The Magician’s Memorial - Chapter 17

Episode 17

Law is a conversation with the world.

Quilbian looked at the amulet as it fell and disappeared, thinking.

Should I at least yell?

Or should I whisper?

I took the amulet back into my hand. Now, if I concentrate for about ten seconds, a blue light will flash from the amulet.

Altera looked at the blue light and said, ‘lightning.’

A power that is useless at the moment.

What was needed now was a wind that could send the talisman flying.

I threw a few more talismans and turned around. My eyes were fixed on the open book on the desk.

Sitpin Hwang-hyung’s magic.

As Altera had said, all sorts of basic magic techniques were recorded.

There are many magic tricks, such as the magic to gently massage shoulders, the magic to raise the temperature of a teacup, the magic to add luster to flower petals, the magic to hang a picture in the air, etc.

Among them, the ‘spell of raising the wind’ was written in Chapter 3 of the introduction.

A figure in which the left fist is clenched and placed against the chest, and the right index finger is spread and extended forward.

It was a necessary seal for magic.

Quillvian took the seal and tried to move Nak several times.

It felt like something was moving inside my body, but it wasn’t a cool, spraying feeling.

The result wasn’t very satisfying either.

The amulet did fly, but it would fall from about 5 meters away.

Crumpling up the talisman and throwing it with your hand would make it go farther.

What could be the problem?

Having to deal with invisible forces.

I was so at a loss that I just kept laughing in vain.

After being dazed for about a minute, I picked up the talisman again.

There is no time to be discouraged. A day has already passed. If I don’t get results by tomorrow, I will have to give up the magic as I promised.

Give up.

Quilbian hated that word. Competition meant victory. He never thought about defeat or frustration.

Above all, if I lose this bet, I’ll just have to watch Twella. Incompetently.

Just thinking about it gives me the creeps.

That can never happen.

Altera prophesied failure by using the strange word “fate,” but was it really true?

Everything is set in stone.

It was a strange sound, but it was so strange.

I will tell you that there is no such thing as fate, just success.

“Just a little more!”

Quilbian cheered at the amulet flying in a straight line.

The amulet, which had advanced 5 meters, lost power again and fell.

150m to the opposite dormitory.

It was a long way away.

Even if we got a strong wind, there was still one more problem.

The task given by Altera is to hit the tiles with the talisman. You have to set a precise target and shoot them, not just blow them away.

Quilbian frowned slightly as he looked at the target tile.

The sun was passing over the dormitory. The light from the large body made the surroundings even brighter.

If I could use my strength like that goblin… … .

Altera said that Nak was infinitely weak.

Since the basic stamina, Nak, is lacking, the amulet will fall before it can go beyond 5m.

He said it was difficult to increase Nak in a short period of time. Maybe if he had talent like Twella.

Instead of focusing on what can’t be done, we had to find a way out of what we could do.

Create blue lightning.

Lightly fling the talisman.

And some miscellaneous magic tricks that were surprisingly easy to learn.

Quilbian twisted his fingers to make a seal and poured Nak into the talisman.

The flowing Nak interacted with the talisman and caused a phenomenon to occur.

Ding, ding, ding.

It vibrates.

It felt cool on my shoulder.

Well, it was a useless spell. Even when I let go of it, the talisman continued to float around for a while.

Ding, ding, ding.

The amulet bounced slightly and moved across the floor. Quilbian stared blankly at it.

A crude method occurred to me.

Will it work?

Before I could ask myself again, I moved.

A talisman that Altera gave me in abundance.

This was the key.

I moved Nak while holding the amulet that would be the first. I couldn’t feel it, but Mana must be moving along with it.

He kept pouring out Nak.

Okay then.

The amulet was torn apart with a sharp sound. I could also see the Nak scattering.

I checked my watch right away.

17 minutes.

Is this the limit that the amulet can withstand?

I continued the experiment with the second talisman. I moved the Nak to the precarious line and then let go.

Ding, ding, ding.

The talisman that had been activated by magic vibrated.

Quilbian placed another talisman on top of the one that was bouncing.

The talisman bounced off immediately.

I uploaded a few more.

The direction in which it bounced off was random.

I prepared a third talisman.

I tried using the magic of the Sitpin Hwang-hyung, the magic of hanging a picture in the air contained in Chapter 1 of the Book of the West.

“huh?”

I made a knot and guided Nak, but as soon as I put down the talisman, it fluttered and fell to the floor.

Why?

After thinking it over carefully, I picked up my pencil. I drew a spoon in the corner of the talisman. It was my first drawing, so it was a mess, but it was a drawing anyway.

Activate the spell again.

As I released my finger, the talisman hung in the air.

It’s amazing. When I drew a picture, the talisman was identified as a ‘picture’ and the magic was activated.

Who is the subject of judgment?

Quilbian looked at the talisman and thought.

This is a painting, this is a painting.

The amulet fell limply.

For some reason I felt scared. I raised my head for no reason and looked around.

“Who is watching?”

It was a strange and bizarre world. It wouldn’t be strange if the master of magic was watching.

Of course, there was no answer.

If you ask Altera later, you will know the answer.

I drew a picture on the corner of the talisman. As I continued to draw the spoon, a pretty presentable spoon shape emerged.

All that remains is to apply the two magic techniques.

I used the painting technique on the floating talisman one after another.

Phew!

The amulet swelled and shrank as if something was bursting out of it.

It wasn’t the result I was hoping for.

Quilbian frowned and looked at the amulet. Two magics must be activated simultaneously for there to be a chance of success.

What is the stumbling block?

When I was stuck, the best thing to do was to break the problem down. I looked through Sitpin Hwang Hyung’s book of magic.

“Should I change the decision?”

It felt like the shape of the Nak leaving my body also changed with each change in movement.

What if two forces conflict and cause self-destruction?

Quilbian recalled the seal of Altera. He used various magics with a snap of his fingers.

The more concise the better.

Quilbian wiggled his thumb to see how Nak would react.

Even though I tried to move with determination, there was no response.

then.

I tried moving my fingers sequentially. I also changed the height of my hands and the distance between them.

“This is it.”

Fold the joints of your middle, ring, and little fingers and place them on your palm, and straighten your thumb and index fingers.

It was a random form of determination, but the ‘shoulder massage technique’ was activated.

Quilbian observed closely how Nak moved.

A cold energy started from the lower right chest, circled around my torso, passed through the back of my neck, then quickly ran down my arms and sprayed through my fingertips.

“after.”

My head felt slightly dizzy.

The slightly reduced Nak quickly rose again after a few breaths.

I used my second spell while retracing the path of movement within Nak’s body.

It’s the same!

Although they used different magic, the path Nak used was the same.

An amulet containing two magical powers.

Quillvian placed the bouncing talisman in the air.

Boom, boom, boom!

It was a talisman that vibrated in the air with a constant beat.

Now it was time to set course.

I put the talismans in a row with my thoughts written in the book.

Talismans suspended in the air, spaced 30cm apart.

Quilbian turned his back to the door and threw a new talisman at the row of talismans.

The amulet that flew while spraying bounced off the first amulet and moved to the second amulet.

The amulet that was moved over the six talismans then flew out through the window.

“… … Okay.”

The water skipping I’ve done countless times by the stream.

Should I call this a talisman dumpling?

Quilbian checked the time after creating a new talisman.

The amulet that had been soaked in Nak for 15 minutes floated around for 30 minutes.

The legal effect lasted longer than expected.

Quilbian immediately prepared the talisman and put it into action.

I spent hours working face to face with goblins.

We evaluated two cadets who were to be transferred to the ‘special class’ and promoted one of them to the special class.

Nak was a child who ran wild and got angry.

Material that would make the visionaries very happy.

After the selection was completed, the three cadets who were designated as dropouts were brought in.

The three were robbed of their Nak by the goblin. Normally, they would consume the cadet’s body, but the goblin in charge burned the body, saying that he was fasting.

The corpses burned in the restaurant turned into white smoke and dispersed into the air.

Altera thought for a moment as she finished her work.

Isn’t it too worn out?

I feel no emotion as these poor kids are dying.

No, it seems sad… … .

It was something I knew but didn’t know.

Was I originally like this?

I think he was kind when he was outside.

outside.

My hometown that I miss every time I think about it.

A village where the strong scent of honey wafted through the fresh scent of grass. It was a simple village, so the boring daily life was repetitive, but I didn’t hate it.

And there… … .

“What was it?”

Altera stopped walking.

I tried to think of something, but I couldn’t remember.

No, what were you trying to think of in the first place?

At the moment I was pondering, a bell rang.

I guess I’m just tired and my head is dizzy.

When I think about what I’ve been through these past few days, my mind is ready to go on strike.

Now was the time to focus on Twella, not the outside world.

I will escape this place with the love of my destiny as my focal point.

As I was walking quickly, I soon found myself in front of the room.

The door opened.

I saw Quilbian curled up and asleep. I turned my gaze to the desk.

The magic book he had handed me was spread out.

He approached and closed the magic book.

“The little things may be off. Or maybe it’s something that has changed through effort.”

Judging from the fact that he was asleep from exhaustion, it seemed like he had not succeeded.

It doesn’t matter if Twella’s prophecy is wrong.

Because it’s a small thing.

Only major, deterministic events occur sequentially, but these small, everyday things can change at any time.

After bringing the blanket and covering me, I looked out the window. The sun was crouching down.

Night will come soon.

I’m getting tired. Even in places where there is no climate change, sleeping outdoors tires your body.

It was time to make room after kicking the books.

“… … an amulet.”

I can’t see the amulets I made for practice. I made about 350 of them, but where did they all go?

As I looked around, I saw a talisman lying under the desk. There were twenty at most?

Did you end up using up all the talismans by being stubborn?

Quilbian, who had covered himself with a blanket, stirred. He slowly opened his eyes and smiled.

“Are you here?”

“You look tired. Sleep more.”

“Yes, I’m going to do that. But before that.”

Quilbian stood up, holding the talisman.

“What are you going to do?”

“It’s homework. Now that I’ve finished it, I need to get it checked.”

“what?”

Quilbian has made a unique bond.

It was a form that was not found in the Sitpin Hwanghyung Law Book.

“At first, I had to give them magic spells one by one, but now I can do them all at once.”

At the same time, the nak inside Quilbian moved.
