Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 29

To-to-to-to-to-to

As soon as he saw a call from an unknown number, Lennok hung up without hesitation.

The number of times the cell phone rang is over dozens of times. They were all calls from Dyke.

Since Lennok didn’t respond at all to the reward offered by the other side, his body was heating up.

First of all, an amount more than double the previously promised success fee was deposited into his bank account, but he did not intend to be satisfied with just this much.

Since we couldn’t give trust in this way from the beginning of the operation, where is the guarantee that it won’t happen in the future?

It doesn’t pay off until Panoa gets a lot more than he promised.

Lennok was ready to give up collaborating with them without hesitation if he was just going to wash his mouth with this at Dyke.

In the end, it was Panoa who raised the white flag first.

[I got a call from Dyke. They asked me to come to the head office in a week. In the meantime, I’m trying to determine the Maginot Line that should be received from this side, but if you have time, come and see your face.]

I thought it would take some time to decide on an incentive for Lennok, but I never thought I’d ask for a grace period of a week.

Panoa was well aware of the fact that time was not an issue.

By now, she must have sensed that she had to give Lennok more than money.

Waiting a week or so wasn’t a big deal, if that’s for sure.

Thinking so, the moment he opened the bar, Lennok noticed that the atmosphere inside was very strange.

“……”

Jenny’s bar wasn’t always very noisy, but it wasn’t like back then when there was constant noise from drunk people.

In the middle of the bar in a bizarrely quiet bar, someone was sitting with their back to the door and quietly drinking.

sebastian

Next to him, Jenny watches him with an annoyed expression, and Jordan with an expressionless face.

But what you should pay more attention to than that is the attitude of the other customers in this bar.

Until this time, customers who had not cared about anyone visiting were subtly wary of that person sitting at the bar.

She is skinny and tall enough that her legs stick out from the side of the bar area.

Although he was wearing a suit, his limbs had quite a few wrinkles, and a strong smell of perfume wafted from nearby.

Noticing Lennok’s approach, the man slowly turned his head.

“Oh, I finally found you. I was waiting for you.”

“……”

A bleak yet blunt impression. The neck visible under the shirt is full of all sorts of unknown tattoos.

He was tall enough to make the glass he was holding look small because of how big his hands were, and grinned at Lennok.

“Do you know who I am?”

“no.”

“Right. But from now on, you should know.”

Whoop!

As soon as the man finished speaking, a strong force attacked Lennok.

A sharp sword fired with clear will in magic power.

It was so ferocious that an ordinary person would not be able to breathe at once, but it could not penetrate even Lennok’s shield and vanished after hovering in vain.

Looking down at Lennok, whose expression didn’t change, the man smiled intriguedly.

“He’s the one who suffered a lot from what you did this time.”

Tok, tok.

Lennok, who pushed his mana as if brushing off dust from his shoulder to let go of his momentum, responded.

“Is that the guy who used to work with Paul Ackerman?”

“It was a business that received investment from that friend.”

“You mean a trader who sells weapons.”

“……”

The man narrows his eyes and glares at Lennok.

Now there was only dead silence in the bar.

“So, are you here to retaliate for that?”

It’s faster than I thought, but it’s not that I didn’t think of this situation.

It was inevitable that there would be enemies the moment you touched the close profit relationship in the 40th District.

Up until now, he had been trying to avoid pointless conflict, but Lennok had given up on pretending to be clean alone in this filthy back alley.

Only by taking away the things they are holding can they rise higher.

A collision was unavoidable.

Did he read something from Lennok’s expression?

The man stared at his face silently, then shook his head slowly.

“……At least not today.”

He slowly rose from the bar, his head trying to touch the bar’s ceiling.

It’s a giant that can easily cross 2m. I felt it from the moment I sat down, but he was a really bizarrely elongated person.

“I just came to warn you.”

“……..”

“Little boy. We don’t look at our opponents as children. You can skip the first time or so, but if you try to get your hands on our business one more time, you’ll have to be prepared.”

Whoa!!

Once again, the mana centered on the man violently presses Lennok’s shoulders.

Maybe it’s a personality that can’t be solved without killing the opponent’s spirit.

Lennox had no intention of putting up with it.

Pew!!

Shock magic reduced to the size of a fist was shot directly into the man’s abdomen.

The one shot that broke Eriksen’s back in an undeveloped district at once.

However, the man, surprisingly, just shook his body, but soon recovered his complexion and looked down at him with a look of surprise.

Lennox met that gaze and responded calmly.

“Don’t get me wrong. I will tell you in advance.”

“….what?”

“If you try to solve the problem in such a messy way, the client here won’t stand still. You don’t think that Paul Ackerman is stupid enough to leave a dead body behind, right?”

The man’s eyebrows twitched at Lennok’s difficult words.

He must have guessed that there would be a back ship, but he never thought that Lennok would threaten him back like this.

Lennok stared up at the man calmly like Lennok.

Even now, the calculator was busy running in his head.

You’re ready to take the risk, but you don’t have to be stupid and bear the burden all by yourself.

If necessary, he was willing to divert attention from Lennok by appropriately selling Dyke’s name.

For a very short moment, he seemed to have realized the intention of his words, and it seemed like dirty murderous intentions were pouring out of his eyes, but he quickly calmed down his emotions.

He recognized that he was not in a position to act in this situation.

“….good. Let’s do something that has never happened before. Got it?”

At the same time, he did not forget to throw a glance at Jenny and threaten him.

“jenny. Neither do you. Know that the reason I don’t touch your bar is because of Kaise’s name. If you do something stupid like circling this guy…”

“Beck. Too many words.”

“……”

“Get out of my bar right now.”

The man called Beck did not respond to Jenny’s sharp reply.

He took one last glance at Lennok and left the bar.

Only after the elongated shadow completely disappears does the tense tension disappear.

“ha….”

Lennox let out a small sigh and sat down on the bar.

Jenny poured out a glass of whiskey and handed it to him without saying anything.

“So, who are you?”

“Cigar Bang’s executive. Beck Clinton.”

Jenny answered nonchalantly.

“It’s the most active gang in District 48 recently.”

“So it was like that.”

It was a gang that dealt directly with Paul Ackerman, and it was a gang that moved around Area 48.

Of course, since he died in the harbor of their district, it was only natural that the fever spread.

I never thought that Lennok would be waiting for him at the bar.

“The number of members is close to 1,000, and the scale of the business they are conducting is not easy, so it is an organization that belongs to the upper ranks among gangs in terms of financial power.”

“……”

“If you collide, you won’t be an easy opponent. I recommend cooperating with Dyke and getting the number right.”

A gang, a gang…

He has received various requests against corporations, mercenaries, criminal organizations and scavengers, but this is the first time he has dealt with a gang except for the time of Amnac Pharmaceutical Company.

Unlike the others who follow the rules to some extent and fit the order of the underworld, they are outlaws from birth and are pickled by the stimulation of violence.

How much pressure should I be prepared for?

What is the probability that the support coming from Dyke will be helpful?

Regardless of what Lennok was determined to do, it’s always better to assume the worst and deal with it when it comes to preparation.

Assuming that Panoa’s support does not reach him at all and he has to deal with Cigar Bang alone, he should start preparing little by little from now on so that he can reasonably deal with unexpected situations.

That was something that had to be done at least before Dyke’s second request began.

While Lennok, who had roughly organized his thoughts, picked up his whiskey glass, Jenny brought a laptop and turned the screen upside down.

“Wait a minute, look at this.”

“what?”

“About 5 of them, including the unnamed request targeting magicians and the nomination request targeting you, Ban. Check it out.”

I had no intention of accepting the job because I was still thinking of getting myself in shape…..

Lennok immediately grabbed the laptop and looked through the list of requests she had compiled.

Two from the corporate side. one in the office.

The first three quests are common, if common, quests that require the magician’s firepower in a common conflict on this floor.

The fourth request was from the scavenger side again, and it contained the content of finding a useful detective-type wizard who would volunteer to explore the underground waterway.

and last. Lennok, who somehow found the name familiar, hesitated and looked up at Jenny.

“……”

Sebastian.

The name of the broker who gave him the business card the other day was written there.

Considering that it was a nomination request with the exact name of the class, the person involved was probably certain.

“Do brokers operate in this way these days?”

“well. But if you look at the amount you’re putting out, you probably don’t just want to run a business.”

In order to recruit Lennok, Sebastian’s advance payment is a whopping 22 million cells.

At this level, it was hard to believe that it was simply to get Lennok’s attention.

“Perhaps he is looking for you because he has something he really wants to entrust to you. Don’t you think it will help you this time?”

“hmm…..”

Lennok rested his chin in thought, but on the other hand, he couldn’t help but be curious about the appearance of a client he hadn’t thought of at all.

According to what I heard from Jenny in the past, most of the clients he deals with are rich individuals rather than organizations.

And, among such customers, there will undoubtedly be quite a few people who are well versed in the physiology of the company.

If Sebastian could eavesdrop on the inside affairs of those companies, especially Dyke…

Could be a bad deal.

“Are you okay?”

“Because I don’t care. If you were going to work with him, Van, you would have gone to him long ago. and….”

“and?”

“My name is already listed as your broker on the deep web.”

Seeing Jenny’s mischievous grin, Lennok inadvertently laughed as well.

It’s been a while since I’ve just sent away such a bloody customer, but I’m a pretty nervous person to be able to play with words like this.

And Lennok felt that her personality wasn’t too bad.

“good. Then come back.”

“If you put in an acceptance request, I will contact you. Do you know how much Sebastian bothered me the last time I was summoned?”

Could it be that he had already put in work on both sides of the material mind without knowing it?

Instead of replying, Lennok gave a smile and left the bar.
