Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 763
Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 763
One-person Play (15)
A three-dimensional modeling studio located in the basement of the academy building.
A place used by university researchers to make prototypes before presenting their findings.
Even if you can’t create high-quality artifacts or items, it’s enough to check for errors in the basic design.
“Originally, it was prepared for the demonstration of the Department of Elements project at the time of the last agreement… … .”
Lennok opened his mouth as he stood in front of the machine’s remote screen and entered data.
“As I was conducting research, the performance was very different from what I initially thought, so I was a bit worried.”
profit!!
The press machine is operated, and the solid material is put into it and pressed with heat to harden it.
Lennok spoke again, slowly pressing down on the handle with both hands on the handle.
“I thought about it, but it seemed like it would be a good idea to make a third thesis with this topic.”
The work of concluding an agreement between Rabatenon and the Mage Tower and inspecting a project within the university.
It was a necessary procedure, but it was the result of thinking to put the name of the Magic Tower on the research results to be announced as Evan.
However, the agreement was unexpectedly concluded in a hurry, and Evan’s research results were not announced in time.
‘I had to deal with the traces urgently because I recognized the guide’s ghost at the Necromantics Department.’
Recalling the memories of needlessly inflating notoriety while trying to erase the traces quickly, Lennok turned around.
Thanks to that, I was able to attach a plausible justification to the ‘invention’ that I couldn’t complete even after setting the direction, so should I say it’s a blessing in disguise?
“I’m going to be away for a while for related research, would you mind?”
“You mean this, Evan.”
The dean, who was watching from behind with a happy expression, nodded happily.
“From the beginning, I was determined not to interfere in any way with the schedule. You all have your own thoughts, just like last time.”
“… … .”
“But if you need anything, I would like you to tell me in advance. Then I will use all my connections to find things or people.”
“I don’t know if I need any special preparations. The official place for the presentation may have to be adjusted later.”
The other day, I was able to rent a big stage called the Magic Engineering Fair, so I didn’t have to prepare anything else.
It is unknown whether such an event will be on the schedule when Lennok makes an announcement after visiting the military city.
If you want to set the stage for your thesis presentation later, you may have to make your own arrangements here.
“I still don’t care how you’re being treated in academia.”
However, the dean shook his head in amazement at Lennok’s words.
“It has been a long time since derivative research based on the two theories you presented has become one of the mainstream trends in academia. How would you react if I told you that you were going to publish your next thesis?”
“… … .”
“There is no need to rent a seat for an official event. Even if I secretly spill words about the thesis, they will scramble to send their intentions to participate.”
“I can’t help but get attention, but I think it would be nice to borrow an official position… … .”
Even more so, Evan’s status is a position where he has to pay attention to the reputation of those around him, unlike Van or Victor.
Trying to stand out too much alone or being seen with such a personality can cause trouble in the future.
Lennok muttered something troubled, and the dean immediately changed his words.
“Then, how about participating in the seminar that will be held after completing the thesis?”
“… … You mean the seminar?”
“Our school regularly assigns three or four seminars every month. It’s like having a discussion about a subject that has a different opinion in the academic world.”
As if the questions and answers were prepared in advance, the answers flowed out smoothly.
It was a natural reaction, as if he had thought of other options from the beginning.
“I will put my name on one of the presenters without telling them about the thesis. And wouldn’t it be fine to bring out the thesis in the presentation?”
“… … Would it be all right if I proceeded without saying that it was an official thesis presentation?”
“Of course not.”
The dean laughed.
“But isn’t the process important? If necessary, I can temporarily adjust the rules myself.”
“Professors and researchers ahead of the paper presentation… … .”
“I’ll try to adjust the timing somehow. Everyone will want to step up when you tell them you are going to the seminar.”
“… … .”
Looking back at the dean’s expression, which was sparkling with anticipation, Lennok fell silent.
The purpose of talking about the third thesis to the dean itself was the process of making an alibi for leaving for the Gunryeong City.
It is difficult even if you are excited as if you could publish your thesis right away.
At the right time, it seemed necessary to calm the dean’s expectations a little.
“It is difficult to expect too much. It’s not that I’m going to announce right away, but I’m just starting to prepare… … .”
“Okay, when you’re ready, just fill out the outline and bring it to the office. Understand?”
From the first visit to Lennok, the expression on his face seemed to be bright and lively.
Apart from the partnership with the Mage Tower, which didn’t end smoothly, I was genuinely looking forward to this achievement.
Looking at the dean adjusting the passwords and security of the systems throughout the studio with quick gestures, Lennok opened his mouth as if he had suddenly thought of it.
“Oh, and I didn’t tell you, I met a member of the Technical Advisory Committee the other day.”
When the power of the press was turned off, the voices of the two resonated in the studio, which became quiet in an instant.
“She said that there are quite a few people who don’t like my research achievements or me.”
“… … hmm. I guess so.”
The anti-gravity thesis published under the name of Evan Bylon became a huge topic, but not everyone can accept the achievement positively.
As airships begin to roam as new roads open in the sky of the Balkans, various businesses that have been responsible for transportation will be excited.
Not only the automobile industry, but also numerous subcontractors under the engine manufacturers have no choice but to suffer some loss.
Even if they are not directly related, there must be people who do not like the market shaking itself.
Unlike the last time, there is a possibility that he will use his hand to check or put down Evan.
The dean also guessed what Lennok was saying and immediately hardened his face.
“If you inquire through your friends in the Central Council, you may be able to identify them to some degree. If you hire experts separately-”
“No. It doesn’t mean that.”
Lennok immediately shook his head at the dean’s words.
“Since the interests held by the city council members are so diverse, it is highly likely that the central council has not clearly determined its stance. I definitely felt that when I presented my last thesis.”
At the time of the fair’s announcement, some senators had a bad reaction to anti-gravity technology.
It was not because he did not know the value of anti-gravity technology, but rather because he knew very well the changes and aftermath that the thesis would bring.
Those with power enough to rise to key positions in the central council are old masters who are accustomed to seeing everything going on in the city from a macroscopic perspective.
Although there are times when new technologies or theories come out hostile, fearing that they might invade their interests.
There are also a significant number of lawmakers who are reluctant to see changes beyond their control sweep across the Balkans.
Apart from having a close relationship with the dean, there must be a number of senators who are reluctant to discuss this agenda in their own way.
It was highly likely that it would not be of much help to get information from them about which side was not pleased with Evan.
“I would rather openly check on or dislike me, so please actively share information with those involved.”
“what… … ?”
“Are you sure you didn’t intend to relay the news throughout the Balkans after the thesis was completed?”
“Hmm, not really. Of course, if you don’t want it, I must say that I have no intention of forcing you… … .”
Even if you say that, it seems that you have already finished thinking about how to conduct the seminar.
“The more eyes watching this, the safer it is.”
Seeing the dean clearing his throat as if he had been stabbed, Lennok laughed.
“So I am more comfortable with people who are hostile to me than with people who have difficulty knowing how to react. I wanted to tell you that.”
“… … .”
The dean, who had been silent, looked at Lennok in silence and shook his head.
“Awesome… … . I am sure that no researcher can say that about his thesis.”
“Is that so?”
Lennok asked as he slowly turned off the press and stood up.
Lenok said after checking the shape of the solids inside the press and pressing the ventilation button to release the heat.
“I thought it was something I had been doing since entering this university.”
“… … .”
The days when I was thrown into this city for the first time and recklessly searched for books in the library.
What kind of existence was Lennok, who was appointed assistant professor with the help of Aris at the time, at this school?
The dean also understood Lennok’s meaning and hardened his expression faintly, but Lennok muttered indifferently.
“Maybe it is because of the topic of this thesis. If I had to question it, I wouldn’t be announcing my own achievements.”
“… … What was the subject of the alternative thesis?”
“Isn’t this a thesis presented in the sense of completing the master’s and doctoral integrated course?”
Lennok laughed.
“I put the experience I gained while teaching undergraduates. I hope we can get good results.”
“… … okay After all, it is your intention to proceed with the presentation.”
The dean gave a small sigh, reviewed the studio’s security one last time, and left.
Even if Lennok doesn’t publish his thesis right away, he’s probably trying to make sure he’s prepared.
He is a person who has not yet lost his innocence as a scholar despite having accumulated considerable experience and status.
There must be a reason why Aris chose to serve as a chair professor at this university.
Clap!
Only after the thick door of the workshop was closed did Lennok take his eyes off the press and raise his head.
‘There’s something I promised the Mage Tower at the time of the agreement, so I guess I’ll need to change the conditions a little during the paper presentation process.’
A promise to exclusively announce Evan’s research achievements and ‘inventions’ that were previously planned.
As he intends to turn it into a third thesis and submit it, he must convince the Mage Tower officials of this fact and ask for their understanding.
Of course, there was no need to convince Lennok himself, but he would have to briefly explain it to those who knew the contents of the agreement, such as Jenny and Tatiana.
‘I have about a week to spare before leaving for Yorta. Until then, I just need to finish organizing and create an external cause for both identities to leave.’
The Headlane River, which must be crossed to cross over to the Gunryeong City, overflows at a specific interval, so it is necessary to set a schedule according to the timing.
So, for now, pretending to write a thesis, go into confinement, make an appropriate excuse for the magic tower, and then disappear secretly.
Chii profit!!
As heat escapes from the compressor and air circulates, sweat drips down.
Lennok picked up the cooled, molded solid from the press and looked down at it thoughtfully.
It’s large enough to fit in one hand. It seems to be portable, but it is heavy enough to feel uncomfortable to carry around.
If you want, you can install a pre-designed system here and experiment with it… … .
“Neither can I. It’s a good size, but it’s heavier than I thought.”
Lennok tossed the best solids into the trash can and turned his gaze to the crafting device.
“Once the parts are mounted inside, it will weigh more than this. Let’s choose a design that can be a little lighter.”
[Since a while ago, we’ve only been selecting relatively light designs.]
Dabi grumbled as she climbed onto the blueprints.
[To make it lighter than this, the capacity or output must be further reduced. It’s impossible to leave room for updates, right?]
“Certainly… … Making the hardware separately makes things tricky.”
Both of Lenock’s previous papers were research results that focused on theory rather than real things.
At the time of announcing the thesis on anti-gravity, the engine borrowed from Lennok’s first thesis had been commercialized, so there was no difficulty in obtaining samples necessary for demonstration.
This time, as he is experimenting with new techniques and theories, Lenok must design and make the samples himself.
Of course, there was no blockage from the start as Darby assisted by bringing the necessary formats from the central network.
The process of adjusting the figures that can be realized between the ideal and reality is inevitable.
Before leaving for Yorta, you should at least refine your achievements to the point where you can submit a summary.
“… … I can’t help it.”
While looking at the drawing, Lenok took up a pen and quickly began erasing the internal parts.
“We redesign with minimal parts left. Considering the theme of the thesis, the sample I am making now should be very light.”
[I’m the one who adjusts all design errors. If you keep doing that, I’ll change the order at will.]
Despite grumbling, Darby immediately began revising the design entered into the press.
“… … hmm?”
Lennok tilted his head as he gazed at the blueprints that changed in real time.
Seeing the designs Darby was mixing, it felt like something was fitting in my head.
In the circuit conversion process, if the process is elaborated to the limit, matching the output does not seem as difficult as it seems.
Anyway, since Lennok intends to touch the process himself, it’s not a big problem, but the important thing is the module that Lennok can’t make.
As Darby said, if the capacity is reduced slightly to prove that the theory in the thesis is actually implemented–
Lennok muttered, looking at it with his chin on his head.
“Do you think we can announce this right now if we procure one or two necessary parts?”
[…] … yes?]
