I Became an Academy Regular

◈ Tower – ?F (6)

I spoke to someone who wasn’t a wizard and was watching from beyond.

“Everything I’m watching sucks.”

When he spoke in a tone that seemed to know everything, the wizard was startled. I guess he didn’t know that only the circuit on the back of his hand could be detected. This is the deception of the [Essence Quest] trait. Just by looking at a part, you can figure out what magic it is.

The wizard walked away, but it didn’t mean much. It’s just needlessly lengthening the conversation.

“I didn’t tell him. Don’t hide, just show up.”

The wizard did not respond to my words. As soon as he heard the governor’s order, he nodded and rolled up his sleeves. A new blue line was drawn and a different magic appeared.

Whoa! A translucent screen comes to mind. Communication magic was visualized and shared. A crackling sound was heard for a moment, and then a voice began to flow.

[-Are you a hero or Seo-han?]

“…the title of hero can be omitted.”

Whenever I say the word hero so seriously, I feel like I want to hide in a mouse hole. This voice is probably Ivan. She is the original head of the 25th floor, which Ellen is currently in charge of.

There’s nothing good about making the headmaster look hateful on the first impression, so we’ll have to be polite first. I coughed and cleared my throat.

“Hmmm. I didn’t expect to see you so easily. Since when have you been watching?”

[-···ah. I’m talking about this in case I misunderstood, but in the first place, communication was established to receive reports about the Child of Prophecy. I was watching him as he went down to Daeshinjeon at will. But on the way, I was informed that I had met you guys. and···.]

Ivan’s tone became a little stiff.

[-I heard that he uses magical magic.]

It must have been reported immediately after witnessing my magic while fighting monsters. There was no way that the direct subordinates of the Tower faction were unaware of Ron Ahat’s magic.

“So I was curious to see what it was.”

When there was no answer, I meekly rolled up my sleeves.

“Do you want to check out the magic I used? I’ll show you that it’s not something to hide.”

[-···Is that true?]

Ivan seemed puzzled by my cooperative attitude. He seems to be a little misunderstood.

“We are not going up to fight you now. I’m here because I want to talk about the tower attack.”

Above all, by demonstrating the magic of the wind attribute, the owners will not underestimate us. Because this served as proof that I am Ahat’s successor.

I activated my magic by moving my mana. Whoo! Soon, the wind began to sway slowly around him. The wizard stumbled past him and backed away.

Ivan, who was watching this spectacle from beyond the magic, opened his mouth immediately.

[-I did, but that’s Ahat-san’s wind attribute magic.]

“That’s right.”

He raised the back of his hand to face the translucent screen. The blue circuit drawn on the back of his hand clearly confirmed that it was the magic of the wind attribute.

[-You… were you Ahat-san’s hidden child?]

nonsense out of nowhere. I lowered my hand and answered.

“It’s not like that. Due to a number of circumstances, I inherited it. You know better about Ahat-sama.”

[-It’s a circumstance…. I understand for now. We are also preparing to meet with you. See you in the nearest town on the 48th floor. Please understand that we cannot go down due to various things.]

“I understand. If nothing goes wrong, it will arrive tomorrow or around the sand.”

[-then.]

Communication ended with that. The wizard glanced at me, and he quietly walked away without a word. Knowing that I am Ahat’s successor, his attitude seems to have become more cautious.

‘Are you sure you did well?’

So I spent my time being vigilant and went back to the camp. She entered the tent and carefully woke Arthur Grann. When her hand touched Arthur Grand, as if waiting, he immediately opened his eyes and responded.

“Ham. You suffered.”

Arthur Grann covered his mouth and yawned. Then he got up and asked.

“Is there anything special about it?”

it’s special It would be better to tell in advance.

“I made contact with the owner. It must have been the housekeeper who originally served as the manager of the 25th floor. I had a little chat with him.”

Arthur Gran seems to have woken up with that. She immediately asked in a sleepy voice.

“What do you say? Maybe something like a warning…”

“no. They said I’d see you on the 48th floor. I think he was thinking of having a conversation too.”

“after. That’s a good thing.”

Arthur Grand, who was ready, looked back before leaving the tent.

“You must be tired, so go to sleep. Tomorrow will be a difficult journey.”

“Yep. please.”

I went inside the sleeping bag I had laid out beforehand. Astiel rolled into a corner and was sleeping quietly.

I went into my sleeping bag and closed my eyes, remembering the advice Beta gave me earlier.

‘Suggest yourself.’

Although there is a certain way, ‘Strong Mind’ is a perk that is difficult to intentionally activate. Because of that, there was no sharp number that came to mind to activate it right away.

‘Self-suggestion, self-suggestion, self-suggestion …’.

I want to see the future here, not me in the present. I kept thinking about it in my mind. I can feel myself slowly falling asleep. And this time, the foreknowledge began to appear.

There are also villages on the 48th floor. As it was close to the 50th floor, most people do not live in the area, so the village was always quiet. But now it is crowded with people.

It was because of a mixture of people who had fled from the 50th floor and people who had originally lived there. We are going to go down to the 25th floor step by step, but it is still a long way to go. He was temporarily stuck on the 48th floor as he moved quickly.

I saw a group of three people approaching the village. Another group followed him.

“There are a lot of people. The atmosphere is stiff.”

Seo Ji-han, who was at the forefront, observed the crowd from afar and turned around.

“President. I think it would be a good idea to put on a robe before going in.”

Then Arthur Gran also nodded in agreement.

“It’s a sympathy.”

At Astiel’s question, Seo Han took out a robe from his backpack and put it on to cover his holy sword.

“Perhaps the civilians think that the tower is shaped like this because of the temple. Wouldn’t it be stony if I went into town wearing a nun’s robe?”

At that, Astiel hurriedly took off her nun and put it on along with the robe. And he asked, putting his hood back on.

“Didn’t you say that you contacted the heads of state first?”

“yes. They were watching from the other side.”

Seo Ji-han looked back. Beta was quietly following behind. By the way, we only accompany, but since the first day we haven’t talked to each other. When they reached the village through the crowds, they were blocked by the guards at the entrance.

“for a moment. Who are you?”

It is difficult to reveal your identity here. When I couldn’t talk carelessly, Beta, who was behind me, came out with a frustrated expression. There was no way the wizards could not recognize the characteristic figure that covered his face with a bandage.

“Do not block the road and get out of the way?”

“Uh…. Are you back?”

“yes. These people have to go in together, so please come out.”

“…if you guarantee it, it will be fine.”

“It’s not a guarantee.”

The wizards glared carefully at the sergeant party and veered to the side. Following the leading Beta, they entered the village together.

“I’m going to be in that useless big tent in the middle.”

He pointed to the place where the Beta was installed in a conspicuous manner. As I walked straight there, I saw the heads of households standing nearby.

crumble.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, they also looked in this direction.

Uni Grace. The lord of the lightning attribute.

Gail Ivan. The head of the land attribute.

Lace Natalie. The head of the ice attribute.

Caer Dewan. The head of water properties.

Carol Aiden. The lord of the fire attribute.

Except for Ron Ahart, all the heads of state were gathered. The manager of the 50th floor, Ellen’s grandfather, was nowhere to be seen. The heads of state were looking at them with an interesting gaze rather than a boundary.

It was Carol who spoke first. She approached Seo Ji-han and asked.

“long time no see. How is her daughter doing?”

“yes. I’m doing well.”

Seo Ji-han greeted Carol Aiden.

Of course, even the friend’s mother was vigilant. She doesn’t seem to have any ill feelings, but when she thinks about what the top powers have done, even the heads of state are deceived. Even if the manager on the 50th floor did it on his own.

Carol said with her arms crossed.

“Afterward, tell me to go back to the 25th floor when you return to the ground. If you don’t want to be offended.”

All the heads of state look tired. It’s crazy to think that the 50th floor collapsed and the survivors were led to build a base again. After the conversation with Carol was over, Ivan, who was watching, said.

“We’re talking here, so let’s go inside. There are also the director and candidacy of the saint.”

At Ivan’s suggestion, I went into the tent. A table or chair was placed inside, perhaps for a meeting.

‘I made a round table here too.’

It was just a round table, but somehow it reminded me of the scenery on the 25th floor. Ivan suggested a seat and sat across from him.

“You must be tired of coming all the way here, but it would be better to go straight to the point than to pretend, right?”

“Yes. It’s more comfortable that way.”

Seo Ji-han looked at Ga-ju, who was sitting next to Ivan, while answering. No other Californians followed, but only Yuni Grace. It would be interesting to see how the conversation flows.

“You must have heard something about the Union. We plan to go up to the 50th floor and beyond to attack the tower soon.”

“When you say that, you mean that you will climb separately from us, right?”

“Yes. They don’t care about each other, they don’t get involved. You know the reason why this happened, don’t you?”

Seo Ji-han took a step back and Arthur Gran came forward.

“Our temple has decided to join the alliance led by Yoosung Academy. The dictatorial actions of the top powers destroyed trust, so we decided that we could no longer cooperate.”

“Puhaha.”

Then Grace burst out laughing. Her Arthur Gran’s gaze turned to her. Grace frowned. Sparks were bouncing around a little to see if they represent emotions.

“If anyone hears it, you know that only that person is sacrificing. This one is also protecting her by risking her life.”

“It’s absurd to put sacrificing yourself on the same line as sacrificing someone else’s command.”

“her. Are such absurd meanings so important? Do you mean that those who died in order to prevent erosion are meaningless deaths?”

“You are holding on to a pointless horsetail. We want to be respected for our choices about sacrifice.”

Arthur Grann opened his eyes softly and smirked unlikely.

“Considering what you have done, who knows if there is any other purpose in that sacrifice.”

“Hahaha…, Commander. Up until now, I thought he was a hard person, but his tongue moves well. I know how to scratch people well.”

Crazy! The frequency of sparks increased even more. If sparks are thrown, the tent may catch fire. Seo Ji-han and Astiel secretly exchanged glances.

Apparently, Arthur Gran was stressed in various ways while he was on the front line. I didn’t know the conversation would turn out like this.

“You go there. Grace.”

Ivan intervened to intervene. Arthur Gran and Grace also stopped talking there. Ivan sighed with an expressionless expression.

“Whoa, we know very well what the members of T.O.P have done. Still, I want you to know that the heads of state and the manager of the 50th floor are not of the same opinion.”

say that Seo Ji-han said, feeling the corners of her eyes tremble.

“If you wait and see, don’t you tacitly agree?”

“It won’t be an excuse, but this one also has its own circumstances. To be honest, I also think that it is karma that T.O.P has been neglected by the Imperial Family and the Great Shrine.”

“Hey, Ivan.”

Grace called for Ivan and looked at her. But Ivan didn’t even look at her.

“I knew what the Union was asking for. A lot of things have happened in the meantime, so it will be difficult for our relationship to get better, but we can prevent it from getting worse.”

Gail Ivan. Again, there was a reason Ahat was the only member of the family who treated him favorably.

“thank you. Our union is in the same position. But where is the manager on the 50th floor?”

“I remain on the 49th floor and guard the front lines.”

Eventually, when the conversation was over, Seojihan and his party came out of the tent. The heads of state did not see where they had gone, and Beta was waiting.

“After all, you were the variable.”

He couldn’t see it covered with a bandage, but he could tell he was frowned in an unpleasant way.

“I hope the erosion will not come just by changing the location.”

Seo Ji-han shrugged at those words.

“The advice was quite helpful.”

Reach floor 48 without damage.

Arthur Gran and Grace’s quarrel.

And until the conversation ended smoothly.

Up until now, it was all the future that Seo Ji-han saw as a foreshadowing dream.
