Genius Warlock-Episode 341
“I have never once looked forward to it. Not even once.”
Theodore said in his usual voice as he pierced the sword behind his back. That's why I felt sincere.
Oliver, who was hanging upside down from the ceiling, looked at the scene in silence..
It was the right time to attack, but the situation was so sudden that I wanted to wait and see..
Also, there was something I was worried about. For example, the penetrating wound inflicted by Theodore.
Obviously, if you pierce the body with your hand, there would be a wound and blood would bleed, but that was not the case with the sight in front of you..
Rather than causing a wound, Theodore's arm and Karl's body were mixed and fused together..
Bubbles were bubbling in the area where the flesh was in contact, veins and veins were merging together, and even the vitality was tangled together..
It was a fusion. Although he had no knowledge of the subject, Oliver knew instinctively..
But what was just as interesting was Karl's emotions..
Carl, who was also the general manager of Mattel, which conducted human experiments, ironically fell into an abyss of fear, fear, confusion, betrayal, and sadness just as much as the children he experimented with..
A reaction as if the world had collapsed.
Oliver didn't understand. Really.
Theodore's behavior was a bit surprising, but in the end, it wasn't much different from what he was used to, so I didn't understand why he was reacting like that..
It's just the same thing you've been doing, just with a different stance..
What I couldn't understand even more was that, while looking at that scene indifferently, I felt a little bit sorry for it. Just a little bit, but it was as bad as Colin's..
widely.
Oliver, who had been hanging from the ceiling, came down to the floor, while Theodore expertly swallowed his grandson..
Oliver, who had the eyes of a warlock, saw it..
Theodore's life force and emotions devour Carl's life force and emotions..
It was like a snake swallowing a mouse.
“iced coffee… … . Thanks for waiting..”
Theodore, who absorbed Karl's entire body, said: He looked very refreshed.
“No, I watched it because I was curious, so you don't have to thank me..”
“Ha, I see.?”
“yes."
Oliver nodded..
It was Oliver's first time seeing a technique that swallowed a person whole like that..
In the past, puppets had shown something similar in contaminated areas, and it was similar to the cannibalism of human meat chef disciples, but there was a clear difference..
While the Puppets and the Human Meat Chef's Apprentice were 'eating', swallowing the object and using it as food, Theodore was 'fusion', absorbing the object whole and only taking away the initiative of the mind..
You'll have to study it in detail to find out, but Theodore's technique seemed superior..
‘It looks like it has some weaknesses.......'
Oliver asked.
“Can I ask you a few questions??”
“However much.”
“Just that technique... … . Was it developed by the School of Life itself? Or did you take the skills of Mr. Puppet or Mr. Human Meat Chef??”
“Have you met those two??”
“I've met Puppet, but I haven't met Human Meat Chef. However, after meeting the disciples, I know that they absorb power by eating human flesh.."
“her… … . It's amazing that you're still alive... … . No, isn't it natural??”
"......?"
Oliver tilted his head at the unknown words..
What is normal??
As I was about to ask a question about this, Theodore answered first..
“It is true that it was based on their technology, but it was improved according to the Life School method. 'Cause their ways are inefficient.”
Oliver nodded in agreement..
As mentioned earlier, the method of puppets and human meat chefs is eating. Theodore was a fusion that absorbed it as it was..
In terms of efficiency alone, Theodore's method could be said to be superior..
As proof, Theodore not only became much younger by absorbing Karl's vitality and youth, but also took his magic power and magic flow and made it his own..
“The question is, is that the end??”
“hmm… … . Can I ask a little more??”
“try.”
Theodore readily accepted, warming up as if enjoying his youth. Aside from the good feeling of swallowing a knife, the treatment is quite unconventional..
According to Kevin's explanation, I said he didn't have this type of personality. Oliver was curious about the reason for this kindness, but he first asked a question..
“Can I ask why nothing is okay??”
"what?"
“Oh, I didn't mean anything bad. I'm just personally curious. Mr. Carl, as far as I know, is Theodore's grandson, and he didn't feel any discomfort when I swallowed him... … . I wonder why.”
“under… … .Strange for a warlock question..”
Oliver nodded in agreement. As Theodore said, it wasn't a question worthy of Oliver, a warlock, asking..
Even so, I was curious..
The moment Theodore penetrated and absorbed Karl's body, Karl felt a true sense of betrayal, sadness, and fear. In other words, the story is that Karl trusted Theodore..
I've seen that feeling before. From a child who has been abandoned by her parents and is new to an orphanage, or from a child who has just been sold into a mine..
Feeling abandoned by the world.
Although it was only for a moment, the sword showed the same emotions as the helpless child..
Maybe that's why I was a little concerned. Strangely enough, it reminds me of Colin..
“Whatever… … . Isn't it grandson??”
“They even ate the bodies of their children, so what can they not do with their grandchildren??”
Theodore calmly and calmly told us a shocking truth..
Oliver didn't know how to react, so he just exclaimed..
“ah… … . the reason is?”
“Why? hmm… … . Why do you think people have children??”
“The director of the orphanage told me that my parents were stupid and didn't use birth control..’
Theodore burst out laughing. It seemed really funny..
“That's not wrong. Because most ordinary people are born that way. Through alcohol and carelessness - but there are also people who plan to have children. Rich, powerful and noble people..”
“Why do they have children??”
“To leave behind your genes.”
“Genes.?”
“okay. It is the only means by which humans can make their finite lives meaningful. If the child is alive, it becomes proof that he was alive. Don't you understand??”
“hmm… … . Honestly, it's a difficult concept for me to understand..”
Oliver answered honestly. As an orphan, Oliver had no one to teach him the meaning of parents, children, or family, and there was no one to plan his future and teach him the meaning of descendants..
But funny enough, Theodore was telling me now..
“Few humans accumulate a lot during their lifetime. Riches to overflow, power to influence the other side of the world, knowledge to change the world. However, when death comes, it eventually becomes as meaningless as dust. So humans have children. He tries to survive in a roundabout way by passing on his achievements to his alter ego. That's the reason children exist.”
"hmm......."
I don't really agree with it, but it was an interesting perspective..
“But then, shouldn’t your child and grandson, Mr. Carl, be swallowed??”
Oliver asked a question, pointing out incoherent parts, but Theodore shook his head. Looks like Oliver got the Mac all wrong..
“You don't understand... … . In other words, if you can overcome death and live forever, blood relatives such as children and grandchildren will no longer have much meaning.”
Theodore burst out laughing as he said that. She shone through her joy at being able to overcome an absurd reality and her satisfaction at having reached her purpose..
Oliver asked again.
“Do you have the technology to live forever? Professor Kevin said that there is no such technology in the life sciences..”
“That's right, no. But we can develop it soon. Because you are here.”
Theodore pointed to Oliver..
“I… … . Are you saying?”
Oliver looked around and asked again for confirmation..
“yes you.”
“……There's something, there's a misunderstanding-”
"-Hahahahahahahaha!! ”
Theodore suddenly burst into laughter. It was an intense laugh that could be considered a joke..
"That's funny. It's funny... … . Even though he has all the blessings that humans can only dream of, the person who possesses them is so foolish... … . I'm really angry."
Theodore suddenly looked blank..
“I said mixing emotions and magic wasn't my specialty.?”
“yes.”
“I said it was a skill I ended up using by chance.?”
“yes."
“I didn't learn blood magic, I just saw it and imitated it.?”
“yes.”
"I guess it's not that someone taught me magic and I was able to use it.?”
“Similar. I learned it, but I used it first..”
After hearing all the answers, Theodore lost his cheerful mood and burst into intense jealousy and anger..
Jealousy toward Oliver and anger toward the absurd reality..
It was a series of events that were truly difficult to understand..
Of all the people Oliver has ever seen, there is no one more blessed than Theodore, and yet he is jealous of himself as an orphan and angry at the absurdity of the world..
It was an incomprehensible reaction..
“Do you know how much I paid to completely absorb your blood??”
“……? By any chance, are you talking about the wizards who were above??”
“Yes, even though less than a drop of dust-like blood was transplanted, there was a tremendous backlash. Even a great wizard died with his body twisted and his blood corrupted..”
"......."
“So, I paid the magic and vitality of over a hundred wizards to transplant just a few drops of blood into Cal's body. I swallowed that knife! … … say it! Who are you? What kind of being does it have blood like this??!”
Although Theodore was already somewhat convinced, he dared to ask Oliver a question..
In contrast to his extremely excited state, Oliver felt only incomprehension and embarrassment..
A similar feeling to meeting a drunkard talking nonsense while walking down the street..
Still, Oliver remained polite and answered..
“……I'm just Dave, Professor Magic Tower's personal employee Zenon Bright and Area T's troubleshooter..”
It may not have been the answer he wanted, but Theodore was only displeased. As if ignored.
“Of course, it's too much for you. It's too much!!”
Theodore shouted and naturally extracted the emotions from within his body and laid them on the floor..
Surprisingly, it was Marie's original black magic and the Bless that Oliver had just used..
Theodore's emotions changed into a form between fog and light and swept over the entire building, overtaking the control that Oliver had taken in advance..
Oliver tried to defend control late, but was one step too late..
Ugh… … ! Kiiiiii… … . Clap la la rock! Clap la la rock!
Theodore used black magic skillfully, as if he had been using black magic from the beginning, and manipulated the upper part of the building into a deformed shape..
It is shaped like a globe made of wire, which makes it extremely dangerous underfoot..
amazing skills.
Oliver realized that it was not something he had simply acquired by absorbing the sword, but was a product of his skills having already developed a sufficient foundation..
So I didn't understand any more..
Why did a person of this level of skill betray the Magic Tower, sacrifice countless wizards, and even sacrifice his grandson to absorb a few drops of his blood?.
However, soon Theodore, who was hanging upside down at the top of the globe, revealed the reason himself..
“By swallowing you whole, I will overcome the curse of aging and death given to humans by God! Overcoming the apocalypse! I bridge the gap with Merlin, I am the greatest wizard! That you are the chosen one! I'll prove it!!”
Theodore shouted an interesting word and spread a large amount of electricity through the deformed terrain created with Bless..
The blue electricity was so thick and rough that it was clearly visible to the eye and covered the entire structure.,
Oliver, who decided that general defense was not the answer, jumped and ran away from the wave of electricity..
“where!”
As if he had been waiting, Theodore applied magic to the ground he had manipulated with Bless, manipulated the electricity that spread in all directions, and attacked Oliver..
Dozens of rays of electricity flew from all directions..
Although it may seem simple, it is a technique that is difficult to master with ordinary magic control..
Before the electric shock struck him, Oliver summoned a blood balloon using a small amount of blood stored separately in a test tube just in case, secured a large amount of blood, and narrowly avoided the attack by wrapping the blood like wings..
Oliver put on his black suit and went in front of Theodore and asked..
“Do you know about apocalypse?”
