I Became a Genius Mage in the Cthulhu Game Chapter 255

Chapter 255

Episode 255: Reminiscence (2)

I was furious.

The power that the being of the abyss truly began to exert was truly at a cosmic level, and if I had been in a calmer or more rational situation, I might have become frustrated and given up on everything.

However, I was in a state no different from a madman at the time, and in a manner that only a madman can act without, I was furious with all my might at that absurdly enormous being.

He tried to block his ‘attack’ by using all the magical power he had, all the capabilities he had as a wizard, and all the resources he could mobilize.

If you think about it now, it’s funny.

I was probably the only one in that place who thought I was blocking his ‘attack’.

That wasn’t an ‘attack’.

[Mountain Predator] only got a little closer. It hasn’t launched any attacks yet.

Is it an attack when the Earth exerts its gravitational pull on me?

If I jump from a tall building and fall to the ground and die, can I say that I died as a result of an attack by the Earth?

It was just so big and heavy that it created gravity, and it just approached my direction.

What I did was no different from the threat of a mantis inflating its body towards an oncoming car.

Before attack or defense, the difference is so absurd that the fight itself is not possible.

Nevertheless, I was angry, inflating my body endlessly, and my struggles probably made the [Mountain Predator] happy.

Maybe.

The real attack of the [Mountain Predator] began next.

Maybe it wasn’t an attack either, but I don’t want to think about it that way.

To this day, that horrible scene has not completely disappeared from my mind.

Even now, four days later, I still tremble a little when I think of that terrible gaze. Even though it is protected by [Madness of the Abyss]. It’s not a question of insanity. It is a more fundamental, fundamental, pure fear.

That giant ring of eyeballs floating in the sky.

There were so many, horribly huge eyeballs covering the sky, all of them looking at me at the same time.

At that moment my mind broke once again, and for a moment I thought I was dead.

I came to my senses again with the message that [Madness of the Abyss] had been activated.

Perhaps he actually died once and was resurrected by the action of an incomprehensible force. I don’t have any characteristics related to resurrection, so I guess I wasn’t really dead.

Anyway, that’s what I thought at the time.

If my future self, who is reading this, doesn’t remember that scene, I can just understand that what happened to me at the time was just that terrible.

What was important was the aftermath created by his ‘gaze’.

This is the aftermath of an attack attempted by an entity from the abyss that revealed its true form. I’m writing this again, but the [Mountain Predator] is a mid- to low-ranking entity among the beings of the abyss.

Please pay attention to the information described below as it may be important information.

His gaze? Or his power?

Or, his hand gestures, embodied in an abstract form, rushed towards me in an invisible, conceptual way, and flew at me with no room to avoid or respond.

It seems like he probably wasn’t hit directly.

Since he regained his sanity through [Insanity of the Abyss], he was probably just surprised by the attack and his sanity temporarily collapsed.

However, its attack destroyed the area behind me – that is, the entire city of Yangju.

Yangju City did not burn or explode.

disappeared.

The map, NPCs, and all other information that formed the two columns were instantly lost, and the area behind me became an untouchable gray void, as if it were an unrealized area where polygons and object information were not prepared.

Its attack came in a way that could not be responded to or defended in advance, and the aftermath was enough to easily wipe out a city.

It doesn’t seem like any particularly powerful techniques were used. Maybe it’s flat. So it must have been a normal attack.

Is there any way to fight these guys?

Maybe I can find the answer in a situation that happened to me later.

It was clearly a desperate situation, but the thoughts I had at the time were a bit absurd.

‘Ah, it looks like this was a game.’

Anyway, it was a scene that could only be seen in games with serious bugs, and that familiarity actually gave me a light sense of peace.

Because of that paradoxical sense of peace, I ended up losing my concentration, and eventually my body began to fly into the sky, just as he wanted.

With the start of flight, the [Madness of the Abyss] that was restoring my spirit lost its power.

As expected, confusion occurred.

The immense pleasure that came with complete collapse.

‘I can’t resist now.’

Was it?

‘Now you don’t have to resist.’

no.

‘Now I don’t have to struggle to stay sane.’

I don’t know exactly what I was thinking. It was probably one of these three or all three.

[The Mountain Predator] reached out to me something that gave me a very kind and kind feeling, and at the time, I thought he was reaching out to me.

[Mountain Predator] puts a mark on the person it likes and makes it its pet.

Play with it as you please, drink a little blood, emotion, and soul whenever you want. Then, when you get tired of it, you throw it away somewhere in the abyss like you would trash.

That’s the kind of hand he extended. He shamelessly extended a hand of forgiveness and tolerance to me, and I, drunk with collapse, madness, and pleasure, almost accepted that hand without any resistance.

At that time, if Jang Hyeon-deok had not been seen, he would have actually done so.

no.

No, no, wait.

There was no absurd development in which Jang Hyeon-deok used some kind of relationship or the power of friendship to inspire me with courage.

I just felt puzzled when I saw Jang Hyeon-deok.

‘Why is that kid okay?’

Jang Hyeon-deok is like, Wow! Although it was screaming and glowing while clinging to the [Mobile Barrier Generator], it was clearly in good condition.

Like Yangju City, he did not experience an unfortunate accident where the data itself disappeared, nor did his head explode like Hyeolhu or other cult members.

Jang Hyeon-deok was just in a state of confusion.

Why was Jang Hyeon-deok fine?

The exact reason is still not fully understood.

However, at the time, I attributed the cause not to Jang Hyeon-deok, but to an object next to Jang Hyeon-deok.

I was convinced that it was because of the [mobile barrier generator].

I built up the magic power of [The One Who Quietly Waits], the magic power of [Sangdubul], built up the magic power of [The Fear Drinker] on top of that, and combined it with the magic power of [The Predator in the Mountains] secured at Samneung, Paju.

If you add in the magic power of the [Blood Demon King], isn’t that definitely a pile of the magic power of the [Mountain Devourer] and all of his incarnations?

The magic power of the [Blood Demon King]?

It’s lying around haphazardly in Cheontae-dong.

At that time, there was only one thing that came to mind when I saw the unexpected effect created by the [Mobile Barrier Generator].

‘I found a weapon that I can swing at that bastard.’

Even though I had no basis, clear calculations, or convictions, I was fascinated by the idea, and along with it, I regained the anger that had temporarily collapsed.

Let’s hit him, let’s hit him with that artifact containing his magic power. It doesn’t matter whether it works or not. Just hit it. I think only then will I feel better. I want to hit you. I want to hit him. Even if I die, I don’t think I’ll have any regrets if I attack that guy with that thing and die.

With that in mind, I pulled out all my magical power to resist, and was soon able to escape from his grasp.

I was just happy at the time, but maybe someone was helping me.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have gotten out of that situation so easily.

At that moment, ‘coincidentally’, the rocks lying in Cheontae-dong were flying nearby, drawn by the gravity created by the guy, and it is necessary to think in the same context that ‘coincidentally’ those rocks were rocks containing the magic power of the [Blood Demon King]. There will be.

I eventually reached the location where Jang Hyeon-deok and the [Mobile Barrier Generator] were located.

Jang Hyeon-deok was still in a state of confusion beyond which he could not do anything, but as soon as I reached that place, I felt that I could move freely.

It appears to have been true that the [Mobile Barrier Generator] provided resistance to the influence of the [Mountain Predator].

If I had been more calm and rational, I would have found a different way to use the [Mobile Barrier Generator].

But at the time, I wasn’t in a situation where I could come up with such thoughts or methods.

Did the message window cover my eyes right after that? Wasn’t it a message window? I don’t remember very well.

If a message window had really appeared, its content would probably have been something like the following.

[What are you planning to do?]

Perhaps Jang Hyeon-deok, who was in a state of confusion, was asking me what I was planning to do.

Considering what I said right after, I think someone had asked me a question.

I gave this answer to an unknown person.

‘That’s right, it’s a big explosion.’

Without knowing what I was doing or how I was doing it, I combined the rocks containing the [Blood Demon King]’s magic power into the [Mobile Barrier Generator] and temporarily moved the magic power beyond what I could control.

Now that I think about it, it’s strange that the [Mountain Predator] didn’t show any reaction to my actions.

Was it just like, “What can a guy like you do?”

Maybe he did something to stop me, but maybe something more transcendent than the [Mountain Predator] was protecting me.

This entire situation occurred amidst confusion, uncontrollable anger, and absurd inspiration stemming from madness, as if heaven and earth were turning upside down, and everything was unclear.

But definitely the next moment.

So, the moment when I convert everything contained in the [Mobile Barrier Generator] into explosive force and momentum and fire it.

Since the areas around Gwangtan-dong and Bongilcheon, which were supposed to be behind me, had ‘already’ been destroyed, there may have been some kind of attack.

But at the time, I was ignoring the situation and focusing only on attacking that guy.

It was an epic flight that took advantage of my anger and madness that had been building up for so long.

At the same time, I also realized that I was no longer afraid of flying.

But that’s it.

My anger, which flew like a rocket or a missile, definitely caused some kind of shock or blow to the guy.

However, the blow is no different from an ant showing sharp teeth inflicting a small wound on a human’s fingertip.

A person who didn’t know they would be bitten by an ant might have been a little surprised, had a slightly swollen fingertip, or was able to draw a drop of blood.

I’m saying this again, but it’s an attack that only goes so far.

No matter how hard the ants try, their attack cannot kill a human or cause irreversible damage.

Still, I was satisfied.

I consumed the very large artifact that may have been my only lifeline like a magicite bomb, but in any case, I gave that arrogant being of the abyss a blow to the face of a cosmic being that revealed its complete true self. will be.

‘Hahahaha, it looks good!’

Was it?

‘Do you think I’ll give in to someone like you!’

It might have been something like this. I still remember making grandiose declarations while intoxicated with madness.

Stumbling around as if I was drunk, amid excessive excitement and hallucinations, I continued to talk nonsense, feeling Jang Hyeon-deok’s hand supporting me, and waiting for death, or extinction, to come.

It seems that the enraged [Mountain Predator] was planning to make a real ‘attack’ this time.

I guess I wasn’t the only one who sensed this. At that time, I could feel the earth shaking and fearing the cruel violence that the being of the abyss would carry out.

However, what came back was not a fatal and irreversible destruction, but an eerie voice that came from Jang Hyeon-deok’s mouth.

‘It is truly an amazing achievement.’

It was a surreal voice, as if it had been created by rubbing silk over jade that had been polished for a long time.

No matter how you think about it, it wasn’t Jang Hyeon-deok’s voice. Suddenly, Jang Hyeon-deok’s body was possessed by some transcendent being.

‘A blow was inflicted on the manifest being of the abyss. Regardless of the significance of the blow, you are a person who deserves praise just for coming up with such an idea and actually putting it into action.’

There is no need for any other reasoning.

That tone and content. It was clear who had possessed Jang Hyeon-deok’s body.
