Chapter 311: Jung Hayan’s Instruction Manual (5)

I could see her rushing here as soon as she turned. She had the same expression as usual. No, it was a little different.

She was restless. Her unidentified guilt was also visible. But that feeling was momentary. Jung Hayan, now, was definitely her usual self.

“Hayan, did you…”

As I started talking, she was preparing to answer with her lips shut. I could see her taking a deep breath as if she was also worried.

Jung Hayan had no talent with lies. She was hopelessly obvious when she lied to me.

If Jung Hayan tried to tell a lie, she would be as prepared as she was now. No wonder I looked around while trying to ask the question.

It was not appropriate to ask such a question in a place like this in the first place.

“Yes?”

“No, nothing. Let’s talk later.”

There were too many eyes here. If it was right that Jung Hayan did this, the fewer people who knew it, the better.

It was not that I didn’t trust the Red Mercenary and Yozora guild members, but I had to be careful as anything could happen afterwards.

It would be weird to drag Jung Hayan to another place. I also think perhaps this wasn’t done by Jung Hayan.

‘There is no sign that she consumed magic power.’

I even looked at her with my eyes opened widely. I didn’t know how strong the magic power of 99 was, but she should be exhausted if she had just used the same magic once.

‘There may be some other way.’

No matter how crazy she was, she wouldn’t have done it without thinking about the aftermath.

If the culprit was her, it was right to think she’d done this with something in mind. Probably, things like evidence were handled earlier.

The fact that not only the Republic’s accommodation but also other areas were blown out would be a result of the desire to avoid the situation where the State would be suspected.

Not experiencing magical exhaustion was also an extension of that work. I had to turn around and open my mouth, looking at Park Deokgu, who had a blank face.

“Deokgu.”

“Yes?”

“Take Hayan and go outside for a moment.”

“What do you mean… s-suddenly at this time?”

“Maybe there are civilians, and other people caught up in this incident. Don’t do anything else. Just focus on helping with the remedial work. Do you know what I’m talking about?”

“Ohhh…”

“I’m talking about helping the neutral country with magic. While you’re going, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give them what we have as relief supplies… Anyway, the main aid is magic. You need to help as well as you can. I’m leaving this to you.”

“Ohh! Oh! It was that! Phew… as expected from Hyung-nim.”

“What…”

“Even in this situation, you’re trying to take care of other people… You’re really different. This is a real righteous person! You always seem indifferent, but you’re thinking about other people more than anyone else! Lee Kiyoung, the righteous! Even the sound of it it’s different.”

“Stop saying useless things, and come back quickly.”

“Yes. It’s an urgent situation. Absolutely. Leave it to me! I will solve it perfectly.”

“Take some of the wizards of the Yozora Guild. Hayan, let’s talk when you come back after going around the city.”

“Yes… Oppa.”

She was looking more and more nervous. It even seemed that she wanted to pee really badly. As I kept looking into her eyes, I could see that she snuck away from my gaze. Seeing that she didn’t stutter, I felt like she was conscious differently than usual.

‘You’re the one who did it. Fuck…’

I couldn’t really be sure yet, but I was able to make a half-decision looking at Jung Hayan’s expression. I didn’t know how she did it, but…

‘She’s the one who did that.’

There was a high probability that she was the protagonist of this incident. Even if she wasn’t, I had to act thinking that she was. No wonder that I felt that I should make her go out a little faster. I had to show others that she had enough magic power in her body as she could be suspected of being the magical manifester.

The volunteer work was a bonus. If I was lucky, we could look good to Laios, so it was right to let Jung Hayan go right now.

Anyway, Park Deokgu, Jung Hayan, and some Yozora Guild wizards quickly started to leave this place at my urge. It wasn’t long after the incident, so it seemed to be the right timing as well.

“I’ll be back, so be careful, Hyung-nim. There is no guarantee that it will not fall again.”

“It’s unlikely that’ll happen. Just go quickly. I’ll be building all defense magic.”

“Okay.”

When Park Deokgu and Jung Hayan were no longer visible, I had no choice but to start moving, too.

If Jung Hayan had hidden her evidence, I had to check it with my own eyes. Even if she hadn’t, I had to figure out where this kind of magic came from.

Other wizards from the State and Yuno Kasugano were collecting samples and seeing the reaction. As I approached, I could see welcoming faces.

I couldn’t say that I had great knowledge of magic either, but at least alchemy was often helpful in this area. I even had the Mind’s Eye, so I would be a hundred times more helpful than the existing wizards.

[??? Scattered Magic Power Crystal (Legendary)]

[Semi-mythic-grade magic, it’s a crystal with the influence of???. It can be used as an advanced catalyst.]

As soon as I laid a mat and started gathering magic in my eyes, I saw many things.

[??? Survival magic power (Legendary)]

[Semi-mythic-grade magic it’s the residual magic power floating in the atmosphere under the influence of???. It will be scattered in 7 hours.]

‘Semi-mythic-grade…’

The level of the revealed magic was semi-mythic-grade. Strictly speaking, it was a kind of spell with an effect of magic power 99 or higher.

Indeed, many things were invisible to this eye. Naturally, it could not read it properly because it had been rated as a semi-mythic-grade. In fact, even when the magic fell, what I could see…

‘Was nothing.’

Though I got a lot of thought, it was faster to open the flask immediately and collect things that seemed worth researching, as well as magic crystals and debris, and things like residual magic that others couldn’t see, so it was faster for me to do the work myself.

It was a little disconcerting to see other wizards picking up useless stones with only magic, but it was not easy to distinguish even with my own eyes.

‘Good job.’

Probably, it was possible because the traces were also swallowed up entirely. It was hard to say that it was impeccable when I actually got up close and look at the swallowed section.

Most of the traces were fragments that had fallen, and there were no other traces other than that. It was not going to be easy to find the magic spot in this way.

Considering that the residual magic power floating in the atmosphere would disappear in the next seven hours, it would be even harder to find traces by then.

What was a little interesting was that the fragments affected by this magic could be used as catalysts, but the exact use was not known yet, but as it is a legendary catalyst, it seemed that various uses could be found. Of course, this magic itself is also very interesting.

‘It looks like the whole space was swallowed up…’

It definitely felt like that. If I were to look at Valentin’s arm uncut and distorted in a deformed direction, it was correct to think that the arm was removed before being swallowed into the space.

He resisted the force that pulled him, and although his arm broke, he was spared from losing it completely.

If it were sucked a little further into the sphere or couldn’t resist, I could bet that his shoulders, or the whole body, would have been neatly removed.

‘No… It’s not disappearing…’

I decided that this wasn’t swallowed by space when I found a very small substance. It was a small piece that was the size of a grain of dust.

‘Something is weird.’

It was only momentary, but it was natural to realize what that is.

‘This crazy…’

It didn’t disappear.

‘It’s compressed.’

This magical effect that neatly swallowed the section of this place compressed it into this little piece.

‘This crazy… crazy… Fuck…’

I thought that dying by whatever it was would be the same, but if I were to think that the victims of the Republic were compressed into this small piece, sweat began to drip down my forehead.

This was a kind of magic that compressed what was around into a grain of dust from the moment the sphere’s shape exploded. It sucked in and compressed it before the person even noticed it. In an instant, the bones and blood crumbled and reverted to a radish-like shape.

It was embarrassing, but this grain of dust felt heavy, almost as if I’m holding a stone. This thing I had now contained the ground that the magic dug out of this area.

I was wondering if it would be a useful energy resource in some sense if it had magical power or could compress something in this form, but…

‘It’s so scary…’

This was too scary.

At first, I hoped it wouldn’t be Jung Hayan, but the more I learn about this magic, the more I would rather hope… it was her.

‘What if an unknown enemy uses this magic?’

This felt like a level of a natural disaster similar to that of meteorites falling from the sky. If Jung Hayan caused this, I could fix it, but if an unknown enemy had manifested this magic, I would choose to quickly run away. As always, the smartest way to do this was to press the switch posture button.

‘Please, this should be Hayan’s work… Please…’

What was disturbing in the meantime was that I could see an unfamiliar black smoke coming out of this little substance.

It was so fine that it wasn’t noticeable, and of course, there were more remaining magical powers of other types, but it kept bothering me that out of all the remaining magic, there was something that was supposed to be black magic. I remembered someone then.

‘Where is Han Sora?’

I started to feel like the puzzles were being put together.

‘Where is she…? Fuck…’
