Chapter 245 Circle 1 Archmage, Angelina (1)
Arcadia’s first integrated event, the greatest martial arts tournament in the world.
This event, which commemorates the unification of Arcadia, which is divided into eight continents, and dreams of harmony among people around the world, was proceeding with great success with more positive responses than the executives and staff of Arcadia Co., Ltd. expected.
“Users are very satisfied with this event. The real-time interpretation and translation system allows for free communication. There do not appear to be any conflicts or hostilities of particular concern.”
Conflicts that inevitably arise when interacting with people from other cultures. However, the Fantastic Universe, which is full of things to play and enjoy, played a huge role in reducing the distance between each other by releasing people’s tension and reducing their vigilance to the fullest.
“In addition, inquiries from companies about Mizuni’s Fantastic Universe are exploding. Global Studio, our competitor, has even sent us a request to create their own super-large theme park in virtual reality. It seems that more companies have seen the true value of virtual reality through this event.”
[Wow, why don’t you and us create a theme park that’s even bigger than the Fantastic Universe? If you use the IPs of our global studios, you will be able to create golden eggs that generate more profits. I’ll meet the conditions you want as much as possible, so please…..]
Fantastic Universe that looks like it’s going to rake in money just by looking at it.
Now, it was released in the form of a temporary free opening due to an event, but considering the profits that Mizuni’s first and only virtual reality theme park will make, which will be officially released later, theme parks around the world couldn’t help but be nervous.
“Using Miznisa’s project for this event was a really ingenious plan. It was not just used as a stage for events, but it became an example of greatly improving people and companies’ awareness of virtual reality.”
CEO Lee Mi-yeon, who was receiving an interim report on this event. She couldn’t help but acknowledge the ability of the crisis management and response team to transform her plan, which she had deliberately created to prank, after hearing the honest feelings of the employees asking her to do nothing.
“You did well, Manager Kang Tae-hoon. As expected, the manager’s team never disappoints me.”
President Lee Mi-yeon praised his hard work with a smile. In response to her praise, Manager Kang Tae-hun made a strange expression, then lowered his head and said,
“thank you.”
In order to get rid of that damned bamboo spear, everyone made it after all night long and worried. When you are contemplating whether you should like this or not because you are being praised by the person who made you go through such hardships with a puzzled face. Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, asked him.
“Please let us know if you have any difficulties or problems with the progress and operation of this event. This time, I will pay special attention to it.”
President Lee Mi-yeon usually smiles and refuses to ask for anything. It was a very unusual situation for her to step out and offer help, so Director Kang Tae-hun asked with a blank expression for a moment.
“Is that true….?”
“Sure. Is there anything you would like to suggest?”
At those words, General Manager Kang Tae-Hoon rummaged through the documents he was holding as if he was a fish out of water.
“Ho, then may I ask for information about one user?”
“User? Who are you talking about?”
CEO Lee Mi-yeon tilts her head with a curious face. What Director Kang Tae-hun brought out to her was a report written by assistant manager Yang-cheol Cho, who belongs to his team.
“This time…. This is a user who has won the right to advance to the finals in a match that was conducted for summon class users. However, it was found that there was an excessive balance problem, so I would like to confirm the situation, but access to related information is being restricted.”
“Hmm… If the information you couldn’t read, you must be a user who acquired a hidden class?”
“I’m assuming that’s the case too… but first, let’s look at the combat information written there.”
A report on the user based on information confirmed through various videos released on Arfandia. President Lee Mi-yeon, who was looking at it, asked back with an absurd face.
“You summoned hundreds of lesser spirits? All four attributes?”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm… is that a situation that is possible for a normal Elementalist?”
“Could that be?”
The contents of the report seem a bit strange even to CEO Lee Mi-yeon. Looking at the contents of the thick battle situation, she asked General Manager Kang Tae-Hoon.
“So… what is this user name?”
“This player’s name is… Choco Paijoa.”
At those words, Lee Mi-yeon, who was looking at the report, immediately turned to Kang Tae-hoon. Then she looked at him again with a stiff face and asked.
“Your username is… what?”
President Lee Mi-yeon with a serious expression on her face. Director Kang Tae-hoon, with a slightly strange look at her reaction, told her the name clearly again.
“It’s Choco Piezoa. As a user who has reported to the boss several times, he is quite a famous person in Arpendia. He attracted public attention through several videos uploaded on the channel called Destroyer’s Daily Life, and is known to be close friends with the dragon slayer ‘Dex’ in real life.”
The main culprit of the mine slave scam.
A whistleblower at the top of GM.
The first discoverer of elves.
Dex’s best friend.
The saint of slime.
Choco Pie Joa, known as the source and owner of various incidents and topical rice cakes. He, who had been confined for a long time, appeared again in a very splendid way.
Choco Paijoa, the soul sage of unlucky human garbage.
“First of all, we’re assuming that he acquired a hidden class related to spirits from the elves while clearing some kind of quest related to the elves. I don’t have a job that I can do, so I guess I’ll have to check it out.”
The first thing to do is to check if it is a bug or if there is a crazy job that has been sent to Andromeda far away for balance. However, Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, flatly rejected his request.
“Sorry, but I don’t think that will work.”
“yes….? yes….?!”
Director Kang Tae-hoon was at a loss for words at his refusal. Seeing President Lee Mi-yeon, who until just a moment ago had been full of goodwill and said she would listen to anything, quickly changed her posture to her usual self, general manager Kang Tae-hun asked in excitement without realizing it.
“I have already checked that user. First of all, I can’t tell Director Kang Tae-Hoon all the related information, but I’ll tell you that it’s roughly similar to what you expected. There are no bugs or anything like that, so don’t worry. You may feel that there is a problem with the balance, but don’t worry, it’s not necessarily like that.”
Wandering song of the turbulent world.
Jae-young has the power to twist any law as long as it is guaranteed to be probable. Considering what he had done so far, the current situation was on the very moderate side. Of course, even she couldn’t understand why she was doing this.
‘Is this why I asked who gets the prize?’
Jae-Young, who had called himself before and made a strange request.
I didn’t know it at the time, but now President Lee Mi-yeon was able to know what he was planning, albeit vaguely. Except for one thing.
‘Why on earth…?’
Even after Director Kang Tae-hoon left, CEO Lee Mi-yeon had been thinking about what Jae-young was doing now. But no matter how much she thought about it, her head couldn’t understand it.
Why is it that Choco Piejoa, which is still standing still, is turned into a world-class trash?
* * *
[I’ll join you later. Have a good date, the two of you.]
With those words, Jae-young disappeared somewhere. After that, Jaekyun met Chaeyeon for the first time in virtual reality and enjoyed a good time alone.
“wow! Aren’t there a lot of really fun things here?”
“That’s right. The food is also really good.”
“yes? The griffon was so cute too! The hair is fluffy… Kyaa!”
As if she was satisfied with her time in the Fantastic Universe, Chaeyeon smiled brightly as she crossed her arms with Jaekyun. Seeing her like that, Jae-kyun’s heart started beating like crazy.
“hmm? Jaekyun, where are you sick? What’s wrong with your face?”
“Ugh huh? What am I…?”
“It’s so red…?”
Jae-gyun urgently touches his face at those words. And soon, feeling the heat, he changed the subject in embarrassment.
“Uh, that… Ah! Chae Yeon-ah! There’s a wizard class qualifier!”
“huh? where….? That’s right…..”
Preliminaries of various classes being held simultaneously in hundreds of thousands of stadiums. Jaekyun, who found one of them, naturally turned Chaeyeon’s attention to another place as if a serpent had fallen over a wall.
“You’re playing as a wizard too! Would you like to go see it?”
“Hmm… well, that’s okay.”
“Then shall we go? I’ve never seen a one-on-one battle between wizards, so I’m curious.”
Chaeyeon was curious about what Jaekyun said. After thinking about it for a moment, she nodded happily and accepted his offer.
“Then then.”
“Hehe…then let’s go.”
Jae-kyun, along with Chae-yeon, placed his palm on the sign at the entrance of the stadium. And then a message popped up in front of his eyes.
[The World’s Best Martial Arts Tournament Wizard Class Preliminary. Would you like to watch the match at No.292 Stadium?]
[If accepted, you will be moved to a randomly assigned seat.]
[There are party members. Would you like to move together?]
“Move?”
“huh.”
Jaekyun didn’t hesitate to accept Chaeyeon’s words and pressed the accept button. At the same time, the two were automatically transported into a huge coliseum-style arena.
[Wow Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
! Fantastic! Ice Witch! Kairel’s overwhelming victory!]
The stadium was filled with thunderous cheers as if the match had just ended. Jaekyun could be seen in the cheering and enthusiasm of the hot crowd.
Whoops.
A woman in a pure white dress, smiling beautifully in a storm of flying ice blades.
“Wow… Kyrell was playing here?”
She stands proudly in the middle of the stadium, receiving cheers from the crowd. Jaekyun asked Chaeyeon, who muttered with a surprised expression as if she knew who it was.
“huh? Anyone know?”
“Hmm… He’s a very famous user in Europe. He’s probably one of the best rankers for a mage over there? It specializes in powerful ice magic and is very popular among wizards.”
“okay….?”
Jae-gyun looked at her as she was playing the match once again with curious eyes, as if she was famous among wizards. Chaeyeon muttered with her eyes twinkling as if it was strange that she was facing a more unexpected person than she had imagined.
“Wow… I came in without thinking, but meeting a celebrity like this? came in really well It’s also Jaegyun. good job!”
“Hehe….. What am I…..”
Jaekyun’s mouth caught on in his ears at Chaeyeon’s sincere praise. He wasn’t particularly interested in the wizard’s battle, but he thought the flashy looking effect would be fun, so Jaekyun and Chaeyeon started looking at the arena with eyes full of anticipation.
“uh! Start right away!”
“I see… Who is this opponent?”
Whoops.
Kairel’s next victim appeared amidst everyone’s curiosity. However, people could not hide their embarrassment when they saw a female user who showed up.
“What is it? What about that shabby outfit?”
“Aren’t those completely low-level equipment?”
“More than that… What are the weapons in both hands?”
She was equipped with national school uniform items that would only be worn at level 30.
People were puzzled by the sight of him holding a staff in one hand and a long stick in the other. A challenger who seems far from the typical wizard.
The goblin introduced her for the first time to the crowd who tilted their heads.
[Cairel, the ice witch who challenges 75 consecutive wins! The next opponent to challenge her is… Angelina!]
“Angelina…?”
“who is this? Are you hearing this for the first time?”
“That’s… I’ve never heard of it.”
After a long period of seclusion that day, Angelina made a splendid appearance.
As a rising new divinity that completely shatters the wizard’s prejudices.
