– Welcome to the 50th floor of trials.
– Topic: Grand Festival (5): 10 Great Horse Pagodas of Coral Pagoda
– You have achieved 100 victories in the Moraf Grand Festival and have been granted the opportunity to challenge one of the great axes of history.
– Prove your worth to everyone on one of the great axes of history!
It’s a different feeling when you climb the floors and move on to the next ordeal.
I felt extremely dizzy, so I closed my eyes tightly. When I opened them again, a huge tower was in front of me.
‘oh…….’
That is the subject of this ordeal, the coral tower, mentioned in the ordeal.
It was also the place where the most powerful force existed in this dimension where magic was developed.
‘It’s not called Coral Tower for nothing.’
The tower was beautiful, like a long coral blooming in the sea.
I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration at the lifelike appearance, as if it had been magically worked.
The area surrounding the tower was surrounded by beautiful forests and trees, giving it a truly ‘fantasy’ appearance.
“Ahem, it looks like the last contestant has arrived.”
“Is the author the last participant?”
“Looking at you, you seem like a bunch of idiots with no affiliation. Ha! Is someone like that qualified to challenge the Coral Tower?”
“It’s a bad habit to judge a person by their appearance.”
“Isn’t that what it looks like? Look at that figure. It looks more like a mercenary than a wizard.”
When I turned my head in the direction where the voice came from, I saw dozens of people.
Although they each had their own unique characteristics, what they had in common was that most of them were wearing long cloaks.
Perhaps, that is the basic attire of the wizards here.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’
Seun was also wearing a cloak, although his form was different from theirs. To be exact, a cloak.
It’s an S-class cloak that you get as a reward for completing the tutorial, so there’s absolutely no way you can beat it.
However, judging by his dismissive tone, it seems like he is acting like that because of the dust on his uniform after playing in the game.
– The stability of ‘Clean Shower’ is strengthened according to the principle of the Blue Tower.
A small vortex formed on Seun’s palm and enveloped his entire body.
Warm water droplets seeped into the clothes and escaped with the dust, allowing the warm wind to dry the clothes.
Equipment that looks like new in an instant.
In particular, the coat of arms looked especially beautiful with its original deep red color and the golden dragon pattern engraved in the center.
It goes without saying that it looks much more valuable and precious than the cloak worn by the wizard who had just been laughing at Seun.
Naturally, the wizard’s expression crumpled when he noticed this.
“It looks like the wandering kid found some good clothes somewhere.”
“Haha, what a beautiful cloak. I’m tempted to get my hands on it.”
“Why would I want something like that? It’s obvious just by looking at it.”
Although we haven’t even talked yet, I was able to roughly figure out their distribution.
Those sitting on the luxurious-looking wooden chairs on the left, wearing luxurious cloaks, are wizards belonging to some place.
Those lying or standing freely on the right side, conversing, are wandering magicians who do not belong anywhere.
Honestly, I could tell this fact right away just by looking at the pattern engraved on the cloak.
‘The top lord of the Coral Tower. This will be a more important match than you think.’
I heard that the owner of the Coral Tower, chosen based on merit, has the strongest power in this dimension.
In other words, the map of the continent will change depending on who becomes the top lord.
If an imperial wizard becomes the tower lord, the prestige of that empire will rise rapidly.
When a magician from a magic tower becomes the tower lord, that magic tower will become identified with the Coral Tower and enjoy the greatest prosperity.
If a wandering wizard with a bad temper becomes the tower lord, chaos may fall on the continent.
Since independent wizards were not particularly guaranteed of character, affiliated wizards had no choice but to be wary.
“Okay, everyone, be quiet.”
“You said it starts at noon… … so soon.”
It seems that Se-Woon was transported to the time just before the start of the Top Ju selection ceremony.
The sun was shining on the top of the coral tower, leaving no time to prepare or gauge the opponent.
Woof-.
Abundant mana flowed from the coral tower.
The concentration was so thick that the surrounding area rippled with mana as if it were submerged in the sea.
The corals that make up the coral tower bloom like flowers, catching the sunlight. And at the top… … .
“Oh, he’s coming down.”
“That person is the 9th Lord of the Coral Tower, Coral Abyss.”
An old man of great age came down.
The sight of him descending very slowly, controlling his falling speed like a wizard, was like seeing a fairy.
A commotion arose where he came down.
I don’t know if it’s a modified magic rather than the normal fly, or if it’s a natural phenomenon that occurs while spinning the circle, but one thing is certain.
‘Are you a fire wizard?’
That he was an expert in the fire world magic.
7th Circle… … No, judging by the level that cannot even be guessed, it is clear that he is a wizard of 8th Circle or higher.
If it’s around 7 circles, Seun would have recognized it even if the circles were different.
Indeed, the coral tower.
A wizard who reached the 8th circle in a human body… … .

It wasn’t for nothing that the level of magic in this dimension was so high.
“This is my first time seeing you in person.”
“Is that the fire god I’ve only heard of? Indeed, the heat is incredible.”
“If we only consider fighting power, he is the strongest among all the Coral Tower Lords, right?”
“They say that the spires that previously rebelled against the Coral Tower were destroyed by that inspiration’s magic.”
Even before the tower lord reached the ground, the wizards’ comments continued.
Seun, who had absolutely no information about this place, focused his hearing and eavesdropped on their whispers.
As Se-un had felt, the top master seemed to be a magician well-versed in the fire attribute.
As the tower lord got closer to the ground, the wizards’ chattering gradually decreased, and the moment the tower lord landed lightly on the ground, the surroundings became extremely quiet.
The 9th Heavenly Tower of the Coral Tower. In front of the incarnation, Coral Abyss, no one could speak carelessly.
Naturally, the first one to speak was the owner of the coral tower.
As if he had grown old, a deep, old voice flowed from his mouth.
“Haa… … Time has passed so quickly. Since I don’t see any familiar faces of wizards, I guess it must be time.”
Hwaruk-.
Without any special casting, a fireworks lit up behind him.
The flame soon took the shape of a chair, and the tower lord sat down on the chair and continued to rage.
“Yeah, everyone’s gathered here… … .”
“Hello! It’s an honor to meet you. I too am from the same Hwatap as you, Lord Topju… .”
“you…….”
“……yes?”
“I don’t think I have the skills to stand here.”
“Oh, no! I am the son of the 28th Lord of the Tower of Fire, Redive… … .”
Hurrah!
“Cough!”
The flames emanating from the tower pushed the young wizard away.
It seemed as if he had no intention of killing, but that alone caused the young wizard to be thrown far away and lose consciousness.
As expected from the owner of the Coral Tower, he doesn’t care about school ties at all.
In some ways, it was an extremely desirable sight.
“Now… … it’s an even number.”
When the young wizard fainted, no one dared to open their mouths, but simply lowered their heads and listened to the tower lord’s words.
“Then… … let’s begin the selection ceremony.”
Bam.
The tower master touched the ground with his staff. Then, a wave of fierce flames spread out around him.
It wasn’t an ordinary fire, as it didn’t feel hot even when hit by flames.
I don’t know if he used spatial magic or simply burned the surrounding area with fire, but that one spell changed the terrain around him.
From a forest where green sparkles to a dry empty lot.
It was the perfect place for wizards to train.
“There is only one condition. You must defeat the enemy using magic.”
Far away, at the edge of my vision, a flame blazed so large it seemed as if it would reach the sky. Perhaps, that flame meant that it was at the very edge of the stadium.
Due to the nature of the wizard being able to use large-scale magic, the size of the arena was completely different from that of the fighting tournament.
“You’ve already hit a wall, but if you’re confident, it’s okay to go over it.”
If you can overcome it, try to overcome it.
It was a confident statement, but none of them dared to step over the wall of flames.
The one called the Incarnation. Because it was the flame of the one called the most powerful magician on the continent.
“There are no separate waiting or viewing seats, so please avoid them as much as you can.”
The entire area inside the wall of flames is a stadium.
What this means is that the aftereffects of the match can also affect the magicians watching inside the stadium.
These are conditions that are clearly different from the fighting tournaments that were under the protection of the system.
“I don’t mind using martial arts, but I won’t tolerate using any power other than mana.”
Finally, the rule that Seun had been worried about popped up.
Do not use any power other than mana.
Not only was it impossible to use internal energy, but it also seemed impossible to use divinity.
For example, Ruin or Turik, who are imbued with the stigmata, cannot join either.
However, the fortunate thing was that the power of the demons that Seun originally used was a separate concept from using divinity, so it seemed like it wouldn’t matter.
“I think you all understand this. If you don’t understand this, then you are as good as unqualified.”
That’s how Topju’s explanation ended.
He leans back comfortably in his chair made of fire as if he has done everything he had to do.
But, one important thing is missing.
‘What’s the bracket?’
In the first place, since we had just heard about the stadium and the rules, there was no way things like a proper bracket would have been created.
However, no one could open their mouths because they remembered the existence of the wizard who had been engulfed in flames and blown away when he first opened his mouth.
It was evidence that everyone here was in awe of the tower lord.
In this situation, there is only one person who can open his mouth.
“What is the bracket?”
It was just set up.
From Seun’s perspective, the tower owner’s existence is just that of a strong magician.
The wizard who was initially defeated was kicked out because he lacked skills, not because he spoke to them.
That means there is no reason to be afraid.
“Ah, somehow. That’s why everyone was just standing there blankly. If there’s something you don’t know, just say something. And yet you call yourself a wizard. How foolish.”
Topju sighs and shakes his head.
The wizards looked aggrieved, but no one stood up to complain.
“Well said. First, you and I.”
A tower owner who points out Seun as if he were doing a favor.
As the saying goes, the square peg gets hit, so I went first and ended up playing the first game.
Since I didn’t know anything about it other than what was written in the trials and the brief explanation I heard from the commentator at the grand festival, I wanted to participate in the latter half of the event if possible and watch the other magicians’ matches.
“There you are, you loser.”
The wizard’s eyebrows twitched when he heard that he was a loser.
Even so, I couldn’t go against the owner of the coral tower, so I quietly stepped forward.
A familiar face compared to other wizards.
It was the magician who first pointed out Seun’s attire as soon as he arrived at this place.
“The first game will be easy. Come out, country bumpkin.”
A wizard who takes out his staff and laughs for a long time, as if he likes the fact that he’s been chosen as Seun’s opponent.
At that sight, Se-Woon also smiled faintly and stepped forward.
‘Let’s use that guy to roughly get a feel for the game.’
