Genius Wizard Takes Medicine [EN]: Chapter 1024

A post with a title that simultaneously mentioned Thousand and Kyonroe’s magnetic domains and even predicted the outcome of their second battle. As expected from a title that grabbed attention at first glance, the number of comments was also overwhelming compared to other posts. Clarice, who had been holding the mouse, turned her gaze the moment Dabi clicked on the post. “Let’s just take a quick look at the content. We have some time anyway, right?” Next to Lenok, who was at a loss for words, Clarice’s eyes sparkled. “Looking at the order the post was clicked, it seems like Virgil was also about to look at this post but stopped.” “Ahem…!!” Lenok, seeing the vampire’s reaction, who couldn’t hide his embarrassment, smiled wryly and stepped back. “Do as you please. We can’t start working until Oliviera returns anyway.” “We’ll just look at it quickly and be done, right?” Clarice scrolled down as if she had been waiting for this, and Virgil took a step closer. Lenok, who had secretly pulled Dabi into his arms and stepped back, looked at the main text displayed on the monitor. [Title: Final Analysis of Thousand’s Magnetic Domain, the ‘Flame Flower’ in Full Bloom. Prediction of the Second Battle Result with Kyonroe’s Magnetic Domain.] The main text below the title was a long array of text, photos, and videos. Even though it used a clean and small font for easy reading, the length of the content was considerable. However, Lenok’s gaze was fixed on the link address written right below the title. =Before reading the post, it is recommended to read the analysis table about Thousand’s domain that someone else wrote before. (Link: Evan Martinez’s Magnetic Domain Deployment, commonly known as ‘Flame Flower’ 3rd Analysis Table) “……” It was the title of a post he had seen once before. The author also didn’t seem inclined to give a long explanation and immediately summarized the content. =To summarize the link’s content, Thousand’s magnetic domain, commonly known as ‘Flame Flower,’ is a power that generates nuclear fusion using six petals as magic cores. =Thousand has the ability to create external magic cores, and by adding barrier magic and magic cores, he has dramatically increased the scale of his domain. =The key is that the [full bloom] form of the Flame Flower, which was not seen during the battle with Kyonroe, was revealed for the first time in the battle with the Joint Art User. A video link right below the text. The image of the Flame Flower engulfing the entire gate city and the pillars of fire connecting the ground and the sky as it fully bloomed. Even though the video was taken from far away, where the city was visible at the edge of the horizon, the scale and size were truly overwhelming. “……This is.” Even Clarice, who was seeing the video for the first time, had a slight change in her complexion. =The power reminiscent of nuclear fusion is impressive, but what should be noted is its persistence. =It is still burning above the gate city, more than 90 hours after the battle with the Joint Art User ended. Photo attached. =The power did not disappear even after the domain was withdrawn. The flames remain even though Thousand has left the city. =These two phenomena suggest that Thousand’s domain is a power that is not bound by time. Clarice with an extremely focused expression, and Virgil staring at the monitor with a stiff face. Even Dabi’s reaction, wriggling intensely in his arms every time he looked at the post. The content of the post continued below the video. =The time it took for the Flame Flower to fully bloom after the battle began was at least 40 minutes. =Considering the skill and techniques of the Joint Art User, enduring for 40 minutes with the domain deployed is practically suicidal. =Since he deployed the domain with such unfavorable restrictions, it is understandable that he created flames that are free from the constraints of time. “……” The office had become quiet. Perhaps they had intuitively realized that the content of the post was much more serious than they had thought. Clarice lowered the post silently with a blank face. =There are hardly any transcendents who have openly revealed the appearance and abilities of their magnetic domains like this recently. =Considering that it was the same during the battle with Kyonroe, it can be assumed that it is part of the conditions for deploying the domain. =Through this, we can see that Thousand is a very skilled user of Geass [a type of magical power]. It may be one of the reasons why he inherited the barrier magic of Jintun. =Personally, I would like to talk about Thousand’s talent and confidence that make this possible, but since that part has been analyzed a lot, I would like to talk about something else. =By analyzing the fully bloomed form of the Flame Flower, we can also infer the abilities of the magnetic domain that Kyonroe deployed during the battle. “……Ban.” Virgil glanced at Lenok with a stiff expression. “Are you alright?” “Is it now that you ask?” Lenok chuckled. “Turn the page. I want to see what it says since we’ve come this far.” “……Okay.” Clarice scrolled down the post with a tense expression. =Although a detailed analysis was not possible at the time of the battle between Thousand and Kyonroe, the battle process at that time is being roughly interpreted through consultations with various magic towers. =Kyonroe deployed his magnetic domain just before the Flame Flower fully bloomed. He collided his domain with it, splitting the Flame Flower. =The deployment and withdrawal of the domain were so fast that no records were left, but now that we have seen the full bloom of the Flame Flower, we can draw a different conclusion. =That is, Kyonroe’s magnetic domain is dealing with ‘time’ in a form completely opposite to Thousand’s magnetic domain. [Master.] At that moment, Dabi’s quiet telepathy echoed in Lenok’s arms. [Should I just wipe them all out now?] “……” A dispassionate whisper that was hard to hear from the always lively spirit. Does that mean Dabi also thinks that this post might be dangerous? [I can paralyze almost 40% of the Deep Web’s network in about three days.] Dabi said. [In the meantime, I’ll get the location coordinates of all the members who wrote the posts.] The attitude of the electronic spirit, who reacts more sensitively than Lenok himself to matters involving Lenok’s safety. The intense, even eerie sense of incongruity that Lenok sometimes felt from Dabi. But even knowing that, Lenok stroked Dabi’s head and looked at the post. The post was heading towards the conclusion after a long introduction and main body. =In conclusion, I am assuming that the ability of Kyonroe’s magnetic domain is the ‘compression’ of time. =By compressing the time required for the deployment and withdrawal of the magnetic domain to the limit, he pours out all the firepower that would be unleashed during the domain’s maintenance in a comma-unit of time. =If he made the domain itself a momentary ‘lightning’ on the condition of giving up the construction of the battlefield through the domain, the alteration of the environment, and the advantage of the situation, it would be understandable. =If that is the case, the reason why Kyonroe’s magnetic domain has not been known at all until now, and the reason why all the transcendents who saw the domain died, can all be explained. =The reason why he used the domain just before the Flame Flower fully bloomed is probably because he realized that Thousand’s magnetic domain is a power that is in direct opposition to his own. “……” Clarice wiped the sweat from her hands and grabbed the mouse again. The reason why this author wrote such a grand analysis. The conclusion comparing the superiority between Kyonroe and Thousand would probably be written in the next phrase. If Lenok didn’t say anything, she would want to check the content until the end. Clarice, who took a slow breath, slowly scrolled down the post. =Based on the analysis so far, we can conclude whether Kyonroe’s magnetic domain can win against Thousand’s Flame Flower when it fully blooms. =I have written various analyses and calculation formulas for this, but it seems that I will not be able to upload them due to insufficient upload capacity. =In conclusion, I think Kyonroe will win the second battle as well. “……Huh?” Clarice couldn’t help but open her mouth at the content of the post that ended with those words. She hurriedly turned the mouse and scanned the post again, but there was no basis or process for the conclusion anywhere. Only countless abusive comments were plastered below the post. └How the hell is this a prediction for the second battle? └Is this guy really crazy? Where’s the conclusion? └I was reading it carefully, but now I’m wasting my time;; └How did such a troll get into the diamond-tier board? Thousands of comments, enraged by the sudden conclusion, were criticizing the author. However, there were also those who pointed out noteworthy parts of the main text and discussed them. └The conclusion is strange, but the analysis process is plausible. It’s not a post to just skim over. └Especially the part predicting Kyonroe’s magnetic domain is very sharp. └Compression of domain deployment time. I’ve never imagined that before. That’s giving up the advantages of the magnetic domain itself. └Since he set such conditions, the power of the domain itself would be dramatically increased. Analysis of Kyonroe’s domain. Comments evaluating new opinions that were consistent but had not been considered before. └Is the claim that he won the domain’s compatibility battle because it is a power opposite to Thousand’s domain? That’s also quite novel. └I don’t even know if it’s possible to stretch and shrink the source image like that in the first place. Is it even possible? └You can ask the guys who died after being hit by Kyonroe’s domain? └Are you all idiots here? If the analysis is true, the guys who died after being hit by Kyonroe wouldn’t have even seen the domain. Among them, there were quite a few who knew the operating principles of the magnetic domain or the core concepts in detail. It was proof that high-level transcendents who actually knew how to handle domains were also watching this community. However, even those comments could not completely replace the bewilderment that Clarice had just felt. The expression of the long-lived species, who had been staring blankly at the post, was tinged with anger beyond confusion. “No, what do you mean there’s not enough space to write…!! Are you kidding me?!!” “Clarice Richelieu.” Lenok looked down at her with a pathetic gaze. “Didn’t you just say that it was strange to get so worked up over such a simple topic?” “……” Lenok sighed and stretched his back, leaving Clarice, who had become speechless. “It’s an interesting post. It has plausible grounds, rather than just a simple comparison.” “It’s clear that the author himself is a very knowledgeable expert on magnetic domains.” Virgil added with a stiff expression. “Adding Geass or barrier magic to the domain, and estimating the specific principles and content, are not things that an ordinary mage can think of.” “Well. I don’t know how many mages with this kind of insight are left on the continent……” Reaching level 8 meant breaking through and transcending the system one had learned, becoming a grand master who pioneered a new path. Naturally, such a feat was a privilege granted only to a very small number of transcendents throughout the entire continent. Moreover, if you were to narrow down the experts who had reached level 8 and were proficient in magic and magnetic domains, the number would decrease rapidly. “Ban. Does your acknowledgment of this author’s insight mean that this analysis is true?” Virgil asked cautiously, watching Lenok’s expression. “If you’ve been hiding the abilities of your domain, there wouldn’t be any reason to let it be revealed like this.” It wasn’t for nothing that Virgil was reluctant to see this post in front of Lenok. If the content of this post was true, and Lenok acknowledged it, Virgil would become someone who had directly heard about Lenok’s domain. And Lenok knew that Virgil was someone who would not recklessly take on such risks or responsibilities. “If, if you want to hide your domain, even now-” “Don’t worry.” Lenok smiled and leaned his arm on the sofa. “There’s nothing wrong with the analysis, but it was impossible to draw a conclusion from that from the beginning.” “The conclusion is wrong?” “I acknowledge that he has a broad knowledge and a good eye…….” Lenok tilted his head back and chuckled. “Inferences based on the past cannot reach my origin.” “……” The inference itself was sharp, but the opponent did not know the essence of the Eight-Linked Thunder Logic Dome (八連雷理穹) [a specific type of magical domain] and drew a conclusion. The last piece of the puzzle that could never be solved unless one understood Lenok’s source image. But even so, Lenok acknowledged that the opponent’s insight was at a very high level. In fact, among the contents explained in the analysis, there were parts that accurately grasped the way Lenok used his domain. “Since he regarded the process as the result, I think there might be a part where I can sympathize with him.” “I have no idea what you’re talking about……” Virgil sighed and shook his head. “Anyway, does that mean we don’t need to take any action regarding that post?” “Even if all the analysis in that post was correct, I wouldn’t have done anything.” Lenok shook his head. “If I were to step in, it would be like advertising that the analysis is true.” “That’s……” “It seems like Oliviera has returned. Let’s move.” A strong presence that could not be hidden was felt from beyond the magic detection. If Oliviera was returning to headquarters after finishing her business, it would be the right time to move to the lab right now. However, even at Lenok’s words, Clarice was sitting in front of the monitor, letting out a deep groan. “Huuuum……” “Clarice Richelieu. Are you still looking at the conclusion of the analysis?” “No, rather than that…….” Clarice, who had been looking at the monitor, glanced at Lenok. “There are a lot of interesting opinions in the comments too, can’t I look at them a little more?” “……” The long-lived species, who had tasted the community’s reaction a few times, had lost patience in an instant. Lenok, who had given up on persuading her, pulled Clarice away from the monitor.
