Gionis (1)
Despite Gionis’ unconventional remarks, the meeting ended surprisingly quickly.
As if the person in charge of the position had already been decided, the other senators did not object too much.
After being granted access to all facilities in the Mage Tower, Mouser came out of the conference room in an instant and muttered shyly.
“You were a true friend, which is rare among friends these days. It was a much more reasonable conversation than I thought.”
“Gionis Verwein. He is one of the direct disciples of the tower owner living at the central branch of the Blaver Magic Tower, and is said to be a supernova who reached the status quo before turning seventy.”
Evelyn didn’t hesitate to share information with Mouser as if she had done a lot of research on the mage tower before coming here.
“My God, then you mean that friend is a 7th level wizard who is one of the few in the Senate?”
“Due to a dispute near the central branch of the Blaver Magic Tower, the powerful members of the Magic Tower were called to the front, and now they say they are the best in the Tower. It is understandable that there is no resistance from others.”
“Hmm, it’s definitely a bit different from the old-fashioned wizards I’ve seen so far. At this level, can’t you say that you’ve done your duty enough on the side of the Blaver Magic Tower?”
“…Not necessarily.”
Evelyn said in a calm voice.
“Three days would be far too short to look around this huge mage tower.”
Located in the middle of a lava lake, this huge mage tower is the size of more than half a dozen dozen-story buildings put together.
Excluding those who simply live here and study magic and learn it as an academic, old books and materials kept for hundreds of years, as well as all kinds of equipment and artifact research papers, are piled up and occupying a huge space.
“Moreover, that man named Gionis never said a word that he would give us a proper guide.”
“You mean it was a measure that paid close attention to the external gaze.”
said Lennok.
“Anyway, as long as the fact that all the facilities inside the Mage Tower were opened to the envoys of the two cities would be enough to restore the prestige that the Mage Tower is operating normally.”
However, by actively coming out like this, the possibility that the Mage Tower succumbed to them while fighting the pandemonium is significantly lowered.
Contrary to Ibelin’s worries, did Blaver’s Magic Tower end up suffering great damage in the conflict with Pandemonium?
Instead of immediately deciding on the question, Lennok closed his eyes and began to feel the flow of magical energy around him.
Even if you can’t find the traces of pandemonium right away, there are infinite things that Lennok can do.
After a long time, a wizard named Zionis personally handed over the facility permit for the Mage Tower.
If he couldn’t make the most of this opportunity, he wasn’t even a wizard.

First of all, as Evelyn suggested, the party split up and decided to focus on gathering information from the places they thought of.
It was quite inefficient for everyone to gather together to check all of this wide tower.
With that in mind, it was prudent to immediately divide the number of people into sections and carry out an intensive investigation there.
Mouser seemed intent on moving separately to inquire about the whereabouts of the party he had been with.
Among them, Lennok chose the old book storage box located in the basement of the tower and the practice room where the gymnasium is located.
It was a spacious space made so that the wizards of the tower could continue training without leaving the tower.
“Many wizards have visited our mage tower in the past, but it has been a long time since we have had a magician who has mastered freezing magic.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. Since they are attributes close to opposites in many ways, there are many inconveniences from the way to the Mage Tower to the stay at the Mage Tower. for example….”
The guide managing the practice area naturally stretched out his arm towards the garden outside the hallway window.
A huge lizard, well over a meter tall, was flicking its tongue through the window.
Green flames flicker on the lizard’s back and dance. It was clear that it was no ordinary creature.
“It is called Salamander. It is one of the monsters that live in the volcanic area. It likes fire and hates the cold. Usually, if you look at the magicians who have learned the freezing technique, they show a violent temper… … .”
The guide, who was about to say that, stopped talking.
The lizard, which had been staring at Lennok, suddenly pressed its head against the windowpane and began rubbing its cheeks frantically.
Booby, boobies, boobies.
“….”
It was a pleasure to see a friend from hometown who had parted ways.
Both wizards were at a loss for words at the lizard’s ardent gestures, which seemed to be showering them with affection.
“ha ha ha…It seems that the wizard likes you very much. I’m not the kind of guy who is friendly with anyone like this.”
“Are you raising friends like this in the practice area?”
Lennok naturally changed the subject by asking a question.
In fact, it was only natural that Lennok’s proficiency with flame-type magic was much higher than that with freezing magic.
There was no reason to show suspiciousness even at a place like this.
“Oh yes. Building 3, where the practice area is located, has a strong tower itself, so it is equipped with various tools and creatures to gauge the level of wizards. Would you like to take a look around?”
According to the guide, there are many strange things inside Building 3, enough to let outsiders see the scenery of Building 3.
A knot that differs in strength depending on the concentration of magical power A puzzle used to test magical manipulation ability A paper that changes color depending on the level of magical power sensitivity.
Various artifacts prepared purely to stimulate the practitioners’ spirit of challenge and increase their desire for self-development.
“The most representative items are these.”
The guide took out a clear crystal from an antique display case and held it out to Lennok.
“It is an artifact that digitizes and displays the instantaneous power output of magic when you hold it and inject magic into it.”
“okay.”
“Would you like to try it?”
Lennok inadvertently reached out his hand at those words, then suddenly came to his senses and shook his head.
“It’s okay.”
For some reason, an intense sense of deja vu stopped Lennok. I felt as if I was going to grab that crystal and then the crystal would be smashed.
Lennok, who avoided the development as if he had seen it somewhere with his astonishing intuition, put the guide first and quietly picked up an item on the shelf.
Discrimination cardboard that changes color depending on the magic power sensitivity. The higher the sensitivity, the more colorful colors appear.
Fortunately, it was consumable, so I didn’t think I would know if one was gone.
When I lightly held the paper and breathed magic into it, colors of various colors rose on the paper in an instant, and soon began to cover the entire paper like crazy.
Lennok looked down at the paper, whose colors overlapped and eventually turned black, and slipped it into his coat pocket.
Belatedly, the guide realized that Lennok wasn’t following and turned his head.
“What are you doing?”
“…it’s nothing.”
After that, Lennok followed the guide around the three towers.
“This is a beacon that softens the magical flow of flame-type wizards….”
Roaring!
“Pressure glass that can withstand some degree of magical pressure….”
Wow Jangchang!
“Pollen that is sensitively felt according to sensitivity….”
“Cool!”
“….”
“….”
The wizard’s brow narrowed to the middle.
Lennok also cleared his throat and slightly averted his gaze.
Perhaps because it was a facility where knowledge and talents about magic were gathered, Lennok’s disparate talents were affecting everywhere just by passing by.
It would be difficult if there was any doubt here.
However, the guide soon relaxed his expression and smiled broadly.
“The world is really wide and there are many talented people. Since you have this level of skill, you must have been able to inspect our mage tower in person like this.”
“….”
Well, I expected it to some extent, but it was too naive.
Should I say I don’t know the world?
It seems that there is a sense of selectivity for those who do not know magic, but even taking that into account, they do not have the guts or cleverness to join a criminal organization.
At least, among the wizards confirmed in this area, there were no wizards who seemed to be in collusion with the Pandemonium.
…Should I try a little more?
Lennok cleared his throat and let out a little luck.
“You seem to be interested in the world outside the Magic Tower.”
“what…. Yes. Who wouldn’t? When I work at the tower, I desperately feel that the sun is too long. It’s been more than 10 years since I entered the Magic Tower, so now the scenery outside is blurry.”
Although they came to this remote volcanic region on their own volition with innate magical talents, it is natural that they often have other thoughts.
Lennok accepted his words roughly and began to tell a brief story about life in the Balkans.
At first, the wizards seemed to be squeamish, but it was rather difficult not to be interested in the brutal stories of blood flowing in the back alleys.
“Oh that’s true… … .”
“Huh, I never thought there would be such reckless people running around. This is not going to work.”
“It’s ridiculous that worms who have learned magic over their shoulders are pretending to be wizards in the shadows of megacities.”
If you sneak up on the wizards of the Mage Tower and take down the freelance wizards like Lennok, the atmosphere will soon become friendly.
Even though the magicians of the Mage Tower maintain a humble attitude on the outside, they basically have a subtle determination against the uneducated magic users.
The flattery, which says that if it is at their level, it will be able to occupy a place in the Balkans right now, rather feels more realistic because of Lennok’s calm attitude.
It wasn’t very obvious with the mouthing sound, but it worked even better because of it.
It is an instant for the raucous atmosphere to spread.
The wizards who had gathered before they knew it began to tell each other the facts they had heard about life in the city.
Lennok, who had succeeded in summoning nearby wizards in an instant, naturally changed the topic as the atmosphere matured.
“Well, don’t you think Zionis-nim knows these stories better than me? At most, I was a mage who used to roll in the back alleys of the city, but he must have traveled to many places as a direct disciple of the tower lord.”
“Oh he….”
The moment the wizards heard the name, the expressions on their faces became slightly awkward, but it was not enough to jump on the bandwagon.
Naturally, the mages Shia began to talk about Zionis.
“The evaluation was so good, they said that sooner or later you might be on the five-pronged rosary. Although he is the tower lord’s direct disciple, he does not neglect training and is very kind to other mages.”
“In addition, the reason why he managed to deal with the terrible atmosphere where the number of missing people has recently increased is because he actively moved instead of the old people in the Senate….”
“Ugh! This friend, be careful with your words!!”
It didn’t take long for the words to slip out of the mouths of several young wizards who were busy making fun of themselves because they wanted to be part of the story.
But Lennok, instead of lingering on the slip of the tongue, turned his head away casually and raised his magic again.
“The story is too long. Then, can we tour the proud facilities of the Blaver Mage Tower for a little longer?”
Looking at the wizards with slightly awkward expressions, Lennok smiled faintly.
“If there is no interruption, I would like to see all the power of the flame series’ unique magic today.”
The moment when Lennok was lucky to learn by stealing the flame-type magic of wizards in the practice area naturally.
“If you want that, I’ll deal with you myself.”
Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind.
“….”
A voice as cold as ice. However, the fact that there was no hostility in the tone rather made me remember the tone well.
Shaggy hair and a monocle in his left eye. A man as tall as a mulberry was staring blankly at me.
Wearing a thick maroon coat even in this hot place, he casually strode over here and looked down at the two of them.
A transparent expression, as if not a single drop of blood would come out even if stabbed.
His appearance, showing no emotion, is not much different from the voice he heard on the first day he came to the Mage Tower.
It wasn’t difficult to find out who the opponent was.
The wizards of the Mage Tower hurriedly lowered their heads with greatly agitated expressions.
“Sir Zionis…!!”
“Why did you come to the 3-dong Magic Tower? … “
I heard that one of the guests is actively touring our magic tower.”
Indifferent eyes shone through the monocle.
“It’s only natural that you’re interested in a mage who has broken through the fire pit outside the Magic Tower.”
“….”
“Even more so, if you are a magician of the ice class, it is normal not to go to the volcanic area… … . Wouldn’t it be natural to be interested?”
“great.”
Lennox also nodded without hesitation.
“If you can directly compete with the magician who has completed the hierarchy, that alone will be worth it.”
Zionis Verbain. As a direct disciple of the Tower Master, he was the person in charge who had just reached the level of the Aspect and was dispatched to the West Continent branch as a candidate for the rosary of the Blaver Magic Tower.
The wizards of the tower seem to accept his existence in their own way, but to Lennok, there are more than one or two suspicious things.
What does it mean to be the first to reveal one’s face like this, unlike the Senate, which doesn’t show nose plucking?
I thought I might be able to guess the traces from his magic.
