Chapter 4 – Chapter 1
“Huh?”
Kaicent, who had automatically escaped from the world of images due to the death of the old man, looked around with a foolish expression.
Perseus- Perseus-
“Hick!”
At the same time, MingMing, who pierced the old man’s neck, returned to Kaicent’s nape.
Since time in the world of images is different from reality, less than one second has passed in reality.
The old man Mingming attacked had his skin split like broken porcelain, and soon began to fall, creating dust.
As all the bodies shattered, the broken fragments quickly turned to powder.
Had the weakly rolled robe not proved the old man’s existence, Kaicent would have mistakenly thought he was having a nightmare.
“What… Happened…?”
After being taken to a strange space, he even remembered the fact that he was almost killed by an old man there.
But after that, I felt a strong anger and the memory disappeared.
No matter how much I try to recall the memory, it doesn’t come to mind as if something has been painted over.
‘I don’t know, but I don’t think I need to worry about this anymore.’
Normally, I would have been frightened by the sight of the old man turned to dust, but now I just felt uncomfortable.
Unaware of the difference, Kaicent quickly erased the old man’s death from his mind.
“Uh?”
At that time, I could see a lobe rising in a diagonal direction.
When I touched it over the robe, it was thick and hard on the outside.
Kaicent, who thought he needed anything to survive here, grabbed his robe and spread it out to shake it off.
A thick book and a sharp dagger fell from the inside of the robe.
I checked more to see what was there, but that’s all.
‘This?’
It was books that stimulated Kaicent’s curiosity.
This is because, for those who have lived in a world where all documents and books can be viewed comfortably with a bio device, opening a book is the first time they are born.
First, Kaicent grabbed a dagger for self-defense and walked away hugging the book.
Hearing the current commotion, he thought that the beasts would attack.
Kaicent, who wanted to come to a safe place, checked the surroundings and began to open the book.
‘Something is written inside. Could this be a book?’
Kaicent, who had never seen such a primitive type of book, fiddled with it here and there as if it were strange.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen it, can you read it…?”
When I checked the contents of the book, I was able to understand what he was saying even though I had never seen the text.
‘Magic arrows. Move the mana circuit according to the written formula. Mana circuit? Is it like simbeop?’
Kwajik!
“!?”
When I stretched out my hand according to the picture and contents of the book and applied the inner workings of the simbeop that I had been steadily learning, the typified magical power penetrated the wooden pillar that I could only hold with my hands outstretched.
“Oh, that’s okay. It’s different from martial arts, but it’s easy to learn because there are many theoretical fields.”
If the old man had seen this scene, he would have doubted the knowledge he had accumulated.
For a beginner, a beginner who knew nothing about magic, to use such powerful magic.
First of all, to use magic, you have to build a circle inside the human body, create a mana circuit, and optimize the body to use magic.
However, Kaicent uses magic without building circles, mana, or circuits.
In addition, the power of magic varies depending on the quality and quantity of magic, and the power Kaicent showed now was similar to that of those called great wizards.
“Mmm… Next time… A vampiric touch.”
Kaicent, who quickly learned one magic, moved on to the next.
Originally, this book was a magic book in preparation for when an old man robs the other person’s body or a loss of knowledge.
Of course, I need to quickly regain my strength, so I have no choice but to write it intuitively.
However, even so, it is impossible for someone who does not know magic to read and copy it once.
‘I don’t know how wide the forest is. Don’t just leave it to MingMing, you have to find a way to protect everything.’
Kaicent is cowardly, not stupid.
He is threatened by beasts that prey on him and even encounters a murderer.
Didn’t the old man try to kill himself in a strange space where Mingming couldn’t help?
‘Besides, I can easily learn self-defense skills.’
No matter how intuitively it is written, Kaicent learns magic, which is a difficult subject, in a very simple way.
“Mingming, let me know if something comes around.”
Ming-Ming, mimicking the scruff of her neck, replied with a grunt that only the owner could feel.
Kaicent quickly learned all the magic in the book, ignoring the level of the Circle.
‘I think this would be too noisy. Let’s just remember.’
He passed the magic that seemed tumultuous like an explosion and focused on speed-reading the book, trusting Mingming.
‘It’s been damaged here and there, probably because it was handled roughly. Two… Grave… Woman… I can’t. I can’t read this.’
The old man was damaged in his haste to escape, and when he passed the last spells he could not learn and passed the paper, instead of the magic, another text was written.
‘How to make mana circuits and circles? Seeing how he uses blood, it’s like a sim, as expected.’
The middle of the book explains in detail how to create a mana circuit for magic and a circle that can be called an engine.
Although it seems clear that it is necessary to use the magic he used.
‘Uh? Wouldn’t it be inefficient to move the ki in this way? Why are you moving so uncomfortably?’
I couldn’t get rid of the thought that the mana circuits and circles written in this book were too inefficient.
‘Can’t we just find the best route by using all blood vessels? Is there any reason to go round and round like this?’
If you learn the simbeop made by your parents, all blood channels are activated, and you can use any type of martial arts efficiently.
In addition, collecting mana in a circle is recommended to use the morale of the corpse to collect quickly, but this was also difficult to understand.
All things in this world have qi, so why bother collecting morale from corpses?
Of course, the person who wrote the book seems to have improved this and that, but it was inevitable that it was inefficient.
‘The mana circuit is like blood, and the circle is like danteon, but I don’t think I need to learn this.’
Kaicent, who thought that the mental method he had learned from long ago was enough, erased mana circuits and circles from his memory.
Remodeling and improvement is one way, but it’s just a pointless waste of time.
Even if he succeeds in remodeling and improving somehow, it is clear that he will be inferior to his own simbeop.
If an old man had heard it, he would have asked how hard it was to create a mana circuit so that the body would not be burdened, but it was an incomprehensible sound to Kaicent, who had all the blood vessels open.
Kaicent, who passed the middle part like that, moved on to the second half.
“Ugh…”
As soon as I saw the contents of the second half, my impression was immediately frowned.
If the first half was magic, the middle half was a circle, the second half was full of secrets to strengthen zombies or skeletons caused by chimera recipes and necromancy.
Even the pictures were drawn in detail, so it was hard to see, but I didn’t know, so I erased the discomfort and read it.
I kept reading, wondering if there would be useful knowledge for self-defense, but until the end, only the manufacturing and strengthening of the corpses caused by Chimera and necromancy was full.
‘Trying to use a corpse for an automated bot… After all, the universe is wide.’
The management AI of the space fortress, now named Skynet, which is both his home and home, heard that his ego went berserk in the past, threatening to kill all living things.
However, his father directly treated (physicalizes) him, and now he has a rational and calm personality.
Perhaps this technology was created by a person who hated artificial intelligence AI so much that he did not trust the machine itself.
‘I should have asked what race you were. I heard that no one in my clan knows how to use Ki and Blood.’
After reading the contents of the book once, Kaicent burned the book through magic.
It is heavy to carry around, and the last one is a bad taste among bad tastes, so it is to prevent someone else from practicing it even out of curiosity.
Since I remembered everything anyway, there was also a mission to get rid of items that could be abused in advance.
‘The way is too dirty. Even if you understand that it uses corpses, to strengthen it by adding the corpses of other people or animals.’
The magic fire created through Kaicent’s chi emitted powerful firepower and turned the book into ashes at once.
“Feather walking.”
Then, to escape from the smell of burning books, he used the magic he had learned.
I was able to move like a planet with low gravity, and the soles of my feet, which were sore as if they would tear each time I moved, became easier.
The power of magic reduced the load on the soles of his feet by more than half.
‘I said that there was something like this in my father’s martial arts. If he knew it would be like this, he would have learned at least a martial art with utility functions.’
I heard a lot of bragging about how I learned this and that from my brothers, who never lost their motivation even after watching their father and the father of the parallel world fight.
At the time, Kaicent, who had no intention of fighting for the rest of his life, didn’t think much of it, but after being in such a quandary, he regrets belatedly that he should have at least learned how to self-defense.
‘But honestly, I like magic. You don’t have to fight close-by with this.’
Most of the spells were designed to attack from a distance, lay traps, or make it easy for the user to escape.
Kaicent, whose legs were already shaking at the thought of fighting close to someone, was better off this way.
Just like pulling the trigger is much less repulsive than swinging a spear to kill.
Kaicent, who had taken care of the aftermath, continued his journey to get out of the forest, moving his steps lighter with the power of magic.

Tutu tu tu tuk! Dump! Dump!
Huge spiders fall like raindrops between the leaves that are dense enough to block sunlight.
All of the spiders, as large as a human torso, trembled and closed their legs to death.
But before the spiders, there were several beasts who fell for it.
The beasts are all trembling and spitting up froth of blood.
Pasasasasak–
“…”
Moments later, a woman believed to be responsible for dropping the spiders landed on the ground.
She covered most of her face with a baggy, thick-looking piece of clothing and a large cloth hat tied to it.
She even wore gloves on top of that, so the expression wrapped up couldn’t have been better.
The only part that could be identified as a woman was the full breasts that could be felt through the baggy clothes.
‘Here… Where are you… ?’
Climbing her tree to find out where it was, she couldn’t hide her perplexity.
A great commotion arose as she witnessed a scene so different from the place she had lived so far.
‘I’m sure I was fighting the Heavenly Demon with the masters of the Murim League until now?’
Her last memory is the part where she tried to fight the final bloody battle as a member of the death squad that attacked the Heavenly Demon with the masters of the Murim League against the Demonic Cult that attacked Murim.
‘What is clear is that it is not a midfielder. This place can never be a midfielder.’
She had never heard of having two suns in her lifetime.
In addition to that, the gigantic circular orb stuck in the sky as if to eat her side had something that overwhelms the viewer.
Even if she roams all over the world, spiders and beasts she’s never seen before are a bonus.
‘If this isn’t midfield, what should I do from now on?’
Until now, she herself has followed the orders of the head of the Tang family.
Kill this guy poison that shit assassinate someone
She had taken it for granted until now, and she thought that she would live like that until she died.
However, as she suddenly fell to her place, not her midfield, no one knew her.
Embarrassed by her sudden freedom, she stood blankly for a moment and then turned her head away.
‘Someone is coming.’
It is not the movement of an animal, but the feeling of a human walking on two legs.
However, knowing full well that human malice can spring from anywhere, she carefully prepared to spray her venom.
Passasac-
What came out through the grass was a foreign boy with white hair as well as his eyes.
“Ah…!”
The boy’s eyes widened as if he had also found himself.
It looked like a frightened rabbit, and the tension was relieved without the woman realizing it.
“Hehe… Hehe…!”
The frightened boy then sprinted towards him, feeling more relieved than scared.
“Nu-sister…Help me…!”
“For a moment!”
When the boy suddenly came running, the woman hurriedly held her back and threw her body backwards.
“Eh…? Hehe…”
The boy shook her head with tears in her eyes, as if she thought she had been rejected by the sight of a woman walking away.
A feeling of remorse that she had never felt before, or that she thought had disappeared after her 16th murder, struck her heart.
‘What? Seeing this child cry makes her heart ache.’
“You can’t come close to me…”
“Why?”
“My body is full of poison…”
There have been many situations like this since ancient times, and she has always been calm about the fact that she is single.
But for some reason, it was awkward for her to say the lines she had done over 100 times to the boy.
Anyway, the woman and the boy who made it clear that she would be poisoned if she came close to her, went in full name.
“I’m Dang Seol-yeong…”
“My name is Jean Leslie Kaicent. I have the first two last names. Is your sister’s last name first or second?”
“The location of the castle? Do the people of Saekmok introduce such a thing…?”
“Isn’t one’s last name a basic education in the universe?”
“?”
“?”
As the conversation went on, the two people who didn’t mesh together tilted their heads as if they didn’t know what the other was saying.
