The day after meeting Aris.
Lennok took care of the errands one by one.
Originally, after being contacted by Aris, the plans were postponed.
I was prepared to give her a fair amount of explanation about this incident, and it was an empty schedule, but people’s work doesn’t always go as planned.
“… … .”
Alice’s decision was a little surprised, but Lennok didn’t worry too much.
Aris Richelen, whom Lennok had seen so far, was a man well aware of the weight of his duties and responsibilities.
If such a person would give up his professorship for a while and return to the Mage Tower, it must have been for a reason.
Lennok could have waited if it had only been postponed without ending. Aris had been waiting for his answer for a much longer time.
“The production of potions is over, strengthening the alchemy lab, reviewing the business plan, and approving the share transfer… … . Darby, what else is there?”
[Review of the laboratory relocation plan, replenishment of consumed medicinal materials, and production of spares at the beginning of the year. Equipment maintenance is left.]
Darby, who is lying around in the toad house, can play the role of a scheduler even if Lennok doesn’t have to give a separate order.
Lennok, who was sitting on the workbench, leaned back and thought.
“Considering the schedule, it would be impossible to move right away, and I already ordered the medicine. It’s the beginning of the year, even if it’s possible anywhere… … .”
[Where are you going?]
“A rechargeable shotgun that was modified by Palmer. You should get it soon.”
As he became proficient in handling alchemy, it was no longer difficult to make tobacco by combining medicinal materials.
It is still difficult to say that we have found a prototype that is perfect for Lennok, but we have succeeded in reproducing an effect similar to that of products on the market.
There wasn’t much left to do.
I go straight to Palmer’s workshop and watch the shotgun he’s tinkering with.
While grunting, he faithfully assembled and completed the parts of the shotgun that Lennok had carved himself.
“Where the hell did you get these ingredients from?”
Woooo!!
The rechargeable shotgun placed on the workbench exudes a different level of weight than before.
“It’s surprisingly hard for something that isn’t metal, but insanely heavy. You’re not crazy enough to use materials like this as parts for a shotgun.”
“Isn’t that something that can’t be helped?”
Palmer’s expression turned strange as Lennok smiled and raised the shotgun with one hand.
“The only way to increase power without going through a complicated process is to increase the durability of the gun itself.”
“Hmph, the power of that shotgun has already been completed. How do you mean to increase the firepower there?”
“It is not difficult. The change in the nature of the magical power is applied three times separately to cause a backlash.”
Clap!!
He lifts a rechargeable shotgun lifted with a lightweight magic and blows magic into it.
Wheein!!
Inside the shotgun’s barrel, three different magical powers began to rotate simultaneously.
“It’s difficult and inefficient to perfectly control the direction, but if it’s just driving it in the direction the muzzle is pointing… … .”
Koo Goo Goo!!
At that moment, the air inside the workshop is swirling around Lennok’s shotgun and begins to rotate.
Some unknown equipment hanging on the wall fell to the ground, and the window frames swayed and fluttered as if they were about to break.
Palmer nodded with a contemplative face.
“Ah, got it. Okay, so stop it, you crazy bastard!!”
“As long as the barrel and cylinder are strong enough to withstand the impact, it is possible.”
As Lennok said that, dispelling the mana in an instant, Palmer shook his head and sat down in his chair.
“If you want that kind of power, why don’t you just carry a cannon?”
“It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, but the constant need to work on it is the same. In that respect, I quite like this shotgun.”
Lennok smiled as he put the shotgun in his sleeve using a shrinking spell.
“The efficiency of the rechargeable battery itself is quite good, and there are many possibilities to use it depending on the user’s capabilities. It deserves to be called a special order from Machine City.”
“… … okay. go because it’s okay I will estimate the bill and send it to you.”
Palmer gestured with a weary face.
After that, Lennok bought some equipment from Palmer’s workshop, such as a wire, a wrist-storable dagger, and a camping kit, and left.
According to Lapis’ summoning order, the place we must head from now on is the northern continental snowfield.
Probably because it was clearly an area with a high possibility of homelessness.
“What’s left to do now… … Right.”
Before making his last stop, Lennok simply bought a bunch of fresh vegetables from a nearby grocery store.
“Did Eveline like celery? I think I often ate carrots or cucumbers.”
If you go to the North Continent, there’s a high chance you’ll meet Ibelin.
It’s unlikely that she’s consuming her favorite fresh veggies, as she headed there almost a month earlier.
It wasn’t difficult to bring a present for Evelyn as much as she brought her luggage anyway.
Lennok thought so, bought vegetables that were easy to cut and easy to store, and then simply cut them up and put them in a container.
[I always think about it, but that agent has very strange eating habits.]
“… … .”
[To maintain nutritional balance, you must balance meat and vegetarian diets.]
“That’s right. It’s not what you say.”
Lennok sighed as he looked down at Darby, who had been stealing electricity from the toad house and was now eating Lennok’s cell phone battery.
The time that Lapis gave as a convocation order was tomorrow. It’s a situation where time is running out.
Lennok looked down at his pack, checked his watch, and stood up.
Before heading to the North Continent, there was a last stop to stop by.
* * *
beep-beep-
A large hospital located in the 20th district.
Among them, the VIP room located on the top floor.
The figure of a bird-headed giant lying on a spacious bed in a single room was reflected through the window.
The body of Felix Magath, whose eyes are closed, is so disorganized that it is difficult to find a healthy place.
Even though the whole body was covered with bandages, the wound was so grievous that blood flowed out.
The beak, which had been stretched out straight, was cracked and shattered, exposing bright red flesh.
Next to Lennok, who stood silently outside the window, Dylan spoke calmly.
“They said it would take about a month to be conscious.”
“… … .”
“I heard the story. Didn’t the crocodile old man make our head of department like this?”
Dylan chewed his lips over the wrestler mask.
“Damn it, I should have followed Mila with me too.”
“Chief Felix’s judgment is not wrong.”
At that moment, a woman who walked into the hospital room answered Dylan’s words.
Short hair with a cold impression. She was a beautiful woman with a well-groomed appearance, but her expression was hard, giving off a cold impression.
“Since you two have been called here and there by the command of the leader recently, it was necessary to take all our strength in case of an emergency.”
“Vice-captain… … .”
“Or is it that he doesn’t trust my judgment in approving his decision?”
“haha… … .”
Dylan, who was breaking out in a cold sweat at the sharp gaze of the woman called vice-captain, slipped away.
“Come to think of it, I forgot to give Uncle Felix a present for his hospital visit. this could be a bit of a problem I’ll go out for a while.”
“what?”
Lennok had no time to say anything.
Ignoring Dylan, who disappeared from the hospital room in an instant, the vice-captain immediately turned his attention to Lennok.
“fastness. Right?”
“… … .”
Without waiting for Lennok’s answer, she held out her hand first.
“Stella Grien. I’m the deputy director of the Antares office. I am running the office in place of the absent leader.”
“Half. It’s freelance.”
“Thank you for not forgetting and finding our member. I never thought you would visit me in the hospital, but you were a much more compassionate person than I thought.”
“… … Originally, rumors are unbelievable.”
Saying that, Lennok slightly turned his head toward Felix.
Visiting him in the hospital itself was scheduled, but I didn’t expect that he would still be unconscious.
The battle with the Croken was intense, but considering that there were no serious injuries during the battle, I thought my condition would have improved by now… … .
Considering that Hina, who was severely injured at the agent’s headquarters before coming here, has recovered to the point where she can walk around, the situation is unnatural.
Anything you can think of… …
“Croken Asylus.”
Stella looked up at Lennok’s back and said.
“Did you come to hear about that inspiration?”
“… … .”
“Shall we sit down and talk?”
Stella said that and sat cross-legged on the sofa placed against the wall of the hospital room.
She took a cigarette from her arms and casually put it in her mouth.
The moment Lennok faintly frowned, Stella spoke as if making excuses.
“It’s an e-cigarette. It’s something that only emits steam.”
Come to think of it, it’s not even something that burns with fire in the first place. The appearance looked close to electronic devices.
“I didn’t say anything.”
“… … .”
asked Lennok, who sat across from Stella, who kept his mouth shut.
“The battle hammer that Felix was carrying. Is that injury now due to the magical power contained within that hammer?”
“… … what?”
“Kroken Asilus saw that magical power and said it belonged to ‘coming’. And the name ‘Dorae’… … .”
Since returning to the city, I have invested time in my own way to learn about the name.
It was clear knowledge that if Croken was interested in getting his hands on it, then Lennok was definitely worth knowing about as well.
As a result, the fact that I found out was that there was a person who used that nickname more than 200 years ago.
And the fact that the man failed to ascend to heaven and returned to ashes and dust.
The ‘arrival’ mentioned by Felix and Croken was the nickname of a now-dead 9th level ascendant.
“If it’s a reaction to using the afterlife mana of an existence like that as a weapon, it’s understandable that Felix is still suffering from the aftereffects. The fact that Croken, who was not obsessed with any weapon, got that hammer.”
Stella muttered, looking at Lennok with a slightly surprised expression.
“It seems that his mouth has become much lighter since he hasn’t seen it. Felix might not know, but I bet you would know that too.”
“… … .”
“Before I settled in this city, I traveled.”
Stella said, puffing out smoke.
“There were people who wanted to see all the mysteries of this world with their own two eyes and confirm the ending that was to come.”
“… … .”
“A lot happened during the long trip. And everyone has changed.”
Silence passed.
“As Arsnova, which seemed to be forever, collapsed, those who intuited that the end was imminent began to move. I saw and heard many things, but I couldn’t help the divergence in the answers I gave.”
“And the answer from you who moved along Antares is this mercenary office.”
You can tell without even saying it.
The mana emanating from Stella’s whole body as she sat with her legs crossed in a neat posture and smoked an e-cigarette was more powerful than any other words.
A 7th level Aspect Ability who completed the 7 hierarchies and became the incarnation of change himself.
It is impossible to guess how long the momentum that submerged deeply like the waves of the deep sea that could not sink calmly would have endured and polished for a long time.
But at the end of the slow-flowing waves, as if time had stopped, faintly twisted traces of mutation emerged.
Are you already giving your own answer on how to go one step further?
The vice-captain of the Antares office was a man with a force comparable to that of the cartel’s bosses.
The power of the office holding Antares, Stella, and Felix could hardly be compared to that of the Three Heads.
However, if there is a reason they have been holding their breath and existing as a mercenary group instead of moving in the dark… … .
“The post-mortem magic of arrival is one of the ancient artifacts obtained during such a trip. Arms made from the remains of a famous berserker hundreds of years ago… … It has power that even a level 7 Aspect Abilityer can covet, but the aftereffects are also strong.”
She murmured as she glanced over the glass window.
Her gaze at the unconscious Felix was full of unconcealable concern.
“Such an item was stolen by the Croken Asilus… … .”
“Of course, the captain and I opposed the use of the artifact. Felix’s taking the hammer as his own was a way of escaping the inevitable.”
Stella’s eyes shone sharply.
“Didn’t you come to us like this because you felt that you, too, owed a debt to that fact?”
“You feel remorse.”
“… … .”
Stabbed to the point, Stella kept her mouth shut.
“You don’t have to show those feelings to me. I didn’t come all the way here to rebuke you. If physical aftereffects are a problem, I tend to think that Felix’s choice should be respected.”
“then… … .”
“But we should hear what Antares wants and wants and is still waiting for the right time.”
Lennok’s and Stella’s gaze collided simultaneously in the air.
“I only met him face-to-face once. It was before I even completed the hierarchy.”
“… … .”
“With that much power, what are you still waiting for? Where are you going and what are you going to do after leaving the mercenary group you created?”
said Lennok, who touched the left sleeve of his coat.
“You asked me what answer you wanted on the day the sky opened. Now I have to ask him.”
“… … That’s a request I can’t grant.”
Stella shrugged.
“You know what kind of person Antares is. I only get to see her face a few times a year. What do you want from a person wandering somewhere on the continent on a fictional day?”
“… … .”
Seeing Lennok’s mouth shut, she nodded.
“Since you told me you wanted to make an appointment, I’ll tell you the story separately when the leader comes. Antares likes you too, so I’ll be in touch soon.”
“no.”
Lennox shook his head despite Stella’s reply.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have much time either. We need to talk now.”
“So, the leader is now… … .”
The last destination before responding to the call-up order. I didn’t come here just to visit Felix.
If it weren’t for today, this opportunity would not come easily to Lennok or to him.
8th level supreme ability. The leader of a mercenary corps in the shadows of the city. He remembers many things and waits for the right time.
Lennok had intended to meet Antares alone once again and confirm his true intentions.
“Should I tell you with my own mouth that Antares is here now?”
