Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Warning (1)

“I don’t know how to start talking… … .”

Jenny let out a deep sigh as she said that.

“You know at a glance, right?”

Seeing that carefree face, Lennok clicked his tongue.

There was not a single wound on her body as her worries went down to the bar.

The tavern, which was using the entire three-story building, did not even have its original form.

Above the second floor, the landscape of the office is completely destroyed and ruined as if it had been hit by a bombardment, and on the first floor, blood and dust are piled up and roll around.

The only thing that has maintained its original form is the bar located in the basement.

Even that bar had half of it destroyed, and tables with broken legs were rolling all over the place.

What’s absurd is that there are still customers laughing and drinking among themselves.

“The people who come to this place at this point are also insane.”

Lennox stuck out his tongue, and Jenny laughed with her chin up.

“There are not one or two people who wouldn’t be surprised if they died tomorrow.”

Receiving the glass she handed her, Lennok said as he took out a cigarette from his arms.

“Okay, let me explain. I was going to tell you briefly about what happened and then go and rest, but what is this like?”

“The cartel is starting to get their hands on it.”

cartel.

In general, the term refers to a faction or a collective, but there is only one cartel mentioned in megacities.

One of the criminal organizations that rule the Balkans in the shadows and one of the three giants of the shadows, the so-called Three Heads.

Basically, it is a huge organization that was created by gathering of companies that were involved in illegal businesses, but eventually degenerated into a simple criminal organization.

“It was good to put up a signboard and change the company name… … The checks came in too quickly.”

While Lennok had left for the Dominion, Jenny, as she had promised him, to start the business in earnest, attracted several sponsors and succeeded in getting it into shape in just ten days.

The theme she wanted to start with was distribution.

Now, he was thinking of accepting and eating the shadowy logistics and distribution business in the hands of scavengers.

“I was planning to gather people who felt skeptical about the mercenary life and the personal connections I had built up while working as a broker to quickly settle down, but it seems that the cartel guys were also eyeing this side.”

When the daughter of Kaise, who ruled in the shadows of the Balkans in the past, comes to the fore, the market structure is greatly shaken.

The quality of her connections was enough to call out big names now retired from the front line, so the cartel feared that the existing order of governance would be shaken.

However, it is difficult to create a justification for the cartel to directly step forward just because she started the business.

So the cartel left a warning by smashing up the bar while she was away.

“When I was concentrating on my broker job, I didn’t bother to touch it, but now things must have changed.”

As Jenny said that, she bit into a long candle and let out a thick stream of smoke.

“It is impossible to continue working in this state, so for now, except for half of you, the other freelancers have turned to Sebastian or Madam. If I want customers to come back later, I’ll have to leave it to the people I know the least.”

“Why did you leave me out?”

“That’s because the company was founded in four names.”

“… … .”

Jenny held out a document in front of Lennok, who was at a loss for words.

Business Registration.

The names of Ban and Jenny were engraved side by side on the name of the representative.

Well, now it’s meaningless to hear whether consent was obtained or whether the procedure was followed properly.

There was nothing but admiration for Jenny’s ability and power of action, which naturally put this clumsy status of class into the business registration certificate.

“For reference, this is the amount of investment I received before starting the business.”

“hmm… … .”

“This is the amount set for the CEO’s annual salary. Further negotiations are possible at any time if necessary.”

Lennok nodded.

“Let’s get to work right away.”

Did you say that the businessmen who make the most money in the world are the ones who make the most money, and the second ones are the investors who put money into the business?

As soon as I saw the numbers printed on the calculator, my worries disappeared.

It was a part that had already been agreed upon before leaving for the autonomous territory anyway.

In the end, if you don’t have a big influence in the Balkans, you won’t be able to reach the rare magic and elixir that Lennok wants for the rest of your life.

The time to crouch down on the excuse of being a freelancer is over.

Now that he has gained another confidence in his skills in the Dominion, it was time to expand his position more aggressively.

[I’ve heard the news.]

As the magic power flowing from the medicine trembled, electricity flowed out.

[The story that the guy who was hiding in the republic fell into a coma was heard even by this old man.]

“… … .”

Of course, in the process of the drug lord’s downfall, there was no mention of Ban’s name, but there is no way that someone as small as a drug lord would not notice what Lennok was up to.

She looked at Lennok with emotionless eyes and quietly accepted the Malabeth roots he gave her.

[I, who gave up everything, have the right to say anything now… … I still want to tell you. You made my wish come true.]

“I just tried it because I thought it was something I could do. All I can say is that I was lucky.”

Lennox was candid about his feelings.

It might be dangerous to leak the whole story of the battle with the drug lord, but it didn’t matter in front of the drug lord.

After today’s meeting, she won’t remember anything anymore.

[Nothing happens by chance between you and drug kingpins.]

Yakseon firmly denied Lennok’s words.

[How can you blame luck and chance among superhumans who interfere with the law? I also felt sorry for my vices as my own shortcomings, but I did not resent them. but… … .]

Contrary to her words, which seem to have detached themselves from the world, human lingering feelings do not easily leave the earth.

Neither Lennok nor Yakseon were aware of this fact without having to say it.

[I will do my best to respond to your wish. Leave it to me.]

As she picks up the dark-colored roots, her eyes were shining incomparably brighter than before.

[This will open up a possibility for your absurd nature.] Lennok

silently descended the mountain as he closed the door of the small cabin and watched the medicine ship disappear.

Magicians who have reached their limit set limits on themselves in order to explore the beyond.

The triggers used by shamans like Grisha must eventually be constraints that work on a similar principle.

How far can Lennok, who has been punishing himself since he opened his eyes in this world, go up?

When Lennok finally gets the answer he was looking for, will he be able to remain the same person he was?

It was unknown.

The ancients, such as Yakseon, were also devoured by the bridle they created by mistake in an instant.

Lennok must be constantly vigilant so that this does not happen.

Only after handing over Malabeth to the Yakseon did Lennok return home from necessary errands.

Since the conflict with the cartel ended with a warning, Jenny and I concluded that we would watch over time, so we had to take a break first.

I set down my luggage full of things I brought from the Dominion.

I lay down on the faintly dusty bed without even washing.

“Cool.”

A cough came out spontaneously, but Lennok lay on his back in a daze and closed his eyes.

The drugs and painkillers smoked in succession in the Dominion. On top of that, I couldn’t even rest in succession, and the accumulated fatigue.

I got out of the lighthouse after resting enough to move around, but it still can’t compare to the relief of coming home.

Even if it is a place that is still unstable and does not seem strange to disappear at any time.

It was a sanctuary that Lennok had built with his own hands.

“Whoa… … .”

I felt like I was going to fall asleep right away, but there was one last thing I had to do.

As soon as I returned to Balkan, there were quite a lot of messages on my cell phone that was connected.

I left a message to return from vacation to Aris, who was angry about where she was and why she didn’t even answer, and

sent a reply saying no to Ibelin, who wanted to see her face.

When Dylan made a fuss about not being able to see his face at the bar these days, he even replied that he had closed the business, before Lennok turned off his cell phone and lay down.

As soon as I closed my eyes, my consciousness fell deeply for a moment.

The quiet room was soon filled with only the sound of slow breathing.

* * *

“Ban is back?”

“yes. Destroying the bar yourself seems to have worked. Seeing that he showed up less than three days after that, I wonder if he was watching the situation from an invisible place.”

“hmm… … The woman I know is not the kind of person who would want to see your reaction to the point of wrecking her bar.”

The woman with a somewhat husky voice spoke in a huff at the plaintive man’s reply.

“It doesn’t matter if you know or not. What are you talking about when things have already happened?”

“Calm down, Iola. It’s just my memory… … . So, how is the business that Zenith is planning to do?”

“On the day we smashed the bar, it seemed to slow down for a moment, but we resumed work the next day. Since we started working again before Ban showed up again, it can be said that we didn’t pay attention to this side’s movements from the beginning.”

“Um… … .”

“If you hesitate, nothing will stop you in the end. I don’t know how I did it, but I’m getting supplies and capital from a large number of investors, led by an old woman named Vincent who was leading trade between cities. It’s not easy to put pressure on investors because it’s a bit different from the entrepreneurs we backed in the Balkans.”

“Are you saying I have to lay my hands on Janice one more time after all?”

The woman did not respond to the man’s unreliable words, but that was no different from de facto agreement.

“… … Shall we call the boss one more time? Didn’t my grandpa also get a lot from Mr. Kaise?”

“Virgil. Do you still want to tell that story? Calm down. The boss said he could kill Janice right away.”

“… … .”

“Isn’t it only old people in the backroom like you who remember Kaise? Now, we have to forget about that name and nip any competitor who looks capable in the bud.”

Virgil didn’t answer.

The woman who confirmed the stubborn stubbornness on her face, sighed.

“You mean you don’t want blood on your hands? great. Then I will do it myself.”

“What are you thinking?”

“If you’re not going to listen to me once, then I’ll have to amputate the limbs next time.”

The eyes of the woman who said that shone coldly.

“Isn’t there any other way? Leave it to me. Not only will he finish the job perfectly, but he will also give you a clean estimate of the magician’s skills.”

– Lenok. I don’t mind, but there are a lot of complaints in the university administration office.

Aris cleared her throat slightly as if embarrassed and said.

“… … sorry.”

-Please note that this is only at a reduced level after Lennok reveals that he is an Elementalist. I don’t care if Lennok comes out to the lab and doesn’t do anything, but I think it would be nice if he showed his face.

“Yes yes. I will try to go to work right away from next week. I will never take such a long vacation in the future.”

After the phone call was over, Lennok straightened his back and let out a sigh.

I never thought that Aris would call me directly from the morning after receiving Lennok’s message.

In fact, Lennok had nothing to say about this, so it was like he was unilaterally indebted to Aris.

It was because Aris, who had noticed Lennok’s talent for theoretical research and scouted him to the lab, had never seen Lennok achieve remarkable results.

Aris didn’t seem to care if Lennok was eating rice in the lab, but that doesn’t mean he can’t do anything.

I accepted it because I thought that I could and should make the life of the sun and the dark compatible, but it was not easy.

‘It would be good to write a thesis on the lightning attribute later… … .’

If Aris was to the extent of saying things like this, I could roughly guess what his reputation would be within the university.

The undergraduate students of the Department of Elements, whom he met face-to-face, sold Darby’s face to build friendships, but to the undergraduate students who wanted to enter Aris’s lab or the staff in the administrative office, he would be seen as an irreplaceable bully.

Lennok also needed to come up with something plausible, even for the other researchers in the lab he hadn’t met yet.

“Shall we even begin… … .”

As Lennok muttered, he turned on the laptop he had placed on the other side of the lab and sat down.
