136. Transcendent Wizard (2)
“You mean it’s just returning to its original state? What are you talking about?”
France’s eyes widened in embarrassment for a moment, but she soon regained her composure and calmly asked back.
“Literally. “Everything was going according to plan, but that idiot lost his purpose and followed human nature.”
Was everything going as planned? Lost her purpose and followed human nature? No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand it.
“Wait a minute, I don’t know what you’re talking about. “Can you explain it step by step?”
France keeps blinking and asks carefully. The transcendent mage’s eyebrows rose, her puzzlement clearly visible.
“Hmm? I thought she knew something, but this is strange. “There are two people with the fate of witches.”
The Transcendent Wizard continued speaking, pointing at Kazar with his index finger.
“You were born with the fate of a witch and are cursed with the same knowledge as me. “Have you not even discovered anything about Jean Barenberg?”
Kazar, who was wondering what on earth this was while hearing an incomprehensible sound, was suddenly pointed out by a transcendent wizard.
“I don’t know if I can say this… ….”
Kazar looked at France’s notice. I’m sensitive because it’s about Jin. But now, in front of the transcendent wizard. You never know when an opportunity like this will arise.
“… What I discovered from Mr. Jin was a transcendental magic created by combining the magic circle of time and movement. What we inferred from that is regression and dimensional movement, but Mr. Jin didn’t just turn back time, he came from another world, right?”
Only then did the transcendent wizard smile brightly and keep shaking his head.
“That’s right! After all, someone with the same fate as me is different!”
The transcendent wizard, excited by Ka-Zar’s analogy, continued his words excitedly.
“The answer is correct, but unfortunately, there is not one question in this test paper. “There are a lot of problems.”
Franze, who was listening to the story, frowned at him.
“So, Jin of the past turned back time and came from another world?”
The Transcendent Wizard nodded his head and said, “That’s right.” He answered.
“… “Suddenly the content becomes too advanced.”
I understood that the ancient magic books contained the magic of time and space. That caused a lot of questions to linger in my head and give me a migraine, but that’s not important right now.
“What does that have to do with Jin dying?”
In response to France’s question, the transcendent wizard tsk-tsk, clicked his tongue and shook his head.
“You don’t know about witches who have a destiny of absolute evil. “I told Gene Barenberg that even if I burned everything, the person involved wouldn’t find out.”
A transcendent wizard who soon became pitiful. Kazar continued.
“I don’t know why Mr. Jin is dying. “Didn’t you engrave some kind of magic again?”
Previously, the magic circle found on Jin’s body was so detailed and reproducible that it could have been believed to have been created by a mythical dragon.
“Other than you, there is no one who can place such restrictions on Mr. Jin, who is a transcendent person. “Please tell me everything.”
Kazar glared at the transcendent wizard with straight eyes.
“Wow, I really didn’t know anything.”
Just right! The Transcendent Wizard snapped his fingers.
“I can’t tell you everything because it’s part of the contract. “I hope you can understand that.”
Everything around disappeared and was immersed in darkness. It felt like I had entered an abyss. An earthquake occurred in France’s pupils and her heart beat violently.
In an unexpected situation, Kale, Radea, and Kazaar quickly prepared for battle, but it was meaningless.
Not only was his body slow, as if he was moving in water, but no magic power or aura was flowing.
“What on earth have you done?”
Kale spoke with murderous intent. The Transcendent Wizard chuckled, laughed, and answered.
“Take it easy. “I plan to tell you everything I can.”
Just right! With one more snap of his fingers, the darkness cleared and a desolate ruin emerged.
Acrid smoke from the fire covered the sky, and the building collapsed and lost its shape. A landscape that would make you believe that the world is nearing the end.
The dust hovered in the air, making it difficult to even breathe. And the fishy smell of blood that comes in subconsciously.
“This…” ?”
Everyone looked around, unable to hide their embarrassment.
It’s a familiar place.
“… “The ecliptic group where we were just a moment ago.”
“I can also see the imperial palace. “To be exact, it was the imperial palace.”
Countless corpses are lying around, unable to maintain their shape. Regardless of children, women, old people, soldiers, knights, and nobles, everyone is dead.
“Oh my God… ….”
“Has there been a war?”
“It’s not just a hallucination created by magic.”
As she continued to look around, Radea discovered a human-shaped silhouette.
“Hey… !”
Radea pointed her finger. Cale, France, and Kazar all looked at that place.
A red-haired woman sprawled out on the floor. Her entire body has been cut to pieces with her blade, making her body unrecognizable. And she was on her knees in front of the man, her body trembling.
The man muttered something quietly. The sound was not heard in detail. Soon, as if he had finished what he wanted to say, he stood up and turned around.
“That person…” !”
Black hair. Golden eyes that sparkle like gold.
It was Jin.
“What on earth is this…?” ?”
Everyone was full of confusion. Why does the Transcendent Wizard show this scene, and what does this have to do with the current question? I couldn’t understand anything.
Just right! A snap of her fingers was heard, and the miserable ruins disappeared in an instant.
“Because of the contract, I can only show you this far. “I’ll explain the rest in words.”
The abyss where nothing could be seen until now has disappeared and the top of the tower has returned as if something had happened. The sofa, coffee, and dessert were all the same.
“There was a transcendent person. “Even though he took revenge, he couldn’t hold back his anger.”
The Transcendent Wizard chuckled and continued his words as if reading a storybook to a child.
『The anger grew day by day, and soon turned into resentment.』
『The transcendent person, full of resentment, destroyed everything at random. No one could stop him, he just had to accept the coming death and destruction.』
『In less than a year, no life forms existed on this continent. Demonic beasts, humans, and other races. Everyone was brutally killed by him.』
『Such a transcendent person spoke. I’ll make it all come back. I will help you fix the mistakes of the past.』
『The transcendent man full of resentment accepted the offer and turned back time. I reverted dozens, hundreds, thousands of times. It was a obsession that bordered on madness. However, it was not easy to change the fate that had been decided.』
『After thousands of attempts, the transcendent person who lost his chance received a new offer. There is a magic that a transcendent wizard named ‘Ladrien von Gracia’ has been researching for hundreds of years. It is unstable, but if successful, it can completely change one’s fate.』
The moment the Transcendent Wizard was about to continue speaking, “Dimension.”
Roaring! Kwaang—! It’s so hard!
Blue thunder broke through the force field and the ceiling of the tower and struck the transcendent wizard. It was an electric current that wouldn’t be surprising if my body turned to ashes…….
“All I can tell you is that I think this is the end. Still, unlike Gene Barenberg, I’m glad I can tell you at least this far.”
The transcendent wizard casually brushed his shoulders. Eventually, with a snap of his fingers, the broken ceiling was restored and the messed up interior of the tower returned.
“The Transcendent’s contract is a noble act of swearing to the goddess. If you violate it, you will be punished as absolutely as now.”
A transcendent wizard who keeps talking while giggling.
“I also needed Gene Barenberg, so I tried to tell him as directly as possible… I can’t let it happen like this. All I can say is this. “Just bring in Gene Barenberg and everything will be resolved.”
France was dumbfounded. She felt a migraine from all the information coming at her at once.
“Ugh… ….”
Kazar was next to me, massaging France’s shoulders.
“Are you okay?”
“I just have a bit of a headache.”
France looks into the eyes of the transcendental wizard, pressing down on his throbbing temples.
“So, the conclusion is that if we just find Jin, everything will be solved?”
The Transcendent Wizard nodded his head, “That’s right.” France continued to ask questions.
“Can I ask one more question?”
“What is it?”
“I wonder why you are helping the saint.”
The corner of his mouth went up when he heard Somire’s story, but he was a transcendental magician with a clown on his face. It was a laugh that gave me goosebumps.
“Giggles, it’s partly my fault that she ended up like that. “More than anything, I pray for myself.”
But, the transcendent wizard continues speaking.
“If the Duke had any brains, he would know that I am not helping him properly. “Kill.”
As expected, it was as expected. The Transcendent Wizard is only pretending to cooperate with her saint.
“Okay, then let me change the question. “What purpose do you have Jin?”
Tall. The transcendent wizard’s face, which was full of laughter, immediately changed to a straight face.
“I can’t tell you that.”
The transcendent wizard stood up from his seat.
“A witch destined for absolute evil, a witch trapped by the curse of knowledge. Everything depends on your actions. Find Gene Barenberg.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she snapped her fingers.
“… !”
The place changed in an instant. The floor France was stepping on turned into a grass field near the imperial palace.
“Khazar? Kale? Lathea?”
When she turned her head, she saw that everyone was safe. To her relief, France exhaled deeply.
“That’s ridiculous.”
“I can’t believe this kind of magic is possible…” ….”
While everyone was dumbfounded, only Kazar was serious.
“You can freely manipulate the magic of time and space. If I did that, it would be against the law of causality and I would be punished in some form…….”
From Noble mtl dot com
There are three types of magic that should never be handled unless you are a god or dragon: life, time, and space. However, that transcendent wizard can handle two of them freely.
“It’s strange. “He was hit by that thunder and was still fine.”
No matter how transcendent you are, it is impossible. It is a being that raises even more doubts.
“Let’s put that aside for later. Let’s go back to the duchy and sort out the information. According to what the old lady said, as long as we find Jin, everything will be solved.”
Kazar answered, “Yes, I understand.” Kale and Ladea also nodded and agreed.
“Let’s go back.”
As I left my confusion behind and started walking, Jassang Hagisirn came running towards me.
“Are you finished with your work?”
“Yes. Fortunately, the conversation worked.”
“That’s surprising. Transcendent Wizard…….”
Jasang chuckles and corrects himself as if this is not important.
“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty the Queen are waiting. “What are you going to do?”
France laughed. The answer is fixed.
“Please tell me that it is late so I will postpone it until later. “The prime minister is caught in the middle and is having a hard time.”
Jasian smiled sheepishly and said, “No.”
“Then I will tell you that. Are you going back right away?”
“Yes. Because I can’t be away for a long time. See you again next time, Prime Minister.”
“I understand. “It was an honor to serve you, Duke Descartes.”
The Prime Minister greets him politely and sends him off. So, get back on the carriage.
Rock! The wheels rolled.
“It’s complicated.”
“I didn’t understand a thing.”
“Me too.”
When everyone put their heads together with serious faces, France said.
“I’m tired. “Let’s take a break while traveling first, and then go back and sort out the details.”
Kazar, Kale, and Lathea also agreed to this.
“Of course.”
“Yes.”
“Yes.”
France quietly looked out the window. He came to treat Jin’s illness, but he ended up hearing incomprehensible words.
‘What happened, Jin?’
