Episode 181
“First of all, to answer the question that Paltheon Supreme Council member asked, yes. I am correct. “I brought down Derinkuyu.”
“••••••also.”
At my immediate answer, Paltheon’s Supreme Council member’s eyes lit up.
He was confident that his insight was not wrong.
At the same time, the gathered committee members
He showed curiosity towards me.
“If it’s Derinkuyu, isn’t it a place where yakshas are? It must not have been a very cozy place… …
“It is a place that has been growing its power knowingly or unknowingly by colluding with the corrupt nobles of the four surrounding countries. There were many analyzes that within the next 10 years, they would break out of the shadowy underworld and expand their influence into the sunny area.”
“You brought down a place like that by yourself, without the help of other forces? “I don’t know whether to believe this or not.”
“Lies are not tolerated here.
all. “You have to believe what the candidate says.”
“Hmm, yes, but… … “Can you tell me in a little more detail?”
Clearly, when I entered this place, the atmosphere was close to an ‘interrogation’ type.
The six people who agreed did not agree to me becoming the top owner.
Because I have agreed to verify my existence as a ‘candidate’.
To exaggerate a bit… … .
‘This young guy is a candidate? Let’s hear how great it is.’
I would say it was this kind of atmosphere.
However, even though I had just started introducing myself, the atmosphere became considerably more mellow.
no.
He even began to show considerable curiosity.
It was a good thing for me, and I answered with a slight smile.
“There was nothing special. All I had to do was subdue one Yaksha. “We simply subdued the yaksha and demolished the outer wall of the Derinkuyu cave.”
“Easier said than done, the army consists only of yakshas.
Isn’t that true? “I don’t think it would be possible on my own.”
“I wasn’t alone. “I had a friend who gave me a lot of crucial help.”
“A friend who helped me? “May I ask who that is?”
“… … Do I really have to tell you?”
When I hesitated to talk about Strang, the highest council member of the Reinak Empire, as if he thought it was the right time, stood up and spoke.
“This is a position where all the qualities a candidate possesses are openly verified. Refusing to open up about yourself
“If so, the arrow will eventually return to the candidate himself.”
A place to tell everything about myself.
Yes, this is not wrong.
This is not a place to tell lies.
The ‘Milli’s Oath’, in which the wizard swears not to lie, but instead refuses to answer, does not work.
It is a position of absolute ‘verification’.
Therefore, I had no choice but to briefly tell you about Strang.
“… … “Let’s just say it’s a spirit.”
Strang was initially sealed in a spirit stone… … .
Incarnation or spirit.
It’s not wrong.
“Uh, spirit?”
“Are you saying that the candidate also deals with spirits?”
The first reaction that came out from the committee members was that they were amazed.
Although the existence of ‘spirit people｝’ is precious, it is not surprising enough for ■ to pop up like this.
It is very rare to see ‘spirits’ in the southern part of the continent, but there is a story that there are more spiritists than wizards in the ‘Snow Country Eisenhour’ in the northern part of the continent and the ‘East Forest’, a vast forest area in the northeast.
There is something else that really surprised them.
“A wizard can handle spirits… … . “Is this really possible?”
The point is that wizards deal with spirits.
Just as a wizard cannot manipulate auras, it is impossible for a wizard to manipulate spirits.
Because it’s a clever story.
‘That’s because it’s not a spirit, but an incarnation.’
I looked at the dean with a troubled expression.
The dean, who knew at least a little about Strang’s existence, nodded as if it was okay.
This probably means that everyone here is trustworthy.
I scratched the bridge of my nose and opened my mouth.
“Yes, I will tell you. “It is not a spirit, but an ‘incarnation.’”
Then, tsk tsk!
Strang, who was on my shoulder, suddenly popped forward and transformed into a humanoid.
A human that suddenly appears out of thin air.
“Hee, hee!”
He was so surprised that the highest council member of the Reinak Empire fell backwards and screamed.
Strang crossed his arms and snorted as if he were being amused.
“why? “Is this your first time seeing Hwashin?”
Her voice is comparable to that of God
There was an air of dignity.

Interrogation, curiosity, surprise.
The ever-changing mindset of the committee members came to an end with one final decision.
Wonder.
“ha ha ha… … Incarnation… …
“Did Commissioner Tyrion know about this?”
“Yeah, well… … . I knew it. that
“I believe you will understand the circumstances that I could not tell you about.”
“This is what happened… … ! You’re the Avatar… … ! “I never thought God existed.”
There was no member of the committee who doubted that Strang was the Avatar.
The Dean was the first to guarantee it, and Strang was able to freely transform his appearance without using any magic.
However, there was something more surprising than the fact that the Avatar existed.
as soon as.
“My answer is, is this enough?”
There is a wizard who can freely use the Avatar.
The 10 committee members nodded in unison to my question, and I answered with a grin.
“I don’t want any unnecessary rumors to spread about Strang. The same goes for me.”
“I understand.”
“Then, let me introduce myself.”
I lightly raised my arm and started the magic.
The most basic fireball came to mind, and I grabbed it tightly.
“I am here as a candidate for tower owner, but I am not the typical wizard you think. Maybe he’s the most unqualified wizard. See, even this little bit of magic can’t be released.”
The fireball that floated in my hand didn’t move even 10cm, but none of the committee members were disappointed to see me like this.
‘Ruin Ardel = Magic Discharge Disorder.’
This level of information has already been acquired.
It has arrived.
Rather, they were looking forward to what I would show them now.
“But I can destroy a mountain with just this fireball.”
I plan to meet those expectations.
“Mr. Stray Cat.”
“Yes, candidate.”
“What is the first verification I need to do?”
“The ‘8 classes’ that were only rumored
“This is to confirm the authenticity of the magic.”
“Let’s do it, right now.”
As soon as I answered, the Supreme Council members began casting magic all at once.
Pure white light emanated from the bottom of the magic tower and the space was distorted, transforming into a completely new space.
It is not a simple ‘illusion’.
The top of the Wizard’s Tower, which was not built to be finite in the first place, becomes an infinite space like this when mana is added.
The wizards of the Magic Tower call it ‘microcosm’
It was called.
“In a microcosm, time flows randomly, but space has no meaning. All you have to do is show us the ultimate ‘8th Class’ here.”
microcosm.
A place where everything I imagine exists.
When I thought of the mountain in the midst of pitch-black darkness, the ‘South Mountain’ surrounding the eastern side of Ardel spread out before my eyes.
I stood in front of this huge mountain range holding only a very small fireball in my hand.
stood alone in
This is a world of ‘nothingness’ where anything can exist, but ultimately nothing exists.
No need for any modifiers.
There is no need for force control.
I jumped lightly and punched with all my might.
“oh! Oh oh!”
Kukwaang-!
From the tip of the fist, a terrifying power comparable to 27,000 exploded, and in the wake of that power, a tempest swirled around the area.
all.
“San, San… …
Thanks to this, a pothole was created in the middle of South Mountain, which boasted dense forests.
“Wow, you’re crazy. “This is just a fireball?”
“Well, the candidate is very strong, but… … . It is still too much to conclude that he is a class 8 wizard based on this alone… …
“Just keep quiet and watch.”
But, it’s just the beginning.
I lightly shook off my wrist and flicked my right finger.
Then, a flame of deterioration appeared.
“Me, Meteor… … !”
Some say that casting Meteor requires dozens of seconds of casting time.
I didn’t need even a single second of casting time.
A flawless magic with nothing that cannot be destroyed.
Meteor.
I lifted this huge meteor upward and lightly lifted my left hand.
Then, screams of astonishment erupted from the committee members who were watching me.
“Two, two!”
“There are two meteors!”
“Oh, this can’t be right…” … Ugh, how did something like that happen… … !”
There is not one Meteor, but two.
I created two blazing meteors with the power to devour the world.
He lifted it up and looked at the committee members.
Expectations have already been met.

How does a son who lost his father feel?
For a young boy, it would feel like he lost the whole world.
For a young man who was taking after his father, it must be the pain of losing his heart.
An old man who grew old with his father might feel fortunate that he could send you away while he was still alive.
All of these emotions are completely normal emotions.
“… … “Why are you shedding tears?”
“Well, that…” …
The Imperial Crown Prince, Schomertan Reinach, could not shed a single tear because he did not understand this extremely normal emotion.
Rather, he reacted to the death of the emperor (皇帝)
He was asking the wailing subjects.
Why are you crying when I, my son, am not crying?
“S-sorry.”
The subjects felt goosebumps rising, but they could not show it.
Because this man in front of me was now a new sky.
“It’s empty.”
The emperor died.
The ‘Iron-Blooded Lord’ who had led the empire for decades died, but that was the only sentiment of his son, the Crown Prince.
all.
It’s empty.
“… … “It’s like the wall disappeared.”
The huge ‘wall’ that was blocking your path has disappeared.
It has to be empty.
The Crown Prince glanced at the Moran Palace, which was in ruins due to Flame King Theron’s terror.
There was no need to take it to heart.
Doesn’t he already have a new home?
“let’s go. “I’m curious about the new house.”
“Your Majesty the Crown Prince! We haven’t even finished the emperor’s funeral yet… …
“… … “Prince?”
The crown prince’s gaze became strangely distorted, and the subject who was giving him advice realized that he had made a mistake.
What use is a funeral?
The next emperor has already been decided.
“Say it again.”
“… … So, So-in made a mistake, Woe, Your Majesty… …
“Yes, that’s right.”
The crown prince smiled as if he was satisfied and walked around the palace.
His steps were heading toward the emperor’s sleeping quarters, ‘Taehwangjeon’.
He imagined that with each step he took, the wall that had disappeared due to the emperor’s death was filled with new space.
okay.
Build a wall.
It’s the Wizard’s Tower. It’s the Holy See… … .
Get rid of all those who share the power of the empire and the emperor.
A thick wall that no one can overcome,
build a new one
the emperor asked.
“… … “Did he become the owner of the tower?” A new era has begun in the empire.
