31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 376)
1year.
2year.
Before I knew it, I was 17 years old..
I'm now pretty deep into magic..
Among these, the area in which you are most confident is….
[Repeated learning awakens the secrets of darkness..]
[the darkness is near.]
[enlightenment! Awaken new abilities.]
[Passive: Awakens Dark Affinity.]
Wow!…
“…You succeeded. Congratulations.”
“Did you do well??”
“…There is no need to compare with others. All you have to do is to quietly pursue.”
“yes.”
Darkness mainly involves strengthening the body or controlling and changing things around us. Lastly, he said that summoning is the most important attribute..
Snowman recognized me.
“Have you ever killed someone??”
“…yes?”
“Why are you surprised? Although magic developed with a vain justification, isn't it ultimately a science that kills people??”
“…Not yet.”
“It's a shame.”
Snowman muttered quietly..
“You can learn it step by step. Tonight, we'll be entering the lab together, so prepare yourselves..”
“The lab?”
“Yes, it will also help treat your chronic illness..”
Since it would allow me to live without worrying about seizures for the rest of my life, I had to follow suit..
“All right.”
the snowman trusted me.
I instinctively learned not to get on his nerves..
As for the lab he brought up first, I never once brought it up. I never showed any interest.
‘What on earth is in the lab?….’
That night, I opened the door to the lab with him..
Cheolkeong…
Meeeee profit…
Laboratory leading underground.
‘…this.’
The moment I took my first step, an unpleasant smell wafted through me. A smell that brings back memories of the past.
‘…It smells like blood and flesh..’
It was unpleasant, but I didn't show it.
I followed him with an expressionless face..
He kept stealing glances at my face..
Like they're watching my facial expressions.
And soon I was satisfied.
The scenery of the basement unfolded.
‘…crazy bastard.’
The reason he didn't look at the Snowman with contempt was because he sensed that danger was near..
The scene in the basement was like hell..
Blood was splattered everywhere and there were lives groaning..
“…What kind of experiment are you doing here??”
“To be precise, we are conducting research related to magical power and the strength of the human body..”
I approached the humans who became test subjects..
People with hazy eyes tied to different experimental tables.
“It's a magic blood vessel..”
“magic blood vessels?”
“Yes, the circulation of magic power is like a human fingerprint. Each person uses a different path and creates a different path..”
Snowman continued to explain with eyes filled with emotion..
“What would happen if everyone used the same path??”
“…….”
“It uses blood vessels, which are organs already created in the body. It guides the magic power to flow there..”
“what does it lead to?”
“Humans become stronger by accumulating knowledge. Magic is like that too. Accumulated knowledge can create stronger magic techniques. However, in the end, only those who can create such a powerful flow of magic can handle such powerful magic. Do you know what that means??”
I saw the snowman's eyes.
You can recognize the eyes of a wicked person at a glance, so why?….
his eyes were calm.
The person who was doing this didn't have the eyesight to have it..
“It's all nonsense! entire! Ultimately, only great people can perform great magic. Because ordinary creatures cannot withstand the flow of magical power. but… If we can create a standardized flow of magic power?”
dry words.
“It wouldn't be unreasonable for everyone to practice great magic..”
“…So you're using blood vessels? how?”
“A substance called atromyl was discovered..”
“atromil?”
“Atromil does not dissolve or absorb magic power. The funny thing is that magic likes this guy and follows him around. It's a very special substance... What if this material wraps the inner walls of blood vessels? No, if it flows with blood?”
“…….”
“Just by breathing, you can achieve the circulation of magical energy throughout your body..”
It was none of my business to know whether many great wizards would be born. The important thing is why do we even have to do this experiment?.
“Why are experiments….”
“Atromil has one problem: it stops the heart..”
“…….”
“Quite a few of them have already died. I want to fix that..”
“…All right.”
In short, it means crazy..
Instead of talking to him, I looked at the condition of the test subjects..
Two of the men and women were fine, and one man had a rag-tag body..
‘Ugh….’
All blood vessels have been ruptured.
“porridge… female….”
It was amazing to be alive..
It was disgusting and I was angry, but I couldn't defeat Snowman. I asked with an expressionless face..
“Are you disappointed??”
“Are you saying disappointment??”
“Yes, I am asking you if you are disappointed because I am this kind of person..”
Snowfall shook her head..
Contrary to my true intentions.
“Don't you just do what you need to do because you need to??”
The snowman paused for a moment..
“Pfft… Hehehe….”
“why are you like that?”
“Because I wanted to see people properly. It would be nice to conduct research together in the future..”
“yes.”
“The purpose of today was to give people a tour of the lab..”
If I had made a mistake, I could have died here today. It's a shame because I was good at managing facial expressions.…
“however… How did these test subjects get here??”
“They are all evil people.”
“knave?”
“I'm paying the price for my sins. They are the ones who sinned against me..”
“which….”
“This guy is the hitman who accepted my assassination request, and this guy is….”
Snowman recited the identities of the two men..
I didn't think he was a particularly evil person..
No, he might be a villain..
According to the author's standards,.
“And this child….”
short haired women.
Calluses on hands and body feeling elastic.
‘It's a prosecutor.’
I checked the woman's face..
“…….”
“The child of the tent. Although he was still immature, he was successfully captured. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk….”
“tent….”
“Do you know about the tabernacle??”
“I do not know… . what kind of group are they?”
“They're hypocrites. These are the people who dare to talk about justice and hide in the dark to judge..”
“…Are you strong??”
“…Strong. So they are dangerous guys..”
The snowman smoothed the woman's hair..
“This kid also has dangerous powers..”
“which….”
“He read my moves in advance. It's an unknown force, so we need to check it out..”
“she is….”
“This is the last order. I think it's the most interesting, hehehe….”
“okay….”
“why are you like that?”
I answered with an expressionless face..
i wore a mask.
A mask that never lets you get angry.
“no. For a moment, I remembered the old days..”
“Okay, let's go out..”
The woman was Yurim..
Able to know.
The facial features, the connection to the veil, and even the ability to read movements in advance..
Everyone was saying that that woman was Yurim..
And fate told me to choose.
that morning.
I made a choice..
before it's too late.
Cheolkeong…
As I release the restraints, a woman with bleary eyes hugs me..
“uh… uh….”
“Yurim. Come to your senses, Yurim.!”
The gun returned to Yurim's eyes..
“river… new year? me… here… why… ah… iced coffee!”
This is a terrible laboratory.
“I don't have time to explain. leave.”
“why… If you do this, you….”
I'm going to die.
No, you could become a test subject instead..
But I can't stop choosing.
Because I learned it from Santos..
- It's natural, it's natural. That itself is the reason.
“Of course, we're friends.”
“new year….”
“Leave, hurry! Run down to the west. Before he notices!”
sent Yurim back.
Other test subjects were also released..
One was already dead, and the other was captured soon after..
“…You did something fun.”
“crazy bastard.”
“Is this the guy sent by the curtain??”
“Like a tent... What do you know??”
“Then why did you do this??”
Why?.
Why you can remain calm even in the face of death.
“Because he's a man?”
Because Santos taught me that..
“It's a little early for this, but I can't help it..”
Snowman grinned..
“I have no choice but to inject atromil into your veins..”
Wow!-!
I tried to cast a spell, but it didn't work.
“It's cute.”
[Aggras uses a magic lock.]
[Force silence on those you have signed a contract with.]
“…You are not a snowman?”
I thought I knew.
Why didn't he have the eyes of an evil person?.
Because he used someone else's body.
“You mean the guy who was the owner of this lodge??”
“…also.”
“Hehehe… I'm Agras. If this experiment is successful, I will use you as my next body..”
I let out a weak sigh..
“I can't see your face here either..”
“…what?”
“…ah?”
I think I just said something.
I'm not sure because it's a crazy situation..
Cheolkeong…
This time, I was tied to the testing table where Yurim was..
“Anesthesia….”
“A guy who doesn't use evil once will be killed. ruler… go in.”
Sooooooo…
The needle pierced the skin and invaded the blood vessel..
Feeling like there is ice in your veins.
Even though I had become accustomed to all kinds of pain, the pain was so intense that my hair stood on end..
“Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!”
“Die in agony, or survive and become my body..”
Why did I become involved with this terrible wizard? And why did you think Yurim was a man?.
Yurim…
‘Did you escape well?….’
This is the second time I have saved him, or rather, her. There was no reason. She just did it because she felt she had to..
‘ah….’
I felt my consciousness slipping further and further away..
[The blood of the beginning comes into play.]
[Blood vessels fuse with atromil.]
[enlightenment! Awaken new abilities.]
[Passive: Awakens Hextech Veins.]
From the beginning… blood?
* * *
I became a doll.
In fact, Agras himself was extremely happy, as if he did not know that he would succeed..
However, it seemed like it took time to move the body. He did strange things, such as taking me out of the laboratory, washing me, putting me in good clothes, and nourishing me with high-quality meals..
“With this, Agras will stand shoulder to shoulder with the archmages..”
I was overwhelmed by him and couldn't act properly. Is my body being taken away like this?.
‘haha… It's amazing.’
17Could it be possible to experience such a bizarre fate at the age of one year?.
Perhaps, if you die like this, you might not be reincarnated as a human and instead become a ghost or a demon..
Still, I had no regrets about what I did. Everything goes as it should. It was fate that I met Yurim again..
‘Even if I hadn't been saved, I would have suffered the same fate anyway.….’
Even in times like these, twisted positivity was effective..
However, when Agras was away for a while,.
Clang-!
The window broke and someone came in..
Someone quickly flew towards me.
“Who are you?!”
[Aggras uses the black hand.]
[The black hand takes aim at the target..]
Whirly Whirly-!
The black hand only hit the ground and did not reap any results..
Kwasik…
I fell down with the chair and someone was holding my neck..
“Black… I lived… was alive….”
Is this voice, Yurim?.
“…Yurim.”
“Let's go back, let's go back together….”
I can't do that..
There's a devil living here.
Agras recognized his opponent and snorted..
“She is the woman of the tent. You must be out of your mind to come back on your own feet?”
Yurim helped me up and said,.
her face stained with tears.
she said to Agras.
“My mind is fine. and… I didn't come alone.”
smart…
pot-!
Agras' head turned towards the door..
A sound was heard from beyond the door..
smart…
“Are you there?.”
man's voice.
and.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
the sound of a door breaking.
clearly visible from here.
A man missing a tooth appeared smiling brightly..
“Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom urgently. Hehehe….”
Are you crazy?.
‘no… I'm not crazy.’
The quiet energy felt in the voice.
And even eyes that resemble stars.
‘where… I think I saw it….’
The man seemed to be quite famous..
Because Agras was embarrassed..
“you, you….”
The expression disappeared from the man's face..
At that moment, there was no bright person.
An extremely heavy man was standing there..
“Boy, you've been through a lot.”
Where did you see this guy?.
“If you're in pain, it's okay to cry.”
“eww… eww….”
“Is even crying painful? Okay, let's go back together. boy.”
Aghras spoke, flicking his tongue like a snake..
“He's mine, where. No matter how much you….”
“God has prepared me here….”
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Waves flowed from the man's body..
At that moment, another man's voice rang like a bell in my head..
- Well then, this talkie. The last one… I will laugh.
The man's name is Toki. I've never met him before, but somehow I felt like I knew his name..
"My purpose is here."
Immediately, a shock as if my brain was being crushed hit me hard..
“Ahhhhh!”
