Chapter 2385 – 2385. Modern Magic Challenge

I, who killed Muhyeong Kim, did not leave right away. Because Kim Moo-hyung was waiting for Remegeton. At this time, I was planning to kill Lemegeton who was coming to Korea.

But even after waiting for several hours, Lemegeton did not come.

‘Kim Moo-hyung, this bastard… Did you make a fuss? Either that or Lemegeton notices my presence and doesn’t come.’

Anyway, I wasted my time waiting.

‘If I had known this would happen, I would have kept them alive until Lemegeton came…’

I clicked my tongue and tore up the space movement order.

The day after I posted my resignation video.

I got out of bed, yawning, in a deserted country house far from Seoul. The time is 2pm. While drinking water, I checked the internet on my smartphone.

It was still a mess. The burning people did not know how to calm down.

Reaction to me? It became a hot topic for a while, but most people didn’t pay much attention to it. Because there were a few more serious agendas than mine.

“Military unit, preparing for a coup?!”

「President said: “The Republic of Korea is now in a situation like a light in the wind. Special measures are needed. Martial law is one of them.”

“T Corporation was attacked! What terrible things did T Corporation do?”

“Korea’s crime rate fluctuates due to the resignation of Seong Yu-jin, commander of the 8th Anti-Demonstration Unit. Is Korea really over?”

“A warning of a terrorist attack at the Gwanghwamun protest site!”

‘The world is so messed up that my announcement of resignation was buried.’

Still, public opinion could be confirmed. Public opinion that everything went well, public opinion that supports me and is concerned about a vacuum, and public opinion that maintains neutrality.

The prevailing opinion is that everything went well. People are afraid of me. On the Internet, people are calling me Seong Yu-jin, the tactical equivalent of a tactical nuclear weapon.

Uncontrolled Tactics Seong Yu-jin. This was my assessment made by the world.

It was a time when I was looking at the internet for a while and enjoying the messed up world. A video appeared and instantly became a hot topic.

It was a video of a battle between Park Son, the 4th battalion captain, and a foreign man believed to be Lemegeton.

The battle ended without a winner or loser. When Yoo Min-ha, the 3rd Battalion commander, intervened during the battle, the man on the Remegeton side left the scene without any regrets. The video also ended there.

‘This is a video posted by Lemegeton, not the Anti-Maritime Unit.’

Should the anti-cannabis unit go crazy and upload a video of their electric power being posted on the internet? There is no possibility that the photo was taken by a third party. They weren’t idiots and there was no way they didn’t know there was a camera filming them.

‘Do you want to break Korea’s morale by letting it be known that there is actually nothing special about the anti-magic attribute unit?’

Is it necessary? Anyone can see that Korea is a mess right now? To be honest, compared to Remegeton’s intervention during the broadcasting station incident, the damage suffered by the Hemp Unit was minimal. Even if you take into account the fact that the anti-horse unit has potions.

‘I still don’t know what Lemegeton’s true purpose is. It’s definitely not revenge for Seiji who died by my hand.’

I shake my head and check the battle video again.

The magic of 4th Battalion Captain Park Son is a flower magic that does not match his muscular appearance. To be exact, it is a magic that summons a magic flower.

The magic effect is different depending on the type of flower summoned. For example, sunflowers explode like grenades, and lilacs emit poisonous smoke. Would you say it is one magic and 100 types of magic at the same time?

‘On the other hand, is the opponent’s magic that temporarily creates a weapon?’

Sword, spear, shield, gun, bomb.

From cold weapons to modern firearms. It was handled very skillfully. He also created hundreds of swords in the air and dropped them on his opponent. It’s a bit hard to call it telekinesis. I would say it’s closer to an injection because it feels like it’s shooting out.

‘… For a moment. Ejaculation? Is this the magic that makes weapons?’

Feeling strange, I watched the video with more concentration.

I looked closely at the weapon created by Lemegeton, not the wizard of Lemegeton.

‘If you look closely, the weapon shows signs of use. There are scratches or scratches. The lower part of the shield here is slightly cracked.’

It is not magic to make weapons.

It is a magic that brings weapons.

‘In other words, it is highly likely to be subspace magic. It’s similar to the subspace I was looking for.’

I felt my heart pounding.

That wizard used many weapons. The capacity is much larger than the inventory I have.

‘Weapons appear like a summon, and the weapon used is automatically reverse summoned and disappears. Like the object summoning skill I have. This is exactly the ability I want.’

Already, due to the pressure on inventory capacity, there is the inconvenience of having to go back and forth between different worlds unless it is a pre-designated item. I coveted the subspace that wizard had.

‘The source of magic in this world is the grimoire. If I kill that wizard and take the grimoire, I might be able to use that magic. The possibility is… ‘It may not be even 1%.’

Just because you have a grimoire and magical power doesn’t mean you can always use magic.

‘Even if it’s less than 1%, there’s a chance, so isn’t it worth doing?’

I contacted Lim Hyun-ah with a light heart.

“There is someone I want to find.”

• • •

With the help of Lim Hyeon-ah, I found a guy with subspace magic. According to Lim Hyun-ah, she was able to track the guy down because he didn’t cover his face in the video. Even Lim Hyun-ah could not be traced if her face was covered with a mosaic.

He was camping in a tent in a picturesque place with a stream running down the river. When I arrived, he was sitting on a rock in the valley and playing with his fishing rod calmly.

Sensing that I was pretending to win, the guy stood up and let go of the fishing rod. The fishing rod fell and disappeared in thin air just before it hit the bottom. The guy turned around. He looked to be in his early to mid 30s and said, scratching his chin.

“I never thought the famous captain of the 8th Battalion would come visit me in person these days… This is surprising. No, he resigned, so isn’t he the captain of the 8th battalion? To say that, the clothes you are wearing are the uniforms of the anti-horse unit. What is it?”

“Unfortunately, the Director of the Order Bureau did not accept my resignation.”

“Oh, I see. I am Marco Colan. A member of Lemegeton… This is only a superficial appearance; in reality, it is the CIA. I am American. “I am spying in Lemegeton for my country and for the world.”

I thought I knew why this guy didn’t appear in the original. By the time Lemegeton appeared in the original work, his identity had already been discovered, and he was dead.

“Can you tell me such important information?”

“If I die here from you, I won’t be able to complete my mission, and it will be a dog’s death. Did you understand? “I am not Lemegeton, so I have no reason to fight you.”

“Do you think I will simply believe what you say?”

“If you want, I’ll let you speak to the CIA director. The CIA is also keeping a close eye on you, Seong Yu-jin… You might hear some pretty good suggestions. How about becoming an American at this point?”

“No more bullshit. I have a few questions, so please answer my questions. What is the purpose of Lemegeton? If Seiji’s goal is revenge, shouldn’t he target me? “You’re being too lazy for something like that.”

“The purpose is secondary. Lemegeton has been pursuing one goal since ancient times. Do you know the meaning of the name Lemegeton?”

The origin of the name is so famous that even the public knows.

“Solomon’s Grimoire.”

“Okay. A general term for the five books of magic said to have been written by Solomon a very long time ago. The purpose of Lemegeton is simple. A modern-day reproduction of Ars Goetia, one of the grimoires said to have belonged to King Solomon in the past and the ultimate grimoire. Those who did not hesitate to overthrow the country for him are Lemegeton.”

“It seems like someone in Lemegeton made an old witch prophecy or something. What does that mean?”

“Oh. How did you figure that out? It’s pretty amazing. To answer… I don’t know either. The truly important work in Lemegeton is known only to a few executives. “I’m not at the executive level yet.”

“You’re a useless guy.”

“Hey… “Aren’t those words too harsh?”

“Why did you film and upload the battle video?”

“I don’t know. I did it because Lemegeton told me to. Well, it looks like he was impressed by Luminous’ actions. Because of that incident, Luminous is now treated as a group of martyrs rather than a terrorist group in Korea.”

“Where are the other Lemegeton guys?”

Marco shook his head again.

“I don’t even know that. I am just waiting here after receiving orders to wait. These Lemegeton guys basically don’t work together.”

“I see.”

“Are you done with your questions? Well, I hope it goes away now. If the Lemegeton discovers you are here…”

He waved his hand. A blade of wind flew towards his neck. Marco was startled and lowered his head to avoid the blade of wind. It has a decent level of magical power detection.

“Hey! What is this?!”

“Can’t you tell by looking at it? “I am carrying out official duties.”

“This bastard… ! I should have said it! “I’m from the CIA!”

“Well. “All I see is a terrorist bastard?”

“… Did you come to kill me from the beginning? Did you know I was with the CIA? That can’t be possible… What is your purpose?”

I didn’t answer. It was too bothersome to answer with someone who was going to die anyway.

Five blades of wind are created at the same time and fly towards Marco. Marco summoned a shield. He was a great shield, bigger than himself. Kiiing! The blade of wind could not pierce the shield.

“The world’s assessment remains the same. You are crazy! “It doesn’t fit in with the anti-horse squad that fights for justice!”

“Noisy. Are you going to make a fuss even after you die? You only get one chance, so do your best.”

I had no intention of killing Marco right away. Because I was curious about Marco’s abilities.

But as the battle continued, disappointment grew. Marco was not even able to properly use numerous weapons according to the situation.

‘I only know how to swing the sword, and the shield is all about protecting the body. Window? I don’t even know how to hold a spear. Most weapons are for ejectors.’

Weapon ejection cannot be used often because it consumes a lot of mana.

‘The only thing worth looking at is… It’s a gun.’

Pistols, assault rifles, machine guns. Take them out in an instant and pull the trigger. It was a little dangerous to take out the bazooka and shoot it. I knew how to use things like grenades and mines appropriately.

But I didn’t like the fact that the other person was me. Blocking bullets with an electromagnetic membrane is not a task. Hidden mines or bombs? It was all detected due to electromagnetic waves.

“When are you going to use Ars Magna?”

“… Under. There are only a few wizards who can use Ars Magna, which brings out the true power of the grimoire. “Not all wizards are monsters like you!”

Incoming anti-tank missile. A thunderbolt fell and exploded in the air.

“… If you have nothing more to show, that’s it. Just die.”

Suddenly.

Marco’s neck was cut by the blade of the wind and fell.

I walked over to his body. In order to completely obtain the grimoire, I did not use fire or lightning as much as possible and only used wind.

‘I thought he was at the level of a captain because he fought on equal footing with the 4th Battalion commander Park Son… Was it a modern weapon?’

While Parkson basically preferred close combat, Marco preferred to spread the distance and attack from a mid to long range. If Park Son had used Ars Magna in that battle, the battle would have ended in Park Son’s victory.

‘Even if you strengthen your body with magic, bullets are a threat. This damn grimoire… Is this it?’

After searching the headless corpse’s chest, they found a metal cigarette case with a six-pointed star engraved on it. It is certain that you can feel the grimoire’s unique magic in the cigarette case.

After staring at the cigarette case for a while, I clicked my tongue.

‘Gacha is a failure. I have no compatibility with this grimoire. It would have been nice to know what the true power of the grimoire, Ars Magna, is. But… It would be a shame to throw it away like this. It’s also annoying to look for items similar to subspace in other entertainment worlds. … Should I do it?’

After thinking about it, I decided to do it.

My intuition was speaking. Do it right away. Surprisingly, whenever I felt this intuition, there were no cases of bad results.

I took out a pure white card from my inventory. In this world less than a minute passed, but in reality it took about 10 minutes to rummage through the container box.
