I’m the only magic tower owner episode 021
“Thank you for your hard work, tower owner.”
After the battle, Jeong Seo-jin approached and said.
“It was a great finish, but you don’t look refreshed.”
… … How did know?
“Actually, I have some concerns.”
“Tap Lord, are you worried?”
“About the direction of my magic.”
Even though he only said that, Jeong Seo-jin nodded as if he understood what he meant.
“It’s only natural to worry about your own style. Since it’s a difficult question with no right answer, it may take some time. But I don’t think there’s any need to fret.”
Well, I have just learned the 2nd process magic.
As Jeong Seo-jin said, there is no need to act hastily.
“thanks.”
“Excuse me.”
At that time, Jin Jin-ra grabbed my arm.
“Go faster than that! You’ll be late for the boss fight!”
Oh. I forgot.
There was a light incident, but we moved toward the boss zone again.
* * *
At the last point of the vast lava field, a sea of overflowing lava stretched out endlessly. And there was a ruined marble temple on the land that jutted out like a peninsula.
This is where the boss is scheduled to appear, as announced by the association.
Many people had already taken their seats. As we entered the temple, some people pretended to know us.
“People from the academy also came.”
“I’m using the equipment well!”
“I’m really sorry, but is there any more left?”
Before I knew it, Jinbo and I had become celebrities in this lava cave.
Looking around, I saw that most people in the boss zone were wearing the resistance equipment I had made.
I saw people wearing it outside their clothes like a vest, wearing it under their gear, or wrapping it around their arms or neck like fashion.
I feel a bit proud of this.
“Are you guys here to participate in the boss battle too?”
A handsome man carrying a hammer on his shoulder approached us.
“Oh, yes. By the way.”
“If you’re a student at the academy, your skills are guaranteed. If it’s okay, you can join our party…”
“Don’t be fooled. It’s a shitpot with only three tanks. How about our well-balanced party?”
“If it’s okay with you three, I’d like to invite you to our guild party.”
Suddenly there was competition to recruit us.
Boss monsters appear in field dungeons at specific times. To catch this, players form parties or even organize raids.
But in reality, the boss monster in the field dungeon is not strong enough to withstand the attacks of this many people.
When the firepower of several parties is concentrated, the boss is captured in less than 5 minutes, so it often becomes a simple firefight.
Of course, I am confident in my firepower, and if there are a lot of party members, distributing rewards will become a hassle, so I did not plan on increasing the party size.
“We’re just going to do it casually, just the three of us.”
“Oh yeah?”
“It’s a shame.”
Fortunately, those who approached returned without being particularly muddy.
We took a seat near the temple and waited.
“Ugh, there are too many people. It must be difficult to get the reward, right?”
Jin Jin-ra looked around and continued speaking.
“But let’s not worry too much about the reward! I earned 30 million won by coming here!”
“You’re the only one who cares.”
“Why do you keep arguing!”
As I was watching the two people arguing, I heard a conversation from the party next to me.
“How long until the boss appears?”
“Haaam, I don’t know. He’ll show up on his own when the time comes.”
“But how does the association even know the signs of boss mobs appearing?”
“……Well, as far as I know, I heard that there is a special ability.”
right. Just like my detection ability to spy on other players’ status windows, some people have the ability to read information in a dungeon.
When a dungeon is opened, they are dispatched from the association, and the information they read is posted on various websites.
Oh, of course.
‘Ah, how much time is left now?’
-There are 5 minutes left until the boss appears.
This side is also not lagging behind in information.
The Great Library of the Magic Tower contains information on all types of dungeons.
If you knew the name of the dungeon, you could find out not only the characteristics of the monsters that appeared, but also the signs and location of the boss monsters.
-But Topowner. if… … .
‘what’s the matter?’
-… it’s nothing.
As I was waiting and chatting with my companions, an association employee dressed in uniform appeared in the boss zone.
This meant that the boss battle was about to begin, so the players stood up one by one with nervous expressions.

The employee looked at the clock with a dull expression and said.
“The boss battle will begin in three minutes.”
As expected, EA’s information was accurate.
Boss battles in field dungeons, where numerous parties fight at once, last for a very short period of time, so it was important to land a decisive, effective hit.
I also checked the mana in my body and prepared to unfold the magic circle in advance.
Now the employee announced that there was one minute left.
– Top owner.
EA’s voice was heard again. This guy seemed a bit strange earlier.
-It may sound embarrassing, but… … First, we recommend that you get out of the boss zone with your colleagues.
‘huh? Come all the way here and come out? And that too before the boss battle?’
-The signs of appearance of the currently visible boss monster are different from those of the normal lava tunnel boss monster.
What does this mean again?
“Senior! Come quickly! I need to hit you at least one more time!”
Before we knew it, the two were going deep into the depths.
… … These are real. Don’t be too concerned about rewards!
“Then let’s start the lava cave boss battle now.”
“Oooooh!”
I called out loudly to the two people, but it was easily drowned out by the cheers that erupted from all directions.
‘shit! Hey, answer me! If it’s not a sign of the boss monster in the lava cave, what’s the point?’
-There is a possibility that an Irregular, not the original boss monster, will appear.
‘Irregular?’
After a burst of cheering, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
The time came, but nothing came out.
At that time, a panicked association employee was looking intently at his watch.
Up!
At the edge of the temple, a hand rose from the sea of lava.
It was a monster that was slowly coming up to the ground with its hands on the floor.
Skin as red as lava, a massive body reminiscent of a wrestler, a protruding belly, and the distorted head and sharp teeth of a canine beast.
And the weapon in his hand was a twin blade with blades on both sides.
‘What is that monster?’
-It is not found in search results, on the Hunter Association website, or in my data. Let’s check out the books in the main library.
While I was shouting loudly again and calling together Jeong Seo-jin.
“The boss has come out, what is everyone doing?”
A man nearby ran towards the boss in excitement.
The boss monster rolled its eyes at him and blew out something that looked like a whitish breath from its mouth.
“Hraaaaaaa!”
The swordsman swung a sword coated with mana.
Wow!
The two weapons clashed with a metallic sound. Next, the prosecutor had to experience his arms being lifted upward like a deflated doll.
An overwhelming difference in power.
In that gap, the boss dug into the side.
“……Uh, huh?”
Sigh!
Diagonal marks appeared on the man’s body, and a fountain of blood spurted out. The tiles of the temple turned red.
The man looked down at the wound with an expression of disbelief.
lyricism!
Then his head rose high in the sky.
“……Huh, heh!”
“Aaaah!”
Terrible screams came from all directions.
Only now will everyone here begin to realize it.
Something was strange.
The boss monster, who dropped the human’s head like a toy, slowly knelt down and placed his hands on the floor.
Coo coo coo coo coo!
The ground cracked with a crackling sound. Soon, the entire boss zone, which was a protruding terrain, broke off from the ground and began to float into the sea of lava.
Players who sensed early that something was unusual and tried to run away also had to stop.
“Ji, have you blocked the escape route now?”
Shush!
The boss broke into the group of humans. In front of everyone, someone’s arm flew high into the sky.
“Aaaahhh!”
Starting with those screams, people’s body parts started flying one by one. Arms, legs, and even the head.
The pieces of flesh splitting and spewing blood were a very unrealistic sight.
“Mi, mi, crazy!”
“what is this!”
People were in a state of panic.
Licensed players who challenge themselves to become professional hunters by going through low-rank dungeons are not accustomed to death.
Just like playing a game, all you have to do is enter the hunting ground and defeat the monsters that have already been analyzed according to the strategy.
Everyone wants to become a professional hunter, but how many of them are actually ready to become a professional?
Even if you don’t become a hunter, you can make enough money to live off of just by consistently visiting low-rank hunting grounds. So there are many people who just sit there.
What these people have in common.
If there are any variables that deviate from the manual during battle, it falls apart incredibly easily.
It only took a moment for the entire boss zone to become an abyss of confusion.
Sigh!
Kwasik!
The flesh is torn and blood splatters. I was witnessing a scene of massacre.
Even the players, who were said to be humanity’s miracles for dealing with monsters, were reduced to mere scarecrows when their fighting spirit was lost.
“Oh, what are you all doing? I see people dying in the dungeon once or twice.”
“If you don’t want to catch me, get out of the way!”
Warlike players from the guild came forward. The ones that did belong were people who were promising candidates and were truly trying to become professional hunters.
It was definitely different. They were unfazed by the situation where people were dying before their eyes, and moved according to a thoroughly planned scrum. But let’s evaluate it calmly.
“Tea, team leader!”
“Get back! Just get back!”
Even these were no match for the Irregular Boss Monster.
This monster was intelligent. Instead of dealing with the tank in front and holding a shield, he suddenly rushed to the side and assassinated the defenseless sniper.
And, taking advantage of the players who were perplexed by their colleague’s death, they started cooking one by one.
You might get used to people dying, but seeing the head of a colleague you had been laughing and chatting with getting blown off was a different matter.
Even the players in the guild were shaken.
“But seven people are already dead!”
“No, what happened? I heard the boss monster in the field dungeon is weak!”
Everyone just ran away in a hurry to avoid the boss. There was no such thing as a ragtag group.
I wanted to fire an attack spell, but I couldn’t because of the people running around. Not only me, but the players around me with bows were also confused. It’s dangerous like this.
“oh!”
“excuse me……”
At that time, people were chatting and pointing in one direction.
Jeeeeee!
There were two men crossing between the ground and the temple, connecting a mana thread and placing a weapon on it.
If there are people who can do something like that… … .
“Huh, it’s a hunter!”
“The professional hunter is here! He’s alive now!”
Sighs of relief and wild cheers erupted from all directions. The hunters came down to the ground, welcomed by the players.
“This is Kang Hyeon, a certified Level 5 Hunter. Now, everyone, calm down.”
“This is Choi Jin-cheon, also 5th grade. It’s nothing special. Sometimes boss monsters can be a bit difficult.”
The calm appearance of the hunters instilled a sense of relief in other players. But I was still anxious.
The opponent is Irregular. Aren’t you too calm and not tense?
“Hunter is here. Whoa, whoa. Please turn on the zombies in front of there.”
“Be careful. Even if we catch you, we will distribute the compensation appropriately…”
Craddangtangtangtang!
The people in the front fell like bowling pins, and the boss monster’s body suddenly rushed in.
The hunter in front was startled and quickly pulled out the sword from his waist.
bang!
The hunter collided with the boss monster with his sword half drawn.
His balance suddenly lost and his back was bent halfway, and he said, ‘Wow!’ It made a dizzying sound.
The bald hunter behind him sneered as if it were pitiful.
“Hey, hey. People are surprised. Don’t play around with a rank 2 boss mob.”
“Seo, Senpai! This is really…!”
Cough!
The boss monster retrieved the twin blades and threw them at the bald hunter behind him in the blink of an eye.
“Kwow!”
The embarrassed bald hunter urgently raised his arms above his chest. The tip of his sword stopped slightly piercing his chest.
“No, be surprised! A rank 2 dungeon boss mob is so powerful…!”
Kwasik!
And his body collapsed on the ground.
Everyone’s surprised gaze turned to the back. I saw a huge lava arm appearing out of the sea out of nowhere.
“La, it’s a lava golem!”
Coo coo coo coo!
Coo coo coo coo coo!
The lava sea was shaking violently, and lava golems the size of houses were sticking out from within. They surrounded the boss zone, which quickly became an island.
“……Crazy! I even got hit by a hunter!”
“What the hell is going on?”
An irregular boss monster in the center, and even large monsters in the sea. It’s like being completely surrounded.
Moreover, the bald hunter who was running away while vomiting blood due to an injury was unable to avoid the sword of the Irregular who was chasing him and fell down the cliff with blood spraying from his chest.
It all happened so quickly.
From then on, it was a series of massacres.
When even the hunter who came to rescue them was attacked, the players lost their will to resist and just ran away.
“Kuhheuk! Sa, help me!”
At that time, the boss was about to strike the twin blades at the middle-aged man who had fallen on the floor.
Up!
Jeong Seo-jin appeared like the wind and blocked the swinging twin blades with both hands.
“……Hawk, bare hand?”
Jeong Seo-jin was not pushed back in terms of strength. Realizing that the opponent was formidable, the boss monster retrieved the weapon and tried to swing it again.
Wow!
The potion flew out of nowhere and hit the boss’s face and exploded. The guy staggered back.
“Yes, hit!”
Jin Jin-ra appeared holding a potion in both hands.
“I hate to cooperate with you, but I can’t help it since it’s my senior’s order.”
“That’s what we’re going to do.”
While the two were buying time, I hurriedly ran to the one remaining level 5 hunter. If this guy gets hit too, there really is no chance of winning.
“Hey!”
He grabbed Hunter’s shoulder and shook it, but his eyes were half unfocused.
driving me crazy. How did such a weak guy pass the hunter qualification test?
“Hey! Are you out of your mind?”
Now that it’s like this, there’s no need to go back and forth. I grabbed him by the collar and pushed him hard against the stone wall behind him. A pretty loud thud! There was a sound.
Wow! match!
After several slaps to the cheek in succession, the dazed guy’s eyes finally came back into focus.
“Who, who…?”
fantasy,
