57. The path chosen by
the mage tower does not take in outsiders.
So usually you can’t enter without a permit.
“But as long as you have a license, you will be treated equally with the wizards you belong to.
In the Mage Tower, you can listen to magic lectures, browse the materials in the Mage Tower Library, or buy magic-related items.
“Among the items sold at the Mage Tower, there are many items that can help healers.”
Healers are, roughly speaking, priests + wizards. Although not a formal wizard, you can obtain useful knowledge and items by visiting the Mage Tower.
“Since you are also a healer, you must have good staff. You’ll also need a cape...”
“Thanks for your concern.”
Of course, a normal healer staff and cloak wouldn’t be necessary for a scum with no divine power or magical power.
‘Among the items sold at the Mage Tower, there are many useful things for wild healers.’
A variety of medicinal herbs grown using magic. Data books such as monster encyclopedias and potion recipes. Other than that, there are tools that can help with the wild healer’s work.
‘I’ll have to find something that’s hard to find near Hind Village.’
Kang Seung-hyun is a wild healer who can’t use heals, but uses his talents instead. In order to utilize his talent, he must acquire various knowledge and materials.
‘Let’s get everything we can find.’
This is an opportunity not to be missed. I don’t know when I’ll be able to get the Mage Tower permit again.
“The duration of the Mage Tower Permit issued is three days. It would be difficult to visit the entire Mage Tower in three days...”
Professor Tansel drew a simple map on a piece of paper.
“I’ve marked the places I recommend to you. This store here will give you a discount if you mention my name...”
“Thank you.”
“I have to say hello. If you have the conditions, I recommend watching the magic parade, and the wild strawberry juice at the teahouse is...”
Professor Tansel drew a map with an excited face. The map of the magic tower gradually turned into a tourist information booklet.
‘It’s not because I’m thankful, but maybe I just wanted to recommend a tourist destination.’
Anyway, Kang Seung-hyeon obtained the Mage Tower permit and the map of the Mage Tower.
“I’ll just go.”
“...for a moment.”
I was just about to open the door. Professor Tansel called Kang Seung-hyun to see if he had something to say.
“It was just after using the Trinity magic circle. A normal wizard would have exhausted all his magic.”
“...”
“That’s why I thought I couldn’t feel the magic, but even now after a while, I can hardly feel the magic.”
Very skilled wizards can sense the magical powers of others to some extent.
“That means the magical power it possesses is very low.”
Professor Tansel, who was silent for a moment, opened his mouth. He noticed that his magic power was low, but he didn’t seem to know that his magic power was 0.
“You are not an ordinary healer. Should I say that I am not an ordinary person?”
‘Did you notice that I am a dimension mover?’
The Mage Tower also wants to know the secret of the dimension mover’s power. Experiments and research are the mage’s specialties.
“Are you going to catch it and use it as a test subject?”
If you’re going to do something like that, I have an idea here too.
“Don’t get me wrong. It just reminded me of an old friend.”
Professor Tansel said with a smile.
“I’m not the same as you... but I felt like a friend.”
Now, the news has been cut off, so it is said that it is unknown.
‘Because there are many dimension movers besides me who have been brought in.’
– “Then thank you.”
Kang Seung-hyun left Professor Tansel’s room. Looking at the scenery outside the window, I could see that it was early morning.
‘Kim Ho-jeong must be sleeping. Let’s talk about the Mage Tower tomorrow.’
It was time to head up the stairs to go back to the room.
“Ah, Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”
“What are you doing not sleeping until this time?”
Tina was standing by the window at the end of the hallway.
“It’s been a while since I’ve come to the Mage Tower, so I’m used to it and I’m glad...”
“As expected, Tina also belonged to the Mage Tower.”
“yes. It’s not our magic tower, but it’s a place we miss.”
“Most of the guys who gave up learning magic belong to the Mage Tower.”
Wizards who enter the Mage Tower meet people with more talent than themselves in exchange for gaining a lot of knowledge.
‘Because of that, there are many people who leave the Mage Tower because they are shocked to see people who are better than themselves.’
So it may seem surprising, but independent wizards rarely give up magic.
‘But Tina-san seems to have another reason.’
Everyone said nothing, as if thinking deeply about something.
“I will return to the Magic Tower.”
The first person to speak was Shuire.
“I came out of the Mage Tower thinking I was the best, but there was someone greater than me.”
Shuire looked at Kang Seung-hyun.
A being that has activated the Trinity magic circle, but has not exhausted its magical energy. Compared to him, he was a novice himself.
“I told the professor and I was beaten a few times, but... he accepted it. So I guess I’m here.”
“I... Actually... I also... decided to return to the church...”
Priest Sahita raised his hand, noticing.
“I... want to put an end to this... so I think I’ll have to leave the party...”
The person in charge, Isle, is dead, but the victims remain. Sahita intends to go back to the church and make graves for them and find family members and acquaintances.
“I will also go with Priest Sahita. I need to practice divine power.”
Lakramati also realized through this adventure. that he is far from lacking.
“Like Inquisitor Kang Seung-hyun... to be strong!”
And they are still mistaking Kang Seung-hyeon for the Heretic Questioner. It was because the sight of the black magician’s alter ego being erased in an instant was a big shock to him.
“That’s why I’m leaving the party too.”
“Actually me too. I intend to return to my hometown.”
Finally, Ergan also opened his mouth.
“It seems you are tired of being an adventurer. I was thinking about whether I should break up the party...”
It seems that being betrayed by Ail was a big shock. Of course, it’s common among adventurers.
“Everybody had the same idea.”
“And the best ending.”
The party is not disbanded because someone is killed or injured, but because the party has its own goal. There is no better ending to an adventurer’s party than this.
– “Everyone has left.”
Shuire returned to the mage tower and the others left the mage tower. The only ones left at the entrance of the magic tower were Tina, Kang Seung-hyeon, and Kim Ho-jung.
“How are we? Shall we depart for Hind Village?”
“I got the Mage Tower permit from Professor Tansel.”
Seunghyun Kang showed the license and said.
“What about Tina?”
“If you have nothing to do, come with us.”
“I...”
Tina seems to have made up her mind too. what to do in the future.
“I want to become a magic swordsman.”
Those who use swordsmanship while reinforcing their lacking skills with magic.
“Some people ridicule me for saying it’s not my job, but I still want to be.”
I want to use my magical talent to learn my favorite swordsmanship. That was Tina’s choice.
“I thought so.”
Normal wizards didn’t fit their aptitude and wasted time becoming a swordsman. Then, the only remaining option is the magic swordsman.
“If you are Tina, you will be able to do well.”
“The problem is that I don’t know anything about magic swordsmen... I should go to the south, which is famous for swordsmanship...”
“I don’t know too well.”
Seunghyun Kang pulled out a letter.
The letter is written in Korean, so Tina cannot read it. However, you will be able to read the name ‘Choi Yi-han’ on the cover.
“North of Azul Continent. Go to Rzinperoi Village.”
“If it’s Le Zinperro... A very cold place even in the northern regions?”
“Because there is one of the strongest... magic swordsmen I know.”
If you go to him and name Kang Seung-hyeon, you will be able to learn the basics of magic swordsmanship even if you don’t accept him as a disciple.
“Because one skill is certain. Just seeing it with your own eyes will help. If you’d like to, send me a letter. I’ll find you.”
“Thank you....”
Eventually, tears welled up in Tina’s eyes. When Kang Seung-hyun handed over the cut bandage, Tina said while wiping her tears.
“Even the Mage Tower teachers have never been so... good to me...
.”
Kang Seung-hyun overlapped himself and Tina, who are struggling because he became a healer who can’t use heals. If she had learned magic from the beginning or continued swordsmanship training, she wouldn’t have worried like that.
“Healer Kang Seung-hyun and tanker Kim Ho-jung, both of you are healthy! I’ll write a letter to Hind Village!”
Tina waved her hand and left the mage tower. He was alone again, but his expression was full of confidence.
“Is Tina okay?”
“It will be fine. I don’t know anything else, but one thing is for sure. We do our own thing.”
Kang Seung-hyun looked at the map of the Mage Tower in his hand. Thanks to Professor Tansel, it was easy to know where and what products were sold.
“There are a few things I must buy.”
