Chapter 603

Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 603

Suspicious Engineer (1)

Lennok’s assertion that it is not difficult to surpass the average craftsman is not strange even if it sounds arrogant in some ways.

But instead of snorting, Mouser listened intently and nodded.

Mouser knows what a powerful wizard Lennok is and a skilled superman.

Mouser must also be aware of the fact that it is not common for a mage with that level of skill to speak nonsense.

“Yes, if you do business with that level of confidence, there will be no doubts. Never mind me and do the best you can.”

“If someone is looking for me, it would be easier for me to pretend I didn’t know. Or it wouldn’t hurt to come up with an excuse, like you were threatened.”

“You are making a very ominous noise... ... .”

“As the Mauser master knows, no one can hurt me unless I want to.”

Feeling the confidence beneath Lennok’s flat words, Mouser fell silent.

“So it’s more comfortable for me to feel free to run away if need be.”

“... ... Got it. If things go wrong, I will.”

“thank you.”

Mouser, who gave an unflattering reply, looked up at the ceiling of the studio and muttered.

“Anyway, this workshop that I gave you now was originally empty without an owner. It would be nice if someone would use it.”

“It’s very well-maintained for something without an owner.”

“yes.”

Mouser said in a slightly heavy voice.

“Because it was the workshop of the guy who went to the Blaber Magic Tower as an envoy with me.”

“... ... .”

In the end, only Mouser survived from the envoys of Machine City.

Was he still spending time managing the workshops of his colleagues who were with him that day?

He seemed to know why Mouser was such a popular craftsman that he was chosen as an envoy, and why he was willing to help Lennok even after all this time had passed.

But Lennok just nodded his head without showing any such emotion.

Mouser stared blankly at Lennok, then regained consciousness and turned around.

“Then I will go now. If you need help, feel free to contact my studio at any time.”

“All right.”

Before closing the door and seeing Mouser’s disappearance, I could hear someone walking from the workshop workbench.

It is not the back door where artisans come in and out, but the front door where work tables and stalls are located.

This is where Lenok, who got a job under cover, receives customers who come to hear word of mouth.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment as he stopped right in front of the workshop door.

Lennok listened to the sound of his opponent’s footsteps, put on the hood he had prepared in advance, and slightly lowered his gaze.

When combined with an iron mask that covers half of the face, it is difficult to recognize even though half of the face is maintained.

“Will this be enough?”

[Don’t worry, Master, I’ll be in charge of adjusting the movement of the inner parts of the mask.]

With Darby’s help, I adjust Ban’s appearance so that he looks like an altered human so that he can’t recognize his original face.

As long as he is receiving help from Mouser, he cannot greatly deviate from the class he knows.

That is why, instead of making a new identity or name, Lenok decided to work only as an anonymous craftsman who would work in this workshop district.

‘It’s impossible to know half the face from a photo or video unless someone has seen my face in person.’

Due to his strong target designation resistance ability, Lennok’s face is not properly captured on the screen or video, and it is impossible to recognize Ban’s face unless he is facing him with the naked eye.

The reputation and status of Kyeon-roe Apart from the fact that his major has been famous, in order to remember his face, he has no choice but to face Lenok in person.

Only in Balkan, because of Lennok’s distinctive appearance and unique magic, even if you see his face, you will know even if you don’t like it the moment you meet him in person

.

It is not difficult to pretend to be an artisan without renewing one’s status by simply adorning and changing one’s appearance.

While checking the appearance satisfactorily, the customer who was standing outside the studio also stood in front of the newsstand as if they had made up their minds.

Clap!!

Lennok opened the stall window and greeted the hesitant customer first.

“Do you have any equipment or artifacts you would like to entrust?”

It was time to work.

It’s natural, but there is no such thing as a legendary sword or a famous relic suddenly coming in as a request just because you made up your mind to work as an artisan.

Machine City Makina Workshop District is full of famous craftsmen known for their skills.

In such a competitive niche, most of the people who come to Lennok are those with tight pockets or exceptionally curious customers.

And in order to make his name known quickly among such craftsmen, he had no choice but to become a craftsman in a unique way that only Lenok could do.

‘If you stand out in secondary workshops such as renovation and maintenance, you can meet Meisters and their customers at the same time.’

Most of the superhumans who live and work in the machine city of Makina use almost all machine-made equipment or artifacts, befitting the stage.

If you don’t use weapons or equipment, you can often find cases where parts of your body are modified and replaced with magic engineering equipment or artifacts.

In other words, powerful equipment and sophisticated artifacts in this city are the means of indirectly revealing one’s status and hierarchy.

Therefore, if the fact that Lennok has excellent maintenance or remodeling skills is known, there is a high possibility that he will contact Makina’s executives without going through a complicated process.

‘For now, this is the best choice I can make.’

Machine City Makina itself has a closed atmosphere, and Lennok has no ties or foundations other than Mouser.

In order to quickly grasp Makina’s situation and gather information in a short time, she has no choice but to pretend to be a craftsman like this.

Of course, it wasn’t that there weren’t people from Machine City among the countless strongmen who faced Lennok, but that doesn’t mean they couldn’t ask for help from Maya Lenslet, who was a former executor.

It shouldn’t take a long time to pretend to be a craftsman, but that doesn’t mean that other efficient methods didn’t exist.

Lennok thought so and began to greet the guests who came with their equipment or firearms step by step.

What needs to be done is not very different from the essence of what Lennok thinks.

“This is a folding blade prepared by Cluster Workshop five years ago. If you keep using it, it bends to the left, but other repair shops have not found a problem.”

“It is not a problem with the blade itself.”

said Lennok, who was examining the retractable blade that looked like a giant cutter knife.

The lens inside the iron mask covered half of his face rotated, magnifying Lennok’s field of vision like a magnifying glass, examining the surface area of the blade in detail.

“The blade is a bit damaged because I often cut crustaceans, but the structure itself is not wrong.”

“okay.”

A man with a shaggy beard in a gruff voice asked curiously.

“By the way, how did you know that I often cut shellfish?”

“Using a folding blade itself means changing the blade periodically, keeping in mind the rapid wear and tear of the blade.”

said Lennok, turning over the blade joint to show a glimpse.

“In other words, you know that you have to cut something hard quite regularly. Usually in this case, there are many people who are engaged in industry or fishing rather than combat.”

“Huh.”

“Because of the salt between the blades, the blades do not fold well and creak, right? Even though it is adjacent to the sea in the machine city, I just thought that if I had to cut something hard, I would not process winged crayfish, a crustacean famous in the sea area.”

Asked the man who nodded his head with a blank expression at Lennok’s well-thought-out voice.

“Looking at it now, it seems that your father-in-law should have been working as a detective rather than a mechanic?”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

Saying that, Lennok rubbed the blade moderately, then held it out to the man again.

“Fixed. Take it.”

“yes? Isn’t it already?”

Saying that, the man who picked up the blade and pushed it around nodded with a slightly surprised expression.

“what? No, how can I do this with a few hand gestures... ... ?”

“I pasted a small magnet to the base of the folding blade.”

Lennok said as he pointed at the man’s mechanical arm.

“After measuring and calculating the degree of curvature and curvature of the blade, it is estimated that it was bent due to strong magnetism. I wonder if the work of cutting the crustaceans is handled next to a rather gigantic machine.”

“That’s right... ... After processing winged crayfish, I put them directly into the meat processing machine... ... .”

asked the man who had looked at Lennok like a god with a look of disbelief.

“Are you saying that the magnetism from the mechanism keeps my blade constantly bending periodically?”

“To be precise, I don’t think it’s because of the mechanical equipment, but maybe the strange magnetic field is generated when the mechanical arm and the equipment get entangled.”

said Lennok and shook his head.

“I don’t know the details unless I’ve been to the site myself, but just attaching a magnet of that size to the base of the blade will provide some balance.”

“thank you!!”

Even after that, Lennok invested his time as a craftsman other than the time needed to study Kaise’s pocket watch and acquire Makina’s engineering knowledge.

[Huh?]

Dabi, who was banging on the computer inside the workshop with her thick paws and organizing the sales and net profit for the day, tilted her head.

[Master, it seems that rumors about the workshop are getting a little strange here?]

“What do you mean?”

[Total sales and net profit are increasing rapidly, but I don’t think the cause is because of word of mouth, as the master thinks. ... .]

“This is a consulting company that only looks at the condition of the equipment and consults on all my problems, right?”

“... ... .”

At Darby’s words, Lennok inadvertently got up and headed for the computer, then turned his head again at the voice outside.

“Since 15 days ago, the zero point of the artifact I am using cannot be adjusted at all. Can you tell me why?”

Ironically, it was unexpected that Lennok’s intuition, rather than his maintenance skills, drew attention.

Customers with good equipment and information, riding on unusual reviews and word of mouth, began to come faster than Lennok thought.
