Chapter 383: Reincarnated as a Genius of the Most Talented Family
278. I did something bad
As I went inside, what I saw was the interior of a cave that really looked like it was inhabited by people.
Bookcases, tables, workbenches, shelves filled with all sorts of magical items… … .
In fact, it looked more like a workshop than a residence, but there was one strange thing.
There is no table or bed.
Richie, I guess so.
“This is a place that has been used by generations of Liches, including me, for many years.”
“Have you ever thought about leaving?”
“Well, when you face power, those thoughts disappear.”
What on earth is going on here?
Yes, it takes about 10 minutes to walk inside.
At the end of a deep cave.
“Wow… … .”
What we encountered was a huge glass chamber.
And hoses connected to the glass tubes were stuck all over the cave walls.
I think it’s role is to transmit power into the area.
The key was the bright blue sphere of power contained within that glass tube.
A heart that beats violently the moment we meet.
What is the reason for this?
One thing is certain, that power is enormous.
“This is it. This power. We are charged with protecting and preserving this power, and furthering this area.”
It’s definitely a great force.
A great power in a different sense from my ancient magic power.
A power that is worth protecting.
To be more precise, it is a power that is enough to be desired.
“Thanks to that power, I have gained powers that go beyond what ordinary wizards can dream of, even the most skilled liches. Of course, these powers can only be used within this realm.”
“What are you taking out?”
At those words, Dmitry seemed a little wary of me, but soon shook his head.
“There is no way, and it shouldn’t be done that way. The moment that power is revealed to the world, there will be great chaos.”
What on earth is that power?
“Is this what the dragon left behind?”
“Yes. I don’t know the exact details. It is only said that he asked us to protect this power that contained his essence.”
The essence of the dragon.
“Kkuruk- kkuruk!”
Karnas was excited, and Dmitry, who knew that Karnas was a dragon, was thrilled.
“By the way, I never thought I’d see a dragon in my lifetime… … Oh no, I’m already dead, huh?”
Are the undead alive or dead?
A topic I once encountered in a philosophy book suddenly comes to mind.
Of course, it’s not a problem we need to worry about now.
The important thing is that it was the dragon that gave these guys their ‘mission’.
And it is said that the dragon left, leaving behind a promise to return someday.
“His name is Arimag. He is the one who gave us the mission to protect this power, and he is the one who created this vibrant space.”
Arimag.
It’s a name I’ve heard before.
To be exact, I saw it in the book of ancient arcana.
“I don’t know where you are now or when you’ll return, but I’m sure you’ll return.”
But I couldn’t say it.
Because that dragon has already sailed beyond the horizon a long time ago.
“You’re definitely coming back?”
“Yes. He is currently traveling far away, but he said that he would definitely return one day and bestow the dragon’s blessings on all those who complete their mission. He said that he would grant knowledge, treasures, and lands that never existed in this world.”
I feel like I’m promising too much.
And it seems like they’ve been waiting too long.
Even though there was only a skeleton left, there was a strangely tired look in his eyes.
I looked into the glass case for a moment.
There is a crack.
And the power that flows through them.
“It looks like it’s falling apart.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
That power was seeping out through the cracks, and Selina must have sensed it.
After that, the stimulation from outside would have affected the inside.
“But the power has been fluctuating unstably for the past year. I tried my best to stop it, but… … I couldn’t find a solution.”
For now, what needs to be done has been decided.
Identify this force and stabilize it, either by putting it to sleep or by fixing that glass tube.
and…….
“Excuse me, if it’s okay, can I look around here? I won’t touch anything or anything, just sketch things!”
We also have to do the exploration that was our original purpose.
Dmitry nodded surprisingly readily to Ernest’s excited question.
“Of course. But you must not reveal the existence of this space to anyone.”
“thank you!”
He’s the kind of guy who’d go to the world where the demons lived if they let him explore.
“Come with me, Ernest!”
Jenna was about to follow, but Dmitry added as if he had just remembered.
“Beware of the creatures. The creatures here are probably bigger and stronger than those outside. They won’t attack unless you provoke them first.”
At those words, Leila sighed and got up.
“I’ll go with you. Althur, you’re not going, are you?”
“Yeah. I should be here. I’m curious.”
With only Althur and I, who were knowledgeable in magic, left, Dmitry continued his explanation.
“Anyway, this is the situation. As of now… … it’s become a situation that is somewhat difficult for me to handle.”
“Is there any way to fix it?”
“Because it has already been unstable several times, there is a risk that it will become even more unstable if touched incorrectly.”
Dimitri asked me with a rather worried voice.
“Can you really solve it?”
“Well, it depends on the method. It could be a solution or a disaster.”
“What does that mean?”
“Didn’t you say it was a mission?”
Dmitry flinched at those words.
“If you are trying to take that power or even destroy it… … .”
“Yeah. It could be a disaster for you.”
“… … That won’t do. Please, is there no other way to solve it?”
“We’ll have to see for ourselves. But if we have to, we’ll do it.”
At that moment, magical power began to boil within Dmitry’s body.
“Then, even now, you guys, right here… … bang.”
Of course, I was faster.
The guy’s magic is strong.
As the expression suggests, it is more than a normal wizard, and even more than a normal lich.
But unfortunately, it seems like this is the first time you’ve encountered the magic power I’m using.
“Ugh, ugh. Huh, how is my magic.”
The guy was completely overcome by magic and sat there unable to move.
The guy’s magic power is under my control.
If you continue to inject magic power like this, Dmitry’s magic power will probably disappear before long.
But I don’t know what will happen if I leave him alone, so I held him for a moment and spoke to Althur.
“If you sense something strange, immediately shoot a magic bullet.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. I don’t think he’ll die. He’s a lich. He already died once.”
In theory, Lich can live even if his body disappears, because his soul is stored somewhere else.
Of course, in a situation like now, if your body is caught like this, there’s nothing you can do.
It’s a shame, but we have to do what we have to do.
I walked towards the glass case.
The power flowing out is clearly felt.
“Kkuruk?”
“How is it, Karnas?”
“Kkuruk!”
Karnas looked very happy.
Perhaps it is because of the power of the same kind.
But besides that power… … .
I feel something else too.
What should I say?
“Altur. This way for a moment.”
“why?”
“Stand here for a moment.”
Just in case, I called Althur over and had him stand where I was standing.
The response came quickly.
“… … What the heck is this?”
“How does it feel?”
“This… … What should I say… … About that power… … I have a strange feeling.”
okay.
That’s exactly what I felt.
It makes me feel ‘affection’ for the power inside that glass case.
What on earth is this?
But then Althur took a step forward.
I grabbed that Althur and pulled him back.
“Hey, Dane?”
“what are you doing?”
“Without me knowing… … I felt intoxicated by power… ….”
I was confident in this reaction.
This power is not just powerful and great.
There is something.
for example…….
Something that attracts people.
“Explain in detail.”
“It was like he was talking to me. To protect this power and attack those who covet it. It was so sweet… … .”
Althur seemed greatly embarrassed.
“Dane, what about you?”
“I didn’t hear it.”
“… … Is it a different magical power from ours that protects you?”
“Maybe so.”
I turned my head and looked at Dmitry.
Even though he was caught and couldn’t move, his gaze towards me was shining brightly.
Yeah, you said it was a mission.
“Ugh, ugh. You guys… …don’t touch that power!”
Is that really a sincere mission that comes from the heart?
Or is it the kind of mission where you have to do whatever this power tells you to do?
[Dane Sogress.]
“What, you’re alive?”
The mini golem that spoke at that time.
It was quiet as soon as I came inside.
[I was watching the situation. As you know, it is difficult for me to speak in a situation where there are outsiders. And while analyzing, there are also other tasks that are difficult.]
Yeah, there was this guy.
“So, what do you think after analyzing it?”
[The analysis results are quite similar to the magical power data of the dragon I have. It is not a perfect match, just like everyone’s magical power is different, but at least one thing is certain.]
Mini Golem mentioned Karnas.
[This mini dragon’s magic and bond are similar.]
“Kkuruk?”
[Since the comparison group is certain, this is an almost correct guess.]
Then it became clear that it was the dragon’s magic.
But this is something I already guessed earlier.
[However, the unknown power is analyzed as an additional magical power that only dragons can possess. This is one of the facts that Dekanius discovered in a past dragon research project… … .]
“Just the main point.”
[It’s the power of speech.]
Words.
I furrowed my brows.
“This is the first time I’ve heard of it.”
[Well, it was Decanius who first discovered it, but he passed away without being able to publish his research results.]
“That’s not possible.”
[If I were to list the unpublished achievements of Decanius, it would be endless.]
You can just go to Drenick and find out later.
I think you said the lab site was in Drenique.
anyway.
“That word, what kind of magic is it?”
[This is a power of speech that comes from the power of the language spoken by the dragon. It is a high-level magical power where all processes work simultaneously with a single word, without the complicated process of generating and rearranging magical power.]
“For example?”
[The power applied to this is also a magic of speech. Simply put, you can control the nature and scope of this power by just speaking.]
That’s really convenient.
Is this something only dragons can use?
[Of course, this is not the power of all dragons. It is a rare trait that appears even among adult dragons.]
It would be nice if Karnas could use it too.
Will it all be applied as ‘Kkireuk’?
[In my opinion… … the dragon probably planted some kind of thought in that spirit.]
Thought.
I looked at Dmitry, who was still glaring at me.
The eyes are red.
As if a person’s blood vessels had burst.
Obsession with power?
Or maybe you’ve been living for so long looking only at that power that you’re worried that if it disappears, you too will lose your value?
[Perhaps, the dragon forced everyone who came into contact with that power to become obsessed with it and worship it.]
“her.”
I clicked my tongue.
If this is true… … .
That dragon named Arimagra, he did some pretty nasty things, didn’t he?
It’s a nasty practice that’s been in effect for thousands of years.
