Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 446
by Jessie@AFNCC
Words of Paradise (3)
“Aren’t you sleeping too long?”
“I was expecting it because I heard he brought us a useful force but it turns out he was a friend who sleeps more than I expected.”
“Take off your mask. “Let’s check your face.”
Flash!!
The moment he heard those words Lennok stood up and increased his magic power.
bang!!
The wave of magic power that spread around Lennok instantly struck all directions and made his body stand upright.
Someone who tried to touch his mask was swept away by the wave and fell over.
“Ugh fuck!! “You were surprised!!”
“If you were awake wouldn’t you have told me something? “I can’t tell because of the mask.”
A woman in skimpy clothes complaining while lying on the floor and a young man with so much white powder that his facial features are unrecognizable.
The powder-painted young man who looked comical at first glance squatted down on a nearby rock and looked down at Lennok as if he were amused.
A jungle landscape with unknown bushes and leaves can be seen behind you but strangely you don’t feel any heat or humidity.
Feeling an intuitive sense of discomfort Lennok quickly distanced himself from the two people and took a deep breath.
“Ha ha ha….”
electrical energy. mask. sleep a lot
Lennok who organized a series of keywords in an instant quickly looked back at his memories.
I accepted Myung’s offer took the Archangel’s Tears and even remember Myung moving the unconscious Lennok.
‘Archangel tears. ‘What’s the effect like?’
Inadvertently he awkwardly touches his body with both hands.
There was talk that it was an old world artifact that could extend lifespan but Lennok did not know whether the artifact would have a real effect on his body.
I thought it was one of the ways to eliminate Lennok’s penalty but I wasn’t sure if I could really escape the penalty with just that elixir.
In any case the fact that Lennok came to his senses at this point was proof that taking the elixir was successful.
It was only after circling the magical power from head to toe that Lennok realized the changes that had occurred in his body.
‘Overall increase in physical ability. Removal of impurities from the body. Magic flow fluidity increases by about 2 times. General strengthening of muscle fiber tissue….’

Finally Lennok noticed the change in his body and took a small breath.
The scars that appeared between the backs of my hands. The aftereffects of the injury sustained during the battle with Madric have completely disappeared.
It does not stop there but the skin is as soft as new skin and the condition of various body tissues.
Lennok who only then realized how the Archangel’s tears worked nodded.
‘I see. ‘Increasing lifespan means… reversing the age of the body.’
A relic that reverses the age of the body without interfering with any achievements accumulated so far.
That was the true purpose of the archangel’s tears which were said to extend lifespan.
Lennok who had been pondering the exact meaning of what had happened to his body nodded.
‘It’s not bad. This is certain.’
As expected it was not an item that resolved the penalty itself but it may have been more helpful to Lennok than that.
Originally Lennok’s body was abused to the point of death in a factory illegally built on the outskirts of a large city.
However by taking the Archangel’s Tears isn’t it the same as completely eliminating all the things that had caused Lennok’s poor health?
It was an incredible achievement considering that Lennok’s talent was not just based on his mind but also on his body.
If Archangel’s Tears are as effective as Lennok thinks there is room for customization in various ways even if ignoring the aftereffects of mana addiction…
“Hey can I talk to you a little bit now?”
The young man who appeared in front of Lennok’s mask shaking his head continued his conversation and asked.
“If you could wait until he wakes up shouldn’t you listen to our story now?”
A unique look where the face is painted with pure white powder and a smiling face is forcefully drawn.
It looked clumsy and awkward as if imitating the behavior of a clown but the magic flowing from its body was completely different.
A form of magic so strangely tangled that even Lennok could not guess its level.
Lennok who was casually measuring the opponent’s weight class frowned inside his mask.
‘jester.’
The name says that a clown will be waiting for you when you arrive.
In addition I remembered that Soryu and Ermont had mentioned that he was a complete crazy person right before he disappeared.
Even within Pandemonium he is not only in charge of the southernmost region of the continent but if he has been designated as the right person for this operation he will undoubtedly be a significant figure.
Since I couldn’t yet read the other person’s intentions properly I had to be careful about my actions.
“I was kind of looking forward to it because I heard he was a new recruit brought in but it would be difficult if he showed up like this.”
The young man said with a bright smile unaware of Lennok’s thoughts.
“The work we have to do from now on is definitely not the kind of work where you just have to figure out what to do and do it well.”
“….”
Lennok watched the young man’s movements before answering his words.
There were two green dice between his twirling fingers.
The young man who walked in front of Lennok clicking two dice slightly bowed his head and asked.
“You didn’t come here without hearing anything right? “At that rate it might be better not to have anything in this matter.”
“How much time is left until Gyebaek arrives at the well?”
“….”
The clown was left speechless by Lennok’s words.

That one word was enough to express how much Lennok knew right now.
“I understand that people cannot participate in this matter. “I just need to see if you guys can replace him.”
Considering that Myung had been the pseudo-projection’s alter ego from the time he came to visit Lennok it probably meant that he couldn’t leave right away either.
In that case it was necessary to confirm whether these two people who seemed to have been sent into the operation in his stead were capable of that level.
Because it would be impossible to carry out an insane plan like throwing Gyebaek into the well of handbooks without verifying the team members.
“Oh so you want to check our skills?”
Only then did the other person squirm and stand up spitting.
A red-haired woman wearing skimpy clothes and flicking her hair.
“A really arrogant and arrogant guy has come. Is this working properly? “Maybe I should contact Agneta.”
Unlike the simple gestures the attire is so dazzling that it feels brilliant rather than extravagant.
Even his movements look uncomfortable as if he had just been dragged out of a concert hall somewhere.
‘Wait a concert…?’
Lennok whose thoughts had reached that point looked closely at the woman’s face and muttered.
“It’s a face I feel like I’ve seen before…”
“Kkhyahahaha!!”
At that moment the clown who heard Lennok’s muttering burst into laughter.
Conversely the woman’s face was crumpled like water-soaked paper.
“Did you hear Leya? It’s a face I’ve seen a lot somewhere!!! “Kihihihi it’s so funny I’m dying!!”
“Stop fucking laughing! “You bastard!!”
A blushing woman named Reya screamed.
The volume and tone were abnormally clear and high and the moment he thought it sounded familiar to Lennok’s ears the clown couldn’t stop laughing and said.
“Hehehe that’s possible. It can happen. “Is there any problem with not knowing the face of the self-proclaimed most famous diva on the continent?”
The most famous diva on the continent.
After hearing that far Lennok realized who the woman was and nodded.
As civilization developed through magic engineering the entertainment and culture of this world also developed similarly to where Lennok lived.
A world where superstars and celebrities are idolized through music acting and dancing.
And the woman standing in front of Lennok was an incredibly famous singer on this continent.
‘Freya Carlins. I think it was that kind of name…’
Maybe it was because I only saw his face on the electronic display board hanging on the outside wall of the building on a random day but when I saw him in front of me I didn’t even notice him.
No I never thought that such a singer would be in this position as a member of Pandemonium.
Lennok who was staring at Reya’s trembling body shook his head.
“Now that’s enough. I remembered who it was. “I never thought someone like you would be in a place like this.”
Behind the mask a cold gaze shined somewhere.
“And with such a striking behavior.”
“Fuck this isn’t my fault either!!”
Reya couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted again. Contrary to his appearance he seemed extremely hot-tempered.
“남대륙 투어 공연 준비 중에 다짜고짜 이 개새끼가 끌고 온 것뿐이라고!! “I’ll go back as soon as I finish my work so just know that you bastard!”
“I understand I understand.”
The clown tickled his ear as Reya who was hot-tempered but loud even with her mouth shouted.
“How many times do I tell you that you can hear everything even if you don’t shout like that? “I’m going to do all the work anyway so why are you so upset and angry?”
“What you son of a bitch!!”
Reya grabs the clown’s collar and starts shaking it and the clown sways helplessly under her touch.
Both of them had a light attitude that did not fit with the reputation of Pandemonium that Lennok had seen so far but Lennok was not fooled by that appearance.
If this man is really in charge of this matter it would mean that the clown’s abilities are no less than that of a monster.
“What can you do when you are the only useful person in the South? Soryu is the only one who has a mental head but I don’t want to call the jewel magician who hangs around with me because he’s really uncomfortable.”
After saying that the clown released Reya’s hand from her collar with a single gesture and adjusted her clothes.
“Hmm first of all to answer your question earlier… Gyebaek will arrive at the well within half a day.”
“….”
“Until a month ago no one paid any attention to it because it was crawling deep in the ocean but not long ago it landed on the southern coast and started speeding up.”
Now that I think about it I see a faint stream of water flowing like a canal where Gyebaek passed.
At the time I didn’t pay attention to what the monster that failed to ascend looked like but it wasn’t strange if the sea water was flowing in because it was near the coast.
In the middle of a remote jungle where no one comes near. There are just stories that make it hard to believe that three people are gathered together in a place like this.
But the clown continued speaking as if the location had nothing to do with it.
“The well in the handbook cannot be accessed through ordinary means but I have a way to open it. All we have to do is take advantage of the two monsters clashing and push Gyebaek into the well.”
“I want to ask you something about that.”
Lennok said with his arms crossed.
“The being called Gyebaek that I saw was not something that could be lifted carried or touched with one’s body.”
“Hoo.”
Lennok ignoring the clown’s strange exclamation asked again.
“How do you plan to push Gyebaek into the well when you don’t know how the handbook will come out? “Are other people just quietly watching?”
Gyebaek a living piece of Geass is pushed out of the well and used as a bullet to be fired toward the open sea.
Although it is understandable that the intention is to test whether the bomb called Gyebaek can effectively hit the monster in the open sea.
Whether it was possible to directly implement that ridiculous process into reality was another matter.
Compared to Gyebaek not many facts are known about the Ascendant’s Manual on the surface but it is certain that he is not a completely crazy monster like Gyebaek.
No matter how uninterested you are in the secular world you cannot be so detached that you ignore the teachings that come into your area.
At a time when the conflict between enlightenment and manuals has become self-evident how on earth should we help in that matter?
Although Lennok had built up the hierarchy at an unprecedented rate he was not sure whether he was able to achieve what he wanted among the ascended.
Didn’t even Zindun Zygis Ethernor who was dying reign as a god-like being within his labyrinth?
It is difficult to be sure that one’s body can be safely found inside the well.
A basis was needed to establish that all these premises could be established and the plan could be successful.
“Hmm hmm. “Not a bad question.”
But after listening to everything Lennok said the clown shook his head.
“But it looks like you didn’t come here after being fully explained about what happened?”
“what?”
“Well I understand. In fact it is difficult to know the inside story unless you are directly involved. “If you think about it you’re probably much younger than you seem on the outside.”
Bah!!
Reya who was quietly listening to the clown next to him hit the clown on the head with the iron bar he was holding.
With a loud noise like a bomb exploding the clown’s head explodes.
However even when Reya faced the terrible sight directly she reacted with an expression of annoyance.
“If you have something to say do it quickly bastard. “Just like he said Hansi is busy. Why are you pretending to be relaxed?”
“…It’s too much. “Don’t you know the term ‘ice breaker’?”
A clown’s head sprouts out of nowhere inside the neck where the head has exploded.
A humorous gesture as if his head was hidden in his lapel.
“Can you say you’re a celebrity since you don’t know my efforts to lighten the tight atmosphere?”
“okay?”
Reya snorted.
“Don’t you just want to see how far your pranks work for this guy?”
“Shall we get to the point? Of course the situation you are assuming is reasonable but there is no need to worry too much.”
The clown said without any hesitation.
“The well of the handbook is a magical sutra that rivals the entire history but if Gyebaek approaches the well he won’t have time to worry about us.”
“You talk as if Gyebaek will crawl into the well of the handbook on his own.”
“Of course. It was just a matter of timing it was something that would happen at any time. “Any tycoon who remembers the days when the central city was alive and well will know this.”
“…what?”
“Hmm it’s a bit complicated to explain this… It looks like the person sent it without much explanation. Or are you saying that he is a talented person who can do his job without any explanation?…”
The clown who was contemplating with his arms crossed continued speaking with difficulty.
“To put it simply the purpose of creating Gyebaek itself was one of the central city’s plans to attack wells.”
“I see.”
“…Did you understand what I just said?”
“I heard that the central city was trying to make Gyebaek a strategic weapon. “The purpose itself is to be in the well of the handbook.”
“….”
Lennok immediately spoke on behalf of the silent clown.
“Aren’t you saying that a significant portion of the Geass that makes up the being called Gyebaek is probably related to the well of the handbook and that it was made to move by touching it?”
“Hey.”
Reya who was looking at Lennok with her arms crossed next to her smiled.
“I was a little disappointed because he showed up so awkwardly but he’s much smarter than I thought.”
“…That’s right. “Reya it took you more than three days to understand this simple fact.”
“….”
Bah!!
The clown’s head is smashed once more and a new head pops out from inside the neck.
Lennok narrowed his eyes watching the figure carefully through the mask.
‘It’s not an illusion. ‘He is clearly injured from the impact of his skull collapsing.’
According to Reya the clown is definitely testing Lennok to see how far he can recognize the clown’s pranks.
The repetition of nonsensical resurrections in front of Lennok’s eyes must be part of that.
Considering the circumstances surrounding the situation the strange sense of discomfort that surrounds this space and the faint sense of déjà vu felt by the clown there is no doubt…
The conversation continued with Lennok drawing his own conclusions.
“Well it’s not wrong. In a way this is very accurate. “Because one of the parties who placed geas on Gyebaek at the time pulled the trigger.”
“….”
“Some may say that the existence of Gyebaek is Arsnova’s biggest failure but I think differently.”
The clown muttered slightly looking away from Lennok who did not respond.
“They succeeded. They knew how to take even the noble mission of ascension into their own hands and control it. “It’s just that everything fell apart before we could fully see the results.”
A central city that controlled even the mission of ascension to its own will.
With Lennok’s experience and knowledge it is impossible to even guess what level of civilization and technology it had reached.
But what does it mean that a city with such great power collapsed in the aftermath of the Black Consumer Project?
What is the being called Alkaid who is deeply involved in all of this dreaming of?
Aside from listening to Reya and the clown Lennok did not forget why he was standing here.
It is not because he was influenced by the thoughts of the leader or the leader.
I am just standing here to see and judge with my own eyes the dreams and desires of Pandemonium.
Then what had to be done was also decided.
“…good. “I understand.”
Lennok stood up adjusting his mask and nodded.
“Then let’s go downstairs and get to work.”
“Getting off? “Where do you get off in this jungle?”
Lennok was unmoved by the clown’s naturally virtuous response.
Even if you are a little late in understanding what kind of prank he is talking about you should not show any signs of understanding it later.
In Lennok’s eyes this strangely kind clown seemed like a much more dangerous opponent than Reya who was crossing her arms with a sour face.
Lennok who decided that he needed to go out strong made his move immediately.
Phew!!
Using the blink technique he goes behind the clown and without hesitation places his hand on his shoulder.
“I said that everyone who would know has known this since the days when the central city was alive and well.”
“…!”
Lennok said looking at the back of the clown who was reacting faintly.
“It’s strange that the jungle is so quiet so soon before the clash between the Ascendants. Don’t you think so?”
“Is that so…?”
Instead of answering Lennok turned his gaze towards Reya.
“The position of the ground that the two people are stepping on is strangely the same and it even shakes sometimes… At first I thought it was an optical illusion caused by unstable magical power in the area but it wasn’t.”
“….”
Lennok smiled slowly turning in front of the clown who did not respond.
“Can I say one last thing? “I also think names are pretty arbitrary but I’m not the kind of person who would leave a fainted person on the ground.”
“Oh that’s it.”
The clown who had been quietly listening to Lennok until then started laughing again.
“That’s an answer I didn’t expect.”
Shoot!!
At that moment the magnificent jungle scenery surrounding the three people began to melt away as if washed away by rain.
What catches the eye at the same time is the appearance of a pitch-black bulkhead that is tightly closed on all sides.
A bright red light illuminates between the constantly shaking floor and clouds are visible outside the darkened window.
Doo doo doo doo!!!
Why is the noise and vibration so intense that I didn’t notice it until now?
Lennok looked at the shape of an old truck stuck inside the bulkhead and immediately realized where this was.
An aircraft hovering thousands of meters above ground.
It is also a huge airship that can easily fly while carrying a truck.
All kinds of cargo and containers were piled up like a mountain inside the bulkhead of the airship which was so spacious that it was almost like an empty space.
As if the quiet air just moments before had been a lie sharp slashes of death were pouring down at Lennok from all over the bulkhead.
His entire body is covered in a pitch black suit and only a red laser pointer is pointed in this direction.
The vast space inside the bulkhead of an airship. A drinking circle of an unknown and strange shape drawn on the floor where three people are standing.
The clown grinned at Lennok in the center and spread his arms wide.
“This is the eighth time I have personally become aware of the existence of the silver ship Besponir. This can be said to be sufficient to pass the exam. “Then shall we start planning the strategy properly from now on?”
