Descent of the Legendary Archmage Chapter 156

Chapter 156

‘I’d like to talk in detail, but I don’t have time for that. I’m currently being watched by Jihan oppa, so if the phone call is long, I’m 100% suspicious. I just took the time to do this… … .’

‘… … Kut. Even a tiger will come if you speak. brother is here sorry. I’ll call you later.’

My sister said that one last time and hung up the phone.

There was no chance to ask anything more.

Like a person being chased by something, he ran out of words and hung up the phone.

‘How are things going?’

I put my phone on the table and put my head on it.

I couldn’t understand the current situation.

‘Shin Ji-han is using my sister to kill me?’

It was something I had never imagined, and it was something I had never imagined.

‘How are you planning to kill me using older sister Sae-ah?’

And if this continues, what does it mean that both my sister and I will die?

‘No, more than that, how did Se-ah know that Shin Ji-han was trying to use her?’

Shin Ji-han is meticulous and cunning.

The proof is that even though they’ve targeted me three times so far, they haven’t left any evidence.

Did Shin Ji-han leave evidence that Se-ah would notice?

It was a word that was hard to believe.

‘… … no The two are in a cooperative relationship. Since we were close, it’s understandable.’

The information that my enemy, Se-ah, and my ally, Se-ah, can obtain is different in density and quality.

You must have noticed it because you were so close.

Shin Ji-han must be impatient now, so there is a high probability that he made a mistake.

It wouldn’t be strange if Se-ah’s sister noticed Shin Ji-han’s dark intentions.

‘By the way, why did you tell me that information?’

Let’s say Se-ah noticed something about Shin Ji-han’s ruse.

I noticed that Shin Ji-han was using him to kill me, and then he was trying to kill himself as well.

So, which one do you usually choose?

Should I choose to call my brother?

No way.

‘I usually contact my father, not my younger brother.’

It’s better to ask your father for help than to call me and ask for help.

‘Nevertheless, he left me a note and contacted me. why?’

Why?

Why did you bother to contact me?

Numerous hypotheses ran through my mind.

However, no conclusion could be drawn.

There was too little information to draw conclusions.

‘… … I need more information.’

In order to know how things are going, we need to gather additional information.

I immediately got up and walked outside.

I was thinking of calling Mr. Seok-hyeon, who was waiting outside the door, and requesting further investigation.

The moment you grab the doorknob and open the door.

‘… … wait for a sec.’

Suddenly, a thought passed through my head.

‘It’s not that my sister didn’t ask for help from her father, it’s that she couldn’t?’

What should Shin Ji-han pay the most attention to when he plans and executes a plan to deal with me using his sister?

Of course, it is the dynamics of my father and Mr. Seokhyun.

‘There’s no way Shin Ji-han wouldn’t observe the movements of his father and Uncle Seok-hyeon while making such a plan.’

If I were Shin Ji-han, I would unconditionally observe the trends of my father and Uncle Seok-hyeon. And if we see any suspicious movement, we will immediately stop the operation.

‘… … Then, it would be a bad idea to ask Mr. Seok-hyeon to investigate.’

If this was Korea, there would be no problem.

If it were in Korea, no matter what Mr. Seok-hyeon did, Ji-han Shin wouldn’t be able to detect it.

‘But this is America. It’s close to impossible to carry out the mission without being noticed by anyone.’

No matter how many shadows or even Mr. Seok-hyeon, there is no choice but to show some movement.

It would be much easier to observe the movement now that all personnel are gathered in the hotel to carry out the mission of escorting me.

If you ask Mr. Seokhyun to investigate, there is a high probability that Jihan Shin will notice.

And it will quickly wag its tail.

‘I could lay everything on Se-ah and fall for myself.’

Se Ah’s sister said that Shin Ji Han would use her to kill me.

He said he would die after that.

‘If you think of it the other way around, it means that I’m already ready to lay the blame on Sister Se-ah.’

Now the question is solved.

Why did Sister Se Ah bother to ask me for help?

‘If I ask my father for help, Se-ah’s sister will be in a situation where she will be destroyed.’

That’s why Sister Se Ah contacted me.

If I was being targeted by Shin Ji-han, I must have thought that I could join forces.

I let go of the doorknob and went back to where I was sitting.

‘good. I was told that I would be contacted again. Let’s wait until then.’

It won’t be too late to tell Mr. Seok-hyeon or your father about this after hearing the details from your sister.

‘Do not leave the hotel, and observe the situation as safely as possible.’

I don’t know what Shin Ji-han is aiming for, but as long as I’m in the hotel, there’s no way he can do anything to me.

I decided to wait quietly at the hotel and wait for my sister’s call.

If Se-ah’s sister has information or evidence that can capture Shin Ji-han… … .

‘At that time, I can really put an end to Shin Ji-han.’

Well worth the wait.

That night.

After having a light dinner.

I immediately took Adela back to the room.

“Isn’t Sunchan coming?”

“I asked. They said there was a prior agreement.”

“aha.”

“But maybe it’s an excuse.”

“An excuse?”

“uh. As long as the seat is a seat, I made an excuse to fall in somehow. Because it’s embarrassing.”

The reason I invited Adela to my room today was not to make friends with her.

There is a different reason.

“Is there any reason to be burdened?”

“If you say you’re having a tea party with the blue mage tower lord, they’re usually embarrassed.”

It wasn’t exactly me who called Adela, it was the blue mage lord.

He said he wanted to talk over tea tonight.

I just invited Adela as requested by the blue mage lord.

“… … is that so?”

“uh. You haven’t even been discharged in a while. How burdensome would that be?”

Around noon today, the blue mage tower lord was discharged.

There was a doctor’s opinion that I still need to recuperate more, but he said that he was forced to leave the hospital, saying he couldn’t stay anymore because he was frustrated.

In other words, it is a situation where the injury can be aggravated.

That’s just embarrassing.

“I understand a little when you say that.”

Adela nodded a couple of times, clearly thinking, ‘I’ll be careful.’

Adela must have forgotten the feeling of being a real burden.

Did you trade it for magical talent?

“Anyway, Sunchan refused, so I’ll have to put away one of the teacups.”

The blue mage lord said he wanted to talk to Soon-chan separately, so he invited me at best.

I didn’t expect to be rejected like this.

‘I’ll have to say that I’ll prepare a place where I can have a private meeting with Soon-chan later.’

Where would you be more burdened?

I laughed wickedly inwardly and put away the teacup Sunchan had prepared for the dragon.

At the same time, he took out a teapot that had been prepared on one side.

“Can I help?”

“are you okay. Nothing special. sit down.”

I told Adela to stay still and opened the teapot.

Then, he took out the Raptellia tea leaves he had prepared in advance.

“I will help you.”

Adela got up from her seat and came to me. She looks like she wants to help with anything.

“hmm. Well here. Peel this off and put it in a bowl.”

I pointed my chin at the pile of cookies next to the teapot.

“yes.”

Adela took the cookies in her hand and began to open them one by one and place them in a bowl.

Meanwhile, I put the tea leaves in the teapot, poured hot water, and started to brew the tea.

The most important temperature control was perfectly controlled through magic.

‘okay.’

Now let it sit like this for about 3 minutes. I moved the teapot to the center of the table as it is.

smart-

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

You must have come.

I opened the door right away.

“Excuse me for being late.”

The blue mage lord smiled and said hello.

“Excuse me. Come in.”

A bandage wrapped around an arm or a bandage worn on the face.

It seemed right that the injury hadn’t healed yet.

‘… … I’m sorry for nothing.’

Since Kim Kang-in was injured like that, I have some responsibility.

It wasn’t even fully healed yet, but he went to great lengths to save us there.

“You don’t have to look that way. Because I just did what I had to do. As I said, protecting juniors is the role of seniors.”

As if he read my thoughts through my expression, Kim Kang-in smiled brightly and said.

“If you feel favored by me, please pay back to other juniors in the future.”

“yes. I will definitely do that.”

“great.”

Kim Kang-in smiled widely.

“Can I sit here?”

“yes.”

Kim Kang-in took his seat.

“what? Three tea cups?”

“yes. Sunchan couldn’t come because he had a prior appointment.”

“That’s too bad. I also wanted to talk to Soonchan separately. If there was a prior agreement, there is nothing I can do about it.”

“I’ll reserve a seat for you next time.”

“Then thank you. Talking with promising juniors is always welcome.”

okay. Soon-chan’s plan to be alone is cleared with this.

“Here, sweets.”

Soon after, Adela, who had prepared snacks, placed a bowl of cookies on the table and bowed her head.

“Miss Adela. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this. You have become prettier.”

“that… … . thank you.”

As if embarrassed, Adela paused and answered.

He even sat in his seat.

I just picked up the teapot and poured the tea.

“What car is it?”

“This is Raftelia tea.”

“It’s the first car I’ve ever heard of.”

Kim Kang-in held up the teacup and savored the scent.

“It smells good. Is this tea also brewed by Miss Adela?”

“no. Ha Yul brewed the tea.”

“aha. Ha Yul-kun.”

Kangin Kim turned his gaze to me.

“Last time, you said that you are somewhat good at refreshments. We look forward to it.”

“At least you won’t be disappointed.”

These days, while making tea for Mimir, my skills have improved a lot.

It’s not a skill that will disappoint anyone, but you can be proud of it.

“great. Then where… … .”

Kim Kang-in tilted the teacup as it was. Indeed, it was a dignified appearance of a group.

“indeed. It’s a skill you can be confident in.”

As if he liked the car, his smile grew even brighter.

“I’m glad it seems to fit your mouth.”

Kim Kang-in smiled leisurely and put the teacup back on the table.

“okay. Did Adela become a member of the 5th circle while I was asleep?”

“yes. I was lucky.”

“I was lucky. It’s a little different from what I’ve heard.”

Kim Kang-in glanced at me with a strangely sinister expression.

“I heard that Ha Yul-kun gave me a huge gift… … .”

“… … Where else did you hear about that?”

“I heard from the head of the Sinbiwi family. The scandalous thief was indignant that he was trying to seduce his daughter with a bribe.”

“… … .”

Adela’s expression hardened.

As if embarrassed by something, he bit his upper lip and said, ‘Fool, Dad… … ‘, she muttered.

You still use the title of father.

I thought that after entering the academy, becoming an honorific machine, my title would change to father.

“haha. I think they’re a really good pair.”

“It’s not like that… … .”

“yes. I know. You’re admitting the relationship only after convincing the head of the mystery house, right?”

“… … .”

“If there is anything I can help with, please tell me. Ah, this is a personal request, but even if I make the Taemin… … .”

Adela and I just smiled shyly, looking like we were sitting on a cushion of thorns.

* * *

About 2 hours have passed since then.

The tea party ended safely.

Aside from the first topic about my relationship with Adela, it was a pretty enjoyable time.

Since all three of them are crazy about magic, the conversation never stops.

It was a tea party, but it was almost like an academic conference or debate.

‘ah. It was fun.’

Sharing knowledge with someone is just as enjoyable as enjoying unknown knowledge.

I sincerely hoped that there would be another opportunity like this.

‘I’ll have to arrange a place again after I go back to Korea.’

It would be nice to have a discussion in earnest this time.

I’m imagining such fun.

Ugh!

The phone on the desk vibrated.

[Restrict Caller ID]

There is only one person worthy of calling at this time with caller id.

‘It’s Sister Se-ah.’

I didn’t expect to be contacted again this soon.

I got a call right away.

“hello?”

―Huh… … ha… … .

The sound of breathing up to the chin and the irregular coughing sound.

—… Ha Yul, this… … you… ?

“… … sister?”

It was a dying voice.
