Chapter 72: Unexpected Results
A dark purple magical power lingered over the scorched and ravaged earth.
It was an otherworldly magical power that they had summoned through the ritual.
Normally, the moment I would have intervened and disrupted the ritual, this magical power would have scattered in all directions, but it stubbornly clung to the land still.
It must have originated from a being of no ordinary stature.
Isnt it said that one should serve in the household of a great lord?
A being that exists at the very origin of the universe.Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
The most ancient and pure entity born from the chaos bubbling up from the deepest abyss.
Merely uttering his name would curse one with a formless evil.
The [Blind Idiot God]
An odd moniker for an entity of a final boss caliber.
But it cant be helped. After all, hes more of a concept or a law than a deity with will.
Thus, borrowing his power isnt as difficult as one might think.
But unless you are an alien race born with a special body or mind, it is impossible to control that power
Even I dont know how to disperse this profound and mighty magical power.
Of course, there existed a spell called [Power Expulsion] capable of driving out the influence of outer gods and such, but it was merely a basic spell with clear limitations.
I might learn something more advanced through the grimoire later on. but basic magic wont cut it.
But then again, what if I didnt disperse it? Could there be a way to absorb and control it, or perhaps store it somewhere?
Indeed, there was a way.
The lumps of flesh that still writhed beside me, these were magical creatures I had temporarily conjured with my own magic, with but a short lifespan. What would happen if I fed this magical power to them?
Due to the interruption of the ritual, the remaining magical powers density was quite low.
Compared to the main bodys magical power, it was merely a minuscule aftermath, but if I managed to harness it, I could use it in many ways.
The lumps of flesh Ive been nurturing might be ruined, but then again, they werent meant to last long anyway.
This wasnt my first time attempting such a feat.
I had some theoretical knowledge from trying similar things a few times in the game, though back then, there were specialized magical tools or specific traits suited for the task. It wasnt easy.
But on the flip side, it meant that this wasnt as difficult as turning Lee Chang-hyeok, who had become a lower-level mutant, back into a human.
Still, safety measures were necessary.
Fortunately, amidst all that chaos, the magic circles and traces of the ritual left by the parasites remained. I placed the magic stones produced by the parasites around the area to resurrect their ritual.
I then commanded the lumps of flesh to merge into one and activated several magic circles.
In an instant, the warehouse was filled with colorful magic circles.
The parasites magic circles and these would serve as a safety measure.
[Power Expulsion]
The spell wasnt cast to scatter the gathered magical power.
It was too dense and concentrated for me to manipulate or absorb it, so I needed to weaken its power.
Hisssssss.
My magical power was overlaid on the magical power of a great being.
The magic circles burst into light simultaneously.
[Evil Gaze]
I invoked the Evil Gaze to enforce my influence on the evil being.
Though the direction was slightly different and there were compatibility issues, I manually adjusted each one to convert it into the form I needed right now.
The magical power I sought to control was now pure power itself which has already lost its will or direction.
Hear my command.
From now on, I am your master.
Uuuuuuuuuu.
The purple magical power began to swirl tumultuously.
Good, its working.
Its a bit difficult to do it here. Lets return to the chairman for now. There might be safer alternatives once were in a more stable environment.
Um alright.
It wasnt a condition that was harmful to the body anyway. It was as if she was in a deep sleep, so letting her rest for another 30 minutes wouldnt be an issue. Jeong Hyun-ah was to be awakened in front of Cheong-ho.
Thus, we made our way back to Cheong-hos country house on the outskirts of Paju.
Yang Seo-ho and the police were still in a standoff with the members of the Triad. It seemed there had been a few physical collisions in our absence, as both sides appeared drained.
Yang Seo-ho, however, was still full of vigor. Amidst the chaos, when everyone else was on the brink of collapse, only she continued to shout resolutely.
Ah, Cheong-ho-sshi! Lets just give up now!!! Do you think Im doing this for fun?!!!
If Yang Seo-ho had truly decided to use force, the confrontation would have been over in less than five minutes and the other side wouldnt have been able to hold on until now. No, is that all she could do? She could have destroyed Cheong-hos entire house if shed been so inclined.
Regardless of whether they were gangsters or not, as long as the other party was South Korean citizens, they were ultimately under Yang Seo-hos protection.
Into this tumultuous scene stepped Chae Tae-won.
The young lady has returned! Please, stand down now!
Upon hearing Chae Tae-wons words, Yang Seo-ho cocked her head momentarily before pointing the loudspeaker at him and shouting.
What did you say?!!!
A ringing shockwave ensued. It even made the car windows vibrate.
Hit directly by the shockwave, Chae Tae-won grimaced and faltered slightly but maintained his dignified composure.
The situation has concluded. The young lady has returned, and we no longer require your services.
Yang Seo-ho turned her head indifferently toward the direction of the car, where Jung Hyun-ah and I were sitting.
Ah, I see. Who is that in the car? Can I take a closer look?
Thats not possible.
Really?
Yang Seo-ho frowned and scratched her chin. It was a scary sight. While I understood Chae Tae-wons stance, it wasnt the wisest decision.
This was merely creating a new stalemate. Aah, this cant go on Before she could begin to exert her real power, I activated the same magic that had deceived Yang Seo-ho once before.
[Tangled Identity]
[Hazy Presence]
[Kind Whisper]
An illusion that superimposed the face of another person over a mask was cast. Once the magical illusion settled, an unfamiliar face appeared in the cars rearview mirror.
An utterly nondescript face that no amount of searching could attribute any distinctive features to, and a face with a vague image that was specially tuned and made through magic. In that state, I got out of the car with the hood of my hoodie pulled over my head.
Whats that now?
Inspector-nim, perhaps its time for you to leave?
Why should I?
The fact that we saved the young lady means that we have subdued the kidnappers who kidnapped the young lady.
Where are they now?
Theyre in a warehouse near the old publishing district. If you step back, Ill give you the exact address.
Tell me now.
Will you step back then?
Yang Seo-ho furrowed her brow again and then shouted to the police officers behind her.
Fortunately!! It looks like our beloved daughter of the great Republic of Korea has returned safely!!! Lets all applaud this joyous occasion and withdraw!!!!
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.
Seeing the police start clapping with grim faces almost brought tears to my eyes. Its heartbreaking to see the guardians of the people, the sticks of the public, suffering under this crazy woman.
Only after confirming that the police were starting to withdraw did I give Yang Seo-ho the address.
Im really busy and have to leave today as well but I wont let it slide a third time. There will be consequences.
Yang Seo-ho left after spouting a strange mix of formal and informal speech and threats.
From the mention of a third time it seems the threat is directed at me rather than Cheong-ho.
Well, do as you please.
Its not like well see each other again.
. But it might be better to create a different face just in case we do meet again.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
