Handover (22)

“Oh no....”

Luisen’s declaration that Professor Raphael will be appointed for the handover process of Bylon Research Institute.

Raphael, who couldn’t speak properly and was gaping, muttered with an embarrassed expression.

“What do you mean by that? “The city council selected me to lead the handover of the Bylon Institute?”

“Not a bad offer.”

“No, you can’t just agree there!”

As Lennok nodded, Raphael protested fiercely.

“Strictly speaking, I am an outsider with no connection to the research institute. For the handover, it would be better to entrust it to an insider like Dr. Hayward...!!”

“Oh, that’s impossible.”

“Why!”

“If we are to be honest, this applies to all personnel officially affiliated with the research institute.”

Luisen just shook his head.

“Dr. Hayward is clearly the person who signed an employment contract with the research institute. “In particular, it is a human ‘asset’ that must be formally transferred to Professor Bylon.”

“Now assets?”

While Raphael was speechless at that expression and opened his eyes wide, Luisen smiled softly.

“It would not be appropriate in many ways to directly hand over assets whose ownership is scheduled to be transferred to Professor Bylon.”

“....”

Raphael’s expression suddenly became stiff as he understood the meaning of those words.

This is because I clearly felt how the Senate of the Central Assembly is currently viewing them.

An explanation that is impossible unless Hayward and other researchers are treated as mere tools.

A young man named Louisen, who had been struggling with Lennoc, realized that he was no different from the lawmakers.

Raphael muttered, staggering from shock.

“Are you saying that because I am an outsider, I can be entrusted with handing over the research institute? “What kind of nonsense-”

“Professor Raphael is a scholar who made his name known by establishing the parallel theory of magical arrangement, and is a person with a high reputation in academia.”

Luisen ignored Raphael and explained again to Lennok.

“He is someone who has been officially invited to the research institute to give a lecture, and he is also one of the very few officials who is fully aware of the current situation and has observed it from the sidelines.”

“....”

Luisen nodded as he rolled up and folded the scroll he was holding.

“Considering the complex nature of the current situation, we concluded that Professor Bylon and Mr. Van were the only candidates with whom both would be satisfied.”

“...hmm.”

Luisen’s expression wavered for a moment in response to Lennok’s reaction as he tilted his head without saying a word.

Contrary to ignoring Raphael and Hayward, he focuses heavily on Lennok.

“If there is any part of this council’s recommendations that you don’t like-”

“No, rather than that... I think the idea itself is truly council-like.”

Lennok stared at Luisen’s smiling face and couldn’t help but chuckle.

This is because I was able to quickly see through what Lewisen had just said and the intention that came out in this way in the Senate.

“But it’s not that I don’t understand. “It’s usually a matter of nature.”

“....”

The city council is not trying to resolve this situation by simply handing over the Bylon Institute.

They were trying to compensate by tying Raphael’s talent to the research institute beyond transferring the entire human resources and facilities belonging to the research institute.

Raphael is an excellent theoretical researcher recognized by Lennok and a professor with a humane character.

However, he is also a talented researcher with a strong temperament as a researcher, so that he does not hesitate in matters of interest.

The Central Council must have recognized Raphael’s disposition and thought they could use it in a helpful way.

The justification added by Luisen did not make sense, but its essence lay in the fact that Raphael’s personal belongings would be tied to the research institute and given as a gift.

“I will notify Evan Bylan of this matter. “Now that we have confirmed the transfer of ownership of the institute, what happens next is a matter for us to decide.”

Lennok responded and looked away.

“However, I think the offer depends on whether Professor Raphael accepts it.”

“That is correct.”

Raphael suddenly came to his senses and glared at Luisen with a displeased expression.

“Trying to do things your way without my permission is like me throwing away the city council’s responsibility!!”

“....”

“I hate to say it myself, but I am a very busy person. There are many people calling from all over, many promises, and even retaliation-”

“Retaliation?”

I know you’re very excited, but are you really planning on saying the name of that organization directly here?

At that moment, Lennok was watching with interest to see how far Raphael was planning to go when he went on a rampage, and Luisen was tilting his head.

Raphael, desperately grasping for reason, hurriedly changed his words while stuttering.

“There are people who have a grudge against me and want to take revenge!!”

“....”

“Of course, I accepted the lecture because I wanted to meet Professor Bylan, but the city council is forcing me to play a role like this-!!”

“Ah, I have already received confirmation from the Senate regarding that part.”

“What?”

Luisen calmly interrupted Raphael and opened the scroll again.

“Where was it written... Ah, it’s like this.”

“No, I have no intention of accepting it, so what kind of confirmation did I get?”

“You have been to the Green Belt inside Balkan for joint research with druids, right?”

Raphael’s mouth suddenly closed at Luisen’s words.

“I understand that you received advice from the Senate several times to obtain access rights.”

“....”

Luisen nodded, looking at Raphael, who was dripping with cold sweat.

“The Senate asked the professor for cooperation regarding what happened at that time.”

“That...”

Raphael’s eyes twirled.

“It is true that I received some help, but it is also true that there was a problem because I came out of Greenbelt a little later than scheduled-” “I

understand that the professor brought a druid with him on this visit due to work at the time.”

Lucien said as he closed the scroll again.

“....”

“Now that Professor Bylon knows that he is under the protection of Lightning to this extent, his thoughts will change a little. In fact, the biggest problem is that people who should have been in the grave a long time ago are still walking around with canes as if they were showing off...”

As Silford said that, he laughed, pointing to Lennok’s cane and his own cane.

“Now that I think about it, we are getting one of our own. “It’s not your place to say anything, is it?”

“....”

Lennok, ignoring the magician’s rambling nonsense, became lost in thought.

Unlimited concessions from the Central Council. However, this was an achievement that should have been achieved at the time when the research institute was established in Bylon’s name.

Lennok also had no intention of going forward from the beginning unless it meant stealing the entire lab and taking it into his own hands.

Isn’t it because they thought that it was an asset that would soon be in their hands that they had taken advantage of the researchers and the forces protecting the institute?

However, there were some parts that did not make it appropriate to discuss that fact with the status of the current class.

What remains is the question of receiving a clear explanation and report on what the Central Council has done here –

“Okay.”

Lennok, who slowly calmed down his magic, tilted his head back.

“I will visit the Senate soon. “I will hear about the work at the research institute, so please select the key officials and bring me a list.”

“Heh, that part is not my responsibility.”

The magician spoke slyly and grabbed the shoulder of Luisen, who was standing next to him.

“Senator Azamaha. “What do you think?”

“yes? No, I don’t know anything yet...”

“If you don’t know, you should find out.”

“what?”

“I want you to know.”

Before Luisen could respond, Silford grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and threw him away.

For a moment, Luisen’s body shrunk as if it were being sucked into a hole, and then disappeared, leaving behind only a single scream.

Silford placed his hands on his hips and nodded with a proud look.

“Do not worry. “I sent you on an errand to find out, so you will do well.”

Lennok looked at Silford and said.

“Even if I didn’t do that, I wouldn’t have killed him. “I’m not interested enough to need to do anything.”

“yes? “I don’t know what you’re talking about-”

“I was saying that your mediocre acting is more annoying.”

“Haha, was that too explicit?”

Silford laughed out loud with an embarrassed expression.

This is because it was quickly discovered that the act of forcing Luisen away was to protect Luisen from Lennok.

Lennok smiled coldly at the magician.

“You’re treating him like you’re going to kill him. “I’m not the type of person who needs to cut off the messenger’s head to relieve my anger.”

“Of course, I’m not saying that’s the case.”

Silford emphasized with a smile.

“There are quite a few people who don’t think it’s strange when you show up like that.”

“....”

“The reason why the city council’s decision was delayed today is because opinions were divided in the Senate, which took time. “If it had not been for the intervention of the Senate, things would not have ended like this.”

“Do you want to show off in front of me?”

“It can’t be. “If you hadn’t rejected the position of agent in the first place, I wouldn’t have had the job.”

Silford gently put on his fedora.

“It’s good to know, though, that there are significant differences in perception among members of Congress who have never met you. What should I say about the reputation of fastness in this city...”

“I know.”

Lennok chuckled as he watched Silford choose his words.

“To some extent, I brought this upon myself.”

[Eh. Did Master know too?]

“...Hmm. “I didn’t necessarily mean it that way.”

While Lennok ignored the spirit’s question, which seemed to be asked out of genuine curiosity, Silford slowly changed his stance.

“The idea was that if you understand that your name has a special meaning in this city, you will be able to more easily understand the sensitive reactions of those around you.”

Silford, who had spoken up to that point, looked at Lennok slightly and asked.

“I guess what I said wasn’t too difficult to understand, right?”

“I think I said it earlier.”

Lennok answered with a smile.

“That attitude of trying to console and appease is more annoying.”

“Ahaha, it was a joke. “Okay then!!”

The sight of the magician disappearing in front of Lennok like lightning, as if he thought he had slowly surpassed his limit.

Rumbling!!

I can feel the presence of other superhumans watching this place through the slowly collapsing ceiling of the facility.

Black Visor stands up and collects the scattered magic power, and members of the special agency remain in their positions even after being swept away by the demonic giant.

Although it no longer displays hostility, it still has a strange attitude that seems to be trying to tie Lennok to this space.

Lennok, who was staring at the crew, shook his head as if he was dumbfounded.

“I’m done talking with your master. Is there still anything left for me to do?”

[...The transaction between you and the Central Council must be kept confidential. We will not receive any orders regarding this matter.]

Jade Visor answered in a low tone.

[If there is no notice from the higher-ups, we should give priority to carrying out our existing duties.]

“This is tiring work. Are all public officials like that?”

Lennok looked at the silent black visor and tapped his staff, raising his magic power.

“good. “Now that I think about it, there’s still something left worth asking you guys to do.”

Wow!!

A ferocious demonic giant with thick black chains hanging from both arms approaches the Aegis members with his arms crossed.

The moment when the giant, who had been waiting calmly for the work to be completed, despite his ferocious appearance, spread his arms wide.

Scream!!

The black chain began to move like a living snake, coiling around Lennok’s hand.

“Hell’s deal. A contract to be undefeated.”

Lennok grinned, grabbing the chain with his other hand that was not holding his cane.

“Shall we check what the undefeatable power defined in black magic is?”
