Drug-Eating Genius Mage

약먹는 천재마법사 907화

Hearing (3)

“Through the overload of magical power, the bias of the intention is forced to move the coordinates…”

Coordinate movement implemented by Lennok around the Phoenix Hall at the top level of the Magic Tower.

Only then did Jenny understand what kind of system Lennok was planning to create inside the tower, and sighed.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but anyway, you’re saying that you created a system that allows you to move freely within the tower?”

“To be precise, the sense of distance is shortened to the limit by connecting different coordinate points.”

Lennok answered.

“Lightning connector. Connecting sequence. “I haven’t decided on a name yet, so it doesn’t matter what you call me.”

In terms of speed alone, coordinate movement, which is comparable to spatial jumping, can be freely used only within the tower’s sphere of influence.

That was Lennok’s purpose in taking the time to remodel the output of the Phoenix Battle and reorganize the system.

“Once you get used to it, the recoil will probably decrease. “I just did it without explanation to give you a feel for it.”

“…If I move like this one more time, I think my heart will break.”

Lennok asked as Jenny stood up, holding on to her trembling legs.

“So, what do the administrators of the deep web have to do with me?”

Deep web, an unauthorized community created between the entire brain space of the city government’s central network.

A network of outlaws with no rules or restrictions other than the fact that it operates on a membership basis.

It is no exaggeration to say that most people working in the shadows of the Balkans obtain information.

It is also a contradictory space where false information or dummy data equivalent to viruses are piled up twice as much.

Lennok has also occasionally accessed the deep web and obtained useful information, but this is the first time he has heard of the administrators who run the network.

Of course, as it is a membership-based community, it would not be strange to have an administrator.

Why do people who have never been mentioned before suddenly want to meet Lennok?

Jenny, who had finally regained her composure, straightened out her hair and spoke.

“There was a big gamble on the deep web about what happened this time.”

“If it’s gambling… Oh, I see.”

Lennok asked, immediately realizing the meaning and nodding his head.

A thousand battles with fastness that took place in the outskirts of the city. Was there another gambling game taking place on the deep web over the winner or loser?

It’s not strange, considering that there are people who want to bet on everything in the world.

“Is it a money problem?”

“It is said that the betting held this time was in the top ten of all time on the deep web.”

Jenny said, brushing off his body and adjusting his clothes.

“But I don’t think it’s your problem. Managers don’t intervene in betting. Rumor has it that he once got seriously burned over that problem…”

“You contacted me because of a bet about something I did, but it really wasn’t about money?”

Lennok laughed.

“That doesn’t sound very credible.”

“okay. That’s what I think too…”

Jenny said with a slightly serious expression.

“I guess it’s a good reason to meet you in person.”

“Meeting in person?”

“There was a rumor that most of the administrators of the deep web were forebrain creatures who uploaded their consciousness to the network.”

“….”

“I guess they think you can find your way into the deep web network.”

In response to Jenny’s sharp guess, Lennok momentarily closed his mouth.

As soon as Lennok heard that, he seemed to know what deep web administrators wanted.

He’s probably not aware of Dabi’s existence or abilities.

Dabi is an electric spirit who uses the benefits of anonymity in the deep web so well that even Lennok sticks out his tongue.

It is a spirit of a very special lineage that has grown from strong artificial intelligence since birth.

If they had known that such a being was wreaking havoc on the deep web, their reaction would not have been this bad.

In that case, it means that they were aware of the situation in which Lennoc was able to intervene in the pre-brain space through another method…

After thinking that far, Lennok nodded his head.

“understood. “I will look into this separately.”

“I know a few talented hackers in this field, but if you can’t decide, you can also ask Mirror Diver for a request.”

Mirror diver. It is the name of an organization created by hackers who manipulate networks even in the shadows of the Balkans.

Although he has heard their names a few times since coming to the Balkans, he has hardly ever had direct contact with them.

It was also because there was rarely a need for a capable hacker with Dabi by Lennok’s side…

“The deep web is a community created by borrowing free space from the city government’s central network. “It’s hard to believe that Mirror Diver isn’t involved in the maintenance of the Deep Web.”

“Are you saying I could be in trouble with the managers there?”

“As we don’t know what they want right now, there is no need to increase the number of people involved unnecessarily.”

“okay. “Then, I will take over all the hackers I have prepared.”

As Jenny said that, she took out her phone and operated the messenger.

The moment Lennok nodded, Jenny asked, looking at the ripples of electricity flowing over him.

“So, what do I need to do to use this?”

Jenny doesn’t know why Lennox bothers to show this to Jenny and explain it to her.

If he had not intended to teach this technique in the first place, he would not have bothered to explain the principle.

“You’re trying to teach me how to use that connector system, right?”

“There are two prerequisites.”

Lennok spread his fingers.

“One is that there should be no obstacles during the movement process. “It’s only natural that the coordinates are compressed and moved.”

“What about the other one?”

“The user must know how to draw the basic lines of the Ouroboros magic system.”

Lennok explained to Jenny, who kept her mouth shut.

“This is a creation magic that I created myself. “You can only have power if you know how to use my magic system at all.”

“….”

“That’s why I brought you here.”

Lennok laughed.

“When it comes to achievements in the magic system, you are the best among others.”

“Ugh… to be honest, I don’t even remember how to do it anymore.”

Jenny grumbled with a disapproving look.

“You just taught me this, and then you called me to teach other people, right?”

“Once you learn one thing, you know ten.”

“I haven’t learned anything properly yet!”

Only after Jenny, who couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted with an angry expression, finally regained her composure and closed her eyes.

“good. I’ll give it a try, but don’t say anything if I fail. “It’s been a few months since I stopped practicing.”

“I didn’t bring you here to nag.”

Lennok laughed softly.

“If there’s something you don’t know, I’ll tell you. do not worry.”

“…Anyway, if you can’t even say something….”

Even though Jenny grumbled at those words, she closed her eyes and concentrated.

He put both his hands in front of him, put them together, and then stretched out his thumb and index finger to form a triangle.

At the same time, a pure white ring of light emerged from within the triangle drawn by his hand and began to rotate.

Keyee…!!

“….”

I haven’t practiced for over a few months, but I wonder if I remember how to draw a legal formation properly.

As expected, the speed at which Jenny adapts to the Ouroboros magic system is very fast compared to others.

When it comes to his ability to learn Lennok’s magic system, he is far superior to Belin.

Is that, after all, a power that comes from the name Bajur, who connects Kaise and Ethan?

It is true that I would like to research Jenny’s origins, but I had no intention of recommending it unless she herself showed interest in the past.

Kaise Bajour and Ethan Bajour.

And there are many unclear aspects of the causal relationship between Zenithia Bajur, who was born under Ethan.

Considering that both Kaise and Ethan were born with the reverse talent to defy time, this must have been an intentional result.

However, we still don’t know what Jenny thinks about Ethan and Kaise.

Until now, I had been thinking that I could dig up the secret history they left behind independently of Jenny, but the reason Lennok was hesitant may have been due to the same feelings as Jenny.

We’ve come too far, and now it’s easier to pretend not to notice than to accept that something is changing.

Apart from the journey to find answers, we now understand that the human relationships surrounding Lennok were like that.

“haha…!!”

Just by concentrating for a moment and drawing the line, sweat was rolling down Jenny’s forehead.

His hair sticks wet to his cheeks and becomes even more frizzy.

Jenny muttered, shaking her hair in annoyance.

“It’s been a while since I did it, so I know what it feels like… but it doesn’t last long. “Is it a problem of concentration?”

“The relationship between body and mind is not that simple.”

Lennok said.

“Because you get tired easily, you lose focus, and because you lose focus, on the contrary, you lose energy faster.”

“But you don’t seem to care much about that when using magic.”

“I am….”

Lennok, who had nothing to say, laughed inadvertently.

Because I couldn’t directly say that it was a matter of talent that wasn’t tied to that causal relationship.

Jenny also realized how strange what he said was and cleared his throat.

“sorry. I said something stupid. “It makes no sense to compare accomplishments with the love of an archmage.”

“never mind.”

Lennok said, grabbing Jenny’s wrist and adjusting her posture.

After that, Jenny, with Lennok’s help, succeeded in launching the correct line after dozens of attempts.

Kiiiiing…!!

“The important thing is to remember the sensations.”

Lennok said to Jenny, who had her eyes closed and was sweating profusely.

“For now, make it a priority to maintain the Beopjin and learn the sense of receiving and using authority.”

“….”

“If you are properly familiar with the concept of compressing the coordinates of different areas, the magic formation I created will replace the specific invocation of the spell-”

Faaah!!

At that moment, Jenny’s body disappeared from the spot and appeared at the end of the hallway opposite.

“Ugh…!!”

Jenny, rather embarrassed by what she had accomplished, concentrated her mind and transferred the coordinates once more.

This time, her body appeared in the empty space of the magic tower.

Bye!!

Before Jenny’s new model crashed to the ground, Lennok immediately moved her coordinates to his side.

Wow!!

At the same time, the beam Jenny had lifted up broke and her body fell backwards.

“Attette…!!”

Jenny, who had been breathing heavily as she fell, lay down on the spot, stroking her reddened wrists.

“Ugh, I’m dizzy….”

“First, start from the safe first floor and practice slowly. “It will only be a matter of time before I can draw Beopjin stably.”

Lennok said and checked the time.

“To be honest, it’s not that difficult of a technique.”

“….”

Since the base and conditions of the spell are matched by the area of the Phoenix Hall and the Tower, there is almost no burden on the caster.

Among the magic created by Lennok himself recently, it is a movement technique with tremendous efficiency and intuitiveness, which is rare.

“The time has come, but I haven’t heard from you. Even if it means accessing the deep web and collecting information related to the hearing-”

Beep beep.

Dabi shook his phone lightly as if waiting for him in his arms.

“…It looks like preparations have been completed.”

Lennok nodded his head after checking the message.

“I’ll check the details after the hearing.”

* * *

Big city Balkan. District 15 Hearing Hall.

A tertiary administrative district where many government-affiliated agencies and departments are gathered.

More than hundreds of reporters were camped out in front of the square where citizens and public officials usually come and go.

Reporters with thick cameras waiting on both sides of the black carpet that extends from the end of the square to the hearing hall.

Reporters looking across the empty street were whispering.

“Are you really going to come?”

“You said you would attend in person, so…”

“You don’t know. Who knows, he might change his words at the end.”

“I don’t think anyone in their right mind would show their face here first.”

“Then I will come.”

At the words of one of the reporters, everyone fell silent as if they had made a promise.

“That wizard is out of his mind.”

“….”

There is no one who does not know how ruthless the wizard who notified his appearance at the hearing is and how he has done things as he pleases.

Didn’t the very fact that this hearing was held in the first place begin with the kidnapping of a lighthouse keeper who was visiting the Balkans in the middle of the city?

Therefore, the reporters who came out to cover this hearing also had a sense of anxiety and anticipation at the same time.

“He was the one who made a mess of every situation every time he appeared. “I’ll come back with a plan this time too.”

“What on earth did you intend to do by first notifying me of your appearance at the hearing?…”

“come…!!”

At that moment, a pitch-black sedan appeared from afar on the empty road.

Quiet driving without even a single noise.

After skillfully stopping the car on the shoulder of the square, a tall man got out of the driver’s seat.

He turns around with a polite motion, bends slightly at the waist and carefully opens the back door of the car.

Sweet!

The moment the car door opened and all the reporters raised their cameras and tried to pull the shutters all at once.

“…uh?”

Stunned voices came out of the reporters’ mouths, as if they had made a promise.

The black-haired young man who got out of the back of the sedan could not stand on his own two feet.

He was just sitting on a small portable chair with a blanket wrapped around his knees.

The image of a young man calmly rolling his wheels across the carpet, assisted by his taller man.

“….”

“…bathchair?”

“The Archmage came to the hearing in a wheelchair?”

The faces of the reporters who belatedly realized what they had seen were filled with indescribable despair.
