077
You caught a black magician who was mimicking as an Olympiad official?
“Where and how did you get it? What is the status of the spy you caught?”
Since it was additional information, I thought it would be no big deal.
I don’t think I could have directly seized the evidence.
“For now, has it been confirmed that the spy belongs to the Black Mage Tower? If not… … .”
“now. Calm down for now. You are so excited.”
Kim Kang-in waved his hand down and sent a gesture to calm down.
“sorry. The news was so sudden that I stopped without realizing it.”
I was definitely too excited. I immediately calmed down.
“I understand. When I first heard this news from James, I had the same reaction as Ha Yul.”
Kangin Kim glanced at James and smiled bitterly.
“First of all, to answer Hayul’s question, the spy was caught during a final check at the siege arena.”
“How did you get caught?”
Black magicians’ ability to imitate is unmatched.
As long as you hide the black mana, there is nothing to take.
If your identity is clear here, there is nothing more to be caught.
This is why Leng Smith was able to hide in Obelisk Academy for years.
How the hell did you find them?
“hmm. Another management team caught me trying to install something. He said.”
catch the scene
“Did you figure out what you were trying to install?”
“yes. This is it.”
Kim Kang-in took out an unusually shaped hexagonal board on the table.
It was treated magically, and it was a magic board full of all sorts of magic circles and spells.
I activated the divine eye and analyzed the magic circle of the board.
“Detonation Magic… … It even has a strengthening spell that resonates with other things to increase its explosive power.”
At my words, Kim Kang-in and James’ eyes widened a little.
“Ohh. You can understand this complicated spell at a glance.”
“This… … That’s kind of surprising.”
I was surprised by the power of my demonic eye.
My father, on the other hand, showed no sign of surprise at all.
Just like water flows from top to bottom, she has a very calm expression, as if she thinks it’s only natural that I read the magic formula of this magic board.
“I can see a small amount of black mana in the black magic tower… … . It seems certain.”
“Ha Yul-kun’s mystic eye can see that too.”
“… … Hmm.”
Kim Kang-in admired, and James stroked his chin as if he was interested.
“Oh, and I don’t think I need to tell you, but the information about my magic eyes you saw here is confidential.”
“Obviously. Don’t worry, Dahlia won’t even open her mouth.”
The ball is the ball and the four who live.
That’s what James Peeler always says.
The possibility that the owner of the Red Mage Tower will personally use the information obtained from the handling of the case related to the Black Mage Tower converges to 0%.
“So what happened to the warlock who got caught installing this?”
Confirmed that this is solid evidence. The key now is to get the person who installed this clear evidence to spit out the information.
… … only.
“Unfortunately, he died upon arrest.”
“Is that so too?”
Even those caught as spies in the Black Mage Tower have not survived.
It seems that this time was no exception. As I expected, the spy was no longer of this world.
Also, the black mage tower must have removed the spy who was arrested in a mysterious way.
“It’s a pity that I couldn’t interrogate… … . We should be satisfied that we have solid evidence.”
“yes.”
As Kim Kang-in said, now is not a situation to regret.
I brushed off the regret that had been creeping up on me at once and changed my thinking.
“Then the key now is what the Black Mage Tower guys are trying to do at the Olympiad.”
“That’s right.”
With this spy arrest case, it became clear that the target of the Black Mage Tower was Olympiad.
Then, what do we have to think about now, what are the Black Mage Tower guys aiming for in the Olympiad?
That is, the purpose of terrorism.
“These scumbags have only one reason to aim for the Olympiad.”
My father, who had been silent with his arms crossed, spoke with sharp eyes.
“Abduction of promising candidates to secure materials for human experimentation.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
The expressions of the two tower masters became cold at the same time.
James frowned at the disgust at the word human experimentation, but Kim Kang-in’s frown had a slightly different meaning.
“House Shin In-hyeok. There is no need to say such a thing in Ha Yul’s presence… … .”
Did you have to say such disgusting things in front of me? It was a frown to claim this.

“Even Ha-yul already knows about the black magic tower’s human experiment. I showed you the report two years ago.”
Kangin Kim’s pupils dilated a little.
“The report of the experiment… … You showed me two years ago?”
“okay.”
“To a 16-year-old minor… You mean?”
“okay.”
Kim Kang-in’s expression became even colder.
“… … Are you sane?”
“Is there any problem? I just gave you what you need to know.”
“That’s what a father would do… … !”
Kim Kang-in reacted even more fiercely to his father’s calm reaction.
But even that was fleeting.
Within a second, Kim Kang-in regained his composure.
“after. no. It’s not like you’re talking about other people’s family affairs. sorry.”
It was the ability to control emotions that was close to perfect.
“I’m glad you know. Be careful next time.”
“… … yes.”
A strange air current swirled between the two pupils.
James was looking at them both amusedly.
“Returning the story, I think the purpose of the warlocks is to appropriate the experimental materials. Otherwise, there is no reason to aim for the Olympiad.”
“… … I want to deny it That is the most reasonable hypothesis.”
Kim Kang-in frowned with an expression of disgust.
“Talented and young mages make the best research material… … . Tsk. Thinking about it again, I feel like I’m going to vomit.”
James is gritting his teeth and expressing his anger.
By the way, the words the Red Mage Tower lord was muttering now were when he attacked the human experimentation site of the Black Mage Tower in the past. That is what was written in the report obtained there.
I thought back to the human experiment report I received from my father and read it, and organized my thoughts.
‘Certainly, if the purpose is to replenish experimental materials, there’s no better time to aim than the Olympiad.’
The World Academia Olympiad, a great festival where talented people from all over the world gather.
From the perspective of the Black Mage Tower, the Olympiad would be a kind of buffet.
An ultra-luxurious buffet filled with all kinds of high-end experimental materials.
“Then how should I respond?”
“The best thing would be to cancel this year’s Olympiad, but… … .”
Kangin Kim replied to James Peeler’s words.
“That is impossible. The United States, of course, will not allow it.”
Following the two, the father gave his opinion.
“I guess so. As it is a festival that targets the whole world, the budget that went into it is huge.”
“It’s a matter of pride rather than budget. The U.S. will not back down at the mere threat of terrorism. It’s clear what this is.”
James Peeler shook his head. It seemed like something had been done to the US government.
“If you notice that there will be terrorism, you just have to be as careful as possible… is it. That’s what the US government would say.”
So did my father.
From the point of view of running a business, the US government is a thorn in the eye.
There are no good words to come out.
“Then the realistic countermeasure would be to strengthen defenses.”
I have provided my final opinion.
“Yes.”
Kangin Kim nodded.
“The US government will not stand still. There will be nothing to worry about.”
After that, the three exchanged opinions, each offering reasonable countermeasures.
From the idea of sharing the current situation to the heads of state to form a common front, to a book suggesting that the United States and the International Counterterrorism Response Headquarters respond only because it can become more messy.
Opinions with sharply divided pros and cons were exchanged according to individual tendencies.
I also presented opinions that I thought were okay in between.
I was very careful about expressing opinions because every aspect was different.
“hmm. Well, for now, this should be enough.”
About an hour passed like that.
The war of words called dialogue has come to an end. I thought it would take an hour just to come up with a light compromise.
‘Really, all three types are different.’
By analogy, Kim Kang-in is a moderate.
James is a neutral.
My father is a strong man.
Naturally, it was not easy to come to a conclusion.
No, rather, finding a compromise is a miracle.
“Then, I will tell you about what we talked about today in person after negotiating with the US government.”
“Then I can negotiate with the Olympiad headquarters.”
“I negotiate with the International Counterterrorism Headquarters.”
In turn, these were the words of Kim Kang-in, James, and their father.
‘As expected.’
When the conclusion was reached, he was very professional in his work, as if he had never had a bloody battle.

That night.
Returning to the inn, I headed straight to Mimir’s office.
It was to share the newly learned information with Mimir and to hear Mimir’s opinion.
“… … human experiment. They really do not change no matter how many years pass.”
Having heard everything, Mimir clicked his tongue and shook his head.
“First of all, my opinion is the same as that of the heir. Appropriation of material for human experiment. That’s what those scumbags would do.”
“As expected.”
Mimir seemed to have the same thoughts as me.
“Heir. I would like to ask just in case Wouldn’t it be okay to resign from the Olympiad?”
Mimir asked cautiously.
“uh. That’s not allowed.”
I don’t know if the Olympiad itself is canceled. It is impossible for me to resign alone.
“… … Too bad. It’s best to avoid anything dirty.”
Mimir pursed his lips and thought.
“I don’t think you need to worry too much about the danger. As long as the evidence has come out this far, the best military forces of each country will come as an escort. Then, no matter how black it is, I will have no choice but to give up.”
“Do it. If all world-class powers are gathered, the current Black Mage Tower will not be able to compete.”
“The current Black Mage Tower?”
“ah.”
now.
It was something meaningful.
“hmm. No big deal. You can stop worrying about it now.”
Mimir gestured to pretend he hadn’t heard.
It doesn’t mean that Mimir doesn’t want to talk like that. That would be something I still can’t say.
“Then, what do you mean the heir has nothing to do?”
“right. This is not my business.”
I don’t know if it was a personal quarrel with me due to a request from Shin Ji-han.
This time, it is a large-scale battle between the Black Mage Tower and World Power.
It seems that there is nothing for me to do under this structure.
“So you’re saying we’re going with the original plan?”
“no. I’m going to change my plans a bit.”
By the way, the plan Mimir mentioned here is not an Olympiad-related plan, but a circle growth plan that Mimir and I made together.
“The great work of the Black Mage Tower is the great work. Shin Ji-han’s request is a request. There is a possibility that a male and female will come to me taking advantage of the confusion of this cause.”
Even if it wasn’t the Black Magic Tower, I had to think about the possibility that the assassin Shin Ji-han recruited would take advantage of the confusion and aim for me.
“Terrorism is also a mass of variables. As I said yesterday, in order to prepare for the variable, I have to raise my strength even a little bit.”
The one who can respond most organically to variables is none other than myself. In a dangerous situation like this, you have to be a little stronger no matter what.
“Then how about getting into the pages of the fourth exam a little faster?”
“uh.”
Originally, I planned to go in after I had a little more time to prepare for the full bloom.
As long as the situation is the situation, it’s not good to be too relaxed.
“When are you coming in?”
“I’m going to finish preparing as much as possible and go in the day before the Olympiad.”
Renew the Book of Idred before the start of the Olympiad, and get a clue about the 5th Circle.
This is the best preparation I can do.
