I’m the only magic tower owner episode 016
“Waaah!”
I really brought Jin Jin-ra to the magic tower right then and there.
… … I never thought he would really follow me.
Is he fearless? Or am I just not thinking?
If a man you recently met suddenly says he’s taking you to a restricted area, isn’t it normal to become wary?
When I questioned that point while heading to the Magic Tower, she smiled and answered.
‘You don’t seem like the kind of person who would do strange things because he is inarticulate.’
I don’t know if it’s a compliment or an insult.
Anyway, in order to enter the magic tower, you had to have the symbol of the magic tower engraved on your body, and you asked Jin Jin-ra’s understanding about the prohibition in advance. She coolly agreed.
So I brought her into the magic tower. She turned her head to look at the golden lobby with excitement.
“Can I take a picture?”
“no.”
“Why yooooo!”
I can’t say that to my face because I’m addicted to social media.
“You’re not an official yet.”
“I will! I will accept your offer! I want to work here!”
I cried out in joy.
Recruitment was a success. In fact, I thought the game would be over as long as I brought this guy into the magic tower.
“You said it was potion preparation, right? Leave it to me! I will mix it up and enchant it to make it the perfect product!”
She put her hand on her forehead and assumed a saluting posture and narrowed her eyes.
… … Wow, it’s an obvious behavior, but it’s cute.
“A new customer has arrived.”
At that time, a cluster of lights gathered in the air and EA appeared.
I told Jin Jin-ra about it, but I thought she would be surprised when she saw it, but she smiled brightly and ran over to hold Ea’s hands.
“Mr. Ea? Is that right? My name is Jinbo, and I will be working with you from now on! Please take care of me!”
“Yes. It is me.”
… … You adapt too quickly.
The way Jeong Seo-jin and I looked was almost comical.
For some reason, I felt relaxed and sat down on the sofa and said.
“Look forward.”
“Yes! Senior!”
She took a good posture and answered.
“I’m telling you, the information on the Magic Tower is confidential for the time being. There’s also the issue of embargo. If you take a picture and post it on something like SNS, you’ll be in big trouble.”
“Oh, of course. Do I look like a woman who can’t even behave like that?”
Yeah, sorry, but it looks that way.
“But it won’t be confidential forever, right?”
My true feelings came out in just a few seconds.
“Not forever. I plan to make it public after we have built up enough power to avoid being eaten by other forces.”
By then, I will be able to change the settings of the forbidden magic.
“If that’s the case, I’d be happy too! It’s important to decide when something like this will explode!”
It was a story without a subject, but I could guess what it meant.
At the very moment when the identity of Magic Tower is revealed and its stock price reaches its peak, people will post selfies with hashtags and frantically post messages like ‘#Me working at Magic Tower!’
Still, I think it gave me motivation to persevere until then, so let’s think positively.
“Senior! Senior! So I am the first person to contribute to the founding?”
“……Contributed to founding the country?”
“There are three of us in the Magic Tower: me, my senior, and Mr. Ea.”
“Oh, actually, there’s one more person.”
She pursed her lips.
“Hey, that’s a shame. I’m enough on my own… but who is the other person?”
“I’m sad too.”
Sweet.
The door in the back room opened and Jeong Seo-jin appeared, yawning.
“I heard that the tower lord was bringing in a talented person in the potion preparation field, so I was expecting someone, hmm.”
Why is he so angry from the very first moment?
Jeong Seo-jin, with a blank face, as if he had stayed up all night, approached me and spoke in a low voice.
“It’s just my personal opinion, but aren’t you too young to be entrusted with important responsibilities? Someone with more dignity and weight…”
“No, over there!”
Jin Jin-ra responded angrily.
“You don’t seem to be much different from me, but are you acting like an old man when you keep talking about how old you are?”
“I’m twenty-one.”
“We’re the same age!”
“It’s fast.”
“Shut up!”
… … Why are you guys fighting?
I gave an additional explanation to Jeong Seo-jin.
“Jimbo is an enchanter. He can almost double the performance of potions, so he will be of great help to our business in the future.”
“Ahem, did you hear?”

As she crossed her arms and swaggered, Jeong Seo-jin adjusted his glasses with a disapproving look on his face.
“Anyway, as time passes, potion sales become limited. Since we cannot sell each potion by enchanting it, the ability is there, but it is mana.”
“No, what do you mean? You can sell enchanted potions at a premium!”
“It is more efficient to make one more bottle of potion while enchanting.”
“Don’t you know the term ‘scarcity value’? And you keep talking about mass-produced products, but when a high-quality potion is released, the difference in value between enchanting and not enchanting is several times…”
I gave up trying to break up the fight. Instead, I asked:
“Do you two know each other?”
“no.”
“I do not know.”
“But why are we fighting like this?”
Both people answered at the same time.
“I’m unlucky!”
I gave up on understanding.
-The humans on Earth are fascinating.
Ea also came next to me and said something in her head.
I agree.
“You two, stop fighting and come here. I’ll give you administrator privileges now.”
‘Manager’ position for each floor listed in the Youngjichang.
As the owner of the Mage Tower, I had authority over the Mage Tower’s personnel affairs and was able to assign managerial positions to others.
When you become a floor manager, you are granted authority over that floor and three personal characteristics related to it.
As Jin Jin-ra said, these two people are also contributors to the founding of the country, so I plan to give them positions to test this function.
Of course, I can reclaim my position whenever I want, so there is no burden.
First, Jin Jin-ra, who would be in charge of the first floor, was called.
“Then let’s do it.”
“yes!”
I opened the retinue window.
Youngju: Kim Yu-shin.
Progress: Ha.
Total number of people: 2 people.
Horsepower: 7, 980, 074
1st floor: Potion Preparation Bureau / [Potion Preparation Manager: None] – Please assign a position.
2nd floor: Main Library / [Secretary: None] – Please assign a position.
3rd floor: ???
4th floor: ???
5th floor: ???
6th floor: ???
7th floor: ???
8th floor: ???
9th floor: Magic Tower Lord’s room / [Magic Tower Lord: Kim Yu-shin]
Horsepower Power Plant: The Horsepower Power Plant is permanently running. The tower’s magic power is maintained at a certain amount.
Shape Memory Alloy: The walls of the Magic Tower are made of a special alloy that returns to its original shape over time even after receiving a large impact.
Natural Regeneration: Members of the Magic Tower receive the regeneration effect of physical strength and magic power within the Magic Tower.
After opening the manor window, you will see ‘Please grant a position’ next to the first floor. I clicked on the words.
[Please select the person you wish to appoint as the potion brewer.]
[Privilege: Potion Preparation Lv.10, Potion Preparation Lv.10, Potion Swing Lv.10]
When I took my hand away from the words, the bluish Magic Tower emblem appeared on my fingertips like a seal.
It looks like all you have to do is carve this somewhere on your body like you did when you let the kids into the magic tower. The form of the sentence was different from that for entrance.
“I think I need to engrave a new sentence. Where do you want to do it?”
“Well, okay.”
Jin Jin-ra thought seriously. No, this is something to worry about… … .
“Just do it on the back of your hand.”
“Hey, it’s no fun if you do it on the back of your hand normally.”
As she continued to think, she smiled meaningfully.
“It’s okay to be in a slightly sexy place, right?”
“……hey.”
“Oh hoho! I’m just kidding. I’ll just leave it here.”
She rolled up her sleeves and exposed her arms.
When I put my finger on it, blue light flashed and a pattern was engraved on it.
“……!”
I thought it was just a matter of engraving a pattern, but her reaction was unusual.
His eyes widened, his shoulders shook several times, and he eventually collapsed to the floor.
It was similar to the reaction I had when I first became a magic tower owner.
“are you okay?”
“……Ah yes.”
Although she was sweating coldly, she tried to smile.
“I suddenly felt a strange feeling… I was just a little surprised.”
Jinbo-ra was staring into the air as if checking her status window.
Several expressions passed by. Surprise, bewilderment, doubt, and the final emotion was joy.
Wow! He screamed and ran around the lobby.
“Wow! That’s ridiculous! I got three level 10 talents!”
“That’s the benefit you get when you become the manager of the Magic Tower.”
I immediately checked her status window.
Name: Jin Jin
Unique Ability: Enchant
Personal characteristics: [Structure understanding Lv.4] [Sniper Lv.3] [All-rounder Lv.3]
Main stats: [acceleration 78] [horse power 45] [stamina 24] [strength 10]
Special abilities: [Charisma 20] [Adaptation 3] [Leadership 2]
Total ability score: [185]
New characteristics: New![Potion Preparation Lv.10] New![Potion Preparation Lv.10] New![Potion Swing Lv.10]
Well, it’s pretty good.
Although it was not comparable to the benefits I received from the magic tower, it was exactly the personal characteristics necessary for potion preparation.
From unique ability enchantments to potion preparation characteristics, a truly customized potion player has been completed.
She screamed in joy when she saw the status window, then came back to me and placed her hand on her forehead.
“I pledge my loyalty! Mage Tower Lord! Isn’t this trait going somewhere?”
“Unless I retrieve it.”
“Hurray!”
Jeong Seo-jin was watching the scene silently from the side.
Although he doesn’t show it, he seems quite envious.
“Then shall we go to the second floor together?”
“What’s on the second floor?”
“I’ll find out when I get there.”
We took the magic circle elevator and went straight to the second floor.
“Waaah!”
A floor full of books appeared on all sides. If you look here, there is a book. If you look there, there is a book.
There was a bookcase installed in the recessed wall inside, and books were tightly packed inside.
There were books full of books even at heights out of reach, and there were even books floating in the air, and it seemed like they had been organized.
This is the main study on the second floor of the Magic Tower.
If the symbol of the first floor was ‘potion’, the symbol of the second floor was ‘information’.
Jin Jin-ra carefully took out a nearby book, blew away the dust, and looked at the title.
“Huh? The book is all in strange language.”
“okay.”
Jeong Seo-jin, who was looking at other books next to him, also adjusted his glasses with a troubled expression.
“It seems like an alien language, but even though there are a lot of books, I can’t read them….”
“‘Origin and habits of the kobold race.’ “What?”
Jin Jin-ra and Jeong Jeong-jin looked at me with surprised expressions.
… … No, kids. I am the magic tower owner here.
“Can Ea read too?”
I turned around and asked, and she nodded.
“Affirmative. Language skills are installed as standard.”
“For your information, the person who receives the position of secretary will also have otherworldly language skills.”
Jeong Seo-jin’s shoulders were startled and trembled at my words, but he quickly regained his composure.
“…Otherworldly knowledge and data. It’s attractive, but I don’t think it’s time yet.”
“hmm?”
“Potions can only be made within the magic tower, but knowledge is different. No matter how forbidden magic is, there is a risk of it leaking outside. I am also aware of my position and background. If I am judged to be a more trustworthy person…”
“What are you talking about now?”
I opened the window and raised my finger.
“If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t have brought you here.”
“……Yushin hyung!”
Jeong Seo-jin, who was shaking his body, soon shouted the same line as Jin Jin-ra.
“I will be loyal!”
… … Why is everyone like this? Embarrassing people.
Well, actually, I think I would have licked my shoes with joy if someone had come up to me during my off-force days and offered to give me three Lv. 10 personal characteristics.
That’s how important the characteristics are to the player, and the manager benefits are unprecedented, like Cinderella’s magic, turning ordinary people into artisans in a field at once.
I engraved the manager’s emblem on Jeong Seo-jin’s wrist.
After a while, Jeong Seo-jin also looked at his status window and his eyes widened. There was a smile that couldn’t be hidden on her lips.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen that guy smile like that.
Name: Jeong Seo-jin
Unique Ability: Iron Man
Personal characteristics: [Excellent Businessman Lv.4] [Business Management Lv.3] [Perfectionist Lv.3]
Main stats: [Stamina 75] [Strength 46] [Magic Power 30] [Acts 27]
Special abilities: [Intelligence 9] [Insight 2] [Speed 2]
Total ability score: [191]
New characteristics: New![Scribe Lv.10] New![Bookmaster Lv.10] New![Information Processing Lv.10]
“Hung, I’m a little jealous, but I still like the first floor that I manage better!”
Jin Jin-ra crossed her arms and continued.
“Potion preparation is directly related to money! It’s like books from other worlds….”
“Don’t say anything you don’t know.”
Jeong Seo-jin took out a book and said.
“The title of this book is ‘The Baphomet Incident in the Kingdom of Aland.’”
“Why is that?”
“Don’t you know? It’s the same as the Baphomet incident that occurred in Melbourne, Australia.”
Jin Jin-ra’s mouth opened.
“It may still be a hasty guess, but if we assume that the two worlds that overlap due to the overlay phenomenon are moving in a similar direction, we may be able to know in advance what the future will bring us.”
“……ah.”
“Not only that, it’s full of information that money can’t buy, including information about unknown monsters and knowledge about magic. It’s on a different level from there.”
“What! Are you ignoring the first floor now?”
“I’m not ignoring the first floor, I’m just ignoring their ignorance.”
The two started growling again. I turned my head, thinking I would do that now.
“Come to think of it, Ea. What happened to the continent of Erendel, where the Magic Tower was originally located?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Ea. She quietly closed her eyes.
“There are no records of this, but if I had to guess, the ‘emergency sealing’ function was automatically executed when the existence of the Magic Tower itself was judged to be difficult. And at the time, there was no force capable of overthrowing the Magic Tower on the Erendel Continent.”
“What does that mean?”
“I suspect that something unexpected happened. We cannot deny the possibility that the world collapsed within a short period of time.”
Everyone fell silent.
If the Erendel Continent falls into tragedy, I think the Earth will eventually suffer the same fate as the Erendel Continent.
But, just because you worry about it doesn’t mean you can find a way to do it right away.
Now we must grow thoroughly to prepare for such an event.
“While preparing to distribute the Seojin potion, please research the history of Erendel whenever you have time.”
“All right.”
No matter how much it is an ‘overlay’, it is still too early to jump to the conclusion that the fates of the two worlds are the same. I had to look into this more.
“And Bora, as soon as you finish the academy, stop by the Magic Tower and learn how to make potions.”
“Yes! Senior!”
But now that people are coming in, I feel like something is starting to turn around.
I separated from the two people and returned to the top 9th floor, which was the floor under my direct control.
‘Let’s get started now.’
I unfolded the magic tower and stretched out.
There are many 2nd process magics that I have not learned yet.
I had a hard time sleeping today too.
