Gift (2)
Lennok said that and without hesitation turned his back and walked down the lighthouse.
Behind him, he could feel Lapis’s gaze not falling, but she did not stop him.
He was well aware that he intended to leave the Dominion as soon as he recovered.
I ca out of the lighthouse, ignoring the greetings of the onlookers pouring in from the spacious hall.
It’s already been a week since we’ve settled on lodging here, but now it’s ti to go back to the Dominion.
Since arriving in the Dominion, work has been so busy that he lost contact with Jenny in the middle.
I also had to see what was going on in the Balkans while he was away.
In that terrifyingly gigantic city, it was a place where it was not strange no matter what happened every day.
If Lennok said he was leaving, a crowd of incomparable people would co out to see him off.
Such a welco is not very welco.
I quietly erased my presence and walked towards the dock where the wing boats were placed.
As I was about to pass the dense forest in between, I saw Seon-yi standing with her eyes closed, leaning against a tree.
“… … .”
A cold expression that was completely different from the one that had only shown slight misalignnt of longing and loyalty until now.
I’ve never seen him fight in person, but considering his tidy spirit and magic, and the attitude other observers treated him, he must have been quite talented.
However, even though he hadn’t made any contributions in this battle, he didn’t show it once.
It was proof that he was a military man who had been thoroughly trained not only on the outside, but also on the inside.
He slightly opened his eyes and stared at Lennok, then nodded slightly.
Understanding the aning of the nod, Lennok also silently passed him to the dock.
“I hope to see you next ti in a similar place.”
There was no need for an answer to the low voice that ca from behind.
It was already after Seon-ryun suddenly hid his presence and appearance.
Passing like a ghost among the watchers returning to the lighthouse after a busy day, he naturally picked out a wingboat and gripped the steering wheel.
No one noticed its movent until the mont it soared above the clouds and escaped the astronomical barrier.
The fact that the location of the lighthouse has never been discovered despite so many watchers coming and going in real ti proves just how powerful the astronomical formulas endowed with this lighthouse are.
Darby opened his mouth as he flew above the sun-reflecting clouds and reached the calm sky.
[Looking at this scenery is over now.]
“I guess you liked it quite a bit?”
[I don’t know.]
Darby answered, poking her head out of her arms.
[I don’t know, but to look down on people like this from a high place… … I feel strange.]
“… … .”
Could it be that Lennok was not a brain spirit, but rather a natural king?
It is true that listening to what this guy has to say lately has given an absurd feeling that doesn’t match Lennok’s situation at all.
As Lennok dispelled the absurd feeling, he turned the steering wheel in the direction Darby was looking.
As the sea level approaches, the sunlight is broken up and reflected, dazzling the eyes of wizards and spirits, and the salty
sll and cool sea breeze bathe their faces.
Woo-woo-!!
Lennok removed his hand from the wingboat running on the sea and muttered as he stared blankly at the scenery on the other side.
“okay. Sotis you have days when you like this.”
Although I can never say that many good things have happened since I opened my eyes in this world.
At least today’s scenery is morable for Lennok.
The scenery of the beautiful floating island, which we would never have encountered if it were not for this world, gradually recedes.
Our ti in the Dominion was coming to an end.
* * *
The misty cliff where we first rented the wingboat.
The boundary line where the updraft loses its power and this convenient ans of transportation becos obsolete.
Lennok returned the device to the young man who first borrowed the wingboat.
It doesn’t matter if it’s residents of the Dominion, but outsiders had to leave a record of renting/returning wingboats while going to and from the floating island colony.
Due to the recent appearance of heterogeneous species, many outsiders who visited the Dominion fled as soon as the barrier was released.
Of course, it seems that there were crazy people who liked this phenonon, saying that it was an intensification of the unique natural phenonon of the Dominion, but at least Akasha didn’t seem to like it.
After confirming that her pseudonym, Cassia, was written on the ledger that recorded wingboat rentals and returns, Lennok turned his head without hesitation.
At least I could give a brief explanation about this incident, but it seems that I went back to the Balkans first for circumstances.
All that remains is to wait for the train back to the Balkans.
Fortunately, given the length of ti Lennok lay loosely at the lighthouse, he seed to be able to fit the train schedule the broker had told him about.
As he sat at an old train station waiting for his ti, soone sat down next to him.
Lennok suddenly turned his head and smiled at the familiar bronzed skin.
“If you wanted to say hello, you could do it in the Dominion, so why are you arguing here?”
“Hey bastard, it’s just a habit of talking to adults.”
“I don’t want to listen to the person who called the Ascendant Grandma.”
Bread hat and trench coat. The clothes chosen for camouflage must have a very anachronistic fashion sense.
Does a naive shaman reveal his individuality in these trivial details?
Grisha, whose face was covered with a hat and sunglasses, sighed at Lennok’s words.
“Well, I didn’t co here because of you. I was originally going to leave the Dominion again as soon as I saw the face of the guy who said he had inherited the old woman’s ssage.”
“You live a busy life.”
It wasn’t sothing Lennok would say, but considering how he behaved when he first t her, it was understandable.
In fact, Grisha must be a powerful force that can be counted in one hand even in the blue eye.
Naturally, it is inevitable that it will be ntioned as the top priority in all operations carried out by the Blue Eye.
In addition, since Lapis seems to define the blue eye’s active area regardless of location, she naturally has no choice but to be busy with her powers.
The first eting was quite unpleasant, but now I was acknowledging her to so extent.
“I had sothing to tell you. take it.”
Saying that, Grisha took sothing out of his pocket and threw it at Lennok.
Lennok let go of it as if for granted, then picked up the object that had fallen to the ground with a nonchalant expression.
A small doll the size of a thumb.
It was hard to say that it was a good design, even with good words, when looking at the letters that were inscribed with incomprehensible characters in crooked handwriting.
“For a gift, it’s very… … It’s a sha.”
Grisha giggled at Lennok’s honest feelings.
“Originally, that’s what witchcraft is all about. Don’t talk and take it. It will help you later if you et a good-hearted shaman like .”
“Hoho, is this sothing you need to show off your personal connections? Then the story will be a little different.”
Lennok, who was flattered like a lie, took the doll and tucked it inside his coat.
Grisha nodded as he took out a smoking pipe from inside his arms.
“okay. Well, I don’t think many people will recognize this, but… … If you’re in a big city that’s behind it, at least one person will recognize you and take care of you.”
“It will be fun.”
Lennox laughed at Grisha’s bold assertion.
“Let’s see if their popularity is great enough to say so confidently.”
“okay. Unless we both stumble sowhere.”
“… … .”
Grisha calmly continued.
“Because it doesn’t seem like you and I will live forever and live forever.”
“You have a knack for saying unlucky things.”
“It is not wrong. To be honest, I was envious of Grandma.”
She lowered her head slightly and lit the smoking pipe.
I stare blankly down at the rusty railroad tracks while inhaling the burning smoke.
“It was a life with many ups and downs, but in the end, the grandmother did everything she had to do and could do and left. In the end, even the discernnt that he is conveying the ssage to you, not . I always thought he was an annoying old man, but… … I don’t even know if I wanted to get the recognition of the old lady after all.”
“… … .”
“Well, now it doesn’t matter anyway. It’s because I’m not a person with a lot of lingering attachnts to hold on to the dead for a long ti.”
Saying that, Grisha quickly brushed off his seat and stood up lightly.
“Maybe Grandma didn’t want us to stop the pandemonium… … But even so, I intend to hold Lapis Falseer’s hand until the end.”
She looked down at Lennok with determination.
“So, I ask you to take a good look at what the grandmother chose. Indeed, which one chose the right path in the end?”
It is almost certain that the answer cos down to this age.
Grisha left without giving up his thoughts until the end.
For justification, he might have intended to give this little doll as a gift, but it was probably closer to what he really wanted to do.
She, too, pretended to be calm on the outside, but was confused by the fact that the Ascendant had left nothing for Lapis and herself.
In fact, even though I know that it doesn’t an anything.
Lennok leaned back in his chair silently and looked up at the sky.
It’s a world where it’s hard to face any one properly.
Just as Lennok continues to run away from the rest of his ti, others also have a hard ti facing what they have to do.
A life like a fla that fades in vain after being born.
It is always up to oneself to find one’s own aning in it.
And Lennok was still pondering what it ant.
As I pondered, I saw faint smoke rising over the horizon.
Lennok stopped thinking and rose slowly from his seat.
My legs gave out and I staggered for a mont, but as always, I quickly regained my balance.
It was ti to head back to the Balkans.
* * *
The ti I spent in the Dominion was a little over two weeks, but it is true that it felt much longer in terms of experience.
It was enough to erode Lennok’s ntal strength that he ran all over Philenom in pursuit of the drug lord’s traces.
That’s why Lennok felt awkward at the sight of a great city returning after a long absence.
“I didn’t expect to miss the sll of fus like this… … .”
Even the obnoxious fus of the 50th District, where cheap fuel is burning, seem distant in Lennok’s mory.
“Hey there rags!! Give all your money and get out!”
Even the face of a bully who suddenly starts a nonsensical argunt looks friendly, so isn’t this already on the verge of ntal illness?
Lennok was lost in thought as he bolted the bullshit’s face with a bolt.
In any case, it’s ti to take off the camouflage status that has been put on many layers and go back to the face of Ban.
‘It’s like a mountain of work to do.’
The work of studying magic and analyzing the essence of alchemy obtained in the Dominion.
There are tis when you take Malabeth to a druggist to get dicine, and you have to show your face as Evan again to the university where you took a vacation.
In addition, I’ll have to listen to the story of seizing the shadow of the Balkans that Jenny talked about before leaving.
Aside from fatigue, Lennok struggled to gather his energy, although a schedule that would make him slump at the thought of it awaited him.
It’s been a long ti since I couldn’t tell Jenny because I didn’t have ti to contact her in the Dominion.
It seed that the first step would be to change into Ban’s face and then go to the bar to hear about what had happened.
‘I guess I’ll have to change the coat that has beco rags first. Is there a clothing store near the bar?’
Thinking so, I was walking towards District 49 when soone suddenly called from the side.
“I heard that he died sowhere, but was he still alive?”
“… … .”
“They didn’t show up until the pub was at that point, so rumors spread that he was assassinated without even knowing about it… … After all, it was just bullshit.”
Lennok, who had not been able to hear the words, turned his head.
The large bald head, who was chain-smoking, turned his head slightly to the gaze.
“… … I didn’t an to hear anything. I apologize if I offended you.”
“No, there’s sothing I want to ask you more than that.”
“Hmm, I don’t have much, but if I get ripped off like this… … .”
“Has sothing happened to Jenny’s bar?”
“what?”
The bald head widened his eyes over his sunglasses as if he was rather surprised by those words.
“Oh my God, District 49 is in an uproar over that, and you don’t know?”
“There are circumstances.”
“Then, the rumors that he had been away for a while were true… … .”
“Answer the question.”
At Lennox’s cold words, the man nodded calmly.
The long words were summarized by compressing only the core in an instant.
“Jenny started a business. And the cartel moved. Thanks to you, the bar is now a cataclysm.”
