Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 288
Meaning of the message (3)
“So, during the vacation, I turned the Pagoong Fort completely upside down and came here?”
Jenny, who was sitting at the bar with her chin resting, asked with an absurd expression.
“The result is those two people?”
“That’s how it is.”
Lennok nodded and looked away slightly.
A woman with blue hair and a young man with a timid expression.
Oren, who had eliminated the closed window of the Fortress of Bagoong and declared communication with the outside world, sent the two of them outside as the messengers of the fortress first.
It was needless to say where the two people who had no ties to the shadows of the Balkans could trust their bodies.
“It is called training. Please take good care of me.”
“Ah, my name is As.”
“… … .”
“Both of them are experts in their fields. It will help in some way.”
Not only does the skill of training directly contribute to the company’s strength, Asui’s shadow art is also useful.
In particular, the field-type shadow curtain, which is manifested in his reluctance to fight, is as efficient as Lennok when it comes to blocking or hiding his line of sight.
The reason why the two people who will occupy a significant amount of power even inside the fortress, which has now changed its name to the Hexagonal Fort, came out is simple.
Instead of concentrating on strengthening the military by locking themselves inside the fort right away, they decided to actively communicate with the outside world and seek other ways to negotiate.
It is an obvious result that the six-sided fort is difficult to compare to other triads after the sudden death of the former chaeju, who was close to level 8, and the self-destruction of Ilwon and Lee Bon.
It was Oren’s will to quickly accept the reality and change rather than trying to maintain his size by force.
Despite his somewhat harsh behavior and solemn disposition, he possessed the qualities of a good leader.
When Lennok gave a brief explanation of the two’s backgrounds and abilities, Jenny’s face widened and smiled.
“If you’re from a high-ranking clan on the side of the fortress, you’re welcome. I’ve given up on drilling through the distribution network towards Bagoong Fortress, but having two people would be quite helpful.”
“… … is it?”
In spite of Lennox’s flirtatious reply, Jenny nodded her head coldly.
“of course. The population density of the fort is very high compared to the area of the area. They are all potential customers.”
“… … .”
“I thought the growth of the distribution network had reached a plateau recently, but where did you find such a unique network… … Hehehe.”
With a sinister laugh, she rose from her seat like a ghost and held out her hand to the two of them first.
“Welcome to both of them. Let’s work together until our bones dry.”
“Well, I never thought I would be working in such a gloomy underground, but this wouldn’t be bad either. I’m counting on you.”
Perhaps it was because she longed for life outside, Su-ryun’s face, when she said that, seemed to be full of excitement somewhere.
“… … .”
Jenny stared at Su-ryun’s face crookedly, then squeezed Su-ryun’s hand tightly.
Su-ryun stared at Jenny with a puzzled expression, then nodded.
“Why? Oh, is this the way we shake hands outside?”
Kwak!
“Kyaaak!! no no!! I made a mistake Wait a minute!!”
At the same time as Jenny’s shrill scream erupted, the bar turned into a lively scene in an instant.
“Jenny, what are you doing!”
“Brokers shouldn’t fail to overpower their customers!”
“Cut down your business and do some exercise!”
At the back of the bar where laughter erupted, Jenny rubbed her hands with a tear-stained face.
Lennok sighed as he spilled the potion on Jenny’s swollen hands.
I never thought that I would test the power of my grip against a level 6 martial artist.
“Both of them have only lived inside the citadel, so there must be many things they don’t know. It would be better if someone else was attached.”
“I guess so. I know you’re suddenly quarreling… … .”
“… … .”
Could it be that the top was loosened after hearing that the bar he had worked so hard for was gloomy?
Jenny was a broker who had been rolling on this floor for several years, but unlike her thorough job handling skills, she had a hot-tempered side.
Jenny nodded with a confused expression and tapped the laptop while kneading her hands.
“If the fort side started to open up, this side should also drastically increase the frequency and scope of updating information on that side. Until now, we have only collected rough information about Chae-joo and the three families close to her, but I need to completely revise the scope of coverage.”
As she said that, she turned her gaze to Su-ryun and Asui.
“Training I’ll ask you to train the employees first. We’re building a special goods transport unit that will be operating under Dray’s command, and Manson is helping the crew train for combat. You should join them.”
“I am confident in handling the window. I don’t know what to do with that psychopath… … I’d love to be able to help.”
“Asui, wait for now. I don’t have a good sense of the shadow magic right now. I think we need to compare the efficiency by sequentially investing in low-risk tasks. From the looks of it, they seem to be the same age as Wei An, but it would be better to put the two of them together and form a group.”
“My me and him?”
Wei An, who was wiping away sweat with a towel as if training had just finished, asked with a puzzled expression.
“The balance between the front and rear ranks is just right, and if talented people like you are active as a team, the work that can be done at the company level increases.”
“That’s it, but… … . Umm… … . He’s the guy Ban brought in, but he’s a magician and a genius… … It seems like the complete opposite to me… … .”
Does the fact that they are the same age that Lennok brought directly bring him a sense of rivalry?
Wei An tried to resist a little, but he couldn’t help but agree to Jenny, who pushed him in the name of work orders.
Lennok laughed at Wei An, who took Asui with him even though he had a sour expression on his face, and training, who started demonstrating spearmanship with the introduction of Dray at the training ground prepared in the basement of the company building.
“The work is done too fast. Haven’t you finished all the things you have to do while I’m gone?”
The order Jenny just threw and the actions of the employees following it would be impossible without the company already clearly distinguishing their specialties and tasks.
It seems like just yesterday that they said they would start a material distribution business under their names, but while Lennok was doing various things outside, the company was steadily growing in size.
Jenny responded by knocking on her laptop indifferently.
“Thanks to the former special forces members who joined Dray, the strands were caught. Once the group power that becomes the standard within the company is established, you can get a sense of how much you can expand and maintain the business scale.”
“Right… … .”
“In addition, since I am still concurrently working as a broker, designating high-risk tasks as requests and handing them over to freelancers is very efficient… … .”
She said and turned her head to Lennok.
“Critically, our boss keeps building reputation and personal connections on the outside.”
“… … .”
“The decline in the status of the citadel is a big problem for the entire metropolis, but the fact that you and Ban directly traded with the ruler is a great income for us. The Hexagonal Citadel sucks as much of its status as possible before it descends from the position of the Three Heads. hehehe… … .”
Lennok silently looked away at Jenny banging on her laptop while letting out a sinister laugh.
Jordan, who was silently cleaning his glasses in the corner of the bar, smiled faintly at Lennok.
It feels like a lot of the big obstacles in company management have disappeared while dealing with troublesome things one after another in the cartel and Pagoong Citadel.
At this rate, it would be unlikely that Jenny’s own distribution business for dark goods would self-destruct.
“The bidding for ownership of the commercial districts around here is already over. It won’t take long until we get permission to rebuild the office building, let alone expand the business. Considering that the division of commercial land in the 49th district is ambiguous, I think I can give you some back money and increase the floor area ratio… … .”
After that, Lennok left while listening to Jenny talk about the internal administration of the company.
I recognized that the company’s prospects were bright and the business condition was good right away, but I knew there was no reason to do anything.
Rather, Lennok was short of time just concentrating on organizing the knowledge and harvest he had gained in the citadel.
Even though he was aware of that, he took the time to find Jenny because he knew that securing his future was just as important as his own growth.
It is not strange if one day, in the end, there is a problem or trial that cannot be solved alone.
And no one knows how the arrangements that Lennok and Jenny sowed in the shadows of this megalopolis will grow and help out in some way.
Like Oliviera and Antares, Lennok also understood why strong men who had already transcended the limits of the human species, even on their own, formed groups and gathered talented people.
[Aren’t you going to go home right away?]
Darby asked, noticing that Lennok’s footsteps outside District 49 were heading outside rather than inside.
“The experiment I’m going to do now is too dangerous to do in a home lab.”
[Toad House… … . I miss home… … .]
“That is not your house.”
Patting Darby’s tail as he muttered in a sullen voice, Lennok immediately moved on.
* * *
We arrived at an abandoned building built on a quiet street.
In the middle of a cold street where people don’t even come close.
The appearance of concrete piles and rebars scattered here and there clearly reveals this architectural behavior that has been rolled up after being built.
It’s a remote place that wouldn’t be strange even if all kinds of bullies and bullies used it as a hideout, but it’s surprisingly clean and dust-free.
An abandoned street in the 50th District, which has been continuously managed under the approval of the cartel.
The high-rise building where the Apostate monk Parden McQueen fought through the magnetic realm is not far from here.
After getting the position as an outside director, I felt relatively free in using the cartel’s commercial rights or territory.
Lennok had no intention of rotting the directorships he had obtained.
“Since the cartel headquarters have already made a statement, there probably won’t be many people going in and out of this street.”
In addition, after blocking the eyes and senses of the surroundings using Nix’s insignia and shadow magic, a simple training ground for Lennok is completed.
Lenok, who installed a simple barrier and security magic to add defense and neutralized the radio waves through Darby, raised his magic power again.
Darby, freed from Lennok’s arms, sat on top of the container and looked down at him.
Lennok, who had concentrated his mind in an instant, quickly began to change the magical arrangement within his body.
Chara la la rock!!
Lennok’s eyes cooled as he stared at the flow of magical energy that was quickly being assembled in the palm of his hand.
‘First attempt after coming out of the citadel.’
Beecher separated in time and space. In the ruins of the old world, Lennok succeeded in seeing the full cross-section of this world.
It means that the concept of time and space, the two pillars that support the world, has been explicitly understood and its operating principle has been visually judged.
It was tantamount to recognizing a specific approach to the two concepts that I had only vaguely felt.
‘It was unreasonable to touch the time right now, but the understanding of space is different.’
In search of the magic of time, he searched the traces of the church and chased the ruins, but there was no progress beyond obtaining specific data right away.
It is absurd that Lennok, who cannot even manipulate his own time, can tamper with the world’s time.
However, the story is different for the space system.
Unlike today, when both concepts of time, personal and world time, have not been grasped, space is different.
Personal coordinates, starting with Lenok himself. Centered coordinates around the world.
This is because the various space-related artifacts he had acquired so far had embodied these two spatial concepts to Lennok.
The five fingers of Enakpil, an artifact that made it possible to move through space with a consumptive concept.
The Archangel’s Compassion, a relic that activates material-only space shift.
And even the existence of the Pure Land Goddess Declaration, which designates a target and confines it in space on the condition of steady warming up and consumption of magical power.
Variation and application of space that could not be directly touched while seeing and feeling through the use of items.
While steadily remembering and recognizing the experience and sense of dealing with it, the sense of space that I had vaguely felt
finally crossed the reference point through the experience at the fortress.
“Whoa… … !!”
Wheein!!!
As Lennok bit his lip while breaking out in a cold sweat, a fierce engine-like noise echoed through Lennok’s body.
As much as the range of space being manipulated, the consumption of magic increased like crazy, but Lennok didn’t care.
The important thing is to burn mana and perceive the concept of space through intuition beyond the five senses.
A concrete concept established beyond the distant cognition and prediction unconsciousness that cannot be explained simply by the word sense moves little by little in my head.
It manipulates clear concepts engraved in the magician’s image and projects them with magic.
The most basic control method for dealing with the miracle called magic. However, what they are dealing with through manipulation is an area that no magician dares to venture into.
Reality moves according to the intention projected onto the space in front of your eyes.
Awesome profit… … !!
A grotesque noise, like a thick piece of iron being twisted.
At the same time, the landscape projected beyond Lennok’s hand twisted little by little and began to curl like paper crumpled.
Darby, who was looking down at the scene, also jumped up from his seat.
[Beyond cognition and even interference… … !]
She, who freely enters and leaves the database of the megalopolis, also clearly understands what it means for mere humans to touch space.
Lennok is now without anyone’s help or guidance. Only use your own talent and realization as a stepping stone.
It was no different from creating an order that deals with space.
It is as distant and difficult as drawing constellations in the night sky while walking along only dim lights in the dark.
In a situation where even the concept in front of your eyes cannot be clearly faced, it is to intuitively measure the reason of the world and touch the principle.
“Whoa… … !!”
Lennok’s whole body was drenched in sweat as he burned his mana with all his might.
The aftereffects of the exhilaration of being raised by concentrating on the whole mind without taking any medications attack the body as it is.
However, Lennok’s face was filled with an intense sense of achievement, enough to not show his emaciated complexion.
“like this… … !!”
In his hand, the haze of the twisted space was riding on the palm like a living life and shaking vaguely.
time and space. I started getting my hands on one of those two concepts that support the world’s time and space.
Proof that Lennok’s efforts and perseverance were never in vain.
The answer was in his hand that the time he had gone forward through enduring such hardships and hardships was not meaningless.
Raising a trembling hand, Lennok spoke to Darby.
“yet… … It’s impossible to manipulate properly, but it worked.”
[yes. It seems unmistakable.]
“Even though metastasis and freezing are difficult, it may be possible to push the space short itself. That is… … .”
A step instilling hope for new mobility in Lennok, who was unable to use any movement magic.
It meant that he might be able to obtain the true meaning of the spatial movement technique.
