“..........”
“If you worked with Ban, you would know. This is definitely quality over quantity. Just know they want the right stuff.”
“He is quick-tempered. First of all, why don’t we get the things we promised and talk?”
Saying that, Evelyn handed over the security bag and a letter that were lying under her feet to the two of them.
“The module containing Craig’s artificial intelligence data, as promised in advance. And it’s a VIP ticket to the underground auction house.”
Jenny quickly opened the two items to check the contents and nodded.
“There’s nothing to say about the module side... the auction house tickets are genuine. I never thought you’d come to me so quickly.”
“What do the enforcement officers think? The number of dangerous items we bought there must be hundreds.”
If you can’t steal security items released on the market, will you buy them directly from the auction house? It is a way of handling work worthy of a public official in the Balkans.
While Jenny handed over the module and ticket to Lennok, Evelyn turned on the tablet lying on the desk and passed it to the two of them.
“It’s an electronic ledger that organizes the equipment and artifacts we have here. Take a look and tell me if there is anything you like.”
Saying that, Evelyn raised the teacup again.
“Negotiations will start again then.”
“Hmm... Let’s see if I picked out enough good stuff to say that.”
After saying that, Jenny picked up the tablet and started flipping through the catalog that quickly popped up on the screen.
Lennok clutched his throbbing hair and watched her flip through the tablet.
She didn’t say anything to him and was flipping through the screen, but apparently, rather than examining each item in detail, she looked at how many items fell short of her standards.
As I was looking at it from the side, I saw a lot of various equipment mainly used by agents, such as various firearms, defense equipment, communication devices, and vehicles.
If it is an item that is recorded in the ledger, it is natural that it is basically an item that the agent has thought about and considered for use.
Jenny quickly flipped through the dozens of pages of the catalog and nodded.
“Except for the number of mass-produced items on the firearms side, the overall level is not bad. It seems that the items in the workshop are also quite visible. If it’s this much, I’ll take it instead of cash.”
As she said that, she handed the tablin completely over to Lennok.
“half. Just pick what you want I’ll look at it and tell you exactly how much it is. Let’s not lose a single penny.”
“Jennie.....”
Would it be an illusion if her mischievous smile felt particularly reassuring today?
Lennok nodded involuntarily, realizing for the first time in her a strong trust that he had never felt before.
Jenny, who was close to Lennok’s side, began to explain every object that caught her eye.
“Duke 071 is in the premium category among the Dyke Corporation products that produce monomolecular cutters. The production itself is small, and recently the entire production line has been moved, so demand is skyrocketing.”
“Canelo Visor 3rd generation is a product that has only recently started to be released to the civilian market among military goggles equipped with AI functions. Its performance itself has been verified, and its durability in harsh environments can be said to be the best among products in its class.”
“The Miller IV is the most highly regarded among self-defense pistols. It usually exists in the form of a bracelet, but it adopts a new design transformation technology in which it is disassembled into cubic pieces according to the user’s brain waves and then reassembled. I have never used this myself.”
Lennok and Evelyn looked at her with curious eyes as Jenny noticed where Lennok’s eyes were reaching and recited explanations one by one.
I can’t help but be surprised that she, who usually doesn’t show off at all, suddenly starts explaining all kinds of equipment as if she’s been waiting for it.
“There are things I come to know naturally while working as a broker, and I am looking for them and studying them separately. In particular, since this kind of equipment industry is diversely distributed regardless of freelancers and institutions, it is also a standard for estimating remuneration and budget costs.”
“don’t worry. That’s why I came all the way here by following my class.”
“okay. I hope so...”
Evelyn chewed the carrot in silence with a weak face.
Even an archer who shoots an arrow running through the night sky of the city government cannot be free from the lowly interests of the city.
In this chaotic city where monsters like her lurk, there weren’t many things that could be solved simply by force.
Especially for those who exert influence on both sides, like agents.
So Lennok understood the sense of responsibility and exhaustion she felt.
The meaning of the title of ‘outside advisor’ she had placed above Lennok’s head.
“Anyway, it’s surprising.”
Evelyn turned her head toward Lennok, apparently feeling energized after eating some fiber.
“I never thought you would be so interested in firearms.”
“what?”
“It’s not common to be interested in shooting while wielding such powerful magic. You can carry around a revolver as a secondary armament, but it’s rare to choose a sniper rifle at all.”
“.........”
It was hard to explain, so Lennok kept his mouth shut.
What reason would he have to bother explaining here that the efficiency he gained through the shooting assist magic surpassed the hassle of simply carrying a gun?
Such a question was meaningless to Lennok after he had been able to carry it by giving it lightening and shrinking magics to firearms.
However, the reason why I chose a sniper rifle among them must be because of Evelyn’s strong sniper ability that she showed in Trade Center.
Even Lennok was coveted for its powerful long-distance support ability, which accurately suppresses targets over several kilometers.
If you use this powerful sniper rifle in combination with his secondary shooting magic, it will be possible to modify the power to suit Lennok’s taste.
Seeing Lennok like that, Evelyn quietly opened her mouth.
“If you want to learn about sniping, it wouldn’t hurt to join an agent. He’s an enforcement officer and there’s no jerk who can’t handle a gun. If not, I could teach you myself...”
“Hey, what are you doing in front of my clients?”
“Stay still. Isn’t the important thing half the doctor? It would be the loss of the entire city for a wizard as powerful as me to act as he pleases.”
Lennok stared blankly at the two who started bickering again, then shook his head and picked up the teacup in front of him.
It’s because there was something realizing when you think about it along with Hina’s reaction to teasing her for not knowing how to ride a bike in the past.
Maybe it’s because I’ve only shown how easy it is to handle everything so far.
Others seemed quite curious about the fact that there was something Lennok couldn’t do, or that he was trying to learn something.
If you can accept this kind of teasing a few times and increase the intimacy of others, it’s not that much of a loss business.
In fact, the atmosphere of the seat, which was quite stiff, was softening with the words Evelyn and Jenny exchanged.
It wouldn’t be strange to want a colleague with some humanity rather than Lenok, who thoroughly hid his flaws and only emphasized his strengths.
So, Lennok peered out the window silently, listening to the conversation in one ear.
The hard work is over.
It didn’t seem too bad to stop and look around at this moment when he had been rewarded for his hard work.
