Alright
A few hours later, Asch wakes up on top of his bed. His face has a ridiculous amount of pain coursing through it, and it has swollen to about twice that of an ordinary person.
"Are you alright?"
At Mira's words, he unconsciously doubted his ears. Where and how are you looking at it for you to be able to think that I'm alright. Are you looking at this bulge on my face. This bulge on my face.
"......they were rather good attacks. I wouldn't expect any less of the doll I created"
However, the Magician brags there. He makes on his bulging face an expression that's saying that such attacks are a walk in the park.
"To be completely honest, Asch-sama is too weak in close combat. I think your disposition for magic is impeccable, but you do not have even a fragment of attacking sense"
"......"
The competent butler who stabs her bladed words deep into him.
Asch's weak point lies precisely there. His secret technique,『Demon Fusion』, also makes close combat possible by taking in the battle sense of the Destruction Demon Diablo. His own hand-to-hand combat capability is infinitely close to zero.
"Still, Maximus Magic can't be used multiple times after all......it hurts after all"
"Nobody cares about your pain or whatnot, but it is certain that that is not efficient. You can use it only once per battle after all. You will get knocked down for several days after the magic is dispelled after all"
A competent butler who reproaches him, pretty much saying, 'You are useless'. A manic master who's unbearably frustrated. However, the sad part is how he can't even make a groan.
It's precisely so, that the magic the Dark Magician developed this time around is extraordinarily fitting for him. Numerous shadow hands holding weapons and attacking the opponent. Depending on how he uses it, he has complete mastery over both defence and offence......if he just had the battle senses.
"......shall I train"
"What a rosy and youthful thing for a 200 years-old old man to say. Your puberty has long since passed, right? I cannot possibly imagine you becoming stronger than this. You will remain with zero battle sense for the rest of your life"
"......"
The Dark Magician silently, shows Mira his back. He's going to end up crying......if she goes any further, he'll surely, end up crying.
"I think for Asch-sama, a more cowardly, cunning approach is better. I believe it would be better, if you better understand your own self"
"......"
He already, can't make a sound. If he makes a sound, the fact that's he's crying will end up being exposed.
"Is that, all?"
"......"
Asch who silently nods and returns to the Taboo Mansion.
Shuffle Shuffle.
He shuffles quickly and heads straight to his laboratory. He tries to escape from his own reality. He wants to flee to his expertise right away when he's depressed. His expertise is, in other words, dissection and experimentation.
Lying over there were corpses from the other day.
"......in the end, one pill was the limit for the Magic Pills"
After feeding two identical ones to them, they died in an instant. It's such a potent drug that one can't survive after it surpasses a certain threshold. If this Magic Pill is also Delta's invention, then he has grown into a more excellent researcher than Asch imagined.
"How magnificent"
While making an ecstatic expression, Asch starts the dissection.
"Hmm......even when they're dead, their muscles are strengthened huh......their magic power value too......it has gone up. Likely their reflex speed as well huh......Mira"
"Yes"
Before he knows it, the competent is on standby beside him.
"Is the analysis of the Magic Pill complete?"
"Lloyd is conducting it, but it looks like it will still take some time"
"Make him hurry up as much as possible......besides, I sure need more guinea pigs......is there any war nearby?"
"No. Not in these parts"
"......tch, they sure don't occur when you want them to. Aah......isn't there anywhere I can procure them......aah, won't somebody come and kill me. Before I meet Delta, I'd like to analyse it by all means......aah......time's running out......time's running......"
Asch circles round and round on the spot. Round and round and round and round.
"......you are......insane"
"......aah......time's running out......time's running out......I've got to have him know what kind of a person I am......time's running out for me......time's running out......aaaaaah......it's almost time, isn't it......aah, even though I can get my hands on plenty if somebody would come and kill me......aaaaaah......."
Mira's voice, did not enter the ears of the corpses-engrossed Dark Magician.
