Descent of the Legendary Archmage Chapter 214

Chapter 214

For a while, I felt the ring of awakening nestled deep in my body and was delighted.

‘It’s not the time to be happy.’

Realizing the important thing, I headed straight out of the training ground.

Since it’s been like this for 11 days, everyone must be very worried.

I have to tell you that I woke up as soon as possible.

“oh. Shin Ha-yul. You are awake!”

As I headed out of the training ground, the man who seemed to be the owner of the training ground greeted me with an expression of sadness.

“I am very fortunate. How worried were you… … .”

It was such an expression, as if the worry that had been like a mountain had melted away at once.

Apparently, he wasn’t worried about my safety.

For worrying about me as a complete stranger, the density of emotions is too great, and the torrent of emotional changes is too extreme.

“I have to tell the head of the household right away.”

The owner quickly picked up the phone and called. I’m sure he’s trying to call his dad.

“You probably won’t. He didn’t even answer my calls.”

“ah… … . You don’t receive… … That’s right.”

The owner’s expression softened slightly. It was a pretty dramatic reaction considering that I hadn’t been in touch for a while.

‘I get it roughly.’

I thought I knew roughly why the owner was reacting like this.

“Did your father give the order to close the business until I come out?”

“yes? Ah yes… … .”

I knew it.

The reason the man greeted me with a thrilled expression was because I had woken up and was now able to do business again.

The thing I was most worried about was the income from the training ground.

The reason I told my father right away was to get permission to resume the business, rather than to report on my survival.

However, since I can’t get in touch with my father, who is really important to me, I have no choice but to have a dark expression on my face.

“sorry. just because of me We will definitely compensate you for the damage caused by this incident.”

Since this large-scale training ground has been out of business for 11 days, the damage must be more severe than imagined.

Morally and legally, I have to compensate for the damage.

“You don’t have to worry about the financial problems caused by the shutdown, as the head of household has already taken care of it.”

Speaking of receiving a reward, the owner’s expression was quite dark.

He said he was happy, but his expression was not at all happy.

“The regular customers seem to be the problem.”

“… … yes. Even if everyone moved to another training ground in about 11 days, it wouldn’t be strange.”

Regular customers account for more than 50% of sales at training grounds and other facilities.

In such a situation, the departure of regulars will lead to a long-term decrease in sales at the training ground.

The owner was worried about that.

“In regards to that, the Madosinga will prepare appropriate countermeasures. Also, even if it is not at the family level, I will definitely help where I can.”

This training ground is like a benefactor to me.

If the owner of this training ground had been a little more greedy and a little more hardheaded, he would have tried to force me out.

If so, I would have failed to weave the ring of awakening.

I was able to weave the ring of awakening safely not without the patience and concessions of the owner.

As much as the host has been considerate of me, I have to repay him accordingly.

that’s cognition

“The words that Shin Ha-yul alone will help you separately. Are you serious?”

“yes. I will help as best as I can.”

“then… … !”

The host held my hand.

“Please be a PR model once.”

“… … yes?”

Then he made an unexpected offer.

“If Shin Ha-yul, who has a reputation as the son of the people and a hero of Korea, serves as a publicity model, it will bring about a big increase in sales both in the short term and in the long term. So please… … .”

“hmm… … .”

I thought it was out of the blue for a moment.

If you think about it, it was a pretty reasonable method.

Even though my popularity has cooled since right after the Olympiad, the value of my name is still high.

I’m promoting this training ground myself.

Not a bad way to think about it again.

“I am still a student. It is impossible to do a promotional model commercially.”

The problem is that I can’t do something like a PR model separately.

“ah… … . I did… … . I was eating. So sorry, but this offer didn’t exist… … .”

“So instead of overtly promoting it, let’s do indirect publicity.”

“Indirect promotion?”

“yes. It happened that I was appearing on a famous talk show. There, I will secretly talk about what happened this time and do indirect publicity.”

“ah! If that’s all you’ll do, I couldn’t ask for more! thank you!”

“no. I’ve caused trouble.”

My answer made the owner look impressed.

His expression seemed to be thinking, ‘I can’t believe there is such a wonderful young man!’

“… … Could you give me just one autograph? Because my son is a fan.”

“hmm. Unfortunately, there is no signature. Instead, how about taking a picture with your son next time?”

“Ah, thank you so much!”

The owner bowed his head with a deeply moved expression.

“Rather than that, my father hasn’t contacted me yet… … . Do you know anything?”

“yes? well. not sure… … . ah.”

The owner tried to answer that he didn’t know, but let out an exclamation as if he realized something.

“Come to think of it, today is it.”

As expected, something really happened today.

“today. I heard at first glance that there will be negotiations between the Sorcerers and the Mystical Commission.”

“At this time, negotiating with the Secret Service… … .”

In my head, the mystery committee is the family head’s younger brother. Sanghyun Sang’s name came to mind.

As a spy for the Black Mage Tower, the information that he was preparing a new project to raise his position also came to mind.

“Are you negotiating the right to refining 11 types of magic stones?”

“Ah yes. You will be right. I don’t know if it’s 11 species, but I’ve heard that it’s related to magic stones.”

“… … okay.”

During the 11 days I was focused, it seems that the situation has become quite tense.

“Sorry. Could you prepare some tea right now?”

* * *

The inside of the conference hall where the Madosinga and the Mystical Wigi are negotiating.

Shin In-hyeok was having a conversation with Charles during a short break.

“… … It seems to be what you said.”

“Look at that. what did i say Sang-hyun Sang-hyun is the bastard spy.”

At Shin In-hyeok’s words, Charles let out a sigh and replied.

It’s an expression that asks if you believe me now.

“I was half-believing. It wasn’t anyone else, it was Sophia-sama’s words. I just got confidence today.”

“Half-belief means half-belief.”

“yes.”

“Wherever you look at it… … . Whew. done. tell me what are you doing”

Charles let out a sigh as the ground disappeared again.

Shin In-hyeok’s uprightness and firm convictions are definitely a big advantage, but in this respect, it’s very frustrating.

‘Ah, I miss Ha Yul.’

There is nothing like a servant to break this man’s stubbornness.

If it was Shin Ha-yul, I wouldn’t have to go through that hardship for the past week.

Thinking like that, the longing for no reason grew bigger.

“Anyway, are you saying you believe me 100% now?”

“okay. Sang-hyeon’s reaction is also a reaction, but the situation is so strange.”

“Is the situation strange? what? I don’t know about that.”

Shin In-hyeok’s eyes shone sharply.

“The 11 types of Magic Stones that the Mystic House says they will newly manufacture are items that were monopolized by our Sorcerers until now. What do you think is the reason?”

“well? Isn’t it like a contractual reason?”

Shin In-hyeok glared at Charles with the look of an idiot.

“The country will legally condone such an oligopoly.”

“… … No.”

Charles slightly looked away.

Charles, a mercenary, lacks knowledge about these political relationships and legal content.

“The reason is simple. Because only we know how to refine 11 types of magic stones.”

“It was a really simple reason… … .”

The only one who can make it is the Madoshinga.

Therefore, monopoly is inevitable.

The 11 types of Magic Stones have become something like the symbol of a magician family.

“Then, are you saying that the method of refining magic stones of the magicians has been leaked to the outside?”

“You’re quick to notice again in this place.”

This is the only reason why such a negotiation table was held with the 11 types of magic stones as an issue.

“okay. It seems that Sanghyeon knows about the magic stone refining method of the magicians.”

Shin In-hyeok’s eyes shone sharply again.

The fact that Sanghyeon Sang, an outsider, knows the method of refining magic stones, which is the top secret among the top secrets of the Mage Gods, means that, as Charles said, there is a very high possibility that a spy of the Black Mage Tower is hiding inside the Mage Gods and Mystic Guards.

It’s quite possible for the same spy to share top-secret information.

“But aren’t things like magic stone refining protected by international patent law? If they used the magic god’s purification method as it is, wouldn’t that be against the law?”

“If I had used it as is, it would have caught me.”

if you used it as is.

“In the first place, individual intellectual property rights and patent rights are quite difficult to be recognized for infringement. In the case of magic or skills acquired through old books, there are many similar skills. It could have been obtained from a separate old book. Even if the methods overlap to some extent, there is no choice but to tolerate them.”

“That’s what… … .”

If it was natural, it was natural.

If property rights are granted to calculation formulas or formulas one by one, that’s an evil law.

“Sanghyun took advantage of the gap in the law very well. Among the 11 types of magic stones, 3 types of magic stones with strong characteristics use the exact same purification method as ours. The remaining 8 types of magic stones changed the purification method, albeit minutely.”

Leave the three purification methods that cannot be changed.

Changes were made to the 8 types of magic stones that could be changed.

And he said:

‘As you can see by looking at these 8 magic stones, it’s a completely different method from the Mado Gods. It is proof that we obtained the magic stone purification method through a separate ancient book.’

‘These three Magic Stones are very unique, so it seems that the method is similar to some extent in the old book I got. It’s the same as the magic stone refined by the magicians, so I was surprised too.’

‘In case you doubt it, I’ll give you one more piece of evidence. Here, a new type of magic stone that can only be crafted by our mystic. It’s a recovery stone.’

3 maintenance, 8 change, 1 addition.

With this, the occultists made the case that their technology was not stolen, but was completely new.

Because of this, patent law has lost its meaning.

Under the current law, there is a high probability that the secret committee’s technology will be registered as completely new.

“You are very careful.”

Charles had a somewhat admiring expression.

“okay. Be careful.”

A strange color flowed from Shin In-hyuk’s eyes.

“And the four-character idiom ‘Yonguijudo’ doesn’t suit Sanghyeon.”

Shin In-hyeok is friends with Sang-chul Sang, the head of the mysterious family.

As they have been close friends for decades, there was some exchange with Sang-hyeon Sang, who is 3 years younger than Sang-cheol Sang.

That’s why I know exactly how much Sanghyeon Sang’s bowl is.

“Well, this board isn’t made by Sanghyun Sang.”

Sang-hyun Sang-hyun is not a talented enough person to make such a near-perfect board.

If he had this level of ability, there is no way that Sang-cheol Sang-cheol would not have appointed Sang-hyeon Sang-hyun as an executive.

The reason behind this incident is different.

“okay. There is someone manipulating Sang-hyeon behind the scenes. And that’s a hound. Like you said, it’s very likely to be the Black Mage Tower.”

He has enough skills to improve 8 types of magic stone refining methods.

You can extract top-secret information from the magic house.

An existence that has enough position to make Sanghyun Sang as a puppet.

There are only black magic towers.

“If you add Sofia-sama’s affirmation to that, it’s almost 100%. What you say is the truth.”

In addition to the circumstantial evidence, even the affirmation of a credible figure named Sophia.

There is no longer any doubt.

“I think you’re more careful than they are?”

Charles stuck out his tongue.

They admired Shin In-hyeok’s rational judgment and cool-headed flow of thought.

“Anyway, thank you for trusting me even now. What will it be now?”

“I didn’t really trust you. I believed the current situation and my eyes.”

“Whatever. Aren’t good things good?”

Charles shrugged.

“So what is the conclusion? Do you think you can stop it?”

Can you stop the Secret Service from registering patents for 11 new types of magic stone refining rights?

It was a question with such meaning.

“It’s hard like this. I think we can drive it into a half fight, but… … .”

not half-and-half

“There is a high possibility that the judges as well as the moderators were bribed. Half of it will be hard.”

“okay. That’s the problem.”

Shin In-hyeok’s expression sank even more.

‘If Sanghyeon is a puppet of the Black Mage Tower, I can’t let him strengthen his position.’

If Sang-hyun Sang develops a little more position here, he will become a force capable of opposing Sang-cheol Sang.

If that happens, the Black Mage Tower will begin to intervene in earnest, and Sanghyeon Sang will take over the Mystery Guard.

Then it becomes a nuisance in many ways.

In order to prevent that, this negotiation today must be stopped.

Stopping the first step is the most important thing.

“… … .”

That was when Shin In-hyeok’s brain started spinning at the speed of light.

smart.

with a knocking sound.

“father. It is a low rate.”

Shin Ha-yul’s voice was heard outside the door.

“!”

Charles and Shin In-hyeok’s eyes became wide at the same time.

Charles rushed over and opened the door.

“New Taesik! You woke up!”

Then, with a happy heart, he hugged Shin Ha-yul.

“yes. Sorry for the delay.”

“no. Well, can enlightenment be controlled by oneself? What do you have to be sorry for?”

Charles smiled with a happy expression.

“okay. Did you get any results?”

“… … Great.”

At that time, Shin In-hyeok, who had been quiet in the back, cleared his throat.

It was an unspoken pressure on Charles to do it moderately and leave.

“Your father. Isn’t your style a bit global?”

Charles secretly whispered that into Shin Ha-yul’s ear, and immediately took off his body.

Shin Ha-yul, who became free, moved to Shin In-hyeok.

“Sorry for worrying you.”

“Did you come right here as soon as you woke up?”

“yes.”

“Without a little more rest.”

“it’s okay. My condition is not that bad.”

I was wearing A.S on the way back, and my condition was somewhat restored. Of course it’s not in good shape.

“It doesn’t seem like a situation where you can rest.”

A bright light flowed from Shin Ha-yul’s eyes.

Confident and confident eyes.

Seeing those eyes, Shin In-hyeok let out an exclamation of ‘ho-oh’.

“You speak as if you understand how things are going.”

“I heard about the situation from Mr. Seok-hyeon on the way.”

If he had met Seok-hyun Kim on the way there, he might have finished grasping the situation.

“Even though I know the situation, that confidence… … .”

Despite knowing this situation without an answer, he is confident and overflows with confidence.

that means that.

“You must have thought of something.”

It was said that he had a solution to this situation.

“yes. However, there is a method that came to mind.”

Shin Ha-yul smiled and affirmed.

“If my father will trust me, I will completely turn this negotiation upside down.”
