Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 864
Takeover (32)
“Palse Lapis. The head of the blue eyes. A direct blood relative of the Ascendant Heavenly Dog Madrea Falseer. Aspect abilities that have reached level 7. The specific technique system is unknown.”
Jenny’s bar located in Area 49.
Under the softly lit bar, only Jenny’s voice echoed quietly.
“Activities started immediately after the death of Cheon-Gyeon. After dealing with drug lord Dominic Cavaro in the Dominion of Philenom, he rapidly grew in power and entered the central front in a few years.”
“… … .”
Flipping through the paper, Jenny explained.
“Except for the conflict with the drug lord, he has rarely been on the frontlines, but there is a saying that he recently appeared to show off his high-ranking abilities. Seeing how he pays attention to his public image, he must be aware of the importance of cause even at a young age.”
“It would not be easy to squeeze into the central front line and establish a position.”
Felix, the bird-headed giant who was listening to the report with his arms folded, shook his head.
“Looks like you had reliable talents by your side.”
“That part is key.”
As if Jenny had explained it well, she pointed at Felix.
“We formed an organization by enlisting powerful superhumans who had no affiliation, but there was surprisingly little internal division or backlash. It must be said that he has excellent talent in terms of the way to run an organization or in terms of popularity.”
“Are you saying that there is a high possibility of being a very attractive person as a human being? That’s what I want to see.”
Dylan, who was drinking his whiskey like water, said curiously.
“It’s hard to see our captain’s face even once every few months, seeing where he is and what he is doing!”
“Dylan, don’t be so hard on yourself. But according to the story Antares told me on his recent return-”
“What did Antares say?”
The young man’s voice naturally intervened in the party’s conversation.
Realizing that it was a very familiar tone, dozens of people turned their heads at the same time.
At the end of the wide bar, a well-dressed wizard was sitting with a cigarette in his hand.
“half!!”
“You, this baby. In the meantime, where and what were you doing… … !!!”
Dylan jumps to his feet, and the overturned chair hits Mila in the knee, and in a fit of heat, Mila kicks Dylan in the back.
Udangtangtang!!
Dylan roared, jumping up and bleeding from his nose through his mask.
“X-foot, let’s try this!”
“Who are you to say, you idiot!!”
“It’s boring, it’s boring. Fight again?”
Wei An shook his head at the bar, which quickly became noisy, and Tatiana, who was drinking from a distance, smiled.
“Calm down. It’s been a long time since half came back, so you’re going to be punching?”
Felix grabbed Dylan and Mila by the nape of their necks, and hung the two of them on a hanger hanging on the wall.
Looking at the mercenaries dangling in the air, the twins giggled and laughed, and Manson, holding a cell phone, captured the ugliness on camera.
“Don’t shoot, you tin can!”
[Do not touch. If half is taken, the recording will not work properly, so the angle must be adjusted.]
“Kyaaak! Wow! Ughhhh!!”
“ha… … .”
Jenny sighed and approached Lennok at the sight of Mila interrupting the filming with a shrieking scream like a pterosaur.
Lennok smiled as he politely accepted and drank the cocktail that Jordan had made before he knew it.
“Even though it’s been a while, nothing has changed here. yes?”
“no. A lot has changed.”
Jenny answered, sitting in front of Lennok with a calm expression.
“Once you come, everyone seems to be less intelligent. It is a very serious problem.”
“An interesting hypothesis.”
“Has it been over a week since you came back? What have you been doing all this time?”
Jenny glanced at Lennok with narrow eyes and asked.
“that-”
“Ah, there is no need to explain the Balkans. I’ve heard of the underground fighting arena and the research lab, wandering around and messing around.”
“… … .”
Certainly, as a class member, I’ve rarely cared about other people’s gazes lately.
It wouldn’t be strange if she knew all about what Lennok was doing in Balkan, like how he met Ibelin.
“A lot of things happened. It is true that I have been a bit busy.”
“I guess so. Do you know how this area has changed and how noisy the business on the Mage Tower side is?”
As if she had waited, Jenny poured out a quick complaint at Lennok.
“Did you change half of the Mage Tower affiliated businesses because of accounting fraud? Didn’t you know that in the process, me and the kids ran around the city all night and had a chase? You wouldn’t know that Antares came forward and cleaned up the fictitious day at the Technical Advisory Committee, or that Baritz Company organized a new item brokerage division.”
“It sounds like a lot of fun.”
Lennok, who had been quietly listening to Jenny’s words, responded with a smile.
“I’m sorry we couldn’t see each other. I am sorry.”
“under! Saying something you don’t mean… … .”
Jenny, who was slightly looking at Lennok while snoring, asked.
“When I ask what you’ve been doing… … Aren’t you going to teach me?”
asked Lennok, looking at Jenny pretending to be surprised.
“Did you know that now?”
“… … .”
Jenny didn’t say much, but Jenny’s mouth was twitching with a pissed off expression.
said Lennok, bringing the glass to his lips.
“I was doing some personal research.”
“inspection?”
“I haven’t had much time lately, so it’s been difficult to travel far. I had work to finish while I could.”
“I have no idea what you mean.”
“I guess so. I didn’t ask for your understanding.”
“… … half. Are you going to keep playing with me?”
Before Jenny’s temples started to ooze blood, Lennok brought out a proper explanation.
“I came from investigating the Black Consumer Project.”
“… … .”
“It took me a while to find and dig into the Corps connection. It’s nothing to worry about.”
As Victor, I can’t explain what I did in Yorta, but I should tell Jenny about the purpose.
Jenny’s eyes flickered a little, as if she understood what Lennok was trying to say with just that.
But instead of asking further what Lennok was up to, she quietly lowered her gaze.
“… … okay. I see.”
Now, he said that he was fine, that he was in danger, or that it was meaningless.
It must be because he knows that such futile persuasion means nothing to Lennok.
So, instead of forcibly holding on to it, Jenny poured the strong whiskey all at once and changed her words.
“Oh right. We were just talking about the Blue Eye, are you interested?”
“Blue eyes?”
While Lennok pretended not to know, Felix approached and naturally sat next to Lennok.
“half. It came well.”
thud!!
The lobby of the bar trembled lightly just from the presence of the bird-headed giant’s massive body.
“There are a lot of incidents that happened in Area 49 while you were gone. You should have listened to Jenny’s explanation, but shouldn’t you be aware of the progress at least briefly?”
“Felix, it’s been less than five minutes since I met Ban. In the meantime, how do you explain?”
“What, then you don’t know anything yet?”
Asked Dylan, who appeared behind Lennok, not even trying to wipe the bloody nose that had spread over his mask.
“You haven’t heard a word about how long we’ve been running around this city to protect the mage tower?!”
“… … okay. Calm down ’cause I know I will listen slowly later.”
While Lennok left for Yorta, he understood that there had been several disturbances over the mage tower.
It seems that the members of the Antares mercenary corps, including Jenny, have gone through some eventful adventures.
“Rather than that, I want to hear what you just said.”
Lennok said, pointing to the projector Jenny had hung on the wall of the bar.
Various phrases and sources of all kinds of data written on the screen. A picture popped up in the middle of the screen.
The figure of a woman standing on a vast hill holding down her flowing blue hair with one hand.
A face that does not show emotion, and a detached atmosphere that seems to be far from the world.
It is a picture of someone who is in Lennok’s memory, but also feels quite awkward.
It must be because the gap of time felt between the girl Lennok remembers and the woman in the photograph is so significant.
But Lennok asked without any outward expression of such sentiments.
“Why were you discussing the Blue Eye?”
[Oh, half. Do you know the lighthouse keeper?]
Manson asked from behind Lennok with a look of interest.
“Is there anyone who doesn’t know about the secret society that entered the central front?”
Lennok replied calmly.
“Now, it is a force that has become so famous that it is difficult to call it a secret society. I am aware of the granddaughter of the Thousand Dogs.”
“hmm.”
At those words, the other colleagues looked at each other and nodded their heads in agreement.
“Hey, it’s because I’m half an archmage. It wouldn’t be strange if you knew about the Ascendant’s bloodline.”
“In the first place, there are almost no blood relatives of the Ascended. That’s not a talent that usually runs well through blood.”
“Ah, come to think of it, in the middle… … .”
Tatiana paused as she thought of something.
“no. It is nothing.”
“ah! Why don’t you talk.”
For a moment, the people who turned their eyes toward her protested fiercely.
The focus on the topic for a moment was the appearance of mercenaries who started talking among themselves in an instant.
“The first way to make people angry is to stop talking, and the second is… … .”
“Fuck Belver, I told you not to do that.”
“On a fictional day, I learned only strange proverbs from an investment advisory site, and I say, fuck, fuck.”
“I’m not your mother, so should I install an internet access blocking app?”
“Ban, look at this.”
Jenny muttered tiredly as she leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed.
“Do you think it’s true that children’s intelligence is low when you come?”
“… … .”
“Tatiana, what do you want to say? If you can’t say something, tell me in advance.”
“No, it’s a topic that has nothing to do with it now… … .”
Tatiana glanced at Lennok at Jenny’s prompting. The way she strangely wiggled her fingers.
Lennox tossed a cigarette in his arms, and she took it and lit it, laughing.
“thanks. It kept coming to mind.”
Said the witch, emitting smoke as if satisfied.
“There was a rumor that there was a blood relative of the ascendant in Pandaemonium for a while. It was a while ago.”
“Pandemonium?”
As if he hadn’t expected to hear the name here, Wei’an’s eyes widened.
“No, it’s not unusual for monsters to gather in a criminal organization… … You mean a blood relative of the Ascendant joined there?”
“It was quickly buried because it was a rumor without evidence, but I remembered it because it came from the Kavahim side.”
said Tatiana with a shrug.
“It’s not common for useless words to come out in that monarchy. Especially if it’s information that has nothing to do with royalty.”
“hmm… … .”
“Forget it. I just wanted to know if half of you knew anything.”
Tatiana grinned, holding the tobacco in her mouth.
“I wanted to take this and smoke it after a long time.”
“… … I mean, my tastes are eccentric.”
“Ban, how are you? Do you have any guesses?”
“well.”
Lennok replied as he poured whiskey into an empty glass.
“I don’t know if that’s true or not, but digging into it won’t mean much.”
“Eh, why?”
“You’ll know it when you see the Lapis Falseer.”
Lennok looked away as he said that.
“Even after setting up an organization of that size alone, isn’t it still called the granddaughter of the Thousand Dogs?”
“… … .”
“If there is a blood relative of the Ascendant within the Pandemonium, just announcing that fact will make it very famous. If you had hoped for that, you would have disclosed your origins long ago.”
Looking back at the slightly serious mercenaries, Lennok smiled.
“So, if the rumors are true, wouldn’t the person concerned bother to mention them?”
“Hmm, did the rumors disappear because of the murder?”
“That’s a reasonable inference.”
“No, by the way, half of you really know quite a bit about the blue eye.”
Jenny asked, slightly tilting her head over the bar as if unexpectedly.
“Or were you just listening to the briefing I gave you?”
“Now that we’re done talking about Pandaemonium, let’s start with the reason why we are here. It seems like the topic has been going round and round ever since.”
Lennok shook his head.
“Why were you briefing us about the Blue Eye?”
“… … .”
Jenny and Tatiana meet each other’s eyes for a moment, and Felix nods.
Jenny, who quickly exchanged opinions, whispered in a low voice.
“The Central Council put in an inquiry to the express brokers. It looks like they want to borrow your help from the level of information gathering regarding Lapis Falseer’s visit to the Balkans.”
“… … .”
“It is said that the position inside the council was divided on both sides ahead of the confrontation with the Blue Eye.”
Jenny glanced back at the screen and murmured.
“And at this point, if there is any contact that exists between the Parliament and the Qing Eye, there is only one non-aggression treaty signed against the Dominion of Philenom.”
“Were you investigating Lapis Falseer’s identity to confirm its authenticity?”
“Because the non-aggression treaty of the Dominion is a matter in which the Balkans have a lot of interests at stake.”
Jenny smiled bitterly.
“Chun Gyeon tied the knot himself, but originally it would have been a much more complicated and uncomfortable problem than it is now. Conflicts are fierce even over the special environment of the Dominion and the sea of u200bu200binterest.”
“… … .”
“And now that Cheon-Gyeon died and his granddaughter inherited the right instead… … It’s only natural for things to get twisted like this.”
Leaving Lennok unresponsive, Jenny stood in front of the projector again and continued the briefing.
“The important thing is that Qing requested a transaction related to the Non-Aggression Pact. That’s why the Blue Eye’s main unit will not enter the Balkans, and Lapis will come and go directly with only two or three watchers.”
“The reason Lapis Falseer wants to get his hands on the non-aggression pact again. Finding this out is included in the additional reward for the quest.”
After a quick explanation, Jenny glanced back at Lennok.
“Ban, so if you’re thinking about doing it, put your name first on the list of requests-”
“well.”
Lennok, who gulped down the remaining whiskey, answered.
“I don’t know. If there is someone to do it, it would be better to judge and deal with it arbitrarily.”
“No, if you showed up at this timing, of course you didn’t come to receive a request?!”
“What the hell do you think of me?”
Lennok sighed and shook his head.
“There are things to think about. I have no intention of putting my hand on it right now.”
Even if it’s not, because of what happened recently, I’m thinking about how to deal with Lapis’ problem.
At this point, when you haven’t made up your mind yet, there’s probably no reason to bring it up first.
“Certainly considering Ban’s position, it would be difficult to intervene hastily.”
Felix, who was examining the atmosphere around him, murmured as he reached for the tuna sashimi placed in front of Lennok.
The bird-headed giant, pretending not to notice Jenny’s glaring gaze, turned to the other mercenaries scattered in the lobby.
“This is an understandable fact. but… … .”
“but?”
“I plan to meet Lapis Falseer separately from this request.”
Felix looked back at the mercenaries in a firm voice and said.
“The Blue Eye is currently the most attention-grabbing force in the center, and its watchers are not at a level to look down on. As Lapis is a person rumored to be very popular and trustworthy, it will be useful someday if you erase your debt here.”
“debt?”
Tatiana frowned subtly.
“You don’t know what the warlords of the central front are like. Do you think there is such a thing as conscience or trust in the head of a large force?”
“Tatiana.”
Soo-ryun, with a slightly firm expression, dissuaded her from the sharp witch’s words, but Tatiana did not stop.
“I don’t know what you think of Lapis Falseer, but it’s unlikely that you’re as withdrawn as you think. If you want a reward without a price, wake up.”
“… … .”
No one here knows why Tatiana said such a thing.
She also suffered for a long time from her teacher, the Master of the Magic Tower, and had to endure unrequited sacrifice and pain.
Tatiana knows better than anyone how cold-blooded the titans of the central front are, demanding severe devotion.
“Maybe.”
However, Felix still shook his head with a calm expression.
“Hana, I don’t think Blue Eye is a warlord who entered the center like that. If so, their actions would have been much more radical than they are now.”
“… … .”
“Don’t worry, Witch of Fire. In the worst case, I will try to finish it alone.”
“under… … I can’t speak.”
Tatiana frowned and shook her head.
“Do whatever you feel like. You didn’t intend to listen anyway, did you?”
In an instant, the atmosphere turned sharply, and a quiet silence fell from all sides.
The moment Tatiana, who had been smoking cigarettes nervously, jumped up from her seat and was about to leave the lobby.
[Gyao~]
A very loud cry echoed from under the ground, shaking the entire bar lobby.
coo!!
“What, what!!”
“It’s a monster! A monster has appeared!!”
The appearance of mercenaries who jump up and run around drunk with a spirit gone out of spirit.
Lennok put down his glass and nodded as if he had just remembered it.
“Ah, it looks like you’re awake.”
“… … you woke up? what?”
“The Guardian Spirit Cracked the egg and came out. He left it to sleep for a while, but it seems he just woke up.”
“… … .”
Looking at the other mercenaries who were at a loss for words and opened their mouths, Lennok nodded.
“It should still be in the underground cavity of the tower, so would you like to go see it?”
Udang-tang-tang!!!
People knocking over tables and chairs in the lobby rushed out of the bar.
“… … You should have told me that sooner!”
“Let’s go down quickly!!”
“Tatiana, come with me!!”
“No, I… … .”
Like the collision just now, the witch looked at her with an awkward expression in an instant.
However, Jenny grabbed Tatiana by the shoulders and immediately ran to the mage tower first.
“What are you trying to do while managing the Mage Tower system? Hurry up and follow me!!”
“Ah, okay, let’s talk about it!”
“… … .”
The appearance of mercenaries who ran out of the lobby shouting excitedly from all sides.
Felix nibbled at the remaining tuna sashimi with a bitter face, but stood up belatedly as if to follow suit.
Lennok’s voice came from behind Felix as he walked down the hallway.
“Why don’t you eat what’s left and go?”
“… … .”
“If you leave it at room temperature, it will go bad quickly.”
“half.”
Looking at the bowl of tuna sashimi in Lennok’s hand, Felix smiled bitterly.
“Jenny will notice if you eat it all.”
“… … How much have you been eating?”
Slightly startled, Lennok tossed the package he was holding to Felix.
Said the bird-headed giant, who was gloomy, but still accepted the tuna sashimi.
“It’s been a while since I’ve come back, but I’m sorry I only showed you a bad side.”
“are you okay.”
Lennok leaned against the wall in the hallway and asked for a cigarette.
“You are not spontaneous enough to move just because you like people or like the organization.”
“… … .”
said Lennok to the silent Felix.
“Is there a problem with the mercenaries?”
“that… … .”
“If you don’t want to answer, it’s fine if you don’t. It doesn’t mean you have to listen.”
Smoke billowed overhead and Lennok stood up.
“Just make your position clear to Tatiana. Like you, she has reasons to say so. No wonder she doesn’t trust the lighthouse keeper.”
“… … no. It is entirely my fault.”
Felix shook his head.
“Other people may not know, but I shouldn’t hide it from you. It is purely my personal wish.”
“Is it the wind?”
“Lapis Falseer is the granddaughter of the Celestial Dog, and is a supernatural power who can see farther than anyone else.”
Felix explained.
“It is said that those eyes go beyond the present, see the past and future, and reach the end beyond that.”
“… … no way.”
“If Lapis Falseer inherited the supernormal ability of the celestial dog, wouldn’t it be possible to observe the future of a person with precognitive ability differently?”
Lennok’s expression changed slightly when he finally realized what Felix wanted.
“Antares doesn’t have much time left.”
Felix murmured painfully.
“I ask Lapis Falseer if I can change the ending of Antares… … I am going to ask for it.”
