Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 193

“The reason why Felix was sent is also obvious. This guy is in overall command of the mercenary group’s affairs. “We sent someone with whom we can do a clean transaction while strengthening our side.”

“…Anyway that’s the way it is.”

Lennok nodded as Felix cleared his throat.

In other words the conversation with Dyke has already ended and with Antares we are at a stage where we need to adjust our opinions in detail.

It is surprising that Jenny was able to recruit so many collaborators in such a short period of time and it is also surprising that the work has already made this much progress.

I can roughly guess what kind of thoughts Dyke had when he got involved in this matter.

Because Lennok’s skills shown in the process of dealing with the Cigar Bang gang and the profits he gained from monopolizing the weapons business were significant he decided to tap the calculator and sneak in on Lennok’s side.

In any case even if this action causes a bad relationship with the cartel the arms business will not be threatened and if done well the calculation may be that they can take a piece of the pie from the other side.

Considering the personality of Panoa Dyke’s planning director whom Lennok knows it is a decision that seems shrewd at first glance but is quite reasonable.

If you think about the fact that only Killian was sent it must have been an intention to make a fool of Killian on his own.

The idea may seem obvious but it’s not a bad idea.

Killian’s skills themselves are not at a level that can hinder him anywhere so he will be helpful in tasks that require his hands.

The problem was with Antares.

It’s surprising that a mercenary group with some of the most elite talent in the industry didn’t give a negative answer to this matter but I didn’t expect a mercenary the size of Felix to come there and say he wanted to make a deal.

Does this mean that Lennok and Jenny have a good chance of winning?

“I’d like to hear more details. “I guess that’s why you came here right?”

“I think there’s someone who can make room before then.”

Felix said that and looked at Killian with sharp eyes.

Even if it was Killian he couldn’t stop here so he clicked his tongue and stood up.

“Well if you’re busy with work there’s nothing you can do. I’ll be down below. “Wouldn’t it be okay to join the mercenaries who are busy running around outside right now?”

Killian quickly stood up and left the office leaving the three of them alone.

Only then did Felix open his mouth.

“I think it would be best to start with my position first. “I think the business you have started has great potential.”

“….”

Instead of answering Lennok turned his head towards Jenny.

Almost everything about the business from beginning to end took place while Lennok was in the Dominion.

I didn’t hear anything about her other than that she had started to dabble in logistics distribution.

“The idea of ​​taking over the shadow logistics distribution business by using businesses involved in inter-city trade as investors is very groundbreaking. This is especially true if it is directly led by Jenny who was Kaise’s blood relative. The scavengers are in charge of that job now but that’s just the scum they got because they were loyal dogs of the Three Heads…. If you get down to business properly you’ll get your share of the pie in no time.”

Felix said and rested his chin on his muscular arm.

“The problem is that many people here have the same thoughts as me. And the same goes for cartels. That’s why you started working on your business as soon as you started.”

“Are you saying that they are actively keeping a check on the material distribution business because they are confident of its success?”

“yes. That’s why I’m very concerned about Jenny’s suggestion. If we take one side here we will have to stick together until this situation is resolved. “I didn’t want to touch it as much as possible but…”

Felix said that and emptied the coffee cup on the table into his beak in one go.

As a man of considerable stature the caffeine entering his body seemed to have little effect on his liver.

“It seems our boss thinks differently.”

“….”

There is no need to hear who the boss Felix is ​​talking about is.

The director of the Antares Office the pinnacle of the mercenary industry in this vast metropolis.

Even though he is not involved in any outside activities there is no one who does not know his face and no one who is unsure of his abilities.

Mercenary leader Antares.

Dylan and Mila. The leader with outstanding mercenaries like Felix now began to turn his attention towards Lennok.

“Felix. “Let’s keep it brief and to the point.”

Jenny opened her mouth.

“I appreciate the fact that they are evaluating our business very positively but wouldn’t we be able to negotiate if you tell us what you want? Do you want to transfer your shares when this business is officially listed?”

“….”

“I think he had already made up his mind when he visited our office so it’s okay to hold off in moderation.”

Her eyes shone sharply.

“Isn’t Antares talking so loudly because he has something else he wants?”

“hmm.”

Felix stroked his beak with his large hand without saying a word.

“You still have great sense young lady. “It’s just as you said.”

‘Lady…’

Jenny who has spread her feet in various places and has a wide network of contacts doesn’t have many people who actually use honorifics.

Considering her tendencies Felix would probably be…

The conversation continues while Lennok is lost in thought.

“There are two main conditions. As Jenny said check to see how much of your business interests you are willing to give up. In this case detailed conditions will be adjusted after the cartel is checked.”

Antares doesn’t seem to think that Jenny and the cartel will go to the end when they face off.

Jenny’s expression didn’t change as she probably guessed it to some extent.

“second. Our leader wants to meet the class separately. “I wish you could give me some time.”

Are you saying that Felix took so long just to put forward these conditions?

As Lennok turned his head with a slightly puzzled feeling Felix added.

“I want a serious sparring based on mutual injury.”

“….”

“Felix. “Please tell me I’m crazy.”

Like Jenny’s sharp answer that request is too much for Lennok to grant at this point.

I don’t know how aggressive Antares is but with the conflict with the cartel threatening to escalate it would be a huge loss if Lennok were to get injured while sparring with Antares.

Lennok is a wizard for whom the word sparring does not fit.

No matter how much Lennok has built up his reputation by killing numerous powerful people in succession no one would think that he would be able to go one-on-one with a warrior the size of Antares.

But Lennok nodded to the request.

“good.”

“half?”

“As long as I can borrow Antares’ name by collaborating with the mercenary leader there there is nothing left to do. I accept the second condition. “It’s okay with me as long as I agree with Jenny on the first condition within a reasonable range.”

By the time the Crimgal Mercenaries and Dyke Corporation had already joined the situation the situation had changed significantly.

Rather than simply causing unilateral damage to the cartel this side can also form a force and engage in a power struggle.

This meant that the chances of Lennok and Jenny continuing their tight tug-of-war against the cartel without much trouble were greatly increased.

‘It got to a point where I couldn’t even remove the tail. The fact that they put these conditions on it probably means that they also have something they want to say to me.’

Although he has not yet obtained the image to reach level 7 the harvest Lennok has gained from the Dominion is by no means small.

Various medicinal herbs and all kinds of goods. Personal magical achievements and artifacts obtained through Akasha and Baizen in the process.

And crucially the presence of the prayer beads and Jeongto Shinhaengeon that Lapis received made Lennok much more cautious.

A top-class dharma tool that Madrea Falseer the Heavenly Seen used right before becoming an ascendant.

This artifact which restrains the opponent by suppressing and sealing a specific space is sufficient for Lennok to safely remove his body in any situation.

If we collect information about Antares and fight based on that Lennok will not suffer much loss in this matter.

Jenny’s lips twitched when she saw Lennok’s face but then she sighed and nodded along.

This was possible because I knew Lennok was a person who would not make such a judgment without any basis.

“Ha… good. Well then please send Dylan O’Casey our way right now. “If that bastard is still frequenting our bar the cartel will probably know what this means.”

“Dylan is currently away due to other matters… but there are many members here who want to participate in this project. “There will be no shortage of power.”

“…great. “It would be better to negotiate terms including that first.”

After that Lennok left the bar leaving Felix and Jenny who were still negotiating.

It seems that Felix’s positive view of this business was not a lie as he had indeed been quite specifically requesting a portion of the shares in this business.

Negotiations were running in endless parallel with Jenny saying that if it was going to turn out like that the entire Antares mercenary group should join this company.

In addition as Lennok had guessed Felix had once been one of Kaise’s subordinates. When he started talking about old times he stood up first thinking it would be better to leave the room.

As I went downstairs to the bar the mercenaries guarding the place greeted me.

I roughly nodded and accepted it and when I came out I saw people walking around secretly without being noticed.

In the meantime it seemed like Drey had already sorted out what the mercenaries needed to do and went to work.

It would be enough to ask later how the patrol method was decided.

Lennok thought only that and walked on.

Before I started work I had some personal work to do.

* * *

I left Area 49 and headed to Area 31 where the botanical garden is located.

A twilight evening. Perhaps because it was a weekday I passed through the botanical garden which was already deserted and headed toward the orchard inside.

As always the old man who was joking in the dark blue fog greeted Lennok.

“What else do you have to do this time?”

The old man looked up at him smiling suspiciously.

On the outside it looks like the old man is just wasting his time but his ears are spread all over this street.

Thanks to this the old man remembered Lennok’s face and name quite accurately which was rare.

He is an incredibly strange guy.

When I first saw him he was one of the unremarkable freelancers but now there is no one in the 40th district who doesn’t know his name.

There are very few people who do not know about the destruction of the gangster Siger Bang which ruled District 48 or the extermination of the warlocks who were plotting rebellion in the undeveloped area.

Not only was he capable of handling various types of magic with unknown origins but his fighting skills that allowed him to compete head-on with most warriors were becoming as famous as his name.

Sometimes when you search the deep web you will find many anonymous clients asking why Van has not been receiving nomination requests recently.

It is quite significant that this man who completely hides his identity including his place of residence real name and affiliation visits the orchard as the only activity other than requests performed under his official status.

Is his preference for the beginning of the year really just a preference or does it have more meaning?

The old man was also aware of the rumors going around so he kept an eye on the items he bought every time he stopped by the orchard.

Perhaps the secret to his extraordinary strength and growth speed may be hidden in the tobacco he smokes.

Lennok who was looking down at the old man with emotionless eyes slowly opened his mouth.

“I would like to buy medicine.”

“We have a lot of stuff ready. “If you have money you can take anything.”

The old man chuckled and rubbed his hands like flies.

It’s also unusual that he doesn’t look like he does it at all even though he makes extremely servile movements without hesitation.

“So what should I give you? It’s time for the Double Scarlet and Feather Fall you bought recently to wear off. But that’s the way it is. “If you look for a product that has no side effects you end up losing your taste for the slightly disappointing effects.”

“….”

“I know very well. Aren’t the feelings of all drug smokers the same? I understand. “I try to draw a line saying I can control it but this world of drugs is like a quagmire and once I get into it I can’t escape…”

The fact that the medicinal energy still glimmers in the eyes of the old man who says that proves his words more accurately than anything else.

But even after hearing those words Lennok’s gaze did not change.

Disappointed by the indifferent response the old man leaned back and shook his head.

“Now this time tell me what you want. I’m starting to wonder what kind of medicine half of District 49 likes. Once you start collecting samples it won’t be difficult to create a custom one that reflects your taste. “It’s a service for regulars but there’s nothing I can’t do for you.”

The old man said so and waited for Lennok’s answer.

Lennok looked around the spacious shelves behind the old man and said

“Please give me everything.”

“…what?”

“Samples of every type of medicine here.”
