Crystal Hall.
Hoyeol left the Crystal Hall and left the connector behind.
Nevertheless, the impact of the shock didnt go away easily.
The players whispered.
Hes going to share this incredible opportunity?
He didnt even try it first!
Damn it, what the hell was I thinking
They realized it once again.
Hoyeols pride was so heavy that they couldnt easily say they were chasing after it.
As heavy as it was, it also held a lot of meaning.
Some players looked around.
I cant believe I can return to the Arcana Continent.
Mother, Father
I just want to make sure that theyre safe.
Hoyeol certainly said so.
No one can weigh that purpose.
Yes.
Who would dare evaluate whether their circumstance was heavy or light?
Even if they couldnt go back to their previous live now that they had entered the tower.
For them, the Arcana Continent was their hometown, and in their hometown, they had their blood relatives.
Senior of healing magic, Belliere, smiled.
That means he wont overlook anything.
Belliere knew.
Chief Lee Hoyeol didnt just look at the tower exits application. Rejected applications always come back with reasonable reasons and points of improvement.
Was it just for the tower exit application?
He did the same for the pre-verification of the regular academic conference.
Including Klees work on how to grow bi-herbs.
Even the research of inexperienced skilled mages.
Hoyeol thought of the research as if it were his own.
But, this burden is heavier than that. Youre going to carry it alone this time too.
She wanted him to share it with her, but
Belliere was not confident.
It couldnt be compared to the tower exit and the pre-verification.
The responsibility that followed was heavy.
Sir Hoyeol
That was also the reason Marcelo could hardly raise his head.
The elder mage, Yugwid, spoke to Marcelo.
Isnt that great, Chief Marcelo? Honestly, if I were Chief Lee, Id hide the fact that I got my hands on something like that for a while.
Youre honest, Elder Yugwid.
Hoho. Now hes just provoking us, isnt he?
But what about Hoyeol?
Not only did he make that provocation.
He revealed it to the Mage Tower, no, the world.
He turned the arrow towards himself as if he had been waiting for this opportunity.
I cant fathom the size of his capability.
Same here.
Meow.
?
A cat with bristled fur.
The Tower Master interrupted between the two and meowed.
The Tower Master finally finished weighing things in his head.
In every way, hes better suited to the Tower Master position than I am.
It was a decision that would have shocked the person concerned if he found out.
By the way
Marcelo looked at Crystal Hall, the exit, where Hoyeol had left.
He clearly said he didnt have time.
Where did Sir Hoyeol headed in such a hurry?
The fact that he left through that door meant that he was still in the Mage Tower.
Marcelo rose from his seat.
I dont think its going to work.
Hoyeol and Marcelo were pursuing joint research on oddity in order to return to the Arcana Continent.
However, if what Hoyeol said was true, there was no need to conduct further research.
I am not sure if I have the right to know.
The inevitable nature of a mage.
He felt like his despondent feelings would calm down only if he talked to Hoyeol.
The mages, led by Marcelo, left the Crystal Hall with a buzz.
Meanwhile, there were two people who stayed until the end.
They were Bensch and Banglet.
As expected, Chief Lee Hoyeol didnt abandon me!
He didnt mean that the towers exit was insignificant, but what about if you compare it with going back to the Arcana Continent? Of course, going back to the Arcana Continent was a much more valuable opportunity!
My rejection until now was in preparation for today!
Banglets eyes scanned Bensch, who was smug.
Where on earth does that confidence come from?
Observing other people was a daily occurrence to Banglet, who was a commoner and rose to the top position at the Mage Tower. Thanks to that, he immediately noticed what Hoyeol meant when he said that he would bear it.
I dont think the process will be any different from the tower exits examination
Senior Bensch couldnt even get out of the tower.
There was no way he could enter the Arkana Continent
The cruel truth filled his jaw.
Banglet smiled awkwardly.
Hmm, haha. Wait for me, little brother. Hyung is coming.
Right, he would realize it soon even if Banglet didnt tell him.
For now, I want you to be happy to your hearts content.
Senior Bensch.

End of roundtable.
After leaving Crystal Hall, the destination I headed to was Garnet Hall.
There was only one reason I stopped by at Garnet Hall.
I have to go to the Arcana Continent.
So I had to borrow a magic tool.
I could already hear another lecture from Grandfel.
I sneaked a glance at the level.
[Level: 680]
It was not a bad reward for getting stabbed in the back by Raymond Sean. It should have been easier to raise after entering the 600 level.
Flutter
Now, this jacket that fluttered every time I walked.
There were only 20 levels left to wear it properly.
That alone was one of the important reasons to level up.
Having a higher level also helps expand your options.
Memories of visiting Garnet Hall through being a parachute in the past come back to me.
At that time, I was around level 100 at most.
Because of that, the magic tools of the Mage Tower felt like an unreachable dream.
Now I could choose as much as I liked.
Ah, Chief Lee Hoyeol
The skilled mage who was guarding Garnet Hall freaked out.
A roundtable meeting was assembled all of a sudden.
She was probably wondering what was going on in Garnet Hall.
I said indifferently.
The roundtable is over.
Ah, I see! But whats your business in Garnet Hall?
I would like to rent a magic tool with my authority of the chief.
Ah, I see! Is there a magic tool youre looking for?
In fact, basically, mages of the Mage Tower didnt rely on magic tools.
Well, that was the nature of mages who were born with the talent to enter the Mage Tower.
They were beings who constantly pursued and improved themselves, be it for research, truth, or anything else.
Therefore, magic tools that simply amplify the power of manifestation were not used except for special purposes.
So.
I need magic tools related to manifestation power.
!
She was probably surprised because of my words.
I was basically saying I had a special purpose.
Of course, there was no way a skilled mage would inquire about my purpose.
T-Then, this way
I followed her guide and entered Garnet Hall.
Oho.
Some of the magic tools I had seen during my parachute days caught my attention.
How aggrieved I had felt to be a low level.
I even remembered the name clearly.
Like that necklace, it was [Frozen Knowledge], wasnt it?
[Frozen Knowledge]
[Grade: Unique]
[Restriction: Lv.550]
[Effect: When using ice magic, 50% of the mana is restored]
[Description: This is a keepsake of a great ice mage. The magical knowledge he achieved during his lifetime is frozen and preserved in the necklace.]
Even looking at it again, it was a magic tool with an effect that any ice mage would inevitably covet.
50% recovery of the mana consumed.
To put it bluntly, imagine that this effect depended on the magic tool related to pure magic.
Wouldnt it be epic grade?
I didnt know at the time when my knowledge was limited, but I knew now.
The reason why items with this effect were unique grades and didnt have a very high-level limit. It was because ice magic was one of the non-mainstream magic.
Actually, theres nothing special about its strength.
Although its destructive power in special situations was outstanding, its biggest drawback was that it had obvious weaknesses. Above all, it had a fatal correlation with fire magic, one of the mainstream magic.
I cant believe he rose to the position of elder mage with that ice magic.
Looking back, you were a great person, Senios.
And hadnt I been recognized by that Senios?
I was not the same person I used to be when I was a parachute and only looked great on the surface.
After looking around as much as I could, I had only ended up renting one [Hexagram Brooch].
That Lee Hoyeol was no more.
I confidently held [Frozen Knowledge] in my hands.
!
Was I too confident in picking it up?
The skilled mages pupils twitched.
But it was too early to be surprised.
I said shamelessly.
Next, Ill choose the magic tool to rent.
Not only I had to enter the Arcana Continent.
I had to face the dying old dragon, Eunaxus.
Maybe I would end up in a situation where I might have to face the enemy who drove the old dragon to death. How could I finish wrapping up all my preparation with just one magic tool?
Its going to sway around.
In fact, even now.
The necklace, brooch, and fluttering jacket were too flashy.
Still, the blessing in disguise was that there were no eyes on the Arcana Continent. So, lets endure the burdensomely flashy outfits for a little while, Hoyeol.
Its not bad.
Ill lend it to you.
I accept.
For a while, only my voice echoed in Garnet Hall
.
.
.
The actual person in charge of Garnet Hall was the Senior Mage of Enchantment, Kiko Armin.
Everything that happened in Garnet Hall was relayed to her.
What happened today was no exception.
What did you say, Laran?
Laran, the skilled mage who guarded Garnet Hall.
She repeated her words carefully.
As clear as possible.
Chief Lee Hoyeol borrowed a total of twelve magic tools?
12.
It was definitely a lot, but she wasnt surprised by the quantity.
Above all, the chief mage had the authority to freely borrow magic tools.
However, the problem was the type of tool he rented.
Kiko pulled out her hair and examined the parchment.
Frozen Knowledge, Heart of Seahorse, Dice of Fate
All twelve magic tools.
They were all battle magic tools that amplified the power of manifestation.
Kiko then read the next line.
Only then did she notice.
The reason Laran looked so distraught.
Senior Mage Kiko!
Its not good to make hasty guesses, Laran.
Thats true, but!
Unlike other magic tools, the rental period for battle magic tools had to be specified. Because the moment a mage of the Mage Tower wielded a magic tool for battle, no one could guarantee what the outcome would be.
Hoyeol was no exception to the rules of the Mage Tower.
Laran continued, crying.
The rental period was written by Chief Lee Hoyeol!!
Even if she didnt say that, Kiko was reading it.
Kiko focused again and looked at the parchment.
It was written calmly in Hoyeols handwriting.
Rental period: until the moment of death.
.
.
.
No, this isnt wrong, but.
Do you have to write it down so straightforwardly?
Just until I return from the Arcana Continent.
Would you mind if I wrote it kindly like that?
Instead, you wrote until the moment of death!
The reason I wrote the rental period like that was simple.
For me, I had the title [The Last Adventurer].
Lets check the reliable effect once again.
[The Last Adventurer: You will not die on the Arcana continent. Upon death, you return to reality immediately and cannot access the Arcana continent for a certain period of time. Cooldown: 24 hours]
To put it simply, it was Grandfels style way of speaking.
It was a promise to never bow or bend.
Until the moment of death.
On the hellish continent of Arcana.
Of course, the skilled mage who confirmed it was astonished.
I would use the magic tools to the fullest until I died.
She must have thought I was so shameless!
If I am going to get scolded for being greedy, might as well go all out and be greedy for real.
Because of this pure integrity.
I wasnt even able to be properly greedy. I couldnt believe I would be treated like a shameless person who borrowed twelve magic tools from the Mage Tower until death.
Its so unfair. really.
But to clear up the misunderstandings.
I had to tell a lot of things.
Tea time was the only thing that soothed my resentment.
Hmm.
So dont be displeased just because its not green tea, Grandfel.
Since ancient times, what is bitter in your mouth is good for your body.
Above all.
What I needed right now wasnt the caffeine of green tea, but the bi-herb doping.
[Your vitality regeneration increases slightly for 6 hours.]
[Your mana regeneration increases slightly for 2 hours.]
[Your stamina regeneration increases slightly for 12 hours.]
Was it because it was taken care of by the Elf Elsidore?
If not, was it because the bi-herb was organic?
The effect was not bad.
Effects such as slight increases accumulate and make a big difference.
Then, lets get ready to move on.
Clink
I put down the teacup and got up.
What did it feel like when the odd portal to Arcana was opened?
I needed to have a space that could withstand the enormous magical energy generated during the manifestation process. The space suitable for that purpose was the top floor of the Mage Tower.
I opened the door wide to head to the top floor
My goodness!
What are you all doing in front of my office door?
Whats with those serious expressions?
Wait a minute, you didnt hear my complaints about green tea, right?!
