Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 34



Only Krnovel

The time Dyke had promised passed.

Lennok immediately got dressed and headed for Dyke’s headquarters.

This time, there was no sedan to meet him and no guidance from Kylian, but the situation was completely different from when I first met them.

Contrary to the ambitious plan to change the game of the 40th division, the fact that their operational ability was terrible was revealed, and in the aftermath of office politics, it was learned that there was an absurd shortage of manpower.

It makes no sense to not take the initiative in this process.

The minimum compensation that was decided with Jenny in advance. If it doesn’t meet that line, there is no further collaboration with Dyke.

With that thought in mind, Lennok immediately knocked on the door of Panoa’s office.

“You are here. Please have a seat.”

An office with the same scenery as before.

However, Lennok did not miss the fact that the screen of the small screen placed in the corner of the office was obscured by an exquisite square.

Lenok, who was sitting on the sofa in the office without saying a word, poured a cup of coffee and put it down, and she calmly sat across from him.

“……”

I was slowly choosing what to say.

Panoa, too, was well aware of the fact that everything would go wrong if he couldn’t catch Lennok now.

The first thing to do was set.

“sorry.”

Slowly, she lowers her head.

“At most, I spread my absurd plan to the class mage, but it was delayed. It is all my negligence.”

“……”

“All the inconveniences that occurred during this operation were all the mistakes of the head office, and we will pay you the compensation according to the process. Of course, we promise to delegate the success compensation of other personnel who failed in the process.”

A neat apology without any excuses, and a calm yet unwavering tone.

It is enough to know what kind of mindset she came to this place after going through a bitter failure.

But that alone wasn’t enough to buy Lennok time.

At least if they’re going to stick with their original plan unwaveringly.

She lowered her gaze for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth.

“I think in a week or so you would have noticed what was going on inside our company.”

“……”

Lennok’s gaze changed slightly at the unexpected words.

I never thought he would bring out Dyke’s internal circumstances, which he thought was his most vulnerable weakness, from the beginning.

It seems that Panoa also had no intention of washing her mouth with just a few pennies.

“I honestly admit it here. Unlike the capital currently being put into this project, the number of high-quality human resources that can be mobilized within the head office is extremely limited. Even those who are helping me will not be able to remain at the company after this plan fails.”

“Tell me the main point.”

Panoa flinched at Lennok’s cold words and bit his lip.

In less than a month, the position of the two people who have been reversed will only feel savage.

However, instead of being buried in such trivial emotions, she has prepared much more rational judgment and persuasion.

“……I want to borrow the magician’s power no matter what. This is an expression of my will.”

With that, she pulled out a black security bag from the back of the sofa.

When I open the lock on the tightly locked lock and enter the password, the bag suddenly opens.

A pair of small rings that can be seen along with the thick scent of magical power emanating from within.

“This is the artifact, the ring of Pryice, that I presented to the shadow magician who was with me in the last operation with the goal of completely accomplishing the plan.”

“……”

“It’s an item that doesn’t reach the reward promised to the wizard, but it’s a valuable artifact because it’s equipped with an impact-resistant technique that can protect the wearer’s body.”

Panoa’s eyes were burning hot.

Even if you say it like that, this ring would also be a valuable item if you set it as the goal of complete achievement of the plan.

Just by looking at the magic inside, you could tell that it wasn’t a low-level item, but Lennok replied without changing his expression.

“You know what I want.”

The minimum terms that Jenny and Lennok agreed to.

It was the common idea of ​​the two that no matter how short it was, the time to receive the artifacts should be pulled up.

If Panoa resorts to wiping his mouth with a pair of artifacts, the deal is over.

As if she had noticed Lennok’s feelings, she quickly continued.

The main point was now.

“The bidding for the item you want has been completed at the VIP auction house, and it is currently in the preparation stage for delivery. It’s not the fifth request, but I promise to deliver the artifact to the wizard’s hands until the next request is over.”

Desperation emanates from every single word.

The way she presented Lennok with the certificate that she had purchased the item at the auction house clearly showed what kind of determination she had to come here to convince Lennok.

“……”

When Lennok doesn’t answer, her words become a little more urgent.

“In all future operations, we will establish a command system so that the anti-mage’s judgment can be prioritized, and we will also delegate the selection of team members to participate in the plan. If that’s not enough…!!”

It was after Lennok picked up a pair of rings that Panoa’s words, which were getting more and more violent, suddenly stopped.

Lennok watched the flow of magic flowing from the artifact for a while, then nodded and stood up.

“Wizard…?”

Considering the internal circumstances of the Dyke Company that Sebastian had told you about, the reward she just mentioned was the upper limit on the stakes that could be placed on Lennok.

Even the purchase certificate was confirmed, so there was no need to listen to useless words.

“Everything I just said, make it into documents and send it to Jenny. We’ll talk about the detailed schedule later.”

Realizing the meaning of those words, Panoa’s face straightened slightly, and Lennok looked back and stiffened at the same time.

Lennok looked down at Panoa with a cold gaze and said.

“We’ll move on to this one, but we won’t make this mistake again. You’re not the only one taking risks.”

“……..”

“I have proven my abilities and I think I deserve the treatment I deserve.”

“…I know.”

“What we are doing now is because our interests are aligned to some extent, not because we are giving and receiving unilateral help, right?”

Lennok grabbed the office doorknob and murmured.

“You’ll have to strike a good balance. There are many things that cannot be solved with money alone.”

It’s ironic.

The words Lennok threw at Panoa were, above all else, suitable for Lennok himself.

But in this place, even such a delusion was nothing more than a luxury.

Percussion!

“…….”

Left alone in the desolate office, Panoa hung her head in silence.

Her face was full of unknown fatigue.

As if looking through the door, Lennok confirmed the figure, turned his back without saying a word, and immediately left the building.

proposal

‘It’s made clear with this.’

Lennok thought as he walked out of the street after being politely sent off by the Dyke staff.

‘Bold, but too inexperienced.’

At first glance, Panoa seems to be a person who is rational and knows how to make bold decisions, but compared to Jenny, who really handles things that way, it is completely different.

The decision itself to delegate the chain of command in this plan while giving him a rare artifact right away wasn’t bad, but he can’t easily shake off his lingering feelings about the bleeding that occurred in the process.

That’s probably why he couldn’t easily trust Lennok’s decision and, conversely, showed signs of trying to raise the stakes more.

This happened because Panoa didn’t trust the human named Lenok in the first place.

“…….”

can understand

It’s hard to feel at ease when entrusting important tasks to someone you’ve never seen before.

However, after exchanging money on this floor, there should be no arguing.

In that sense, Panoa was a talented person who did not suit this floor.

‘I’ll do as much as I’ve been given and step out. Considering the value of the artifact, it won’t be easy…’

Thinking so, Lennok glanced at the inside of his overcoat.

You don’t have to listen to it to know how much effort Panoa must have put in to get the ring from Pryice.

Artifact.

A treasure like gold to Lennok, who understands how difficult it can be to enchant objects.

Although Enakpil’s five fingers were not in his hands right away, it was still a tangible achievement to have the enchanted artifact in his hands.

Even if we couldn’t make great progress right away, it wasn’t common that we had the opportunity to see with our own eyes how the artifact was enchanted and how it worked.

‘It would be nice if I could get tangible results quickly…but I’ll have to be patient.’

For Lennok, who freely handles shield magic, the protection-type magic built into the ring is of great significance.

Unlike shield magic, which simply unilaterally alleviates external impact, protection-type unique magic was good at protecting users through various methods by sending them.

Of course, you need to properly analyze the effectiveness of the ring to know it, but it is probably magic that can shed shocks applied to the skeleton itself, including the internal organs, or block various harmful substances that cannot be solved with a simple shield.

It was clear that it was not bad for Lennok, who was extremely dependent on a single shield magic.

Wasn’t it all thanks to Lennok’s abnormal obsession with safety that the shield magic, which was seriously inflexible in terms of performance in the first place, had developed to this point?

In that sense, the protection magic built into the ring would be a great insurance for Lennok.

Slowly calming his excitement, Lennok took out his phone.

Lennok quickly dials the built-in contact number and disappears through the crowd in an instant.

I didn’t even know that someone’s complicated eyes looking at it from the top of the building had lost their way.
