Episode 343. In my world, (2)
the top floor of the magic tower.
“I’m home!”
The place where this quest took place was one of the Hundred Thousand Caves in the Zero Mountains.
It didn’t make a fuss.
At the end of the quest, the cave itself suddenly collapsed, and I had no choice but to return to the magic tower through the portal. More than anything else, Jesse’s chapped cheeks seemed to indicate the level of difficulty.
“It’s been quiet today…?”
Out of Mary’s field of vision.
The round back of Jesse’s head looks around.
It was as Jesse said.
“It’s a rare thing.”
It wouldn’t be strange if the elder mage Yugwid or Chief Marcelo were away at any time because of the Mage Tower’s work. No, it was rare for them to show their faces on the top floor of the magic tower in the first place.
however.
“No. A cat too.”
It took a while for Jesse to blurt his words.
Gooooo—
“!!”
Suddenly, magic power shook the top floor.
Mary was taken aback.
The difficulty of this magical manifestation was no joke.
‘…Did they bury the portal?’
Like trap magic.
It was a portal that appeared when certain conditions were met.
To think that he could secretly bury high-level magic of the level of a portal so that even he wouldn’t notice. In Mary’s knowledge, there was only one person who had the level of manifestation power of the mage tower.
Chief of the Mage Tower.
At the same time, Cloudy’s family head.
The man called Grandfel or Lee Ho-yeol.
said Mary calmly.
“It looks like Chief Lee Ho-yeol has returned.”
“Oh, I see…!”
“…?”
Mary was slightly taken aback by the calm response.
‘I thought you’d be a little more happy.’
He was not the kind of person who would be away for a week without a word.
It means that something must have happened.
Apart from faith, the only ones who worried were either himself or Jesse.
As proof of that, Jessie never let go of her weird product – her smartphone – during class breaks.
Jesse himself was puzzled.
“…Something doesn’t feel right.”
I should be a little more happy.
A bigger concern came to mind, eating up the happy feelings.
Mary didn’t ask Jesse why.
Because we’re not that close.
just tell
“Then I guess I have no choice but to step into the arrangement. It seems that Chief Lee Ho-yeol has something he wants from us. Are you okay, Miss Jesse Heinness?”
Mary utters the words and at the same time emits the magic of twilight.
I checked the magic tower’s magical response.
But there was no response back.
What he meant was simple.
That there is not a single wizard in the Mage Tower.
“Yes, I like it.”
Jerbuck—
Jesse nodded and immediately followed Mary and entered the portal.
Before long, the scenery changed and what came into view was the Zero Mountains.
For some reason, the Zero Mountains are in ruins.
and.
“!”
A gorgeous uniform that you won’t be able to forget once you see it.
A bloody cat wrapped in a jacket of dawn. Before Mary could recognize the cat, Jessie ran out and took the cat wrapped in her jacket in her arms.
The cat, noticing the warmth, spoke softly.
“…Nyan.”
no i cried
It was the shameless performance of the cat Topju.
Because he didn’t want to reveal his identity to Jesse.
But since when?
“…Don’t say anything.”
You knew everything earlier, disciple.
Rather, it was you who pretended not to know.
Only then did Topju say it properly.
“To deceive the master, you are a disciple who is reckless.”
“Don’t talk.”
“Isn’t it so much fun to see the teacher smoking a joke? Bad taste. I’m ashamed of myself for swinging my forepaw here and there because I was deceived by your acting. Only then did I, who smoked jokes to get snacks…”
“Don’t tell me…!”
purple aura.
Twilight magic flows from Jesse.
Healing magic with the magic of twilight wrapped around the body of the tower owner.
However, the healing magic did not permeate the tower owner’s body.
The tower owner looks at the magic of twilight.
“It’s almost blinding.”
“….”
“In the end, you have achieved amazing achievements as a disciple of mine.”
The power of manifestation of magic with the magic of twilight is ten times greater than that of magic without it. It means that Jesse’s healing magic, which is only a beginner level because he is not a major, has an effect equal to that of Velier, the best healing wizard in the Mage Tower.
“…why?”
However, it had no effect on the top lord.
Jesse looks up at Mary with trembling eyes.
Mary knew.
The fact that the head of the tower had already passed away.
No healing magic can bring the dead back to life.
But even Mary couldn’t explain it.
It was the tower owner who continued to speak even after death.
“Praise is poison to a wizard. So I desperately endured it. In the end, you make me spit out like a cat like this. Jessi, you must have suffered a lot because of the poor teacher.”
Is it because of strong thoughts?
If not, is it because of magic you don’t even know about?
Mary couldn’t tell.
I was just watching.
Did you intuit the end of the Tower Master?
Jessie Heinness hugs the tower owner even harder.
And for some reason, Topju smiled bitterly.
The cat said in silence.
“…As expected, you are the chief with many sins.”

Sword.
ironic
The light, which was normally dim, was shining more brilliantly than anything else at this moment. I could intuit. That this is the true crossroads of life and death.
Taemin Nam.
[Caution: Excessive strength will cause physical damage.]
Hisagi.
[Caution: Magic that cannot be controlled by muscle power flows backward.]
And Leonie.
[Caution: HP is too low.]
Barbarian magician Berserker.
Different messages come to mind for each of the three people.
It was a warning message that was as individual as the class.
They had one thing in common.
It’s a candle that won’t be strange when everyone goes out.
Paba Park—!
However, now that he had stomped his feet and jumped on the back of the dragon’s head, he couldn’t turn back even if he regretted it. Of course, there was no regret left for everyone.
It was because he knew.
The fierce swordsmanship that always shone brightly.
What kind of fight have you been fighting all this time?
It was only when the shadow of death fell that I truly realized it.
There was no shortcut on the sword road.
I really had to walk the crossroads of life and death, but my sword skills became clearer.
That’s why I couldn’t help but think.
What kind of path did Ho-yeol walk alone?
And this moment when the whereabouts are unknown.
What kind of road are you walking alone?
Back!
It was never a bad idea.
Yes, it is a kind of intense motivation.
Because each of them became the driving force that made them hold their weapons tighter.
bang-!
It’s because of the giant dragon’s body.
The situation in front of the roar was not visible at all.
Even now when the top owner threw herself out to attract attention.
Harkon and Nam Tae-min Hisagi Leoni did not know the exact situation.
It was just guessing.
‘It touches. To the dragon.’
No matter how quickly he reacts, the current blow will definitely hit. crossroads of life. His intuition, sharper than usual, was not wrong.
hooked!
Pupuk!
hooked!
four directions.
Sword Greatsword Twin Swords Spear.
Four types of weapons pierce Yunaxus’ scales and become lodged in his flesh.
The dragon skin, which is said to deflect any attack, was only cut by the sword?
No, it wasn’t just black magic.
‘…was it easier to cut than I thought?’
‘Was it weak?’
‘No, that’s not it…!!’
‘It’s magic magic.’
It was thanks to the magic bombardment of the senior wizards, which seemed to have no effect, that the dragon skin’s defense was pushed to the bottom.
Of course, compared to the huge body that was emphasized earlier, the wounds now were nothing more than minor scratches.
However, it was not a damage that could be ignored. In any case, it was the first effective hit that the Allies of the Crusade gave to Yunaxus.
Big and big!
As evidence of that, Yunaxus began twisting his body.
Harkon shouted.
“Gentlemen. From now on, I have nothing to say to you.”
A battlefield where you have to risk your life in an instant.
What to trust at the crossroads of life and death.
It is only the decision made by one’s own intuition.
Waiting for someone else’s order was tantamount to committing suicide.
“but.”
Harkon wanted to add this one word.
“You have been through a lot during this time. Thank you for following me from the bottom of my heart.”
As soon as the three heard it, they hated it.
“Please don’t raise a flag like that, Master…!!”
I was prepared to die, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to die.
Everyone should live if they can.
Of course, Harkon didn’t mean that.
“flag…? What is it?”
Because it was just a word in a really pure sense.
Even when covered in blood, he climbed the mountain without collapsing.
After all, it was a tribute to those who took a blow from the dragon.
The situation was just a problem.
no matter what you say
A hopeless situation that becomes a flag.
Nam Tae-min smiled.
“As for the flag… I’ll let you know if I survive!”
“Nam Tae-min, isn’t that also a flag?”
“E-Two. Then cancel.”
“Anyway, if you can’t talk.”
yet.
Sweet love love—!
The sound of a strong wind blowing through the eardrums.
The tail of Yunaxus flew like a whip.
Nam Tae-min was the first to move.
Knight magician Berserker.
A party that gave away even the balance of a tank deal.
At least the only one who could play the role of a tanker was a barbarian.
[Berring Explosion] activated.
Nam Tae-min howls wildly.
[Eunaxus, the elder dragon who swallowed the fruit, resists the ‘provocation’.]
Level 2500 vs level 600
It’s a matter of course, but I didn’t expect the status abnormality to work.
I had to focus his aggro on myself in a different way.
“Big.”
The boiling wildness moves in search of an answer instinctively.
Whoops!!
Even when it’s not enough to avoid it.
Rather, he thrust his greatsword into his skin even more.
Even Harkon, who was avoiding that action, had no choice but to stop.
“That’s it…!”
Doesn’t it look like a great sword driven into a stake?
Of course, the effect was great.
A slightly changed Dragon Fear.
Kwwawwa!
Even if it’s not a reverse, it seems to have touched a nerve.
However, it was a weapon like life for a warrior.
In particular, a greatsword of that size could serve as a shield.
‘How could you make such a decision…?’
Harkon’s doubts did not last long.
Because I heard a sigh from beside me.
Hisagi and Leoni spit it out without asking anyone first.
“I’m thinking of getting another weapon from that muscle mass.”
“As expected, he is in charge of the deficit of the giant coalition.”
“…!”
Yes.
[Berring], becoming closer to beasts than humans.
What is a great sword to Nam Tae-min who activated [Berser]?
In fact, it was no different from heavy shackles.
Papababak!
Nam Tae-min accelerates on all fours as if to prove that fact.
Blame—!
It jumps like a beast to avoid its tail.
Formidable jump power.
The wildly strengthened muscles made it possible.
Of course, Nam Tae-min did not stop at avoiding it.
As soon as he landed, he grabbed the scales with his gripped muscles and veins.
Kudo-!
The scales were ripped off.
As much as its strength, its cross section was no different from that of a sharp sword.
As a result, blood gushed out from Nam Tae-min’s upper body, but it did not stop.
“Grrr!!”
He tore off the scales with devastating persistence.
Harkon swallowed his saliva.
‘I… was looking down on me without even realizing it.’
Virtual reality game Arcana Continent Electric.
Before the cataclysm, Harkon had nodded to the truth that the continent of Arcana was just a game for adventurers. That’s why he showed such a light attitude.
But not as much as these.
Who can doubt their sincerity any longer?
It must be a change that came at some point.
Harkon, who had taught countless knights in the Lion Heart Knights, knew. The fact that you can train other people’s bodies, but you can’t train their minds.
In that sense…
“As expected, Kyung is amazing.”
I couldn’t help but swallow admiration for Ho-yeol’s pride.
Sreung!
Of course, in the meantime, the action does not stop.
At this moment, everyone was testing their limits.
This means that we cannot waste the golden opportunity we have gained thanks to this.
Parbat!
Harkon Hisagi Leoni runs with the huge body of Yunaxus as a battlefield. As I said, there is no strategy. Just dodge and slash as your senses lead you!
The look was not flashy at all.
was just desperate
Enough to keep the mouths of those watching.
To the extent that a sigh came out of Nam Chul-min’s mouth.
“now stop…!”
There was no need to bring up the analyst’s knowledge.
Taemin, who is rapidly slower than the cumulative damage from Yunaxus.
Likewise, the deteriorating condition of the three people was more noticeable.
“…there’s no way we can beat a monster like that.”
It was the time everyone who watched was thinking.
Same sight as everyone.
“I will start the examination from this time.”
The one who looked at it from a different point of view was revealed.
“I will highly evaluate movements based on Nam Tae-min’s instincts. However, it remains to be seen whether that instinct will be exercised in normal times. Still, it was enough activity. More than anything else, I will value the improvisation.”
“…!”
Face to face with the dragon.
Meanwhile, top rankers.
“Hisagi Leoni. It wasn’t bad to be faithful to the role. It is worthy of praise for overcoming the disadvantages of the opposite sex and reaching this position in itself.”
Who can criticize Leoni Hisagi harshly?
It was unique both in reality and on the Arcana continent.
“…!!”
Yes, it is Lee Ho-yeol.
“Finally Harkon.”
“…kyung.”
“You don’t need any examination.”
“Haha… is that so?”
“finally.”
Hoyeol’s gaze moves slowly.
without recognizing yourself.
It spits at the dragon grinding its teeth.
“It’s noisy, Yunaxus.”
spoke in a gentle voice.
“How about we stop crying first?”
Then a message popped up.
[The elder dragon Yunaxus, who swallowed the fruit, ‘calms down’.]
“…!!!”
in front of everyone.
