Infinite Mage - Chapter 1019

Undercover work (3)

Sirone was not in a good mood.

‘It’s a random attack.’

To be honest, it was an eerie energy, and the destructive power it contained must have been beyond imagination.

‘The ship almost sank.’

If they had been suppressed before the battle began, the lives of the passengers would have been in danger.

There was also anger behind Sirone’s unusual behavior.

‘Minister of Foreign Affairs Cairns.’

I know roughly through Omega, but Cairns was quite young.

‘The records of Cairns that I remember are from the age of twelve. Of course, I wasn’t an average player even then.’

I couldn’t even imagine how things would have evolved in the 22 years since then.

Sirone massaged his eyes.

“I’m tired.”

I had no intention of getting deeply involved in politics, but what bothered me was Rangi.

‘I said it was an object. ‘I’m talking about people.’

Even when world beauty contests were held, she entertained high-ranking officials, so that in itself was not unusual.

However, the smile she showed at the end was sincere without any lies.

‘I throw my heart away.’

Wouldn’t that be enough reason to get involved in politics?

Arachne sailboat.

“sorry.”

Cairns was drinking with dancers in a huge room decorated like a palace.

“Do you even know how to say something like that?” Among the dancers smiling softly, Cairns’ eyes were as cold as ice.

Benahar bowed his head again.

“I was mistaken. “The inaction of Sirone, whom I met in person, is beyond what I could imagine.”

“How do you know that? “You said you didn’t even fight?”

That was half true.

If the battle actually took place, it could have been a good fight, but it would be meaningless now.

‘My heart was broken. His mind… is not human.’

No matter how many people’s lives are compressed into war, the level of mental intensity is impossible.

Regardless of their level of skill, how mentally disciplined are those who can ‘battle’ Shirone?

‘Training? No, that’s crazy. Only in the realm of madness will you be able to confront Sirone.’

“Anyway, it’s okay.”

Cairns did not regret the loss.

“I have no choice but to wait for the right time. Now you go back. And say rangio.”

“Well…

Benahar said with a perplexed expression as several facts collided in his head.

“Things got a little messy.”

Cairns looked at Benahar with one eyebrow raised and gave a meaningless cynicism.

That evening.

Sirone left the work to Poine and headed to Arachne’s sailboat alone.

As I flew into the sky and jumped over a distance of 700 meters, I saw the deck where the banquet was being held.

Everyone was working, and a feast of delicacies that could not be found on other ships followed.

Sirone landed among the people drinking in the cozy moonlight of the windless area.

“Whoa.”

They weren’t surprised by the magic.

However, they only looked displeased at the fact that they had broken the mutual agreement and invaded the ship through the sky.

“What are you? I wonder where I am now…

Just as the man wearing the medal was about to take a step, the guard wizard stopped him.

“Vice Minister, the author is Sirone.”

“Odaeseong?”

Although his capabilities were far below Cairns, the Vice Minister had the weapon of experience.

“Hmm, I see the star of the ivory tower.” Even if it was a thorn in the eye of a politician, there was nothing good about being associated with the ivory tower.

At least until the temple opens.

“I came to see Cairns. “Where are they now?”

‘The young guy just called the minister’s name?’ He wasn’t one to be swayed by trivial provocations, but public matters had to be addressed.

“Since you did not attend the banquet, you will be in the inner room. “But what’s going on?”

“I want to ask you a few things. If you’re not going to guide me, get out of the way.”

“Whoa.”

As the wine he drank rose to its peak, the deputy took a long breath and spit out the drunkenness.

“Well, that’s good. You shouldn’t criticize what the star in the ivory tower is doing. But from what I heard, maritime exchange was first suggested by Sirone, right? And Arachne willingly responded. But now…

“Who ordered the banquet?” The Vice Minister furrowed his brow.

“An agreement has been reached on the comprehensive investigation

. Are you dissatisfied with your country consuming your own food?”

“Why do you have to do that on deck?”

The Vice Minister raised his drink and looked at the night sky.

“Well… the weather is nice and the moon is bright.”

The moment Sirone’s eyes lit up, he immediately corrected his posture and continued speaking.

“I know what you mean. Other pears are not having enough to eat. However, we are also an elite team that takes on important missions for the nation. I have my own routine and my goals are clear. This kind of emotional approach does not absolve you of breaking the agreement.”

As a Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, he was strong in psychological warfare as well as verbal skills.

“It’s an agreement.”

Thinking about what Benahar did during the day, Sirone was shocked.

“great. “I apologize for breaking the agreement.”

The nobles were in an uproar.

“No, whatever.”

The Vice Minister tried hard to hold back his laughter, but he couldn’t help but feel the strain on his shoulders.

“It’s such a minor problem, isn’t it? The relationship between the Ivory Tower and Arachne…

The moment he saw Sirone’s eyes, the Vice Minister’s heart sank.

“Now then, let’s hear from the Minister how well he is keeping the agreement. Could it be something serious? But if there was something that seriously broke trust…

the nobles couldn’t even blink.

“Don’t expect this ship to be at sea tomorrow morning.”

After saying that, Sirone turned around and the Deputy Minister held out his hand with an expression that looked like he had been hit by a hammer.

“No, wait a minute. “No star, Sirone.”

“Enjoy the banquet.”

Sirone turned his head and looked at the people.

“Please wait here without leaving a single person behind. So that you don’t have to worry about it when you come back.”

Benahar opened the door to the inner room and came out.

“What’s going on?”

The moment I found Sirone, I started to break into a cold sweat as I remembered what happened during the day.

“Ah Sirone.”

“As I announced earlier, I came to meet the minister. “They say he’s in the boudoir now.”

Benahar looked at the deputy beyond Sirone.

‘No no!’

The deputy officer pretended to hit his neck with the blade of his hand and continued to use his mouth without making a sound.

‘You can’t go to the minister. I’m telling you to come up with any excuse, whether it’s diarrhea or an illness!’

I roughly understood the meaning, but Benahar had no choice.

“Please come. “I will guide you.”

The Vice Minister, who knew his personality, looked at him with a puzzled expression, but ultimately could not make eye contact.

The nobles who remained after the door closed felt chilled in the warm temperature of the southern country.

“…Holy shit.”

“Forgive me for what happened during the day. “I didn’t know the person and ended up installing it.”

Benahar made sure his mistakes did not interfere with Cairns’ work.

However, on the other hand, there was also respect for Sirone as a magician.

“Someone could have been hurt. “If you are dissatisfied with me, please call me separately next time.”

“…That won’t happen.” When I opened the door, Cairns and Rangi were sitting side by side at a table in a luxury restaurant.

“Rangi?”

Sirone asked back, but Benahar just lowered his head and grabbed the doorknob.

“Have a good time.”

As Sirone approached, hearing the door close, Cairns stood up.

“welcome. Let’s meet the star of the ivory tower. As I heard through rumors, he is quite handsome…

“What happened to Rangi?”

I had no intention of ignoring Cairns, but calling Rangi would certainly not have been a favor.

“haha! You said you had a prior contract. Actually, since I don’t know Rangi, I called her because I thought it would be a good idea to sit down with her. “I’m sorry if you were offended.”

“Sirone…

Rangi’s appearance was more beautiful than usual, but the window to her heart was already closed.

“Let’s listen first.”

When we settled down across from Cairns, the staff brought us food as if they had been waiting for us.

“Outside, the banquet is in full swing and

“Sorry!”

When Cairns put his hands on the table and lowered his head, the employees stopped moving.

“It’s all my fault. I apologize for violating the daytime work, banquet, and agreement. “I take full responsibility.” It is certainly excellent to have guessed Sirone’s intentions without seeing it, but…

“How are you going to take responsibility?”

Words are worthless without action.

“We will open up food. We are also in a difficult situation, so we have to share. We will conduct a full investigation. “I have troops, so it doesn’t matter if you use them as security personnel.”

“Hmm.”

Sirone crossed her legs.

“What is Arachne aiming for on this voyage?”

“…I will confess it. As you know, Di Onas is a country founded by pirates. The king rules with an iron fist and the majority of the people make a living through maritime plunder. “We would like to gain one thing in return for recognizing Dionas as the official state of Kartsia.”

“What is that one thing?”

“Relics of the ancient civilization Myka.”

The moment the words ended, Sirone felt eerie.

“that is??????

When I searched the 5-dimensional cube that contains all the movements of atoms that have occurred since the beginning.

“what?”

Because there were no records.

“I don’t know the details. No one knows. “The only theory going around is that it was a civilization that existed somewhere in the South Pacific a long time ago and is now submerged under the sea.”

“But Dionas knows?” Since being flat was proof that he was excited, Cairns continued speaking without showing it.

“Cartesia is a periphery of the world, so you may be unfamiliar with it. However, the Ten Kingdoms of the Archipelago have been investigating Maika’s relics for a long time. But… after World War II, Dionas was in an unusual situation. Even if there is no damage from the tsunami, it is awkward that there is no damage from the demons.”

How should I accept this?

‘What is not in Omega does not exist. Therefore, the Myka civilization is nothing more than a myth.’

Even if you think…

‘But such myths should be recorded. ‘Why don’t I know?’

The fact that the general public knows but Shirone doesn’t means that it was only removed from Omega.

‘cancellation? No, that’s impossible. Even if you reset, the erase log remains.’

It wasn’t a logical inference.

‘The outside world.’

As a result of removing all the categories that existed in Omega, there was only one thing left.

‘It is connected to the outside world in some way. Otherwise, you can’t bypass Omega.’

After thinking about that, Sirone asked.

“Even if Dionas found a relic or trace, would he really want to share it?”

“That’s why I’m going. Armed with enormous treasures, weapons and the most beautiful woman.”

These were the things that would come out if a thorough investigation was conducted.

“You’re only going to appease that much? “Aren’t you looking down on your opponent too much, even if he or she is a pirate?”

“That could be true. So how about saying it this way? King Kalt of Dionas…

Cairns hugged Rangi’s waist.

“What if you are crazy about Miss Arachne? So much so that they actually formed an armed fleet and attempted an invasion.”

It is a pirate after all.

“Of course, Rangi is a talent that is a waste of money. But the temple will be opening soon, so shouldn’t we do our best?”

‘This is why I didn’t want to get involved in politics.’

This is because in order to achieve what you want, you have to see a lot of things you don’t want.

“Hands off. Mr. Rangi is also my friend. “If you do something like that in front of me, I won’t forgive you.”

“It’s still mine, right?”

Cairns, who pressed his body even closer to Rangi, spoke with his eyes intent on winning.

“It is also necessary for negotiations. But… if Wu Daeseong helps me, I might not need Langi.”

I thought it was over.

‘Is there anything in the world that can’t be done? With this, Odaeseong will come under me.’

“Cairns.”

Sirone burst into laughter.

“Have you ever heard the name Fermi?”

Cairns clearly has outstanding abilities in understanding humans and in technology that disrupts systems, but…

“Yes? No.”

Compared to the drug lord who had even erased his memory of what kind of deal he had made, he was like a baby.

“I need to learn a lot from that guy.”
