One of the first things I do when I get to my new lab is examine my new items. Starting with the tracker.
I turn the screen on for the watch before finding a map on it with the general area around me and a circle with a line through it on one corner. Likely meaning that the doctor is currently nowhere to be found and is in a mana plane.
Good. With this thing I should be able to tell the moment he leaves the mana plane.
And just in case there’s a spy amongst our ranks, I don’t tell anyone about this other than the skeleton. Who immediately appears overjoyed by it for some reason.
It doesn’t take me long to find out why though.
Apparently the doctor has made some brief appearances over my time here. Even if those appearances have just been to briefly open a rift to battlefields where he would drop bombs on us.
The man clearly hasn’t recovered though. He’s still badly injured with an entire arm and a hand missing. With the man seemingly using his space magic to move things.
And he looks livid every time he appears.
Which makes sense.
He hasn’t stepped out of the mana plane though, even with his appearances. The doctor just opens the rifts and tosses out the bombs before closing the rifts almost immediately.
Not letting even a single attack make it through in the process.
As for healing his wounds? He shouldn’t even consider it.
The doctor’s face has been plastered across wanted posters all across the world as an ‘enemy of the Undying Magician’, along with all of his atrocities. Making it so that no healer will ever treat him.
What’s worse is that the only healers who could even heal his wound are generally nicer people.
They’re healers after all.
Magicians who use healing magic are often disconnected with the brutalities of magician combat.
Even the Class S healer magician from the abandoned continents was neutral. The nature magician.
And that’s generally the case for most of them.
But none of those neutral magicians want to make a bunch of enemies by treating a criminal. Nor would they likely treat a criminal like him in the first place.
So those wounds aren’t going away.
The only issue has been finding and keeping him in place to kill him.
And now the ‘finding him’ issue is gone too thanks to Crimson. Even if I have no idea where Crimson managed to find the doctor’s blood to track him by.
On another note, I’m very thankful that Crimson didn’t just kill him and is instead letting me do it. Because I need to do this myself.
I have to.
Things don’t feel like they’ll end unless I’m the one to personally cut his head off and burn his corpse to ash.
I catch myself clenching my fist before I shake my fist out and turn my focus to the outfit in front of me. Along with a second and third outfit that I already found in my room with a note from Crimson about it being ‘just in case’.
The sight of them make me chuckle before I examine the first one. And what I find is rather interesting.
It’s made from numerous different types of mana all formed into one object. With each of the enchantments on it designed to duplicate the different materials in the outfit to reform into a set form when damaged.
Honestly, there’s probably only one way to make a perfect outfit for me that can’t get and stay damaged. But the only time magician that could do it is still not contactable.
So I’ll have to wait until either I can contact him to ask him to make one, or until I can learn to use the time mana in my own body to do it.
I’ve been focusing a lot more on raising my mana arcs and training my mana manipulation for a while now. Rather than trying to split an arc of time and space mana from my body into my mana arcs.
But when I finally reach Class S and have a comfortable control of mana manipulation, I should go back and continue that research.
Because it would be very nice to learn time magic.
Space magic too, but right now, time magic is more important.
All to make it so I no longer end up streaking.
I give a firm nod of my head at that thought before going ahead and placing the three outfits in my storage device. Then I head over to my lab.
It’s best not to wear them when experimenting. Considering that it would be a waste if they ended up completely destroyed immediately after getting them.
Simply because I was testing explosives while wearing them.
Lucky for me, this Magic Tower does, in fact, have insulation against explosives for their labs. Which makes it perfectly fine to test my explosive magitech devices here.
I have learned something in this latest battle after all.
Explosives are good tools to use when I don’t have to worry about dying.
Just explode both myself and my enemies. Then deal with the aftermath.
Not many people expect a suicide bomber after all.
Although, considering how I just broadcast myself crashing a ship with an explosive in it to kill a Class S magician, I doubt it’ll work quite as well the next time around.
Still. It’ll still work to a degree.
I just have to make sure it doesn’t destroy my new lovely outfits.
That thought gives me pause before I begin genuinely considering if maybe I should try adding explosion resistance to these outfits. But after a few probes at the outfits themselves, I find that they already have too much mana and enchantments on them.
So I can’t really fit more.
A shame.
Anyway, time to experiment with explosives.
