Drug-Eating Genius Mage
Chapter 204

Clue (1)

[Ask for time?]

“Yes.”

[Hahaha!!]

Virgil silently lowered his head at the sound of laughter coming from across the wide screen.

[It’s been quite a while since I’ve heard that from you. It reminds me of the old days.]

“The blade prepared by Zenith looks sharper than I thought. If you move hastily, you may suffer a big loss from this side.”

[That makes sense.]

Awesome.

I heard the sound of the wine in the glass shaking.

[Unless the other person was a child who was earning a living by working as a broker not long ago.]

“… … .”

[I understand that the last child Kaise left behind is a little under 30. Not even half the time we spent on this floor. Isn’t it?]

Virgil slowly lifted his head and looked at the screen.

On the other side of the screen, a splendid swimming pool was reflected under the wide night sky.

Dozens of young men and women frolicking at the bottom of the pool with loud music.

And a woman looks down at them with a glass at the top of the pool.

[Now that I’m older, I really like seeing young children running around like this.]

The head of the cartel put down the hand holding the glass.

[Looking at the things that can’t live even for a hundred years at most, burning with passion as if the world is everything now, I feel like what I want doesn’t mean anything.] “You’ve changed a lot.

”

[Vergil. Do you remember how many years we worked together?]

“… … I haven’t had a leak in over 30 years.”

Although the head of the cartel and Virgil maintain a youthful appearance, their age has long since exceeded their appearance.

Raising one’s level and approaching transcendence accompanies a long period of time and penance.

If you don’t have an overwhelming talent that transcends time, there will eventually come a moment when you have to rely on your own development potential on the gradual increase in horse power.

[More than 50 years have passed since the moment when the old men of the city council became unreasonably greedy. Nothing has happened since we agreed to share the shadow of this city.]

The woman’s voice was mixed with a faint laugh.

[I thought that even the few remaining lingering feelings were fading… … Of course, now everything is starting to change. It’s ironic.]

“… … .”

[If only now we were given a reason to move… … . Virgil. What do you want to do?]

“Can’t you just do whatever you want?”

Virgil replied with a nonchalant expression.

“As always, I’m just following. The other bosses of the cartel will think so too.”

[Follow me… … . That’s right.]

The woman who had been silently shaking her glass nodded.

[You are right. It’s too late, but I’ll have to check what kind of legacy Kaise was planning to leave to his granddaughter.]

The woman’s voice, which had been shaking aimlessly, became infinitely colder.

[The beginning and end of the Black Consumer Project. What is the secret that stopped the old people who were greedy for the secret art of immortality? Did Kaise know the answer?]

It’s too big a secret to leave to the granddaughter who wasn’t born yet.

Wasn’t Zenith surviving until now because he ruled out that possibility?

But Virgil, instead of refuting that comment, quietly bowed his head.

“Everything will flow according to your will.”

[Don’t make me wait too long. If it’s not you, I’ll send another boss. I’m very curious about how Kaise’s granddaughter grew up… … .]

“What is an area?”

“… … .”

Aris, who was staring blankly out the window, put down the book Lennok was holding.

Balkan City Central Library 8th floor.

It is a strange space where the sun shines warmly through the huge windows and is full of magic books and papers, but wizards do not set foot well.

Those who are unfamiliar with magic avoid this place, and if they know about magic to some extent, they tend to go to places with more professional theories and books.

Needless to say, since the Rabatenon University library was opened to the public.

Unless you’re a cool newbie who doesn’t know anything about this world or a geek who goes through all the existing papers just in case you don’t know, there’s no reason to visit this library.

It’s been quite a while since the two of them met again here.

After Lennok officially took office as assistant professor, there was virtually no reason to continue meeting in the library.

Discussing each other’s stance on theories was enough to do in the laboratory, and it was also a factor that there was no need to visit the library as Lenok was busy with work as a class.

That is, until Lennok’s thesis caused more than expected waves.

“It won’t help much if you ask me about that.”

“why?”

“Why… … . In fact, isn’t the field of magnetism only allowed for geniuses who have reached the 6th and 7th levels?”

Developing the magnetic field is purely dependent on talent and inclination, but the story is different if you dig deeply into that ability, regardless of whether or not it is simply developed.

It is not only directly related to the image fundamentally inherent in the magician’s inner world.

Because most of the most intimate and secret memories are often embodied.

Therefore, among the papers published in the current conference, there were not many cases that dealt with the magnetic field in depth.

In the end, it was no different than having to disclose the magician’s most secret image for full-scale research on the magnetic field.

Whether it is a magician who writes a thesis or a magician who becomes a subject of research, no one wants his territory to be revealed.

It’s understandable that Aris, who never neglects research and training, can hardly replace her way.

From her point of view, who ran faster than anyone else on the existing path, she was experiencing growing pains at this point in time when she had to build her own image.

Of course, after all, Lennok wasn’t in a very different situation, so he pretended to be unconcerned.

“It is a completely unknown field for a mage like me who already handles elemental magic. I don’t think hearing my opinion will help much… … .”

“no.”

Aris shook her head at Lennok’s words with a single stroke.

“I was convinced when I saw Lennok’s thesis. Lennok’s theoretical perspective is completely different from that of conventional wizards.”

“… … yes?”

“The paper written by Lennok. I don’t know what you think, but it’s the same as explaining the change in the magical properties that level 6 wizards reach from a completely different perspective. Compatibility between electric power and electromagnetic waves. In other words, it means a change in the nature of magic from a physical point of view.”

“… … .”

“That’s why it’s constantly a hot topic at conferences now, and Lennok isn’t under much suspicion. In fact, this is-”

“Because everyone thinks it is a thesis that can never be written without directly reaching level 6… … you mean?”

Aris nodded quietly.

Her eyes, deep blue like the sea, were shining brightly.

“Lenok. Your theoretical talents look beyond that of a mere wizard. Perhaps the reason why he learned spirit magic is because of his unique way of thinking, which is completely different from other wizards.”

“… … .”

“With all due respect, I need that unique way of thinking. I know Lennok is the type to be cautious about expressing opinions, but even wild guesses will help a lot.”

“You want a statement that can break the mold of thinking. It can certainly help you change your point of view.”

Lennok smiled bitterly.

It’s because now that I’ve come to think about it, I thought that I should have selected a topic by considering more things when writing a thesis.

At that time, I was just planning to write a thesis on a theme suitable for a spiritist and get recognition for my achievements.

It could be said that it was luck, but it was not something that Lennok himself planned and intended.

‘But as a result, is it a benefit to be able to talk with Aris about the magnetic realm?’

Just as Aris is having trouble with imagery in the magnetic realm, Lennok has a similar problem.

However, what Lennok thinks is not the difficulty of capturing images per se… …

“It’s good to put images in the magnetic field, but how about thinking about what happens after that?”

“What does that mean?”

“Didn’t you say that the ability of that realm is determined by what kind of image is imprinted on it?”

said Lennok.

“Then it wouldn’t hurt to start backwards from what abilities you want. Even if you succeed in image imprinting and reach the 7th level, it will be a problem if the ability of the realm is not very helpful.”

“… … .”

Aris blinked her eyes without saying a word.

It would be difficult for her to think.

Rather than worrying about how to project images into the realm, worrying about whether the ability of the realm would not help after reaching level 7.

In fact, in the eyes of others, it would be nothing more than an arrogant statement worrying about a success that has not already happened.

But that was exactly what Lennok was worried about about the magnetic realm.

Lennok had already seen Grisha’s magnetic domain ‘Nammando Coast Guard’ twice in the autonomous territory and confirmed how it works.

The scenery she captures in the realm of the shaman is her hometown, which has now disappeared. The scene of the jungle that has been burned away.

It was a landscape of memories and images that formed the basis of the shaman named Grishara.

Lennok had a hunch that it was not that difficult for him to see it and capture the imagery itself.

The ability to perfectly control one’s thoughts and mind.

It is not difficult for him to forcibly prioritize his inner mind, having brought all the talents necessary for a wizard to the limit.

So, what Lennok is fundamentally worried about.

It was a matter of what kind of ability would be included in the realm of magnetism when an image was determined and projected into the realm of magnetism.

“It is best to build an environment that is optimized for the magic you handle. If not, it would be desirable to at least have abilities or side effects that are helpful in combat. Or it can be helpful to the realm or research direction you are pursuing… … . If even that doesn’t work, in a way that makes up for the shortcomings.”

“that. okay.”

“There are many things you can think of, but there are many possibilities that will not go your way. In the end, no one can guarantee that the technique and imagery you deal with will be fundamentally the same. Aris handles various elemental magic, but you can’t be sure that your personality is focused on a specific personality like lightning or ice.”

Aris looked up with a dazed expression as Lennok blankly recited the problem he had been thinking about.

Lennok didn’t even notice that gaze and rested his chin in thought.

“How certain memories or landscapes determine the ability of an area cannot be ascertained in a single instance. In the end, it would be most desirable to increase the number of samples by checking a few more areas of other magicians, but if you can’t get much help in that area, I’d rather… … .”

“… … Lennok?”

“… … .”

Yes.

After all, it was a problem that Grisha’s Nammando Coast Guard alone could not be sure of, so Lennok was agonizing like this.

It was to the point where it was thought that it would be better to bump into another mage and directly check the opponent’s realm and its landscape ability.

That’s why Lennok wasn’t too reluctant about this conflict with the cartel.

Any organization of that size would undoubtedly have powerful sorcerers.

If you kill them one by one in the direction in which Jenny’s business grows, there is no doubt that one day-

“Lenok!!”

Percussion!

“… … !!!”

Hearing the strong tap on his shoulder, Lennok raised his head.

Aris, who was sitting on the other side of the desk, came up to him and bowed her head before she knew it.

“are you okay?”
