The performance, the highlight of the opening ceremony of the Olympiad, was successfully progressing.
A feast of splendid magic that explodes one after another.
The audience cheered at the series of scenes that seemed to be crafting with magic.
“Crazy! it’s crazy!”
The sight of magic of all kinds exploding one after another like a fireworks display was so ecstatic that it could not be described in words.
“If the 4th circle is this good, how great are the 5th and 6th circle mages?”
This sincere question popped up among some in the audience.
To think that such large-scale magic could be performed consecutively with 4-circle magic.
It was just amazing.
“It’s a magic that puts everything aside for power and invests in effects. Originally, a 4th circle mage couldn’t use such large-scale magic.”
All the magic unfolding now is a hollow gangjeong.
A magic formula modified to look splendid only for performance.
Because the most important power in magic was excluded, it was possible to use magic of that scale.
“Did the engineer on the Italian team say it was the Venezia Corporation? The ability to touch the magic formula is considerable. I have to remember.”
“Shall we set up a meeting?”
“Let’s just tune in.”
Between admiring audiences, the cold-hearted appearances of industry officials were also visible.
Rather than admiring the splendid magic performed by the representatives of each country, they were thinking of the engineer behind the idea who conceived and algorithmized such a magic formula, and even completed transplanting it to artificial intelligence.
“How much mana?”
“I went over the 4th circle. It seems that the ability to create artifacts is also excellent.”
If you have that level of skill, you might be able to make a deal.
The engineers on that team are terrible.
With that thought in mind, we are in the process of selecting partners who can go together in the future.
“I can look forward to this year as well.”
“yes.”
This is the significance of the Olympiad opening ceremony performance.
The audience is captivated and uplifted by the splendid magic presented by each country.
Teams of engineers in each country can appeal their skills to officials in other countries.
Officials from each country can select decent partners.
Three birds with one stone.
No, considering the meaning of enhancing the national prestige of each country, it can be said that it is one stone.
“oh. The next American team.”
After the turn of the dozen or so teams, it was the turn of the American team to show the performances they had prepared.
As much as the expectations for the US team, the excitement of the audience grew even more.
“This is worth seeing.”
This time, Han Hae-sun officials were the same as the audience.
As if when they evaluated other teams, their eyes became like those of an audience who came to see a concert.
“I don’t know what the Red Mage Tower has prepared this year… … .”
It was natural.
The engineer presenting a performance this time is a red magic tower.
It is not an organization that industry officials can dare to evaluate.
All they are allowed to do is admire.
Roaring-!
At that moment, flames rose in the sky.
A flame large enough to cover the entire ceiling of a large stadium that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
“Waaaaaa!”
The audience’s voice grew even louder at the fire of a different size than before.
Dahlia Salentia appeared under the flames.
Her red long hair flutters to the fullest, and she stands at the center of the stadium with confident steps.
and that moment.
The flames roared.
The sky forgot the color blue.
The sky, dyed redder than the sunset, swayed and changed its appearance.
“… … rose?”
As if to celebrate this festival, the flames that had filled the sky turned into hundreds of roses, filling the sky.
“pretty… … .”
“Wow.”
The audience’s jaws dropped wide at the beautiful sight.
The center of that dreamy landscape.
Dalia Salentia, who was looking up at the sky with a bright smile, raised one hand high.
That was when it started.
“it’s crazy! This is crazy!”
“Oh, my God!”
Led by her hand, the flames moved as if they were dancing.
It was as if the whole arena was playing in her hands.
sometimes pitifully.
sometimes flashy.

sometimes grandly.
The serenade of flames performed by conductor Dalia Salentia lasted for five minutes.
“Waaaaaaaa!!”
“dahlia! dahlia! dahlia!”
“The greatest ever, this is the greatest ever!”
The performance she presented was evaluated as the best ever, throughout the 107th Olympiad.
And that evaluation after 20 minutes.
“Kyle! Kyle! Kyle!”
“Waaaaaa!”
It was repeated again at the time when Kyle Benthia, representative of the British team, came out.
“This year has been really crazy!”
“The British team and the American team also played! It turned!”
In this way, the atmosphere of the opening ceremony went beyond the peak and began to transcend the threshold.
* * *
“… … crazy.”
The atmosphere in the waiting room for the Korean team was the worst. A gloominess almost as if a portrait of some kind had arisen.
Everyone is bursting out laughing and exclamation one after another.
“From Dahlia to Kyle… … .”
The reason they react this way is simple.
Currently, the level of performances presented by each country is too high.
Especially the UK and USA.
The level of the two teams, supported by the Green and Red Magic Towers respectively, pierced the atmosphere as well as the sky.
“How much effort did you put into the performance… … .”
I knew that the level of the performance that could be shown would be different because the representative was from the 5th circle.
This isn’t a problem at that level.
It was as if a professional player had invaded a junior tournament for under 12 years old.
Kyle and Dahlia’s performances were really different.
“… … The Internet is already saying that it is the best ever.”
Ji Soon-chan laughed and looked at the reaction on the Internet.
Everyone is praised.
The great wizards who are active on social media are also giving all sorts of compliments as if they are frantic.
It was a part that showed how great the performance the two teams showed this time was.
“… … driving me crazy. Are we okay with this?”
Of course, the fact that the United States and Britain are being praised does not make them so gloomy.
“no. I don’t think it’s okay. The Internet is already talking about a Korean team.”
The reason the Korean team became depressed was because the expectations of the audience were so high.
[If the British and American teams are at this level, the Korean team is also at this level, right?]
[of course. The youngest 5th circle user of all time, the blue mage tower was attached as an engineer.]
[You can look forward to it.]
[I hold my breath until then. suck!]
The current situation of the Korean team is surprisingly similar to that of the US and UK teams.
All three have their representative as a 5th circle user, and have a ‘color’ mage tower as an engineer.
In such a situation, the United States and England presented a stage beyond imagination, so it was self-evident that expectations for the Korean team soared.
“… … I’m really going crazy. We didn’t even prepare for our performance.”
“… … Right.”
This situation alone is a burden enough, and a problem enough.
The Korean team has never prepared for a performance.
This is the biggest problem.
“Didn’t you hear anything from your new leader?”
Jin Hee-yoon looked at Adela and Ji Soon-chan and asked.
“yes. I’m not really… … .”
“I just told you not to worry and leave it to me.”
“… … Ah-oh.”
Jin Hee-yoon scratched his head in frustration and impatience.
“I’m going to go really crazy. What the hell are you going to do with the piano?”
“Iknow, right. Suddenly, all of a sudden, I hung up after asking for the piano to be prepared… … .”
One of the main reasons for their anxiety is that Shin Ha-yul asked for a piano to be prepared only on the day.
“If you suddenly ask me to prepare it on the day, doesn’t it just mean that I will do something I just thought of today?”
“… … Common sense makes sense.”
Sudden preparation means ad-libbing. In other words, Shin Ha-yul’s performance is ad-libbed.
“No, more than that, when did he arrive? Our car is due in 15 minutes.”
“I don’t know. First of all, when it was our turn, they asked us to install only the piano in the center of the stadium.”
“… … Oh, it’s frustrating.”
Jin Hee-yoon pounded his chest as if he was frustrated.
“Don’t think too deeply. It’s not like losing a game just because the performance is ruined.”
Ma Jin-seok calmed Jin Hee-yoon.
“And well, our new leader will do well. You always did well.”
“right. The leader who was doing so well suddenly disappeared on the same day.”
“that… … hmm.”
As if Ma Jin-seok had nothing to say, he scratched his cheek.
“eww. I don’t know. Let’s go to set up the piano soon.”
For these complex reasons, the atmosphere within the Korean team was very stagnant.
* * *
Olympiad special VIP seats.
Among them, a man and a woman were fighting a battle of nerves in the VVIP stands, which were only available to officials.
“You’re doing something.”
One was the red mage lord, James Piller.
“James. You do too.”
The other was Min Ga-yeon, the owner of the green mage tower.
“I was thinking of pressing the bridge of your nose with words this time… … . It’s a pity.”
“That is what I am going to say. This time, I thought to show the difference in rank. I’m so sorry.”
Black hair, black eyes.
Although it is a woman who only looks like a native Korean, her nationality is definitely British.
“I don’t like it, but I’ll have to draw it this time.”
“okay. It’s really not intentional, but I have to admit it. I think it’s a draw this time.”
You don’t have to say it, but you know, these two are bad.
Almost anything, water and oil.
They will never mix unless there is a neutralizer between them.
“Why isn’t Kangin here like this?”
The neutralizer who can mediate between the two is Kim Kang-in.
Originally, Kang-in Kim would have intervened between the two, but today Kang-in Kim is away.
“I heard that the Korean representative has a problem and is going to be a little late.”
“Is there a problem?”
Min Ga-yeon tilted her head.
Are there any problems?
“I don’t know if I can’t hear too closely.”
“okay?”
Min Ga-yeon turned her gaze back to the stadium.
The performance of the Brazilian team will soon be over.
Then, the only remaining team is the Korean team.
“If you haven’t come yet… … Aren’t you late?”
That was when Min Ga-yeon muttered.
“Fortunately, it is not too late. haha.”
Kangin Kim walked from behind smiling as usual.
“what. Why are you so late?”
“I had some work. It has now been safely resolved.”
“okay? That’s good.”
Min Ga-yeon smiled.
“long time no see.”
“Long time no see. Sister Ga-yeon.”
As you can tell by just looking at the names, the relationship between the green mage master and the blue mage master is very good.
The person who helped the most in establishing the blue mage tower was also the owner of the green mage tower.
“Coming soon.”
“I know. I had about 2 minutes to spare. You came too soon.”
James’s outstretched fist was met with Kim Kang-in’s fist quietly.
It was a greeting for only two people.
“Did you see the performance?”
“no. I didn’t see it. The situation is not good.”
Kim Kang-in laughed bitterly.
“okay? Missed the good sight.”
“you. What I didn’t see today, I will regret for the rest of my life.”
Min Ga-yeon and James smirked at the same time.
The harsh atmosphere flowing between the two was alleviated somewhat by the intervention of the neutralizer named Kim Kang-in.
“I heard the news. It was the best ever.”
“okay. Be sure to check it out later. You will be surprised too.”
“yes. I will definitely check it out.”
At that moment, the performance of the Brazilian team was over.
Now, only the Korean team is left.
The three eyes focused on Ji Sun-chan, who was carrying the piano to the stadium.
“piano? What are you going to do with the piano?”
Min Ga-yeon asked implicitly.
“hmm. well.”
Kim Kang-in replied with a laugh as if he was having fun.
“what. I hate to tell you is this? meanly.”
“no. It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s that I can’t answer. I don’t know either.”
“… … You don’t know?”
“yes.”
Shin Ha-yul appeared in the arena. Shin Ha-yul dressed up in a stylish suit. Ji Soon-chan passes him by and pats him on the back.
It must mean encouragement.
“Our blue mage tower didn’t interfere at all with Ha Yul’s performance.”
“… … really?”
“Really?”
The two tower masters widened their eyes.
Engineers do not intervene in performance. It was unimaginable for the two of them with common sense.
“yes. In the first place, Hayul-kun is not a wizard who uses artificial intelligence. There is no point in preparing for it.”
“ah. That’s right.”
I heard and saw it.
The reason why engineers have a big impact on performance is because they can imprint magic formulas on artificial intelligence.
Shin Ha-yul, who cannot use artificial intelligence, is an exception to this rule.
“Then, that’s it.”
“Eh. New Kim.”
The two magic tower masters lost interest in an instant. I thought I’d be able to see the blue mage tower’s technical skills.
The blue mage tower didn’t intervene. no need to see this
“well.”
Kim Kang-in’s gaze at Shin Ha-yul sitting in front of the piano became even more intense.
“I don’t think it’s too early to say that.”
“What… … .”
At the moment when the two tower owners were about to ask what it meant to Kim Kang-in’s meaningful words.
Ding-!
The sound of the piano rang.
An ordinary melody that originated from an ordinary act in which Shin Ha-yul only pressed one key.
“This… … .”
A heartfelt thrill arose at the short melody, which must have sounded insignificant.
“Sound rides mana… … ? Are you using mana?”
“What is this… … .”
The eyes of the two magic towers widened, and the corners of Kim Kang-in’s mouth soared even higher.
“Kangin, this is… … .”
The moment the green mage lord tried to ask about this abnormal phenomenon.
Shin Ha-yul’s performance began.
Vivaldi.
the four seasons.
As the song plays on the piano.
“… … spring?”
Spring was in full swing.
