Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 142



Preparation (2)

A similar feeling as when Rayan who had lost his business in District 44 and came to visit Lenok followed him.

However it is a much more secret and sharp anticipation than that.

This is proof that there is someone who is determined to follow Lennok.

No strictly speaking this would mean that there is someone following the class.

And if there were forces trying to dig up Lennok’s footsteps at a time like this there weren’t many candidates.

Lennok’s mind began to spin rapidly and he began to select potential candidates.

‘Remnants of Siger Bang or executives of Falcion. A member of the drug trafficking organization that we encountered in the last nomination request… They are all plausible but the most likely one is the exploration team.’

By now it would not be strange for Irina to take action after hearing the news that members of the exploration team including Brooke had died.

It was not at all strange that she set aside the cause of the incident and took revenge due to the deaths of her colleagues who were targeting Yakseon’s amulet.

Rather sending someone in this way felt much more natural to Lennok.

I lightly raised my magic power and summoned Dabi.

“Please check the surrounding CCTV. “Is there anyone watching this area?”

[Electronic equipment in a 100m radius is being blocked in real time. It is not a physical disconnection but recovery will be possible within 5 minutes.]

“It’s not surveillance it’s blocking? hmm…..”

I couldn’t believe it but are you planning on killing Lennok right here?

At least it seemed clear that the other person was pursuing him with a certain degree of determination.

[You have great confidence.]

“Let’s see if he has that much skill.”

Lennok folded his arms turned his back and waited for his opponent to approach.

The five fingers of Enakpil the artifact contained in the arms are fully prepared to be used at any time.

For Lennok who has realized how to develop the magnetic field there are not many factors that can hinder the use of magic.

The confidence that he could run away at any time turned into curiosity about the other person and was waiting for him.

The opponent who realized that Lennok’s change of attitude had caught his tail immediately changed his stance.

Ssssssss…!!

An eerie noise as if the wind was creeping low across the floor.

The sharp deadly condensation becomes a series of streams and penetrates every corner of the narrow street.

When I came to my senses it had already turned into a black shadow and was looking down at Lennok.

A man crouching on a streetlamp and staring at Lennok with calm eyes.

Black coat and shaggy hair. A warrior’s outfit that looks distant from the world.

However the magical power flowing through its body is infinitely pure and stable.

A warrior who has trained himself severely. He is also a skilled person with a considerable level of infiltration skills.

“I made a mistake.”

The young man who had been making eye contact with Lennok for a while slowly opened his mouth.

“You really didn’t seem to notice anything until you got here but you were waiting for me here from the beginning.”

“……..”

“Perhaps this street is not your real address and is just an intermediate place that can be abandoned at any time. Now that things are like this I have no choice but to interrogate you directly and find out information.”

“It has followed me all this way and has a long snout.”

“…..what?”

“If you have any questions why don’t you ask directly?”

Lennok responded by taking out a long stick from his pocket and putting it in his mouth.

It is a solidified medicinal extract that is also used as a portable health food.

It is famous for its extremely bitter taste but it is not very disgusting.

Lennok was also a fan of this product as it was an impressive product with just the right level of nauseating taste.

Lennok had already become accustomed to the taste of this bitter medicine.

The young man said with a wry smile at Lennok’s words.

“Hey I hope I’m not mistaken. “Do you think we would have done something like this without doing any research on you?”

“…….”

“I have just completed an investigation into how you move when there are no requests. And we also know what type of magic you use.”

“That’s very interesting.”

The young man ignoring Lennok’s annoyed response snapped his fingers and at the same time a small bead rose from his hand and exploded instantly scattering a thick layer of powder throughout the area.

“If you block lightning magic the range of your response ability will be greatly reduced…!! “Take out all the cards you have!!”

As the young man said that he became a ray of shadow and quickly ran towards Lennok.

Wedge!!

The speed at which it shoots over the exterior of the shaded building like a wave is unusual.

Judging by the flow of magical energy moving within its body it did not seem to be magic or a magic trick but it seemed to be a type of martial art that deals with shadows.

Lennok who was about to respond immediately guessed the identity of the powder scattered around him and shook his head.

“It seems like I picked up a strange theory somewhere. Are you aiming for a dust explosion?”

By sprinkling flammable particles into the air is he hoping that Lennok will be swept away by the firepower he has created?

No the other person is not an idiot.

You wouldn’t even think that Lennok a brilliant wizard would be caught in an explosion of his own making and would be shocked.

So what is the reason for that action now?

Lennok immediately found the answer.

Join our discord and ping me to update more chapters. Discord: https://discord.gg/93rmBjgP6B

‘It looks like a deserted alley but it’s actually quite close to a downtown area… If an explosion occurs here it will definitely cause damage to civilians.’

For Lennok there is no needless sense of debt to protect good citizens.

However I wanted to avoid touching civilians in this way attracting attention and interfering with my freelance life.

The opponent noticed the subtle difference in attitude and attacked first to overcome the slight hesitation.

‘Even if you consciously limit magic that emits strong firepower there are quite a few magics that can be used. But what if he expected this and sprinkled dust?’

Assuming the young man is a member of the exploration team what does he want to see in Lennok’s hands other than fire magic?

Considering that Lennok mainly used manipulation-type magic when killing Brook the answer was simple.

‘I want to check if I know how to use manipulation-type magic. Now these operations were a series of tests to verify whether a magician would emerge from my hands.’

But to put it the other way… doesn’t that mean that the investigation team has not yet confirmed that Lennok was the culprit who killed Brooke?

At the same time that the corners of Lennok’s mouth were torn apart the young man’s capital emerged from the shadows and instantly shot through the air.

Wood clatter!!

The capital which curved sharply in the air where it was impossible to take a step contained magical power and struck Lennok’s shield.

Kwaaaang!!

In an instant more than two layers of the shield shattered and fell sending a powerful shock wave through the narrow alley.

“Three layers to go…!!”

While muttering that the young man began to move his hands faster his movements accelerating.

Boom boom!!!

Five shadow blows struck in place pressing down heavily on the shield.

However rather than being disturbed by the constantly shaking shield Lennok was more interested in the words he muttered.

“Do you even know that the shield I was using was made of five layers? “I did my research properly.”

As Lennok said that he immediately raised his magic power.

“But that alone is not enough.”

Weeeeeee!!

The moment the young man threw up his hand the five-layer shield which had been completely restored swelled rapidly and threw the young man’s body back.

With a snap of his fingers two chains were launched and instantly wrapped around the young man’s legs and squeezed them.

However what was squeezed from the chained leg was not a bright red blood stain but a dark shadow.

This is achieved by changing the components of the body into parts of the shadow.

Even if you bind your body with gravity-type magic you won’t be able to capture even your shadow.

“profit…..!!”

The young man’s expression was already grimly distorted when he realized that the powder he had initially sprayed had no effect on Lennok’s combat ability.

The composure that I used to rush forward with confidence is gone my eyes are constantly looking for a hole to escape to and my fists have long since become loose.

It was only now that he realized that the distance between the two was farther than he thought.

It’s natural to be scared by the completely different battle structure than you first thought.

Moreover a skilled warrior would have been quite confident in his own eyesight.

It was not strange to not be able to respond proactively to such an unexpected situation.

The body of the young man who had been blatantly retreating disappeared into the shadows.

Lennok who was watching the futile escape amidst a pile of pure white powder falling like snow laughed.

“It’s late.”

Before I even realized that my fingertips were getting cold Lennok’s magic burst out.

Damn it!!

Five forearm-sized ice piles created by collecting moisture from all directions circle around Lennok.

A method of suppressing molecular movement and interfering with the action of dust by contracting the air rather than expanding it.

But the young man distanced himself from Lennok and laughed at the crude answer.

“You stupid bastard. “I think I’ll accept that…”

Burbubbubbuk!!

Five ice stakes pierced the young man’s stomach from behind as he quickly retreated.

Every single one of them was cut into his stomach with precision destroying his organs.

At the end of Lennok’s hand which he raised with an expressionless face was Dabi who had changed his appearance slightly out of concern for the attention of those around him.

‘Just as I thought.’

The transferability of an artifact I discovered by chance in college.

As soon as Lennok realized the ability he took Dabi with him to investigate the limitations and effectiveness of the transference ability and had achieved decent results.

If the location of the shock magic used by Roden could be changed then it would also be possible to freely manipulate the location of the magic used by Lennok.

The facts about the transference ability of Archangel’s compassion which were discovered through several experiments were as follows.

‘The amount of magical power that can be transferred at once is limited and the amount is not that large. The transferable distance is approximately 50m… Once used the cooldown is 30 minutes.’

Although the price of dealing with the ability to directly interfere with space comes with limitations it was enough for Lennok.

Or rather these limitations gave Lennok one thing of confidence.

Even if it weren’t for the Archangel’s compassion there would be an artifact somewhere that could transfer a person with an appropriate penalty.

And if the transfer ability that can transfer living things works in a completely different way from magic as just before.

Even the fact that Lennok would also be able to use that transference ability.

I lightly snapped my fingers while organizing my thoughts.

[Harmonics]

At that moment Lennok’s magic power from the five ice stakes resonated simultaneously creating a huge vibration.

Right in the stomach of the pierced young man.

“Aaaahhh!!!”

Even a well-trained warrior cannot endure the pain of having his internal organs turned into stew.

The crying young man fell down hugging his stomach trembling.

The results of the short battle were overwhelming and even futile.

It looks like they made various preparations to deal with Lennok but in the end they couldn’t even do anything properly.

The blood that poured out of Goku dripped down giving off a strong fishy smell.

If the young man was a proper warrior he wouldn’t die just from this.

There were still things I needed to ask him.

“If you leave it to Sebastian he will open your mouth on his own.”

Hiring a good torture technician is an easy task for a broker.

Weeeeeee….!!

Lennok who was trying to help him up by grabbing his drooping collar stopped and raised his head when he heard an alien resonance coming from behind him.

Shit!!

A ray of light shot from ripples rising in the air.

It was a sharp and fast polarity that could not be easily maintained but Lennok did not avoid the approaching light but instead just stared at it blankly.

A flash of light passed gently under Lennok’s arm and pierced straight through the frozen young man’s head shattering it completely.

Kwaaaang!!

Although he suddenly lost the subject of his interrogation right before his eyes Lennok was not disappointed.

Anyway the purpose of interrogating him was to find out that he was connected to the exploration team.

There was no need to go far when the answer was clearly visible in front of you.

[I’m sorry to greet you in this way.]

A voice so cold that you feel chills just by hearing it.

It was meaningless to gauge the hostility contained within.

It is clear that the sound is transmitted using waves that rise before our eyes but the principle is not easy to guess.

Considering the explanation Sebastian gave this is probably a type of ability with a different principle from the magic techniques possessed by top-level artifacts.

A unique ability that only high-level artifacts have. A cold-hearted person who can sacrifice even colleagues doing the same job without hesitation.

There was no need to say who appeared at this moment.

Irina Pesfield.

Lennok asked pretending not to notice.

“Who are you?”

[Are you asking me that now?]

“well. “If you keep saying things that don’t make sense what answer should I give you?”

After saying that Lennok took out a nutritional supplement from his arms and poured it into his mouth.

Irina who was watching the situation from afar appeared here for only one reason.

In the end Lennok did not reveal that he was a manipulative magician during the battle with the young man and the young man was unable to get any clues from him.

In the process of dealing with him I used the transfer ability built into the gem but the kind of ability that interferes with space was often not noticeable even when seen right next to me.

She may have just seen Lennok’s use of the teleportation ability but on the other hand she couldn’t help but be suspicious of him not using any manipulation-type abilities.

‘Let’s shake it a little more and see the reaction. ‘I need to find out how he responds to provocation.’

Lennok was lost in thought as he quietly chewed his nutritional supplement.

I have no intention of dragging this on. Because there was a lot of work to do.

That’s why I had to end my judgment of her right now and take action.

Depending on which side she has you will have to change your opponent’s strategy completely.

[I say this in a very rude way.]

Irina said in a frosty voice.

[If you return that item right now and ask for forgiveness I will spare your life. but……]

“but?”

[If one is being greedy for no reason the thief who covets the owner’s property should be punished appropriately.]

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Lennok laughed.

A fleeting conversation. The first means of communication Lenno chose for his cold words and actions was…

“Aren’t I looking at the wrong person?”

It was an extremely shameless flipper.
