangements for the church, he is scheduled to take the place of the soul of the apostle who fell into madness.”
The Second Apostle laughed at Lennok who remained silent.
“That’s why the sixth apostle is taken on by people with strong bodies, and that’s why the Earth God’s apostle technique is exceptionally efficient. “Because an ordinary vessel would not be able to handle His presence.”
“… … .”
“Anathema knew. And he was given the throne of Apostle in exchange for taking on that role. “It’s because the previous apostle perished in battle with Handan, and there was a need to urgently fill the vacancy.”
Sado’s eyes sank coldly as he looked at the quiet lake.
“So I guess it’s not that bad that he died at your hands.”
“… … .”
“Even though he was an outsider, he knew the church extremely well, which also meant that there was a lot of room for him to take advantage of the church.”
The second apostle, leaning back on his chair and tilting his head back, spoke slowly.
“Of course, he may view such variables as passing entertainment, but it is not my role to express such sentiments… … .”
“Even though you serve the religious leader, do you think that his will and feelings are separate from your own?”
Lennok stood with an expressionless face and looked down at the two apostles sitting on the bench.
“As expected, you are different from the other apostles.”
“… … .”
“Not only do I not want to be bound by mania, but I also don’t want to be bound by religious beliefs.”
Lennok asked.
“Of all the apostles I’ve seen, you exist the most independently. “Is the same position regarding the cult leader?”
“The other one is you.”
The second apostle answered calmly.
Behind his glasses, his clear gaze looked up at Lennok.
“Your existence is an exception that has never happened three times in the entire history of the cult.”
“… … .”
“Dan’s faith serves foreign gods, but its essence is only for Him. “If he wishes, all of the church’s regulations will have to be put on the back burner.”
“That’s an interesting thing to say for a confession.”
Lennok sneered.
“The sect’s doctrine is not a foreign media, but a rule made just for the sect leader?”
“The gods of the open sea have no interest in this world. “What they want is not faith, but the end.”
“… … .”
Lennok was left speechless by an assertion he never thought he would hear from the church’s leading apostle.
This is because he was casually letting out thoughts that were not allowed even in death for believers in the doctrine.
However, even while looking at Lennok’s expression with amusement, the Second Apostle did not stop talking.
As if such restrictions and norms have no meaning to him.
“The reason the gods share their dreams with the incarnation is because only he is loved by the gods.”
He asked, twisting his mouth in self-deprecation.
“Not only for God, but also for humans. “For Dan’s believers, the sea god is nothing more than a vague fantasy, and the only thing they believe in and follow is the savior.”
“… … .”
“How can we not follow Him when our existence comes not from God but from Him?”
After saying that, the second apostle slowly stood up.
As he turned towards Lennok, his body swayed in the shadows of the lakeside.
It is not covered by a shadow, but flashes darkly as if it has become an actual shadow itself.
“The sea god and the earthly man are connected by the existence of just one person, so how could you abandon him?”
The monster writhed its entire body, looked down at Lennok, and whispered.
“how… … Could it be possible to deny him the salvation he desires?”
“you… … .”
Lennok, who had been silent, slowly raised his eyes.
Why he was asking Lennok this question right now was because I felt it immediately after hearing those words.
“You saw it.”
The Second Apostle saw the moment Lennok and the religious leader met.
The reason why he appears in front of Lennok at this point and mentions salvation.
The reason for expressing his will by talking about Lennok’s rejection of the salvation desired by the cult leader.
He knew that although the three people gathered in one place and exchanged answers, they did not end up standing in the same place.
Was it because the religious leader gave permission, or was it because he himself was qualified to do so?
Lennok thought that perhaps the two were not that different.
The reason why the 2nd apostle is free from mania. The reason why I was able to be free from the power of the magnetic realm. The reason why I was able to freely glimpse the meeting in my memory.
A power that is not bound by concepts, rules, forms, and will.
“The power of the foreign media you serve in the first place is-”
“well?”
The Second Apostle, who had cut off Lennok’s words, chuckled.
His figure, who took a step back, quickly came out from behind the shadow and returned to its original state.
The second apostle, who returned to the form of a young man wearing glasses, shrugged his shoulders calmly.
“Isn’t it too futile to think definitively with such a specific concept?”
“… … .”
“It was just my pure curiosity up to this point, and now I have to do what needs to be done.”
Because it has to be done.
Lennok also did not forget at what moment the Second Apostle appeared before him.
The moment I got my hands on quicksand from Elvato Duris and realized that the words themselves symbolized someone.
“Forget about Kaise Bajur.”
The second apostle, sitting against the back of the bench, spoke.
“The fact that he made a deal with the church should not be revealed for the time being.”
“… … .”
“This is my reward for explaining the situation of the church to you today and for overlooking my techniques.”
The role of the 6 apostles. The essence of doctrine. About the origin and foundation of the two apostles.
Are you saying that the very fact that he told and acknowledged all of that was in order to keep the matter about Kaise Bajur a secret?
“I don’t remember accepting such a trivial deal.”
“okay? “Then it doesn’t really matter.”
The second apostle smiled, massaging his neck calmly.
“You weren’t planning on going anywhere and talking anyway, right?”
“… … .”
“What I’m trying to say is that everything that has to do with it requires a process.”
The young man raised his fingers and slowly flicked his wrist.
“If you don’t want to be bound by the shackles of prohibition, you have to put something on the other side of the scale.”
“Even though you have that much power, are you still wary of being bound by prohibition?”
Lennok asked.
“Why do you go to such lengths to hide Kaise’s betrayal?”
“If you’ve been researching the project, you would know.”
The young man raised his gaze with a complex expression and answered.
“He was on a fine line from the beginning… … “In the end, he couldn’t keep his balance until the end.”
“… … .”
“It’s not his fault he changed. Rather, it was the result of a very good job. but… … .”
The eyes of the second apostle looking at Lennog glowed coldly.
“Either way you will be disappointed.”
“Either way… … .”
Lennok smiled bitterly at those words.
Because I felt like I knew which side he was talking about and what exactly he was referring to.
I understand. Because the project was a plan to uncover all the failures in the world.
It wouldn’t be strange if, after experiencing countless failures, everything turned out to be different from the beginning.
But even though Lennok knew that, he answered softly.
“How can a person always be the same as the first time?”
“… … .”
“know. It was also quite intentional that I brought up the story of Anathema. “There are endings that must be explained through such hints.”
Just as Anathema eventually abandoned her beliefs and fell as an apostle, did Kaise also change in the same way at the end of the project?
The moment the Second Apostle dares to tell the story of Anathema, which has already been completely concluded,
Lennok understood that this conversation, on the one hand, hinted at Kayse’s ending.
Lennok muttered as he walked past the Second Apostle.
“But it’s still okay. But that doesn’t mean that Kaise’s wish becomes a lie.”
“… … .”
“The evidence is already within me.”
Lennok laughed.
“I just want to understand everything until there is an answer.”
“okay… … .”
The Second Apostle lowered his head with a bitter smile.
“I can’t change the answer given by his adversary with just one word.”
“… … .”
“But this is a warning, Ban.”
The second apostle, who called my name softly like an old friend, grinned.
“If I keep going like this, I will have to kill you someday. Especially if you are so persistent in digging into the plan and trying to ignore everything.”
“Usually the person who gets the last chance is the most toxic.”
Is it because we are faced with two apostles who consistently show a loose attitude?
It’s clearly an important story, but even Lennok’s answer comes off as playful.
“I’m sorry. “I don’t have enough time to consider the fanatics’ circumstances.”
“is it.”
However, the Second Apostle closed his eyes with a faint smile, as if he was pleased with Lennok’s answer.
“I really envy the arrogance of someone who can say that… … .”
“… … .”
“That’s why I think we should end it here today.”
The second apostle, with his back turned with his eyes closed, slowly took off his glasses and spoke.
He naturally looks away, as if he has no intention of showing Lennok his naked eyes.
“If I talk to you any more, I think I’ll forget the real reason I came here.”
“Where are you going?”
“I’m planning to meet the new priestess of the church. I think I’ll be busy for a while. ”
The second apostle answered in a humorous voice.
“Now that Izel and Seina have left, shouldn’t someone stay behind and take care of things?”
“… … .”
He was the leader of the apostles who directly handled major issues within the church.
There will be many things to discuss with Ureka Naidri, who has been newly crowned as a priestess.
Whether the Second Apostle likes Ureka Naidri or not. He will do what needs to be done, as always.
After thinking that far, Lenno nodded with a strange smile.
“I would like you to say hello to the new priestess on my behalf.”
“How are you?”
“If you ask me if my arm is okay, I’ll be very happy.”
“… … what? Hahaha!!”
The second envoy also realized Lennok’s words belatedly and burst out laughing.
Emotional ups and downs that were rarely revealed. The young man, who rarely laughed while shaking his shoulders, took a breath and said.
“In the personal safe given to VIPs of the workshop, an old book of the religious order is stored.”
“… … .”
“take it. “It would be a useful item even for a wizard like you.”
“If you’re thinking of currying favor with gifts now, don’t you think it’s too late?”
“yes. “Because you are the only human being who can say that in front of the servants of all gods.”
“… … .”
“So please, I hope you stay alive until we meet again.”
The apostle said as he took slow steps, as if walking away from Lennok.
“Whether your destiny is to find the light, or to fall into arrogance and fall into the abyss… … .”
The moment when a cold silver light flashed between the hidden eyes of the second apostle.
“I want it to come true under the watchful eyes of the gods.”
Phew!
With a soft whisper, the two apostles disappeared.
A disappearance that seems to have been erased by painting over the empty space with a brush.
However, that being will not disappear from this world and will still freely walk through time and space.
It’s contradictory.
The fact that the second apostle, who should be free and not bound by any restraints, is actually bound by the most important duty of leading the church.
As was the case with countless fates and answers that Lennok had seen so far, origin does not become an origin in itself.
Essence cannot be essence in itself, and the trajectory of life is always bound up in contradictions.
That may be because, in the end, the very existence of this world was a miracle established on contradictions.
This is because this star, which was supposed to perish when causality closed, is still shining on the sea of darkness.
With that in mind, Lennok turned around and started walking back the way he came.
The employees of the workshop that the Second Apostle knocked unconscious must not have come to their senses yet.
There seemed to be time left to copy the quicksand blueprints and check the legal information left in the safe by the second apostle.
There was still work to be done before returning to the Balkans.
