I’m the only magic tower owner Chapter 205

I’m the only magic tower owner episode 205

Anton brought me to the mansion’s warehouse. It was like a maze.

“This mansion doubles as my safe. It is designed with 37 levels of security magic. It is willingly opened to thieves and treasure hunters from all over the world.”

You opened the safe to thieves? What does that mean?

“Well, then what happens if they come here and fail?”

“If you’re lucky, you’ll be crippled, but usually you’ll die.”

Anton saw my blank expression and chuckled.

“Think of it as a game where all my money is on the line! It’s become so infamous now that people don’t even try it. That’s a shame.”

As expected, the madness from when I was young doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. When I read Anton’s diary, there were many times when I felt like he was doing something crazy.

I watched him disarm the security spell.

They really created some kind of dungeon. There are classic traps with spears rising from the floor or arrows being fired, and there are also traps teeming with monsters. They were undead monsters that did not starve to death even if they were around for a long time.

So we arrived at our destination.

“and……!”

Everything sparkles with gold. Countless gold coins and bars literally formed a mountain. The walls were lined with expensive paintings, relics, and equipment.

It felt like even a single blink was a waste as I was so absorbed in appreciating the amazing sight.

“What is all this?”

“These are collections that I acquired while wandering the world my whole life. Actually, when I was young, I was a bit greedy for material things.”

Anton said with a grin.

“As you know, wouldn’t it be nice to make money if you become the owner of a magic tower?”

“There is no problem in making a living.”

“You are kind of humble!”

Anton led me deeper. I climbed the jingling hill of gold coins and went deeper.

‘This place… … ?’

Unlike the flashy space before, it was a simple room. However, the weapons hanging on the wall were not ordinary.

Even though I knew nothing about weapons or relics, I could tell that it was an item of astronomical value.

“It is often said that wizards are a profession that receives less ‘equipment money,’ but that doesn’t mean they don’t receive it at all.”

“I agree.”

If it weren’t for the force field suit I’m wearing right now, I might have already become one-armed, or I might have been rolling around like a corpse.

“There are many wizards in our magic tower who are so obsessed with their magic skills that they neglect their equipment. They think it is a virtue to wear a single-colored robe and defeat all enemies with bare hands and magic without a staff. That’s a foolish story. They lack preparation. They can’t use their power easily and quickly like equipment. “There is no way to increase it. Not using good equipment is like sealing the best power-up means to yourself.”

Anton, who was talking loudly, looked at me and smiled.

“Choose one from here and take it.”

My mouth dropped open.

“……Um, really?”

“Can I just say this out loud? My senior has to do this much for me to become his successor.”

I felt like I was going to lose my mind. All of them are SS-class weapons! There are less than ten people on Earth who use such equipment.

“But if I take this, Anton…”

“All the equipment I use is in the Magic Tower. I keep it because I don’t use it often, but each and every piece of equipment is worth buying a small kingdom. It won’t be enough in your eyes.”

I looked at Anton blankly.

“Senior.”

“Why but?”

“It may be my first time meeting you, but I love you.”

Anton chuckled loudly.

“This is news that my wife will not be happy about. Hurry up and make a choice. Didn’t you say that I was very greedy when I was young? It would be better to make a choice quickly before I change my mind.”

At those words, I hurriedly ran to the front of Mugu.

‘Ugh, what should I choose?’

13 SS-class weapons. I quickly finished scanning.

A mace, full plate armor, and a large helmet are also visible. These are quite burdensome or inefficient to use as a wizard. Anton must have been sealed in this safe for that reason, so let’s put aside some of the things that can’t be used even if he dies.

And things a wizard might use.

Two staffs, a wand, a robe, a cloak, and winged shoes.

“That wand has the Memorize spell on it. Would you like to try it?”

“yes!”

After hearing Anton tell me how to use it, I cast Rapid Arrow. Then, light emerged from the tip of the wand and absorbed the Rapid Arrow magic circle.

“Now try activating the stored magic.”

When I aimed the wand, Rapid Arrow was launched without any action and hit the wall.

“Oooooh!”

“How is it?”

“Is this really good? I’d like to see other things too!”

“Slowly and evenly.”

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I carefully examined the weapons and tried them on myself.

All of them are good weapons, worthy of their SS-class reputation. No matter what I used, it was certain that my power would immediately increase significantly. but… … .

‘If you think about it, it seems like it could be replaced somehow?’

You can use the Memorize function by learning the Memorize magic later. There is no major problem with magical power amplification or the calculation of the formula itself because EA is present.

There must be a reason why a great wizard like Anton doesn’t use it in the field.

But I wanted a weapon that would do the things I couldn’t do.

‘Like this necklace.’

I walked around, lightly holding Anton’s necklace containing the water curtain.

“……hmm.”

There was also a sword. It is a wide sword, but its length is relatively short for a great sword, so it does not seem to be intended for swinging. I took out the sword.

“Ugh!”

It’s very heavy. As soon as I lifted it, it hit the floor! He made a sound and dropped it.

“The name of that sword is ‘Specter.’ It has a personal lightening spell. Infuse it with your mana.”

I nodded, infused mana into the sword, and then raised it. It became light enough to be carried with one hand.

“Are you a bit of a swordsman?”

“No. I’m sick.”

I struggled and swung my sword a few times. I tried to lower my sword diagonally, as if imitating Hong Yeon’s movements that remained in my mind, but it was as bad as ever.

I am not good at swordsmanship. The talent itself is non-existent.

“What are the abilities of this sword?”

Anton burst out laughing.

“You have eyes to see. The second function is ‘transfer’. You can teleport the sword to a location within your vision.”

After listening to the explanation, I tried activating the teleportation trigger felt on the sword. The sword left my hand and appeared at the end of a far wall.

“oh!”

“And the third function is ‘antenna.’ The magic you cast can be manifested directly from that sword.”

I tried Rapid Arrow right away. It was a strange feeling. A high-speed magic circle created from the palm of one’s hand using the stamping method was engraved on a sword far away.

I teleported the sword back into my hand and sent it back to the other end of the wall. At the same time, when Rapid Arrow was activated, golden arrows flew out from the sword one after another.

“Good!”

-It’s pretty good. Top owner.

The power, casting speed, and safety of remote casting decrease as the distance increases.

However, if you use this great sword, you can cast it immediately even from a long distance. By attaching magic to the sword surface, it even has a kind of memorize effect.

Rather than strengthening the magic, it is an effect that allows the magic to unfold at two points. In a way, it’s like using two versions of myself.

“And the last function is ‘eternal’. It is an indestructible equipment.”

“This is good.”

I liked it until the last option.

I summoned the Specter back into my hand.

“If you allow me, I would like to take this sword.”

Anton chuckled.

“Are you really okay with that? As you felt, the level of difficulty in using it is the highest.”

“Instead, it has the best versatility. That’s why it’s my style.”

Since I was fighting to create variables, I was confident in using the weapon. I put the sword on my back.

“Hoo.”

Anton, who was watching, was amazed.

“It looks good on you, just like it was originally yours!”

Gray blade and navy blue robe. It really fit together well as a set.

Feeling better, I took a spin in my spot.

“Does this make me a bit like a prosecutor? Fake play.”

“You’re too much of a wizard to fake something like that.”

“ha ha ha!”

At that time, my smiling body became blurry again without warning.

I must have cleared the mission and received a reward. Now there is no longer any reason to stay in this world.

The trials on the 6th floor have also ended.

“Now you’re heading back.”

“Yes, thank you very much. You are my benefactor.”

When I bowed again and expressed my gratitude, Anton smiled softly.

“Even when you return to your world, please don’t forget the lessons from this sixth floor ordeal.”

“of course.”

I clenched my fists.

“Oh, now that I think about it, there’s just one thing I didn’t hear.”

“What do you mean?”

“About Erendel.”

If you only listen to Anton’s story, Erendel was ideal.

If Machinatio is science, Erendel is a world where magic is extremely developed. As many as three magic tower lords were produced.

The 11th, 12th, and 13th generations were all owners of the Magic Tower of Erendel, and were equipped with as much information and systematic magic processes as their history.

A world with the most wizards and the strongest magic tower. Why did such a place perish? I couldn’t guess.

Anton closed his eyes.

“It is too early to tell you now. You will find out for yourself when you reach the final ordeal of the Tower.”

“…… All right.”

I decided not to ask. Considering that a great sage like Anton said he would not tell me now, I think there must be a reason.

“I guess I can at least give you some advice.”

Anton opened his eyes and said:

“If you give it too much affection, it will suffer later.”

“yes?”

After saying something I had no idea what he was saying, my vision turned black.

With a floating feeling, my body was sucked back into the black vortex.

[congratulations! The ordeal has been cleared.]

[The 6th floor of the Magic Tower, ‘Mana Mine’, is unlocked.]

[Acquires some of the characteristics of a ‘mine keeper.’]

As I see the rising player messages, my body continues to move upward. A point of light is visible in a space where there is nothing but darkness.

The moment you break through there.

Paaaaaa!

The world has changed rapidly.

I was back in the dungeon again.

“……It’s true.”

To be precise, we have reached the core of the dungeon. I can’t see who has already defeated the boss monster, and I’m all alone here. It was the same situation I saw in Anton’s diary.

It took quite some time, but it eventually worked out as planned. I took a deep breath and placed my hands on the floor.

“Let’s get started right away. Ea.”

-Yes. We begin synchronization to take over the dungeon.
