I’m the only magic tower owner episode 040
As soon as Hongyeon made eye contact with me, she immediately ran away.
‘What are we going to do?’
You provoked someone, spied on them, and now you’re running away?
I ran after her.
‘does not exist.’
I ran to where she was and found that it was just an empty lot behind the gym.
‘Ah! Please track down that red-haired guy from earlier.’
-Leaving in the 10 o’clock direction. It’s moving at breakneck speed.
Let’s give it a try, right? I placed my leaf boots under my feet, activated them, and flew high into the sky.
Whoa!
A cold wind blew. In an instant, I was at a place so high that I could see the ceiling of the gym. I could see all the people passing by.
– Secure the shortest route, over there.
‘Goes.’
I climbed over the empty shield that Ea had spread, jumped over several buildings, and came down to the ground. In the blink of an eye, it traveled a distance of several hundred meters.
-There is a target around the corner.
‘okay.’
I secretly stuck my head out and looked ahead.
“…….”
Hongyeon was sitting in her seat with a calm expression on her face as if nothing had happened, to the point where I felt embarrassed that she had even chased her.
As she gestured, a stray cat was crawling out of a narrow gap.
“What are you going to do now?”
When I showed up, the cat got scared and ran away. “Hongyeon,” he let out a disappointed sigh.
“Can I talk to you for a moment? Student council president.”
She stood up at my words and approached me hesitantly. Although the production is like a freshman running nervously at the call of a senior student.
It’s all acting.
“Why do you keep spying on people? If you have any business, tell me now.”
She raised her head and made eye contact with me.
“……I’m curious.”
The atmosphere suddenly changed completely.
“I heard that my senior’s unique ability has changed this time. It’s not well known, but it’s the first case in Korea.”
aha. Is it because of that?
“The changed ability is a mana manipulation series. The power to use mana to create a wide range of supernatural abilities.”
“I did a lot of research.”
“but.”
She turned her head and avoided my gaze.
“Looking at it this time, it’s not that great…”
… … Write something like this.
This keeps provoking people.
“If it’s below your expectations, just ignore it and move on. Why do you keep stealing from people?”
“Actually, I have a personal question.”
I flinched for a moment. The deep, dark eyes looked straight at me, as if they were absorbing the person.
Her eyes were clearly focused on my right eye, which was wearing a lens.
“How did the senior obtain that power?”
… What should this mean? Do you know something?
“If you’re curious about someone else’s hand.”
I continued speaking without avoiding her eyes.
“The order is to start with you and see what you see. Isn’t that right?”
“…….”
She stared at my face in silence and eventually withdrew her gaze.
“Excuse me, senior.”
When the subject showed her fangs, she bowed again, acting like a polite first-year student, and then turned around.
I thought she was going to go back like that, but she didn’t go far and just sat quietly on a nearby bench and looked at me.
“Is there still business left?”
She pointed.
“Wouldn’t you like to practice swing ball now?”
The tips of her fingers were pointed at the swing ball bulging in my pocket.
“……Well, okay.”
Actually, I was a little inspired by the way that guy did it.
If you want to record a foul like that, I’ll show you how it can be done.
I put the gauntlet on my right hand and threw the ball upwards.
‘Are you ready? ‘Ahh.’
-I’m ready!
I grinned and stretched out my fist.
Toukwaang!
The ball flew straight ahead quickly, with blue sparks exploding. I raised my index finger up.
A spear of frost shot up from just above the ground and knocked the ball into the sky.

And in the sky where the ball went up, magic circles created by Ea and I were precisely calculated.
The ice spears and shields that appeared in the sky at my direction continued to bend and twist the direction of the ball. From a distance, it looks like the ball is bouncing around infinitely, like a ball bouncing game.
While Hongyeon was staring blankly at the scene, I slammed the ball down for the finishing touch.
Toukwaak!
The ball hit the center of the cage, creating a fierce wind.
I walked over and lifted the ball.
“Well, actually, it is more accurate to measure this with a dedicated device, but the numbers on the ball are…”
Ball self-measurements 389, 452 PHH.
Hongyeon saw this and smiled secretly.
Then he got up from the bench and approached with long strides.
“senior.”
“……why?”
“I don’t think this will lead to a resolution.”
She grinned.
“If I were to challenge you to a duel, would you accept it?”
* * *
I returned to the Magic Tower.
Oh, challenge to a duel?
Of course I refused. I’m already so busy, but what kind of duel is this?
Although he was a guy that bothered me, the first thing I had to do was solve the 3rd floor ordeal, which was my goal.
“Welcome! Senior!”
As I entered the magic tower, Jin Jin-ra waved and welcomed me.
“I’m going to challenge the boss tonight.”
She looked shocked at my declaration.
“Isn’t this too urgent? Devastar…!”
“It’s settled now. I got an important hint.”
In the end, I think it was a good decision to go to the academy. There is one thing I realized through this class and my encounter with Hongyeon.
In the swing test, I thought too piecemeal.
I just threw the ball because I had to.
However, after seeing what Hongyeon did, I was able to break away from one-dimensional thinking.
As always, enlightenment does not come from grandiose contemplation, but simply emerges from a moment in everyday life.
The point is that there is no need to do everything at once.
“Preparations are complete.”
The hint I got was the division of the magic circle.
* * *
[Move to the save point.]
I stepped on the portal to the third floor again and entered the ordeal.
When I opened my eyes and looked around, it really was as it was.
From the shattered black golem to the large skull still hanging on the wall.
When I looked back, the blue portal at the save point had disappeared, and only the green portal leading out remained.
It seemed like there was only one chance to save.
“Then I can’t back down any more.”
– Are you sure you don’t mind? Top owner.
“It’s okay. I’m confident.”
In the end, the problem is Devasta.
I am confident that if this technique is perfect, I will be able to defeat any monster that appears as a boss.
I walked towards the black portal where the boss room was.
[Go to the final boss room of the ordeal.]
[Once you enter the boss room, you cannot leave.]
[Would you like to enter the boss room?]
Huh. I took a deep breath, strengthened my resolve, and spoke.
“I’m going in.”
Once again my body was sucked into darkness.
The most tense moment of the ordeal. I calmly waited for my vision to recover.
Woooooo!
After hearing a loud noise reminiscent of an engine, the surroundings slowly began to brighten from the direction I was in.
“……!”
The moment the lights came on all the way to the dark temple, I took a deep breath.
There was a huge eye attached to the end wall of the temple.
The shaking eyelids, eye wrinkles, and even blood vessels are so realistic that it gives me goosebumps. Around the eyes, things that looked like disgusting optic nerves were sticking together and extending in all directions.
And above all.
Slurrrrr.
Slur.
Srrrrrrrrr.
Hundreds of tentacles of indeterminable length are fluttering about.
“I’m glad you came without eating.”
-That’s terrible.
Ea and I shared our thoughts and raised our mana.
In the end, you have to defeat that guy to get out of here.
“Any information about the monster?”
-Search complete. The name is Elder Tentacle. Rank unknown. There is a record of it being discovered in an ancient ruin in the Great Desert, and it is a monster that lived by preying on adventurers and merchants targeting the ruins. It attacks by swinging its hundreds of tentacles like a whip or thrusting them like a spear.
“Okay. Then we should first test whether the magic works, right?”
I immediately took out five Spin Guide Arrows and fired them.
All of the irregularly rotating mana arrows hit the Ender Tentacle’s eyes.
However, the moment it touched the soft guy’s eyes, the mana arrow just fell to the floor like a toy that hit a cushion.
-As expected, it doesn’t work.
“hmm.”
It seems that the concept of immunity to magic attacks will be maintained throughout this ordeal. In that case, the only answer is Devasta.
The boss monster has now sensed the intruder and started attacking.
Shuhuaaaaaaa!
The sight of hundreds of tentacles moving towards me was terrifying. Even though the distance was quite long, the tentacles were increasing in length and trying to reach me.
I had no choice but to stop chanting Devasta and throw myself away.
Boom!
A tentacle flew from above and hit the floor and bounced off. Looking at the cavernous floor, the power is no joke.
I tried setting up a shield just in case, but as expected, it broke without saving any time.
He narrowly avoided attacks coming from left and right by bending his back, then stepped on Ea’s just-completed leaf boots and left the spot.
“Pfft!”
As soon as I landed on the floor and could barely catch my breath, tentacles attacked from above.
Quack! Sigh! Sigh! Sigh!
I moved my body frantically as the attacks poured down like rain. This is why you can’t cast high-level magic circles like Devastar.
– Top owner! Are you okay?
“okay.”
I stepped away, scratching the floor, and raised my head.
Did you say Elder Tentacles? This guy is similar to me. An attack with overwhelming force.
But still.
“It’s more worth doing than I thought.”
-… … yes?
face. Head side.
When I turned my head to the side, a tentacle flew like lightning and passed by my cheek.
Front and side again.
He jumped off the ground and dodged one, then stepped on the shield in the air and tumbled in the opposite direction.
Two tentacles split the space I was in.
Buuuuung!
As soon as I landed on the floor, I arched my back too much. Tentacles passed through the air.
I gasped and turned around to see countless player windows popping up.
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
– Top owner! how… … !
“It’s worth doing because it’s patterned.”
The hundreds of tentacles used by the Elder Tentacle are undoubtedly menacing. However, it is neither slow nor weak in attack power.
But the pattern is consistent.
Swing or stab.
In other words, hundreds of the same style of swinging and thrusting are repeated very quickly.
If you can predict an attack in advance, you can somehow avoid it by actively utilizing space.
Srurr.
Slur.
Srrrrrrrrr.
The boss increased the number of attacks. A total of more than thirty tentacles are rushing in.
I opened my wise eyes wide. I read the tentacles’ trajectory in advance and placed four shields in the air.
And then he jumped right away.
Quack! bang! bang!
I stepped on the shields in the air and jumped frantically. There were tentacles waiting in the air, but if he stepped on his leaf boots and escaped, he could outrun dozens of tentacles at once.
front. Swing.
right. sting.
stomach. sting.
My body began to avoid the attack in a trance.
This was a really special experience.
The more the tentacles threatened me, the more my speed increased and the more experience I gained. The next attack can be avoided much more easily.
As those crises and experiences piled up, my movements gradually became less and less cluttered.
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[Your speed has increased by 1.]
[The prediction avoidance trait has been obtained.]
‘at las!’
I finally got my first body type trait.
I’ve already entered the trial, so I’ll make sure to go all the way to the boss battle.
fantasy,
