Genius Warlock-Episode 88
The black light turned on and the darkness cleared in the room..
It was truly ironic..
But instead of getting lost in those sentiments, Oliver looked around..
The brick room, neither too big nor too small, was reminiscent of Joseph's secret altar in the past, and there were piles of dismembered corpses scattered around the room..
An unidentifiable pattern was engraved in the center of the wall..
Two crescent moons, an X, a candlestick and a cross drawn in a circle.
It was the same pattern I saw when I first fell here..
But the thing that stood out the most was none other than the puppet..
"It's nice to see you like this in person..”
Puppet was a very tall man in his early to mid 40s..
His skin was pale, his nose was hooked, and his cheekbones were very prominent, giving him the impression of a skull..
Oliver looked at the strange man and asked..
"Nice to meet you too... . You have quite an unusual body.?”
Puppet smiled slightly. She then got up from her seat and moved her bony hands like her skull..
At the same time, some of the remains of corpses scattered around the room moved and completely blocked the only entrance through which Oliver had entered..
It wasn't just a block, the teeth, jawbone, and skull were all hit in the air! Just one! It showed the intention of attacking and biting anything that came towards it. It was like the entrance to hell, as the mine supervisors said..
Oliver said calmly.
"That's great. How dare you build such obstacles in Meat Shield based on hunger and greed?.”
"Free thinking is the basis of black magic... . Still, it's amazing. I never thought I would understand once I saw it. I think he's about 20 years old at most... ..who did you learn it from??”
"How amazing.”
"What's so amazing??”
"My student said the same thing. A puppeteer named Glip..”
Oliver said deliberately..
I wonder if I can agitate the puppet?.
However, the puppet's emotions were just as calm as the first time..
“hmm… ...I don't know who it is. Sorry, but I've lived for hundreds of years and taught countless students. It's hard to remember each one. Since I don't remember anything, I'm sure he's a worthless guy..”
The moment Oliver heard those words, he remembered a conversation he had with the puppet master Glip..
I don't know anything else, but I clearly remember the pride I felt when I said I was the disciple of my master puppet..
Two people's conflicting emotions.
Oliver said without realizing it.
“……It's a little sad.”
"sad? what?”
“Glip had a lot of respect for Puppet. But, Puppet, you don’t remember, what can I say… .. It's a little sad..”
The puppet stared at Oliver and slowly approached him..
"That's fun. She doesn't even know what sad is, but she says she's sad. It's very foreign. Like an animal imitating a human... .. What is your identity??”
What is it? ..Oliver wasn't sure how to answer this question..
“....I'm Dave, the troubleshooter from Area T..”
"okay? Well, you'll know if you check it out..”
With those words, the puppet stretched out its hand. Hands filled with creepy black emotions.
[Thrust]
Fortunately, Oliver acted faster..
The black magic thrust that converts emotions into shock waves to push and destroy the opponent was first fired, and the output was increased to the maximum..
Because I instinctively knew that this was not someone I could deal with moderately..
In fact, the prediction was correct.
"That body... . What the heck?”
Oliver asked, watching the puppet recover its destroyed and torn body in an instant..
A life force that could not be thought of as belonging to a single person burst forth from within the body, and the wounds were healed, which was truly amazing..
But what was even stranger than that was the number of people under the puppet's skin..
"Ahhhhhhh———!!!”
"Save me! Take it out! Kill me 一!!”
"Kihahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha—!!!”
"Kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill!!!!!!”
"Kuehhhhh——!!”
"Kwaaaaagh———! I will kill you! I will kill you!！”
"mom! mom! mom!”
"Kueeeeeeek———!! Kuehhhhh———!!”
They cried out as if they wanted to escape from the puppet's body and pushed against the puppet's belly with countless hands and faces..
But I just pushed and couldn't get out.,
This sight aroused a strange and unpleasant feeling that could not be said to be of this world..
A level that would cause an ordinary person to feel pathological disgust just by looking at it..
Of course, Oliver was more curious than displeased..
No matter how you look at it, what was in front of you was outside the scope of normal black magic..
I was purely curious as to how something like that was possible..
"What is that body? Is this a combination of a corpse doll and a glutton??”
The puppet looked at himself and answered:.
"Let's just say half is correct..”
With those words, the puppet drew out a large amount of emotion from within its body..
Unlike the warlocks I had met so far, he extracted emotions directly from his own body... . No, that statement may be absurd..
Rather than being his own body, it was forcibly extracted from the countless people trapped within it..
It was a pretty amazing idea.
Combining a corpse doll and a glutton's bag, trapping a person inside and extracting their emotions?.
It was also outside the scope of general black magic..
"What on earth is it??”
"I really wonder what you are. I can't believe I'm not particularly shaken after seeing 'this'... .. Well, I guess we can take it slow from now on.?”
The puppet chattered and leisurely transformed his emotions into black magic, and without missing the timing, Oliver shot Hate Bullet..
The emotions I had been gathering were destroyed by Oliver's quick attack..
When it comes to firepower, it is clear that the puppet with an overwhelming amount of emotion will win, so when there is an opportunity, it has to be pushed as hard as possible..
Puppet said, raising one eyebrow..
"Oh, as expected, the sense is quite good……."
———deeply!
pabababat——!
Oliver's shadow spike pierced the puppet's torso..
Not only that, more thorns sprouted around the spike, inflicting additional damage inside the body, but it didn't seem to cause much damage to the puppet..
Even though his entire body was pierced by thorns, he did not scream, but rather broke the shadow spikes, escaped on his own, and recovered again..
Every time, the people inside the body screamed horribly..
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa————!
"oh… … . You're not just physically trapping a person inside a body..”
"answer… . Rather, is this the end??”
"no.”
Oliver said and slammed the quarter staff on the floor..
A black cube surrounded the puppet to the sound of a thud-thud, but it didn't just trap the puppet..
In the black cube, there were minions in addition to puppets..
This is a minion that has maxed out Las Boom and Explosion Fury..
"Minion, please.”
With those words, the puppet and the trapped minion exploded inside the black cube..
It was a huge explosion, and if it had not been wrapped in a black cube to limit the firepower, Oliver would have been swept away along with it..
Although the explosion's aftermath and smoke made it impossible to see inside the black cube, Oliver was confident that he had taken down the puppet..
Because I couldn't see any emotions.
However, it was an illusion.
Something pierced the black cube and flew towards Oliver..
Oliver reflexively fired a hate bullet and caught it, but surprisingly, it was not only enough to pierce the hate bullet, it also pierced through the black suit and hit Oliver in the shoulder..
Deeply one!
This is the first time I have left my family and suffered direct harm..
Oliver pulled out the thing stuck in his shoulder and checked it..
none other than a finger.
Puppet was shooting black magic with his finger, but before I could even gather my thoughts, I felt another black magic..
As I looked forward, the remains of corpses scattered around the corner of the room suddenly gathered together and formed a huge claw arm.,
Arms made of rotten flesh and fingers made of ribs rushed towards Oliver..
Oliver hurriedly increased the output of the Hate Bullet to its maximum and fired it, but due to its overwhelming size, it did not cause much damage and ended up getting hit..
bang————!!!
The claw arm, made of rotten flesh and ribs, grabbed Oliver and threw him against the wall with all his might, causing a loud sound to hit the wall..
Not only that, but the fingers made of ribs were tight, and if Oliver hadn't been wearing a black suit, he would have been turned into mince meat in an instant..
The spine is broken, the ribs are broken, and the internal organs are crushed........
Oh, it was pretty dangerous..
I heard the black suit cracking..
"..…How did you do it?”
"what?"
The puppet that broke the black cube asked back..
He suffered burns and much of his body was destroyed in the aftermath of the explosion, but surprisingly recovered quickly..
As if it's no big deal.
"For a moment, I didn't show any emotions. Up there, and here on the basement wall... . How did you do it?”
"Well, normally I wouldn't answer, but even in this situation, I admire your attitude for asking questions, so I'll answer. This is a skill I learned to deal with sharp-eyed warlocks like you. Surprisingly, it works well in fights between warlocks. Those with good eyes only rely on their eyes..”
"Did you learn it?... . Did you learn it from the devil??”
"oh..… . I have a good sense of humor.?”
"Hiding your emotions and your body doesn't seem like normal black magic... Did you get it by worshiping the devil??”
Oliver asked, remembering that Joseph's powers and talents were obtained through the devil..
There was absolutely no intention to insult, but for some reason the puppet's face suddenly became distorted..
It seemed like Oliver had unintentionally touched a sensitive part of him..
“..…Say it right.”
The puppet approached step by step..
I could see that his emotions, which were always calm and relaxed, were shaking with discomfort..
"I don't serve the devil... . just. It's just a transaction. When you do a lot of research, sometimes you get stuck... .. So sometimes… .. I only do deals once in a while..”
“….Oh, I see.”
Oliver answered, exploding the emotions he held in his hands..
It was an imitation of a fight with magic tower wizards in the past, and it caused a series of emotional explosions, shattering the corpse arm that was holding Oliver..
Puppet didn't panic and just snapped his fingers and put the broken corpse pieces back together..
But it didn't matter. Oliver was faster this time.
After targeting the puppet's body, additional black magic was applied to the surrounding ribs and teeth..
Then ribs, shins, teeth, and jawbones were embedded in various parts of the puppet's body, as if guns were being fired from all directions..
Burbubbbubbubbuk—————!!!
Thanks to this, the bones were densely embedded in the puppet's body, temporarily blocking the puppet's movements..
"Technology is good, but in the end it's just minor skills. These small attacks on me-”
[-Lars Bullet]
Oliver fired a hate bullet that compressed the Las Boom as much as possible at the crack in the puppet's body..
A puppet with a body full of bones had no defense whatsoever... . Or, you didn't do it..
Kwakwang————!
Although it was less powerful than the first, an intense explosion occurred, and it was even more powerful because it exploded inside the puppet's body..
As the smoke cleared, the puppet's condition was visible, and the puppet's upper body was half blown away by the explosion..
However, it made no sense.
His upper body was shattered by the explosion, but he was recovering at the same time..
‘no..… . That recovery isn't free.’
Indeed, it was so..
Perhaps because the damage was so great, a huge amount of the life force of the people inside the body was used up, which meant that there was clearly a limit..
If Oliver continued to attack like this, he could have been defeated..
However, the problem is..….
—Shut up!
The puppet's arm stretched out and grabbed Oliver's neck..
The grip strength was so strong that the weakened black suit was instantly broken, leaving Oliver in a state like a turtle that had lost its shell..
"I guess I've slowly run out of emotions... . Right?”
Oliver confirmed silently. I felt a stronger grip on my neck..
"It must be a shame. Well, warlocks basically have limits to their firepower. you… It's kind of fun, but that's it. He's just a widespread genius. That's enough.”
With those words, the puppet dragged Oliver in front of him and opened his mouth..
The mouth opens so wide that it can swallow a person whole.,
Oliver then saw something other than a human body inside the puppet's mouth. that..….
"It is the entrance to hell. I’ll swallow you whole..”
The puppet tried to swallow Oliver with its red-black mouth..
It was unclear whether it was real hell or not, but Oliver watched very carefully, as if he was fascinated by the sight before his eyes. I even felt like I missed something.
It's like returning home... .. Is that why? Oliver unconsciously reached into it..
And then I extracted the emotions that were shaking at the entrance to hell..
