The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 493

Episode 493 A truly disruptive

AAU.

Branch heads and executives from all over the world visit the capital of the Republic of Korea.

Headed to Seoul.

When the Magic Tower appeared in Seoul, I thought it was just a coincidence.

“That’s it…”

In the limousine heading to the Magic Tower.

Jim Joshua, United States Branch Chief.

He muttered seriously.

“Should I learn Feng Shui right now?”

Reality and the Arcana Continent were permanently connected. Collapse of incomplete prototype cracks. This was thanks to the field formed by the self-destruction of Yugweed, a fused intelligence, connecting the two worlds like a bridge.

“well. Personally, I think it’s a superstition.”

“To be serious.”

“Were you kidding? “I’m sorry. There is so much information coming out.”

Katrina, who was riding with Joshua, did not have the spirit to focus on things like feng shui. What she was focusing on was deducing the current situation from limited information.

The screen on the tablet switches quickly.

“As expected, the other half of the fusion intelligences appeared on the Arcana continent. It is said that the field was formed by self-destruction, just like in reality. Still, wasn’t it like the last gift left by an elder wizard who was a member of the Magic Tower?”

“Katrina, please don’t say anything too serious.”

“…yes?”

Katrina looked at the back seat at Joshua’s harsh words.

Only then did I see it.

There was deep fatigue on the boss’s face.

“Today we went through a lot of ups and downs.”

“…!”

From bottom to heaven and back to bottom again…

literally.

It was a day where my emotions fluctuated like I was on a roller coaster.

Joshua clenched his trembling fist.

“Actually, I still can’t believe it. It feels like I’m still dreaming that General Manager Yusra, who died on the Arcana Continent, came back alive. But…”

An unbelievable scenery begins to appear outside the window.

“This comes as a bonus.”

Seoul’s building forest.

According to the settings of the Arcana Continent biography.

Spirits that could not be seen by ordinary people came in.

The spirit of the wind, the spirit of the forest, the spirit of water…

If it was a sight that only you could see, Joshua, you have finally gone crazy. He may have visited a psychiatrist while lamenting his situation.

But the anchor’s voice came from Katrina’s tablet.

-It is an unbelievable sight even when you see it. The spirits that appeared on the Arcana Continent are participating in the restoration of damage in Seoul. A correspondent who is immediately on the scene…

That’s right.

In the eyes of others too.

Even on camera lenses.

The spirits were vividly reflected.

Katrina added some information about it.

“The players said that the ‘Age of Purity’ had opened on the Arcana continent. “It may be that an era has opened that cannot be explained by the Arcana Continent’s previous common sense.”

Joshua nodded.

“In some ways, this must be a true cataclysm.”

Not only was there a road permanently connecting reality and the Arcana Continent, but the Arcana Continent’s buffs were also effective in Seoul as if they had become one…

Joshua muttered.

“It’s freakishly amazing.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a smile appeared at the corner of Joshua’s mouth.

Because the unrealistic scenery of Seoul with spirits running around is so beautiful?

Rather than that reason, it was because of the nervous excitement.

The general manager who brought about this upheaval.

It was because of the expectation of being able to reunite with Ho-yeol.

Soon, Joshua and his group entered the magic tower.

Okay.

Raise your head once in front of him.

“It clearly collapsed miserably.”

No matter how I look at it, it seems to be fine.

It took me a while to realize the greatness of reversal magic. Joshua headed to the Magic Tower Crystal Hall. It took just a moment to get through the flash barrage of reporters flocking to the lobby of Magic Tower.

The moment the door to the Crystal Hall opened, Joshua could not help but be shocked. Because there was a scenery before my eyes that was even more unbelievable than a forest of buildings with spirits running around.

Katrina barely opened her mouth.

“…Isn’t this the testing room, boss?”

.

.

.

I answered.

“no.”

“What a surprise…?!”

“Director Cho!”

Joshua and his AAU subordinates, I guess.

“I’m truly glad you’re safe…!”

I stared into Joshua’s eyes, which looked like they were about to shed tears at any moment. I just want to ignore this. Avoiding someone’s gaze is something that cannot be found in the Granfell dictionary.

‘…I don’t know how many times this has happened.’

I only noticed it after the Fusion Intelligence Raid was completely over.

The moment I threw away my life on the Arcana Continent.

The fact that it was captured in reality beyond the prototype crack…!

‘I can fully understand.’

[The Last Adventurer] Effect or anything.

Because it’s true that I died. The resurrection could not be dismissed as just a rumor. But from then on, even if it was wrong, rumors were spread that were very wrong, right?

Headlines I glanced at during Kii’s quest.

-Lee Ho-yeol wrote the miracle of resurrection!

-The Spirit King bows his head! The appearance of the Spirit Emperor?!

– Subdue a monster with words? A rant that goes beyond words!

…our reporters. Why do you think I am taking after someone who has the ability to put things together in a grandiose and plausible way? Especially the rant at the end, what is that?

‘It’s burdensome enough with Homen.’

He took the character for ‘Ho (?)’ from ‘Ho-yeol’ and created a new word.

‘If only there had been no history of reversal magic or building magic…’

I would have been able to say something properly. The sins I have committed are too great to criticize the pouring rumors. In that sense, I had no choice but to continue speaking.

“From now on, everything you see is the truth.”

Why did it sound like a testing room that only existed when Arcana was just a game? I guessed the reason.

At this moment, there was a gathering of beings in the Crystal Hall who could not be gathered in one place according to the common sense of Arcana Continent history.

The seat of the tower owner.

Suddenly, Marcelo, who had been sitting, stands up.

He must have noticed my appearance.

As usual, I politely bow.

‘…What is this between us?’

But I didn’t even have time to repay him.

Marcelo must have recognized my presence through his actions.

The murmur subsides.

Those who follow Marcelo’s footsteps begin to stand up.

chuck.

Senior wizards, of course.

chuck.

Great Union.

chuck.

Argentress and the elves he leads.

chuck.

Spirit kings who imitate human form.

…chuck.

Even though I was mesmerized by the unbelievable sight.

Not to be left out were the AAU branch leaders who quickly stood up from their seats.

I thought about that burdensome greeting.

‘…If only there weren’t two people next to me.’

I really must have sighed because I couldn’t bear it anymore.

‘Well, we can all gather at the Magic Tower. No, of course.’

Reality and the Arcana Continent were connected.

It is not a temporary portal being opened, but a permanent one through the formation of a new field. Because this is an unprecedented situation. It would have been necessary to understand the situation for both reality and the Arcana Continent.

‘Because I’m the only one who can answer the question.’

I understand that much, but…

‘There’s no need for everyone to stand up?’

But the center of the world is yourself.

It is because you think that the path you take is the center.

Because it was our Granfell.

Again.

I left behind Joshua and his friends who didn’t know where to stay by my side. I went to the Crystal Hall pulpit. Soon, I went up to the podium and just enjoyed the attention and attention pouring in.

Is it thanks to you?

‘The facial expressions are a mixture of various emotions.’

The crowd could feel the emotion.

anticipation.

And a bigger mess than that.

‘In my heart…’

I just wanted to say good things out of my mouth.

But that can’t happen.

As I said, this is the reality we face.

‘To use an analogy….’

The world tree.

Like the tree of good and evil from the mother of all things.

Because it is the beginning of a catastrophe that carries both hope and danger.

I gathered those thoughts and spoke them out in a Granfell-style speech.

“At this moment, a new path has opened for us. Since this is a path no one has ever taken, it would be natural for there to be no set direction. However, the traces we leave behind will soon become a guidepost for future generations.”

Isn’t this a way of speaking that doesn’t take the audience’s perspective into consideration?

I am Lee Ho-yeol.

As a representative of small citizens.

I feel like I would feel a lot of pressure just hearing these words.

But fortunately.

‘Because the people gathered here are not like me.’

There seemed to be no one who had the same thoughts as me, Lee Ho-yeol. That’s right, all of these people have risked their lives just now to confront reality and the fusion intelligence that appeared on the Arcana Continent.

I continue speaking because I know that fact.

“I have no intention of wasting the foundation that Yugweed sowed.”

Those who leave have nothing to say.

Even though I didn’t really know what Yugweed meant, I said it convincingly. However, I think that any yugweed I have seen would have formed a field with that intention in mind.

-“Then please take good care of the magic tower, Chief Lee.”

Just like they trusted us and left the magic tower.

Yugweed trusts us again this time.

I think it was sown on its own as a foundation.

“I have something to tell you about him…!”

“Wait a minute, here’s the recording.”

“So what happened on the Arcana Continent at that time?”

yet.

Various opinions were exchanged in Crystal Hall. Because the information we know and what we assume will be different. In order to reach a conclusion, an active exchange of opinions will be necessary.

In that sense, an unavoidable question was now asked to me.

As expected, it was the spirits who asked the question.

Among them, it was Phoenix, the Spirit King of Flame.

“Blessed One.”

Blesser The crowd was buzzing at the word.

“…Blesser? “What does it mean?”

“Is this your newly acquired title?”

“Well, Chief Lee has been blessed in many ways.”

really.

Why do you insist on calling me that name when you clearly know my name?

Even though I was inwardly resentful, I allowed Phoenix to talk behind my back.

Then the expected question came back.

“I am grateful that you are safe and well, but please forgive me for not being able to suppress the questions that are rising. “I clearly felt that your sacrifice was reflected in this worthless body…”

Phoenix trailed off appropriately.

It was enough to focus the audience.

First of all, some people may be surprised by the harsh tone of voice.

‘Still, he is a spirit king in name and identity.’

This is what Phoenix shows in front of me.

As if the rumors spread around the world were true.

Because he was treating me like some kind of spirit emperor.

But what makes the audience even more shocked than that.

sacrifice.

I guess they’re asking if I really died like the rumor started in AAU. There was even some evidence. From AAU’s filming records to the spirit kings’ momentum that has become stronger than before.

This is it.

‘I don’t think I can explain it in a plausible way.’

In fact, it is our Grandfell who does not hide anything even if I try to hide it. Since Phoenix asked a question in a formal manner, he had no choice but to answer in a formal manner.

My lips are moving.

“Phoenix, you are right.”

I was struck by the doubtful gazes.

“I have already experienced death.”

Very well.

“Enough to get used to death.”

“…!!!”

*

Today Arcana production team.

“It’s like a dream. It’s like a dream. Jongjin!”

Producer Hyun Yong-seok looked around, unable to believe the current scene. Still, I couldn’t believe it and even pinched my cheek. Is this really the Seoul that was devastated just a few hours ago?

Jongjin Yoon keeps changing the camera angle.

“Hey, senior. Look over there. Those spirits are messing around over there! No, the wizards were only looking at something so cute for themselves, right? “It’s so cruel it’s ridiculous.”

The corners of the mouth that never seem to come down.

It was an outside job with Hyun Yong-seok, who would normally have been embarrassed.

Jongjin Yoon was not tired at all.

He moved the camera around and even joked.

“How did the buff affect us too?”

“Check the camera film while you’re at it…” Hyun

Yong-seok was trying to nag like usual.

He paused.

Because big names started pouring out of the Magic Tower.

“What are you doing? Everyone move!!”

They must have talked about the current situation inside the Magic Tower.

What was discussed at the meeting?

It was the first opportunity to convey it to the world.

“Run toward the Great Coalition!”

As Korea’s leading media and producer, it was also a scoop that should not be missed.

Has Hyun Yong-seok’s earnest will reached the players? If not, is it because of Nam Tae-min, a gentle barbarian who is unusual for his class?

“Player Nam Taemin, may I ask you a question?”

The Today Arcana team has a scoop that no one expected.

It was able to be broadcast live.

Because of that, someone’s hair turned completely white.

…Tuk.

The smartphone falls out of my helpless grasp.

Damn.

The screen was broken on the asphalt floor. But I didn’t pay attention to it. At this moment, the thing that broke down more seriously than the smartphone was the sincerity that I was trying so hard to ignore.

“…I am now at my limit just watching.”

He died and came back to life.

Whether it is the miracle of resurrection.

Anything…!

No words reached my eyes or ears.

Lee Ye-rim’s eyes became red.

“Hoyeol, are you really okay…?”
