Genius Warlock - Episode 64

[black suit ver.. 2]

As Oliver chanted, the emotions and vitality contained in each test tube were pulled out like strands of thread and began to tangle into one thick thread..

Emotions and vitality tied together.

I've thought about it a few times, but this was my first time actually making it, and there was less backlash from my emotions and vitality than I expected..

No, it actually came together well..

Maybe it's natural.

According to what I read in the book, life force and emotions are ultimately rooted in the soul..

Surprisingly, no one paid attention to this fact, including Oliver from just now..

It was truly a happy thing..

Whether intentional or unintentional, I learned something new from this situation..

Somehow, I gradually began to think that it was a good idea to become a problem solver..

And along with that, I felt grateful to Paladin Joanna..

I was able to come out thanks to her advice to get out into the world and meet people, and lo and behold. How fun is this?.

Oliver's whole body is surrounded by emotions and vitality that are all combined into one..

Like wearing clothes or a coat.

Emotions and vitality complexly intertwined like cloth protected not only the entire body but also the quarter staff.,

Oliver put the empty test tube back in his arms and then took out a new test tube..

If possible, I tried to work as a troubleshooter while saving my emotions.,

I decided to put that thought aside to try out a new black magic..

More than anything, I wanted to check it out. How well will this new warlock magic work against warlocks like Knuckle Joe?.

It was clearly a disease-type warlock like the Dominic family, but the texture was different, so I wanted to check it out..

Oliver opened the test tube lid..

And then himself... . No, a black magic was cast on the black suit, which added vitality and improved functionality..

Burning Life, which ignites vitality and strengthens the entire body,

Muscle ups that use vitality to increase strength,

Endorance skin that uses the emotion of patience to make the skin tough and firm..

These three things.

I felt a different sensation than when I used it myself..

It's difficult for Oliver, who lacks expressiveness, to explain, but if I were to explain it, there was a difference between touching the skin directly and touching it through clothes..

Honestly, from Oliver's point of view, this was much better..

It feels a bit awkward, but compared to when you bet on yourself, there were no side effects..

While I was feeling a little joy and satisfaction from learning new facts and performing new black magic, a gang appeared..

“There it is! It's over there!”

"everyone this way!”

I could feel multiple gangs coming this way with urgent shouts..

Oliver suppressed the satisfaction he felt earlier and decided to really focus this time..

Good luck won't come in succession..

First, I focused my eyes and checked the approaching gangsters. Along with him, I could see Knuckle Joe, who was cautiously approaching among the gang, and Nico, with his big chin, circling over the wall and approaching..

"Well, first of all..…."

Oliver maintained the warlock's line of sight and cast a targeting spell on the gangsters and Knuckle Joe coming in front..

Using the warlock's vision made it much easier as it was not restricted by obstacles such as walls, but Oliver just threw black darts into the air according to the number of people..

Black blades scattered in the air like flower petals.

Then, as if attracted by a magnet, it gained strength and flew away, and soon after, a scream was heard..

Some quick-moving gangsters caught up with Oliver and shot him, but before he could fire a few shots, he was struck by a blade thrown by Oliver and fell to the ground after firing a gun..

"Here - evil!”

"Shoot, shoot - keke!”

“it hurts.… ! What is this-!”

Gangs falling one by one.

In the meantime, the muzzle flame lit up the surrounding area, and the surroundings were visible like an afterimage..

Then Oliver saw.

While hiding in the dark with the gangsters, looking for an opportunity, Joe quickly closes the distance with the gunfire..

Hiding behind the gangsters' backs, hiding his presence, he struck down the flying black darts and then used the leg strength strengthened by black magic to quickly close the distance as before..

It was only a moment, but it was all visible in Oliver's eyes..

"I should have run away when I had the chance..”

Joe, who was close in an instant, grabbed Oliver and said,.

Then he swung his opposite fist loudly..

bang—————!!!

A heavy silence came, accompanied by a tremendous sound. Like the artificial silence that comes after a person dies..

After what felt like an eternity, Knuckle Joe said softly,.

"you.… what?”

His voice was small, but agitated..

That's because his fist, strengthened with black magic, was blocked by a skinny warlock........

It's not a black magic like Black Shield, but an old quarter staff..

"no..… . Do you know how to use disease-related black magic??”

"yes."

Oliver responded by shaking off Joe's arm and swinging the quarter staff as he had learned from Cant..

Joe used black magic to increase his defense and blocked Oliver's attack head-on..

It seems like he was trying to check something rather than saying he couldn't avoid it..

Zeng—! Damn——! bang——!

There was the sound of iron hitting iron..

Although it was reinforced, Joe did an excellent job blocking Oliver's quarter staff..

Even though I couldn't withstand the impact and flew far back..

".......!!!"

Joe, who flew far away and fell, immediately got up and glared at Oliver..

He felt emotions such as bewilderment and confusion, but soon those emotions became firewood for intense emotions such as anger and hostility..

"you….!”

“.… This is Dave.”

“..…? what?”

"My name is Dave. You asked me earlier, right??"

Earlier, when he was surprised that the attack was blocked, Joe made a dumbfounded expression. As if this is the first time in my life that something like this has happened..

“..…Are you kidding me??”

"ah… .. Did I make a mistake? sorry. I wanted to ask you something too, so I answered your question first..”

“question….?”

"Yes, no different... .. this.”

Instead of trying to ask a question, Oliver turned his neck towards a nearby wall and took a defensive stance..

Then, the wall broke so loudly that someone came running out..

It was Nico with a big chin and riding on top of it..

“I barely woke up with Awake... ! Big chin! Break it down!!”

"Oooooooh——!"

Bang! Bang 1!

The big jaw pushed Oliver with even more fierce force than before..

To some extent, he grabbed both of his shoulders and pushed him against the wall, and his strength was so great that he broke two walls..

It was a shame to wrap myself in a black suit reinforced with endurance skin. If I hadn't been wearing anything, every bone in my body would have been broken..

Nico, riding on Big Chin's back, was surprised to see Oliver still intact..

"What is this guy... . Why are you fine?!”

A cry filled with pure doubt. Joe shouted back..

"You can also use disease-type black magic! Even better! more than I!”

"what?!”

Nico was genuinely surprised, as if he couldn't believe it, and looked at Oliver with wide eyes..

Oliver was still held by the big jaws..

Even though the strength was indirectly strengthened through muscle-ups, the difference in basic strength was so severe that it was impossible to overcome it..

‘Plus, my vitality is almost gone... . next few minutes?’

I had to finish it quickly.

"Fuck…. Big chin! Bite me and chew off the whole head!”

With those words, Nico extracted the emotion and cast a black spell on Big Jaw..

The big jaw opened its mouth wide after receiving instructions and black magic..

So much so that he swallowed Oliver's head whole in one bite..

"Wow - keke!”

Just as the big jaw was about to bite Oliver, Oliver desperately resisted and stuck his arm into the big jaw's mouth..

Perhaps it was unexpected resistance, but the big jaw popped! Wow! I was confused, but Nico quickly gave the next command.

"The damn thing is resisting... .. Big chin! Chew off that bastard’s arm first.!”

At the direction of the warlock riding on his back, the large jaws bit Oliver's arm..

Because my whole body was covered in a black suit, I didn't get cut right away, but I could feel my durability gradually decreasing..

If I stayed like this, my arm would probably be cut off. If you stay still.

[las boom]

Oliver exploded the emotions he was holding in his hands..

At the same time, the head of the large jaw exploded, and the body that was pushing Oliver lost strength in an instant and collapsed..

"......!"

"......!!"

Joe and Nico are surprised again.

In particular, Nico, who was riding on top of the big jaw, must have received a stronger shock, so he panicked and widened the distance, but Oliver did not allow this and immediately closed the distance..

"It's fast….!”

“I strengthened it with Burning Life..”

Oliver swung his quarter staff with those words..

bang————!!!

Just as he was about to hit Nico's body, Joe narrowly intervened..

He became his own shield and protected Nico..

“article....!"

"Spread the distance and support me!”

With those words, Joe engages Oliver in close combat..

He must have decided that he couldn't win the battle with firepower, so he kept a distance that was advantageous to him as much as possible and launched an onslaught, swinging his knuckle-covered fist and attacking downward with a kick..

It was quite irregular and fierce, so Oliver was unable to block all of them and ended up allowing most of the attacks..

As expected, Joe was superior in simple close combat..

Every time an attack hits the body, jump! Quick! A vicious sound echoed in the air..

Even though he didn't get any effective hits thanks to the black suit, he could easily sense that his bones would be broken if he got hit even once by the impact he felt beyond that..

Since the black suit's defense power was not infinite, Oliver hurriedly swung his quarter staff and counterattacked..

"You're good at black magic, but you're a novice at punching.?”

Joe easily dodged Oliver's attack and countered..

Wow———!

It didn't hurt, but I was shaken from the shock..

At that time, Joe grabbed Oliver by the collar again. As if I won't miss it.

"Nico!"

"okay! muscle up!”

Nico supports Joe with black magic..

Joe concentrated his power into his fist. His fists were stained dark red..

"Well, your fist will be ruined.?”

"shut up..… . I know you came to this place without any preparation.?”

"ah.……"

"Search.”

With those words, Joe swung his fist with all his might..

humming————!

There must have been a tremendous sound that shattered everything, but it only sounded like a heartbreaking sound splitting the air..

"huh?"

Joe shouted in confusion..

It was a natural reaction because I was suddenly pulled backwards as if something was pulling me..

Unable to understand what was happening, he looked behind him and saw Nico flying forward just like him..

Well, it wasn't exactly flying, it was being pulled by something..

“..…dart board?”

Joe said, looking at the black dartboard on Nico's body..

"Yes, targeting to be exact. Mixing obsession and pulling each other.”

As soon as they heard Oliver's answer, Joe and Nico collided in the air.,

Oliver, who followed closely behind, swung his quarter staff with all his might towards the defenseless people..

"Is this how you do it??”

Oliver asked, channeling the energy of the black suit into the quarter staff..

Kwaang—————!

Oliver's quarter staff struck Joe and Nico..

Both of them could not overcome the shock and flew into one wall and hit it, and the wall became incontinent as if representing the shock..

Joe was able to survive by strengthening his body with black magic, but Nico's body was broken like a doll..

The fighter crew members all fell down like that..

Oliver approached Joe, the only one alive..

To finish asking the question I asked earlier..

“Huh... … . Huh... … . What are you…..”

Joe asked breathlessly. eyes were out of focus.

“..…This is Dave.”

"ah… … . kill it.”

Joe said, steeling his resolve. However, apart from that, something seemed to be disturbed deep inside, and it took a similar form to the past cant. There is something to protect.

"hmm......"

Oliver was worried. To kill or not to kill.

Cant's advice not to kill too easily came to mind again, and along with it came the saying to kill strong enemies without pity..

Clumsy sympathy and carelessness lead to death..

When I thought about it, some of his teachings were very contradictory..

In the end, the decision is entirely up to Oliver..

After thinking for a while, Oliver extracted the emotions and gave black magic back to the quarter staff..

Then he brought the quarter staff to Joe..

[deep sleep]

Joe fell asleep as if he fainted..

Maybe I wouldn't be able to get up like this if I didn't have enough energy, but I could get up if I had the will and stamina to support it..

Thanks to you, I was able to conduct a good experiment, and although it was trivial, there was something I wanted to ask. I thought this would be appropriate for today..

With that concluded, Oliver started moving again..

Towards the target, Professor Herberton..

I focused my eyes and saw that he was getting ready to run away..
