Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 157
by Jessie@AFNCC
“Due to the unique terrain of the Dominion and the location of the symbolic observatory called the ‘Lighthouse,’ it is a place where a magically diverse environment was originally created.”
Zordon said looking at the screen.
“The optimal environment for various medicinal herbs to grow. And it is a place with the best location conditions to store the medicinal herbs grown that way. “It wasn’t surprising.”
“Is it okay to think that the hand of Pandemonium extends to the Dominion?”
“It’s not that simple to think about.”
Jenny answered.
“The members of Pandemonium are famous for not having much interest in each other. Moreover the Juice Master is a newbie who only recently joined the monster organization… This warehouse is probably a hidden secret place created by the drug lord using only his own foundation.”
“I’m curious about the means by which you obtained the information. “How did they find the location of the safe when even the drug lord’s whereabouts were not clearly revealed?”
“It’s easier once you find out that he started making enemies in the Republic.”
Jenny smiled triumphantly at Lennok’s words.
“No matter how secretly he moves if he wants to maintain a business like that he has no choice but to leave traces everywhere.”
Lennok laughed as he saw her making a coin shape by joining her thumb and index finger.
“You bribed a drug lord’s subordinate.”
“To be precise the corrupt officials of the Republic. I chose people who were not yet too afraid of drug lords but on the other hand it was easy to get their hands on the information he had. Moreover the Paragini Republic is one of the most underdeveloped countries on the continent. “Because I coaxed him with money he fell for me very easily.”
Jenny said.
“It’s not like I’m asking you to steal information it’s just that I’m asking you to check the location of the safe and tell this side… Also this side has bypassed the deep web dozens of times so there’s no way they can tell you that the location of the safe has been leaked. “It took a little while to finish but security will be perfect.”
Was it because of this operation that they said there would be a little delay?
Even Lennok couldn’t help but be impressed by her way of doing things.
“That’s amazing.”
Finding the drug lord’s whereabouts at a time when there were no clues is remarkable and the know-how of tracing back his surroundings bribing the officials and exquisitely extracting only the location of the safe is impressive.
Even all of this would have had to be conducted indirectly from beyond the monitor bypassing the deep web so the level of difficulty would have been immeasurable.
Juice Master’s notoriety. Jenny’s ability to take risks and achieve successful results even though she was aware of her cruel nature was truly outstanding.
Experience accumulated through a long career as a broker and innate judgment and intuition. And this may have been the result of his bold character sparing no funds and adventures at the moment of need.
“I owe you.”
Lennok spoke frankly about his feelings.
I wasn’t foolish enough to not know that if I didn’t make this deal clearly problems would arise someday.

“There’s no need to say that.”
Jenny answered with a grin.
“Because you will have to take more fees later. “Please know in advance.”
Lennok burst into laughter at those words that did not sound like a joke.
“As soon as we achieved results we called you in and briefed you. “We need a day to organize the information we have obtained and secure a route to the Dominion so organize what you are doing until then.”
Jenny said as she closed her laptop.
“We have only taken superficial information that the safe is in the Philenom Dominion but in the end you will have to do it yourself on the spot to find out the specific location.”
“It’s like a business trip where you don’t know when you’ll return.”
Lennok who took his coat stood up and nodded.
“That’s enough. “I’m waiting for a call.”
Jordon caught Lennok who was about to leave the bar leaving Jenny who looked tired behind.
“Can I talk to you for a moment?”
“Of course.”
The two people sat side by side across the empty bar holding a candle in their mouths.
Zordon holding the double scarlet handed to him by Lennok and lighting it coughed slightly and smiled awkwardly.
“I’m sorry. “It’s been a while since I quit smoking.”
“it’s okay.”
Jordan’s behavior is very different from usual.
That’s probably because he’s quite worried about this incident.
And Lennok had a rough guess that the reaction was also related to his situation.
Before long Jordan who had skillfully let go of the smoke spoke.
“That’s what I said but it won’t end in one day.”
“……..”
“Except for the time I was handling other work I was using the deep web and sending messages to the Republic all day long so my fatigue must be enormous.”
“I know.”
Lennok answered.
The moment Jenny discovered that Malabeth was in the Philenom Dominion she had done everything she could.
From now on it is Lennok’s responsibility.
Lennok had no intention of subjecting her to any more hardships than this as it was something he had had to do from the beginning.
In any case it would take some time to fully assemble and complete the adjustment of the Archangel’s Compassion obtained from the battle with the exploration team.
All that was needed was for Jenny to hand over the data while analyzing some of the artifact’s abilities and adding them to its power.
Zordon laughed weakly after hearing Lennok’s answer.
“Yeah… you’ve always been so great about it. “Being able to tell the truth by just saying a few words and being able to tell the truth from them is definitely a valuable quality.”
“It’s not that grand….”
“So it’s understandable that Jenny has expectations and is investing in you.”
“……”
“The more it becomes known that you have powers beyond just being a freelancer the more people will associate your unusual talent with the name of Kaise. “Working with Kaise’s blood relatives is bound to have that meaning in the end.”

Jordon put his hand on Lennok’s shoulder.
The shield didn’t bounce off his hand.
“So let me make a decision after I return from the Dominion.”
“What decision do you mean?”
“Jenny is planning a completely new business with you at the head. There is a high probability that it will greatly change the landscape of this street. “Those who remember Kaise’s name will resent the child’s decision rather than welcome it.”
It’s business. Lennok’s eyes sank coldly after hearing the unheard words.
Everything changes little by little and this life doesn’t always go as planned.
In the end someone’s decision was needed to become something more than a simple freelancer in this shady street.
Jordon was essentially suggesting a turning point to Lennok.
