Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 113
An uninhabited plateau.
It was a long way from the forest where Archwood fainted.
It is an empty landscape that can be immediately recognized by someone approaching.
This would be enough to give Lennok a good excuse, even after he returns to his quarters.
Instead of sitting on his shoulder and watching the flapping hawk, Lennok pulled out another cigarette and said,
“So that means the next generation of ‘lighthouse keepers’ will be there.”
The lighthouse keeper of Philenom.
No one should know that the Ascendant, who was on a mission to observe the open sea, passed on his will to Lennok.
For someone like her who could eavesdrop on the transmission of a transcendental being, it wouldn’t be strange if she came to kill Lennok from the beginning when she found out about this.
However, if someone who overturned all expectations and knew that fact appeared, what would be the reason?
[It was my grandmother.]
A calm answer. Lennok raised his eyebrows, realizing that there was no emotion in the voice.
“…It would be useless to come here and deny it. So what’s the matter? Did you even want to know what he left me with?”
I’m sorry, but that’s impossible.
Madrea’s words to Lennok were so sharp and deadly that they accurately penetrated his talent and penalties.
That was probably possible because she had the nickname of seeing through the sky.
Conversely, at the time of the death of the heavenly dog, it is difficult for other ascendants to know this fact.
She couldn’t open that up so easily to her granddaughter.
[…] Grandmother always determined her own destiny. If his will reached only one person, then I have no right to know its contents.]
“………”
[The matter is on the other side. To be precise, it’s more of a discussion of this situation where ‘observation’ collapses after the ascendant’s death and monsters from the open sea approach.] “Why should
I listen to that? There must be many more powerful and noble wizards than me.”
[I didn’t deserve to hear my grandmother’s will, but I thought you deserved to know the secrets of this world.] Lennok fell
silent at her extremely calm response.
A chilly wilderness unfolds before your eyes.
At this moment, only this scenery seems to be the whole world, but Lennok has never forgotten it.
A huge dark sea called the open sea that exists outside of this world.
And the existence of monsters watching this place from beyond.
closed world. alkyd. Ascendant. Secrets of the End and the Third World.
Didn’t I wait for the moment when these sparsely remembered words were organically connected?
Perhaps this moment was the first step he had been waiting for so long.
[The wizard Grandmother chose last must have more than meets the eye… Right now, we desperately need their help.] Flutter..
!!
A hawk sharing the same scenery as Lennok flapped its wings and took off.
[I don’t need long words.]
Her last message landed quietly on the plateau as the new type of spirit that rose higher and higher in the sky disappeared.
[If you have made up your mind, please visit the Lighthouse in Philenom. I’ll be waiting for you.]
“…….”
Lennok, who was looking at the shape of the spirit flying away from there, belatedly realized something and nodded.
“The Dominion of Philenom… that’s right.”
This plateau, where the conference is now held, is one of the countless plains located between the megalopolis of Balkan and the Dominion of Philenom.
The reason why the new lighthouse keeper finally contacted him must have something to do with this situation.
She had been determined from the beginning and summoned the spirit to leave a message to come to the Dominion if she wanted to hear the whole truth.
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.”
The problem is that the atmosphere in the great city of Vulcan and the Dominion is extremely threatening.
Considering that Lennok was anticipating a war in the back alley where he worked, relations between the two regions seemed unlikely to improve in the future.
I’ll have to listen to her, so I’ll have to visit the Dominion someday.
Since he has recently carried out an operation with an agent, he should be careful about moving against the planting of the city government if he does not want to be noticed.
After all, it means that it is difficult to move towards the Dominion easily without a suitable excuse…
‘I’ll have to seek help from Jenny.’
Rubbing the tobacco with his feet, Lennok brushed off the hem of his coat and moved on.
Aris knew that Lennok smoked, but she didn’t like the smell either.
I’ll have to go back soon, even if it’s just to give me an excuse for leaving my seat.
Lennok glanced back at the place where the spirit disappeared for the last time before returning to his quarters.
In the place where the green wind passed, the dry highland air had long since erased its traces.
