The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring chapter 204

204 – 195.To the Mage’s Tower-2

The research institute I was assigned to was the most remote place in Fail.

It was close to the smelly sewer, so the outside of the laboratory was covered with mold, moss, and vines.

Inside, there was a musty smell and a large number of rats were hiding, and there was no rusty equipment as the facility was aging.

In fact, it wouldn’t be strange to say that it was an abandoned house.

“This is gross.”

“Yes, he truly discriminates against people and treats them poorly.”

If Princess Charlotte had sent one of her closest aides, she might have gone on a rampage with fury.

It’s because the royal aides, who are not lacking even if they are treated as VIPs, are assigned to an aging place.

“This is also possible because it is the Mage Tower.”

The Magic Tower is acting as if it doesn’t care about the power of the Holden family.

Their pride was so tongue-in-cheek, that among the aspirations revealed by the tower master, there was a saying that they would create the ultimate magic that no one could touch.

A topic with so many weaknesses that it could be destroyed at once by the demon king.

Even considering that the Demon King is the final boss of Adog Choi, it was shocking in many ways that the Demon Tower, which was said to be the self-proclaimed strongest, was destroyed without lasting even three days.

“The demon king’s line at that time was the highlight… ….”

“Watch your mouth. If anyone had heard of it, they would consider you a follower of the Demon King.”

The lord of the tower who begged for his life pathetically and the devil looking down at him with contempt.

You don’t know how exhilarating it was when he said he wasn’t even worth using as a rich for the magic tower lord.

It was regrettable that the devil, not Bern, destroyed the tower.

“I am a follower of the Demon King…. It may not be exactly wrong.”

“Hmm? Didn’t you hate the demon king enough to get angry at this body for not wanting to become the demon king?”

“It’s because I don’t want to be everyone’s enemy. I have no ill feelings toward the current Demon King.”

Rather, it belonged to my favorite side.

The appearance confirmed through the illustration was not only pretty to the point of regretting that he was a villain, but I liked it because he had a serious personality.

Intelligence that behaves prudently befitting the position of the king of the demons and lightly sabotages the human side’s strategy.

And it even had the power to drive the main character, Kang Joon-hyeok, to death.

Due to the presence or absence of the main character’s buff, he was defeated and died, but there was no doubt that he was an attractive character.

If I were Kang Jun-hyeok, I think I would have worked hard to court her and make her my woman.

‘For that to happen, I’ll need enough strength to crush even the demon king.’

From noble mtl dot com

It’s a difficult task, but it wasn’t impossible with Kang Jun-hyeok’s body, which has no growth limit.

Of course, it might be possible if he surpasses the Bern of the original and still becomes stronger.

Since it was still only a long story, I decided to skip it.

“Rather than that, what are you going to do with this institute? You seriously don’t want to work in a dump like this, do you?”

“Of course I have to tear it apart and fix it. It will take some time, but we will improve step by step.”

The Mage Tower was a force of thorough meritocracy, except for the Mage Tower lord who was revered like a god.

Indeed to kneel down to talented people who show clear results.

I don’t think it’s good for the magic tower, but after earning trust by accumulating performance, I plan to aim for the tower.

The first step is the remodeling of the research institute.

“Today, let’s just finish cleaning up and go home.”

The state of the research center was so messed up that I didn’t know what to do first.

To the point where I couldn’t find a single useful part.

Therefore, I was planning to throw away the sundry items inside.

Because even the furniture and magic tools were rusted or rotted and reached an unusable level.

There was nothing more foolish than trying to rewrite it again.

“Wouldn’t it be a waste?”

“Not at all! In the first place, the element necessary for magic application is imagination, not auxiliary magic tools.”

Using telekinesis, he drew everything inside the laboratory.

Those that were blocked because of their large volume were cut into small pieces by shooting sword energy with his bare hands.

So they made spheres with the instruments put together and burned them with high-temperature flames without hesitation.

In the case of non-combustible items, they were then frozen and crushed into powder.

In just a few seconds, I cleaned up all the trash that was taking up space.

“I always regretted not having a computer, but this is nice again.”

It was a good feeling that science and magic each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Thanks to that, I have already completed a third of the remodeling work without much effort.

What remained was to remove mold and stains from the outer walls and interior of the laboratory, and create an internal environment.

“This should be easy too.”

All the vines were cut with the wind system, and high-pressure water was sprayed to make the walls pure white.

The stinging stench rising from the sewer was blocked by the magic circle of headwinds.

The rats that were illegally moving into the laboratory were forced to evict by Chaos.

As the research director, from now on, only me and the wizards who made the undead should use it, so I wasn’t planning on accepting any other living things.

“King!”

“Looks like it’s already over, good job.”

“Wow!”

The chaos that was driven out by finding all the places where mice hid with their excellent senses.

I patted Chaos on the head saying he did well while watching the rat run away into the sewer.

It wasn’t a big deal, so I didn’t pet him, but he seemed to like this reward, and Hon-don laughed.

“It finally feels like a place where people can live. What are you planning to fill the empty space with?”

“On the way back to the dorm, I should stop by the furniture store and place a large order.”

“By using funds from the Mage Tower?”

“No, I dispose of the furniture at will, so I plan to cover the necessary items with my own money.”

“You don’t look like a contractor. Normally, I would never try to lose money.”

“The Mage Tower has suffered huge losses relatively recently. Those guys will provide a lot of financial support to me, who is a thorn in the eye.”

I couldn’t make any demands on the mage tower until I was recognized for my achievements and became a famous person in Pale.

Since you forged your identity and entered the enemy camp, you must solve numerous difficulties on your own.

So you can ask for a bigger reward from the Mage Tower later.

“Today ends with this. The full-fledged operation of the research center should begin tomorrow.”

The remodeling work was completed in less than two hours.

It’s a bit early to go back to the dorm, but since it’s a commemorative first day, I decided to leave work early with Prach.

“By the way, contractor.”

“Huh?”

“Looking at your ability to apply magic, I think that the method of application is very important. Do you know why the Mage Tower’s laboratory is like that?”

“Oh, that’s right. It’s because of the Master of the Magic Tower.”

“Does the Master of the Tower hate the application of magic in a different way?”

“That’s not true, because the wizards of Fail tend to use magic in the same way as the mage lord. It can be seen that application methods other than those adopted by the Master of the Magic Tower are naturally ignored.”

As a wizard, you must have strong self-judgment. You must create your own magic and make your dreams come true.

However, the wizards of the Tower of Mage continued to make ceaseless efforts, advancing within the framework set by the Master of the Tower.

Not knowing that you only become stronger when you break the mold.

‘In the original work, the wizards only started getting stronger after the tower was destroyed by the demon king.’

It was a pity, but on the other hand, it was self-sufficient, so he smiled with a smile.

I wondered what the future of mages would change because of me.

“Hmm, I wonder how the mage master will use his magic.”

“That makes me curious too.”

Although the magic of the mage tower often appears in Adok Choi, there was no scene where the person directly uses magic.

Even in the last appearance, there was only a scene where he begged for his life after being defeated by the demon king, but there was no description of the fight.

Maybe that’s why I became more curious.

“If you think about it carefully, you said that the master of the mage tower was level 8 or higher, but it is surprising that the demon king said that it was not even worth making into a lich.”

“There may be other reasons.”

“Is that so?”

Suddenly, I remembered the personal information of the owner of the mage tower that I had seen a while ago.

At the age of 5, he awakened electric magic by holding a thunderbird feather to his genitals.

Couldn’t it be that you shoot magic with your crotch instead of a staff?

“Puhahahaha!”

I burst into laughter imagining the absurd scene.

How could someone called the pinnacle of magicians do such a vulgar thing?

***

A private room filled with heat.

Inside it was a mature woman with a shining crystal ball.

It wasn’t long before I was proud of the way he was doing his best while looking at the crystal ball.

As soon as the crystal ball’s light faded, the woman waving her hand turned into an old man.

“Whoa… !”

“You worked hard on the broadcast, Lord of the Tower!”

“…… How much is your income today?”

“Even on the 2nd day, donations exceeded 1,000 gold! If this continues, I think we will be able to quickly recover from the financial crisis.”

“Clack! Not bad but we need lots of more funds. I am not satisfied with that.”

“I will tell the Broadcasting Planning Department to prepare more innovative content.”

“Yes, and during today’s broadcast, the psychedelic magic almost broke. So, prepare a large quantity of Viagra tomorrow.”

“Ha, but then the state of health of the Master of the Magic Tower….”

“The future of the Mage Tower is more important than my health! Are you going to disobey my orders now?”

“Oh no! I will prepare it right away!”

“Tsk! Be careful not to answer me in the future.”

“I will keep this in mind!”

A female secretary whose eyes were shining despite being scolded by the owner of the Magic Tower.

It was because the hard work of the Mage’s lord, who worked hard for the future of her Mage’s Tower, seemed brilliant to her.

With that in mind, the female secretary reaffirmed that she would follow the Mage Tower Master with all her heart.

She made that decision even though she knew where the source of the magic that the Magic Tower Master manifested was, and she couldn’t help but say it was light years.
