Chapter 122
the next morning.
The interpersonal final, an hour before Adela’s match begins.
I received an unexpected call.
[Sender: Secretary Jeong Su-ah]
[The blue mage tower has awakened.]
It was a call that the blue mage tower owner, who had been in a coma for a long time, had opened his eyes.
As soon as I got the call, I went straight to the hospital.
After taking a limousine for about 50 minutes, we arrived at the hospital where Kim Kang-in is being hospitalized.
I called secretary Jeong Soo-ah from the lobby, followed the proper procedures, and entered the intensive care unit where Kim Kang-in was being treated.
“hmm. Can I just say it’s been a while?”
Starting with an oxygen supply, Kim Kang-in has all sorts of equipment on his body.
He greeted me with his trademark refreshing smile.
“yes. long time no see.”
“haha. It’s a strange feeling. From my point of view, it hasn’t been long.”
He said that and smiled bitterly.
I’ve been in a coma ever since the hotel raid. It was natural that it didn’t feel like it had been a long time.
“How are you feeling?”
“it’s okay. It’s good enough to leave the hospital right away.”
“… … .”
I silently scanned Kangin Kim’s entire body.
To be precise, it was to look at all kinds of medical devices Kim Kang-in was wearing.
“These are just inspection devices. There is nothing wrong with your body.”
“Is that right?”
I asked secretary Su-ah, who was making a strange expression next to me.
“no. It’s a lie. They said it would take at least another 15 days to fully recover.”
Secretary Jeong Soo-ah replied with cold eyes.
“Sua, in that case, just say it’s okay.”
“Why would you tell a lie that would get caught anyway? There is nothing more nuisance than lying to someone who is sick and saying they are fine.”
Kangin Kim was at a loss for words at the firm words of secretary Jeong Suah.
A look that has nothing to refute.
“Kuhm.”
Kim Kang-in cleared his throat with an embarrassed expression on his face.
“Oh yeah. Sua. Could you please raise the bed for me?”
“yes. All right.”
Secretary Sua raised the angle of the bed using the control terminal provided next to the bed.
Like an ergonomic magic bed where the structure of the bed changes according to the individual’s body shape, not only the angle changes, but the structure of the bed itself has also changed.
“Whoa. thank you.”
Kim Kang-in, whose expression looked comfortable at first glance, expressed his gratitude to Soo-ah.
“It was nothing.”
Sua stepped back and took a seat next to me.
“Ah, by the way, can I visit the hospital at this time? Miss Adela’s game starts in seven minutes, right?”
“it’s okay. It’s the final, so you can watch it here with Kim Kang-in.”
I’m sorry for Adela, but a visit to the hospital took precedence over cheering for the game.
He is the person who has helped me the most in getting me to this point.
It is said that such a person woke up from a hospital bed after 10 days.
“You could have come after the game.”
Kim Kang-in smiled bitterly. It seems burdensome that he prioritized his visit to the hospital rather than cheering for the finals.
“I don’t know if this is why I’m being resentful of Miss Adela. It’s like I took the team leader before the most important game… … .”
“I asked Adela for permission in advance, so you don’t have to worry about that. It’s not like that in the first place.”
“but. Miss Adela is not the type to keep things like that to heart.”
Kim Kang-in’s gaze slipped back to secretary Jeong Soo-ah.
“… … Why are you looking at me and talking?”
Secretary Jeong Soo-ah’s gaze cooled.
Kim Kang-in was surprised and turned his gaze away.
“Hmm. I heard more than that. You are on the verge of breaking a new record.”
“yes. I was lucky.”
“Can you break a new record just by being lucky? All of them are Ha Yul’s skills.”
Kim Kang-in’s two eyes radiate pride and pride.
He could be jealous, but he didn’t feel any of that.
All I can feel is the emotions that come from good feelings such as joy and pleasure.
“This, if I hadn’t accepted Ha Yul’s proposal two months ago, I would have really regretted it.”
As the main sponsor of the Korean team, it was natural to be happy about the Korean team’s high-altitude march.
“One person was terribly against it. If I had accepted those words at that time, I would have been in big trouble.”
Kim Kang-in stares at secretary Jeong Soo-ah with a smirk.
I could tell from that gaze.
It was clear that the one who opposed the sponsorship of the Olympiad to the end was Jung Soo-ah.

Secretary Sua’s expression cooled once again.
“… … yes. I haven’t been able to count the wisdom of the wise Lord of the Tower.”
Then, with a blunt expression, he said:
“From now on, I will completely follow the advice of the wise Mage Tower Lord. I have to keep my subjective opinions inside.”
“… … uh?”
At those words, Kim Kang-in was taken aback.
This is an unexpected look.
“Soo, is it Sua? Still, I have to give my opinion… … .”
“What do you do? Even after listening to it every day, the Master of the Magic Tower does as he pleases.”
A blunt poker face.
The emotion of sadness is buried in the hard face that shouldn’t show any emotion.
I could tell just by looking at it.
pouted
“I will remain just a paperwork machine. If you think about it, until now, it was like a machine specialized in paper processing. It’s not that different.”
“No, Sua. Just listen to me for a moment.”
“Then I have some unfinished paperwork, so I’ll go first. If there is anything you want to do, call me again.”
“Sua!”
Secretary Jeong Soo-ah turned around calmly and left the hospital room.
Kim Kang-in stares at the door of the hospital room where secretary Jeong Soo-ah has disappeared with a puzzled expression.
“You must have suffered a lot for ten days, but if you play such a prank there… … .”
“Okay.”
As a prank specialist, this time it was 100% Kim Kang-in’s fault.
It is a law that you have to choose the time and place to play a joke.
“I was just trying to lighten the mood a bit… … .”
Kim Kang-in was about to say something, but sighed heavily.
“after. I guess I made a mistake. I must apologize.”
“yes. It’s just a slight pout, so it’ll be resolved soon.”
“yes.”
Kim Kang-in laughed bitterly again.
There was a strange silence in the hospital room.
Woo-woo-!
At that moment, my phone vibrated.
[alarm]
[AM 11:29]
The alarm set in advance to watch the game went off.
“There are many things I want to say. Can I do it after watching the final first?”
“ah. It was an alarm. yes. of course. It is also a game I am looking forward to.”
Kangin Kim’s eyes glittered with anticipation.
“Then I will switch to hologram mode and send it out.”
“You don’t have to use your phone. You can turn off the TV through that terminal.”
“ah. yes. All right.”
I put the phone back in my pocket and headed towards the terminal device that secretary Su-ah was operating earlier.
Among the complex buttons, there was an item called TV.
When I pressed the button, a hologram screen popped up in the middle of the hospital room.
―Now, the countdown begins!
At the same time as the video was broadcast, the commentator’s excited voice resonated.
“Perfect timing.”
Kim Kang-in focused on the screen with sharp eyes.
[10, 9, 8]
The countdown started, and Adela and Dahlia’s faces were broadcast on the screen.
“What do you think the odds of winning are?”
A fast-decreasing count.
Mana flooding the arena.
“Kim Kang-in, what percentage are you watching?”
[6, 5, 4]
The images of the two women were sent out on the screen in parallel, and the tension increased.
“well. When judged objectively, it’s about 30%.”
“You hit it very high.”
“Considering the strategy Ha Yul had prepared, I just wondered if it would be about 30%. Even if there is a circle difference.”
“You rate my strategy quite high.”
“sure. I have seen it so far.”
[3, 2, 1]
Blue flames shook the arena, and moonlight coiled down.
The two women were in perfect combat readiness.
“How about this? Is it correct?”
“no. Incorrect answer.”
[Start!]
Beep-!
At the same time as the alarm bell announcing the start of the match, two people fired magic at the same time.
A clash of blue flames and moonlight.
Everyone must be expecting Moonlight’s defeat.
“Adela’s win rate, which we concluded on our own… … .”
However, contrary to everyone’s expectations, it was Adela’s moonlight, not Dahlia’s blue flame, that overwhelms.
“100%.”
As the moonlight judges everything, it quickly swallows the blue flame.
Cheers resounded from the audience at the dreamy and fantastic sight.
“… … Moonlight?”
Kangin Kim muttered with his eyes wide open. She now looks like she wonders what she saw.
“How could Miss Adela see the moonlight… … .”
moonlight.
Magic corresponding to the 5th circle among the moon attribute magic that the Shinbiwi family is proud of.
“Miss Adela… … Are you saying you’ve reached the 5th circle?”
“yes.”
A huge torrent of moonlight emitted by the moonlight. Even in broad daylight, the strange scenery seems to be night.
Looking at the scene, I answered quietly.
“Adela broke down the wall of realization yesterday and became a 5th circle user.”
“… … oh my god.”
After taking a quick glance at Kim Kang-in’s side face, who was completely mesmerized, I focused my eyes on the screen again.
—Adela Stewart! Overwhelm!
-blue! It’s blue!
Only the excited voices of the narrator and caster resonated in the hospital room.
* * *
Meanwhile, that time Korea.
Shin Ji-han’s room.
―Korea won the championship! Adela Stewart! The unexpected thing really happened!
―Every game is truly a legend!
Shin Ji-han was sitting alone on the sofa watching TV.
just, just, just right.
The sound of Shin Ji-han’s index finger tapping the side of the chair resonated rhythmically.
It’s fast and rough, as if showing his anxious psychology.
―Now, a new record is just around the corner!
-ah. I feel like I’m all trembling!
A commentator and a caster who make a fuss with each other and continue tiki-taka.
Looking at the two, Shin Ji-han frowned.
At the same time, he threw the glass he was holding in his hand against the wall.
bang! Clink!
A hard liquor glass hit the wall, and the sound of it being shattered resounded loudly.
‘f*ck.’
Shin Ji-han cursed inwardly.
I don’t like this situation very much.
I don’t like this situation very, very much right now when everyone is praising Shin Ha-yul.
Whoops, whoops!
Shin Ji-han’s phone on the table trembled violently.
five times in a row.
Judging from the letter shape appearing on the screen, it must have been a message.
Shin Ji-han nervously lifted the phone.
[Caller: Shin Se-ah]
[My brother is in trouble. The majority of the elders are on the side of Ha Yul.]
The first text was from Shin Se-ah.
Shin Ji-han, who checked the text expressionlessly, checked the next text right away without replying.
[Caller: Kang Ha-ung]
[young master. Elders… … .]
[Caller: Kim Min-hoon]
[Currently, within the faction… … ]
All five letters were slightly different in words, but they were all the same.
Many of the elders and members of the family are showing a movement to support Shin Ha-yul.
It was like this.
Whoops, whoops!
Even while checking the text, other texts came incessantly.
The content was all the same.
All support is focused on Shin Ha-yul.
“Shin Ha-yul, Shin Ha-yul, Shin Ha-yul!!”
Even the phone Shin Ji-han was holding was thrown against the wall.
The phone hit the wall and shattered.
“f*ck. f*ck. f*ck… … !”
Shin Ji-han repeated the curse and chewed his lips carefully.
“I don’t like it. from one to ten. I don’t like everything.”
I was annoyed by my subordinates who kept texting me and Shin Se-ah.
The elders who suddenly changed their minds had a murderous intent.
In spite of Shin Ji-han’s continued appeal, the neutral forces who did not change their mind until the end and remained neutral were angry at Shin Ha-yul.
“Shin Ha-yul, Shin Ha-yul!”
I wanted to kill Shin Ha-yul.
It’s natural, it’s my position, I want to get rid of everything and deal with it somehow.
“These black mage tower bastards… … How much money did I give you… … .”
And above all, sincere intent to kill soared towards the black mage tower that could not properly handle an 18-year-old kid.
“what? I’m busy right now, so are you waiting? Shin Ha-yul will take care of it somehow, so be patient?”
Bastards who have already failed three times, wait for someone.
A crackling sound could be heard between Shin Ji-han’s molars.
‘Incompetent bastards. It was wrong for me to trust them from the start.’
Trust in the Black Mage Tower has long since disappeared.
I can’t wait like this any longer.
‘I have to deal with it myself.’
I tried to refrain from moving directly in order to prepare for the odds, but now that the situation is like this, I can’t help it.
Even if it is a bit overbearing, I have no choice but to move directly.
‘I’m glad I prepared in advance.’
Shin Ji-han left the room and picked up the phone in the living room.
Then, she inputs Shin Se-ah’s number and dials the number.
-hello? brother? Where are you now… … .
“Sea.”
Then, she cut off the embarrassed Shin Se-ah’s voice and said this in a heavy voice.
“That’s what my brother asked for. Are you done?”
Only this time will put an end to this infernal evil.
One of them will die this time.
‘Seanna, Ha Yul. One of them.’
Shin Ji-han’s eyes shone darkly with soggy determination.
