Episode 577: Training (1)
They say that true success requires learning from many failures, but sometimes there comes a time when you absolutely cannot fail.
That’s how it is now.
If you make a mistake, there’s no going back.
Whatever number you use, you have to be able to get the best results. This is not the time to think about the future and move forward.
Verden, currently near the front line of the Western Continent Magic Tower Alliance, made a pledge.
‘You only get one chance.’
The Society and Black Hour, as well as all the strategic resources that Verden could personally procure, have already been devoted to this plan.
He used up the vast amount of alchemical materials he had stored up like water, and immediately procured the remaining materials directly from all over the continent.
Additional installation of a central signaling device for long-distance communication of communication devices.
A number of space teleporters capable of intercontinental travel, lasting for several days, and leaving behind no trace.
All available means were used, including disposable or high-grade magic items that continuously consume magic stones.
An astronomical amount of money when converted into monetary value.
Although they were fully prepared, they did not rush to raid the entire Bohemian Tower.
Be radical, but not impatient.
‘The first thing to do is to check how the Magic Tower reacts.’
I don’t know who was sent to the Principality of Revant as the person in charge, but it must have been Baloch himself who carved and managed the call.
If an internal member of the Magic Tower dispatched to the duchy is killed, and the anomaly is reported by the captain connected to the life response.
The Bohemian Tower’s response will result in one of three outcomes.
For reference, cases where no reaction was observed were excluded.
While we were distracted by the Transcendental Conference, Lukerd was kidnapped, Raytheon and Omar Boldrak went missing, and the entire unofficial laboratory was destroyed along with Elder Hiram.
Even if we do not consider external intervention, it is highly likely that the status of internal personnel is constantly being monitored.
At least it is clear that the confirmation cycle has been reduced. The Bohemian Tower may be arrogant, but it is far from stupid.
So there are three expected responses.
First, Baloch Besias himself moves to the Principality of Riviant.
The chances are very low.
No, there isn’t.
Baloch is neither complacent nor sacrificial enough to throw himself into an unknown and unidentified danger.
‘However, if Baloch appears unexpectedly, you should immediately use to fight him off with all your might.’
Baloch accompanied only by the highest elders.
Verden brought all of his best power.
The odds are definitely high.
If this happens, the conclusion of an all-out war will be brought forward.
And secondly, an elder-level figure appears leading one of the three magic groups that Bohemirn’s Tower possesses, either the ‘Spectral Procession’ or the ‘Pancreas Barrage’, which are considered to be the actual force.
‘… … From my perspective, it’s annoying, but from Baloch’s perspective, it’s a reasonable choice.’
With just that, not only can you completely destroy any force, you can also deal with sudden variables.
Even if the problem is not easily solved, Baloch can intervene later by leading the remaining magicians.
In other words, the first and second responses meant that the Bohemian Tower Master was in control of the forces in real time.
Finally, the third is to send out reconnaissance to assess the situation.
If you notice that your call has been temporarily disconnected due to some kind of interference, you can respond appropriately.
If the scout is killed, they may choose to withdraw by confirming the appearance of an unexpected dangerous variable.
Minimize damage.
‘This could be said to be an expression of the psychological aspect of the difficulty in operating large-scale power right now or the fear of losing power.’
At first glance, this cautious response seems very reasonable.
But in reality, it’s just the opposite.
As I mentioned before, I have experience with the Black Hour led by Verden.
Even after being unexpectedly ambushed twice… … and even after a deeply hidden plan was discovered, maintaining a serious attitude is nothing but an extremely foolish strategy.
What’s the use of being cautious when your true intentions are already exposed?
But if the Bohemian Tower still reacts negatively… … .
‘This can be interpreted to mean that Baloch Besias is not in the Bohemian Tower.’
Absence of a master to make judgments.
Objectively, the second option is the most likely response for the Bohemian Tower.
However, Verden was personally inclined towards the third option.
‘The vision of a transcendent being who pursues an ideal throughout his life can become infinitely broad, or at other times, extremely narrow.’
If the magic tower chooses the third one, it will have the advantage in all future situations.
───Holy, it’s me.
Osgar’s voice came from the bracelet on his wrist.
Originally, communication between continents was impossible, but now it is possible because the Western and Eastern Continents are continuing to move through space.
It is a huge amount of maintenance, but it is a bleeding that must be endured.
“I’m listening.”
───I have discovered the identity of the person sent by Bohemian Tower to the Duchy of Riviant. He is in front of me now. Rawen Sidgar. It has been a long time since I have seen this friend.
Rawen Seedgar.
An elder of Itium who focuses on gravity and ice magic, and a discriminator with a deeply ingrained sense of superiority.
“What about the other numbers?”
───There are only six.
“I guess I don’t need any support.”
──It is the leader of the war, but you can’t help you.
Let’s call him a fucking pitchfork.
Tower with a good pronunciation.
When I first met the Sages of the Society at the Silver Citadel, I remembered the verification procedure that Osgar Pargen had conducted.
The Sage of Power laughed softly.
───I’ll organize it right away and contact you.
* * *
Count Rodenmeyer of the Duchy of Liviant values practicality and, as one of the country’s high-ranking nobles, has a unique greed.
He thought about it recently.
‘Life is really worth living.’
Thanks to the Count’s luck and efforts, the fame of the Rodenmeyer family grew, and with it, their actual power was strengthened.
In particular, wealth is growing at a rate never before experienced.
In the past, I achieved first place in the principality’s agency, and was granted the right to mine the silver mine and the magic stone tunnel by His Majesty the King… … I have already recovered all the investment money I poured into developing the mine and tunnel.
The net profit generated goes into your pocket.
If I were to mention other national projects, my mouth would hurt.
It was inevitable that rumors would spread about the public fact that among the counts of the duchy, the Rodenmaiers were among the most prominent.
A moonlit night.
In the center of the largest room in the mansion sat a large bed, Count Rodenmeyer, leaning against the wall, reading a newspaper.
The stone lantern on the table next to us illuminated the letters.
“… … No matter how successful I am, I still look insignificant compared to this.”
The word that decorates every corner of the newspaper──Asher, the deity of the Eastern Continent.
While being one of the real power holders, he divided up the infamous ownerless lands where blood never dries and corpses never decrease.
A young wizard who is arguably the most famous of the rising stars across all continents. Well, now he is a magician.
Starting with the Soul Tree conquest, I could see some signs of growth. However, I never dreamed that I would reach this level so quickly.
‘This must be real talent.’
The years that have passed pass by.
It seems like only yesterday that Asher was working in the Duchy of Gray, taking on and solving various requests through Pale… … .
Should we consider it a miracle that we met him in a small principality?
‘I should send a gift when I get the chance.’
Since he seemed to prefer tea, I’ll have to get him something really expensive. Whatever it is, it’s not right to neglect a friendship.
Click.
I folded the newspaper neatly and placed it on the table, then turned off the night light. I lay down on the bed, feeling my eyes gradually getting used to the darkness.
It was at that time that I was trying to fall asleep.
“… … !”
A strange ominous feeling. Count Rodenmeyer instinctively picked up the magic stone lantern and threw it.
Clang!
The lights flickered with a sound like glass breaking. The broken stone lantern illuminated the room a few times before falling silent.
There is no one in front.
Then back.
I immediately got out of bed and stood with my back to the wall.
A human figure was faintly discernible in the pitch-black darkness.
‘… … What is it? I’m clearly facing it, but I can’t sense anything.’
However, it is clear that he is an uninvited guest with very impure intentions.
There is a high possibility that he is an assassin.
Conversation is unnecessary.
Sling.
He strengthened his body and quickly pulled out the decorative sword hanging on the wall.
The Count of Rodenmeyer is renowned for his swordsmanship, and if you were to rank the swordsmen of the duchy, the Count would be ranked 8th.
Swish───Quazik!
The sword strike, filled with fierce sword energy, sliced through the furniture. The assassin, who had stepped back from the trajectory, disappeared from awareness.
‘He’s good at hiding his presence.’
At that moment Count Rodenmeyer threw himself toward the window.
There’s no reason to go out of your way to fight an assassin alone.
We must gather the knights. That is the true power of the nobles. The vassals must have already heard the commotion and noticed the change.
but.
Kuung!
“?!”
Count Rodenmeyer, who failed to break the window and ended up falling out instead. The ripples of the swaying magic circle reflected in his eyes and then disappeared.
“… … You sealed the room?”
When on earth?
Now that I look at it, I can’t hear any sound from outside. That means there’s a good chance that the commotion inside won’t leak out either.
“Oh my, big?!”
The sword energy that was spinning horizontally and sharply did not reach the guy.
In an instant, the assassin who had caught up to the count wrapped his neck like a snake. Boom! The two men fell backwards and rolled roughly on the floor.
I barely managed to twist my wrist to grab the sword in reverse and stab it away, but the assassin’s leg was firmly trapped at my elbow joint.
‘I can’t move… …!’
A joint that cannot be escaped.
I was overwhelmed.
The price of being taken by surprise without even the bare minimum of equipment was fatal. Above all, the bastard’s skills were far beyond average.
Who on earth hired such an assassin, where and why?
“Ugh, ugh.”
I was suffocated by the pressure put on me by the prayer.
My vision started to blur and I began to lose focus.
The brainwashing experiment of the Bohemian Tower, which judged that it had succeeded in subduing its target, was carried out by Grimnax’s high-ranking assassin, who wrapped his left arm around the Count’s neck and held it down, allowing his right arm to move freely.
He put on a strange glove and placed five fingers on the Count’s heart.
Hooooooooo.
The magical power stored in the glove was consumed and a signal was transmitted to the other side.
Immediately after, my right hand started moving on its own.
The newly improved forced magic circle, Callion.
The call to action, written by Rawen Seedgar, is implemented by riding an assassin.
Body and head.
With two engravings, Count Rodenmeyer’s brainwashing was over. It was an easy task for an assassin who specialized in infiltration.
Phew… … .
But then suddenly the hand stopped. Likewise, the flow of magic power also stopped.
After a few seconds, the magic circle began to disperse.
“… … ?”
The assassin raised his finger several times and placed it directly in the center of the count’s chest, but there was still no response. Soon, the magic circle completely disappeared.
His movements became stiff for a moment when he was ordered to do so.
At the same time, the pressure is relaxed.
Phaaaak!
Count Rodenmeyer’s fist extended behind his shoulder and struck the assassin squarely in the face.
* * *
It is absolutely impossible for the state brainwashing plan to become known to the outside world.
Because everyone who knew the information was under strict control, and there was no information that could be made known to the outside world.
The only evidence that can be considered is the ancient artifact that records the continent, [Marterias].
It is kept in the deepest part of the Transcendent’s personal study, accessible only with the permission of the Master of the Bohemian Tower.
Interference from others was completely unimaginable and unthinkable.
For that reason, Rawen Seedgar expressed his embarrassment without even forgetting his dignity.
“I can’t help but be able to take the lead in the war.”
Among the crowd of people talking about bracelets right in front of me… … the person standing at the very front was so unexpected.
“I’ll organize it right away and contact you.”
Osgar turned off his communication device and faced Rawen.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, but you don’t look happy at all, Rawen Seedgar. Not even here.”
I kind of said hello.
Rawen, who had been dumbfounded and unable to respond right away, finally regained his senses and opened his mouth with trembling eyes.
“Os, Osgar, Osgar Pargan? You… … Why on earth are you here… …?”
“I guess you’re so shocked that you can’t even speak properly. I understand. I came to a place where no one should know.”
“Just answer the questions I ask you!”
Despite Rawen’s urging, Osgar only said what he had to say.
“… … I used to think that the Bohemian Tower had a somewhat radical side, but I still thought it was within the normal range. I was wrong. They are a group that uses magic circles to force their opponents’ actions and minds, and they set up unofficial laboratories outside the tower where they sacrifice living humans.
“… … !!!”
“I’m already sick of the atrocities of the Magic Tower. You guys have gone particularly far beyond the line. I’m afraid that other Magic Towers might be hiding such ugly secrets like the Bohemian Magic Tower.”
Osgar’s eyes softened.
“So how can we not oppose the current magic tower system?”
After hearing the series of sentences, Rawen felt as if something in his complicated head was being resolved.
Informal laboratory.
An ideology that rejects the rooftops.
Each set intersects with the other, creating an intersection, whether it is possible or not, or just a guess.
“You, a former War Lord of the Empire… …were you a member of the Society, an anti-Magic Tower faction? And the Society joined hands with Black Hour… …?”
“Wow, you came to such a conclusion with just a few words. Even if you just threw it out there, you’re a smart person. It would be a great loss for the magical community to lose such a talented person. But you brought this all on yourself.”
Osgar pulled the arm holding the staff. At the same time, the Society’s elite magicians guarding him activated their magic circuits.
“Then why don’t you use that head of yours more beneficially?”
The calculation has already been completed.
Bam.
The tension that had been pulled taut suddenly snapped.
“이 개새끼야.”
6th tier synthetic magic.
A blast of gravity-infused flame was released from the staff. The forest in front collapsed with a loud noise.
