Drug-Eating Genius Mage

Chapter 32



After the meeting with Madam, the cleanup proceeded quickly.

From the moment Sebastian realized that Lennok had secured the blueprints, everything involved was done in an instant.

“Thank you very much.”

The one who came to Sebastian’s office early in the morning and bowed his head was the man who was currently delegating the position of vice president of Auterble.

He bowed his head to Lennok while expressing his gratitude with a sincere attitude, as if he were going to remove his liver.

“If it wasn’t for the half-mage, Madison would have opened her eyes and taken away the results of the project. The wizard prevented the efforts of all the staff at Otable, including me, from almost turning into futility overnight.”

In fact, if the blueprints were leaked, it would have caused such damage, so it’s not wrong.

Sebastian put the original blueprint in the vice president’s arms and gently tapped him on the shoulder.

“I am really glad that things went well. I couldn’t hide how rewarding I felt every time I took on a job like this.”

“If it wasn’t for Sebastian-nim, how could we have known about this? I never thought that Madison would betray me like this… Thank you very much for not forgetting our relationship with the head office.”

Lennok looked up at the Vice President’s face with a bored expression, responding like a ghost to Sebastian’s skillful appeal to his share.

I knew it was necessary, so I couldn’t help it.

What a broker does is bound to be the process of dealing with people in this way.

“I hope you can tell the boss well about this matter.”

“of course. He said he was busy taking care of this matter, but he said he would definitely create a place sooner or later. Maybe you can look forward to it.”

“Heh heh heh!! I didn’t want that, but…”

Sebastian’s smile did not disappear until he saw the vice president out of the office.

He thought it would be a good enough gain if he could deepen his relationship with the president of Ottoble through this incident.

It took him some time to calm his excitement and sit down across from Lennok.

“Sorry for the excitement. To be honest, it wasn’t easy to make friends with the people involved in Ottoble. Because of having quite a strong investor behind it, it had a considerable influence on the market, but the exchange was relatively small. Getting acquainted with people in the automobile business through this is a pretty big step forward.”

“Right.”

Sebastian immediately changed the subject at Lennok’s plaintive reply.

“You said something boring. Was there anything else you were curious about? I have gathered all the necessary materials.”

Having said that, he very casually pulled out a file folder from the bottom of the table and handed it to Lennok.

“As I picked out companies with severe internal politics and collected information, I immediately knew where the information of the company you wanted was located. Watch and listen.”

As Lennok said, he immediately turned over the files.

As Sebastian said, as soon as I opened the cover, all I could see was the story of Dyke Corporation.

Already at the same time as he was gathering information, he figured out that Lennok wanted information about Dyke.

A brief summary of the company. Information on the man who currently sits as president and introduction of the board members under him.

And even a picture of Panoa, the planning team leader.

Sebastian opened his mouth as he watched Lennok turn over the paper.

“The Dyke Company, which reached its heyday by manufacturing industrial tools, is currently facing a major internal crisis. In the process of inheriting the stake after the previous president retired in disgrace, the successor who newly took over management wants to push out the board of directors who have occupied the position for a long time.”

“…You mean a battle for initiative?”

“yes. However, in order for the new president to gain the consent of the shareholders, he will need outstanding performance, so I thought of expanding the business base to the 40th district, starting with Panoa. Pioneering a new market always returns with explosive sales, so if you succeed properly, you will be able to hold the direction key for that huge company at once.”

“And the board members aren’t going to sit back and watch it.”

It wasn’t uncommon on Earth, so it wasn’t difficult to understand.

“You understand quickly. That’s right. The board of directors, who had the existing power, minimized support for the project and applied strong pressure. The few employees who decided to cooperate with Panoa at the risk of conflict with the board of directors are the only strength of the current project.”

Wasn’t the reason why Dyke left the wide talent pool and hired freelancers from the underworld simply for a just cause?

If so, I can understand why Panoa picked up and used manpower in such a way.

It’s probably because they lacked even the bare minimum support to weed out these people.

‘As expected… it’s definitely different from when you look at it from the outside.’

I think it was good to find Sebastian again.

Without this information, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything other than simply suspect Dyke’s lack of ability.

I don’t intend to understand the fact that the strategy was poorly organized, but at least it confirms the fact that Lennok can take a stronger lead than now in the relationship between Dyke and Lennok.

And that was by no means bad news for Lennok now.

It meant that even if Lennok demanded more from Dyke than now, Dyke would not be able to refuse it.

Lennok, who finished his calculations quickly, immediately rose from his seat.

“Thanks for the explanation.”

“Are you planning to go already?”

“If you have the file, you can replace the rest of the explanation with this. I have work to do now.”

As Lennok said, he grabbed the file in his hand and shook it.

Sebastian looked at Lennok leaving the office with a puzzled look on his face.

“Do you remember the design of the bike you got?”

“……what?”

“I handed over the original to Otable, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t make a copy in the process.”

“……..”

“If you think of it, come visit me again.”

Did he even notice that Lennok was starting to take an interest in it?

The brokers were sharp enough to point out whether they were really quick-witted or had a good sense.

Instead of replying, Lennok gave a smile and walked out of Sebastian’s office.

The information obtained in return for accepting Sebastian’s request this time was substantial.

Of course, the benefits Sebastian saw in the process were considerable, but it was a level that could be taken into account for a smooth relationship in the future.

I don’t know how Sebastian eavesdropped on Dyke’s internal circumstances, but if he was able to document and bring this much information in a short time, there’s plenty of reason to keep in touch with him.

The ability to accurately find the correct answer with only fragmentary information leaked and the skill to neatly extract the internal affairs of the company that Lennok was curious about.

It is said that he is doing business with corporate executives or wealthy individuals, and his know-how is unquestionably skillful.

If Jenny had the advantage of making connections and getting requests from all kinds of places, regardless of corporate mercenary gangs and brokers, Sebastian had a much deeper insight and insight about that side as the customer base was biased.

Contrary to the first impression, the ability itself is very impressive. At least during the war of nerves with Dyke, there was no doubt that he was a talented person to be close to.

Lennok thought so and headed straight to Jenny’s bar.

All necessary information has been gathered. All that was left was to put an end to the dreaded negotiations with Dyke.

Lennok,

who went straight to the bar, asked her to make a copy of the file Sebastian had given her and briefly explained what had happened.

It was because he knew very well that it would be more convenient in many ways to negotiate with Dyke officially through her.

Just as Lennox thought, a confident smile appeared on Jenny’s lips after hearing the circumstances.

It’s beyond my expectations.”

“………”

“I recommended it just in case, but I didn’t expect it to come with such good information. Even if only half of the internal disputes described here are true, Panoa will never be able to refuse this condition.”

“How much exactly?”

“Hmm… to the point where I don’t need to put any conditions in the first place. If we set the line first, the other side will rather like it. In this case, it is better to make an appointment without saying anything about the price. There is a high probability that you will get scared and pay a much higher price than you originally expected.”

Sebastian’s ability was also outstanding, but Jenny’s insight was also so good that it made me feel like my head was spinning.

Lennok was immediately convinced.

“Then, can we send a similar message to Dyke?”

“It is enough to inform the head office of the appointment time and visit it. The rest will be prepared on your own. Remember only the minimum price you thought of, and if the stake offered by Panoa falls short of that level, you can break the game without any regrets.”

Seeing Jenny finish his sentence, Lennox nodded and stood up.

“Then ask me to send a message to Dyke. Originally, I had no intention of working, but suddenly overworked myself… I think I need to rest a bit more.”

After trying too hard to dig out the internal affairs of Dyke, his body was tired.

As the bruise on his abdomen had not gone away yet, he had some restrictions on movement, so he thought of taking a little more rest than usual.

At that time, Jordon, who had been listening quietly with his arms crossed next to Jenny, suddenly opened his mouth.

“Where is the worst?”

“……There is no particular problem.”

“I hear you’ve been very tired lately.”

Lennox looked at Jenny in silence.

Who else could tell a story like this to Jordan?

Even if I knew it was worrying, it was useless.

Sure enough, she twitched her mouth and averted her gaze.

“Because I’m a little scared to tell you not to look at me that way.”

The words coming out of the mouth of a woman who doesn’t seem to be upset even if a bomb explodes right in front of her eyes are unreliable.

Eventually, Lennox let out a sigh and nodded slightly.

“Well… isn’t it common for sorcerers to accumulate mental fatigue? It is part of that.”

Of course, considering Lennok’s mental strength and magical aptitude, it would be unlikely that he would be burdened by such a thing except right after the battle, but telling him directly was another matter.

Lennok still didn’t trust Jordan and Jenny that much, and he didn’t want to reveal his condition to others.

It is not simply a matter of mental or spiritual talent that has been stamped with magical talent to the end.

The talent of the amount of innate magical power is, if you have to question it, the talent of the body, and the ability to feel the magical power well and raise it quickly cannot be said to have no role in the body.

Even if this precarious glass-crystal-like body wants to be replaced right away, it must be a vessel to accommodate the magical talent contained within.

Lennok never wanted to reveal himself through the piece.

At least after being much stronger than now.

Even if you reveal your talent to some extent, it should be enough to guarantee safety.

Jordan, who was staring at Lennok’s face, spoke again.

“It’s a bruise.”

“……….yes?”

“Below the right belly. Maybe after being crushed by a strong shock? Strangely, I thought it was a problem with my legs because I thought my gait was uncomfortable, but it wasn’t. Even the sitting posture is awkward.”

This time, Lennok was completely at a loss for words.

Even with a completely unexpected sharp point, Jordan’s words continued.

“The disturbed breathing is probably part of that. I deliberately move my right thigh so as not to show it, but the pain has dulled my senses and the direction of my foot is slightly twisted. The more conscious you are, the more awkward your gait will be.”

“……I heard that you are a doctor, but it is just as you said. Can you guess those symptoms just by looking at their appearance?”

“If you try to save and kill a lot, there are things you will learn at some point… Wait a minute.”

After saying that, Jordan went up to the second floor of the bar and came down with a small box that could fit in his hand and handed it to Lennok.

“It’s a potion patch made with medicinal ingredients that are effective in treating internal injuries. For the price, the effect is excellent. The pain caused by blood bruising should be gone in no time.”

Did you even notice that you already had bruises?

Lennok, a little dumbfounded, took the medicine Jordan was handing him.

“thank you. How much is the price…”

“The price of the alcohol I got here alone would be over 3 million cells, so why bother counting that? Don’t hesitate, just accept it.”

“………”

Looking back, it wasn’t wrong again, so Lennok calmly put the medicine into his arms.

It wasn’t something to overcomplicate.

It would be enough to accept it as a goodwill to maintain a good cooperative relationship in the future.

The only thing that intrigued him was that Jordan’s eyes were much sharper than Lennok had thought.

Lennok nodded, ignoring Jenny’s winking beside him.

Jenny said after him as he left the bar.

“I’ll contact you after making an appointment with Dyke, so get some rest. You worked hard today too.”

“……”

Come to think of it, half a year has already passed since I started working with her.

At first, I thought it was a nest that I could move at any time, but I was dragging the relationship that had been connected by chance for a long time.

Could it be that they have become a relationship where they can not only work with each other, but also ask how they are doing?

It was absurd for Lennok himself to give meaning to such a thing, but Lennok was convinced on the one hand.

After all, humans are creatures that cannot live alone.

It is natural to want to trust and rely on someone.

It’s just that Lennok’s current position, which has to take that obvious thing for granted, is wrong.

let’s go back home

You need to reduce unnecessary thoughts and focus on the future.

Within two days at least, I had to put an end to the tug-of-war with Dyke.
