Welcome to the Magic Tower - Welcome to the Magic Tower chapter 67
67 – Outside the Window
The red hair and the sleeves of the oversized hospital gown swayed in the wind from the fan.
Even with that pleasant wind, her face, covered with a large gauze, did not straighten.
She was just busy moving her hands.
Crash square, the quill writes letters one by one on the parchment.
Smooth strokes as usual.
However, it moves at the same speed as a slug.
There is a difference between holding a pen and writing by hand, but that is not the only reason.
In addition, it was not prudent because the parchment had been saved for a long time, nor was it hard to follow the procedure to write a sentence that was not paid for.
Standing—.
My wrist, which was so bony that I thought it might break, stopped moving.
I grabbed the pen as hard as I could break it and trembled.
And then, I erased all the letters I had engraved on the parchment.
So the red-haired woman went back to the beginning and looked at the parchment full of blanks like her new one.
It wasn’t sudden.
After writing a letter all day, if she felt any discomfort in her heart, she would immediately erase it all and rewrite it.
Although she is not an artist, she felt the pain of creation, so to speak, very keenly.
It’s just a matter of writing down your thoughts and feelings in a letter.
I have often taken on contracts or difficult tasks that are difficult to type, but this was the first time.
There were many things I wanted to say. It was just that I was at a loss as to how to express the thoughts in my head. It was a time of agony.
“…… Ah.”
After thinking for a long time, the woman suddenly came up with a sentence.
While she is calm about her sincerity, she is in a hurry to capture it.
She hurriedly took hold of her quill and wrote down, letter by letter, before her emotions cooled down.
Crunch square—. The letters were grouped together to form sentences.
This is Irene…….
The red-haired woman let out all the misery in her heart.
She put it on faded parchment.
She wrote her resignation letter with all her might, thinking that she would be able to escape only if she went beyond her shame and fully expressed her desire to die.
It was a nuisance to run without a takeover, but…….
Well, what can I do?
She was defeated in Makgora, and as long as she didn’t die, the only option given to her was to commit suicide or run away from this damn place…….

“…… It’s embarrassing to think about it again.”
I was embarrassed at the same time.
Irene laughed dejectedly, then suddenly turned her head and looked out the window at her.
However, the clear sky came into view beyond the transparent glass window.
It was the opposite of her complicated and gloomy mind, and it was clearly shining.
Death and resignation.
At that crossroads, the woman looked at him with her blank face, then suddenly distorted her face and threw her letter out the window.
Sleep-. The window opened without warning or sound, and the letter of resignation calmly left the hospital room and eventually reached the sky.
It became a paper airplane.
Riding the wind, she flew.
She met her friends and formed her group. She filled the changcheon (蒼天).
They are all letters from different places, and at the same time announcing an emergency──.
It was an urgent report.

It takes a long time to become proficient in any field.
Even considering the difference in talent, there is a minimum amount of sweat that must be shed for him.
Even if it is magic that has been handed down by Heaven’s will.
Pepe Rorocher, a member of the Mage Tower Inspection Department, had never doubted him.
However, as he read the report that came in as his spy, he felt that his firm convictions were shaken.
“That’s not fair.”
Pepe twisted the corner of his mouth and muttered. He shook his head with detergent, still unsettled. Unconvinced, he started reading the papers again from the beginning.
…… Even if there is a kind of procedure, it cannot be applied to everything.
However, since most of them can be applied, ‘procedure’ takes its place as a norm.
When a new mage joins the Mage Tower, they usually take on chores for a month.
It’s not like going downhill.
It is a process of getting hitched here and there in the office and getting a sense of the world you have never known before.
And, when you feel like you’re getting used to it, start running around the dungeon with the shooter. Gradually bring out the magical power that was dormant in one’s bosom. It is the season of evolution.
That’s about half a year.
Except for extremely rare cases where the rank rises in the first event, most wizards stay at the green rank for about half a year.
But this guy is——.
Pepe was arrogant as he felt the sudden rise of anger.
“Okay, well, it could be that far.”
Whether it’s luck or skill, a miracle can happen once in a while.
However, what I can’t understand at all is from the next part.
Pepe turned his page with a smile like a rotten egg.
──Trial of the Sage Strategy Report──
The Merchant and the Witch. Just the two of us cleared the dungeon like this.
The former is a tool for drawing things, and the latter is a job group specializing in auxiliary magic and alchemy.
In the meantime, the merchant was a newcomer among newcomers who had awakened a while ago and rose in rank.
“…… It doesn’t sound like words, really.”
In addition, it is said that the rankings rose as the two succeeded in attacking.
Even though it wasn’t an awakening dungeon.
Even the merchant was a yellow rank until recently… , No, it was green.
By the way, you’ve just cleared one dungeon, and you’re ranked high?
“…… Profit, what the hell! On that! How can you make sense!!!”
The inspector stomps with a red-hot face! Hit the desk
I have been staying as an inspector for ten years at the rank of red.
But that guy almost caught up with him in three months.
That such an unfair thing exists in the world?!
Boom! Bang! Bang!
He hit the desk in succession.
A brilliant idea suddenly passed through Pepe’s mind, which had been engulfed in her feelings of inferiority and anger for a long time.
“…… Uh, wait, yeah, that’s nonsense. Yes, yes this is abnormal There must be some trick.”
Pepe muttered blankly and clenched his fist as he was about to strike it down. She continued her thoughts with a subtle twitching of the corners of her mouth.
It is clear that there was an error in the report from the time she entered the Mage Tower.
Or is it that the person named ‘Lee Jin-woo’, who has risen to the top in an instant, is a lie?
Then, why did he infiltrate the Mage Tower under a false identity, even risking it? For what reason?
In time, Pepe was convinced.
“It’s a spy.”
It is unknown whether it is Musingung or a guild. However, it is certain that the spy has infiltrated the situation.
The Inspector General began to act with incomprehensible confidence.
To be precise, it was intended to disguise the appearance of an inspector who believed and acted like that.
‘The opponent is showing promising results, but in the end, he is a rookie with no personal connections or skills! I just need to push through with dignity!’
A downhill named Gwanrok (貫祿).
At this moment, Inspector Pepe, who was only on the side of jealousy, made a plan to send the opponent to the frontlines, accusing him of being a spy before he reached the center of the Mage Tower.
─Your loyalty! Make it visible with your body and with your blood!
Unlike himself, who can touch the upper line even slightly, he will have nothing!
The inspector who usually takes on the hard work, but has more authority than anyone else.
If the slightest suspicious circumstances are discovered, he will be immediately demoted to the good inspector’s accusation.
Pepe smiled in repentance.
So the inspector decided to conduct an investigation right away.
First of all, witches.
The order was decided with the idea of tasting the appetizer before the main dish.
‘I’ll cut off the limbs of her best friend.’
Pepe sat in the interrogation room plotting what to do next.
Then, she saw a silhouette of someone sitting in front of her.
He’s right, he straightened his posture with an inwardly sinister smile.
“…… Hey, you-?”
And then, the inspector made eye contact with the cold-faced witch.
Gulp, I inadvertently swallowed my saliva.
Pepe felt the rough heartbeat and the heat of his face as if he was under the spell of ‘enchantment’.
Oh my God! Her radiant blonde hair, bright red eyes, and skin like white jade are so attractive! It was like!
The veteran inspector faced an unexpected situation from the beginning of the interrogation.
At some point, Pepe came to his senses, startled by the thumping, pounding heart.
He even shut his eyes tight, trying to keep even the faintest composure.
‘…… What is he doing?’
Then, Shin Hye-young glared at the inspector with her eyebrows furrowed.
I called him early in the morning and I couldn’t understand what the hell he was doing.
The uncomfortable silence continued for about ten minutes.
…… OK, I think I’m feeling a little better now.
Having regained some composure, Pepe opened her eyes and exclaimed.
“Now! If you are truly innocent, look me in the eyes!”
“… ….”
“…… sh*t! What could be more beautiful eyes than this ruby! Yes you are innocent! So get out!”
“…… ?”
“Please get out!”
Pepe slammed her head into her desk and shouted urgently, and the witch tilted her head at the sudden celebration.
No, what the heck, this crazy carving.
She glanced sideways at the inspector and then walked out of her interrogation room.
“… ….”
The inspector, left alone in the interrogation room, bit his lip.
What kind of insolence was this as a veteran inspector?
At the same time he chewed on her witch figure.
Although it was only a fleeting moment, what she had just encountered was definitely ‘love’.
“…… It was beautiful.”
Pepe closed her eyes and remembered her witch. I also remembered her status window, which I saw through her unique ability ‘Truth Eye’.

…… A job called ‘sage’ and a characteristic presumed to be related to it.
Magic power and wisdom that have reached the level of mastery beyond the beginning of the advanced level.
Other stats rose quite a bit as if they were trying to follow him.
This is an unbelievable amount of growth, no matter how successful the dungeon was.

Irregular indeed!
But Pepe, soaked in love, decided to let it go.
She didn’t want to get her into her predicament that made her heart pound even for a moment.
She didn’t really doubt the existence of the spy in the first place, so it was okay.
“But you are different!”
Quang! Pepe opened her eyes brightly and slammed her desk.
The desk created with alchemy was hit countless times, but she didn’t budge.
It was the same for the ninja in front of the inspector.
The eyes of the two men met.
* * *
The sky was high and blue.
The wind was moderately cool. It was calm.
The sun was warm, but not hot. Wasn’t offended
Pure white clouds floated across the sky. Don’t know people’s hearts, carefree.
“… ….”
Paradise has turned into a cage, and the woman has been trying to escape it.
She did everything she could to get out, if not break it.
As a result, we finally got results.
Xiaofang gazed at the sky outside the window sadly, but in the end he smiled bitterly. She slowly turned her head. Her eyes narrowed slightly and she leaned against the desk.
The orb emitted green light.
Xiaofang put it in his eyes and thought.
The time has come.
