Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 219
General Meeting of Executives (1)
‘It’s not a problem that can be answered right away.’
It means that you have to think of the worst case and prepare your mind.
Thinking so, Lennok quickly began to grade the remaining test papers.
After scoring the introduction to magic manipulation, what was left was the test paper for the introduction to elemental magic. It mainly contained discourses on water-flow magic.
I don’t tend to use water streams often, but there’s no way that Lennok doesn’t know about the necessary magical flow.
The difficulty of mana manipulation varies greatly depending on how the flow of water is maintained in water current-type magic.
Basically, the difficulty of manipulating the water flow in a line that does not go against the flow direction is not so difficult, but the manipulation does not work well if it goes against the flow or has nothing to do with it.
To solve this problem, there are ways to forcibly twist the flow with a powerful magic manipulation ability or change the flow using artificial tools or terrain.
The most important thing is to induce the right flow and design the board even before using magic.
Consideration of the ability to thoroughly grasp the environment and lay the board before using magic, which is the most important skill for wizards and sorcerers.
Because it is possible to cultivate these abilities, Aris put discussions about the water stream in the midterm exam questions.
“… … .”
The students who received the test papers must have sweated hard to solve the problem in front of them, but Lennok was able to take a step back and vividly picture the whole series of processes in his head.
Even in such a trivial detail, Aris’ care for the students can be seen.
So that it can be of sufficient help to students who learn only through knowledge without dealing with elemental magic.
In the hope that the students who grew up under her teaching at this university will be able to prove themselves as wizards.
If Lennok had gone to college like other wizards, he could have learned magic from Aris this way.
It wouldn’t have been that difficult to achieve unrivaled results in all exams… … . Sometimes I think of my future as an undergraduate in Rabatenon, which I have never experienced.
Lennok’s thoughts were interrupted by blue eyes looking up at him from right next to him.
“… … .”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“Only score this… … I was thinking of going in. It’s an interesting topic, so there’s something to think about.”
Instead of answering, Aris stared blankly at Lennok.
After a while, a voice came out of her mouth.
“I couldn’t hear anything outside… … .”
“… … .”
“It was strangely quiet, but… … .”
I deployed noise magic to cover up the sound of the call.
Although the use of the magic itself was not noticed, it seemed that the perfect noise magic made Aris suspicious.
Sensing that there would be no point in further protesting here, Lennok silently lifted the test paper.
Every test paper in my hand was accompanied by Lennok’s thoughtful comments.
Aris took it quietly, stared down at it, and turned around.
Lennok kept his mouth shut and walked into the library with her.
A study on the 8th floor of a library that was rented out in the name of a chair professor at Rabatenon Magic University.
Hundreds of test papers were placed on the spacious desk under the bright sunlight pouring in through the glass.
Aris tapped the desk while pulling the chair across from her.
Her swept blonde hair spilled over the desk, glistening in the sunlight.
“… … .”
She still didn’t say anything, but Lennok didn’t bother opening his mouth either.
Aris’s face, staring blankly through the window, was deep in thought, unlike before.
Together with him, the magic that forms the sorceress called her surrounds Aris and slowly rotates, vibrating little by little.
Lennok knew.
‘I’ve already made a decision.’
All that remains is to bring out your own answers and check them.
All you need is time.
Lennox nodded in satisfaction.
He was busy with the dispute with the cartel, but wouldn’t he have to make time for something like this?
New 7th level Aspect Wizard.
Even in this city of tens of millions of people, it would be a truly valuable experience for Lennok to witness a moment of self-denial from the sidelines, which is by no means common.
* * *
It has already been more than three days since the rumor that the cartel’s execution unit was annihilated by a single person spread throughout the shadows of the Balkans.
After guiding Girard’s recruits to Iola, Lennok waited to see what answers the Cartel would give.
I don’t think that meaningless wars of attrition will continue, but this floor is not always a neighborhood that only returns to rational judgment.
No matter how hard Lennok tries, he will never be able to find out what words are being exchanged at the top of the cartel.
In the worst case, it would not be strange even if an all-out war with the cartel broke out right now.
It is a reasonable decision to sharpen the necessary blades for the day.
“Your arms are too high.”
baek!
“My leg balance is awkward.”
Wow!
“My head shakes again. Are you not going to do it right?”
baaaaaagh!!
“Aaaaaaaa!!”
Unable to bear it, Wei An let out an incomprehensible scream with all his might.
His face was swollen and bruised beyond recognition.
“Why are you only hitting the face, you son of a bitch!!”
“Why… … . If you get hit that way, you’ll fall behind in one shot.”
Mad Manson, who was taking over Wei An’s opponent, responded coldly.
“On the other hand, I have a head that doesn’t budge even if I get hit.”
Manson’s action of hitting the iron head with his hand was really nasty, but Wei An knew it but didn’t dare to rush at it.
Several sparring events took place in the backyard of Jenny’s bar.
It was because he had already learned how powerful Manson was with his body.
Holding the two blades in reverse, Wei An, who was attacking with all his might, was intercepted with a pipe in his hand, and he selected only the parts that would not faint and beat them.
Although he usually hates working terribly and only listens to Jenny’s scoldings at the bar all day.
His swordsmanship skills were unmistakably genuine.
To the extent that even mercenaries from the Antares office, who usually neglected Manson, came to see the Dalian.
“hmm.”
“Interesting.”
“yes?”
Belver and Belita Dray, as well as mercenaries from other offices who have free patrol hours, form a circle and watch Dalian.
Lennok, who had helped Jenny improve her understanding of basic business, was also enthusiastic enough to open the window and look out.
“Come back in.”
Manson snapped the iron stick in his hand, and Wei An immediately returned to his stance.
He yelled in annoyance, but he also knew that opportunities like this don’t come easily.
An opportunity to run into a powerful opponent far stronger than yourself without worrying about your life.
It was a matchup that would not have been possible if it were not for Manson’s whim, who does not like to go out on patrol.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
I refrain from using the magical power that I awakened in the previous operation as much as possible.
It greatly improved Wei An’s skills on the spot, but it had the disadvantage of making it impossible for him to sense how he was continuing the battle while his body responded immediately to the sensitivity.
What Wei An needs right now is an opponent who can fully embrace the fighting style created with his greatly developed magical power and strength.
Manson was obviously a very suitable teacher in that respect.
Although his son was very vicious and cruel to be a teacher.
“Do you know why people don’t use dual-wielding weapons?”
Manson continued to talk casually, but waved his hand mercilessly.
Bubbubuck!!
Red blood stains the end of the pipe in his hand.
It wasn’t just a nosebleed, but blood mixed with ooze flowed from the skin that had been swollen from the beating.
Even after his face went numb, Wei An didn’t stop and moved closer to Manson.
Even though it is a sparring, it is clearly revealed how far he has been determined to fight.
Manson, who confirmed the appearance, continued.
“It’s difficult and annoying.”
baek!!
As Wayan’s jaw turned long to the left, Manson stepped out and kicked Wayan’s staggering knee.
Pugak!!
“If you hold a weapon in both hands, it’s rather difficult to keep your body balanced. If you can’t use the two weapons effectively, it’s worse than nothing, but conversely, if you want to hit the dual wielder to the limit, you have to lose your balance.”
Beep beep!!
“So holding a weapon in both hands is only possible for so-called geniuses. It’s also a bit brainy… … It’s only possible for those who are divided on both sides like this.”
As Manson said, he pointed at the top of his head with his free hand.
Wei An looked up at him with blurry eyes.
“But I don’t see you as that type of genius. I was just lucky enough to live under a man like Dray and keep that humble life alive.”
“… … .”
“If that doesn’t work, you just have to deal with the problems that arise during combat with a talent that really surpasses common sense, but I’ve only seen two people who can do that. one of them… … .”
As Manson said that, he slightly raised his gaze.
Lennok leaned out the window and looked down at him with nonchalant eyes.
“… … I don’t even want to say anything long. Just get down to business.”
Manson, who was poking Wei An’s body with a pipe, said.
“It’s a waste of time. You’d better change your weapon.”
“It’s not over yet… … .!!”
“So you’re wasting my time? If I had to do more here, I would just make one X scene… … .”
Saying that, Manson, who was about to turn around, stopped talking.
Wedge love!!
It’s different from the sound of a blade passing through the air.
The reciprocal that immediately catches up with Manson as soon as he tilts his head back.
Manson, who turned around with a big back bend, touched the ground with one hand, and at the same time turned over and slammed his foot on Wei An’s head.
Quaang!!
A blow so heavy that it cracked the cement floor.
But, on the contrary, it means that Wei An quickly avoided the attack and started to close the distance with Manson.
The kid who couldn’t even read Manson’s number properly until just now rushes ravenously as if he became a different person in an instant.
“Heh… … !!”
Manson grinned and spun his overturned body as it was, deflecting Wei An and returning to his stance.
He smiled contentedly as he stared at Wei An, whose head was spinning.
“If I knew I could do that, I should have used it earlier… … . I’ll feel better now.”
“… … eww… … .”
There was no answer from Wei An.
He challenged Manson to improve his skills without magic sensitivity, but on the contrary, he could not even become an opponent without relying on his magic sensitivity.
There was only one way.
Shaking like a drunken man with his head shaking, he thrust forward the twin swords he was holding in both hands and charged.
A sudden stop right in front of Manson, who was about to swing his pipe at the right time.
Kiki-Ik-!!
Wei An, who lowered his head and lowered his body in place, gnashed his teeth and stomped on the ground with magical energy and spun.
At that moment, everyone watching the Dalian stopped breathing.
Tatatatatatang!!
The difficulty of dual wielding, as Manson said.
As if mocking that remark, Wei An started dancing madly in the air.
While rotating the body with the powerful recoil obtained from kicking off the ground, the dual wielding skill is fully utilized and the body balance is perfectly maintained to complete the whole battle and defense.
The flashes drawn by the three iron bottles overlapped dozens of times in a moment, creating a cold flame in the air.
“Ha ha ha!!”
Even in the face of a completely different battle, Manson didn’t back down, but rather laughed and snapped the heavy robot head.
The mercenaries who were watching the scene also nodded quietly.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen it in person, but that’s about it… … .”
“It’s said that it’s an idiot itself, but I can understand why you haven’t been hit with a knife yet.”
At Belver’s words, Belita nodded.
“Wei An is also great, but Manson is really different.”
“Is Manson’s swordsmanship that great?”
Lennok, who had been listening to the conversation of the mercenaries below, asked.
Clearly, even when the initiative of the offensive passed to Wei An, they seemed to be focusing on Manson rather than Wei An.
“Ah, were you listening?”
Startled, Belita smiled embarrassingly at Lennok.
Belver looked at Lennok and nodded.
“Wei An’s talent is great, but the basic skills are still lacking. In particular, it is not enough to handle dual swords, and holding one side in reverse is itself extremely dependent on innate senses. In other words, it’s not at a level where you can differentiate between combat and sparring.”
“hmm.”
“However, Manson is still fighting even while accepting attacks from Wayan.”
“Look at the pipe Manson is holding.”
Manson’s pipe, which Belita pointed to, was still unscathed.
“Unlike before, even though the blades collided so violently, the pipe was not cut or broken, and the fact that this sparring is continuing… … It is very difficult.”
Dray, who was watching from the side, was impressed when he heard that.
“You’re a great technician. He’s very different from the rumored personality.”
“Even in his own words, it’s not even a battle element… … . There must be a reason why I am still working as a freelancer on this floor.”
“… … .”
As Lennok knows, Manson prefers to actively use various tools instead of simply obsessing over swordsmanship.
Originally, it wouldn’t be strange to take out various tools to blow Wei An’s head off in one blow between those fierce-looking workshops.
Lennok, who was looking down at the two of them with his chin resting on the window sill, inadvertently threw out a word.
“Would you twist your mana and hook it on the end of the pipe and scrape it off right before Wei’an’s attack reaches its climax… … . It’s not a manipulation-type magic, but it’s amazing that you calculate the timing yourself with your body.”
I don’t know if there was a magician’s assistance, but at least this devastating motor nerve alone could never do it.
Thinking so, Lennok was about to look away when he caught sight of the mercenaries below the window looking up in surprise.
“… … Was there something wrong?”
