The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 217: Lesson (2)

Marcelo Simuard.

The owner of a talent that even the demon king who lived off the Simuard family coveted. There was nothing that could stand in the way of his natural talent. Stories like that circulated among the mage families in the continent.

I heard that the Simuard family is one of the greatest geniuses

As expected, its not a talent that is limited to the family!

Its a talent worthy of the senior position in the Mage Tower.

Because they were from a mage family, they knew better than anyone else what kind of place the Magic Tower was. However, not only they said he could enter the Mage Tower, they even said he was able to hold the senior position.

Someone could have argued that it was an exaggeration.

But nobody pointed that out.

It was only natural.

How can a boy like this master the magic of all mainstream schools!?

Around the age of five.

Magic of the twenty branches that supported the Mage Tower.

Marcelo was able to freely manifest those mainstream magic to the intermediate level.

There was no way that Marcelo would be held back from entering the Mage Tower.

Is that skinny boy Simuards child?

Oh my gosh.

Talking about the apprentice mages, these are quite unfamiliar reactions.

In the Mage Tower, apprentice mages were treated like newborn chicks.

They couldnt belong to a school and they had no ability to prove it. However, Marcelo was an exception. He had received the attention of many seniors since he was an apprentice mage.

His talent is incomparable.

Its desirable, but its dangerous.

On the contrary, it could threaten my position.

A mere apprentice mage was being kept in check by senior mages?

It was unimaginable in the past and even now.

No, it was unprecedented in the history of the Mage Tower.

Some even breathed a sigh of relief.

I should be thankful that I am not from the same generation as him.

No matter how talented he was.

The Mage Tower was not a space where you could relax.

Even if Marcelo could threaten their position.

It would take a lot of time.

Of course. contemporary romance

Simuard passed the preliminary verification?

He hasnt even chosen a branch yet, right?

Are you saying he finished his research during his apprenticeship?

Mastery in apprenticeship.

It was as if he had been waiting for a promotion.

Thanks to Marcelo, who passed the preliminary verification and attended the regular conference, their complacency disappeared.

From that point on, Marcelo became a competitor to his predecessors.

It depends on which branch he chooses.

One of our seats will be at stake.

Gosh, this is ridiculous

However.

Marcelo beat their predictions once again.

It was created without selection.

Theory of magic.

It was considered to have changed the history of magic.

A completely new branch.

Since then, it had been known as such.

The theory of magic advanced all magic to the next level, and Marcelo was recognized for his efforts and became a senior mage. And he rose to the position of chief, beating out the leading candidate, Matis.

It was the birth of the youngest chief who achieved the greatest achievement.

That day, Marcelo participated in the roundtable meeting as the chief.

He encountered the Tower Master for the first time.

And then they faced each other.

Hmm, this little boy looks extremely weak to bear the weight of the chief. Its not too late now. Why dont you go back to your senior position and take care of that body first?

!

For the first time in his life, a wall blocked his path.

The wall, the Tower Master, was only harsh to Marcelo.

Even in the face of the theory of magic, his attitude was consistent.

Magic isnt something you can solve with lines of text, kid.

Its possible with the theory of magic. And please refrain from calling me kid, I am well past the age of adulthood.

I see. I understand, Little Chief Marcelo.

From time to time, the Tower Master would criticize Marcelo.

Fortunately, everyone in the Mage Tower except the Tower Master knew Marcelos talent. Otherwise, If it wasnt for that, he would have been so insulted to the point that he would have to give up his position as chief and leave.

At that sight, Yugwid swallowed a smile.

I never thought the Tower Master would have such a crooked side.

Including her.

All mages couldnt be categorized as normal.

Like she said, the same was true for Marcelo.

To put it simply

The Tower Master and Marcelo were only twisted against each other.

Do you know? Youre just basically picking at me.

Thats rude, Little Chief.

Changing the word order doesnt change the meaning.

Okay, Chief Kid.

No one could have imagined it.

The one and only Tower Master.

To think that the Tower Master and the chief mage would be having such a childish conversation on the top floor.

However, the parallel lines between the two people, which never seemed to come into contact, were suddenly and one-sidedly broken off one day.

Tower Master?

Like a caterpillar curled up in a pupa.

The Tower Master was trapped in a mana sphere.

It wasnt anyones fault.

Its definitely a trace of the Tower Masters mana.

The Tower Master did it on its own.

Marcelo couldnt understand.

He couldnt accept it.

The only wall that stood in his way, the Tower Master.

It was as if he couldnt break the wall with his own power.

But wasnt there a saying that time heals all wounds?

As the years went by, Marcelo finally admitted it.

I was ignorant.

Actually, the Tower Master had accurately recognized the shortcomings of the theory of magic.

Marcelo further developed the theory of magic, recalling his conversation with the Tower Master. Waiting for the day when he would meet the Tower Master again and prove himself to the Tower Master

.

.

.

I realized it once again.

All the mages have some screws loose!

Marcelo didnt simply respect the Tower Master.

To sum it up.

It was a twisted feeling of wanting the Tower Master to be defeated by his own hand.

If I were to boil it down to one word, it would be a love-hate relationship!

Im sorry to chase after you without telling you, Sir Hoyeol.

You dont have to apologize, Marcelo.

As I always say, the more reinforcements the better.

However, out of conscience, I couldnt bring many reinforcements. Wasnt I the one who got caught up in difficult situations due to the words I spoke while I was struggling?

To be honest, I would like to order all of them to go.

From the Great Alliance to the Knights of Lionheart.

I wanted to make use of their strong support.

But even now, except for a select view, they wouldnt be safe facing the Tower Master.

In particular, the player side would be annihilated.

Of course, Jessie is an exception.

Jessi, who was the Tower Masters disciple and was favored, was an exception as she was treated like a backup.

Although Marcelo joined.

I didnt have to worry about Marcelo.

Putting my abilities aside, it was my first time seeing it.

I will take responsibility for this through the procedure after I return. But I have a reason why I cant back down. Its the story I just told you.

Marcelo was so ambitious.

So much that I could feel his emotion through the telepathy.

I nodded.

I understand, Marcelo.

Now that Marcelo had joined.

This was no longer a lesson exclusive to Jessie.

Of course, I would learn the archmages magic by sneaking a look.

Even Marcelo wanted to prove his growth to the Tower Master.

It was a battlefield where each persons story got intertwined.

Apprentice Mage Jessie Heinness.

Yes! I am listening, Chief Marcelo!

I would like to ask for your understanding as well.

Ah, yes! Thats okay! Though Im not sure about what!

I didnt reveal the exact identity of the archmage.

Maybe that was why.

Jessie seemed to just assume that Marcelo had ties to the Archmage.

Of course, Marcelo was the same way.

He hasnt noticed yet that the Tower Master is unconscious.

No, in the first place, did he know that the Tower Master was an archmage? Considering that the identities of the previous archmages before the Tower Master were not widely known, it was very unlikely that he knew.

Jessie was an adventurer, so she was an unusual case in that she was known to be an archmage.

Its too twisted.

For now, I swallowed a sigh.

I am the only one who feels heavy.

This is the perfect example of the saying ignorance is bliss!

Wow, this was all illusion magic!

Jessie really thought it was a lesson.

Its been a long time since we met again, but you dont even have an answer.

Marcelo was talking to the shell of the Tower Master.

I knew all the complicated circumstances.

It was a very serious situation for me alone.

But I couldnt express it.

Putting aside Grandfels pride.

I didnt even get a chance to do that in the first place.

[The body of the Tower Master appears.]

!

An appearance message.

What it meant was simple.

So far, it had only been a preview.

The scenery manifested by illusion magic began to slowly clear away.

Soon, it converted to pure mana.

In that state, it immediately ignited fire.

Marcelo gritted his teeth.

You really dont understand the situation.

The founder of the theory of magic.

Marcelo was the one who established all mainstream magic as a theory.

Of course.

That meant he understood the vicious compatibility of magic better than anyone else.

Marcelo immediately deployed a water barrier.

Water for fire!

Jessie said that, but.

The magic was not that simple.

Considering the effort that went into the interference process.

It was like manifesting three high-level magics at the same time.

Crackle!

Nevertheless, it was not enough.

The fact that water was superior to fire also depended on the level. The demonic fire that devoured everything even evaporated the water.

Tsk.

I couldnt believe that came out of Marcelos mouth. freewebno(v)el

It was really not a common sight.

By the way, I couldnt just watch with my arms crossed forever.

I realized it for sure.

The body of the Tower Master was clearly running rampant.

This is going too far.

There must be a gap that came from having his consciousness and body separated.

I cant even imagine the interference process.

It seemed the Tower Master couldnt manifest perfectly.

Regardless of the arrangement left by its consciousness.

The body just flew.

So from now on, it could no longer be called a lesson.

What I was going to say was already decided.

As the chief, I cant approve this lesson.

Although I opened my mouth bravely.

The body of the Tower Master could even crush Marcelos magic that prioritized compatibility. Even if I put forward the [Blessing of the First World Tree], I might not be able to defeat it with magic alone.

He had a circle just like me.

In the end, I had no choice but to go all out from the beginning.

I immediately prepared to manifest oddity.

As expected, the most efficient one would be the reversal magic.

However, if I reversed the attribute magic, it would just revert to pure mana.

The Tower Master will interfere with that magic again.

No matter how powerful the Tower Master was, his mana was not infinite.

If he consumed this much mana, it would definitely put a strain on his body.

Illusion and fire magic.

It was one of the magic that competed for the top position in terms of mana consumption.

Do you think it will be successful?

To defeat the archmages, one must be meticulous. It was safe to say that my mana regeneration was at its maximum while [Blessing of the First World Tree] was active. I was thinking of putting the superiority of mana first.

However.

!

Huh?

Marcelo and Jessie paused.

In the Tower Masters body, which showed no emotional changes or even consciousness, an abnormality was detected. A stream of blood was flowing down from the Tower Masters mouth.

Perhaps she realized it because she had experienced it herself.

Jesse looked at me and said.

That must be mana exhaustion.?

Meteor Strikes, illusion, and even fire magic.

With that series of manifestations.

If you think your body will be fine, then you have no conscience.

At this point, I would declare it coldly.

Tower Master, your plan.

I think its a big failure.

I dont understand.

His yearning was twisted.

But Marcelo definitely respected the Tower Master.

The Tower Master was the only one who had seen through his shortcomings.

For what reason?

Marcelos pupils shook.

He thought he could finally be recognized by the Tower Master.

The Tower Master was no longer be the Tower Master he knew.

I opened my mouth.

Jessie Heinness.

Yes, Im listening!

I have to tell you some unfortunate news.

Oh, even if you didnt, I was going to say it!

No voice came from the pointed hat.

Jessie conveyed the message to it.

I could tell.

Even in the pointed hat, something was happening.

But it was okay.

The hurtful lesson ended here.

I continued.

Your lesson will end here.

Yes! I accept it!

But stay focused until the end.

Yes?

As the class chief, I will take responsibility to finish this lesson.

Meteor strike.

Illusion magic.

And the current fire magic.

I realized this by watching the high-ranking magic displayed by the Tower Master.

Like I said with my own mouth.

Daring to look down on the state of transcendence.

I felt like I had reached the state of oddity.

In other words.

There was nothing to learn from your manifestation.

Didnt I tell you? Everything has changed.

This kind of fire magic.

The oddity of ice magic could reverse it.

In other words, it could be offset with [Absolute Zero].

Crack!

In a flash.

The area cooled down to the point that I could see my breath.

I looked at the Tower Master and said.

From here on, I will start my class.

I will not accept questions during class.

Because the one who will answer is not me, but you, Tower Master.

Thats a long exclamation, Grandfel.

In that regard, be prepared, Tower Master.

I was the one who filled up Mage Tower with tears just from the pre-verification alone.

My first class will definitely not be easy!

.

Amid a whirlwind of fluctuating mana.

Elder Mage Yugwid arrived late.

And all twenty senior mages witnessed it.

Seriously, Chief, you!!
