Hermit Wizard

* * *

The country was turned upside down.

As Anchor said, on the Internet, video footage taken directly by citizens near the channel began to upload.

The place where the creeps and channels occurred was also near Han River Park, so many of the spring outings appeared right in front of people's noses, and even those working in nearby offices could not be witnesses.

The Internet is starting to explode. There's all sorts of stories, tailing comments, mentions, posts. I told Parvasch that I had seen various speculations and discussions from geopolitical to governmental conspiracy, as well as modest assumptions that dust reflects sunlight and is a natural phenomenon.

“I am now anonymous. 'That's actually a passageway to another dimension, so I don't know what's coming, so evacuate the area immediately. You're going to be buried on the Internet, aren't you? ”

[I know.]

“When that happens, I thought everyone would panic and run away. Why are there so many spectators? “

I looked at the TV as if I didn't deserve it.

Near Mapo Bridge, there are now firefighters and police to investigate incidents, as well as soldiers to quarantine the surroundings. They were hurrying to barricade, but close by were dozens of citizens of the public service.

I grumble as I look at the opaque blue light emitted by the channel in the screen.

“No matter who looks at it, you can see it's a color that's not in the world. ”

[Humanity here seems to have evolved in a direction with no instinctive fear of the channel at all. So maybe that channel is really the first fully open channel on Earth.]

As soon as I saw the channel of Mapo Bridge, I could see that it had not only completed its evolution into adulthood, but it was also in a state of complete openness. The magnitude is huge, but the magic circuit must be visible to the general public.

“Origin is this dimension? Or over there?”

This is a very important factor.

[Min Joon, you've never been on that bridge before?]

“Yes.”

After he came up to Seoul, he was confined to the room for almost three months to set up the shield, and he never went out after the shield had been completed. I never went to that bridge outside the shield.

[If the Savior of this world had opened in the past about 20 years, there would have been a seed channel in that place.]

“Yes.”

[If the Savior of the other side had opened, there would have been no sign of this side, and suddenly it would have opened like that. If you check the presence or absence of seed channels in advance, you can see what kind of case it is, but you won't know until you do that.]

“If the Savior on this side of the world is completely open, that means the Savior was there until just now, right? ”

[That's right. If it was the Savior's channel, it would have been completely open because he had his hand.]

“Oh, you can't leave the real house today. If you're still near Mapo Bridge, it's not even a few kilometers from here. ”

Instead of making fun of me like this, Parvasse agreed with me.

[Yes, you don't have to take risks.]

I have now spent more than half of my life with Parvasse, and in a way, he is the one who has most influenced my personality formation.

He repeatedly infused the brain with passive stories about the dangers of the Savior and how miserable life as a living dimension would be until now.

Naturally, in my head, the Savior hardened his existence to absolute evil and the most vicious monster in the whole world.

But the savior is there? What if there's a 0.1% chance of that? The safest place in the shield is in my house.

Yeah, it's dangerous out there.

Don't go out there for nothing. I'm just going to check the situation on TV here.

Then, me and Parvasse could figure out the movements of the Mapo Bridge channel. Like a long wound, the channel tapers diagonally, and begins to widen the crack.

[Quickly.]

“Are you coming? ”

I swallowed dry saliva under tension...

Ah, the moment I told you, it seems like an unknown object in the vicinity of Mapo Bridge is getting bigger and bigger!

I saw the odd spectators gradually retreating. Even the soldiers and police who had to protect the barricades were being filmed on camera.

Then, as soon as the crack expanded close to the circle at the end of the expansion without a single crack, the opaque blue light that was blazing at the cross-section of the channel began to stir up as if it were boiling.

Then, through the blue light, a white pillar rises.

Oh, that one, that one, that one!

The anchor can't connect the horse.

Now, in the blue light, something white pops out!

I don't know if it's an appropriate comparison in my eyes, but it looked like a white nothing. Vegetables. Diagonally extending up to the sky, the top leg is rounded, and the surface is smooth enough to feel bad.

But it soon became apparent that it was due to an illusion caused by the angle of the camera.

I wanted to do it like it was a cylindrical object, spinning or spinning, but the other side, which the camera didn't contain, was revealed. You can see two dull yellow eyes, a small hole in the nose instead of the nose, and a sharp tooth in the long torn mouth.

Aah, aah, aah.

The anchor panicked and failed to speak, as it represented the minds of the viewers and the citizens of the scene.

The white pillar that I thought looked like nothing was the back of that being. It starts to move out of the channel more and more, and then all the way out of the channel to the shoulders, arms and legs.

A ten-metre kidney. A long cylindrical head that can take up half the height. Arms, bodies, and legs that look so small to support such a large head are covered with clothing of a form that cannot be found on Earth.

Thus, its entire body was exposed in front of the camera.

The anchor no longer makes any comment. The screams of the staff, the panicked conversations, and the whale yelling at someone leaked on TV.

But without interrupting the broadcast, it still shines in the light of what it shot through the helicopter. I looked at him and murmured.

“Huge white body, upright gait, long head corresponding to half of the body..”

[That's the kind you've seen before.]

Yeah, how many times have I practiced Dimension Leap Magic? An alien species that Avatar formed by magic has encountered in the interstellar dimension. No, there was a little conflict that didn't end with a confrontation, exactly.

“Ashpim Giant? ”

Near the channel is already a mess. I can't hear the gunshots yet, but I can see the spectators running. It seemed odd to see people retreating at such a fast pace that they seemed to be less than a dog. The giant looks down at those people with his mouth slightly open.

Then, all of a sudden, I start to walk out loud. While most people are fleeing at a rapid pace, there are some that are not moving in the middle. I feel terrified.

Just a short walk to the place just before leaving the barricade, the giant begins to look around with a frown on his face, as if something were bothering him.

A giant opens his mouth wide. Hundreds of teeth were exposed.

I looked at him and muttered loudly.

“Do they eat human beings? ”

Parvasse calmly answers my question.

[It may vary slightly from dimension to dimension, but it's not their favorite food ingredient. It's too small to be used as an energy source for that giant body.]

“I'm not going to rush to eat it right now."

I never thought I'd see that giant in the world where I live, even in the vicinity of a bridge a few kilometers from home. I was talking to Parvash in a dark state, and the giant opened his mouth and spoke.

No, from the Giant's point of view, he said it, and from those near the Giant, he would have been assaulted with a sound or something.

“m 'ao! ”

It was a short syllable, but echoes echo across the forest and river. I can see citizens fleeing from their minds and the soldiers surrounding the giants falling into place.

The microphone in the helicopter, hundreds of meters above, was big enough to catch the sound. The sound of the helicopter is so intense that it buries, it's a basin beyond the human trajectory. Those close to the giant must have felt the pain of tearing their ears and the shock of shaking their guts.

The giant kept talking without saying anything about the situation around him.

“mwam ’aaaoaauu · ·.. nguoomoom’ oowauaa · · ·.. mmooom ’aawooaawoo! ”

I recalled what Parvasse had explained before. Because sharp teeth overlap around the gums as well as on the palate and floor, they evolved to leave only roots in their teeth to avoid the incision of tongue cuts.

Since the tongue has only a very small mark on the tip of the throat, it mainly makes a sound with only long, thin lips and glottis, distinguishing its meaning by its subtle height and length.

In other words, learning that language was not a vocabulary that I could hear.

The spell of the station was completed by quickly energizing the horsepower circuit located in the ear.

A subtle light wraps around the ear and disappears. An interpreter magic that can understand any language listed in an academic record.

“aooooam 'woo! ngooiooam 'woo! mmmoooom 'oowaaw · · · wooooomm 'nguoowam! mmooom 'aawoooaawooo! ”

No matter how good you look just now, the buzzing sounds like a booze (and incredibly loud), and it's meaningful.

I had a thoughtful interpretation.

“Nothing? Dangerous tongue · · ·. Exchange my voice, dangerous tongue · · · high · · · insects in ears · ·? Move out, or keep in the tomb. ”

[· · · · · ·]

That's what I said, but this is fart.

In fact, I'm still underachieving the magic of this line using academic records. I don't spend a lot of time because I seem to be pushed out of priorities.

Parvasse, who listened to me, turned into a ridiculous fart and corrected my misinterpretation. Unlike me, this is not magic, it is' perfectly aware ’of this language listed in the academic record. A spirit who desires to be self, a cell.

[· · · ’No Wizard. Wizard, interpret my words. Tell them to get rid of that roaring bug before they get rid of it. ’]

Oh, I see. You're looking for a wizard.
