Welcome to the Magic Tower - Welcome to the Magic Tower chapter 86

86 – Drifting

At the dawn streaming in through the window, the blonde-haired witch rubbed her eyes and woke up.

Ugh, is it morning?

In response to a tingling sensation that I could never come to like, I crouched down and relaxed her body all at once.

“…… Ah.”

It’s a goddamn morning.

The day I was most looking forward to and feared these days has arrived.

Realizing that fact, Shin Hye-young shook off her sleep and immediately started preparing to welcome her guests.

She did, but she didn’t have anything grandiose.

She put on her pre-ironed activewear and only circulated it through her body once stably so that her magical power would not be shaken.

Because I didn’t intend to fight anyone yet.

“Good morning!”

“Yes, hello.”

Shin Hye-young smiled shyly at Marcus, the expedition leader she met in her lobby, and walked away slowly. She might have gotten used to her face from what she’d seen in the last few weeks, but she wasn’t at all like that.

Now I live like a refugee, but before that, I was a very high boss.

In a typical company, it felt similar to meeting a director at the managerial level.

I’ve seen it a few times, but I wonder if there is an absolute difference in status in modern times that I can never feel familiar with.

It was not easy for her to be comfortable with her own personnel decision maker.

“Hey, it’s already been a month. Even if this sh*t turns out, time goes by so fast?”

“…… Yes, it is.”

“I thought my life up until now was quite eventful, but these days the level is different? Hyeyoung, don’t you think so too?”

“…… Yes, me too.”

Shin Hye-young smiled capitalistically and shook her head.

Her answer seemed half-determined, but she agreed to a certain extent.

“So what are you going to do? Do you want to move on?”

However, such a sensitive question was difficult to answer.

The witch slightly turned her head and looked at Marcus’ expression.

He was smiling, as always, and asking questions at the same time.

Are you going to throw everything away and run away?

Are you a traitor?

“… ….”

Shin Hye-young didn’t answer.

──Two hours until the start of the auction (bidding).

Kki-look-ki-look-!

I heard the sound of a seagull.

I could see the blue sky, and I could feel the soft sand on my back.

Charreuk, charreuk, with the sound of the calmly lapping waves and the feeling of getting my ankles wet, I realized I was washed up on the shore somewhere.

It’s a reasonable, natural idea, but it seemed like I hadn’t seen it in a long time.

“… ….”

My mind was clear.

However, seeing that he couldn’t let go of his previous memories, he seemed to have had a very long dream.

I still can’t tell if what I’ve been experiencing is real or a dream, and seeing that my head is fuzzy, I must have been very absorbed.

“…… f*ck.”

Staggering, I got up and stepped on the sandy floor. I felt disgust and resentment for various pitiful things inside me, but I held on to my senses and looked around.

I saw an endless horizon from the front, a long coastline and bizarre cliffs from the side, and looking back, I saw palm trees and a tropical rain forest. Coconut fruit hanging from tree branches like seeds.

“…… I never imagined I’d see it in the country of origin.”

I didn’t even expect it.

After looking around a few more times for no reason, I lowered my head and let out a long sigh.

I don’t know because I don’t remember the last time, but it seems that I fell on an uninhabited island.

*

Nothing I needed to take with me fell out around me.

There was no immortal ninja sword, no fire gauntlet, and I remember buying a shield, but I couldn’t even see that.

For some reason, the inventory—the subspace didn’t even open, and I didn’t have any property except for the clothes that wrapped around my body.

It is safe to say that he became broke.

If I hadn’t felt the mana and qi of my heart, wouldn’t it be that all my memories up until now were just dreams?

Maybe it was oxidized as it was in the fiercely pouring sunlight.

I must have doubted it for a long time.

And since it was not a dream but a clear reality, I had to find a way to live somehow.

What I think I need right now is information about the weapons I can use and the surroundings.

First of all, I picked the tallest palm tree on the beach and climbed the stem.

I climbed to the top, at a fairly high altitude, and once again took a look at the surrounding scenery.

“Well, that’s wrong.”

I could see nothing but trees in front of me, and nothing but the sea behind me.

Should I cut off the branches and rush into the forest?

…… Hmmm, not a very appealing option.

If this place were an ordinary uninhabited island, that would be enough, but I don’t think that’s the case again.

──Keee

I frowned at the feral cry that just shattered my eardrum.

Front A villager living somewhere in the forest seemed to be suffering from great hysteria.

Or, because it was so huge, I only sighed, but I could hear it this way.

Maybe it’s both.

Well, even if it wasn’t the cry of a cretaceous dinosaur, the magic waves resounding indiscriminately all over the island indicated that this was not an ordinary uninhabited island.

Unbeknownst to me, I fell into a dungeon.

Falled into another world.

Or it could be that the uninhabited island was unimaginably spartan from the beginning.

All the people who drifted have died, so the original uninhabited island is such a harsh world. It seems that

Can no longer be reported.

I don’t really want to face any of the situations, but I think it’s better to have the worst in mind than to walk around innocently.

As I continued to think, I suddenly saw an open coconut right next to me.

That’s right, I’ve never had this before.

This was my first encounter with the real thing, except for the one in the can of pineapple.

I gladly picked him up and put it in my mouth. Wag-jak, wag-jak chewed to soothe my troubled mind.

“…… Ugh, this isn’t something you eat raw.”

And I belatedly realized that I didn’t have to chew the peel.

It was the moment when I realized that apart from my clear mind, my level of intelligence was still the same.

‘No, this might be surprisingly delicious?’

It was also a meaningful time to discover new tastes.

After eating all the coconuts, I finally decided on a course to follow. I got down from the palm tree and turned to the side.

Yes, I wasn’t going anywhere in the woods.

The high and steep cliff on the left…… Rather, he is truly tall enough to be called a stone mountain.

It was a very high place, so it was difficult to see, but it was an area where many creatures thought to be human were believed to exist.

I wonder if I’m the only one who doesn’t know, the climb was also a rough terrain with only the cliff in front of my eyes.

‘Should I just go to the forest?’

Still, wouldn’t it be a bad idea to try to communicate with people who can understand what they are saying, rather than running into a creature that you don’t know whether it’s a dinosaur or not?

Of course, the confrontation might be worse, but I thought it would be a much better way than wandering in the woods for a long time.

“Okay, Shiva, let’s try.”

So I started rock climbing with my bare hands.

***

The kingdom of Eusta on the Celebria continent. The western region is famous for the large stone mountains and dwarves living in villages on their summits.

A legendary clan blessed by Vulcanus, the incarnation of fire and blacksmiths.

There were uninvited guests every year who came to see such a rare species, and the Dwarves, like those who were exceptional at making something, took various countermeasures as a defense against it.

Starting with a gateway that cannot be crossed without their permission, a trap like a rolling stone. Bison monsters that graze on the roadsides were a small part of them.

Those who have reached the level of transcendence will not be able to stop it, but at least it will pass the time.

The Dwarves of Eusta Kingdom were proud of that fact.

With the thought that no one would dare to touch them.

If the sword master or the archmage comes, we can’t help it, but we’re the ones who can calm them down.

It was clear that the world’s best weapons made by them would be of great help to the war effort.

In addition, the bodies of the dwarves matched very well with warriors.

When the two were combined, a strength that did not yield at all compared to other battle races was completed.

The Dwarves, who gained confidence in that fact again, lived a little loosely.

They didn’t clumsy with the basic city boundaries, but they were stubborn and didn’t consider unexpected possibilities at all.

Yes, they were unexpected.

I couldn’t even imagine that the customer would leave the road unharmed and come up through the cliff, even though it wasn’t even during the war.

In fact, the Vulcan Mountain they live in is so rugged that even the prudent would not consider climbing the cliff at all.

However, there was a man with iron-blooded will and body who managed to climb that zone.

Teouk… ,

At last we reached the top of the mountain.
