Admission is a waste of time (126)
Lesson 26. Pushing away when you get close – 1
“What is that?”
Ban Yu-won, who had just finished his morning meal and opened his eyes, was so flustered that he started speaking in a strange dialect.
The mountain was falling.
It’s not like a stone is rolling away, it’s like a towering rock mountain is falling backwards!
“No, what is that… … .”
-You’ve done something similar to that.
“Hey, I… … he died on his own.”
-I think that’s even more amazing… … .
I was wondering what on earth Dokgo Yeon was doing to cause the mountain to fall like that, and as I was watching, I saw limbs sprouting from the mountain.
In other words, Dokgoyeon is dealing with a giant golem made of a mountain, not a mountain!
Ban Yu-won opened his mouth like an idiot, looking at the mountain golem that raised itself again, causing a huge vibration in the area, as if it wouldn’t fall over after falling over once or twice.
“If Dokgo Yeon hadn’t been there, the game would have been over when that happened? That top kid is doing balance patches like a dog!”
– Think about it the other way around. Isn’t it true that the current balance patch is in a good state?
“… … Huh!”
Ban Yu-won thought about those words for a moment.
What if the Rebellion Party’s military power is so much stronger than that of other parties that such an absurd situation is occurring despite being low-level?
Of course, this wouldn’t be the case for everyone, but what if Ban Yu-won was a member of Rebellion and was able to reveal the tower’s true form at a perfect time?
Ban Yu-won broke out in a cold sweat at the very plausible hypothesis.
“If this continues, it’s going to be tough.”
– If you continue to multi-shift, that could happen. Wouldn’t it just get worse?
“… … No, I like it.”
Ban Yu-won, who was terrified when he first saw the mountain moving over, checked the internal code and confirmed that his life had reached 588, forcing himself to smile broadly.
“The harder it is, the greater the reward. While others are bragging about the surface of the tower, we are slowly eating away at the inside.”
―What awaits at the end… … .
Celon speaks in a hazy voice.
Ban Yu-won secretly looked at her.
“Do you know by any chance?”
-If I knew that, I would be the master of the tower.
That was a fair point.
―But it is true that you are now walking a path that others have not walked for thousands of years. Don’t you think you have a higher chance of reaching the top of the tower than those who have done the same thing tens or millions of times?
“It’s normal.”
-Yeah, just like my contractor… … .
Celon’s voice suddenly darkened.
Ban Yoo-won said, “Oops.”
I stepped on a landmine in an unexpected place.
He held the guy tightly in his hand, watching the cursed spell that covered the staff’s outer surface pulse like a blood vessel.
“Have you fully recovered your magic power?”
When you’re depressed, you need a change of mood.
Isn’t the stress reliever right in front of you?
―Hey, don’t touch the lady’s body without permission!
“I said not when. Let’s just shoot some magic or something big.”
―… … Okay, then let’s go?
Magic is something that you become more proficient at the more you use it.
Unlike before, where he had to concentrate for dozens of seconds even if he couldn’t do it, he was able to create a sphere of light, a light ball, by putting all of his and Celon’s mana into it in just a few seconds―.
He threw it towards the center of the hill where monsters were swarming.
-Keukkeuk?!
-Keeeeeeee!
The crustaceans aren’t stupid either, so they didn’t want to suffer the same fate as before, and a few of them rushed at the mine with a desperate resolve.
-Squeak!
-Kuhek!
Twelve raindrops that had been strutting across the battlefield struck the bodies of those men one after another, stopping their movements.
Meanwhile, the light sphere safely arrived at its destination, but before we could do anything, it exploded in a huge explosion, engulfing the entire area!
-Saaaaaaaaa
The noise made when the ball of light exploded was not noise, but rather an auditory hallucination that was felt by the ears as it consumed everything around it, instantly turning the area into a blank, silent state.
Ban Yu-won was moved as he watched the hill that had been teeming with monsters being swallowed up by light.
Of course, the amount of golden strings rising above it was even more impressive.
“It seems like the efficiency has increased compared to before?”
– This is proof that you have become accustomed to photon magic. You can now gather light and explode it more efficiently while consuming the same amount of mana.
It might not have been only that.
Ban Yu-won guessed that the curse technique had greatly strengthened the power of light because Celon’s emotions had been stimulated.
[The depth of photon magic has become 60.]
The concept of growing without having to absorb from others is valuable.
Ban Yu-won smiled with satisfaction at the magical growth and looked at the disaster he had created.
There was a slight pause, but when two bursts of light occurred in quick succession, the crustaceans were visibly staggering about, unable to come to their senses.
And then, even.
“How can this be…?”

“They’re running! They’re backing off!”
“I’ve never heard of monsters that caused a monster wave running away… …!”
“The Great Mage has completely driven away the monsters from the South Gate!”
“Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
As if the wave of infection had completely dissipated, the swarm of crustaceans was quickly dispersing!
“Great Mage! Great Mage!”
“The Great Mage will save this city!”
The soldiers who had climbed up the wall, prepared to die, cheered in unison when they encountered an unbelievable miracle.
Ban Yu-won felt embarrassed as the voices of the soldiers praising him grew louder.
“I didn’t plan on this… … Is Monster Wave really this easy?”
―The level of the wave that occurred here isn’t that high, but it’s also because I’m here to support you!
Anyway, there is no way to avoid something to brag about.
Still, Ban Yu-won was relieved to see that the guy’s mood had improved considerably after exploding one of the mines.
“Hmm… … I think things will be okay now.”
-I think so too.
He watched the battle situation for a while after that while recovering his magical power, but it didn’t seem like any more crustaceans would come to this place – the south gate.
But that doesn’t mean we can rest easy yet.
Not only is the fighting still going on at the other gates, but to the north, the mountain has turned into a golem and is running wild.
“Master Grand Mage?”
“You guard this place. I will assist my colleagues guarding the other gate.”
The soldiers look anxious as he tries to leave the South Gate.
But to be blunt, there were no more dangers left at Nammun, so Ban Yu-won calmly pushed away the soldiers clinging to him and moved on.
If there was a release at a time like this, I could quickly look around and wander around… … .
He opened his inventory for no reason, stroked the release that was in a metal egg state, and then closed his inventory.
This time, it doesn’t seem like there will be much of a crisis, so I don’t think the release will hatch.
‘Tikka, where do you think is the most dangerous?’
Ban Yu-won used resonance to convey his intention to Tike.
As for where that ticket is now, it was floating in the sky over the city, looking down on all four directions, taking pictures.
By combining the seven-point telescope and the telescope, the guy can focus and shoot in seven different places at the same time!
It was possible to take close-up shots of objects one kilometer away from a distance of one meter, and of course, it was also possible to precisely shoot the captured target.
As amazing as it is up to this point, Tike’s performance doesn’t end there.
‘I’m leaving the concept recovery all up to him… … .’
While observing and controlling all the deaths occurring in all directions, east, west, south, and north, Tyche was collecting all the concepts that occurred there.
That was also why the concept of the monsters that died when Ban Yu-won exploded the light bulb earlier was not absorbed by him but soared into the sky.
Tike is still sucking in concepts rising from all directions and temporarily storing them.
Observe the battlefield in real time and report any unusual events to Ban Yu-won.
He was performing his versatile position of automatically providing support fire when he found a dangerous person without any problems.
‘The Dongmun is rapidly losing monsters due to Eve’s rampage as well as Light, and Dokgoyeon in the north is about to destroy a mountain by himself… … So it’s better to help Ruchel. Got it?’
After receiving an accurate report from Tike, who was observing all directions, Ban Yu-won headed straight to the west gate.
Indeed, even before he reached the castle walls, the noise of the battlefield was loudly pounding in his ears.
“Shouldn’t we do something about that girl? It’s too dangerous!”
“But it’s true that thanks to that mercenary, no monsters have climbed over the walls yet… … Hey, keep shooting!”
“Whether it’s an arrow or a stone, throw it! Stop the monsters!”
Indeed, the intensity of the battle was different from that of the Nammun Gate, which Ban Yu-won had been fighting alone.
As he climbed up the wall without delay, the soldiers flinched and stepped back to the sides.
“Aren’t you in league with that mercenary?”
“Try to stop him. He’s been looking tough since a while ago, but he’s not even thinking of backing down and he’s still fighting… …!”
“I told you, you’re already infected! It’s too late, you can’t be saved now!”
The soldiers were chattering away at Ruchel, who was jumping out of the gate alone and fighting.
But to Ban Yu-won, Ruchel was in perfect condition.
-Khuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
The sight of Ruchel, transformed into a giant over 3 meters tall, sweeping the battlefield while waving his broom-like tail is truly overwhelming.
She was out of breath as she struggled to hold down the defensive line on her own while running wildly through the battlefield, but the infection wave did not seem to be affecting her.
‘What are the conditions for infection in the first place?’
―If your soul is contaminated, that is an infection. In order to prevent this, your soul must either be of an absurdly high rank like yours――or you must have made a master-servant contract like that beastman and have offered your soul to another being.
It seems like Celon keeps saying smart things today.
But… … What? Ban Yu-won couldn’t just ignore those words.
‘You gave your soul to me? Ruchel?’
-That’s what a master-servant contract is. You don’t think that girl signed the contract simply because she wanted to call you master, do you?
‘hmm…….’
Actually, I thought it was half my fault and the other half was because of that.
Actually, ever since I made a contract with her, I’ve felt a spiritual connection with her.
At the point where I was able to control the depths, I also began to think that this was not a simple contract… … .
‘I suddenly feel more burdened.’
―Isn’t it enough to just take good care of her? So help her. She’s having a hard time.
This is what I’ve been waiting for.
Ban Yu-won first shot twelve raindrops into the battlefield, then raised his staff and shot a beam of pure white light after them.
The speed is literally the speed of light, and the results are overwhelming.
The soldiers on the wall, as well as Ruchel, who had been swinging his claws frantically, were shocked and stopped moving at the sight of dozens and hundreds of crustaceans being caught in the light and dying without even being able to scream.
“Ugh… … .”
-are you okay?
The effect was outstanding, of course, but Ban Yu-won began to feel his head starting to feel numb.
Using magic doesn’t only consume mana.
Rather, the consumption of mental strength is the key.
The reason why Celon could act so smart every time he used magic was because she took care of almost half of the mental power that he had to exert every time he casted a spell.
“I guess the two consecutive shots from Gwanggu earlier were intense… … .”
-You knew it too. It’s bound to be difficult to fire two shots at full power.
“Okay, I’ll hold off on using magic until my mental powers recover… … .”
If you can’t use magic, just fight with a sword.
At that moment, Ban Yu-won was about to jump down from the castle wall, thinking about such Marie Antoinette-like thoughts.
Tike had been transmitting images to him through resonance.
What was reflected in Tike’s vision was what he saw with his own eyes… … When Ban Yu-won saw this, he stopped moving for a moment.
“These kids… … what the heck.”
A massive army of monsters surges from beneath the mountain.
The proportion of crustaceans among them was not that high, but it was estimated that they were the ones that Ban Yu-won had dispersed at the south gate earlier.
So what about the rest of the monsters? … Monsters with blue skin wearing human clothes or armor.
They were humans who were swept up in the wave of infection and turned into monsters!
“The victims inside the city… … would have been stopped.”
-I got it.
Celon said, showing off.
-We’re sending out extras from neighboring cities who lost their chance to appear.
“I wasn’t trying to expose you to modern culture.”
Ban Yu-won sighed.
If this happens, I have no choice but to use the secret weapon I made earlier!
