Episode 21. Supernova (3)
Charleureuk!
Immediately after activating the Emotion Implant. The stray forest’s magic was activated without warning.
Chains appearing out of nowhere come flying to wrap around my arms and legs. Up and down, before and after, left and right. It’s literally coming from all directions.
It is impossible to avoid them all. Some must be blocked.
[‘Mental Acceleration’ is activated.]
[‘Delusion Practice’ is activated.]
Up to that point, it was always a notification window that was displayed whenever I showed off my nature, so I tried to ignore it.
[Mental energy is not consumed due to external influences.]
‘uh?’
However, I was stunned for a while by the notification window that followed.
It was a pity that I activated Mental Acceleration first. Had it not been for the situation where the perceived time had slowed down, there would have been a catastrophe of being caught in a daze and unable to do anything.
‘Why can’t I consume my mental power?’
I thought about what an outside influence is.
Once I looked around. The only thing that stood out was the barrier that Pyoyu-rim had just opened. From there, an inference came out of nowhere.
‘If Pyoyurim is also affected by this barrier, can I use the magician’s power without consuming mana?’
Instead of being able to realize all miracles just by imagining her ability, the higher the level of the miracle, the greater the mana consumption.
However, from there, infinite mana was added to the ability amplification due to the Halo state.
‘indeed. In this kind of environment, if I exercise the power of a magician, Nayeon Eom of the world will have no choice but to die.’
Anyway, it seems that I can use the advantage of this barrier. In that respect, this situation could be said to be a good thing rather than a bad thing.
The question was why the characteristics of this barrier applied to me as well. Isn’t there usually a characteristic that the strength of adults with similar nature cancels out or resists each other.
‘ah?’
At that moment, a sudden memory passed through my mind.
“If certain conditions are added under the premise that you deal with a similar nature to the opponent, it will be possible to use the opponent’s ability in reverse.”
A few days after entering Signal, I remembered the knowledge that my class teacher, Tak Kwang-jun, had taught me during class.
‘If that’s the case… … .’
There is no reason to hesitate any longer. Looking at the wild forest, I unsparingly showed my nature.
[Activate ‘Overlord’.]
A talent obtained after the battle with Glen. A power that overloads the opponent’s mind is applied to her.
“Ouch!”
The effect was immediate.
Pyoyu-rim groaned and staggered. The barrier that was gradually widening also stopped. I didn’t see a big effect, but it was a big benefit just to know that it worked.
‘It seems that the inherent resistance applied to similar natures is still the same.’
However, I had no intention of continuing to use Overlord.
I’m not here to take down the stray forest. There was still a chance to rectify this scene of tragedy.
To do that, first.
You have to calm her down.
‘Originally, I was thinking of making and writing more plates, but… … . It’s a different story if I don’t have to worry about my mental strength!’
Now, I can confidently use the nature that should not be used carelessly.
[‘Eyes Fake’ is activated.]
Pyo Yu-rim, who had been frowning, raised his head. It seemed that he realized what I had done and was trying to strike back.
“… … ?”
Her gaze couldn’t find where to go.
『Eyes Fake』
It was a fourth-level natural power that arbitrarily manipulates the opponent’s perception.
Due to inherent resistance, it was not to the extent of freely displaying hallucinations. Instead, by manipulating her perception in this way, she could become a pseudo-invisible person by saying ‘I can’t be seen’.
and.
[‘Mind Siege’ is activated.]
The innate ability to manipulate the opponent’s body. When Mind Siege was applied, Pyoyurim’s movement stopped as if it were a statue.
‘Maybe if I do this, I won’t be able to use my nature anymore.’
In order to unleash your natural ability, you need to register a shortcut key.
Because of the basic program built into the vital chip, motion recognition, voice recognition, and volitional recognition. Two of these three are recommended to be set so that their natures are triggered in parallel.
Among these, motion and voice recognition. Those two just got restricted by my Mind Siege. The pyoyurim is no longer able to demonstrate its nature.
If I had only one will recognition, the situation would have been complicated.
“A wild forest.”
Fortunately, I was able to get to her nose safely.
Eyes fake is off. If she was able to activate her nature, the magic should come straight from here.
“… … !”
There was no reaction. Her empty eyes only trembled pitifully. It was proof that the Mind Siege had entered properly.
Kieeck!
“!”
The moment I was about to move on to the next step like that. Summoning objects came out of the wild forest’s wings. Regardless of the host’s will, it revealed its fangs of death to eliminate the threat to the host.
“Kuk!”
To avoid the rushing summons, I quickly leaped backwards.
As much as their birth, Mind Siege couldn’t help it. Since the wings sprouting from the back of the wildebeest are already ‘expressed’, they will continue to be maintained even if the host, the wildebeest is incapacitated.
What’s worse is that Mind Siege doesn’t work on summoned objects. Mind Siege can only work on beings with intelligence.
Shayak!
A ringing sound passed through my ears.
Was it a simple miracle that could have been avoided? Or was it because he had developed his reflexes through repeated training? Either way, the fact that I was safe was important.
I turned my head and looked at the floor. A little while ago, there were sharp scales that had slid through my cheeks like they were tearing them apart. If I had allowed a direct hit even a little bit, my head would have exploded.
Hiss! shhh! Shaaa!
It’s as if it was just a greeting. The attack of the summoned entities began in earnest.
It was enough to get caught off guard and put yourself in danger.
[‘Mental Acceleration’ is activated.]
gave strength to the eyes. In the first place, I did not expect that the situation would be easily resolved.
okay.
Aim at the Astrolabos.
Mental strength is not consumed inside this barrier. This means that you can now freely show eccentricities that you would never dare to dare to do normally.
For example something like this.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
High-powered bullets were continuously fired from the muzzle. I gave strength enough to cramp my index finger as I was constantly pulling the trigger.
Kwajik! Hard! Dismissed!
The bodies of the summoned bodies are torn like rags.
If you pour it like this, your mental strength should be worn out immediately. The power springing up into infinity aroused in me the greatest trepidation I could ever imagine.
It seems to be able to crush any enemy. The pleasure of being able to do anything heated up my thinking circuit.
“Huh!”
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
I suddenly inhaled a breath.
It was a pretty dizzying situation. Because it was a precursor to Halo. It wouldn’t be as funny if I fell for Halo instead of calming down the wild forest.
‘I can’t keep fighting like this. I have to approach the stray forest.’
I narrowed my eyes and watched the stray forest.
A phenomenon that occurs when an adult’s mana erodes the ego in a gap in which the mind is weakened. That’s what causes halo to happen.
‘Then it could be solved by revitalizing the weakened mind.’
How to cheer up someone who is already speechless. Probably most of the others are impossible.
I am different.
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
Definitely the ace of my nature.
He was the first to demonstrate the power of an influencer when he got his hands on it. This ability, which is always the first to rely on in a crisis situation, was demonstrated to Pyo Yu-rim this time.
[The opponent shows symptoms of mental instability.]
[I feel strong resistance from the opponent.]
[The effect of nature is greatly weakened.]
A unique resistance that applies to similar natures. Added to the fact that the wild forest was insane, the effect did not work properly.
‘If I can’t do it once, I’ll keep blowing it in!’
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
… … .
A nosebleed flowed.
If you continue to exercise your nature, your body will not be able to withstand it. It was a story that applies not only to Pyoyurim, but also to me.
Crowaaa!
The summoned bodies were not alone. As the host became unstable, it raged more violently and poured out all kinds of ranged attacks on me.
I minimized my movements and avoided their attacks. He responded with mana bullets to those who launched attacks that could not be avoided.
bang! Tattang! Tadadang!
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Ranged attacks are countered with ranged attacks.
In the time slowed down by mental acceleration, I shot down their missiles one by one with mana bullets. In the meantime, I didn’t forget to constantly apply the emote implant to Yurim Pyo.
‘Poem, sight… .’
Is it because it’s too much?
In an instant, my eyes opened.
Things seemed to be two, but then merged into one repeatedly. It didn’t seem like this was a problem that could be solved by calming myself down with the Emotion Implant.
bang! Quaang!
The narrowly avoided attacks pulverize the earth. In the aftermath of the impact, the ground shook and the body shook weakly.
The moment I wondered if I might be pushed back by the bombardment of those summoning bodies if I continued like this.
“ah… .”
It was the wild forest that was pushed to the limit first. The earthquake that had just occurred shook her body and she fell. The summoning objects, which had been driving momentum, also showed a moment of hesitation as the host became unstable.
It was a golden opportunity.
I sprinted out again at full speed toward the driftwood.
“A wild forest!”
In front of her, desperately running to arrive. A lot of words popped into my head. I picked and picked out my words carefully and quickly.
or calm down. or calm down There were very good lines, but the lines I chose were like this.
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[‘Demagog’ is activated.]
“are you okay.”
whispered in a calm voice.
Emotions were constantly evoked. Demagogue was activated to make her feel emotional. To stimulate her spirit, I boldly placed my hand on her slender shoulders.
The Halo phenomenon could have grown bigger, but it was a risk I had to take if I wanted my voice to reach me.
“ah.”
An exclamation mixed with bewilderment flowed from the pyoyurim’s mouth. The blurry eyes began to come alive.
I didn’t stop
“You don’t have to do this.”
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[‘Demagog’ is activated.]
continue to blow So that the precarious girl can stand on her feet again. I fill her heart with every positive emotion I can think of.
“ah… . Ahhh… … .”
It still seemed insufficient. It seemed that the doctor was not communicating properly.
‘Then I have no choice but to convey it directly in my head.’
[‘Telepathy’ is activated.]
– Pyoyurim. It’s me, it’s Kim Do-yoon. I’m standing in front of you now
call her Reminds me of who I am. It makes her aware that the only man she can remember is standing in front of her.
‘I need to calm down now… … .’
Even if the mental power is infinite, it is a different matter that the body that will exert that power can handle the recoil. It’s the same reason I was worried about the runaway forest.
dump.
Finally, the strength in the legs is released. The amount of blood pouring from his nose gradually increased. I felt like I would lose my mind if I lost my concentration even a little bit.
“Do-yoon Kim?”
At that moment, Pyo Yu-rim suddenly called me. It wasn’t the emotionless voice from before. She finally came to her senses.
“okay. It was close. If I had been a little later, I would have stretched out first.”
“uh? Why, why are you like that? Your nosebleeds a lot, huh? What is this situation… … .”
“Wait a minute before that. First, there is something I want to ask of you. Can I hear you?”
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[‘Demagog’ is activated.]
Almost there.
I continue to exercise my nature with my teeth clenched. I could see Pyo Yu-rim’s expression becoming hazy.
“What… ?”
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[‘Demagog’ is activated.]
The ability that everyone slandered as hypnotism is used in a way that befits the notoriety of the rumor.
“Don’t ask why. Don’t even try to know the cause. Believe me. I’ll let you know after everything is settled. So for now, just do what I tell you to do. Don’t panic. got it?”
I reached out and gently caressed the ponytail’s cheek.
[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]
[‘Demagog’ is activated.]
love. It injects the most stimulating and ecstatic emotions that humans can feel. For some it is the reason for life, for others it is everything. It breathes life into her dry heart.
“yes. all right… … .”
Using the psychology that she can give up her liver and gallbladder for the person she likes, she captures and leads her ego that was about to sink.
“For now, can you bring all the dead children back to life?”
She accepted my hand with open eyes. As long as the barrier is maintained, at least the dead can be brought back to life.
“Of course… .”
A magic circle appears on the floor where people fall. The light of life emanating from the magic circle restores them to their near-death state.
The summoned objects that had been inflaming the entire area of Signal turned into particles of light.
The particles flying into the sky repaired the collapsed buildings as if rewinding them, and the dented ground and cracked roads were restored to their original state.
miracle.
There was no other way to describe the situation other than that word.
Swoop.
While I was standing with my mouth open for a while at the truly dreamy scene, Pyoyu-rim’s body suddenly leaned in front of me. will lose consciousness
The ring floating above her head, the wings that had sprouted from her back, and the ominous aurora of light that flowed from her eyes disappeared.
The woman who should have met a tragic fate originally fell asleep in my arms, with such a perfectly happy face on her face.
“Ugh. It’s the head… .”
“What is this?”
At just the right timing, Eom Na-yeon and Seol Chae-hwa began to come to their senses. They looked around for a while, then looked at me holding a fainting wildebeest.
“Did you stop it?”
“okay. How.”
“Then, the stray forest is now… … .”
Seol Chae-hwa’s expression was colored with confusion. It was worth it. Adults who have runaway to the end of Halo have unconditionally become brain dead or debilitated.
‘If it was the original, it would have been like that.’
The stray forest now asleep will soon come to its senses. Somehow I had that certainty.
I carefully laid the unconscious stray rim on the floor.
and.
“uncle?!”
I also sat down next to him. I forgot about it for a while, but I was also the same as my mind reached its limit.
“are you okay. Because it’s just a little too much… . I’ll ask you to do the next job.”
I quietly closed my eyes, reassuring Na-Yeon Eom who was approaching in surprise.
Please wake up safely. I hope this intuition that she will open her eyes is not to blame.
“Cool!”
“Mom! How good it is, no matter how you look at it, it’s not just too much!”
After pouring out a handful of blood, I passed out immediately.
