    The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 529

    Second Paper (4)

    [No way!! This is a frame-up. I will tell you when I meet the other lawmakers. This cannot happen!!!]

    Haider Barcel’s voice fades as he struggles to get up from his chair and is dragged away.

    John Mayer looked at the abomination with an expressionless face and sat down on the chair where Haider was sitting.

    He sighed heavily leaned back in his chair and spoke in a heavy voice.

    [I will be stuck in the basement of the Board of Audit and Inspection for about 15 days. With this the disruptor has disappeared.]

    “Thank you Representative Meyer for your cooperation.”

    Mayer waved his hand in response to Dean Sciolus’ polite greeting.

    [It just suited the scenario appropriately. Isn’t it to your credit that you laid all the boards?]

    “….”

    [So where is the person who gave the source to the Board of Audit and Inspection?]

    As soon as he finished speaking the back door of the lab burst open.

    “It looks like the play with that incompetent old man is finally over.”

    The sight of Bayla and Kasia walking in shaking their heads.

    They are both the director of the Carlyle Institute and a deputy researcher but they are also acting as temporary professors at Labatenon University.

    Lennok and the Dean asked them to report internal corruption in the Technology Management Bureau to the Board of Audit and Inspection.

    They succeeded in setting aside Haider Barcel and creating a space for dialogue with John Mayer.

    “Vayla. “Do you have to say it like that before you can use it?”

    The dean stroked his beard and laughed heartily.

    “Half of the people gathered here are old people but the old people listening are embarrassed. Hahaha!!!”

    He said it as if it were a pleasant joke but no one laughed at it.

    The dean cleared his throat and looked away with a slightly embarrassed expression.

    He started caressing the goat-like spirit that was rolling around at his feet and quickly changed the subject.

    “Anyway let’s get to the point. “The fact that the Board of Audit and Inspection kicked out the Technology Management Bureau must mean that they are carefully considering the aftermath of this incident.”

    [….]

    “Comprehensive opening of derived technologies and application fields resulting from Researcher Bylon’s thesis.”

    The dean’s eyes shone sharply.

    “Can we assume that the Central Council has reached some conclusion on this?”

    It is not for nothing that Lennok and the dean have not responded to any reporting or interviews until now.

    ‘The case is very different from the first paper. The dean must have known that.’

    Lennok’s first paper came close to significantly improving the efficiency of the energy business.

    Therefore the city government also actively supported commercialization but in the case of the second paper the story was completely different.

    Over the Balkan metropolis. An environment where flight was impossible due to the influence of an unknown magnetic storm flowing throughout the area.

    This is because the second thesis was a technology that was equivalent to opening a new path in the sky of that huge city.

    Mayer who had been silent with a thoughtful expression opened his mouth.

    [Even if it had not been Commander Carrasco’s mistake Assistant Professor Bylan’s presentation would have been released to the public normally.]

    “Why?”

    [The presenters who were judged to be unrelated to the Air Force theme were uniformly sent out to make the expo a success. Even if it had not been for his intervention the situation would not have been different.]

    “….”

    [Assistant Professor Bylon’s achievements and the economic additional effects derived from them are not problems that can be solved by simply controlling or monopolizing them.]

    “That means….”

    [In this case no specific organization or individual will be held responsible for Researcher Bylon’s paper presentation. I will answer that one thing clearly.]

    “That’s very fortunate.”

    The dean’s attitude seemed not at all surprised. Mayer’s eyes shone sharply as he saw the dean’s expression.

    [Of course Dean you wouldn’t have known that fact. You probably knew that opinions were divided even within Congress regarding the Air Force project right?]

    “….”

    [Although it has not been officially announced to the public Researcher Bylan’s thesis is already being cross-validated in academia. It’s not all over yet but it seems like the conclusion has been reached that at least anti-gravity technology is sufficiently commercializable.]

    Mayer glanced back at Lennok and said.

    [Opinions were gathered as it was proven to be incomparably more effective than the technology used in the Air Force fleet.]

    “It seems like a conclusion has been reached.”

    [It is impossible to monopolize anti-gravity technology when so much information has been released. Soon we will officially register your paper in academic societies and recruit companies for research and development projects.]

    As Mayer said that he looked at Lennok with a look of faint greed.

    [At the same time you will receive enormous honors as the best performing presenter of the fair.]

    “…Is that so?”

    In fact one word that confirms the achievement of Lennok’s goal at this exhibition.

    At the same time that Mayer’s words which were close to a definite answer fell out the complexions of the others standing in the laboratory also brightened.

    How high will the status of Labatenon University rise through this incident and how much will its research achievements and reserve support funds be?

    And they also knew the extent of the new powers and privileges that would come to them as faculty members at the university.

    Of course most of that achievement was solely Evan Bylan’s but Lennok didn’t really care about that right away.

    “….”

    Instead he just smiled bitterly and accepted the old man’s blatant gaze as if he was going to eat Evan.

    It was a feeling that was extremely familiar to Lennok who had met him several times under the name of Van.

    It is that of an ambitious person mixed with blatant greed and desire for talent.

    “I am grateful to the Central Council for making this difficult decision.”

    The dean slightly bowed his head in a serious tone.

    In effect it was the same as saying that the Congress would give up its monopoly on anti-gravity technology.

    Of course even if it is not an arbitrary decision by the Central Council it is a remarkable enough act to quickly acknowledge the fact and change direction.

    But Mayer smiled as if he didn’t care at all about the dean’s words.

    [This is a situation where not only the Congress but also government agencies such as the Technology Management Agency Advisory Committee and the Korean Intellectual Property Office are raising their eyebrows. The meaning of anti-gravity technology is too heavy for one specific organization or force to monopolize it. Wouldn’t you have already known the truth?]

    Neither the Dean nor Lennoch responded to those words.

    [We will be officially contacting Labatenon University soon so prepare related administrative procedures in advance.]

    Mayer said that and slowly stood up from Haider’s seat leaning on his cane.

    He stood upright with the support of the surrounding bodyguards and smiled at Lennok before turning off the hologram.

    [Researcher Evan Bylan. We will see again at the Central Council Technology Advisory Committee later.]

    Pot!!

    A hologram shape that disappears along with those words.

    Cassia who was standing behind her let out a light sigh as if the tension had finally eased.

    “Phew… The members of the Board of Audit and Inspection definitely have a different momentum.”

    “He is a politician who is evaluated as the most competent in the House of Representatives.”

    Bayla answered in a harsh tone crossing her arms.

    “His personal reputation and approval rating are considerable so some say he will soon enter the Senate despite his advanced age.”

    “….”

    “Maybe the oldest member will hold the title of politician who entered the Senate in the shortest period of time.”

    “There are rumors that even accepting the position of Auditor General was done to shorten the deadline to enter the Senate… It must be a shame.”

    If even Sciolus said so it would mean that John Mayer’s contribution within the Central Council was truly significant.

    It’s amazing what kind of tricks he can pull off to continue to attract attention both inside and outside of the National Assembly.

    Wasn’t the ambition to start from the back alleys of the city and climb to the top of the Balkans a lie?

    But Lennok also succeeded in getting closer to the city council in a different way.

    All that’s left is to try and struggle to get what you want in your own way.

    “Anyway welcome to officially join the Technical Advisory Committee Assistant Professor Evan.”

    The Dean grinned and patted Lennok on the shoulder.

    “Qualification for entry into the Technical Advisory Committee given to the top prize winner at the Balkan Magic Engineering Fair. “Now finally we have achieved our intended goal.”

    “It is thanks to the dean’s generous support.”

    “Don’t say things you don’t mean hahaha!”

    Despite his words the dean let out a hearty laugh leaning back on his lab chair and stroking his beard in satisfaction.

    “It is true that we have properly oiled it for this exhibition but it is thanks to your abilities that made all of this possible.”

    It’s not wrong.

    In the end all the dean did was lay the board and prepare a place for Lennok to go to the fair.

    It was all Lennok’s work that changed the situation by presenting papers and announcing new theories and technologies.

    However it would be difficult to say that the dean did not help in smoothly handling the tug-of-war between the city council and government agencies during the process.

    The matter was resolved smoothly because the dean had contacts in various research institutes including government agencies and in the Mateap academic world.

    However rather than touting his own achievements the dean seemed to want to talk about what would happen in the future.

    “With this there will be no more people to nag about Labatenon University’s research results for the time being. All we have to do is finish the remaining procedures neatly.”

    “You mean the remaining procedures?”

    “Of course we’re talking about the new degree that will be awarded to you.”

    The dean answered as if asking what he was asking now.

    “What you have done so far is more than enough to meet the qualifications. “If I limit myself to the energy system it wouldn’t be strange if I were awarded a doctorate right now.”

    It’s a new graduation ceremony. Although this was the first time he had heard this from the Dean Lennok was not surprised.

    Until now I have been simply buried as a researcher at Aris so there has been no need to record specific personal information.

    It was a natural fact that various nameplates were needed to directly enter the Central Council’s Technical Advisory Committee.

    “Even if you take the integrated course procedurally you will need to submit a separate thesis but your performance is enough to justify it so you can prepare leisurely.”

    “All right.”

    The dean laughed and muttered.

    “Originally this should have been handled not by me but by Professor Richellin who is in charge of you but I can’t contact you right away so I’m sorry…”

    “…”

    Bayla also added her words with a somewhat worried expression.

    “At the beginning of the sabbatical year we could still contact each other occasionally but now the communication connection is not working well. “What kind of research is being conducted at the Magic Tower?”

    “I will still come back. “I’m not the type of person to abandon responsibility without saying a word.”

    Lennok listened to their anxious conversation and took out a small bookmark from his pocket.

    A gift from Aris who had stopped by the city for a while out of concern for his health.

    The fact that this object created with Aris’s magic is intact probably means that she has work left to do.

    Lennok also had a lot of work to do so just knowing that was enough for now.

    “Well rest assured there will be no lack of support or help in handling this matter.”

    As the dean said that he immediately lifted up his cell phone.

    Beep beep beep!!

    Messages and call lists were accumulating in real time inside the screen moving at a fast speed as if scrolling.

    The dean chuckled as he looked at the slightly shocked expressions of Cassia and Bayla.

    “Since then we have literally hundreds of friends who are anxious to help us.”

    * * *

    After spending a few days as Evan Bylan Lennok was back in the lab again.

    Since the handling of external matters has been entrusted to the dean he will likely be in charge of handling requests for cooperation from the media and experts for the time being.

    It will inevitably take some time for the anti-gravity technology introduced in the second paper to be commercialized in earnest.

    In the meantime Lennoc planned to take care of some unfinished personal research and work.

    Come on!!

    The laboratory ceiling opens and mechanical shelves come down to list the cases where all kinds of drugs and catalysts are stored.

    A holographic window appeared and began to visually display the efficacy and combination method of the medicine and catalyst.

    Automatically communicate through gesture recognition by simply placing your hand in the air.

    In an instant catalysts and ingredients needed for alchemy came out and lined up all over the spacious workbench.

    Auxiliary equipment sprouting up from all over the place delicately dispensed the correct amount like human hands and placed it in the center of the workbench.

    Scream!!

    All kinds of paints and catalysts are being ground in real time creating a huge alchemy formation.

    It is implemented like a 3D printer by sequentially substituting patterns entered into the equipment without the need for Lennok to draw a legal line.

    All that is needed is to supply Lennok’s magic power to the equipment and take care not to lose power.

    As soon as the Yeonseongjin was completed on the workbench Lennok immediately took out the artifact from his pocket.

    “Let’s get started.”

    thud!

    A staff with a rainbow-colored jewel and a pair of wings is placed on top of Yeonseongjin.

    [Confirmation of overbarrel artifact insertion. Specification analysis through horsepower flow synchronization.]

    [Confirmation of the Holy Spirit-type self-augmentation technique and the special-type space transfer technique.]

    [Unable to interpret specific operating principle. It is understood to be a high-level technique of at least saint rank or higher.]

    The research equipment that Lennok purchased is not something that allows things that Lennok cannot do.

    Extracting the spell is just the result of Lennok’s ability to manipulate magical power which includes the Yeonseongjin created by him and his heightened understanding of the concept of space.

    The role of the equipment installed in the new laboratory is to closely observe analyze and record the process and allow Dabi to manage it directly.

    Equipment that observes the changes and flows of Yeonseongjin assists the process in real time quantifies it and records the status.

    [The synchronization of both the material world and the soft world is confirmed through the pattern of Yeonseongjin. Code name ‘Archangel’s Compassion’. The first attempt at technique extraction begins.]

    Woooo!!

    The Yeonseongjin surrounding the Archangel’s compassion wriggled as if they were alive and soon began to gently glow wrapping around the artifact.

    The radiance revealed through Yeonseongjin surrounded the artifact and disappeared as if melting then dripped down the rainbow-colored gem in liquid form.

    A truly bizarre phenomenon as if an artifact had been boiled and steeped like medicine.

    Lennok looked at the scene and asked Dabi.

    “How long do you think it will take?”

    [It takes more than 90 hours until it can be visually quantified. Since the technique is copied and extracted into liquid form without affecting the overall function of the artifact if you do not proceed slowly the circuit will burn out.]

    In the process of extracting the technique the function built into the Archangel’s compassion is not completely taken away.

    To be precise it is a replica that copies the magic mechanism that operates within the Archangel’s compassion and makes it possible to materialize it in other forms as well.

    Since the work must be done without damaging the artifact itself it is inevitable that a lot of time will be consumed.

    The workbench is isolated with a solid glass plate and a holographic timer displays the remaining time.

    Lennok who was looking at the liquid slowly falling into the glass bottle nodded.

    “It means that even if you make adjustments and put a lot of effort into it you will have to repeat trial and error to know whether it is successful or not.”

    [You can just use the artifact but the master says he will try to extract the magic so there is nothing you can do.]

    “I just don’t want to depend on whether or not there are artifacts. And if this kind of research on relics from the old world is successful it will be linked to magical engraving in the future-”

    Beep beep!

    Lennok stopped moving at the sound of an alarm coming from behind him.

    “…It’s time.”

    Since the experiment on extracting the spatial transfer technique requires time there is no need to do anything for the time being.

    Lennok who had set up a barrier to properly protect the extraction process immediately put on his coat picked up his cane and left the mansion.

    Lennok’s face naturally turned into half as he walked through the center of the downtown area.

    Like a huge procession I walked quietly among the people walking in a specific direction and before I knew it I had arrived at my destination.

    [Balkan Aerospace Defense Industry Exhibition]

    An exhibition created to introduce various aircraft and floating air transportation.

    Exhibitions on this theme which have never been featured in major cities have recently been rapidly increasing in number.

    All citizens living in the Balkans knew the reason.

    A new anti-gravity technology that will come in the future through an announcement made at the Magic Engineering Expo.

    That expectation was being reflected through the capital power of the powerful megacity.

    Rather than the aircraft previously used in large cities countless aircraft actually flying in the sky from all over the continent are on display in the huge stadium.

    Wing boats in floating island colonies snowmobiles in the North Continent as well as single-seater aircraft such as hover bikes used on the central front.

    Even transportation means that can transport multiple objects and people at once such as multi-seater tactical bombers and reverse flow control shuttles.

    Still not all skies on the continent are open to humans.

    There are quite a few areas where flight is impossible due to certain environmental conditions such as the magnetic storm hovering over the Balkans.

    However despite this there were aircraft used in areas where flight was possible and megacities were importing all such aircraft through their unique and powerful capital and displaying them to citizens.

    This means that the existence of air transportation strongly attracted the attention of people living in this city.

    “Until the world comes to an end….”

    A soft voice rang out from behind Lennok who was looking at a huge rocket resembling a space shuttle.

    “It is said that countries without land also existed.”

    “….”

    “It is said that there was a wandering nation that wandered the expanse of the world with an aircraft that flew in the sky forever as its homeland.”

    A long-haired young man took a step forward and stood next to Lennok.

    “It’s a story about records and memories that no longer exist.”

    “Are you familiar with the three cycles?”

    “That can’t be possible.”

    Antares answered.

    “Instead of looking back at the past we’re just obsessed with a future that hasn’t even arrived.”

    Lennok laughed at those words.

    “You’re saying things you don’t mean.”

    A foresight gained in exchange for observing one’s own outcome.

    Antares himself would know best how powerful useful and lethal that power is.

    However despite Lennok’s cold response Antares quietly shook his head.

    “No it’s really just a mediocre talent. “Compared to everything you’ve done so far.”

    “….”

    There was silence.

    Because they both knew that it wasn’t just a story about what they accomplished as a class.

    A vast exhibition hall crowded with thousands of citizens. Antares turned his back on those people and looked at Lennog blankly.

    “I’d like to continue the story I couldn’t finish at Jenny’s bar is that okay?”

    Antares tilted his head slightly as he said that.

    “It’s about Evan Bylon.”

    The name that is brought up for the first time in front of the class.

    But instead of being embarrassed by those words Lennok smiled quietly and raised his head.

    He knew that all directions of Antares’ actions and advice so far pointed to only one truth.

    “…I knew it as expected.”
