Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 689
The Witch and the Mage Tower (3)
As soon as she heard Lennok’s story, Jenny led the party and moved to a room on the upper floor of the bar.
“I…Didn’t I hear you wrong now?”
Jenny asked, unable to sit properly on the sofa in the spacious room.
“What did you receive from the city government central council? No, was it something that could be exchanged like a gift in the first place?”
“It is literally. I took care of the work entrusted to me by the Senate and received the necessary authority to create the Mage Tower.”
said Lennok, pulling out another cigarette.
“I didn’t tell you because I don’t know how much authority the city can approve, but I don’t know if it’s useful.”
“It’s not at a useful level, half.”
Jenny quickly replied with a puzzled expression.
“All of the conditions and foundations we just contemplated are at a level where we can handle almost all of them with the one authority you just mentioned.”
“….”
“I guess you didn’t even know.”
Hearing Jenny’s words as if he knew that, Lennok nodded his head with a puzzled expression.
“I thought that the authority related to the Mage Tower was managed by the academic world. I heard that an extraterritorial zone could be formed, but I didn’t think I could build a mage tower with that alone.”
“Of course, the conditions necessary for the creation of the Mage Tower are not determined by the city government, but by the academic community…It’s a different story if it’s a super-large city-state the size of the Balkans.”
Tatiana shook her head in disbelief and replied.
“There hasn’t been a single mage tower officially approved for establishment in the Balkans so far. Do you not understand what it means to be the only one in this megalopolis that has been permitted to build a Mage Tower?”
Before Lennoc could answer anything, Jenny immediately continued.
“Regardless of permission from other magic towers or academia, in order to trade magic tools in Balkan, you have to follow the mediation of the approved magic tower.”
“….” “Until now, no Mage Tower had been approved by the Central Council and was not properly managed
, but if a Mage Tower approved by the Council were to be built in this city-”
I fully understood what I saw.
Academic recognition, conditions, environmental conditions, and legitimacy are only secondary issues.
If only the Mage Tower approved by the Central Council could manage the magic tool market in Balkan, whether other Mage Towers acknowledged it or not.
Academia and other Mage Towers will have no choice but to make transactions and continue research through the ‘approved Mage Tower’.
And it is absolutely impossible to give up on a city and market as huge as the Balkans and full of growth potential.
That was what the Senate of the Central Council handed over to Lennok the authority to create the Mage Tower.
“Right. so….”
I thought that the approval of the academic world and the approval of the city were separately required, and it would be institutionally designated.
Does the creation and approval of the Mage Tower mean that superiority and inferiority are overturned according to the logic of power?
And the ironic fact that Lennok’s hand is more powerful because the Balkan city government is the subject.
‘Is that the reason why you entrusted me with the research of the extinction fragments and tried to take the person in charge?’
Somehow, the central council suddenly wanted to offer the position of head of research, but it seemed to be the result of some consideration with the authority to create the Mage Tower.
Maybe the city government wanted to actively allocate necessary research to the magic tower with a direct approval magic tower.
Thinking about that, it is also understandable that he chose Lennok as the right person and handed over the authority to create the Mage Tower using the matter of extinction as a deal.
“I’ve heard that extraterritorial zones can be formed, but…It meant more than city administrative privileges.”
“Oh right. That is very important.”
Jenny nodded her head up and down.
“It is said that the establishment of the Mage Tower and the business conducted there will be exempted from the restrictions and restrictions of the city.”
“….”
“It’s not a matter of prestige or prestige, it’s something that can greatly shake the business system and balance in the city. There’s no way he didn’t know that, but it must have been unprecedented for the Senate to grant permission… … .”
“I heard that someone has been offered several times in the past.”
Lennok answered, straightening the whiskey glass that had fallen.
At the same time as you tap the table with your fingers, the whiskey spilled on the table goes back into the glass as if time were rewinding.
Jordan, who was watching from the side, came over and naturally put the glass away and put down a new one.
Jenny glanced at Lennok and said.
“…Of course, this is only from the point of view of a businessman, and the permission to build the Mage Tower has a special meaning for a wizard. It means that the qualifications to complete and pass on a sect have been verified.”
“hmm.”
“I think Tatiana knows that better than I do. Why don’t you ask me directly?”
Tatiana, who had been silent, slowly drank from her glass and said,
“…Since permission has already been obtained, I will briefly explain the conditions common to other mage towers and the academia. If you are a great wizard who has transcended the hierarchy, you are free to prove the existence of your skills or magic system.”
“….”
“However, in order to be certified by another magic tower, you have to fill the number of high-ranking wizards, and you have to prove your assets and land ownership. You must also have permission to coexist with the city where the mage tower will be built.”
Ownership of property and land ownership of establishment site.
Although it is a bit tricky, it is not impossible to have it equipped if you borrow Jenny’s help.
As soon as Jenny heard what Tatiana said, she immediately pointed out the part that worried her.
“The number of high-ranking mages…I guess so. It’s because I don’t usually call it a mage tower because it’s only half alone.”
“I’m not asking for huge numbers. It’s not that I’m asking you to find a high-ranking magician you don’t belong to, but it’s to see if you have a magic system worthy of succession.”
“I guess so. But the problem is… … .”
Jenny, who glanced at Lennok, muttered quietly.
“That condition itself may be a bit difficult to meet, but….”
“What do you mean?”
Lennok immediately retorted.
“I have at least a few acquaintances I can ask for a favor from.”
“no. It’s not that I don’t have friends.”
Jenny waved her hand.
“A wizard you know. Isn’t Tatyana almost the first? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you get to know a high-ranking wizard like this.”
“I don’t know what you’re looking at me for.”
Lennox snorted lightly.
“Even the wizards I know easily exceed dozens. Among them, considering the wizards who have completed the hierarchy, there are many people who can ask for a favor… … .”
The words that started confidently slowly fade away.
“….”
If you think about it, almost all of the high-ranking wizards Lennok knew were people who had met and fought as enemies.
Otherwise, all of them were already enemies of the Mage Tower or a specific organization.
Cartel’s Oliviera Pandemonium’s Master or Clown Sinclair’s Magic Tower’s Aris.
Other than that, there were only acquaintances who could not enter the Mage Tower because they already belonged somewhere, or who could not even be mentioned as class members in the first place.
It was then that Lennok, realizing that what Jenny said wasn’t entirely wrong, fell silent.
Jenny slightly turned her tail.
“Come to think of it, I don’t think it matters too much. Shall we think about that later?”
“That’s right.”
Tatiana quickly responded to Jenny’s words.
“Because there is no law that the magician you always knew was alive or an ally. Even dead wizards and killed wizards are all wizard acquaintances.”
“that….”
Hagiya Tatiana must have confirmed that Lennok killed Zionis, who rebelled with several mages at the West Continent Branch of the Blaber Mage Tower, so it is not strange to think so.
No, if you think about it, it might not be strange that most people who know Lennok misunderstand that he is a wizard who killed a ‘wizard acquaintance’.
Leaving the troubled Lennok behind, Jenny and Tatiana quickly got back to the main topic.
“For now, let’s quickly conclude the Tatiana issue.”
“yes. The important thing is probably the fact that Van obtained the most difficult and tricky authority… … But this is really unexpected.”
Tatiana tilted her head slightly.
“As far as I know, there are more than 10 Mage Towers that have tried to enter Balkan. But none have passed the House of Representatives, let alone the Senate. But to think that a wizard with no enemies got permission… … It’s practically pushing your back.”
“…The Central Council wants Ban to build a mage tower?”
Tatiana shook her head at Jenny’s question.
“Academic conferences and information exchanges are active between Magic Towers, and joint research and auction transactions occur frequently. That’s why it’s so difficult to build a mage tower in a city without giving extraterritorial authority. The things you handle are too dangerous.”
Instead, the Mage Tower nurtures talents brought in from the city and nurtures them into full-fledged wizards, continuously supplying them to the city.
In effect, the Mage Tower replaces the role of an educational institution for training magicians inside the city.
This is how the mage tower, which has settled in the city and acquired extraterritorial authority, generally coexists with the city.
“That’s why there are many cases where the magic handled by the magic tower is closely related to the environment or living area of the city. Aren’t we different?”
The West Continent branch of the Blaver Mage Tower, which handles heat-related magic, was located in the middle of a volcanic area.
Because that itself benefits both the city and the residents near the magic tower and the volcanic area.
But on the other hand, the fact that the Central Council granted Lennok permission for the Mage Tower was probably because he was convinced that Lennok’s magic would help the city.
“Well, I said this and that, but in fact, there is only one most important fact.”
Tatiana looked at Lennok and put down her drink.
“Ban, do you intend to build a mage tower and become the owner of the tower?”
“…What do you mean?”
“Becoming a transcendent wizard and passing on magic by building a mage tower are two different things. There are not a few people who are not interested in teaching or leaving a legacy.”
“…“
Apart from my circumstances, if you don’t want it, there won’t be any need to discuss this in the first place.”
Tatiana’s red eyes calmed down.
“Establishing a mage tower is not something that can be done with vague thoughts or hearts.”
“…I don’t have the right sense of responsibility or mission.”
Lennok, who had been silent, laughed.
“I do it because I can. I want to do it, so I just do it. If you don’t think that’s right, you’d better run away from your pursuers right now.”
“….”
Tatiana’s thoughtful appearance after hearing Lenok’s answer.
Jenny asked as if she had suddenly remembered the two of them.
“Then, if you were to build a mage tower, what would you name it?”
“…well. I’ve never thought about it, so I don’t know… … .”
All of Lennok’s unique and common magics were already named seasonal.
It’s just that Lennok took it at will, changed it, researched it, and used it.
If, for the purpose of succession, a magic system was formed and an order that encompassed the lineage was established.
What should Lennox name the ivory tower?
While I was immersed in my thoughts, the Brain Spirit reacted to those words in my arms.
[Wriggling.]
“….”
While Lennok single-handedly suppressed the spirit’s wish, Tatiana seemed to have made up her mind.
“Can you bring me one small jenny knife?”
“knife?”
“I think I should show you what I brought out of the Mage Tower. Let me show you that, and then I’ll talk about it again.”
“…Did you run away with the treasure from the Magic Tower?”
“It is not a treasure.”
Tatiana said, slowly gripping the knife Jenny had picked up.
“It’s a demon that symbolizes the legitimacy of the Mage Tower, and a seal that proves the genealogy of tradition just by its existence.”
“If it’s a seal, then I can’t believe it….”
The moment Jenny realized the meaning, her complexion changed to contemplation.
Tatiana placed the knife over the back of her hand.
“I’ll show. The phoenix hall of the Blaber Magic Tower.”
Jenny tilted her head at that unfamiliar word, and Lennok narrowed his brow slightly.
Tatiana, who was looking around nervously, quickly spoke to Lennok.
“Can you block the presence so that magic doesn’t leak around Ban?”
“…I will.”
Jenny’s bar didn’t have strict barriers or security as various supermen and sorcerers came and went.
In the first place, there is no reason to worry about safety issues as the supermen of the Antares mercenaries and distribution companies come and go other than Lenok.
At the same time as Lennok put up a simple curtain to block the presence and reaction of the surroundings, Tatiana lowered the knife onto the back of her hand.
Red blood dripped down the back of his hand and formed a circular magic circle under his feet.
“Blood magic?”
Tatiana nodded.
“Similar but different. It would be correct to think that it is the management authority given to the rosary.”
Roaring!!
Sparks rose above the magic circle drawn with blood as a medium, and it turned into a huge gate of flame right in front of Tatiana’s eyes.
Even standing close to it, I don’t feel much heat.
It must be because this flame door itself is a conceptual image made purely of Tatiana’s will and blood.
Lennok watched with interest from the side.
“It’s not magic or magic. Rather, it seems to be closer to a superpower that relies on mental power.”
“This is the unique management authority granted only to the five rosary beads of the Mage Tower.”
Tatiana answered with a slightly subdued expression.
“A supernormal ability to freely enter and exit objects designated as property of the Tower. I forcibly twisted it on my side and changed it so that only I could touch certain things.”
“It’s a preservation method that transcends space….”
After the mage tower is created, is it possible to create such management authority separately?
The moment when Lennok showed interest in the method and Tatiana casually put her hand on the other side of the door.
[It took longer than I thought.]
A whisper came from beyond the door.
[I thought I would definitely touch it someday, but since I haven’t seen it, my patience has increased a lot. Tatiana.]
“Melter…!!”
[Let’s talk slowly while looking at her face for now.]
Tatiana’s face hardened at the same time as the size of her thoughts exploded and swallowed her.
Lennok’s complexion hardened at the appearance of a huge magic circle that filled the floor of the bar in an instant.
‘This level of suspicion from a distance without any warning… … !’
Kiyiing!!!
A moment when even Tatiana herself stumbled on the door as if she hadn’t expected it.
Lennok, too, instead of watching stupidly, started interfering with his mana right away.
However, by the time the magic circle appeared in a completed state, it was as if the power had already been transmitted as a result.
The red light that engulfed Tatiana’s body with its powerful gravitational force instantly skips space and disappears beyond the bar.
A dazzling burst of red light, as if blinding her eyes, engulfed her body in an instant.
bang!!
The shape of a magic circle that swallows only Tatiana in an instant and disappears.
Jenny turned to Lennok with a contemplative face.
“Half this…!!”
“Know. I’m already ready and waiting for you over there.”
If the intention that emerged from the other side of the door had attempted to attack Tatiana or had taken the form of a spell, Lennok would have reacted immediately as well.
However, the intention felt in the magic circle created by Tatiana was far from a threat or an attack.
A willingness close to transmission or summoning. That’s why Lennok also thought that the intention was intended by Tatiana to summon the phoenix, so his reaction was delayed.
“By using the method of summoning the Phoenix Hall in reverse, they forcibly identified Tatiana’s location and reverse-summoned it.”
Lennok’s eyes shone coldly.
“The authority to reverse summon Tatiana as soon as she recognizes Tatiana’s location without any conditions. If you can do something like this, it must be only beads from the same Mage Tower.”
“…The War Mages of the Blaver Magic Tower have already arrived in Balkan?”
Realizing the meaning of the words, Jenny quickly took out her cell phone, and
Lennok picked up his coat and immediately moved on.
“What are you going to do?”
“I got my hands on it at the last minute. It won’t be too late.”
If Lennok had forcibly canceled the summoning on the spot, it would have dealt a blow to Tatiana, the subject of the reverse summoning.
So, instead of canceling the summoning itself, Lennok succeeded in forcibly distorting the location coordinates by intervening in the Mage Tower’s own authority.
Originally, Tatiana’s position, which would have been summoned beside the same rosary, was twisted and twisted with transcendent thoughts.
The necessary coordinates were secured the moment Tatiana disappeared.
Saying that, Lennok put on his cane and immediately left the tavern.
“It’s not far. We enter the chase immediately.”
