《Psychic Parasite》Chapter 420: The 10-Metre-Tall Figure
Advertisement
It was something Jyorta had pondered a lot about the uses of Aura Induction. Since he was working on the tattoos and Aura Induction, Jyorta wondered if he could apply the same to his aura personifications.
The tattoo world was created from aura personification of hallucination. So, if he created a certain hallucination in a tattoo world and induced it into his foes, would it work?
Jyorta tried it on his teammates and saw that it worked. The only disadvantage was the fact such hallucinations were rigid. He wasn't able to change any variable in them once he deployed them. They had low levels of hallucination.
But, they still had their uses. All Jyorta had to do was prepare some scenarios that he could use to turn around a situation or cause a distraction. For that, such hallucinations stored in his tattoos would come to use.
So, in preparation for that, Jyorta prepared some tattoos. After all, it wasn't guaranteed he would have enough presence of mind to weave complex hallucinations in most situations. In such cases, his tattoos would save him.
After all, he could blindly activate the tattoos by pouring in his aura. All he had to do was maintain the supply of aura the effect within the tattoo needed to function.
When he crashed on the green circle, his limbs broke. He didn't have the presence of mind to maintain a hallucination. That was why he already thought of the tattoo he would use when Ashten was carrying him.
Therefore, the moment he entered the green column and was getting healed, he activated it, ensuring that he would continue to pour aura into it without rest. He then crashed onto the green circle. Thankfully, the activation of the tattoo hadn't stopped as a result.
There was a fluctuation of aura as all the Frenzy Beasts in the area trembled. One of the Spiked Lizards had coiled its tongue around Ashten's legs, intending to pull him when it noticed a spark appear on the ground.
For some reason, its heart trembled in fear as it immediately let go of its hold and retreated. The sparks immediately condensed into the figure of Madam Mary that soon became 10 metres tall. Her gaze was one of disdain as she smirked.
Her massive size scared the Frenzy Beasts as they retreated, moving back as much as 30 metres from her. They stared at her in fear, noticing five psychic arms emerge from her head and dance in the air.

None were stupid enough to not realise what it meant. Five psychic arms; it meant the being before them was a Sky Controller, someone that stood only below the Ancestors. If they had been mindless monsters, they would have just charged at her without thought.
But, it was precisely because of their intelligence did they refrain from attacking her. Becoming intelligent had its pros and cons. In this case, Jyorta made use of their intelligence against them. if the Frenzy Beasts had just blindly changed forth, they wouldn't have been affected much.
After all, Madam Mary's figure was just a projection. As he wasn't controlling it, it wouldn't make them feel any pain even if it attacked. The level of hallucination was pretty low. It was only an illusion.
Another reason it worked was that all of them had seen Madam Mary at least once. It might be when they were brought to the military academy, dumped into the Labyrinth of Frenzy, stored in the storage for later use, or when they were brought into the Graduation Ceremony Battlefield. They might have seen her at least once and would have known her scariness first hand.
They wouldn't have actually seen her Esper powers. But, the fact they were completely helpless before her would have been ingrained in their minds. And now, when they saw the five psychic arms emerging from her head, they would have linked their experiences to the data before their eyes, realising why they were as helpless before her.
Jyorta perfectly used their intelligence against them. Now, even if some Frenzy Beast planned to attack her for whatever cause, it was stopped by its brethren, avoiding the case where they were all annihilated because one of them pissed her off. Mob mentality worked its charm after that, buying the students enough time.
The battlefield full of roars turned silent. The only sounds that resounded were from the other places of battle in the Graduation Ceremony Battlefield. After all, the presence of the large boulders prevented both humans and Frenzy Beasts alike from gazing afar. So, the silence only ensued in the place where the Frenzy Beasts could notice her.
Hovering in the air atop the Military academy was a yellow dome. It was hidden from the notice of the students seated around in the stands, positioned atop the 150-metre-high walls.
Seated inside the dome were around 40 people, with each hailing from an organisation functional in the 7th Ring. They were the people tasked with allotting the secondary jobs to the students. Basically, if they found interest in a student, they would bid for him/her.

And, depending on their respective organisation's rank, they would obtain the student. It was in the case an organisation stronger than them hadn't picked out the respective student. There was a hierarchy established in place.
And, every organisation led a respective force in the army. So, depending on their secondary job, the unit they would be placed in the army as a soldier varied. To ensure they had tight cooperation, their colleagues in their secondary occupation would be their colleagues from their primary occupation, in most of the cases.
It varied based on their individual strength. Overall, the people seated in the dome were those that decided which organisation would recruit which student. The dome was maintained by Madam Mila who didn't do anything apart from that.
Madam Mary was seated in the dome, acting as the representative that noted down the offers each organisation placed. She was also present to ensure there wasn't any chaos among the people present in the dome.
After all, people desired talents in their organisations. With talent, their organisation grew, which in turn led to more benefits for them. So, there was a good chance talks would heat up and even spark a battle between the representatives.
That was why she was present in the scene personally. In the presence of a Sky Controller, they would control themselves. After all, the representatives were only at Tier 4. Anyone at Tier 5 was usually the head of his/her respective organisation. In some powerful organisations, even a deputy would be a Tier 5 being. But that was quite rare.
The crowd had been focusing on the scene where Jyorta managed to reach the green circle. They were then surprised when the Frenzy Beasts suddenly distanced themselves from the place. As all of them were Ground Controllers, they extended their domain to the place, noticing the hallucination effective in the region.
The moment they noticed the smirking 10-metre figure of Madam Mary, most of them reeled their domains in fright. Only then did they realise it was just a figure of her as they shot glances at Madam Mary, screaming in their mind.
'Why did he have to use her figure? If this mad lady flips, she would destroy the entire academy.' The same thought simultaneously echoed in their minds.
'This guy…' Madam Mary's eyelids twitched as she noticed her figure being used to scare away the Frenzy Beasts. 'It was a nice decision, Jyorta.'
Even though she thought that, Madam Mary frowned. Her subtle action caused everyone in the dome to sweat uncontrollably. Some of them even used all their four psychic arms to form a barrier around themselves. As people in power, they knew to the full extent of how scary Madam Mary would be once her switch was flipped.
They then focused on the individual that created the hallucination, 'So, it is Jyorta Bone. He's her grandson, so nothing should happen…hopefully.'
Dalna Doppler grunted, feeling pain in her legs as she had been clawed in the area. Her feet and her right hand had been bitten off by the Frenzy Beasts. After all, she was in a defenceless state after throwing Jyorta. She didn't get any chance to plan a safe landing as she was hard-pressed for time while the Frenzy Beasts constantly attacked her.
Dalna doppler dragged herself through the empty path, soon reaching the green circle as she felt strength return to her. She relaxed, sighing in relief as her feet and right hand began to regenerate.
She looked at Jyorta, making eye contact for a moment before both started to laugh, "That was a close call!"
Their respective teams arrived soon after, carrying the injured Ashten. The moment Ashten entered the green circle, he made a victory pose as his injuries healed while he was slowly regaining his lost weight. The reappearance of his muscle mass caused him to sigh in relief, "As expected of the military academy to throw us into such danger."
"If they had also removed the little bits of muscular energy in us, all of us would have failed at the very start itself," Jyorta spoke from his awkward pose. His hands and legs were still healing as he could feel the psychic energy attach his bones to their respective positions. It would take him some more time to get up.
All the students that were following them managed to enter the green circle. Though, the moment they were healed, a formless force sent them outside the green circle. The least injured ones were sent out within a couple of seconds.
Jyorta saw the spindles fall out of his body, followed by the Essence of Frenzy and the foreign aura his body had soaked up. Finally, he was fully healed; his aura and psychic energy reserves were now at maximum capacity.

Ursus Ex Machina
Ozzy was a man of the wild. Raised in a remote village atop the world's mightiest mountain, he'd been taught to respect and revere the natural world. The realm he was born into had been there long before him, and it would remain there long after him. Sure, there was the occasional madman who threatened to destroy it, but such boasts were always empty. No one individual was actually capable of demolishing this beautiful blue-and-green ball Ozzy called home. No matter what terrible magics these villains wielded, they were incapable of causing permanent harm to the environment. Even if the planet was completely devastated, it would recover. Life would find a way to flourish, same as it always had. That was what Ozzy believed from the bottom of his heart, so he never once felt the need to save the world he loved. After all, it was never truly in danger. The world would be fine no matter what. The people were a wee bit endangered, but that was another story altogether. However, what would happen if Ozzy suddenly found himself devoid of his beloved wilds? What would the man do if the realm he knew - one of wonder, magic, and chaos - was replaced with a man-made environment of concrete, industry, and steam? Ozzy could never imagine such a thing happening, and yet that was his new reality. After losing a fateful confrontation with a mad wizard, he and his friends found themselves transported to a strange world so thoroughly alien that every waking moment feels like a fever dream. Separated and scattered to the four corners of this land, each of these adventurers will need to adapt, survive, and overcome if they hope to reunite. They would also need to do so quickly. The sooner they are able to find one another, the sooner they can figure out a way back home and have another crack at putting an end to the villain's plans. Whether such a thing was actually possible in a world with barely any magic in it was a valid concern, but Ozzy had more immediate things to worry about. For instance, why did the air smell like a perpetual forest fire? How did ships sail through the sky as if it were water? And most importantly, was the pavement he was hurtling towards at high speed much softer than it looked? Probably not, but a man could hope.
