334. Let’s start with an easy start. 1
Golden Mage Tower Central Building Conference Room.
Horok.
“The tea tastes great.”
“Because Huhu tea leaves have no place to follow the east.”
Pillars and chandeliers adorned with ornate jewels.
Luxurious furniture and grandiose statues that are burdensome.
is growing – is growing.
A gramophone installed in one corner, constantly playing beautiful music.
“This is all thanks to the fact that the Wireia family liked the necklace made this time.”
“Seeing that you even provided a dessert worthy of the excellent tea leaves, you seem very satisfied.”
Even a group of people enjoying tea time at a table in the middle.
Rather than a meeting room, the scenery that should be called a drawing room of a noble family spread out.
It would be frightening to see it in other mage towers, but it is nothing strange in the golden mage tower, which has been occupied by the Lopyarmus family for decades.
“Dail-nim, I heard that your student produced a great piece of work this time.”
“ha ha ha. As always, hard work paid off. Willow-sama said that one of her disciples signed an exclusive contract with the Miyana family.”
“It is overrated. It was luck.”
On the outside, it’s the Lofiarmus family who smile hahahoho and seem to be on good terms.
‘Tsk, something like a serpent. Like a ghost, he noticed that I put my hand into his work.’
‘Hey old man. Among the families that recently signed a contract, he only mentioned the Miyana family, which is the lowest level. I should praise you, but your pride hurts, right?’
In reality, they are a family of soybean flour that can’t eat each other.
“By the way, did you say ‘Kang Soong-hyeon’…?”
“It must be Kang Seung-hyun. maybe.”
“Is it? It’s a name that’s there anyway.”
‘Dail Lophemus’, the deputy master of the magic tower and a member of the Lophemus family, sneered and brought the teacup to his lips.
“The young guy acted arrogantly with the crimson magic tower on his back, but in the end he bowed his head.”
“Even if you have the qualifications in your hands, you must have realized that fakes can’t beat real ones.’
Likewise, the deputy master ‘Amelie Lofiarmus’ agreed with Dail’s words.
While saying that, it’s a bonus that he took a pose covering his mouth with a fan unique to nobles.
“I’m sure he’s coming to ask me not to touch the position of Vona Mana Manager… I can’t let a trivial person with no magic power become a member of the Magic Association.”
‘Besseia Lofiarmus’, who was sitting on the other side of Amelie, pounded on the table and spat out in a nervous tone.
“No, let’s leave the Hind branch alone.”
“Leave it?”
“From what I’ve heard, Kang Seung-hyeon has a pretty good reputation in that village. What do the lower classes of the West know?”
“I guess so. Compared to the east, it’s a poor quality area.”
Amelie’s next seat, Willow Lofiarmus, spat out the words roughly.
“Forcibly kicking out the reputable person in charge and stealing the branch would only ruin the image of the Mage Tower, and it’s not a very coveted area.”
“you’re right!”
“Of course, Kang Seung-hyun doesn’t know that, and he will beg us and beg us.”
“According to Miss Matiana, she is a fairly skilled healer, so how about doing it this way?”
‘Luge Lopyarmus’, who was next to Dail, raised an opinion.
“On the condition that the Hind branch let go of the person in charge, special treatment and free treatment will be given to members of the Golden Mage Tower.”
Currently, the Golden Mage Tower judged that there would be no benefit from touching the Hind branch.
However, since Kang Seung-hyeon wouldn’t think of it that far, he planned to use that to extract some kind of benefit.
“Very good. I agree with that opinion.”
“I also agree. It’s food that we can’t eat because it’s spoiled, but they’re begging us to sell it.”
“Increase the reputation and welfare of the Mage Tower without spending a single penny. There is no better conclusion than this.”
The meeting of the Lofiarmus family goes like this.
Like a holiday family get-together, they huddled together to make appropriate conclusions and inform each other.
It was unbelievable that it was a meeting of high-ranking people in the Mage Tower, but it was a common occurrence in the Golden Mage Tower.
“I got a call saying that he left the Hind branch earlier, so it will take three or three days for Kang Seung-hyun to arrive.”
“I prepare things like a welcome ceremony slowly.”
“As soon as you enter, you will be overwhelmed by the atmosphere of the Mage Tower, and it will be a welcoming ceremony that makes you shudder.”
“My magic resistance is so low that my magic resistance won’t change, so I don’t know if this makes me cry out of fear.”
“It smells so good. How about ordering some more tea leaves?”
“Let’s get a new teacup to match the tea, right? Someone I know well…”
The submasters were exchanging jokes and trying to wrap up the meeting properly.
smart.
A knock was heard from outside the door.
“Come in.”
“Boomaster, I am reporting this as an urgent matter.”
“What’s going on? We’re in the middle of an important meeting right now.”
“That’s… Kang Seung-hyun just arrived.”
“hmm? Are you talking about Kang Seung-hyun? If that’s the case, I just got it.”
“That’s not it… The human Kang Seung-hyeon has just arrived at the Magic Tower.”
“what?”
“Pooh!”
The submasters who were drinking tea stood up in amazement.
One was drinking tea, so he squirted it out.
“What does that mean?”
“It’s been 30 minutes since we received the news of our departure from the Hind branch… no, it’s not even 20 minutes!”
This makes no sense in common sense.
The Golden Mage Tower received a call about 20 minutes ago that Kang Seung-hyun and his party were leaving.
– I’ll leave now.
Not by letter, but by correspondence.
Even directly from Kang Seung-hyun himself.
“But how could I have arrived already!”
You must have been in Hind Village 20 minutes ago, right? Have you reached the Golden Mage Tower?
‘Nonsense!’
Due to the poor transportation characteristics of the Azul Continent, it often takes more than an hour to get to the next town.
“It wasn’t that he came on foot, he accompanied the members of the Golden Mage Tower with return magic…”
“I know that much!”
“Doesn’t that even make sense in the first place!”
bang!
Willow slammed the table and shouted.
“To use the return magic, you have to go through the dungeon, but does it make sense to clear the dungeon in 20 minutes?”
“Even if you arrange the dungeon in advance through the Adventurers Guild!”
To use return magic or escape scrolls, clearing the dungeon is essential.
Finding a dungeon itself is not difficult if you get the cooperation of the Adventurer’s Guild, but once cleared, the dungeon will disappear over time.
So, since it is impossible to store clear dungeons separately, in order to move to space, you have to go around the dungeon and catch the boss monster every time…
“Is that possible!”
20 minutes? It’s nonsense.
Of course, depending on the party, there are cases where the boss monster can be defeated quickly.
However, ‘dungeon exploration’, which includes finding the boss room, investigating traps, simple meals, moving time, resting, etc., cannot be shortened, so as a result, clearing the dungeon will inevitably take a day, no matter how short it is.
“It’s not like there’s something wrong…”
“Why doesn’t it make sense?”
At that moment, the door burst open.
“Here came the party like this.”
“…”
Kang Seung-hyun, a man in a white coat, entered the meeting room with a genuine smile on his face.
“nice to meet you. My name is Kang Seung-hyun, a healer who doesn’t know how to heal.”
Seunghyun Kang greeted the people gathered at the table with a smile as always.
“…”
“Hmm hmm.”
Like all people who receive Kang Seung-hyun’s smiley greeting, the Lopyarmus family only looked at Kang Seung-hyun with hard faces.
‘What the hell is this bastard…?’
‘Why are you here? by what means? how?’
It is impossible with the common sense of Azul Continent.
Because the person who should never be here has appeared in front of me.
“Everyone looks bad. What happened?”
The faces of the powerful members of the Mage Tower were crumpled even more miserably at that calm tone of voice.
“I guess this is why we came so early and surprised you?”
“Oh, I didn’t mean to surprise you. I’m sorry!”
Then, a smirking Alec and a shy Kim Ho-jung entered the room.
Kim Ho-jeong was wearing the same outfit as usual, but Alec was wearing a silver horse’s robe.
“You might be surprised. I understand.”
“I shouldn’t be surprised already. This is just the beginning.”
The Lofiarmus family prepared this place with the intention of pressuring Kang Seung-hyeon, but it was them themselves who were oppressed.
‘First impressions are important.’
Kang Seung-hyun easily overpowered the submasters just by appearing.
“What the hell… how?”
“What?”
“You were able to get here in only 20 minutes, right?”
Luji, who was dazed for a moment, managed to open his mouth and ask a question.
I felt like what would happen to my head if I didn’t figure out the answer to this mystery.
“Are you asking because you don’t know such an easy thing?”
“What?”
“I thought you would see right away if you were the submaster of the Golden Mage Tower. A bit disappointing.”
As if Kang Seung-hyeon had been waiting for that question, he began to sarcastically and ridicule him.
“Well, if that was possible, wouldn’t it be surprising in the first place? Still, people at the level of submasters are surprised by such a thing. The people of the Golden Tower must have a softer heart than I thought.”
“Aren’t you exaggerating!”
“It’s done.”
Kang Seung-hyeon cut off Amelie’s words and said.
“Where is Doradel?”
“what?”
“The Golden Mage Tower Master. You can’t see him.”
It’s a polite way of speaking, but let’s break it down.
‘I’m not interested in ttakkari like you.’
‘Go away and call the captain.’
that’s the sound
“dare! One person in charge of the Magic Association!”
“One person in charge? I didn’t come here as a manager.”
“that’s right! Our teacher Kang is a healer. Healer. The person in charge is a side job!”
Kim Ho-jung, who was next to him, chimed in and stepped forward.
“Isn’t it natural for the representative to come to visit us from a long way for something very important?”
“much?”
“I’m sorry, but it’s not something I’m going to tell you.”
Kang Seung-hyeon cut off the submasters with a disapproving face.
The reality is that no matter how powerful people are in the Mage Tower, they are still less than Masters.
For the submasters who cannot rise to the master position because of Doradel’s existence, it must be the unbearable humiliation and inferiority complex deep in their hearts.
‘I’ve been able to hold on until now, but I won’t be able to stand this.’
Kang Seung-Hyun catches that psychology wonderfully and provokes them.
“The one I want to meet is the Mage Tower Master. Not like the submaster.”
