Genius Warlock-Episode 293
Many wizards from the Moirai school, including Albert, surrounded the World Tree log, injected magical power into it, and examined the stored information..
The armed troops who filled the area around the forest watched in silence, tensed..
That’s right, Article 3… … . To be exact, it was a matter of 3,130.255 trillion won..
Considering the political and social impact, the weight was infinitely heavy..
The city might have lost its status as a free city to the Central Council due to its lax management, and the Crime Firm and Sisterhood might also have become entangled with Sheamus and faced an untimely disaster..
Of course, Pinkman was not directly involved, but given the size of the job, he couldn't help but be nervous..
‘There are some people who think differently.’
thought Oliver as he looked at some Pinkman executives..
They had somewhat calculating feelings..
Just as I was contemplating whether or not to tell my employer, Carver, the wizards of the Moirai school suddenly stopped logging in..
It looked a bit tired, perhaps due to the large amount of information stored..
“How is it?”
Carver, a city official, approached them and asked:.
As Oliver said, he was asking if there were any traces of dark money from Enjoyment other than the location of the money Seamus had stolen from the log..
Albert wiped the sweat slightly from his forehead, looked at Oliver, and nodded slowly..
“……yes. As Dave told us, there are secret passwords required for the bearer bankbook and the secret safe where the bankbook is stored. … . It's neatly organized..”
Albert answered with questions, admiration, and the fear of the unknown as if he were facing an unfamiliar being..
It was all about Oliver..
“Oh my god... … . Thank you for saving Landa..”
Carver must have been truly relieved, as he made the sign of the cross, shining with the faith that remained faintly in his heart..
“……Do you have that too? It's a sign that another enjoyment scammed me..”
Surprisingly, Carver felt an extreme emotional gap, including anxiety, fear, crisis, and relief, all in less than one night. Even though he was tired, he regained his enthusiasm and tried to grasp the cards in his hand..
Albert looked at Oliver and nodded slowly, just like before..
“yes… … . The traces of fraudulent schemes and related funds carried out overseas by a druid named Craig and other enjoyment druids are roughly summarized..”
As soon as he heard the confirmation, Carver pushed his fatigue aside and busily turned his head..
His emotions were complicated and flashed quickly, filled with joy at achieving results that exceeded expectations and a sense of calculation to take advantage of them..
As time passed, doubts and questions began to creep in..
Carver looked at Oliver, and Oliver looked at Carver and asked.
“hmm… … . Is there any problem?”
“Yes, I don’t think there is one… … . Thank you very much. Mr. Dave. Landa owes you a great debt. It's really amazing, thank you.”
Carver's gratitude and fear towards Oliver. Even though I was confused and had many conflicting emotions, I greeted them politely..
I could say it was a good choice. I had so many questions about Oliver, but the most important thing was that I was able to succeed in this mission thanks to Oliver..
“I was just doing my job..”
Carver shook his head. I mean it sincerely..
“no. This is truly amazing and deserves our thanks. It's amazing that you succeeded in completing the mission on your own, but you obediently stayed put even though you knew the whereabouts of the three trillion won... … . It must have been a difficult act, but Landa received great help from you twice..”
“Because it's not my money... … . Anyway, thank you for your words..”
Oliver spoke his honest thoughts without being humble or showing off..
3It's one thing that Joe has a lot of money, and the fact that he wants to keep it by breaking his promise is another thing..
However, quite a few people, including a gangster with a submachine gun, a pink man armed with magic equipment, and the head of the security department, who did not agree with that idea, looked at Oliver with a feeling of incomprehension that they could not possibly understand..
It was a completely normal reaction.
3The money was an amount that could be obtained by selling not only one's conscience but also one's humanity..
In the first place, everyone on this floor was there for money..
However, when I saw someone who had the opportunity and ability to take care of that kind of money but didn't take care of it, it wasn't strange to feel not only frustrated but also suspicious that something was going on..
Carver calmed his racing heart and spoke to Oliver again. Be polite and careful.
“If you don't mind, I would like to help you later when checking the information from that World Tree log.-”
“-Hey Mr. Carver.?”
One of the middle-aged wizards of the Moirai school intervened..
He appeared relaxed on the outside, but on the inside he was filled with doubts and nervousness. In particular, the feeling of nervousness was particularly evident..
"……Yes, Mr. Gary.?”
The middle-aged wizard's name seemed to be Gary..
“If you don't mind, can we have a word? We have our jobs too.”
Carver seemed to have remembered it too late, 'Ah... … He let out an exclamation and then nodded his head..
The Moirai School was not just an employee, but was closer to a business partner who briefly joined hands with the city to obtain what each other needed..
Trudging. Trudging. Trudging. Gary, a middle-aged wizard, approached Oliver..
In terms of the atmosphere, he seemed to be the highest rank among the wizards who came here..
“hello? Mr. Dave. My name is Gary Hess, a master of the Moirai School. Formally greetings..”
“hello. Hi Gary. My name is Dave, the troubleshooter from Area T. Nice to meet you..”
“Yes, nice to meet you too. I've heard of Dave's reputation... … . Let's get straight to the point. You said earlier that you asked someone to dig up information about Sheamus. What was it? Did that being organize the data over there like that??”
Gary Hess called it a being, not a person.
In addition, the emotional state was closer to confirmation of a prediction rather than a question of doubt..
“yes."
“what… … . Did you do that like that? What did you ask for??”
“hmm… … . Eve?”
“Do you know Eve??”
Albert, who was standing behind Gary, asked with wide eyes. He was surprised. That too very much.
Oliver observed the reaction and commented appropriately..
“well… … ? She called herself Eve. I don't think I'm sure though..”
Oliver said, recalling the moment he connected to the World Tree..
After defeating Sheamus, I connected to the World Tree out of curiosity and entered an empty world as black as the night sky, where there was no sky or land..
Oliver found a being tied up there..
A mass of energy mixed with countless magical powers, some emotions, and the power of nature..
It was formless, and to the extent that it was formless, it was unstable..
He didn't know specifically what he was, and only knew the name Eve, which was probably given to him by the druids..
‘Eve. A name that appears in the book [World Tree Evolution] given to me by my elder. An artificial will or ego that arises when an excessive amount of information is accumulated and accumulated and a singularity emerges. It hasn't been discovered yet, but there's a good chance it will happen, so we all decided to call it Eve. Both wizards and druids.’
In the book, Eve climbed the world tree one level… … . I guessed that it might be something that would allow me to utilize a few more steps, and I talked about how great the possibilities would be.,
Perhaps that's why the druids thoroughly restrained Eve, fearing she might be missed. Even using machines that do not fit their ideology and pride..
However, it seemed like a mistake.
Perhaps because of her imprisonment, Eve became extremely vicious and refused to listen to anyone..
“so how did you do it?”
Moirai School Gary asked without even acting calm..
“I released you.”
"......."
Everyone was silent, including Gary..
Close your mouth and open your eyes wide enough to have four hundred eyes..
I couldn't tell the person's expression, but it looked quite serious. In fact, his emotional state was quite serious..
With shock, doubt, anger, etc..
Gerida asked again.
“I beg your pardon?”
“They said they released it.”
“……why?”
“hmm… … . It looks very uncomfortable?”
Oliver answered after much thought..
In reality, Eve, who was tied up by the druid, was tied up like prey caught by a spider, and even though she was a shapeless mass of energy, she looked extremely frustrated..
Oliver thought it was a reasonable reason, but Gary seemed to disagree and grabbed Oliver's shoulders..
Rather than saying there was any intention, it was closer to something I caught instinctively because I couldn't control my emotions..
“It looks uncomfortable... … ? They just released Eve for that reason.??!!”
“I didn't just release it.”
"......??"
“As a condition of being released, I asked you to find the information on the World Tree log over there, organize it, and transfer it... … . Some kind of deal for a mission.-”
“-That's what I'm saying now!!”
Gary, who was holding Oliver's shoulders tightly, could not control his emotions and grabbed Oliver by the collar..
He felt a great sense of loss and regret over losing Eve, and at the same time, he felt even more anger, resentment, and hatred toward Oliver, the culprit..
“this… … . It doesn't look good though?”
Joe intervened, grabbing Gary's arm, which was holding Oliver by the collar..
Perhaps thanks to an exclusive deal with Crime Firm, the ruler of Landa's shadow, he is much more polite than in the past..
It wasn't my intention at all, but.
‘Why are you angry??’
Oliver looked at Joe's emotions and had a question..
“How dare you, you bastard- huh?!”
Joe tightened his hand with as much anger and displeasure as Gary, and Gary felt the pain of his hand shrinking due to the strength of his grip..
Feeling a physical threat, Gary used his magic power to shake off Joe's hand and tried to cast a spell. Joe also did not stop and skillfully wrapped himself in a black suit and black armor like armor..
Almost as intimidating as an exoskeleton armor. Joe seemed to have continued training without Oliver, not only increasing his proficiency in his techniques but also improving his use to suit himself. It was amazing.
‘But that's it and this is this.’
Thinking so, Oliver inserted a quarter staff between Gary and Joe and activated black magic..
[Voracity)]
Oliver used his remaining emotions to create several small mouths at the end of the quarter staff, absorbed Joe's black magic, then dismantled the black magic and returned it to emotions, strengthening Bore City and absorbing Gary's magic as well..
The stages were quite divided, but the pace of development was so fast that the two were soon disarmed..
Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. cold.
"......!"
"......!"
Joe and Gary were disarmed in the blink of an eye. Everyone involved, as well as those around them, were amazed by Oliver's skill..
Neutralizing a wizard and a warlock at the same time was not as easy as it sounds..
If both of them are skilled, the difficulty is doubled..
Since he was the solver who single-handedly defeated Sheamus, it may seem obvious, but even so, it was great..
Oliver said.
"I'm sorry to disturb you two, but I learned that it's not good for people who work together to fight..”
The air that had been heated by that indifferent word quickly cooled down..
Joe looked at Oliver and apologized first, and Gary also reluctantly apologized after hearing Albert's whisper..
Including grabbing Oliver by the collar..
“that… … . sorry.”
“No, it's my fault. Rather, I am sorry... … . I think my judgment was clouded because I was tired. sorry.”
Oliver said with some sincerity..
In fact, after defeating Sheamus, fatigue washed over her, and as soon as she checked on Eve, she accepted her request as if possessed by something..
Probably, I made a mistake because I was tired..
“Now can I tell you something??”
City official Carver intervened between Oliver and the Moirai school wizard, who was just wasting time without coming to a conclusion..
“I know we have a lot to talk about, but now it's time for dawn. First of all, how about going back to Landa? There might be someone coming here because of the previous battle..”
At those words, I looked around at the sky turning dark blue and the forest turning upside down..
Everyone agreed to stay away..
