The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 593



Chapter 593. One-Way Traffic (2)

Priorities are always important.

‘Right now, my priority is to find Ulrich.’

Ulrich was apparently unharmed after being thrown out of the Claudi territory. It’s not that I tracked it with magic, it’s just that failure didn’t occur to me in the quest goal.

‘But.’

Even if I confronted Ulrich now, it wouldn’t solve my questions, and judging from Grandfell’s fierce demeanor, it was more likely that it was for Ulrich’s benefit to be the center of attention.

And as I said.

The most important thing is that this is ‘our’ problem.

Of course, it was all my opinion.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, right?

From now on, Grandfell.

I’m not going to take your opinion into account.

One-way traffic will be met with one-way traffic!

That’s right. I was making a fuss. I was being sassy, the first time I’d ever used my authority as a landlord to barge in and out of a tenant’s apartment.

“You know that, right? Procedure comes first.”

I started off by doing everything I could to make sure that Grandfell couldn’t get rid of me.

I’ve declared to the Tower Master, Marcelo, that I’ll take on enough burdens to fill a parchment, and I’ve decided to be even more active in the fight for the Holy War Alliance’s Commander in Chief.

I can still hear it in my ears.

-“Huh? Will you agree to an interview?!

-“Um, really, the commander-in-chief personally gave me swordsmanship instruction……?”

-“I would be honored if you would!”

Their reactions were as if they were dreaming.

Of course, I wasn’t so sure.

Why have I been whining all this time, suffering from Grandfell?

‘……You’re going to die in the future, Hoyeol. Really.’

Because the accumulated fatigue of body and mind did not discriminate between me and Grandfell. In other words, we were jointly and severally liable. But I was going to hold on to Grandfell as long as my body was tattered.

seuseuseug.

A feather pen that moves cheerfully.

Naturally, our Grandfell, who is full of responsibility, adheres to discipline, proves underestimations, and realizes overestimations, was adapting to his new work early on.

“It’s an interesting concern in its own way.”

Anyway, there is no way to do it half-heartedly?

Of course, it has to be good.

I checked the words scrawled with a feather pen.

Special conference organized by Chief Lee.

The Chief of the Magic Tower. The Chief of the Magic Tower wields enormous power. I hadn’t realized it when Marcelo was Chief, because I’d been stuck with him as co-chief.

‘I realized that I could definitely take the initiative and do something.’

….

Of course, no matter how powerful a person was, everything was possible only with the consent of the leadership. However, at the moment, the only leader of the Magic Tower, that is, my boss, is Marcelo.

‘With the Cat Tower Master gone, there’s no one to interfere.’

Marcelo would never oppose my will.

The special conference organized by the chief was also immediately granted permission to be held. Perhaps that’s why our Grandfell, who does not waste anything, is so eager.

Thumping.

The released magic power begins to draw a picture in the air.

“Reversal Magic.”

The magic manifests and reverses itself, transforming from drawing to drawing to pure particles again and again. It was the moment when traces of magical power were engraved in the chief’s office.

Our Grandfell shakes his head.

“No, this is not enough.”

I, Lee Hoyeol, listen to Grandfell’s words.

‘I knew it would be like this.’

I couldn’t hide my satisfied smile.

‘Look, I guess I can’t do anything about your personality, right?’

It is said that people who have been beaten get hit well. Having suffered from this guy’s temper, shouldn’t I be able to put that temper to good use? As you can see, you are in the palm of my hand, Grandfell.

“I’m sorry, but I have no intention of letting you go.”

Whether he realized it or not, Grandfell was as eager as ever to take on the task at hand.

…..

A brain that never stops spinning.

Thanks to this, my head became more complicated, and my eyes began to spin, but……. I decided to stop arguing about whether I was making a profit or a loss.

“Whatever.”

I said, just grabbing your ankles.

Grandfell paid no heed to my resolve.

I’m just naively focused on the task at hand.

Finally, Grandfell concluded.

“In the end, it’s the [『Anomaly』] that matters.”

Wait, anomaly?

No, isn’t that a bit early?

Not to the players, but to me!

I couldn’t help but interject.

That’s the way it is, right?

Suddenly, grandiose statements come to mind.

I couldn’t help but get hot with cold.

‘If I told you that ordinary internet surfing is a quest of anomaly, would you say……?’

What the hell would people think?

Why, there’s more than just anomaly, right?

I mean, come on.

‘But is this something you’ll really enjoy?’

“Haa.”

Nam Taemin tied his hair tightly and gave a sarcastic glare.

Where his gaze was directed.

There was Hisagi, who was looking unusually bad today.

Looking at that face, sarcasm automatically comes out.

“You have a glow on your face, don’t you?”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

“You should be grateful, It means it’s as shiny as a snake.”

“It’s expensive after all. Shiny snake skin.”

Hisagi smirks.

“More than the skin of any other beast.”

“What, what, you bastard?!”

“I don’t know why the beast is so angry.”

The reason for Nam Taemin’s extreme sensitivity was simple.

“Then I’ll just leave. To learn ‘Reversal Magic.’”

This was because it was not long before the special lecture on the founding of the 『Reverse Magic School』 that the Commander-in-Chief had announced would begin. Nam Taemin grabbed the cushion lying on the sofa as if it were Hisagi’s collar and beat him up.

peobeobeog.

“Ah! This is discrimination, isn’t it, Mr. Hoyeol?”

What comes out naturally is the name, not the title.

Nam Taemin didn’t realize it, but it was because Hoyeol was starting to feel like Hoyeol. After he told me a creepy joke while I was still nervous.

“I don’t feel bad about it, though.”

So much has changed.

The biggest change, of course, is the activities of the Holy War Alliance.

Nam Taemin shrugged his shoulders.

He shouldn’t have said that, not when he was in the middle of a battle.

“Actually, I was getting a little tired myself.”

The Holy War Alliance was a formidable force that had no equal on the Arcana continent and in reality, except for the Ten Thrones of the Demon World. But even with all their power, the Holy War Alliance never made the first move.

Why?

Nam Taemin was guessing. He wondered if they simply hadn’t met the Commander in Chief’s standards. Maybe that’s why he felt a little proud.

“Maybe we’re finally qualified to learn and wield it.”

It seemed to give him hope that he could finally move forward with Hoyeol.

Needless to say, Nam didn’t waste this opportunity. As he said, the Holy War Alliance had a lot of work to do. He wouldn’t be able to envy Hisagi forever.

Suddenly.

As if to prove the point.

Nam Cheolmin, armed with proper armor for the first time in a long time.

He opened the door and asked.

“Taemin, are you ready to go?”

“Of course. I just finished earlier.”

“Really? I ran into Hisagi in the elevator earlier, and he seemed to be in a very good mood. Did you guys make up for your fight last night? Is my little brother starting to grow up?”

He seemed in a really good mood?

It seemed like a vein was standing on his forehead.

Nam Taemin regained his composure.

“That’s right, hyung. I need to grow up.”

Only then will we be able to fulfill the mission Mr. Hoyeol has entrusted to us at this moment. The brothers hurried on their way. Suddenly, inside the Gaon Building, we saw a small face.

“Huh, okay, thank you for your hard work.”

Scattered hair and tattered pajamas.

She yawned and waved goodbye.

It was Leonie.

“…But, you know what bro?”

Nam Taemin lightly ignored Leonie’s harsh greeting and approached Nam Cheolmin and asked. That was probably because the combination of this Arcana Continent Expedition was quite unfamiliar.

“Why us, Shinhwa, and the Yusra Kingdom?”

Of all the Great Alliances, Gaon stuck out like a sore thumb.

Of the many guilds in the Holy War Alliance, Shinhwa was the one that stood out.

And from the Kingdom of Yusra, the elite imperial army led by King Hakuna.

Nam Cheolmin shrugged his shoulders.

“Well. I’ve been racking my brain for days, and I can’t figure out why. It’s just that King Hakuna is so easygoing.”

A friend of a friend.

Thanks to their passion, they were Nam brothers who unintentionally maintained a close relationship with King Hakuna. Therefore, it was understandable that he was working with Hakuna’s imperial elite army.

“ ….”

“……But I have no idea about Shinhwa. Even if we’re not as close as we used to be, we’re still not that close. Taemin, you haven’t changed much with Yiseol, have you?”

“We don’t talk as much as we used to, hyung.”

Taemin’s eyebrows began to knit together.

“Baek Yiseol, I still get shivers when I think about what she did?! That’s right, I can ignore all the things that were tangled up in Shinhwa and Gaon as a human being. Hisagi, why would you bring that up when you’re under the same roof as that asshole?”

“Really? Then why are you so pissed off?”

“No, look at this.”

He held out his smartphone.

Then, search for the three-character name in the search bar: Lee Ho Yeol.

Nam Taemin scratched his head.

“What’s wrong with the Commander-in-Chief? Is there an article about him?!”

“No, not there, but here!”

“If it were here…”

“That’s right! No matter what, the Green Window is a Korean site, so who should pop up first in related searches? I hate to say this, but ……. Korea’s pride, hope, and only top ranker since the days of Arcana Continent Biography!”

A voice as loud as his size.

Nam Cheolmin was relieved inside.

Thank God we’re the only ones in the elevator.

“Of course my name should come up as the commander’s first related search term. But look at this, bro. Even if Jesse Heinness is like that, what is Baek Yiseol? Baek Yiseol!!”

The related search terms, and their rankings, were as follows.

“…Related search terms?”

1. Lee Hoyeol
2. Lee Hoyeol famous quotes
3. Lee Hoyeol words
4. Lee Hoyeol’s Ttogak Highlights
5. Lee Hoyeol and Baek Yiseol
6. Lee Hoyeol Jesse Heinness
7. Lee Hoyeol Figure.

“It’s not unfair that I was pushed by a figure and disappeared!”

I’ve stayed quiet until now.

Just looking at it, it seems unfair.

Nam Cheolmin burst into laughter.

“It can’t be helped, can it? It was such an unusual case.”

“Anyway, the problem is with reporters, especially entertainment reporters? What kind of big deal is that, bringing it out of memory when it’s worth forgetting?”

“Well, because people want it?”

“Want it? Hmmm.”

It was refreshing to see Baek Yiseol, who was not only noble but also strangely unlucky, completely broken by Hoyeol. It was a moment when Nam Taemin was unconsciously trying to understand his ranking.

Nam Cheolmin skillfully turned the reins.

“Well, at least it’s not a reason to get serious, right?”

“Huh? Well, that’s true.”

“Isn’t that enough?”

Nam Cheolmin didn’t say it out loud.

There was one reason why this combination was formed. Baek Yiseol and King Hakuna. The two of them had been growing unusually fast lately.

‘Maybe you’ve left it up to us.’

Nam Cheolmin nodded.

I don’t think we can fathom all of the Commander in Chief’s intentions.

Still, let’s do our best.

He began his briefing.

“Approximately one week Arcana time to Behemoth’s Maw.”

*

Really, I thought it was a foolproof plan.

“Are you ready to step into unknown territory?”

Magic Tower.

The Crystal Hall.

Even Grandfell at the lectern, his snout twitching.

‘I thought I had a pretty good idea of the big picture.’

『The Reversal Magic School』

Prior to the inaugural special lecture, Grandfell handled the suddenly increased workload with ease. I, Lee Hoyeol, felt like I was going to die of overwork, but I was still able to endure.

Because there was a corner called Grandfell that I believed in!

By the way, Grandfell.

What if I keep my mouth shut at this time?

Be honest with me.

Is this revenge?

This sensation of the snout rising and falling at will.

You’re smiling, Grandfell!

‘You’re doing this to fuck with me, aren’t you?!’

As usual, Grandfell is silent.

I, Lee Hoyeol, started to feel a cold sweat break out on my spine.

I face the uncomfortable stares.

‘Tell me how to teach the Reversal Magic, really….!!’
