Descent of the Legendary Archmage Chapter 167

Chapter 167

“Are you here?”

“welcome.”

It was Adela and Sunchan who welcomed me back to the hotel.

Both are neatly dressed in livery.

He is wearing all sorts of decorations and ornaments, including epaulettes.

Makeup is also perfect full makeup.

“Sunchan, what’s wrong with your makeup? What else are you?”

Today was the World Academy Olympiad Ceremony Day.

Since it was an important position, it was natural to dress up.

“haha. Isn’t this K-beauty?”

Soonchan pressed his face towards me and held up the phone.

And then just snap.

Took a picture.

“Big. this is it This is the difference between wearing and not wearing makeup~ I mean.”

Looking at the photo, Soonchan smiled as if he was satisfied.

“look. your face is ugly My face is sunny.”

Sunchan showed me the picture he had just taken.

Although the difference in real makeup is huge, Sunchan’s face tone is much brighter than mine.

“good. I should save it under the name Ha Yul’s Humiliation Photo.”

Soonchan smiled wickedly and changed the name of the picture.

“Humiliating photos… … ?”

Adela, who sneakily checked the photo from the side, tilted her head as if wondering.

“It’s rather humiliating… … .”

Adela glanced at Soon-chan and said.

“Shh.”

“town.”

I put my index finger on Adela’s mouth and sealed it.

Then he whispered in his ear.

“I like it, just leave it alone.”

“But even with full makeup on, I’m pushed like that… … .”

It is true that Soonchan’s face has become much more handsome with full makeup.

My skin tone is brighter, my eyes look a little bigger, my eyebrows are well-groomed, and my lips are full of life.

If you ask passers-by what they think of Sunchan’s face now, if you ask 10 people, 8 will say he’s handsome.

But that’s all.

Drawing a line on a pumpkin does not make it a watermelon.

No matter how cool Sunchan is, it doesn’t work for me.

“good. You should brag about it by posting it on the group chat.”

Sunchan came out and uploaded the picture he just took to the group chat room.

It is an expression of anticipation of what kind of reaction will come.

I also sneakily picked up my phone and opened Talk.

[Jin Hee-yoon: What is it? Is the new leader back? No, more than that, Sunchan, why aren’t you taking your makeup off yet?]

The response came right away.

[Ji Soon-chan: I didn’t delete it because it was a waste haha. how is it? That’s why Ha Yul doesn’t work for me, right?]

Sunchan sent a message with a smile. Her mouth is wide open, as if she is thinking of receiving compliments from senior Hee-yoon.

[Jin Hee-yoon: Soon-chan. Calm down.]

but what about this

Hee-yoon sunbaenim’s style is stone fastball.

You’re the kind of person who never talks empty words.

[Jin Hee-yoon: No matter how hard people try to make up… … How do you rub against Seo Kang-joon?]

Sun-chan’s expression hardened.

[Jin Hee-yoon: Rather, as much as you can see that he gave a lot of strength, it is pitiful, hey.]

[Jin Hee-yoon: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha It’s more like that when I see it again. Full makeup is a must for a completely natural body kekekekeke]

[Majinseok: Oh. what. Ha Yul looks good in a modern suit like that.]

[Ma Jin-seok: What about Sun-chan, Ha-yul giving her face? Is it groundbreaking? It’s a reverse make-up technique.]

Soonchan was crying.

It sounded like something was ‘cracking’. Didn’t actually hear it.

It was the sound of a broken heart.

I moved to Soonchan’s side and patted him on the back.

“are you okay. Senior Hee-yoon said he doesn’t see her face much.”

“… … ah. I want to kill you.”

As if I was quite unlucky in my expression, Soonchan spat out those words from the bottom of his heart.

“Ehh.”

But that’s for a while.

Soon, ‘It’s done.’ He let out a small sigh and sent another message.

[Ji Sun-chan: Let’s see, everyone. Really. I will take revenge next time.]

[(Mouse emoticon with shining eyes looking for an opportunity)]

I sent a message like that and put the phone in my pocket.

Then, with an expression of ‘Eh’, he sat roughly on the chair and crossed his legs.

“So, you still haven’t taken off your uniform or removed your makeup to take that picture?”

I sat down beside him.

“okay. men and horses. I tried to win with my face at least once like this. Do you pick it up?”

Soonchan was straight.

It seemed like a joke, but it was oddly serious.

You were half sincere.

“I’m sorry, friend. Because I am so handsome.”

“… … Shit, I should have just recorded that comment.”

The best prospect of all time. mp4 It was each… … he muttered.

“Ehh.”

Soonchan sighed again and stood up.

“Wake up, Sasha.”

“why?”

“It’s okay, wake up. Seo Kang-jun from Obelisk Academy. yes?”

Sunchan grabbed my forearm with a worldly expression on his face and raised me up.

“ruler. stand right here.”

“… … What?”

Then he put me in front of Adela.

“Come on, stay alert. Concentration.”

Soon-chan cleared his throat and said in a thick voice.

“Then, finally, there will be an MVP award.”

“… … .”

My eyes widened.

“World Academy Olympiad MVP. Won a total of 6 championships, the leader who led Korea to the championship, and the driving force behind the victory. Shin Ha Yul! We will greet you with a strong applause!”

Soonchan and Adela clapped their hands.

Soonchan’s strong applause and Adela’s moderate applause resonated.

“… … .”

I stood blankly listening to the sound.

“hey. What are you doing. I have to answer.”

Sunchan stabbed my side with his elbow.

“… … What are you doing?”

“scent. I don’t notice. Aren’t they holding an MVP award ceremony for you?”

Today I was unable to attend the Olympiad ceremony.

The reason is, of course, Se Ah’s funeral.

My family died, but I couldn’t attend the festival called the Olympiad Awards Ceremony.

“ruler. again. Standby. go! MVP! Shin Ha-yul!”

Soonchan and Adela clapped again.

I looked at the two of them and smiled a little. Something made me laugh spontaneously.

‘… … really.’

I don’t know how to explain this feeling right now.

I think it’s good, but it’s also embarrassing… … .

“Shin Ha-yul!”

“yes yes.”

One thing’s for sure, it’s not that I don’t like it.

“Answer only once!”

“Yeah~”

“I don’t stretch my horse’s tail! Who lengthens their horsetails at sacred awards ceremonies?”

Sunchan said with a rather solemn expression. However, her mouth is wide open.

“Then I will award the prize to MPV.”

Adela took out the small box she was holding and handed it to me.

“It’s a normal pyroxene. I hope you will use it for good.”

“… … Why did the comments suddenly become cheap?”

“I forgot my lines.”

Soonchan stuck out his tongue and pretended to be cute.

“Write. Put it in before cutting out that tongue?”

“yep.”

Sunchan put his tongue all over his lips.

When I saw Sunchan like that, I burst into laughter without even realizing it.

“Did you really not change your clothes or remove your makeup for 5 hours to do this?”

“why? Do you cringe a bit?”

“Not a little, but a lot?”

“Kuk-kuk. Then it worked. It was my real purpose to make you sick.”

Soon-chan laughed loudly, saying ‘Mhaha!’

However, that was only for a moment, Soon-chan’s expression immediately became serious.

“to be honest. Circumstances are circumstance… … . I don’t know if it’s right for us to celebrate like this.”

I lost two family members.

This is something Sun-chan is well aware of.

“I think it might make you feel bad.”

What kind of celebration is it when a family member dies?

It’s not strange to think about it now.

“But I just wanted to congratulate you. I had to convey my sincere congratulations to the main character of this Olympiad victory.”

Sunchan hit my chest with his fist.

“Congratulations MVP. friend.”

“congratulations.”

Soonchan and Adela smiled brightly.

I made eye contact with the two of them in turn and smiled.

“… … okay. thanks.”

Something tickled my chest.

“Thanks to you, I feel like it’s really over.”

The long Olympiad has come to an end.

I felt that way.

* * *

After that.

After lightly chatting with Adela and Soonchan, I headed for Mimir’s room.

“I’m here.”

“Come on.”

Mimir greeted me with a shy expression.

“As expected, you are late.”

It must have been because of Aslan, who was sitting next to him reading a book.

“Did things go well?”

“Should I say that this has been resolved well… … .”

“why? Any problem? Did you miss Shin Ji-han?”

“No, it’s not like that… … .”

I slowly talked about what had happened this time.

From the death of Se-ah to the brain death of Shin Ji-han.

And even holding Tkish in permafrost.

He explained everything without missing a single word.

“okay. The heir’s sister… … .”

Mimir laughed bitterly.

He seemed to understand why I reacted so mysteriously.

“She wasn’t such a good sister, but… … . Even though it was bittersweet.”

“Because it is a family. Of course.”

“huh. I know.”

Maybe it’s because we went to the hospital to visit at the end and had a sincere conversation.

My heart ached strangely.

“I’m sorry about your sister, but capturing the executive is a big achievement.”

Aslan narrowed her eyes.

You seem to be thinking a lot about something.

“Even more so, a spiritual psychic who handles souls… … It is an indescribable achievement to have caught that tricky bug at this time.”

“As expected, you know the identity of the resurrection magic Tkish uses.”

A spiritual psychic who handles spirits.

That was something he could say because he knew the identity of T’Kish’s resurrection magic.

“Of course.”

Aslan’s eyes grew sharper.

“A magic that binds the body to the soul, fixing the body and returning it to its original form. It is a sacrifice.”

By attributing the body to the soul, it fixes the body.

It was a phrase that could be interpreted in many ways.

Roughly, three interpretations are possible.

which one of them

“No matter how much you destroy the body, it means nothing. To kill them, you have to hit their spiritual body directly.”

it was the third

“It’s fraudulent.”

“It’s fraudulent. How much my head hurt because of those bugs… … .”

Aslan gnashed his teeth with a bloody expression, as if recalling the past war.

“Is there any price?”

“Of course there is.”

Fortunately, it did not seem to be power without a price.

“In order to regenerate the body once, ten lives must be sacrificed.”

“… … It’s a disgusting price.”

living sacrifice.

At those words, my brow furrowed.

“How do you offer sacrifices?”

“Heroic spirits create a ‘sanctuary’ somewhere in advance. Offerings are usually prepared there.”

“So, as long as the sacrifice remains in the sanctuary, it will never die. Are you saying this?”

“Absolutely not. If you hit the soul directly, it’s the end.”

Aslan crossed his arms and smiled.

“A direct blow to the soul… … Does such magic exist?”

“exist. However, it is not a magic that the current successor can use.”

“… … okay.”

Then, it is impossible to destroy T’Kish by directly attacking the soul.

“Having him bound in permafrost is a very good move. Spiritual Sorcerers are black magicians who deal with souls. Therefore, if you put your mind to it, it is possible to abandon the current body and escape by blowing only the soul. The existence of the ‘Sanctuary’ makes that possible.”

Aslan crossed his arms and smiled.

“The original mythical magic of permafrost is ‘ice that freezes even the soul’. Only the permafrost that inherited the tradition can bind the spirit lord.”

“Ice that freezes even the soul… … .”

Permafrost has such power.

I just used permafrost because it was the most powerful freezing magic. Lucky for you.

“… … He said he couldn’t explain. You are doing well.”

Mimir, who was quietly listening to the conversation, glared at Aslan with cold eyes.

“Don’t you know why someone who is so good at explaining always leaves the explanation to someone else?”

Aslan silently avoided Mimir’s gaze.

Judging from the reactions of the two, it seemed that he knew roughly what the situation was.

‘I wondered that a brain wave like Asran couldn’t explain it well. I guess it was just because it was annoying to explain.’

In short, I was cosplaying as if I couldn’t explain it.

If you think about it, the mana core and the explanation of the constitution were very perfect.

I almost never felt like I couldn’t explain it.

“hmm. I don’t know what you mean.”

“… … Tsk. it’s okay. Talking about it only hurts my mouth.”

Mimir shook his head.

“Continue your explanation.”

“I will leave the rest to Mimir-sama.”

“You really… … .”

Mimir glared at Aslan. Aslan smiled as if Mimir’s gaze was cute.

“done. it’s okay. i do i do it Whew.”

Mimir sighed heavily and turned his gaze to me.

“To conclude, the successor is the current executive. You’re looking for a way to neutralize T’Kish, aren’t you?”

“yes.”

Before the permafrost is lifted, we have to find a way somehow.

The best thing to do is to completely restrain him and extract information from him. If that’s impossible, then you have to find a way to kill him somehow.

I can’t let my soul fly away like this.

“Then there are two ways. One is, as Asran said sneakily earlier, a way to destroy the soul.”

“That’s impossible for me right now.”

“huh. It’s not just the current heir, it’s probably impossible for any wizard.”

Mimir paused for a moment.

“Therefore, the only way is to sever the connection between his soul and the ‘Sanctuary’.”

“Disconnect from the sanctuary… … .”

Certainly, if I could break it, I would be able to nullify T’Kish’s magic.

“But that seems as difficult as a direct blow to the soul. Is it possible for me now?”

“Is it possible.”

Mimir glanced at Aslan.

Aslan smiles with his arms crossed. That expression evoked a strange feeling of uneasiness.

“As long as the successor receives recognition from Aslan within three days.”

“admit… … .”

Be acknowledged by Aslan.

This means that you must completely clear the pages of the fifth test.

And speaking of what I can get by clearing the fifth test page… … .

“A mythical magic that can be obtained by clearing the 5th Trial page. You mean there’s an answer?”

“that’s right.”

Mimir nodded with a serious expression.

“Using that, I can definitely sever the connection between T’Kish and the sanctuary.”
