Genius Warlock-Episode 101
After signing the contract and officially being able to use it, Oliver started by organizing his room..
2Fortunately, the living space on the first floor was equipped with a small bathroom and toilet.,
According to people, there are countless houses without these two..
In addition, there was only one room, a bed, a small refrigerator that ran on magic stone fuel, and a desk..
Suddenly, Oliver thought that maybe Murphy had deliberately saved him a good place out of consideration for him..
"Well, he's a kind person..”
Oliver muttered, taking out his gluttonous bag and taking out the luggage he had bought at the market..
The only luggage I had was a blanket, a pillow, a hanger for storing clothes, and simple snacks as daily necessities, but I didn't really need anything more than this..
After completing some light cleaning, such as laying out the blanket, moving the desk, and putting food in the refrigerator, Oliver said:.
"It's just right.”
Then I went straight down to the basement..
From here is the main.
Oliver took out the huge glutton bag again and made it spit out its load..
“Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr”
The glutton suddenly cried in dissatisfaction..
Well, is it obvious? From the market until now, I have been working continuously..
Oliver took out a small gluttonous bag, forced it into his mouth, and took out 10,000 Randa..
The glutton's eyes sparkled when he saw the fluttering banknotes..
"Can't you eat this and relax??”
Then came the response. A different reaction than expected.
"...? Gurgling-! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Grumble! Wow!”
Surprisingly, the big glutton made gestures like a human and said something..
Does the fact that the bigger you are, the more rebellious you are, mean that your intelligence and self-consciousness are stronger??
However, what was even more surprising was that he could vaguely understand what the glutton was saying..
I didn't know what the principle was..
"uh..… . Would you like to give it a name other than glutton? properly?”
“Wow-! Grumble!”
"....That's interesting. I guess I'll have to ask the person who made it later... Well, how about Big Mouth? Because your mouth is big."
The gluttonous pouch flapped his hands. It seems like he likes it.
“Grumble? Grumble!”
"I'm glad you like it. Well, I don't need this, so I put it back.-”
"-Grumble! Grumble!”
"ah… . You need money too?”
"-Grumble! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
After eating the 10,000 Randa that Oliver gave me, I became a glutton... . No, Big Mouth started throwing up the stuff he bought again..
There was more furniture and equipment for the basement than for the second floor accommodations. Most of them were purchased from gray markets, not traditional markets..
An operating table and movable shelf for lying down the corpse doll, and various materials needed for repairing and remodeling the corpse doll were arranged neatly on the ship. In addition, flasks and flask cases for storing emotions, mixing devices for experiments, and other experimental tools were placed..
Instead of stopping there, we changed locations several times to find the most efficient structure, and a whole day passed like that..
The next day, Oliver had a light meal of bread, milk, and apples that he had already bought at the market, and then immediately started working on the corpse doll..
During the battle with the truck robbers, it was confirmed that it was successfully repaired, but it looked clumsy at times when moving.,
Oliver changed out of his work clothes, laid the corpse doll down on the laboratory table, disassembled the defective part, and checked for any problems..
I untangled the tendons and applied oil between the processed bones, checking the book every now and then to make sure I was doing it right..
Fortunately, it seemed like I was doing it right..
“phew… .. It’s a little difficult..”
Oliver said, wiping the sweat from his forehead..
Touching a real corpse doll took a lot of physical strength, but doing it alone felt a bit difficult..
It seems like it would be easy with just one helping hand..
‘hmm… .. Shall we make a corpse doll to help me? Since you have to use strength, a male would be better, and two or three together would be better. Since I have to help with various experiments, it's good to have multiple arms. I have to give the head, so should I make more children?.’
Oliver thought about this and turned his head to the table in the corner..
There were test tubes containing Child-First, Second, Third, and False, and judging by his emotional state, he seemed to be hungry..
Oliver extracted the stored emotions and vitality, mixed them, and gave them to Child in an appropriate amount.,
Child, who looked like a meatball exhaling black smoke, happily ate the emotions and vitality Oliver gave him, making a chomping sound..
‘The level of completion is higher than expected..’
Child imitates the puppet's artificial soul..
To be exact, it was a kind of upgraded version that guessed the production method of artificial souls and applied them to minions.,
I was a little embarrassed because I tried to do it with the intention of failing half the time..
Obviously, at first it was just a clumsy artificial soul, but perhaps because it combined with a minion, it had a desire to survive..
The proof is that he whined that he was hungry..
As a semi-experiment, Oliver fed him his emotions and vitality, and has been raising him like that ever since..
As a result, approximately three types of information were obtained:.
The first was that if you fed them a certain amount of life force and emotions, the child would not disappear and would continue to be maintained. They seemed to know this, so when they were hungry, they asked Oliver to give them emotions and life force..
Second, even though he expressed his opinion, he never resisted Oliver..
As an experiment, I didn't give him emotions and vitality for an entire day, leaving him to the point of weakness. Surprisingly, he didn't get angry even when he signaled that he was hungry..
It was the same as Minion..
But I didn't know it was because my ego and intelligence were still low..
Surprisingly, as Child's survival time increased by eating life force and emotions, his ego became stronger and his intelligence also increased, and he was now able to distinguish between circles, triangles, and squares..
Maybe if they keep growing it, they might have an intelligence similar to that of a human..
Oliver was curious..
Will he still follow me then? Even if I didn't follow and rebelled, I thought it would be fun in its own way..
Oliver finished feeding Child and then took care of the corpse doll again..
We've already fixed all the parts that were wrong, and even completed a simple test. Next, we started remodeling..
For example, the surprise effect was increased by adding additional razors and daggers to the limbs of the 'rag' doll that Third entered.,
Not only did I apply black magic to the blade, but I also added a paralytic drug I bought from the gray market..
They said it wasn't fatal, but it seemed like it could double the effect of Exhaustion..
In addition, the 'swordsman', who wields a saber with three arms, is equipped with a small shotgun and two small single-shot guns to add surprise long-distance attacks.,
‘The ‘Black Wizard’ corpse doll was given two more arms so that it could use multiple black magic spells at once..
The number of tanks that store emotions was also increased to increase combat sustainability and firepower..
‘A dispersion device that sprays tear gas in all directions when an enemy approaches and a spring-loaded knife that pops out in a surprise attack were added to the 'sniper'..
Thanks to this, I spent quite a bit of the compensation I received from the contaminated area, but I was still quite proud when I finished the work..
It was then.
Beep one beep one beep one
I heard a beep.
The sound came from the direct communication device that Forrest had given him, and Oliver turned on the beetle-shaped communication device and held it to his ear..
[dave?]
It was Forrest's voice. That's the serious voice that comes out while working.
"Yes, Forrest..”
[Do you have time? I wish I could see your face… . I have something that might interest you..]
***
Oliver moved right away..
Anyway, all the urgent things were done..
Plus, I needed to make money now..
But it didn't just move.
First, Oliver took away valuables such as important books, corpse dolls, and children, and left the items that he did not care about being stolen in the warehouse.,
Before I came out, I left the minion that fed Las Boom in the basement..
If an intruder comes, blow yourself up..
After cleaning up after himself, Oliver arrived in front of Forest's restaurant office..
Knock – Knock –
"Please come in."
As soon as permission was given, Oliver opened the door..
There was Forrest, well dressed as usual, and Miss Coco..
Jeong Bo-sang, who ran into Oliver once or twice and had a brief conversation with him..
I knew she had business with Forrest, but this was my first time seeing her like this, and I instinctively knew she was involved in the important thing Forrest had mentioned..
"Welcome.’’
"hello? Forrest.”
"oh. It's fun.”
When Oliver and Forrest were talking as usual, Coco joined in and laughed as if it was fun..
“....Why are you doing that??”
"Oh, sorry… .. It's just the hottest problem solver here these days, and it's so much the same as when I first saw it.."
"Is it bad??”
"Not at all. Quite the opposite. That's great. Because it means maintaining your original intention. Most people can't do that. Especially men.”
Her enigmatic words remained the same, but even so, Oliver could tell that she wasn't just talking empty words..
I could see her emotions.
She was satisfied with Oliver's attitude and was looking forward to it..
I don't know what the expectations were, but it didn't seem like a bad feeling..
Forrest put order..
"If it's okay, can you sit down first??”
Oliver sat down immediately as he was told..
"As I told you in advance, I've called you because of some business. I'm sorry to call you on your break, but it's time to get back to work, so I hope you understand.."
"No, thanks. I think the same thing... .. But what's going on? It seems like a pretty important thing..”
Coco intervened..
"While men are talking, can this rude young lady say something??”
Forrest willingly handed it over. This makes it clear.
The important thing was that Miss Coco brought it..
"First of all, before we get into the actual story, I have one question..”
"...?"
"If a woman asks a question, a gentleman should answer it..”
"what is a gentleman?”
"...? Are you kidding me??”
"Surprisingly, Dave doesn't mess around. I mean all of this.”
Forrest spoke as if he knew because he had experienced it..
After hearing the answer, Coco spoke again.
"ha..… . It means a man with culture and manners. Strong, brave and kind to women.”
"I'm not particularly strong, brave, or kind.?”
"does not matter. Nowadays, it just refers to a man with a lot of money. Money is courage and strength... . Please don't say any more than that. I'm just saying this out of courtesy..”
Oliver was about to say that he didn't have much money, but Coco quickly shut him up..
She smiled tiredly.
"ha..… . Who are your customers so far??”
"hmm… .. Magic Lab, Gang, Poetry etc..”
"The magic lab was hunting and capturing chimeras, and the city was cleaning up contaminated areas... . It's a bit ambiguous to call both of them official clients. In that case, Mr. Dave's only formal clients are the gang. Crime Firm Gang.”
Oliver looked at Forrest..
Forrest shook his head as if he hadn't said anything, which was true..
"There are no secrets in this city. If you poke around a little, you can find out everything indirectly. Thanks to that, I make a living..”
"Incredible.”
"Yes, that's great. That's why I know that Dave collects books related to black magic and the devil.."
"Sorry, that's what I said..”
Forrest volunteered. Coco was supportive..
"Don't blame Forest too much. When I gathered information about Dave's business, I asked for it in return..”
"My information?”
"Yes, information gathers information. So now I can write it like this.”
Coco grinned..
"Let's ask another question. You are slowly building a reputation as a problem solver. Have you achieved the goal you wanted??”
Oliver was worried..
I had fun, unexpected experiences, and gained unique knowledge by reading several books, but....…?
It wasn't true that the original goal was achieved..
"no.”
"of course. What Dave is looking for are valuable items that I also only hear about once in a while. Unless you're a big name, it's hard to get in touch with them... .. What would you think if you could get a book about the devil?.”
devil.
The moment he heard those words, Oliver thought of the old man on a horse he saw during the battle with Joseph, the numerous unknown patterns, and the entrance to hell seen through the mouth of the puppet..
Oliver answered.
"It's good.”
