Chapter 191

Just as we rank warlocks and other criminals according to their degree of danger.

The Black Mage Tower also sets its own standards and ranks our mages.

That’s the dangerous person level that Shadow just talked about.

“As far as I know, I know that a special S-class dangerous person is designated only when the lord of each magic tower is selected. Did I misunderstand?”

“no. What you know is right. Usually, the special S-class is a person with a great influence in addition to the archmage of the 8th circle or higher… … . Mainly the masters of the mage tower or the heads of each famous family are at least a designated grade.”

In other words, not only magical skills, but also social status, it was said that it was designated as a special S-class dangerous person.

“I’m on that special S-class dangerous person list?”

“okay.”

“Why?”

“hmm.”

Shadow paused for a moment.

It’s kind of embarrassing to say something.

“First of all, half of it is because of me.”

“… … Did you even report that I am a dangerous person?”

“okay.”

Did you really report?

“… … I’m surprised. I thought you wouldn’t report anything about me.”

Shadow had been thinking about making this offer to me ever since he fled his former Faelian prison.

So, ‘We’ll meet again soon.’ That’s what I said.

Because of that, I thought you wouldn’t report anything about me.

The intervention of the Black Mage Tower is only a hindrance when you have to do business with me.

I thought I would have quietly asked for information about me in my chest and pretended not to know.

“To correct the misunderstanding, I didn’t inform the Mage Tower of information about you because I specifically wanted to report it.”

Shadow clicked his tongue.

“It was Hermes who provided your information to the Dark Mage. That day, another officer who shut down the system in the Huaelian prison.”

Hermes.

On that day, a hacker who extorted the system of the Huaelian Prison, completely released the security of the prison that was restraining Tkish, and completely blocked contact with the outside world.

“A guy named Hermes was also an executive.”

I expected it, but was it an executive?

“They confirmed through the CCTV that you avoided the spiritual world of Tkish and blocked my attack.”

CCTV was alive?

“… … The system must have been all down.”

“Because he is such a good hacker. They said it wasn’t that hard to keep alive a CCTV camera.”

“… … .”

My expression became serious.

If a guy named Hermes had been monitoring the lowest floor of the Huaelian Prison that day through CCTV… … .

‘It means that I took out Aes and put it on, took out Mimir’s Book from Aes, and everything in Mimir’s Book was visible.’

There is a high probability that he showed me my secret.

It’s a pretty difficult situation.

My head got complicated at once.

What should I do with this situation?

“Don’t worry, I didn’t overhear a conversation between the two of us. At the time, there was only one CCTV that Hermes was watching. In addition, it was located quite far away. It didn’t even reach the voice.”

Is there only one CCTV?

“How was the composition of the CCTV?”

At the time of the incident, the battle centered on Shadow.

That said, there is a high probability that Hermes chose the CCTV that could be seen centered on Shadow and watched the situation through it.

‘And my location was far from where Shadow was standing.’

As much as he was in a position protected by the blue mage lord, he was located at a considerable distance from Shadow.

In other words, there is a high probability that my location was not captured by the CCTV that Hermes was watching.

“Your prediction is correct. Your appearance was not captured on the CCTV that Hermes was watching.”

bingo.

My prediction was correct.

‘Then it means that I didn’t see myself taking out Aes or entering Mimir’s book.’

I internally let out a sigh of relief.

“But I didn’t take a picture of myself. How do you know I avoided T’Kish’s spiritual realm and erased your attack?”

Along with reassurance, new questions arose.

“Even if I haven’t seen you, I’ve seen mine. It wouldn’t have been that difficult to get a sense of the overall situation.”

“ah.”

Hermes was watching Shadow through the CCTV.

Even if he couldn’t see me due to the composition, he confirmed the figure of Shadow confronting someone.

From that appearance, he must have realized that someone had avoided the spiritual world.

‘If you think about the composition of the camera, Shadow’s reaction, and expression, you can confirm that Shadow’s attack was blocked.’

In other words, even if I couldn’t see myself, there was no problem in grasping the situation.

“But how did you know it was me?”

But all we can know is the circumstances.

It was unknown to Hermes who had escaped the spiritual world.

“At the time, I and the Blue Mage Tower were in a position not to be filmed by CCTV. It was two like this. In that situation, isn’t it normal to think that the blue mage tower lord is left?”

At that time, the only ones outside the CCTV were me and the blue mage lord.

How could I be sure that I stayed in that situation?

“I told you that the opponent at that time was you, not the blue mage tower lord.”

“… … you said?”

“okay. I would have said it earlier. I am half responsible for your designation as a special S-class dangerous person.”

Looking at Shadow’s expression as he calmly replied, I accelerated my thoughts.

I wondered why Shadow had revealed my name.

The answer came quickly.

“Considering your reaction at that time, it must have been unreasonable to say that the blue mage tower lord remained.”

“okay. The problem was that we were so embarrassed that the attack was blocked.”

If the opponent was the blue mage tower lord, he wouldn’t have been so flustered that the attack was blocked.

“It was also a problem that we managed to escape without receiving any counterattack.”

“… … If it were the blue mage tower lord, there would be no way he would have sent it back quietly.”

“So I brought up your name. If I had brought up the name of the owner of the Blue Mage Tower there, I would have been suspected.”

understood.

All the circumstances were proving that it was not the blue mage lord’s remains, but mine.

Shadow’s judgment was reasonable.

“… … Is that why I am designated as a special S-class dangerous person?”

“okay. Because he is an irregular who avoided Tkish’s spiritual world, and at the same time he is an irregular who blocked my attack.”

“… … Since it is something unknown, it means that the risk level is set higher. understand.”

It seems that the country would have made the same decision.

The scariest thing in war is an unknown enemy who doesn’t know what to do than a strong general.

“What will happen if you are designated as a special S-class?”

“It depends on the situation, but in your current situation… … An assassination squad will surely be dispatched. And constantly.”

“Is that because my skills are inferior to other special S-rankers?”

“okay. Other special S-classes are means of self-defense… … . You have enough power to protect yourself, but you are not.”

In order to deal with the magicians who have risen to the 8th circle, at least an executive level must be mobilized.

but what about me

As a 6th Circle wizard to be evaluated by the world, I am an existence that can be sufficiently eliminated even as a semi-executive level, let alone an executive level.

As Shadow said, it wouldn’t be strange if assassins were dispatched from time to time.

“… … I understand the situation. I’ll have to pay attention to my personal safety for a while. Thank you for good information.”

It was a piece of information that I needed right now.

I sincerely thanked you.

‘This is a leap, and I think it’s better to postpone the trip to Mt. Baekdu.’

If the Black Mage Tower had the intention of eliminating me in earnest, it would be right for them not to leave Seoul.

No matter how urgent my leap is, it’s not more precious than my life.

“Then I would like some other information, too.”

Information has just been acquired. The actual information gathering begins now.

“hmm. other info. what would be good Can you tell me about the base of the Black Mage Tower? Or information about members of the organization. Or I could give you information about spies lurking around the world.”

Shadow smiled and looked at me.

“Under the terms of the deal, I will provide only one of these three pieces of information first. what do you want?”

He said that those three things are the core information that Shadow possesses.

The information about my personal life I just mentioned, and one of those three pieces of information.

Is that half of the information you have?

“… … You are very reasonable.”

It was a certain condition that had no room for refutation.

“It doesn’t matter if you tell me all three pieces of information. However, before that, you will have to remove my shadow.”

“… … I will decline that.”

“hmm. First of all, check whether my information is true or not. It’s thorough, too.”

In fact, it’s just that Miho’s strength is still lacking, so there’s no way to get rid of the ‘Umbra Shadow’ nestled in Shadow’s body.

I don’t need to tell you.

It’s only my loss if I have to tell you.

“good. Then what information do you want?”

“… … .”

Which of the three pieces of information would be most helpful?

‘The base of the Black Mage Tower.’

‘Information on members inside the Black Mage Tower.’

‘Information on the spies belonging to the Black Mage Tower located in each country.’

Which of the three pieces of information is most valuable to me now?

The answer came quickly.

“… … Let’s do it with information about the spies.”

In warfare, the most dangerous enemy is not the enemy outside, but the enemy within.

Once you deal with it first, you have to deal with the enemies inside first.

“Did you also choose information about spies?”

Shadow smiled, as if he knew I would take this information.

“A great choice.”

* * *

‘Since data is data, it would be better to properly document it and hand it over rather than verbally explaining it.’

‘As much as a deal is a deal, I’ll gather information about spies infiltrating areas I wasn’t paying attention to.’

‘However, since I have to avoid the eyes of the magic tower, it will take some time.’

‘I think it will take about 4 days.’

‘Then, I’ll see you at this spot again then.’

Shadow left those words and disappeared.

As if the sun had risen in the morning and the darkness had lifted, it completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.

‘Going all the way to China in such a short amount of time… … .’

After Shadow disappeared, I asked Miho to ask. At that moment, he moved all the way to China.

Shadow of Umbra.

It couldn’t have been a really great ability.

Well, as much as it is a relic of an evil god, the penalty is strong, though.

‘After getting it… … Can I forge it with mythic magic?’

The shadow of Umbra was already said to be a relic that Master once failed to create with mythic magic.

Can I forge such a relic as a medium?

To be honest, I don’t have one.

Because Master failed, the chances of me succeeding are not very high.

‘What on earth did Mimir see and say that if it were me, I could do it?’

Mimir tends to overestimate me too.

With that thought in mind, I walked toward the dormitory.

‘No, rather than that, the day after tomorrow. What should I do to Mt. Baekdu?’

To be honest, I was thinking of canceling the trip to Mt.

However, now I have changed my mind again.

‘ah. And about the assassin, you don’t have to worry about it for a while. First of all, everyone is on a mission, so there is no suitable manpower to be assigned to you.’

‘If there is a member who has returned from completing the mission in advance and shows signs of moving to eliminate you, I will give you a tip. It’s a service.’

In addition to the fact that the Assassination Squad was not ready yet, he even said that Shadow would directly tip him off in the unlikely event that he would change his mind.

‘If I go to Mt. Baekdu, I really don’t think there’s any chance other than now.’

My troubles got deeper and deeper.

I’m trudging along the way like that.

“… … Are you Miho?”

Suddenly, Miho pricked up his ears.

In that state, he stared blankly in one direction, then left my arms and stood on the ground.

Then, toddling around, she approached the woman sitting on the bench and jumped up onto her knees.

“Hello little boy. where are you from… … . Five tails?”

An attractive woman with long blonde hair down to her waist.

“… … Adela?”

“oh.”

Adela put her hand on Miho’s head and looked at me.

“… … hello?”

I stared blankly at Adela, who greeted me with a strange expression.

No, it would be more accurate to say that he was looking not at Adela, but at Miho, who was sitting on Adela’s lap.

‘Is Miho being so friendly to anyone other than me?’

Mimir and Asran.

A arrogant Shinsu, a nine-tailed fox who does not follow anyone except me and Master.

Miho was sitting on Adela’s lap and yawning.
