Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 280

The Advent of the Apostles (2)

The day after the Chaeju Decision Match.

Due to the commotion that occurred in the manor, the entire fortress turned into a house of mourning.

The shock of the residents of the citadel when they realized that they had almost become a living sacrifice was enormous.

The residents of the citadel are aware that they are members of the Triumvirate, but most of them are ordinary people living their daily lives inside the citadel.

It is a shame because they are aware that the culprits are Ilwon and Ibon, but if it had not been for Samyeong’s existence, uncontrollable confusion would have spread.

“I’m just saying it now, but I’m really glad I won the proxy war.”

Training, who had been trying to explain the situation to the residents of the fortress until just now, sighed.

“I don’t even want to imagine what would have happened if the position of Chae-joo had been passed on to Lee Bon-ga-joo.”

The order of the citadel is still maintained because it was announced that the new owner of the castle was Samyoung’s family, Oren.

If the family head of Samyeong, who saved them despite the disadvantages, takes over the position of the head of the household, the castle can continue to exist by punishing the head of the different family.

The head of the family and their family members continued to make efforts to convince the residents of the fortress of that fact.

However, Lennok shook his head slowly despite the words of training.

“In any way, the citadel will change.”

“What do you mean?”

“The reason why Bagoong Fort was able to maintain its present status is that it has hidden its weakened power through a closed society. Since this incident clearly revealed the incompetence and lack of power of the family heads, rumors will spread outside in no time.”

“… … .”

“Not only will they step down from the position of the Triumvirate, but the city council that allowed them to continue this way will also interfere. You will have to endure quite a few changes.”

As a member of the Three Heads, the fortress was able to reign as a shadowy figure because the mighty power of the 8 family heads and the approval of the city council were compatible.

However, this incident directly revealed that even among the high-ranking officials of the fortress, there was dissatisfaction with the city council’s policy, so it would be difficult to maintain the current closed social order.

Unlike the cartel, which has an absolute leader named Oliviera, Oren, the new owner of the Samyeong household, is not a strong person who transcends royalties to that extent.

It was inevitable that the city council would interfere, as well as other organizations in the shadows.

“Right… … . I understood what you meant. Maybe it was destined to be like this after the death of Chaeju from the previous generation.”

Soo-ryun nodded with a complicated expression.

“Even though they have the grand prestige of being the 8th family, in reality they were just acting as nobles in a closed society blocking communication with the outside world.”

She looked out at the landscape outside the mansion with complicated eyes and said.

“Even if it’s not now, the moment will come when we will all be kicked out of that street someday.”

“Is it necessary to think that far?”

Lennok laughed and stood up.

“It was created out of necessity and only changes. There is no reason to be afraid of change once you have decided where you stand in the process.”

“… … .”

“Oren will be a good leader. Even if we can no longer keep the citadel safe, we can take responsibility for the residents who have lived under their protection.”

From then on, it’s no area for Lennok to interfere.

Regarding the situation and future inside the fortress, it was an area where Lennok had neither the right nor interest to intervene.

Su-ryun asked as he looked at Lennok’s back as he moved forward.

“Where are you going?”

“I have to go finish the unfinished business.”

Lennok replied, taking out a cigarette from his bosom.

“I would have liked to wait until Oren came to his senses, but… … . I don’t have much time.”

“that… … .”

“There must be a reason why he dared to run away to the headquarters of the head of the family. It would be more effective to move from this side first before they use their moves.”

“… … Why are you helping us so much?”

Soo-ryun asked with a complicated expression.

“All you have to do is done. As promised to me and Chen, we won the proxy war and made Oren the Chaeju. Even if you only received the reward you wanted and left, no one would say anything to you… … .”

“… … .”

It must be because Lennok is looking at the essence of this case from a completely different perspective than other people.

The identity of the Guido Church that the head of Pandaemonium mentioned.

The investigation started with the words to find the sect’s secret wife if you are looking for space-time magic, but now you are looking at a little more.

The reason why missionary Walter has been working so hard for so long to gain access to the fort’s internal facilities.

It must have been to obtain the ruins that Oren showed us, separated in time and space inside the fort.

And those ruins are highly likely to be related to the old world, which no longer exists.

The pandemonium looking for relics of the old world and the church looking for the time and space of the old world.

Lennok had to check and remember the destinations of the two organizations at the moment he got the chance.

Lennok had come too far to dismiss it as something that had nothing to do with him.

To ascertain the truth and come up with an answer before the end of the world.

It was ultimately in line with Lennok’s journey to throw off his bondage.

“well.”

However, Lennok laughed it off instead of telling Su-ryun about the circumstances.

“If you are thinking of joining my company, I might tell you then.”

“what?”

Lennok immediately turned his back, leaving behind the practice questioning with a blank expression.

Several preparations were required to complete this work.

* * *

The street leading to Yvonne’s home.

In the main street, which should have been crowded with all kinds of people, there was only cold silence.

“… … It

is only natural that the residents who realized who the culprit was in this situation would move away from the center of the fort as much as possible.

Lennok, who had been walking slowly while blowing smoke, suddenly turned his head.

From one corner of the alley, Chen and Manson were slowly walking out.

“What about Oren?”

“They overcame the hump overnight and are now asleep. The damage to the abdominal organs is serious, and they say that you will need to be thoroughly rested for several months.”

[The doctor said he passed out after fighting for a long time even after his stomach was half eaten? What a nasty old man,”

Manson said, then asked Lennok while bobbing his robot head.

[…] … But are you really going alone?

”

Lennok laughed.

“Don’t hold on to your ankles, just watch quietly.”

Less than 24 hours had passed since the aftermath of the proxy war in which Chen, Manson training, and Samyoung’s entourage participated and fought.

There are not many people who can be put into the front line without having Lenok’s magic recovery ability.

The amount of magic consumed is also magic, but the injuries sustained in the process are also a level that cannot be ignored.

In the current situation, it was rather likely to be a hindrance.

[Hmm, I’m not the kind of person who goes around hearing things like this… … . But it’s hard to deny.]

Manson crossed his arms and nodded while Chen made a melancholy expression.

He knows that with his own skills, he can’t be of any help in the battle of 7th level superhumans, regardless of whether he is injured or not.

“… … If Oren wakes up and releases the outer barrier of the citadel, it will be possible to call my friends. If you wait a little longer until then… … .”

“Then the city council’s interference will also begin.”

“… … .”

“If we don’t get things done before the other side steps in, we’ll be involved as accomplices, and things will be a hassle.”

[If you consider the temperament of those old friends, I’m sure it is.]

Lennok said, taking one look at Manson, who kept making jokes, and silenced him.

“If the existence of the church is confirmed, there is a low chance of ending up innocent. In order to avoid the intervention of the city council, it is best to finish the work quickly and give only the results.”

“Is that the conclusion that you go into Yvon’s family home alone?”

Chen said and shook his head.

“I can’t understand the thoughts of the high mages… … .”

[It’s the other way around, stupid. Because we think and act in that way, we can complete the hierarchy.]

Manson said while stroking the hard metal jaw.

[I’ll have to try to do more crazier things in the future.]

“… … .”

Lennox sighed at the sight of Manson talking nonsense.

“If the situation is difficult, I will finish at the line of estimating the strength of the other side, so don’t do anything useless and wait at the place I said.” “

That… … .”

“Even after completing the work of the fort, probation may be necessary.”

Lennok laughed.

“You know what I mean?”

“… … good.”

Chen nodded with difficulty.

“I’ll ask later about putting a scout on my sister without my knowledge.”

“… … .”

I thought he used his hand secretly so that Chen wouldn’t notice him, but was he caught?

If he was a skilled person at the level of training, Chen might have been thinking about getting him into his business as well.

Chen looked at Lennok’s face, then smiled and turned his back.

Manson grabbed Chen by the shoulder and waved away.

Lennok stared blankly at the two before moving on.

Lennok, who was walking along a quiet street, suddenly opened his mouth.

“You’d better go back here, too.”

“… … .”

“I said it, but it only gets in the way. And you have no fighting skills.”

“… … I know.”

Stepping out of the shadows between the alleys was a young man with a slimmer build than Lennok.

“It was probably Ban-nim who saved me in the last proxy war. I was guessing.”

Hands and feet shaking with a pale complexion.

A weak temperament that can be seen as frightened even at a glance.

However, at least one skill in handling the shadows is real.

Asui, Oren’s nephew and the second most powerful shadow magician in the Samyeong family, who also participated in this proxy war, was standing there.

Lennok scanned his body with a nonchalant glare.

“Then why are you insisting?”

“… … I’m not good at fighting, but I’m confident in handling the shadows.”

With those words, a large shadow curtain rose from behind Asui and covered the surroundings.

“I don’t have as much talent as my uncle… … .”

Asui gulped and continued.

“You may be able to hide what the wizard is trying to do from outside eyes.”

“… … .”

The meaning of Asui’s words is clear.

Asui understood, at least roughly, what Lennok was going to do from now on.

“You must be thinking of using the magnetic realm… … And it must be a disaster of a kind that cannot be disclosed to the outside world.”

Asui trembled at Lenok’s sharp momentum as he spoke.

“Unless… … The reason you’re doing this is… … .”

“You know that, but you still come to me and make me an offer.”

Lennok laughed.

“Did you not think I would kill you to silence you?”

“If you thought so… … In the proxy war, I couldn’t even open my eyes… … Asui

said while sweating profusely.

“I just put up a tent, but I can’t peek inside. All that is possible within my realm… … .”

“… … area?”

Lennok asked.

“Do you know how to use the realm?”

“… … yes.”

Asui nodded slowly.

His face hardened with tension.

“I haven’t been able to properly imprint the image yet, but if it’s a little… … .”

* * *

“Start quickly.”

“It’s easy to say, but it’s not really something that can be solved that quickly. If you don’t go through fine adjustments, you will only fail a hundred times… … .”

“I cannot last long. hurry… … !”

Walter let out a deep sigh at the sight of Yvon, who stopped talking and began to violently grab his shoulder and scratch it.

“You got it wrong… … .”

The church’s grace that made Lee Bon-gaju young. The side effects were coming sooner than expected.

Originally, he should have been resting for a long time and slowly making his body into something other than human.

However, due to the injuries sustained while running away from the proxy war, the balance of magical energy in the body collapses and the body collapses.

Evidence that the Church’s technology is still insufficient to perfectly transform a 7th-level superhuman.

But instead of venting his feelings, Walter raised his head and smiled.

At the end of that line of sight, the body of Ilwon Family Head Tae-oh, tied to dozens of veins of blood, was hanging.

“So, let’s do our best. Ilwon family.”

“You broke your promise… … !!”

Tae-o, who struggled while hanging in the air, screamed and screamed.

“Didn’t I tell you that my father will be saved if I cooperate!!”

“… … “

So that’s why I waited until I offered my family’s blood relatives…” … . How could you fool me, Yvonne!”

Tae-o wasn’t simply fooled by an outright lie.

Chae-joo of the previous generation who was murdered. Wasn’t it because he was persuaded by Lee Bon-gaju that he could resurrect the body, so he cooperated with her while devoting everything to this extent?

I believed that if she had regained her youth with the help of the church, she would surely have a way to bring her father back to life.

I never thought he would try to use his own body instead of reviving his father.

Walter smiled, caressing his chin leisurely.

“Actually, I didn’t break my promise. As you can see, the father’s body, which Ilwon Family Head desperately longs for, is moving normally here, right?”

“Shut up!! Stop making my father comfortable!!”

Despite Tae-o’s cry, Walter shook his head with a troubled expression.

“Nothing is easy. According to the calculations, the work should have ended when I obtained the body of Chae-joo from the previous generation… … Didn’t he come back this far in order to open the barrier surrounding the site where time and space were separated

?

I thought that if I used the security code left in Chaeju’s body from the previous generation, the barrier would open, but the system of the barrier that the Ascendant left behind was not so easy.

That’s probably because this barrier itself was created through the mediation of the city council, not the safety of the citadel.

It is proof that the city council was paying attention to the existence of this historic site.

In the end, he tried to open a proxy war and legitimately obtain the qualifications, but everything went wrong because of the existence of only one wizard.

“But it is not without a way.”

As Walter said that, he slowly reached out his hand to Tae-o’s body.

“If Samyoung, who has been nominated as the next chaeju, is unconscious now, we can temporarily restore her qualifications as a chaeju by supplying a large amount of blood to this chaeju’s body.”

Tae-o, whose face had gone pale, twisted his body like crazy, but it was useless.

“I wanted to refrain from using this method because my body would be completely destroyed, but… … Now is not the time to be blind.”

In an instant, a small hole is opened in Tae-oh’s abdomen, and the tremendous suction power begins to suck the blood from all over the body.

“Aaaaaaaaa!!”

The terrified Ilwongaju cried out indescribably, but Walter soothed him with a soft voice.

“Don’t be so scared. Didn’t all of the other members of the clan leave like that?”

Tae-oh’s shouting quickly subsided. In an instant, Walter’s low voice continued over his widened eyes that lost their vitality.

“You were the one who sacrificed every member of the family to save my father.”

That moment.

Woooooooooo!!

A shock wave of intense magical power that shook the whole mansion was struck.

Rather than inflicting a direct blow, the use of force openly oppresses the nearby streets themselves.

It was clear who the opponent was.

“… … !!”

“bloke… … This is it.”

Yvon jumped up from his seat and stared into the air.

In an instant, her eyes pierced the walls and began to peer under the mansion’s gates.

There was one man whose whole body was dripping with pure white magical steam.

A sorceress in a coat was looking up at her with blue eyes flashing between his eyes.
