Chapter 230
Yeowun (4)
‘The easiest way would be to extract the essence of another mage tower. But it’s hard to get the right opportunity.’
Interaction with Thorburn’s tower was almost non-existent except for Eden, who was the leader of the cigar bang gang, but nevertheless, Lennok’s independent achievement of lightning-type unique magic was enough to be realized as an image.
Right now, Lennok was learning Blaver’s magic tower’s flame series’ unique magic, but right now, this achievement was only learned from Weizen and a young wizard who assisted the drug lord.
It was hard to see that it was accompanied by as deep an understanding as the Blitz series.
In fact, even though I have acquired the realm of imagery in a way that is ingenious and ridiculous, my worries only increase rather than decrease.
In the end, it meant that in order to utilize the realm that he had created himself to the limit, he had to change more actively than now, while minimizing risks.
Reaching the pinnacle of magic is one of the surest ways to cast off Lennok’s shackles.
However, in order to run towards the end, we need to collect various experiences and turning points much more actively than now and open up new possibilities.
‘I don’t know if I can get as much results as changing the course of action. I thought it was something I had to do someday… … .’
Even if he sticks to a passive position, in the end, only the rewards that others have already earned will fall into Lennok’s hands.
You have to find out for yourself what you want first.
Lennok, too, knew the surest way.
It just took a process of convincing his head that he had to prioritize wishes over safety.
The possibility you need has succeeded in getting your hands on it. Now it was time to move a little further.
You don’t have to think long. It would be enough just as long as Lennok didn’t forget where he was standing.
After thinking about it, Lennok immediately stood up from his seat.
While I came this far, there was one more thing I wanted to solve.
* * *
The place where I arrived naturally with a long cardigan in place is a pretty far-fetched workshop.
It was an insincere space without even a proper signboard, but Lennok immediately moved on without hesitation.
Hearing the loud drilling sound coming from inside, he pounded on the wall, and a stocky middle-aged man walked out from inside.
It was Palmer, a blacksmith whom he had known while dealing with the affairs of Dyke Corporation.
“Long time no see.”
Lennok asked with a smile, and he yawned and scratched his stomach.
My eyes were swollen as if I had been sleeping a little while ago.
“What are you doing here?”
“I heard that the workshop had moved, so I stopped by once to do some work.”
It definitely feels different from the cramped closet where you might collapse at any moment.
It’s not that big, but it definitely has the shape of a workshop than then.
Palmer’s income wouldn’t have changed much, so it would be reasonable to assume that Dyke Corporation is giving him considerable support.
Lennok casually pulled out a chair and sat down, and Palmer grunted, removing his gloves and sitting across from him.
“Isn’t that the only thing you say when you suddenly come to visit me without contacting me?”
“Isn’t it a close relationship due to business matters? If Panoa hears it, he will be sad.”
“… … .”
Looking at Palmer, who kept his mouth shut, it was clear that he had received her help in the process of setting up a new workshop.
Palmer slightly changed the subject.
“I heard rumors. Did you have a cool fight with the cartel guys?”
“Did that rumor spread?”
“Good job. A person who has been standing for such a long time needs to be beaten at least once. My hometown stopped doing it because it couldn’t do it right.”
If you keep listening to Palmer’s story, you might end up wasting your time.
Sensing an ominous feeling, Lennok immediately got to the point.
“You know I use firearms.”
“Ah, I barely remember. Even with that skill, I thought he had a strange taste because he liked gunpowder armament.”
“… … .”
“Come to think of it, I think I’ve looked at that revolver once before… … Am I right? I can’t remember what I did after drinking.”
“I came here for a similar thing this time.”
As Lennok said, he reached for his left wrist.
coo!!
In an instant, a revolver and a shotgun grew in shape and popped out onto the table.
Palmer’s eyes changed serious as he casually reached out and touched the two guns.
“hmm… … damn it.”
“… … .”
“There is a crack in the barrel of the revolver, and no matter how hard you turn the cylinder, the oil has dried up. What else is a shotgun? At all, the muzzle of this one melted and burned. Did you shoot at a target right in front of you?”
“Exactly.”
This time Palmer was silent.
Lennok also looked away slightly.
It’s not that I didn’t pay attention to gun management, but it’s true that I’ve been rolling the equipment up to now more than that.
It is not wrong to believe in the shooting assist magic and not to worry about the durability of the equipment.
Up until now, I had been able to survive by randomly hammering magic into cracked gun barrels or cylinders, but I couldn’t let it stay like that forever.
In the meantime, I had to rely on shooting assist magic to survive without changing my equipment, but I needed to change my equipment as well as the new level of magic.
“I want to know if these pieces of equipment have room for further modification here. If not, I’d like to entrust you with making new equipment.”
“Give up the modification.”
Palmer replied like a knife.
“How far are you going to roll these junks? stop making it easy Let them rest.”
“… … .”
Lennox sighed at Palmer, who seemed too absorbed in the gunslinger.
“I would love to, but… … Doesn’t that mean you can’t spend money on a brand new product that doesn’t make much of a difference?”
“Looking at it, it seems to be a product I bought from Gun & Barrel, but a firearm with better performance and superior efficiency will be a truck. What bullshit are you talking about?”
“It doesn’t make much of a difference to me if it’s an off-the-shelf product that has already been completed.”
“what?”
“If you need strong firepower, there are plenty of other means.”
As Lennok said that, he mobilized his magic and stamped his finger on the table.
saaaa… … .
The cold air that flowed from between the five fingers formed a clear shape in an instant and turned into a small statue.
The old man, who confirmed his familiar face in the statue made like that, made a blank expression.
“The important thing is not how much firepower I have, but how well it blends with the magic I use.”
The higher the level of Lennok’s magic, the greater the difference between the firepower created through pure magic and firearms.
If you decide to compare firepower, there are not many techniques that can be compared to pure elemental magic.
However, even if you do not compare in that way, there are many advantages to using firearms.
Rather, considering that fire magic is comparable to tactical weapons such as artillery fire and missiles, it is not a comparable target in the first place.
Compared to the pure magic formula, it consumes significantly less magic power. Abnormally fast attack speed and structure capable of rapid fire.
And to the fact that the difficulty of customizing to the user’s taste is relatively low.
If you mix well with Lennok’s assistive shooting magic, it is possible to create an attack pattern that surpasses most wizards’ spells.
The problem is that Lennok has never had equipment that matches his level.
Basically, the Horse Musketeer of WORLD 2.0 that Lennok was playing goes beyond using shooting magic, and both guns and bullets are thoroughly modified for magic.
Up until now, due to the circumstances, I had only been forcibly hitting normal firearms and bullets with assistive shooting magic, but now I should be able to get proper equipment through more thorough adjustments.
“Modifying magic and shooting it directly with a gun or giving a magic formula directly to bullets… … . I’ve tried both before, but I’ve never had much success.”
“I guess so. In the first place, a wizard like you wouldn’t turn his attention to other artifacts or even guns… … . It is proof that it is reckless.”
said Palmer.
“Basically, all materials that make up firearms must have some degree of magical conductivity, and at the same time, must have resistance to constant impact and heat. That alone would increase the difficulty and cost of production, but if you start customizing a certain amount of spells to hit the gun… … .”
“It must be difficult.”
“It might be much better to find a gun-type artifact or relic.”
“But doesn’t that sound like fun?”
Palmer fell silent and looked up at Lennok.
Confirming that Lennok was smiling faintly, he tilted his head slightly and said,
“you… … . You’ve changed a little bit. I didn’t know that fun would come out of your mouth.”
“It’s probably the strongest motivator for artisans like you.”
“… … .”
I think Lennok can understand a little bit now.
Motivation that does not move simply with efficiency and reason.
I do not understand with my head that such a thing is quite important in human life, but accept it with my heart.
Did Palmer even get a glimpse of that side of Lennok, who spoke such words without hesitation?
He grinned as he scratched his beard.
“What good. If the other guys asked for it, I’d kick their butt… … Thinking about making a firearm for a wizard like you would be pretty fun.”
“I’m glad.”
“Instead, the only thing I create is this one.”
As he said that, he raised the tattered revolver.
“Shotguns have a lot of parts to touch, and there are so few parts to touch other than pumping the power, so it’s not fun. I’m accepting this request because I insist on using an inefficient weapon called a revolver. Do you understand?”
“great.”
It wasn’t that Lennok had been using a revolver as a sidearm for nothing.
It was because I thought it was an optimized equipment to give different enchantments to each bullet, while the disadvantages of the revolver could be offset to a considerable extent by using auxiliary magic related to loading acceleration or rapid fire.
Until now, I had not seen any great merit in that area, but now that I have obtained alchemy, it is different.
There’s still a lot of work to be done, and there are countless ways Lennok can become stronger.
I had no intention of picking and choosing one of them.
To have the opportunity to choose itself.
That’s what Lennok meant by the way he decided to live.
* * *
– I received several nomination requests. What do you do?
“what does it mean?”
After finishing his errands, Lennok spent some time at the bar and left District 49.
It wasn’t common for Jenny to call after realizing that Lennok had left, belatedly, to ask about his intentions, but that must mean she’s been busier lately.
He seemed really unwilling to give up his brokering job, to ask Lennok about freelancing while he was concentrating on running the business.
-I forgot to tell you earlier because I was taking photos of the bounty, but there are some customers looking for you.
“As a customer… … ”
– Rumors seem to have spread properly in the past month.
A faint smile spread through her voice over the phone.
-The number of miscellaneous requests has drastically decreased, but the name value of customers has risen dramatically.
Does it mean that as Lennok’s reputation and status rose, only customers worthy of him began to make requests?
After thinking for a moment, Lennok shook his head.
“Please refuse all simple nomination requests. As I said before, I only want to accept requests related to space-time artifacts or magic.”
-Are you okay? Apart from other customers, I also got a direct call from Balitz.
“… … .”
Balitz Inc.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve heard that name.
Recently, there has been little to do with it, but isn’t it a huge conglomerate management group that has reached out and succeeded in the most businesses in this huge city by far?
Even in the midst of processing so many requests, if the person who hadn’t had a chance to meet now contacted them, there would be no doubt that a similar event and reward would be prepared.
Lennok hesitated for a moment, but then stopped when he felt the street scene slowly distort.
A somewhat unnatural watch.
In addition, as the sense of speed of the surroundings rapidly decreases, the sense of time fades.
Lennok knew this sensation. A heterogeneous landscape, as if the surroundings were left alone and only consciousness accelerated like crazy.
A harbinger of a monster running through another timeline.
Dou-wook!
Lennok, who forcibly twisted his neck to free himself from the interference, grabbed the phone and said,
“I’m hesitant about Balitz, but… … . I can’t. There is still work to be done.”
-… … what do you mean?
“Even if it seems like the work with the cartel is over, there is someone who intervened and played a decisive role.”
-… … .
“I didn’t expect to see you again already, but I’ll be sure to listen to what you’re thinking.”
It was only then that Jenny noticed something in Lennok’s words and spoke in a trembling voice.
-Wait a minute… … Who the hell are you now… … .
pop!!
“Your mouth is a little lighter than I thought.”
A voice came from right behind Lennok.
It’s a sullen tone that doesn’t have any special features, but it’s a tone that Lennok has never forgotten.
“If our story is spilled everywhere like that, then write it.”
“we?”
Lennok smiled as he turned the whale around to face him.
“That really doesn’t suit you or me at all.”
Appearance of unknown age. Somewhat bad manners.
Even though he is standing casually in the middle of the street, his complexion is so ordinary that it is impossible to guess his history at all.
Who could imagine the prestige of Pandemonium in this man, seeing this plain appearance in a black shirt and pants.
Myung looked at Lennok and grinned.
“It wasn’t a situation to talk about last time.”
“… … .”
“Shall we move for a moment?”
