I’m the only magic tower owner episode 052

I came into the magic tower and was talking on the phone with Jeong Seo-jin. Next to me, Eunsol was fast asleep, resting on my lap.

– Tower owner, I have one bad news for you.

Jeong Seo-jin said that an unexpected leech had attached itself to the potion business currently in progress.

Guild Calam.

Although it is not a large enough guild to be included in the top 10 guilds in Korea, it is notorious in the hunter world.

They are famous for using any means necessary to get what they want.

Kidnapping, intimidation, and torture are basic. There are more than dozens of dungeon disappearance cases related to these people.

There were a lot of suspicious things, but there were only suspicions and suspicions, and there was no evidence. Even important witnesses turned blue and could not open their mouths when they said they were related to Kalam.

These dangerous people caught the scent and latched onto it.

“Aren’t Kalam people who commit dungeon-related crimes? Why are they suddenly starting a business?”

-I have doubts about that too.

“……Hmph, then what can you guess about their motivation?”

-It looks like they are looking for someone capable of making potions. Several of the distribution company drivers we worked with have already gone missing.

My mouth dropped open when I heard the word missing.

“You kidnapped people? Why civilian drivers who had nothing to do with it?”

– That’s their way. We start with the smallest clues and work our way up to the core. Already, some transport companies have even canceled their contracts after realizing that we were targeted by Kalam.

“…….”

The tension suddenly rises and I feel like I can’t breathe. I unbuttoned my shirt for no reason.

“……Seojin. Are you okay?”

-Yes, everything was done through an agent, so there are no gaps in security.

I had no idea that the security system created to avoid Unix would be used to block Kalam.

Jeong Seo-jin sighed deeply and continued.

-But Kalam is a persistent bastard, and sooner or later his tail will be stepped on.

In the end, if the connection between me and the tower owner is discovered, everything will be in danger, including Bora and Eunsol, their families, and even the magic tower.

“……Kuhhh.”

I grabbed my throbbing forehead.

-So, I don’t plan on entering the Magic Tower from today.

“what?”

-Now that you are targeted by Kalam, there is a risk that the location of the Magic Tower will be exposed. I will run the office outside and report on the progress of the business.

When I heard those words, it occurred to me that something was wrong.

“Is there no other way?”

-If there is a way… … .

Jeong Seo-jin paused for a moment and then spoke.

-there is. The tower lord is joining the guild.

“Guild……”

-The top lord becomes a member of a top 10 guild and comes to the forefront to run the potion business. If Kalam touches a tower owner who belongs to a guild, it means an all-out war with that guild, so they will have no choice but to give up.

Certainly, if we have power on our backs, Kalam will not be able to touch us carelessly.

Kalam is ruthless towards the weak, but when he encounters an opponent stronger than him, he cleverly curls his tail and bows his head.

Jeong Seo-jin explained that this is why an organization like Kalam has been able to survive until now.

-And once you join the guild, you can proceed with the potion business using the guild’s distribution line and name value. Of course, you will be asked to pay accordingly, but it is the safest method.

“…How about putting the potion business on hold?”

-As long as Kalam is on the back burner, postponing the project does not mean the risk disappears.

Well, I guess so.

The war has already begun. The opponents are not just industrial spies, but monsters who do not hesitate to commit murder for their own purposes.

Since such dirty things were attached, it was necessary to have a force behind them for everyone’s safety.

The surest way for me right now is to join the 4th ranked guild, Snow.

Although it may be the scouts’ illusion, they think I will join the guild if I graduate early.

‘… … I must win this in the quarterfinals.’

However, this issue is intertwined with the association president’s proposal.

No confirmation has been given.

If you ignore the proposal and proceed with the quarterfinals, you may be criticized by the president of the association. He didn’t seem to have a reserved personality, but he is a person who would do no good by turning you into an enemy.

I am also worried about the duel with Hong Yeon.

In the first duel, I only won by taking advantage of my opponent’s carelessness, and it is impossible to eat raw as a Devasta like I did then.

‘It’s a pain in the ass.’

Obviously, everything was going smoothly, but at some point, it became twisted like a tangled skein of thread.

After finishing the phone call with Jeong Seo-jin, I fell into deep thought.

‘When I think about it, I always reacted according to the situation.’

I didn’t prepare for the potion business out of complacency.

Because we knew how great the impact would be, Jeong Seo-jin and I developed a distribution route without being detected.

Security was also thorough.

All contracts were made through agents, and the warehouse where the distributor stored by-products and the place where the potions were manufactured were set somewhere other than the Magic Tower. On the surface, it is just a food and beverage company.

However, there was a variable that exceeded my expectations: Kalam’s approach.

In the end, the surest way to stop Kalam is to have power behind him.

The Snow Guild is waiting for my early graduation.

However, in order to graduate early, you must win the quarterfinals. In the quarterfinals, a tough opponent called Hongyeon awaits.

And there was a suggestion from the president of the association.

“Ugh, the head.”

At that time, Eunsol, who was resting on my knees, started squirming and rubbing her eyes.

“……Oppa.”

“Oh, sorry. Are you awake?”

“Aren’t you sleeping, oppa?”

“In a little while.”

She wiggled again and snuggled into my arms. She appears to be at ease and smiles pleasantly before her eyes slowly close.

“…….”

I am satisfied with this life with everyone.

But perhaps, if you become a hunter belonging to a guild, your current life will become difficult.

At the academy, it was okay to schedule dungeons and be stuck in the magic tower, but joining a guild and becoming a professional hunter was a different story.

Once you join the guild, you will have to undergo hectic training to become a hunter during the training period, and you will be teaming up with new people.

Afterwards, you will enter the dungeon at the guild’s request and be driven crazy.

Perhaps the time spent in the guild or dungeon may be much longer than the time spent in the Magic Tower.

But I can’t help it. The only way to drive out Kalam is for me to join the guild… … .

“……No, wait.”

Suddenly I came to my senses.

Am I focusing too much on the current situation?

Because I keep getting caught up in the situation, everything feels complicated and difficult.

Isn’t this why you became a magic tower lord? If this is the case, I will be no different from when I was at rock bottom.

Let’s focus on myself.

Before using magic, before immersing myself, just like I always do.

Whatever happens to other people, it’s okay.

my thought. What do I want to do?

decided.

I took out the association president’s business card and immediately called the direct number.

-who?

“President of the Association. This is Kim Yu-shin.”

Wootangtangtang!

For a moment, a loud noise was heard beyond the receiver.

-Oh, yes!

I narrowed my eyes and took the smartphone away from my ear. The voice is loud.

Could this person have been secretly waiting for me to contact him?

Maybe it’s just my imagination.

-After you accepted my suggestion, I guess you changed your mind?

“It has changed. I would like to make a new suggestion.”

-Hmm, are you planning to completely re-install the board?

“yes.”

I continued speaking slowly.

“First of all, what I want to say is that withdrawing from the quarterfinals or me running away abroad is just a stopgap measure. It could create the perception that I am avoiding the match, and the goal itself may disappear. Only in this way can I properly help Hongyeon. “You can’t motivate yourself.”

-I know that.

The president of the association agreed.

Nevertheless, the reason they want to send me away is probably because the shock of Hong Yeon’s goal being broken due to my defeat will be more fatal.

In the end, the only way to shake things up is to break her premise itself.

“I’ll just catch Hongyeon in the quarterfinals.”

-… … what?

I said it as if it was obvious.

“If Hongyeon’s goal is to defeat me, if that can give him the motivation to get his mentality and grow, then I understand. I will take full responsibility. I will break him so that he can’t even make eye contact from now on.”

– Didn’t I tell you? You can’t win in a head-to-head fight.

“Actually, the official Academy match is not a ‘head-to-head match’. If you use the rules, you can turn the situation around. Above all, I know Hongyeon’s weaknesses.”

-Weakness? what is that.

“She can’t lame like me.”

The president of the conference was silent for a moment, probably considering my words.

Then I heard the sound of laughter.

After that.

-Kyahahahahaha!

There was a burst of laughter. I frowned again and put the receiver away from my ear.

-Baby, do you have a rough idea of ​​what to do?

Well, from the perspective of the president of the association, it would be perfect if I won. Because she wants to stay on for one more year as president of the Academy.

“Do you believe me?”

-About half. But so far it sounds like a bluff. What if you lose?

“I will pay any price.”

-… … A young bastard. Choose your words in front of me. Can you properly take responsibility for that?

It felt like life was coming over the phone. I was out of breath for a moment, but I tried to calm myself down and answered calmly.

“yes.”

-good. In return, if you succeed, I will do you a favor.

“Anything?”

-Anything I can do.

She is the current president of the Hunter Association. In fact, there is nothing she cannot do in Korea.

“Let’s make a deal.”

-good.

She giggled.

-Are you looking forward to it? Our student council president.

* * *

After the duel in question, Hong Yeon disappeared.

Former Operations Manager Yoon Seul-ah was exhausted from looking for Hong Yeon. She went to the mansion, but Hongyeon wasn’t there either.

Then information came in.

A small island in Shinan-gun, Jeollanam-do.

She came to the island on a sea boat for the first time in her life.

“Hey, are you there?”

The security guard who had been dozing off in a shabby management office opened his eyes.

“Huh? Who are you?”

“I’m an academy student.”

“Academy? Want to use it as a hunting ground? Tsk tsk, you should have inquired. There is someone who has rented out the entire island for a while. I’m sorry, but I have to go somewhere else….”

Yun Seul-ah waved her hand and cut off her words.

“No, no. I didn’t come to hunt, I came to look for people. Isn’t Hongyeon here by any chance?”

“Who is Hong Yeon?”

As the security guard tilted his head, Yun Seul-ah spoke excitedly.

“Don’t you know Hongyeon? The president of the association has a younger sister! She has slightly red hair and looks pretty with a sword!”

“Ah, that’s right! That student is using it right now!”

I finally found it! A smile appeared on Yun Seul-ah’s lips.

“I’ll just go in for a moment and talk.”

“I told you not to let anyone in… Huh? Wait!”

She threw the bag on her back to the floor and deftly climbed up the barbed wire surrounding the hunting ground like a cat.

Let’s climb up to the highest point of the barbed wire.

‘It’s there!’

I found Hongyeon walking in the middle of an island teeming with monsters.

“Hoejaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Hongyeon raised her head. In an instant, Yun Seul-ah came running down her barbed wire fence and clung to her arm.

“Ugh, Chairman! What on earth are you doing here? You’re not answering the phone! You’re not even seeing the chat! I’ve been looking for everyone!”

She looked at Yun Seul-ah with empty eyes.

“I’m not the president or anything anymore.”

When Hongyeon quietly corrected herself, Yun Seul-ah made an expression of regret.

“Well, there’s a saying like this! Once a president, always a president… ahaha! Anyway, let’s go back to Seoul quickly. Everyone is worried.”

Hongyeon shook her head silently.

“Not yet.”

She slowly lifted the sword from the ground.

“We need a little more time. We’ll go back to the quarterfinals.”

“Oh, did you hear that? Your opponent in the round of 16 withdrew, and the quarterfinals…”

“Yes. It was a rematch with senior Kim Yu-shin.”

It was then. The island’s monsters heard the commotion and began to flock.

“Woah, Yuna! Let’s run away first! I’ll save time…!”

When Yun Seul-ah tried to step forward, Hong Yeon raised his arm and stopped her.

“It was the first time I felt such a helpless feeling right after losing to senior Kim Yu-shin.”

“……Yuna.”

“Other than a sense of duty, I was actually tired of power. Even my destiny to become a hunter, I felt like I could see my future clearly. As a player, nothing could make my heart beat.”

Sreung.

The sword she lifted shined brilliantly, reflecting the sunlight.

“But now I know. I thought it was good, but when I experienced it myself, it wasn’t.”

She took a big step forward with one leg and swung her sword.

As if the world was split in two, the approaching monsters were cut in half by the red line, and even the trees on the island were split in half and floated high in the sky.

Yun Seul-ah’s shoulders trembled with fear.

Hongyeon, who was looking at the pieces of monster flesh falling to the floor with emotionless eyes, quietly declared.

“No matter what it takes, I have to defeat senior Kim Yu-shin.”
