Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Furnace (1)

Lennok looked at Zionis from the back and was lost in thought.

What is the reason for visiting Lennok, who was the first to hide his identity while disguising his identity, aside from Ibelin Marcia, who was the leader and supervisor of the party?

Considering that he first suggested sparring while mentioning the ice magic, you could say that he was genuinely burned with a sense of victory.

If so, I don’t understand Gionis’ reaction.

Unlike the senators who don’t show their faces, there must be a reason why they showed up here first… … .

While I was lost in thought, the crowds gathered in the practice area began to disperse one by one.

Some of the wizards who had followed him to assist him suddenly disappeared after him, but the murmur did not go away.

I can’t help it.

There is too little information given to determine Gionis’ intentions right away.

I accidentally competed with him, but I needed to gather some more information.

In addition, we need to find out how the demonic eye in the left eye, which was corrupted during the sparring with Zionis, works.

In the moment of the moment, as he felt that the scene of observation of the turning point he had set out as an image was being visualized, the problem of the magic eye that had changed immediately was also quite important.

Lennok let out a small sigh and turned his head to the wizard who had just been guiding him.

“It looks like you made a fuss unintentionally.”

“That is… … Contrary to the friendly attitude from before, the guide

hesitated to answer with an awkward expression.

A wizard who came as a guest from outside. How should I accept the fact that the ice wizard, who is difficult to use his strength properly in such an environment, competed with the tower owner’s direct disciple?

It was natural, in a way, to be careful with words and actions in front of a person with more than standard skills.

“I would like to see one last place. Could you guide me?”

“… … Where should I take you?”

“The largest library in the Mage Tower.”

Lennok turned his head and said with a grin.

“I want to visit the place with the most books.”

* * *

“Ohhhhh!!”

“… … .”

“Okay very good!! Yes, this is it!!”

Mouser, with an excited face, ran like mad, his beard shaking.

“I was just here to see this!!”

Evelyn stared blankly at the back of a stocky middle-aged man running wildly swinging his limbs.

I was worried about his safety, so I followed him, but anyway, she was also going to stop by once within three days.

Blaver Magic Tower located in the volcanic area.

It is the only advantage that old-fashioned wizards chose at the risk of such an inconvenient feature, and a facility that is difficult to find anywhere else.

The lowest floor of the screw-shaped tower.

There was a huge furnace that directly touched the deepest part of the volcano, corresponding to the boiling center, and utilized its mighty firepower for metal manufacturing.

A majestic pillar of fire whirling between three huge pillars.

It is by far the largest and hottest flame in the volcanic region of Claronis.

It is only natural that the lava, which is abnormally hot and boiling, is poured into metal brought from various places after a simple process.

Powerful natural energy mixed with lava flows into the metal as it is, and in an instant, with enormous heat, any metal is melted into a form that can be cast, and the melted metal is processed into the desired shape.

Metals that have been processed once through a furnace become much easier to care for than before, and when an external stimulus is applied here, their hardness and durability slowly increase.

Just by kneading the metal once through the furnace, external distribution becomes easier and the secondary processing is made smooth.

A gigantic brazier tower built by the lava of the volcanic area of Claronis and the Blaver Magic Tower with all their heart.

Nothing has been officially revealed as to what makes this possible.

However, there were not one or two places on this continent that kept such a secret.

The only thing that mattered to Mouser was the fact that a brazier appeared in front of him that was perfect for metalworkers.

Excitedly, he grabbed the wizards who were managing the furnace and began to ask him questions. While staring at him, he heard a familiar voice from behind.

“Is it okay if I just look at you?”

Evelyn inadvertently turned her head back and burst out laughing.

As Lennok walked out with a calm face, the area under his eyes was almost black.

“The shadows under my eyes have grown big. How hard have you been researching?”

“… … Stop doing research.”

Lennok, who rubbed his eyes with an embarrassing expression, replied.

A great library located in the central-dong of the Magic Tower. After looking through all the books there, I lost track of time and stayed up all night.

There weren’t many magic books that could help Lennok’s level right away, but the history of the Mage Tower and the records of their achievements were one of the great interests for Lennok, who had no great interaction with other wizards.

“You seem to be working harder than me, but have you finally made up your mind to join an agent?”

Lennok averted his gaze at the words of Evelyn, who smiled and teased him.

“It is true that the condition deteriorates easily. Be careful in the future.”

Although her condition has improved considerably, it is also true that the aftereffects of successfully imprinting images on her magnetic field have not yet gone away.

There was no particular problem in battles that simply used magical power, but if he overworked his body a little, the abnormal symptoms would be revealed.

Seeing Lennok like that, Eveline silently shook her head.

“Take care of yourself. The reaction of the Blaver Magic Tower is more favorable than I thought, but you never know what will happen.”

“Know. That’s why I’m looking at this in advance.”

Saying that, Lennok looked up at the giant furnace tower.

Dark red heat leaking from the inside. The heat flowing from the interior of the softly glowing tower spreads like a haze and obscures the view.

“Probably, a key facility that is treated with great care even in this gigantic mage tower… … The fact that it has been open to us so far will be of great significance in this matter.”

“… … “

I wonder how on earth the heat flow is controlled so that this amount of heat can be manipulated at will, but… … I don’t think they’ll tell you from there.”

It is the core resource of the facility, which accounts for by far the largest proportion among the external sources of income for the West Continental Branch of the Blaber Magic Tower.

It probably contains the essence of all the research and effort invested in the Magic Tower.

If I could interpret that, or if I could get the internal blueprint, it would be possible to use it in various ways.

Evelyn, who was looking at the thoughtful Lennok from the side with her hand over her left eye, shrugged her shoulders when a voice suddenly came from behind.

“Is the investigation going smoothly?”

It’s the same tone that Lennoch heard vividly the day before.

He walked into the furnace control room without hesitation.

Evelyn turned around and immediately recognized him and held out her hand.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen it in person. Sir Gionis.”

“Nice to meet you.”

He took off his gloves and shook hands with a nonchalant face.

“I’m sorry for revealing your face so late. There are a lot of problems that need to be dealt with inside the Mage Tower as well.”

“no. I understand.”

“In fact, that’s why we opened our internal facilities to guests in this way. Excluding the mages who are currently managing functions within the tower, everyone is working hard to catch up.”

“It seems that the work with Pandemonium was that tough.”

Before answering, Gionis looked up at the hearth that Mouser was watching.

“Would you believe it if this very furnace came to the brink of being occupied?”

“… … .”

“With just two people, they broke through the Mage Tower’s strict guard and took control of the control room that was managing the furnace in an instant. If we were a little late, the whole furnace would have exploded and the mage tower would have disappeared.”

Even as he talked about how the Mage Tower, which boasted a long history, was about to be defeated, Gionis’ expression didn’t change at all.

“okay. so… … .”

Evelyn nodded quietly.

This was the reason why the Blaber Mage Tower didn’t specifically mention the conflict with the Pandemonium.

Wouldn’t it be wrong to hastily announce to the outside that the control of the furnace, one of the core facilities of the Mage’s tower, could have been taken away and that it might have exploded due to failure in control?

It is a really big problem that the control and security of the furnace have been breached once.

If this fact were revealed to the outside world, the Mage Tower’s stock price and business prospects would inevitably be drastically reduced.

“I succeeded in blocking the system by blowing up the engine room, but… … . Most of them are bedridden because they used the mana of all the members of the Senate.”

Was that the reason why the senate didn’t show up? It was clear that it was an impeccable reason, at least on the surface.

When the two showed signs of understanding to some extent, Gionis paused slightly before continuing.

“So, I’d like to offer you a deal.”

“transaction… … Are you talking?”

“yes.”

he said in a cold voice.

“Recently, unknown caves have been discovered one after another outside the Magic Tower.”

“that… … .”

Isn’t that the cave that Mouser was talking about?

Evelyn put on an expression that seemed to guess something, and Gionis immediately said.

“The Senate suspects that this might be the tunnel that the Pandemonium side dug to infiltrate the Mage Tower. If that speculation is true, we should secure the route they created at all costs.”

“… … .”

“If you don’t mind, could Marcia-nim investigate the tunnels over there? I am concerned that if the pandemonium left traces or risk factors remain, it will hinder future visits by outsiders.”

Gionis spoke calmly.

“Originally, this is a problem that the members of the Senate, including me, would have to solve on their own… … It is difficult for me to go out alone because of the public gaze.”

“So you want to lend a hand from us now?”

“Of course, I am not speaking with my bare mouth. You can’t just leave the dirty work to the customer.”

However, Evelyn just pretended to think for a moment and immediately shook her head.

“sorry.”

“… … .”

“Since the leadership has given you permission to view the Magic Tower facilities, I want to focus on the investigation within the Tower during the deadline.”

No wonder.

As Zionis said, if the pandemonium really invaded the furnace control room, wouldn’t it be possible to find traces of the pandemonium inside the tower without having to investigate the cave near the volcanic area?

Unless it was a fairly unconventional price, there was no need to share power from Evelyn’s point of view.

“Is that so… … . then.”

The very moment when Gionis, who had sighed lightly, was about to say something.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

A deafening roar rang out, and a huge shockwave swept all over the place.

“Aaaaaaaaaaa!!”

“Toneeeee!!”

Desperate screams and shouts calling someone desperately.

All three gazed simultaneously toward the furnace below the control room.

The iron door of the furnace, which had been tightly closed, was wide open, and a huge amount of flames were spraying in all directions like rockets.

A wizard who was concentrating on management in front of the iron gate was swept away by the spray flame, and his flesh and muscles evaporated in an instant and disappeared.

The moment when the other wizards panicked when they witnessed the horror of a colleague from the same mage tower evaporating whole.

Eveline moved first.

Like a flash war, she jumped down to the bottom of the control room and threw the fallen wizards upwards in an instant to avoid the flames of the brazier that spread indiscriminately in all directions.

Soon after, Lennok, realizing her intentions, created an icy road in the air and slid the injured wizards into the control room.

The slide made of ice melted in an instant from the immense heat, but it was enough for a short time.

“Aaaaa!! Aaaaa!!”

“Ahaaaaa!!”

“Turn it off!!”

It is said that the greatest pain that humans can feel is death by burns.

Wizards who have been by their side dealing with flames for their entire lives cannot escape from the pain.

“Call the medical team immediately and contact the power room!!”

Gionis, with a stiff expression, shouted at the nearby wizards.

“It can be stopped only when the mana source directed to the furnace is cut off. in action!!”

“late. We will have to move right now.”

muttered Lennok as he tossed off the glove he was wearing.

I don’t know why the furnace suddenly malfunctioned, but if it couldn’t be stopped right away, it wouldn’t be strange if the entire central wing of the Magic Tower collapsed.

“We need to stop the flames spewing out of the furnace for a moment and close the door. Otherwise, the damage will only increase.”

“… … Let me manipulate the direction of the fire in the furnace. We should do everything we can.”

Gionis immediately jumped out of the control room, raising his mana.

Lennok also sprinted down the stairs and immediately began making hand signs.

Evelyn, who had neatly evacuated the other wounded in that moment, came down behind Lennok and whispered.

“Can you do half?”

“The only thing that can stop it is for a moment.”

Lennok replied.

“Considering the heat and concentration of magic you feel, 30 seconds after the iron door closes… … . Inside it, cut off the furnace’s power source and have Zionis control the furnace’s flames to make it worthwhile.”

“okay.”

Eveline answered while slowly lowering her posture on the spot.

“I will close the door, so please follow me.”

“The heat is going to be really great. Would you be okay without any equipment?”

Eveline answered without hesitation.

“well… … If that firepower continues to come out, the central building might turn to ashes. If you don’t want to die, you should stop it.”

“… … good.”

After replying, Lennok closed his left eye and covered it with his hand.

When he opened his eyes again, Lennok’s pupils were dyed a vivid purple.
