Genius Warlock-Episode 394

394. sister (1)

“Just wait a moment. We will discuss this..”

The head of the Magic Tower administration spoke to Oliver. He appeared calm on the outside, but on the inside he seemed displeased, perplexed, embarrassed, and embarrassed..

The same goes for the masters sitting on both sides..

Their emotions could be said to be truly complex..

Even though I didn't like Oliver personally, I also accepted him.,

Even though I wanted to let Oliver go, I couldn't..

The conflicting emotions of hating and accepting each other crossed over and tried to subdue each other. quite violently.

The story of how much effort is put into it.

The Magic Tower administrator and the masters talked repeatedly and eventually opened their mouths to Oliver..

“I think we need more discussion. For now, stand back and wait..”

***

atmosphere.

It was a somewhat awkward decision, but Oliver was satisfied and stood up, bowed politely to the head of administration, Moirai, and the two masters of the space school, and walked out..

As I closed the door, a spacious but stiff rectangular hallway came into view..

The atmosphere is perfect for an administrative building that coordinates the differences of opinion and relationships of each school..

Oliver went back the same way he came, and even though he was on vacation, he came to work and said hello to the employees who run the magic tower..

They reacted rather stiffly, as if they knew Oliver..

It wasn't unpleasant, but I was also worried at the same time..

Vacation will end soon, but I think it will be a little annoying if it continues like this..

‘I wonder if I will remain in the Magic Tower until then... Well, since I might get kicked out, should I just read books for a while? That's a big deal, there are two places I have to visit - yeah?’

As he turned around the hallway and reached the entrance, Oliver ran into someone..

It was none other than Yareli and Kevin's researchers Derek and Felix..

“hello. everyone.”

An unexpected meeting. Oliver greeted them politely and looked at them..

Yarely, with curly silver hair and thick glasses, looked neat as usual, but Derek and Felix had changed considerably..

Both are men who have trained their bodies. But now, his physique became smaller and his face became haggard, as if he had been fighting an illness for a long time..

In particular, Derek's condition was so severe that his bright red hair became discolored and became quite pale..

‘It is said that due to Theodore's experiment, his magic power and vitality were absorbed and he became weak. It was like this.’

Oliver reflexively uses the eyes of the warlock. I checked Derek and Felix's condition..

As Kevin said, the magic power of the two people was greatly weakened..

Almost half the level.

I now understand why Kevin told me to watch my mouth..

Rather than hearing it through a story. Seeing it in person touched me more. The loss of Kevin and Felix..

‘I'll have to think more deeply about these issues in the future..’

Oliver opened his mouth, recognizing his own insensitivity..

“Are you both okay??”

“Well, it's gotten better... Because I can walk now.”

Derek's answer. Yareli added.

“Until a few days ago, we both had a hard time walking..”

It was bad news, but Oliver wasn't surprised. Because I saw with my own eyes what Theodore did..

Frankly, Derek and Felix were lucky just to have survived there..

“Still, I'm glad. Because you're feeling better.”

Derek flinched briefly in anger. However, it is literally only for a moment..

He thought deeply and controlled his emotions. He seemed to have something to say.

“How did the interview go? Have you decided to officially join the Magic Tower??”

While Derek was calming down, Yarely asked a question, and Oliver reflexively answered..

“yes? Oh no.”

“No?”

Yareli was surprised. It was as if it was a foregone conclusion that Oliver would enter the Magic Tower. Derek and Felix were no different..

“Wait why?······?”

“No way, who was against it??”

Oliver shook his head and calmed them down. He explained the matter step by step..

Why don't you enter the magic tower?.

Their reactions after hearing the explanation were no different from those of Kevin, the head of administration, and Moirai, the two masters of the space school..

“I really don't understand... It's the perfect opportunity... No matter how successful Mr. Zenon is outside, this······”

Yareli was so embarrassed that he blurted out a rare expression. Oliver just looked around..

“I would appreciate your understanding as this is a personal preference. It's not that I don't like the Magic Tower..”

“Of course not.”

Derek said sarcastically. His emotions slowly fluctuated like an active volcano waking up, and soon emotions of anger, jealousy, and resentment began to stir..

“hey······.”

Felix was embarrassed and stopped Derek. With an expression like “Isn’t this what it used to be?”.

But Derek continued to open his mouth, pushed by emotional pressure. Like a crater spewing lava.

“Why is it true? If you're a good guy like that guy, there's no need to be attached to the Magic Tower, right? Wherever I go, I will eat well and live well with that ability... You don't have to pay attention to what people around you are like assholes, and you can kick up opportunities that others have been waiting for their whole lives without hesitation. Stylishly.”

Emotions pouring out without hesitation. The feelings were sharp and passionate, but Oliver didn't hate them..

Because as aggressive as it was, it was so true.

Rather, it was Yareli who interfered. She got angry as if she couldn't listen anymore..

“you really-”

“-no. it's okay. Mr. Yareli. I like it.”

The three people's eyes focused on Oliver due to the unexpected answer..

Taking control of the conversation unintentionally. Oliver calmly opened his mouth..

“Please do not misunderstand. I'm just saying that I like Derek's honest words, and I have no intention of insulting or ridiculing him..”

Oliver paused, looking at Derek. To check whether your thoughts have been conveyed properly.

Fortunately, it seemed to have been delivered properly..

“I understand that Derek is angry with me. He went through a big problem, and in a chaotic situation in many ways, I acted against the order of the Magic Tower and your values. I guess I wasn't careful. I apologize for that. But apart from that, I don't think my decision itself was wrong..”

Oliver spoke his opinion kindly but stubbornly..

As Derek looked at that, the anger that had been boiling in his heart disappeared, and he thought that it was foolish to get angry..

“It's really absurd... The opportunity you have been given is incredible. I also heard about your thesis. If you have that, you will quickly rise to the rank of Master, and with your skills, you can aim for even more... Because you are the one who fought with Theodore too..”

Derek said calmly. Sincere, not sarcastic. Apparently, Derek didn't faint and saw Oliver and Theodore fight..

Is that why? Aside from feelings of jealousy or resentment, he recognized Oliver and admired him a little. He tried to deny it, but.

“Thank you for the compliment.”

“It's not a compliment, it's true······.”

“Still. I'm glad that someone as strong-willed as Derek praises me..”

Derek flinched and looked at Oliver..

To see if Oliver was sincere or not..

I don't know what decision he made, but Derek opened his mouth..

“······sorry. Actually, I came to say thank you for saving me... but I'm sorry.······.”

Derek stuttered, perhaps not used to apologies or thanks..

The voice was small and the content was not clear, but the feelings were sincere..

As proof, he apologized and thanked Oliver until the end, despite his rejection..

It was really good. Something like this.

“I really appreciate you saying thank you..”

Oliver said politely, placing his hand on one of his breasts. Felix, who saw that, also said he had come to say thank you, and Oliver greeted Felix in the same way..

“Thank you also Mr. Yareli. Thank you for bringing the two of you..”

“It's not difficult, so don't worry. Rather, what happens now? Zenon, are you leaving the magic tower??”

“I don't know about that either. First of all, he told me to wait..”

“Wait.?”

“yes.”

“It seems like I really want you. It's not that I don't understand, but.”

Derek spoke more comfortably than before. It seemed like psychological resistance had decreased. It's a feeling of acknowledging others..

It looked pretty good..

“Oh, by the way, when will you two recover??”

Felix answered.

“I'm not sure of the details, but it looks like I'll have to dedicate quite a bit of time to recovery. Since I've lost not only my magic but also my energy, I need to recover my body first..”

Oliver looked at Derek and Felix again with the eyes of a warlock..

Vitality weakened as much as magical power.

“Can't I recover with potions??”

“Potions don't work.”

Yareli said firmly..

“I can't do it.?”

“yes. Usually people think that the potion is a miracle medicine, but if you do it wrong, it is a medicine that will kill you. Strictly speaking, the role of a potion is an activator. All you have to do is forcefully activate the body and increase wound recovery. Only the effects and side effects vary depending on the quality of the potion, and you cannot escape the mechanism..”

Oliver nodded at the detailed explanation..

Even though I've studied herbalism, I haven't studied alchemy yet. Of course, I didn't know that all potions worked with that mechanism. I thought there would be something different about the Magic Tower potion..

As expected, it seems that magic is not all-powerful..

“So, potions are convenient if used appropriately, but if used incorrectly, they can be poisonous. Especially when the user's stamina is low..”

“So how do you get your body back on track??”

“The best thing for now is to recover naturally through diet, sleep, and appropriate exercise. Other than that... At best, it's a nutritional supplement..”

It's a nutritional supplement... Oliver searched in his arms..

“I'm not sure, but would you like to try this? When I think of it as a nutritional supplement, it comes to mind..”

What Oliver took out was a small pill box, and there were two pills inside. It was red, but the color was so dark that it looked black at first glance..

It was a blood elixir..

“This······. What is it?”

Yareli, feeling an unusual energy, asked a question..

“This is a medicine that I found (the recipe for) by chance. I heard that it restores vitality for men and improves skin beauty for women. Would you like to try it??”

Derek shone with doubt and reluctance..

“This was made with black magic.?”

“As far as I know. I know one person who uses it, and he said it works well for him..”

Oliver thought of Edith. He received medicine from Oliver regularly and was quite satisfied..

‘Do it five times a day!’

A compliment I still don't know what to say. Anyway, Edith was satisfied..

“It looks like a valuable item. Can you give it to us??”

“yes. it's okay.”

Oliver was sincere. In the past, it would have been difficult due to lack of quantity, but thanks to the cotton vest I received from Lee Wan, work efficiency increased and productivity increased significantly, so there was no problem..

Productivity increased so much that First was able to work an unprecedented 16 hours, which is a reduction of 2 hours from the legal working hours of 18 hours (excluding break times)..

I still haven’t forgotten First’s words..

‘fuck.’

Derek and Felix each took a pill of blood elixir and debated whether to take it or not..

“Oh, of course, you don't have to force yourself to eat it..”

“······This is definitely effective?”

“The people who mainly take it are elderly people, so honestly, I'm not sure what effect it has on younger people. However, I think anything will have an effect..”

“I came to say thank you, but I had no idea I would be playing Mormot..”

“Again, there is no need to force yourself to eat it.-”

-gulp!

While Oliver was speaking, Derek swallowed the blood elixir, followed by Felix, who closed his eyes tightly and swallowed the medicine..

Silence fell. Oliver asked.

“How is it?”

“I just took some medicine.”

“ah······. really. Could you please do me a favor??”

“If you want something, don't say anything. I should have told you that before I ate it..”

“No, that's not it. Could you please keep the medication a secret? Unless there are side effects..”

Derek narrowed his eyes at the suspicious request..

“······why?”

“I have personal reasons. I'll explain in detail later.”

Derek's eyes were still narrowed, but he nodded. Even though he was suspicious, he still trusted Oliver..

What can I say... It was quite rewarding.

“Thank you for your favor..”

“If there's a problem, I'll report it right away, so don't like it too much... But, where do you have to go? I've been looking at the clock since a while ago.?”

“Oh, excuse me. I still had some time left, but I took a look just in case..”

“I have an appointment with someone?”

“I'm with people I had a brief reconciliation with..”

“for a moment?”

“yes. I have something to tell you..”

***

Area O, Randa’s upper-middle-class residence.

Oliver visited the Bathory family living here..

“Thank you for meeting me like this..”

“How could you refuse? He is the one who gave me this house and living expenses..”

Erzsebet, the current leader of the Bathory family, responded with cold courtesy..

“You don't have to think that way. As I said, I gave this house to you as an apology, so you don’t have to feel burdened..”

“Yes. It's the price of killing our mother..”

“That means... sorry.”

“That's it. The fate of the weak is miserable. I know... What brings you here? Do you have something to ask??”

“no······.”

Oliver, sitting in front of the table, blurted out his words..

A girl named Erzsebet Pal, the youngest of my sister's sisters, served coffee in front of Oliver, and the other sisters also came down to the living room to see what was going on..

They naturally surrounded Oliver..

“There is nothing to ask... So, what brought you here??”

“It's nothing different, but I'm here to formally apologize again. About Bathory’s work..”

Crack. My sister, who was calm and rational, bit her teeth..

angry.

But Oliver didn't change his mind..

“You came to mock me..”

“I'm serious. sincerely······. sorry.”

“You said you were truly sorry before, but it was a lie back then.?”

“no. However, it feels a little different.”

“feeling?”

“Yes, I was sorry at the time because I didn't know what it was like to have someone precious die, but I didn't know how much pain it was for you..”

Oliver thought of Marie. He rescued Marie, who fell after being stabbed on his behalf.······.

“······But now I feel like I know a little bit more. So I would like to apologize again. I think that's right.”

Oliver looked straight into his sister's eyes and said.

My sister stared into Oliver's eyes for a moment, but quickly looked away as if Oliver's unwavering eyes were burdensome..

“Did you just come to say that??”

“no. Actually, I have one more thing to tell you. I don't think you'll like it, but I think it's right for me to tell you the truth..”

“······What is it?”

“You said I had no choice but to kill Bathory, right? I also want to live?”

“······.”

“Actually, it's a lie. Even though he could have been sufficiently subdued within a reasonable range, he was killed. Cut off limbs and cut off heads..”

“······!!”

Sister, Orshoye, Catherine, Andrássy, Pal. Bathory's daughters' barely concealed murderous intent has once again been revealed to the surface..

The air feels tingly.

If I hadn't been wary of Oliver's skills, I would have attacked him a long time ago..

However, Oliver did not take any action and just sat quietly and looked at his sister..

The older woman shouted, her face distorted like an animal, with anger fermenting like poison..

“Why did you say that??!”

“It's to make excuses. The reason I killed Bathory. He said he would first cut off the limbs of my precious person and kill him..”

Surprisingly, the air that had been tense like a whip calmed down with that one word..

The Bathory family's anger was overwhelmed by Oliver..

Oliver continued, stroking his coffee cup..

“At that time, I was subdued by Bathory-sama, and Bathory-sama was sincere... I was annoyed, so I killed him..”

“······.”

“Of course, that doesn't mean I had the right to kill Bathory. It's not that I'm sorry to you all..”

“······.”

“However, I hope you will take into account the fact that your precious person tried to touch my precious person first. because······. Oh my, I don't know what to say..”

Bathory's daughters, including Orshoye, Catherine, Andrássy, and Pal, exchanged glances at the unexpected story..

My sister was the only one who didn't, because she had to think. How to respond.

“······Who on earth is this precious person??”

“I would also like to answer... But I don't think I can give you an answer right now. Because of the people down there. Are you a human meat chef??”

Oliver saw the person in the cellar below the living room..

They were in an awkward state of mixing together an unusual amount of emotion and magic, like mud of different colors..

“I got caught!!”

under the living room floor.

With an exciting shout, a black sword made of emotions came out from below and aimed at Oliver..

At the same time, my sister and her sisters prepared to attack Oliver..

Even though that resolve was broken by Oliver's stern gaze, a gesture to stop, and a slight nod..

“······!”

Oliver pierced through the black magician's eyes and easily dodged the sword strike from below, extracted part of the sword strike, returned it to emotion, processed it again with black magic, and wrapped it around his body and quarter staff..

As soon as he could not withstand the attack, the living room floor collapsed, and Oliver fell down there. whatever Oliver wants.

As soon as I got down, I saw a man holding a butcher knife in both hands..

All of his teeth were sharp, as if he had sharpened them with an iron file..

“under! under! under! It's coming down on its own!! As the disciple of the human meat chef, I am you.━”

━Bong!!

“sorry. This story is more urgent..”

Using the falling speed, Oliver threw out the quarter staff, which not only shattered the opponent's butcher knife, but also destroyed his mouth..

with just one attack.
