I’m the only magic tower owner episode 102
I continued the conversation with a serious face.
“This might be your last chance. I’m not going to ask you two to cooperate. You just have to stand on the same battlefield and tolerate conflict with each other.”
“I’m sorry, Hunter Kim Yu-shin. We are in a situation where we are fighting over the ball. In the end, when the decisive moment comes, we have no choice but to be at odds…”
It was then.
“The drink you ordered has arrived!”
The cafe staff brought the coffee and drinks we ordered. The bloody atmosphere, which seemed as if a stabbing had occurred at any moment, changed strangely.
The Holy Knights quickly picked up the drinks they ordered one by one. Among them, it was cute to see a young-looking female paladin sucking on her drink with a happy expression.
“Oh! Here’s what I ordered!”
Marcello also brought a blueberry yogurt flatccino and was stirring it with a straw. Menes watched from next to her, pouting her lips.
“Oh, I’m sorry. The Holy Knights came quickly and ordered first. Pharaoh, would you like to eat too?”
She reluctantly picked up the menu again.
“Hmm, you’re not good at serving young people! Quickly, bring this ‘Iced Peach Peach Blossom Latte’!”
I took the menu Menes threw and handed it to the gravediggers.
“It’s really hot, right? Everyone, please order what you want to eat.”
“…….”
They hesitantly accepted the menu. However, although I may have hesitated at first, I was captivated by the pictures of the colorful drinks.
Work is work and thoughts are thoughts, but isn’t it all about making a living?
I spoke towards the first floor.
“Boss! Please take one more order from here!”
* * *
“therefore.”
Menes, who had been looking regretfully at the empty glass cup, raised his head.
“We will carry out a common operation, but the death of Operation Armin Walter will be officially announced as an achievement of the ‘Holy Knights’, and Armin Walter’s new recruit will be held by the grave keeper?”
“Yes, that is my offer.”
The Vatican wants bloody revenge on the murderer who brutally killed his brothers.
What they need is a practical achievement that will calm the noisy public opinion at once. It is an achievement in itself that the Holy Knights overtook the gravedigger and judged Armin Walter.
And the gravedigger wanted to recruit him for research on ‘soul transfer’ rather than performance.
“but……”
“Yes, you don’t have to say it. I’m sure we both have regrets.”
The Holy Knights will want to bring Armin Walter to the Vatican and execute him, and the gravediggers will also want to have the record of killing Armin Walter.
“But these are the minimum terms of agreement. We’ve been too greedy so far, and it hasn’t worked out. This time, we’re going to give up what we have to give to each other.”
The two were silent for a moment, as if they were in trouble.
“Suppose we cooperate. How are we going to find Armin Walter?”
“I know who Armin Walter’s next ‘vessel’ is.”
When the term ‘vessel’ was even mentioned, the two people’s expressions turned astonished.
“That’s all I’m telling you. Would you like to cooperate with me? Let me tell you one more thing: this opportunity in Korea may be our last chance to apprehend this guy.”
It was a piece of cake to take advantage of the two leaders’ positions on the edge of a cliff and force them to make a deal. In the end, the two people exchanged more detailed information about my proposal.
The additional condition of the Holy Knights is, ‘Under any circumstances, the gravedigger must accept that he lost the battle for Walther and refrain from any media intervention.’ The gravedigger’s condition was ‘Do not kill Armin Walter, but capture him alive.’
“But Hunter Kim Yushin.”
Marcello’s smiling face turned towards me.
“You, the information provider, just stand from afar and lead the negotiations. Don’t you want anything?”
“……Haha! Thank you for speaking up first. Well, it’s nothing special, but if this is successful, there’s something I’d like to personally ask of you two.”
Marcello nodded as if he knew that would happen, and Menes clenched his chin with a disapproving expression.
“Just give it a try and see.”
“Someday, when the faction I am in charge of wants to join the ‘World Guild,’ I hope that the Holy Knights and the Gravekeeper will vote in agreement.”
“……what?”
The expression of astonishment that could not be hidden was revealed on the faces of everyone present.
“Fuuuu! Puhahahaha!”
Menes held his stomach and laughed.
“…This is. Um, I don’t know what to say.”
Marcello seemed speechless.
“Hunter Yushin Kim. I don’t think you’re a kid who doesn’t know anything about the world.”
“sure.”
“May I ask what guild you lead?”
“Nothing. Not yet.”
The conditions for belonging to a world guild are quite strict. If you simply look at power, size, and capital power, it is normal for a large number of the largest hunter guilds in the United States to belong.
However, currently the United States has not produced a single global guild.
There is one thing you need to become a world guild.
“So what do you have?”
It is the ‘power’ of this world.
Holy Knights and Gravediggers. Both forces occupy the ‘Ruins of Another World’ and have special powers that only they can use.
“I don’t have anything to tell you yet.”
I responded calmly. My only suggestion is for help when joining a world guild. There is absolutely no need to reveal what hand I have right now.
“It’s absurd! That’s why it’s funny!”
Meneth laughed.
“You want to stand on the same lines as us? Yes, that’s good! If you truly meet the standards of the world guild, I, Pharaoh Menes and the gravediggers, will unconditionally support your joining the world guild!”
Marcello, who had been thinking for quite some time, eventually smiled strangely and placed his hand on his chest.

“I, Arch Bishop Marcello, and the Holy Knights will also agree to join the world guild of the force led by Hunter Yushin Kim.”
done.
done!
I tried to control my facial expressions as much as possible.
“Now, future recruit. But you know that all of this is only possible after we catch Armin Walter, right?”
“Of course. I’ll tell you the specifics now.”
In addition to the information I knew, I also told a realistic story about what I experienced while fighting Armin Walter.
And he also talked about Han Yun-jeong.
For this operation, the cooperation of the two is essential.
Every time I brought up the story, both people’s eyes rolled frantically.
“……So the next vessel that Walter so desperately wants is none other than Han Yun-jeong, the core of this ‘Classic Gate’ disaster.”
“hmm.”
Screams came from everywhere.
“Walter called her the ‘core of disaster,’ and also called her a ‘vessel.’ And Han Yun-jeong also knew that she was the ‘boss’ of this disaster.”
I nodded and continued.
“If she shows up, Walter will do whatever it takes to contact her before she dies.”
“…….”
The audience became quiet.
“……It’s an amazing story.”
Marcello broke the silence and opened his mouth.
“The core of this disaster is a demon named Han Yun-jeong, and Armin Walter is looking for her, drawn by that power… If that information is true, it is a decision.”
Menes stroked his bangs.
“Is she your friend?”
“yes.”
“That’s amazing.”
Menes, who rarely seemed to praise others, was different this time.
“As I said, Han Yun-jeong will use her powers to minimize the damage to the Classic Gate. We just need to protect her from other external pressures and wait for Armin Walter to arrive.”
This is the most decisive reason for joining hands with them.
The Hunter Association of Korea will prioritize eradicating the boss monster of this disaster.
Even if the story about Han Yun-jeong and her sincerity are told one after another, they, as public officials, put the safety of citizens first, so they will get rid of her.
But these are different. As can be seen from their rejection of the Korean government’s offer, their top goal is the arrest and extermination of Armin Walter.
There is ample room for use. Even if the Hunter Association tries to kill Han Yun-jeong, they will stop it in order to lure Armin Walter.
“I know what you mean.”
Menes said.
“But can you trust her? Armin Walter is a person driven by his own greed, so there is no problem, but what happens if she lies? Even if she is sincere, what if the damage to the Classic Gate is not minimized as planned? Above all, what does she plan to do in the end?”
As expected, it raises a fundamental question.
These people are not simple enough to be easily exploited.
“I trust my friend.”
Here, we have no choice but to gamble a little.
“If she doesn’t show up at the appointed place, if she isn’t the core of this disaster, and above all, if I think she won’t be able to control herself, then yes, I can kill her.”
“…….”
“I want you two to see it for yourself and judge for yourself. All we need in return is a little time.”
Seoul serial murder.
Armin Walter.
Catastrophe Classic Gate.
This is an opportunity to tie these three cases together and solve them.
The rice cakes are big enough.
“Just a moment. Please help us create a miracle.”
No matter what each of you is thinking, you have no choice but to bite into this piece of cake.
Ask.
“…….”
10 minutes.
The two had enough time to think about it.
“The gravekeeper will cooperate.”
“The Holy Knights will be your strength.”
I asked for rice cake.
An unprecedentedly large scale is being created.
Now no one can stop me.

next day.
I was talking on the phone with Representative Shin Nara.
-yes that’s right. In Korea, it is estimated that there are four gates in total: Jinju-si, Gunsan-si, Cheonan-si, and Hoengseong-gun. They say the signs are still unstable in Hoengseong, but it seems to be almost certain now.
“It’s intense.”
The scope of the disaster is all of Asia, but the question is how many gates have been opened in each country’s territory.
Considering the fact that Japan, the neighboring country, only had two gates open, it is true that Korea is in a very tight situation.
-Garam Management was in charge of Jinju’s defense. Ugh, that’s a shame. It would have been nice if Yushin had come too.
“I’m sorry. I wasn’t able to help you when it was important.”
I’m sorry to Shinnara, but I added a clause for the right to refuse orders to prepare for situations like this.
When a national or continental disaster occurs, the government mandates the creation of personnel in each guild and management.
The government does not directly call people by name. A few level 5 people, a few level 4 people, etc. Only the number of people to be selected is notified considering the number of hunters in that department.
The guild determines the on-site hunters by considering the current hunters’ condition and schedule.
So, even if such a major disaster occurs, I am free from the ‘duty to go to war’.
“Of course, I’m not playing around when a disaster has occurred. I plan to move on in my own way.”
-Yes, I believe it. The hero of the labyrinth dungeon must have something else on his mind, right? Please don’t worry too much about Garam and focus on what you are doing.
“……thank you.”
I’m glad I found a good person in charge.
When something like this happens, it’s normal for people to get upset and yell at each other, but she was really good at keeping this line.
“Looking like that, you really look like a hunter.”
Han Yun-jeong, sitting next to me, spoke in a sharp voice.
“Then. You’re a real hunter, right?”
“Sigh. Life is so unfair. Some people become certified hunters, while others become monsters and are treated like criminals.”
She raised her arms in displeasure. Her clanking chains bound her wrists.
“I’m sorry, Miss Han.”
Marcello, who was sitting in the back seat, said with a smile on his face.
“I can’t fully trust Miss Han’s condition yet… You may feel uncomfortable, but please be patient. We will release you as soon as we arrive on the scene.”
“Ha, okay.”
Han Yun-jeong expressed her dissatisfaction, but did not pursue it. Because it was an even weirder situation for her to leave Mine alone with her body intact.
We got off the bus and came to the heliport.
– Top owner. 30 minutes before disaster.
