Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 209 - I've Seen It All.

"It took you long enough." Said the voice 

John traced it and found himself staring at one of the containers on the right side of the room. From there, came footsteps which resounded throughout the quiet room. 

Quiet steps which came from behind the container to the middle of the room where the three laid unconscious. 

There were steps, they were definitely there, yet no person could be seen. 

Was it a ghost? Some sort of sound manipulation magic? Or maybe the space itself was manipulated? John didn't know, he didn't know what waited for him if he decided to step foot any further. 

He knew that it was a trap and yet, without a hint of hesitation, he began to walk towards the middle of the room. 

Upon doing so, he could not only see it but feel it. Faint lines and distortions in the air which indicated that there was something there, along with the small amount of magical power oozing around. 

Whoever or whatever it was, tried to suppress it, but it was nowhere near Master Sylvia's ability. 

Once John was around 10 meters away from it, the figure got rid of its camouflaged state allowing John to see its entirety. 

The person hid their face under the hoodie of their dark cloak. Seeing this, John grabbed on to his daggers and was about to pull them out in case the person would suddenly attack him, but before he could, the person suddenly dropped down to their knees. 

It wasn't as if the person had been hurt or lost their footing, they voluntarily did it. They dropped down to one knee and placed their hand over their chest as they kept their head down. 

It was a position that John recognised, one which a person would usually use when meeting a king. Seeing this, John let out a confused 

"Huh?" 

"Welcome back, my king. It appears that you have awakaned." 

Upon hearing this, John asked 

"King?" 

John's confused reaction didn't seem to bother the person at all. 

"That is right. It appears that you have yet to take over this ones body but I already have a plan to help you, my king." Said the person 

The voice sounded like that of a male, but John couldn't see their face, so he couldn't verify it. 

"King this and king that, I'm sorry but..." 

John suddenly vanished and appeared next to the cloaked person before asking 

"Could you please stop wasting my time?" 

Seeing this, the person's eyes widened as he felt sparks of electricity zap him from John's sudden movement. He wasn't able to see it at all. 

Now that the person was terrified, John was about to go over and help the 3 which were unconscious on the ground. 

He could tell from the moment he had walked in that they were who he was looking for. The pink haired boy, his friend and lastly, the pink-haired maid john had met. 

"So the premonition was right... Then that means after this..." 

John stopped moving and motioned his lips for the word 'wait' as the man behind him suddenly shouted 

"W-Wait!" 

Upon hearing this, John turned around and glared at the man. The man had his cloaks hoodie lowered so he could see the person's face. 

Colourless eyes and long orange hair above his orange eyebrows. He appeared to be in his 18s and had a rather masculine yet soft looking face, which at first, didn't seem to harbour any evil, however, John knew exactly what was behind it, and it angered him. 

Without saying anything, John continued to glare at him. Seeing this, the man continued to speak, stuttering at the same time due to how nervous he was. 

"D-Don't go any closer. Otherwise, they'll die." Said the man 

John who heard this, looked over at them and then looked over back at the man. Thinking that John was now afraid and worried, the man continued to talk 

"T-That's right, If you do as I say, I-I'll let them live, but if you don't they'll die." Said the man 

"Die?" John asked as he tilted his head 

The man gulped the little saliva he had as his throat and mouth began to dry out. 

"Y-Yeah... I implanted explosive magic circles inside of them only I can deactivate them. If I die, they'll automatically explode, if you threaten me or don't comply, they'll explode. S-So what's it going to be?" The man asked with a nervous smile 

For a moment, John did nothing but just stare at him, and eventually, darkness slowly began to cloud his eyes once more. 

Seeing this, a smile of excitement and joy filled the man's face. It was working, whatever he had planned was working. 

But suddenly, the darkness suddenly fled back inside returning John's eyes to normal as he placed his hand on his face and began to laugh. 

"Hahaha.... I know." Said john with a bright smile 

Hearing those words sent shivers down the mans spine. Just what did John mean by he knew? 

"You... know...?" The man asked 

"That's right... I know, After all, I've finally remembered." John happily replied 

The man began to panic and raised his hands 

"Y-YOU THINK I'M JOKING?! I-I REALLY WILL KILL THEM!" Said the man 

As he heard this, the smile on John's face disappeared as he coldly replied 

"Go on, but the instant you do, I'll kill you." 

Those words just aggravated the man even more, if worse came to worse, seeing those three die would trigger the reaction in john's anger allowing for his king to gain control. 

"FINE THEN!" Shouted the man as he moved to swing his arm down. 

But before it even began it's motion, he felt something off. His hand, it was sent flying off. 

"Hu-" 

Without even gaining an understanding of what had happened, the man suddenly felt sharp pain of something going through his chest. 

As he looked down to see what it was, he coughed out blood as he muttered the words 

"H..uh...?" 

As he moved his head to turn around, he noticed John standing behind him, coldly staring at the dagger which he had used to pierce the mans back. 

The man wanted to say something, but couldn't. Before anything else could happen, he was suddenly frozen from the inside out. 

But before he could be fully frozen, he used his very last breath to shout it 

"ACTIVATE!!! *Cough*" 

*BOOOOOM!*
