Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 508

The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 508
Interim closing (9)
Looking at the statue’s tightly clenched fist Lennok slowly imprints his thoughts.
Wooooow!!!
Reprint information from the old world through 8 levels of causal adjustment.
It is said that the desired information will be provided to the subject but Lennok was already aware of the blind spots that the doctor did not mention.
‘It’s not like you can get paid for any information you want.’
The power of the divine being is not to directly read the cause and effect of a world that has already been destroyed and extract information.
In short some of the data extracted from old world artifacts and information that Pandemonium has collected so far is returned to the members.
There is no doubt that since this type of settlement is adopted in the first place the accumulated old world data and technical information is truly enormous.
Of course he had to consider the case where the information Lenno wanted was not in the personal database.
‘In the worst case there is a possibility that I won’t get the information I want and only my purpose will be conveyed to the doctor.’
Information that Lennok needs right now but which Bokmajeon is likely to have obtained through his previous work.
However it is a theme that is useless in guessing or inferring the identity of Lennok himself.
At the same time it is a secret that is valuable enough to be able to fully use the enormous adjustment value of 8 levels.
By the time Lennok heard the word settlement he had already made his decision.
Whoa…!!
As the desired intention was transmitted to the doctor through the divine image he let out a faint sigh.
“Hoo this… how could you….”
“If it’s difficult do something else.”
“…No it’s okay. However at this point…”
The doctor who was just pondering this and that eventually nodded.
“However this settlement may be reported to the manager at a later date. “If you don’t mind I’ll give you permission.”
“Is that what you call it?”
Lennok chuckled.
“Let’s talk about it after at least getting in touch with the leader.”

“…If you know that much it won’t matter.”
The doctor who was laughing strangely wriggled and at the same time a faint light emanated from the statue.
Keyee…!!
At the same time the statue’s hand which was tightly clenched slowly opened and an old booklet engulfed in mysterious magic appeared inside.
A feast of unknown drinking methods and ancient letters densely engraved on dozens of sheets of crumpled paper that looked as if they would crumble at any moment.
Even the name written at the front of the booklet is blurred and distorted making it hard to see.
But Lennok glanced at it and put it in his arms without the slightest hesitation.
In fact it is absolutely impossible at this point for this item to be properly settled.
And because I knew that the other members should never notice that fact.
‘The 5th Act of Fateful Balance.’
An item that Lenno remembers in WORLD 1.0 was well known as the legendary arcane tome.
Although it was famous as a top-level magic textbook that was said to contain the ultimate meaning of five different systems there were only a very small number of players who actually used this grimoire.
This is because the Magic Book of the Fateful Libra which only contains the extreme meanings of the five systems without any special curriculum was of little use to magicians who had difficulty learning multiple systems at the same time.
There were even rumors that the grimoire of the 5 Extreme Arts itself was an imitation of the transcendental system’s unique magic [10 World Laws] which only existed in the setting so regardless of its power and unique content it was already worth its value by the time WORLD 2.0 was released. It was the object that crashed.
However there was another reason why Lennoch chose the contents of the grimoire which had low utility compared to its popularity as payment for settlement.
‘Among the game’s grimoires that I remember this is the only one that has both time and space themes.’
What Lennok has to worry about is not just space manipulation magic.
A unique magic of the time system that may be able to solve Lennok’s fundamental problem.
I was clearly aware that this could be another opportunity to try my hand at that concept.
You might have been able to ask the doctor for a time-system unique grimoire but it would be useless since you haven’t yet figured out the concept of time.
Rather it is reasonable to pick a grimoire that contains both the themes of space and time delve into the concept of space to the end and then lay the foundation to move on to the concept of time.
If it was a grimoire that was famous in WORLD 1.0 then it was definitely a grimoire that was famous in the first world that existed in reality.
Lennok thought that such information must have existed as a cause and effect among the information about the old world collected by Pandemonium.
The doctor looked down at Lennok with a strange look and then turned his head.
“Let’s continue with the settlement. “If you wish please come forward.”
At those words Vernon who had not yet participated in the settlement clinked his bottle and turned his head.
“Victor what can I bring? “Time will soon come to an end.”
“….”
“If you worry too much it will be over soon. “If I waste time and my share disappears then what’s the use of being a filter and a brat?”
“The names and personal details of famous monks in the first world.”
Lennok said in response to Vernon’s words.
Lennok’s eyes glowed coldly as he adjusted his mask.
“Or ask the doctor for anecdotes related to it.”
Originally I wanted to focus on the Demon Musketeer side but it would be easy for the Demon Musketeer theme to be overly specific.
If you could get your hands on something like this with an 8-level adjustment this is information you could probably request with a 4-level adjustment that is half of that.
Now that we had obtained the items needed to study hierarchy and magic it was time to find out the secrets left to Lennok himself.
Behind Vernon who was walking in front of the statue while tilting his head Sabrina gestured toward the outside of the theater.

“Is it okay for me to come out to a place like this?”
“doesn’t care. “What are you worried about?”
Secluded parking lot behind the back entrance of the theater.
Sabrina who was waiting in the corner in the cold night air laughed.
“Anyway the doctor can’t leave until the settlement is over.”
“Isn’t that simply due to unwritten rules or organizational rules?”
“Of course it’s a type of Geass.”
Sabrina nodded calmly.
“In the first place the power of that statue itself was created by borrowing the power of gold magic.”
“….”
“I added a bit of my magic spell and a clown’s illusion but it’s actually a masterpiece created by the doctor.”
Sabrina giggled and laughed.
“To put an old world causal exchange system into an object weighing less than a few tens of tons… The doctor is a monster after all. “It’s also a very smart and strange monster.”
“I see….”
Lennok agreed to some extent with what she said.
In fact even though Lennok directly injected magical energy into the statue and activated the system he had no idea of the principle or operation method.
Perhaps the doctor created a completely new system or rule purely to independently manage the laws of the old world.
Sabrina seemed to have some idea about that fact.
“Anyway this is what I want to say. “If you have any useful information I’d like to exchange it.”
Sabrina said.
“If you came here on the recommendation of a famous person and went all the way to the well of handbooks you must have seen and heard quite a bit.”
“….”
“As I said before we need information that is both highly important and volatile.”
“Is it because there is an urgent need to use it somewhere else?”
Sabrina nodded at Lennok’s words.
“okay. Like you said Amrita is dead and the Apostle Art is unusable for the time being… I just like that feeling. “If you know anything please tell me.”
“What is the price?”
“I’ll tell you the information I know first here. “If you feel like you’ve exceeded the standard how about exchanging it there?”
Lennok laughed inadvertently at her words.
This was because the conditions were extremely favorable to Lennok considering that they were only talking about exchanging information.
“You seem to be in quite a hurry.”
“I have an important meeting scheduled. “Just information about Amrita is not enough.”
“….”
“The reason I’m telling you this first is because I heard information about Amrita’s death from you first. Let’s take that into account and make a deal.”
Lennok nodded.
“Just think about it first.”
“…good. “There is a huge city nearby so let’s start with information about that first.”
Before I could react Sabrina spoke.
“PMC Deadrise known as the Three Heads of the Balkan Shadows. Among them the headquarters that advanced to the Central Front will soon return to the Balkans.”
“….”
“The front line has fallen into a lull due to the truce between the Order Federation and the Church. “I will probably try to return to the front lines after taking a break of about half a year.”
In the shadows of the huge city of Balkan a very large organization cartel called the Three Heads Eight Roaring Citadel and Deadrise.
Does this mean that the private military company which has been only rumored and without any action is finally returning to the megacity?
I knew that their main force was operating outside the city but I had no idea that they had advanced all the way to the central front.
Did he grow his power in the shadows of the city and then expand his business to the central front with that power?
I thought there was strangely little news about them but I never thought that was the reason.
However Lennok changed his mask without making a show of it.
“Continue.”
“Is this still not enough? “Then what about the information that Ascendant Jinwa created a new apostle?”
Sabrina continued looking at Lennok who was silent.
“There were rumors that they were trying to imitate the end of the ocean but it seems like the symptoms are getting worse. “It’s a serious problem for necromancers like us.”
“….”
“Would you like to tell me more about the Central Front? The Torburn Tower is withdrawing from the front lines. “There is a fierce battle of nerves with the Order Federation regarding related matters.”
Sabrina began to take notice of Lennok.
“I brought out the most up-to-date information but…is it still not enough?”
“…No let’s just leave it like this for now.”
It is also difficult to try to exploit Sabrina too much and cause unnecessary suspicion.
“We started with a theme related to big cities so I’ll do that too.”
Lennok who naturally turned the topic back to the great city he knew best opened his mouth.
“The Balkan City Council is preparing a new project to follow the Black Consumer project.”
“…!!”
“It has already been put into concrete form after some trial and error.”
“Is this information clear?”
“This is a story I heard directly from a city council official.”
This is not wrong as it is a story I heard directly from none other than Madrich Onion himself.
“Some of the development personnel who participated in the Black Consumer project at the time were involved and people from the military city were also involved.”
“Wait a minute… this is too sensitive.”
Sabrina said with a stiff expression.
“no. Sorry but I can’t use this information. “There could be war between cities.”
Lennok laughed coldly.
“Should I take that into consideration and say something?”
“….”
Sabrina thought for a while and shook her head.
“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it. Instead I’ll give you some more information here so let’s talk about something else.”
Sabrina then talked about the Central Front the Qing eyes and the civil war that took place in the West Continent Republic.
Lennok listened quietly to the story and then opened his mouth again.
“The cult appears to have found a new way to reach ascension. From the rumors I heard it looks like clinical trials have already been completed.”
“Ugh….”
Sabrina’s expression was slightly tired.
“How can you do something like this… What are you doing outside of Pandemonium?”
When Lennok did not respond Sabrina quietly distanced herself slightly from him.
Her face was filled with faint fear.
“…There was a reason why I participated in the Ascendant’s operation. “You are actually a person of very high status right?”
“….”
“It’s just information that can never be known unless certain conditions are met. No way the leader or the person himself….”
Lennok shook his head at the sight of Sabrina who was beginning to make absurd illusions.
Although she appropriately dramatized the facts that Lennok knew she thought the risk level was too high.
However both of the pieces of information just mentioned were pieces of information that would not be burdensome to Lennok even if they were leaked out.
The City Council’s new project The Order’s New Ascension.
The more actively both are known and checked by external forces the more likely it is that the situation will turn in Lennok’s favor.
That’s why Lennok was able to bring up this story without pressure even though he knew that others were eavesdropping on this conversation.
Thinking so Lennok turned his gaze toward the alley behind Sabrina.
“This necromancer says so what does he think?”
“…The leader and the King are not the type to do such troublesome things.”
Soryu who appeared from the alley with a cold expression spoke with an expressionless face.
“If there’s something you want to do to avoid attention there’s no need to put on a mask. “It’s just a pure illusion.”
“Soryu…!!”
Sabrina gritted her teeth and turned her back.
“Were you all listening you rat!!”
“You’re saying something strange.”
Soryu answered without raising an eyebrow.
“Arbitrarily taking necessary information is a rational action. “There would be no reason to listen to criticism.”
“What nonsense? We came out separately because we had something to talk about!! No more than that I used the magic trick so how did you sneak in?!”
“Are you talking about this?”
Damn it…!!
The unknown array of letters in Soryu’s hand is frozen solid.
Sabrina frothed at the mouth in embarrassment when she saw that.
“How could you…!!”
“If you materialize magical power and leave it behind the effect is powerful but it also makes it easier to be interfered with.”
Soryu who broke the frozen shape of the letter with one hand walked forward and spoke.
“You will have to be careful when dealing with superhumans who understand the concept of attribute change.”
“this…!!”
Soryu passed by Sabrina who was about to run wild and stood in front of Lennok with a calm gaze.
Two superhumans face each other with their backs to the cool night air.
Soryu who was staring at Lennok’s mask said.
“When I met him in Kaiushu he didn’t look like he was going to participate in the well operation.”
“….”
“If it was decided after leaving the city it’s no wonder Hilea didn’t know about it. “That’s not what’s important.”
Did he already have an idea of how Lennok came to participate in the jungle operation?
Soryu asked dismissing what had happened in just a few words.
“Was the leader there?”
“…If you’ve heard about what happened in the jungle you would know.”
Lennok tilted his head slightly.
“The clown took the lead and I only helped. “I’ve never seen the leader.”
“Agneta said that you took on the most important role in the end and made it a success.”
Soryu responded coldly.
“I’m asking whether there was any help or arrangement from the director during that process.”
Only then did Lenok realize that what Soryu was talking about was not the existence of the leader himself but the stake itself that had been driven into Gyebaek’s body at that time.
The last Geass sleeping in Gyebaek’s body.
The stake that activated the command to challenge ascension once again. An item that the leader himself made and handed over.
Soryu guessed that there must have been an arrangement made by the leader at the end of the jungle operation and was asking about the inside story.
“I know what you’re talking about.”
Lennok nodded.
“But I don’t think there’s any reason to tell you.”
“….”
The surrounding air suddenly becomes cold.
Even though Soryu himself did not raise his magical power the air in the area turned cold with only a faint murderous intent.
This is proof that Soryu is a person with integrated abilities who skillfully handles the ice attribute.
While Sabrina who was watching from the side frowned and stepped away Lennok spoke in a voice mixed with laughter.
“Even if it wasn’t me you could have asked the clown or Freya but the reason you didn’t do that is probably because there was something you wanted to hear from my mouth.”
“Oh….”
Sabrina who inadvertently expressed her admiration closed her mouth and Soryu’s gaze turned cold.
“Do I really need to tell that to the guy who was eavesdropping on us just a moment ago?”
“What do you want?”
“The skull staff that was intended to be used against Gap-seon in Kaiushu. Or the binding law submitted for this settlement.”
“….”
Lennok laughed as he looked at Soryu who was silent.
“Prince of Kabahim. From what I heard you have a lot of valuable artifacts? “If you come up with something like that I’ll think about it.”
The request is too much for just hearing about the happenings in the jungle.
However it is suitable for someone who arbitrarily eavesdrops on the conversation and demands information about the stakes without clearly revealing his intentions.
If you set conditions this strong the other person is bound to react in some way.
Lennok was planning to use this to guess why Soryu wanted information from the leader.
Until Soryu who was quietly listening to the words immediately nodded.
“good night.”
“…what?”
“I didn’t know you were interested in the legacy of the Kabahim Dynasty.”
Soryu said activating the pattern engraved on his wrist by touching it.
“We’ll open the warehouse so pick what you want. “We’ll talk later.”
“No wait a minute. Are you really giving it to me?”
Sabrina widened her eyes and raised her hand.
“No if you’re going to come out like that you have to give me financial compensation even if I’m worse than Victor!! “The information you just talked about has some value-”
“I will do that. “Wait your turn.”
“Damn I knew that too… What!!”
“….”
Could it be that this person with ice powers standing in front of me is someone who doesn’t know how to answer no?
When I think about it even when we met in Kaiushu I was planning to go straight to Balkan to confirm Lennok’s identity.
I just didn’t know if his way of thinking was different from that of the criminal.
At that moment Lennok gazed at Soryu’s fingertips with a slightly bewildered expression feeling that somehow his impression of this cold prince had completely changed.
Keying…!!
A very faint sound like the plucking of thread rang in my ears.
“…!!”
At the same time the presence of Sabrina and Soryu who were talking to each other stood up sharply for a split second and quickly returned to normal.
A feeling of discomfort so faint and subtle that anyone other than Lennok who was watching closely could not even notice it.
However Soryu soon pretended that nothing had happened and took out a dagger from between his sleeves.
A dagger as black and sharp as ink. The pitch-black energy flowing from the blade is impressive.
Without hesitation Soryu held it backwards and held out the handle towards Lennok.
“Kaiushu’s work. “You probably still remember right?”
“….”
Soryu’s words are extremely meaningful. But as he said Lennok still remembered that dagger.
The dagger used by Soryu to stab and subdue Janicus Barbaria in Kaiushu.
What does it mean to say that you were asked to choose a treasure earlier but then suddenly choose a dagger and hand it to you?
There is someone who needs to be stabbed.
“I see. Do you prefer it this way?”
Lennok nodded put the dagger in his hand and swung it at Sabrina.
Wedge!!
“Wait what…!!”
Activating space transfer right in front of Sabrina who quickly hardens her expression and retreats.
The dagger that was transferred to the back of her head stuck in the empty air and stopped there.
[Oops…!!]
At that moment a strange feeling appears as if the space is breaking apart and the appearance of a person falling backwards.
A dagger is stuck in front of the thick helmeted face radiating pitch-black energy.
Soryu appeared behind the stumbling opponent and kicked him in the back without hesitation.
Kwaaaang!!
The fallen opponent falls into a corner of the parking lot and lets out a loud roar.
Soryu shook his hands with an expressionless face and Sabrina stood up with a slightly pale complexion.
“If you have to at least say something in advance!!”
“Where is the time for that?”
Lennok responded harshly and looked away.
“We are already surrounded. “Your skills are considerable.”
Above the streetlight bent to one side at the end of the parking lot. Below the shadow of the car split in half.
Meanwhile people wearing colorful visors appear one by one and quietly look at this place.
Wearing a black suit that covers the entire body colorful eye lights are streaming through the visor.
He exudes a level of power and intimidation that is completely different from the person Lennok killed just moments ago.
Dozens of superhumans just quietly looked down at them without saying a word.
“We must not leave here until the settlement is completed.”
Soryu said picking up the dagger that had fallen on the floor.
“Let’s inform the doctor first and deal with it.”
“Contact Sabrina.”
“Why don’t you carry a communicator or something?”
The moment when Sabrina grumbled and took out the mechanical device from her arms.
[There will be no need for that Pandemonium.]
The superhuman wearing a green visor standing on the far right spoke.
[All preparations have already been completed.]
“what?”
At that moment Sabrina’s mouth opened slightly as she turned her gaze to an unknown roar coming from overhead.
Kugugu…!!
A black meteorite the size of a house was falling on the roof of the huge theater where the three people were standing with their backs to them.
