◈ Tower – ?F (2)
Aww! In the room, the metallicity resounded randomly with vibrations. The source of the sound was visible from the wall. It is a sight with dozens of ice spears stuck in it.
The surface was covered with even thin ice from the chill that flowed out of the magic. After the repairs were done, the smooth wall was dented and scratched.
I caught my breath and looked to the side.
“How is it?”
“It’s pretty good.”
Fortunately, he nodded to see if he was okay with Ahat’s standards.
I had mana rods drawn on my hands. This is because the magic of [Ice Spear] and the wind attribute were simultaneously expressed.
It’s not the first time that two magics have been expressed at once, but it was intended to be used separately, not for synergy like this time.
Instead of blowing the wind sharply, it accelerated the speed of the ice spear as if it was pushing it away. In order to inflict fatal wounds only with the blow of the sharp ice spear itself.
Just seeing the ice pierced that metal wall, it certainly worked. It can also be used to surprise an enemy who has been vigilant at rapid acceleration.
“But won’t you tell me your name?”
“What’s your name?”
“A magical name.”
Even if Ahat’s magic was imprinted, the type was not registered in the attribute column, so I couldn’t research what it was. If it had been registered, the effect would have been written down, so I would have quickly realized how to apply it.
If I knew at least the name, I could infer the effect of the magic, but Ahat only conceived and told the ‘form’ of the wind.
To be sharp as a knife or to rotate round like a whirlwind.
“There is no such thing as a name.”
“The magic of the ice attribute that you just wrote has a form that is directly visible to the eye.”
Ahat said, pointing to the wall. The water that melted little by little at the tip of the ice spear was evaporating into mana.
“But was the shape of the wind visible?”
“okay. Choosing a name only limits the form. This is what sets it apart from other attributes.”
Ahat rolled up her sleeves and showed me her forearms. Whoa! The mana road was drawn at high speed. A blue line formed the shape of the circuit, and a tailwind flowed from his hand.
“Of course, there is a technique optimized for expressing that form. As you have been training up until now, you must have realized it slowly. Did you catch it?”
“Even if you can’t fully understand it in your head, you can feel it to some extent .”
“Good. However, the optimized method was based on me, so if you like this one better, you should change the circuit.”
“Ah, I see…”
Other than this engraving, other types of magic could be better.
In a good sense, it was a statement that could be made because I did not have any pride as the head of the household. Maybe it was because I wasn’t obsessed with magic itself.
“Then, will you be able to defeat Ga-ju with this?”
“Ha ha ha, maybe.”
I thought it was a joke, and when I answered with a smile, Ahat’s eyebrows rose for some reason. Something calmed the mood and she flinched and flinched.
Ahat looked at me with a surprised face.
“I thought you were taught to do that.”
no way. Why would I have to fight the governor?
It’s just increased power to use when climbing the tower. The more tools you can use when you face the top owner, the better.
“Of course, there could be a conflict with the governor, but we want to meet to avoid that. It’s hard to focus on erosion, so I don’t want to focus on anything else.”
“Ugh. You really don’t think it’s going to end after just talking, do you?”
Maybe I was thinking too lightly, so Ahat gave me a pin cup.
“Miss Aiden’s mother, who is friendly with you, will go away anyway.”
“Yes. You mean Carol Aiden?”
“okay. was it spherical? He might be on your side, but even with that in mind, it’s best to prepare ahead of time for a clash with the heads of state.”
Ahat, in rare cases, continued to speak with a sultry look.
“Even in this kind of situation, the tower is moving to make a profit. Even if the Gaju doesn’t think so, the wizards under it must have other ideas. Hector’s apprentice must still be hiding.”
“First of all, if there are not enough people in the advance squad, I think I will go with a small group…”
“Are you going with the saint candidate?”
“yes. And maybe…”
There’s no way he’s missing out on something like this.
“Even Park Noah.”
“haha. Don’t you think it’s dangerous? Her memory fades over time, but for that friend, it’s not much.”
It was postponed for other reasons, but how would you endure it if you faced the top powers directly? In addition, the villagers outside the village were also involved and died.
Noah Park, because of herself.
“What will Jihan-kun do if Miss Noah becomes hostile to them?”
“I don’t think it’s going to go wrong because of my personal feelings, but since it’s resurrected by erosion, I honestly don’t expect it. However, if it causes problems…”
I sighed. The reason I have been trying to take care of Noah Park by my side so far is because of ‘my own ending’. Because in order to see the ending of the original, the existence of Park Noah was absolutely necessary.
“I’m going to draw a line and leave it alone.”
However, the reason that has been the case so far has now been resolved. Having already satisfied the other conditions, I have the opportunity to return to Earth at any time.
Now my only goal is to stop the erosion and prevent the destruction of this world.
“You are surprisingly cool. But it’s the right decision. Anyway, I recommend not taking them.”
“I think I’m going to tell Drakan-san. .
If Drakhan had more feelings for the tower than Noah Park, it was a lot, not a lot. Wouldn’t it rather be trying to meet the heads of state with Noah Park?
Anyway, I’m not going to accompany Ellen on this occasion. Since we are from the Aiden family, other conflicts may arise if we act together. This is the best thing to avoid in the current situation.
“Hmm. Take revenge.”
Ahat clicked his tongue, perhaps because they were sympathetic.
“It’s bittersweet.”
The news that the 50th floor had collapsed was spread the fastest in the 44th floor – Daeshinjeon. It must have been that it happened not long after the Holy Knights withdrew.
“As a result of our investigation, the majority of opinions are that they want to return to the front line.”
“is that so···.”
Hearing those words, the saint, Albain Gran’s face darkened. Basically, because they are people who have devoted themselves to religion, nature is good.
As a result, erosion must feel responsible for the erosion of the 50th floor. What happens when you’ve endured all this time and finally retreated? The timing is inappropriate.
“Are the wires obviously not stable?”
“Yes. As you said, after stabilization, even the last personnel withdrew.”
Arthur Gran answered. The last person who came down was the last person to personally check the situation on the front line.
“I have completed the techniques I have drawn so far to prevent erosion from coming down to the wall and have reached the level of hunting monsters one by one. In addition, there were many wizards who dealt with white magic. I even heard that it would be okay for at least a few months, but it’s like this…”
Arthur, the commander of the Holy Knights, also had a dark expression on his face as if he was feeling a sense of responsibility. Albain naturally thought of a bad family.
‘…are you trying to shift the responsibility?’
Judging by what T.O.P has done, I don’t think this is a coincidence. It could have been a self-made play to gain the upper hand in the relationship. If the Holy Knights wished to return to the front line on their own like now, the saint could not stop them. Because the cause is right.
“for a moment. It will be difficult to enter if you like!”
Then a commotion was heard from outside. It was the voice of the paladin guarding the entrance.
“Well? What happened.”
The door of the temple, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened, and an unfamiliar party entered through the door. There were two wizards dressed in black and a man with a body that looked like a minor.
The gender was unknown. Her eyes were covered with a bandage, so that most of her face was hidden. All he could see was his mouth. Arthur stood before her saint and grabbed the hilt of her sword. Albain asked them.
“Are you…?”
“I’m from ‘Tower’. Lady.”
The magicians remained silent, and the bandage-wearing man stood in the middle as the representative. He had a neutral voice, so he still couldn’t tell the gender.
“It doesn’t matter. Don’t you know that you can’t come here as you please?”
Shreung! Arthur hardened her expression in displeasure and drew her sword. Then the wizards standing on either side raised their hands. It looked like it was intended to manifest magic.
“Sir Arthur. it’s okay.”
“… Saint.”
“Let’s get to the point quickly. What is the purpose of coming from the tower?”
“After all, you have the personality that I have seen. Thank you for pardoning the rudeness. It would be polite to introduce myself first.”
The bandaged man placed his hand on his chest and bowed his head politely.
“I don’t have a name, but I have the personality of ‘knowledge’ to tell you something special. First of all, it is also called the ‘child of prophecy’.”
child of prophecy. The face of her saint changed when she saw the person who claimed it.
“… I’ve never heard of it. That rumor was true. So what did you come here for?”
“It seems that all the Paladins have returned. I’m sorry, but I’m here to tell you that I’m going to have to pack again.”
Only the exposed corners of the mouth that were not covered by the bandages went up.
“Within a week, the Great Hall will be destroyed by erosion.”
“······you.”
A furious Arthur approached. Even if the wizards reached out to him, he didn’t care.
“Did you come here with the intention of intimidating? To us who have cooperated on the front lines so far?”
“ha ha ha. Hopefully.”
The child of prophecy, who did not give in despite Arthur’s threats, grinned.
“I came here in person to talk about him. With St. and the others.”
“Others?”
“Wait just five seconds.”
There was an uncomfortable silence for a moment. And after 5 seconds.
Follow me! Like a lie, the phone in the corner rang. Arthur, who momentarily turned his head, looked at the child of prophecy again. He shrugged his shoulders with his face turned to him, though he had obviously covered his eyes with a bandage.
“You get it. Someone you know.”
Arthur turned and looked at Albain.
Albain nodded, indicating that he should answer the phone.
Follow me! Arthur walked over to the ringing phone and picked up the receiver.
[- Saint? This is Seo-Han. As I said before, I think I’ll see you tomorrow.]
A familiar voice was heard over the receiver.
