If you want peace (5)

noon the next day.

As scheduled, the orientation of the ‘Anti-Beast Strategy Consortium’ began.

The empty lecture hall from yesterday was filled with people, and before our turn on the stage, Claire was giving an outline of the consortium.

“…so, we, the Human Alliance, introduced new technologies for more efficient power reform…” Unlike his usual uncle-like appearance, he knew how to speak more clearly on stage than he thought.

Anyway, no matter how good his demeanor is, the essence is that he is the head of Deneb.

I turned my head and called for Skadi who was sitting next to me.

She was showing off her pouting teeth with her hands on her swollen face.

“It’s a lecture soon. Take care of your expression.”

“Who am I doing this for?”

The ferocious eyes turned to me.

So, is it my fault that I’m not feeling well?

“Yesterday, as promised, I went in early.”

“Even if you come in, you’ll just do the work. Heung.”

So what more do you want?

If you come to work, you have to work.

Playing is the next story.

“There was a good reason for that.”

The confidential document I received from Claire last night.

I had to spend half a day reading and understanding the contents of ‘Tartaros’.

A theory that uses pieces of information from the Witchbeast remaining in the sympathetic nervous system.

Although there were many problems, the idea itself was groundbreaking.

It was well worth the investment for a full night.

‘And I can solve the problem.’

I don’t know why Claire brought this to me, but I thought the intention was to complete this unfinished thing in my heart.

The problems scattered throughout Tartarus were all things I could solve.

“Relax your expression and prepare. Don’t forget what I asked for.”

“Hmph. Got it.”

“Adeline. Prepare yourself too.”

“Yes. No, yes.”

Adeline slapped her on the mouth, probably not familiar with honorifics yet.

Whoa…

In the midst of swallowing a sigh, all of Claire’s announcements were over.

“Then, let’s invite Professor Yujin Kang, the general manager of this consortium.”

When I stepped onto the stage first, dry applause continued from all directions.

There was no hot reaction like the society.

Unlike a place where people were simply united by their passion for learning, this is a place where all interests on the battlefield collide.

Of course, since I dealt with realistic issues more seriously, the eyes of the high-ranking people who filled the lecture hall were coldly looking only at my potential.

“Nice to meet you. I am Yujin Kang.”

Even so, I got lucky as usual.

realistic problem. potential for me.

These are all meaningless propositions.

I’ve been through this kind of situation all over the world.

Even if I haven’t briefed the military, I’m sure it’s over three digits.

Such experiences translate into present calm and confidence.

As usual, I approached the presentation with a calm image.

“There are two major propositions of this consortium: the spread of the ‘Rotation Body Kit’ and the universal application of the ‘Sympathetic Nervous System’.”

First, the ‘rotating body kit’.

This is a kit that applies the thesis I wrote, ‘multiple mediation of the circle’, and can give the power of the circle to the weapon just by attaching it to the artifact.

The efficiency of magic amplification is several times that of existing artifacts, and the price is rather cheaper.

Although the process is difficult, it is a problem that can be overcome if a production line is established.

Supply isn’t difficult, so if you start mass production, you’ll be able to raise your hunter power several times more than you do now.

“The rotating body kit is based on a technical partnership between me and the ‘Maria’ brand.”

Of course you can’t do it for free.

Because I have to earn money too.

Because of this, I plan to sign a trilateral memorandum of understanding between Central Police and the military in the near future.

“And in the case of the sympathetic nervous system, we want to implement combat training specialized in telepathic combat by establishing a special education section.”

Combat through mind sharing has not yet become commonplace.

It makes sense to start with a handful of people now, even if one day it expands to the entire battlefield.

This was the idea of establishing a separate specialized lecture later.

“This is also the end of the lecture contract with Helios Academy.”

President Vincent, who was sitting far away, nodded.

After the short presentation, a busy response followed from all over the lecture hall.

They were people who were serious about the war itself, not public achievements.

They were actively reviewing the presentation, taking notes or making phone calls.

Anyway, the content itself is attractive.

‘There are people who don’t.’

Of course, the opposite also exists.

Most of them were high-ranking people, who were more interested in the merits and honors derived from war than war.

They are the ones who don’t like my appointment to the general manager position, no matter what my presentation is about.

The same law applies to the earth, here, and wherever people live.

“Okay, that’s the end of the prepared presentation.”

Applause followed.

It was more enthusiastic applause than before.

People who liked my presentation must have been more enthusiastic.

“but.”

However, I didn’t end there.

Since I came up here, I had no intention of going down normally.

“Some will question it.”

I was prepared to break even their false greed.

“Is it okay to entrust a kid with only 5 stars as the general manager of such a large project? Isn’t it right to end up in the position of technical advisor. Things like that.”

malevolent malevolent-

The son-in-law was upset.

Half the people who are embarrassed are half the people who show their displeasure.

In fact, my tone was quite disrespectful to speak in a gathering of such high-ranking people.

“What… what are you doing…!”

Skadi was also frightened and was looking this way.

A look of bewilderment filled his contemplative face.

Still, I didn’t stop and continued.

Because once you start, you have to see the end.

“I have no intention of begging for recognition.”

I tossed the mic and snarled in a voice that captured my mind.

“”I’ll have no choice but to admit it anyway””

People everywhere trembled.

Suggestions with gloomyness are just as effective.

Some yelled at me for being rude, but I ignored it.

Ignoring it, I signaled to Skadi and Adeline.

It meant come up.

“The scheduled announcement is over, but I would like to add one more thing here.”

In the corner of the stage, Adeline stretched her sympathetic nervous system.

It was the base of the nervous system, where nothing connected, just a skeleton.

While she was preparing a wide blank sheet, Skadi connected me to the magic power transmission circuit.

It was something I had requested in advance, and the demonstration that was to follow would consume a lot of mana, so I needed her help.

“Crazy, really…! How are you going to handle the aftermath!?”

“You don’t have to bear it.”

“What did you say···?”

I whispered softly to her connecting the spell.

“They’ll have to deal with it.”

Skadi blinked and raised a question mark.

Instead of answering, I energized Adeline’s sympathetic nervous system.

The confidential document of ‘Project: Tartarus’ that I read last night.

It is a technique that analyzes the sympathetic nervous system of the Demon Beast and brings out the information dormant within it to the present world.

As a premise for that, a technique that requires a “complete” interpretation of the sympathetic nervous system.

And I have the information of all the monsters I killed, as well as the interpretation version.

The contents of 300 pages and the accumulated problems in them are most of them supplemented and revised through my knowledge, and have a complete look.

Deed…

Magical power oscillates, and the son-in-law is dyed black.

Before long, a huge wave from the sympathetic nervous system filled the lecture hall.

*

The serene interior of Centralpolis.

In the middle of it, a pair of coolly shining eyes gazed.

He is tall and has the appearance of a nobleman.

An impressive man with fiercely raised eyes, Humel coldly glared at the center of the deepest part of enemy lines.

“As expected, the range of movement is extremely limited…”

His ability is called ‘presence and shadow’, and is focused on erasing his own presence from the opponent’s spirit.

Its power is enough to deceive even the eyes of the Constellation, befitting his status as the highest rank.

Thanks to this, he was the only demon who took the position next to Balthazar thanks to his assassination of numerous constellations.

However, even his powerful ability was inevitably faded in Genesis.

It was because of the existence of numerous constellations overlooking this place.

“Only the number of constellations residing there is five… It’s true that it’s the deepest part.”

Only in this way, even if you release only a small amount of magic, you will be immediately discovered.

No matter how powerful he was, he was specialized in infiltration and assassination, and he was incapable of dealing with all five constellations at once.

‘If you don’t have the ability, avoid it and stop.’

So, he utilized ‘acting’, one of his specialties.

He knocked out a human who was delivering a parcel nearby, and infiltrated this place with that identity.

The stupid humans didn’t notice his disguise…

‘Move as stealthily as possible. So, until I figure out the plan of the death god…’

All for Balthazar.

As he clenched his fists, a voice flew from behind.

“Hey Hugh. It’s lunchtime, so why don’t you go take a break?”

A delivery man with a good impression called Humel.

“I’ll finish the afternoon delivery and come back.”

“Tell that already? Feeling hungry?”

“You can finish quickly and have dinner early.”

“You draw? The young man with the clear face is sincere~”

“It’s overrated.”

Mine Humel.

He was as sincere in his acting as he was in stealth and camouflage…

‘…there is an envoy preparing here.’

I heard that it is one of the nearby lecture halls, so I plan to check it while moving the courier.

And if you see the opportunity, you can infiltrate inside.

‘This way?’

According to the map, it must be nearby.

He paced the interior with quick but not impatient steps.

That moment.

“······!”

A terrifying aura ran through his body.

He fixed the courier that he almost dropped and focused on the energy he had just before.

“This···.”

Undoubtedly. It is the magic power.

Besides, the feeling was very similar to that of a certain magic beast that Humel knew.

blazing fire.

A mighty aura that bears the fear of the ruling dragon.

“Diablo-sama…?”

the moment you realize it.

A thunderous siren echoed throughout Centralpolis.

*

Tartarus.

It is a term for hell in Greek mythology.

I don’t know how the etymology came to this place, but I thought there was no name that was so suitable for this technology.

The remnant information of the beast remaining in the sympathetic nervous system, the ability to collect and collect it, and download the full power of the beast.

It was literally nothing more than ‘necromancy’ that summoned the demon’s soul from the underworld.

‘Wake up.’

To my call, a certain consciousness answers.

The base of the sympathetic nervous system created by Adeline.

I uploaded the nervous system data of the ‘Brave’ there.

The ‘intact’ sympathetic nervous system containing all of the Balaur that I had perfected in my lifetime.

In it, the information of the monsters accumulated over many years, as well as the information of the monsters I had killed, remained intact.

and i

Killed hundreds of thousands of demons.

beyond their bodies.

Even killed their king, ‘Diablo of the Fallen Fire’.

“”Wake up””

The magic power moves.

Demonic energy leaked from the nervous system and attacked everywhere.

A siren sounded loudly, and the red warning lights began to shine fiercely.

A lecture hall in chaos.

In a place full of all kinds of confusion and agitation, I was the only one who pulled out the other side of old memories.

“Eh, what is this! Professor Yujin Kang…!”

“Fine.”

Skadi’s voice trembled with embarrassment.

I looked at her quietly.

“Believe me.”

“·······.”

The trembling of the hand that infused mana subsided.

Purple eyes turned to me, and I nodded.

“Professor Yujin Kang! What are you doing!”

“Magi…! That’s not Magi!”

“What are you doing!”

The high-pitched voices heard from all directions are buried in the storm and scattered fleetingly.

In the darkness that engulfed my son-in-law, my eyes only saw Claire.

Ssik-

she laughed.

As if I knew it would be.

Our gazes crossed without paying attention to Laflis, who was making a fuss next to us.

her mouth was open

‘Do it.’

I saw it and closed my eyes.

That nobleman, after all, isn’t sane.

-Kurrureu…

The sympathetic nervous system is complete.

The pieces are put together, and the information comes into reality.

Thus, in the silence of the lecture hall, eyes like a pair of sparks shone.

“This is what summoned all the monsters sleeping in the sympathetic nervous system to the real world.”

Quaang!

A giant leg stepped out of the darkness and trampled a corner of the lecture hall.

Eyes twinkling in flames glowed, and the head broke through the darkness.

Huge horns shattered the ceiling, and breath like a hot wind flowed from between their teeth.

Thus, a huge dragon appeared.

The shadow of ‘Diablo of the Corrupted Fire’ revealed its dreary majesty in front of everyone.

“They are the shadows of all the demons I have killed.”

The nightmare of the dead mankind in the past.

As if responding to the evil dragon’s return, numerous eye lights shone in the darkness behind.

All the dragons I killed and took their lives.

Their shadows, the country is seething in hell.

“You still can’t acknowledge me?”

The son-in-law is silent.

Those who could not even swallow dry saliva are silent in the dark.

Silence is affirmation.

I took that to mean that they had no disagreement.

In the middle of it, Inspector Claire raised her hand.

“What’s the name of that power?”

“·······.”

name.

I pondered the proposition for a while.

and concluded

This bizarre and magnificent technique that was previously named ‘Tartaros’.

But now I can’t use that name.

Because I can’t reveal the fact that the secret was exposed to me.

So, I came up with a new name.

The power that I perfected to work by reaping the souls of demonic beasts that are seething everywhere.

“Lee Mae Mang-ryang (魑魅魍魎).”

That was the new name I gave it.
