Ryu Seo-yeon (2)
Today is now Wednesday. Half of the sports festival has passed. As the days passed, the excitement of the sports festival grew stronger.
Today’s main event was the final of the team match and the round of 32 of ‘Dalian’ and ‘Magic Festival’, which are called the flowers of individual competition.
In the morning, the first and second year solo exhibitions and the final round of 32 will be held. According to the schedule, it seems like a tight schedule to reach the round of 16, but each game is short and there are several games going on at the same time.
[-Today’s protagonist! Dalian and Magic Festival players will enter! Please welcome everyone with big cheers and applause!!!]
The cheers of the entertainer idol who was in charge of the commentary were cheered by the BGM, and the players who advanced to the round of 32 began to appear at the stadium.
clap clap! The sound of applause can be heard from all directions. I covered my ears and sat in the audience watching the competition. Without being caught among those aspiring heroes.
‘Keup ….’
…I am not here because I lost to the round of 64. Since I withdrew from both Daejeon and Magic Festival round of 64, I was in a position to watch the match from the audience.
I’m sure Ryu Seo-yeon will be mentioned in Tower Quest. Park Noah will do well on her own at this point, but not Ryu Seo-yeon.
There was a risk that something would happen to Ryu Seo-yeon while participating in the match.
After weighing the greed of catching both rabbits and the resulting risk, we concluded that the risk was too great.
That’s why I just withdrew. I felt sorry for the friend who last met me in the preliminary round.
Even if he didn’t know about the magic festival, at least Dalian was confident that he would advance to the semifinals. I was even able to go to the general match…
‘…my reward.’
In a nutshell, the reward for winning the general battle was a weapon of the relic-class excavated from the tower, which made my blood dry even more. It wasn’t mine after all, but it should have been mine. You can only get manastones from the Farming Festival…
“I’m here.”
At that time, Oh Yun-ha sat down in the seat I had taken. She was not in gym clothes, but plain clothes with black leggings and a large hoodie.
By the way, Oh Yun-ha, this guy also withdrew from Dalian. I heard that they even escaped from a team fight.
Whatever happened in the meantime, he first asked me to help escort Ryu Seo-yeon. After listening to the story, it seems that Oh Yun-ha’s intuition also sensed a danger.
‘I have to say I’m happy.’
I thought I would have to do it alone, but this is how things turned out.
“How about. Is there anyone strange?”
“No. I looked around as I passed, but there was none.”
The fact that ‘Survival’ popped up would mean that Ryu Seo-yeon could die. So, surprisingly, this stadium is the most dangerous place.
All directions are open and there is no protective equipment. Even if you normally prepare for an emergency with artifacts or something like that, when you go up to that stadium, you just use a thin layer of defensive magic.
I looked at one side of the audience. Under strict boundaries, people from top or prestigious families are being escorted. It seems difficult to do anything while ignoring that escort, but they only protect their master.
If anyone commits a terrorist attack here, they will just stand by as long as it doesn’t harm them. The reason is simple. This is because the scope of the case can be further expanded by intervening in the struggle of other powers after their own intervention.
“There it is.”
Oh Yoon-ha pointed to the corner with her hand that was eating popcorn when she bought it. There, along with her main characters, was Ryu Seo-yeon, a little farther away. The more I think about it, the sadder I get. Originally I was supposed to be there too.
I reached out for the popcorn Oh Yun-ha bought and asked.
“Now that I’m here to ask you, why are you asking me to help you with the escort?”
“You have a lot of strange abilities. You have nothing to do.”
“··········.”
with a bang. When my hand was about to reach you, youn-ha Oh turned and pulled the popcorn to her side.
“What is it, shamefully?”
“Where did you get those dirty hands?
Oh Yoon-ha pouted her lips as if to purr. I think I’m here because I didn’t keep my promise to explain questionable things in Eclipse.
“I told you. I have no memory of the aftermath of the injury.”
“Ah, yep.”
Not wanting to hear, Oh Yoon-ha turned her head and turned away from me. groan This is clearly my fault, I have nothing to say. Because I’m making excuses and being mean.
[-The first match of Dalian Round of 32 will begin!]
The first match of the round of 32 has just begun. Hong Jae-yu was the first to come to the arena. Surprisingly, he defeated Yunseong Oh in the round of 64. Hong Jae-yu, who had a confident expression on his face, untied the bandage on his arm and looked around.
···Oh. I’m going crazy I wish I would have been humiliated for being ripped off horribly.
Perhaps it was a slightly different impression from mine, Oh Yun-ha murmured in a voluptuous voice.
“You poor bastard.”
“…by the way, is Oh Yun-seong okay?”
“Uh. He kept splitting threads about what was good for the subject.”
The confrontation between Jae-Yoo Hong and Yun-Sung Oh was too high to be called a first-year round of 64. The spectators cheered for them as they rushed to kill each other as soon as the match started without even a search battle.
The system that came to my mind marked Jae-Yoo Hong’s talent as ‘Magic Sword Castle’. It was the power of its name.
As time passed and exhausted each other, when Oh Yoon-seong’s spear and Hong Jae-yu’s indigo blue magic sword collided, the magic sword caused a strong explosion like starlight.
Even if Yoon-seong Oh reacted late to the explosion, the defense magic could not stand and was broken. Hong Jae-yu also suffered a hand injury, but in the end it was his victory. There is a reason why Oh Yun-ha is mortal.
Anyway, it was only after seeing it that I was convinced that Hong Jae-yu had unexpected powers in the script. This could fill the void where the heroes died from the very beginning.
“By the way, Jihan.”
“Why do you have to keep it a secret from Seoyeon?”
“…because I’m not on good terms with her these days. You keep avoiding me.”
Most of all, confinement is scary. In the name of donation, it was almost sold to the temple.
Oh Yoon-ha looked at me with suspicious eyes at my words.
“What did you do weird?”
“…are you crazy? Do I look like that?”
There is no one more respectful than me. Then, Oh Yun-ha thought deeply about something for a moment, and then she turned her gaze toward the stadium and said:
“Ummm. It is.”
“For what reason do you understand me so well?”
“It’s not me. You didn’t do anything to me either.”
“You really don’t remember? At that time, my uncle gave me only one room, so I must have slept with you, boo…!”
I scooped some popcorn and shoved it into Oh Yun-ha’s mouth. I’m afraid that no one will hear me. Doesn’t this guy not feel the eyes of those around him who are glancing at me? Seeing his playful eyes, I think it was on purpose…
tt I got up from my seat because of the seasoning on my palm.
“…I’ll go to the bathroom.”
“Eh, don’t you watch the game?”
“Look at what Hong Jae-yu is doing.”
“Um, it is.”
He’s the guy who asked if he withdrew because he was afraid he might face off with Ji.
Honestly, my wish is that Hong Jae-yu loses, but this time my opponent is an A-class extra. It doesn’t even belong to the tower. If nothing happens, it will be Hong Jae-yu’s victory.
I climbed the stairs and went out into the hall of the audience. I thought while washing my hands in the bathroom nearby.
‘It’s called Tio Corporation.’
It is the name of the company that Ryu Seo-yeon mentioned by Oh Youn-ha. Even in the original, the name is often written on the shop ticket equipment, so I know it. Although it is not certain whether that company is targeting Ryu Seo-yeon, it is certain that it is a force hostile to the Black Hawk.
So it must have appeared on this tower quest. In such a way that the minerals from the tower were circulated and somehow tied up with the guys belonging to the tower. What do minors who don’t even have blood on their heads do, Won.
As I dried my hands and went out into the hallway, I heard a loud shout as if something worth seeing in the game had happened. What’s going on? She hurriedly tried to move her steps.
I stopped walking.
For some reason, a strange flow of mana was being seen underground.
‘It’s more underground than here…’
Where the players’ waiting room is located.
In other words, it was the place where Ryu Seo-yeon was.
In the waiting room, aspiring heroes gathered together with people they knew and talked to each other and relaxed.
Ryu Seo-yeon leaned against the wall in the waiting room and closed her eyes. When she is in a group of people, she finds it quite noticeable to be alone .
To others, it might look like Ryu Seo-yeon is concentrating before the match, but that’s not the case. He is just pretending to be embarrassed by his cell phone pedometer. He was listening to the conversations of others.
“Mr. Ryu Seo-yeon.”
At that time, Seo-yeon Ryu slowly opened her eyes at the voice that called her. In front of her, a pretty girl in her silver hair was leaning on her knees and looking at herself.
The waiting room was shared with the players of the Magic Festival. Each player is divided against his opponent, making a total of two.
“Mr Aiden? why?”
“I have a question for you. Do you know why Jihan abstained? Of course, you didn’t even tell me, but I wanted to know something.”
“I do not know···. I haven’t seen you recently.”
“Hmm. is that so.”
Aiden got up indifferently. And before he went back to his seat, he said with a light smile.
“Are you playing soon? Fight.”
“Oh, yes. thanks.”
Ryu Seo-yeon nodded her head with a confused expression.
‘Is that the original image?’
I was very rude, but I’d say something like that. It seems that there was some kind of change of heart.
The door to the waiting room opened and the instructor poked his head out. He looked through the squad list written on the paper and opened his mouth.
“Ryu Seo-yeon aspiring hero?”
“Be prepared for the next game soon.”
With that said, Seo-yeon Ryu put two swords on her waist and went out the door. In the hallway leading to the stadium, I could see an entrance with a light in the distance.
thump thump. Seeing this, his heart started beating rapidly without realizing it. It’s awkward to tell anyone, but he’s getting nervous.
‘…even if I lose, I wish I didn’t lose horribly.’
If Black Hawk’s successor were to be humiliated in Dalian, it was certain that it would somehow harm the company’s image. Tensions that weren’t even there in the qualifiers began to arise as the crowds were present.
As the breathing gradually became rough, Ryu Seo-yeon put her hand on her chest and tried to calm her down. Meanwhile, the entrance was getting closer and closer.
Ryu Seo-yeon saw something and stopped walking. Someone was crouching near the entrance and patting the floor. Ryu Seo-yeon was startled by the strangeness, and immediately recognized his face and put his name in his mouth.
“Seo-han?”
I don’t know why you are here. It was obviously a sergeant. Seo Ji-han, who heard the voice, touched the floor and got up.
Seo Ji-han looked at Ryu Seo-yeon with a casual expression.
“long time no see. Ryu Seo-yeon.”
“…it’s just something I didn’t see at the sports festival. Why are you here after abstaining?”
“I have something to ask you. I have heard something.”
“I am playing now. Ask me later.”
Ryu Seo-yeon tried to pass by, but Seo Ji-han’s words stopped Ryu Seo-yeon’s steps.
“He tried to imprison me.”
Ryu Seo-yeon, who showed embarrassment on her face, turned her head. Seo Ji-han looked at her face and burst into laughter.
“I am. I hope it was true, but looking at that expression, it was real.”
“I have ears, too.”
Seo Ji-han leaned against the wall, folded her arms, and looked at Ryu Seo-yeon in a relaxed posture. She then opened her mouth as if she knew everything.
“Let’s ask. Why?”
It was pretentious, but it was purely to confess.
‘Please, not just because the price was cut.’
It was a face that captured the atmosphere, but Seo Ji-han’s inner feelings were tense enough to be frivolous. But the bluff was surprisingly paid off.
‘Hey, you know the reason…?’
In Ryu Seo-yeon’s mind, the conversation she had with Arthur passed quickly.
[-I want him to quit aspiring hero.]
[-The people closest to me seem to overlap with him.]
[-Isn’t it admirable to put aside other things and work hard for a goal? Seo Ji-han is that kind of person to me.]
So you know all of these?
Does that guy have to ask him to know? Or to shame you? Either way, what is certain is that from the nape of Ryu Seo-yeon’s neck, fever rose one after the other, and her face and ears were red hot.
“Tell me. Why is that?”
“Rain, get out of the way!”
“Cuckoo!”
Ryu Seo-yeon pushed Seo Ji-han as hard as she could and ran to the entrance. bang! Seo Ji-han banged her head against her wall and fell.
“Ugh. hey!!!”
He grabbed the back of the head and shouted, but Ryu Seo-yeon had already entered the stadium. The cheers, which had been quiet for a while, grew again at Ryu Seo-yeon’s position. Seo Ji-han’s voice could not be heard.
‘Is that really crazy…’
At the end of the day, the durability stats would have gone up by one more level. I didn’t know she would be so angry that her face turned red. Seo Ji-han sighed and stood up.
And I looked back.
A black robed man stood in the quiet long hallway. Seo Ji-han smiled at the monster and said.
“Are you still waiting for the conversation? He’s very smart.”
“…what are you? A guy who isn’t even from the top.”
The monster growled in a low tone of voice.
“How did you break the barrier…!”
What Seo Ji-han had just touched on the floor was the construction of the barrier installed at the entrance. He felt it from the magical knowledge he had, it was a combination of a barrier that cuts off space and space magic that moves the location.
If it were not for Seo Ji-han, Ryu Seo-yeon could not enter the stadium and would have disappeared to the place designated by the barrier.
“I just erased it because someone had scribbled it on the floor. Don’t you know that graffiti in public facilities is a fine?”
“Your tongue is so cocky.”
Whether it was a wizard capable of close combat, he pulled out a long sword from his pocket. Seo Ji-han saw it and took a step closer.
“So where do you belong? His face looks old, so he doesn’t seem to belong to the tower. Is it the real T.O Corporation?”
“It’s not fun.”
Paah! As he rushed at a high speed, Seo Ji-han took out an assault wolf from his holster.
[Matan – Black 黑]
black magic bullet.
Its percussion sound was drowned out by the cheers that leaked from the entrance.
