Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 221



General meeting of executives (3)

After handing the invitation to those guarding the stadium and entering Lennok was immediately greeted by a richly decorated hallway.

Executive general meeting held for the first time in decades.

It goes without saying how carefully the secretaries assisting the Chairman prepared for this day.

There are no signs anywhere to indicate that it is a sports stadium giving the feeling of standing in the middle of a huge palace.

Chandeliers hung from the dome-covered ceiling and soft lighting illuminated the ground.

widely!

“…”

As soon as you walk into the main hall you feel countless eyes focused on you from all directions.

Each and every emotion contained in those gazes was felt vividly by Lennok.

Anger helplessness disappointment frustration curiosity and interest…. Intense emotions felt regardless of degree or line.

It was a tribute to the adversary who had cut off the cartel’s hands and feet more efficiently than anyone else for nearly a month.

Lennok didn’t bother to pay attention to them and sat down in the seat with his name written on it looking up at the podium.

Above the podium as wide as a football stadium. The sight of these people standing looking down in all directions each occupying four directions comes into view.

Four monsters who reveal their endless magical power without even hiding it.

A bald giant with bronze skin and extensive tattoos.

A muscular young man with white hair.

A girl with fluorescent hair who glares at people with a harsh attitude.

Even a nervous-looking middle-aged woman wearing a dress.

The four highest-ranking executives who command a giant cartel.

‘In order McQueen Virgil Merilda Cansoa…. The entire president’s team was in attendance.’

Virgil already knows him and has a rough idea of ​​who Merilda is.

The dagger that Avid Johnsen used to kill Lennok at the end.

According to information floating around on the deep web it is called Merilda’s Fang which has strong magic resistance.

There was no way that the fluorescent-haired girl’s fangs were this size so there was a very high possibility that Merilda was not an ordinary human.

In the case of Kansoa there is no information other than that he is an excellent ice-type magician… but I guess that is not that important.

Lennok’s sharp gaze was directed at the bald giant standing at the forefront of the presidents.

He has the appearance of an ascetic wearing an old long robe and holding a faded stone sword in his hand.

Tattoos all over the body shrink to match the wrinkled skin and accessories to hide age take their place.

Parden McQueen the first president of the cartel.

Oliveira Ron Maze’s closest associate who has been with him for the longest time and a loyalist among loyalists who even holds the authority of vice president in times of emergency.

It is said that he was originally a high monk who devoted himself to training in the Evatra Mountains but after meeting Oliveira he broke the taboo and became an apostate monk and came down the mountain.

The techniques and martial arts he developed through repeated training became his full strength and since then he has made the greatest contribution to maintaining the business as Oliveira’s right-hand man.

His conservative tendencies in corporate management were one of the biggest contributors to leading the cartel which was characterized by weak solidarity to this point.

His unique tendency to protect himself led him to betray the organization he had grown.

‘It’s ironic…’

His personal information was barely obtained through the information gathered through Evelyn and Jenny.

It is unmistakable considering the traces of Girard Ozette’s direct superior and the fact that he secretly held and wielded the cartel’s execution unit in his hands.

Farden McQueen was the traitor who first touched Jenny’s bar and caused internal strife in the cartel.

The problem is when Virgil realized this fact…

[Everyone came on time.]

Before I could even get lost in my thoughts a soft female voice rang out.

A tone that is neither high nor low. A voice that is not only calm but emotionless.

While everyone gathered here raised their heads and searched for the epicenter a seven-pronged warm wind blew and instantly began to illuminate the image of one person.

Whoa!!

Natural movements as if they had been standing there from the beginning.

Gorgeous colored coats fluttering on the floor and a hazy veil covering pure white hair.

But leaving all that behind the first thing that caught my eye was the intense color of light shining beyond the veil.

The moment their eyes met the light those who felt dizzy avoided their gaze all at once but others were silently receiving her brilliant gaze.

‘Is that the magical eye of Chilchaebo that I heard rumors about?…’

Lennok’s eyes naturally sank deeply.

Not only does it have the highest output among magical eyes but it is also one of the highest-level magical eyes that is said to be unique in terms of its class.

It is said that she possesses a strange power that allows her to read everything about others just by making eye contact… but the magic that can be felt from her now is not that much.

No matter how much you wear a veil and block your eyes there is no way the brilliance of the Mystic Eyes is only this much.

‘It looks like he has no intention of showing himself in person.’

As Lennok thought so he glanced outside.

There is no need to guess how enormous the public power currently gathered near this stadium is.

In a situation where everyone’s attention is focused like this it is bound to be a burden for the cartel to reveal the chairman’s true identity.

It also meant that the Chairman really intended to invite Lennok here for the purpose of conversation.

Oliveira opened her mouth quietly looking around without trying to hide the light in her eyes that was shining through the veil.

[Thank you everyone for being here today.]

As her magical power trembled the sound of Yukhapjeon filled the vast hall.

[I am so happy that all the relationships I have made over the years were not in vain. Even though decades have passed our friendship has not changed.]

“….”

[There was a time when just checking it was enough.]

‘I can’t read it well….’

The sight of Oliveira calmly continuing her conversation was clearly visible to everyone seated here but Lennok frowned faintly as he realized the difficult way of being.

It is certain that he appeared here using the same method as his alter ego but it is not clear how he uses magical power.

Because he has reached a certain level he can hide the flow to some extent even from Lennok’s eyes.

If Lennok had not seen a new horizon through a chance encounter he might not have even felt her magic.

[But time passes and everything changes. Now an era has come where it is not strange for anything to happen in this city.]

‘It is certain that the flow of magic power is artificially controlled through the magical eye. I think you’ll find out if you look a little closer….’

However it is possible to uncover the secret if sufficient time is given for understanding and analysis.

A talent that is not bound by the gap in level. Just understand and absorb whoever the other person is.

But before Lennok could come to a clear conclusion Oliveira made the first move.

[I stand here in person today to show you the evidence. The fact that even an oath of one hundred years can be scattered like a candle in the wind.]

“…!!”

Lennok’s eyes widened as he finally understood what she intended to bring everyone together.

Oliveira walked slowly.

Sabagsabag. The sound of spray rubbing against the floor.

The apostate monk who had his eyes closed slowly raised his head.

His lord who had been loyal his entire life looked up at him with an indifferent expression.

[McQueen. Do you have any last words?]

* * *

“…You’re cruel.”

McQueen opened his mouth in a heavy voice.

“You all already know how I will answer right?”

okay. What would be the point of turning away now?

From the moment Girard Ozette’s new recruit was handed over to Virgil everything was already over.

Virgil opened his eyes hollowly and cast his gaze among the crowd of people looking up at this spot.

Sharp impression. A tall young man with a thin build.

He wraps himself in a black coat and sinks into a chair looking up at McQueen with a calm expression.

It was my first time meeting him face to face but I knew him right away.

That that man was the one who pulled the trigger for his downfall.

I knew he was a talented wizard.

He is also a freelancer who has increased his reputation by accumulating performance at an unusual rate.

Rather I thought that was why it was carefully selected as a stepping stone for this project.

Once the cartel’s financial planning department turned its attention to the damage he had caused it would not have been difficult to steal the desired slush funds from within.

It wasn’t until much later that I felt that things were getting out of control.

As soon as Lennok caught Girard he noticed the internal strife in the organization and attempted to make a deal with Virgil using that information as collateral.

As soon as Virgil identified the traitor inside he notified the chairman.

The moment he realized his betrayal everything was already over.

Even after exposing his indecent behavior in front of thousands of people McQueen’s expression did not waver one bit.

He looked around the audience with wide eyes and finally knelt down towards the chairman.

Wow!!

“I won’t make any lame excuses. However I would like to correct the mistakes I made with my own hands.”

[That’s fun. I can’t believe that you who were more passionate than anyone else when it came to protecting yourself would not make any excuses…]

“….”

McQueen remained silent as Oliveira’s words were mixed with a faint smile.

Because her words penetrated his true feelings with utmost sharpness.

Even at the moment when he was in a desperate situation McQueen’s head was busy.

There was no option to rely on the affection that had been shared for decades.

The first thing you have to do in order to survive in this place is to eliminate the group that is the main culprit.

It was a matter of clearing away the mistake he had made.

[Then let’s do it like this.]

Oliveira spun around and stood in the center of the podium again.

A general meeting gathering thousands of people. However regardless of its meaning only she is freely projecting her will.

It is a game that runs as she intended from beginning to end. Everyone knew.

[My old friend wants to quit his hard work and return to being a wild man. I don’t want to betray his wishes. But wouldn’t discipline be disrupted if the hand that commanded the existing affiliates was removed?]

“….”

[I have already looked for talent in preparation for moments like this so all you have to do is take over McQueen.]

McQueen asked without thinking as an ominous thought suddenly occurred to him.

“There’s no way he’s that talented….”

[There was a wizard right next to us who advised us that our promise had become meaningless.]

The corners of Oliveira’s mouth revealed beneath the veil were greatly curved.

[I think a child named Ban is qualified enough.]

A freezing silence fell in the convention hall.

In other words the person who will take over the last task of the traitorous McQueen is half.

Doesn’t this mean that he will be incorporated into the cartel’s new leadership team?

Only then did the cartel executives understand the meaning of those words and turned their heads with shocked expressions.

Lennok noticed the gaze of those around him and slightly lowered his head.

The expression hidden beneath the hair was already faintly frowning.

‘I was aiming for this from the beginning.’

If the intention was to purge the faction that betrayed the cartel there is no reason to hold such a grand general meeting in the first place.

Now this whole situation was just an excuse to invite Lennok with a plausible cause.

Is this the reason why Virgil hasn’t contacted them yet and why strangely nothing has happened in the cartel since handing over Girard?

Oliveira Ron Maze heard about Lennok’s abilities through Girard and decided to take him under her command.
