rattle.
A small, upscale bar somewhere in Seoul.
The door to the room opened and a woman came inside.
I got up from my seat and greeted the person I was meeting with today.
“Han Se-yeon.”
“sorry. “I’m a little late because I’m busy with work.”
“it’s okay. “Please sit down.”
Han Se-yeon sat down across from me and lightly wiped the sweat from her forehead.
“Ugh. The air conditioner is nice and cool. “It’s too hot outside.”
“They say it’s the hottest heat wave in 10 years.”
“Yes. “I heard that even wizards these days take a break from work because it’s hot.”
“Should the wizard just rest? “I heard that the monsters in the monster field are all hiding in the heat wave and can’t be seen.”
“Oh, right. “I heard that.”
Han Se-yeon giggled.
Then he looked at me with strange eyes.
“I heard you solved a case today too?”
When we talk about today’s incident, it seems we are talking about Mine.
I always feel this, but word spreads really fast on this floor.
“Yes, that’s right. what.”
Han Se-yeon nodded at my casual reaction.
“You’re going through a lot. “Aren’t you overdoing it?”
“it’s okay.”
I filled my glass. And he filled Han Se-yeon’s glass with alcohol.
Han Se-yeon looked down at her drink and took something out of her arms and held it out to me.
“Now, take it.”
It was a card envelope luxuriously packaged with a golden pattern.
“This is an invitation to the pioneer night you requested.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Social Event Pioneer Night.
This is the place where the biggest incident that will occur this summer vacation will occur.
On this day, Pioneer’s Night hosted by Han Se-jin and the underground auction hosted by Haryeong will be held on the same day.
Originally, it was an event that was supposed to be held individually, but Han Se-jin, who usually interacts with people, became interested in Haryeong’s underground auction and collaborated with Haryeong.
Of course, since the underground auction is an illegal event, it will be held very secretly, unlike Pioneer Night.
“And as I said last time, you have to come with me to the underground event.”
“Yeah, I know. “Please do this again.”
Han Se-yeon nodded and looked at my face.
“But what is your plan?”
“What?”
“No, if they try to do something,
An incident occurred. “I was wondering what they were going to do this time.”
“Is there any other reason to go to an underground auction?”
“Tch
Han Se-yeon made a pouting expression and drank quietly. Then she said to me.
“thank you.”
I looked at Han Se-yeon at the sudden thank you.
“What?”
“They told me to shut down the dungeon business. “If it weren’t for that, my status as a member of the Hansung family would have been further diminished.”
” ah.”
I was just saying this out loud, but it must have been an extremely important event from Se-yeon Han’s perspective.
Unlike Han Se-jin, each of these achievements would have been important to her as she had a small position in the group.
“What happened to Vice Chairman Han Se-jin?”
“Anyway. I got scolded by my father
Joe. How could someone who was lying down due to illness scream so loudly? really.”
I chuckled. Chairman Han Dae-hyun, an acquaintance of Han Se-yeon’s father.
As befits the head of the Hanseong family, a man without blood or tears, he had a very cold and cruel personality.
Of course, he is currently bedridden due to illness.
His lifespan is not long now. The moment Chairman Han Dae-hyun dies, the Hansung family’s management succession battle will begin in earnest.
“So right now, you’re putting your life on the line for this social event, Pioneer Night. “It’s a simple event, but the image of Hansungga is at stake, right?”
“Yes. Since a large number of high-ranking people will be gathered, they will be especially careful. Moreover, I heard that this Pioneer Night will be held on the largest scale ever.”
“yes. that’s right. I am determined to make it a success. “If I fail at this or that, I won’t have the courage to see my father again.”
I drank while listening to Han Se-yeon.
I drank it all down. Sweet and bitter taste spread in my mouth. At the same time, I felt better. It’s definitely different because it’s an advanced technique.
“Han Se-yeon, congratulations again.”
“yes?”
Han Se-yeon looked at me with eyes full of doubt.
“This Pioneer Night event. “It’s going to be a very dry floor.”
“……yes?”
Han Se-yeon returned home after breaking up with Kim Jin-woo.

plod along. I felt drowsy, perhaps due to the influence of alcohol.
I’m not the type of person who drinks alcohol in front of others comfortably, but for some reason I got excited and ended up drinking a little too much.
Now that I think about it, I think it was like that at Kim Jin-woo’s housewarming last time. For some reason, it seems like he only shows his unsightly side in front of that man.
“Whoa… …
Han Se-yeon sat on the sofa. Watching a black screen television with unfocused eyes
While watching, I remembered my conversation with Kim Jin-woo.
—This Pioneer Night event. Because it will be a very dry floor.
-… … yes? A mess?
-Yes, not an ordinary mess, but a very big mess. This is a big opportunity for Han Se-yeon. Se-yeon Han would know how to use this information.
Han Se-yeon was lost in thought.
Please use this information.
I fully understand Jinwoo Kim’s intention.
did.
Perhaps this means opposing the holding of the Pioneer Night event in front of important figures of Hansung Group.
If the event proceeds as is and ends in failure as Kim Jin-woo said, his own perspective will be reevaluated.
If so, it will certainly be of great help in raising Hansung Group’s internal position.
But she hesitated.
As always, following Kim Jin-woo’s words can be a big risk.
Because it is gambling.
Finally she made a decision.
Let’s trust Kim Jin-woo’s words again this time.
And you can trust Kim Jin-woo’s words because he has never been wrong so far.
Se-yeon Han grabbed her smartphone and entered a number.
Tiriring.
I heard a phone alarm sound. The alcohol from just now has long since disappeared.
—What’s going on? You made all the calls.
A deep voice comes from beyond the speaker.
I heard it.
Han Se-yeon opened her mouth with a small smile.
“father. “I have something to tell you.”
A lazy weekend.
Perhaps due to running hard during the vacation, my stamina was exhausted and I was resting at home. Today, she plans to take a break from personal training, which she has been doing every day.
This is because now is the time to organize events that will occur in the future.
I checked the internet article.
［Social event, ‘Pioneer Night’ held on August 10th. A large number of celebrities are expected to participate in the largest-ever event.]
［Items belonging to Jin Cheon-woo, the former leader of Zaun. Special exhibition at the social event ‘Pioneer’s Night’］
The incident is slowly approaching.
Social events pioneer nights and underground auctions.
It can be said to be the biggest incident that will occur this summer vacation.
The items belonging to Jin Cheon-woo, the former leader of Zaun, will be displayed on this day and will attract the attention of many important figures.
The date is next Saturday.
There are still 13 days left.
“We should prepare in advance before that.”
However, with my current abilities, I cannot have the slightest influence on the events that will occur in the future.
However, it would be foolish to just watch and do nothing during this incident.
“If you don’t have the ability, you can create the ability.”
I opened a points store.
Normally, I would have checked the characteristics or item window, but not this time.
What I want to check this time is the so-called ‘skill’.
[Rune Binding (S)]
Category ‘Boundary’
Description: Binds the opponent using magical power.
［Permanent effect］
►Bondage
Consumes magical power to trap the opponent.
*Cooldown time: 3 days
Price: 100,000
Rune’s Binding.
It is a secondary type of magic that traps the opponent. It is similar to the auxiliary series of barrier magic, but
There is a separate reason why rune binding is classified as a ‘skill’ rather than magic.
This is because this magic can only be handled by those with certain limitations.
The ‘Demon Battle System’ used by Mine during the first midterm exam had a similar principle to this.
Because Demon’s Confrontation was a technique that only Demons could use.
However, ‘skills’ purchased with benefits from outsiders remove this specific usage restriction.
If I had a skill called Demon Confrontation,
If you purchase it, you will be able to use the ability called Demon Confrontation even if your race is not a demon.
Of course, because ‘skills’ can easily give too much power to the user, there are penalties such as their selling point being that they are extremely expensive, or the mana required when using them is enormous.
Still, according to my memory, rune binding was the highest level binding magic among the auxiliary classes.
Considering the events ahead, this skill will definitely be of great help to me.
“home.”
But there is a problem.
[16,000 points are insufficient.]
There are still not enough points to purchase.
Still, there are still about two weeks left until the event, so you can earn points hard in the meantime.
And fortunately, there was another small event waiting for us this week where we could earn a lot of points.
I checked my smart student notebook.
[This is a notice about special vacation classes.]
[Summer camp, the last special class of the first semester, will be held this Thursday. Please gather in front of the portal gate in front of the Wizard Academy by 10 a.m.]
The last special class of the first semester.
On the outside, it looks like an ordinary training camp, but it involves several characters.
A surprising incident will occur.
Of course, this episode does not have a significant role in the original story.
Because it was simply an episode used to improve the relationships between the characters and for Lee Seo-jun’s mental healing. However, you should not let your guard down, as serious situations may arise for a moment in the middle.
“Scar!”
“Guys! I’m here!”
Jaun’s hideout somewhere in Gyeonggi-do.
When Scar, a huge man, came in, Jaun’s group welcomed him.
“Did you monitor Lee Seojun well?”
Bert asked while brushing his teeth.
“What do I need to monitor? His parents’ home is Kim Jin-cheol’s house. Plus, even if he leaves the house, the only place he goes to is the Wizards Association headquarters.”
“Oh, I see.”
Bert nodded in understanding.
It was thanks.
As Jaun’s natural enemy was the Wizards’ Association, there was a need to be careful about monitoring Lee Seo-jun at this point.
“it’s okay. “Let’s stop spying on Lee Seo-jun for the time being.”
“uh? Is that okay?”
Baek Eun-seong reacted to Bert’s words.
“Anyway, I only go to Chairman Kim Jin-cheol’s house and the wizard’s association, so how could something dangerous happen to Lee Seo-jun?”
Everyone in Jaun’s group nodded at Berthe’s words.
“hmm. That’s right. And if you are unnecessarily near Lee Seo-jun and get caught by them, it will be even more troublesome.”
“right. Seojun Lee, what kind of camp training are you doing this time?”
“Oh, yes. “After investigating, it seemed like they were staying on some kind of island.”
“okay? Sounds fun. “I also want to go back to school.”
Scar muttered to himself in a voice full of envy. Natasha looked at him with her pitiful expression.
“That’s it. Let’s get ready quickly. list a
“Come back.”
Bert, who had just finished brushing his teeth, spoke. Jin brought a large piece of paper from somewhere and stuck it on the wall.
“This is a list of business people known to have received invitations to this Pioneer Night.”
The personal information of numerous people was written on the paper.
Each and every one of them was from a famous company.
“Well, excluding the big names like Han Se-jin and Han Se-yeon, I selected easy-going people.”
Everyone nodded at Jin’s briefing.
It was. Jin pointed to several people on the list.
“This time we need 9 invitations. And from here to here, I think 9 people is the most appropriate number. “They come from famous companies, but their backgrounds are unremarkable.”
Natasha, who had been quietly listening to Jin, said with her arms crossed.
“So you’re saying we’ll kill those nine people and participate in the Pioneer Night as them?”
“that’s right. “As long as the number of invitations is limited, we have to do it this way.”
Natasha smiled cruelly at those words.
“good. Sounds fun. So when are you going to start moving?”
Thursday, the third week of vacation.
Finally, the day of the last special class of the first semester arrived.
I arrived in front of the Wizard Academy at the exact time as usual.
Nearly 60 students gathered together
They were looking forward to it, but they were making different expressions, including anticipation, annoyance, and excitement.
“Kim Seon-woo!”
As I looked around to find a familiar face, I heard a voice calling me from afar.
“You got it right this time too.”
Seojun Lee looked at me and said. After that, there were other members.
“It’s always like that.”
“What did you do during vacation?”
Seojun Lee asked me in a soft voice. Probably ‘Chairman Kim Jin-cheol’s teachings’
It probably means, ‘What great thing did you do after rejecting the offer?’
Since I couldn’t answer honestly, I just made it up.
“I get personal training and make money.”
“money? “What did you do part-time?”
Shin Young-jun, who was watching from behind, intervened and said.
“… … It’s similar to a part-time job. Like a lifeguard or something.”
The most common part-time job for aspiring wizards during vacation is that of a security guard. The hourly pay is high compared to the work done, and the school teaches lifesaving in detail.
Because it’s something to learn.
It was such a standard answer that Shin Young-jun nodded without any doubt.
“He’s a security guard. Not bad for a short-term part-time job. I also worked as a pool lifeguard last year and found it very comfortable. “Hehe.”
I couldn’t sympathize with this because it wasn’t something I had done myself, so I nodded instead of answering.
After about 5 minutes of having such an unusual conversation, Park Jeong-wan, the teacher in charge of the special class, appeared. The students looked at Park Jeong-wan with tense faces.
“It looks like everyone is here. I don’t know if everyone had a good time during the vacation. There are probably some students who are dissatisfied because they have to receive training in the middle of vacation.”
Several students looked stung by Park Jeong-wan’s words.
“great. Let’s get to the point. Everyone is probably curious about today’s special class schedule. “They didn’t tell us at all where the two-day, one-night special class would be held.”
The students also listened with their eyes shining, as if they were curious about that.
Of course, I already knew where this class would be held, so I was fully prepared.
Park Jeong-wan took out a holographic tool from his pocket and showed the students a 3D map. It was modeled like a round island.
“This is the place where this special class training will be conducted. “A huge uninhabited island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, an island of fog.”
