Admission is a waste of time (369)
Lesson 72. Babel Tower Isolation Operation – 4
The commotion caused by the mousetrap certainly made subsequent operations easier.
In fact, it wasn’t at the level where people would make a fuss about the destruction of a dimension due to a monster wave in a Class A dimension, but it was still a disaster that would destroy a country or at least a city.
The more successful a dimension was, the more it had to show interest in mousetraps for the sake of safety, and of course, there were many who argued that it was absurd to block the connection with Union Net for that reason―― Nevertheless, it was enough to cause a brief disturbance and buy time for Ban Yu-won and his party to move.
“success!”
“This is the end of it all!”
Ban Yu-won raised his voice and responded to Luishia’s out-of-breath shout as she fought against the Imperial Knights, the most elite of the A-2 dimension.
“We’ve done everything we can do! Now we just have to give them shit and retreat!”
“Okay, senior! Go fu*k yourself!”
Louisa, a junior who listens well to her senior’s words, followed him, throwing candy with both hands at those she had been dealing with so far.
“Ban Yu-won――! How long do you think you can commit such tyranny by trusting the ten families――!”
“Let’s wait and see what happens when this ridiculous barrier you created breaks!”
“If you succeed in breaking it into a pretty star shape, I will give you a gift――.”
No matter how it ends, there will be no need to worry about these few dimensions.
Ban Yu-won fed them candy together with Louisa, then immediately called for Lilith and entered the dimensional wall.
“Release, what about the rest of you?”
―There is only one A-class dimension left. You know? The A-4 dimension.
“aha.”
Lilith was in charge of transporting all members working on the dimensional barrier in real time by utilizing her ability to create clones of herself, so she could share the situation immediately even without a mirror.
And the A-4 dimension is… … Diavolo, which is ruled by the Demon King, the father of the former Chairman Shati.
“That person obviously can’t be persuaded with words… … But calling my father over there would be a waste of manpower.”
Ban Yu-won sighed and opened the communication with Shati.
Ban Yu-won said to Shati, who was sticking her face out with a smile as if she had been waiting for him, feeling somewhat annoyed.
“Can you do it, sir?”
―Ah, this is the moment I’ve been waiting for. I’m writing a leave of absence letter. Do you want to take a look? For now, the title is ‘Going to Inherit the Throne’…
“Is there any chance of getting fired as soon as you become a professor?”
-What is the person who put other people’s jobs in jeopardy saying?
Shati, who had been spitting out the words in a tone of absurdity, suddenly smiled and added.
―That kid will probably behave a little better if he gets a one-on-one fight with me. Don’t worry, he’s the one who got promoted to professor at the academy.
“Make sure to refresh your buffs before you go.”
-If the Union remains, I’ll see you again later at the Union. Without Mira knowing!
Chatty ended the call with a charming wink and a hand kiss.
Louisa, who was sitting next to him, narrowed her eyes and looked at him.
“Senior, could it be that person too… … ?”
“No, it’s not Senior Shati.”
It’s been a few months since Shati graduated, but Ban Yu-won himself laughed at the expression “senior” that still comes out of his mouth. However, he shrugged his shoulders and explained in response to Louisa’s gaze that couldn’t hide her suspicion.
“That… … He doesn’t want to date me openly, so he wants to meet me secretly. He wants to reveal the truth to Mira, who is feeling safe, and tease her a lot.”
“You really are a dirty person! How dare you say things like that and still be friends with Professor Mira… …!”
“They are a species that has specialized in teasing and harassing others since their very existence. Their way of thinking is different from ours.”
Among the Evil Ones, Shati is the best, so it would be better for the future of the universe if she takes the upper hand… … .
“So, you’re going to meet? Without Professor Mira knowing?”
“No, never.”
Ban Yu-won responded firmly.
“It’s just stupid to end a war and then start a new one. And honestly, I don’t like that senior that much.”
“… … About that matter, senior.”
It was at that moment that Louisa carefully closed the gap between them and spoke in a slightly hushed voice.
[It’s started, Master!]
Louisa clicked her tongue openly at the report of the release that came flying in at an opportune time.
The multiple screens that the release brought up were videos broadcast from the official channels of the teenage families representing each S-class dimension, and it was surprising that they were all heads of families or people of similar rank.
Prominence’s head of household, Ban Yumi.
Melodia’s head priest, Aire.
The head of the Hecate family and her daughter, Clio Hecate.
The daughter of the former head of the family and the swordsman who is acting as the head of the Clarent family.
The head of the Selene family, and Yumina, the last descendant of the destroyed Juventa and also Selene’s daughter.
Of course, there was no sign of Freedwen and Fides, who had recently been ‘integrated’ with the tower, Amor, who was at odds with them… … and Ortima.
It was decided to pass it off as a joke that the Fairy Queen of Fairy Tail, the most prosperous dimension among the A-class dimensions, was sneaking in to fill their empty spot.
“It’s really begun… … .”
In a massive operation that lasted several weeks, they succeeded in severing the Tower of Babel’s connection to all other dimensions—almost all of them.
Naturally, the activities of the constellations were greatly reduced, they could not access Union Net, and they could not receive the benefits of the system.
A miracle that Ban Yu-won, a descendant of the Tower of Babel, accomplished in just a few years after deciding to destroy the Tower of Babel.
It would have been a difficult task had it not led to an alliance of teenage families.
And now, the teenage clans who had allied with him were all holding high the artifacts imbued with the powers that Ban Yuan had given them, in an effort to isolate their dimension from the Union Net.
“It’s a really unfamiliar sight. It’s probably the first time since the term ‘teenage family’ became established.”
[There’s only half left, though.]
“I wonder what Lucien Ortima is doing.”
Shati wasn’t too worried, but Lucain was different.
He confidently left for the Catius dimension, but there has been no contact since.

At this rate, it seemed like we would never be able to close the Ketius dimension and would end up entering the Tower of Babel.
“It’s okay, just go ahead.”
However, Luisha, who was Lucien’s cousin and the future successor to the Ketius dimension, urged him with a calm expression.
“Neither my brother nor my lord are foolish people. If you do not accept my senior’s barrier, I will come up with a plan.”
“I really can’t understand the confidence of the Ortima family.”
[Enter the Union!]
At around the same time that the spaceship carrying the party entered the Union, each family also activated a barrier artifact containing the power of the Banyuwon.
Prominence, Melodia, Hecate, Clarent, Selene, and of course Fairy Tail.
As I whistled briefly at the screen that was going black as the connection with Union Net was disconnected one after another, the Union scenery came into view.
And even the appearance of the Earth visible in a corner of the sky.
“… … Is it really true that the connection was lost?”
“Strictly speaking, it should be said that it is the work of completely separating what was originally one star.”
It doesn’t really matter anymore whether the Union was part of the Earth or the Earth was part of the Union.
Ban Yu-won led the release and approached the floating island floating in the Union sky.
Before I knew it, I could see that a huge barrier had been formed around the entire floating island.
There was something that all the academy students came out and looked up at.
Surprisingly, it was a life-size human doll!
“No way… … President?”
-You are no longer a master.
The strong characteristic of a life-sized doll, the overwhelming momentum that bloomed from it―― Above all, it felt familiar and even friendly, so I spoke to it with a sense of hope, and as expected, I received a response.
The president, who had only shown himself as a doll for the three years he had known her, was appearing as a doll even at this moment when Ban Yu-won was about to see the end of the tower.
Ban Yu-won, who was a little tired of it, answered the president with his true feelings in a somewhat bitter voice.
“It’s time for me to become the master.”
– That’s a great mindset. Early graduation might be possible.
Ban Yu-won also ended up laughing at the president’s joke.
At that time, he discovered a giant eye floating in the center of the Union barrier and thought that it might be the president’s body, but it didn’t seem to be that either.
No, wait a minute. Could this be… … .
“The entire island… … This floating island.”
Only after seeing the president appear as a life-size doll that could fully display his powers, rather than a small doll, was Ban Yu-won able to barely get a feel for his true identity.
This allows us to take a closer look at where his roots lead.
“Really, this is ridiculous.”
-Are you afraid of the power of your predecessors?
“No, that’s not it. I just thought it must have been hard.”
The president didn’t laugh this time.
While he and the president were facing off, Ban Yu-won’s comrades were breaking through the dimensional wall and joining one by one.
Now that we have isolated the Tower of Babel from almost all dimensions except for a very few, what remains is… …the Tower of Babel.
“after…….”
But if, as Ban Yu-won thought, the president’s body was this ‘entire floating island’.
No matter how much his abilities have grown.
No matter how great your abilities may be,
You may be able to destroy the entire island, but you cannot approach the Tower of Babel without his permission.
“Should we fight?”
-Us. Why?
However, the president, who was determined to speak, asked Ban Yu-won a question in a tone that showed he did not understand.
-You realized the truth on Earth. You realized that you shouldn’t just tear down the tower.
“Yes, that’s why I was researching this and that and trying to cut off the hands and feet of the power of the Tower of Babel.”
―And now you are revealing the true form of the tower and trying to challenge it.
“that’s right.”
When I thought that if I were to collapse the tower, something big could happen, and when I could never confirm the ultimate purpose of the tower, I realized anew how big a role the Union Net formed in the process was playing across all dimensions.
Instead of shutting down all existing operations, Ban Yu-won came up with an idea.
If the tower can stop the destruction of other dimensions.
If we block off all the passages leading to the outside, leaving only one tower.
Wouldn’t the top have no choice but to reveal the innermost part of itself to the challenger?
If you get there, wouldn’t it be possible to say that you have truly conquered the tower?
You shouldn’t be an ordinary climber who takes on the challenge without knowing the truth.
Even if you try to enjoy the benefits of the tower through its connection to the Earth and reign as its administrator, you will still be unable to reach the true form of the tower.
But if we push the tower so hard that it has no choice but to reveal all of its inner self, wouldn’t we eventually be able to observe the tower’s origins?
‘And if I can get there, I can definitely topple the tower with my power.’
Such strong conviction has led Ban Yu-won to this day.
Surprisingly, the president did not seem too angry and seemed to agree with it.
―This is clearly not what your ancestors wanted, and it is not the result I, who inherited their legacy, hope for either. However.
“but?”
―The tower will still remain, and you will change it with talents that surpass those of your predecessors. I am the president of Union Academy, who guides those who challenge the tower――There is no reason for me to stop you.
“……really?”
-That’s right. You chose the correct answer.
Of course, no one inside the tower would think that way――the president added with a laugh.
Ban Yu-won finally realized what the final ordeal awaited him.
-Go, go and rule the tower as you wish.
The president opened the barrier.
If they were going to let them in so easily, the question remained as to why they had even opened the barrier… … But Ban Yu-won obediently led his team members into the barrier.
―To the constellations held captive in the tower… … .
The moment he passed by, the president opened his mouth again and said something.
-No, no. … … Go.
I ended up closing my mouth again.
When Ban Yu-won passed by, silently patting the president on the shoulder, his eyes widened slightly for a moment… … but soon he let out a faint laugh.
The group that entered the floating island felt the gazes of the students outside the academy looking up at them, and snickered, but soon realized why they were all outside.
“The tower has completely turned black?!”
“I think they’re trying to block us from entering, it’s like they’re trying to create a monster!”
“Oh my, I was wondering why the teacher let us in at once.”
Yumina smiled bitterly and lifted her staff as a thick black fog enveloped the entire tower, as if a wave of infection had occurred.
“I guess we’ll really have to deal with the tower outside. Yuwon, hurry up and finish this before something big happens. Okay?”
“Okay, I understand.”
While the Rebellion team quickly gathered together, the rest of the group, including Yumina, surrounded the Tower of Babel from the front, which seemed ready to spit out monsters at any moment.
“Students, help out too! Those who are capable, don’t just wait around and see what happens, but step up!”
The sight was truly spectacular, as even the students who had been wandering around, unable to make sense of Mira’s loud voice, began to run out in droves, and the determined professors also began to move along.
Ban Yu-won smiled brightly as he led the group towards the tower.
“Now I feel like it’s the final chapter.”
“Sishit.”
As they approached, the tower began to make waves in earnest.
A giant minotaur appeared blocking the main entrance of the tower, and Ban Yu-won reached out his hand as he howled, but before he could, someone stepped forward and cut the minotaur apart from head to groin.
It was Kang Eun-young.
“Oh, Mom.”
“son.”
Kang Eun-young spoke in a soft but firm tone.
“Go save my husband. Okay?”
“yes.”
With the help of his colleagues, Rebellion entered the tower after overcoming countless obstacles.
The tower went berserk, and everyone on the floating island had to stop it, whether they liked it or not.
The president, who had been looking down at it and smiling bitterly, turned his huge eyes to look at the dimensional wall again.
The dimensional wall opened and a great army poured out as if they had been waiting for this moment.
-Exodus’s power… …is still hidden?
Those who wanted to bring down the tower.
Those who knew the method.
The one who used such people.
-Ortima… …Did you really kill your son?
To the president’s quietly mumbling words, there was a voice responding from above.
-You’re a son. You can have another one like that.
The hidden master of the dimensional pirate Exodus.
S-1 Dimension Amor has now run away with his tail between his legs, and he is now the undisputed strongest player in the teenage dimension.
The man who is the father of Lucien Ortima and the head of the Ortima family has finally appeared in the Union for the first time.
-After I became a god.
