Chapter 341 – Holy Power Convergence Experiment #2

Unlike Delia, who was infinitely excited, I was calmly analyzing the situation. It’s good to use high-output telekinesis for holy magic fusion experiments, but it took a long time to experiment at normal speed.

I am not the only one who needs to change it like Gongmillet to make the experiment successful within 9 days.
Rune mages and nuns all had to roll hard.

“It’s not yet time to be relieved. Time is running out, so we may not be able to fuse Holy Magic until the Demon Lord’s army arrives.”
“But it’s true that there is hope thanks to my brother! We have a chance to survive in a situation where we all die together. If this is not hope, what is?”

Delia seemed to think positively of my experiment.
Other researchers seem to regard me as their last hope.
I wonder if I feel as if a rope has come down from the sky right before I die.

“I’m glad you think positively. I’ll start the experiment right away, so activate the reactor.”
“Yes!”

Delia carried out my orders as befits a long-time veteran of her researcher.
She was Delia, who immediately put the other researchers in the right positions and gave the nuns missions.

“Deputy Director, supply mana to the reactor. The nuns over there come here! You and our staff will inject magic and divine power into the fusion furnace.”

The lab’s staff and nuns gathered at the fusion reactor, which could be called the reactor’s energy input.
If magic and divine power were continuously injected into the fusion furnace, an environment similar to the heavenly world was created inside the reactor.

“Chief Delia! I lowered the shield and activated the heating devices inside the reactor. Please inject magic and holy power into the fusion furnace.”

Soon after, the deputy director reported to Delia that the reactor was working.
The fact that the shield is lowered means that the inside of the reactor is in a vacuum state and it is time to inject energy.
Receiving the signal from the deputy warden, Delia gave her instructions, and the nuns unleashed their power all at once.

“Father in heaven, watch over us!”

Unlike the nuns who chanted prayers, the lab staff were connecting a large magic core to the fusion furnace and injecting magic power into it.
Unlike the nuns who sweat profusely by releasing divine power into their bodies, the lab staff seemed comfortable.

In another world, a device capable of storing large amounts of divine power has not been developed.
It means that the nuns will have to suffer until the experiment is over.

It’s hard, but I can’t help it.

“Luke, it takes time to raise the temperature of the reactor to the limit. Is there anything you need to prepare in the meantime? Something that will help you use your telekinesis.”
“Give me one pair of sunglasses.”
“Why sunglasses?”
“To use telekinesis, you have to look inside the reactor using clairvoyance. If you just stare at it, the light will blind you.”

After a while, an intense light would be generated in the reactor due to the concentrated energy and heating device.
Looking into the reactor through clairvoyance is similar to looking at the sun with the naked eye.
I had to wear sunglasses so I didn’t go blind.

“OK.”

Understanding my situation, Delia came in with sunglasses from inside her lab.
The moment I put on the sunglasses without thinking, the people around me made a surprised expression.

“Huh…”
“Seo, you look different when you wear sunglasses.”

Do people look different?
What are you looking at?
When she looked at Delia in a puzzled mood, she was equally startled.

“Lu, Luke brother…”
“What, are you saying that you look cool? Surprisingly, do sunglasses look good on you?”

Does that mean you look better?
It was the moment I swept my head after misunderstanding.

Delia breaks out in a cold sweat and shatters my illusions.

“You look like a gangster right now…”
“Ah.”
“I’m afraid I’m tired! How can sunglasses look good in such a bad way?”

Come to think of it, I was a blonde tanned guy, right?
There is nothing strange about looking like a gangster when wearing sunglasses.

‘Are you watching, you bastards!’

‘Put snow!’

If you shouted these lines, the perfect gangster was born.
I could see the people around me who were startled, but I couldn’t take my sunglasses off.
I’d rather look like a gangster than go blind.

“Don’t talk nonsense, Delia.”
“Sin, sin, sorry… Uhhh.”

After catching her vibe and threatening her, Delia, who was always a prankster, apologized to her.
Isn’t it amazing that you can even get respectful words from Mesgaki?
I will have to wear it from time to time.

As time passed, the value of the sensor measuring the temperature of the reactor increased.
The rapidly rising temperature level almost stopped after reaching a certain point.
The deputy director reported the reactor’s situation to us.

“The temperature of the reactor has reached its limit. Now, Mr. Luke, please apply telekinesis with great magic.”
“Huh… It’s hot.”

It’s hotter than before.
The heat emitted from the reactor created a scorching heat in the laboratory.
If the air-conditioning system installed in the test site had not worked, people could have collapsed due to the heat.

Now it was my turn to go.

[Claire Voices]

Advanced magic that grants clairvoyance to wizards.
The moment she activated the Clairvoyance magic, she could clearly see the scene taking place inside the reactor through her sunglasses.
The divine power and mana heated by the high heat were emitting a tremendous amount of light.

I set the coordinates toward the inside of the reactor and recited a great magic spell.

“The power that materializes mind and will. Judge those who stand in the way of the great sages.”

The extra-large telekinesis generated by [Psionic Energy] Rapidly expanded inside the reactor.
After unleashing telekinesis, mana and divine power were imprisoned tightly, and pressure was applied.
Compressing and compressing again, it was inducing the nuclei of the two energies to collide.

“Delia-sama! The energy density inside the reactor has increased rapidly. The energy is compressed, so I think I can inject more magic and divine power.”
“Inject generously.”

Additional energies were injected into the reactor where the energy was compressed and the space was vacated.
I controlled my telekinesis and compressed the newly injected energies again.

“How’s the reactor? Is there any damage?”
“The reactor is working fine. Luke seems to have perfect control over the telekinesis. Even if the experiment continues, there will be no accidents due to the telekinesis.”
“That’s fortunate! If oppa runs out of control, we’re all doomed.”

If we fail to control the telekinesis, the reactor will explode and we will all be reduced to ashes.
However, [Psionic Energy] Could be manipulated more precisely than any great magic.
The telekinetic power of the great magic rank was projected into the reactor, but the device was not damaged.

‘The mana is being sucked out.’

Since he continues to use great magic, it is unavoidable that his mana is being consumed.
He asked Delia for a potion to replenish the mana that was being sucked out.

“I need a mana potion. From now on, I will continue to use great magic without a sigh.”
“Wasn’t great magic really consuming a lot of mana? It’s a potion, of course you can feed it, but you still can’t stand it? I don’t think the natural recovery power can keep up.”
“It’s okay. My magic coefficient is 3,000.”

After revealing her magic coefficient without explaining her every word, Delia was immediately convinced.

“Eh, the magic coefficient is 3,000? It’s almost half the level of a great wizard.”

The higher the Magic Coefficient, the faster the body’s mana is restored.
The mana potion of another world had the effect of increasing the speed of mana recovery there.
If his magic coefficient was around 3,000, he could continue to use at least one great magic even if he constantly ate mana potions.

After a while, Delia came with a box containing her potions.

“Here’s the potion.”
“Thanks.”

Gulp!

I drank the mana potion I took out of the box neatly on the spot.
The moment the mana recovery rate accelerated to the limit, the predicted phenomenon occurred.

‘The mana consumed by the Great Magic is restored again.’

The body’s mana did not decrease.
Even if it is consumed with great magic, it will recover quickly.
The experiment was able to proceed without problems.

After that, the personnel, including myself, continued to experiment day and night.
Even though she was tired, she was able to forcibly awaken her consciousness by taking holy water brought by the nuns.

It is not an exaggeration to say that they were put into the experiment almost 24 hours a day, except when eating or solving physiological phenomena.

Of course I am an exception.

I kept the magic even when going to the bathroom or eating.
Since I can use clairvoyance even when going to the bathroom, it is possible to observe the reactor.
Even when eating, he did not stop controlling his telekinesis by moving his jaw.

Even after a day or two passed, my telekinesis didn’t dissipate inside the reactor.
Not only the people at the test site, but also the lab staff all looked at me with mysterious eyes.

“Mi-you’re crazy… I’ve been using great magic for two days already.”
“Is that a candidate for an archmage? You have to have that level of tenacity to become an archmage?”
“That’s not tenacity, it’s madness…!”

I also think it’s strange.
The more I focused on the experiment, the more I felt, rather than draining my mental power.

“Under…”

I felt like I was doing something fun.
It makes me laugh out loud when no one else is watching.
If anyone saw me, I would certainly look like a mad scientist from a movie.

Could this be Wiseman’s talent?
The ability to maintain concentration without interruption if you set your mind to it.

Time passed helplessly.
This was exactly the 5th day after the start of the experiment.

It was the moment when he succeeded in maintaining telekinesis without a sigh for 120 hours.
The mana and divine power that had been under heat and pressure in the reactor finally began to change.

It is a fusion reaction.

‘Broken.’

The nuclei of energy that had been firmly united were separated.

‘Mixed!’

Due to the repulsive force, the magical and divine powers that were pushing each other were finally mixed.
The moment I witnessed the fusion reaction taking place in front of my eyes in real time, I felt a surge of emotion.

“Delia-sama! A fusion reaction is taking place inside the reactor! Holy magic is being born!”
“I can see it too! Miracles are happening!”

Other people besides me gathered in front of the crystal ball that showed the inside of the reactor, watching the moment when holy magic was born.
Everyone was wearing experimental goggles to protect their eyes.

“Ooooo…!!”

All the people who went out with me for 5 days cheered.
As if watching the scene of the birth of a star, the moment when holy magic was born was also holy.

Now, for the first time in humankind, we are able to transform Orichalcum.
