Regarding things that have changed (1)
Former Supreme Court Chief and a great 8th-level warlord.
The funeral of Madrich Onion, who had contributed to many places for order from the beginning of the megalopolis, was truly grand.
A public official who has left the military city to live in Balkan and devoted himself to the city for a long time.
Although in the end, he passed away in an unfortunate accident while attempting a policy that was contrary to the city government’s stance of establishing a control body to replace the law.
What’s wrong with remembering and honoring the spirits that have already died and disappeared?
Since Onion left no family or blood ties during his lifetime, there was no obstacle in organizing his legacy and recognizing his contributions.
The fact that he took the sacrificial offerings to the collapsed naval base outside the city and used them as military orders.
In the meantime, he had a decisive battle with Lennok and was defeated and annihilated.
That he lived and died unbending for his own ideals until the last moment.
The citizens who stand in the middle of the downtown area and commemorate the death do not know.
A large picture of Madric in official uniform passes by in the middle of the road in a limousine.
Even the ceremonial vehicles and police officers escorting both sides of such a limousine.
Lennok was out on the street bare-faced and silently gazing at it.
“….”
Come to think of it, it’s been quite a while since I’ve been walking around the streets with a bare face like this.
As he stroked his rough chin with his awkward hand, he naturally thought of a person who knew Lennok’s real face.
What would Aris have said if he were here?
Nearly two months have passed since she said she had to return to the Magic Tower.
A time when you can’t even promise when you’ll come back after taking a sabbatical at Rabatenon University.
Was it really the right choice not to ask her why?
Even with the reason and judgment of a perfect wizard, he always looks back on the past and hesitates.
I promise every time that I won’t leave any regrets, but nothing is easier said than done.
At least when he had occasional deep interactions with others, Lennok would always look back to see if the moment was right.
Even the monsters of Eveline Jindun Lapis and Pandaemonium.
There is another unforgettable relationship that should not be forgotten.
Lennok looked at the funeral procession of Madric Onion, who had disappeared across the street for a long time, then left.
Carol music resonating throughout the streets. The appearance of people congratulating each other with the end of the year approaching.
[I hope next year will be filled with only better things than this year.]
[Have a happy end of the year and a happy new year!]
Even as he walks past countless crowds, Lennok’s face naturally changes to Van’s.
The face, the appearance, the clothes, all the elements that stimulate the five senses, and even the magical patterns that make up the wizard’s personality.
Even the act of changing one’s status, which used to be done with great care and time and place, is now as free as breathing.
It is not simply because of the vague confidence that the series of disguises will not be discovered by others.
The more Lennok’s power goes beyond the hierarchy, the more he fills up the contents that fit his talent. The more your doubts about yourself start to turn into certainty.
It was because the fear of being discovered was fading that much.
Beyond the time of discussing the boundless future with limitless possibilities, and beyond the memory of being afraid of someone who would recognize the bowl and covet Lennok’s talent.
Lennok is also clearly aware that he is perfecting himself and looking beyond that.
Even if someone could find out and understand what Lennok really was through his appearance now.
Lennok was developing both the strength and qualifications to endure the revelation of the truth and secret.
“….”
When he changes his appearance into Ban’s face and goes out to the outskirts, he feels that the way he looks at him has changed again.
The death of Madric Onion has not been officially dug up, but rumors related to him are still floating around the streets.
Oliviera Lone Maze’s nomination request, the dog, defeated Madric Onion.
Dyke and the Cartel teamed up to bring down Achilles.
In the process, rumors that Ban’s armed forces had reached the edge of the sky were spreading throughout the streets.
‘also…. It’s not going the way I thought.’
There is no longer any hatred or jealousy in the eyes looking at Lenok.
There was no idiot who didn’t know that the rumors on the floor don’t just end with bullshit.
Awe and awe, or incomprehension and fear, as if looking at a monster or genius that is completely incomprehensible.
People in the shadows who avoid their eyes without being able to hide their feelings or reveal them openly.
That awkward attitude, as if looking at someone who shouldn’t be here, shows what kind of status Lennok had on this street.
With each step forward, the others slowly step back in line with the swaying collar of the coat.
People were afraid and vigilant even to the sight of him limping from the aftermath of his injury.
Even that swaying gesture would be tantamount to proof that the dog survived the fight against Madrich Onion.
Clash!
As I opened the door to the bar and descended the stairs, Jenny turned her head and smiled awkwardly.
“Oh half….”
Of course, her awkwardness was not due to Lennok’s changed status.
“While you were away, calls came from several places. some of them… … . There are places where it is difficult to refuse separately. I think I need to get confirmation first.”
“What is going on?”
asked Lennok, who bent his head as he struggled to accept the glass Jordan had handed him.
Jenny slightly lowered her head and said.
“Perhaps because of the rumors about the Madrid Onion, several Mage Towers have contacted me.”
“…A mage tower?”
Since Lennok started making a name for himself in the outskirts of the megalopolis, he hadn’t had many connections with the Mage Tower.
Unless you meet someone from the Mage Tower separately or receive a nomination request separately like an agent, where else will you encounter the academic world of Yangji?
So even after I started building my reputation as a freelancer and hooking up with big names in the shadows, I hadn’t really paid much attention to it.
Perhaps Jenny doesn’t have many experiences of being contacted by the Mage Tower in this way. Her slightly awkward attitude proved it.
As if he had finally realized that Lennok was a real wizard.
“Actually, we didn’t have a proper conversation, but I got a rough feeling. Everyone, you’re really that um… … They want to check it out.”
“That?”
Jenny rolled her eyes and bit her lip slightly.
“that…It’s the ultimate magician. It’s a little strange to say this, but… … They seem to want to know if you have reached level 8.”
“….”
“Oh, of course, I’m not asking you to tell me that right now. It is a very personal area and privacy.”
In front of Lennok’s calm face, Jenny waved both of her hands.
“What should I say…. let me know at once It’s likely that you’ll keep getting in touch with me on similar issues. Regarding that part, I need an appropriate answer as I am in charge of the role of your broker anyway… … This is it.”
Lennok laughed.
“You don’t have to come out so cautiously. I know roughly what the situation is going to be like.”
“Is that so?”
“It’s a difference of one number, but that means there are a lot of people who put meaning into it….”
Leaning back in the chair, he clinks his glass and is lost in thought.
It was not difficult to understand the meaning of the recent fight in which he won against a level 8 superpower in the name of Ban.
A person with Aspect Ability who has completed the seven stages of self-change is a monster and superhuman who can lead an organization anywhere on the continent.
However, the 8th level giants who have crossed the hierarchy are not beings that can be judged by the same human beings.
Where are the people who take the risk of throwing off the whole seven hierarchies built up over a lifetime with sober mind?
However, because of that, it is only natural that the 8th level wizard is treated as a strong man and a big player who will remain in the history of the continent.
Even in this megacity where tens of millions of people live, and in the many mage towers that are indifferent to wizards who are not of their faction.
The birth of a new archmage is nothing short of proof that it is such a rare and rare event.
No, even if it’s not, it doesn’t matter.
It was obvious how many people would want a wizard who had not reached the 8th level yet, but who had been proven to have comparable power.
After thinking, Lennok stood up from his seat.
“I have no intention of changing the standard. Tell it like that.”
“I only accept nomination requests, but the rewards and themes are space-time magic and artifacts, right?”
It is true that I thought that I might be able to use this opportunity to hear from Aris for a very short time.
However, Lennok already knew that there was no point in hearing each other’s news like that.
In the end, admitting that Lennok obtained power comparable to that of an 8th level in this way would not bring much gain.
Only those who demand responsibility that goes with that power will only increase.
At this point, when Lennok himself could not say that he had reached the pinnacle yet, there was no need to answer and acknowledge that part first.
The important thing was to reorganize all this power and order swirling inside him in the direction he had originally thought.
“For now, I sent an answer in the direction of maintaining the existing attitude, but should I contact you separately?”
“no.”
After emptying the rest of his glass, Lennok turned his head away.
“I will speak for myself.”
Whoop… … .!!
At that moment, Lennok’s body disappeared on the spot and appeared from behind the spacious bar.
Lennok, sitting casually among those who sat on a soft sofa bent at right angles under dim lighting and bargained over goods, leaned back and said,
“I’m sure you’ve heard the situation going around, so I’ll cut it short.”
“…Hey, what are you doing, you fuckin’ interfere with our deal?”
“I’m talking about something important, so get out of here.”
Even when they see Lennok, the two men show their teeth instead of being intimidated at all.
Seeing them like that, Lennok smiled.
“Right before I came in, I cast a perception-disrupting spell on the others. The wit that notices that and pretends not to know me is commendable.”
“What bullshit are you talking about….”
“But it was only you two who didn’t stop talking the second I entered the bar. Customers who come here are quite sensitive, so when a new face comes in, they tend to pay attention even for a moment.”
“….”
After saying that, the two men immediately shut their mouths.
In their eyes, the dirty hostility disappeared as if they had been washed away, and only the calm and intelligent eyes shone.
“It’s Thorburn’s Magic Tower, isn’t it? It’s my first time seeing it in person. You should pass the message to the other magic towers on my behalf.”
Lennok ignored the reaction, picked up a bottle from the table and poured it into their glasses.
“I mean, I have no intention of interfering in the messy war business of the Mage Tower. Stepping on the wire will be a matter entirely of my judgment. Do you understand?”
Thorburn Mage Tower that researches Lightning-type unique magic.
Wasn’t Eden, the boss of the cigar bang gang, who made Lennok realize the existence of unique magic for the first time here, too?
One of the group of sorcerers who are most actively engaged in war business using their own military force and knowledge.
On the outside, Lennok knew very well that although they were arrogant under the pretext of academic and intellectual exploration, they were no different from the Order League, which entered the central front and was immersed in a fight for power.
Wasn’t the blaver mage’s tower that he had visited before also directly advanced to the front line and engaged in an endless fight?
Until now, I thought it was a power that I didn’t have to worry about, and even if I didn’t pay much attention to it, if the power is comparable to the highest level, I need to check it out and move on.
Thinking so, the people from the Mage Tower had already come to the city to see Lennok’s face.
“…I’ve heard that he’s not an arrogant genius who only believes in his talent and goes wild, but he’s above my expectations.”
The man who had just been threatening Lennok changed his expression in an instant.
“Well, there’s no way a wizard who climbed up from such a rough city could be an ordinary gentleman.”
“….”
“The pagoda lord somehow persuaded me to make an appointment, but I don’t think so. Rather, I tend to agree with what you say.”
The man who emptied all the alcohol Lennok had poured for him laughed.
“Fastness is as you said. At a time like this, it would be difficult to gain meaning even if a talented star participated in the central front… … . Right now, the front lines are just chaos.”
“Right.”
“When some of the church’s apostles started to intervene, the lines got messy. It doesn’t end with a powerful superman, but turns into a monster and goes wild… … Thanks to that, attempts to break through the veil are becoming rarer.”
“….”
An apostle of the Guido Church.
Lennok once confirmed what the monsters who worshiped the end of the open sea as a god and received and used that power would change into in the end.
Just like Walter Martinez did, monsters tens of meters across the battlefield would turn the whole terrain upside down and people would die.
However, I did not expect to hear directly from the officials about the difficult situation on the central front.
“Originally, I should have hidden this story and coaxed it out with nice words…. There’s no need to play useless tricks against a man like you.”
“In the meantime, has the calculation already been completed?”
“If it’s hard to beg, shouldn’t it be good to look good? I just made a wise decision.”
The man shrugged and said, patting the shoulder of a colleague sitting next to him.
“Now that we know that the chances of being persuaded by other magic towers are slim, now it’s our turn to try to impress them. Let’s think comfortably.”
Lennox laughed at his honest feelings.
“I heard that you are good at war business, but the speed at which your brain works is not bad. I like being honest.”
“good. That’s enough.”
The man, who was looking at the bottle with the remaining alcohol in it with regret, answered.
“However, other organizations other than the Mage Tower won’t think much different. know?”
“….”
“You brought it on yourself. because it has been proven A wizard who has already built up a military force comparable to the highest level. Rather, the fact that you don’t know the realm is more attractive.”
The man continued, looking at Lennok, who had his arms folded and his head bowed.
“I bet there are many people who can’t accept that that kind of power is walking around freely without being tied down anywhere. There must be many people who would like to have it. I don’t know how you’ve been managing your reputation until now… … .”
“Know.”
“You know?”
Lennok nodded.
“If I hadn’t thought of that, I wouldn’t have started. but…It is only necessary to raise this name as high as possible even at the cost of such trouble.”
I know now why this happened.
It must be because the countless things that Lennok has done so far have not been done simply in the name of Ban, and also because Lennok has thoroughly controlled his own reputation and status.
It is possible because he has delicately adjusted the reputation of the street and the evaluation of the class with the help of Jenny in the whole process.
Didn’t the series of events that took place right now in the labyrinth of Hanghasa also be decorated and disguised in the name of Evan, not Van?
From then on, he was vaguely aware that he possessed power comparable to that of an 8th level, but that fact was only revealed in Ban’s name.
After all, it is because they understand that in order to gain access to the most intimate secrets that the project and the city council are hiding, a corresponding proof is needed.
Dealing with Madrid Onion and digging through their foundations is just the beginning.
Even if you have direct hostilities with the city council that rules this city, you must uncover the secrets of Alkaid.
After all, if you don’t understand what the name means, you won’t be able to move further from the empty echo of no next.
At Lennok’s unwavering reply, the man was silent for a moment, then nodded.
“You said something wrong…. I’m sure you know a lot better than I do.”
“Thank you for the advice.”
“good. Then let’s go. You drank well.”
The man said that and was about to turn his back, but as if he had suddenly remembered something, he took something out of his arms.
“Oh, because I don’t know. This is a list of the magic towers we have contacted. It would be good to know who is interested in you.”
“….”
Lennok took the list without thinking, looked down all the way, then stopped.
[Sinclair’s 3rd seat of the Mage’s Tower Council]
[Claris Richellen]
The name of the Mage’s Tower and the castle he was most familiar with came into view.
Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 427
