Chapter 115
Inside the limousine heading to the stadium.
Kim Seok-hyun explained what happened last night while driving.
“About 10:20 yesterday. The Bocchan has contacted you.”
Kim Seok-hyun manipulated his phone with one hand and showed Adela the text message Shin Ha-yul sent last night.
[Sender: Shin Ha-yul]
[In 20 minutes from now, Adela will cross the wall of enlightenment. So, even if Mana shows her strange movements, please do not rush into her room.]
After confirming the text, Adela’s eyes widened slightly.
transcend the barriers of enlightenment.
I was surprised to see that sentence.
“Shortly after receiving this text, mana actually swirled around the master’s room like a storm.”
There was no time to wonder what kind of random message it was.
In fact, strong mana gin and mana storms occurred, centering on Shin Ha-yul’s room, making the entire hotel site tremble.
“So, as the young master said, I set up guard so that no one could enter the room. I don’t know if Miss Adela has really crossed the wall of enlightenment, but if she’s real, no one will let her in.”
You must not interfere with the wizard who is breaking the wall of enlightenment.
It is forbidden to approach at all.
When someone approaches, the mana in the air changes and may affect the caster who is breaking down the wall of enlightenment.
Therefore, no one should approach the magician who is breaking down the wall of enlightenment.
This is an unwritten rule among wizards.
“I also sent all the team members who came to pick up Adela to prepare for the match.”
You can lose a person-to-person battle.
Even if you lose in a person-to-person match, Korea’s victory does not change.
However, if you don’t overcome the wall of realization now, you don’t know when you will cross it again.
Needless to say what was more important.
“Other team members also agreed with me about this. They said that the game was a big deal, but they were rather happy.”
Even though it seemed like he was going to lose by default in a big match called a match against people, no one regretted it.
Adela could have been jealous of the fact that she had crossed the wall of enlightenment and entered a new state, but no one harbored any feelings of wealth.
Everyone was laughing heartily, as if they were genuinely happy with Adela’s achievement.
“They are a much better team than I thought.”
“… … yes.”
Adela smiled softly.
Adela knows better than anyone that this Olympiad team is a really good team.
They are all proud team members.
“Congratulations. To think you broke another wall of enlightenment at that age.”
Kim Seok-hyun congratulated Adela’s achievement with an expression of half surprise and half excitement.
“If you’ll excuse me, may I ask what kind of realization wall you broke? Considering that you maintained mana circulation for 15 hours, it doesn’t seem like a trivial realization, by any chance… … .”
Did you succeed in weaving the 5th circle?
The words didn’t even come out of my mouth.
“Unfortunately, I didn’t weave a fifth loop.”
Currently, only four rings are rotating around Adela’s heart.
As for the fifth ring, its shape is nowhere to be found.
“It’s not the 5th circle. That’s too bad.”
Kim Seok-hyun gave a faint smile as if he was sorry.
However, Adela herself showed no sign of regret.
“But it’s not the 5th circle, but I think I had a realization comparable to that.”
“Enlightenment equivalent to Circle Up… … You mean?”
Mages get enlightenment many times, but the best of them is undoubtedly Circle Up.
There is no enlightenment equivalent to Circle Up.
By the way, did you get enlightenment equivalent to Circle Up?
“What is it?”
“hmm. It’s hard to explain in words. The efficiency of the circle, the speed of rotation, the time it takes for mana to spread to your fingertips… … . It feels like all the statuses have evolved one step at a time.”
Even with a short, light contemplation, he could tell that his body had changed.
If there is such a thing as a magician’s ability, it feels like that ability has risen one step at a time.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it has become almost a different body, although only four circles remain the same.
“It’s as if it’s not my body.”
“… … hmm.”
At Adela’s words, Kim Seok-hyun expressed disapproval. Because she couldn’t understand what Adela was talking about.
No, it would be more accurate to say that I can understand it, but I cannot understand it.
This is because I have never experienced a change like Adela’s, nor have I heard of it.
“Looks like you’ve come to a great realization.”
“yes.”
Adela smiled, feeling her circles and mana veins again.
Looking back, it was a huge change.
“That’s it. Congratulations once again.”
“thank you.”
Adela replied with a fresh smile. I didn’t know that the smile would go away at the mana circle that seemed to have evolved further.
‘I’m in debt again.’
I don’t know what the elixir I took last night was, but it was clear that it was an unusual elixir, judging from how much it had evolved.

How should I repay this favor?
Adela was engrossed in pleasant thought.
“ah.”
“Why is that?”
Then, suddenly, something came to mind.
“Well, what happened to Hayul?”
Even before leaving the last room, the figure of Shin Ha-yul, who continued to circulate mana, came to mind.
how the heck did that happen?
“I don’t know that either.”
Even Kim Seok-hyun does not know why Shin Ha-yul is in such a state.
When I entered the room this morning I heard Adela’s voice.
How surprised I was to see Shin Ha-yul doing mana circulation.
This side wants to ask why Shin Ha-yul is doing that.
“I thought that Miss Adela would know why the boy was cycling mana, but Miss Adela doesn’t seem to know.”
“… … yes. When I opened my eyes, I saw that mana was circulating.”
“hmm. okay.”
A tinge flowed from Kim Seok-hyun’s eyes.
“No, I should ask this first before asking this question. What happened last night?”
which has always been questionable.
Why did Adela break down the wall of enlightenment in Shin Ha-yul’s room?
And how did Shin Ha-yul know in advance that Adela would break down the wall of enlightenment?
This has always been a question.
“… … I took the elixir.”
“Is it an elixir?”
“yes. It’s the elixir Ha Yul gave me.”
it’s a leap
“Can I ask what kind of elixir it is?”
“I don’t know.”
“… … yes?”
Kim Seok-hyun’s eyes widened.
The person who took the elixir didn’t know what kind of elixir he took. Could that possibly be the case?
“Because I couldn’t tell you what kind of elixir it was… … . I just closed my eyes and opened my mouth.”
“What kind of bizarre thing is that… … .”
Seokhyun Kim was speechless.
“You managed to eat something like that.”
You don’t even know what kind of medicine it is, you just take it.
It’s great courage.
“It was scary, but it was Ha Yul. I believed it.”
A strong gaze filled with trust.
The corners of Kim Seok-hyun’s mouth lifted slightly as he met those eyes through the rearview mirror.
With that appearance, I could get a glimpse of how wonderful Shin Ha-yul’s usual behavior was.
Also great.
“Anyway, I took the mysterious elixir given by the young master and broke down the wall of enlightenment. Can I understand this?”
“yes.”
“Did you say you closed your eyes? How was the taste or texture?”
“Feel… … .”
Adela recalled the events of last night.
“The first feeling when I put it in my mouth was like stone. A cold, hard stone.”
“A stone.”
Information about the stone-like elixir flashed through Kim Seok-hyun’s mind like a panorama.
“Then it turned into a liquid after a while.”
“You mean it melted?”
“no. Rather than melting, I think it’s more accurate to say that it just turned into a liquid. It turned into a liquid really quickly and was absorbed into my body.”
“An elixir that instantly turns into liquid… … .”
Kim Seok-hyun’s eyes slowly widened.
something came to mind
“taste. How did it taste?”
“It didn’t taste like anything.”
“… … .”
Seokhyun Kim was speechless.
The eyes are wide open, the mouth is half open, and the pupils are trembling slightly.
It was obvious that anyone could see that he was embarrassed.
“haha.”
With that expression, he burst into laughter.
“I see, it’s worth saying that I can’t show you.”
“Do you know what the elixir is?”
“yes.”
Kim Seok-hyun straightened his expression and laughed again.
“Do you know ‘Tears of the Earth’?”
“Tears of the Earth?”
Adela replied with an expression that she had never heard of.
“You probably don’t know. It’s an elixir that has only been released once on the market.”
“What elixir is it?”
“hmm. To put it simply, it is such an expensive elixir that you will never be able to obtain it even if you rob all the fortunes of the mystics.”
“… … yes?”
Adela’s eyes widened to the size of a lantern.
* * *
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a panoramic view of my room, which looked like a ruin.
“… … I’m sorry to the person who will clean it up.”
I should give you something good for your body later.
I vowed to do so and got up from my seat.
Then he headed straight for the window.
The sun was half hidden, and the setting sun fell.
At a glance, it seemed like it was past 6 o’clock.
“Me, how many hours have I been like this?”
Inside the ruined room, I searched for what appeared to be a clock.
It was completely broken and had a terrible appearance, but fortunately the second hand was working normally.
‘6:47.’
As expected, it was past 6pm.
‘I’ve been doing mana circulation for a long time.’
Last night, it was around 10:37 when Adela started to cycle mana in a trance.
Immediately after that, I also performed mana circulation.
So let’s say it started at roughly 10:40, and it’s 18:47 now.
’20 hours?’
It means that mana circulation was conducted for over 20 hours.
“Twenty hours… … .”
Considering that an ordinary wizard would fall into a state of exhaustion in about 30 minutes of mana circulation, it was a really ridiculous amount of time.
But well, the bitenor style is extraordinary. It’s something I knew well.
This is not surprising.
‘Rather than that, how did Adela’s game go?’
Adela’s match was 4:10.
Even if the game is over, it would have been a long time ago.
Had Adela won the victory safely?
No, did he arrive at the stadium before 4:00?
You’d think it would have worked out, but you never know.
I’ll call and ask.
I thought so and put my hand in my pocket.
“ah.”
Unfortunately, the phone was not in my pocket.
I remembered that I had left it on the bed after contacting Adela yesterday.
that means that.
‘Should I find it in this mess?’
That means my smartphone is stuck somewhere in these ruins.
If you want to call someone, you have to find it.
‘I should have put it in the magic safe in advance.’
I put the other valuables in the magic safe beforehand. I hadn’t even thought about the smartphone.
It is my mistake.
‘In this case, I’d rather go to the lobby and borrow a phone.’
Finding my phone in this mess is not an easy task.
The phone you have to find anyway, you should be able to find it in advance, but that’s something you can do later.
It is not too late to go to the lobby and borrow a phone to find the phone after receiving the current situation.
I thought so and walked towards the door.
I opened the door while moderately avoiding the wreckage of broken tables, chairs, and picture frames.
And I was surprised at the same time as I went out into the hallway.
“… … father?”
My father was sitting in front of my room reading a book.
I’m alone in an empty hallway. It’s like guarding my room.
“Why is my father here… … ?”
My father, who had devoted himself to reading despite my calling, closed the book and looked at me at my question.
“Because Seokhyun was away. instead.”
“That means… … .”
In other words, since Uncle Seok-hyeon was away, my father was standing guard for me instead.
“why? Were you so surprised that I stood by your guard?”
I wonder if it was quite funny in my expression. My father laughed with an expression that the world was fun.
“What? Because it’s a promise to protect you until the Olympiad is over. I did this to keep that promise.”
My father got up and came to me.
Then he scanned my body from head to toe with eyes that said the world was fun.
“okay. How come you completely destroyed the wall of enlightenment?”
eyes full of anticipation.
The look in his eyes clearly knew what had happened to me and what had happened to my body.
I answered while staring straight into my father’s eyes.
“yes.”
I smiled confidently as I felt the fifth ring, the ‘circle of truth’, circling my body.
“Totally shattered it.”
