Genius Warlock - Genius Warlock chapter 267

“You suffer late at night.”

Inside the restaurant with soft lights and melodies.

Oliver came to the bar at the corner of the restaurant, guided by Al.

I didn’t have time to look around the new restaurant in Forrest, so I just visited.

“It’s hard, you do it.”

Forrest, who was sitting on one side of the bar, responded to Oliver’s greeting.

He invited Oliver to sit in the seat across from him.

As Oliver knows, Forrest stays in the restaurant during the day, managing the restaurant, serving guests, and acting as a broker. He knew that he was taking care of various tasks, but he did not show any signs of fatigue, and he continued to sit there.

“Why but?”

“I have a question… Is there a reason the store stays open until late at night? I don’t think it was before?”

“There were no customers back then, not now.”

Forrest pointed to the guests sitting in other seats, eating or drinking.

Most solvers, informants, brokers, etc. With greetings from the dark side, there were quite a few.

Al said that the restaurant had become a kind of resting place in the neighborhood, and that seems to be true.

Forrest continued.

“The reason I haven’t been doing night business until now is not because I’m lazy, but because there’s no profit. If you have money, do it.”

“okay. But aren’t you tired of working late at night?”

“Do I look like I’m working?”

Forrest held up a glass of alcohol and a newspaper.

At first glance, it seemed that the wealthy old man was having a good time, but Oliver knew it wasn’t.

Gathering information was also a task for intermediaries.

And newspapers were a good tool among them.

“Do you have any interesting stories?”

“Unfortunately, there is… But it’s weird. Did you know that you read newspapers every day?”

“Oh, I can’t read these days.”

“I can’t read… It’s not that it’s annoying. Do you have any work to do?”

Forrest got it right.

Lately, Oliver has been quite busy with his tower training and preparations for the production facility to craft a blood elixir.

I even forgot the newspaper I read every morning.

At first I thought it was no big deal, but contrary to expectations, the two tasks were quite demanding.

It was impossible to help the training of Matoap students like the Warlocks, so I had to read a book or listen to other classes to learn the tricks.

Preparation of the production facility for the elixir of blood was also quite difficult.

Child-First has not yet taken over all of the Invoice Doll-Batori, so it produces an elixir, because it has not been able to find out all the necessary materials and equipment.

Oliver was speculating on his own, but even so, it was true that progress was slow.

For the above reasons, Oliver has been so busy lately that he has not been able to read newspapers well.

“little bit······. It doesn’t matter, you don’t have to worry about it.”

“Then I’m happy. Well then, I’ll go back to my job. Was this mission successful?”

Oliver nodded and talked about defending the eviction-union coalition and pushing the demolition company away.

As soon as he heard the answer, Forrest gave Oliver a handful of drinks with satisfaction.

“How are you?”

“It was good.”

Oliver answered honestly.

Overall, this mission was very satisfactory.

It was perfect for Oliver, who was short on time as he only had to move once, and the pay was excellent for the amount of time he entered.

The advance payment itself was not very large, but Oliver was able to receive 8% of the union’s remuneration upon successful completion of the mission, so it was expected that he could receive about 300 to 400 million won.

It could be said that it was a very large harvest that was worthwhile for Forrest to take the risk and approach the union first to pull the work.

“Oh, and we also captured a golem.”

“Golem?”

“Yes, a golem made of rocks. It was a golem with eyes on its body and a hammer the size of a house.”

“It’s a demolition golem. Hearing the design, it seems to be the 2nd model… But, how did you get it?”

“Did you hit me?”

“ah······.”

At the simple answer, Forrest spit out a sigh.

I didn’t ask that, but I decided not to ask any more.

Since the first question was asking if the Founder was worth dealing with…

Hearing his unharmed appearance and words, Oliver didn’t seem to care too much about the Founder or Golem.

The Founder is a well-known mercenary in Landa, and the Golem is a weapon that is difficult to block without sufficient firepower.

It was truly an amazing skill. To the extent that the end is now unpredictable.

Forrest asked.

“Where is the golem? It wouldn’t be something you could fit into your Big Mouse.”

“Yes, that’s right. I tried to put it in, but Big Mouse asked if I was crazy. First of all, it is not a size that can be swallowed. So I left it to the union for a while.”

“To the union?”

“Yeah, it’s because of me that you’ve benefited greatly. They offered to keep them in their warehouse for a while.”

It wasn’t strange at all.

It’s as good as winning a battle I almost lost thanks to Oliver.

Giving him a small favor was not a bad story, both morally and commercially.

“I’m not going to take the golem out of there, but you’d better get it back soon.”

“Yes, I am of the same opinion. First of all, I left it in a hurry, but I’m sorry to keep asking.”

“If you want, I can keep it in my own warehouse.”

“Is that okay?”

“Sure. Thanks to you, I made a huge commission today. But, what is the golem going to do? Even if they are broken, the golems are quite expensive, so even if you can’t do it, you should be able to rescue one or two. If you want, can you introduce me to our regular broker?”

“Well·······. That doesn’t sound like a bad thing, but I’ve made enough money from this job, so I’m just going to keep it.”

“What do you do with it?”

“I want to research.”

“Research?”

Forrest frowned and asked. Needless to say, golems are highly technologically intensive objects that have specialized agencies.

Even the same wizard was difficult to touch unless he had specialized knowledge. But now, the warlock said that he would study such a golem.

It was a really bizarre situation.

But what was even more absurd was that somehow Oliver seemed to be able to do it. Even if there was no basis for it.

“It’s not surprising now.”

“Yes?”

“No, nothing…. It’s the heart of the person who obtained the spoils, so do what you feel comfortable with. However, you will need a fairly large space to study golems.”

Oliver nodded.

Actually, I have been thinking about the problem for a short while.

Although the basement of Oliver’s new residence was rather large, it was cramped to study golems.

“I’ll take care of it, so I’ll pick it up when it’s convenient for you.”

“Is that okay?”

“If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have accepted it. Just say thank you.”

“Thank you very much for your kind consideration.”

“I am kind to people who make good money. It’s a snob… The union and the construction company will probably start negotiations tomorrow at the earliest, or the day after tomorrow at the latest. It’s the evictioners and the unions that have the advantage right now, so they’ll probably accommodate their demands. That’s how your pay increases. I’ll let you know as soon as a deal is reached, and I’ll get the union to pay the balance.”

“Yes, please take it slow.”

“I will do it quickly. That way, I get a fee.”

Forrest joked naturally. I was envious of such an ability. Because Oliver didn’t make it.

As the conversation reached a certain end, Oliver unintentionally checked his watch. It was quite late.

Even if I go home like this, I’m at the level of whether I should sleep for an hour or two.

Oliver begged Forrest to let him get up.

“Sure. You were holding on too late.”

“no. Then, excuse me.”

“Yeah, well-ah! . . . can I not ask about that?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Did I say I saw some interesting news in the newspaper?”

“ah·······. I forgot. What’s the fun news?”

“I heard that Sheamus set up an investment company.”

As Forrest said so, he turned the newspaper with the article and held it to Oliver.

Oliver could see the large print in the newspaper.

[Landa female investors. Druid and Innovative Investment Company Established!!!]

***

When Dave saw the article, he was interested for a while and then left.

After finishing Forrest slowly, I thought about getting up from my seat.

If the person you’ve been waiting for has left, why do you keep dying?

Al, who had just been sent off, approached. He gave off a very neat impression by wearing a uniform that was ironed stiffly.

“president. Dave is gone.”

“It was hard. You must be tired, so should you go home soon?”

“I’m fine, so don’t worry.”

“…but, see what you have to say?”

Forrest, who had been watching the egg for a long time, noticed immediately. Al did not deny it.

“Yes, sir.”

said Forrest, slowly emptying the drink from the crystal glass.

“Let me tell you.”

“It’s not a matter of presumptuousness, but shouldn’t we be persuading Mr. Dave a little bit?”

Persuasion was none other than making Dave the captain of the fighter crew.

At the request of some crime firm directors,

The reason was that if Dave became the captain of the Fighter Crew, he would automatically become an ally of the Crime Firm and wield that power.

There were quite a few people who came up with this idea, perhaps because of his docile personality compared to his performance and fame.

Each time, Forrest did a decent job, but the directors of the crime firm were a bit annoying.

‘They were the ones who asked the fighter crew to convince Dave in the first place… Excessive greed.’

“egg. Do you think you should?”

“It’s a request from the directors of the Crime Firm. The boss accepted it.”

“I said I’d really think about it. I’ve already rejected it many times, but I keep using it in droves.”

“But wouldn’t it be better to bring the story out? If you don’t even give me work, your relationship with the directors will deteriorate.”

Al, unfamiliar with dealings with giants, said. Conversely, Forrest was calm.

“Anyway, he’s a coercive opponent. I’m a person who will feel bad no matter what I do if it doesn’t bring the desired results. In that case, it’s better to make friends with the directors you can talk to now, and figure out your own defenses. There’s nothing more rude than asking a favor when you know you’re going to say no.”

Al bowed his head in response to the clear answer.

“ah·······. sorry. I was stupid.”

“That’s not right. You’re just inexperienced… Don’t worry, we’ll provide a livelihood for you and your companions in case of an emergency.”

“I didn’t mean it that way.”

“I know, I know.”

Forrest calmed the flustered egg and held out the newspaper.

“I’d like to know more about this than that.”

What Forrest was talking about was the content of the article he had shown to none other than Dave.

It was said that the female investors in Landa worked with the Druids to set up an investment company.

While it was not uncommon for investment firms to be set up in the overburdened Landa, Forrest caught on to one thing. very much

“An investment that never fails using the world tree . . . . It’s a very disturbing sentence.”

Al tilted his head.

“Do I even need to investigate?”

“I don’t mean to delve into it deliberately, I just want to know roughly. Lately, haven’t I grown in size? When that happens, you have to be more careful. If you get bigger, you will be easily swept away by the waves. For some reason, I think this great businessman is going to make a big wave. In a good sense or in a bad sense.”

Forrest pointed to Seamus in the picture.

He was standing with three beauties holding a sign with the words “ABC” on it. smiling broadly.
