The Player Hides His Past

Episode 488. Foundation (4)

Benshee William.

The reason why I entrusted Benshi with the temporary chief role of the enormous and powerful Magic Tower is simple. To be honest, I passed it on. Let me tell you, think about my position!

-‘You’re worse than most spam texts.’

In anything, the first time is important.

Didn’t the Benshi, who didn’t know the taste of a tower, taste the taste of a tower not long ago? Even if it wasn’t, where did the desire that was as strong as a flame go?

That’s right, they all came back to me as application forms.

One, two, three…

Now it wasn’t just one a day, it was at least three or four.

If the reason had been still absurd, I would have scrawled the rejection signature. What was even more problematic was that instead of being as ridiculous as before, it had become strangely plausible.

‘…I wondered if I had figured out Granfell’s temperament.’

No matter how obvious it is to see the other person’s insides.

If work is not done fairly and according to formalities and procedures.

He has a personality that causes thorns to sprout all over his body.

Thanks to Granfell’s stubbornness, I couldn’t just overlook Benshi’s application to go to the tower and the continental expedition application.

It is said that there was no choice but to evaluate it based on the reason for the request, which was glossed over like spit on the lips.

-“Have you finally realized it, Benshee William? “Your pride.”

At that point, I also changed my mind.

okay. Rather than tantalizingly stimulating the desire of the banshees through the tower. Wouldn’t it be better if both I and Marcelo Mathis were absent from the Magic Tower?

-‘Feel my hardships.’

Let’s hand over senior duties to learn a lesson.

For such a frivolous reason as Lee Ho-yeol, he only entrusted Benshi with the temporary acting chief role. I never thought that such an unprecedented incident would occur when I entrusted full authority of the Magic Tower to the Benshee.

My lips move as if making an excuse.

“Banshee William, you will be able to respond well.”

Do you really think so, Granfell?

Even if you fool everyone else, you can’t fool my own eyes. You?

If only I had a mirror, I would have been able to grasp the true meaning of what was said…

“Your instincts are truly sharp.”

…Are you serious?

Above all, it was a cubic matter that could not be said without empty words. The fact that Bensh was given a generous evaluation. Regardless of Lee Ho-yeol’s prejudices, Granfell had a high opinion of Banshee.

‘…If that’s you, I’m glad you did.’

Kukuku Palace.

I looked at my crumbling fingers and assessed them. Perhaps the fusion intelligence Yugweed is causing damage in reality that has never been seen in history since the cataclysm.

‘Of course, reality is more dangerous than the Arcana Continent.’

In that sense.

“The search war is over. “Show sincerity.”

It would be best to proceed with the phase quickly.

sparkle.

Soon, a new quest goal blinked.

-Fusion Intelligence: Defeat Yugweed Lufeng. (In progress)

Neutralize the fingers of the fusion intelligence. (Success)

Neutralize the right arm of the fusion intelligence. (In progress)

Is it the right arm after the fingers?

As soon as the message blinked, a huge shadow appeared. With the sound of falling stones, Yugweed’s huge arms were rising straight toward the sky.

Crumble.

If you guess the amount of destruction from its size…

it may have a destructive power that surpasses that of the highest level magic, Meteor Strike. This is not a problem that can be solved by simply avoiding it.

Ariel, the Spirit King of Wind, frowned.

“If this continues, the axis of the Arcana Continent will shake…!”

Then there is only one solution.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

I drastically increased my magic power.

Now that [Nemesis] has not been activated, my magic stat is approximately 1,000. Normally, if you ask what you can do with about 1,000 horsepower.

Hallucination magic that appeared in the Magic Tower.

I evaluated the tower’s hallucination magic, which blocked uninvited guests at regular conferences, as being at the level of a thousand magical powers. The reason I was able to guess it intuitively was, of course, thanks to Granfell’s talent.

That’s what Granfell was saying.

“Hiel and everyone please keep this in mind.”

Maybe now I will fall into magical exhaustion just by blocking that blow, or I may close my eyes on the Arcana Continent due to further aftereffects.

Goooooh.

Nevertheless, he did not stop and raised his magic power. Even though it is said to be of a different level of magical power, with strangeness added to it, it is still the same as that being that has entered the realm of strangeness.

‘Well, he might be way ahead of me.’

It was a being that might have been a fusion of Yugweed, the elder wizard of the Magic Tower, and Oried, the Spirit King. So, we have to do our best here too.

[The stat ‘Persistence’ is converted to ‘Magic Power’.]

That’s my tenacity.

determination.

Converts it to magical power and turns it into even more massive magical power.

No matter how excellent the magic efficiency of building magic is.

To endure something like that.

A truly massive amount of magical energy will be required.

Sssss.

Long silver hair flutters out of sight.

This is due to the rapid increase in magical power.

Magical power is flowing out to the extent that it affects the body.

[※Caution: Magical power flows back.]

[The status abnormality ‘Magic Intoxication’ occurs.]

[The status abnormality ‘Magicification’ occurs.]….

Magical Intoxication.

Be magical.

This is a phenomenon I’ve only seen in Magic Tower books. Is this it?

‘I never thought I would experience it firsthand.’

The messages that followed showed that the [Blessing of the First World Tree] had rejected the status abnormality. However, there is no need to go to the trouble of refusing. Like I said, this was also part of my plan.

“…!!!”

I think everyone would have figured it out by then.

Something is wrong with me.

It will have to be that way.

Transformation of status abnormality into magical power.

I recall the knowledge from the books I had packed into my head.

──────

What beginners in pure magical science must be wary of is ‘magical transformation.’ High magic sensitivity is like a double-edged sword. On the contrary, there is a possibility that your body and mind will be swallowed up by magic power…

──────

What is magic power?

To put it simply, it was a condition similar to ‘blackening’ in black magic.

If there’s anything different.

It was said that magicalization was much more dangerous than blackening.

──────

So be careful. A magician who becomes magical will definitely die.

──────

I snorted while reading that phrase.

-‘I’m more afraid of blackening than magicalization.’

Of course, that thought has not changed even now.

Thanks to the effect of [The Last Adventurer]. For me, who can be resurrected even if I die on the Arcana Continent, it is natural that I am more afraid of the [blackening] that might reveal the dark history through my mouth than my current life…!

therefore.

[Status abnormality ‘magicalization’ occurs.]

[Status abnormality ‘magicalization’ occurs.]

[Status abnormality ‘magicalization’ occurs.]….

I was able to remain upright even when I was on the verge of death. .

“Blessed One, your body…?”

I also knew because I saw and felt it.

Magicalization literally.

My body was turning into a mass of pure magical energy.

I continued speaking in response to the question full of concern.

“You can do it.”

They say I can’t enter the Arcana continent for 24 hours due to the death penalty. The full power of those on the battlefield at this moment should be enough to stop it.

‘It’s not a huge sacrifice.’

It’s just a role to support them.

To use a metaphor, I was a medium.

As I said, it is the magic power itself that will amplify the {natural} abilities of the Spirit Kings.

If it’s an amplified natural ability, definitely.

“All of this is the providence of nature.”

…Yes, according to that grandiose act of nature.

No matter how many phases are left, you will be able to overcome it. The earth spirits that had become an obstacle were no longer loyal to Orried due to the effect of [Hierarchy of Obedience].

however.

“…What do you mean by providence?”

It seems like everyone has a different take on ‘the providence of nature’? Of course, it is also natural for people to die. It’s true that I’m going to die here and now, but…

“No way…!!”

There’s no need to make such a fuss?

Anyway, a day later.

He will return alive and well in four days, Arcana Continent time.

Okay.

Are you vaguely aware of that fact?

Only Hiel bowed his head to my words.

While checking these people, I unleashed my final magic.

An aesthetic element that is not forgotten in these situations.

Unleashing architectural magic with added aesthetics.

Finally, a statue rises up.

Kukugugugung.

In the collision, my magically transformed body began to scatter into the air. It began to seep into the spirits through nature, flames, wind, ice, forests, and lightning.

A system message that does not lie flashes.

[Your magical power is flooding the area.]

Next, a message flashes.

[You have died.]

[Death penalty applies.]

[Acquired experience decreases.]

[Your achievements resound throughout the Arcana Continent.]

[Life on the Arcana Continent speaks of your sacrifice.]

[ The title ‘Nobility’ changes.]

[The title ‘Nobility’ has been acquired.]

[The title ‘Last Adventurer’ effect is activated.]

[Returns to reality immediately.]

[Cooldown: 23 hours 59 minutes]

Blurring In consciousness.

I had only one thought.

As I said, I wasn’t worried about the Arcana Continent at all.

I just desperately wanted it.

please.

You are doing well in real life, right?

Isn’t that right, William Benshee…?

*

Another Space issue.

“You’re crazy.”

The mere appearance of a monster with the same name as the former senior wizard of the Magic Tower is shocking. It was so large that it could be detected even in distant space.

“What about the Magic Tower? “Are we still in limbo?”

“yes! “It’s buried in the rocks and you can’t see anything.”

“Damn it. “I guess there’s nothing I can do, so I slowly change the angle.”

“yes!”

Ta-ta-ta-da-dak.

When I touched the instrument panel, the angle of Another Space began to shift.

An unidentified crack that spit out such a ridiculous guy.

Toward the Prototype Rift.

“It’s an incomplete crack.”

Players from the Crusade Alliance who were caught up in the Archana Continent Prototype Crack. I thought I had glimpsed the possibility of a connection between the Arcana Continent and reality within it.

“…Maybe that’s why it’s even more ominous.”

Only half of Yugweed, the fusion intelligence, had appeared in reality.

Considering the possibility of a connection between reality and the Arcana Continent. The rest were likely to have appeared on the Arcana continent.

“It’s different from a normal crack. At this moment, the Arcana Continent could be dealing with the same guy as us. In that case… it means that we cannot expect help from the Arcana Continent.”

It was indeed a gloomy guess, but accurate confirmation was needed.

Another Space’s camera zoomed in toward the crack.

OK.

“…I see you!”

“see? what? “The magic tower?”

“Oh no. “You can see the inside of the crack!!”

Scenery inside the crack.

To be precise, the scenery of the Arcana continent was visible as expected.

Why doesn’t this ominous premonition turn out to be correct?

As expected, isn’t that side struggling too?

“Damn it.”

It was a moment when I had a hard time holding back the swearing.

In brilliant light.

This time, I saw a scene that shouldn’t have been seen.

Yes.

“?!!”

A sight that leaves you speechless.

-Another Space issue. I hope you respond.

A sight that made me forget even the urgent communication.

“….”

After silence, the man muttered in vain.

“This is Another Space.”

Even if you don’t believe it.

“On the Arcana continent beyond the Prototype Crack…”

All the filming records were telling the story.

“The death of player Lee Ho-yeol has been captured…!”
