Drug-Eating Genius Mage Chapter 835

Genius Magician Who Takes Medicine

Episode 835 Handover (3)

“It’s Bylon Research Institute… Bylon…”

It seems clear that the strangely familiar name was taken from Lennok’s other identity.

The problem is that Lennok has never heard anything about the establishment of such a research institute.

Considering that there was no word before leaving for Yorta, there is a high possibility that the matter was finalized during the visit to the military town.

“Do you know where the lab is?”

“Oh no.”

The woman shook her head in embarrassment at Lennok’s calm words.

“I just heard this in passing… so I haven’t looked into it in detail.”

“….”

After all, it would be fastest to have Dabi gather information separately.

It was clear that there was a need to at least check the purpose and direction of the research institute.

Lennok, who came to a conclusion in an instant, smiled awkwardly and lowered his head towards the woman.

“Oh, I’m sorry. This is my first time hearing about the Bylon Institute. “If you don’t mind, may I ask you to explain?”

He must be a person with a great interest in public magic, as he is absorbed in operating a learning device in the middle of the street.

As expected, perhaps because she seemed interested in the terminal, the woman relaxed her guard and answered.

“It’s a learning device that allows non-wizards to use magic. From what you’re saying, it sounds like you’re interested in Professor Evan Bylan-”

“Yes. “They said he was a researcher with a very good personality.”

“Great personality…?”

The woman, who was confused as if this was the first time she had heard this, soon fixed the device.

“This learning device is not an artifact with built-in magic, but a medium that induces the user’s magic power. “I’m the one using magic, and this equipment only helps me do that.”

The woman showed Lennok a demonstration of using common magic along with a brief explanation.

“It’s really amazing.”

Lennok clapped his hands together and nodded.

The woman said as she sat down again with an embarrassed expression.

“It is said that derivative research on common magic is still actively conducted. “Some say that it is used favorably by wizards because it is excellent for assisting in the fine manipulation of magical power.”

“okay.”

“Most production plants in the Balkans are mass producing this product, and I only got it a few days ago, so you can see how enthusiastic the response is, right?”

Perhaps because of Lennok’s enthusiastic response, the woman’s explanation also became a little kinder.

“I hope new public magic will be distributed quickly. “I’m sure they are preparing an update, but I don’t know when they plan to announce it.”

“Um…”

I couldn’t tell you that, even though I hadn’t even touched it in weeks, let alone prepared it.

“Even great researchers have various circumstances.”

Lennok slightly looked away and answered.

“Of course, there are not many things that are impossible for such an outstanding scholar, but it may be better not to expect anything for the time being.”

“Ah yes. “It seems like you really like Professor Bylon…”

“Hmm.”

Lennoc cleared his throat with an embarrassed expression as the woman muttered something as if it were absurd.

As I was conversing with someone I didn’t know, I guess my true feelings inadvertently came out.

While trying to ignore Dabi’s strange gaze in her arms, the woman muttered while tapping on the learning device.

“It’s okay if I’m late, so I’d like you to tell me what kind of magic you plan to develop and distribute…” “…

”

The woman seemed to have already used the learning device and fell in love with the feeling of using magic on her own.

People who are born with magical powers but do not have the talent to manipulate them.

From their perspective, the sense of handling magical power is clearly a desire that goes beyond fun or interest.

Of course, Lennok also thought about that and distributed common magic, but the reaction seemed to be much stronger than expected.

“Even if you’re not Professor Bylon, new magic will be developed once research on the common magic system is completed. “Wouldn’t all citizens be wizards by then?”

“…I hope so.”

Lennok couldn’t bear to agree with those words and smiled bitterly.

Even he who created the public magic system himself did not publish his thesis with any certainty about such a future.

What Lennoc published as his third paper was an achievement that was only a vague possibility.

It may be possible someday, but it is just something that we cannot be sure of when it will come true.

Rather, when we are dreaming of a vaguely hopeful future like now, this may be the time when this public magic is most highly regarded.

But instead of explaining the fact, Lennok nodded and stood up.

“Thank you for your kind explanation. “I need to go back and try using the learning device.”

“Oh, then…”

The woman hesitated slightly at those words and then asked Lennok.

“I’m thinking of going to an academy that teaches public magic from now on. Would you like to go there?”

“…You mean the academy?”

“yes. “There is an academy that teaches how to use common magic for people who have purchased a learning device.”

“….”

“It’s the student recruitment period, so there are benefits to both you and me if you get introduced, so if you have any thoughts….”

“No.”

Lennok answered, interrupting the woman.

“It’s better not to go to the academy.”

“…yes?”

“The common magic built into the learning device is a basic magic manipulation technique that is completed by itself and does not require mastery or practice. “In order to accommodate the capacity of a device that can be mass-produced, the magic system has been simplified as much as possible, so there is no room for improvement.”

Lennok explained, looking at the terminal the woman was holding.

“If you study combinations and tricks after the new magic is updated, going to the academy and practicing common magic now won’t mean much.”

“Hey, you didn’t say that you recently purchased a learning device-”

“Actually, if I think about it now, it would have been better to increase the number and performance of built-in magic even if it means giving up on mass production. Because time was so tight, I had no choice….”

“….”

“No, but I still regret it a little because I think it would have been better to focus on perfection.”

Lennok, who had been muttering to himself while lost in thought, came to his senses belatedly and looked back at the woman.

“sorry. “How much did we talk about?”

“Oh no…”

The woman, who had been looking at Lennok with a friendly gaze just a moment ago, suddenly took a step back.

He quickly grabs the learning device and walks away from Lennok.

“I have urgent business to attend to, so I’ll just leave…!!”

“…ah.”

Lennok smiled bitterly as he looked at the back of the woman who disappeared across the road in an instant.

“Well, if you don’t want to follow me to the academy, it might be better this way.”

Dabi, who was watching in his arms, asked as if he was dumbfounded.

[Did you answer that way knowing why the organism asked you to go with it?]

“…Not really, but it was also because there was no need to actually go to the academy.”

Three papers published under the identity of Evan Bylan.

The technologies and theories spread to the Balkans do not only positively change cities.

Some people abuse Lennok’s research results or defraud people of their money.

The thriving business of public magic schools is probably one of those examples.

“Contact the dean and ask about regulations for derivative businesses other than research. “People who buy learning devices won’t have to waste their time.”

Is there another contradiction like this in going to an academy again to learn equipment made for learning common magic?

Coincidentally, related news was also being reported on the electronic bulletin board of a nearby building.

[The news is that the distribution rate of public magic learning devices has reached close to 30%.] [

With the supply stabilizing to some extent, the soaring prices of used goods are expected to stabilize…] [

The crime rate increased in the outskirts while black market transactions were prevalent. It is also expected to decline.]

“….”

[However, there are voices of concern that no significant results have yet been achieved despite active derivative research on public magic] [

As a considerable amount of budget has been invested, Negative opinions are coming out. We will send you interviews with experts.]

Chiik!!

The screen showing the announcer changed, and the old professor and the nervous wizard researchers passed by one by one.

=There have been no visible results at all since the start of the research.

=Some departments concluded that independent expansion of the common magic system would be difficult.

=It is difficult to compare each magic because its structure and expression method are different. If we do not increase the comparison group through additional updates…

=Professor Bylon must be brought in. We need more detailed advice on how the magic system was developed.

“….”

Lennok’s expression changed slightly as he watched the news passing by with his arms crossed.

‘There’s no mention of Bylon Labs at all.’

Judging from the conversation I had with the woman earlier, it is clear that the existence of the research institute itself is widely known to citizens.

Nevertheless, there is no mention of the research institute through experts or news.

If you feel like there is some hidden secret in this subtle sense of discomfort, is it simply your mood?

‘If you think about it, there have been rumors circulating among city council officials for a long time that Evan Bylan was not the same person…’

Perhaps the existence of the Bylan Institute itself was established at a time and cause that was completely unrelated to Evan Bylan. Isn’t it true?

And if so, why did they bother to sell the name and establish a research center when it was obvious that Evan would find out?

While Lennok tilted his head, thinking that he would have to visit the research institute in person sometime soon, other people who were watching the news next to him began to grumble.

“In the end, you wouldn’t know anything without Professor Bylon. Why is your excuse so long?”

“I want to try a new common magic quickly. “The magic built into the learning device alone is not enough.”

“It would be nice if they could at least release the barrier or notification magic quickly. “When is the fourth magic update?”

Even as they complain, each of them is holding a learning device made by Lennok in their hands.

People who carry learning devices rather than cell phones and are devoted to manipulating magical power and practicing magic.

“….”

Standing in the middle of a busy street, I pick up the information they give out one by one.

In an abandoned newspaper, there is a bill restricting the use of public magic in public places, and

on a billboard on the wall, there is an advertisement about where public magic can be used.

On the screen, experts in each field appear and talk non-stop about the third paper.

As if they expect public magic to completely change this city, they talk about vague imaginations as if they can be realized right away and try to turn them into money.

Even at this very moment, all kinds of engineers and researchers, regardless of whether they are in the sun or in the shade, are probably trying to somehow use common magic to their liking.

Perhaps in the process, the city’s research infrastructure and human resources will improve dramatically, and Balkan’s technological capabilities may also develop significantly.

However, the reason Lennok distributed public magic and made it possible to use magic was not only for macroscopic development or common benefit.

[…Master?] May

all those who have dabbled in public magic admire, pay attention to, envy and aspire to Lennok’s talent.

I hope you will continue to care and show interest in Lennok and trust his capabilities without any doubt.

To become a being who fulfills the desires and wishes of others and even make those wishes your own.

May joy turn into trust, trust turn into hope, and hope turn into faith.

It was also to find out whether the belief created in that way was meaningful to oneself.

But now that I have returned from seeing the leader’s memories in Yorta-

“Yes.”

Lennok, who had been standing among the crowd for a while looking at the sky, chuckled.

“After all, that’s not my way.”

Reaping fruition through the faith and beliefs of others is not Lennok’s way.

It was not a search for answers, but a path to becoming a god, a destination that could only be reached by giving up everything else.

The ending that everyone feared had not yet arrived, and almost a fleeting moment remained in this world.

Although he still doesn’t know what ‘salvation’ the cult leader chose, Lennok still holds on to himself.

That alone was enough for now.

Afterwards, Lennok visited the laboratory with ingredients purchased at the supermarket.

Dabi asked as Lennok turned on the light with fresh celery he had purchased for the first time in a long time in his mouth.

[I think it would be good to rest a little more, but are you already going back to work?]

“Because I felt something in Yorta. “I have something I need to inspect right away to check on the lab’s work.”

Upon verifying the magical power pattern and entering, the research equipment turns on with strange resonance sounds coming from all directions.

Wow!!

“We must refrain from using the cult leader’s power or legacy from now on. “That’s why I learned the Avatar technique.”

As Lennok said that, he took out a new celery and asked.

Although it had no taste at all after several improvements, it was still edible to Lennok’s taste buds who were accustomed to all kinds of tobacco and drugs.

“Dorae couldn’t remember Gujung Dorae properly even when he was fighting with me. That may be because the essence of Gujungdorae is that of a religious leader.”

[….]

“I guess I should investigate other secrets of Gujungdorae based on the premise of acquiring skills through incarnation.”

Lennok stood in front of the workbench, leaving behind the equipment that was vibrating in all directions and flashing blue magic light, and held out his hand.

After lightly cutting your finger with a light cutting spell to draw blood, immediately put it in a test tube and run it through the equipment.

The research equipment slowly rotated and scanned the test tube containing Lennok’s blood and displayed the results on the screen.

[ERROR CODE 992. Unable to measure horsepower.]

[ERROR CODE 145. Unable to observe horsepower pattern.]

[ERROR CODE 31. System estimation failure.]

[ERROR CODE 296. Target designation failure.]

[ERROR CODE 439. Blood analysis failure. .]

As if it were obvious, the result window appears with most data values displayed as failure or impossible.

However, Lennok skillfully selected only the necessary data and listed it again.

Although it is completely impossible to analyze or measure Lennok’s magic power or blood with such research equipment, it does not mean that there is no information that can be found.

Even if it is tangible or intangible data that cannot be quantified, Lennok can read the cross-section of magic particles or structural design when he sees it in person.

This is because the tendency itself can be read among irregular graphs and data derived based on microscopic analysis.

The problem actually lay elsewhere.

[Unable to analyze. Presumed to be the blood of an extinct demonic beast or ancient species.]

[A level 1AA+4 rare analyte has been confirmed.]

[Would you like to transmit the data to a nearby laboratory?]

Dabi read the results displayed on the screen of the research equipment. He asked with an expression of exasperation.

[I don’t think it can even be read as the magic power of the human race anymore?]

“I guessed, but the flow of magic power has changed again…”

After using the Gwangramuhae Palace to accept the magic power of the open sea, Lennok’s magic power and presence change little by little.

After using the realm against the Ten Apostles Amrita in the Far East Branch, Lennok was the first to find out about it during the interim settlement with Pandemonium.

Even now, when I used the power of the realm for the second time, I received similar results.

Rather than being human, they are degenerating into something more similar to a monster or an incomprehensible ancient species.

From the perspective of Lennok, who freely manipulates magic patterns, it is convenient that he can hide it at any time and that analysis becomes impossible, but it is clear that it is not a positive sign.

After that, Lennok began checking his body in real time using various equipment located in the lab.

Weeeeeee!!

Test tubes containing Lennok’s blood are distributed and transported throughout the laboratory,

hair and skin are removed and their components are analyzed, and the body’s skeleton is examined to carefully record the extent of injury and damage.

Dabi, riding on his shoulder, wore vision aid glasses for pets that he had obtained from somewhere and analyzed the data instead of Lennok.

[There is no problem with the amount of hormone secretion in the body or blood oxygen concentration.]

Click, click!!

Lennok’s complexion turned pale as he entered the huge capsule-like equipment and was exposed to the cold air.

However, the sudden warm heat can make you sweat and frown for a moment.

A device that measures the body’s response to various stimuli such as cold and warmth created through magical power to determine long-term condition and recovery.

It was originally a rehabilitation training device exclusively for magic users, produced by Baritz for paralyzed patients, but it was a perfect fit for someone like Lennok.

[Most of the body’s reactions are below average. Except for being insensitive to strong stimuli such as pain, I think it can be considered normal for the Master.]

Push!!

Dabi tilted his head as he placed a large towel over the head of Lennok, who walked out with his clothes soaked.

[There doesn’t seem to be a need to worry about damage to the magic circuit or core leak, but rather, there are parts of the damaged body organs that have over-recovered in a way that does not match the average.] “Over-recovery?

”

[It seems that over time, the balance will naturally be restored and things will get back to their original state…]

“…getting worse is not the original state.”

Lennok smiled bitterly at that absurd statement, but it was not wrong.

It was clear that the sense of discomfort Lenno was feeling as he was moving his body was in that area.

A side effect of forcibly restoring the body with the power of Sanctuary.

If Lennok’s recovery without taking into account his original physical condition and penalty is given without limit, this will create a sense of discomfort.

In any case, I extracted simple data about Lennok’s condition as I wanted.

All that remains is to visit an expert in this field and ask for advice.

“I guess I should go see Murphy.”

Lennok pulled out dozens of sheets of warm paper through the output device and took out his cell phone.

A vampire from the central city and an unlicensed doctor living in hiding in the shadows of the Balkans.

Due to Rennok’s physical condition as well as Yorta’s matter, there were facts that needed to be asked of him.

“It’s been a while since I had to get a health checkup.”
