322. Into the trap of the wild beast 1
Hind village training ground.
“Hyung, cheer up! little bit more! Almost done!”
“I haven’t done anything yet.”
The Magic Association was also completed. After a while, Kang Seung-hyun and his party visited the training ground for rest and skill training.
“Wow, it’s so wide here, but no one is there? not popular? The training ground next door is full.”
“There are usually a lot.”
It seems that using skills in the middle of the village is noticeable, but practicing in the forest or mountain is dangerous, so adventurers usually go to the training ground outside the village.
“Isn’t there anyone but us right now?”
“I paid for it. I rented it for a week, so you can use it as you like during that time.”
“Hurray! You should call your alter ego and escape.”
“In the meantime, practice airwork.”
Money is always right.
Kang Seung-hyeon rented the entire training center here with the intention of practicing comfortably.
If you say it like this, it sounds like something great.
“Hey, is the time finally here? It’s time to bring out a new secret technique for this body.”
“New Biggie? What?”
“The dark magic trick ‘Grim Reaper’s Death Side’!”
“It’s just a scythe sold at a local tool store!”
“In the meantime, Mr. Alec, please pull some grass. I will make homemade bandages.”
“Loser!”
In reality, it was no different than just playing.
“The furnace and pot for item crafting training are over there, but it doesn’t matter to us, you can test your newly acquired skills with this scarecrow.”
“That’s not a scarecrow, is it my clone?”
“Everyone works hard and gets hurt while doing it. I will treat you.”
Anyway, dimension movers don’t have to train as hard as Azul Continental people, and it’s enough to get used to the newly acquired skills.
“Whoop!”
Sueugh….
When Kim Ho-jung activated [Black Mist], black smoke wrapped around his arm and changed into a gauntlet.
“Goes! Dark Magic Secret! Grim Reaper’s Death Side!”
“Ugh! profit!”
“It’s like an uncle who came out to play with his nephew. Of course, Uncle Kim Ho-jung is my nephew.”
Kang!
Kang!
Kim Ho-jung was practicing to parry Alec’s scythe with it, but after swinging it a few times, he collapsed on the floor.
“Ahh…. It’s hard as expected.”
“Are you having a hard time?”
“huh. Every time I use a skill, my chest gets stuffy.”
“It’s a skill that reduces your mental strength just by activating it.”
Kim Ho-jeong’s current condition would be similar to that of a person with a fear of heights practicing flying.
A situation where even though you have the ability to fly, you cannot fly because you are afraid.
Kang Seung-hyun took out a mental recovery agent from his inventory.
“Eat this and do it.”
“Thank you, Mr. Kang.”
“you’re welcome.”
“It would have been better if I just gave it to you instead of pouring it on your head…”
About three days had passed since I practiced in this way.
“Lee Ji-ah, why don’t you train towards one-deal support?”
“Then shall we throw stars?”
“Rather than that, I’d recommend a bow or crossbow. It goes well with [Air Work] and other wind attribute skills.”
“Actually, the first weapon I used was a bow.”
Kang Seung-hyun gave advice to his colleagues and helped them train with the feeling of raising a bukkae.
“I knew it. Just looking at the skill aptitude, the shooter type is more suitable than the thief type… Why did you change?”
“Because my idol is a terrifying dagger thief. From now on, the single path of the dagger…”
“Yes, quickly get rid of it and return to the bow.”
It was while they were having a conversation.
“hot!”
Lee Ji-ah shouted loudly.
“trot! Wizards belonging to the Golden Mage Tower have arrived in Hind Village!”
“You are finally here.”
In fact, the reason Kang Seung-hyeon and his party were playing was because they were waiting for the golden tower.
‘How are you going to come out?’
If they come directly to the Magic Association, I plan to treat them with ‘my own’ courtesy, and if they go elsewhere first… Among them, if they go to the Adventurer’s Guild, I plan to hold a surprise party.
“Lee Ji-ah, where are those people heading now?”
“According to the Phrygian Communications Network…”
He is saying grandiosely that another alter ego is watching.
“I’m going to the Adventurers’ Guild.”
“is it so? Great. It wouldn’t have been fun if I had just come to the Magic Association.”
After all, this is the magic tower.
Kang Seung-hyun smiled and waved to the party.
“What are you going to do?”
“I declined the invitation from the Mage Tower because I was busy, but what would they think if I was playing like this?”
“You’d think it was trash.”
“So let’s pretend we’re busy.”
-“I expected it, but it was like that.”
“A guy named Kang Seung-hyun…wasn’t he a complete swindler?”
Wizards in golden robes from the Adventurers Guild muttered with arrogance.
As you can tell just by looking at their clothes, they are members of the Golden Magic Tower in the East, and have just met Liwen, the head of the branch, and left.
“How can a scum with low magic power become the head of the Magic Association?”
“If it’s true that you have less magical power than that branch manager, aren’t you just a bug, not a person?”
“What on earth was the Crimson Magic Tower thinking about giving such a human qualification!”
The wizards were furious with the information they heard from Liwen.
“Even if it wasn’t so, I didn’t like him, but he turned out better!”
I’m pissed off that he refused to invite me to the Golden Mage Tower, saying he was busy, but a piece of trash without even magic is sitting in the chair of the association?
“Is there such a windfall as being able to obtain the Magic Association without spending a single penny?”
“Give me a bowl of muk.”
“At this point, I hope the Crimson Mage Tower also pays a heavy fine.”
The reason why the Golden Mage Tower visited Hind Village was to get the cooperation of the Adventurer’s Guild to expel Kang Seung-hyeon, a fake wizard, and eat the Hind branch.
“I heard that that child is not even in the Magic Association.”
“Yeah, that would be it. How can a fake wizard do the work of the Magic Association?”
“Let’s go!”
The wizards of the Mage Tower visited Kang Seung-hyeon, spewing out their lives.
“Thanks to you, I lived…. Thank you very much.”
“As expected, Healer’s treatment is the best. The pain is completely healed!”
Kang Seung-hyeon spread out a small tent in the corner of the village and was treating people.
Most of them were commoners, but there were a mix of people who seemed to be wizards in between.
“Are you Kang Seung-hyun, in charge of the Hind Branch of the Magic Association?”
The magic tower people approached Kang Seung-hyeon without paying attention to the people around them.
“Yes, but.”
“I am Baya Citrine of the Golden Mage Tower.”
“nice to meet you. I am Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”
When Kang Seung-hyun smiled and asked for a handshake, Baya Citrin frowned and shook his hand.
“Do you know why I came?”
“well?”
“How dare you pretend to be a wizard for a piece of garbage without magic?”
All the wizards who came to the place with his anger showed hostility toward Kang Seung-hyun.
“Hick…”
“Healer.”
The villagers around them looked at Kang Seung-hyeon with frightened faces.
“Heung, the crimson tower is rotten as well! I don’t know how much he got paid, but to give the emblem to a guy like that.”
“Does that guy even have magic?”
“What can’t you measure?”
“I’ve been awarded since the time I was told to go to the Mage Tower by a person in charge of the Magic Association!”
The wizards of the Mage Tower were talking loudly, but Kang Seung-hyun looked at the patient’s condition with a calm face.
“Treatment is over. Apply the medicine to the wound every morning and evening.”
“Thank you, Healer.”
“Where are you going!”
Knock!
Baya Citrine grabbed Kang Seung-hyun by the collar.
“I know everything! Your magic power is so bad that you can’t become a wizard by normal means!”
“Ah, you must have heard from the adventurer’s guild, right?”
“Don’t talk back!”
Liwen can’t point out Kang Seung-hyeon because he has the wisdom of the Magic Tower, but any Magic Tower with equal authority can point it out.
“The verification of your mana has already been completed! It’s impossible for a scumbag like you to become a wizard!”
“I have no intention of changing my mind. I have no intention of hiding anything.”
Kang Seung-hyun laughed and continued the story.
“As you said, my magic power is so poor that I can’t become a wizard in the normal way. I said everything because I was lower than Branch Manager Liwen.”
It’s low, so it’s nothing at all, but there’s no need to go into detail.
“I got the Crimson Emblem by accident. I have the qualifications to be a member of the Crimson Mage Tower, but I am an honorary member, not an official member.”
“Are you sitting in the chair of the Association on such a subject?”
“You impostor! Is the Magic Association funny?”
“Don’t even think about skipping over this!”
Members of the Golden Mage Tower booed Kang Seung-hyeon.
Originally, wizards have strong pride and tend to judge people based on their talents, so if they think that the person in front of them is weaker than they are, they are a tribe that bites them terribly.
Even if he didn’t, he had a lot of resentment against Kang Seung-hyeon, but it turned out that he was a con man pretending to be a wizard?
‘You bastard without magic!’
‘Where are you being cheeky!’
‘Is he cheating on us?’
The wizards of the Golden Mage Tower rushed at Kang Seung-hyeon like beasts that found prey.
“Everyone please listen!”
“The manager of the current Magic Association’s Hind branch is a con man who doesn’t even know how to use proper magic!”
“I fooled everyone by conspiring with the Crimson Magic Tower!”
“Sooner or later, the Magic Association will punish them severely and replace them with a proper person in charge…”
It was then.
“What is it like?”
“You’re making a fuss about something new.”
“Do you think we are fools?”
Among Kang Seung-hyeon’s patients who had gathered around him, some wizards approached, glaring at the people of the Golden Mage Tower.
“No what the hell…”
“People who know already know.”
“We are wizards too. I’m poorer than you guys.”
Ordinary adventurers might not know this, but if you’re a wizard with some level of skill, you can tell just by looking at Kang Seung-hyeon that his magical power is terrible.
It wasn’t that there were no wizards living in the hidden village, so of course they also knew that Kang Seung-hyeon was not a proper wizard.
Nonetheless, no one opposed or protested Kang Seung-hyun’s appointment as the head of the association.
“But why were you keeping your mouth shut?”
“Isn’t that obvious?”
“If it wasn’t for Healer, no one would have built the Magic Association in this town!”
