Drug-Eating Genius Mage

The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Chapter 979

: Celestial Magic: Model Garden (2)

“To be honest, I thought the rumors about you were exaggerated…”

Clarice, who was guiding Lennok to the management office, sighed softly and said.

“I guess I was mistaken.”

“What do you mean?”

“If Lightning is hiding his identity and teaching alternative chants, what on earth would other wizards think of him?”

Clarice, who was walking ahead, glanced back at Lennok and asked.

“You could have said it any time you wanted to. “Why was I listening to gossip about you when I obviously knew it?”

“There’s no particular reason.”

Lennok, after thinking for a moment, answered.

“I just did it because it looked fun.”

“….”

Clarice was speechless and looked back at Lennok blankly.

She must have been unable to understand Lennok’s attitude of teaching her about alternative chants while listening to her gossip about herself.

Clarice, who was glaring at Lennok’s face with a thoughtful expression, hesitated and spoke.

“Just in case, I will tell you, you must not kill the wizards of the Magic Tower.”

“Is that what you call it?”

“No torture or interrogation. It is also not possible to take an arm or a leg in return. “I can’t even allow you to pull out your tongue.”

“It’s also cruel. Could it be that you were thinking of such a terrible act as revenge?”

“…”

Lennok’s extremely shameless answer made blood appear on Clarisse’s forehead.

Lennok, who saw Clarisse clenching her fists, smiled and pointed to the management office.

“Okay, let’s go in and talk. “I have something I want to talk about with the owner of this studio.”

“…ha.”

I walk down the studio hallway, following Clarisse, who sighs deeply.

While you haven’t seen it, the studio’s materials and props have been replaced with state-of-the-art equipment.

It is no exaggeration to say that although the location is the same as when I visited before, the scenery inside has completely changed.

As I opened the door to the management office and entered, someone sitting inside turned their head.

“Ban…?”

“You…”

A vaguely familiar woman was looking at Lennok in disbelief.

Lennok, who remembered that face in an instant, nodded.

“The wizard I saw at the hearing. “Did you say he was a member of the Valefor Tower?”

“This is Avenia Stenson. “I see you remembered.”

Avenia lowered her head and said, unable to hide her surprise.

“How did Ban get into this studio…?”

“Two people. “Do you know each other?”

“I was in charge of guiding the hearing during the hearing.”

“Oh, I see…”

I thought the management office was empty, but was it unexpected that there were people there?

Clarice muttered as if she was troubled, then cleared her throat and winked at Lennok.

“Fast. “It’s this way.”

“…I… Nice to meet you. yes.”

A strong-looking woman with voluminous white hair was standing awkwardly, looking at Lennok.

Lancia is a martial arts instructor who runs a Pilates studio.

And he is the one who taught Lennok the martial art of Gujungdorae and an incomprehensible counterattack.

Although he had visited the studio several times, it was not strange that Lancia did not recognize Lennok.

Since this was the first time Lancia had come to the studio with Ban’s face and identity, there was no chance of Lancia recognizing Lennok.

Rather, it must be said that it was truly surprising that Lennok came back to the studio at this time.

“They say he’s the most popular archmage in Balkan these days.”

Lancia looked back at Lennok with a shocked expression and said.

“I don’t know much about that industry, so my face-”

“I didn’t know there was a training craze among magicians.”

Lennok asked after interrupting Lancia.

“I want to hear an explanation about it from the person himself. Is it possible?”

“You may have already heard the explanation, but alternative chants using martial arts are currently being actively studied among wizards.”

Clarice answered instead.

This may be because they decided that it would be better to finish the conversation and leave the studio rather than asking them to vacate the management office immediately.

“There are many alternative chants to replace the prisoner, but Cheonbeon’s is the most complete in terms of perfection. “Wizards are starting to flock to an environment where they can naturally learn martial arts.”

“It’s an environment where you can learn martial arts.”

“Lancea is from a martial arts school, so she has a high understanding of the body and deep insight into the use of magical power within the body. “Because he comes from a famous Mumun, magicians staying in the Balkans can trust his identity.”

“….”

“But the most important thing is that you are suggesting a very efficient teaching method even for magicians who are naturally weak or physically weak.”

Clarisse said, looking back at Lancia with an interesting expression.

“I know exactly how much I need to train to stimulate the body without putting too much strain on it, and this is a bigger help in training alternative chants than I thought.”

“So, word of mouth spread among the wizards of the Magic Tower.”

“Avenia here is also training at the studio through a similar process. “She is a person who has a great desire to improve herself and become stronger.”

Avenia lowered her head at Clarisse’s words.

“There is no shame. sorry.”

“Why are you apologizing?”

“Isn’t it because of studying alternative chanting?”

Clarisse laughed and defended Avenia.

“It seems like he respects you quite a bit. “Maybe I didn’t want to be found out that I was learning the techniques I fought with you a thousand times.”

“Oh, because of that…”

Lennok smiled and raised his gaze.

“doesn’t care. “Is there any reason to split sides when it comes to researching and learning techniques?”

“….”

“You can’t imitate something just by seeing it, but if you have something to learn from a thousand ways, you should take it and learn it.”

Avenia, whose expression remained unchanged despite Lennok’s words, turned her gaze towards Lancia.

“Moreover, if there is a martial artist who can help you with martial arts training, is there any reason not to try it?”

“Actually, it’s not something I could have done on my own.”

Lancia said sheepishly.

“I’ve told my students a few times, but I once taught a student who was very weak.”

“….”

“Among the students I taught, there was one whose body was weak, as if his entire body was literally cursed.”

Would it be an illusion if you thought that you would be able to tell who the weak student was referring to as soon as you heard it?

Lancia, perhaps aware of Lennok’s feelings, muttered as if lost in memories.

“Although he was physically weak, he had really strong patience and mental strength. Thanks to that, I gained a very deep understanding of the body’s coordination while teaching him.”

“Such a story…”

“Because we experienced the worst case scenario, we were able to conduct the class by lowering the average.”

“yes. “In that regard, it was a great help in providing customized courses for wizards.”

Even Avenia and Clarice seem to be listening with interest.

While Lennok raised his gaze to hide his expression, Lancia said, tilting her teacup.

“I owe him a lot in many ways. “He has been giving me annual studio memberships for a long time, so I’ve had a lot of trouble to this day.”

“….”

“I would like to repay you when you come to the studio, but you are someone I cannot contact at all on a regular basis.”

The fact that the experience of teaching Pilates and martial arts to Lennok ultimately helped Lancia’s business greatly.

How far did the aftermath of a thousand fights with fastness extend? I didn’t expect to see it in a place like this, but it wasn’t a bad thing that Lancia’s business was doing well.

Anyway, Lancia is one of the very few martial artists who learned and mastered the martial art ‘Gujungdorae’.

In order for Lennok to learn more about Gujungdorae in the future, it would be advantageous in many ways for Lancia’s business to prosper for a long time.

“I think I’ve heard enough about substitute chanting. Thank you for your honest explanation.”

Thinking so, Lennok put down his teacup and stood up.

“Clarice. egg plant.”

“yes. “I’m ready.”

Whoop!!

As Clarisse stood up while saying that, her martial arts uniform instantly transformed into an old-fashioned robe.

It was a high-level displacement technique that even Lancia’s eyes widened for a moment.

Clarisse, with her hand on her chest, bowed her head politely towards Lancia.

“Instructor. Thank you for your hard work today. Then again next week.”

“Oh yeah. Please look carefully.”

The moment Lancia lowered her head and opened the door to the management office, the studio instantly became quiet.

The wizards standing in an orderly manner in front of the management office were bowing their heads with pale complexions.

I couldn’t leave the studio and couldn’t concentrate on my training.

He looks as if he is standing awkwardly, waiting for the time to come, like a child being punished.

“…what?”

The atmosphere in the studio is so cold that even Lancia tilts his head in embarrassment.

“Hmm hmm.”

“Uh…”

“Haa…”

Clearing my throat and sighing. Hesitation and faint lamentation.

The wizards who had been chatting amicably with Lennok just moments ago avoided eye contact, unable to even look at each other.

Yet, unable to run away or turn his back, he just stands there silently waiting for Lennok to say something.

While Clarisse sighed with a look of difficulty, Lennok stepped forward with a smile.

“I listened carefully to your opinions regarding alternative chanting.”

“…!!”

At one word from Lennok, the shoulders of the wizards trembled loudly in the quiet studio.

Only then did Lancia realize that this silence was caused by Lennok, and her expression changed to bewilderment.

“Whether it’s interpretation or handling, there are quite a few interesting parts.”

Lennok said as he looked at the magic tower wizards who turned towards him.

“It’s not a bad thing in itself for wizards from various magic towers to come together and study a single technique.”

“….”

“So that you can continue to work hard in the future.”

Lennok nodded toward Lancia, leaving the wizards silent with pale expressions.

“then.”

“No, what on earth happened….”

“Ban.”

While Lancia was muttering something, Avenia quickly nodded to Lennok.

“I will take charge of this. “Please go first.”

“You’ve had a lot of trouble.”

Avenia bowed her head at Lennok’s words.

“I will see you soon in the name of Valefor.”

Even though he puts in the effort to do something that has nothing to do with him, he even gets a reasonable amount of benefit out of it.

I also felt it at the time of the hearing, but the work was done quite well.

After saying hello to Avenia, Lennok left the studio with Clarisse.

“I really can’t understand humans like you…”

asked Clarice, who followed Lennok with a bewildered expression.

“Why did you say that to the magic tower wizards at the end?”

“well.”

Lennok shrugged.

“If I were to be honest, I hope they don’t stop researching alternative chants.”

“I hope you don’t quit?”

“Wouldn’t it be strange if the wizards got scared and ran away because of me, disrupting the business of a woman named Lancia?”

Lennok looked back at Clarice and said with a cold smile.

“So, we just made it possible for them to continue practicing martial arts at that studio in the future with peace of mind.”

“….”

Above all, shouldn’t they continue to research alternative chants and achieve results so that Lennoc can also consume their interpretations and research day by day?

Clarice, who was at a loss for words, checked the messages on her phone in her arms and opened her mouth slightly.

“…It is said that all students at the Pilates studio canceled their memberships every 5 years.”

“It seems like this woman named Lancia has quite good business skills.”

“You…”

Clarice, who was about to say something as if she was shocked, sighed and shook her head.

“all right. “It’s not like I’m not responsible for saying I’m going to attend class until the end.”

“….”

“So now, can you explain what happened with Oliveira?”

* * *

Research building located in the basement of the cartel headquarters.

Anathema’s right arm hanging in the center of the ceiling and Oliveira watching from the control room.

It is a self-evident fact that there should not be a single mistake in the analysis of the components of the remains that the cartel chairman acquired at a huge price.

Oliveira, who was looking at the scenery of the research building beyond the veil with her arms crossed, spoke without looking back.

[The wizards of the Sinclair Magic Tower have always been irresponsible.]

“….”

[I wondered where they were hiding out and spending their time alone, but was it that they were enjoying the trivial things of the world?]

Lennok, who had just entered the research building, stood behind him. Oliveira’s magical eyes flashed sharply as she looked at Clarisse.

[I wonder if I have robbed Jangsaengjong of his precious time.]

“I don’t think we have the right to point out each other’s mistakes in this matter, Maze.”

Clarisse said, casually ignoring Oliveira’s blatantly sarcastic remarks.

“Didn’t you also try to privately use the purpose of fastness as a trading condition for this meeting?”

[It was thanks to an irresponsible long-lived servant who spends his time leisurely even after making a deal.]

Oliveira let out a cold laugh.

[But your shameless nature can be helpful on days like this. Otherwise, Jangsaengjong would not have been able to remain in this city.]

“….”

The gazes of the two wizards looking at each other suddenly turned sharp.

Lennok, who was watching from the side, clicked his tongue as if looking at something pitiful.

“I don’t know what I’m doing. “Are you guys going to even try fighting here?”

Lennok had previously asked Clarice about how to get to Kundara, and she gave him the elixir Aris had made and said she would find out how.

Clarice consulted with Oliveira about the matter, but Oliveira found out through him that Lennok was trying to go to Kundara.

At the meeting, Oliveira discussed Anathema’s cause and effect and asked Lennok to make a deal using that information.

It would be natural for the relationship between Oliveira and Clarisse to become somewhat uncomfortable at this point in the situation.

“There is a misunderstanding. “I am not here to criticize or reprimand her.”

However, despite Lennok’s dissuasion, Clarice answered calmly without any expression.

“I’m just curious as to how Maze came up with the intention of cooperating with you at this point.”

[If you had heard about what happened at the meeting, you would have known what kind of specialty that wizard had made.]

Oliveira waved her veil.

[It is only right that rewards be given to those who achieve more than expected. Is it so strange that I cooperate with him?]

“Maze. You are not the type of person who can move yourself with just that much motivation. Wouldn’t it be reasonable to think that there is more to it than that?”

“….”

“More than anything, since I am a close acquaintance of my student, as a teacher, I will try to give him as much consideration as possible.”

Clarisse said and turned her gaze towards Lennok.

“Maze, if there is a personal reason for helping you, I think we should point out that fact.”

[Hoo. My disciple….]

I felt like Oliveira’s eyes looking at Lennoc were mischievously twisted beyond the veil.

[This is surprising. Is even a cold-blooded person like you tied up in personal feelings or relationships?]

“I can’t say it’s personal, but… I’m not sure.”

Lennok raised his gaze with a wry smile.

“As you often say, a lot of time has passed.”

[….]

“….”

Was he surprised by Lennok’s response, which did not deny Clarice’s words, or was he shaken by his attitude of not holding back on those feelings?

Oliveira and Clarice put their hands into Lennoc’s arms, not paying attention to the two people looking at him in surprise.

Palak.

Lennok took out the grimoire of celestial magic he had borrowed from Nox Biblio, showed it to Clarice, and said.

“Oliviera said that you could use this celestial technique to open the way to Kundara.”

“….”

Lennok asked Clarice, who did not answer but was silently looking at the grimoire.

“Check the contents of the grimoire and answer. “How long will it take to twist the veil and find a way to Kundara?”

“…Celestial magic is not a magic that directly manipulates and changes the movements of the sky.”

Clarisse took the grimoire, opened it with a calm expression, and said.

“No matter how hard a mortal tries, it is impossible to change the movement of the celestial sphere and the trajectory of the planets. “It is rather an act closer to an apostle.”

“then?”

“In ancient times, people interpreted the stars in the night sky in relation to the fate of the earth and called their fluctuations heavenly fate.”

“….”

“By changing the constellations in the sky, artificially handling heaven’s destiny on earth and indirectly reaching out to the ultimate destiny.”

widely.

Clarisse said, covering the grimoire with one hand.

“This is the basic essence that must be awakened in order to learn and use astronomical techniques.”

Astronomical Technique Development

Model Garden: Celestial

Sphere Formation Spero Sphaera

Paaaa!!

The light erupting from the grimoire spread out in an instant, drawing a huge celestial sphere on the page.

The brilliant celestial sphere floating over the ceiling and walls of the underground cavity began to rotate steadily, embracing the three people.

A mysterious and beautiful scenery as if the entire space of the research building was used as a model of a huge night sky and the movement of stars was drawn.

“This is…”

A model garden created through astronomical techniques. Is it a force called the source of the magnetic realm?

The moment when Lennok was trying to raise his magic power to look around the model garden depicting the shape of the celestial sphere.

Oliveira said coldly.

[fastness. If you don’t want to be crushed to death, step back.]

“…Crushed to death?”

[The concept of a model garden is the power to build an ideal landscape that does not exist in reality by overlaying it on the world.]

Oliveira said as she saw Clarisse’s body, holding the grimoire open, covered in pure white light.

[In other words, it means that the essence of the Jangsaengjong, which can only be seen in the ritual space, can be forcibly brought out to this place.]

“…No way.”

Lennoc, who belatedly understood the meaning of what Oliveira said, glanced around.

Oliveira, with her arms crossed, nodded with a very interested expression.

[After a while, Clarice Richellen’s main body will descend to this place.]

“Apsalani. “That is truly rude, Maze.”

At that moment, pure white light exploded around Clarisse’s body and filled the entire heavenly sphere.

Kwaaaaaaa!!!

The divine beast, emitting a mysterious light, landed in the middle of the research building and looked down at Oliveira with a cold gaze.

“Let me be clear, I am not that heavy.”

“….”

Instead of answering those words, Lennok silently lowered his gaze.

The answer was an alloy container that had been trampled and crushed under the feet of a huge divine beast.
