Genius Warlock-Episode 641

641. airship (3)

Oliver experienced little psychological disturbances such as disappointment, anger, and embarrassment in his life..

This is because he knew in advance what the other person's thoughts and intentions were through the eyes of a warlock..

That's why I wasn't disappointed, angry, or embarrassed no matter what I went through..

Because most of those feelings are feelings that arise when you escape from expectations or projections..

But if it wasn't there at all, that's not true. Because the world is strange and unexpected things often happen..

Now was the time..

“don't worry. I know Yarely's skills, and I'll guarantee Derek's skills..”

Airship from Landa to the outskirts of Gallos.

On the way to the top floor, Kevin said to Oliver to reassure him:.

I wondered what this was doing, but I couldn't help it..

Oliver looked the same as usual on the outside, but he had just made a fuss about going directly to Rosburn..

In an emergency situation where the airship might crash..

I was still dizzy. I barely convinced him, but it was a disaster..

“Yes, I understand.”

After hearing Kevin's consolation, Oliver gave a short reply..

The intonation was the same as usual, but Kevin could sense a subtle change..

Or maybe I was mistaken because I saw Oliver cut down the warlock in one go earlier..

It wasn't important right now, but.

“That's strange by the way.”

Kevin, who used magic to erase his presence and sense his surroundings at the same time, opened his mouth..

“What are these guys doing??”

Kevin was suspicious of the warlocks' actions..

And it was a very reasonable question..

The hijacking of an airship was a high-risk crime, regardless of the heinousness of the crime..

If you made a mistake, you could fall over with the airship, and there was a time limit due to fuel. Because of its huge size, it was easy to track and difficult to escape..

Therefore, crimes such as airship hijacking had to have clear goals..

Destruction of the airship itself, kidnapping of a key figure, or terrorist attack hitting a building, etc..

Of course, quality, quantity, and consistency were required, but the warlocks here had none of that..

Regardless of their skills, they were not enough in number to take control of a huge airship, so their defenses were poor, and more importantly, they did not do anything after taking over the cabin, air compartment, and engine room..

A very foolish action compared to what was done. It was as if I had been ordered to stop here..

The question was who did it?.

“First of all, you can catch it and ask..”

The top floor of the airship. Just below the air sac management layer.

Kevin looked up at the ceiling through the eyes of a warlock and set his goal..

Perhaps thanks to Oliver's help in opening his eyes, Kevin was able to use the warlock's eyes more freely than most warlocks..

As Oliver said, there were six of them, and they didn't seem to understand the situation..

Kevin wasted no time in taking out the chain he had received from the paladin..

Sigh..

The silver chain shook and a small sound rang out..

The shiny chain looked like a rosary at first glance, but Kevin manipulated it by wrapping magic around it..

Charrrrr. Charrrrrr.

Chains wrapped in magic crawled up the wall like snakes and stuck under the ceiling, and beyond them stood the black magicians who had taken over the air bag management room..

Paang!

When Kevin moved his hand and exploded magical power, a small shock wave spread from the chain, and the chain penetrated the ceiling, simultaneously trapping the warlocks beyond..

“What, what??”

“Wow! It's constricting me?!”

A clean surprise attack made possible thanks to excellent pure magical magic and experience gained during war..

The warlocks were embarrassed and resisted, but when Kevin chanted, they became unable to do even that..

[Necto)]

At the same time as the chant, an intense light emanated from the chains, taking away not only the black magic the warlocks were using but also their physical freedom..

It is a unique function of the 'Chain of Repentance', a sacred item, and the paladin said that it completely neutralizes the sinner's magic and body..

As if to prove this, once the chain started functioning properly, it escaped Kevin's control..

There was no problem as the warlock had already been subdued..

One of the three warlock groups that took control of the airship was easily subdued..

Of course, the same goes for the other two..

The moment Kevin and Oliver were about to leisurely climb up the air bag management room, an explosive sound rang out and the aircraft shook..

Kwaang!!

The direction from which the explosion was heard was the engine room toward the stern..

Just when I thought the Paladins had failed.

Kwaaang!!

A second explosion rang out immediately..

The direction from which the sound was heard was upwards..

Embarrassed, Kevin broke down the door and went up to the air sac management room, where he discovered the inside of the management room surrounded by tempered glass, various mechanical devices, and a huge air sac visible beyond the glass ceiling..

The air sac was bigger than an airship, so it was difficult to see the overall shape, but even so, it was visible at a glance that a huge hole had been created by the explosion..

It was questionable. How on earth could an explosion... It was clear that the warlocks were suppressed so that they could not even move a finger..

Kevin looked at the trapped warlocks with suspicion..

Surprisingly, they were all foaming at the mouth and out of breath..

He committed suicide by biting off poison hidden in his molars..

At a time when Kevin's mind was spinning at the absurd situation, he made eye contact with a man who was trapped..

“The bomb exploded! We need to respond quickly!!”

As an employee at the air sac management office, he turned pale and almost screamed..

That was correct.

There were a lot of things I wanted to discuss, but I had to deal with the situation first..

Kevin tried to respond to the situation by shooting small flames and freeing the trapped employees..

If the airship crashed from this height, everyone would have died..

Meanwhile, gas was escaping from the hole in the air sac, and the hole was getting bigger and bigger..

The good news is that after much effort, the gas was improved and the explosion did not catch fire..

“emergency air sac operation!!”

Hahahahahaha!!!

Someone pulled a lever and shouted, and small air sacs exploded in all four directions of the airship..

If a problem occurs in the main air sac, a safety device is installed to ensure safe flight or landing..

As the emergency air sac unfolded, the aircraft that was falling gradually became more stable..

However, even for a moment.

Despite its name as a safety device, another explosion occurred at the front and back of the air sac..

“what······?!”

The gas roars and shakes. People screamed one word.

Because the last safety device exploded.

Kevin and Oliver were equally embarrassed..

Although it was understandable that the airship was taken over in such a short period of time, it was incomprehensible that bombs were placed in various air pockets on the outside of the airship..

But I couldn't think about it right now..

Now I had to plan the next plan. Either run away from the falling airship or somehow stop it..

Kevin and Oliver's eyes met in the worst situation where no ordinary person could do anything..

As if it was not in vain that they had been tangled up as a professor and a private employee for a considerable amount of time, the two were able to exchange their thoughts through their eyes..

It was Kevin who spoke first..

“Is there a way to prevent an airship from falling??”

“You can try it, but it takes time.”

“Good.”

Oliver says that he can stop an airship whose basic structure weighs hundreds of tons, but it takes time. And Kevin answers just fine..

It was a conversation that went beyond common sense, but fortunately, it was possible for the two of them..

It was Kevin who acted first..

He concentrated his magic power on his feet. While falling, he pinned his floating body to the floor and attempted to communicate with the spirit by releasing magical power into the air..

“sylph.”

In the air. More specifically, Kevin speaking into the air..

Surprisingly, as if something responded to his blunt voice, the air inside the airship moved and formed an air current..

The airflow was soft and warm, like a wind soaked in sunlight, and soon a translucent woman made of airflow appeared before Kevin's eyes..

A woman with an unrealistically thin but beautiful body, and fairy-like wings on her back..

I could tell it was a spirit just by looking at it..

I heard that Kevin was able to control all spirits, but seeing it in person was surprising..

Kevin asked the spirit.

“can you help me?”

It was a request that lost context, but it didn't seem to matter..

Well, air is everywhere, so the spirit would know the current situation even if it wasn't explained..

Fortunately, the spirit did not show any signs of displeasure despite Kevin's sudden request..

As soon as it heard Kevin's request, the spirit seemed to disappear from its seat, but soon formed a massive air current around the falling airship and began to support it..

Significantly reduced fall speed.

Kevin shouted..

“It's literally just a waste of time. Even a spirit cannot continue to support something that weighs hundreds of tons..”

It was true. Even spirits cannot exert infinite power in the human world..

Oliver knew this too, so he took action immediately..

‘Just in case, it was a good thing I brought it with me..’

Oliver felt relieved and took out a branch from his arms..

It was not a natural tree branch, but a straight tree branch that had been touched by human hands, and was not an ordinary tree branch as it appeared..

It was a tree branch made from a part of the fake body that was a gift to Eve..

In other words, it was safe to say that it was a part of Eve's body..

“Eve.”

Oliver called Eve through a communication device attached to the inside of his shirt collar..

Eve, who understood the situation here through the communication device, immediately told me what to do next..

[Please reset the airship communication frequency. The Tower of Magic, the frequency of the Moirai School..]

It was a sudden order, but Kevin, who served as a military wizard and can operate airships to some extent, quickly reset the frequency by touching the communication device in the management office without delay..

“Does the frequency reach here??”

“It will reach you.”

Oliver answers while holding a branch made from Eve's body..

Kevin tuned in..

“it's okay!”

Frequency aligned with the tree branch made from Eve's body.

At the same time, an unreal amount of magical energy flowed from the tree branch made from Eve's body..

Like, Hwasubun.

Eve used the fake body to transfer the magic power of the World Tree to a tree branch far away..

I thought it was possible in theory, but I never thought it was really possible..

An enormous amount of magic flowed out from a small tree branch like sea water, instantly filling the inside of the airship..

But it didn't end here.

For now, I'm just preparing the ingredients..

Eve connects the frequency of the communication device through a large amount of magical power. The vast knowledge stored in the World Tree was also transferred here..

Arrived at the blueprint.

When the environment was set up, Eve shouted.

[dave.]

Oliver responded..

[Moirai School & Space School: Building Ideas: Airship Model FS-824]

At the same time, a large amount of magical energy that had filled the interior of the airship and was even overflowing was rearranged, emitting multi-colored brilliance, and began to be overlaid on reality..

The moment when the Root Net, the world of the World Tree, and reality merge..

Based on the information and images sent by Eve, Oliver not only filled the hole in the air sac ruptured by the explosion, but also filled the internal gas and restored the damaged engine..

Everyone on board the airship was shocked by the miraculous sight that did not feel realistic at all, and the falling airship stopped and started flying again..

***

In short, Project Idea, which was being researched at the Magic Tower, could be said to be an unprecedented magic that overlays the four Ruths into reality..

The result of bringing into reality the vast amount of magic and information stored in the World Tree..

In the past, Oliver first witnessed this magic through Lilith, and later tried it once in a dense forest..

And this was my second time using it..

The difference from the previous case is that it was not used in combat, but rather to restore the airship. This seemed to be much more efficient..

Normally, this would have been analyzed on the spot and recorded in a notebook..

But Oliver couldn't do that..

Because there were more pressing issues right now..

“How did you get here??”

Air sac management room. Oliver, who was helping Eve maintain Idea, called Rosburn and asked him about it even though he was busy..

really seriously.

It was because I didn't understand it that much. Why on earth is Rossburn here?.

Rossburn answered honestly..

“I secretly followed the teacher!”

Even though the boy was scared, he mustered up courage and tried to speak confidently..

It was a great attitude, but there was one thing I couldn't understand..

“why?”

“I also want to help.”

Everyone, including Oliver, was silent..

Even though Rosburn cringed at the silence, he did not give up his will..

“I want to help my teacher. Even though I may not be of much help, I will still do my best.-”

“-Ahhh.”

Oliver, who values ​​manners, stopped listening and grabbed his head..

It was a senseless behavior that should not have been done during a conversation, but it was also evidence of how much of a headache it was..

The place Oliver is going now is a den of warlocks who worship him, and one of the party members is a Paterist who wants to take advantage of this..

This is the perfect situation for a chain explosion to occur if you make a mistake..

The thought of Rossburn standing there gave me a headache..

Not really, really.

At that time, one of the causes of headaches was visiting this place.

“They said it would land soon. All passengers are expressing their gratitude to Mtop..”

A nun wearing a black habit came up and said.

The nun was an attendant who assisted Cardinal Roderick along with the paladins, and was calming down the people who had been confused by the warlock's terror..

According to Kevin, his skills seemed to be pretty good..

“······That's a good thing.”

“Not necessarily. All the warlocks are dead.”

Kevin stepped in and struck the candle..

As Kevin said, we suppressed the warlocks without much damage, but apart from that, we were not able to secure a single one..

Most die during resistance or commit suicide by taking poison..

Kevin explained the current situation, which was difficult to understand, and looked at the nun with the eyes of a warlock..

Her emotions didn't move at all..

“For now, let's just be thankful that no innocent people were hurt. We sincerely thank you all..”

The nun took a few steps and bowed her head to the wizards in the magic tower and expressed her gratitude..

Since we were dealing with each other, we all politely greeted each other in the same way..

Oliver was a bit distracted by Rosburn, so he wasn't as polite as usual..

At that time, the nun held Oliver's hand..

“In particular, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Zenon who prevented the airship from crashing. thank you.”

Oliver responded a beat late at the sudden action, and the nun smiled and walked away..

It was strange. The nun's emotional state had no ulterior motive..

But, the moment I held hands with Oliver, he gave me a note..

Naturally, deceiving everyone's eyes.

It was not a skill that had been done once or twice, and what was more interesting was what was written on the note..

[Beware of Cardinal Roderick.]
