Genius Warlock - Episode 340
“of course."
As soon as he heard the answer, Oliver quickly extracted life force and emotions and activated black magic..
[Revive)]
[Muscle Up)]
[Objective Hate)]
The life force and emotions that turned into smoke went gently but quickly like waves among the corpses hanging on the wall, and the corpses gained new life and used the vitality within their bodies as nutrients to grow their muscles..
“Kyaaaah-!!”
“Hahahahaha!!!”
“Kyahahahaha……!”
There are quite a few dozen of them. In other words, there were dozens of wizards who lost their lives in this space..
The zombies harbored intense hatred for Carl and Theodore and used their inflated muscles to break the restraints and attack them from all directions like an angry crowd..
Because they instilled hatred towards them through Objective Hate..
Perhaps because they actually had a grudge, the black magic had a greater effect than Oliver imagined..
‘Of course, they are not the ones who can finish it like this..’
Oliver predicted Theodore's inherent magical power, delicate magical flow, and Carl's skills..
The prediction was exactly right, and they blocked the attack of the angry zombie hordes surrounding them with a magical barrier, and at the same time began to burn the zombies with flames and explosions..
But it didn't matter.
Oliver's purpose in the first place was to buy time..
‘Derek and Felix... … . Others still alive.’
With that in mind, Oliver extracted a large amount of emotion from the test tube he had brought with him in advance, placed both hands on the floor, and activated black magic..
[Bless)]
Original black magic shown by Marie in the past.
As he chanted, the emotions Oliver extracted changed into a form between fog and light and passed through the entire building..
This allowed Oliver to take control of the building..
Chop rock. Chop rock. Chop rock. Chorak.
As soon as Oliver gained control, he used bricks to pin the wizards on the wall and Derek and Felix on the floor..
Then, the exterior wall of the entire floor was removed, opening the building and letting out the wizards pinned to the wall..
The wall that was supposed to be fixed moved naturally like a block, as if it had been there from the beginning, and went down along the exterior wall of the building..
Paaaaang!!!
A huge explosion of flame erupted, and dozens of zombies that surrounded Karl and Theodore and struck the magic shield until their fists were crushed exploded or burned to ashes..
Black smoke and the smell of burning corpses filled the entire area, but fortunately, the outer wall was removed when the captured wizards were let out, so the black smoke and smell of burning corpses were soon washed away by the wind..
When the smoke cleared, an angry Karl was seen and Theodore was looking at him with an interesting expression on his face..
Even when attacked by a horde of angry zombies, they showed no signs of injury or embarrassment..
It was a bit surprising.
It wasn't activated with the intention of causing damage in the first place, but even so, I never thought it would be this much..
Depending on how it was written, it was a surprise attack that could be defeated by anyone of any skill... … . Oliver was impressed..
“keep ignoring people-”
-widely.
Just as Karl, who misunderstood that he was being ignored, was about to lose his temper and get angry, Theodore put a hand on his shoulder and calmed him down..
Surprisingly, he is confident to the point of arrogance, and is full of fire and lightning. Kal, who had the ability to mix emotions and magic, became calm in an instant..
Like Yareli, he was psychologically enslaved to his guardian, but to a greater degree..
For example, while Yareli was held by Tilda with only a few chains, Carl was held tightly by Theodore with dozens of chains..
I've seen something like that in the past. Because it was similar to the teacher-disciple relationship in the warlock family..
It was very similar to the relationship between a black magician and a priest who psychologically dominates his students by granting them favor, guaranteeing their livelihood, and passing on knowledge of black magic..
“Interesting……."
Theodore opened his mouth..
It wasn't just something I said, it was sincere..
Contrary to what he heard from Kevin, he was interested in Oliver, who was just a problem solver and a member of the professor's personal staff. Along with greed.
“What interests you??”
“It's interesting that you let wizards who had nothing to do with you escape. In many ways, it would have been better to at least attack..”
Oliver nodded..
When Theodore and Karl were covered by dozens of zombies, it might have been more efficient to attack them..
I didn't know that if I made a corpse golem out of zombies or caused a corpse to explode, I might be able to break the magic shield and create a gap..
However, Oliver had his own reason for not doing so..
“Professor Kevin told me to evacuate Derek and Felix..”
"okay?”
“Yes, I am a personal employee of the professor. Also, I want to imitate you..”
“What do you want to imitate??”
“Professor’s attitude… … . Didn’t Theodore say it earlier? Professor Kevin's past. Regardless of my personal feelings, I appreciate that. I realized again how great Professor Kevin is..”
“is it?”
“Yeah, isn't that great? The attitude of fulfilling one’s duties and responsibilities even while not forgetting past grudges… … . Also, do you feel sorry and pity for the Magic Tower students who have grudges... … . very interesting and awesome.”
Theodore laughed as if it were all the same. But Oliver didn't care..
In the first place, Oliver had no desire to be recognized for the value he saw. As long as he thought he was great and beautiful, that was enough..
“That's a funny story. How can you evaluate a dog that is accustomed to its environment and food in that way?.”
“I don't think so, but I wouldn't object either..”
Theodore wiggled his eyebrows at the tone of voice that seemed to agree with your opinion..
“……I thought you had feelings for me earlier? Did I hear it right??”
“hmm… … . By any chance, Theodore, were you involved in the experiments that took place at Mattel? The reincarnation project..”
“Whatever it is related to. It's a project I ordered..”
“Ah, then I have a grudge. I want to hit you with Carl..”
Oliver spoke his honest feelings. I really wanted to hit you.
When he heard those words, Karl, who had barely been able to suppress his anger, exploded..
“bouncer! How dare anyone……!!”
With those words, he unleashed the vast amount of magical power within his body, combined it with his feelings of anger, and fired a lightning bolt at Oliver..
A streak of intense black lightning flew at him with such ferocity that it was terrifying, and Oliver narrowly dodged to the side..
Why has the level of lightning increased?.
It was much more complete than what I wrote when we first met today..
At that time, the mixing level of magic and emotion was low, so it was possible to neutralize it by lightly striking through the gap, but not now..
‘Is it possible to improve your skills this much in a short period of time? It's a big deal. I need to take care of that person too.…….'
Oliver thought as he looked at Theodore, who was standing with his back to Carl..
Strangely, he didn't seem to have any intention of fighting Oliver. Also, the thought of ruling it out was unsettling. He had a sinister mind and a sense of purpose that seemed to have an ulterior motive..
So Oliver tried to deal with Carl with minimal force, refraining from using great techniques as much as possible..
Kevin said Theodore is a real talent. If you allow a loophole, you could suffer irreparable damage..
“How dare you ignore me again?! Let's see if we can ignore this too.!!”
Karl expressed his anger and twisted the lightning that flew through the air, clumping black lightning together like a ball of thread, and then increased the pressure inside, causing an explosion..
[Explosion bomb)]
As I chanted, the electric current of the lightning bolt and the feeling of anger, entangled like a ball of thread, burst out, unable to withstand the pressure, attacking all directions irregularly..
This blind attack is more threatening to Oliver than an attack targeting a specific target..
In the end, Oliver created a shield by spreading his blood like a curtain..
[Blood Curtain)]
The blood shield was thin on the outside, but its effectiveness was clear..
Whatever blood magic is, it is a technique that combines emotion and magic..
It was different but similar to techniques like lightning, so it was much easier to block than regular magic..
Moreover, perhaps due to its characteristics of blood and electricity, it not only succeeded in defending itself, but even absorbed part of the lightning..
“The remaining talents……!”
Realizing that blood magic was tricky, Carl tried close combat, which relied more on strength than skill..
He mixed his anger and magic to create a black magic greatsword and rushed forward..
A technology that recognizes at least one physical force through magic conversion of the pure magic school..
Carl, whose legs had turned into a chimera, was very fast, and Oliver reflexively activated blood magic using the blood that had absorbed the lightning strike earlier..
[Impalement)]
The blood filled with lightning compressed into a huge lump of blood, which exploded and pierced the vicious stake forward..
Boom————Boom!!!
Surprisingly, the bloody stake that pierced even the ceiling without cracking due to the concentration of power was blocked by the sword..
Although it was pushed back due to the lack of power of the magician, it did not break through..
Indeed, amazing strength).
However, while the sword was being pushed back, as if it was not satisfied with even this, it turned the side of the great sword, spilling blood, and then rushed forward, violently cutting the side of the stake..
Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay!
In an instant, the bloody stake escaped Oliver's control and fell helplessly to the floor, leaving a red stain, and with it, a storm of blades came in front of Oliver..
Oliver touched the floor and used control of the building brought to Bless, creating a hole under his feet and running down it..
Bung~!
A black blade that narrowly cuts through the air..
Carl shouted excitedly..
“Such a rat-like guy……!”
With that, he raised his sword and tried to strike the floor..
[Needle)]
As soon as Carl raised his greatsword, Oliver stuck to the ceiling downstairs, opened a small hole, and shot a needle-shaped bullet of blood at Carl..
It wasn't a very powerful technique, but the sword was taken aback by the unexpected and quick attack, and used the magic greatsword as a shield to block it like before..
Oliver, who realized this, moved the building he had taken control of at the right time, creating a stone pillar above Carl's head and striking him down..
"Pfft......?!"
Carl, who was only concerned about frontal attacks, was hit by a stone pillar from behind and fell to the lower floor along with the collapsing floor..
What should I say… … . This includes the vast amount of magical power, a very good ability to control magical energy, and the ability to mix emotions and magical energy. Although his overall skills were excellent, his ability to utilize them seemed to be somewhat lacking..
In most cases, there is balance and harmony..
However, instead of asking this question, Oliver used all of his remaining blood to attack Carl..
Because Theodore continued to watch this place..
It was right to subdue them before they intervened..
A large amount of blood was turned into a crescent-shaped blade by Oliver and attempted to cut him, but the knife failed to respond..
At that very moment, a huge fist broke through the ceiling and struck like a thunderbolt, destroying Oliver's bloody blade..
Kwaaang——!!
At first glance, the giant's fist, made up of dozens of hands, seemed to have been imbued with an enormous amount of magic commensurate with its size, but Oliver caught a glimpse of a complex magic technique that seemed to have been put together by dozens of wizards, as was the enormous amount of magic power in the fist..
The reason Oliver's blood magic was neutralized was not simply due to lack of power..
“Ha, grandpa?”
Karl, who came back from the dead, called out to Theodore in a frightened voice..
Theodore ignored the voice and came down to where Oliver was..
“Why only use blood magic? Originally, wasn't his specialty a mixture of emotion and magic??”
Theodore spoke as if he knew everything..
Well, Oliver used it openly a few times when fighting Sheamus..
“what are those arms?”
Oliver asked, pointing to Theodore's arm, which gradually became smaller as the sprouted arm retracted into the body..
I was confused whether that was magic or black magic..
“I asked first.”
reasonable argument.
Oliver sighed and apologized..
“ah… … . sorry. I just didn't write it because I didn't need to. There was blood too..”
It's like saying that you used a moderate amount of what you had in moderation..
However, it was true to some extent and not a bluff..
“And one more thing: mixing emotions and magic is not my specialty. It's true that it's a powerful technology, but.”
Oliver explained it in detail so that he could get the right answer..
Mixing emotions and magic was something I ended up using with some success, but it wasn't anything special..
It was definitely an interesting technology... … . To begin with, Oliver had no special skills. Because I was able to use it well.
“is it?”
“yes… … . Could you please answer my question too??”
"I will listen. Are you curious about my arm??”
Theodore obediently gave permission. As expected, it was different from Kevin’s explanation. What is the reason??
“hmm… … . I'm curious about that too, but there's something more I'm curious about. Carl, how did you mix emotions and magic? As far as I know, it is a very difficult technique. Did he study separately from the life school??”
Oliver asked, recalling Merlin's explanation from the past..
“It's similar. Rather than developing the technology itself, it was injected with the blood of those who could use it.,”
".....??"
Oliver tilted his head. As far as Oliver knew, there was only one person who had the skill to mix pure emotion and magic without using blood as a medium..
Exactly, yourself.
“if……."
“……that's right. It's your blood. He dropped a few drops when he fought our researcher..”
“ah……."
Oliver exclaimed..
Three wizards who fought in Mattel. It wasn't that difficult as each individual's skills were outstanding and the team was good together..
The reason I was able to win in the end was because my opponent let down his guard..
“I put that blood into this kid's body..”
Theodore grabbed Karl's shoulder as he stood up in a timid manner..
Carl's touch revealed burden, fear, and guilt..
“Ha, grandfather. I'm sorry to disappoint you..”
“No, it's okay. Because I never had any expectations from you.”
“……yes?”
Carl couldn't believe his ears and asked Theodore. He never expected it……
Theodore didn't answer right away, but grabbed Karl's shoulder, put out his other hand and pierced Karl's back, and then answered again..
“I have never once looked forward to it. Not even once.”
