Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Lighthouse (2)

“Keep an eye… … .”

It was a very plausible name for those who assisted the lighthouse keeper.

Speaking of maintaining one’s view, it was probably related to the lighthouse keeper’s duty to observe the approaching disasters from the open sea.

“We know what we have to do and we have never hesitated once.”

As Amon said that, he slightly turned his head and looked up at the moon rising through the fog.

“But even so, I had to go through countless trials and errors like groping in the dark, and I had to shed a lot of blood in the process.”

Amon’s eyes slowly looked back at Lennok, revealing an unconcealable feeling of grief.

“Even the smallest clue, even the faintest hope… … I always thought how great it would have been if he had seen it through his eyes and left it.”

“… … .”

“Why did he leave his last message to an outsider like you? I wanted to find out. It was my petty greed.”

“I’m sorry, but the words left by the Ascendant do not contain what you want.”

Lennok replied.

“I just talked a few things about my personal circumstances.”

He slowly raised his head while biting on the tobacco.

The dimly glowing embers at the tip of the lips are insignificant compared to the starlight shining in the night sky.

At the end of this long journey, which one should be the light that Lennok can leave behind?

Lennok was on his way to see the lighthouse keeper to get a peek at the answer.

“So where is the lighthouse now?”

In order to meet the lighthouse keeper, you will eventually have to visit the lighthouse.

Even in the Dominion of Philenom, there was also some interest in the ancient ruins that were shrouded in a veil.

But instead of answering Lennok’s words, Amon grabbed the steering wheel and lifted the wingboat high into the sky.

“I think it would be better to hear from him directly.”

Immediately after that, the clouds in the night sky lifted and the moon appeared brightly.

Lennok’s mouth dropped open as he realized that Amon’s wingboat was flying toward the moon.

oh oh oh… … .

With the soft wind brushing my ears, fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the moon.

awesome… … !!

At the same time, a huge hole rising from the center of the moon faces the two as if their eyes were opened.

A mysterious scene as if a passage had opened toward the moon.

However, Lennok understood exactly what had happened based on his powerful magic sensitivity and intuition.

“A group of barriers that can be accessed using the concept of the moon as a medium. It’s very… … It’s an elaborate and high-level barrier technique.”

“… … You have a great eye.”

Lennok’s thoughts did not stop there, but began to go further.

The space had been completely hidden from even Lennok’s notice until Amon had just opened the door.

A barrier created by a very high-level barrier master over a long period of time. But if this is possible, is there any reason to use the moon as a medium?

Lennok sensed the answer intuitively and involuntarily admired it.

“I see… … . Did the lights of the lighthouse illuminating the open sea signify the reflected light of the moon orbiting outside the planet?”

“… … .”

“Because the lighthouse that observes the apocalypse moves with the moonlight as power, the moon was used as a medium even when hiding the lighthouse’s location. It’s the first time I’ve seen a celestial magic ceremony like this… … .”

The astronomical formula, which takes a lot of time to prepare and has a very slow activation time, has various disadvantages such as having to endure enormous costs, but it is a special technique that far surpasses other techniques in terms of size and weight class. famous for

If they are hiding the location of the lighthouse through the satellite called the moon, they are probably performing a gigantic spell that covers all areas of the Dominion.

It was not surprising that Lennok, already accustomed to the Dominion’s magical powers, did not notice.

And that meant that a drug lord couldn’t use the same tricks as the Watchers when hiding his safe.

Amon looked back at Lennok with a pale complexion.

“Now I can guess why Cheon-Gyeon-nim chose you.”

“is it?”

“… … I won’t say more about this. All that remains may be with him.”

The two immediately followed a crack in the moon’s surface to inner space.

At first glance, it feels like going inside the moon, but in fact, what is hidden here is another type of floating island.

In terms of scale, it is not as big as the seven largest islands in the Dominion Colony, but it is still wide enough for hundreds of people.

And in the middle of that meadow, a huge tower collapsed obliquely.

Judging from the circumference and length of the tower, it is not unusual for it to rise high enough to pierce the sky.

But now, the upper part of the tower has completely disappeared, leaving only the middle and lower parts lying tied to the ground.

An unknown material with a black and bluish tinge. The tower, which seemed to have been made using ore with a fairly low magical projection rate, had already lost its original shape, but maintained its dignified appearance.

“… … .”

Amon said nothing and guided Lennok into the tower without a word.

Unlike the battered exterior of the tower, the inside was quite tidy. In the spacious entrance lobby, several people are busy walking around looking for something to do.

It was a little different from Lennok’s idea of imagining a gathering of seekers away from the world. The Watchers’ organization seemed to be busier and functioning normally than Lennok thought.

When Lennok asked Amon about this, he replied as though it didn’t matter.

“No matter how much you move from the lighthouse as the starting point, money doesn’t come out of the ground. We are encouraging various activities even to keep the center of the organization and maintain the original purpose.”

“Aren’t you receiving any kind of support from the government of the Dominion?”

Hearing those words, a smile spread across Amon’s face for the first time.

It was an attitude that made it seem that Lennok seemed to be the same person as himself.

“Even though the lighthouse is located on Dominion territory, we are not bound by the Dominion.”

“… … .”

“A relationship in which each other does not interfere with each other at all. That’s why Cheon Gyeon’s last outing became such a hot topic. Although he was unusually interested in the secular world, no one knew that he would be directly involved in negotiating a truce with the Balkans.”

Amon said as if passing by.

“Everybody believed there must be a different reason than that.”

I didn’t have to say who the other reason was referring to now.

I passed through the spacious lobby and headed to the top floor of the tower. Contrary to expectations, it was quite pleasant.

Lennox also had his mana pumped up, but I didn’t see anything special except that the wind noise was unusually loud.

Passing through the long hallway where the warm wind blows, you come out into a spacious hall where you can breathe.

end of the hall. A huge blue three-eyed crest erected farthest from the entrance.

A girl sat on a large chair beneath the clear lighthouse keeper’s symbol, waiting for someone with her eyes closed.

Amon didn’t say a word and turned around to give way to Lennok.

Lennok walked along a wide carpet that seemed to be 5 meters on each side and headed for the girl.

The girl didn’t even think to open her eyes, even though she must have known that Lennok was approaching.

I don’t feel any magic power, but I still feel like the air around me is calming down.

It didn’t even feel like she was breathing.

The feeling of emptiness, as if facing an empty void, even though it was clearly seen with both eyes and sensed with magical power.

A young girl who looks only around ten years old. Is this what the next lighthouse keeper will look like?

The first to speak was the girl.

“I thought you wouldn’t come.”

“Why?”

“Since that day, no answer has come.”

she answered.

“There are many gifted wizards in the world who no longer attach meaning to the word ascension. On the contrary, there are those who dismiss such statements as false rumors and consider them a waste of time.”

“… … .”

“I just thought Evan was one of them.”

“Or I already thought I was in an organization with completely different goals than you guys.”

This time the girl kept her mouth shut.

Lennok looked around and shrugged.

“Are you going to stop and talk?”

“sorry. However, because the ancient magic applied to this space does not allow other objects to stay for a long time… … You can even sit on the rug if you like. I will clean it every day so it will be clean.”

“… … .”

There was a feeling that the atmosphere had suddenly become lighter, but Lennok had no intention of sticking his butt to the floor like she said.

This seat is definitely a place to listen to her words and decide the future course of action.

I didn’t mean to put pressure on the lighthouse keeper, but it shouldn’t look easy either.

Instead of sitting down, Lennok brought up another story.

A blue trinocular appeared behind the girl.

The sentence that came to mind with the three overlapping pupils is probably the symbol of the organization Amon was talking about, the ‘Blue Eye’.

“I don’t think there was any talk of an organization when they contacted me. It would not have been possible to create an organization of this scale in the meantime.”

“That’s right.”

The girl answered calmly.

“The organization I am leading, the Eyes of Cheong, is a society formed by gathering watchers who follow me, who are not able to fully fulfill the duties of a lighthouse keeper.”

As soon as she opened her eyes slightly, a huge amount of blue light flowed from both eyes.

“Let me formally introduce myself.”

“… … “

The chief who guides the blue eyes. Lapis Palseer. He is the only blood relative of Madrea Falseer, the Thousand Dog, and is now a lighthouse keeper who has inherited his will.”

“It’s Evan. I work at Rabatenon University.”

Lennok hadn’t forgotten what identity he had to reveal here.

The moment when the girl Lapis contacted Lennok was definitely when Lennok participated in the conference as an assistant professor at Rabatenon University, in Evan’s identity.

It’s Ban and Lennok, and he’s never officially revealed information to Lapis.

The reason she called Lennok now was because she realized that he had been in contact with Madrea Falseir.

“The reason I didn’t mention the name Blue Eye in our brief conversation the other day was because I thought it was unlikely that Evan-nim would come to the Dominion.”

Lapis said calmly.

“To be precise, I thought, as I said earlier, that you might not be interested in this proposal at all.”

“… … .”

“At that age, he is already an assistant professor at Rabatenon University, which is run directly under the Balkan City Government. I heard that the laboratory affiliated there is that Aris Richellen’s workshop. Evan-nim must have been excellent in both theory and practice.”

I never thought the name of Aris Richellen would come out of Lapis’ mouth. Lennok was a little surprised.

Although she was a genius known in the Balkans, I never thought that a lighthouse keeper in a Dominion so far away would mention that name.

The power of the talent of a wizard who reached level 6 at the age of twenties was as great as that.

It was literally needless to say how Lennok’s talent would be treated if it were revealed.

Lennok shook his head in an instant, took out a cigarette from his arms and put it in his mouth.

From here on out, I need to say a little more.

“well. It may not be all you have seen and heard.”

“… … .”

“If you had investigated my background, you would have already known.”

Lapis shut his mouth.

As Lennok said, in the end, there was not a single piece of information that could be obtained by digging behind him.

He is a genie who fell from the sky and was transferred to Aris’ laboratory.

The only recently updated information was that he was an elementalist, but this was already known from the time Lapis contacted him at the conference.

What the hell did Chun-gyeon see in him and leave the last message?

Lapis closed his eyes again, the light pouring out of them.

There was enough time to worry. Because she made a decision.

Now it was my turn to give him the opportunity to choose.

“I will not speak at length. Please be an observer.”

“… … .”

“Just a while ago. Even near Balkan, there was a huge incident that threatened ‘observation’. Warlock Craig Tillian borrowed the hands of a terrorist organization and church to descend the fragments of the ‘Destroyed’ Acrotrinier.”

“The case was settled by an independent wizard named Van, but things like this will continue to happen in the future.”

“Mmm.”

The corners of Lennok’s mouth twitched inadvertently when he heard the familiar name, but Lapis didn’t know.

“The sky is opening again.”

She said with a heavy expression on her face.

At the same time, the common ceiling darkened and the transparent night sky was reflected, and the stars began to shine.

Lennok then realized that the cavity functioned like a planetarium of sorts.

This empty space, which seemed unnecessarily huge, was a lighthouse facility for looking out at the sky thousands of miles away from a seat.

“The order established on this land will be disturbed, and chaos incomparable to the present one will come. And there are those who, like Pandaemonium, hope for it and welcome it.”

Lapis whispered under the starlit sky.

“The Blue Eye aims to maintain its mission of observation and stop those who want to create new gates right here in the sky. Please help us.”

“In this land… … We must stop Hell from descending.”
