Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 534

Giant of the sun (1)

Claude Azlan. A greeting from a man who calls himself innocent.

Lennok didn’t immediately recognize the name, but Jenny, who was listening to the conversation over her phone, seemed different.

[…] … !!]

Her response was that she couldn’t hide her agitation even through her phone and swallowed her breath.

That alone made Lennok understand what a dangerous monster the man standing in front of him was.

‘A face I don’t remember, the magical power I’ve met on the contrary. Not from the dark side.’

If Lennok, who has been active in the dark for a long time, is the first person he meets, he must be a monster living in the sun.

But it wasn’t just the way Gnoku introduced himself that Lennok recognized.

Unparalleled fighting spirit and magical power. It wasn’t long before I realized that that noble white glow existed in my memory.

‘The white pillar I witnessed in Bayrutz. Was this man the owner?’

Unlike the battle between Lennok and Ibelin, another fierce battle took place in the satellite city of Bayrutz.

The existence of the second extrinsic force presumed to have collided with Maya Lenslit.

This man, along with Evelyn, was one of the monsters who cooperated with the Aegis operation and lent their strength.

8th level supreme ability. Even at a glance, it is an unmanned person specialized in avant-garde.

I can’t even properly guess how strong and fighting ability it will be.

Lennok’s gaze calmly subsided.

He smiled lightly, as if he knew his innocence would be so.

“You are weighing your odds. I knew you would.”

“… … .”

“If you’ve dealt with Onion, you’ll be able to give an estimate against me too. Yeah, how about seeing it in person?”

The pure white eyes of her innocence shone brightly as she said that.

“If you fight with a life-or-death decision, how confident can you be in a match?”

“… … You’re also insane for wanting to hear that from me.”

Lennox smiled and looked away.

“I have no intention of answering that, if that is the only business. I will go.”

You don’t know the details of innocence, but there are things you can understand without having to talk to the other person for a long time.

The man standing in front of Lennok right now is a madman far removed from the common sense of common people.

A monster who wasn’t even crazy about anything else, but was consumed by the passion of battle and the pleasure of winning.

A warrior with overwhelming fighting spirit that would make Lennok sick of him, and his consistent words and actions that he couldn’t overcome.

What did it mean to go up to level 8 and transcend the hierarchy in such a state?

A being that breathes and lives, but has already been maddened by the ecstasy of struggle from head to marrow.

There is no benefit to be gained by hanging out with such an opponent. I guess I should say I’m glad I didn’t get swept away by the heat and get angry.

It is to the point where I don’t understand how he has been quietly tied to the sun while keeping the prohibition law until now.

Never expecting to encounter such a monster in the middle of the city, Lennok did not panic and turned his back slowly.

If a monster like this was roaming around in the sun without hesitation, there would surely be considerable attention from the people around it.

Even knowing that, there is no reason to go along with the other person’s doctor.

Thinking so, that moment when Lennok stepped on his cane to return to Jenny’s bar.

Claude casually added one more word.

“I know you heard Onion’s comments about the Black Consumer Project.”

“… … .”

A word that Lennox could never hear.

Innocence laughed at Lennok, who slowly turned his gaze.

“There is something I would like to ask for your cooperation with. Would you like to hear a story?”

* * *

District 16 of the megacity.

Among the inner districts, the outer lanes of district 16 are famous for their vast flat areas.

Only highways, grassy fields, and gas stations are intermittently lined with vacant lands, and only endless fences block the horizon.

The shape of a magnificent gateway built right in the middle of a fence that could have been hundreds of meters in length.

Even the look of the signboard hanging on top of the bloody gateway surrounded by the images of all kinds of demons and generals carved out of old trees.

[Turyeon Gate]

The door opened wide, revealing the shape of a vast manor.

Awesome… … !!

Hundreds of superhumans canter around the outskirts of the huge manor and beat wooden dolls.

From those facing each other who are absorbed in sparring, to those standing guard with weapons in the cabinet inside the manor.

All those warriors who are devoted only to polishing and polishing themselves politely bow their heads the moment they face their innocence.

“Prince Azlan, how was your outing after a long time?”

“The writer is waiting for you.”

“Looks like you got a direct call from the Central Council.”

The figures of warriors naturally following innocence and Lennok and saying various things.

The innocence simply nodded and immediately took out the matter.

“Guide me where to receive the guests.”

“All right!”

It guides the two as if escorting them towards the main building built like a palace.

I didn’t even ask what it was or what it was for.

[…] … Ban, you have to be careful.]

Jenny’s voice was faintly heard in Lennox’s ears.

[Turyeonmun’s innocence. Among the monsters who were bound by the forbidden law, he was a person who took a very dangerous course.]

“… … .”

Since the voice is transmitted directly using the bone conduction phenomenon of magical energy, there is no way for innocent people to hear it.

Jenny understood that and was relaying information about innocence quickly in a way that only Lennok could.

Darby’s data hacking or Lennok’s magic sense alone can’t tell.

Secret rumors and information that were passed on only by word of mouth among those who knew in the dark.

[It’s a monster that has existed since the time this city was being reorganized, and it’s a noob that even held the position of a member of the council… … . There is a saying that he resigned from his position in a very unfortunate incident.]

Jenny said in a very nervous voice.

[In some cases, it is already irreversible due to mental illness-]

“I hope you understand.”

“… … .”

Innocence turned his gaze to Lennok and smiled.

“I have been away from the main text for a while due to work, and the reception is very busy.”

“Does not matter.”

said Lennok with an expressionless face.

Since I already had a rough idea of ​​what the innocence was talking about, I didn’t even bother to ask about it.

Jenny, who was holding her breath at the strangely overlapping words of innocence, spoke quietly as if in a whisper.

[…] … I’ll link my account on the deep web to Van’s phone for a while. Find the information you need right away.]

is the information you need

Although he understood Jenny’s concerns, Lennok had no intention of using the account right away.

There is no reason to go round and round at the point of following innocence. If necessary, dig it out directly through conversation.

It wasn’t that difficult to find something special about his behavior.

“Rather, how long are you going to keep that ridiculous tone?”

“… … You mean the way you talk?”

Seeing the halting innocence, Lennok laughed.

“Unreasonable respect. It’s mixed with a sense of goodwill that you can’t hide, and it’s coming out.”

“… … .”

“Actually, I have no intention of doing that, but I’m just forcing myself to press it. Rather, this is to the extent that it annoys me.”

The way he kept talking to Lennok was rather awkward and unclear, so it was easy to grasp.

Innocence is probably not the kind of personality that always respects or pays attention to subordinates.

Clearly, his tone was popping out as he tried to maintain respect for Lennok, who was clearly younger and lower in stature than himself.

“… … It can’t be.”

Innocence laughed.

“I don’t care about age, honor or position. However, I am very interested in the opponent’s skills, achievements, and achievements.”

“… … .”

“The stature built up in the name of solidity, the major that single-handedly defeated Onion. Everyone is pointing out what stage you have reached, but should I treat you carelessly?”

Having said that, Innocent chuckled while holding his mouth and pretending to pull it all the way.

“Please excuse me for bad habits. You look so much younger than I thought, I made a mistake in saying that my granddaughter, who I left behind in a foreign country, looked superficial, hahahaha!!!”

A bold reaction as if he was trying to cover up his mistakes generously.

But Lennok only smiled coldly at his innocence.

“If you don’t restrain yourself to the point of refining your tone like that, you’ll be unable to think rationally, right?”

“… … .”

The innocent laughter stopped.

“Transcending the hierarchy is also a headache. Isn’t it?”

Without waiting for an answer, he continued.

“The unexplored territory reached beyond the established path is not always beneficial to oneself.”

What does it mean to go beyond the seven stages of self-change and completely transcend the existing hierarchy?

Starting to walk along the road not taken means that you gave up stability and threw the odds.

Lennok understood very well that reaching level 8 was not necessarily an advantage.

It’s not that he insists on talking back and forth for the trivial reason that he thinks of his granddaughter.

Without forcibly trying to maintain a respectful tone of voice, you have reached a level where your self-control is so low that you can’t stand fighting.

“It makes me wonder how such a mental head can obediently accept and tolerate the prohibition law.”

Looking down at the silent innocent’s back, Lennok spoke plainly.

“At that level, wouldn’t it be better to tie up your limbs and lock yourself in a closet and not come out?”

“… … Whoops.”

low laughter. Creepy flesh oozes out from under the swaying white coating.

In the stream of murder that strangled all sides, the string that tied the neatly arranged white hair broke and turned into scattered hair.

Click!

Innocence glanced back at Lennok through his loose hair and answered in a calm voice.

“There were times when I had to suppress my urge to go that far.”

“… … .”

“I used to welcome the restraint of the prohibition law. I saw it as an opportunity to forget about the complicated situation and dig deep into myself.”

The innocence that swept his hair was ridiculing himself with a sharp sneer.

“But I realized too late that the tower I had built uncontrollably high had gotten out of control and was prone to collapsing.”

The shadow of innocence, which was walking with its hands behind its back, soon fades to pure white and begins to emit a soft light.

Along with the illusion that the bottom of their feet were brightly stained, the complexions of the soldiers who were guiding innocence turned pale.

“Ah, Lord Azlan… … !!”

“Calm down, isn’t it forbidden to release magical powers above the level of the Ascendant rank in the headquarters… … !!”

Faaaaaa!!

The magic of innocence swells up without knowing how to control it.

Ignoring the disapproval of others, the white shadow rising high began to take on a clear shape.

The shape of a white demon that was huge enough to surround an innocent body.

He wears gorgeous gray hair all over his body, and with a vicious and distorted face close to that of a skull, he glares at us with his eyes shining.

In his skinny hands, holding a flash of white light stretched out like a spear, it seemed closer to an incarnation representing the superhuman image of innocence.

“… … .”

A shady and damp chill that was completely different from the attitude that had been pretending to be pleasant somewhere before.

The aspect of a monster born at the end of an image twist and living in the shadows.

Perhaps this is the essence close to the true nature of the monster called innocence.

A monster that pursues the essence of an uninhabited person more powerfully and vividly than anyone else, and has become unable to imagine anything other than that image.

It’s not different from the sense of incongruity I faintly felt when dealing with Evelyn.

The 8th level superpowers are already somewhat out of human morality and temperament, and are struggling to adjust and control it in their own way.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa… … !!

The ghost’s gaze glazed over as if it would eat Lennok at any moment.

It seems clear what Claude Azlan thinks of Lennok.

Probably, when fighting Maya Lenslet, he also used similar powers, madly inflating the weight class and scale of his magical powers.

However, Lennok only touched the cane in spite of the shape of the white ghost rising as if it would attack at any moment.

“Are you using a monster born from the twist of your image like an incarnation? Interesting though… … .”

Faaaa!!

A wave of achromatic color burst out from under Lennok’s feet, and began to press down on the shape of the white ghost on the spot.

“It’s not something to take out in a place like this.”

The intention to freely deal with the signs that appear right before the development of the magnetic field.

The weight contained in Lennok’s image carried in the waves presses down on the shape of the white ghost itself and fades away.

The golden spirituality burst out and pierced the eyes of the white ghost without hesitation.

Whoa… … !!

Innocence, too, did not resist the power of the waves that Lennok unleashed for long.

As if he knew it would happen, the shape of a hundred ghosts faded so vainly.

The other soldiers who were watching the scene from the side hesitated back without being able to speak properly.

“How could a mere wizard do the madness of Lord Azlan!!”

“It might not be too dangerous a talent to include in the main text… … !!”

However, innocent ignored the reaction of the other warriors and smiled as if he knew it.

“Yes, I could.”

“… … .”

“It can’t be without you. I have already made my decision.”

Words that don’t make any sense.

However, Lennok, who understood the words to some extent, did not bother to respond.

Innocence had just reacted to Lennok’s provocation, trying to make sure that he had risen to the point where he could counterbalance his powers head-on.

The silence lasted for a moment.

“Well, but these days, I’m paying a lot of attention to mental training.”

innocently said, picking up the broken hair tie and casually tidying up her gray hair again.

He smiled and cleared his throat again, then looked away with a grin.

The other soldiers hurriedly came to their senses and began guiding them again.

However, unlike before, when they were staring at Lennok somewhere, their eyes still couldn’t leave the wizard holding the staff.

“Rather than thinking about becoming stronger, sometimes I try to forget about it and live. Go back as soon as possible Even now, I personally feel that the old saying is not wrong.”

Is there a way to become stronger only when we shouldn’t aim to become stronger?

Although Lennok did not know much about the precariousness of such warriors’ values ​​or images.

I was sympathetic to a certain extent that such contradictions are part of the essence that makes up the inner side of human beings.

“I don’t think this will be a very pleasant story, so shall we stop here?”

Saying so, Gyeolbaek moved toward the side of Bongak Manor without hesitation.

“I think I need to put aside my pointless story and explain the business that brought you here.”

Climb up to the antique pavilion covered with luxurious carpets and sit in front of a lavishly decorated table.

During that short time when the two of them walked down and down the manor and had a conversation, did they set up such a splendid table for the guests?

Innocence raised a steaming cup and pushed it in front of Lennok.

“How about we start off with a drink?”

* * *

“More than 50 years have passed since Turianmen was established in this city.”

After drinking the glass without hesitation, the bottle rotates and rises in place with just a flick of the finger.

With just a glance while holding the glass, it was poured into the glass as if an invisible hand was pouring it.

“We were here until the project failed, the parliament changed hands, the civil war turned the tide, and Kaise’s granddaughter became a broker.”

“… … .”

Did you hear or not hear?

“Do you know what that means?”

A strangely innocent face. It seemed that he had no intention of hiding the fact that he wanted to see the reaction.

But Lennok did not raise an eyebrow at such an innocence question.

“Do you want to boast that it is rotten water because it is stagnant?”

“Hahahaha!!”

Innocence, who burst into laughter at Lennok’s words, raised his glass and drank it down.

“That’s how much it means that you’ve been helping out in various ways with what’s happening in the dark of this city.”

“… … .”

“I haven’t let go of my hands since I was bound by the prohibition law. Rather, I tried to keep an eye on everything.”

Maybe it’s because of her white complexion and skin, even a little bit of alcohol makes her face look red.

As he drank several glasses in succession, innocently held up the bottle with a slightly reddened face.

“For example, like the treason of the National Guard in which you participated.”

“… … .”

“Lieutenant General Edmus Treffen. You must remember the mobile fortress commander’s betrayal, right?”

It was only then that Lennok, who realized that the innocence had brought up the main issue, put down the glass he was holding without a word.

Innocence said while staring at Lennok’s gesture.

“At the time, Lieutenant General Treppen tried to make a deal with Congress using abandoned military facilities in undeveloped areas, and it actually worked.”

“however?”

“The Council would have had to concede a lot if the Agent’s Deputy Director, Palad Okon, hadn’t recruited talent like you to stop the mobile fortress.”

Innocence tilted his glass and continued.

“Because it was clear that a loophole in the prohibition law had been discovered, we were also able to release our hands and feet while maintaining the existing privileges. There will be almost no organization or force that has not watched the process with interest.”

“… … .”

“The problem is that in the process, Deputy Director Pallad went around some of the closed areas with some freelancers. I don’t know if you remember.”

“… … A closed area?”

Lennok immediately remembered what incident Innocent was referring to.

Before heading to the undeveloped district to deal with the mobile fortress, didn’t you infiltrate Area 6, which is designated as a closed area, and search for classified documents?

The operation used the data obtained in the process to figure out the advance route of the mobile fortress and waged an all-out war.

Claude was talking about the time he broke into District 6.

“exactly. In fact, if you don’t confirm this, the conversation won’t proceed.”

Innocence smiled as he put down his drink.

“Because we have to go into another closed area to deal with the evils of the Black Consumer Project from now on.”
