Wizards of the Mage Tower (5)
“That sleepy fool…!”
Elder Admalek, the head of the enemy magic school, could not hold back his anger as he radiated blazing magic.
When the black magicians went missing, he dismissed them as fools, but now he can’t help but laugh.
If it was a mage with a moderately low class, it would have been roughly abandoned. The problem is that the kidnapped Professor Joline is the direct apprentice of Elder Admalek.
The 7th floor mage, the professor, just below the 8th floor mage, Elder Admalek. This means that he is the next elder of the school.
Although the Mage’s treatment of apprentices is worse than that of graduate students, at the level of apprentices, they are valuable successors.
I cannot afford to lose a disciple whom I have selected and nurtured over the course of several decades from among the first-born chicks with innate magical power and genius.
“I admit he did some stupid things. But we have to save him!”
Admalek’s candid admission. And at the request for cooperation, the magicians of the black school of magic expressed their disapproval.
The same goes for the black faction’s Arkai, the disciple of Elder Morshtan.
“This is the work of the red faction. We, the black faction, are obligated to participate in the war…”
“Shut up your mouth, kid. Who gave you permission to speak?”
Admalek looked at Elder Morshtan, the leader of the black faction.
Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?
No matter what, in the end, the absolute decision maker of the school is the elder class mage. You don’t need to listen to the opinions of the things below.
“······Helps.”
“S, Master?”
“It’s not just a matter of the Order… it’s… he’s figured out our purpose.”
“That’s right. Who the hell is this guy?”
There were too many doubts.
Who is the clown in the video, and how far has the information been spread?
In the meantime, the enemy’s lieutenant mage carefully advised his teacher, Admalek.
“Master… since what he’s asking for is gold coins, the first step is to raise funds…”
“Stupid! The Mage Tower doesn’t negotiate with those guys!”
The pride of the mage tower does not allow me to donate money obediently. Rescuing his apprentice was important to Admalek, but he also hated giving up his pride.
“If he leaks information… he’ll mess up the business…”
“I know!”
Admalek didn’t say it out of pride, but it’s a problem starting with getting the money.
Where did they come from the Mage Tower on a business trip and get that much money?
“We still have time… We need to search him.”
“You’ll need assets to track him down. The second princess just entered the school, so you’ll need to seek help from the princess.”
“I agree.”
There is still time.
The wizards of the Mage Tower decided to pursue the clown first.
* * * *
Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?
Now, they must have set their butts on fire.
There are three main things they can do in this situation.
1. Silence and collective action. In other words, discard the captured wizards.
2. Arrange the money as I requested.
3. Search for clowns and retaliate.
no. 1? Absolutely not. At least as much as the elder Admalek of the enemy faction.
Even if that bad-tempered inspiration protects patience, the sleepy person I hold is the only heir to the enemy faction no matter what it looks like.
Wizards of the Mage Tower abandon their surnames and show off themselves only with their names and schools.
For Admalek, the enemy magic school was his family, and he was the product of his life as a magician.
There was no way he would easily abandon Jolene, the heir to such a school.
Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?
Neither option 2 is a realistic choice.
The wizards of the Mage Tower are elitists united with pride and pride.
For them, the kidnapping of wizards and taking hostages only bring anger and retaliation, and are not the subject of negotiations.
‘That’s why I gave it a week.’
Inevitably, they choose number 3.
Search and Retaliation. Even if you agree to take the hostage, you’ll have to try 3 times.
So, how will they find me here?
There could be a request to the information guild or a direct search, but… the simplest thing would be to visit Princess Miriam.
“Please, junior.”
“·······.”
boy in front of you. Hasassin’s descendant answers in silence.
“Suddenly offering it as a request to watch over the royal family… It’s a serious crime that can be punished with the death penalty.”
“That’s why I’m not asking my juniors. If it’s you, you won’t get caught.”
“······ No, whenever you tell us to walk the path of a knight.”
Rashid seems dumbfounded at my request. Well, the request I made was an illegal request to keep an eye on Princess Miriam and tell me what kind of conversation she is having with the wizards of the Mage Tower.
“Junior!”
I grabbed Rashid al-Din Mustali by the shoulder.
“What is chivalry!”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Saving the weak, doing good, and defending justice is chivalry, isn’t it?”
“Your tone is a bit…”
“Isn’t it so!”
“······Yes.”
“In other words, it means that it is okay to be slightly cowardly.”
“No, isn’t that… sophistry? Isn’t there a saying to be fair in chivalry?”
“Justice for justice, evil for evil.”
“No, but the pursuit of the royal family…”
“No, no. You’re not chasing after the royalty, you’re spying on the wizards of the Mage Tower.”
“Isn’t that what it is?”
“The words are different, and the law is different.”
I picked up a bag of gold coins and gave it to him.
“Advance payment. Bring the information and I’ll give you the same amount.”
“······Welcome, customer.”
Rashid eventually accepted my request. A guy who just got out of the nest of assassins is broke.
It must have been too much money to refuse my money.
Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?
Now, wait for Princess Miriam to contact the Magic Tower.
A purple suit with a clown makeup with a torn mouth. Miriam will soon find out the identity of the culprit.
Corinne Locke.
That I was the one who dragged aggro in the forest of the Hunting Ground.
If this is the case, there is no reason for Miriam not to report my true identity to the Mage Tower.
The Magic Tower is one of her greatest supporters, and their weakening will soon lead to a weakening of Miriam’s position.
Encourage them to attack by opening the plate. Hit it all at once. this is my plan but······.
From noble mtl dot com
“Oh, I don’t know. There are clowns like this in the world.”
Contrary to my expectations, Miriam didn’t say a word about me.
············what?
* * * *
“Recently, the Mage Tower has been noisy.”
Chairman’s Office. Raising the teacup, Master Erin opened her mouth.
“As you expected, the Mage Tower is trying to find out if we are related to the abducted wizards.
“The problem is that the opponent is not even hooked.”
Miriam did not give any information to the magic tower wizards who came to visit him. To put it bluntly, I didn’t say that I was the culprit.
“Why do you think the child is like that?”
“… Did you see through?”
“Then shouldn’t I have said more?”
He may have noticed Rashid’s surveillance. But is that possible?
Even I, who knew his stealth characteristics, couldn’t notice it unless I carved runes of detection all over the place in advance.
At the very least, there would be no means for Princess Miriam to notice Rashid’s hiding.
Then to take my side?
I don’t understand even more.
She is a cool and calculating person.
I’m not one to throw away my sure side for what may or may not be mine.
“Anyway, it looks like Corinne’s A plan failed. At this rate…”
“They’ll use the midterm exam to make a living.”
This is the situation I most wanted to avoid.
If things go as they are, the wizards of the Mage Tower will intrude into the midterms and cause a catastrophe.
The black magicians who grasped the structure of the academy and facilities such as the laboratory building sprayed chimeras and undead in large quantities, and the red wizards set fire to all directions, causing chaos.
In the meantime, Elder Morshtan and Elder Admalek kidnap Marie, who is confined in the basement of the academy’s main building… Lord Aidrin assassinates the chairman.
this is the original thread. It was an incident in which the damage to the students was magnified by Adrin’s magic.
I was trying to prevent this from happening.
I imprinted myself in the eyes of Princess Miriam by attracting aggro in the hunting ground in a clown costume, and sending a video dressed as a clown to the wizards in the same way.
Based on the information that Miriam gave me, when I was looking at me as the culprit, I was thinking of catching mages in the name of an external mission, but…
Because Princess Miriam didn’t report me, Plan A was ruined from the premise.
“Don’t let me go.”
“but······.”
“If plan A fails, why not switch to B. I’ll get the wizards’ attention.”
“No. What’s the King going to do?”
Tates Baltazar sealed Master in the Shadow Capital 80 years ago.
The reason she can interfere in this Sabah world is thanks to a doll named Eriu Casar.
If this doll is destroyed, Master will not be able to intervene in royalties, and eventually…
“It’s okay. Even if this body breaks, you can break the seal and come out. After 80 years, the seal has weakened.”
“·······.”
I hated that. Because you died like that in the affair and in the previous episode.
My purpose in this episode is to prevent you from even coming out of your shell as Eriu Casar.
In order for Tates Balthazar to be crowned, Erin Danua, the current Queen of Paradise, must be killed.
He planned to prevent that situation and leave him confined to the Shadow Capital until he killed Baltazar.
“Rather than putting Marie in danger, it would be more appropriate for this body that doesn’t mind being broken to bear it.”
“·······.”
There is no reason to refuse. Plan B is a plan made for times like this.
“Before that… let’s do one thing.”
“What do you mean?”
The appearance of Princess Miriam. And if her unexpected behavior was a variable, isn’t there another variable in this episode and this year?
“We turn the table over. So they have no choice but to act.”
* * * *
“Elder Morshtan, the Wizard of the Mage Tower. You are arrested on charges of illegal human experimentation, murder, kidnapping, and confinement.”
The road to the academy. As usual, they attacked the magic tower wizards who led the disciples.
academy entrance. An armed group wearing holy clothes and holy armor confronting about 40 wizards.
“The Protestant Paladin…! What the hell are you doing!”
In terms of the Catholic Church, it is an armed group equivalent to the Knights Templar.
They are the spokespersons for Protestant ‘power’. The fact that they appeared in front of the wizards of the Mage Tower was something no one expected.
“·······.”
The leader of the black faction, Elder Morshtan, stared at the paladins who came to him.
As the head of the Black Wave, he is a Madou who led numerous human experiments. However, for the wizards of the Mage Tower, such suspicion is a basic thing to live with.
The problem is the evidence to prove this, but he has cleaned up after me more neatly than anyone else.
“Receive the aura quietly, Elder Morshtan. You are charged with serious heresy.”
“Sounds funny! The Mage Tower is extraterrestrial! Even the Holy Knights of the Church cannot restrain us!”
The wizards of the Mage Tower confronted Paladin with unanimity.
The atmosphere was grim. The paladins who came to arrest the head of a school, one of the symbols of the Mage Tower, and the wizards of the Mage Tower who stood in the way.
If both of them have combat power, they are an armed group overflowing with energy. If the two groups collide, it would not be strange if a religious war breaks out.
“Everyone stop.”
It was then. A girl appears behind the paladins.
A gorgeous combination of pure white and gold. The unique existence of Protestantism.
“Saint Estelle…”
Estelle Hadassah El Ras. She intervened in this situation.
“What is this, Princess Estelle? Do you intend to persecute this Mage Tower?”
Professor Arkai. Morshtan’s disciple raised his voice.
The authority and power of the Mage Tower is not inferior to Protestantism. It is said that suspicion alone cannot arrest the head of the school.
“Of course, this saintess recognizes the authority of the Mage Tower. However, the charges against Elder Morshtan are serious. Since the accusation has come in, it is necessary to investigate.”
“Without proof…”
“Sure, I have proof.”
Estelle smiled brightly and took out an envelope and video equipment. These are the evidences filmed and recorded at the location that Corinne Locke told me about.
“This······.”
Morshtan was clearly taken aback by these evidences.
A secret laboratory that no one can find out. How did Protestantism know about this place where even Lee Dong secretly entered through his familiar?
“Joe, manipulation…”
“Stop. Our church is carrying out a legitimate heresy investigation according to the rules of the Lord and the public.”
As Estelle held onto the cross and chanted, a light that dazzled even in broad daylight flashed.
Brilliant and warm glow.
The miracle of purification that purifies evil.
The light radiating from Estelle is proof that she is loved by God.
Saint Estelle.
The necromancers, who learned to use apostles and magic with only her prayers, looked distressed.
“Ugh…!”
Staring at them like that, the Protestant saint Estelle smiles sadistically.
“Do you want to quietly follow me or do you want to get hit?”
The last word was not very saintly, but it was enough to subdue the wizards of the Mage Tower.
* * * *
“Damn Protestant bastards!!”
The wizards of the Mage Tower were in a gloomy atmosphere.
Morshtan, the leader of the black faction, was arrested by the church for human experimentation.
It is a different matter from the abduction of low-level magicians or disciples of the school.
“Such bad news overlaps!”
“We must stop the giggling!”
“What kind of people are trying to get in the way of the great magician!”
The red faction mages with fiery personalities showed their enthusiasm, but the black faction had a more turbulent atmosphere.
It was too great that Morshtan, their leader, was captured.
Aside from the fact that the head of the school was captured, the power was running low.
Marie Dunarev, the target, and Eriu Cassar, the chairman of the board, are each strong with a ‘special’.
In order to capture such strong people, mages of at least Elder or higher must be mobilized.
According to the original strategy, Marie was captured entirely by Elder Morshtan.
“Professor Arkai… you mean maybe you like this?”
“·······.”
Morshtan’s disciple, Professor Arkai, was wrapped in anguish. Even if he thinks, there is only one way to overturn this single shot.
“We must speed up the action… before Master is taken to the sacred ground of the Order… we must burn down the academy and rescue him through the chaos.”
“Don’t be crazy! Professor Arkai! Being robbed by some strange clown is also a problem, but in this situation, what kind of guy’s evil! We have to hurry back to the tower!”
“Isn’t the reason why the tycoon was exposed in the first place is because the professor over there blew everything on the clown! The enemy faction is also responsible!”
“What? You filthy necrophiliacs!”
“Did you say that, firefighter!”
Voices between overheated school mages. The leader of the enemy faction, Elder Admalek, did not see this, and subdued them by igniting the flames.
“Keugh?!”
“Eh, Elder Admalek?!”
The flames that developed without even chanting a spell pressed down on the protective robes of the wizards.
Overwhelming firepower to subdue dozens of wizards at once. Surprisingly, this powerful fire did not scorch anything but the wizards.
“This is not the bottom of the market, kids.”
“I’m sorry!”
“Save me… please!”
To Admalek’s fire, the mages all obeyed. I don’t know if it’s a professor, but ordinary wizards are ants’ lives that can be burned to death with one gesture from the elder.
As the mages’ turmoil subsided, Admalek gazed at them silently and shouted in a booming voice.
“Lord Aedrin!”
The reason why high-ranking wizards, who treat the lives of low-level wizards like flies, always involve even the low-level wizards in meetings.
That’s because among them, the Golden Wizard is in disguise.
Admalek spoke proudly, not doubting that Lord Aedrin was among them.
“Elder Morshtan has been captured, and the old man’s power alone is not enough. I need your direct help!”
“·······.”
“·······.”
silent hall. No one calls themselves Aidrin. No wonder.
If he had intended to reveal his true identity, he wouldn’t have worn a disguise.
– Squeak!
-Dreuk…!
It was you. Metal pens, badges, staffs, and everything with metal in the hall began to move on their own.
“This, this?”
“Someone uses magic…!”
The wizards each looked at each other, but none of them could figure out who was currently doing the magic. Even Elder Admalek.
-Clap!
Eventually, the metal stopped moving. It became a single sentence and was telling the magicians.
“Seal the witch.”
The center of all these giants. Even though the operation was exposed and key personnel were arrested, the Golden Wizard came to one conclusion.
It was forced.
