Became the Head of the Magic Tower of Another World - Became the Head of the Magic Tower of Another World chapter 19

19 – It’s a Crime to Help (7)

“Congratulations on your statue, Sir.”

Vina visited my hospital room about a week after the end of the magic competition.

Even in Matap, where sometimes the concept of time got twisted, a week meant enough time for the following three events to pass.

First, after the bait about the unidentified spear mage circulated around the gallery about thirty times, it eventually concluded with the consensus that the Haeju School wasn’t anything special.

Second, Sien, leaning on a crutch, visited the hospital room and gave me a sarcastic remark, saying, “I lost, so why are you staying in the hospital longer than me?”

Lastly, the next class of the lecture on “Why Meteor is an Ice Spell” for apprentices was coming around.

In conclusion, she finally felt something was off and came to find me when she realized I hadn’t been attending the class as an assistant.

Of course, I also had my fault for not specifically mentioning that I was going to the magic competition, so instead of resentment, I was deeply moved by the fact that she came to visit me.

It was like a pure-blooded mage who was gradually getting used to the world’s circumstances, stepping out of the school step by step like a baby duck taking its first steps.

Compared to the first meeting where I punched straight into the opponent’s solar plexus without any hesitation, it was a tremendous development.

“I have a gift for you.”

“Really?”

“Yes, I was actually preparing it to surprise you.”

“This is….”

Of course, even though it was clear to anyone that I still had a long way to go in terms of socialization, as evidenced by the moment when I placed the cake-shaped ice made by magic on my bed.

Not to mention the fact that the blanket began to feel damp, my lower body gradually lost sensation.

As I pondered how to deal with this ice lump, which seemed utterly useless, I came up with one incredible idea.

This ice was, in fact, the result of magic drawn out by the pure magical power of a pure-blooded sorcerer.

Naturally, it would be of great help in improving the proficiency of the “interference device” through Hayju.

When I attempted interference as an experiment, I felt a connection to the iron fortress-like spells that reminded me of a 12-faced cube.

Melting this with my current skills was no different from trying to break a huge block of ice with weak teeth and a tongue.

Beena, who noticed that I was trying to bypass her magic, didn’t particularly show any resistance.

She simply rolled her clear eyes and shifted her gaze from the notes she had taken from the apprentices to me.

“Teacher, are you using magic interference on me?”

“Did you notice?”

“Anyone who is a magician of a certain level can tell when their spells are being tampered with.”

“If it bothers you, should I stop?”

“I’m fine. I didn’t expect this, but since it was given to me by the teacher, feel free to use it as you please.”

Having received permission, I then spent about 30 minutes diligently trying to find the weak spots of the ice cake with my imaginary tongue.

I tried smearing saliva on the weak parts of the spell or attempting to leave scratches with my sharp teeth.

The result was a severe freeze just before the magical circuit collapsed.

The cake was still intact, and I concluded that it would take thousands of hours to break it.

“Are you okay, Sogam?”

“You seem fine, Bina. Does it not burden the caster to have interference during the spell?”

“In my current state, it’s just a bit itchy. It varies depending on the magician’s nature, but at this level, it’s not burdensome. How should I describe Sogam’s interference style…”

“…”

“It’s ticklish, and a bit damp.”

Bina adjusted her posture, gathering her knees on the chair next to the bed.

Although she seemed slightly uncomfortable, her expression remained unchanged.

I suppose that’s the extent of the hierarchy between her and me.

Just piercing through won’t be enough to climb the magic tower all the way. If only there were a dragon-catching contest like the Magic Institute holds every time.

“Anyway, take care of yourself and come out for the next class.”

“Thank you.”

After Bina left, I placed the ice cake on the floor and got up from the bed.

In fact, the injury had improved since last night.

The ankle that was hurt during the landing after the piercing still twinged a bit, but it was at a level where I could walk just fine.

The reason I was still in the hospital room was to be free from all duties, including the dormitory supervisor.

Although neither Sien nor I could participate in the next match, we hadn’t been able to see the Specters, but we quickly made it to the 9th floor.

Now, for the time being, I could return to my original self without any interference.

I took out the spear hidden under the bed.

After confirming once again that there was no one outside the hospital room, I attached a “No Visitors” sign and pulled the curtains, completely blocking out the light.

Finally, I attached a specially made item to the edge of the window and fixed it to the head of the bed. All preparations were complete.

The great adventurer.

At the window.

The verb janitor.

The lord’s vanguard.

Once upon a time, I swept across the entire continent with my comrades. Now, I had only one thing to do, which was to avoid everyone’s watchful eyes.

“You, get out.”

Right away, I started jerking off.

And I did it while lying in bed, using the window ledge as a notepad holder.

[You bastards, piss off!!!!]

This damn kid has been jerking off for 100 hours straight!!

If you want to live, run away!!!!

— 100 hours? Oh sh*t.

— Finally surpassed the limits of a human….

— Mom… When does this damn kid sleep?

ㄴ They say it’s after blocking all the world’s evil.

— Ju-Ddak, who surpassed the 20-hour barrier, is strong.

This… is the quality of a top gallery?

—–

It was not a joke, but a time to focus on the gallery.

Since there were users who had accumulated numerous points through betting, we had to find a way to spend them.

While the positive effects of trying not to get blocked in order to accumulate points were significant, it would be frustrating without any rewards.

Lying on the bed, occasionally licking an ice cream cake, I came up with three main solutions after pondering for four days.

Taking advantage of the weakened surveillance during the magic period, I gradually silenced the arrogant troublemakers and wrote a notice.

[Point Shop Opening Notice]

From Noble mtl dot com

Now that the magic period is over, I’d like to guide the gallery users who have participated in betting on how to use the points you have accumulated so far.

1. Random Box (100,000P)

2. Establishment of a desired board within the gallery (5,000,000P)

3. Invitation to a banquet (30,000,000P)

There are three ways in total to use the points, and the contents and probabilities of the random box are a secret.

Although personal transactions with points are not possible, if you want to establish a board for option 2, voluntary fundraising is possible.

The point shop will only operate for a limited period, so if you cannot purchase the desired items, please look forward to the next season.

And that’s it!

In the gallery, there were separate categories such as “Request Board” and “Report Board.”

However, due to the significantly limited number of options, there had always been a steady demand for information on conquering the Tower or areas where factions could gather.

The announcement that they could create their desired bulletin board using points received a positive response indeed.

Although there were some side effects.

—–

[Finally, our wishes have been granted]

A world where our “dog lovers” can live freely has arrived

Let’s all go to the New Continent

– Dear

– Please hold your breath for just 10 minutes…

– That place is a real abyss

– They say the fundraising is already over? What the hell?

—–

—–

[Request for the establishment of a Strategy Research Institute bulletin board~]

Let’s communicate~

– Wanjang!!!! Come out right now!!!

– These bastards must be banned without exception

– I’ve recorded all the people who threw points earlier

—–

—–

[But who will manage the boards if they keep expanding?]

Are there moderators assigned to each board?

Or is it just self-regulated?

— Moderator: Paradak

— Paradak

Meteor Ice Magic

[We’re going to create a Glacia School board]

Everyone who wants to discuss Meteor is welcome

— I oppose the creation of the Glacia School board~

— I want a Meteor Fire Magic board~

—–

Even if some boards with high water levels were rejected for creation, it was clear that they could still earn a significant amount of points.

But that was not enough.

Since the majority of users wouldn’t bother to visit the boards, a way to satisfy them had to be found.

There was nothing quite like gacha for extracting the most points.

—–

[A date ticket with Jooddak came out!!!!]

Yeah, it’s the “Patak Unlock Voucher.”

There’s no way this has any losers, right?

– Are there any losers?

– No, but it’s too expensive for 100,000 won per try.

– Yeah, I can’t afford to do it many times.

– Maybe it’s because you’re not actively participating in the forum?

– If it weren’t for those damn Haeju School bastards, I would have pulled it three more times!

– Super genius blonde girl: Just hand it over to me right now.

Astronomical Cemetery Keeper

[I found out the contents of the random box.]

20,000 points given

One-on-one chat with Jutak

Patak Unlock Voucher

Immediate establishment of desired bulletin board

1 hour ban

And there were also rare items like Phoenix feathers or dragon leather, but the chances were low.

Most importantly, there was a real Jutak date voucher. It was only for 0.002 seconds, but I saw it clearly. Jutak didn’t lie. I’ll do whatever it takes to pull it, even if it means giving up my entire fortune.

– Is it really true?

– I want to believe in this case.

– A probability of 0.003? It’s probably higher than the lobster content in lobster chips.

– You were able to go on a date with Juttak? I’m going to withdraw the points I put on the Greshia bulletin board and go to the road.

– Why is there a one-hour blockage there? LOL.

– Ah, it’s to make a living. LOL.

—–

—–

[Do I really have to draw to have a one-on-one conversation with Juttak?]

Isn’t it enough to just press a button and have them come running?

– But I’ll be blocked.

– These days, Paratak handles all the responses.

– If it’s a one-on-one conversation, we can talk about external matters in the gallery, right?

– Seriously, isn’t this like a banquet? It’s a chance to ask Topju about magic.

—–

—–

[I’m not going to use this store and just wait.]

There aren’t many people in the gallery who can do a 10-pull right now, and the probability of getting what you want is too low.

The points got too scattered because of the new bulletin board.

And there might be some people who can afford the 3rd confirmed gap because the ceiling is too high.

Juttak, this doesn’t seem like your usual intelligence.

– Because you’re smart, you’re the perfect person for the job~

– Yeah, I couldn’t even spin a few times on the dog lovers’ forum to earn points.

ㄴ You should just die.

– Actually, there’s an easier way to get three points…

ㄴ Just sell it, lolololol

Points quickly running out for users.

I paid attention only to “Freenana” and left everyone else behind.

As a member of the Haeju School, she received overwhelming commission from the bets made by many users in every match she participated in.

Even she herself had the most points in the gallery, as she had correctly bet on the winning team of the magic contest.

The price of the third item, the invitation ticket, was practically designed to empty her points.

It wasn’t much of a burden to call a few more people when she called the other losers.

However, instead of the invitation ticket, Freenana was wasting her points by spinning the gacha endlessly.

As someone who had read all the posts about the item she had used, it was a somewhat strange choice.

Curious about what she was trying to do, I received a message.

It was from Freenana, who had just drawn a “one-on-one conversation ticket” from the gacha.

Freenana: Juttak

Administrator: Yes

Freenana: Can you do me a favor?
