Chapter 114
After a short deliberation, he decided to hand over the summit’s whistle to Adela.
There was Mimir’s strong recommendation, and I thought it would be better in many ways.
[Adela. If you are awake, can you come to my room? But I have something to give you.]
He said that the horns were sweet too, and he thought it would be better to give them away now, so he texted Adela right away.
Fortunately, the current time is 10:22. Adela’s average sleep time is 11, so she’s probably awake.
Ugh-!
[Sender: Adela]
[Are you going to give it?]
As expected, Adela was up.
[uh. I’ll tell you more when it comes.]
The reply came right away.
[(Confused teddy bear emoticon)]
[yes. I’ll get it right now.]
The answer came like that and about 2 minutes passed.
smart-
There was a knock.
I didn’t even have to check who it was.
I opened the door right away.
When I opened the door, Adela was standing in her nightgown.
“Come in at once.”
“yes.”
Adela came straight into the room. After looking around the room, I sat down on the sofa.
“You don’t need a car, do you?”
“yes.”
Adela doesn’t like putting things in her mouth before bed.
“I guess you were sleeping?”
Hair tied up to one side.
The world’s most comfortable sleepwear.
From a somewhat tired-looking face to the traces of a pillow left on the cheek.
I think I was lying in bed and getting ready to sleep before I came here.
“I was just lying down. What more?”
Adela’s expression was very serious.
Judging from the fact that he called himself ahead of the competition at this time, he must have expected that what I was going to say would be something unusual.
“It’s nothing serious, so you can relax. I literally just called you this because I wanted to give you something.”
Adela tilted her head.
What the hell was he thinking of giving him, so he called himself at this time?
It was clear that he was thinking that way.
“What is it?”
“I-I’m sorry, but it’s a little too much to show.”
“… … Can’t you show me?”
Adela’s head tilted even further.
“There’s a reason I can’t show you.”
Adela, of course, knows how the top pyroxene is formed.
That’s why I couldn’t take out the top pyroxene right now.
If you ask why you already have the MVP reward, there is no way to answer.
Since I can’t talk about my relationship with Sophia-sama, it’s better not to talk about the summit’s pyroxene.
“Then how are you going to give it to me?”
“Close your eyes.”
“… … ?”
Adela tilted her head the other way, with an expression of wanting to know what the situation was.
He even narrowed his eyes.
“… … You’re not kidding, are you?”
“no way. Did I call you at this time to play a prank on a player who has to play tomorrow?”
“… … That’s right.”
Adela quickly let go of her guard.
“Then why are your eyes closed?”
“I will explain later. Wrap it up for now.”
“… … .”
“hurry.”
“… … yes.”
Adela closed her eyes with a puzzled expression.
“Can you open your mouth just a little bit?”
“… … up to the mouth? Are you giving me something to eat?”
Adela opened her eyes again in surprise.
“uh.”
“that… … Eating something you don’t know… … .”
Adela expressed her disapproval with an expression that seemed not to be a little off.
“Trust me, just once. It only takes one time. You will never regret it.”
“… … all right.”
Adela, who was lost in thought for a moment, closed her eyes again with an uneasy expression and slowly opened her mouth.
“eww… … .”
A small, anxious moan.
There was no way he wouldn’t be afraid to put something he didn’t know into his mouth.
Apart from believing in me, you will be anxious.
Adela closed her eyes tightly and opened her mouth appropriately.
“thank you.”
I thanked Adela for believing in me and accepting my request.
Then, he took out the top pyroxene and put it into Adela’s mouth.
“… … !”
As if startled by the sensation of something cold entering her mouth, Adela widened her eyes.
“Prepare.”
He told Adela, who seemed eager to ask what he had just eaten, to prepare it without hesitation.
“Preparation, what preparation… … . Ugh!”
Adela suddenly grabbed her chest and lowered her head.
The sound of Adela’s heart pounding echoes loudly.
“What you just ate is an elixir. The world’s greatest elixir that may take your achievements to the next level.”
“rain… approximately… … .”
Adela looks at me with a painful expression.
I move to the back of such Adela, the place closest to the heart. I put my hand on my back.
“From now on, start mana circulation as I induce.”
He induced Adela’s mana while recalling the divine grace absorption method he had heard from Mimir in advance.
“eww… … Ugh!”
Perhaps because of the pain, following Judo was a bit clumsy.
“Focus. The efficiency of the elixir you just took depends on how well you cycle mana.”
But that’s for a while.
Adela started following my mana induction 100%.
“good. Looks like you’ve gotten used to it Then I’ll speed it up a bit.”
I immediately increased the mana induction rate.
Is it because it has already been followed once? This time, I followed Judo without hesitation.
So dozens of cycles continue.
“As it is now. Just do that.”
I slowly removed my hand from Adela’s back.
Despite my lack of guidance, Adela moved Mana perfectly according to the route I directed.
“suddenly… what… … .”
As if they got used to it quickly, they even talk now.
“Shh. don’t open your mouth Focus on opening your mouth. The elixir will begin to take effect in earnest within the next minute. At that time, in order not to lose consciousness, you must prepare your mind from now on.”
“… … .”
At my words, Adela was about to say something, but immediately shut her mouth.
Through my warning tone, it seems that he sensed that the situation was serious.
pounding!
“town!”
And at that moment, Adela’s heart beat again.
Pound, thump, thump!
three times this time.
then five times.
It was the sound of God’s grace absorbed in Adela’s body gathering in Adela’s heart.
Pound, pound, pound, pound, pound!
It rang in succession, like the roar of a motorcycle engine.
next moment.
Whoaaaaaaaah-!
Adela’s body shone brightly.
light of mana.
At the same time, Adela’s body floated up.
Weeing! Weeing!
Mana swirled around Adela, who floated in the air.
Translucent white mana, proof of pure mana.
It accelerated rapidly, ripping through the room.
The momentum was so intense that all the structures in the room were blown away.
It was as if a typhoon had blown into the room.
Kaaaang-!
I blocked the structures flying towards me with a barrier.
About 3 minutes passed like that.
Whoa… … .
Suddenly, the storm of mana faded, and the structure in the room fell to the floor.
The storm of mana that scattered the structure began to be absorbed into Adela’s body.
“… … done.”
Watching that, I slowly released the barrier.
Entered into a stable period of absorption of God’s grace.
Now Adela will fall into a state of trance.
In that state, the mana circulation will continue until the grace of God digests all the mana tomorrow morning.
‘I’ll wake up just before noon.’
According to Mimir, it takes approximately 8 to 12 hours for complete absorption.
I heard that the more talented the person, the longer the absorption rate.
How long will Adela absorb?
looking forward to it a little
‘Couldn’t it be more than 12 hours?’
Tomorrow’s man-to-person match, Adela’s match, is scheduled for 4pm.
If the cycle is not completed by then, it is a failure.
Well, there are still 16 hours left, so there’s no point in losing by default.
‘Then I’ll start soon too.’
I was still floating in the air, perched directly below Adela, who was emitting mana.
‘… … The amount of mana is beyond imagination?’
Should I say 300 to 400 years worth of mana? The amount of mana is huge.
‘If only I could absorb all of this remaining mana… … .’
I immediately started mana cycling.
Because I have already gone through many trials and errors, I know what kind of structure the circle of truth is and how it circulates.
In the first place, the ring of truth is not as complex as the previous three small infinity circles.
Just as when weaving the ring of expansion, the problem of mana was bigger than the problem of structure.
It wasn’t that the chain of truth was difficult to weave because of its complex structure, it was just that it was difficult to weave because of the lack of mana.
As long as you have enough mana, you can weave as much as you like.
“Whoa… … .”
I took a long breath and contemplated the mana around me.
‘Come here.’
I gather all the mana that is trying to leak out of the room to me.
Control is not that difficult for me now.
‘Come to me. Gather and create a new ring within me.’
Mana flowed out of Adela’s body and into mine from the outside.
Soon, I began to create new pathways within my body.
I focused all my attention on the sensation of mana running through my body.
continue, continue.
Forgetting other senses, forgetting even the concept of time and space.
I just felt mana.
‘It’s fun!’
‘Are you happy too? me too!’
Listening to Mana’s cheers, my consciousness sank deeper and deeper.
Perhaps the next time I open my eyes, I will be in the 5th circle.
With such conviction, I plunged into the depths of the sea of consciousness.
* * *
lunch the next day.
It wasn’t until two o’clock in the afternoon that Adela opened her eyes.
As soon as I opened my eyes, what I saw was the scenery of the messed up room.
“… … Typhoon?”
Could it be that a small typhoon blew into the room? Tables, chairs, sofas, everything is a mess.
It was an understandable sight even if a real typhoon had swept through this room.
“Why so… … .”
Adela, distraught at the incomprehensible situation, looked around the room again.
At that moment, the sunlight shining through the window caught my eye.
“… … afternoon?”
Adela’s eyes widened.
Apparently the last time I checked the time was 10:22 at night.
Why is it suddenly daytime?
‘I do not remember.’
Adela grabbed her head with one hand and frowned.
My memory is hazy since 10:22 yesterday.
‘I’m sure I got a call from Ha-yul asking me to come to my room… … .’
I remember coming to this room after that.
I can’t remember what happened after that.
It was as if there was a fog in my head.
“eww… … .”
Adela drooled with a frustrated face. I’ve never drank alcohol, so I don’t have anything to say, but I wonder if this is how it feels when the film is cut.
It’s very frustrating.
Adela, who had been grunting like that, suddenly opened her eyes wide.
“ah! match!”
It’s a memory or something, but that’s not what’s important right now.
The current time is 2:00 noon.
Adela’s match is at 4:10 p.m.
If you don’t move quickly, you will be treated for corruption.
Adela quickly rose from her seat and took a step forward.
No, I was trying to move.
“… … uh?”
Behind the sofa where Adela was sitting.
If he hadn’t found Sin Ha-yul sitting on the floor and concentrating on his mind, he would have moved on.
“… … Mana cycle?”
Shin Ha-yul was performing mana circulation while wearing an old robe.
It was a perfect and beautiful mana circulation that could be understood without using the inner eye.
“Why is the mana cycle in these ruins… … .”
That was when Adela frowned in doubt.
“ah!”
floated!
Adela’s expression brightened instantly.
“flight!”
The puzzling memories came back.
The memory returned after seeing Shin Ha-yul’s mana circulation.
“that’s right. I must have taken the elixir… … .”
Adela’s eyes slowly widened.
‘Did I cycle mana for 16 hours?’
It was about 10:30 when I came to this room yesterday. The current time is 2:00 PM.
This means that he cycled mana for 15 hours and 30 minutes.
“Nonsense… … .”
I hadn’t even heard of mana cycling for more than 15 hours.
What the hell happened to you?
Adela examined her body with a bewildered expression.
Quaang-!
At that moment, the door burst open.
“I was wondering if there was a sound, but you’re awake after all.”
“… … Seokhyun Kim?”
Kim Seok-hyun appeared through the door.
“With this, I can avoid corruption. Fortunately, the.”
Kim Seok-hyun grabbed Adela’s hand and pulled it.
“Let’s go. I will take you to the stadium.”
“yes yes?”
“More details to come on the go. So please come.”
Adela was dragged by Kim Seok-hyun with an expression asking what kind of situation this is, and left the ruined room.
Ooh, ooh, ooh!
The center of the room where everyone has disappeared.
Only the sound of Shin Ha-yul moving Mana filled the room.
