Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 737
Low Flight (5)
Giant’s Citadel. The clown of Pandaemonium that we met in Zilean’s throne room.
It’s actually the first time since the Handbook Well incident that I’ve seen that strange white-painted face.
However, instead of being sentimental over the unexpected encounter, Lennok immediately raised his magic.
Dozens of thin threads stuck down from the air intersected the cheekbones from different directions.
Papababat!!
“… … ?”
The moment when the clown tilted his head at the dozens of magicians that tightly tied his limbs in an instant.
His body fell forward, scraping the floor and dragging him to Lennok’s feet.
“Ugh!!”
The clown, flipped like a frog, looked up at Lennok andughed.
“… … Please be gentle. I know you’re happy about the reunion after a long time, but I’m in a bad shape.”
“Since before, you have been saying what I have to say first.”
Lennok said that and gently stepped on the clown’s back.
“Kuheuhyeon.”
Lennok shook his head at the clown who gave off a strangeugh even as his throat tightened.
“Why are you here? Did you step in on this matter too?”
Lennok’s eyes shone coldly through the obsidian mask.
“If Sabrina secretly kicked her back pocket, there’s no reason to go over gracefully.”
Light and frivolous attitude. It’s easy to be mistaken for his unpredictable words and actions, but Lennok was well aware of what a clown was like.
Not only did he go crazy in a strange direction, but he was a transcendental illusionist whose level was difficult even for Lennox to guess.
It is a monster that maniptes its own hierarchy and handles even the madness that inevitablyes to illusionists at will.
At the time of the Well of Handbook, he was virtually alone in leading the operation, so his ability must be widely recognized within the Pandemonium.
If a bigwig with a considerable position enough to rule a continent even in Pandaemonium is here now, it must not be a light reason.
Lennok intuitively understood that he had to check it out right now.
[excuse me… … .]
Aa whispered in trouble, but Lennok ignored it and tried to give strength to the foot that had stepped on the clown.
The clown stuck out his tongue and tilted his head as if he had no idea.
“Eh? Was Sabrina interested in the Kavahim’s royalty, too? It’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”
“what?”
“Did we even discuss the strange VR that we created recently? If I had known I would be alienated like this, I would have entered at least once.”
[Victor. A clown is not the one who moves after hearing orders or strategies in the first ce. Gyebaek was a very unusual case,”
Aa exined.
[I just knew for the first time that the clown was near Kavahim.]
“… … .”
“Rather, why are you here? Judging by his behavior, I thought he wasn’t from the North. Same with Aa.”
“Listen first.”
“Yes?”
“Why were you searching the audience room?”
Lennok nodded as he said that, and the clown rolled his eyes.
“I need the biometric information of the Kavahim royal family. So I was in a hurry to search this side of the fort.”
“Biometric information of the royal family?”
Lennok tilted his head and asked while pulling the magician who tied the clown.
“I don’t understand. If that’s the case, then maybe I should ask Soryu?”
“When that friend was kicked out of Kavahim, he was pushed out of the line of session. When are you talking about the enemy?”
The clown shrugged and answered leisurely.
“The Grand Duke is the Hyeonwang’s younger brother, so he has a high session rank, but he’s rtively careless, so it’s not difficult to approach him. Wouldn’t this be much morefortable thanying hands on the princes?”
“… … .”
“Now then, would you like to exin why you came to the fort?”
the clown asked with a smirk.
Even though his limbs were tightly bound to the sorcerer, his expression was full of joy that he could not hide.
“I think we can cooperate with each other if we do well.”
* * *
Lennok freed the clown from the magician and briefly exined his business.
They say that they need a key to open Gyro’s box, so they are looking for an archduke who knows the location.
“okay… … .”
The clown was lost in thought as he casually picked up and ate the refreshment he had chewed and spit out.
No, in fact, he was pretending to be lost in thought, but his mouth seemed itchy because he already had something he wanted to say.
Lennok perched on the couch in the throne room and watched the clown’s dirty deeds with disgust.
“As Victor has already noticed, there is a solution that will satisfy all of us.”
“I have no idea.”
Despite Lennok’s cold reply, the clown spoke steadfastly.
“Please cooperate in killing the Archduke. Then I will help you find the key!!”
“hate.”
“great! Then vigorously… … ! yes?”
The clown jumped up from his seat and shook his head without raising his fist.
Looking at the clown like that, Lennok said coldly.
“Isn’t the bnce calction right? Why should I go to the trouble of killing the Archduke here?”
Kavahim’s Archduke Gillian is a powerful warrior who was a war mercenary.
It is also a strong person who is presumed to havepleted and surpassed the hierarchy of the main body.
All Lennok has to do here is not to deal with and kill Gillian, but to steal the key to the ship’s chest.
As a maniptor, there was no reason to engage in a cumbersome battle here.
“No that… … .”
The clown, who had no words to say, scratched the back of his head shyly.
“Let’s bring back some good memories from the well of our handbook. How can you not?”
“Go first.”
“Wait wait wait!!”
The clown flopped over and grabbed Lennok’s legs as he relentlessly rose from his seat.
“Then, even the blood of the Grand Duke!! Not necessarily killing, body hair is fine. Even the archduke’s leg hair!!”
“… … Could it be that you were crawling on the floor of the throne room to find body hair?”
Lennok was amazed at the unprecedented behavior and judgment, and after questioning, he came to his senses and shook his head.
“It doesn’t make any sense. Rather, in some cases, it will be more troublesome and difficult.”
“That thing called the key. I think I know where they are.”
“I will find out by myself.”
It’s enough to know that the clown doesn’t know about the existence of the ship’s chest and is interested in the blood of the royal family rather than the citadel.
Just as Lennok was about to leave the audience room, thinking that he no longer had to deal with the clown.
“The Ruins of the Giant Corps, hidden in the deepest part of the Giant’s Fortress.”
The clown slowly rose from his seat and said.
“They say there are many relics and ruins with a long history and high archaeological value. If it’s the key to the ship you’re looking for, it’s probably there, right?”
“… … .”
“I make a deal. I will show you the way.”
The clownughed.
“You just need to draw attention for a moment while I’m doing my job. I’ll take care of the rest.”
I’m not asking you to kill Jillian or take his blood, just wait a moment.
Now it feels like the clown’s requirements, which had no conscience, havee down to an eptable line.
Rather than trying to make a profit by bargaining with Lennok, the clown must have simply wanted to eat it raw.
“If you’re a magician like you, there’s no reason to borrow a hand, so why are you trying to make a useless deal?”
“Don’t you feel anything even afterying this poor body on the floor?”
The clown had a pitiful look on his face and his arms and legs were wobbly.
“As you can see, I am not in very good shape. There are only a few low-level illusions that can be used. It’s not a clown, it’s a scarecrow.”
“… … .”
Could it be that he has not yet recovered from the aftermath of the price he paid during the well operation?
No, quite a lot of time has passed since then.
It’s probably correct to say that he’s taking on another job in the meantime, abusing illusions and dealing with the side effects.
ording to Aa, the clown is a special force that moves freely even inside the Pandemonium.
It wouldn’t be strange if the world didn’t know where he wanted or what he was doing.
“My eternal heart shuttle… … Hmmm. Maybe things would have been better if I had a great partner, Glenn. It’s not like we can’t apany you every time.”
“… … .”
Now, I don’t even want to discredit the clown’s rotten personality.
However, it is clear that the clown often raised the output of his illusions by human sacrifice of Glenn.
It’s also certain that the output and power aren’ting out right now, when you say you’re in a bad state.
The mentality and the guts to openly confess one’s condition or weakness in front of Lennok were still difficult toprehend, but it was not a matter of immediate concern.
“So where are the ruins located?”
Lennok asked as he quickly scanned the audience room, which had be a mess after the clown rummaged through it once.
“I searched the basement of the citadel once, but there were no traces. Should I look for a hidden space?”
“Oh, that.”
The clown grinned as he picked up an ashtray from the table.
“Now, I n to find out step by step from now on.”
“what?”
“Shall wey him down first and talk to him again?”
jump!
At that moment, the door to the audience room opened and someone stepped in from outside.
At the same time, he vigorously swung the ashtray the clown was holding as if throwing a baseball.
The heavy ashtray flew at high speed andnded precisely on the face of the opponent who had just entered.
Wooddeuk!!
With a grotesque sound as if the bones in his face were copsing, the opponent fell backwards without even screaming.
As soon as the knights who followed saw him, they drew their swords.
“There was a thief in the audience room!”
“What a strange clown… … !!”
“Wow!!”
Before he could reply, the clown sprinted through the throne room andnded a dropkick on the knight’s top.
The knight’s de, swung precisely in line with it, pathetically cut through the air.
bang!!
“Keugh!!”
The clownnded in front of the unbnced knight and openly spread one hand in front of the knight’s eyes.
At that moment, as if caught in an invisible restraint, the figure of the knight absentmindedly stopped cutting.
“It’s caught~”
Geejik!!
When he kicked the knight’s crotch with his shin without hesitation, the knight copsed with an indescribable sound.
While Lennok frowned and averted his gaze, the clown in an instant knocked down another normal knight.
The clown who stunned the fallen knight by kicking the helmet like a ball winked at Lennok.
“Hit! Could you please close the door to the audience room?”
“… … .”
A surprise attack by a clown who ps a person who suddenly enters the audience room.
Even though he said he wasn’t feeling well, was it enough to y with the two knights of Kavahim using only simple magic tricks?
Asked Lennok, who pulled back the door to the audience room with the magician and closed it.
“What would you have done if there were more people waiting outside?”
“Ah, I put a simple illusion spell all over the fortress.”
The clown answered, picking up the bloody ashtray from his opponent’s face.
“It’s a spell that lowers people’s basic alertness, so by now everyone should be pretty numb to the fuss.”
“… … .”
Somehow, it was strangely easy to enter the fortress and find the throne room, so it was the result of the clown’s hand.
The fact that even a body that is not in very good condition used a high-level illusion that intervenes in cognitive abilities against the entire fortress.
But instead of questioning the clown’s skills, Lennok focused on his copsing, trembling opponent.
A thin, tall man with a red cloth wrapped around his body.
The 6th prince of Kavahim, who hade as an envoy of the Spell League, had fallen.
He was hit in the face with an ashtray, breaking his nose and splitting his jawbone.
The skin is already covered with bruises, and sticky blood is leaking from the crushed nostrils.
“This trash is no longer a member of the royal family and has fallen behind in the session rank, so it is not very useful, but there is one thing I need to check.”
Saying that, the clown opened the mouth of the fallen 6 princes and spat into them.
Seeing this, Lennok shook his head in disgust.
“You only pick dirty things to annoy me. What have you been doing ever since?”
“This friend came in here earlier and dabbled in some refreshments.”
Saying that, the clown pulled back the eyelids of the 6 princes.
“I mixed the body fluids from the leftover refreshments with my magic power and created a new illusion using it as a catalyst.”
“Isn’t it giving useless meaning to the act of chewing and eating snacks?”
It wasn’t that he knew the way when he said he would make a deal with Lennok about the location of the ruins.
Did you intend to interrogate the 6 princes approaching the throne room and obtain that condition right away?
The deal and idea without coteral were staggering, but it was not unconvincing as the other party was the other.
“The 6th Prince is a magician of the Spell Federation. In particr, he must have considerable resistance to the confession coercion technique that spits out information.”
Lennok asked.
“Can you extract the information before your mind copses?”
If you use Mystic Eye, Lenok can also extract information while crushing his memory or mind, but if the opponent has some resistance, he needs more preparation in advance.
If done wrong, the magician’s mind may be crushed before he can extract the desired information, so he must use it carefully while judging whether it is sessful or not.
Even Lennok tends to engage in this type of interrogation only after he has cornered the subject’s mind as much as possible and broken his will.
If you try to extract information immediately after crushing the prince’s face like now, most of them will be defeated.
“There are not many people who can endure pleasure rather than pain. This is especially true for those who grew up in a strict environment like the royal family.”
However, the clown responded leisurely to Lennok’s words.
“If you gently release the suppressed parts and instill a sense of security that you are bing what you want, even if it is fake, you will believe it for a very short time.”
The clownughed as he held the prince’s head in one hand and lifted it up.
“Phanjutsu is a tranquilizer born from such a desire.”
“… … .”
“The location of the ruins of the Colossus Corps. Way to go. Think of it as guiding your father, so please exin very kindly~”
As soon as the words were finished, the six princes’ mouths slowly opened.
“Walking along the outer walls… … seven steps… … Fifth block… … pupil… … From what I hear from my uncle… … .”
The words were heard sparsely, but it was enough to understand the context to some extent.
Lenok nodded his head afterparing the structure of the giant’s fortress with the information that came out of the mouth of the prince.
“This should be enough.”
“Then can I consider holding hands now?”
“I’ll make it a little more suitable for your nonsensical pranks.”
Chew!!
The 6 princes who fainted were tied up by the neck and thrown out of the window of the audience room and hung.
At this level, it should be suitable for attracting attention during themotion.
While the clown whistled, Lennok, who quickly finished the action, turned around.
Lennok asked as he kicked the audience room door and stepped out into the empty hallway.
“So what are you going to do now?”
“I will go as I said before.”
The clown who came along slowly warmed up and lightly stroked his waist.
Two gently curved daggers, a deck of cards, and several amulets of unknown purpose.
“I’m going to cut off the start, so please respond moderately. It’s okay to go first if you’re done with it.”
“Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll figure it out myself. What matters is when you start.”
Lennok replied.
“It’s hard to recognize that they’re moving with each other if there’s no clear signal. What’s more, ording to your words, it must be a difficult position to deal with flexibly.”
“Oh, don’t worry about that. Because the preparations are already finished.”
The clownughed.
“It’s been a long time since the members gathered at the well, so shouldn’t we be funny?”
“I don’t think fun is important.”
Despite Lennok’s cold reaction, the clown raised a hand.
“Victor, don’t do that. It doesn’t suit us very well.”
A small panel with thin switches sticking out. The color of the button painted red is particrly ominous.
The moment Lennok realized it felt like a bomb detonator.
The clown pressed the switch with all his might, and the entire audience room from which the two walked out exploded.
Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Great shes and roars. The scorching heat surged up into the sky, raising a mushroom cloud.
A hot wind blew through the corridor, melting everything around it.
The audience room on the top floor of the giant’s citadel.
“So I’ll make it a little more fun.”
“… … .”
Aa murmured quietly as Lennok gazed down at the citadel’s riotous courtyard in silence.
[I shouldn’t have followed you… … .]
