Episode 221
[Hansung Pharmaceutical solves the problem of insufficient supply of magic stones. Hanseong Development has not yet resolved the problem.]
[Rumors of discord between Han Se-jin, vice chairman of Hansung Group, and Han Se-yeon, head of Hansung Pharmaceuticals. Is this the beginning of a sibling feud over management rights?]
Se-yeon Han was lost in complicated thoughts while reading news articles on the Internet.
I thought I had hidden it well until now
Greed for management rights.
Starting with this competition to supply magic stones, his hidden purpose was being reported through the media.
In fact, Han Se-yeon had no intention of hiding her greed forever.
However, I was planning to reveal it after Han Se-jin created his own weapon that he could not easily deal with.
The starting point she expected was next year or the year after.
But the story came out much sooner than she expected.
Thanks to this, her older brother Han Se-jin is 3
No contact for days.
“… … Yeah, it worked out better.”
I can’t live like this hiding my greed forever.
Up until now, he has shown outstanding abilities and has been recognized by key figures in the Han Sung Group, and he has also created several people of his own.
Even the problem of supplying magic stones, which had been a scourge for all companies around the world, was resolved, and a foundation was laid for expanding into businesses other than pharmaceuticals.
This is the beginning.
My fight to take over Hansungga begins now…
“Whoa.”
Han Se-yeon put down the smart phone she was holding and leaned back on her chair.
“JWK… …
Suddenly, another question arose.
“… … “Why did you sign with us?”
No matter how much you think about it, it’s strange.
According to CEO Yang Tae-min, it is an investment with the future in mind, but if that is the case, it would be more appropriate to sign a contract with Han Se-jin.
“Is it really you, Jinwoo… …
If so, this situation also makes some sense.
Some questions were also resolved.
Of course, business isn’t something that simply revolves around feelings, but if there’s even a small possibility, it can’t be passed up.
Han Se-yeon picked up the smartphone she had put down again.
As I went into my inbox, a long list of messages with Jinwoo Kim, who I had contacted earlier this morning, came to mind.
Han Se-yeon wrote the message one by one.
[Mr. Jinwoo, do you know of any company that follows?]
… … and then the message was deleted again.
This is because I felt skeptical about myself for forcing the two together simply because the spellings were similar.
“… … I guess I should just think that they saw a special future in me.”
I thought of my brother as my competitor
I guess my self-esteem has dropped too much.
Okay, let’s think positively.
Han Se-yeon finished the written message and tried to return to work.
That was when.
I remembered the news article alarm I had set in advance on my smartphone.
[‘Battle of the Stars’, 2033 Seongmu Festival Schedule Announced. Location: ‘International Science and Magic Research Institute, Wizen’]
The Holy Office schedule has been announced.
Since students from the Magic Academy sponsored by Hansung Pharmaceutical were participating, there was no choice but to be interested.
[Biggest prospects Lee Seo-jun and Kim Seon-woo participate… … ‘Korea’ is considered a strong candidate for the championship.]
Under the article, there was a photo of a male student standing next to Lee Seo-jun with an expressionless face.
Han Se-yeon blankly stared at the photo of the male student, ‘Kim Seon-woo.’
“Huh? Senior, I heard they announced the schedule and location for the Sungmu Festival.”
Lunch time after morning classes.
Choi Seo-yoon, who was sitting across from me in the cafeteria, handed me a smart student notebook while I was eating.
r2033 Announcement of Holy Office location and schedule”
□ The location and schedule for the Holy Festival, a festival of friendship and exchange between the world’s top five magic schools, have been announced.
Location: International Science and Magic Research Institute, Wei Zhen
Schedule: March 25, 2033 – March 31, 2033
-World Association of Wizards-
The location and schedule of this year’s Seongmu Festival were written on the screen.
I thought it was time for the official document to be posted, but it came at exactly the expected time.
“It’s next Monday.”
“Yes, but if it’s Wizen, it’s that island in the Mediterranean, right?”
“that’s right.”
International Institute for Science and Magic, Weizen.
As the name suggests, it is the world’s largest research institute that studies science and magic.
The location is the Mediterranean Sea, surrounded by three continents: Africa, Asia, and Europe.
That small island.
This island is not a naturally created island, but a special artificial island created using science and magic technology.
One more unique thing is that the entire island is both a research institute and a city.

“Wow. I also wanted to visit Wizen. “She used to know an older sister who worked at Weizen for a short time, and she told me a lot of fascinating stories.”
Seoyoon Choi spoke in an excited yet happy voice.
“… … A lot of interesting research has been done
“I don’t know.”
There is a lot of truly unimaginable and bizarre research being done.
For example, artificially creating mystery, or research into synthesizing mystery with magical power.
When I say it like this, it sounds like they are an evil group of mad scientists, but fortunately, Wizen is an international organization and does not conduct research that could be ethically problematic.
“Oh, I’m looking forward to it. Oh, right. Senior and I looked at the schedule, and on the first day… …
Seo-yoon Choi’s face became happy again and she started to chatter away.
I wondered what was so funny, and was listening to the story with a curious smile when a group of people came toward us.
“Can I fit in here?”
It was a trio led by Seojun Lee.
“Oh, do whatever you want.”
At my words, Seojun Lee and his group sat down next to us.
Choi Seo-yoon bowed her head at the sudden gathering.
“hello.”
“Yeah, hi. Oh, I think we’ve bothered you. Should we just go sit somewhere else?”
Lee Seo-jun said with a playful smile.
Shin Young-jun also let out his characteristic mischievous laugh and said, “Hey, hey. You’re bothering me. Let’s go somewhere else.”
And when she really tried to get up, Seo-yoon Choi opened her eyes wide and raised both hands.
“no! You can sit here! Never mind!”
“Really? It seems like a nuisance~”
Shin Youngjun laughed mischievously once again.
I watched the situation in silence, eating the meat with chopsticks.
Somehow, everyone seems to be in a good mood today.
Is it because of the announcement of the Holy Office schedule?
“Oh, right. Did you guys see that? [Promising stocks by country announced by Star 5]
Youngjun Shin took out his smart student notebook, quickly touched it, and showed us the screen.
rStar 50 promising prospects to watch out for by country”
Korea: Seojun Lee (3rd grade), Seonwoo Kim (3rd grade)
USA: Luke Fallon (3rd grade)
UK: Lily Rose (Year 3)
China: Yang Ying (3rd grade)
Russia: Daria Taran (2nd year)
“There were two in Korea alone.”
“Huh? Really?”
“Wow.”
Everyone looked at the screen and showed a surprised expression.
I too was amazed.
I felt strange being side by side with Lee Seo-jun.
“Oh, by the way, which one of you is the most guarded?”
Shin Young-jun asked a question out of the blue. Lee Seo-jun seemed to be lost in thought for a moment.
Then he looked at me and said.
“… … Uh, um. Kim Seon-woo?”
“Kim Seon-woo is on the same team. “You idiot.”
“Why? There’s also a solo exhibition.”
“No, not in the individual event, but in the team event.”
“Hmm. “Then there is nothing in particular.”
Shin Young-jun shook his head in response to Lee Seo-jun’s answer.
“Look at that arrogant thing.”
“Then I’ll do Luke Fallon.”
“Really? I thought you’d say Lily Rose.”
“Lily Rose is a detective like me, so it’s easy to deal with her. Should I say I can read her mind?”
Shin Young-Jun Ah. He nodded slightly as if he understood.
Since he is a magician from the same reinforcement class, it seems that he easily sympathized with Lee Seo-jun’s words.
This time, Shin Young-jun turned his attention to Choi Seo-yoon.
“you?”
Choi Seo-yoon thought for a moment and then answered.
“I’m Daria, a second-year student like you.”
“Daria? I don’t know her well, she’s a second year student.”
“I heard that he is the first genius to appear in Russia in a long time. From what I’ve seen of his training videos, he is definitely not an easy player.”
“Well, the fact that 2nd graders beat 3rd graders to be included in that list means that they have something special about them.”
Shin Youngjun nodded and this time turned his gaze to me.
“Kim Seon-woo and you?”
At the same time, everyone looked at me with eyes full of anticipation.
“Ah, I understand Kim Seon-woo. It’s Lily Rose, right? He’s still sniping at you a lot. Tsk tsk.”
Shin Young-jun said with a playful smile.
Certainly, as the schedule for Holy Affairs got closer, the frequency of Lily Rose sniping at me became more frequent.
Well, sometimes my actions earn me points so I just stay still.
“It’s not him.”
“Really? Then it’s Luke?”
I shook my head again this time.
“Not him either.”
Shin Young-jun seemed slightly surprised by my answer.
“No to both? “Then who is it?”
“Daria Taran.”
Everyone looked surprised, as if it wasn’t the answer they expected.
“… … ok? Daria? “Russian second year?”
I nodded.
“Oh, he’s the most alert.”
Moscow, the capital of Russia.
In a dark, deserted alley, a woman was walking with a stern face.
The woman’s appearance was beautiful.
Smooth brown hair and always thin neckline.
And the distinct facial features were so harmonious that there was no need to explain them in words.
But her expression made the surrounding air
It was freezing cold.
Her tightly shut lips trembled occasionally, as if she was suppressing her anger.
—Daria Taran.
At that time, a voice was heard from the darkness of the alley.
The woman stopped walking and looked toward where the voice had come from.
Soon, a woman with purple hair emerged from the darkness with confident steps.
“I knew you’d come. You’re so special.”
A Russian woman walked out of the darkness and said with a smile.
In contrast to the woman across from him, his expression and voice were full of leisure.
Then, the brown-haired woman, Daria, glared at the opponent in front of her once again with deep anger.
“What do you want from me?”
“Relax your expression. “If anyone sees me, they’ll think I’m trying to eat you.”
“Shut up and answer.”
The woman smiled briefly at those words and then shook her head.
nodded.
“It’s not that difficult. “You just have to follow your original purpose.”
The woman took something out of her bosom and threw it at Daria.
Daria swung her hand and caught it.
I caught it.
A mysterious blue stone with numerous magic techniques drawn on it.
And it was a suspicious potion in a glass bottle.
“There isn’t much we want from you. Holy Office Festival to be held next week. you
“Just do your best there and achieve your goals.”
The woman continued with a leisurely smile.
“And on the last day. When you reach the finish line where the individual match is decided… …you just inject magic power into that stone and you’re done. It’s really nothing special, right?”
Daria looked at the stone in her hand. She could tell that this stone was a mystery.
I didn’t know what would happen if I injected magic, but it was clear that something bad would happen.
“What is this potion?”
“It’s a simple amplifier. If you feel like you’re having a hard time reaching the goal, drink that potion. I think it would be difficult to defeat Lee Seo-jun or Luke with your strength. ah! “Including Kim Seon-woo.”
“Oh, and you have to drink it slowly. If you drink it all at once, you might never be able to use it again.”
The woman looked at Daria and laughed again.
“Relax your expression~ Do only what is asked of you.
“If you do, I will keep my promise.”
“Protect unconditionally.”
“Okay, okay. Okay, this is a gift.”
The woman took something out of her arms and threw it at Daria with magical energy.
Daria caught it again.
It was a photo.
It was a photo of a smiling boy.
“Your brother is doing well. He sometimes cries and says he misses his older sister.”
Daria looked at the photo and said
I clenched my teeth.
“… …What are your identities?”
“It’s stagnant… …
The woman laughed softly.
“If you do your job well, you will come to know it naturally.”
“… … Oh finally.”
A personal training ground within the Magic Academy.
A message that comes to mind during training
I was looking at it and exclaiming in admiration.
[Electricity attribute control technique level has increased!]
[Electric Attribute Control Technique] [Rank: 1 (0%)]
［Permanent effect］
►Attribute Mastery
Mastery increases when using electric attribute magic.
As the level increases, the magical power of electric properties increases.
Electrical property control technique.
Was it over 6 months? After a long time, I have completely made electrical properties my own.
Although it took twice as long as it did with the light attribute, I think it couldn’t be helped since I didn’t often face enemies with the same attribute.
Still, I’m quite satisfied.
Anyway, I achieved my goal.
“Then let’s try it to see if it works properly.”
I tried implementing magic except for the [Formless Spirit Legacy] on my fingers.
Dismissal… … .
It’s so hard… … .
A small sphere materialized in the palm of one’s hand, sparks flew, and a sphere with electric properties materialized.
I couldn’t help but smile at the satisfaction of having completely made electrical properties my own.
was built.
I just reached out and released it into the training dummy.
Phage, phage, phage!
The magic sphere filled with brain energy flashed like lightning and shot forward.
And soon, Kwaang! The sound of an explosion rang out.
[I have gained enlightenment.]
[Proficiency in magic control techniques increases by 2%!]
He grinned and picked up his luggage from the floor.
“Then shall we go now?”
I picked up my luggage and came out of the training ground.
As I came outside, the cool spring breeze passed through my head.
I again held the [Formless Spirit Legacy] on my finger and injected it with magical power.
The ring emitted light as if absorbing the cool breeze.
Within seconds the ring turned transparent.
I took a closer look at the ring.
A small gust of wind, like a whirlwind, was spinning inside the transparent ring.
Let’s lightly create a magic sphere again, this time a small gust of wind rotated around the magic sphere.
It was proof that it contained proper ‘wind properties’.
Since the magic could not be released inside the school, it was destroyed as is.
I took a step back. The place I headed was not the main building where classes started, but the main gate of the school.
As I arrived at the main gate, I saw 15 students huddled together.
Lee Seo-jun, Shin Young-jun, Choi Seo-yoon, Yoo Ah-ra, etc. There were quite a few familiar faces.
“Kim Seon-woo! Why are you so late?!”
“Oh sorry. “I’m doing some morning training.”
Today is the first day of the Seongmu Festival.
