The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 122: History Being Overwritten (2)

Mage Tower.

A unique social space, the floating garden.

An apprentice mage, who was looking around while chatting, began.

Hey. Dont you think something has changed?

In response to the question, there was an exchange of glances between each other.

They received an answer immediately.

Hmm. You cut your bangs! It suits you much better!

What?

What, is that not it? Then Youve lost weight! Your cheeks are slim

Hey! Youre making fun of me!

Huh, thats not it either? So whats changed?

Shake.

Thats not it!

The apprentice mage shook their head for a moment.

A more secretive tone followed.

The atmosphere, the atmosphere. The atmosphere of the Mage Tower, not me!

Oh, was that what they meant?

Even though they were an apprentice mage, they could see and hear everything.

Of course, since they were a young chick who hadnt even decided on a school yet.

The changes that apprentice mage could notice were bound to be limited.

Honestly, theres been a lot of tension until now, hasnt it?

Right, right. Weve been busy adjusting to this world.

Thats why. These days, how should I put it? I feel like theres a procedure in place.

Above all, the biggest change was the behavior of the Mage Tower.

On the Arcana continent.

In this world of adventurers.

Mage Tower had always maintained its consistent stance.

Mage Tower was not to be involved in matters outside the tower.

Therefore.

It was the rule that mages should refrain from outside activities as much as possible.

More than anything, it doesnt make sense that the towers exit has become possible. I never imagined it!

They thought that was just how it was and they thought it would continue to be like that.

But suddenly, it became possible to exit the tower.

Of course, they had to go through the procedures.

This was unthinkable in the past.

Whisper.

The conversation continued in secret again.

Well, a skilled mage came back from the towers exit.

Thats right. I heard that rumor, too!

Isnt that really unexpected? Senior mages must have also filled out the application form. It means that she got accepted first, overcoming applications from prominent seniors.

There was indeed a class hierarchy in the Mage Tower.

That hierarchy could never be ignored.

Especially, compared to the gap between apprenticeship and mastery.

It could be said that the gap between mastery and seniority was several times larger.

So naturally, the topic naturally came up.

Chief Lee Hoyeols standard is definitely different for sure.

It was natural for the topic to turn to Hoyeol, the person who made that decision.

Although the person involved had no way of knowing.

It was inevitable that expectations would build up implicitly.

Isnt there a chance for us, too?

Chance? What chance? Are you

Hey. Dont talk nonsense again. Im talking about the towers exit.

Oh, the towers exit? Well, he didnt put any restrictions on applying for the towers exit.

Yeah, that was exactly the level of the chicks eyes.

If you were listening.

This was a perspective that could be considered cute.

Meanwhile, another table in the floating garden.

Leading the table was a skilled mage, Jibril.

Its clear that not only the atmosphere of our school has changed.

The people sitting around at the social gathering were all skilled mages.

There were about twenty skilled mages gathered from all the schools that existed in the Mage Tower. It was possible because Jibril, who had a wide range of connections, stepped forward.

Tak!

Jibril slammed the table with a frivolous fist.

Her eyes shone with curiosity.

Im sure there was an incident among the seniors that we didnt know about!

After listening to the stories of each school, she became convinced of her doubts.

Jibrils braids fluttered for a moment.

Someone said.

Youre right, Miss Jibril. You dont have to go look far back, you can tell just by looking at the regular conference. The seniors would grind their teeth just by hearing the name of Chief Lee Hoyeol.

Pre-verification ahead of the regular conference.

Wasnt it Hoyeol who just poured out rejections at Topaz Hall?

Of course, even if the reason for those rejections was perfectly valid.

If you considered the meaning of regular conferences for the schools

The seniors resentment that headed toward Hoyeol.

Those emotions shouldnt fade easily.

They should have been like that. It shouldnt be like flipping your palm.

Like, when did Senior Garfield become like that?

No, dont you think theyve gone beyond that and become completely different people?

After listening and seeing them. I feel like theyve become serious about something.

You can say that theyve become more solemn.

It wasnt just their feelings for Chief Lee Hoyeol.

It seemed that even the war of nerves between schools, which had been going on for a long time, had disappeared.

Well, as you could see now.

Werent there a few seniors facing each other at the floating garden?

Among the skilled mages, the man who was looking at the unusually gloomy table spewed out.

But that combination is unfamiliar. Just looking at it is breathtaking.

Of course, there was no need to pay attention to the personal lives of their seniors.

Tak tak

Jibril crossed her arms and tapped her fingers.

There must have been a reason

What on earth was the trigger?

No matter how hard she thought about it, she couldnt think of anything.

However, there was one thing she could guess.

Chief Lee Hoyeol must have been involved this time too, right?

Jibril asked a question and looked at Klee, who had been silent.

When it came to Hoyeol, there was no skilled mage here who knew about him more than Klee. Because Klee and Hoyeol had gone out of the tower alone.

Is that so? I dont know.

Klee, are you really going to run away on me like that?

I dont know. What can I do?

Klee felt wronged.

She was so curious that it was driving her crazy!

Klee recalled the conversation she had with Belliere yesterday.

I realized another thing today. Klee.

You realized something? What is it, Bellier-nim?

I realized that what you see is not everything.

?

When she first heard that, she was puzzled.

However, Bellieres gaze and tone were unusual. It was Klees first time seeing Senior Bellieres expression of deep emotion.

What on earth happened?

Of course, she couldnt ask Belliere just because she was curious.

However, at her next words, Klee was shocked.

Belliere laughed bitterly.

No, the Chief has always been the same.

!

I just noticed it late.

The chief?

There were only two chiefs in the Mage Tower.

She wasnt talking about Chief Marcelo.

Senior Belliere and Chief Marcelo had known each other for a long time.

So the person Belliere referring to was

It was definitely Hoyeol.

So Klee couldnt help but agonize over it in her own way.

In such a situation, she was called out to a social event.

That alone made her feel dizzy.

Ah. Come to think of it, it was like that, right?

?

Chief Lee Hoyeol is clearly a nobleman in the world of adventurers, and a nobleman from a very great family

Jibril, that!

Klee was astonished.

Words were very scary.

When did the rumor become so exaggerated?

What if such a rumor reached Hoyeols ears?

At that moment, Hoyeols voice echoed in her head.

You just have to act formally.

Absolutely not.

She couldnt listen to it anymore.

Klee hurriedly closed Jibrils mouth.

Ugh!

A small commotion occurred in the floating garden.

But as expected, because their eye level was different.

There were people who didnt care about the commotion.

It was the senior mages.

In the first place, they had no intention of listening to the chatter of the skilled mages.

How are you progressing, Senior Banglet?

Im just trying it out. Then what about Senior Nasrow?

Well, Im doing my best, too.

They were competing in good faith.

I hope we all get good results based on our efforts.

It wasnt even about the regular conference.

It was none other than about the opportunity to exit the tower.

Of course, there was one person who couldnt join the competition even if he wanted to.

Kuh.

Bensch shut his mouth.

It was called karma, but wasnt this too harsh?

Say something!

Every minute was too long.

There was not a word between them.

How could you call this a meeting?

But as if Benschs thoughts didnt matter.

Clink.

Matis tilted his cup calmly.

Chief Lee is probably mulling over his thoughts over tea.

However, even Matis couldnt guess Hoyeols thoughts.

Well, didnt Matis get hit in the back of his head just yesterday?

Who would have thought that the chief would have looked for Senios before them?

I cant keep up.

But one thing.

The reason why Chief Lee Hoyeol enjoyed tea time.

He felt like he could understand it a little bit.

Time seems to pass relatively leisurely.

Y-Yes? How can you tell my true feelings? Is it perhaps mind reading?!

?

*

My ears were itchy.

However, I didnt informally pick on my ears with my fingers.

And I was prepared for this level of itchiness.

They talk about me wherever I go.

The media.

Player community.

Mage Tower.

Even my older sisters, the existence I loved and hated.

It was all thanks to my magnificent oppression of the demon kings.

However, as I said, I was prepared and expected it.

Moreover, to some extent, I had acted while keeping that in mind.

If Id been struggling so far not to sink.

I had decided to move forward now.

Now is the right time since the demons activities have calmed down.

The right time to lay the groundwork for progress.

Of course, I didnt let my guard down.

Because I knew very well how despicable the demon race was.

It wouldnt be long before the demons came and watched me.

Well, it wasnt a bad thing for me.

Actually, dealing with demon-type monsters is so much easier.

Demon hunter.

To put it bluntly, it was a class that had several screws missing.

My combat power differed several times depending on whether [Natural Enemy Relationship] was activated or not. In addition, there were some loots of the demon kings that needed to be purified through the [Exorcism]

Its not good to rely on luck.

Of course, I couldnt just hope to meet the demons forever.

When [Natural Enemy Relationship] was turned off.

A battle in that state.

I needed to use this opportunity to study it seriously.

Yes, there were several wells that I had dug for that purpose.

I felt like I should try it all at least once.

Slide

That was where the thoughts ended.

I immediately looked through the applications for the towers exit.

Anyway, why were there so many of them?

I wanted to complain, but I brought this upon myself.

It was also impossible for Grandfel to pass it over to other people now.

An upright back and neck.

I took a moment to look at the applications without moving.

Suddenly, a familiar name caught my eye.

Peiyan Lot.

Senior mage of spirit school, Peiyan Lot.

I stopped my hand on her application form.

I had received great help from Peiyan.

Thanks to her, Haiel was able to be reborn as a {unique spirit}.

And she also worked hard on the Demon Kings Castle rupture.

I had many personal debts to Peiyan.

But I knew myself, Grandfel, very well.

Even if you pricked me with a needle, no blood would come out^[1]Even when pricked with a needle, no blood comes out = Its a term used to describe a very cold-hearted person. .

Our Grandfel-nim was a person who was faithful to the procedure and was stricter than anyone else when it came to public and private matters.

Naturally, personal feelings couldnt exist. I looked at Peiyans application for the towers exit with a very public eye.

Her purpose is reasonable.

Peiyans purpose for her towers exit actually made sense.

Above all, compared to Bensch, who persistently talked about promoting friendship.

This was a much more rational and representative purpose.

Collect and exchange information on the Arcana Continent through the contract spirit.

My knowledge of spiritology was only superficial.

But even I could recognize the potential of spirit.

Peiyan learned that she could summon spirits from a rupture.

So it was only natural that she felt the same way as I did.

Peiyans contract spirit is Fire Drake

It was a high-ranking fire spirit.

Since he was a high-ranking spirit, he must have seen and heard a lot of information about the situation on the Arcana Continent. That information would be of great help to me and, of course, to the Mage Tower.

You passed.

I accepted Peiyans application for the towers exit.

Then straight away.

Swoosh!

I scrawled letters on parchment with a feather pen.

There was no reason to delay the towers exit.

Just in time, there was a suitable rupture created.

However, the words doing two jobs at the same time didnt exist in Grandfels dictionary.

If youre going to do anything, you have to do it right.

The words I left to Peiyan were simple.

There will be no limit to the number of people on this towers exit.

If there is a mage of the spirit school who fits the purpose of the towers exit.

Regardless of rank, they may accompany you in the towers exit.

Well, be it a spirit or information.

The more, the better.

This was what we called the more the merrier.

[Thefern Fence]

[Recommended level: Lv.450]

[Collapse rate: 3.2%]

The player community became lively for the first time in a while.

Recommended level 450?? Without the demons, we can do it

Its fine as long as there are no status abnormalities

First of all, the poison isnt worth its price, damn it

Now that demon-type monsters had disappeared.

For players, the rupture was like a hunting ground when Arcana was a game.

From day to night without any restrictions. They could focus entirely on hunting.

Hey, a lot of people are here.

In that sense, among the ruptures that currently appeared.

The [Thefern Fence], which boasted the best recommended level, was bound to be crowded with players.

Star players appeared at every angle.

Among them, there was a picture that caused a strange sense of tension.

As expected, the atmosphere is unusual, isnt it, hyungnims and noonims?

The order of power changed.

From 1st to 2nd place.

From 2nd to 1st place.

The rankings of Shining and Union had changed.

Its not like theyre talking You can tell by just looking at it.

The two sides didnt make official statements.

I dont think Shining has anything to say??

Right, Jessie left

Look at Roxs eyes full of venom

But isnt it unexpected for Union???

I thought they were going to make a fuss

Shining had lost its peak.

Union, which had taken over that peak, was not excited as if that place belonged to them from the very beginning. In such a situation, these two guilds faced each other for the first time in the rupture.

As expected, whats going to explode will explode, isnt it?

It was literally the calm before the storm.

There were a lot of things to be seen for Nettube.

Nettuber players were drooling from the very beginning of the [Thefern Fence] rupture.

Yeah, how much did they regret it during the Demon Kings Castle rupture?

If only I had been a little braver !

It would have been possible to broadcast Lee Hoyeols activities independently.

But who would have thought?

They never thought that Hoyeol would clear the rupture in just 10 minutes.

Having learned from that.

Nettuber players didnt hesitate.

Okay, then. Lets rush in today!

Just one scene.

Just a few minutes more.

They would broadcast the stimulating competition between Union and Shining.

But their determination didnt last long.

W-What the hell is that?! D-Dragon? No, what could it be?!

A giant lizard blazing with flames.

Led by the high-ranking spirit Fire Drake.

An army of spirits appeared in the rupture.

And at the center of the spirit army.

Wait a minute? That person?!

There was silver hair, Hoyeol.
