The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 904:

Eyes that See

Destiny (40) The outskirts of the city, outside the metropolitan area.

A distance beyond the borderline defined as an undeveloped area and closer to a satellite city.

Lennok was building a bonfire under an old ship tilted at an angle on the sandy desert.

Crackle crackle!

A small ember quickly catches fire on a dried tree branch and burns.

Lennok stepped back from the bonfire, his face turning red, and sat down on the sand dune.

No one can be seen around except the two people.

This is because as soon as they came out of the city, Lapis bit the other watchers and made room for them.

“I didn’t know you’d ask me to light a fire.”

said Lennok, shoving wood into the fire.

“I’m not used to camping. “If Evelyn had been there, she would have done it much more skillfully.”

“are you okay.”

Lapis answered.

“It will only take a moment to see your face and talk to you.”

“...Right.”

Stifling silence.

An awkward feeling of discomfort that I had never felt before with Lapis.

However, Lennok was not surprised that his relationship with Lapis had turned out this way.

From the moment I sent Lapis across the border of the world, I had thought that things might end up like this.

However, if there is something that bothers me, it is Lapis’s appearance itself, which has changed.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“yes.”

Lapis nodded with an expressionless face.

“A part of my grandmother’s personality remains with me.”

“....”

“If my supernormal abilities are stabilized and established, I will be able to choose a side.”

“It’s a choice...”

Lennok answered and glanced at Lapis’ feet.

Lapis’ shadow fluttering beyond the flames was repeatedly growing and shrinking, as if going back and forth between an adult and a child.

“If the overload of thoughts has affected the growth of the body, there will be considerable fatigue for a while.”

“....”

“Whether it returns to its original state or remains fixed, an adjustment period will be needed. “Try to rest if possible.”

“I’m a little tired, but the physical pain isn’t that bad.”

Lapis shook her head.

“Rather, there is a strong sense of heterogeneity between magic power and magic. “I think it’s a question of hierarchy rather than intention.”

Lapis calmly talks about her changes as if she were talking about someone else’s business.

Even cool reactions that barely reveal any changes in emotions or facial expressions.

From the moment we were reunited, I felt an unusual sense of calm, as if I had left something important behind.

“It must have been after Madrea Falseer became an ascendant that he acquired all the abilities of a lighthouse keeper.”

Lennok said, ignoring the discomfort.

“It is inevitable that there will be a backlash when you retrieve your supernormal ability, which has not yet been completed.”

“....”

“It is possible that you yourself have become something that is far removed from the existing hierarchy. “For more details, we need to examine the biorhythm and magic power reduction cycle, but...”

Lennok shrugged his shoulders.

“From there, Gap-seon and Grisha will know better than me.”

“Evan.”

Lapis suddenly called his name.

“What is Evan’s true wish?”

Lapis asked, her face still showing no emotion.

“Why have you been helping me ever since we first met?”

“...Lapis.”

“sorry.”

Lapis calmly apologized.

“It’s too late. “This is a question I should have asked a long time ago.”

“....”

“In the past, I hesitated because I was afraid to check. “I thought this might all be just light entertainment for you.”

A calm and low-key confession, as if expressing someone else’s feelings.

Lapis said, looking at the burning bonfire.

“The Evan I know is like fire. “Because they only burn passionately about the things they are interested in and don’t even care about anything else.”

“....”

“Because your temperament and talent are close to the ideal point I was hoping for. “I never once doubted that fact.”

Lapis stared into Lennok’s eyes.

“So... we might have been able to know that Evan was not defeated in this fight.”

“....”

“What ending does Evan hope for?”

Ask the same question again.

“It’s late, but can I get an answer now?”

“...well.”

Lennok smiled bitterly.

“I’m not sure where to start explaining.”

“....”

“I am who I am. “In the past, I was afraid of revealing the truth, so I tried to hide it and hide it until the end.”

Lennok muttered while looking at the night sky.

“....”

“I’ll tell the other watchers. Evan Martinez will put down his job as a watcher for the time being...”

As Lapis’ hand fell helplessly, her voice died down like a bonfire.

“I will be placed on probation to treat the aftereffects of the fight.”

* * *

A thousand decisive battles took place between Lightning and the Battlefield on the outskirts of the Hexagonal Fortress.

Four days after the disaster that everyone with eyes and ears watched throughout the city.

The megacity was still struggling to deal with the aftermath of this incident.

[Ahead of the schedule for redevelopment of urban areas near undeveloped areas, there is a heated debate within the National Assembly.] [The

armed conflict between high-ranking superhumans has now damaged tens of kilometers of the area to the point where recovery is impossible-] [The

outskirts, including District 49, where the Magic Tower is located. [Is it reasonable to proceed with redevelopment of the area?]

The media continues to report and discuss intensely on the same topic every day.

Experts who add opinions and explanations to reactions and news that change in real time.

[The pro-party side points out that the number of visits by magicians to magic towers across the continent has increased more than 20-fold since the incident occurred and is demanding active investment.] [The opposing side points out that even taking into account the financial gain, in the end, the lightning party responsible for the incident is directly responsible

. They are questioning whether it is something they should lose....]

“....”

No matter what channel I turn on or what news or news section I look at, this is the only story I hear.

Even the gossip about Professor Evan Bylan has not been mentioned at all for the past few days.

This probably means that the decisive battle that took place on the outskirts of the Balkans became a huge topic of discussion among citizens.

Since the Central Council took power and stabilized the city, no fight of this magnitude has been officially observed inside the city.

It was natural for opinions to be divided at the point when the city government officially acknowledged the situation and took action to resolve it.

[To understand the conflict between fastness and a thousand times, we first need to look back at the situation at the time.] [

The conflict reached its peak when fastness kidnapped the lighthouse keeper Lapis Falseer, who had secretly entered the country, right?]

Through a specially organized program. An unknown professor and a host explaining things to viewers across a desk.

[you’re right. The logic of those in favor is also based on this, because it is realistically impossible to hold a magician who is that crazy in the first place responsible.] [Right now, the

priority would be to preserve and respect his area as much as possible.] [

Apart from responsibility . So, they want to take care of profit first. As the number of wizards visiting Balkan has increased, wouldn’t it be a shame to miss this opportunity?] [

Now that I see it, the professor is also secretly in favor of redevelopment?]

[Haha, in fact, some of my classmates from Top also took this opportunity to visit the city. [I heard they were trying to do it...]

A loud laugh can be heard from beyond the screen.

Lennok was leaning against the lab workbench, staring at the screen with an expressionless face.

“....”

It’s been a few days since everything ended, but there’s still a lot of work left to do to get the situation resolved.

Even the number of contacts accumulating on my cell phone right now has already easily exceeded hundreds.

However, Lennok put aside all other work and stayed in the lab, concentrating on a new work for a long time.

Stabilization of the maximum magical power that suddenly increased due to the magical power of the open sea.

The method of operating the Hwashin technique that I gained a new sense of through this incident.

Even the new external magic core production technology was created by applying Jindun’s barrier technique.

Research and modification of techniques that have been put off for a long time. Take a break while researching and analyzing newly acquired techniques to your heart’s content.

No, can we call this rest?

If it were the usual Lennok, he wouldn’t have said that he was taking a break from sitting around doing nothing and watching the situation in the Balkans.

After talking with Lapis, Lennok was worried.

To be precise, after I was advised to keep my distance from Cheong’s eyes for a while.

Lennok kept thinking about that moment.

“....”

Was he shocked? Maybe it was.

However, I already knew that Lapis made that decision out of consideration for Lennok.

However, I had inadvertently thought that the Lapis that Lennok knew would not make such a choice.

Even that decision was not the outcome Lennok had expected, so he was just mulling over that fact.

That Lapis Falseer was a much stronger person than Lennok thought.

I am realizing that it was Lapis who truly cared about my relationship with Lennok.

Lennok, who had been thinking about this for several days, shook his head again today without being able to come up with an answer.

“...I guess I should finish my work.”

Slam!!

Lightly lift the large, heavy shotgun placed on the workbench.

A powerful appearance with the entire thick double barrel gun barrel sparkling with bright blue magic light.

In his lab, Lennok was concentrating on remodeling firearms that had been used less frequently in recent years.

The reason people no longer use guns that they have used for a long time is partly because they move between different social classes, but fundamentally it is because there is a limit to the amount of horsepower allowed.

Unlike the spells that Lennok himself wielded, there was a limit to the output of the auxiliary magic that was contained in the firearm.

However, it was possible to find a new solution to that problem through the newly developed external horsepower core.

‘If you modify the external horsepower core into the barrel of a rechargeable shotgun, you can overcome the limit of power that was previously lacking.’

Lennok was lost in thought as he lifted the double barrel, which was elongated in a rectangular shape.

‘However, it is difficult to properly test balance or durability if you blindly increase the output. It would be good if there is someone who can help...’ The

shotgun’s customization itself must be tailored to Lennok’s body, but data will serve as a standard for that adjustment. is needed.

In order to extract such standard data, a demonstration by someone with a strong physical ability would be most effective.

He has excellent motor skills and magical manipulation abilities and is skilled in using modern equipment, including firearms.

Anyone who would willingly cooperate with Lennok’s research and keep his secrets –

ding dong.

The doorbell rang.

“Howdy.”

Evelyn, who had brought all kinds of vegetables, was standing in front of the mansion’s door with a grin on her face.

“I heard you got dumped by Lapis?”

“....”

“Are we equally unemployed now?”

Misleading the essence is brief, but it takes a long time to explain it.

Even though it was so hot, I had no choice but to open the door.
