Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 466



Only Krnovel

Where Promises Intersect (8)

Even Lennok, who has crossed countless lines of death, is not without tense moments.

A human who only holds on to reason with the mental power of a strong wizard, but Lennok also feels fear.

It is also impossible to shake off your inner weakness and negative emotions if you do not understand them properly.

But I couldn’t help but feel as nervous as the moment I headed to the bar.

That’s because the customer waiting for him at Jenny’s bar right now was someone that even Lennok couldn’t deal with.

Passing by District 49 where the evening sunset is setting, head to the bar.

Passing by the stairs that I am now familiar with, the dark scenery of a familiar bar.

Jenny, who was chatting about a single guest, recognized Lennok and wiggled her finger.

“Ban, it’s here.”

“… … .”

A bright blonde woman sitting across from Jenny and drinking.

As if he had gone on a long trip, he was wearing a neat coat and had a small bag at his feet.

It was the first time that even Lennok had seen him with his voluminous hair tied in a tight knot.

Looking at Lennok like that, Jenny shrugged.

“This is Professor Richellen. You know from working together during the National Guard mutiny, right? You don’t need to introduce yourself.”

Aris didn’t answer, so Lennok sighed and sat down slightly.

The image of two people sitting side by side at a bar, leaving one seat empty.

“… … ?”

Jenny also twitched her eyebrows as if she immediately recognized the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, but she didn’t say anything about it.

Instead, he stood in front of Lennok and tapped the shaker.

“What would you like to drink? Crevasse, Felder, Vanusha… … . They recently overhauled the warehouse, so there are a lot of new products coming in.”

“… … I’ll pretend I haven’t eaten in a while.”

“If the two of you have something to talk about, shall we talk about the main topic first?”

Jenny asked as she casually pulled out a few bottles from the back shelf and started making cocktails.

“You said there was someone you wanted to find. what’s the matter?”

“… … .”

Lennok inadvertently opened his mouth at those words, but when he thought of Aris sitting next to him, he shut his mouth.

Jenny also smiled with a slightly mistaken expression.

“I guess that’s not what we’re talking about here. If it’s urgent, right now… … ”

“no it’s okay.”

Originally, Lennok intended to request information about the blood and kinship of the family head who had managed the cracks in the fortress for generations.

If there is anyone in this city who recognizes and accepts the possibility of the open sea, the nobles of the citadel, who have grown up close to the rift since birth, have a chance.

But as Lennok put his thoughts together on the way to the bar, he realized that it didn’t make much sense.

What Lennok clearly recognized the existence of the open sea was not the crack of the fortress, but the well of the handbook.

The reason I found the crack today was because I thought that I might be able to draw the possibility of the open sea more clearly.

Though I thought I might not know, I tried to expand the territory in search of cracks, but I did not expect much that something would be reflected in the kaleidoscope unless I knew specifically about the possibility of the open sea.

Rather, not only did he get the result with one attempt, but the fact that the result was too different from Lennok’s expectations is disturbing his thoughts.

It is not a matter of finding other external factors.

A landscape of another possibility that was lost at the turning point of Lenok.

Why didn’t the self at the divergence point that extended to the possibility of the open sea not even exist?

In order to know that, in the end, Lennok had to dig deep into himself.

The conclusion was decided from the beginning.

“Find the best doctor in the shadows. can you do it?”

“… … .”

Leaving behind the silent Jenny and Aris, Lennok quietly continued.

“If possible, it would be nice to be in the field of examinations that can quantify body information. Considering these and other possibilities, blood and genes… … .”

“Wait a minute, Van… … Do you know what you are talking about?”

Jenny, who bowed her head low in front of Lennok, asked with a stiff face.

“You never asked me to find someone like that.”

“… … yes.”

Of course, it was because of the existence of the penalty, which was also closely related to Lennok’s secret, but he never told Jenny about it.

That moment when Lennok slightly tilted his head, thinking that there was no reason for her to be so serious.

Aris, who hadn’t said anything, quietly opened her mouth.

“Is it because of the Madrid Onion?”

“… … .”

Silence passed.

It was only then that Lennok, realizing what Jenny and Aris were thinking, frowned slightly.

‘It’s because of the alibi.’

While away for a long time for Pandaemonium’s operation, he gave up the excuse as an injury from the battle in Madrid.

Rumors that there was a great aftermath from the battle between Gyeonro and Madric Onion spread even outside the city.

That’s why the two of them thought that the reason Lennok was looking for a doctor was because of his injuries from the battle with Onion.

If Lennok, who had never looked for a doctor through countless battles, suddenly finds a doctor, what would be the reason?

If a wizard who had stopped meeting a medicine man and was prescribed medicine needed a checkup, the conceivable cause was fixed.

“… … I’ll explain later.”

How do you explain here that you need to examine yourself more accurately because of the landscape inside the realm?

That’s why Lenok moderately denied it and tried to postpone the explanation, but the dubious attitude seemed to convince the two of them.

After putting down the shaker, Jenny immediately turned to the office in the back of the bar.

“I’ll put a master-level anonymous trust in the deep web. In addition, if you contact your acquaintances and purchase additional information, you can come to a conclusion within 36 hours. Jordan?”

“… … Try contacting old classmates. Some of them are still active on the central front.”

Jordan, who had been quietly listening to the conversation with his arms crossed, quickly disappeared, leaving only the sound of Jenny tapping on the keyboard from the back of the room.

“… … .”

Incredibly quick work done. Skillful behavior as if half of the work was completed as soon as it started.

It showed how seriously Jenny and Jordan were taking this incident.

Lennox considered whether to just be honest and ask for forgiveness at this point, but ultimately gave up.

Wasn’t the reason why he was able to participate in the Pandemonium operation right away because Lennok had an excuse that he was recovering from an injury in the battle with Madrich Onion?

It’s been a long time since the name ‘fastness’ in the shadows of a large city has grown to the point where it can’t be covered unless it’s an alibi.

The risk was too high for Lennok himself to deny that fact now, when he could not confide all his identity and purpose to Jenny or Aris yet.

It is difficult to dissuade them from finding a doctor so diligently right away.

Eventually, Lennok knocked on his empty glass and turned his attention to the problem he had been putting off for a while.

He turned to the magician, Aris Richellen, who had been staring blankly at Lennok with his gaze turned this way before he knew it.

“This is the first time since the National Guard operation ended.”

“… … Yes.”

“If you have something to say, would you like to hear it here?”

“… … .”

Seeing her hesitation, Lennok shook his head.

“It doesn’t matter if we move, but… … .”

“No, it’s fine.”

Seeing Aris’ expression as if he had made up his mind, Lennok also made up his mind.

Why did she come to the class of Area 49, not Lennok, at this point?

It was because Lennok had a vague feeling that he knew too.

Aris Richellen is half-sure that Lennok and Van are the same person, but he has not personally confirmed the appearance and heard the truth.

That delicate line of demarcation between the identities of Lennok and Van.

To convey something that he could not confide directly to Lennok himself, even though he knew that Van was Lennok himself.

Wouldn’t it be nice to come to Jenny’s bar and find a class?

The night the two of them met and talked for the last time after the situation of the National Guard was over.

Quite a bit of time had passed, and there were too many things to put into words, but Lennok still didn’t forget.

However, if we were to meet again, I just never thought it would be like this.

I wanted to hear the reason, and Lennok was the same.

The sound of keyboards reverberating quietly in the empty bar.

“I made a mistake with my friend.”

Aris, who hesitated for a long time, opened her mouth while holding the glass with both hands.

“I was delighted that I had learned the secret, but then I was taken aback when I realized why. I believed there were problems to be solved, even if it meant reducing my time in this city.”

“… … .”

“It was arrogance. If it was something I could solve on my own, there wouldn’t be any reason to hide it and worry about it… … .”

The distinctive deep blue eyes that stare up at Lennok are still the same.

Lennok was unaware that thoughts and images that were stronger than before were overflowing in those pupils.

While spending time in the Mage Tower, Aris also did not forget to accumulate her own achievements.

“Did you come back to tell me that?”

“I heard the news. It was a story that he had various problems while I was gone. I was worried about that, so I tried to take a moment… … .”

Aris, who was looking at Lennok sadly, put down her glass and stood up.

“It was the only thing I could do.”

She took something from the inside of her trench coat and pushed it onto Lennok’s table.

The form of a small bookmark. However, the magical power flowing from it was on a completely different level from that of most artifacts.

It seems that the intricately twisted and entangled magical energy is turning into a clear idea inside the bookmark and materializing it.

It feels like the crystallization of an intense desire, as if the images were directly poured into it.

Lennok looked down at it for a moment and asked.

“This… … ?”

“It’s not like there wasn’t any income while looking for a way in the Magic Tower.”

Aris said quietly.

“I have already confirmed the direction. Even if it is difficult on your own, there may be room to find a way from a more fundamental point of view.”

“… … ”

Instead of answering, Lennok quietly closed his eyes.

Did he mean that the reason he went to the Magic Tower from the beginning was because he knew Lennok’s secret and why?

I knew he was a clever person, but I never thought he would have thought and acted that far with just a few words.

A meaning that can never be conveyed in words, a feeling that has not yet been properly determined.

They are still wandering between unspoken secrets and anguish.

Arisna Lenok is also just wandering around looking for her own way in the tangled and twisted flow of time.

Lennok quietly reached over and picked up the bookmark.

“I will definitely tell my friends.”

“… … thank you.”

Aris laughed hard.

* * *

After that, Aris exchanged brief greetings with Jenny and left immediately.

I thought it looked like it had just returned from a trip, but it seems that it came after finishing all preparations to return to the Mage Tower.

After receiving confirmation from Jenny that it would take a day or so, Lennok left the bar and started on his way home.

A situation where he couldn’t take a proper rest after the operation of Pandaemonium was over.

It would be nice to take a little break during the day.

I was lost in thought, leaving my eyes blankly to the waves of people passing by on the street.

‘Maybe it’s time for cross-validation… … .’

In the meantime, Lennok has been extremely reluctant to borrow the power of hospitals or healers, no matter how severely injured or damaged.

Compared to his immature growth and hierarchy, his talent and potential were absurdly huge.

He thought that anyone who looked into his body might find out Lennok’s secret.

For this reason, Lennok had thoroughly concealed and managed his personal information, including his identity, but now the situation was a bit different.

‘Still, if it’s the name of the class, the burden will be much less.’

The fact that he was a high-ranking magician with at least level 8 fastness was already a well-known fact in this city.

If there is a problem with the health checkup in the name of the class, it is unlikely that it will turn into a big fuss.

A lot has changed since I first set foot on this street.

Not only the strength and status of Lennok’s body, but also the presence of huge powers and various helpers.

I don’t believe they will stay as lukewarm helpers forever, but wouldn’t it be enough to solidify the status of the class?

[Shall we make reservations at the most famous medical facilities in the city?]

Darby, who confirmed Lennok’s intentions, asked while fidgeting in his arms, but Lennok shook his head.

“No, if possible, it would be better to wait for Jenny to contact you.”

[Anyway, it’s obvious that all the brokers deliver are unlicensed quacks.]

“It doesn’t matter if you are unlicensed, so someone with certain skills is the priority. Rather, saving people from the dark side is in terms of security… … Wait, what are you doing?”

Lennok let out a devastated laugh as he stared at the mobile phone screen moving freely in his hand.

“Did you try to make a reservation for the spirit clinic you went to last time? That veterinarian would freak out if there was a human sitting on the examination table.”

[That, in case you don’t know.]

“what?”

Darby glanced at Lennok and murmured.

[The Master might actually have a hidden tail… … .]

“… … .”

Why is Darby suddenly saying this? Lennok sighed deeply and shook his head.

“If you want to go to the clinic one more time, tell me anytime. But I have no intention of saving the investment, so don’t force yourself to hide it.”

[No, that’s not what I meant.]

“If it’s about additional ability manifestations, let’s do research after Aris returns. Speaking of which, there were rumors that there were geniuses among high-ranking spiritists who fused spirits and bodies in their own way.”

[…] … Don’t you want to listen to me?]

The moment Darby tried to snort while saying that.

Awesome… … !!

Right in front of Lennok, who put down the shake and stood up, someone tumbled down and slid all the way to the ground.

The moment when the person who slipped, leaving red bloodstains on the sidewalk, scrambled to get up and tried to run away.

Another elongated figure appeared right behind it and grabbed it and threw it to the ground.

bang!!

“Cheuk… … !!”

“Where are you going to run away? Did you think you could drink it and get away?”

At the voice of the young man who was coldly thinking, the person who was running away shouted.

“Mr. Mr. X… … I didn’t know!! Those bastards just forced me to eat it!!”

The appearance of In-young desperately trying to escape from the young man’s clutches.

Despite the obvious uproar in front of his eyes, Lennok calmly set down his empty glass and stood up.

Now it is neither a peninsula nor Victor’s face.

If you get involved in troublesome things as Lennok, it will be difficult to deal with later.

With that thought in mind, I immediately left and opened the database to gather information about medical institutions.

[Huh, Master?]

Darby, puzzled, pointed her paw at something struggling there.

[Is a terminal signal similar to the one the Master has from that person?]

“what?”

[Decryption code Rayan Aiter. It’s a blood mage’s terminal working at the broker’s bar.]

“… … .”

It was only then that Lennok’s eyes narrowed as he understood the meaning of Darby’s words.

A voice familiar to the boy’s figure. Looking at it now, the blood-stained face is also familiar to the eyes.

Even though it was almost certain that the terminal was Rayan’s, he still did not realize that the boy was Rayan.

It is nonsense to forget the life reaction once remembered with Lennok’s magical power perception and sensitivity.

What does it mean that Lennok didn’t notice Rayan Eiter’s reaction?

It was tantamount to saying that Rayan’s life reaction had changed into something completely different while he was blind.

Although he used blood magic, if Rayan, who was still human, had changed into something else, it would almost certainly be… … .

“… … Have you become a vampire?”

[Metabolism decreased by 80% compared to the most recently recorded data. The body temperature measured by a nearby sensor is 15.4 degrees. Blood flow rate increased by 413.33%. The amount of horsepower has decreased by 12%.]

Darby did not directly respond to Lennok’s words, but the data the spirit gave him pointed to the correct answer more clearly than any other answer.

“Interesting.”

I met Rayan because of a request from a long time ago and got him into freelance work, but I never thought he’d become a vampire before I saw him.

Lennok was more interested in the fact that Rayan had become a vampire than the fact that Rayan’s life was in danger.

At least these days, he was focusing on the theme of Lennok’s own body and blood.

Is it a coincidence that, at this point in time, I am reminded of a letter from Madame a long time ago?

If Rayan was really reborn as a completely different race, it wouldn’t hurt to hear the whole story at least once.

Lennox put his hand to his face and said to Darby.

“Contact Jenny separately and let her know the situation. Ask for any information you need.”

[There are 649 written materials on how to exterminate vampires. Shall we brief them now?]

“I do not need.”

The moment Lennok said that and took a step forward, the black coat wrapped around his shoulders fell all the way down.

The brilliance of thunderbolts that shuddered through the air so naturally as it rotated mana.

Pagging support… … !!

“Because if you beat it up, it will blow everything on its own.”

Indeed, that moment when Lennok grinned as he watched the electric light he had been lighting up from his fingertips for the first time in a long time.

Kirik, Kirik… … !!

Suddenly, in Lennok’s bosom, the black cube that had absorbed that mana intact, the pentarect, began to shake.
