Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Plan (2)

The three of them closed the bar and headed straight to the office above the bar.

It was early in the morning, so all the guests who had stayed up all night had disappeared, and it was possible because it was a quiet time.

After arriving at the office, locking the door, drawing blackout curtains on the windows, and perfecting the security and soundproofing with Lennok’s magic, Jenny started banging on the laptop.

It was the same as meaning that what would come out of her mouth from now on was just as important.

“Look at this first. It’s the most recent picture of Juicemaster.”

“……..”

Lennok and Jordan tilted their heads to gaze at a blurry photo on their laptop.

ruined city. A legion of dozens of tanks passed in the middle of a huge, completely ruined road.

One of them was photographed with a blurry figure sitting on one of the trams and puffing out cigarette smoke.

“It’s the face, the physique, and I can’t see anything.”

“You’re blocking everything from being recorded with the artifacts you have. It’s not that your face and identity aren’t unknown at all, but what kind of health you’re maintaining right now can be a surprisingly important strategy.”

“It’s none of our business.”

Lennok’s job is not to kill the drug lord, but to break his safe.

There was no way that Jenny didn’t know that finding out his whereabouts also had to be approached as part of that.

“It is estimated that this photo was taken two weeks ago. The place is the Republic of Paraguinea, located on the Rama Plateau in the extreme west of the continent. It is a paradise for outlaws who have completely taken over the poor national economy and established a dictatorship.”

“A drug lord joined hands with them?”

“Actually, those words aren’t enough to describe what Dominic Cavaro has done. The Republic has already gone to the point of no return due to the drugs that were randomly sprayed to cover the regime’s low approval rating. There were a lot of people who sought spiritual pleasure in the chaos of the country.”

The picture changes.

The direction the tram is heading is a very ornate palace that looks like it was built by a dictatorship.

“It is not an exaggeration to say that he has practically taken a country in his hands.”

A member of the Pandemonium. A colossus who took possession of the continent’s drug dealer. And now he is the tacit ruler of the Republic.

“Of course, the Republic is not as great a country as you might think. Do you know?”

I do not know. Although I had studied the topography of the area around the megalopolis Balkan, I hadn’t even memorized the name of the small republic located at the western end of the continent.

“No matter how much it is called a republic, it is just an old backward country that has fallen behind the flow, as you can guess that it is still wearing the name of such a country in this era. Compared to the Balkans, it is a remote area that is really not even new blood. But even so, why is Jenny telling you this story…”

said Jordan, pointing to his laptop.

“My advice is to avoid confrontation with drug lords as much as possible.”

“……”

“If it is you, it will be possible to stand shoulder to shoulder with those monsters someday. But not now. There is still much work to be done, both for you and for us.”

“Even if you have a secret plan that we don’t know about, even if you succeed in killing the drug lord with genius magic that no one knows about… We can’t handle the aftermath.”

“Remember.”

Saying so, Jordan’s face was heavier than ever.

“That the one who once put all the shadows of this city under his feet was eventually crushed before the pandemonium.”

Lennok folded his arms and listened to the words quietly, then spat out.

“That’s probably the story of a man named Kaise, right?”

“……..”

“Jenny and Jordan, considering all the words you have spilled over the years, it doesn’t mean that those words don’t make sense.”

I took my eyes off my laptop and sat across from Jenny.

Jenny slightly lowered her head to avoid Lennoc’s gaze.

“Remember the advice.”

“…To be honest, it’s a pointless worry.”

Jenny, who pursed her lips, shared the laptop screen on the screen hanging on the wall of the office and said.

“It is estimated that Juice Master completely took possession of the Republic about two weeks ago. I don’t know what he intends to do in the fallen republic, but it will take two months at the earliest to stabilize the chaotic situation and establish the desired environment.”

“In addition, if you consider the time it takes to travel from one end of the continent to the other, the chances of actually encountering the drug lord in this day are very low. I think the timing is very appropriate.”

Lennok, who had been quietly listening to Jenny, spoke.

“That word is nonsense. This time, it’s not about calculating the location of the drug lord and us, but if we don’t calculate the distance between the drug lord and his safe… wait, that means—” Lennok realized what Jenny meant after saying that

. I stopped talking.

Jenny smiled at her and said.

“that’s right. The drug lord’s safe spread across the entire continent. Among them, the medicine warehouse we should be aiming for is right near Balkan.”

With those words, Lennok, who saw the map on his laptop, opened his mouth slightly.

Head north from the plain where the megalopolis Balkan is located.

After passing through the barren plateau where a society was once held, a colony of innumerable islands stood on a huge cut-off surface that could be confirmed even on a map.

The names written there were of a kind that were by no means foreign to Lennok.

“Dominion of Philenom.”

Jenny let out a deep sigh and said.

“I guess I picked the worst place to travel in this country.”
