The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 219: Happening…?

AAU.

The branch heads turned over the report.

Official website.

After uploading emergency update details.

01:14:58 seconds elapsed.

Sreuk

Player, Lee Hoyeol.

First sighted in Utah, United States.

A group of asteroids that entered the atmosphere (unimplemented skill, presumed to be Meteor Strike) were sent back into space. Later, he manifested a portal and said, Those are small wishes.

Below, an eyewitness account was attached.

It was as if he pressed a rewind button.

It was like watching fireworks? Well, it might seem that way to a child. Anyway, Meteor Strike. Thats what it is, right?

Thats right. The final skill of the mage class, which was only at the concept stage when Arcana was just a game. Well, Im shocked such a skill even existed

He went one step further and sent them back.

Its too early to be surprised. Lets move on.

Sreuk

Easter Island in the South Pacific.

An abnormal phenomenon was detected in the western sea.

Its presumed to be a mana cloud manifested by the Tower Master.

After that, a violent mana clash occurred for about an hour.

From the moment the mana clashed. Perhaps Yusras General Manager, Lee Hoyeol, was waging a battle with the Tower Master. What on earth happened in that fog?

There is observational data captured from outside.

The surrounding sea area evaporated and then froze again? Wait. It penetrated such a thick mana cloud and had such an effect? So, what happened in there?

They must have gone back and forth between fire and ice.

Huh.

The branch heads clicked their tongues and turned the pages.

The mana cloud slowly cleared up and the situation was over. What followed was the same interview we watched together. As usual, Yusras General Manager Lee Hoyeol revealed the full story of the incident.

The interview video appeared on the monitor.

The Tower Master was unconscious and has woken up.

I never thought the Tower Master was in such a state.

I never imagined that he revealed the circumstances in more detail like that. If I were him, I would have just skipped it out. It must have been an internal matter of the Mage Tower

That means he will take responsibility for the case. As the chief.

In the first place, people like us cant fathom it.

Yeah, how could he keep up that confidence?

On the screen.

Hoyeol declared without hesitation.

-However, you have nothing to worry about now.

Really, its so reassuring.

You shouldnt be complacent. We need to be alert to things that havent helped us.

By the way, did you guys understand what he said next?

What did he say next?

Listen.

The class is over now.

Out of nowhere, he said the class ended.

What class was he talking about?

It was Hoyeols last words.

Thanks to this, the worlds attention inevitably turned to Hoyeol again.

*

What else it could be, its a true education

Lee Hoyeol educated the Tower Master???

Of course. Is there any other possibility??

The only thing that has been properly revealed is the whereabouts of those two

True education, huh.

Those were some empty words, Grandfel.!

I would admit it. As I formed the circle, the power of oddity also increased sharply. It was true that I was able to overwhelm the Tower Master because of this.

However.

As if the Sword Saint isnt enough, now the Tower Master???

If this isnt a combination of pen and sword, what else is this

At this rate, hes gonna teach the dragons next

Just plainly.

Just by stating the facts, I received undeserved expectations.

Even if they lacked the context, seriously this!

Especially that comment at the end.

What, Im gonna educate the dragons?!

Not too long ago.

The day when good fortune followed me because of the sirens blessing.

I had seen it on the Arcana Continent when I looked through [Evil Eyes Telescope]. The fearsomeness of the Elder Dragon, Eunaxus! Dragon was in an entirely different weight class.

The dragon teared up the dimensions.

It might be different if I could complete [Incomplete Quick Swordmanship] and reach the level of transcendence with swordsmanship At this point, I had no intention of fighting against the dragons.

While someone was being serious.

The world is noisy.

Clink

Tillting the tea cup.

You really speak like its someone elses business, Grandfel.

However, Grandfels attitude was not actually wrong.

It was not because of me that the world was being noisy.

It was purely because of the Tower Master.

I got up from my seat after emptying my teacup.

I dont plan on being the only one suffering anymore.

Now, it was time for payback.

.

.

.

The top floor of the Mage Tower.

I couldnt see my face, but I could guess.

I must be making a very cold face right now.

It couldnt be helped.

A cat came into my field of vision.

Lick

It stuck out its tongue and licked the cotton ball on its front paws.

Had it finally noticed my cold gaze?

It looked at me and opened its mouth.

What came out was not a meowing sound, but human words.

Thanks to someone, my body was cut to pieces. I temporarily changed my form to one best suited for recovery. This form is perfect to stretch out all day.

Neither I nor Grandfel answered.

I had said it before.

Cats cuteness didnt work on me or on Grandfel.

Thanks to this, my attitude didnt loosen up one bit.

Tower Master, theres an answer I need to hear from you.

As expected, I boldly skipped the honorifics.

Fortunately, the Tower Master didnt care about such things.

It was a relief that he was not old-fashioned like anyone else.

An answer, you said. I guess I should give it to you. In that regard, even if Ive turned into a cat, I have nothing to say for myself. As you may have guessed, my plan has failed spectacularly.

Even if you have ten mouths, you still would have nothing to say for yourself.

Indeed, it was exactly as I heard from Marcelo.

He liked to do and say things as he pleased.

Of course, this side was no different.

It was a radical interference process.

Look at this.

Pointing out all the wrong things first.

I continued speaking as if I was doing pre-verification against the Tower Master.

If you wanted your manifestation to be successful, you needed a broader understanding of the exploration target. However, your biggest mistake of all would be overlooking the unconsciousness left in your body.

Tower Masters cat ears turned pointed.

Youre so persistent. I almost regret that I was once curious about you, however brief it was. Do I have to thoroughly reveal my flaws before I can salve my conscience?

Of course, I paid no heed and continued talking.

Ive told you.

I brought a wind of tears to the Mage Tower.

What a nag.

Pat pat

My instructions ended only when the Tower Master brushed off his pointed ears with his front paw. Of course, I didnt just spit out harsh words. I took pride in not sparing praise when it came to things that deserved praise.

Still, the Meteor Strike was impressive.

Thanks to him, I learned a lot from just looking over my shoulder.

The super-high-level magic that the Tower Masters body manifested!

I couldnt say I could make use of it at this point.

I could tell without having to experience it.

It consumed an extreme amount of mana.

Even the Tower Master had blood spurting out of his mouth due to the recoil.

Still, its important to have it engraved in my mind.

Even if I couldnt use it right away, there would come a day when I would need to use it in the future.

I assure you.

Among the magic I could manifest.

Meteor Strikes destructive power was by far the strongest.

If I add oddity to that.

Wouldnt that destructive power truly be beyond imagination?

The Tower Masters cat tail wiggled.

That is truly a comforting compliment, Chief Lee Hoyeol. Looking back at the memories left in my body, I dont think there was a single magic that worked effectively on you. The harsh words arent enough, so now youre just laying it out to the person in front of you.

Then he slumped down like a real cat.

Thanks to that, my devastated consciousness dried up even more.

Devastated consciousness.

Even if he hadnt mentioned it, I was going to ask.

I opened my mouth, ignoring the Tower Masters whining.

What happened in the space of consciousness?

The Tower Master was also a transcendent.

I didnt have to explain what space of consciousness meant.

The space of consciousness was definitely similar to the social gathering of time and space.

It also existed in the pointed hat.

The Tower Master slowly opened his closed eyes.

I was paying for a price.

What do you mean by a price?

How many generations have it been passed down? It must be the punishment for breaking the rules of the archmage that even I cannot fathom. If trying to stop such an ugly plan is a crime, then I am guilty.

An ugly plan.

As shown in the Tower Masters quest.

He was referring to the conspiracy of the archmages.

I didnt have to ask.

The Tower Master willingly kept talking.

I was in a crisis where I couldnt even send telepathy to my disciple As you can see, Chief Lee Hoyeol, its thanks to you. I could survive in the form of a cat like this. I would like to formally express my gratitude.

If anyone heard it, they would think I returned his consciousness to a cats body.

Id like to change to topic, but.

There was something I needed to ask before that.

So what exactly was the conspiracy of the archmages?

Even if you understand my secrets and magic structures Ive never seen before. You wouldnt have guessed their ugly plan.

The Tower Master dragged it out.

Dont be alarmed. The archmages, they

His tongue stopped licking the cotton pad and he continued speaking seriously.

They have the same purpose as the demons.

The demons.

Frankly.

I wasnt surprised at all.

They truly wanted the destruction of the Arcana Continent. Only for that one purpose. They have been brainwashing the new vessels, inheriting the knowledge of the archmage.

Why did the archmages wish for the destruction of the Arcana Continent?

Even though I didnt know the reason, I had a guess.

There was a reason why the Arcana Continent had become like this.

It was because powerful people like the archmage wanted it to perish.

Without any resistance to the demons, it would have collapsed.

Ive guessed as much.

At my calm answer, the Tower Masters hair stood on end.

Youve guessed it?

Sniff-sniff

He wrinkled his nose and let out an exclamation.

Indeed, it doesnt smell like lying. I shouldnt have dragged it out, Chief Lee Hoyeol. I wanted to be of help to you, my benefactor. Such a shame.

If you want to help.

You dont have to worry about that.

As long as Tower Master returned to the Mage Tower.

Youd better be prepared.

I was planning to hand over a lot of work.

From now on, I would be busy struggling.

Of course, this didnt mean I would hand over the work right away.

I shouldnt bother someone whos in recovery.

I should go back.

I paused as I tried to turn away.

No, I still had to ask him one more question.

Thanks to my reversal magic.

The Mage Towers consciousness returned to its original body from the pointed hat.

So what happened to Jessies class?

More importantly, was it okay to keep wearing that ominous pointed hat?

The Tower Master yawned leisurely.

I was wondering what you were worried about.

Then he licked his cotton pad again.

Youre worrying for nothing, Chief Lee Hoyeol.

Hed been saying things that I didnt understand.

Isnt it natural that those old men wont talk to my disciple for a while? Everyone, including me, felt your presence, Chief Lee Hoyeol. What kind of crazy person could have evil intentions when facing you?

Wait, that meant.

The archmages were scared of me?

At this point, I was starting to get scared.

Could it be.

I had become much stronger.

More than I thought? contemporary romance

.

.

.

If unnecessarily taking things seriously was a sin, then I was guilty of it.

Before even a day had passed.

I returned to my daily routine.

In other words,

In the Yusra Kingdoms office.

I dealt with the backlog of documents

In the process, I encountered someone unexpected.

No. 1 in Arcanas official ranking.

Dragon knight, Skal.

When he entered the office, he opened his mouth.

Nice to meet you, Sir Lee Hoyeol.

Hey, Skal-ssi.

Why do you talk like that from the beginning?!

Why are you greeting me formally as if its the Middle Ages? Grandfel ruined a lot of people.

For a moment, I swallowed a sigh inside.

I checked the quest window.

[World quest: Evil Dragon Hunter]

You who hunted a clan of evil dragons.

The legend of the mountain is calling you.

Reach the top of the Zero Mountain. (In progress)

If it was the Dragon Knight Skal.

He probably knew information related to the World Quest.

That was what I thought.

Well, even if he doesnt know.

With the emergence of the Zero Mountain.

Now that dragons had officially started kicking up.

I would need to put the puzzle pieces of the quest together with Skal.

Take a seat.

At my suggestion, Skal sat down straight away.

But, for some reason, he looked restless since earlier.

I was going to have a cup of tea to keep us getting along well in the future.

If it was that urgent, it couldnt be helped.

Ive heard the story.

Enoch had reported to me.

I heard there was something he had to tell me.

Skal had been waiting for me in front of the Golden Palace since yesterday.

Well, I didnt mean to stand him up.

Even if he hadnt come, I was planning on having a conversation.

Id say the timing was bad from Skals point of view.

I felt bad, so I spoke more generously than usual.

You may state your business.

Then, as if he had been waiting, Skal poured out the story.

As you might have guessed.

It was a story about the dragon.

But.

What did you just say, Skal?

Whos back in the Arcana continent?

A greaaaat family?

No way.

Hey.

No.

For real?!
