The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 949: Geumje
(4)
Dalkak.
Steaming coffee was placed on a spacious wooden table.
The sound of footsteps on the soft carpet gradually became quieter and then stopped.
A late morning when energy returns after a long night. I could faintly hear people talking outside on the street.
Area 49. The magic tower of fastness. A private office on the top floor, with languid sunlight pouring in through the slightly open window frames.
Lennok was busy going between offices, taking various necessary steps.
All entrances and vents around the hallways and near the office have been secured with magic for a long time.
There is a possibility that things could become troublesome once Anatame’s defection at the meeting becomes known throughout the Balkans.
I had to hurry up a bit to comfortably complete the deal I had discussed with Oliveira.
Lennok, who had been rummaging through a safe that had been left unattended for a long time in the desk drawers, couldn’t stand the silence and glanced away.
“If you need anything else-”
“That’s it.”
Jenny said with her arms crossed.
“It will be over soon anyway.”
“....”
Jenny and Feisha sitting across from each other at the table.
Jenny sips coffee with an expressionless face and Feisha bows her head with both arms tied in chains.
Although it was Lennok’s intention, when the board was actually laid out, it looked quite foreign.
Deadrise’s general, Feisha Grisburn.
A superhuman who fought alongside Kaise during the civil war, and now a high-ranking Changsha who works in Ethan’s legion.
and Zenithia Bajur, Kaise Bajur’s granddaughter and Ethan Bajur’s only blood relative.
Now that he has Feisha’s body in his hands, Lennok had the two meet before meeting Oliveira.
‘There will never again be a moment when we can guarantee your safety as much as now.’
Now that Feisha, whose hierarchy has been broken, has used up all her energy in the battle with Anathema.
Even if she reveals her murderous intentions against Jenny, her safety can be absolutely guaranteed.
Deadrise, a PMC that betrayed Kaise and became independent.
They ruled as part of the triumvirate in the shadows of the Balkans until they advanced to the central front and increased their power.
Regardless of the loyalty the members of the Legion show to their enemy, why have they left Jenny, Bajur’s blood relative, alone until now?
And now we can find out what they think of Jenny’s existence.
“....”
But what Lennok valued more than anything was Jenny’s reaction, not Feisha’s.
Jenny’s attitude of pretending not to know even though she was aware of her birth and guessed the inside story.
Although he tried his best to pretend not to care, Lennok guessed that it was a reaction that Jenny could show because she knew the truth.
Because dealing with Deadrise officials was too dangerous, I had been busy killing them all instead of taking them to Jenny.
Now that all of Feisha’s magical power has been depleted, the entire situation can be handled by Lennok within the realm of the Magic Tower.
“....”
However, even though Jenny and Feisha were aware of each other’s presence, they seemed to have no intention of speaking first.
Jenny closes her eyes as if thinking about the situation right now, and Feisha stares blankly at Jenny’s face.
Ironically, to Lennok, Feisha’s reaction seemed as if she was watching Jenny.
widely. Jenny, who put down her coffee cup, broke the silence and spoke.
“It’s evil.”
Jenny, with her arms crossed, nodded in the direction where Lennok stood with a sullen expression.
“You created this situation first and are pretending that you didn’t intend it.”
“....”
“If you’re going to pretend it’s not the case, why not just pretend or look at it openly without even leaving the office?”
Jenny’s attitude of speaking without hesitation as if she had seen Feisha for a long time.
But Feisha did not answer those words easily.
“You must have been treated like that by your class too.”
Jenny said as if she understood Feisha.
“Because I’m the type of person who enjoys creating situations the way I want them to. “If I thought about what you did, I would have been treated even worse.”
“It’s half.”
At that moment, Feisha opened her mouth.
He stares at Jenny with a transparent gaze that shows no emotion, to the point of being burdensome.
“It looks like you know a lot about fastness.”
“....”
Unlike the first time he called Jenny Bajur-sama, the tone was more casual than expected.
“....”
“Whenever you have time, you’ve been thinking about what medicine to send. Just like my father, he said that it is a bloodline that cannot be healthy and must be prevented-”
“Don’t lie!”
Jenny couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted.
Clink!
When I put the coffee cup down hard, the handle broke and hot coffee spilled out.
Could it be that the burning pain on the back of my hand actually cooled my emotions?
Jenny, who was staring at it, spoke quietly.
“I couldn’t even erect my mother’s tombstone because of the assassins coming.”
“....”
“If it weren’t for Zordon, I would have been next to my mother. “I also know that the reason I was able to work as a broker was because of the deals Jordan made.”
Jenny closed her eyes and muttered.
“I thought it wouldn’t be strange if I died at any time. I thought that every moment had nothing to do with my ability or will. But the reason I lived despite that was because I thought I needed to know.”
Jenny asked, slowly opening her eyes in deafening silence.
“What is Deadrise’s real purpose?”
“....”
Even as he faces a past that is out of his control and is swayed by his emotions, he does not lose his judgment.
Even though he knew that this moment facing Feisha was prepared only for him.
That’s why I was aware that there was something I needed to hear from her.
“Ethan Bajur... where is he now?”
Feisha, who had been looking pitifully at Jenny’s hesitation to even call her name, glanced away.
She made eye contact for a moment with Lennok, who was watching the two from afar, and then burst into laughter.
As if he finally understood what he had to do at this moment.
And even though he knew that, it seemed like he had the intention of following Lennok’s intentions.
“Kaise changed a little every time a project failed.”
Feisha answered quietly.
“Everyone knew it was different from the beginning. But even so, we were together until the end...”
Her transparent gaze captured Jenny’s face.
“Because everyone understood what the essence of the project was.”
“....”
“Ethan passed away before the project was completed, but what he was trying to achieve through his death was-”
Tdduk!!
The sound of a tightly connected string being snapped.
Immediately afterwards, black blood flowed from Feisha’s nose.
Jenny’s complexion changed as she realized that it was a noise echoing from Feisha’s head.
“Wait a minute you...!!”
It was not possible to escape the influence of the ban just by briefly mentioning the project.
Cracking crackling...!!!
As black electric current leaked through Feisha’s eyes and nose, her complexion turned as pale as a corpse and her body trembled.
“Chuck... clack!!”
A violent seizure that had never been revealed even during a life-and-death struggle with Anathema.
But even in the meantime, Feisha’s lips were trembling and she had difficulty squeezing out her voice.
He stutters trying to finish what he started, as if he knew it would end up like this from the beginning.
“Bah bah...”
“Stop. “Do you want to die?!!”
First warning. No second chances.
The price of breaking the prohibition is a reaction that even ascendants cannot avoid.
It will break the continuity of metabolism and thought and make it impossible for any life function to ever be performed again.
If you continue like this, you will die.
But Feisha did not stop even as she saw Jenny jump up from her seat.
He made a wistful expression as he looked back at old memories as Jenny quickly approached him.
“It was to cut off from his own hands the uncanny talent that comes down through Bajur’s blood.”
I closed my eyes and muttered like a whisper.
“Because the Black Consumer Project was such a miracle.”
Quick!!
No time was given to react.
Jenny shouted before Lennok stepped forward.
Feisha fell backwards, blood spraying out.
