Chapter 282
– 3 months later. We are going to raid the base of the Black Mage Tower.
Sophia-nim brought up the main point right away.
“The base of the Black Mage Tower… … Did you find it?”
-yes. Found it.
The blue mage lord’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Then why did you call me here… … .”
-yes. It is to seek your cooperation.
“… … .”
The blue mage lord was agonizing with his eyes wide open.
As if suddenly realizing something, I came out and stared at the red Mage Tower Lord and the green Mage Tower Lord in turn.
“… … Not everyone is surprised. Did you already know?”
“I knew.”
“It’s been a while.”
In turn, Min Ga-yeon and James answered.
I expressed my affirmation with a small nod of my head.
“I mean, I just didn’t know… … .”
Kim Kang-in’s brow furrowed slightly.
He looked like he wanted to ask why he was talking to him now.
―I hope you don’t misunderstand. It wasn’t that she didn’t say anything because she didn’t particularly trust the master of the blue mage tower.
“Then why… … .”
– The situation was not good.
Sophia-sama smiled bitterly and slowly explained the reason.
―It was because a spy from the Black Mage Tower had infiltrated the Blue Mage Tower. It was too risky to approach it prematurely. That’s why I didn’t tell you.
The blue mage lord opened his eyes wide and jumped up from his seat.
“In our mage tower… … Did you say there are spies?”
-yes.
“Are you sure?”
―That’s for sure. I swear by my name.
“I will… … medical charge… … .”
The blue mage lord sat down with a bewildered expression.
As someone who regards the people belonging to the Blue Mage Tower as family, the shock will be greater than I thought.
“Who is it?”
The expression of the blue mage tower lord was alive.
“How dare you call your colleague… The traitor who betrayed his family… … Who is it?”
It was the eyes that felt the primary hatred toward the traitor.
– You’re reacting that way too.
Sophia-nim looked at the blue mage tower with a sad expression.
Whether or not there was a spy in the blue mage tower, if you tried to contact the lord of the blue mage tower, you could.
But I didn’t have to.
What is the reason?
―The reason we did not share information with you is because of your personality. Even though you know there is a spy in the tower, you won’t be able to choose to leave it alone.
That’s why.
The blue mage lord is not a person who can pretend not to know the existence of a spy.
―In the previous situation where you had to leave the spy alone in order to wipe it out, your personality was a huge variable.
“If I had known that such an operation was being prepared, I would not have moved. I am not that young.”
The blue mage tower lord frowned with a slightly embarrassed expression.
-I know. Of course you could be patient.
“then… … .”
―But that’s literally just tolerating it. You will no longer be able to treat spies in the natural way you used to. And with a fairly high probability, the spy felt strange.
“that… … .”
The blue mage lord lowered his gaze and blurted out his words.
I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t.
―I didn’t share the information with you because I was wary of that uncertainty.
This is the reason we acted while excluding the blue mage tower lord.
―Did you understand?
“… … yes.”
The blue mage tower bowed his head with a worldly complex expression.
You seem to have a lot on your mind.
“Then why are you sharing that information with me now… … .”
-yes.
Sofia-sama’s eyes shone with a bloody light.
―Because the preparations for the spy sweeping operation are almost complete. You don’t have to be patient anymore.
The operation to wipe out the spies that I was preparing even before I left for France.
Now that operation is left to be executed.
Now, there is no problem in sharing everything with the blue mage lord.
―So, I will make a formal request once again. Will you please lend me your strength?
Sophia-nim looked straight into the eyes of the blue mage tower master with determined eyes.

“It’s a question that doesn’t even need an answer.”
The blue mage tower lord’s eyes burned with hatred and anger.
“What can I do?”
* * *
morning that day.
Returning to my dorm room, I immediately contacted Adela.
“sorry. The story is a bit long. You must have been late.”
The current time is 4:30 in the morning.
It’s time for Adela to depart for the airport. It was pretty close.
-no. In the first place, our schedule was delayed because we were watching a movie. We are more sorry. Isn’t that Miho?
-beautiful person… … .
Miho let out a helpless cry as if he had no face.
“are you okay. I fully understand. How stressful it is to stop watching.”
I understand.
I wish I could have seen how much fun it was.
“Anyway, the timing was right, so that’s okay.”
It worked because the results were good.
-miss. It’s time to leave soon.
Just then, the butler’s voice was heard over the receiver.
-yes. I’ll be out soon.
It seems now is the time to depart for the real airport.
―Well, I think I should go out now.
“I heard you. Then I’ll call you right away.”
I held the red jewel that was still hanging around my neck in my hand and used ‘Factio’.
Since it was used simply, there was no particular need for a chant.
-It’s Miho. See you when you go back to Korea.
Honey drips from Adela’s voice.
―Mii~
Miho’s voice was the same.
It seems that we became very close in two days.
―There is a magic circle on this side.
It seems that the factio I activated was connected to Miho in earnest.
―This is the formula for space magic… … ?
Adela went straight into contemplation mode.
I can’t seem to control my interest in the structure of the magic circle I’ve never seen in my life.
“Then see you in Korea. I’ll pick you up.”
-yes? Are you coming to pick me up?
Adela, who immediately woke up from her thoughts at my voice, replied in a slightly dazed voice.
“I have to go. I will go with Sunchan.”
―You don’t have to do that… … .
“You don’t have to feel uncomfortable. The three of us want to talk for a while.”
It would be difficult for me alone to relieve the upset Soon-chan.
Adela needs help.
―If that’s the reason… … . all right.
Adela’s tone of voice rose slightly. She said it was okay, but when she said she would go out to meet her, she didn’t seem to hate it.
-miss. You really have to go now.
-yes! I’m out!
Adela shouted at the butler.
and that moment.
“Mii~!”
Miho’s summons was completed.
After being summoned, Miho rushes into my arms with a cry full of charm.
– Looks like you arrived well.
“uh. Arrived well.”
The cry that melted away was incomparable to the cry I heard over the receiver earlier.
After all, Miho likes me the most. That’s how she felt.
―As expected, Miho seems to like you the best. … … It would be natural.
It seemed that Miho’s charming voice came through the receiver.
I can feel the envy in Adela’s voice.
-miss?
-yes yes! Anyway, I’m really going to go. See you later.
“okay. Come back carefully.”
The call ended with the sound of Adela running.
“Our Miho. How have you been for two days?”
I just threw the phone on the bed and hugged Miho tightly with both hands.
“Mii~!”
As if Miho liked being in my arms, he buried his head a little deeper.
* * *
After that.
Miho fell asleep in my arms.
According to Adela, she didn’t sleep very much while she was with her.
As soon as you come next to me, you fall asleep like lightning again.
Is it that you can’t rest well unless you’re near me?
You mean you trust me that much? that’s kinda nice
I gently stroked Miho’s hair.
Miho laughs as if he is talking in his sleep.
Sleeping like a real angel.
Of course, even though he is awake, he looks like an angel.
I stroked Miho’s head like that two more times.
I wanted to stroke it more, but if I did, Miho might wake up.
That doesn’t work.
I left Miho on the bed and moved to the desk.
Then, he opened the Book of Mimir, which was placed beside him.
I had some time until morning, so I thought of using my spare time to study.
‘I don’t know if reading it again will help me study… … .’
I smiled bitterly and opened Mimir’s book.
If it had been before, as soon as I opened Mimir’s book like this, Mimir would have moved to Mimir’s waiting book, but not now.
Currently, Mimir’s Book has lost all power.
Right now, the Book of Mimir is just an ordinary book.
Of course, even if it’s an ordinary book, it’s just that it doesn’t have any magical devices, and it doesn’t mean that the contents inside are ordinary either.
‘Seventh Infinity Circle. A ring of neutrality.’
In Mimir’s book, it was written about ‘how to weave the 7th Infinity Circle’.
Since the Book of Mimir was designed to disappear as soon as the page of the sixth test was passed, he must have left the information about the seventh Infinity Circle in the Book of Mimir in preparation for that time.
Indeed, it was thoroughness worthy of a master.
Taking advantage of the fact that when you open the Book of Mimir, you immediately go inside, you recorded the information about the 7th Circle here in advance.
By doing this, you won’t be able to see anything about the seventh Infinity Circle until you pass the pages of the sixth test.
‘Honestly, I don’t think it would have changed even if I had seen it beforehand.’
I understand Master’s purpose of providing only information about that realm according to my realm.
To be honest, I don’t want to see anything different just because I saw this before.
Was it really necessary to do this kind of work?
‘I still don’t know what you’re talking about… … .’
Even now, having passed the pages of the sixth test, I still don’t know what they mean, but I wonder if anything would have changed if I had read this before.
It is clear that he just dismissed it as an incomprehensible alien language 1 and left it alone for now.
I wouldn’t even try to try anything at all.
Analysis or consideration should also show some possibility, but this really has no answer at all.
I can’t imagine a future where I understand this at all.
The things written here were so esoteric, complex, and difficult.
‘As expected, I don’t know a thing.’
Bondi learning is a law that the more you learn, the more difficult it becomes.
‘I don’t think this is real… … .’
This is not it.
This really crossed the line.
When weaving the sixth infinity circle, there was at least some possibility.
There really is no hope in this.
I don’t say things like this for a while.
There is no real answer to this
Even if there is no answer, there is not too much.
‘When you think about it, it makes sense… … .’
Until now, when I was studying about a new circle, I had studied by mobilizing dozens to hundreds of reference books.
But what about now?
What about now that Mimir’s Book is gone?
One book of 572 pages is the end.
Right now, when I was compiling the sixth Infinity Circle, I read 172 books and barely understood it.
Can you understand it with only one book?
‘There is too little information.’
The loss of Mimir’s book is painful.
If Mimir’s Book had still been left, there wouldn’t have been this lack of answers.
‘Neither can this be. I need information.’
Seventh Infinity Circle.
To weave a chain of neutrality, information is needed.
Information equal to or more than what was previously obtained from the Book of Mimir.
‘Then what I have to prioritize now is… … .’
I slowly turned the book to the last page.
[If you are having trouble weaving the circle of neutrality, find the Book of Danteroa.]
Book of Danteroa.
One of the proper nouns heard through Master’s voice before, when Idred’s bookshelf ended and disappeared.
‘Let’s meet again at the Book of Mimir, the Book of Danteroa, and the grounds of Halamanium.’
[Everything you seek will be there.]
Book of Danteroa.
One of Master’s legacy.
You have to find it first.
