Drug-Eating Genius Mage

[I want to ask why.]

A low voice rang out as the flesh swayed.

[It’s been over three months since you were last seen on the Western Resistance Front. It’s been well over half a year since the old friend of Cheongyeon died. But now, why did you bring your face to Philenom?]

“Did you think we would answer that?”

Grisha replied in a sharp voice.

[Oh this voice… … It belonged to a shaman I hate so much. I’m sure it smells like the forest that has been burnt down.]

Dominic’s voice mixed with laughter is not an illusion.

He was openly laughing at her, but Grisha’s expression was cold.

Rather, she looked at Lennok and silently pointed her eyes.

The drug lord realized that he couldn’t see Lennok’s and Grisha’s faces at this point.

[Actually, I didn’t expect this spell to be activated. I have insurance on my business, but I haven’t heard much from the Dominion. So I thought you guys at the lighthouse had all abandoned this beautiful land… … .]

He let out a low laugh as his flesh swayed.

[I was mistaken. You guys were looking for an opportunity.]

“… … .”

[This is a very pleasant miscalculation. If the lighthouse keeper is moving at this point, it must mean that the motherfucker’s nest still remains in the Dominion.] The lightness of

life in her voice was enough to weigh down the surroundings heavily.

This momentum, felt even without the use of any magic power or power, is undoubtedly due to the overwhelming presence of Dominic Cavaro.

[And that means the time has come to recoup the investment I’ve poured into this land.]

[So… … Wait in this prison you created. I’ll go there myself and pluck out the lighthouse keeper’s eyes.]

As soon as he finished speaking, the hole in his flesh shrank and a non-human sound leaked out.

Chiiyiing-!!!

deafening noise.

However, Lennok noticed that it was not just a scream, but a kind of resonant sound with a special wavelength.

“Dabi!”

[Magic wave with a certain pattern. Authorization detection that penetrates the system of magic. Start jamming.]

Pajijijik!!

Immediately, Dabi’s electric shock bounced through her body, striking a similar resonant sound to try to cancel out the sound, but it was too late.

At that sound, as if the power supply that had been turned off had been turned on, the dark red siren resonated everywhere, and a loud announcement began.

[Dominion security permission change detected. Launch of the special exhibition system. Five minutes later, war barriers will be deployed throughout the floating island colony.]

Lennok and Grisha’s expressions hardened at the completely unexpected voice guidance.

“Keeeeeeeeee!!!”

Right after that, he jumped up from his seat and ran towards the two sorcerers.

The obviously murderous move was probably part of a spell that the Juice Master had ordered in advance.

Lennok sighed and raised his mana.

While staying up all night with Weizen, the knowledge of flame-type magic that he absorbed like a sponge unfolded in his head.

Roaring!!

[Small Fire Ball]

[Eightfold Flower]

It is recommended that Blaver Magic Tower’s fire-type unique magic basically start by deploying this palm-sized fireball.

This property is the explosive growth of flame-type magic.

It is meaningful to hope that the destructive power that spreads like wildfire will be realized step by step.

In addition, the creator’s heart was melted, asking not to forget the original intention through the first magic you learn.

Although he couldn’t feel it at all from a wizard named Weizen, Lennok could see the thoughts of the person who first created this magic while looking at the flame-type unique magic through him.

Unlike the wizards of the Mage Tower, who succumbed to arrogance and indolence, this magic system has a godly blind faith similar to that of a seeker at first glance.

The struggle of an ancient man who did not stop even for a moment to avoid being devoured by the flames he had created.

The eight-pronged fireball gently split and rotated, gently embracing the fiercely charging flesh.

The cracked flames turned into huge petals, drawing the shape of a red lotus flower, and the flesh exposed to the intense heat at the center began to turn to ashes.

[Red lotion]

Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

“Kieek… … !!”

Flesh slowly turning into ashes and disappearing as it struggles without feeling proper pain.

Only hazy smoke remains, proving that dozens of lives once existed in this place.

He didn’t feel any sympathy for the soldiers who tried to kill them, but Lennok seemed to know why fire magic was created this way.

If you leave nothing behind every time you cast your magic, you’ll end up feeling nothing but emptiness.

Only the fallen iron shelves remained in the empty underground cavity.

Grisha pressed his temples with a clearly tired complexion.

“shit… … I never thought things would grow this far. We must return to the lighthouse immediately.”

Despite her urgent words, Lennok didn’t care and moved to the spot where the piece of flesh he had burned.

“Evan. What are you doing?!”

“for a moment. This… … .”

Grisha is right.

It is impossible to guess how far the drug lord’s reach would extend if the head of the government building’s relics department, which was directly connected to the lighthouse, had been killed.

It was right to get out of the government building right now and plan for the future, but Lennok didn’t stop.

The feeling of déjà vu that he felt during the flesh-forming ceremony was so intense that it could not be explained in words.

It is strange that Lennok, who rarely forgets about magic or formulas, has such faint remnants of memories.

What if Lennok wasn’t simply forgotten, but something more important was hidden from the drug lord?

I didn’t know if I didn’t check this sense of déjà vu now, when the residual fire in my flesh was still not extinguished, I might miss that clue again.

I put my hands on the floor and tried to clearly remember the remnants of the spell that still remained.

At first glance, it seems that the drug lord has plotted all of this using a strange drug, but apparently there is some magical power melted between them.

Perhaps this might be the solution to the problem we are facing now.

“… … good.”

After memorizing the traces of the spell, Lennok lifted the bronze statue in his hand and immediately stood up.

“First, leave the building and observe the situation. We need to figure out what exactly is going on right now.”

* * *

Lennok and Grisha immediately returned to the lighthouse.

Lapis greeted the two in a well-decorated meeting room instead of a spacious common area located on the upper floors of the tower.

“I was waiting.”

In addition, well over ten people were seated in the conference room in advance.

Apparently, in this general situation, the Celestial Cavity was not used.

As soon as Lennok steps into the conference room, all eyes are on him.

It’s not that I don’t understand.

It would be strange that he didn’t pay attention, since he made a fuss upon arriving at the lighthouse.

Lennok, too, glanced around at those who were staring at him indifferently.

There were only ten people sitting in the spacious conference room that could easily seat fifty people, but all of them were quite high level magic users.

It was said that they were recruiting talented people one after another to deal with the pandemonium, and just those gathered here seemed not to be completely lying.

Of course, there was no overwhelming force like Grisha among them, but at least I can give a decent score in that the organization is rolling with self-sustaining power.

As soon as Lenok picked a chair far away from the meeting room and sat down, the agenda opened.

“The situation has become serious.”

Lapis said with a dark expression.

“I can’t believe the Dominion government’s security system is lax enough to trigger a wartime situation from a distance… … .”

While the two sorcerers returned to the lighthouse, Qing’s eyes grasped the context as follows.

As the Blue Eye struggles on the Western Resistance Front, the drug lord concludes that the Lighthouse is vacant and begins reaching out to the Dominion.

No matter how one of the best colossus on the continent, it seems that it was difficult to completely take over the autonomous territory from thousands of kilometers away, so it seems that several departments and jurisdictions were selected and stretched out. .

An official of the drug lord who had infiltrated the artifacts department killed Enrico, disguised himself as his face, and tried to capture the officials of the lighthouse.

The drug lord, who noticed that the plan was wrong, appeared in person and forcibly declared a war regime in the self-governing territory.

“Why was it the Relics Department?”

Grisha muttered with his arms crossed.

“It’s true that a fair amount of artifacts are traded in the Dominion, but there aren’t that many artifacts worth keeping an eye on.”

“Most of the ancient artifacts that exist are limited to the topography of this floating island colony… … It wouldn’t be that important to a guy who runs business across the continent.”

“The problem now is the large-scale war barrier surrounding the entire Dominion.”

The observer standing next to Lapis said with a serious face.

“It wouldn’t matter if the wartime system was simply declared due to the situation, but the wartime barrier was opened because the drug lord was tampering with the security authority.”

“I heard that it is a barrier that is huge enough to protect the entire Philenom Dominion. What is the exact size and power?”

Lennok asked, and she answered right away. Evidence that the necessary information has already been perfectly assembled.

The ability to gather information seemed to be worthy of the name of the organization.

“Everything is geared toward complete isolation between inside and outside. Once deployed, it is maintained for three days and is limited to the number of deployments. It is an item that should only be used in situations where the survival of Philenom is at stake.”

Lapis took those words.

“Originally, it was unlikely that it could develop with only this much interference, but due to the recent tensions with the megalopolis, they said that measures were taken to allow it to unfold at any time.”

“No matter how lucky you are… … .”

Grisha shook his head with an absurd face.

If the drug lord hadn’t touched the relics department, if Enrico’s identity hadn’t been discovered, if the Dominion wasn’t in a state of tension.

It’s absurd bad luck, but Lennok knew that all of this was no mere coincidence.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Dominic Cavaro immediately declared a state of war as soon as he was convinced of the lighthouse’s existence.

He knew from the start that the Dominion’s barrier operation was rather loosely coordinated.

Although it is said that trivial misfortunes overlapped, what ultimately created this situation was the result of the combination of the self-governing government’s incompetence and the drug lord’s careful investment.

There was no reason to hold on to something that could not be helped.

“The biggest problem is that the barriers spread throughout the Dominion work in a way that isolates the inside from the outside.”

As the watcher said that, a hologram made of magic floated in the back of the conference room.

A three-dimensional map of the entire floating island colony unfolded, revealing a vast spherical barrier wrapped around it as if it were padding.

“Due to the nature of the autonomous territory, it was possible because the land used was small and the floating islands existed at various altitudes, but… … .”

“It’s like a prison where we’re imprisoned now.”

Grisha murmured as he chewed on his pipe.

In other words, the drug lord used the barrier created to protect the Dominion as a cage to prevent Qing’s eyes from escaping.

The fact that he noticed the existence of the lighthouse and executed it on the spot, rather than preparing all of this in advance, made it impossible to gauge its potential.

“The duration of the barrier is three days… … Considering what he said, do you have the confidence to come all the way from the other side of the continent in just three days?”

“This is nonsense. He is over thousands of kilometers away in the Republic of Paraguinea. How can he locate the lighthouse?”

A distance that would take less than a day on Earth using an airplane.

However, in a world full of strange natural phenomena, flying is never a safe type of transportation.

Even in the Balkans, communication was restricted due to magnetic storms that raged on the outskirts of undeveloped areas.

“If Juicemaster were just a drug dealer, that would be it.”

“… … .”

“He is a colossus who alone is responsible for 40% of drug trafficking to and from this continent and is a member of pandemonium. At the same time, we have strong technical resources to continue to supply new drugs to the market.”

“that… … .”

“If you have that kind of technology, it wouldn’t be strange at all if you were hiding some tricks to manage your trading network.”

It’s hard to believe, but the problem is that it’s not impossible.

In this world overflowing with all sorts of spells and abilities, it cannot be said that there is no powerful transfer spell that can go from one continent to the other.

And even if the drug lord couldn’t get his hands on such a rare means of transportation, you can never be sure.

Lennok also did not think that the vocal cords created by drug lords using human corpses were ordinary techniques.

It must have been the work of a drug lord created by combining the effects of magic and drugs.

If you use the prohibition method of grinding living humans like that, it wouldn’t be strange if you really flew that far and arrived in an isolated Dominion.

Other observers quickly began exchanging opinions on whether this was possible under the conditions of time and space.

As the magic users gathered here were also at a considerable level, each had their own strong opinions, so a more in-depth discussion was going on.

Lennok moderately listened to the opinions, but at the timing when meaningful progress was no longer coming, he quickly cut off the conversation and knocked on the table.

“Just don’t go there. There is no reason to prolong this issue.”

All the other watchers turned their gazes at him in unison.

It seemed that he had heard about what had happened in the celestial cavity beforehand, and his gaze at Lenok was full of deep curiosity.

Lennok calmly accepted those gazes and opened his mouth.

“In the end, it is impossible to determine the truth of what the drug lord said from this side. We don’t know what means he intends to use.”

“But the other party hasn’t heard why we tried to contact Enrico either. In other words, he doesn’t know we’re looking for his safe.”

The important thing is not whether the drug lord lied on the spot.

Depending on how much information I hid from this side, the action options I could take would be completely different, so it was necessary to clearly know the upper limit of the information I was holding.

Only then did the observers, who realized the meaning of Lenok’s words, widen their eyes.

“Right. That was the point.”

“You mean this side has to choose which direction to move first? That’s right.”

“I kept my eyes on the barrier, so I put it aside. All that has been revealed to the other side is actually our existence. Obviously, the right to go first is with us.”

Once you throw in a keyword, the meeting starts to change in an instant.

Shocked that the security system of the Dominion was destroyed at once, they were confused about the point for a while, but they were also talented people who had been directly rolling in the field for a long time.

Lennok put together conversations from all directions and delivered a conclusion.

“okay. No matter how much he stretches his hands here and there in the Dominion, in order to control all of that, there will be a ledger for managing his subordinates in the field.”

And if such a ledger exists, isn’t there only one place where the ledger could exist?

“Find his safe and rob all its contents. This is the only thing you need to do first.”
