Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 14
Only Krnovel
Two days after successfully resolving the incident at the Krimgal Mercenary Office.
Dray gave the blood from the man’s body to Lennox through Jenny.
Jenny, handing over the Styrofoam box, had a disgusted look on her face at the fishy smell of blood, but Lennok calmly accepted the box without being swayed by the clumsy acting.
It’s not even funny that a woman with enough wits to open a bar in the middle of District 49 is upset by the smell of blood.
I had to buy another small refrigerator to keep the blood separate, but it wasn’t a big expense.
You won’t be able to find out anything right now by analyzing the blood mixed with dark magic, but later, after you’ve matured more magically, you might be able to find out the principle of that strange doping ability.
“I heard that the consulting company that moved into that building has moved to another location.”
Lennok was quietly listening to Jenny’s story about the incident while drinking the drink that Jordan had handed him.
At some point, the two stopped charging Lennok for drinks. It was possible because the commissions he had brought over the years had easily exceeded 10 million cells.
“In a way, it was natural. No matter how much you want to save on rent and taxes, there are limits, and it’s not common for people to survive such a thing once.”
Tata Tang!!
Despite the faint sound of gunshots outside the bar, her expression doesn’t change, and her words aren’t convincing.
Since this happened not once or twice in District 49, all three of them quietly drank without even thinking about moving.
It’s a day with nothing special except for one guest who complained that the noise was annoying and left and came back covered in blood.
“Ban, how did you feel about working with the Krimgal office this time?”
Lennok responded lightly to Jenny’s question.
“There was nothing special. Compared to the experience of meeting Croken, it was unparalleled. I did deal with the scavenger executives… but it wasn’t that difficult.”
“Did I say he was a retired soldier? If he was an officer of Area 51, he would know that level as well.”
She giggled and murmured while biting the long long grass in her mouth.
“But not all scavengers are weak or lame. I’ll tell you in advance, there are quite a few guys who worked together a few times and got involved and hooked up while they were not paying attention.”
“You mean the key leaders are different?”
“There is a fairly wide disparity between executives as well as branch heads. You’d better be careful if you get involved with the scavenger branch leaders of the 20th division. There’s a good reason why you’re able to gather all the gutter-like garbage and create such a big organization.”
Lennok didn’t answer, but he tried to remember her words.
The scavengers she had experienced so far were nothing more or less than a gang of gangsters or robbers, but if she said that, it was reasonable to assume that they had more potential than they seemed.
She sighed at Lennok’s sullen expression as he puffed out smoke.
“You know this thing is pretty well known on this floor? It’s been a while since the scavengers were so determined and tried something, so everyone was interested.”
“so?”
“Suddenly, more and more customers are looking for the magician who has thunderbolts falling from the sky. It’s very exciting for freelancers like us.”
“hmm….”
that’s definitely a good thing Rather than spraying it on just anyone, a specific request would be better treated and the reward would be more generous.
“So I also suffered a little for our mage.”
After saying that, Jenny brought a file made of paper from the back of the bar and held it out to Lennok.
“I have collected only the requests received by nominating you for the past week. Take it, read it, and choose the one you like.”
“Is this enough for just a nomination request?”
The thickness of the paper that I could hold in my hand right away seemed to easily exceed a dozen sheets.
“That’s proof that there are many people thirsting for a skilled mage. To be honest, I’m also surprised. Among my clients, there are not many people who receive nomination requests like this.”
said Jenny, glaring at Lennok with greedy eyes.
“So let’s do well together in the future. I’ll take a small fee too.”
“Haha.”
Lennok laughed dryly but didn’t answer, and Jenny didn’t say anything more.
He stood up holding a file folder and nodded his head and said as if he remembered her.
“Oh, and those requests. They all have overlapping deadlines, so if you pick one, you’ll reject all other requests. You have to answer quickly so the clients can save others. You have to take care of that.”
“I get it.”
Lennok immediately returned home, threw the file and the box of blood in the corner of the room, and headed to the bathroom.
He vomits up all the alcohol he ate at Jenny’s bar. I have been trying this often since I realized that I could get rid of the side effects when I smoked this way in advance.
It can’t be helped that his stomach is upset, but from Lennok’s point of view, it was rather more damaging to lie down all day.
After flushing and washing the face, I stood in front of the kitchen.
The meat that has been thawed in advance is cut and grilled, and the vegetables are simply washed and stir-fried with the sauce bought from the mart.
Cheeik!
Take out the leftover rice from the rice cooker yesterday and serve it with a simple side dish to complete the meal.
The important thing is not to eat a lot, but to try to consume a variety of nutrients.
Slowly and consciously chew and digest the contents of the mouth and send it down into the stomach.
This goddamn weak body’s innate digestive power was terribly poor, so Lennok was always paying close attention whenever he ate something.
After eating, simply wash the dishes and stretch.
It was important to take care of myself before the bad habit of washing the dishes to eat was reversed.
After two weeks of ordering, Lennok, who had been diligently eating even the vitamins and supplements that arrived, finally took a breath and sat down with his back straightened in a corner of the living room.
The walls of the studio are full of torn notebooks and memos pasted by him, so there is not enough space to lean on, but there is no choice.
In the process of researching how to apply common magic, he wrote down the inspirations and methods he came up with and pasted them on the wall.
The common magic that Lennok uses is a magic that he has developed from beginning to end, relying only on his own memory and talent.
Unless he learned other unique magic, Lennok himself had no choice but to put in a little bit of effort in order to raise common magic to a higher level than it is now.
Fortunately, the magic talent he raised by adding all kinds of penalties was not in vain, so Lennok had been developing his own magic without stopping even once with very little thoughts and inspiration.
Beyond simply using the prescribed magic for its intended purpose, it creates new magic through the process of re-cutting and defining the magic consumption, range, power, and limits.
Adjusting the range of [Thunder Calling], which was used against the scavenger this time, was also part of such a study.
Lennok put the Styrofoam box of blood in the small refrigerator he had bought earlier. Since it was blood that had been touched by dark magic, it was only natural to take action with small-scale barrier magic.
He sat with his back erect in a corner of the room, and then he took up the file folder that Jenny had handed him to him and began flipping through the documents one by one.
There were also cases where a request came from a mercenary office like Krimgal, or an individual ordered a request for escort purposes.
There were unusual requests, such as requests for cooperation from the research institute, and there were many requests from companies like the last time.
Lennok, who was flipping through the papers, paused for a moment before bursting out laughing.
“Hehe… These guys are pretty crazy too.”
There was a request from the scavenger side to hire him.
To be precise, the scavenger branch manager of Area 38 seemed to have noticed his performance.
It was a request that blatantly revealed the nuance that he would not care even though he openly interfered with the operation of the same organization, and Lennok was surprised.
There’s no way Jenny didn’t know this, so she probably didn’t tell him on purpose.
I feel it when I work with her, but she was quite playful.
“Let’s see. First, subtract this, subtract this…”
All requests with too tight deadlines are filtered out. Requests coming from the mercenary office were put on hold for now.
All requests coming in under unknown personal names are also taken out.
What was neat was that there were many requests coming in under the name of the company.
Working with a gang isn’t too negative for Lennok, but reliability is an issue. He intended to hold off on working with dangerous organizations until he had the capacity to buy trust with force.
After sorting through this and that under strict conditions, in the end, there was only one request that Lennok liked.
First of all, among the requests gathered here, the deadline until acceptance is the longest, and the conditions are not too tight. The pay wasn’t too expensive, but there was a keyword that caught Lennok’s eye.
“It’s a pharmaceutical company…”
stranger
pharmaceutical company.
It is a word that strongly attracts Lennok’s interest in medicine.
As Lennok remembered, he immediately turned on his phone screen and connected to the Internet network.
At most, there is a site that he has been watching the news for a while.
Auction, the official online auction house operated by the city government.
It is said that counting the number of unsold items is faster. In this city’s largest network market, all kinds of rare treasures and relics of unknown origin are often uploaded.
Consumables such as elixirs that maintain the user’s energy and health were also coming up here from time to time.
Among them, what Lennok is eyeing right now is Stania Pharmaceutical Group’s first-class manufacturing elixir ‘Stemonia’, which is priced around 100 million cells.
It is said to achieve the most efficient energy enhancement in the human body by combining regeneration magic, qigongsul, and primitive magic in various ways.
Among elixirs, it is relatively close to industrial products, and its actual efficacy is focused on increasing physical strength and preventing energy from being scattered.
Today, Lennok was in no position to cover things up.
We should not stop at improving our standard of living by earning money, but we should strive for a better life than now.
It was also for this time that he saved up the money he had earned by saving money here and there.
“One request from now on… no, at least two.”
It is not enough to have only 100 million cells in order to be sure to bid on Stemonia in an auction.
This time, Lennok decided to spend a lot of his money to check one important fact.
Can this weak body be improved only by the effect of the elixir?
Unless this question is resolved, Lennok cannot move forward.
He needed hope.
Even if it wasn’t necessarily time-based magic, the hope that taking these elixirs could alleviate the full penalty on his body.
Unique spells, artifacts, and elixirs.
Among them, the most accessible to Lennox and the most likely to be obtained with capital are the elixirs.
Even if you don’t see a big effect right now, it’s very important to see if similar elixirs can have a positive effect on Lennok.
Even if it means spending some of the money I’ve been saving up until now.
Stifling the rising excitement, Lennok calmly turned the pages.
“Amnac Pharmaceutical Company…”
It was not a well-known dinosaur company like Stania, but more like a venture company founded in the 30th district, but it was important that it was manufacturing medicine anyway.
You won’t be able to get anything special by accepting a request once, but it’s good if you know something about the industry.
Even if it’s not necessarily a miracle drug, you might be able to get a hint to solve the problem of sleeping pills that are gradually losing their effectiveness.
“It’s a bit reluctant to switch to a drug that’s more effective…”
However, if you take a few more cheap sleeping pills than one dose, you may not be able to wake up again, so in the end, you have to endure like this for a while.
decided.
The customer of the next request will be Amnac Pharmaceuticals.
Resolutely determined, Lenok read the outline of the request, but only found a secret story of a pharmaceutical company related to the development of a new drug.
As it turns out, it seems that there was a conflict with the political circles in that district over the expected gains from the new drug development, but it was difficult to find out because the specific circumstances were not written.
After contacting Jenny, you can meet the client later. It was slowly becoming a good time.
Taking sleeping pills with a glass of water, Lennok turned off the lights and immediately lay down. He hasn’t been able to keep it lately because he’s been immersed in magic research, but Lennok is trying to keep a regular sleep time if possible.
I picked up my phone to pass the time until the cheap sleeping pill took effect.
There were often times when I looked at the display while lying down like this, and it still felt like nothing had changed.
Just like the time when I burrowed under the blanket without any worries and giggled while looking at my phone.
If there is anything that has changed, is it that I no longer look for sports or entertainment articles?
The scandals of athletes and singers he knew nothing about were no longer of any interest to him.
Lennok, who went online and looked at the news section, clicked the [Breaking News] section that appeared with a picture at the top.
[Vulcan visit confirmed by delegation from Philenom Dominion. The scheduled date is two months later… The response team will be convened to discuss the specific schedule]
[City government. I have always adhered to the position that there is no compromise, but will this opportunity change my attitude?]
[Contrary to the promises of the companies, the aronite production process is still not progressing.]
Self-government…. It sounds familiar, but it’s an awkward word. At least, isn’t it a difficult word to hear easily on Earth?
Details are hard to pin down, but judging from the tone of the news headlines, it looks like a big meeting is coming in the Balkans in two months.
Is this news big enough for Lennox to be concerned about? He wanted to think about it for a bit, but the drowsiness was only fleeting.
He put the phone down and fell asleep.
