Chapter 104 – Meeting (4)
He stole the magic of the standardized patterns that had been piled up until now and imitated the form.
Then, just looking at magic power, I thought that.
If it were me, I would be able to break through the barbed wire security of colorful magical powers surrounding the chair.
When the tuxedo appeared leaving a strong impression.
Even when the 504 of us finally knew what to aim for.
70% of my mind was focused on that chair.
To put it bluntly, there are thousands of flows and patterns created by hundreds of millions and billions of magical grains.
My head would explode if I had to accept this as a memory, but this was not a memory.
They piled up one by one in my magic, like a white drawing paper that can change anything.
And I realized one thing.
The fact that each color has a unique property, and it is impossible to implement all of them.
This was not a matter of talent, but a matter of compatibility with me and each color.
In particular, red and blue, which are the first and second on the left, were the opposite of each other.
The moment I realized the unique properties of the two colors, it seemed like hives would appear all over my body, and nausea would come out naturally.
Pink is… , Unlike the previous two, it fit the body well.
To compare it to, it feels like buying and wearing clothes that fit my body size.
When I decided to seize the sixth chair, which had a very comfortable feeling and was dark pink.
The jackpot hit in the last seven.
If the 6th is ready-to-wear with good sizing, this one feels like a custom-made suit that only I can wear.
Even embodying its unique properties was much easier than other chairs.
At this point, I think that you are this, and I wonder if this is the fate that God has foretold.
The wavelength matches so well, but there is no reason to choose another.
So I sat here.
The flow of black magic seemed to block me for a moment, but he eventually accepted me.
At the same time, a message appeared in front of my eyes.
[Absorbs ‘○○’s magic’.]
[Inherent ability ‘Magic Absorption’ evolves into ‘○○’ under the influence of ‘○○’s Magical Power’.]
[Failed to fully bloom due to insufficient conditions.]
[‘○○’ Will be sealed until the special conditions are met.]
“…….”
Magical absorption is an ability that was like honey that helped me grow quickly, but to seal it.
Of course, as much as the expression evolution is included, it is possible that it has changed to a better ability, but it hurts a little that it can no longer be used right now.
… Is there any star?
Growth will be delayed a bit, but I have no choice but to endure it thinking that I am investing for the distant future.
After thinking about it, I lifted my head and looked around.
The scenery unfolding in front of your eyes is very attractive.
503 people and I have a very different eye level, which was created due to the difference in height.
Five hundred and fifty three pairs of gazes looking up and a single pair of gazes looking down on them.
“Sorry….”
I felt deep regret.
I was so curious about what the expression and eyes would look like inside of me that was dyed white.
Confusion suddenly came to the calm atmosphere.
“What will happen if I do that?”
“… Shouldn’t we have to take away a chair before we even start?”
“What the hell is going on….”
Only seven chairs.
To put this cruelly, it means that 497 people have to die and only 7 people survive.
However, since one seat had already been taken away, it was only natural that confusion would come.
[Now, everyone, calm down.]
The tuxedo calmed those who slowly began to boil.
I wanted to see a little more, but it’s a pity.
[Didn’t I tell you? The game is about to begin.]
[I didn’t tell you because I didn’t think it was necessary to reveal it….]
The tuxedo guy pointed at me as I sat crookedly with the cane in his hand.
[The chair you are looking at is fake.]
I added to what he said.
“To be precise, it’s not fake.”
The tuxedo’s gaze pours down on me.
I know it even if I can’t see it
He is very curious about how I knew that.
[… You’re right. The word “Fake” Is a bit crude, and to be more precise, should I say “Replica”?]
If the fake was a flimsy one that only imitated the outward appearance, this was a replica that similarly materialized even the magic surrounding it.
“Oh, sorry.”
I spoke to myself in a tone full of deep regret.
“I was hoping to get a spot like this.”
It was a little while ago that I found out that this was a replica.
The moment I finally grasped the flow of magic power and broke through the membrane surrounding the chair, I felt it.
‘Oh, this is fake,’ he said.
I was happy because I wanted to eat it raw after a long time, but I was a bit disappointed.
Still, it wasn’t that nothing was gained.
Numerous magical patterns and flows obtained through replica chairs, and even ‘○○’, the evolution of magical power absorption.
Unlike the 503 people who just got to know their destination, I ripped off a lot of things, so it’s a pretty big income.
I was sitting on a chair, legs bobbing, when someone raised a voice at me.
“Your young friend can’t control his blood and runs amok.”
It seems that I didn’t look like me.
The one who spoke out was the man standing closest to the podium.
A young friend… , That sounds very nice.
I heard a compliment, so I have to reciprocate.
“It seems that all of you are old-timers. A twisted way of speaking is just a kkondae, kkondae.”
He hates the words seniors and kkondae the most.
“It seems like you’re at an age where you should be in the back room. Why did you come out so greedy?”
I can’t see his face, but I know very well that the old man is angry.
The magic that flows around the old man is changing rapidly.
The amount of magic power is staggering.
Even if it’s not enough, it’s A-class, considering that it’s not a power level, S-class looks generous.
This was good information, but at the same time, it was the old man’s big mistake.
Because there are very few S-class hunters out there in the world.
[Now, calm down. You can’t even fight here anyway?]
“Kuhm.”
Thanks to the tuxedo’s timely intervention, the old man’s magic slowly returns to its original flow.
Even so, he must have been dissatisfied with it, so he added a word to me.
“You should consider yourself lucky to have met me here, you thunder-naked bastard.”
There is such a person
The kind that hates to end up being attacked last.
Yeah that’s me
“I think inspiration is also lucky. If we had met outside, he would have been in a shroud and in a coffin by now.”
“This, this guy… !”
The last attack went in cleanly.
It sounded like he was about to throw a swear word at me, so I changed the subject using a tuxedo.
“So, is this the end of the face-to-face ceremony?”
Haha… , Thanks to number 504, it was a mess, but I think I said everything I wanted to say.]
Tuxedo looked around and waved his wand.
[Do you have any questions?]
None of the 503 people raised their hands except me.
Do you want to go home soon, or are you doing that because all your questions have been answered?
[Hmm, it doesn’t seem to exist.]
[Then… , The first face-to-face ceremony will end here.]
At his words, the surroundings are slightly agitated.
1 time… , This face-to-face meeting could happen a few more times in the future, what the heck.
Tuxedo noticed people’s curiosity and added an appropriate explanation.
[There will be several more face-to-face meetings until the owners of the chairs are all decided.]
[Then I hope to see you all at the next face-to-face meeting.]
I don’t know when the next face-to-face meeting will be held, but it won’t be possible to see everything here again.
The tuxedo bows politely to the participants and greets them.
At the same time, his presence slowly began to disappear.
From toe to head.
After the tuxedo completely disappeared, a message appeared in front of my eyes.
[The face-to-face ceremony has ended.]
[After 3 seconds, it returns to where it was.]
[3….]
It was then.
“You thunder-naked bastard! I will definitely find you guys. Until then, you should be taking good care of your neck!”
[2….]
While that old man was careless for a moment, he threw in a dill.
I can’t lose either.
“Your old man, take good care of your health so that you don’t die before meeting me.”
Then, at the right time, he raised a stop and showed it.
[1.]
Before the old man could say anything, each body was wrapped in a beam of light.
This Dilgyo ended with my landslide victory.
* * *
Immediately after the face-to-face meeting.
The being that had slumbered in the deep abyss awoke.
There is only one reason why he woke up, who seemed like he would never wake up.
It was because of the smell.
A very nostalgic smell that has not been conveyed for hundreds of years.
A huge body wriggled in the dark.
But that’s for a while.
Tight, tightly coiled chains held him in place so that he could not move.
The existence of the abyss pondered for a while, and then neatly gave up on itself.
The huge body of unfathomable size fell away, leaving only a tiny body.
Even though I threw away the power accumulated over a long period of time, the existence did not care.
As if it was a waste of time to feel regret, they just silently narrowed the distance.
Slow but honest steps.
The meeting time was approaching.
