Episode 238. It’s familiar to me.
The Crystal Hall.
Hoyeol left the connector and left the crystal hall.
Even so, the reverberation of the shock did not go away easily.
Players whisper first.
“…You mean you’re sharing a great opportunity?”
“Without even trying it first!”
“Damn what was that bastard thinking…”
I realized once again.
Ho-yeol’s pride is so heavy that it’s difficult to say that he pursued it.
It is also that it has many meanings as much as it is heavy.
Some players looked around.
“To be able to return to the Arcana Continent.”
“Mother and father…”
“I just want to make sure they are all right.”
Ho-yeol clearly said so.
-“No one can ever weigh the weight of that purpose.”
Yes.
Who would dare to judge the heaviness and lightness of that story?
After entering the Magic Tower.
Even if you say you can’t go back to the life before that.
For them, the Arcana continent is their hometown, and there were blood relatives in their hometown.
Healing senior Bellier smiled a little.
“You mean you won’t overlook anything.”
Belly knows.
The fact that Chief Lee Ho-yeol doesn’t even look at a single application form. Because the rejected application always came back with a reasonable reason and supplementary points added.
Is it just the exit application?
The same was true of the pre-verification of regular conferences.
Including Klee’s research on “How to Grow Non-Medicinal Herbs”.
Even the research of inexperienced skilled mages.
Isn’t it Ho-yeol who worries like his research?
‘But it’s a heavier burden than that. You’re going to carry it alone this time too.’
I wanted to share it right away, but…
Belly wasn’t confident.
It is incomparable to the tower or prior verification.
Because the responsibility that followed was heavy.
‘Sir…’
That was also the reason why Marcelo could hardly raise his head.
Elder mage Yugwid spoke to such a Marcelo.
“Isn’t it great, Chief Marcelo? To be honest, if I were Chief Lee, I would have kept the fact that I had something like that for a while.”
“You’re being honest, Elder Yugwid.”
“Whoops. Isn’t that just scratching?”
But what about heat?
Scratching those boils isn’t enough, to the Magic Tower.
No, it was revealed to the world.
As if he had been waiting, he turned an arrow at himself.
“It’s the size of a bowl that I can’t fathom.”
“Neither do I.”
“Meow.”
“…?”
A cat with straight hair.
The tower owner stepped between the two and babbled.
The top lord had finally finished weighing in his head.
‘In all respects, you would be more suitable for the position of the tower owner than me.’
It was a decision that would be terrifying if the person concerned found out.
“By the way…”
Marcelo looked at the exit of the Crystal Hall where Ho-yeol had escaped.
‘He obviously said he couldn’t afford it.’
Where did Lord go in such a hurry?
If you went out through that door, it must mean that you are still in the Mage Tower.
Marcelo got up from his seat.
‘…I’m sure it won’t work.’
It was Ho-yeol and Marcelo who were promoting joint research on Kii in order to return to the Arcana continent.
However, if Ho-yeol’s words were true, there was no need to conduct further research.
‘I don’t know if I deserve to know.’
The unavoidable nature of wizards.
It seemed that only having a conversation with Ho-yeol would calm down his despondent feelings.
With Marcelo at the head, the wizards murmured and escaped the Crystal Hall.
In the meantime, there were two people who kept their place until the end.
It was Banshee and Bangrit.
“As expected, Chief Lee Ho-yeol did not abandon me!”
It wasn’t that the exit tower was insignificant, but if you compare the exit tower with returning to the Arcana continent? Of course, returning to the Arcana continent is a much more valuable opportunity!
“The companion of the past was the arrangement for today!”
Bangrit’s eyes scan the smug Banshee.
‘…Where does that confidence come from?’
It was a daily routine to pay attention to Bangrit, who had risen from a commoner to a senior position in the Mage Tower. Thanks to that, I figured it out right away. The meaning contained in the words that I will carry it on my back.
‘I don’t think the process will be any different from the exit screening…’
Banshi senior who can’t even jump out.
There’s no way you can enter the Arcana continent…?
Although the cruel truth rose to the tip of my chin.
Bangrit laughed shyly.
“Mmm ha ha. wait aww Brother is going.”
…Yes, even if I don’t tell you, you’ll soon realize.
May you be happy for the time being.
Senior Bensh.
*
End of round table.
After escaping from the Crystal Hall, I headed towards the Garnet Hall.
There was only one reason to stop by Garnet Hall.
‘I have to go to the Arcana Continent.’
So don’t borrow it.
Because I can hear another voice from Grandfel.
I sneak a peek at the level.
[Level: 680]
It wasn’t too bad of a reward for being stabbed in the back by Raymon Shen. It should have been easy to level up after entering the 600 level range.
Fluttering—
now a jacket that flutters whenever you walk.
There were only 20 levels left to properly wear them.
That alone is one of the great reasons to level up.
‘Because a high level helps to broaden the range of choices.’
Memories of visiting Garnet Hall by parachute in the past come to mind.
At that time, at most, I was around level 100.
Because of that, the magic tools of the Mage Tower felt like rice cakes in the picture.
Now you can choose freely.
“Oh, Chief Lee Ho-yeol…?”
The skilled wizard guarding the Garnet Hall is startled.
After suddenly calling a roundtable meeting.
What’s going on with Garnet Hall?
I said lightly.
“The round table is over.”
“Ah, that’s right! But what happened to Garnet Hall…?”
“I want to borrow magic tools with the authority of the chief.”
“Oh you did! Maybe there is a magic tool you are looking for!”
In fact, basically, the wizards of the Mage Tower do not rely on magic tools.
It was because it was the nature of mages who were born with the talent to enter the Mage Tower.
Beings who constantly seek to improve themselves by pursuing research or truth or whatever.
That’s why magic tools that simply amplify expression power were not used unless it was for a ‘special purpose’.
therefore.
“I need a magic tool related to the power of expression.”
“…!”
You might be surprised by my words.
Because that was like saying I have a special purpose.
Of course, there was no way a skilled mage would question my purpose.
“If so, this way…”
I followed the guidance and entered the Garnet Hall.
‘Ohh.’
Some of the magic tools I had seen during my parachute caught my eye.
How unfair it must have been for the low level.
I remember the name clearly.
It’s a magic tool [frozen knowledge] like that necklace, right?
[Frozen knowledge]
[Rating: Unique]
[Limit: Lv.550]
[Effect: Recovers 50% of the magical power consumed when using freezing magic.]
[Description: A keepsake of the great freezing wizard. The magical knowledge he achieved during his lifetime is frozen and preserved in the necklace.]
Looking back, it is a magical tool with an effect that any freezing wizard can but covet.
Recovering 50% of the mana consumed.
To be honest, imagine that this kind of effect depends on magic tools related to pure magic.
‘Would it be Epic grade?’
I didn’t know it back then, but now I know.
The reason why an item with such an effect is unique and does not have a high level limit. It was because freezing magic was one of the non-mainstream magic.
‘Actually, there’s no such thing as a strong point.’
Its destructive power in special situations was outstanding, but its biggest weakness was its obvious weakness. More than anything, the problem was that it had a fatal affinity with fire magic, one of the mainstream magic.
‘To rise to the position of an elder mage with such freezing magic.’
Thinking back, he was a great man, Senios.
And wasn’t it me who was recognized by Senios?
I’m not the me of the parachute days when only the appearance was good.
After watching it to my heart’s content, I only rented one [Six Star Brooch].
Ho-yeol Lee is no more.
I held the [Frozen Knowledge] in my hands full of confidence.
“!”
…Is it because he picked it up so confidently?
The pupils of the skilled mage flinch.
But it’s too early to be surprised.
I said shamelessly.
“Next, I will choose the magic tool to borrow.”
It was not enough to enter the Arcana Continent.
It was me who had to face the dying elder dragon Yunaxus.
Maybe we’ll have to face the enemy who drove the elder dragons of the world to their deaths. But can you finish all preparations with just one magic tool?
‘…It must be very loud.’
In fact, even now.
The fluttering jacket on the necklace and brooch was too flashy.
But, fortunately out of all the misfortunes, there are no eyes on the Arcana continent. So let’s put up with the embarrassingly flashy outfit, Hoyeol-ah.
“Not bad.”
“I will rent it.”
“It is the same.”
For a while, only my voice echoed in Garnet Hall…
.
.
.
The actual head of the Garnet Hall is Kiko Armin, Senior Enchantment.
Everything that happened in Garnet Hall is told to her.
What happened today is no exception.
“…What do you mean Laran?”
Laran, an experienced wizard guarding the Garnet Hall.
She repeated the words carefully.
Possible again and again.
“Chief Hoyeol Lee borrowed a total of 12 magic tools…?”
twelve points.
It’s definitely a lot, but I wasn’t surprised by the number.
Above all, the chief wizard had the right to freely borrow magic tools.
However, the type of magic tool borrowed was a problem.
Kiko checked the parchment while pulling her hair.
“Frozen Knowledge Seahorse’s Heart Dice of Destiny…?!”
All twelve magic tools.
It was a ‘decisive’ magic tool that amplified the power of expression.
Kiko then read the next line.
Only then did she notice.
The reason Laran was making such a distraught expression.
“…Senior Mage Kiko!”
“It’s not good to make a hasty guess, Larran.”
“That’s true…!”
Unlike other magic tools, the magic tools for decisive battles had to specify the rental period. It was because no one could know what the result would be the moment the wizard of the Mage Tower handled the magic tool for decisive battle without a promise.
Hoyeol was no exception to the rules of the Mage Tower.
Larran continued crying.
“The rental period written by Chief Lee Ho-yeol…!!”
I’m looking at you even if you don’t speak
Kiko focused again and looked at the parchment.
It was written in a bold handwriting on it.
──────
Rental Period: Until the moment of death.
──────
.
.
.
…No, this is not wrong again.
Do you really have to write it down like that?
Just until you return from the Arcana continent.
Would it be nice if you kindly wrote it?
Until the moment of death!
The reason for scrawling it so much during the rental period was simple.
Because the title [Last Adventurer] worked for me.
Above all, check the strong effect once again.
[The Last Adventurer: You will not die on the Arcana continent. Upon death, you return to reality immediately and cannot access the Arcana Continent for a certain period of time. – Cooldown: 24 hours]
In a nutshell, it’s a Grand Fel expression.
On the Hellish Arcana Continent.
until the moment of death.
It is a promise to never bend or bend.
Of course, the experienced mage who confirmed it couldn’t help but be astonished.
I’m trying to get my money’s worth until I die with the magic tower magic tool.
It’s clear that he thought he was a shameless guy…!
‘I’d rather be really greedy and get cursed at, I don’t know.’
because of integrity.
I couldn’t even have a proper desire. To be treated like a shameless guy who borrowed two out of ten magic tools from the Mage Tower until his death.
‘It’s nothing to be ashamed of. really.’
…But to clear up the misunderstanding.
There are so many stories to tell.
Tea time was the only thing that soothed my unfair heart.
“Mmm.”
So don’t be displeased that it’s not green tea, Grandfel.
Traditionally, what is written in the mouth is good for the body.
More than anything, what I need right now.
It was because it was non-herbal doping, not caffeine from green tea.
[Health regeneration rate increases slightly for 6 hours.]
[Magical power regeneration rate increases slightly for 1 hour.] [
Stamina regeneration rate increases slightly for 12 hours.]…
is it.
If not, is it because it is organic non-herb?
The effect is not bad.
‘Effects such as small increases accumulate and accumulate to make a big difference.’
So, let’s get ready to move on.
Click—
I put down the teacup and stood up.
What did you feel when you opened Kii’s portal to Arcana?
It was that a space that could withstand the enormous magical energy generated during the manifestation process was needed. The space suitable for that purpose was the top floor of the Mage Tower.
I open the door wide to head to the top floor…
What a surprise!
What are you all doing at my office door?
What about those serious faces?
…Wait a minute, didn’t you hear my complaint about green tea?!
