Drug-Eating Genius Mage

The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 978

: Celestial Magic: Model Garden (1)

As you enter the noisy studio, there are wizards training their martial arts everywhere.

As Lennok headed to the desk near the entrance, the receptionist asked with a friendly smile.

“Are you a new customer who wants to take classes?”

“I’m looking for someone.”

“I can only help with course registration. Currently, martial arts classes for wizards are divided into three classes: upper, middle, and lower. Can I continue talking about it?”

“You just have to deliver it. Clarisse Richelen. “I understand you’re in this studio right now.”

“sorry. I cannot provide information about other members. Currently, both morning and afternoon classes are closed, so you cannot apply, and there are two spots left for late-night classes on Sunday and Monday. Would that be okay?”

“….”

A strange conversation method that answers Lennok’s words faithfully, but ultimately ends up registering as a member.

Lennok said with a bitter smile, placing his hand on the desk.

“Please give me a late-night class on Sunday.”

“Here is your martial arts uniform. If you wait at the studio, you will consult with Teacher Lancia and guide you to the right class.”

Instead of changing into the martial arts uniform handed to him by the guide, Lennok headed straight to the studio.

I didn’t come to listen to a martial arts lecture, but to find Clarisse Richelen.

‘Clarice’s presence…is it inside the correctional room?’

It appears that the class is taking place in a room behind the studio where posture correction devices are installed.

Now that we’ve come this far, I don’t plan on making a fuss about calling Clarice over.

Lennok is also interested in how Lancia teaches wizards, so it wouldn’t be difficult to just wait for a while.

I sat on a chair lined up against the studio wall and began watching the wizards practicing their martial arts skills.

“If you turn your shoulder like this…”

“No. That’s not it. “If you think about the movement of magic power, the direction to narrow your arms is -”

Students practicing martial arts movements according to the instructor’s movements, and magicians who stayed after class and devoted themselves to individual training.

Some people gather among themselves to check the movements they have learned and discuss the flow of magical energy.

Thinking back to the time when Lennok was learning Pilates, it was a space full of human heat that felt unfamiliar.

However, even though Lennok was thinking about taking a look at the studio, he was actually thinking about something else.

To be precise, what happened in the Library of Darkness that I visited just before finding the studio.

“….”

Nox Biblio, a subspace archive that contains a collection of hexes from the old world.

There, Lennok borrowed advanced magic techniques, including ‘Celestial Art: Model Garden’, and faced Rich Naoise Fenn.

When I came out of the library, I met Oliveira right away, so I didn’t think about it, but I still feel delusional about him.

Lennok’s gaze sank deeply as he recalled what happened in the library.

‘Even though we were in the same sub-space, I couldn’t notice the presence. Either it was an alter ego from the beginning, or the power of the original body was greatly weakened.’

The reason Lennok recognized Lich’s identity was not because of his great power or intent, but because of his words and actions.

The unsightly skeleton I encountered in the library was somewhat different from the powerful necromancer I had seen in my memories.

There must be a reason why the transcendental person who succeeded in inscribing existence in the third world looks so shabby.

Lennok was thinking that the reason might be based on the dark library where Naoise Fenn resided.

‘Naoise Fenn said that the very existence of the library was his ‘price’… but maybe the opposite is true.’

If you didn’t create the library to exist in the world, but still exist in this world to create the library.

If that is the reason why he stays in the library and concentrates on translating the grimoire even after he succeeds in ascending to heaven.

That’s probably because there’s something I want to find by collecting and translating grimoires.

‘He knew that the Grimoire of Seal of Destiny was written from the future. He said it was an item that cannot be touched, but that is to say again…’

The influx of grimoires written from the future into Nox Biblio is exactly what he intended.

Perhaps Naoise Pen is waiting for books from a specific ‘time period’ to flow into the dark library he created.

In order to achieve that goal, if you are using mortals as librarians to organize and translate grimoires –

“….”

The only thing that can be certain is that the entire subspace ‘floated’ at the last moment when the library disappeared. .

Naoise Penn said that Nox Biblio needed a lot of soul weight to exist in this world.

If so, wouldn’t the fact that the Library of Darkness emerged leaving Lennok behind have something to do with it?

In terms of time, the meeting with the necromancer was extremely short.

At the time, Lennok was lost in thought at the sight of the lich, which did not fit his ferocious reputation.

I could hear wizards talking right next to me.

“Wrong. “Magic power does not rotate just by extending the right arm.”

“Isn’t it okay to slightly bend your elbows?”

“You can change your movements, but the flow of magical energy itself is fixed…”

People are seen shaking their heads in embarrassment while repeating the motion of extending their fists.

Lennok’s eyes meet one of the wizards who had been discussing a specific movement for a while.

The wizard seemed embarrassed the moment his eyes met Lennok’s, but then smiled and asked.

“You were looking over here earlier. If it’s okay, would you like to train with us?”

“…Are you talking about me?”

A neat-looking young man wearing a martial arts uniform and sweating. Anyone can see that his face looks more like a scholar than a martial artist.

While he was staring blankly at the man who suddenly spoke to him, he looked at Lennok and said.

“I thought it would be helpful if we had someone to watch the training.”

“….”

Only then did Lennok understand what the other person was saying and tilted his head.

As if guessing Lennok’s thoughts, the man spoke in a soft voice.

“There are a lot of wizards in the studio, so the magic flow is quite rough, but there was no reaction from those around you.”

“….”

“It may be presumptuous to say this, but I have rarely seen a magic field so organized. “You must be a member of a famous wizard organization.”

The man smiled, raised his arms and turned his shoulders.

“If you watch our training, we will give you some useful tips when taking Lancia’s course. How are you feeling?”

“That’s an interesting suggestion.”

Since he had left his coat and cane behind, it is not surprising that Lennok did not notice who it was.

However, I never thought it would go beyond being noticed and directly ask Lennok to help with training.

Lennok chuckled and nodded.

“If you want to do it, do it. “I don’t know if I have anything to tell you.”

“Pierce. “Are you okay?”

A wizard who appeared to be a colleague asked with a suspicious look, but the young man called Pierce paid no attention.

“Omer. Trust me. “There are times when we need a new perspective on problems that we cannot solve on our own.”

“I don’t know if I’m asking an unnecessary favor from someone who hasn’t taken the course yet…”

Omer said that but stepped back as if he would respect Pierce’s opinion.

While the other wizards were looking at the two with interest, Pierce stepped in front of Lennok and raised his fist.

“You probably know about the lightning bolt and the thousand clashes that shook the Balkans. “I will omit specific explanations.”

Huh!!

The moment he lightly punched his fist, magic power spun through Pierce’s arm, drawing a circular magic circle.

An alternative chant that completes magic by manipulating magical power with only body movements without the use of hand signs or chanting.

Pierce, who skillfully completed the beopjin, put both hands together and said.

“To start with, we are researching an alternative chant that has been used a thousand times.”

“….”

“Thousand times’ idea of replacing hand signs and incantations with martial arts was the most complete of all alternative chants that have been attempted so far. Moreover, the fact that alternative chants were used a thousand times with the Blazer Magic Tower’s flame magic was nothing short of leaving room for the tower’s wizards like us to imitate. But there is a problem.”

“problem?”

“Martial arts required for alternative chanting. To be precise, the movement cannot be changed as desired.”

Pierce said that and slowly took up his position and began to move his body.

As I lowered my posture and turned my body, my magic power stirred and glowed. They are combined in real time and completed as one magic.

An alternative chant that completes magic by relying on physical techniques to move the body without the preparation process of hand signs and spells.

However, even as he performed the alternative chant in front of Lennok, Pierce’s expression was slightly stiff.

“As it is now, the only way to use it is to match a specific flow of magic power to a specific movement. If things continue like this, the practicality will be poor.”

“….”

“If you have to dance alone in front of the enemy in order to cast a single spell as an alternative chant, wouldn’t it be impossible to use it in battle?”

Pierce said, adjusting his posture with a thoughtful expression.

“The more I researched alternative chants, the more I couldn’t figure out how Cheonbeon was able to replace chants with martial arts alone while fighting against fastness. “Is it possible because he is a genius who transcends standards, or is there a secret we don’t know about?…”

Pierce said and looked back at Lennok, but Lennok did not respond.

He just tilted his head with an expression that seemed to be contemplating something.

Just as Pierce was about to bow with a wry smile at the response that seemed to have no proper solution.

Lennok said in a grumpy voice.

“You guys are mistaken about alternative chants.”

“…yes?”

“Replacing chanting does not necessarily mean using only martial arts. “The important thing is the act of artificially adjusting the flow of magical power.”

“….”

“What is intended through martial arts is the direction of the first spreading magic power and intention. From then on-”

The moment Lennok lightly flicked the air, magical energy spread vertically through his fingers.

In an instant, the magic flowed down Pierce’s shoulder, bending low and spinning.

On the spot, I drew a circle and made a small Buddhist formation.

Peeee!!

While Pierce was speechless as he looked at the magic circle floating in front of him, Lennok spoke indifferently.

“We adjust the flow by applying magic power and objects that exist outside.”

“I see.”

Pierce’s eyes widened as he understood Lennok’s words.

“Wasn’t it possible to complete the alternative chant using only martial arts? “If you have to keep external magic sources in mind when applying…!!”

“If you think about it, when you fought against Lightning a thousand times, you had several strange heat sources wrapped around your entire body.”

Other wizards, including Omer, also muttered as if they realized something.

“Was it not for the purpose of enhancing the magic technique and replenishing mana, but was it itself a preparation for alternative chanting?”

“The level of difficulty will definitely be much higher than before. “It is by no means impossible.”

“The change in the nature of magical power is implemented outside the body, not inside the body, and used in chanting.”

Lennok said so and raised a white cloud of light in front of Pierce’s eyes.

When two clusters of lights emitting different lights collide, they bounce back as if repulsing, splitting and merging repeatedly.

Broke! Broken!!

A vivid image of magic light pulsating violently in the air as if it were alive.

While the other wizards could not keep their mouths shut at the unrealistic magic manipulation, Lennok continued to explain.

“Amplification and backlash. Resonance and overload. Diffusion and projection. “Preparing the board according to various situations and using martial arts instead of chanting.”

“….”

“This is the essence of the act of replacing chanting.”

“It’s really amazing…”

Pierce, who was watching Lennok blankly, muttered as Lennok lightly waved his hand and withdrew his magic.

“I’ve never seen anyone understand and explain another great wizard’s chanting so deeply. “What is your affiliation?”

“Why do you ask that?”

“The introduction is late. “My name is Pierce Drickman of the Matterhorn Tower.”

When Lennok responded angrily, Pierce hurriedly took out a business card from his pocket.

“If you visit our magic tower in the future, I would definitely like to have you at least once as a magic advisory instructor…” “

This is Wibias from the Enolas Magic Tower. Please come to our magic tower once…!!”

“It’s called Omer Luart of Garbatia. “I’m very impressed with your insight-”

“My name is Kendrick from the Claire Institute!”

At the same time as Pierce took out his business card, the other wizards also began to rush to introduce themselves.

They also understood that Lennok’s explanation clearly answered questions about alternative chanting while also getting to the point.

Through our recent conversation, I found out that he was a wizard with a very high level of understanding of magic.

But Lennok shook his head as he looked at the wizards rushing to give him their business cards.

“I have no idea. “I don’t plan on staying here for long, so I don’t want to hear any useless suggestions.”

“Ah… Is that so?”

“sorry. “You have been rude.”

Although they seem somewhat disappointed, the wizards obediently back down.

This may be because there are many who feel rejected by this type of recommendation due to the nature of wizards with strong personal tendencies.

But Lennok chuckled as he looked at those wizards.

“There is a misunderstanding. “I’m not saying I won’t explain the alternative chant.”

“yes?”

“Isn’t the reason you came to this studio because you were interested in alternative singing?”

Lennok said and glanced away.

“I guess I can look after it for a while until the person looking for it comes.”

“Wizard…!!”

“You are a very kind person. How did this connection happen today….”

Lennok began to give advice to the wizards practicing alternative chants in front of him.

“The center of gravity is too high. “Refining the flow is more important than adjusting horsepower.”

“I couldn’t decide which movement of magic to apply to which movement. “I need more practice.”

The reason why he explains and gives advice in detail about the alternative chant used under Evan’s identity.

That was partly to teach wizards from other magic towers and to look over their shoulders and learn the magic system that comes from the alternative chants they practice.

In the first place, this was because alternative chanting itself was not a skill that could be perfectly imitated even if taught.

Unless they manage magic by predicting and judging every aspect of the battle in real time like Lennok, most magicians cannot imitate even a tenth of a performance that has been shown a thousand times.

However, with Lennok watching from the side and giving advice, the wizards’ alternative chanting skills themselves began to grow rapidly enough to be seen.

Rather than matching the movements to the desired magic, it quickly reached a level where the movements were changed arbitrarily, replacing chanting.

The wizards also realized this and continued to praise Lennok.

“You make the explanation really easy to understand. “Excuse me, but do you do teaching for a living?”

“I never thought I would meet such a friendly drinker in a huge city.”

The sight of wizards speaking in a friendly manner as if they had been training together for several days.

Was he deeply impressed by Lennok’s generous advice on alternative chanting?

In an instant, the wizards who gathered next to Lennok began to comfortably reveal their feelings without hesitation.

“If you have this level of insight, you must have many disciples. “I envy you.”

“As expected, the inheritance and development of magic is achieved through constant exchange and communication.”

“Even the fasties sitting in the Balkans should know this fact.”

“That’s right. Instead of interacting with other magic towers, he just closes the door and stays alone…” “

…”

As Lennok just smiled in silence, the other wizards also began to help one by one.

“When I heard that a magic tower would be built in Balkan, I thought the status of wizards in this city would increase further.”

“I recognize that you have the talent and ability to reach such a high level at a young age, but if you live alone without paying attention to training others, you will only have many enemies.”

“It is said that the battle with Cheonbeon ended with the victory of Lightning, but if you really ask, it doesn’t mean that Cheonbeon had anything to say, right?”

“Not only did he show alternative chants, but he also had the skill to use flame-type magic.”

“That won’t happen, but if a fight breaks out again, this time-”

“Fast…?”

At that moment, the expressions of the other wizards froze from smiling.

An incredulous voice rang out from behind Lennok.

Clarisse, holding a towel in one hand, stood looking at Lennok with a bewildered expression.

“Why are you here?”

“….”

Chilly silence.

The faces of the wizards who belatedly realized this situation turned as pale as corpses.

“I have a story to tell you about my dealings with Oliveira.”

Lennok spoke leisurely among the wizards who were frozen in place.

“For now, let’s remove all listening ears.”

“…Whew.”

Clarisse sighed heavily, looked at the other wizards trembling, and shook her head.

“The management office is empty. Let’s talk there first.”
