Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 77



“That happened.”

Raoul said with a weak smile.

“I think the situation has become too big for you to wipe your mouth with just the ring I gave you.”

The ring… Raoul may have only known the ring as a type of artifact that radiates heterogeneous magical power but Lennok had some idea of ​​the inside story.

The shape of a huge tree root discovered through changes in properties. It must be a clue that it has a deep connection to an old wizard family.

It doesn’t just stop there there is a high possibility that it could be the key to unlocking something hidden.

However rather than telling Raoul what to say Lennok quietly nodded.

“It’s not wrong.”

“I will look for items made by my children that can be helpful to the wizard. “I wish you would work a little harder.”

“……”

Although their combat abilities are said to be relatively low they are experts in Buyeo-type black magic.

Considering that they have previously maintained a commercial presence and conducted business in District 44 it is unlikely that they will hand over products that are below expectations.

I’m not here to brag about what I’ve done so far but there’s absolutely no need to decline giving it to me.

Meanwhile Raoul spoke with a worried expression.

“It’s a necromancy technique… It’s not a technique our faction handles but I’ve seen and heard a few things about it.”

“Tell me.”

The core of necromancy is basically entrusting the risk that the magician must bear to another being.

Finish by preparing the body or equivalent materials needed for incarnation and reciting the chant.

Complex rituals and colorful ingredients. Unlike summoning techniques that require a great deal of luck it can be used as long as there is the consent of the being to be summoned.

However because a being who has acquired a body and incarnated in this way is granted complete autonomy that even the caster cannot interfere with until the magic power runs out it is said that in the long past it was not uncommon for a being so incarnated to kill the caster.

In modern academia research has been conducted with the idea of ​​imposing restrictions and prohibitions on the behavior of beings in various ways in order to prevent the serious risks of such necromancy but in the end these methods have similar pros and cons to summoning but can be backwards compatible. I had the problem of not being able to go outside.

In the end the black magicians accepted the necromancy method that had begun to be pushed aside in mainstream magic theory and continued the lineage of the current practical faction.

Half-blood princes who accept any useful magic.

Before I knew it the story was moving beyond necromancy and into the history of the warlock faction.

“The Practical faction is different from the black magicians who only focused on one faction.”

“In fact it would be better to see it as an organization that operates according to the strong will and personality of its elder Craig Tillian. Of course I have always respected Craig’s ability to bring together those who were disappointed with his magic and achieve that goal but…”

Raoul dropped his shoulders and laughed weakly.

“This is what happened.”

“…….Why do you think they coveted knowledge related to artificial intelligence?”

“It’s not like I don’t have any guesses but… I’d like to hear what you think first.”

“……”

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen your face but I can tell just from what I’ve seen.”

He said while strongly distorting his wrinkled eyes.

“You are the most intuitive wizard I have ever seen. “He casually throws out words that cut to the core and the realization contained in passing sentences…. At such a young age he specializes in speaking like a scholar who has lived for decades.”

“……”

“Mr. Croken must have recognized that aspect as well which is why he allowed you to contact us. “I honestly suspect that you are hiding your age.”

‘This is a bit surprising.’

He had talked to Raoul face to face less than five times.

Among them the number of times we talked about magic was probably less.

Nevertheless Raoul says that he smelled a strong talent in Lennok’s part.

I thought he was just an old man who was helplessly caught up in situations but I wonder if all his years and experience are going nowhere.

And the person who honestly shared his or her insights should be given an honest answer.

Rather than adding more words to Raoul’s story about his talent Lennok honestly told him what he was thinking.

“Necromancy and artificial intelligence. “It is easy to mistake them for being completely different fields but surprisingly there is one very strong commonality between these two fields.”

“What is that?”

Lennok answered while rubbing the tobacco that was blooming.

“The hope that someone will do for you what you cannot do….”

“……”

“The roots lie at the root of something different from the principles of techniques or the understanding of engineering.”

-The roots of a huge tree.

Lennok paused for a moment as a thought flashed through his mind but fortunately Raoul immediately understood what he was trying to say.

“It’s a wish… I guess so. “You have the talent to see beyond simple techniques.”
