The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 229: Mouth of Doom (1)



Chapter 229: Mouth of Doom (1)

Marcelo put down his feather pen and sighed.

Its really not easy, Sir Hoyeol.

Theory of magic.

A concept that could organize all existing magic into a theory. However, Reversal Magic created by Hoyeol couldnt easily be captured in the framework of the theory.

Ive been holding on to it since yesterday.

Marcelo had put down his duties as chief for a while.

No matter how fascinated he was by the theory of reversal magic.

Marcelo couldnt turn a blind eye to the chiefs work.

But he had a good reason to put it down.

As expected, its good to see you awake.

Yeah, because Tower Master had returned to the tower.

Marcelo left his vacancy to the Tower Master.

Someone would ask, wasnt it a bad thing?

In fact, the Tower Master even pushed back his own work.

He had been playing around.

I never taught you like this, Little Chief.

The Tower Master cats tail slumped down.

He licked his fur with his tongue.

His behavior was extremely lazy.

Most of all, I am an injured person. The internal injuries I suffered on the day of the reckless explosion still havent healed. Ugh, my joints still hurt here and there. Stop this animal cruelty, Little Chief.

Contrary to his words.

He couldnt hide the rustle of his tail.

The Tower Master, who was lying down and just wagging his tail, didnt really seem to have any intention of working.

It cant be helped.

In the end, Marcelo used the last resort.

According to Sir Hoyeol.

?

There is a saying in the world of adventurers. Those who do not work, do not eat.

He was just quoting Sir Hoyeols words.

Tighten!

But the Tower Masters tail immediately stiffened and he continued.

What? Are you going to starve me?

No way. How could I starve the Tower Master? But now that Sir Hoyeol has guided me in the manifestation of oddity. I have also become proficient in using oddity.

T-Thats!

What Marcelo took out was none other than a smartphone.

When you used the product of [science] in theMage Tower, it was called oddity.

Marcelo, who was infected with Hoyeols sophistry, continued.

Do you know? With just a lift of a finger, you can summon an object to your office. You can summon any object you want without consuming mana.

Is that true?

Tower Masters eyes opened wide.

It was a method that he had never seen before while he was with Jessie.

It was interesting.

What does that have to do with starving myself?

Point

The moment the Tower Master opened up his ears.

Marcelo moved his finger.

Popular cat snacks.

Snack?

Have you ever heard of this snack?

Squeak

The higher the level of transformation magic, the more it completely took the characteristics of the transformed object.

Following his instinct.

The Tower Master couldnt help but twitch his nose at the smell.

What is that?

Indeed.

What Marcelo took out of the drawer was a long stick.

An oddity, it was a bonito-flavored snack that he ordered by rocket delivery.

Dash!

The Tower Master, driven by his instinct, rushed at Marcelo, but he had no chance.

Marcelo no longer had the curse of terminal illness.

Thanks to this, he had regained his full strength and couldnt lose the snack to just a mere cat.

I was told, If you dont work, you shouldnt eat.'

I will work if you give it to me first.

Tower Master hasnt worked yet.

Meow.

He couldnt beat his instincts.

Press

Press down

Press

In the end, the Tower Master had no choice but to stamp the cats paw on parchments.

Marcelo grabbed the feather pen again and started organizing the reversal magic.

As you can see, you dont have to worry about the Mage Tower, Sir Hoyeol.

It was a short period.

A weeks rest.

He hoped Sir Hoyeol found what he was looking for.

.

.

.

Yusra.

Golden Palace.

Hakuna, the king of Yusra, wiped away his sweat.

Even though he picked up the sword late, he felt like he had gotten the knack for it.

The number of agreements exchanged one by one each day had increased

Hakuna smiled slightly.

If I work harder, I will be able to do my part.

He also needed to be helpful to his benefactor.

Hakuna was taking a break while making that determination.

He was surprised by the information from Harkon, who was helping him with his training.

The benefactor is away from the Mage Tower?

Thats right.

I thought he would definitely be busy with the work of the Mage Tower

He naturally thought so.

Hoyeol had conveyed the wish to take a break to the Yusra Kingdom and Hakuna himself.

Of course, the period was extremely short, only one week.

However, the fact that it never happened before meant a lot.

Harkon thought as he cleaned up his sword.

As expected, there must be something, Sir Hoyeol.

He had felt Hoyeols angry spirit in the Demon Kings Castle.

It was unfamiliar to Harkon as well.

So he was able to vaguely guess it.

Its something related to Claudie.

It was a pity that Harkon fell here.

If this was the Arcana Continent.

He would have rushed to the capital of the Empire, Antonium, and reported the status of war to His Majesty.

He would have obtained the permission to enter it.

Archive of War.

A sanctuary of knowledge that had sustained the Empire.

It was safe to say that the history of the Arcana Continent lay dormant there.

Naturally, he would start with the meaning of Claudie. If Hoyeol had any questions about Claudie, Hoyeol would have been able to hear the answers to those questions.

As he sighed, Hakuna continued.

Its still painful not to be able to help.

I think so too.

I need to become stronger.

Hakuna clenched his fist.

He had finally overcome the past and began to take up the sword.

He knew it was impossible to confront the demons right now, but

If only I could join on the expedition.

Then he could have known what had happened to the benefactor, too.

But using his time to mope around would be a waste.

Hakuna gripped his sword.

Harkon, I would like to ask you to continue the training.

Youre very motivated.

I cant just be indebted to him forever, can I?

Oh my, youre saying what I want to say.

Clang

Swords with the same intention clashed.

*

Not only the Mage Tower, I also submitted a leave of absence to the Yusra Kingdom.

Was there a reason why I suddenly applied for a leave of absence?

Well, something more important than work had come up.

Indeed.

Skal was looking for me.

He said his dragon knight class quest was flashing!

Now that I knew that the matter of dragons and Cloudie were related.

Skals quest was no longer someone elses business.

Of course, failing Benschs tower exit application and watching over the Yusra Kingdom were important. But this was basically an emergency.

By the way

As soon as I went out of the portal, I saw a cluster of lights.

I almost fainted when I saw Skals mansion.

From the first time we met, I thought he used an excessively aristocratic tone

Wasnt his taste very classy and incongruous?

Not only is it big, its too old-fashioned, isnt it?

Why were there so many statues in the yard?

The statues were not ordinary either.

This was evident from the fact that no harsh words came out of Grandfels mouth.

Thats great.

There was no compliment greater than this.

What it meant was simple.

Each and every statue was a masterpiece that would remain in human history.

Did he spend all the money he earned from being no.1 in the ranking on something like this?

Just as I was immersed in materialistic thoughts, I heard a sound.

Clip clop

I was wondering why there were sounds of hooves, but it was Skal.

I am sorry, Sir Hoyeol, I should have been the one who came to you!

It was a tone of speaking that was worse than that of a historical drama

As expected it wasnt easy for players to get used to hearing the address Sir.

However, there was no way an emotional change would appear on this iron face.

I answered calmly.

You dont need to worry. It wasnt a bad impression.

I even evaluated the statue out of the blue.

Skal immediately stepped off the horse and guided me.

The inside of the mansion was even more magnificent.

Above all, there were so many portraits hanging.

There was no other real aristocratic mansion like this.

Of course, it should feel unfamiliar and uncomfortable, but

This guys formality was truly amazing.

I was more than just feeling comfortable in this mansion.

It also felt so familiar that it made me think a lot of things.

Anyway, that was the end of my random thoughts.

As I said, issuing a one-week leave of absence.

And visiting Skals mansion.

There was a separate reason why I did all that.

Sir Hoyeol wouldnt believe me, Im sorry for this.

There is nothing to apologize for.

I am devastated for your understanding. Then, I will inform you of my business.

I should be the one devastated.

I was so shocked by that way of speaking that I felt like I was going to pass out.

Skal continued with a serious look.

The gathering, which was said to have been led by the old dragon, has ended.

Time on the Arcana Continent was about four times faster than in reality.

No matter how much talk they exchanged.

Their conversation must be over by now.

However

Um First, let me share the quest goal!

I was stunned to see the renewed quest goal.

Dragon.

What on earth did they do at the gathering

[Class quest: Summoning All Dragons]

The old dragon shouted.

The great family has returned to the Arcana Continent.

Every dragon wants to find out the truth of the case.

Witness the dragons gathering on the continent. (Fail)

Encounter the dying Old Dragon, Eunaxus. (In Progress)

All of a sudden, Eunaxus is dying?

I didnt know about anything else, but I could guarantee this one thing.

Eunaxus was not hostile to Haiel.

Instead of getting angry at Haiel for landing on the bridge of his nose.

He even sent telepathy to me who was watching him.

Dont worry. Everything is Mothers will. Even if I die, there is no reason to be sad. Dawn.

No younger brother could beat their older brother.

Eunaxus, are you going to keep your word?

If not that.

Did something unexpected happen at the gathering?

I couldnt figure it out.

But one thing was clear.

You never gave up your will.

I couldnt give up my word either.

It was a caution that never failed to come true.

When I heard the telepathy from Eunaxus.

I had recited.

The will of the World Tree, you said. Youre mistaken.

No parent wants the death of their child.

We need to talk, Eunaxus.

So what I had to do was already decided.

I looked at Skal.

Skal was restless and shaking his legs.

No. There will be one less dragon for me to ride

It seemed the direction of his worry was wrong, but it didnt matter.

I declared to Skal.

Starting with the [Evil Dragon Hunter] quest.

I felt like I was somehow hijacking his quests.

Skal, I will ask you for your understanding.

What do you mean, Sir Hoyeol?

I need to talk about something with Eunaxus.

Eunaxus Is that perhaps the name of the old dragon?

Thats right.

!

Are you surprised?

It seemed he didnt expect me to know the name of the old dragon stated in the quest. I actually just found out while peeking at the continent with the Evil Eyes Telescope

Grandfel didnt bother to correct that overestimation.

As expected, you were far ahead.

Even if Skal spoke in a depressed voice, I could only listen.

But before I could even get the chance to comfort him, Skal opened his mouth.

Actually, I was prepared.

Youre tearing up, are you sure youre prepared?

Of course, its about pride. In that case, I can yield to you as you want. Of course, I would be very sad if I couldnt live up to the title of the dragon knight, but

I was wondering why he was so worried.

Was he worried that he might not be able to board the dragon?

You have a straightforward mindset, Skal.

Actually, I know its still a long time before I can confront a dragon. Even if I force myself to follow Sir Hoyeol, I will only get in the way. It was thanks to Sir Hoyeol that my class quest suddenly progressed.

Skal nodded as if he had made up his mind.

I hope you can meet Eunaxus on my behalf since I am still lacking. I can entrust the dragon to you, not anyone else Sir.

His anguish was conveyed through the slumped tail of the horse.

But thank you for your understanding, Skal.

I am thankful, so I guess I can at least answer your question.

By the way, werent the dragons, including the Eunaxus, staying on the Arcana continent? As far as I know, there is no way to access the Arcana Continent

Because I felt grateful, I wanted to give him a cool answer.

Actually, I didnt know yet either.

But what I said always came true.

Hadnt our Grandfel declared it?

I would return to the Arcana Continent.

You dont have to worry about that.

Someone is worrying a lot about this, but you speak really well, Grandfel.

For me, its a problem if I go, but its also a problem if I dont go.

If I went there, I would get involved with Claudie.

If I didnt, there was still the matter with Eunaxus.

In the end, I had no choice but to act according to the results.

If I find a way, Ill go.

The way to enter the Arcana Continent.

Exploring that method was also one of the reasons why I submitted a leave of absence.

From now on, I had to do my best to find the means and methods.

Shall I start by purifying the demon kings loot dropped by Andras?

Who knows, there might be another effect like the [Map].

In order to purify the demons item.

I needed a demon.

I would have to focus on my job as a demon hunter for the first time in a while.

Oh gosh, I was so anxious that I overlooked the formalities. How about black tea?

I refuse.

Gasp.

Dont get me wrong, Skal.

Its not because I have a particular feeling.

Its simply because I dont like black tea.

If it was green tea, I would have accepted.

The moment I got up from my seat and left Skal behind.

Bzz

I felt a sudden vibration.

It was a message from the head of AAUs Korea branch, Park Minjae.

In a way, it was like a text message from a coworker.

Now that I thought about it, I didnt submit a leave of absence to AAU.

There must be a lot of things to worry about.

Grandfel was stricter about rules than anyone else.

No matter how busy I was.

I should play the role of the general manager of the Yusra branch once again.

When I checked the text, I stopped in shock.

This mouth of doom was truly like nothing else.

Grandfel had said it.

He had said he would go back to the Arcana Continent.

Raymond Sean sent a message to General Manager Lee Hoyeol!

Raymond Sean, who had gone missing, returned.
