Handover (28)

“...I think the explanation is insufficient.”

A snake hundreds of meters in size floating above a huge jungle.

An eerie figure that curls itself into a huge circle and fills the space inside with darkness.

The snake’s conscious body slowly wriggles and degenerates as if it had become a door connecting the open sea.

A wave of darkness threatening to collapse and devour this entire space of consciousness at any moment.

Even after listening to Cheon-gyeon’s explanation, Lenno looked at him quietly and then opened his mouth.

“I understood that if an ascendant dies with his mind broken, the door connecting reality and the ocean opens. In that case, the [doors] of this world must be spaces created with the death of the ancient ascendant.”

“yes.”

“But isn’t that something close to a fragment of memories that the handbook left behind in the past, like you?”

Lennok said, glancing back at the handbook.

“Can something like that happen even though it is not a body that exists in reality?”

The conscious space of the manual that exists beneath the unconsciousness of the guardian spirit beast of the tower.

However, that handbook is not the person himself, but a consciousness created through the memories left behind by the handbook.

It was clearly the handbook himself at one time, but he was separated from the timeline of reality by cutting and pasting the memories and time of the handbook.

Even if such a being went crazy and became corrupted, how could this fact affect reality?

As soon as Lennok heard Cheon-gyeon’s explanation, he understood the subtle difference in nuance and fell into doubt.

But Cheongyeon laughed as he listened to Lennok’s words.

“I would have told you. “I’m not going to stop you, I’m going to show you.”

“Then...”

“What is happening here now is the last of Padme’s remaining consciousness. “It’s an ending that hasn’t come to me yet.”

Cheongyeon shrugged his shoulders.

“The only thing that is damaged is this ritual space. It is only the conscious body of Padme, the owner of this space. “The only question I have is... she chose this ending herself.”

“You chose it yourself?”

“okay. I was clearly controlling myself until a while ago, but right before you arrived, I cut off all lingering attachments and became corrupted. “I don’t know why I chose the worst possible death.”

“....”

No, Lennok seemed to know what the reason was.

The curse of metamorphosis that existed between the handbook and the guardian spirit beast.

Only after confirming that the curse of being eaten by spirit beasts of the same lineage had disappeared, did the handbook’s conscious body choose its own death.

If the curse of transformation had not been resolved, the guardian spirit beast connected to this ritual space would also have been swept away by the open sea.

The conscious body of the handbook recognized this and postponed its own death, accepting the ending only after realizing that Lennok had succeeded.

Even though he knew that it was the worst possible death for him, it was only after he was sure that the aftereffects would not leak to anyone else.

While Lennok was silent after realizing this, the large body of the handbook floating in the air began to rotate slowly.

Coo coo coo!!!

The huge snake’s entire body turns black, and even its scales turn black and fall off one by one.

The darkness of the open sea seeping out from inside the circular passage ate away at the snake’s entire body, deforming its form.

Even Lennok, who is watching, sees the corruption and death of the transcendental for the first time in his life.

Even the snake’s head and scaly tail were lost, and the consciousness body of the handbook soon turned into a completely black ring.

Inside the circular door, stained with sticky darkness, a pitch-black substance gushed out like a fountain.

Kuoooooo!!!

“....”

At that moment, Lennok understood why the [gate] connected to the open sea was called a well.

An eerie circular passage that seems to pump infinite darkness from beyond invisible space.

Anyone who saw its birth with their own eyes would not have thought of any other word other than well.

But Lennok’s thoughts were cut off the moment the darkness overflowing from the other side of the well began to surge towards him like a wave.

“No, wait.”

Keyee!!

The moment I raised my intention to block it, Cheongyeon raised one hand and started making a hand sign.

At the same time, a huge pillar of light rose from the center of the sky, creating a dazzling curtain.

Kugwagwagwagwa!!!

A lighthouse of pure white light, tens of meters high, bursts with dazzling light and illuminates the darkness coming from all directions.

The light that flowed from between them illuminated and blocked the pouring darkness, as if driving it away.

“...!!!”

“Keep watching, wizard.”

The darkness of the well, which was created based on the outline of the handbook, was vast, deep, and muddy like the sea.

However, Cheongyeon did not blink an eye even though he was alone in receiving the enormous darkness pouring down from hundreds of meters in diameter.

“How the handbook’s consciousness dies. Check out how the ascendant’s consciousness is damaged.”

“...that.”

“The beast that was born as a spirit beast and became an ascendant pours out everything and dies.”

Cheongyeon said quietly.

“For those who want to take on the challenge, this moment will be the perfect opportunity to achieve something.”

“....”

Are you advising me to get inspiration for ascension by watching the consciousness of the handbook die?

The method explained by Cheon Gyeon does not end with simply injecting magic into one’s mind.

Deconstructing and reconstructing instinct and intellect is actually an act of touching the user’s ego itself.

To put it bluntly, it’s the same as replacing your brain with a computational processing device that operates solely through magic.

Even though it may function the same as before, no one can be sure that the person who reorganizes the mind will be the same as before.

“Because Padmé is not human, her sense of self is different from ours. “No one knows how she would have accepted that fact.”

Cheongyeon gestured with an indifferent expression.

“What matters is that Padmé succeeded. “She completely dismantled and reestablished her instincts and reason on her own, and immediately after that she rose to level 9 and became an ascendant.”

“....”

“Do you understand why I am explaining this to you?”

“Are you saying that if you want to challenge for ascension, you have to take a gamble that even throws away your ego?”

“no.”

Cheongyeon shook his head resolutely.

“I was saying that Padmé’s method has something in common with all of us.”

“....”

“The spell Padmé Chiesa used to reconstruct her self. “It has already gone far beyond the concept of hierarchy that we recognize.”

Cheongyeon spoke softly to Lennok, who was silent.

“The power to destroy the caster and reconstitute himself without being dependent on the caster. It was already something beyond Padmé Chiesa. Do you understand what this means?”

“That’s...”

At that moment, Lennok, who realized what Cheongyeon was trying to say, became silent.

Because through the death of the conscious body, I realized the reason why the manual was trying to explain through the way of existence.

Qualifying and becoming an ascendant is not a miracle performed only at the end of a grand ritual, a great deity, or an infinite ascendant.

The crucial reason why Hyeon-pyo, who was born as a spirit beast, learned magic, and gained intelligence, was able to become an ascendant.

“A spell in which the handbook reconstructs one’s own consciousness. “It was something of a transcendent concept that went beyond level 9.”

Lennok answered quietly.

“Does one become eligible to become an ascendant the moment one recognizes standards beyond what is allowed for an ascendant?”

A spell that goes beyond the concept of hierarchy that Cheongyeon mentioned earlier.

A decisive moment that reorganized the existence of the handbook from the beginning and made her an ascendant.

Something that symbolizes a transcendent concept.

“There is no exact name. “It’s up to everyone how they call it.”

Cheongyeon looked away with an expressionless face.

“The reason Padmé was able to do it is because it was her lifelong wish as a spirit beast. “It was a feat that was possible because there was a time when I suffered from conflict between instinct and reason.”

Cheongyeon said as he looked at the landscape of the well, which was turning black as the distance went by.

“One answer that penetrates all of life. Padmé used talents and miracles beyond those given to her to make it happen and-”

Kuguaguaguawa!!!

Except for the curtain of the lighthouse guarded by Cheongyeon, all other worlds of consciousness were already being immersed in endless darkness.

“Because of that, I ended up losing my memory and falling into oblivion.”

“If it is the reason for falling into oblivion...”

“Okay. From there-”

Cheongyeon, who said that, slowly turned his gaze back.

“It would be better to hear it from the real person.”

“...what?”

At that moment, the world of consciousness submerged in darkness behind Cheongyeon’s back split in half and twisted.

Ugh!!

As if dividing the real world, the sky and the ground were distorted, and a crack different from the well was struck from the outside.

At the same time, the darkness of the open sea that filled the entire consciousness space began to be sucked through the crack in an instant.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

As the wind blew fiercely, Lennok opened his eyes and gazed across the newly formed crack.

Something of immeasurable power is looking down at this place from the other side of the crack, sucking up the darkness of the open sea.

The moment Lennok realized it and immediately solidified his consciousness.

Woe!!

All the darkness flowing from the well was sucked in and extinguished, and a quiet silence came.

Cheongyeon, who had been observing the situation, took down the lighthouse he had built and turned around.

On the other side of the infinite horizon of consciousness, an expressionless white-haired girl stood.

A sharp appearance with an unknown and complex incantation carved into its brown skin.

It’s my first time seeing her, but the moment I meet her, I feel like I know who she is.

At that moment, Lennok inadvertently took a breath and his expression hardened at that fact.

“It’s been a while, Padme.”

Cheongyeon looked back at the girl and opened his mouth with a smile.

“How long has it been since we last met like this?”

“Well, Madrea.”

A cold cynicism appeared on the girl’s lips.

“I didn’t really want to meet you.”

Level 9 Ascendant’s Manual Padmé Chiesa.

The Ascendant himself, who is sleeping guarding the well in reality, has descended into this ritual space himself.
