Chapter 300 – 299. Prisoners (3)
“…”
Where are we and why are we trapped here?
Why are the wise men’s tower, the lofty wizards, the wizards who explore the path to true truth, trapped here?
A woman with green hair until she lost consciousness.
As soon as he recalled the memory of being overpowered by the Enchanter without being able to do anything, Master Calais gritted his teeth.
The disciple [Praya] Is nowhere to be seen.
Damn bitch, was she the only one who ran away?
As if reading those thoughts, a voice comes and corrects those thoughts.
“I didn’t run away, and I didn’t die. I’ve done my job I let it goShould I say it?”
“…!”
I hear a voice.
A familiar voice.
However, the voice of a cynical young man, not a middle-aged man, is heard, with a slightly higher tone.
Blond hair.
And dark skin.
However, it is a face that cannot be forgotten even if it lasts a lifetime.
Marcus.
And it was the image of a little boy who was tightly attached to Marcus.
Yeah- this is-
His son, and the one who killed him, was a monster.
Of course, before he could tell that story, his frightening warning first silenced him.
“…Well, you’d better be careful before you open your mouth. I’ve never let a bastard live after I killed him. First of all, since this is our first time seeing each other, let’s start with a full statement. I’m Clark – Dawn Bringer. Master Calais, “You are accused of collaborating with Urus.”
“…What?”
In addition, a ridiculous false accusation.
What should you do first to gain an advantage over your opponent?
That is, exploiting the opponent’s weakness.
What?
That’s because the goddess of Urus, Freyja, was among them.
It was arrested at the scene, caught red-handed, and even secured all the evidence that it existed.
“Nonsense…!! They say we are Urus’ spies!?”
“I know it’s nonsense, but what can I do with all the circumstances? I’m an outsider in the first place… It’s not me who holds you to these charges, but our Empress of Frisia.”
Being a spy of Urus.
Of course, after these came, they promised to help, Odin, the representative of Urus, and the Valkyrie, Einherjar, brought by Odin.
Even Elvenheim’s reinforcements jumped out as soon as they arrived.
What happens if you jump out without a fight?
Naturally, this is sufficient justification for accusing him of being a spy.
“They say she is not a good cooperator because she ran away without fighting. Thanks to that, my sister was left alone to fight and almost got killed.”
As mentioned before, Liz appeared in front of them.
Holding Lunares Poena, ready to kill at any time.
Only then did they realize that they were screwed.
Don’t panic.
Because you won’t die.
No.
I have no intention of killing you.
Right now.
“Yes, these bastards who said they would help, but ran away when Odin, the Einherjar, and the Valkyries came, what do you think, Master Calais? And, thanks to running away, only my sister survived from death, and I’m angry about this. Should I pay or not?”
“Now, just wait a moment, Margrave!!!”
…
Even if you tell me not to panic, it’s not like I’m scared of the spirit that Liz is showing in the first place.
“I am no longer a margrave, and my sister is no longer either. And now, at the Tower of the Wise, you have taken my sister without me even though she didn’t even ask for it, and she got into such a mess.”
“With such an army, what can humans do!?”
Well, this is true.
What would humans do there?
But Elizarote didn’t fight back because she didn’t know that.
“So my sister stayed there because she was an asshole?”
“Why do you hold on there when you know you’re going to die? It’s better to survive and look forward to the future-“
No, you’re flipping this like an idiot, you idiot.
I intervene before Liz gets angry.
“That’s why you’re not making any progress. This can’t be done, that can’t be done. You’re only obsessed with the things you see right in front of you, saying, “I can’t do it.”
Before Liz got angry, I was in front of them and their weakness.
Okay,
Laying down their eternal complexes.
“That’s why you were criticized by my father, and you were kicked out of Magia, you idiots.”
“…!!!!!”
Both eyes open wide.
If they could use magic here and now, if it weren’t for the room that controls their magic circuits, they would have already used magic on me.
I try to use magic somehow, but I have to try it for 100 days.
Does that work?
Of course, you can’t move the magic power itself, it will only load on the magic circuit, and you’ll fall down from dizziness.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why he appears to be evil and trying to use magic.
Because I touched their disgust.
These are mostly wizards who were expelled from Magia or left.
Even though Liz looks upset, her eyes widen in admiration when I show her how to identify their weaknesses.
You guys can’t even use magic! So you’re saying you’re calling yourself a wizard, but your pride isn’t hurt?
Then I admit it.
Okay,
Because they know what they are capable of and they have the will to learn.
And I tell them the story while holding in front of them a flame at the tip of my finger, a hellish fireball shining with a blue flame, Hellfire.
And when they realize what is in my hands, they immediately become contemplative.
If this explodes, the entire labyrinth here will be devastated.
Master Calais asks me with a thoughtful look on his face.
“Are you planning to kill us!? If you kill us, at the Tower of the Wise-“
“No, no, they’ll pretend you’re not there. You know that. You’re abandoned. So there’s no point in talking about it. And you’re still only seeing what’s in front of you. This room where I’ve frozen the magic. How do you use magic, you can’t use it, no one who is interested in it?
Everyone thinks the same. They all have the same eyes, hear the same things, and create wizards using the same methods.
Humans are not bungeoppang.
This means that it is not a mass-produced product that can be printed.
There is only one thing they have in common.
There is nothing at all about the destructive power and mystery of magic, and the questions and answers given by natural phenomena.Not interested.
They are not interested in principles, but are only interested in phenomena that appear and what is visible.
Magical power can truly help humans, but the owner of the Tower of the Wise created a huge explosion in Magia through magic, ignoring research on how to make it easier to use magic power, and focusing only on what he could see.
Grand Master Petros.
Before almost exploding Magia, GilgameshI heard it was blocked.
.
It is said that Gilgamesh crushed the wizards who were trying to perform the ritual and Magia mercilessly threw them away.
At that time, my father was busy fixing the Dawn Bringer, and later, when Gilgamesh called, he fixed the damn human’s accident, but when I recall he said it was too easy…
He is clearly his father’s subordinate.
And the things underneath are worth knowing.
“I’m only following the brilliant achievements that I can see, so I don’t care how I use magic, and I’ll only make flashy [Objects] That I can see. Even if you were a wizard, even if you were a wizard, you would have created things with magic and will, but that’s just it. “It’s just that you guys couldn’t make it.”
“…How long are you planning on taunting us? You rich people, you bastards!!!”
“Until the death.”
“…!”
If you think my personality is shit, it’s natural.
The same goes for their personalities, and among wizards, the only wizards with good personalities are those who are good at keeping contracts and deals. Other than that, personality and quality are fundamental, and tea bagging is fundamental.
If you don’t do that, what fun will you have living among magic that fails every time and explodes like hell?
“That’s because it’s fun. It’s fun to see idiots who don’t even know how to show off and then get destroyed like this, but don’t you guys do that often too? They just do what you used to do, so why?”
“You guy-“
“Oh, and my student, you only gave out as much strength as a real fingernail? You guys completely messed up that and you fucking assholes.”
“Clark Dawn Bringer!!!!! Kahk!!”
He tries to get up and attack me, but he grabs my neck and slams me to the floor.
“Why are you so angry? It’s like I said something wrong.”
It’s even more infuriating because it’s not wrong. Cancer.
Your problem may be violence to someone else.
But ugh.
“If you say that Magia doesn’t understand you, then you need to understand and develop more about magic than Magia, but you haven’t changed.”
It’s like a sand castle that collapses if you throw water on it. I can’t avoid disappointment unless I want to avoid it. It is clearly backwards compatible with existing knowledge, and there is no significant difference whether it was 10 years ago or now.
Tsk.
“I would rather learn a lot from knights who know that they will die but do their best to the end than you. What? Waiting for the future? Let’s talk about what you did well. In my eyes, you are the most useless.”
If I had fought until the end and kept my mouth shut, I wouldn’t have been this upset.
That’s not it, it’s so shameless that it makes me angry.
“I didn’t even ask for help, but you came here on your own to eat the soybeans spilled by the Kampfs, and when the Asgardian bastards attacked you, you ran away like dogs. What did you want to do by crawling back in again while I was in Elven Haim and messing around? “
“…Elven Haim, I will receive the artifacts from there.”
It’s not that I want to receive it, or please let me receive it, but that I will be guided.
Liz is dumbfounded, so she talks to them without even getting angry.
And very calmly.
This is what it means to calm down when a person is too angry.
Really.
“…Hey, did you guys leave it to me?”
“The Phrygian army was involved, and of course, the [Wise Tower], Which is a member of Phrygia, also has the right to make a claim.”
They’re just blatantly peeling the iron plate.
What is it?
The sea I expected.
Naturally, even though Eliza Lotte looks down at her anger, Nia lifts her hand and strokes her head.
Rania’s hand touched her while she was in her wheelchair, and as soon as she touched her, Eliza Lotte made eye contact with me and her eyes, and I grinned at Eliza Lotte.
“…!”
“Yeah, they’re asking for the loot… But, since not a single one of you was involved, is there any reason I should give it to you?”
“…The pace of your advance is insanely fast. Do you know how much preparation there is to do?”
Yes, once you start spreading it, you start spreading it openly and become shameless.
“Tsk, tsk- then is there any reason why we should wait for you?”
“Rules among wizardsProtect Clark Dawn Bringer!”
It’s a rule among wizards.
Nothing special.
If there is anything new, and the knowledge of new wizards.
I’m talking about sharing public things.
That’s what it says, but in reality, it’s a rule that no one follows to protect themselves or their family’s vision.
Well, that’s good.
“Follow the rules… Yes, respect the rules and follow them.”
“Wait a minute Clark? You’re giving it to these?”
“Women shut up…”
Kwaaaaang!!
Immediately, Lunares Poena, thrown by Liz, lands between Calais’ crotch.
And very quickly.
The reason why I separated and combined Lunares Poena to transform them into a dagger and a great sword, respectively.
She is very good at throwing.
In particular, he is very good at throwing small daggers and rocks.
Like now.
That’s why I adjusted it exactly with a difference of about 0.5cm between the crotches, and Callais blushed at that and closed her mouth.
After all, people are strong and weak.
How are you feeling?
“Again, tell me, would you like to see? Master Calais?”
“…”
And as soon as she closes her mouth, vitriol bursts out of Liz’s mouth.
It was these kind of people that Liz hated.
That’s why he said it himself that he fell in love with me.
“You little bastard. Shouldn’t a man say what he wants to say? I must have looked funny because I stayed quiet, but that’s what all you male Phrygians are like. You can’t attack when you should, and you’re either barbaric or something. “Or be servile. Do you have the right to dare say that women like me open their mouths with a spirit worse than that of my sister who risked her life to defend this place with a single sword?”
“Liz.”
“…Ha, okay. I decided to leave this to you.”
Okay.
I promised Liz.
Destruction to them.
Among these [Hero]If there is no one willing to come out and protect their families, they will be destroyed as planned.
Naturally, Liz agreed to that and I also made the same terms.
The reason why I restricted myself from saving them if there was a [Hero] Who could save them was because I thought that if a hero emerged even among these idiots, I wouldn’t feel bad even if I lost.
People don’t change, and it’s so boring to have no change.
Those things aren’t fun and aren’t worth saving.
If there is a change, and if I can be surprised by it, it’s enough to keep me alive.
Otherwise?
What needs to be kept alive is the greed caused by the damn beggar mentality of trying to rip off those who have it.
And I took the relics from Elvenheim without intentionally destroying them.
Or, among them, there may be magic items I made that were given to miscellaneous items commonly found lying around in Elvenheim, and even if I take them out and show them…
“Oh this is…!”
…
Unfortunately, I don’t understand it.
Stupid things.
Just by looking at it a little, you should be able to tell that it was created artificially.
Otherwise, have we really lost the concept of exploration?
It’s sad.
A wizard who should be seeking knowledge loses his power of inquiry by only pursuing what he can see.
Rumiera senior also shook her head when she saw their obscene behavior.
At the same time, I am watching the pen move and everything I do and writing it down.
Of course, what you do doesn’t change.
Nothing to ask for.
“I am not interested in your knowledge. But… Hand over to me the [Magic Circuit] That is most unnecessary here.”
“…What, do you know what that means to wizards!?”
“When did I ever say I would give it to you for free?”
“…You coward!”
“…Do you people who are trying to take this for free have a conscience? You are only one person. Is it that difficult?”
“A person’s life is not so easily thrown away and passed off as expendable!!! Even more so, to a wizard, a magic circuit is more precious than life!!! To give that away, are you – a devil!?”
That’s right, the devil.
No, bigger than the devilCrystal of [Malicious]Do you know how much I hate these wizards?
This is the end of playing with these bastards who are full of greed, incompetent in such matters, and have strong pride.
“Well, I think you guys are acting nice right now, but once you find out the [Power] These relics have… I’m sure a person would dip into them without hesitation, right?”
“What nonsense!!!”
You’ll know whether it’s nonsense or not when you see it.
And I took one look at Elizarote – then turned to Master Calais and looked straight into his eyes and laughed at them.
“Furthermore, you abandoned one person. You rushed in arbitrarily to offer help, but when you really needed help, you abandoned [One] Person. Odin also asked for just one person, and just like Odin… I am the most important person among you. “I’m asking for one [Magic circuit] From someone who doesn’t need it. That’s right, it’s up to you to decide.”
I take out various tools in front of them.
There are various types of extensions.
Knives, bats, maces, hammers, whips, batons, rocks, slings, etc. ETC… Anyway, there are a lot of them.
I throw away all the weapons that are useless to me and bet on them.
“Hey, you-“
“Yes. The senior said That, It’s a reverse version. If no one can come out, just have one person sacrificed. And… With that, how many people can[Will it get ugly?]“It’s fun to watch.”
This is probably why Nyarlathotep plays with humans.
They look down on others so much and value their own lives, so if they can’t sacrifice their own lives, they won’t hesitate to soak others.
Senior Lumiera hoped that only one of them would come forward and sacrifice himself, but a hero would come out and say, I will sacrifice myself, so please save me! If you were looking forward to this, I want to see the inside of these people, the dark and ugly appearance that is filled inside.
I have no intention of handing it over to you.
Of course, I know that the selfish, narrow-minded, idiotic Teiba wizards who are weak-minded and can’t even use magic right now won’t come out and tell me to take what’s mine –
I change places, another space in the labyrinth.
The main space where Ihot is located and where he controls the labyrinth.
It shows the [Breeding room] Where victims are captured, played with and reproduced.
Of course, they didn’t show the breeding scene, but…
In a gloomy, gloomy, gloomy atmosphere – I threw a total of 20 wizards here and clapped their hands.
“Now, let’s start the battle royale… Without [Magic], Just use your power to suppress someone and drag them to me. Anyway, none of you will step forward, right? And… That labyrinth. , Take a good look around.”
And the artifacts I brought out from Elvenheim.
Lift them all with magical power and throw them in every corner of the labyrinth.
A lot of that too.
“…!”
In fact, at this point, it may feel strange to spread this so openly, but everyone’s eyes are turned to the enormous magic power emanating from the relic, and they do not know its authenticity.
Even though most of them are simply magic I gave them, they are idiots who are blinded by the benefits, achievements, and splendor right in front of them, so they don’t even know why there are so many, and they don’t even care to look at them.
And I don’t even think about why I don’t need it.
That’s why I despise wizards who stop thinking.
Because I didn’t doubt, believed only what I saw, and was consumed by greed.
“It’s easy for the person who picks it up first to take one or two. But, if you stay there for too long, you’ll die?”
When I wink at Ihot, Ihot becomes one of my subordinates.
An egg-shaped member with countless spider legs appears in the labyrinth by breaking the wall.
Kwaaaaa!!!
But slow movement.
In fact, normally, it could move as fast as it wants to catch and stomp humans, but with my order, I made it move as slowly as possible, but at a level where humans would be caught if they didn’t move quickly.
“Avoid the egg monsters, catch one of you, extract its magic circuit, and offer it to me… Come on! How about it, it’s so easy…”
“Your Majesty, I am no longer listening.”
Oh, I guess so.
How can these words be heard in the ears of those who are already so blinded by greed?
But…
“If you get too greedy, you will eventually be killed by the monster chasing you, so if you don’t want to die, you will chase after one person like crazy and try to catch them. Now, the question here is, what will happen if the treasure goblins fight among themselves and encounter an artifact that they made hastily? ?”
“…It will be ruined.”
It was made that way on purpose.
So that even a small impact can break the spell.
And later, if they realize that it is a useless piece of junk, if they fight among themselves over it, if they think they have put a person in trouble, if they sell out their colleagues for a job that has no benefit, and if they use their swords to sell each other out…
“…Wow, something like this.”
Eliza Lotte then realized how I was trying to ruin them, and Liz nodded her head.
“I told you, George’s work is truly evil.”
Okay.
There will be no trust in those who survived anymore.
And the artifact contains Another [Trap]This is hiding.
“Actually, aren’t magic circuits useless for anything?”
“Ah, as expected, senior. Of course you noticed.”
“You just said that on purpose so that one person could dip it with your own hands. You don’t even have a magic circuit in your body to begin with, so you don’t need them. And yet, you are good at using magic.”
“…Cook-“
“…What I have in common while looking at you and your father is that when you decide to harm someone, you become cruel to no end. That should be the default to survive in this shitty world. And you are well aware of my experiment. “They reversed the method and applied it here, and it’s bullshit.”
“Kkeukkeuk, I did this out of respect for my junior’s senior. Do you like it?”
“I fucking love it. Garbage should be in the dump. This is a great dump.”
Lumiera is smiling happily and scribbling with the pen tip, her pen tip is rolling, and even the video recording artifact is taking video.
Meanwhile, their movement around the labyrinth begins to slow down.
I bet on their artifactsFirst trap.
The more you have, the heavier your body becomes.
And…
A monster is chasing behind him, and the magicians with low stamina who were also out of breath while walking with him look at each other.
Unless you have trained your body like me, my father, Lorraine, my older sister, or Lumiera, each artifact would have weighed 1kg by now…
If there are more than 10 pieces, each piece will weigh more than 1kg.
That is, 10kg.
A wizard with low physical strength is running around holding that.
That’s really interesting nonsense.
Rather than sprinting with that much weight and losing strength while running away, I would rather choose the only remaining option without hesitation.
And-
Kaaaaa!!!
“Huh?!”
“Ugh!! This bastard!!!”
They point their weapons at each other, and when a clashing sound is heard, the subordinate controlled by Ihot retreats from there.
This is what I ordered to fight among them and instill [Distrust].
Don’t touch the ones that are fighting.
Chase and eat those that run away.
I made him give such an order, and as a result…
All over the labyrinth, they are fighting because they don’t want to die and will somehow sell out the person in front of them.
“Die…!!! I want you to die!!! I will become a great wizard…!!”
“Great wizards are shit, they always fail-“
“I can’t die here!! You die instead!!”
“You damn old man-!!!!”
Everything that has been building up explodes and explodes with intense emotions.
They were slandering each other, swearing at each other and telling each other to die… And as soon as they saw them fighting as if they were going to kill each other with jerky movements, Liz, of course –
“Phew-“
Elizarote eventually burst out laughing as she saw their idiotic looks.
Well, watching other people fight is the most fun…
How tempting would it be to watch each other endlessly fall to the bottom?
“Are you a little relieved?”
“…Brother-in-law.”
“Laugh as much as you can when you see how far those idiots have fallen. Of course, you still don’t know.”
Because right now, you don’t know what you have gained and what you have lost because of it.
After the first [Trap] Is activated, the second follows.
It won’t be revealed right away, and of course, by the time they find out, it’s already too late.
I hope that these people lose everything, despair, curse their own foolishness, and commit suicide.
That is a fitting end for foolish flies who give up their quest and only follow what they see.
And did it happen?
At last-
One victim emerged.
Okay.
…
The wizard who seemed the most innocent and timid.
A girl with brown hair full of freckles, who had hesitated to swing weapons at each other until the very end, was lifted up toward the sky with her entire body thrashed.
Well, that’s good.
“Because a promise is a promise.”
So just protect it.
