After the terrorist attack at Labatenon University of Magic caused by the shamans of the Ghost God Palace

The media made headlines for several days about the progress and aftermath of the incident.

[It has been three days since the terrorist incident targeting students at Labatenon University of Magic was officially concluded.]

[Criticism is pouring in from all walks of life over the fact that a terrorist attack was carried out against an educational institution directly under the city government…]

[There are a significant number of public officials directly or indirectly involved in this situation so trouble is expected in the Central Council.]

[It is presumed that some of the senators will not be able to avoid responsibility as they made things up…]

Lennok looked at the announcers who were continuously reporting related news and then glanced to the side.

“When I think about it the last time we met was when news like this was pouring out.”

“….”

“When quarantine measures in closed areas were lifted and related news was released to the public. “The dean gave me a warning.”

A sunny university ward. Among them a top-class private room that caters to VIPs.

The dean who was lying covered in a white blanket with his entire body bandaged slowly opened his eyes at Lennok’s words.

He smiled bitterly without even looking up at Lennok properly.

“Maybe they were already anticipating catastrophe from then on…”

“….”

“As a result when things turned out this way the city council members involved were no longer able to avoid responsibility. “It was a plan that was destined to fail from the beginning.”

The dean’s deeply subdued voice.

Just as Lennoc was about to respond to the dean’s words other news came out from the screen on the wall of the hospital room.

[The debate over the responsibility of Labatenon’s dean Syolus Garteanon is also active.]

[Although he is currently in critical condition it is assumed that he will never be able to evade responsibility for putting students in danger…]

[The academic community expressed their opinions cautiously saying that he may have to resign from his position as dean due to this incident.]

Lennok who had been listening to the news with his back turned nodded.

“Is it true?”

“Maybe it will happen even if it’s not my doctor.”

The dean nodded.

“The incident has become too big to be covered up by just one or two people taking off their clothes.”

“….”

Apart from the fact that the Dean himself did not cooperate with the shamans of the Ghost God Palace the fact that the university’s defenses and security were breached is fatal.

There is evidence that he was injured while fighting against shamans so even if he avoids punishment it would be impossible to maintain his position as dean.

“Don’t worry about the technical advisory committee matter. Even without me your admission is already confirmed based on your performance alone.”

The Dean spoke first as if he knew what Lennok was thinking.

“Rather the problem is your agenda regarding your integrated master’s and doctoral thesis and your inauguration as a professor. “The successor who takes office after me will have to take good care of his convenience…”

“I guess you don’t have to worry about that.”

Jump up!!

At the same time as he said that the hospital room door opened and an old man with white hair walked in.

A sharp and sensitive impression. An elderly man who even looks quite old.

However the eyes of the old man holding a cane and wearing a coat are strange and unbecoming of his age.

The dean who recognized the old man’s face muttered in slight surprise.

“Congressman Meyer….”

John Mayer an elderly man entered the House of Representatives of the National Assembly at the age of the oldest and became a member of the Board of Audit and Inspection.

This ambitious man who had become acquainted with Lennok in various positions suddenly appeared in the hospital room of the university where the dean resided.

“The Central Council’s Board of Audit and Inspection took charge of handling this situation.”

Mayer stood next to Lennok looked down at the dean’s face without even sitting down and spoke quietly.

“Since it is estimated that there are more than five lawmakers involved in this incident regardless of whether it is in the Senate or House of Representatives this assemblyman will carefully review and determine who is responsible for this incident and raise it to the top.”

He looked sternly at Lennok and then at the Dean then nodded.

“As you guessed it would be difficult for a dean who is familiar with Hyman Kielberg to avoid responsibility for this matter.”

“….”

Looking at the silent Dean Mayer spoke again.

“But on the other hand it means that our Board of Audit and Inspection can have some influence in choosing your successor.”

“that…!”

“I also deeply sympathize with the achievements and talents of Assistant Professor Evan Bylan.”

Mayer said casting a gaze at Lennok that was completely different from the cold gaze he had been looking at at the Dean.

A greedy gaze that goes beyond showing favor to talented people and wants to be in the same boat.

“As a candidate to succeed you as dean I will try my best to recommend someone with the same thoughts as me.”

“…thank you.”

Lennok said that and bowed his head out of courtesy but he wasn’t actually that surprised.

This is because I was confident that Mayer would not have brought a proposal that would be detrimental to Lennok when he appeared in person.

If the situation had gone badly for Evan there was no way Mayer would have bothered to show himself in person.

Although he came with a compromise plan that could actually be helpful to Lennok he was certain that he was in a position to show off it so he came and told him in person.

“Oh and Garteanon it was decided to keep your position on the technical advisory committee after discussion so please take note.”

Mayer who was turning around after finishing his message spoke as if he had remembered it too late.

“Originally this position should have been canceled upon your resignation from the position of dean but other members of the committee strongly opposed your dismissal.”

“The other members…?”

The dean muttered quietly looking slightly surprised.

“Surprisingly bad. “They are not compassionate enough to do such a thing…”

“Isn’t it because you consider the partnership between you and Evan Bylan so important?”

Mayer responded with a sullen expression while tapping his cane.

“Professor Bylon hasn’t even joined the advisory committee yet but this seems like a sign that he doesn’t want to ruin our relationship with him. “For me.”

“….”

Seeing the dean lost in thought Mayer said no more and turned his back without delay.

Lennok naturally followed him out of the hospital room and briefly said hello to Mayer who came out into the hallway.

“Thank you for your concern.”

“Don’t worry there won’t be any sparks flying towards you.”

Mayer smiled kindly and casually tapped Lennok on the shoulder.

Mayer’s gaze as if he was looking at a treasure trove was indeed blatant but it was also more believable.

“Moreover you said you evacuated the students first and stayed until the end to sort out the situation right? That’s enough. “The media won’t touch you either.”

Mayer who received Lennok’s greeting and was about to leave the university ward with his bodyguards stopped as if he remembered something.

“Oh now that I think about it there’s something I wanted to tell you in advance.”

“Please tell me.”

“Due to this incident some of the central council members will take off their clothes. Among them there are two or three members who have been serving in the Senate for a long time. “It means that there will be a vacancy in the Senate for the first time in a long time.”

“….”

“Do you understand what this means?”

Only then did Lennok who realized the meaning of Mayer’s words look at him with a slightly surprised expression.

What Meyer is telling Lennok now is not simply conveying the fact that there is a vacuum in the Senate.

It was not difficult for Lennok to guess what it meant that Mayer who was sitting in the House of Representatives knew about the vacant seat.

“I hope to see you again next time in a better location.”

Lennok slightly bowed his head and added.

“Senator Meyer.”

“As expected all smart wizards are quick-witted and clever.”

Mayer nodded and smiled in satisfaction.

“Among the very talented wizards I know there is one man who is similar to you in terms of talent.”

“….”

“It would be nice if I could introduce that friend to you next time.”

Even though he didn’t listen to the end Lennok smiled bitterly because he felt like he somehow knew who the wizard was.

* * *

In the basement lab of Lennok’s mansion.

One side of the lab where all kinds of artifacts and papers and books are usually piled up has been completely cleared away and an unknown drinking method is being drawn on the floor.

Dabi is seen crouching in the middle of a drinking party that emits a bright blue glow occasionally tilting his head.

Every time the five-pronged tail swayed gently the brilliance of magical power shone brightly through its pure white fur.

Paaaaa!!

[Umm….]

“Is this not enough?”

[I don’t think there is a big feeling…?]

“I see.”

Lennok nodded and withdrew the magic power he had laid down with a single wave of his hand.

Phew!!

Dabi walked out of the dimly lit drinking party and quickly jumped on Lennok’s shoulder.

Lennok quietly tilted his head as he looked at the form of the Beopjin lying beneath his feet.

“Well I didn’t think it would turn out as well as I expected but… there is no way to use a decent number of artifacts as materials.”

A spirit growth promotion ritual used by the shamans of the Ghost God Palace to grow their spirits.

Dabi who devoured the arrangement prepared by Hyman Kilberg for the Creation Spirit succeeded in awakening the fifth tail.

In fact the spirit growth promotion ritual obtained after dealing with Hyman was not having much effect.

“It’s not for nothing that they tried to use the wizard as a catalyst to make an offering…”

A ritual that gradually increases the power of spirits by setting up a drinking camp and offering the necessary catalysts to the drinking camp in order.

However it was no exaggeration to say that the energy created by offering the catalyst in the process was rarely completely transmitted to the spirits.

Even though it is strictly using the power of magic and ritual the amount of consumption lost while transmitting power is at an absurd level.

It took almost a truckload of magic power to make it so that Dabi’s cognitive ability could barely detect the magic power equivalent to tears.

[Couldn’t these evil shamans have committed fraud?]

Dabi said that and raised his five-pronged tail.

[I think I need to scold those organisms again.]

“There are less than five shamans from the Ghost God Palace who survived. What are you talking about?”

Lennok said and pinched Dabi’s cheek.

“The consciousness itself is real. “The problem seems to be something other than efficiency.”

Having tried various artifacts as catalysts with Dabi the essence of the spirit growth promotion ritual lies in directly stimulating the spirituality of the spirits.

The original spirituality of an intelligent being is not only something that cannot be physically touched but it is also difficult to interfere with without a specific curse or negative consciousness.

However this ritual allows the spirit’s spirituality to be directly stimulated with magical power by simply consuming a specific catalyst for the entity called a spirit.

Most spirits can greatly increase their cognitive abilities and raise their level of existence to the next level just by being spiritually stimulated through these rituals.

In Dabi’s case the reason why there was no response even though he consumed all kinds of artifacts to stimulate his spirituality.

In the first place it was because the growth process necessary for other spirits was something that Dabi had already passed by a long time ago.

“Your spirituality and cognitive abilities are so vastly developed that you cannot be inspired by even the slightest stimulus.”

[under….]

Dabi threw his head back and shook it.

[It was also because the Master’s spirit was too good. I can understand that.]

“….”

[If you think about it it was only natural. I should have realized a long time ago that my spirituality which does not neglect cultivation even for a single day is as wide developed as the ocean than those who are satisfied when they eat a full stomach and fall asleep!]

“No poet can say something that he hasn’t even been to the sea.”

[Have you been there with the master?]

“We went together… I see.”

Lennok who was about to refute the comment that they went to the sea together closed his mouth when he realized when Dabi was talking about.

Philenom Dominion where the headquarters of the Blue Eye is located. Haven’t we all visited the Sea of ​​Understanding where the floating island colony is located?

Lennok was busy searching the drug lord’s warehouse at the time but Dabi seemed to have remembered the sea view he had seen for the first time for a long time.

When I think about it there were definitely moments when I could see the sea such as when I visited the Far East branch of the Guido Church.

It’s just that Lennok didn’t keep all those moments deep in his memory.

Lennok smiled while gently stroking Dabi’s head.

“…Next time it would be nice to be able to go to the sea for purposes other than combat. yes?”

[If I go to the machine city Machina this time that might happen.]

Dabi said that and licked his tongue.

[Based on known information one of Machina’s biggest power sources is seawater power generated during the process of purifying seawater.]

“Is there an area within the city defined by the sea?”

[Rather than that the entire city seems to function more like a huge power plant.]

While Lennok was chatting with Dabi about other things he naturally turned his attention to the loot he had acquired through recent events.

“Now that I think about it it’s a ticket to the Machine City. “After I got my hands on it I haven’t attempted to process it for a while.”

Lennok who took out two artificial biological chips near the workbench and placed them down placed Dabi in front of him and asked.

“How can you do it?”

A ticket required to enter and exit each area of ​​Machine City.

The purpose of obtaining one ticket from the cartel and one ticket from the agent was to compare two different tickets to find out the rules of the periodically updated pattern.

I started the work now because I was a little late in confirming the ticket sent from Agent Director Greta Wiederhild.

With Dabi’s ability it wouldn’t be difficult to compare two different tickets and find out the differences.

The problem was in recognizing such changes and predicting future updated patterns.

Snap!!

Dabi who was holding two tickets with both front paws put them in his mouth and chewed them and the work surface sparkled with electricity.

As soon as the current flowed into the biological chip the chip’s appearance flashed and Dabi’s tail changed into different colors and flapped along with it.

Dabi’s form goes back and forth between the lightning and frozen electric brains and the spiritual and physical bodies.

“….”

After obtaining the automatic battle algorithm and awakening the fifth tail I feel that the changes in appearance and fluidity have become much stronger.

Apart from going back and forth between the spirit body and the materialization state is the essence of being closer to an electric fox changing little by little?

‘That change in appearance at that time. It was not in the form of an attribute.’

At the moment when he captured Hyman and decided to dispose of him Dabi’s appearance seemed to touch the abyss of the universe even if only for a moment.

Although it passed like a fantasy for a moment it was definitely one of the horizons of possibility that Dabi could reach.

Is this because it is a spirit born under the strong influence of Lennok’s image of observing the divergence of possibilities?

It is still unknown whether it is a side effect caused by the sudden increase in power during the process of awakening to Omiho.

Even Dabi himself cannot control the changes in his own appearance yet but when he awakens his new tail he may be able to find out what that appearance was.

[Master is finished.]

While Lennok was lost in thought Dabi spat out the biological chip he was holding and held one out to Lennok.

[I identified the update encryption pattern variable and adjusted the encryption variable of the biometric chip to match the date.]

“good job.”

[The details are areas that cannot be guessed or adjusted right now so they are left for future change.]

“You mean it’s difficult to confirm unless you arrive at Machina and use it yourself?”

Thinking so Lennok stood up holding the biochip.

Dabi naturally jumped on Lennok’s shoulder as he turned off the lights in the lab and left.

[It would be nice if I could go to Machine City right away!!]

“I know what you expect but we’re not leaving right away.”

As Lennok said that he checked the message box on his phone and frowned faintly.

“There’s been a lot of contact… There have been too many things that have happened all at once.”

While I was meeting Kaise in the closed area mediating the power game between agents and cartels and resolving the terrorist incident at the Ghost Shrine it had been a while since I received any outside contact.

Apart from the hectic pace of time in megacities the world outside the city is also spinning rapidly.

[Lapis: We succeeded in finding the fourth lighthouse candidate site and taking the lead. When the lighthouse is finished being built I think we will probably be able to restore new abilities.]

A lighthouse construction plan for the Blue Eyes sent by the lighthouse keeper. The lighthouse keeper’s supernormal abilities are activated accordingly.

At the bottom of the message was a reply stating the date when construction of the lighthouse would end and the planned participation in a large-scale joint operation on the central front after construction was completed.

“…A large-scale joint operation?”

There was no further explanation perhaps due to concerns about information being leaked but Lennok found the answer in a completely different place.

A message had arrived from the broker of Bokmajeon on another cell phone that he was carrying under his identity as Victor.

[Hilea: The Hedro warlord has become corrupted. Orders to kill all enemies including generals were given. It looks like a punitive force will be formed soon so please contact me if you are interested.]

“Headro warlord….”

Although it is an armed group that occupies a significant portion of the central front compared to its size and power Lennok has only encountered it in person once.

That also happened when I went to meet Hilea who was living at a cathedral in a remote area of ​​the Balkans as Victor.

I knew that there was little news about the Central Front considering it was active but was there an incident that warranted an order to kill all the generals?

If the word ‘corruption’ is used for all warlords there must be some kind of secret.

[Priscilla: I’m sending you a message as I haven’t been able to contact you for a few days. My sister seems to have a bit of a headache but she’s doing well. I would like you to tell me that the mercenary group will likely change their security personnel soon…]

[Felix: Is your health any better after going to the semi-closed area? I’m a little worried about your injury. Stella’s hobby is collecting useful medicinal herbs so if you happen to need anything just tell me secretly…]

In addition there were contacts from school officials student agents and mercenary groups but Lennok was unable to reply to any more messages and left the lab.

[Madame: Your reply is too late right? If you still want to talk about the matter come to my mansion.]

I received confirmation from Madam that I had time to make an appointment.

Where was Kaise’s body buried and who was managing the place?

It was time to hear it directly from her own lips.
