Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine
Episode 759 One-person Play (11)
Belver’s reply that he made a profit from investment using information related to the Mage Tower.
Everyone said nothing and glanced at Lennok, and Belver, too, sensed the situation belatedly and stuttered.
“What is it? Why is the atmosphere… … What did I say wrong?”
Lennok, who looked at Belver as if he was having fun, asked.
“Have you ever sent a list of partner businesses to the Jenny Antares office?”
“no.”
Jenny sighed and shook her head.
“It seems that some of the businesses that have been allowed to enter have arbitrarily requested security. I should have paid attention to the information crackdown, but I made a mistake.”
“You’re saying that you didn’t make a profit by stealing information from the Mage Tower yourself.”
What is the meaning of receiving a security request from the office when this side has never handed over the list of cooperative businesses to the office?
Among the research institutes and magic towers scheduled to enter the Magic Tower, Lennok secretly requested a request for security.
He probably tried it because he didn’t know the relationship between the Antares mercenaries and Lennok.
“Even so, this is obviously a mistake on our part. As a member of the office, I have no face.”
Felix said to Lennok with a heavy expression.
Power was strong in the hand of the bird-headed giant holding Belver’s shoulder with one arm.
“I apologize myself. I will make sure to hold Belver himself accountable for this.”
It was only then that Belver realized what the problem was and murmured.
“Huh? This is the part that will become a problem due to the leakage of internal information… … ?
So you thought it wouldn’t be?
Lennok looked around and smiled as Jenny tugged at Belver’s ear in amazement.
“There are many eyes. Shall we move and talk?”
Afterwards, the party immediately moved to a break room that was not yet open.
While Felix stood blocking the door, blocking out sounds and signs, Tatiana put on a simple magic curtain.
Lennok, lost in thought, turned his gaze to Jenny.
“jenny. Get the list of businesses that have requested security from the mercenaries and review it right now.”
“It’s not difficult, but suddenly why?”
“What do you think is the reason for requesting a separate security guard even though we promised to open a branch inside the Magic Tower?”
Realizing Lennok’s words belatedly, Jenny grinned.
“Aha, is there something you want to handle secretly while hiding it from us?”
“In addition to doing business inside the Magic Tower, there is a possibility that they are hungry for backdoor dealings throughout the shadowy world.”
“good. I’ll find out right away.”
Jenny opened her laptop on the spot, quickly checked the database, and nodded.
“that’s right. These bastards cheated on the number of imports. The transaction schedule submitted to the office does not fit our side.”
What kind of crazy freelancer in Area 49 will try to break into the Mage’s Tower and steal items or harm the officials?
At the time the magic tower’s domain was declared, the space was no different from Lennok’s courtyard.
In such a place, it is awkward to ask for security separately out of fear of possible danger.
Lennock had read that behind Belver’s mistake, some businesses were already trying to get their back pockets.
“I’ll pick it up right away. I’m just going to take this as evidence and cut it all out, doesn’t it matter?”
Jenny looked down at Belver, who knelt down with a strange gaze.
“Anyway, I didn’t expect to find out about this thanks to this idiot. Is there any use for an idiot who doesn’t even know what insider trading is?”
“Uh, did what I did help a little?”
Belver’s expression, which had been watching with a downcast expression, instantly turned bright.
“Hmmmm that…know? That I never meant to eat half of it. I’m stupid, but I’m not crazy.”
“….”
“I want my sincerity to be conveyed. I’m really sorry. Anything you want-”
“Belver. Be quiet.”
Lennok grinned as Felix squeezed Belver’s shoulders again with a weary expression on his face.
“If I had the guts to do so, it wouldn’t have ended in such a fuss. Know.”
“Well then….”
Just before Felix raised his voice, Lennok pointed to Belver’s arms and asked.
“Instead, we will confiscate all of the profits you collected from this incident, right?”
“What?!”
Leaving Belver bewildered, Lennok turned his gaze to Jenny.
“Didn’t you say you needed cash to expand the facilities in the tower?”
“Yes, I understand.”
Jenny, who immediately understood Lennok’s words, grinned.
“You mean to empty the pockets of this crazy stockbroker to make up for it?”
“What is…What are you trying to do to me!!”
“What are you doing? Felix!”
Jenny beckoned, and Felix held Belver’s arms tightly as if he had been waiting for them, and tied them up.
snap!!
As he turned Belver’s body over and robbed him, his cell phone, wallet, and unknown notebook fell out.
“Ouch!!”
Giving her cell phone and wallet, Jenny looked at Belver, who was hanging upside down, and said curtly.
“Call the account password. Because we’re going to confiscate all the profits we’ve made in the past three days.”
“It can’t be!! How long has it been since you made money like this? … !!!”
“Give up! you have no talent for that I’d rather win by luck when I go to a gambling house, and I’m going to make an alternative investment with that low-quality perspective!”
“That….”
Belver’s sullen expression, as if shocked by Jenny’s direct advice.
It is a reaction so weak that it is unbelievable that he is working as a mercenary. Have you been sincere in your investment?
After receiving the password for a while and looking at the account details, Jenny picked up an old notebook that had fallen beside her.
“This is enough to cover the amount we need right now. What else is this notebook?”
“Oh, no. that…!!”
Turning the pages of the notebook, Jenny saw what was written in it and stuck her tongue out as if she was full of energy.
“and…”
“What the hell is that?”
Tatiana looked into it, unable to contain her curiosity, and fell silent.
Felix also glanced at the contents of the notebook and just shook his head.
In response to that unusual reaction, Lennok also checked the contents of the notebook next to them.
“…calendar? Did you record the rise and fall of stock prices by date?”
“No, that’s not it. Look at this.”
Jenny turned over the next page and said.
“This bastard is predicting the ups and downs of the stock price by weaving it with feng shui around the Balkans.”
“….”
Write down the weather in the Balkans, the direction of the place where you started investing, and all kinds of mysterious variables.
He draws a graph according to his wishes by predicting the high and low of his luck, good days and bad days.
As Lennok looked at it and was speechless, Belver hung upside down and shrugged his shoulders indignantly.
Jenny tapped the notebook against Belver’s forehead.
“Belver, are you a shaman? Or do you have a knack for Onmyoji?”
“Is it okay to peek at my investment technique like that!! give it back!!”
“…I don’t call this an investment technique, Belver. It’s just superstition. It’s just that it’s no different from a pseudonym.”
“It can’t be! Big data doesn’t lie. With that said, you intend to copy my technique?!”
“No that…done.”
Jenny sighed deeply and placed the notebook in Belver’s mouth.
“I will return this. No matter how I look at it, it seems useless.”
“…!!”
The appearance of Belver holding the notebook tightly in his mouth, as if he was not going to let go of it, even though he was protesting.
Now, the fact that he is slowly showing this kind of figure in the middle of the tower is to the point of worrying.
With a sigh, Felix, who lifted Belver, turned to Lennox and said,
“Just in case you don’t know, I’ll review the contents of the notebook and report it within today. You really have no face.”
“No, just as Jenny said she needed cash, I’ll take care of it with that amount.”
As Lennok said, he looked at the sports car Belver had parked outside the tower.
“Looks like it just came out of the factory, but if I refund it right away, won’t it somehow turn into money?”
“I should hope so.”
Felix smiled bitterly and left the magic tower with the bellver and disappeared.
Given the circumstances, we may not see Belver for a while.
But Lennok wasn’t really that angry with Belver.
[Huh, it’s been resolved quite well.]
A spirit had been breathing a sigh of relief in Lennok’s arms since earlier.
[It would be difficult if there were more investors who preoccupied inside information and secretly invested. It’s fortunate that the competitor was eliminated at this point.]
“….”
It turns out that Darby was also secretly inflating Lennok’s account using information inside the Mage Tower.
Darby, as if noticing Lennok’s careless gaze, proudly raised her front paw in her arms.
[Ah Master. Do not worry. Unlike that clumsy organism, I will never get it!]
“…do it in moderation Did you understand?”
I want to pay more attention to the management of the Mage Tower, but I’m planning on getting ready to leave, so I don’t have enough time.
There were a few things left to do with different identities in order to tour other cities as scheduled.
The moment Lennok thought so and turned around, he received a message from Dylan.
[half. It’s about the Guardian Spirit, can you come down for a moment?]
* * *
“It’s really dangerous now.”
The mage tower underground cavity is now taking a plausible shape.
Dylan, beside him, said with a serious look about Lennok, who had been summoned.
“Can you hear me?”
“I am listening.”
“It’s really breathtaking. The budget set up here is already the limit!”
“What is the limit?”
“That’s what this glutton eats!”
Dylan shouted, pointing at the giant egg rolling around in front of him.
(Rolling around)
The appearance of an egg that is lazily rolling around in the cavity as it was at the beginning of the crack in the shell.
“I don’t know if it’s a guardian deity or a guardian spirit beast, but that guy should wake up and do something productive. What do you do!!”
“Telling me wouldn’t mean anything….”
As Lennok said that, he looked at the egg of the Guardian Spirit with a confused expression.
Certainly, considering the amount of food Al had eaten, the mercenaries in charge of managing it would feel burdened. But-
“Wasn’t the Guardian Spirit’s meal expenses paid for by this side in the first place?”
“No, money is not the problem, but money is.”
“What nonsense is that?”
“This guy’s favorite snacks are fixed, so the related ingredients in the area are completely out of stock.”
“….”
“Thanks to that, the price has skyrocketed, and now even Jenny’s budget can’t cover it. But if you give me anything, I spit it out.”
“hmm….”
After belatedly understanding Dylan’s words, Lennok nodded.
“So, please make the Guardian Spirit stop eating unbalanced?”
“I don’t even want to go there. Just let me know what you want to eat, huh?”
Dylan sighed and shook his head, and Lennok looked up.
said Lennok, who was lost in thought.
“Since the existence of the guardian spirit beast itself was not assumed in the first place, there is no need to find it if it refuses to feed itself.”
“uh?”
(Shuddenly)
Not only Dylan, but also Al, who was rolling around comfortably over there, trembled at those words.
Lennok looked at him with his arms crossed and murmured.
“If it’s a spiritual beast derived from me, I can’t rule out the danger. Watch for a few days and go in the direction of confirming your independence.”
At Lennok’s words that he would starve himself and follow the trend, Al hurriedly rolled over and rubbed his body against Lennok’s shoulder.
It was as if he was belatedly showing Lennok’s notice and hurriedly acting cute.
Dylan hesitated, as if he was uncomfortable with Lennox’s words.
“No over there…I didn’t mean to say that I couldn’t eat snacks. Can’t you think again… … ?”
“What do you mean?”
“He covers this and that and has a picky appetite, but he’s not a bad guy.”
said Dylan, who cleared his throat.
“Still, if we’re working in the main hall, they’ll put on a rag and help us clean up.”
“….”
“I don’t know if it’s because of the perception that it’s my own home, but I’m interested in the interior and facilities of the Magic Tower. So-”
“Have you grown fond of managing Young-soo?”
“…Something like that.”
Al trembled as if he was slightly moved by Dylan’s words, but nevertheless, he did not stop rubbing against Lennok.
“hmm….”
Looking at the egg of such a guardian spirit, Lennok was immersed in agony.
An intelligence high enough to understand exactly who is feeding now.
Even so, it was such an incomprehensible behavior that it did not come out of the egg and lingered. However
, does that mean that
her temper is not bad enough to get along well with those who manage her, and that she is doing her best to the extent that she realizes that she is a guardian spirit beast and pays attention to her?
In the meantime, if the mercenaries were affectionate, it seems that they behaved kindly in their own way.
It was absurd to think about Al like this, but Lennok decided to find a solution anyway, as Dylan said.
“Bit someone in the main hall. Don’t let them come this way.”
“Did you all hear? Everyone wait outside the magic tower from now on!!”
Dylan and other mercenaries quickly accepted Lennok’s words and guided the people outside, leaving Lennok and the Guardian Spirit Beast alone in the vast cavity.
(Shudder)
The egg of the guardian spirit tree standing upright in front of Lennok and trembling.
He hasn’t come out of his shell yet, but he’s very expressive.
However, Lennok looked at the scenery of the Mage Tower in silence instead of immediately using his hand against the Guardian Spirit.
A calm space with black and blue light.
Warm, golden lanterns float, illuminating the ceiling, and countless documents and construction equipment that have not yet been tidied are piled up around.
The shape of golden concentric circles that wrap around the entire ceiling of the main hall like a ring and spread softly.
Watching the ripples ripple in the air, Lenok slowly bent down and touched the ground with one hand.
Lennok, who swept across the smooth marble floor, raised his mana and opened his mouth.
“When I asked Chen to build the Magic Tower, I told him to use only the highest-quality building materials capable of resonating with magic power.”
Woooooo!!!
The curtain of blue light that rose from Lennok’s center instantly coiled around the main hall and rotated, slowly melting and disappearing.
It didn’t end at once, but one after another, they raised their mana, spread the curtain, and melted it between the building materials of the mage tower.
A barrier technique inherited directly from Jindun.
Among them, Lenok selects only the strongest and heaviest barriers that can be used right away, sings them, and paints them on the mage tower.
“I can’t help it with barrier art that requires a special catalyst, but after selecting and spreading several barriers that specify the location-”
Aaaaaaa!!!
A fantasy in which huge ripples colored in gold surround the magic tower and soar up into the sky.
“A specific coordinate itself can be established as an inviolable sphere.”
Lennok lowered his hand and muttered as he slowly turned around.
“It is not difficult. The meaning of the Ouroboros magic system in the area of the tower will be the highest priority for all values.”
Lennok turned his gaze to Al, who was still standing erect in the center of the main hall.
“That’s why I still have no idea how your presence will work in this tower.”
(….)
“Unless you know that you are a being born purely from my magic system, it is because the other lineage was mixed a little from birth.”
A domain declared at the same time as the mage tower was created. The existence of a guardian spirit beast with intelligence born at the center of that realm.
However, the foundation of the Guardian Spirit was not purely the power derived from Lennok’s will and magic system.
The spirit of Blaver’s 7th Mage Tower Master and the Phoenix Hall in the form of a phoenix.
It is an unmistakable fact that the will that was used as the engine for building the tower system became the foundation of the Guardian Spirit.
However, Lennok does not know how the existence that was created by mixing the Ouroboros magic system with the thoughts of other beings will hatch.
That’s why, even after recognizing the existence of the Guardian Spirit, Lennok managed it by feeding it moderately instead of taking special measures.
“To be honest, I don’t care what food you want. Dylan said he’s having trouble hauling snacks, but it’s not difficult to find a few of your favorite snacks if you’re determined and looking for a route.”
(Rolling around)
Lennok’s words were softer than expected, and the guardian spirits began to shake their bodies from side to side as if they were excited in their own way.
However, Lennok shook his head even while looking at such a guardian spirit.
“But I need to find out why you are so greedy and yet picky about your appetite.”
(Awkwardly)
Lennok said over the startled, trembling egg.
“At first, I thought it was the influence of Ouroboros and left it alone, but if it was purely because of that, I wouldn’t be picky about it.”
The Ouroboros magic system used by Lennok is the power to forcibly disassemble and interpret all existing spells and laws.
If the guardian spirits were purely beings born there, it wouldn’t be strange if they ate everything given to them without covering it.
That’s why Lennok tried to feed the Guardian Spirit Beast here and there and investigate its reaction.
It was intended to confirm the orientation of the Guardian Spirit.
(Little rattle)
The appearance of Al who understood Lennok’s words and began to tremble on the spot.
It was as if he was terrified of what Lennok would try to feed him from now on.
[Huh, it should have been like that a long time ago.]
Darby jumped out of Lennok’s arms and got on top of the eggshell with a proud expression.
(…!!)
Belatedly aware of Darby’s existence, the Guardian Spirit jumped up on the spot and turned around.
said Darby triumphantly, balancing on her five tails on the spinning eggshell.
[If you knew how blessed you were born, wouldn’t you have to explain what you can do right now?]
(…?!?!)
[You are good at fighting, you can shield, you can carry it. This should come out!]
Darby said step by step to Al, who was confused and didn’t know why.
[Ah, but you can’t manipulate cyber space. It already has an expert.]
“….”
Darby suddenly catches eggs and trains them one by one.
Seeing that he was pouring out words, it seemed that he had been preparing himself.
Lennok, who was looking at Darby with an absurd expression, shook his head and took out several items from his arms.
Several advanced catalysts used in elixir crafting.
A medicinal herb or edible mushroom used in the preparation of Lennok’s tobacco.
Potions or elixirs sold at high prices on the market.
A snack exclusively for spirits given to undergraduate students during the raid on the Goddess of God.
A one-time consumable artifact that recently came in the name of the Mage Tower, but came in the name of Lennok.
Just taking out the items stored under the shrinking magic and arranging them in a row would fill one wall of the main hall.
(…!!!) While
the Guardian Spirit, who was perplexed by the presence of Darby on top of the shell, belatedly jumped up and down as if excited to see all the things Lenok had spread out.
Lennok slowly warmed up and straightened his back.
“If you don’t eat snacks or food, let’s experiment with a little special food from now on. Are you ready?”
In Lennok’s hand, who turned toward the Guardian Spirit Tree, he held a diluted elixir that glowed golden.
