Chapter 149
“I saw what happened, so we’ll go. Other guests will come soon. See you again.”
“… … hi.”
After those words, Shin Ji-han and Se-ah’s sister rose from their seats.
Then he turned around and walked out of the room.
“… … .”
While going outside, Se-ah’s older sister turned around slightly.
Standing at an angle, looking at me with one eye.
Se Ah’s half-seen expression looked very sad.
‘… … why?’
It was an inexplicable expression.
I don’t know if he clicked his tongue or glared at me with an expression of disapproval.
Sending sad, sorrowful eyes
It wasn’t an expression that Se-ah’s sister would surely hate me for.
‘Why do you look like that… … .’
I am having so much doubt.
Sister Seah pointed down with her gaze.
What does that gaze mean?
“Then, Ha Yul. See you again while you’re in America. My brother knows a lot of good restaurants here.”
At the same time Shin Ji-han opened the door and turned his head, Se-ah’s gaze returned.
It’s as if he’s avoiding Shin Ji-han’s eyes.
Seeing that, my doubts grew even more.
“Ha Yul-ah?”
“ah. sorry. My head is blank… … . yes. It’s good. We look forward to hearing from you next time.”
I quickly responded to Shin Ji-han’s words.
I don’t know why Se-ah is doing that, but it would be right to avoid Shin Ji-han’s suspicions.
“okay. I’ll contact you.”
Shin Ji-han waved his hand with a final smile and disappeared outside.
Se-ah’s older sister also followed Shin Ji-han’s footsteps.
After the two disappeared. Silence fell in the hospital room.
‘… … under?’
I immediately thought about what older sister Se-ah’s gaze meant.
what the heck does that mean?
‘Judging by the fact that she avoided Shin Ji-han’s gaze, there is a high probability that her gaze earlier was a signal only for me.’
Then, what the gaze pointing down indicates… … .
‘Look down.’
I forcibly moved my body, which still hurts, and touched the bottom of the bed.
Right in front of where Se-ah was sitting.
If my predictions are correct, obviously… … .
‘there is.’
I felt the paper’s unique, smooth feeling on my fingertips.
I can feel the sense of mana.
I immediately took out the paper and unfolded it.
[There is something I want to tell you about Jihan oppa. If you’re interested in listening, just leave a text to this number after you’re discharged. It’s my secret line that Jihan oppa doesn’t even know about.]
[This is really important. You may not want to hear a story like me. Please. Trust me just once.]
[Then I’ll wait for you to contact me.]
“… … what is this?”
My head stiffened at the unexpected content.
and that moment.
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
“Patient Ha Yul! You woke up… … !”
“young master!”
The door to the hospital room opens, a nurse and a doctor. And Mr. Seokhyun came inside.
I looked at the three of them, crumpled the note properly, and erased it with mana.
‘957-55896-A7545.’
Repeating the secret line number left by Se-ah.
* * *
After that.
After a light physical examination.
It was determined that there were no major abnormalities in the body.
Oh, it wasn’t a judgment that there was no abnormality at all.
Because of overdoing it, the mana circle in my body is running out of control or something.
I said it was a level that wouldn’t be strange if the circle exploded right away.
It’s quiet now, but this is a bomb that doesn’t know when it will explode, and because of this, he said that he had to watch the progress a little longer.
With a rather serious expression, he even said that he might need to prepare his mind.
‘… … It’s not like that.’
However, this was something the doctor could say because he did not know the idiosyncrasies of my circle.
The circle inside my body is not an ordinary mana circle, but an infinity circle.

Since the vastness of mana is significantly different from the existing mana circle, the only test result was that it was running out of control.
To be more precise, the overload of the Infinity Circle caused a problem with the control, resulting in a runaway mana graph.
Actually, I don’t have any major problems with my body.
‘The external wounds inflicted by the three primary color tiger’s breath were almost completely cured after sleeping for two days.’
As far as external injuries are concerned, it can be treated in two days.
The reason why my body hurts right now is because of the aftereffects of overuse of mana, not because I got hurt somewhere.
Honestly, it would be much quicker to go back and wear Master’s robe than to be hospitalized like this here.
… … Of course, there’s no way to explain this one by one, so you’ll have to stay here for at least two days.
‘By the time the Infinity Circle stabilizes, I’ll let you go.’
Let’s just think about taking a good rest for a couple of days. I organized my thoughts like that.
‘by the way… … What the hell happened?’
Scared to organize my thoughts, new questions invaded my head.
The full picture of this monster rampage situation.
I was very curious about that.
smart-!
Then, someone knocked on the door of the hospital room.
Doctors and nurses won’t bother knocking.
Is it a sick visit?
It seems highly likely.
He must have come to visit the hospital after hearing the news that the examination was over.
‘Are they seniors?’
Or, there is a possibility that it is Kim Kang-in or his father.
Whatever it was, it worked just fine.
I wanted to hear a little more about the situation.
“Come on in.”
With my answer, the door to the hospital room opened.
And the moment two women appeared beyond the door, my eyes widened to the size of a lantern.
It was a completely unexpected person who came to visit the hospital.
“Are you going in?”
Informal name ‘Hound’
Charles, the leader of the official name ‘Longinus’.
“Excuse me.”
And Sophia Annechefri, Charles’s secret boss.
“What kind of expression is that? why? Didn’t you think we’d come?”
Charles smiled as he closed the hospital room door.
“… … yes.”
who could have predicted
“Do it. what. You couldn’t have expected it.”
Charles chuckled and sat down in front of me.
After that, Sophia-sama also moved and sat next to Charles.
“… … Didn’t I say that the relationship between the two of you should be hidden?”
“that’s right. it is a secret.”
Charles answered indifferently.
“But can I come to the hospital with you openly like this?”
“You didn’t come here? That we came here together, your father doesn’t know. Do you still know that you are being tested?”
“… … ah.”
haha If you’re in a position like Sophia-sama’s, coming to the hospital room secretly like this would be nothing.
“Well, I can’t stay that long, though.”
If the tail is long, it is stepped on.
Unless you’ve recruited all the people involved in this hospital, if the story gets too long, someone will inevitably get suspicious.
“Charles. How much time do you have?”
“hmm. About 20 minutes?”
Charles replied while checking his smartphone.
“I like to finish it in 15 minutes if possible. But well, if the story gets really long, it could be up to 25 minutes. Because this hospital was established, 20% of the madam’s money went into it.”
Charles replied with a slight wink.
“20 minutes. That’s enough.”
After Sophia-sama replied with a kind smile, she turned her gaze to me.
“However, it is not spacious enough to be relaxed. I’m sorry, but I’ll skip all the introductions and move on to the main topic.”
“Speaking of the main subject… … .”
Sophia-sama’s expression immediately became serious.
“This is about the things I saw and realized through the Fist transfer ceremony.”
“… … The Fist Transfer Ceremony? Wasn’t The Feast’s transfer ceremony tomorrow?”
The Feast’s transfer ceremony was three days after the Open Raid finals.
Since I said I slept for two days, the transfer ceremony should be tomorrow.
“The Fist transfer ceremony was two days ago. It was held on the final day of the Open Raid. To trick the eyes and ears of the enemy, three days went fast.”
“ah.”
You didn’t even tell me the information that it was advanced by three days.
Hey, since I wasn’t involved in the transfer ceremony at all, there wouldn’t have been a need to say it.
“… … wait a minute.”
On the day of the Open Raid final, The Feast’s transfer ceremony began?
That means… … .
“Then, the day of the open raid final. Does it have anything to do with the monsters running rampant and the arena’s facilities shutting down?”
Could it be that there is a connection between the two events?
“oh. Do you have a good head?”
It was Charles, not Sophia, who answered my question.
“that’s right. The fist transfer ceremony is the cause.”
“… … also.”
My prediction was correct.
My head spins like a top.
I replayed the experiences I had in the blackout arena.
“Then, the dark side of this incident… … .”
And, I soon came to a reasonable hypothesis.
“Are you the Dark Mage King?”
“… … !”
“… … !”
At my murmur, Charles and Sophia-sama opened their eyes at the same time.
“you you. how did you know that Who told you already?”
Charles brought his face close to me with a shocked expression, spattered and shouted.
“No, there’s no way someone would have told me… … . The only people you met after waking up were your brother and sister… … . The information they both need to know… … .”
Charles glared at me with sharp eyes.
“… … How do you know?”
It looked like something suspicious of me. Did they even think that I was a spy for the Black Mage Tower, knowing information I shouldn’t have known?
“Charles. It can’t be.”
Sophia-sama held back Charles’ gaze.
“But Madam… … . Knowing that information… … .”
Before this misunderstanding grows any bigger, it would be better to clear it up.
“I haven’t heard from anyone.”
Before Sofia-sama could say anything, I spoke first.
“It’s not much more like a spy from the Black Mage Tower, as Captain Charles thought.”
“Then how did you know?”
“… … I saw.”
“What you looking at?”
“The end of the open raid arena. While fighting the tricolor tiger. The corrupted mana that filled the depths of his body.”
“… … Did you see something like that?”
“yes.”
I was reminded of the memory of that time.
“It’s dirtier, uglier, and uglier than any mana I’ve ever seen… … . It was a level that could not be compared to the mana of an executive level.”
Just thinking about it again sends chills down your spine.
That was such an unpleasant mana.
“I just thought that if it was that kind of mana, it must be the mana of the Dark Mage King. They even said it was related to The Fist Transfer Ceremony, so I thought it was 100%.”
“… … .”
Charles was silent.
He half-opens his mouth and looks at me in disbelief.
Sophia-sama, who was sitting next to her, did the same.
His eyes are wide open, as if he can’t believe what I’m saying.
“Madam. The art of seeing an individual’s mana latent in the depths… … Is it possible inside the jewel?”
“… … no. It is impossible to see the true nature of the mana hidden deep within the target, unless it is the mana that has been revealed to the outside. Not to mention, the skill of directly capturing deep mana from the inside of the monsters that were indirectly affected by the black mage king’s mana is unbelievable… … .”
Sophia-sama was deep in thought with a serious expression on her face.
As if he had a lot of thoughts, he mumbled something and stared straight into my eyes.
“If that is possible, it will be possible to uncover the secret actions of the Black Mage Tower… … . then… … .”
Sophia looked straight into my eyes.
“Perhaps, before. Providing the Red Mage Tower owner with the information that there was going to be an attack on the 3rd Magic Stone Warehouse… … .”
“yes. That’s me.”
“As expected.”
Sophia-sama nodded as if they were finally getting along.
“what?”
Charles was shocked again.
“That, you said you provided that information?”
“yes.”
“What crazy! Were you the person I was looking for so much? Wow, I heard it’s really dark under the lamp.”
Charles grabbed his forehead and let out an absurd laugh.
“… … As for why we didn’t talk about this before… … You don’t even need to ask.”
“yes.”
There was no time, and it wasn’t something to talk about on the first meeting.
Other than that, I didn’t have time to talk about other important things.
“… … That’s too bad. If only I had heard about this earlier… … . It’s my mistake. If only we had one more opportunity to talk… … .”
Sophia-sama blamed herself and smiled bitterly.
“No, now is not the time to blame yourself. Now that I know… … .”
However, such self-blame is temporary. He immediately returned with a serious look.
“… … Charles. Excuse me, could you go out and buy me some time? Unexpectedly, the conversation seems to be getting a little longer.”
“okay. 30 minutes. I’ll try to earn that much somehow.”
Charles got up and went straight out of the hospital room.
“sorry. You said you were going straight to the main topic, but the quadruped has become very long.”
“no.”
Only two rooms left.
Sophia-sama opened her mouth as if hesitating about something. attached repeated.
“I wasn’t going to talk about this right now, but… … . If Ha Yul’s divine eye had that level… … .”
And then, it seems like he decided to do something soon.
“Hayul-kun.”
He looked into my eyes and said:
“Do you have any intention of becoming my disciple?”
“If you say disciple… … .”
“yes.”
The only being standing on top of the 12 Magic Towers.
Because it stands at the pinnacle of all colors, only a unique wizard who has not been given any color can sit.
It is said that the honor of sitting in that seat cannot be expressed in any rhetoric, so it is the throne of a military officer who has no title.
“Formally become my successor, and take my place as the next generation. That’s what I mean.”
She was offering me a seat.
