Genius Wizard Takes Medicine [EN]: Chapter 1108

The Nine Calamities’ space-time, ablaze and falling.

The entire transparent space station accelerates, turning a fiery red.

The end of the Nine Calamities falls from thousands of kilometers above, towards the heart of the continent.

Inside the massive cavity leading to the Ten Gates, two sorcerers clashed at tremendous speed.

KWA-AAANG!!!

Malleon and Lenox’s figures collide, spinning with the shattered bulkhead between them.

The moment the magic power flowing through the two sorcerers’ bodies pulsed fiercely with different colors.

With a tearing sound that seemed to grind space, shockwaves erupted in rapid succession, dozens of times over.

DRRRRRRRRR!!!

“Fortify!!!!!!”

The moment Seonjong, clutching starlight, stomped his foot, a circular ripple spread out from him.

Primal Magic: Star Union Eight Extremes Style

Seventh Form – Outer Law

[Starfall Retention Sea]

At the same time, a giant celestial sphere appeared above Malleon’s head, rotating and accelerating with stars within.

It unleashed a bombardment of immense heat towards Lenox.

KU-GWA-GWA-GWA-GWA!!!!!!

Silvery waves surged endlessly, flashing wildly through the inner walls of the Nine Calamities.

The heat, exceeding its limits, melted both the inner and outer walls of the massive station, revealing a sky engulfed in flames.

At the center of the starfall’s epicenter, Lenox lowered his stance, rotating a black halo.

ZZI-YUUUUUUUNG……!!!!

The moment the distorted halo rotated violently, Lenox’s body moved explosively from its position.

A bizarre acceleration without even a hint of a prelude, as if Lenox’s body was being forcibly pushed up from its spot.

TUR-TUR-TUR-TUNG!!!

Evading the exploding starfall, Lenox’s figure flickered, disappearing and reappearing over dozens of meters.

However, Seonjong did not miss Lenox, who was accelerating at an incredible speed, and his eyes flashed.

“Got you……!!”

The gap where Lenox, shrouded in a black halo, appeared across space, a gap that wasn’t even a moment.

He seized that instant with the transcendent perception of an Ascendant [a being who has reached a higher plane of existence], stretching it out endlessly.

He grabbed Lenox by the scruff of his neck and slammed him down.

KWA-AAANG!!!!

With immense pressure that could burst even a Dragonkin’s tough body like a balloon, Lenox’s body was pierced and crushed.

However, Malleon did not stop, and while still holding Lenox by the neck, he chanted Primal Magic with all his might.

Eighth Form – Outer Law

Extinction Star Cycle

OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

The starlight flowing through Malleon’s entire body gathered at one point, emitting an immense light.

Converting the Dragonkin’s unique magic power into a heat source, concentrating and exploding it in his hand at point-blank range.

[Heavenly Harm Star Collection]

BBEO-EO-EO-EONG!!!!!

A silver pillar of fire exploded from Malleon’s hand, piercing through the outer wall of the Nine Calamities and soaring upwards.

The Ascendant’s firepower, shattering and piercing through the Nine Calamities, which had remained intact despite all sorts of battles and impacts.

However, Seonjong was not satisfied even after seeing the devastation he had unleashed.

The moment Seonjong, with a chillingly hardened expression, turned his body roughly.

Black lines, rippling like ink, struck his face like a slash.

Creation-Type Unique Magic

Nature Transformation: Heaven Low

[Black Solution: Direct Extremity]

CHWAA-AAK!!

A black line, piercing through scales and slashing diagonally, as if cutting across the sharp dragon’s head.

The moment Seonjong recognized the Direct Extremity, which was tearing through space at an incredible speed that made reaction impossible.

The compression of the black line embedded in the silver dragon’s face was released, and dozens of black lightning bolts contained within exploded simultaneously.

KWA-AAANG!!!!

“……!!!”

Blackened lightning surged, and Malleon’s massive body lost its balance and was pushed back.

The Ascendant’s body faltered at the barrage of black lightning that slashed and exploded at the point of impact.

Then, dozens of black lines flashed like slashes and plunged into Malleon’s entire body.

[Rampage: Black Rhythm]

KA-GA-GA-GA-GAK!!!!

The black lines, created by compressing black lightning, dug sharply into the Dragonkin’s body.

They exploded in rapid succession, releasing black lightning with a time difference close to a moment.

Each time, the Dragonkin’s scales and flesh could not withstand it, tearing apart, shattering, and disappearing.

However, while continuing to stagger and be pushed back, Seonjong endured all the slashes with his bare body and moved forward.

PEO-BEO-BEO-BEO-BUNG!!!

A flurry of slashes made of black lines. Immediately after, the explosion of black lightning released as the compression was released.

The moment he walked forward, enduring the extreme barrage of slashes, explosions, and pulverizations.

Starlight rotated fiercely in Malleon’s hand, sweeping forward as a barrage of heat.

[Melting Star Cannon]

KWA-AA-AA-AA-AA!!!!

Black lightning and silver starlight mixed and surged chaotically from all directions.

Waves of heat and storms of magic power raged alternately, burning and melting space-time.

The collision of Primal Magic, imbued with ancient mysteries, and Creation Magic, standing at the end of Heaven Low [a type of magic].

The moment the two magics, standing at the apex and nadir of each system, rotated, devouring each other’s mysteries.

“I’ve faced countless transcendents and monsters, but…”

A low voice echoed from within the starlight that filled all directions.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve faced a transcendent with such pure physical prowess.”

HWAAK!!

Pushing through the starlight as hot as hellfire, Lenox walked out, scattering black glares.

The distorted black ring of light behind his back ceaselessly rotated, completely extinguishing the heat that poured out.

Standing before Malleon, who was looking at him, Lenox dusted off his hands with a blank expression and said.

“There seems to be no limit to both your physical body and your techniques. Does the upper limit of your abilities not exist at all?”

Malleon Gnosis is not a physical ability user, but a great sorcerer who wields ancient Primal Magic.

However, the Dragonkin’s astonishing physical abilities and regenerative powers alone provide him with combat power comparable to that of an equal warrior.

Since Malleon himself is a sorcerer specialized in combat, and with Seonjong’s combat experience added, a monster that has transcended limits in both offense and defense was born.

“You’re not the one to talk, are you?”

However, Seonjong did not seem to agree with Lenox’s words, and he let out a hollow smile.

“Have you already forgotten who the master of this body was looking at when he fell into the abyss?”

“…….”

“But certainly, the ‘magic’ rotating behind you is something that can only be described as special. It’s a miracle that presupposes destruction, so I thought it would completely ignore the laws of magic, but…”

The dragon’s eyes sank deeply, as if piercing through the distorted halo.

“Did you create a concept that dismantles and destroys everything, regardless of matter, techniques, or laws, with magic? There’s a limit to how much talent one can have.”

Just by briefly clashing techniques with Lenox, Seonjong immediately recognized the principle of the Ouroboros [a symbol of a snake eating its own tail, representing infinity and cyclicality].

The destructive power that dismantles and grinds everything without interpreting or understanding it.

He understood that this was how Lenox was continuing his battle with him on equal terms.

It dismantles Malleon’s techniques and erases the magic power and converted heat that Malleon emits.

It also ‘dismantles’ the physical shock and recoil that occur when colliding with the Dragonkin’s body by rotating the Ouroboros.

“You’re essentially erasing all the damage inflicted on you with that one magic. But-”

Seonjong turned his hollow gaze and stared at Lenox.

“Even with such an astonishing power, you use your techniques as if you were wielding a sword. Or rather, is that why you are controlling an uncontrollable power?”

“…….”

He compresses black lightning to create black lines and shoots them like slashes at the target.

Since it accelerates by leaping through space-time at the same time as the chant, it is virtually a sure-hit technique.

However, Seonjong saw that such a method of use was simple compared to the complex principle of the Ouroboros.

He had discerned that it was proof that Lenox had not yet completely controlled the transformed black lightning.

“You’ve grasped transcendence, but it’s not properly refined. How long do you think you can hold out like that in this battlefield?”

KU-GU-GU-GU-GU!!!!!

Even at this moment, the scenery outside changes every moment and stretches out at an incredible speed.

The flames attached to the outer wall extend their heat to the battlefield where Lenox and Malleon are standing, forming an anoxic zone where breathing is impossible.

In an extreme environment where life cannot survive for even a moment, Lenox and Malleon are using their techniques to hold each other in place.

“This is a battlefield you created, and a calamity you brought upon yourself.”

Malleon said, spreading his arms wide as if to show off.

“At this rate, your corpse will burn and evaporate before it even reaches the ground. You’ve chosen a self-defeating move.”

“I never intended to leave the Nine Calamities intact outside the Outer Sea from the beginning.”

Lenox said, kneeling on one knee and lowering his stance.

At the same time as he lightly touched both wrists with his fingers, black blood flowed from below his wrists.

“The worst-case scenario in this situation is Kundara being dragged out of the Outer Sea. To prevent that, I had to change the location of the Nine Calamities in advance.”

Lenox said, staring at the black blood dripping from his hands.

“From the moment I manipulated the Nine Calamities to fall, Kundara will not escape outside the Outer Sea. And…”

Lenox, who had grasped the blood flowing from his fingers with one hand, rose from his spot.

He said, meeting the hollow gaze of Malleon.

“No matter how this fight ends, my end is already decided.”

“…….”

He had only temporarily suppressed it with the power of the Compendium [a magical artifact], but he had not completely stopped the toxicity of the elixir.

Even at this moment, the poison contained in the elixir is corroding Lenox’s body.

The sensation in his fingertips disappears, and the blood in his entire body circulates coldly.

A chilling sensation of his whole body growing hollow and cold, closer to a corpse than a living human.

If it were any other sorcerer, the poison would have already spread to their bone marrow, driving them mad and killing them.

Only Lenox’s unwavering consciousness remains, moving this body.

As he obtained the power of destruction by mortgaging his remaining time, Lenox’s time was also running out.

That is why Lenox wanted to lead the two of them to a battlefield where a conclusion was inevitable, before his given time ran out.

“You are trying to save Kundara, continue Malleon’s plan, and even bring this to a conclusion at this moment.”

Seonjong said quietly, as if savoring the words he had uttered.

“You do not choose to take something. Instead, you try to embrace all those moments under your own causality.”

“…….”

“Surely, that is the result of the transcendent talent that shook Malleon Gnosis.”

Malleon’s pupils flashed with unparalleled sharpness.

“The answer you seek is right there.”

Even in the face of destruction, Lenox does not go mad or change.

Even while embracing the death that is consuming his entire body, he moves towards the end with detachment.

Seonjong realized that the path he was pursuing was fully contained in the unchanging actions of the magician, even as he faced his end.

All of these things that Lenox had decided and done were part of the answer he was drawing.

“A transcendent who has gained qualification is like an existence that represents their own answer.”

Seonjong slowly clasped his hands together in the burning space-time of the Nine Calamities.

“This must be the very moment when your decision and will are connected to your answer.”

“…….”

At the same time as those words, Malleon’s presence began to swell gradually.

Magic power exploded from within him, filling space-time beyond measure.

In the storm of magic power that was scattering fiercely, Seonjong said quietly.

“Then I must see what kind of scenery your fundamental mind is drawing.”

KU-GWA-GWA-GWA-GWA-GWA!!!!!!

The magic power that spread out from Malleon gathered from all directions, transforming into a giant starlight.

Hundreds of starlights spread beyond Malleon’s surroundings, reaching beyond the atmosphere outside the Nine Calamities.

A beautiful meteor shower where countless starlights surged around the Nine Calamities, which were falling at an incredible speed.

It was the chant that the 9th level Ascendant was performing by concentrating his mind and forming hand seals.

The technique that would follow would surely be a strike that would change the world.

However, even after seeing that, Lenox did not restrain or interfere with Malleon.

He only gripped the black halo that had appeared before his eyes and strongly pulled up his magic power.

“You’re not the only one with a technique that requires time.”

He grips the distorted halo and operates his magic power with all his might.

Blackened lightning extended from under Lenox’s feet, encroaching on the surrounding space-time.

JJE-JJE-JJE-JJE-JJE-JJE-JJEK!!!!

The black lines spread across the battlefield of the Nine Calamities, darkening all directions.

Not a colorless ripple that spreads consciousness and covers space-time, but a destructive resonance that grinds the surroundings with magic power.

From the moment he accepted corruption on the premise of destruction, the Kaleidoscope [a magical ability] cannot be used properly.

Lenox’s Kaleidoscope is the power to reflect the possibilities of the future that has not yet come.

Therefore, he cannot use the point of divergence of corruption, which eliminates the future itself, at the same time as another Kaleidoscope.

However, it is precisely because it is so twisted that there is a point of divergence that Lenox can draw from within.

In the Kaleidoscope that reflects infinite possibilities and points of divergence, the heretical mind that symbolizes the path that Lenox did not take.

The power of a madman who kills the undying, and as a harmless apostle who does not serve any god-

PA-AA-AA-AA-AAT!!!!!

The minds of the two sorcerers, who project and alter the world, swirl in the abyss of the Nine Calamities.

Centered on Malleon’s massive body, beautiful starlight and melodies began to play, adjusting the world.

Thousands of meteor showers falling from the atmosphere embraced the falling Nine Calamities, drawing a dazzling silver celestial sphere.

“Phenomenon of Ideological War, Manifest.”

Malleon, who had clasped his hands together, opened his eyes.

“Galaxy Dragon Star Group.”

KKI-GI-GI-GI-GIK!!!!

Almost at the same time, Lenox’s chant ended, and the distorted Kaleidoscope appeared.

The moment Lenox grabbed the Kaleidoscope that was rotating with black light without hesitation.

“Self-Magnetic Domain Deployment.”
