I’m the Only Magic Tower Owner Episode 238

“We’re in big trouble! The Federation…!”

“hmm?”

Sham and I turned our heads at the same time.

“The Federation has notified all world guilds of a qualification re-examination!”

“……what?”

I laughed and brushed my bangs.

The Federation is forcing a re-examination of the qualifications of world guilds. That means that during this period, the world guild’s investigative rights and other benefits will be neutralized.

‘Albert, you bastard. ‘He pretended to be calm all over the world.’

Truly a certified first-class hunter. It wasn’t just that he had good skills.

Even looking at the fact that they crossed over to Malta and attacked the Magic Tower, each and every move was quick and unconventional.

I hit the player first from that side.

* * *

Swiss.

World Federation Headquarters.

“Yes, there is no reversal. Ignore whatever is said and go ahead.”

The Secretary General of the Federation, who once again ordered the World Guild to reexamine its qualifications, put down the receiver and sighed deeply.

“Do we really have to do this?”

As the Secretary General said that and looked away, he saw a man with wings sitting on the window sill.

Without saying a word, he put his hand into his arms, took out a bottle, and threw it away.

“……Huh!”

The Secretary General was scared and jumped in.

I managed to catch the bottle before it hit the floor, but it ended up falling on the floor.

“What is this!”

“Drink.”

“……!”

The Secretary General’s arm holding the glass bottle trembled once.

“Why can’t you believe it?”

Albert came down from the window and grabbed the Secretary General by the arm. His body was lifted up like a paper doll by the tremendous force of the devil.

When Albert rolled up his sleeves, his veins were stained black, like a bruise.

“It’s been quite a while.”

“……Pfft!”

“Drink it. It’s a medicine that slows down the drug’s progression. You should be able to safely last for about a month.”

“I have another promise! The antidote!”

“I will provide you with the antidote after this is over. Just like you, I cannot fully trust you yet.”

Albert took out another bottle from his pocket and held it out in front of the table.

“This is your wife’s responsibility as promised.”

The Secretary General was shocked.

“Lord of the Sky Castle! Do you even realize what you are doing!”

“Of course.”

Albert walked towards the window.

He looked up at the shining sunlight and spoke in a voice with a strange lingering note.

“Someone has to do it.”

* * *

-You f*cking bastards!

I was receiving a call from Yunjeong Han inside the shelter.

When she visited the federation headquarters in Switzerland, her voice was shaking with anger.

-No matter how much I explain that the Lord of the Sky Castle is a shadowy force, they don’t even listen! Insufficient evidence and all, all those old bastards went into ‘Oh, I don’t know about that’ mode!

I smiled bitterly.

“Albert has already done something.”

I contacted Han Yun-jeong and told her all the facts related to Heavenly Castle.

She happened to be at the headquarters and went directly to the higher-ups to protest, but no matter how harshly she spoke, the Federation had no intention of reversing their position.

[The regulation is to conduct a World Guild audit twice a year, and the reason for the audit is unrelated to the current situation.]

[There is no solid evidence for the claim that Cheongongseongju is the person responsible for this incident. The federation will send thanks to Cheongongseong and take action.]

[During the audit period, the World Federation’s investigative authority becomes ineffective.]

Well, these are roughly the stories.

-No, Albert, what is that bastard! Even if you are a level 1 certified person, can you control the federation this much?

“The antidote must have caught the weakness of the upper class. Originally, the antidote was created so that the demons could use it this way.”

Even if you are not the victim, there is a high possibility that at least one of your family members, relatives, or acquaintances has been a victim.

The upper echelons of the Federation were no exception, and Albert took full advantage of that.

“There is no need to be so angry. The situation will not change.”

I calmed down Han Yun-jeong.

“They attacked the player because they were afraid that we would attack with the federation on their backs. Regardless of whether the investigative power has been neutralized or not, we can just attack Albert together and stop his plan. After that, if we reveal our innocence, the federation will no longer have anything to do with it. “I can’t tell you.”

-okay. And that’s all well and good, but you’re talking as if you’ve already joined the world guild?

“Isn’t that what came in?”

-Yes, no.

Oh, I tried to sneak on board, but I failed.

“Anyway, are you going to come and catch the Skywalker at the Cemetery?”

-I have to go. I’m currently in the middle of a disaster attack, so I’ll have to convince the old ladies, but I’ll do my best.

The ‘grandfathers’ she was talking about were the Egyptian Council of Elders. It seems difficult to have an internal force that keeps one in check.

“Tell them that the lives of hundreds of millions of people depend on it.”

-Then those old men will be saying what should happen to Egypt’s 100 million people? Anyway, okay.

“Okay, I’ll contact you again later.”

I finished the call and put down my smartphone. Meanwhile, Sham was enjoying a cup of tea.

“The conversations of young people these days are somewhat difficult.”

“……haha.”

“I just contacted the ghost squad.”

“What do they say?”

She shook her head.

“The reply was that they would think about it. They seemed not very interested.”

“Hmm, isn’t it cold in Mexico in the winter too? I’m sure there are some cold medicine victims there too.”

Sham stirred the teacup with a spoon.

“Because they are a very conservative group. They might think it would be better to sacrifice a few people than take the risk of fighting Albert.”

“Well, it’s worth being cautious. For now, let’s wait and see what happens.”

Next, I contacted Marcello of the Holy Knights.

-If it is a problem related to Mine, I will go to any length.

Marcello readily agrees. He announced his intention to participate in the war.

With this, a 4:1 composition was created.

Looking at the lukewarm response from the Ghost Army, there is a high probability that they will return to neutrality, but our side’s military power is so overwhelmingly superior that even if one force falls out, it will not be a problem.

“Now I guess I should go back soon.”

“Where can I drop it off?”

“Ah, thank you for your words, but it’s okay. I just need to take the warp like I did when I came.”

“Wizards are convenient.”

While Sham was bringing the teacup to his mouth again, EA’s voice was heard.

– Top owner. The magic tower has run out of mana. Please be patient while the mana to open the warp is regenerated.

‘… … Ugh, we’ve finally hit rock bottom.’

This too is a problem.

Even if we find a star, a significant amount of mana is consumed to ‘transit’ from the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea to the area.

Warp magic has the characteristic that mana consumption varies depending on the distance. Opening a warp in front of the magic tower is simple, but the amount of mana required to move the entire magic tower is astronomical. Coming from Korea to Malta was actually quite difficult.

‘I guess I’ll have to find some way.’

* * *

Instead of returning to the magic tower, I took the warp heading straight to Korea.

My destination is the new wizard guild building in Sanggye-dong. There is an important event today.

“Aaaah!”

As soon as Shin Nara saw me, she grabbed my hand and jumped up.

“Thank you for coming! Aren’t you busy these days?”

“Thanks to the CEO’s help in Malta, we have become more relaxed. Oh, has anyone around you had any problems?”

Her expression suddenly became glum.

“Fortunately, my family and I are fine… but there are quite a few employees who took cold medicine. They wouldn’t be able to concentrate on work anyway, so I gave them paid leave and let them spend time with their families.”

“ah……”

“But I’m not too worried. The World Federation will definitely solve it this time too, right?”

Her eyes were so bright that she decided not to say that the federation was being swayed by the person responsible for this incident.

“sure.”

“Oh, this isn’t the time to talk about gloom. Come on in!”

Today is the day when an information session for my new wizard guild ‘Arcane’ will be held, along with an event commemorating the completion of the new building.

To put it simply, Arcane is the second group of magic towers. Basically, it operates like a guild, but places greater emphasis on nurturing wizards. If your achievements increase or you achieve good results, you will have the opportunity to enter the first division, Magic Tower.

It was sure to become a hot topic. Even before opening, interest is exploding from all over the world.

In particular, requests are pouring in from countries such as the UK and the Netherlands, where magic booms have occurred, to build the second and third Arcane units in their countries, saying they will provide all the funds.

“Hunter Kim, this way!”

I entered the auditorium where the briefing session was being held. You can see people filling every seat.

Shin Nara explained that the audience for this briefing session was selected from wizards of the first circle or higher. Everyone had a camcorder and a laptop for taking notes, so the excitement was high.

Now then, where should I watch it… .

“Excuse me for a moment!”

Shinnara stood on tiptoe and attached a microphone to my neck. I blinked in confusion.

“What is it? This?”

“Oh my, were you planning on coming all the way here and just looking around? Of course the top manager needs to say something!”

“……I’m not prepared at all?”

“It’s okay! I think I can come down and say good things to my juniors without feeling pressured!”

Before I had time to reply, the broadcast PD came running down.

“CEO Shin! Let’s start now!”

“Yes. I’ll be back then! Hunter Kim’s turn will be last, so please get ready!”

“……Ah, yes. Please come back.”

Shin Nara followed the PD onto the stage, and I was left alone.

“CEO Kim!”

Suddenly, it’s hot! I turned around in surprise at the hand grabbing his shoulder.

A woman in her 40s with heavy makeup was looking at me.

This is someone I know. Makeup artist team leader ‘Isabel Kim’. She is the person who did my hair while filming the magic lecture video.

“What are you doing here? Hurry!”

“Who, sister?”

She took my hand harshly and dragged me to sit on a chair. She then spoke in a hushed voice.

“Kids~! It’s urgent here! Let CEO Kim do it first!”

“yes!”

From somewhere, my sisters came rushing in and started applying makeup tools to my face.

“No, this is all of a sudden… woop boop!”

“You won’t open your mouth. I’ll put powder on you.”

“I’m going to tone up.”

It only took 5 seconds for me to be overpowered. Isabelle Kim said as she applied a lot of mousse to her hair.

“CEO Shin asked me to briefly touch up the styling.”

“……This doesn’t seem like simple makeup.”

“Because I’m a professional. There’s no such thing as rough in my dictionary!”

In the end, I gave up everything and left myself in their hands.

The gaze was directed towards the camera. At that moment, Shin Nara was coming up on stage.

“Hello, everyone! My name is Shin Nara, the CEO of Garam Management! I am also Arcane’s advisor!”

Shinnara explained the Arcane system.

Indeed, is Garam’s representative different no matter where he is? The speaking skills that clearly point out and explain only important matters are impressive. Even when I listen to it, it feels like it’s stuck in my ears.

After her explanation was over and my hair was finished, the next turn came. He is a friend who came to Korea with me.

“My name is Na Daeyong!”

Na Dae-yong also became a celebrity. He passed the interview the other day and became my direct student. He became the first wizard to become a certified hunter and is the envy of everyone.

He set a very good precedent. There are quite a few people who learn magic with the goal of becoming a master.

however… … .

‘Mr. Daeyong is completely frozen.’

His voice was trembling, perhaps because it was his first time speaking in front of so many people.

He must have forgotten everything he had memorized, so he glanced at the letters written on his palm and continued speaking with difficulty.

Clap clap clap clap!

“cheer up!”

Seeing Daeyong Na like that, the audience applauded in encouragement. I, Daeyong, let out an awkward laugh, but soon began to tell my story, perhaps gaining courage.

Although he was not as skillful a speaker as Shin Nara, the audience and I were increasingly drawn into his story by his strangely sincere voice.

“My license period was a series of hardships. The person who appeared in front of me was Hunter Kim Yu-shin!”

… … huh?

I’m coming out at this timing?

“Master gave me the courage that I could do it! The training was harsh, but I was very impressed by his words that if I followed him, he would take me to the top!”

… … Why are you talking so well all of a sudden? As soon as my story came out, Na Daeyong returned to his usual over-tension and spoke passionately, even splashing his spit in front of everyone.

“Follow me, everyone!”

When Na Daeyong stretched out his arm, sparks crackled and flew.

“I now have my own identity. Let’s give a big blow to the world that laughs at us for being non-combatant and without market value! This is our day!”

“Waaaaaa!”

As I watched, I smiled bitterly.

It’s not like a corporate briefing session, but like a weekend worship service for fanatics.

“Ah! CEO Kim is here!”

The broadcast PD approached me.

“Please prepare for the next round right away.”
