Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 325

I knew.

That Aris participated in the fortress assault operation was not simply because she was concerned about the safety of the citizens.

Also, where the faint doubt that existed inside her was headed.

In order to keep that doubt from turning into certainty, I should have acted much more thoroughly than now.

You should have tried to hide your spell, change your tone of voice, and distance yourself from her.

But even though Lennok knew that, the reason he didn’t do it was because he felt pressured to succeed in the capture operation right away-.

It may have been because he had a complacent belief that Aris would forgive him even if he noticed all of this.

The belief that even if you stare at Lennok with a cold face, he will sigh and tell you that it can’t be helped after hearing all the inside stories.

With such complacent thoughts in his heart, it was only now that Lennok was able to confirm his thoughts.

The selfish desire that she would remain ignorant of all these secrets.

“… … .”

Every time I face the moment when I have to face someone’s heart, it reminds me of the fact that I forgot.

The bridle of shadows hidden by Lennok’s transcendent talent, the lifespan that even he himself could not fathom.

The most lethal and dangerous characteristic of [Jaeinbakmyeong].

How much time is left?

Is it really right to drag someone into this endless cliff-running journey?

If it’s Aris, he’ll hurt with you. I will grieve with you

Because I know that well, I don’t want to see such a reaction even more.

They say pain is halved when shared.

Lennok didn’t believe the obvious.

If I had to cling to hope without a promise, I’d rather… … .

“Haaa… … .”

in the awkward silence.

Aris, who was staring up at the frozen Darby with her front paws raised, let out a deep sigh.

She closed her eyes for a moment and pondered, then glanced at Hina, who was standing right next to her.

He shook his head neatly.

“I guess I was mistaken.”

“Yes… … did you?”

Aris nodded her head coolly at Lennok’s words.

“yes. The spirits I know aren’t that big, and they don’t wear strange masks.”

“… … .”

“Besides, I don’t have a cute personality enough to make such a cute cry.”

[…] … .]

Only then did Darby realize what he had done and quietly lower his front paw.

Could it be Lennok’s misunderstanding that the tip of his three wagging tails turned slightly red?

Aris, who quickly summarized the situation with just three words, closed her eyes again and leaned against the rock.

“You made me worry about something. I will focus on recovering my magic, so please wait a little longer.”

“Then I’ll look around and come back. The deputy director seems to be around here too.”

“… … I’ll look around the fort and come back. There might be something useful left.”

Anyway, the desert area in this area has no difference in height, so the surrounding scenery is clearly visible.

I’ve dealt with all my enemies, so no one will be in danger, and if that happens, I’ll know right away.

Lennok responded and quickly took Darby to the nearby fortress he had destroyed.

Although he waited for a suitable excuse to get out of the situation, it was not a complete lie.

Because I ran into Aris and Hina right after defeating Treffen, I couldn’t harvest the loot properly.

[I feel like I was completely fooled by the professor.]

The cyber spirit with his master on his back muttered in a low voice.

[I will not easily forget this disgrace… … .]

“Forgetting means forgetting.”

Darby asked Lennok as they strolled through the rubble of the collapsed mobile fort.

[Do you know, or do you want to know? The attitude is so ambiguous that I don’t know.]

“Aris is not stupid. Rather, he is a much more shrewd man than the others.”

In a way, it was only natural that Aris did not dig into Darby’s identity from the spot until the end.

No matter what her intentions were, her agent, Hina, was also with her.

Regardless of whether Hina Oneil could be trusted, she must have decided that revealing the relationship between Ban and Lennok was extremely dangerous.

“Perhaps, you may think that you have already gained the confidence you were aiming for this time… … .”

[I admit that there were more gaps than usual.]

“Whose side are you on?”

[Sigh, I don’t know. I will never do that again.]

Lennok smiled wryly and shook his head, patting Darby’s head as he pretended to be sullen.

Darby pretended not to know and silently accepted Lennok’s hand.

As he rummages through the ruins of the fortress to find useful items, the spirit’s mana disappears and his body gradually shrinks.

Even though it returned to its foxy form, it still had three tails.

Lennok, who casually put Darby in the inside pocket of his coat, rummaged among the rubble, found something, and stretched out his magician.

Kwajik!!

“found. I thought you would still be there.”

[This… … Is it a fragment of the fort’s calculation core?]

“It was an item that Gearside personally modified to make Trepen level 8. There will be room for more digging.”

Lennok, who had shredded the fragments of the arithmetic center shrunk to the size of a fist in his bosom, immediately walked away.

“This operation yielded more than expected. I will be a bit busier in the future.”

Unintentionally, Lennok learned a lot from witnessing Treffen’s unstable 8th level Apocalypse Manifestation firsthand.

Clues and ways to jump the hierarchy are also clues, but the most direct approach was the space jump he used inside the microcosm.

As a result, Lennok sensed the method of interfering with space several times during the battle, and found room to apply it to his space magic as well.

[I have secured the data, but it is a question of how well it will be used in practice.]

“It’s enough just to reduce the magic efficiency a little more. The consumption of mana is so extreme that it is almost impossible to use right now… … .”

Lennok thought about that and returned to the rock where Aris was resting.

As if Hina had already looked around, she was sitting next to Aris and quietly catching her breath.

Lennok, without bothering to disturb them, sat at a distance and took out a cigarette.

profit!

Just as he was about to light the fire and collect the smoke, Hina appeared next to him and snatched the tobacco away.

widely!

Lennok looked up at Hina with an absurd expression.

“What are you doing?”

“What are you doing?”

Hina said with a smile.

“Isn’t that something that someone ejected hundreds of meters from a fighter plane should ask first?”

“… … .”

“I think you have something to tell me.”

Lennok, who belatedly noticed a vein standing on her forehead, quietly kept his mouth shut.

There was a saying that I had in my heart, but it seemed that I hadn’t been able to say it because I was aware of the situation.

Lennok, who slightly averted his gaze, answered.

“There must have been a parachute in the ejected seat. He would not have died.”

“Are you saying that now?”

“… … I admit it was a bit rough.”

Hina, who had been glancing at Lennok, let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

“That’s Okay. Anyway, thanks to the hard work of the two wizards, I’m going to say that I had a good experience.”

“A good experience?”

“yes. The one Aris-sama developed at the end of the battle.”

Tup!

Aris, who had been listening to the conversation between the two with a weak face, quickly raised her hand and covered Hina’s mouth.

Aris whispered to Hina with a smile on her face.

“We should have decided to keep that a secret, right?”

“ah… … sorry. I stop… … .”

Hina kept her mouth shut with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“Because I don’t want to reveal it to others yet.”

Aris, who slightly averted her gaze, replied with a calm expression.

“There are people I need to show you first, so to be honest, even now it’s a little too much.”

“… … Let’s take it to the grave.”

Reading the subtle gap in the conversation, Lennok faintly frowned.

The two of them also seemed to have done some work in the process of destroying the fortress.

Well, if it weren’t for that, there’s no way Aris would have walked out with Hina supporting her with such a tired expression.

Maybe it was because they shared a secret, but Lennok stood up slowly as he saw the two of them becoming much closer than when they started the operation earlier.

“I’ll have to contact the main unit.”

I can roughly guess what kind of magic Aris used.

And that it is polite among wizards not to ask about it right now.

Lennok understood it roughly, so he changed the topic appropriately.

“The magnetic storm is getting worse. We need to figure out the situation before the communication network on the satellite city side is completely cut off.”

A desert area full of sand without any obstacles.

However, due to the magnetic storm that blows near the undeveloped district, communication between cities is completely cut off, and the satellite city of Delta, which is several kilometers away from here, cannot be seen properly.

As they had left the main force including Ilya and Felix in the vicinity of the city, they had to check the situation there and provide assistance if necessary.

The moment Lennok looked up at the self-torment, thinking about this and that.

“Ban.”

Hina suddenly called Lennok to stand.

Suddenly, her face hardened.

“I got a message from Senator Mayer.”

“… … A message?”

The moment when even communication is difficult due to the magnetic storm that has begun to intensify.

In the vicinity of the desert area, communication with megacities is completely cut off.

How can Congressman Mayer send a message at a time like this?

“It is an emergency contact network that is only allowed for top-ranking agents. Space transfer using the best artifact hidden in the basement vault of the headquarters. As an emergency guideline that can transfer an object approximately the size of a finger, it is a method that can be used once every two years.”

“You have something to tell us right now, even if you use those contacts.”

Aris continued with a hard face.

“Right before the operation started, the deputy director took over the authority and I kept the contact information… … .”

Saying that, Hina took out a thin chip from her bosom.

Lennok silently took the data chip and immediately plugged it into his phone.

A recorded voice message began to flow through the speaker.

[Ban, Palad. are you listening anyone is fine Please forward this message to all allies now.]

It was Mayer’s voice, full of urgency.

[The city government central council declared temporary martial law. The military, temporarily out of the ban, has marched out. It is an order to wipe out the National Guard and the hostile forces that caused the coup.]

The eyes of the three people who raised their heads crossed at the same time.

[Communication was cut off due to a magnetic storm, so I can’t contact the generals there. This is our only means of contacting you. Run away from there right now!!]

Silence followed after the voice message.

There was a tense air between the three of them.

“The military, what the hell do you mean?”

Aris pressed her temples and opened her mouth.

“You mean there is a military force completely different from the National Guard?”

“… … I guess I have no choice but to judge that for now. It looks like Senator Mayer was in a big hurry.”

Lennok replied and looked at Hina.

“Is there anything you can guess from what the congressman just said?”

Hina Oneil is one of the agents who occupied a special position within the agent and moved around various departments.

It is possible that he is aware of a secret reserved only for high-ranking officials.

However, Hina shook her head with a confused expression.

“The word itself that there is a project to replace the National Guard forces is circulating openly, but I have never witnessed the reality. However, in the words of the Director… … .”

“In words?”

“It was transferred to Area 13 and left the agent’s hands… … .”

“… … .”

It’s District 13, so wasn’t it just a deceptive tactic to divert attention there?

It seems that there was an inside story left unheard by Treffen and Gearside.

However, it was impossible to hear the circumstances from Trepen, who had now disappeared consciously.

Lennok raised his head and made a quick decision.

“It moves. We have to move to the vicinity of the satellite cities and tell others about this.”

“Ban is right. We need to move before the city council’s new army shows up… … Are you Aris?”

Instead of answering Hina’s words, Aris raised her eyes toward the clouded sky.

Almost at the same time, Lenok, who had widened his senses and realized the same thing as her, frowned in silence.

Shortly thereafter, something emerges through the clouds through the blurry magnetic storm.

Koo Goo Goo!!!

A flying object so huge that it is impossible to guess its true size from the ground.

The steel ship made in the shape of a pentagon pushed back the magnetic storm and moved forward leisurely.

Black spheres rotate ceaselessly between circular holes that are pierced here and there, raising that huge flying object into the sky.

A ship, no, should I call it an aerial fortress?

There is no need to ask what the project was going on in District 13, away from the agent’s hands.

It was only natural that a military force of that size would go through other departments, not through agents.

After clearing the ground power of the National Guard, the central council of the city government was building more air force power.

While Hina looked back at the two with a puzzled expression, Aris opened her mouth.

“I am really disillusioned with the attitude of the city council.”

“I don’t think you are wrong.”

Lennok muttered as he looked up at the sky.

“Because no one would have thought that they would kill the National Guard and make something like that.”

Woo woo woo woo… … !!

A strange vibrational sound spreads through the sky, and the ship gallops slowly over the heads of the three.

[Trepen… … That friend eventually left like this.]

An unfamiliar voice resounded beneath the ship leisurely flying in the sky.

[But on the other hand, I expected it. The only thing that can be entrusted to a man who can’t read the current is the role of captain of a crumbling ship.]

“… … .”

[At least he played the role very well. As the first opponent of our Balkan Air Force fleet.]

“Have you succeeded in building an airship that can withstand magnetic storms… … .”

It’s not that the city council lacked the technical skills and didn’t focus on bolstering its air force.

It is difficult to operate a ship of that size in an undeveloped area and near the outer front, where magnetic storms rage all the time.

This is because a small aircraft like a fighter can block the invasion of private iron by sealing the seams, but a ship cannot.

As a result, only army power, including mobile forts, was available on the outer front, but was the city government repeatedly preparing to obtain air force power?

Continued experimentation to build fleet strength in closed areas.

Every time the project was successful, the budget invested in the National Guard would be diverted to the Air Force, and key figures who noticed the smell would be called in and entrusted with the reorganization of the Air Force.

And the result of that, and the first actual battle was that huge pentagonal ship.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee girl

From across the sky, the roaring noise of the engine reverberates.

Dozens of fighter jets took off from all over the ship.

At the same time, the gun doors on the ship were opened, and all at once turned the muzzles and aimed at the middle of the desert.

Broken Mechanical Spheres and Fortress Unit 3.

And towards the position where the three people are standing.

[In that sense, you guys should keep your mouth shut here. In order for our major to go up in the minutes of the Central Council, we need a grand justification that the agent has failed]

“… … .”

[Three superhumans had already settled the matter before we even arrived… … . Isn’t it a story that doesn’t taste good even if you think about it?]

“It wasn’t that I couldn’t reach Mayer.”

Lennok muttered as he inspected every nook and cranny of the ship with his eyes narrowed.

“I had no intention of getting in touch with you from the beginning.”

[Please understand with an open mind. It’s not every day or two that idiots who roam the back alleys of the city die for unknown reasons.]

A voice that had resounded somewhere slowly subsided.

[Actually, you don’t have to understand.]

Keyiing… … !!

Hundreds of bullets protruding from all over the ship illuminating the magic light.

It wouldn’t matter if it covered a huge area like a satellite city, but if that bombardment was concentrated on this spot, the destructive power would be enormous.

The three of them quickly raised their mana and began to roll their heads individually.

“I will take the first bombardment.”

Lennok glanced at Aris as he signed the summoning seal.

“In the meantime, let’s find a way to get that ship out of the air.”

“You can’t let it get close to the satellite city.”

Hina answered quickly.

“Unlike a mobile fortress that moved on the ground, a ship floating in the air could be unilaterally bombarded and killed.”

“First, let’s move towards the fortress we destroyed. Build a barricade there and find a way to reach the ship-”

“Wait.”

Aris interrupted the two of them and pointed to a corner of the sky.

“That… … what is it?”

Woooooo!!!

Above the ship’s sky. A pure white light was shining through the empty spaces in the sky that no one cared about.

Running upside down toward the ground, it fell like a meteor, drawing a line of heavy light.

Something that had fallen from a high altitude hit the upper level of the ship directly.

Several circular shockwaves exploded over the fuselage of the huge ship, creating huge ripples.

Woooooooooooooo!!

The huge pentagonal ship, which had been heating up its muzzle, tilted sharply to one side, and the lights flickered like crazy.

[…] … !!!]

The raucous noise that blends in from inside the ship gives you an idea of ​​how flustered they are.

But such confusion is fleeting. The shockwaves that hit me once more overlapped and burst out, as if squeezing everything.

A meteor that fell vertically from the sky crushed the entire ship and rammed the huge aircraft to the ground.

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!]

With a desperate scream, the pentagonal ship crashes into the sand of the desert.

Koo Goo Goo Goo!!!!

A shaking of the earth’s axis occurred, and a huge wind of sand swept in all directions, turning the ground upside down.

Lennok and Aris almost simultaneously deploy their shields in all directions. Leaving only a minimum space, I received the aftermath intact.

The sand around the circular shield was pushed like a wave, creating a huge pit.

The ship, which boasted a majestic appearance a moment ago, was turned into a lump of junk in the blink of an eye.

Hina, who was standing behind the two of them, muttered with a dumbfounded face.

“What the hell is this… … ?”

“Things are taking a strange turn.”

Aris looked at the landing site where the ship fell and said.

In a messy landscape where you can’t see properly due to the sand wind that hasn’t gone away.

It’s hard to figure out what’s going on now.

“Just now, that magical power didn’t belong to any of our forces. It seems there was an outsider intervention targeting the Air Force ship… … half?”

Aris accepted the pencil that Lennok gave her and put on a bewildered expression.

Lenok said while throwing Enakpil’s five fingers into Hina’s arms.

“We must run away right now.”

His face, unlike before, was hardened.

“The ship is not the problem. Just that magic… … !!”

Woooooooooo!!

A huge shockwave erupts once more from the landing point where the ship landed, sweeping away the sand and dust in the vicinity.

The first thing that catches your eye is a huge pentagonal ship that has been horribly damaged.

As if it were a lie, what was floating majestically in the sky just a moment ago has been destroyed in half, revealing its interior intact.

Crew members groan and bleed inside the wrecked ship’s structure.

And at the heart of all that destruction.

A giant in the shape of a crocodile was crouching down.

Even though it is crouching, its size is as majestic as Mount Tai.

The scales, which were so hard that they glowed dark green, and the tail that stood upright like a rebar.

The elongated muzzle and the bright yellow eyes peeking out behind it are overwhelming enough to freeze the whole body.

The crocodile giant slowly lifted his head, and Lennok’s eyes met at the same time.

Only one person twisted the corner of his mouth.

“It’s been a while, kid.”

Even now, when I close my eyes, I remember it clearly.

The factory raid that I went out after accepting the second commission as a freelancer. The appearance of a monster that surpassed humans that we faced at the end.

Like the memory of the day when I felt the danger of my life for the first time.

Croken Asilus stood in front of Lennok’s eyes.
