Drug-Eating Genius Mage
Chapter 69

As soon as Evelyn’s hologram disappeared, Jenny immediately looked down at her phone.

“The same amount was deposited into my account as in the last operation. Do you really think that this job will be paid as a reward for success? That’s reasonable.”

“I bet Evelyn Marcia wouldn’t lie.”

As a result, it was discovered that warlocks were intervening in the city, so it was not strange even if the agent thought so.

On the contrary, there is a high possibility that he will be recognized as a great partner who actively cooperates with the operation even without Lennok.

There was no need to explain to Evelyn how Lennok got into the Pillar business.

“Is information sharing following this way?”

“I guess so. It’s an open secret that not only city governments but also agents are using the deep web. As much as secretly using surplus resources on the main network of the city government, security would be perfect.”

Jenny said that while holding a long candle in her mouth and glanced up at Lennok.

“But will you be okay?”

“what?”

“When I first started, I didn’t think that things would grow this far, so I didn’t move.”

“……..”

“I thought it wouldn’t be too much of a burden if it was simply chasing the legacy of the black magicians, but if a terrorist organization intervenes, that’s a different story. In particular, Falchion is of very poor quality… If you have to put it into words, they are extremely cruel.”

It’s going to be hard to get a very good look. She opened her mouth.

A hazy billow of smoke slowly soaked the air in the office.

“If you want, it might be better to remove yourself now.”

“jenny.”

said Lennok with a smile.

“If you were worried about that, you should have ripped it off when I first walked into this bar.”

“………..”

I know why she is saying this now.

Quite a lot has changed since Lennok first came to see her.

Now, Lennok is clearly one of the most sought-after freelancers in her bar, and a highly skilled wizard coveted by everyone else.

A series of battles with the gang’s main powers.

In addition, Lennok’s fighting skills, which brought countless talented people to their knees in a half-to-one manner from the front, began to become more famous than his magical realm.

It’s already been over a year since I started going to this bar.

Now, Lennok was spreading his name beyond District 49 to other districts.

Aside from personal feelings, Jenny also feels the need to manage risks so that her powerful card, Gra, does not vanish in vain in a place like this.

“Don’t worry too much.”

He rubbed the cigarette he was holding in his hand into the ashtray and stood up.

“Because I’ve been working all this time to avoid that kind of situation.”

“Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu00hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, all the guys who do a little bit are like that, but I really don’t know what half of you are thinking.”

Would it feel that way if you were watching from the sidelines jumping into the sum of warlocks and terrorist organizations without even knowing what you really wanted?

But Lennok had a calculation that this stance would help him in the long run.

It is ambiguous to actively intervene in the conflict between warlocks simply by accepting and accepting Raoul’s request, but it is a different story if agents including Evelyn intervene.

Agent called one of the sharpest spears of the city government. If I can properly impress them here, the scope of what Lennok can do in this city will continue to expand.

In collaboration with Dyke, he is already known as a person capable of negotiating directly with companies beyond being a simple freelancer in the back alley.

Close collaboration with the agent was highly likely to bring more synergies than Lennok wanted.

Perhaps Jenny knew about that, too, so she didn’t actively dissuade him until now.

It was proof that the name of ‘Hyeongung’ Evelyn Marcia had great power.

She could advise Lennok, but she couldn’t change his decision.

Lennok had always chosen for himself what he wanted and what he ought to do.

It was a fact that had never changed since he fell into this world.

Jenny shook her head with an expression that

Priscilla couldn’t help but said.

“okay. If this thing goes well, it won’t be difficult to maintain a connection with the agents. That woman already seems to have a very good opinion of you.”

“….is it?”

“Can’t you tell just by looking at the number of direct calls these days? Even though a monster like that would be hectic if he were sitting in public office, he’s showing his face every time. I want to give the impression that I am treating them that way.”

“……”

“You don’t want to be an agent, do you?”

“no way.”

Aside from the fact that the agent is dedicated to the well-being of the city, he has little interest in the policing organization.

Rather, I don’t know if it’s a reward that can be obtained through them.

“If you are a member of the city government, you must know a lot of information about ghosts that I can’t easily get. For example…”

“Elixir or something?”

“…..Exactly.”

Requests coming in through Jenny’s hands are reviewed from time to time even while executing operations with agents.

The problem is that the quests for the elixir or unique magic system that Lennok wants, or the quests that offer the item as a reward, are still hard to see.

I thought I had raised my reputation and ransom quite a bit, but it seemed like I still had a long way to go to get my hands on those things.

“Hmm… Actually, this kind of problem can be easily solved by replaceing a sponsor, but half of you don’t want that.”

“I want to avoid taking care of anyone or an organization. That’s why you don’t bother contacting Dyke after the job is over.”

Jenny giggled at Lennox’s sullen words.

“I know that? The Panoa woman still sends me greetings from time to time. Even though he must be busy expanding the arms trade business.”

“………”

I thought he was refraining from direct contact with Lennok, but was he attacking the surroundings in a way that didn’t go against his heart?

There might be an opportunity to work with Dyke Corporation again someday, but at least for the time being, I hadn’t thought about it.

Anyway, maybe it was because Lennok gave off a strong nuance that he wanted the elixir, so after a long time Jenny started to release the information she knew first.

“I think the easiest way is to get your ticket to the underground auction house.”

“It’s an underground auction house…”

Come to think of it, Dyke Corporation also said they obtained the artifact called Enakpil’s Five Fingers through a VIP auction hosted by the city council.

As expected, it seemed that to replace a valuable item, you needed not only money but also a connection to match it.

“You can’t just go into the auction house. In order to get your hands on the item you want, you first need to get your hands on an advanced ticket that allows you to bid on the item.”

“It’s just that you need qualifications just to participate.”

“Because if you receive such valuable customers and participate in the auction, the quality of the items that come out goes up. It is because of the unique feature of the auction house that the customer becomes the exhibitor again.”

That’s why all the treasures of the city wander in the shadows, Jenny continued.

“I sneaked a look through Panoa, but they said it was difficult to get a ticket through the underground auction room on this floor other than the one on the sunny side.”

“…..Have you already put in a word?”

“You do what you can on your own.”

The type of person who replaces a solution on his own and then speaks out.

Lennok inadvertently laughed as the preliminary candidate report seemed to reveal Jenny’s bubbly way of working.

“After this operation is successful, I’ll try to sneak a word with Ibelin. No matter how much it is, there is a kkamnyang rather than a dyke company, so I will give you a reward that will be helpful to you.”

“good.”

As he grabbed the doorknob of the office, Lennok’s brain flashed.

“In order to do that, first of all, we have to bring the result that the woman likes and offer it to her.”
