Welcome to the Magic Tower - Welcome to the Magic Tower chapter 49
49 – That’s All I Wanted
Today I lost my will.
To be precise, I lost the will to live.
I wondered if it was necessary to live diligently in the world.
“Why did the world give me such an ordeal… ….”
With sad eyes, I looked at the senior ninja leading the comrades from the front of the ranks.
“We, the Resistance, stand up against the Dog and Pig Cult… ….”
A ninja senior with a pretty bright smile.
Black coveralls and masks. Shuriken hung near the thigh.
Her appearance is perfect, but she wasn’t a ninja that only looked good.
‘…… It was crazy.’
I remembered her agile movements that she showed me earlier. A beautiful technique that you will never be able to copy yourself. There must have been countless trials or training to reach that level.
A true ninja role model.
Yeah, I tried to make him an eternal ninja role model. It was.
I looked at the ninja-senpai with sorrowful eyes.
That woman’s name is Matilda.
She’s perfect even her name.
But, she’s not really a ninja…….
—He was a wizard.
It’s true that it’s a sensible state, but I felt the magical power that assisted that movement.
A ninja’s technique? Energy separate from mana?
There was nothing like that, and it was completely the same as a magician’s magic operation.
It was only too late to realize that I was blinded by the momentary excitement.
Yes, she was a wizard.
Not a ninja.
“…… Sniff.”
Tears covered my eyes.
In the end, I failed to break free from the magic spell today as well.
A losing streak indeed!
Why am I the team leader of the Xiaofang family? Can’t even become a runaway ninja!
‘…… You can enjoy it! Can’t you just enjoy two hours!’
Senior Ninja… ,
No, in fact, Matilda told me that she was just a wizard.
Abandon the name from before.
Now that you have joined the Resistance, you must be reborn as a new being from today.
So I even guessed the stage name ‘Leon’… ….
It was all useless.
The young man who burned the soul of a ninja died.
From now on, there will only be cool-headed wizards who move to clear dungeons.
‘I don’t like wizards… ….’
…… Yeah, wouldn’t it be better to be a cool and smart alchemist than a ninja?
Let’s make a Philosopher’s Stone.
I will somehow open the door to the truth and get my brother’s body back…… !
“Damn it.”
While I was feeling the sage time, I reached the field of consciousness before I knew it.
‘…… Should I call this a ceremonial hall?’
I wondered how long I would have to dig deep into the sewer, but I finally got to the end.
From noble mtl dot com
We stood in front of a cliff.
And then, under that far-off cliff, I saw a spring emitting blue light.
[ ‘Geumhwashingong’ detects a maddeningly intense magical response. ]
I felt a stronger energy than Meteor I had seen before, perhaps similar to Yuhanna when she glared at me.
It must be like a heavenly treasure for a wizard.
I had a hunch that it would be very useful as an elixir or an alchemy ingredient.
However, perhaps it was just as important to the resistance as before, unlike before, wizards dressed in black who looked like ninjas were deployed.
I looked at them and then looked down at the fountain.
And then I thought.
‘…… Is that clean?’
To be honest, I was worried about hygiene. It’s probably in the basement.
“Now, it’s time to jump into the Fountain of the Sage in order.”
Matilda explained the weight of the ordeal we had to shoulder with a solemn expression.
If you fall into that sage’s spring, there might be people whose bodies melt due to a magical rejection reaction.
Even if you get recognized by Sam, the process will be very painful.
Still, I will take responsibility for your family. You’re going to take responsibility for your livelihood!
Now, burn your hatred instead!
Melt away the pain of having to watch the seed money evaporated by your cataclysm!
Become a legendary wizard and show the power of ants to the Coin cults!
“Uryaaa!!!”
At this moment, whether you have a grim face or not a single hair on your head, whether you are a wizard or a ninja gun, you will be united in your hatred for coins.
Youth is really bubbling up.
As usual, I would have joined.
“Let’s erase that damn coin from the world!!!”
“I would give my life for him!!!”
“Ooooo!!!”
“… ….”
However, unlike those friends, as a person who has benefited from coins more than anyone else in the world, it was a bit conscientious to match the rhythm.
[ ‘Geumhwa God’ wants magic. ]
Besides…….
Thought carefully, I raised my hand. I smiled at the senior ninja who was looking at me warmly and shouted in a loud voice.
“Ah! Matilda! For the eternal glory of the Resistance who will annihilate Coin Bridge! Please give me the first chance to jump!”
“Oh! Leon! Your qualifications are not enough! Ruler! Come on, jump down!”
That’s how I ended up standing in front of a cliff.
From behind, I hear the voices of my classmates telling me to be courageous and cheer up.
‘I’m sure he won’t die by crashing his head into the water.’
I’m already a wizard, so the magic rejection reaction won’t happen either.
They say they catch people, but…….
I put my feet forward, believing in the artifacts that I had spattered on with money and the supernatural ability of the Goldsmith.
My body leans.
Shuuwook─. Falls off rapidly
Bungee jumping without safety harness.
I looked at the blue surface of the water in front of me.
Plop-!
I fell into the Fountain of the Sage.
──Korororok.
A feeling of floating as if the whole body is floating.
The temperature of the water was neither cold nor lukewarm nor hot.
I wonder if it’s just refreshing. I felt a unique sense of magical power permeating me.
T-ring—!
[ ‘Geumhwa God’ senses enormous magic power. ]

[ Magic power increases by ‘1’… …. ]
[ ─────It rises to 2 stars. ]

What fills my entire body right now is the feeling of fullness of magical power.
And arrogance.
Irene can be killed enough,
Confidence in being able to lightly copy the movements of the ninja seniors.
No, I felt confident.
──Toddlers alone in heaven and earth (天上天下唯我獨尊).
“Only I am the ninja of this world.”
Shararararararallala——! As if my words were correct, the green Sage’s Fountain suddenly glowed with a brilliant golden light.
The splendor of the world as if praising me. Enjoying it, he raised both hands.
A flash of light—. I felt like killing myself, so I quickly pulled out my sword from my subspace pocket.
In an instant, he cut through dozens of shurikens flying from all directions.
I turned my attention to the rogues who interrupted the catharsis of the tide.
“…… That brilliance is definitely not something a paladin can emit.”
Not even ants.
At some point, one of the senior ninjas surrounding me muttered in a voice filled with fear.
And…… ,
“…… I was counting on you.”
She looked at me with sad eyes and felt a little guilt as she faced Matilda as she pulled out her shuriken.
“…… Ninnin.”
I slipped her head away from her. She closed her eyes tightly.
Anyway, it was an imminent situation where each other aimed their swords at each other.
A truly Forbes-selected soybean flour ninja must meet at least once in his life.
I closed my eyes and for a moment savored my life as a ninja Leon, not as a wizard.
──It was short, but enjoyable.
So, as a thank you to him, I met her face properly and smiled as brightly as she could.
“Ninja or Escape.”
I held the transition stone in my hand.
“That was all I wanted.”

Activated.
[ Transitions to a previously designated location. ]
“And today, that dream came true.”
──I opened my eyes.
And then, I looked around.
I had arrived at the inn room where Shin Hye-young and I were spending our travels.
I can’t see the ninjas that surrounded me from all sides, neither the fountain of the wise, nor Matilda.
I closed my eyes again, smiled softly and muttered to myself.
──Goodbye, Matilda.
Thank you.
Thanks to you, I was able to achieve my dream.
At least two of them.
Yes,
Today I…… ,
“Nin-nin.”
I became the world’s only escaped ninja.
There is no limit.
