305. Experiment (2)
●
Professor Mobius’s habits when he is angry are quite well known.
He drinks strong spirits on the rocks, listens to classical music, and sits on a chair in his office without saying a word, sipping his drink while looking intently into space.
If you think about it, you could say that it is an extremely old-fashioned way of expressing anger, but most people who know his personality will freeze as soon as they see him like this.
After this state, someone would die, or would fall into a state where they would rather wish for it.
“…Isn’t this a fluke?”
And to him in that state, a voice that must have been spoken with great difficulty slowly fell.
Among the professors at the Magic Tower, there are some who are not only tolerant of Professor Mobius, but also favorable to him, and Professor Klein could be said to be the representative of them.
It’s not that he lacks intelligence, but even though he’s a professor at Magic Tower with a destructive social nature who never cares about what others think, you can guess the extent of his favor just by looking at him and trying to please others.
“Didn’t everyone know that the devil was something that could get out of control? “It is correct to say that we lost to Professor Boris, not his research.”
“You lost?”
“…”
Professor Klein closed his mouth loudly.
Did he also tell you not to do anything you are unfamiliar with?
The voice itself doesn’t seem particularly angular, as it always has, but it’s clear that the words Professor Klein has just spoken have at least scratched the surface of disgust.
“The proposition of science is to identify the principles of things outside of control and regain the right to freely process them. Isn’t that right?”
It’s still a friendly voice, though.
The coldness melted there was enough to make even Professor Klein, who was not the person standing at the end of that sentence, feel a chill.
“No matter who the opponent is, the fact that we ended up losing is a problem in itself.”
“…”
No.
That was your fault.
Well. I came here to ask for an increase in the budget for the next half-year, but suddenly I was filled with angry anger.
In the first place, I was the one who looked down on this guy named Dowd Campbell and did not do anything. Even though Professor Astrid was clearly plotting something, he even accepted the offer as if he wanted to give it a try.
Why are you taking out your anger when you let your guard down and got hit?
Professor Klein thought so and stroked his chin expressionlessly. Of course, I couldn’t just say what I was thinking out loud, so I took action.
No matter what, Professor Mobius is Professor Mobius. The actual owner of the magic tower at the moment.
The problem is not just having authority, but also having the ‘skills’ to match that authority.
In many ways, yes.
“Well, I don’t know. “Then how about this?”
Fortunately, Professor Klein did not have a card that could calm down such an angry opponent.
“I will handle it.”
Professor Mobius’s brows narrowed at the words Klein spoke.
“…What does it mean to process?”
“Oh, of course, I’m not someone you should take lightly. “No matter what, Professor Mobius, he is the one who hurt your work.”
And here, he doesn’t incur unnecessary anger by praising the other person, and has a level of speaking skills that makes it hard to believe that he is a professor from the Tower of Magic.
Honestly, compared to other professors, his performance is mediocre, but the source of Klein’s ability to speak alone with Mobius whenever he wants comes from here.
Small thinking, trickery, tricks, psychological warfare.
And the guy named Dowd Campbell, who analyzed it as someone who is good at such things.
‘… Doesn’t he seem like he has nothing without Magi?’
However, the output of the ‘Magi’ that they took was beyond the imagination of the professors at the Tower of Magic.
So.
In other words, all you have to do is block it.
Even if you wash your eyes, he is a guy who overcomes crisis situations with various flukes, clever tricks, a few strange abilities, and luck.
And the moment those types of people take away the ‘tool’, the range of actions they can take is greatly narrowed.
“I have a clever idea. Please trust me and leave it to me just once.”
“…”
Mobius was silent for a moment at what Klein said with a sinister smile before opening his mouth.
“…Whatever you decorate. “As long as it succeeds.”
Professor Klein smiled in satisfaction and nodded his head as Professor Mobius spoke calmly.
Because I could roughly guess what was going to happen next.
“I’ll support you with anything you want, Professor Klein.”
Easily dispose of such a brat and do as much research as you want.
It wasn’t that bad. I just happened to have something to ask for.
“If successful, could you please increase the budget and provide some ‘materials’?”
“What if it’s a material?”
Cline, who was silent for a moment, smiled and opened his mouth.
“I think about 100 people will be enough.”
“…”
Mobius, who was silent for a moment, burst out laughing.
“You seem like a disgusting human being.”
Of course, it was clear that the horse didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping him.
●
“-There is a high probability that they are conspiring with the same group, right?”
“…”
“The reason such a situation happened was because they looked at me too funny. If only the demons were sealed, it would be as if such a person did not exist. So, just block it and that’s it. “Isn’t that right?”
“…Well, I guess so.”
Alpha agreed with Dowd’s words in a shaky voice.
Professor Mobius, whose expression has hardened since the first ‘experiment’ and returned to his original state, is still silent. It looks like they are planning to prepare something that will cause ‘pain’ to this side next time.
And this man was sitting down, yawning and guessing what would come next.
“It’s always obvious to see guys who think they are better than others. “If you just take that away, you’ll think there’s nothing there.”
Of course, the professors at Magic Tower are some of the most intelligent people. He must be much smarter than Daoud himself who is saying such things.
However, what blocks such intelligence is always the human spirit itself.
So called, Oman. Contempt. Chosen people consciousness.
And the bad habits of people who have those things.
The joker is that they always think that it is a card that only they can have.
Although not only you but also the other party can have the target at any time.
“I said that Klein or something is a bit evil, unlike Professor Boris, right?”
“Quite a bit, yes. “Professor Astrid was always upset, too.”
“That’s why I brought this up now.”
“…Yes?”
“I’m trying to set the stage so that it doesn’t matter if I kill him.”
“…”
“It feels like a little appetizer before killing that guy named Mobius-“
“…Wait a minute, wait a minute.”
Alpha wiped the front part of his face, looking troubled.
“You really talk like you’re devouring an appetizer. “I can’t even imagine what process it would take to make something like that within the experimental structure make sense.”
“That guy named Klein, you said he was the guy in the Magic Tower most interested in ‘brains’, right?”
“…That’s right. So, he is also the professor who receives the most ‘human’-related material.”
“Yes. “You just have to return it as is.”
“…”
What are you talking about?
Alpha thought so and looked at Daoud, but instead of explaining in more detail, he just shrugged his shoulders and pushed them up.
“I just need help with a few things. “I’ll take care of everything after that.”
“…I will first listen and decide. “I will do whatever is possible within the scope of common sense.”
“You always talk like I’m making crazy demands.”
Daud Campbell, who answered so bluntly, opened his mouth as if he had suddenly remembered something.
“…By the way, what about Elnor? “Can’t you see the Prime Minister?”
From what I heard, he was called by Alpha because he had somewhere to go. In the first place, wasn’t this conversation taking place with the Alpha who came to tell that story?
“Well, I don’t know. “I don’t know about the prime minister, but I know about the princess.”
And, Alpha answered Dowd’s question by stroking his chin.
“I heard that you probably went to get the ‘reward’ promised to you by Professor Astrid.”
“…Yes?”
●
“Hmm.”
Elnor Erina Rizera Tristan stared at the brain in her culture tube with interest.
Her eyes were so bright that Astrid, who had called her here in the first place, was embarrassed.
-…What are you looking at so intently, thinking there is something to see?
“This is my first time seeing human organs so vividly alive. “It’s possible to maintain this level of vitality even when it’s sticking out of the body.”
-…
I feel it again.
Isn’t the mental state of this woman, who applied the most saliva to her own son, far from normal?
-…Yeah, that’s it.
Astrid opened her mouth, letting out a deep sigh.
-Do you know why I called you?
“Didn’t you call me here to teach you how to eat Daoud deliciously?”
-…Eat it?
“Or, yes. It doesn’t matter if I eat it.
-…
Honey.
Please choose some words and say them.
As Astrid was thinking of such thoughts, holding her head as she slowly became dizzy, Elnor’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Isn’t that right?”
-…
“Are you fooling me, are you?”
She never said in the first place that she would impart such unprecedented knowledge…
Astrid opened her mouth again, barely holding on to her consciousness as she slowly became dizzy.
-…No. I said I would tell you one thing about my son that ‘others might not know’.
“So that’s-“
-No, not that. It’s not that!
“…”
Astrid entered after hastily cutting off El Nor’s sentence. She let out an inward groan at the sight of El Nor glaring at her with her bulging gaze.
Is it okay to share my son’s ‘secret’ with a person like this?
-…Should we really say that it was a match made in heaven?
No, still.
There is nothing we can do about it.
-Anyway, Daoud still seems to trust you the most. So, I’m asking you to do that too.
“Please?”
-I have one thing to show you.
It is someone’s memory.
Perhaps it is what you want to forget the most.
The author has announced that the main story will end around the 400th issue. Then we know that they always add side stories in popular isekai, but in principle there are only less than 100 left.
Hmmm, so Astrid will show Elnore Dowd’s memories, but what memories are those? Is it the trauma they talked about? If so how does Astrid know that and Bogut also mentioned that he knew about his trauma, how do they know it when it is a truma related to his past life? Do they have some kind of connection with Dowd’s transmigration and possession or is there even such a thing as possession in the first place? Maybe he is Astrid’s one one only actual son. I thought Astrid’s actual son’s soul left and she put Dowd in the body but maybe not… We saw animal hybrids and I think those are hint to something, like Dowd being half Devil or something but eveything is so bleak, it needs an explanation
There were all kinds of father and son comparisons and in the end all of them concluded with saying yeah they are father and son, they are very similar, even including that Armin managed to seduce Elnore’s attendant or personal maid without doing anything. And it also appears that he is her son but she may have added “other things” to Dowd’s DNA or body. He may be both Armin and Astrid’s son and at the same time hybrid of some Devil related thing. Even before the Seal of the Fallen Heaven he had Status Window which Devil’s had and used and Astrid talked about how he was her biggest creation and ultimate being
I think you think about it too much. The trauma will refer to his life in that world, not in Korea. It has been told several times, Dowd as a child was very weak, even dying, and that his mother “did something” and then she went to the magic tower never to return until now. The trauma is that his mother abandoned him for some reason and on top of that it is forbidden to talk about it in the mansion.
The thing about Armin seducing a maid from Elnore seems to me like you just made it up. I don’t remember anything remotely close.
De hecho como tú dices la madre tiene las traumas pero del douwd original no del de corea.
Cómo dice la madre hizo algo pero no sabemos que hizo? Si la madre hubiera puesto el alma del prota en el cuerpo de dowd entonces ella hubiera puesto su propia alma en otro cuerpo en vez de hacerse trizas.
Y lo de Armin el papá del prota seduciendo a la sirvienta es real, pero eso fue por qué Armin paso casi 2 meses? O más creó con ella. Supongo que por eso se enamoró. Si tuviera el mismo poder que el prota hubiera enamorado a todas las sirvientas jajaja y también tendria a Astrid comiendo de su mano pero no es así.
Also yeah, I do forgot that MC got system first before he ever got any demon power
Dang, I need more
