    But it’s something you’ll have to think about after following Evelyn to the Magic Tower.

    As he went downstairs to the bar Jenny greeted him with a bored expression.

    “I heard a vague story from Eveline Marcia. “They said they wanted to borrow half of you.”

    “okay.”

    The extreme acceleration of consciousness that occurred at the general meeting of executives. There are only a few people who noticed more than that.

    There would be no need to tell her about Ming’s intervention and the battle of fortune.

    Jenny sighed as Lennok responded with a faint smile.

    “Well I won’t say anything because it’s something you decided but… you know? “The rumors there are really scary these days.”

    “….”

    “The old guys at Blazer Magic Tower are famous for being a bit talkative so there must be a reason why they don’t even mention it even after getting into a fight with Bokmajeon.”

    Jenny also seemed to have a rough idea of ​​the story even if she only saw and heard it through newspapers or news.

    “It would be nice if things worked out smoothly but….”

    “We are not going to deal with the Magic Tower but rather to investigate the extent to which they are in collusion with the Demon Tower.”

    Lennok said.

    “If you don’t want to make things worse I’m sure they’ll cooperate to some extent. Even if the agent doesn’t make any income it won’t be that bad for me…”

    Although he has already received ample compensation this is even more so because Lennok himself knows why this happened.

    Since I knew that Blaver Magic Tower had joined hands with a drug lord and played tricks on the Dominion I didn’t feel any responsibility for turning the attention of the Pandemonium in that direction.

    Even so shouldn’t we check how the cause and effect created by Lennoc ended?

    Once you confirm that this type of disguise actually works well it will be possible to deal with it more easily the next time you become involved in a phantom battle.

    ‘In the end it will inevitably become entangled with Pandemonium in some way…’

    One can guess that in this era when monsters from the open sea are coming he will not be able to escape without luck.

    No I would be lying if I said I didn’t have an ominous idea that Lennok’s entanglement itself was related to this series of events.

    Therefore Lennok felt the need to approach the battle from this side.

    The need to select the necessary information against enemies he can handle rather than against monsters that he cannot immediately touch like Myeong or Kroken.

    Simply the information I heard from Blue Eyes or Lapis is not enough.

    In Pandemonium what it means to open the sky and why it is necessary to destroy the current order by bringing in monsters from the open sea.

    Perhaps this might be an opportunity for Lennok.

    * * *

    Undeveloped area. Desert area.

    Early in the morning the sun has not yet risen.

    Winter is coming and the average temperature is gradually rising but even so breath leaks out during this time.

    Lennok who was leaning against the light of the tobacco in his mouth raised his head when he felt a familiar figure approaching nearby.

    “You’re late.”

    Buaaaa!!

    Three men and women led by Evelyn were running toward us pulling two jeeps.

    A large off-road tire with a rough sand color. The loosely fastened iron bars are impressive.

    It seemed like they had made some preparations as they had to think about not just crossing the desert but also the volcanic area where the magic tower was located.

    Evelyn stuck her head out from the passenger seat and smiled at Lennok.

    “Have you waited long? There are a lot of things to prepare. “It will take a week to reach the volcanic area so you need more than one or two items.”

    “It doesn’t matter. “I didn’t wait that long.”

    He too had just arrived on a bike and had used a shrinking spell to store it.

    Lennok had also visited the cartel’s executive safe as well as the warlock Raoul’s artifact store for today.

    As we did not know what would happen at the Blaver Magic Tower we could not neglect our preparations.

    As Lennok climbed into the back seat of the Jeep the driver behind the wheel immediately began driving the Jeep out of the city.

    Doo doo doo doo!

    Leaving behind the metropolitan city where dawn is beginning to dawn we run through the desert inhaling sand dust.

    The agent behind the wheel chuckled but Lennok and Evelyn’s expressions were extremely calm.

    As soon as the sun begins to rise the temperature rises quickly.

    Faced with the howling wind Lennok took off his coat and stored it away using a shrinking spell.

    After putting on a thin shirt I felt much lighter.

    One jeep was loaded with three people and the other jeep was loaded with two people and luggage.

    Evelyn spoke as if she had noticed Lennok’s gaze.

    “It’s a gift for the old folks at Blaver Magic Tower. “No matter how much we are here we can’t go out and openly investigate the Magic Tower so we have to set our guard up a bit.”

    “It’s a gift that the high-ranking wizards of the Magic Tower will like…”

    “It’s similar to what I gave you as an advance fee. Things like rare medicinal herbs or elixirs. Do you know how many older drinkers are obsessed with their health?”

    “….”

    There is no way Lennok who once competed with an apostate monk obsessed with life would not know that.

    I’ve already seen how obsessed older people are with time while holding on to their power.

    Although I only saw one side of it in my work with the cartel I also knew that other magicians were not that different.

    In fact wasn’t Lennok himself running tirelessly like this to throw off his own shackles?

    While I was lost in thought the jeep quickly left the Balkan and began to move.

    Undeveloped area. An area where well-known pollutants are still alive as a side effect of the Black Consumer Project.

    [Keeee!!]

    As if it were natural Lennok and Evelyn move forward instantly wiping out the monsters that are rushing towards the living creatures.

    I felt the gaze of vagabonds living in an undeveloped area without even proper resident registration but as I made up my mind and ran just to get out of the desert area the clingy gaze quickly disappeared.

    After passing through the magnetic storm located beyond the desert area the grassland with living bushes begins to become visible again.

    Only then did different landscapes begin to appear beyond the empty horizon.

    “hmm.”

    Lennok sat down against the back of the jeep and began to take in the sights around him.

    Even when I left for the Dominion I went outside the Balkans but this was my first time moving in this direction.

    In terms of the direction the party is heading it is a route that slightly deviates from the center of the continent.

    In other words it is a street that passes next to the front line where the Balkan defense forces are located.

    Direction to the right where the jeep is running. Lennok cast his eyes at the gigantic object that vaguely appeared between the mountain ranges as the wind blew across the grasslands.

    It is so large that it can be clearly seen even from a great distance.

    The sight of slowly moving between mountain ranges while supporting the body with eight long forked legs is so powerful that once you see it you cannot easily forget it.

    “Is this a mobile fortress for the National Guard?…”

    Evelyn also turned her head to Lennok’s muttering.

    “Normally he would be waiting in camouflage mode but it’s been a while since I’ve seen him in person.”

    “….”

    Lennok had only heard about it through rumors but this was his first time seeing it with his own eyes.

    The core of military power that supports the defense line that exists in a megacity.

    Siege warfare and artillery warfare centered on several mobile forts closely connected to the front line were a symbol of the megacity and in the latter half of the war the fortress itself sometimes served as a front line.

    The contribution made by that iron fortress until the creation of Balkan which threw off its affiliation as a nation and established itself as a city-state was incomparable anywhere.

    Now it was slowly rusting away in the precarious peace.

    “Recently there is talk that they are focusing only on maintenance as the waiting order gets longer. “It is clear that it is better for the lifespan of such mobile fortresses to continuously operate rather than stand still… but it cannot be helped.”

    At Evelyn’s words the agent who had not said a word while behind the wheel opened his mouth.

    “Among my classmates there are many who want to return to the city. A major reduction in the size of ground forces is probably inevitable.”

    “Were you from the military?”

    The agent nodded slightly at Lennok’s words.

    “I was injured during the war and was discharged from the military.”

    “There are quite a few retired soldiers among the agents. “They can immediately go into operations without any training and they feel much more comfortable than on the battlefield…”

    Evelyn said that and smiled at Lennok.

    “It’s similar to Dray who joined your company.”

    “…did you know?”

    “Of course nothing much was said because Dray Krimgar was collecting it but if that number of special forces soldiers were released into the city at once there would be trouble one way or another.”

    Listening to Evelyn’s words it seemed like the agent’s evaluation of Drei Crimgall was quite high.

    Considering his insight and character it was not impossible to understand as he was more than capable of taking on the position of head of an organization.

    “Originally we were planning to recruit additional members here who had nowhere else to go… but our situation has been so bad recently that we had no choice.”

    “….”

    “Except for the Air Force which has a fleet force all other military departments are currently experiencing large-scale budget cuts. “In the end the military force protecting the Balkans will be reorganized around the fleet.”

    Lennok was lost in thought as Evelyn muttered the words as she looked at the fortress with a complicated expression.

    If you think about it didn’t Lennok also meet quite a few retired soldiers?

    Considering that the head of the Scavenger branch whom I met during an operation with the Krimgal office and the arms dealer Beck Clinton of the Cigar Bang gang were also retired soldiers living in a satellite city it was not something that happened yesterday or today. .

    In addition to the Dray currently employed at his company and the current employees he recruited.

    Considering that a significant number of people are returning to the city after completing their military service it is not an issue that can be ignored.

    The mobile fortress that stood tall between the mountain ranges seems to have completed maintenance and is slowly losing its original color and starting to blend into the surrounding landscape.

    The jeep ran through the grassland at high speed passing the fortress that quickly became blurry and disappeared.

    * * *

    Crazy!!

    The light rising through the darkness instantly passes by Evelyn’s shoulder and disappears.

    Night in the meadow. When the moon is waning even starlight cannot illuminate the ground properly.

    Only the light of each other’s magical power softly illuminates the surroundings.

    Evelyn glanced at the electric light that had disappeared behind her and moved forward without hesitation.

    In keeping with her steps the sand that suddenly popped out from under the ground grabbed her legs and the shock waves falling from above her head limited her space to avoid.

    Let’s go!!

    However the sand rising from the ground whipped around helplessly in the air and her new form which made a narrow leap quickly closed the distance towards the opponent.

    At the same time as she raises her magical power green light blooms from her eyes and the eye light that wavers like a will-o’-the-wisp in the air rushes in without hesitation.

    Baba baba bak!!

    No one present could tell exactly how many times the arm stretched out in the darkness stirred the space.

    The noise left behind by the violent rotation of her shoulders is the only thing that gives an idea of ​​the speed.

    However rather than retreating her opponent also received the fierce attack from the front.

    Damn it…!!

    A greedy open maw rises from the shadows beneath her feet and at the same time the rushing electric light surrounds her on all sides and tightens around her.

    The magicians individually attached to the ends of the dozens of lightning bolts flashing in the darkness trembled precisely adjusting their positions and precisely compressing the space.

    Wow!!

    Doo doo doo doo doo!!!

    A lightning bolt the size of an forearm rotated as it struck the spot where Evelyn was standing without mercy.

    Every time it hits the ground it flashes and explodes.

    It creates a series of dust on the ground but in the midst of it an intangible flash of light stirs without hesitation and moves straight ahead.

    The most elegant footwork as if walking on clouds.

    But even more impressive than that is its agility that seems to defy the laws of physics.

    Although the speed itself is slow as if there is no need to exert all one’s might the movements shown when dodging the attacks coming from all directions contain more than seven directions in one breath.

    Evidence that he is fully aware of the location and speed of the onslaught coming from all directions and calculates the movement route in his head.

    Apart from the fluid movement the number of attacks and defenses that are broken also increases rapidly as time goes by.

    Not only is it not enough to fully recover the magic power once released without wasting it it catches the missed attack on the spot and explodes it using it as a stepping stone for the next attack or defense.

    By going beyond dots or lines to fill the surface and occupying the entire space he blocks Evelyn’s approach and at the same time gradually increases the power of the magic.

    The number of magicians controlling the released magic power continues to increase and the middle of the grassland is lit up with a flash so intense that it was previously impossible to see.

    Paaaaaa!!!

    “Let’s stop here.”

    As soon as those words were finished the dark green flash held in Evelyn’s hand flew through the air tearing up the magic scattered everywhere.

    Wow!!

    With a strange sound as if all magical energy was being crushed a gap suddenly appeared in the siege that had been attacking her from all over the area.

    The residual magic that passed through her exquisitely as if she had made a promise exploded in all directions.

    Kwaaaa!!

    Only then did Lennok put down the hand he was holding.

    His expression was calm but the tobacco he had in his mouth had already burned all the way to the end of the filter.

    It was easy to guess how focused Lennok had been maintaining his concentration just a moment ago.

    Evelyn smiled lightly as she walked towards Lennok.

    “I guessed it when you asked me this but it exceeded my expectations.”

    “….”

    “If you can manipulate magic so precisely is it possible to attack and defend against the vanguard from the front? “Seeing it in person makes me even more incomprehensible.”

    “That’s not something I’d listen to from someone who’s taken that one in stride.”

    Lennok answered with a sour expression.

    The battle certainly looked quite intense but Lennok knew that she was not able to bring out her full strength.

    Until now all that Evelin had in her hand was one arrow.

    She had not even taken out her own equipment but had been fending off Lennok’s attacks with the single arrow built into the equipment.

    Considering that most linemen let alone ordinary wizards cannot even estimate Lennok’s attack or defense it is possible to guess the extent of Evelyn’s skills.

    Even if she wasn’t originally good at close combat wasn’t she?

    But Evelyn shook her head and laughed.

    “You haven’t used any high-ranking magic so… well that’s fine. Let’s leave it at this for today. “I guess we can figure out how much we need to control our strength and mix our hands while going to the volcanic area.”

    After saying that she sat down against a nearby rock and ran her fingers through her hair.

    Even though she was running everywhere like a ghost not a single drop of sweat ran down her face.

    “If you have any questions I’ll answer them. “Ask.”

    “…Wait a moment.”

    As Lennok looked at her like that he slowly began to recall the sparring that had just happened.

    Evelyn’s strangely active attitude was quite different from before but no one in the group here pointed out that.

    The last condition Lennok placed in return for accepting Evelyn’s request.

    That was the condition for Evelyn to be Lennok’s combat training partner while traveling to and from the volcanic region.
