The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 223

Episode 223. If you need an explanation (1)

Magic Tower.

The flowing atmosphere was unusual.

“Actually, I’m already worried…”

“How many people will shed tears this time.”

“I’m just about to give up on this conference. I am not confident.”

Because of the pressure of the upcoming regular conference?

I’m not saying it’s wrong.

To be precise, it was a little different.

What skilled mages fear is not the regular conference.

It was a pre-verification of the Topaz Hall that had to be passed before the conference.

Seok–

Climbing up and down the stairs of the Magic Tower.

The gaze naturally goes to the Topaz Hall.

Skilled wizards could not forget the sound they heard there.

“I still feel sick to my stomach…”

And exaggeration was added to words without feet.

“Did you guys hear that?”

“What do you hear?”

“No, I mean the ghost story of the Mage Tower…!”

“A ghost story? is this school I’m going to say something else.”

“No, it’s not a strange sound, did I hear it for sure? What the skilled wizards say! As soon as the regular conference got closer, the pitiful cries continued in that Topaz Hall.”

Even the sun chicks are too much.

The players were unfamiliar with everything about the Mage Tower. Moreover, apprentice wizards had little to do with regular conferences. It was natural that he did not know whether the preliminary verification was conducted at the Topaz Hall.

Thanks to this, ghost stories quickly spread among players.

But rumors go unnoticed.

The truth of the ghost story could not be confirmed.

Floating Garden.

“…Wait, is that true?”

“Hehehe of course!”

Linne, a skilled magician, breathes heavily.

Likewise, Jibril, a skilled mage, grabbed him by the shoulder and shook him.

“Chief Lee Ho-yeol is not attending the preliminary inspection? Really? Is it absolutely true?”

“excuse me. Ms. Jibril, take a moment to catch your breath…”

“This is a serious matter, Lynn!”

“It is true! I just checked and I’m on my way!”

Jibril had a different reason for questioning Rinne.

It was because Jibril wasn’t the type to be intimidated by the preliminary verification process.

Yes, it was because of the heat.

“In my common sense, it’s impossible!”

senior weight.

It was Chief Lee Ho-yeol who could handle the weight alone. This is something that can be understood just by personally signing the numerous application forms for the tower during the busy schedule where important ambassadors do not stop.

Chief Lee Ho-hyeol is not participating in the pre-verification?

“It means there must be a reason.”

Jibril muttered meaningfully.

“…what the heck is going on?”

Are you saying you are not participating in the pre-verification?

Apart from Jibril, the faces of some skilled mages turned bright. This is Chief Lee Ho-yeol, who brought tears to the magic tower. By the way, are you not participating in this pre-verification?

“Isn’t this our chance…?”

“…I changed my mind. I am applying for verification right away.”

“I was prepared to break Mr. Wa and did a good job of applying for pre-verification.”

But it was a huge misunderstanding.

That Ho-yeol was away.

It meant that he had prepared arrangements to fill his empty seat.

In the Topaz Hall, instead of tears, a bleak wind was blowing.

A gloomy voice resounded in the hallway of the Mage Tower.

“The next Andante Rus Skilled Mage.”

Yes.

A senior black mage wizard.

Mathis Dean Carr.

He is feared even by the same senior mages (actually, he is the only Banshee).

It was to replace the vacant seat of Hoyeol.

“Please don’t disappoint me, Antante.”

It was literally a mountain beyond the mountain for skilled mages…

Contradiction.

There is no better word to express my feelings right now.

“hmm.”

Green tea flavored cookies that I bought because they were on half price.

Although the taste of the cookie seems to be good.

It’s not that I’m not satisfied.

One of the chief’s duties.

It was because they were freed from the Topaz Hall pre-verification.

It was thanks to the quest given by the tower owner.

“I am very sorry.”

…Rather than that, get the subject right, Grandfel.

Doesn’t anyone look at me like I miss green tea cookies?

Naturally, this feeling was regret for the preliminary verification.

This guy’s responsibility.

Anyway, it’s such an important job for the chief.

Of course, I didn’t pass it on to anyone.

“I believe you will handle it well.”

I left my vacant seat to Matisse.

Marcelo, it wasn’t just one or two jobs he was still in charge of.

If it was Matisse, who was a strong candidate for the chief mage before Marcelo.

It’s about my void, enough to fill it up.

– “I will repay your trust.”

Originally, he was Matisse who did not have many external activities.

It’s like you’ve taken on a preliminary inspection for the first time in your life at my request.

In that sense, I should treat Matisse to a cup of tea.

I muttered.

“There are still a lot of unnecessary procedures in the Magic Tower.”

No matter how much the quest was hung.

Grandfell was not a great person who would leave his burden on others without a rational reason. Nevertheless, there was no particular reason for asking Matisse for a preliminary verification.

It was because of the rules of the Magic Tower.

“I will not comply this time.”

okay. You have to obey, is there anything special? Grand Fel.

It’s strange even if you think about it.

Regular conference participants are in charge of pre-verification.

‘That’s beyond the level of remoteness.’

By the way, participating in regular conferences?

really my seller

I checked the quest window.

[Quest: Establishment of School]

You who have achieved lofty magical achievements.

Prove your achievements at regular conferences.

Announce the creation of a new magic.

—Present ‘reversal magic’ at regular conferences. (In progress)

Did you recognize it from when it turned into a cat?!

Top lord was really sly.

I would say that he uses Sammosa Jo very well.

Even the creation of a school is something I’m reluctant to do.

‘No matter how much it is, it will be better than the next tower master…’

Unbeknownst to me.

Because I was thinking such a weak thought.

By the way, what kind of conference presentation are you talking about?

‘I don’t know if that’s a really great achievement.’

reverse magic.

that’s literally

It just happened because I did it backwards.

‘What kind of school did you found and even announced…’

But, of course, Topju.

Marcelo was even more sincere.

Marcelo’s highly recalled voice that suddenly comes to mind.

-“According to the rules, in order to rise to the position of tower owner, you must prove your achievements and contribute to the mage tower. If it’s Lord’s reversal magic, it will be enough to fill the contribution value. That’s a level of magic that can’t be compared to the theoretical magic I created.”

No, I don’t have the slightest desire for promotion, Marcelo?

I feel like I want to give up on this kind of quest.

However, after hearing Marcelo’s words, I was stunned without realizing it.

‘… Contribute.’

You mean [relationship] and [influence], right?

The human heart is so deceitful.

The desire to make the most of everything, if possible.

At the same time, Na Lee Ho-yeol’s lust for water soared.

‘If you reach the maximum and activate the [Permission] function…’

Can you literally shake the magic tower?

I suddenly remembered the determination I had when I stepped into the Magic Tower.

If that day really comes.

I will use the magic tools piled up in the Mage Tower freely.

I promised you, maybe.

Of course, there was no way this guy’s pride would allow him to root out the mage tower for self-interest, but… You know it from Yusra and Muon, and you’ve experienced it, right?

There is nothing to lose because the relationship and influence are high.

‘Let’s try it.’

Actually, it was a long time ago that I had a positive mindset.

The problem is that eating your mind doesn’t solve it.

Even so, how should I announce it?

‘Even Marcelo and the tower owner couldn’t understand.’

No matter how kindly I try to explain it.

I wonder if the magicians who attended the regular conference could understand that.

The problem does not end there.

If it was the Grandfel I knew, I’d definitely get another drink there.

“There is no magic more intuitive than this.”

I’m afraid the audience will give me a face to face that I don’t understand.

It’s already worrying ahead.

That’s why I was doing my best.

It means that you are seriously preparing for the presentation.

“But I will understand.”

Furthermore, the Mage Tower is not the closed Mage Tower of the past.

More players than before will participate in regular conferences as wizards. Thanks to that, my every move will spread to the world through the fingers of the players.

‘…Please don’t do anything embarrassing.’

Anyway, it’s an unknown life.

In reality, it’s a non-trivial reversal magic.

With that, you can create a school in the Mage Tower.

Wouldn’t it be strange to call it the Bubble School?

I’m still getting frustrated.

Suseusuk—

From now on, I had to wrap that bubble as convincingly as possible.

in front of a vast Crystal Hall audience.

It means that I need to paint my bubble with gold.

I swung my feather pen and swallowed my saliva.

…The green tea cookies are particularly bitter.

On the day of regular conference.

The wizards who checked the conference schedule were shocked.

“The last order is…?”

“Chief Hoyeol Lee’s announcement?!”

“Is this why you didn’t participate in the preliminary inspection!”

“what? Chief Lee Ho-yeol made an announcement?!”

The skilled mages, including Jibril and Klee, were astonished. Isn’t it Chief Lee Ho-yeol, who holds so many positions besides the Chief of the Magic Tower?

Claire was genuinely impressed.

“You are really great. It’s kind of respectful.”

How to grow non-herb.

It was Klee who experienced the pressure of preparing for a regular conference presentation. Not to mention the prior verification, my mind was extremely complicated until the moment I stood on the podium in the Crystal Hall.

“When I eat and when I sleep. The thought of research couldn’t leave my head… By the way, Chief Lee Ho-yeol was preparing for the conference presentation while carrying out other schedules, right?”

Lynn, who had been silent, grabbed the pod.

“no. Strictly speaking, that’s not the case, Miss Klee.”

“…yes?”

“Why did Chief Lee not participate in this pre-check? Miss Jibril?! Why are you pinching my forearm all of a sudden?”

Jibril poured out contemptuous eyes at Rinne.

“If you are a skilled mage, you should be familiar with the rules of the Mage Tower, Linne. Do you have common sense to think that conference presenters can pre-verify other people’s research?”

“…ah.”

“You were a bit hasty with this remark, Ms. Lynn.”

What a damn foolish remark, even Clé.

Did you add a word to Linne?

When Rinne kept her mouth shut, Jibril’s face became serious again.

“I’m sure you’ll make a great presentation if you’re the chief!”

apprentice wizard.

The thoughts of the players were not very different.

The regular conference hasn’t even started yet.

The player community was full of posts related to the conference.

──────

The official schedule is out hahahahahaha

Is this a true story? It’s the announcement of chief Lee Ho-yeol,

is the big one coming at the end???

It seems to decorate the finale for sure ㅋ ㅋ

Just Homen

──────

It was itchy, but no one could open their mouths recklessly.

As I said, there was plenty of time before the opening.

For some reason, all the senior mages were seated in the Crystal Hall.

someone whispered

“…I guess it’s not really a normal announcement.”

Even the elder mage Yugweed.

Thanks to the regular society.

It started with a bubble of high expectations.

.

.

.

As for the result.

The ripple effect of this regular conference was the best ever.

A magical achievement, of course.

Beyond the Mage Tower, even in public.

To everyone in the world, what 『reversal magic』 is.

Because it was clearly stamped.

Yes.

It started with a small fuss.

last order.

The moment Ho-yeol stood on the podium.

someone murmured softly.

“…Cloudy?”
