Genius Wizard Takes Medicine [EN]: Chapter 1107

Whioooo!!!

He walks alone through the wide corridor at the outermost edge of the Nine Calamities’ entrance.

Wind howls through the broken glass, and bodily fluids flow down from beyond the collapsed partitions.

Mummies of the founders lie scattered, along with the marks of a fierce battle.

He passes through the desolate path he once walked with Maleon, not even taking a single step.

Pajik, pajik……!!

The moment he steps forward, black lightning erupts, and Lenox’s figure vanishes.

He naturally unfolds the art of controlling space simply by manipulating his magic power.

Pat!

Lenox’s steps, which had been traversing the partitions at an incredible speed, dyeing the Nine Calamities’ space black, abruptly halted.

A cracked and broken section of the outer wall made of transparent glass.

Beyond the half-destroyed outer wall, the dark sea is fully visible.

It’s practically the same as being directly exposed to the outer sea with his bare body.

“……”

Lenox silently gazed at the dark sea stretching far away.

The endless, empty universe. Beyond it, starlight faintly shines.

The darkness that drives people mad just by looking at it, agitating their minds and bodies.

However, Lenox’s inner self, as he looks at the outer sea, is endlessly calm and composed.

The scenery of that dark sea feels so familiar to Lenox.

As if he has finally returned to the place where he should be.

As if it should have been like this from the beginning.

Yes, Lenox has finally, now-

[……Master.]

In that moment, Lenox snapped out of his long, drawn-out reverie.

The fox spirit, pulling at his sleeve with its front paw from inside his clothes.

Davi spoke with an anxious expression.

[Don’t go.]

“……”

[You’re not going to go anywhere, are you?]

Though she didn’t show it, he could feel Davi’s voice trembling slightly.

Since the ascension ritual, Davi hadn’t said a word about Maleon.

She no longer even mentioned that Lenox should become an ascender.

She now understood how light that word was to her, and how heavy it was to Lenox.

The spirit was now understanding that fact, and regretting it.

“……”

Lenox looked at Davi with a blank expression, then stroked the spirit’s head.

Looking at the electronic spirit desperately rubbing its face against his hand, Lenox spoke.

“It’s okay.”

[But…….]

“It’s still okay.”

As Lenox said that, he slowly moved his hand towards Davi’s tail.

Now, grasping the twisted transcendence based on destruction, everything feels vividly clear.

Even the things that had troubled him before, he felt like he could easily accomplish now.

Pajik, pajik……!!!

The black lightning flowing from his fingertips swirled, then surged and flickered behind Davi’s back.

The black lightning flowing through the spirit’s ethereal body compressed behind Davi’s seventh tail, shaking.

Pajijik……!!!

The shape of a black-tinged eighth tail, taking form clumsily.

Even if it’s not complete, it would be enough to lay the groundwork for Davi.

“Because there might not be time later.”

Lenox gave an empty smile.

“It’s better to do it while I can.”

[Master…….]

The moment Davi called out to Lenox with a complex voice, a ferocious howl echoed from behind.

[Krrreureung……!!]

From beyond the partition, the mummy of a four-eyed black panther drags its tattered body and rises.

A gruesome and wretched sight, its head dangling after being blown apart by Maleon’s spell.

Behind it, the corpse of a bisected Qilin [a mythical hooved Chinese creature] approaches. The mummy of a Scaled Dragonkin with its back skin split open.

The mummies of the founders, defeated by Maleon, form a group and advance.

“Maleon has redistributed the thoughts he absorbed back to them.”

Lenox muttered.

Maleon was possessed by Seonjong due to the thoughts he absorbed by killing the mummies.

Is he now redistributing the absorbed thoughts back to the mummies to make them move?

A legion of the undead that won’t die even if their bodies are torn and crushed.

However, Lenox did not hesitate even when seeing the encroaching invasion domain that was engulfing all directions.

“Let’s go.”

Jjiwoo woong!!!!

The moment he stepped forward, the black-tinged halo behind his back rotated violently.

The lightning erupting from Lenox’s entire body turned into black lightning, illuminating the surroundings in black.

Creation-type Unique Magic

Nature Transformation: Heaven’s Fall

[Evil Thunder]

A wave of black-tinged lightning was unleashed, sweeping away the charging mummies.

Ppeoeoeoeong!!!!

[Grrrreureureuk!!!]

[No……!! Die……!!]

[Aaaaaaak!!!]

Sharp black lines were etched onto the Qilin’s entire body, causing it to explode and split into pieces.

The lightning that fell on the Scaled Dragonkin’s head pierced through its hard scales like paper.

The invasion domain that was encroaching between the partitions was erased and extinguished each time black lightning struck.

The mummies cried out, scattering bodily fluids, and black light flickered incessantly above them.

Kwagwagwagwa!!!

[Ppuuuu, uuu-!!!]

[Kyaaaaak!!]

[Keok, keoeok, human……!!!]

A hand made of black lightning grabbed an elephant’s head and crushed it.

The lightning, scattering like feathers, tore apart the wings of a flying thunderbird.

It tore off the fins of a catfish and burned and pulled out the tail of a mermaid.

Each time he lightly gestured, black lines were etched into the air and exploded, and black lightning tore through space, setting the Nine Calamities ablaze.

Kwang!!

Woodudeudeuk!!!

He accelerated through the mummies writhing in pain from all directions.

He accelerated, nonchalantly leaping through the demonic realm where the mummies of the long-lived species and the true-blooded species were rampaging.

It was as if the memories of struggling to break through the Nine Calamities with Maleon were a lie.

As if painting over and erasing the previous journey, the moment he completely covered the space of the Nine Calamities with dark magic power.

[Invasion Rate 101%]

Hwaak!!

Lenox stood once again before a huge hollow with ten pipes hanging from it.

A basin placed under the pipes, and a huge throne made of stacked mummy corpses.

The ascender Maleon Gnosis, waiting for him from the other side of the void.

“……Mage.”

Gooooooo!!!!

The moment Lenox, who had silently raised his gaze, and the silver dragon’s gazes met.

Seonjong asked as if he couldn’t believe it.

“What… what have you become?”

“……”

Lenox didn’t answer and moved his feet.

Huuk!!

Before Seonjong could react, he passed him and landed behind the broken partition.

The figure of Oliviera, slumped down below the partition with a spear piercing her shoulder.

Lenox, who had been silently looking at her with black eyes, opened his mouth.

“Oliviera.”

[…….]

She hasn’t lost consciousness yet, but she’s in a state that’s as close to it as possible.

Lenox turned his gaze towards the spearhead stuck in her shoulder.

A wretched sight, pierced and penetrated between the partitions. Blood was flowing down from her shoulder, dyeing her robe red.

With a blank expression, Lenox rotated his magic power and reached out his hand towards the spear shaft.

Pajik!!

The moment Lenox’s hand grasped the spear, sharp black lightning wrapped around the spear shaft and flickered.

The spear shaft that had pierced Oliviera was dismantled and disappeared on the spot.

At the same time, her figure, which had been pierced by the spear shaft, lost its balance and tilted forward.

Tak!!

The moment Lenox supported her with one arm, Oliviera turned her gaze with difficulty.

[Gyeon, roe…….]

Oliviera’s telepathy faintly echoed.

Lenox lowered his head and met her gaze.

“I’m listening.”

[Foolish, you…….]

The words she uttered from behind her veil were cut off weakly.

A whisper that was so unclear that even the telepathy that conveyed her will was slurred.

[Who, would use such a method…… you.]

“……”

Since they were together in Nivek’s toxic domain, she must have immediately understood what means Lenox had used.

Oliviera stirred with difficulty, whispering words that were hard to understand.

[The finish, is enough…… meaningless…….]

“That’s right.”

However, Lenox understood Oliviera’s words and answered as if it were natural.

“Maybe you alone would have been enough to finish the project. I also know that you stayed here because you wanted that.”

He hears the unspoken facts, understands the unexpressed emotions, and responds.

Lenox’s answer, which ignores the order of cause and effect and goes ahead of the timeline.

[……You.]

Oliviera, feeling a fragment of transcendence from Lenox’s answer, raised her gaze with a start.

The mage standing before her now is, in the truest sense-

“This situation might not have been what you wanted.”

Lenox said that and reached out his hand towards Oliviera’s shoulder.

“Even so, I will not make what we did meaningless.”

Pajijik……!!!

The black lightning that erupted from his fingertips was shaved away, revealing a pure white aura within.

The function of detachment that Myung had shown and taught Lenox.

By shaving away the transformed magic power to the extreme, only the completely opposite pure power remains.

The moment Lenox poured it into Oliviera’s shoulder without touching it directly.

Paat……!!

The wound that had pierced Oliviera’s shoulder began to heal little by little in real time.

[…….]

At the same time, her energy slowly filled her body, and her body tilted forward.

The consciousness that had been holding on beyond its limits, weakened as the tension was released with the recovery of her body.

Lenox, who had silently laid Oliviera back in her place, spoke.

“From now on, I’ll take care of it.”

Chwarararak!!

The body of the unconscious Oliviera was engulfed in the blood dripping from the end of the pipe.

A blood magic circle unfolded around her, forcibly teleporting Oliviera’s body.

Paat!!!

The presence of Oliviera Ron Maze, who had disappeared from the space of the Nine Calamities in an instant.

Looking at the place where she had left, Lenox slowly stood up, and at that moment.

“Amazing.”

A deep, dragon-like voice echoed from behind Lenox.

“You sent that woman back from the Nine Calamities first.”

“I temporarily stopped the action of the true blood flowing in Oliviera’s body.”

Lenox said that and turned around.

“Complex catalysts like blood are originally difficult to interfere with, but it’s not impossible now.”

A giant with a dragon’s head, covered in dazzling silver scales, was waiting for him with his arms crossed.

The aura of his muscular upper body, pulsating and throbbing, possessed an unparalleled domineering force.

However, Lenox calmly continued his explanation even when facing Maleon.

“The blood contract expels those who do not possess true blood, so she should have safely returned to Kundara by now.”

“That’s not what I wanted to ask.”

The transcendent dwelling in Maleon’s body laughed.

“She was a very capable sorceress. Wouldn’t it be better to fight with her help?”

“No. It should have been like this from the beginning.”

Lenox closed his eyes.

“It was something I should have done alone from the beginning. So, even now…….”

Pajik!!

Black lightning compressed in Lenox’s hand and turned into a black line.

Lenox, who had grasped the black line and lowered his gaze, spoke quietly.

“I’ll have to end it all here.”

However, Maleon’s body did not respond to those words.

Instead, he simply began to walk slowly with a smile that was impossible to read.

“Kundara was a city created by using the lifespan of the long-lived species as its power source to avoid its promised destruction.”

Seonjong said as he walked past Lenox.

“Conversely, the Nine Calamities was a graveyard where the deaths of the long-lived species were buried, and an outpost created outside the outer sea.”

“……”

“Just as life and death will one day meet on a single timeline, there is a strong attraction between Kundara and the Nine Calamities.”

Tak.

Maleon, who had stopped walking at the end of the partition, turned his head.

“The two spaces attracting each other and floating in the outer sea, escaping the world. That is the true nature of the Outer Calamity that Kundara pursued.”

The life of Kundara and the death of the Nine Calamities.

The very concept of life and death attracting each other was the Outer Calamity that Kundara was pursuing.

It was, in the truest sense, the answer of the long-lived species to stand outside of destruction.

Lenox, who had moved his steps in the opposite direction of Maleon, spoke.

“That’s why Kundara was being drawn to the Nine Calamities and ascending.”

Just as life moves towards death the moment it is born.

Life is constantly moving and changing, but death does not move.

That is why, despite the overwhelming difference in mass between Kundara and the Nine Calamities, Kundara was being drawn to the much smaller Nine Calamities.

“Do you believe it’s a feasible plan?”

“I used to.”

Seonjong said as he walked alongside Lenox.

“But I realized that there was a more fundamental answer. I felt the possibility of applying the principle that divides life and death to my own path of enlightenment.”

“……”

“That’s why ‘I’ was able to gain the qualifications and become an ascender by overcoming the cataclysm of death.”

Maleon, who had slowly turned around, spoke with both heads at the same time.

“And that would be the same for you as well.”

“……”

“You promised your own destruction and gained a status comparable to ascension. You have truly realized the words you spoke to me like an absurd threat.”

Seonjong looked at Lenox, who was scattering black magic power from his entire body, as if he were dazzled.

“How amazing it is that a mere human has reached the same point as me. Just that alone makes me realize the greatness of the talent within you.”

He was truly in awe of Lenox, who had awakened the senses of an ascender through the meaning of the side effects of drinking the ascension elixir and presupposing death.

He recognized that the fact that he had awakened a similar meaning through the destruction that had fallen upon his own body, without gaining the spells or achievements of an ascender, was a miracle that proved Lenox’s talent and transcendence.

“Just as Kaise Bajur did, your existence is also nothing short of a miracle born before the cause and effect of destruction.”

Maleon closed his eyes and raised his fist, and a powerful silver heat source began to bloom in his hand.

Uuuuuuung!!!!

The starlight that flickered brilliantly in the dragon’s hand.

The essence of the Holy Lotus Eight Extremes Style, which is impossible to handle properly unless it is the soul and will of Maleon himself.

“If even this opportunity to choose is a fate arranged for me, then I must gladly accept it.”

Maleon, who had turned slowly towards Lenox with the starlight in his hand, spoke.

“That will be enough for the meaning that Kundara, which will return to a handful of dust, will leave behind.”

“You’re grandly putting it in a roundabout way, saying that you’re debating which one to take, Kaise or my body.”

Lenox gave a dark smile.

“The opportunity to choose is not a fate given from the heavens. It’s just the result of what you’ve brought about with your own hands.”

“That’s true.”

Seonjong neither affirmed nor denied those words.

He simply stood with his arms slowly spread out and slowly increased his magic power.

The silver dragon, who had been staring intently at Lenox as if to remember his face, smiled.

“Then, from now on, shall we savor and confirm your existence without leaving anything behind?”

Kugugugugu!!!!

The steps of the two people, who had been walking in a circle at a distance, stopped at the same time.

The air, growing cold and rapidly intensifying.

The coldness, as if standing on a knife’s edge, that only transcendents facing a final battle can feel.

In the atmosphere that had risen sharply as if it would explode at any moment, the moment Maleon was about to move.

“Wait a moment.”

Lenox raised his hand.

“It’s not time yet.”

“……What?”

“4 seconds, 3 seconds, 2 seconds.”

Lenox nodded, folding his fingers.

“Now.”

Kwaaaaang!!!

The ground where the two were standing shook violently and began to fluctuate.

The entire space of the Nine Calamities twisted and vibrated up and down as if it would break.

“This is…….”

Kugugugugu!!!!

When he turned his gaze, he could see stars rising from outside the outer sea.

A scene where the starlight, stretched out like dazzling lines of light, seemed to accelerate upwards.

However, Seonjong soon realized that the scenery outside was not rising.

The Nine Calamities was falling at an incredibly fast speed, so much so that it felt that way.

Only then did Seonjong turn to look at Lenox, scattering a chilling aura.

“What have you done?”

“The reason why this Nine Calamities can stay outside the outer sea is because it orbits like a satellite, offsetting the gravity of the star with centrifugal force.”

Lenox spoke calmly.

“So, I covered the entire Nine Calamities with my magic power and ‘dismantled’ the centrifugal force that was on the Nine Calamities.”

“……”

“It’s something I can’t do twice, but if I don’t do this, Kundara will completely escape outside the outer sea.”

Kwaaaaaaaa!!!

The space station that had been floating outside the outer sea fell towards the planet that was unfolding beneath it.

Through the shadows of the star where the Outer Calamity City was hidden, towards the vicinity of the central front line located in the center of the continent.

As it entered the atmosphere, its speed increased, and the outer walls of the Nine Calamities caught fire and blazed.

“It’s like riding on a meteorite that’s increasing its speed as it falls into the middle of the continent.”

Lenox laughed in the hellscape that was increasing in heat as it fell at an incredible speed.

“It’s a perfect stage for the battlefield that will determine the end of the Outer Calamity City. Shall we begin?”

Huuk-

There was no answer.

The moment Seonjong, who had raised his magic power, rotated the starlight with a chilling expression and accelerated in the turbulent battlefield.

The black lightning that blazed in Lenox’s hand pierced through the dragon’s massive body at an incredible speed and exploded.
