Chapter 63 Doping
It was just a few minutes ago.
Me and Selena had been checking the suspicious man for a long time.
“Selena, can you feel it? Behind the right side of the direction we are walking, there is a guy scattering life.”
“Yes. He has a lot of energy, but strangely, he doesn’t seem to be able to handle it properly.”
As Selena said.
The guy that bothered me in the back of my head had a considerable amount of qi, as if he could unleash a solid aura, and was leaking, unable to hide his life.

No matter what you plan, it will be over before it’s implemented.‘Let’s see, Elodie’s side… … .’
I looked towards Elodie without moving my face or eyes. It was not easy for me to focus my attention on other places by looking only at the front, but since I felt supernatural power, I feel like my eyes are open to other perspectives.
It’s inconvenient to explain ‘I feel supernatural power’ every time, so let’s call it ‘sixth sense’ for convenience.
‘I don’t think Elodie’s noticed.’
Elodie has now given all kinds of blocking magic to herself, Aten, and Cybel for Eunpe.
Hiding yourself from the outside makes it difficult for you to feel outside interference. High-performance magic like Elodie would be even more so.
“If you notice that I live, you are indeed Frontier-sama.”
“It’s a formal compliment.”
“… … It wasn’t really like that.”
I naturally looked around the department store with Selena, keeping my distance from him. It didn’t seem like it was our purpose.
After arriving at the cafe, while we are having a normal conversation and looking at him,
Jacob abruptly stepped forward and began to introduce himself.
I asked Selena.
“I’m asking this just in case, is there a class called ‘finger’ in Mangot?”
Jacob just referred to himself as ‘the third finger’. The nuance itself sounds plausible, but what about in reality?
Selena answered without hesitation.
“no.”
That’s right. I’m hearing it for the first time too.
“Then that guy is, after all,”
“It’s fake.”
Selena was looking at Jacob with sullen eyes.
“If you’re pretending to be Mangot, you’re taking out the liver and playing jegi-chagi.”
“Are you just a terrorist? Is it terrorism? Isn’t the bomb side a bluff?”
Selena’s eyes narrowed at my question. When Selena was in Tayburn, her eyes and senses were good enough to sense the mana of the sacred forest from the barrier.
“… … The bomb seems to be real. It’s hidden, but the one you’re holding in your right hand is the detonation switch. Excessive force is applied to the thumb resting on the switch. Just to make sure you don’t accidentally press it. It is highly probable that a bomb was planted.”
“They say a bomb explodes when you die, how about that?”
“… … I do not know. However, to activate such a trigger, you have no choice but to use mana, even if you use a very small amount. I can’t feel it, but I may have made the trigger in a smaller amount than I can detect.”
… … A very small amount of mana.
To be honest, I didn’t see anything like that on Jacob’s body. To detonate when he dies means that such a trigger is implanted in his body, and I couldn’t even detect it with my sixth sense.
“You mean you have colleagues?”
“It’s a lie. It is very difficult for a simple terrorist who does not see such a colleague to be around, and who has not undergone special training in the first place, to conduct such an operation.”
“Why?”
“‘If I get hit, another colleague will help me’ presupposes that I get hit. The question is, who plays the role that is being played. It’s like putting a bell on a cat’s neck. Terrorists seek meaning in their actions, no matter how noble they may be. You can choose to ‘die with a bomb’, but you can’t choose ‘you got hit without doing anything’.”
“… … It’s really Selena.”
“It has become a formal compliment.”
If Selena’s words are true, it means that Jacob is lying except for bombs.
… … Hmm.
“Even if it’s true that ‘a bomb that explodes when you die’ is true.”
If you let it go, it will stop.

I manipulated the heukryeon stem to bring out the black spring.
The fine particles of Heukcheon, which spread slowly in trace amounts, were invisible to the naked eye.
The fragments of Helheim that I obtained in the northern part of Yeranhes, the mana of the continent has several different characteristics.
one of them. It sounds natural, but the sensitivity with Heukcheon is very good. Black Heaven’s manipulation is now almost like my limbs.
The black cloth, which spread out as small particles, slowly gathered behind Jacob’s back.
I’m not particularly imaginative, but there are only a few that come to mind as being good enough to stun people.
“Come on, move! If you don’t want to go through everything,”
“Wow.”
After cutting off the guy’s words, he immediately turned his attention to this direction.
wow!
I made a hammer and smacked Jacob in the back of the head. As long as you don’t die, I didn’t care whether you passed out or became an asshole.
“The bad guy has fallen. Wow. It’s clear you’ve been punished I am very lucky.”
Spit out anything in moderation, and collect the Black Sky again to complete it.
It is a perfect crime scene. Not a crime.
‘It’s nice to be able to remotely control it without the Menosorphos.’
What I have now done is not much different from the existing application of Menosorphos and the effect, but it is attractive that it does not go unnoticed. Menosorphs are magic circles, so if they have even a little bit of mana, they will notice everything.
“Let’s go, Selena. Someone will report it.”
“… … Yes.”
Selena seemed a little startled to see Jacob suddenly collapsed, but soon understood the situation and caught up with me.
“Frondier, are you a disgrace?”
“It’s so honorable, Selena.”
“… … He, the terrorist of the moment, there is something I am a little concerned about.”
“okay. Is it because of Aurora?”
Selena nodded at my words.
The guy called Jacob, who knew how to put an auror in his remarks, felt a considerable amount of energy at first.
But in reality, he is a half-pun who goes out in one shot with blunt bluffs, careless operation, and a surprise attack from behind.
Most people learn the auror through hard work, research, and training, and develop it in their own way.
But Jacob wasn’t quite the vessel for that.
I don’t have the skills to have an Auror, but I do.
“But let’s leave it to the police first. If we do it now, things will only get complicated.”
Selena nodded at my words. The bizarre appearance of a man named Jacob, if I’m not alone, I’ll soon reach Constell’s ears.
Selena glanced back at Jacob, who had only fallen once on the way.
“It’s not an exact expression, though.”
As if thinking about something, Selena muttered, lowering her eyes.
“It’s definitely like ‘doping’.”

Aten approached the fallen Jacob and checked his condition with the healer’s technique.
“You slapped me without acknowledgment.”
Aten’s diagnosis was quickly over. Concussed due to a strong impact on the back of the head, and then passed out. He didn’t die, but the aftereffects will remain.
“… … saw? How did you hit me?”
“wee. There was something behind this man.”
At first glance, it looked like a hammer. Cybel said in an unsure voice. It must have been a hammer that she saw, but it was so strange to see such a thing in the air, and it felt as if the stereotype that ‘being struck in the back of the head = stunned = hammer’ created an image.
“… … The mana flow is strange.”
While Aten checked her health, Elodie checked Jacob’s mana. I thought he was a pretty strong person from the moment he blew out his aura in his voice, but when he checked it out, he tilted his head.
“Mana is clashing with each other. To put it bluntly, I think the collision gives off more magical energy.”
“Clashing… … ? Can your mana collide with each other in your body?”
Cybel asked. Elodie shook her head.
“no. Perhaps mana was forcibly infused. When this happens, it usually ruptures or goes crazy, but it didn’t go that far.”
To Elodie’s eyes, Jacob was a bit excited, but he didn’t look dangerous. I don’t know who injected it, but he must be good at this kind of manipulation.
“I have red marks in my eyes. The other types of mana stand out in particular. And it leaves a small hole-like mark on my forearm.”
“… … It’s a small hole, maybe that’s it.”
Elodie opened her mouth with a feeling of bitterness, and Aten nodded her head.
“yes. It’s like a needle.”
“You turned mana into a liquid and infused it?”
If that’s true, then this isn’t the realm of magic. The realm of technology and medicine. A strange feeling of discomfort arose, and the impressions of Elodie and Aten became harsh.
“… … But tell me.”
Saibel, who was listening quietly, said.
“This person was carrying something that wasn’t his mana inside his body, didn’t he? That’s why I was able to emit such a strong aura.”
“Yes, it is.”
“Then, the auror that I gave out when I shouted earlier wasn’t intentional?”
“… … ah!”
At Cybel’s guess, Elodie made a sound.
Yes. Since it was not a vessel that could have enough Aurors, mana was injected. That is, there is a high probability that it is a person who has never used Aurors.
So, rather than using an auror to make a voice, whatever he said, the auror was included.
“But we didn’t know he had an auror in him until he said it, right? It was because he kept his mouth shut until he committed the crime, that is.”
Cybel’s reasoning moving forward slowly. Elodie and Aten read the conclusion and nodded their heads.
“… … I knew from the beginning what the effect would be if mana was infused into me.”
“It’s not the first time this man has been infused with mana, and it’s something this man named Jacob did on his own in the first place.”
This is not an individual or small area.
Equipment that converts mana into a liquid, medical knowledge that can infuse it into others without side effects, and the technology and ability to replicate it.
“stop.”
Elodie said as if to cut off the ominous flow of thoughts.
“This is not an area we are going to touch. The cops will come, and if it’s a serious problem, they’ll pass it on to Constell. Then we might have something to do, but not now.”
The two nodded at Elodie’s words.
However, Aten, the princess, seemed to have some thoughts.
“… … It’s been a while since I’ve had a chat with my mother.”
It’s a problem that can’t be dealt with, Elodie smiled bitterly.
Before they knew it, Frontier and Selena’s date had been forgotten in their minds.

A few days later, Constell.
Read at noblemtl.com
New news has arrived for freshmen who are just starting to adjust to the atmosphere of Constell.A test was to be conducted to determine the skills of the first graders.
The test will be conducted by their seniors, sophomores, and the eyes of the freshmen who heard the news lit up. There are a lot of famous people in Constell’s sophomores now.
The second year to be tested was carefully selected by each class, but the numbers were not matched for each class. For this reason, a large number of students from the first class were selected, and this made the hearts of the first-year students even more excited.
‘Aster Evans… … ! To that Aster!’
This year’s freshman, Diego Eiger, was one of them.
After seeing the announcement of the skill test on the bulletin board on campus, Dier clenched his fists.
He had heard of Aster’s fame even before entering Constell, and followed him with strong admiration. I followed him as a swordsman and watched almost all of Aster’s activities in Constell.
‘… … But can I meet you?’
The proficiency test is conducted for all first-year students, but the number of second-year students is limited.
Therefore, it is impossible for all first-year students to meet Aster. If you fail at the previous stage, you will not be able to meet him and the test results will come out. Of course in the bad way.
‘envy.’
Dier turned and saw another man looking at the bulletin board.
Pielot, the most promising freshman this year, is said to be a gemstone of talent comparable to Aster.
Dier bit his lip.
‘Chosen talent.’
His biggest task was not to be defeated by heart before even fighting.
