Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 688

The Witch and the Magic Tower (2)

‘Blaver’s Magic Tower Five-Pronged Beads Tatiana Chiglet.

A War Mage well-known for his bombardment techniques on the central front, and a veteran mage who survived countless battlefields.

Lennok was not too surprised by the shocking news that such a witch of fire was running away from the Mage Tower.

It was because he knew that she had been skeptical about the work of the Mage Tower for a long time and tried to escape the Ivory Tower.

In fact, she tried to quit the rosary, but was thrown into the operation of the handbook well according to the order of her teacher, Topju.

In the process, he was captured alive by Seina, a priestess of the church, and almost became an apostle.

As the Pandaemonium Victor, Lennok watched the things she went through bit by bit.

Although it has never been revealed, the rift between her and the Magic Tower must have already reached an irreversible level.

So, rather than the fact that Tatiana left the Mage Tower, Lennok was naturally interested in the object she carried and ran away with.

‘Phoenix Hall (鳳凰殿) of the lord of the ancestral tower... ... .’

The Palace of the Phoenix. Even more so, it was the property of the previous Mage Tower owner.

At first glance, the fact that it is an unusual ghost seems unmistakable.

All the more, if Tatiana had fled with it and was being pursued, it must have been of great value.

But Lennok’s expression was ambiguous as he quickly scanned her appearance.

‘... ... I don’t feel anything special.’

I don’t know who the previous owner of the Blaber Magic Tower was, but he must have been a monster who reached level 8 or higher by transcending the hierarchy.

If it was something left by such a great wizard, it was only natural for it to flow around with unconcealable magic or energy.

However, there was no trace of Tatyana, who leaned in looking for an empty seat, looking exhausted.

Of course, Tatiana is also a wizard who has completed the hierarchy, so she must have a talent for hiding magic, but at this distance, Lennok’s senses cannot be avoided.

If you can’t recognize it even with Lennok’s sensitivity, it must mean that you didn’t have it from the beginning, or that the way you hid it exceeded the odds.

And, in Lennok’s opinion, the latter seemed more likely.

‘In order to hide a powerful artifact, a procedure close to sealing is required, not concealment. If Tatiana is being pursued, she probably won’t be able to afford that.’

“Half that... ... .”

Jenny also quickly spoke to Lennok, as if she had checked the people sneaking around Tatiana.

But Lennok nodded quietly, knowing that fact.

“Wait a minute.”

“Doesn’t anyone know?”

“... ... We need to find out for what purpose they came here.”

Within Jenny’s tavern, at a measurable distance, Lennok can intervene immediately in whatever happens.

If those who were aware of Tatiana’s existence and approached from all sides were sane, they wouldn’t try to fight.

In the meantime, Tatiana gave Jordan a simple order, took the glass, and began to tilt it.

Those who approached her, instead of hastily surrounding Tatiana, just quietly settled down and watched from afar.

In the meantime, one of the young men who had been chatting at the next table moved to sit across from her very casually.

“Sister, would it be all right for a little while?”

Tatiana’s red eyes lifted through her droopy hair.

The young man held out a small photo from the inside of her arms, not caring about her cold reaction.

“It’s a satellite factory secretly being built by Tentacion. There’s a big payout on the condition that you steal the satellite’s engine parts statement.”

“... ... .”

“I need a wizard. Won’t you go with me?”

The young man naturally sipped another glass of whiskey and smirked.

“I came from a military background after all. Just look at the angle. How long have you been on the battlefield?”

“... ... .”

“Warmages are treated everywhere. He is familiar with the concept of operations, has adapted to organizational activities, and has very quick situational judgment.”

He held out a coin shining in platinum in his arms and whispered.

“He is the best talent in this kind of operation. I was looking for someone like you. I’ll set the ratio so you won’t be disappointed, so let’s work together.”

A cool attitude of quickly and simply explaining the operation and giving the down payment first without hesitation.

It’s an impeccable proposal even on this street full of all kinds of scammers and outlaws.

If you came to this bar looking for work, it’s a great request that there’s no reason to view it negatively.

But Tatiana just sips her glass in spite of the young man’s words.

“The military dagger of the waist dance.”

She opened her mouth after a long time with the young man patiently waiting for an answer.

“A skeleton with three hanging heads. It’s the symbol of the Cerberus Corps massacre, isn’t it?”

“... ... !!”

“An unofficial special forces unit that specializes in slaughter and plunder operations. It’s not a famous place, but the pattern is unique, so I remember it.”

Tatiana rubbed her temples and waved her hand, looking tired.

Her red eyes shone darkly.

“I’ve caught and killed a few of them myself.”

“... ... There seems to be a misunderstanding.”

The young man quickly looked around and replied.

“I am no longer a member of the corps, and I have not participated in many operations. You’re a different person than you think.”

“... ... .”

“There is a saying that the anti-gravity engine technology developed in Balkan was applied to the newly built satellite this time. Aren’t you interested too?”

The appearance of a young man who tries to persuade by revealing some of the information that needs to be told only after participating in the operation.

It would be impossible if he did not feel the great potential of the red-haired wizard sitting in front of him.

However, Tatiana only smiled coldly at the young man’s words.

Instead, he looked at the three shining red eyes that were exactly the skull pattern hanging from the dagger and said.

“I heard that for every 100 people killed, a red kill mark is attached to the skull.”

“... ... .”

“It’s too out of fashion even on the battlefield to be so proud of it. Do you know?”

Evidence that well over 300 humans were slaughtered on the battlefield.

However, the quality of the Cerberus Corps is particularly bad because they carry the decapitated human beings for counting.

Murderers who cut off the heads of others for their notoriety have always been treated as trash, even on the battlefield where all sorts of obscenities and deaths are rampant.

She was secretly laughing at the young man, saying that he was not a person involved in the military.

“Call me Jenny. A classmate?”

“To be precise, a friend of a friend.”

Tatiana smiled and lightly took Jenny’s outstretched hand.

As soon as Jenny gently held her hand, he nodded.

“He is from the military. Warmage?”

“... ... Oh, are you recognizing right away?”

“The atmosphere and the way you shake hands without showing the back of your hand are famous on this floor.”

Jenny, who responded as if it was not a big deal, put down the bottle she had brought and said.

“It’s not because of calluses, so don’t worry.”

“Hey... ... You talk pretty funny.”

Tatiana grinned and turned her gaze to Lennok.

“If you are a broker, you must be quick to hear the news from outside. Have you heard of me?”

Jenny nodded.

“I know that he is a wizard who made a name for himself on the central front. Is it called the witch of fire? Class once explained briefly before... ... .”

“I met him briefly during the process of arranging the affairs of the Blaber Magic Tower.”

Lennok briefly explained to Jenny, keeping his eyes fixed on Tatiana.

“Around the time I went on a business trip to help an agent work... ... In terms of time, it was right after we dealt with Parden McQueen.”

After investigating the West Continent branch of the Blaver Mage Tower with Evelyn, didn’t he deal with Turan the White Lion and Zionis?

In the process, Tatiana, who was dispatched late because the elders of the Magic Tower in the Western Continent Branch died, took care of the situation.

Recognizing that Tatiana felt skeptical about the work of the Mage Tower at the time, Lennok had left the word to find her if she wanted a new job.

Tatiana, who had been quietly listening to Lennok, grinned.

“You have a good memory. Do you remember that in detail?”

“What’s new?”

Lennok stared at her, leaning lightly against the garden wall with his glass in his hand.

“What do you want to say? Or are you really thinking of collaborating with me now?”

“... ... .”

Tatiana slowly nodded as she drank the whiskey she was holding.

“okay... ... Since I came this far, I must be honest. I need help.”

“What is going on?”

“Do you know anyone among the high-ranking officials in the Mage Tower?”

“... ... You mean a high-ranking official in the Magic Tower?”

Tatiana turned her gaze to Jenny.

“I hear you are an excellent broker. It doesn’t matter if it’s among your connections. I have to secretly contact the mage of the top level of the Mage Tower.”

“I’m sorry, but that’s not our area of expertise in the first place.”

Jenny scratched her cheek.

“In the first place, the Mage Tower’s connections are not ours, but they should know more in detail.”

“If you contact me through the line or contact I have, traces will remain.”

Tatiana answered with a slightly subdued expression.

“I need an informal line. At least if you can directly contact a mage qualified to succeed the tower owner... ... .”

“What are you talking about, a wizard qualified to succeed the tower owner?”

Jenny laughed and rowed the whale.

“It’s easy to say, you know how strict the academic world is for the preservation of the Mage Tower. Rather, you should know better.”

“... ... .”

“Even the recognition of three or more mage towers deep enough to create their own sect, and a clear legitimacy that no one can deny... ... . Wasn’t it your business to look at genealogies as tricky as the great nobility of the empire?”

“yes.”

Tatiana nodded.

“But there are definitely people among the high-ranking officials of the Mage Tower who want something to prove their legitimacy.”

“... ... .”

“Those who have the ability to build a new ivory tower, but are waiting for their time due to lack of various conditions.”

It was only then that Jenny understood Tatiana’s words and hardened slightly.

“... ... This is a dangerous story. If you do it wrong, you can pretend to be a group with a large magic tower.”

Tatiana did not answer. Jenny’s gaze changed even more sharply.

“No, you already brought Chuck. yes?”

At the point where you don’t know the situation properly, you hit the situation that goes back to a few words conversation.

Jenny seems to be more adept at grasping and responding to this situation than Lennok, who heard Hirea’s message.

“What are you going to do with the class?”

Jenny, who had been looking at Tatiana with narrow eyes, glanced at Lennok.

“In my experience, things are moving much more quickly in these cases. If you don’t refuse, things might get worse.”

“... ... .”

Lennok was silent for a moment instead of answering.

Perhaps accepting that silence as an answer, Jenny let out a small sigh and placed her hand on the laptop.

“good. I’ll find out if there is an unofficial line of wizards currently qualified to succeed the Mage Tower. But contact will have to be made alone.”

“Do that.”

“Whoa, no matter how many people you know, how could you secretly contact a high-ranking person in the Mage Tower... ... .”

“There are names I know. Can I ask you to investigate first?”

“Write down a list. The Mage Tower you belong to, your rank, your gender, your age. Oh, and your place of origin.”

“Wait a minute... ... . I’m not familiar with computers... ... this is so... ... .”

Tatiana clumsily pressing the keyboard with her index finger while sweating profusely, and Jenny beside her asking for the information she wants at high speed.

“Come to think of it, I thought of something.”

Lennok, who had been silently watching the scene from behind, opened his mouth.

“Three days ago, I received permission from the Senate of the Central Council to build the Mage Tower. Does this matter?”

At that moment, the voices of Jenny and Tatiana, who were tapping on their laptops and exchanging opinions, suddenly stopped.

Chaeng!!

The glass broke from Tatiana’s hand and whiskey spilled over the keyboard, but Jenny didn’t get angry.

The two of them stared blankly at Lennok, like people who had heard an absurd, absurd lie.
