The general meeting of executives (4)
A bizarre idea of incorporating the enemy who caused losses of tens of billions of cells into the president’s group.
But Lennok sensed that her decision was based on the coldest and most rational judgment.
Anyway, Oliviera herself is in a situation where she cannot easily move due to external checks.
What is the way to remove the risk to the organization at the present time, when it is difficult to ascertain the extent of Lennok’s ability to single-handedly massacre the executive director and other members of the execution squad?
If you make that risk your own, there is no problem.
For Oliviera, the line between enemy and friend had no meaning.
When Lennok glared at Virgil, who stood with his hands behind his back in the corner of the podium, he grinned.
From his point of view, he did not break the promise he made with Lennok.
Not only did he take responsibility and help finish this job, but also, crucially, the cartel stopped being hostile to Lennok.
I thought it was an opponent I couldn’t completely trust, but I never thought it would come out like this.
“I can’t see you anymore….”
Lennok shook his head and pulled out his phone from within his arms.
I can guess what Oliviera was thinking when she did this.
If you are really fascinated by Lennok’s talent or ability, you can call Lennok separately and talk to him instead of at the executive meeting.
However, the meaning of making such an announcement in a situation where thousands of people and outside eyes are watching means that
people will turn their eyes to a new competitor, not to divisions within the organization.
It is intended to make everything that has happened so far not be seen as a weakness of the cartel, but as a mere internal struggle for succession.
[Antares.]
If envy exists in requests and promises, now is the moment to pull the chains tied to each other.
If the other side wants to bring Lennok to the side and make a play, Lennok will also introduce a new character.
[Ready. Just decide the timing.]
Simultaneously with Antares’ intrusion, Lennok announces his intention to refuse to the chairman and exits the hall using Enakpil’s five fingers.
Negotiations with her should be carried out secretly in a space out of sight of others, not in an open hall.
The important thing is the moment to call a new helper.
It is only natural that you have to be smart in order to finish the job smoothly without being checked by the chairman.
“….”
As I stand up while holding my cell phone, I feel the eyes around me change even more.
The moment Lennok was about to start moving towards the podium.
“Who decides that?”
A ray of black light struck from above the gigantic stadium.
Jjijijijijik-!!
The flash of light that hit the center of the podium instantly covered the stadium, drawing a huge black wave.
In the center of the wave, a young man appears as if a shadow is being lifted.
An appearance of unknown age and a somewhat bad manner of speaking.
Even the awe-inspiring attitude that Lennok had never forgotten.
It must have been.
Battle against the cigar bang gang The powerful warlock he encountered right after killing Eden.
Pandaemonium suddenly appeared here.
“…!!!”
There was nothing to worry about.
In an instant, as he took out Enakpil’s five fingers and lifted them up, Lennok felt a strong sense of incongruity and sharpened his senses.
The appearance of the pandemonium. What’s more, it’s such an outrageous appearance.
It wouldn’t be strange if there was a fuss around.
Still, Lennok’s surroundings were frighteningly silent.
‘This….’
people who are hardened. A calm expression that does not feel the slightest embarrassment.
A member of the pandemonium appeared in front of him, but he did not even show any reaction. However, it is moving very slowly without stopping completely.
Lennok shuddered when he realized what was happening.
‘Are you accelerating only the consciousness in the space and slowing down the time around you? … .!!’
That fleeting moment when a black flash strikes.
While setting the beginning and end of time, it accelerates the time of the spirit that exists between them to create a world of consciousness that is temporarily separated from the surroundings.
It is the effect that the surrounding space does not completely stop and extremely slows down.
If you don’t have special mental resistance, you won’t even be aware of this moment and will bounce off.
‘then…!!’
Thinking that far, Lenok turned his senses and checked the podium, where the expected scenery was unfolding.
Only Oliviera and the young man were facing each other in the stopped world, where even the four presidents had completely stopped.
Even in the accelerated world of consciousness, the two seemed unaffected.
She looked up at the young man with a slight tilt of her head and said with an unpleasant voice.
[number of people…. It’s been a while since I’ve seen that face.]
‘Is it called Myeong? … .’
How are the two of them reflected in the eyes of the completer who has completed his inner world as a complete world?
It was a scene that was difficult for Lennox to fathom right now.
Instead of answering her words, Myeong stared down at her.
As he cast his gaze over Oliviera’s veil, he twisted the corner of his mouth.
“Ha, I thought the real body was here, but it was just a ghost. It’s so insignificant.”
[…] … What’s going on here?]
Oliviera asked.
[I’ve said it before, but I don’t intend to go along with your nonsense. If it’s something that needs attention,
you’ve found the wrong seat, so go back.] I also thought that your ‘research’ was over.”
[…] … .]
“It doesn’t matter since I know that my pitiful appearance has not improved…Don’t touch that.”
[That one?]
“That one, that one.”
Myung nodded at Lennok.
Oliveira’s eyes flashed deeply for an instant.
[Oh, that’s right. Even in pandemonium-]
“Tell me not to be greedy.”
A cold smile appeared on Myung’s lips.
“You get a rough idea of what I’m talking about, right?”
[…] … That’s ridiculous.]
Only then did Oliviera realize Myeong’s intentions and let out a blank laugh.
He has no interest in Oliviera’s circumstances. It was just an excuse to show up here.
Don’t even think about tying Lennok to the cartel.
Myung appeared directly at this place only to warn them.
[I knew you liked talented magicians, but…I hope it will be like this Are you saying it’s really worth it?]
“Well?”
He let out a suspicious smile and slowly turned his back.
“But there’s no doubt that it’s a waste of money for a grandmother to have alone.”
[…] … .]
“I have no interest in any position in the cartel. However, if you use cumbersome tricks for such a small organization… … .”
Myeong’s eyes, who had been speaking, accurately caught Lennok and bent for a long time.
Before I could even think about the meaning of that smile, his figure disappeared as if it were melting beyond the black waves.
“You better look forward to it.”
Only those last words echoed throughout the stadium and pierced the eardrums of those who came to their senses belatedly.
Virgil, realizing that something was wrong in an instant, raised his head toward the chairman.
“Chairman, this is…!”
[Indeed, a noble guest has come and gone.]
Oliviera crossed her arms and slowly looked up at the sky.
The stadium’s billboard.
At the far end of the field, a woman in a black suit is looking down.
Green eyes that melt into the cold air glow beyond the visor.
She let out a small sigh as she sensed the sharp and secret murder in his gaze.
[I should have kept the precarious balance well…. It’s not going the way I thought either. If you drag on here for more time, you’ll get frostbite.]
“Then….”
[The general assembly is suspended. The unfinished story… … . I think you can listen directly to that child.]
Only then did Oliviera’s gaze return to Lennok.
Lennok also silently looked up at her and put the phone in his pocket.
It seemed that there was no need to call Antares.
* * *
The general meeting, which brought together thousands of cartel executives and employees, ended with only unconventional declarations and actions.
In the meantime, an uninvited guest turned the table over, but not many people noticed it.
The method chosen by the black magician of Pandemonium was very sharp and meticulous, unlike his bad words and actions.
It was as if he was conveying a message to Oliviera and at the same time revealing his will through an armed demonstration.
The question must be whether he knew that Lennok had been listening to the conversation in the process.
It was a problem that Lennok did not know at the moment whether Ming had intended that.
While I was immersed in my worries, the work progressed in an instant.
After sending all of the cartel’s employees back, Oliviera called Lennok directly to her heart.
with four chiefs to assist her.
Kansoa shows up first and smiles mysteriously, followed by Meryl.
“This guy is half the guy.”
Merylda looked up at Lennok and frowned.
“I smell something bitter…. What kind of herbs do you grow?”
“….”
Even Lennok was a little surprised to see the girl clutching her nose and waving her fluorescent hair around.
I thought I might not know, and I was paying attention to mixing the medicine until right before I came, but I didn’t know that I would notice the scent.
This is because Lennok, who is basically doing his best not to leave any traces, even cleanly erases his own smell.
It is said that there is a sensory organ that detects something more than just smell… … . It was interesting.
Before I could continue my thoughts, Virgil appeared next.
As soon as Virgil met Lennoc’s gaze, he smiled and looked away.
“I hope you don’t look at me like that. Because I kept my promise. After today, the cartel will not meddle in your business.”
“Are you saying that now?”
“Wouldn’t that be a bad thing from your point of view? You probably don’t know how powerful a position it is to be the president of a cartel.”
“….”
As Lennok fell silent, Virgil lowered his sunglasses and grinned.
“If the president didn’t like you, it wouldn’t have happened. Well, the other guys don’t seem to like it so much… … .”
Dduduk!
As soon as those words were finished, the spacious gate opened and finally the first president, Parden McQueen, appeared.
The other bosses glared at him, causing death in unison, but McQueen slowly moved to a corner with his eyes closed without a hint of agitation.
Only then did a woman appear in a chair placed on a hill in the spacious office where books were piled up.
[Everyone is seated. There were still unfinished stories, so I took my time.]
All the presidents bowed their heads at the low voice of Oliviera.
Only Lennok checked her figure and narrowed his brows.
‘Welcome again… … .’
Where are you and what are you doing so that you don’t reveal your true self?
That must be the deadliest secret of Oliviera Lone Maze.
Perhaps even the series of actions she is doing right now… … .
As she pondered, she opened her mouth again.
[As I already said at the general meeting, I was thinking of entrusting the management of the cartel’s affiliates to the magician of District 49.] As she
said that, she removed the veil from her face and appeared in front of her.
A woman’s face with thin lines.
Unbelievable youth for a person who has lived hundreds of years.
However, what catches the eye first is the brilliant light of the demon’s eye that shines completely with seven colors mixed.
“…!”
Despite the evil eye of his alter ego, all the presidents gathered here avoid his gaze.
[Originally, I was going to hear the answer on the spot, but…. Things in the world don’t go your way. That’s why I want to ask you again.]
[Do you intend to take over McQueen’s position and spread your will under me?]
“…Whoa.”
Instead of answering, Lennox let out a small sigh.
To ask Lennok’s intentions only after Pandaemonium directly intervened.
Like a monster that has lived for hundreds of years, he has a self-righteous personality that doesn’t care about the intentions of others.
It wasn’t surprising.
It was only after the situation had flowed this far that it revealed itself.
The fact that she only started moving after one of the presidents betrayed her showed the kind of character Oliviera was.
Even such a traitor is calmly summoned to his office and asked for his opinion.
He is a person who should not be understood by the standards of criminals.
If that was the case, there was no reason to bow down here either.
Lennok replied calmly with his arms crossed.
“I am not very interested in the cartel’s corporate management.”
The bosses all turned their gaze to Lennok.
“This cheeky bastard…!!”
Merilda growled, showing her teeth.
Lennok ignored the gaze and opened his mouth.
“In the first place, the current situation started when McQueen intervened in my business. We found the mastermind behind the situation and handed over the witnesses involved in the betrayal, so I hope it will end with punishing those responsible.”
I have no desire to end the grudge relationship by fighting the cartel to the end.
In the first place, a corporate alliance created by linking numerous affiliates.
Although they are united under the name of a cartel, the bond between organizations is not so good.
The reason why Lennok was able to destroy partner companies so easily was because the connection between organizations was not so smooth.
In terms of mutual exchange, the cartel’s damage is dozens of times higher than this.
If the Triumvirate really collapses, the confusion that arose in the process will bring unpredictable variables to Lennok and Jenny’s business.
I don’t know if it was the time when the incident occurred, but now that business expansion is going on like crazy with the newly developed potion, it’s been a while since the circumstances have changed.
Lennok knew very well that he could not and did not need to destroy the colossus right now.
However, Oliviera smiled faintly while listening to Lennok’s words.
[It’s not difficult, but… … . Is that okay?]
He knew very well that there were many people who coveted that wizard, and that he couldn’t have it all alone.
The fact that the black magician, who was squeamish about everything, directly stepped forward would simply mean that there were quite a few people watching the class besides him.
However, if you use the eunwon relationship that still remains, it will be possible to make a kite.
[If you don’t deal with the favor with McQueen, I will continue to use him as the president.]
“….”
[There’s no guarantee that I’ll be there if McQueen does something similar next time.]
The expression of Oliviera taking off her veil reveals an indescribable joy.
A face as if continuing the conversation with Lennok was unbearably fun.
From her attitude, Lennok could easily read what she was thinking.
If McQueen retains his position as president and the chairman ignores this incident, he will eventually try to kill Lennok someday.
Rather than finishing the work with uncertain risks left, conclude the silver circle on the spot.
Oliviera had intended to hand over the presidency to a wizard named Van in exchange for giving Lennok the opportunity to kill McQueen.
