Maan Sang-dong (1)
“Hey, did you see that? saw?”
“Are you talking about a demonstration? Sure. We gathered our children and watched.”
The fact that Lennok and Ayoon had an official fight under the pretext of demonstration quickly spread beyond the cartel to the entire street.
The battle between the two was only broadcast in real time to the cartel’s middle management and above, without any recording, but there is no perfect security on this floor.
Even if the video itself could not be obtained, there were quite a few outsiders who watched the scene itself.
“No X-foot…. It was the first time I’ve ever seen someone who carved the pattern of the Guido Church so openly. Is that possible with sober mind?”
“It didn’t make sense to make excuses with a tattoo like that…A
power struggle that takes place at the head of the most intact organization among the Three Heads.
The fact that there was an official from the church in between was also enough to stimulate people’s interest, but
what drew more attention than that was the fact that the dogs from District 49 were finally starting to participate in the cartel’s work itself.
“Isn’t it really funny that no one still understands what the lightning rode did at the end?”
“He is a thoroughly thorough person who does not reveal his face even on the satellite screen. Isn’t it because you have the confidence that you won’t recognize the fact that you showed it openly?”
“I guess so. I also secretly asked people I knew who could do that?”
“…Is that it?”
“Yeah that. There are a few monsters on this street who do that.”
Perhaps you are referring to the magnetic realm.
Ignoring the expression on the face of the person accepting the words, the man quietly continued.
“All of them say that it is a concept that cannot be affirmed at their level. Maybe it looks that way because the shadow is unrecognizable. What do you think this means?”
It was only then that the other man’s expression hardened as he understood what the man wanted to say.
“…Are you saying that the fastness has already reached a level beyond the rank level?”
“okay. And maybe this commotion itself is a ploy to spread the truth.”
“….”
“Recognize only those you know and crawl as much as you can.
“I know that Gong-roe isn’t such a vaguely manipulative person…”
“Are you close with him? How do you know what that monster is thinking?”
“It’s not….”
It is true that Ban’s actions are hidden in a veil compared to his outstanding skills and reputation, but it
is also an undeniable fact that his strong character is inferred from his actions recorded over time.
According to those who worked with him or who survived dealing with him, he wasn’t crazy or twisted enough to be incompatible with.
As well as being known for his bizarrely strong skills and determined hands, he is also neat in making and breaking up.
Why would a wizard who had maintained his consistent attitude ever since he first made his name known in this city want to show off his strength by borrowing from the cartel?
The worry didn’t last long.
“Every business that is directly related to fastness will be reexamined here. Cartel Dyke Agent Even the distribution side that is collaborating with the broker…. It’s better not to clash until something is decided.”
“What are you going to do with the Achilles side? I know that the collaboration plan was uploaded there. No matter how much we hold the casting boat, it will be difficult to retract it beyond the review stage.”
“You have to think about that now. No matter how much those guys join hands with Yang Ji-jok and build up justification, the Three Heads will inevitably be the Three Heads… … .”
The other side of the two men who lower their voices and talk nonstop.
Lennok looked at them blankly and touched his glass.
The person sitting opposite Lennok snorted and muttered,
[Things are going well.]
“….”
[Many people think that there must be a reason for something unexpected. Spending meaningless time figuring out the truth that can never be known unless you are in charge
.
[Actually, there are many things in the world that do not have any reason or meaning.]
“It is natural that they do not understand the concept of imaginary number dimension.”
said Lennok, who was tipping his glass.
“It is a concept that is never touched in the process of achieving the completion or transcendence of the hierarchy. It is for madmen to give meaning to things that do not exist.”
[Do you want to say that you are also such a madman?
]
[…] … .]
For the first time, the opponent shut up. With that gesture, the veil draped over her face swayed.
The president of the cartel, and an 8th-level magician.
The head of one of the Three Heads who rule the Balkans, and a researcher involved in the city’s darkest secrets.
Lennok was drinking alone with that same Oliviera Lone Maze.
Lennok continued, looking beyond her veil.
“But when the maintenance of such beings accumulates, the same thing as yesterday happens. If you have a special spell like Kimun Disguise, you can give it your own meaning even in the imaginary number dimension.”
Reversal development of the magnetic domain [false commandment star].
A large-area reversal technique that lifts up a morning star that does not exist in the imaginary dimension and dismantles the image that has already developed around it piece by piece.
It is the extreme of reversal that uses the phenomenon that if you draw magic on the other side of the realm according to the existing realm, the images completely flipped upside down, left and right are interlocked like a key, and the constructed realm itself is released.
Although it was fatally eaten, it was possible because the gold rush he unfolded was an erosion-type area that was thoroughly specialized for battlefield control.
Even Lennok would need a bit more time and effort to do something similar against other sorcerers or superhumans.
But even at Lennox’s words, Oliviera snorted as if he couldn’t help it.
[Too much humility becomes arrogance. If the fact that you understand and deal with the principle of proof of absence so easily is in itself proof that you have already left the hierarchy halfway.]
“….”
If it wasn’t for Feigenbaum’s eyes that observe the imaginary dimension and Jindun’s barrier technique that newly defines realms and concepts, Lennok wouldn’t have been able to get his hands on such a prank in a short time.
However, instead of explaining the reason why, Lennok kept his mouth shut with an expressionless expression.
Because I didn’t want to explain what I’ve been through while refuting what the president said.
Oliviera looked at Lennok like that and asked.
[You still hesitate even with the concept of self-modification under your feet. Did you find me to solve that problem?]
“Ayun, who was dealing with the gimun disguise, tried his hand at the doctrine of the church to get out of his limits.”
Lennox smirked.
“If it is possible to protect the mind in the form of fanaticism, as he said, then we need to be wary of those who commit themselves to the Church for similar power. You will have to be careful not to let the inside story of this incident leak out.”
A series of conversations between Ayun and Lenok would not have been broadcast in the video anyway, but it is natural that there may be people who decide differently after seeing the pattern of the church.
But Oliviera shook her head despite Lennok’s warning.
[You’ve come too far to be wary of Guido’s power with such measures. Just like this time, it’s enough to weed out the idiots who fell for the doctrine.]
“Did you know that Ayun committed himself to Guido?”
[Guido’s leader is said to be a monster who is comparable to ascendant but does not let go of interest in the world.]
Oliviera said.
[Following such an existence, those who worship the end of the open sea as a god find it difficult to hide their traces in any way.]
“….”
Church of Guido.
Since Lennok dealt with Walter Martinez, who was trying to awaken as an apostle, there has been no noticeable activity in the city since he took care of Walter Martinez, but it is
unknown when he will come back and try to summon an apostle with their doctrine.
An organization that is strong enough to be counted on one hand even on this continent and has a strange conviction.
The danger was too much to think of as a fanatical religious group and ignore it.
[But again, I don’t know. How can the fanaticism that runs toward ruin be rewarded? Maybe standing at the end… … .]
After muttering that far, Oliviera cut off her words and quickly changed the topic.
[…] … It was a long talk. back to what i was talking about He would have said he wanted something from me.]
“If I hadn’t intended to make a deal, I wouldn’t have bothered looking for you.”
Lennok replied calmly.
“I was prepared from the moment I intervened in the affairs of the cartel. At least I have reason to bear the aftermath.”
Lennok took a sip of the dark brown whiskey and looked at the other man’s face hidden in a veil.
[…] … .]
Instead of answering Lennok’s words, Oliviera silently brought the glass inside the veil.
He manages to pass the whiskey well without lifting the cumbersome veil that prevents his face from being seen properly.
Oliviera said as Lennok stared blankly at him.
[This pub has existed since the days when proper area divisions did not exist in megacities.]
“….”
[It seems that not many people are looking for it now, but a long time ago, there was a time when people gathered here to discuss the running of the city.] With a
slow gesture, Oliviera pointed to the two people who were still talking over there.
[Those guys also talk frivolously, but the fact that they are drinking together here means that they are people who remember those days.]
“…It’s a meeting place that only those in the know know about. Is that why you called me here?”
[Then and now, the topic of conversation here has not changed.]
Laughing bitterly, she slowly put down her drink.
[In the past and now, the story of a talented divinity was a good snack. But aside from that, it’s also true that monsters that exceed standards haven’t appeared in this city for a long time.]
“….”
[The days when we gave meaning to each and every small movement and discussed balance… … . I thought I was tired of the endless conflict, but now I rather miss it. It’s been such a long time.]
Lennok listened silently to her self-talk in a heartless tone.
It was because the chatter of those chattering behind the two of them seemed to have unexpectedly stimulated Oliviera’s old nostalgia.
She stared blankly out of the window, but kept her mouth shut.
A silence lingers between the two. As if there had been no conversation from the beginning, she said as she put down her drink in the silence that lasted for a long time.
[I can’t tell you much about the Madrid Onion.]
“….”
[Because the ban on those directly involved in the project is still in effect after 50 years.]
Did he already know what Lennok wanted?
In fact, there is no way that Virgil, who met with Panoa, did not report the related contents to his chairman.
[However, it would be possible to give a rough idea of how it has survived and maintained its existence until now. I’ll hand over the information separately through Virgil.]
“Isn’t it because it’s a way to avoid the ban?”
[Something like that… … . The reason I called you here today is to ensure your position in the cartel from now on.]
Oliviera, who was slowly shaking her glass, said in a subdued tone.
[Decades have passed since the founding of the cartel. Touching the organization now is just repeating my folly.]
“I see.”
[But even so, this company must still be my property. It is the owner’s duty to make sure that things below do not muddy the water.]
She took an old pager out of her arms and held it in front of Lennok.
[I will decide the method, so please contact me there from now on. If you need something from each other, it will be more comfortable to talk directly to each other now.]
“….”
Oliviera’s attitude has changed subtly, even though it doesn’t seem to have changed since she dealt with 1st President Parden McQueen.
Lennock understood that this was happening because she saw herself as an equal negotiator, not just as a member of the outside directors.
If Virgil had noticed Lennok’s condition, which seemed to be on the verge of exploding at any moment, there was no way that she, who had a deeper and deeper insight than that vampire, would not have recognized it.
Leaving behind each other’s strength and state, she also noticed that Lennok had accumulated enough qualifications and knowledge to be able to converse with Oliviera in a similar position.
Due to the dispute with the cartel, many things have changed from when she first met Lennok.
How long did it take for the recognition of Lennok, who was a talented wizard worth recruiting, to become a titan that Oliviera herself had to step into?
Perhaps, instead of formally submitting to the cartel, it was for this moment that he only took the position of outside director, which was a nominal position.
Oliviera Lone Maze was sitting alone with Lennok right here, leaving behind such speculations and thoughts.
Lennok stared blankly at her veil, then opened his mouth with a faint smile.
“There must have been a reason for calling this place and talking about it. It’s not a bad choice if you want to be wary of the scale becoming too heavy.”
[…] … .]
said Lennok, slowly placing his finger on his left pupil.
“But no matter what you think, you will definitely have to pay for the work you do.”
wheein… … !!
Lennok’s left pupil rotated in place, dotted with red and blue, and soon turned into a purple demonic eye.
The cracks engraved in the retina of the outer surface of the demon’s eyes were now clearly and deeply imprinted so that they could be seen with the naked eye, so it seemed as if they would break at any moment.
“For that reason, I did the demonstration while listening to their request.”
[This…?]
Only then did Oliviera realize why Lennok had come to see her and offer her a deal.
The appearance of a demonic eye that is so unstable that it is dangerously stretched as if it will break at any moment.
“If you have the seven treasures of mystic eyes, you can understand to some extent what is happening in my eyes right now.”
Lennok looked at her calmly with those eyes and said.
“I would like to borrow your knowledge to solve this problem.”
