Genius Warlock - Genius Warlock chapter 265

265. Daily (1)

When the deal was done, Iwan shoved the meat hammer into the cloak, got up and went out of the warehouse.

“I don’t know when, but I’ll call you later.”

He spoke so lively that it was hard to believe that he had just been imprisoned in shackles.

Joe, who stood guard in front of the warehouse, looked at Oliver with a gleam of doubt, and Oliver nodded, saying it was okay.

Seeing that, Jo didn’t put any restraint on Lee Wan.

“It was nice to meet you too. I had a good free drink.”

Lee Wan leaves, tapping Jo’s chest.

Joe looked at Lee Wan with dissatisfaction.

As Lee Wan left, Jo approached cautiously.

“Do you finish the story well?”

Forrest looked at Oliver as if passing through an answer, and Oliver replied sternly.

“Yeah, it looks like it’s over.”

“If you don’t mind, can I ask what you were talking about?”

Joe said very politely. It’s not just an outward appearance, it’s the sincerity.

When Oliver was at a loss for where to start, Forrest intervened.

“I showed you an interesting black magic item, and I decided to process it into the shape Dave wanted.”

Oliver nodded as if he was right.

“Oh, I see······. So, isn’t it dangerous? Did you just leave?”

“It is said that processing cannot be done here, and can only be processed by going to Zone Z.”

“Area Z?”

Joe frowned as if he didn’t understand.

It was a natural reaction.

Area X was also one of the most rugged cities in Landa, but even so, it was within common sense.

From Area Y, it was an unknown land, and Area Z was treated as a kind of magic.

It’s not that it’s not, there were various mutants, criminals and dangerous organizations living in hiding. The anti-development committee is one of them.

It was a very dangerous place.

It’s hard to imagine that an outsider would go to such a place.

When Joe told this, Forrest shook his head.

“You don’t have to worry about that. You said you were dealing with the anti-development committee in Zone Z, so there will be no business.”

“Is it real?”

“Yeah, I haven’t seen them trade in person, but I’ve seen acquaintances.”

“Then, isn’t it worse? You might pick up an item and bounce? If it’s Zone Z, we can’t even put our kids on guard.”

“··································································································· Sorry, Joe. I’m sorry I’ve just been helped, but why are the fighter crew watching Lee Wan? It’s my job, it’s my business.”

At Oliver’s question, Joe was speechless, unable to say anything.

With him, emotions such as embarrassment, hesitation, and fear shone.

Oliver didn’t know why he was doing this.

“Anyway, thank you for your help. However, they say that you have to go to Zone Z to process items. It was true. Also, I won’t run away with just the items.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah, you really made a deal. I don’t think he’s going to break his promise.”

“Ah, yes… All right.”

At Oliver’s words, Joe nodded without any objection.

For some reason, compared to the past, his personality seemed to be much more harmful.

Oliver stood up and formally greeted Joe.

“Thanks for your help, thanks to Joe, I was able to meet Lee Wan sooner than I expected. I was worried about what would happen if things got delayed, but thank you very much.”

“no. Of course, I just did what I had to do.”

It was Oliver who was helped, but Joe bowed his head more.

Something was strange.

“Well······. If that’s okay with you, can I ask you a question?”

“Yes, tell me.”

“Did you say that all the suits fit the same style?”

“Ah, yes… The style was ours, and the fit was done by the crime perm.”

“Well······. Would you like some money?”

Oliver looked at Forrest and asked.

“Well, because the number of people is small. Can’t it be called a penny?”

Oliver nodded.

“Then there is nothing I can do. I have to change.”

Joe was perplexed.

“Yes? What is that…?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. clothes style. If you keep wearing similar clothes, people may misunderstand you. So I’m going to change my clothes.”

“Why?”

“Is it economical to just change my clothes? Rather than changing the clothes of 288 people, I would change them.”

Understanding Oliver’s resolute will to not be misunderstood, Joe closed his eyes, shining with a sad feeling.

He was disappointed and sad.

But for a moment, Joe woke up. with a commitment to it.

“One word…. No, can I please?”

“Please?”

“Yes.”

“For now, can I hear you?”

“Can’t Dave be the captain of our fighter crew?”

***

“So I asked why. Why did you ask me to lead the fighter crew? I wonder if there is anything difficult about it.”

“·················ogue.”

“Fortunately, he said nothing was difficult. Rather, he said that through the practice, his strength gradually became stronger, and things were going well. The win rate and survival rate are both high, and the job is steady and the income is good.”

“·················ogue.”

“So I asked again. But why did you ask me to be the captain? So Joe replied: All the fighter crew members respect and like me. I realized how well I taught them without any conditions, and I am grateful for this. So, I asked you to become their captain. Not just Joe, but everyone else who followed him.”

“·················ogue.”

“Honestly, it doesn’t feel bad. I worked hard to teach them, but I think my efforts paid off… However, I declined the offer to become a captain separately from him.”

“·················ogue.”

“Isn’t it strange? It was me who taught, but they were the ones who tried to learn, and I, who had not done anything so far, sat there as the captain. Even, I’m not from X, Y, or Z areas… So I declined.”

“·················ogue.”

“I’m not from here, and I’m not the kind of person to be the captain. Because my curiosity is more important than anything else… Above all else, they are people who are already running their own organizations well, and I said that it was strange no matter how much I thought about going into the general position. Joe tried to convince me it was okay, but I refused. I go with people who are self-reliant… I hated it.”

“·················ogue.”

“I didn’t fully understand, but Joe agreed. Instead, they plan to increase the size of their fighter crew, and they asked me to help. I want you to do some training. I accepted that. You work hard, so I wanted to help out a little.”

“·················ogue.”

“Oh, and there’s also an interesting story about Marie.”

“·················ogue.”

“After I left, Marie took control of the Joseph family. There were some ups and downs, though.”

“·················ogue.”

“I understand that the current name has been changed to ‘The Chosen People’ and the scale is also increasing. Not at all the way I thought it would, but it’s still great. More than that, I don’t know. I didn’t notice because I wanted to keep my distance. But I think it would be ok to find out at least once. master.”

After speaking, Oliver stood up.

Across from Oliver was Joseph, leaning against the altar, turned to bones.

He had been dead for well over a year and two years, now with only bones and a little skin left.

squeaky.

Oliver poured alcohol into the cup he had brought, and placed food from the Forest Restaurant on the plate.

The better smell of food filled the dark space.

“Thank you for listening. master. I don’t know when I will visit again, but I will come back when I have time.”

When Oliver had finished speaking, he bowed his head politely and left.

Using a light sphere made of magical power, I went back the way I came and eventually came out of the abandoned hospital.

After finishing his chores, Oliver immediately went out of the fence of the abandoned hospital and tried to return home.

“By the way, can you catch a taxi here? Come to think of it, I didn’t even think about the return transportation.”

“How did you usually get back?”

“I asked the taxi I came from to come back in a few hours. Today, I got a car other than a taxi, so I couldn’t make a reservation.”

“What car did you get?”

“I can’t catch a busy person for my personal business, so I sent it first. But, I think I made a mistake.”

“That would be very annoying. It’s quite difficult to get a taxi from Zone X… What can I call you?”

“If yes, thank you. Cant.”

said Oliver, looking at the beggar sitting in the corner of the alley.

He wore a shabby long coat and in one hand was holding a quarter staff disguised as a cane.

Oliver looked down at him and asked.

“Are you waiting for me by any chance?”

“If I said no, would it be a lie?”

“Yes······. How did you know I was waiting for you?”

“Didn’t you last hear about what our poor brothers make a living on? It’s not that hard to figure out you’re coming here.”

“ah······. That’s great.”

“Kuk. Isn’t that great? And if you came here, I thought you would come here for some reason… Anyway, nice to meet you.”

“It’s really nice to meet you too. It seems like a very long time.”

“It’s been a long time. actually. I have come to ask you something.”

“ah······.”

Oliver groaned, slightly startled. But he soon regained his composure.

Because in this busy city, there were no cases of people visiting for nothing. Rather, it was natural.

“Tell me. If there is anything I can do to help, I will be happy to help.”

Kent raised one lip and pulled out a bottle of alcohol hidden in his long coat.

“Can I have a drink for the lonely old man?”

***

Really that was all.

The reason Cant came was just to have a drink and chat.

He said that now would be the only chance he had to meet the busy Oliver.

Oliver savored an unknown pleasure in those words and recounted some of the things he had been doing with Dave the fixer.

Some of them had been to upper-class parties.

Cant was very impressed with this.

He said that not everyone can go to such a party, and he said that he had to be overwhelming in various areas such as skill, credibility, and presence.

Then Cant asked if the rumors he had heard were true.

I wonder if Oliver took the young lady he had brought in last time as his lover, used it as a wallet, and overpowered the fighter crew to become the captain.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Naturally, Oliver denied the rumors and calmly explained them.

Hearing the explanation, Cant just smiled.

‘okay······. Somehow it seemed so, if it were you.’

‘How are you, Cant?’

‘It’s me, as usual.’

Cant said that these days, it is increasing the size of the poor brothers and creating a new information network.

In the process, he also contacted the taxi union, formed similar alliances with beggars in other districts, and said that he was increasing the number of customers such as factories and companies beyond the gang.

Without any pretense or pretentiousness.

It was really nice to see.

When the bottle was empty, Oliver and Cant parted, and Cant invites them to come sometime.

Seriously, not just saying it.

Oliver promised to visit when he had time, and returned home to get back to work.

If I had to say that it was daily life, I would get up early in the morning to go to work, leave work late in the afternoon, and work as a fixer at night.

right, just like now.

“This monstrous guy…!”

The resolver, whose limbs were golem-willed, shouted. Oliver answered, moving closer to him in an instant.

“sorry. It’s work.”
