The Player Hides His Past Chapter 103

Episode 103. The way to go

Elder mage.

Senios of the Icecap.

In the process of disposing of Karimzeba, a high treason, he was killed in battle.

His funeral was conducted in secret.

“…Damn it.”

Someone said that and gnashed his teeth.

The elder mage of the Mage Tower died in battle.

It was not enough to hold a grand funeral.

It was because only twenty or so people were mourning him.

The inner circumstances of the Mage Tower.

The only ones who knew the truth were the senior wizards and above. They were the only ones who knew about Senios’ death. I know it can’t be helped, but…

“…I’m sorry. Sir Senios.”

In mourning mixed with complex emotions.

Marcelo looked at the frozen Senios.

‘You’re smiling.’

In the eternal snow that never melts.

Senios was laughing.

As if you lived a life without regrets.

‘But those left behind won’t be able to laugh like that.’

But Marcelo was mindful.

Senios closed his eyes to the devil.

And that it was because of the devil worshipers.

That is, the moment the mourning for Senios ended.

Marcelo opened his mouth.

“With this, the Mage Tower has suffered damage that is difficult to undo.”

Death of Senios.

Now, there is only one Elder Mage left in the Mage Tower.

However, Senios’ sacrifice was never in vain.

“But now I know for sure.”

There was emotion in Marcelo’s voice.

“Who is the enemy of our Mage Tower?”

The emotion was obvious anger.

The Mage’s Tower started moving after breaking the bondage of contradiction.

Senios’ sacrifice was tantamount to suggesting a destination to such a mage tower.

before the storm

Silence flowing quietly.

The senior wizards could tell without saying anything.

Didn’t you witness it in the first rift you entered?

The appearance of the pouring demons.

As a result, I learned that the devil has spread its demonic powers to this world, not even the continent of Arcana. It was only natural that there would be a change of heart.

Because the devil has a goal.

I must not delay.

‘…I am.’

Bangrit could not easily look at Senios.

I felt like an idiot for clinging to useless things.

Even that was not enough until he was tricked by a devil worshiper.

If I had noticed…

If only I had not been fooled and reported the fact to the Mage Tower…

Senios wouldn’t have come to this…

Bangritt lowered his head.

For a while.

It was a lofty voice that awakened Bangrit, who was shaking her head.

“Raise your head, Senior Wizard Bangrit Tom.”

“…!”

“Excessive silence is also illegitimate behavior.”

It was a hot voice.

“… Chief Lee Ho-yeol Lee.”

Bangrit raised his head and looked at Hoyeol.

A gaze focused on Hoyeol.

Ho-yeol suffered more than any other wizard in this place.

Because dealing with Karimzeba wasn’t enough.

All the demons called Corps Commanders poured into the rift Hoyeol and Senios had entered.

Moreover, Hoyeol witnessed Senios until the very end.

‘They’ll have a bigger psychological impact than anyone else.’

‘Just dealing with the devil must have drained his mind.’

‘If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to stand properly…’

It was only natural to worry about Ho-yeol.

To the point where such concerns are futile.

The heat was the same as usual.

He was just staring at Senios in an upright position.

There was no contradiction in his condolences.

according to formalities and procedures.

Ho-yeol finished his mourning for Senios without being shaken.

Those who watched thought.

‘You must be holding back your emotions desperately.’

Hoyeol has always been the head of the Mage Tower.

Now that there is a void in the mage tower.

You know for yourself that you shouldn’t be shaken.

Yes, without Marcelo being sad.

Just like the magic tower suggested the direction to go.

Seeing such passion, Bangrit came to his senses.

‘Chief Lee Ho-yeol is also enduring it…’

To think someone like me was rude.

Bangrit hurried forward to Senios.

I kept my mouth shut and commemorated Senios according to the procedure.

“…”

The person in question didn’t say anything.

After the appearance of Hoyeol.

They were the senior mages of the Mage Tower who felt a great sense of responsibility.

I couldn’t be sad

How long have you known Senios?

What about friendship?

Humanly sad and blah blah blah blah.

Because I witnessed his end.

my fucking pride

It was because he was saying that there was no reason to be sad at all.

Senios finally proved his pride and died in battle.

I remembered Senios’ expression. It really was a face with no regrets left. It was the last compared to Karimzeba, frozen in an ugly appearance.

I looked at Senios again.

He remembered the last thing he said.

-“The last lecture of my life was the best.”

I don’t think that expression without regret is thanks to me.

that’s because i knew

That Senios is a wizard who has been devoured.

‘Considering his personality…’

he said at the last moment.

He must have been most delighted that he defeated Karimzeba with ice magic.

But my condolences for him were more sincere.

You can’t do anything you don’t like, even if you die.

Because I was also a glutton.

“You probably don’t have enough time to sort out your emotions, but I’m sorry. kyung.”

Marcelo bowed his head to me.

No, there is no need to apologize so politely.

did you just say

Because I’m a guy who can’t do it if I don’t feel like it.

So I responded calmly.

“Never mind.”

Again—

I moved straight ahead and the place I was heading to was simple.

The lobby of the Magic Tower.

I checked the Internet at first, and the public interest in this incident was really no joke.

Well, it’s natural that you can’t understand it with common sense.

Didn’t everyone guess that name?

Appropriate level 900 [Crack in broken dimension] Crack.

At that time, 11 cracks with the same name had been created.

But in less than a few hours, all the cracks were cleared.

‘Actually, the players couldn’t even step out.’

Why didn’t the players step up?

Simple.

Because I stopped the manifestation of the magic tower portal. In any case, this crack in the [Cracked Dimensional Crack] was created in relation to the circumstances inside the Mage Tower.

The reason was that players would find nothing good about it.

‘So in the end.’

I guess everyone is bound to be mistaken.

Senior Mage of the Mage Tower.

No, because they are not enough.

You wouldn’t even imagine that even the elder mage entered the rift.

Naturally, the interest is bound to be directed towards me.

‘I think I’ve cleared all the cracks.’

There is no such thing as overestimation or overestimation, really…!

Does it make sense in common sense? that is!

Is it possible to clear 11 of those rifts alone in that short amount of time?

If only I hadn’t really been in the Mage Tower’s internal circumstances…!

But I knew the pride of this guy.

『The feeling of humility did not exist in Grandfel. Proof of underestimation. I had to make the overestimation a reality after all.”

That kind of me would be able to talk without changing a single expression.

But according to the tired pride.

I couldn’t even make up words that didn’t exist.

In front of the countless crowds gathered at the magic tower.

in the pouring flash.

I had no choice but to open my mouth like this.

“I will only answer what I can answer.”

Even more shameless than I thought.

“If you have any complaints, please refrain from asking questions.”

Breaking news pours in every word of Ho-yeol’s words.

──────

[Breaking News] Lee Ho-yeol “I entered the crack.”

[Breaking News] Lee Ho-yeol “I stopped the magic tower portal.”

[Breaking News] Lee Ho-yeol “I cleared the crack.”

──────

I never thought Lee Ho-yeol would accept the interview!

As a reporter, there was a windfall that was not even expected. Lee Ho-yeol today is different from usual. Could it answer any question?

There was also a reporter who asked sensitive questions about such thoughts.

“May I ask what happened in the rift?”

Of course, the answer that came back was cold.

──────

[Breaking News] Lee Ho-yeol “What happened in the crack? I will not answer.”

──────

But maybe it’s because I didn’t even expect it?

There was nothing wrong with Ho-yeol’s attitude.

The reaction of the public watching the situation was not very different.

-ㅁㅋㅋ Pushing and pushing

– But

the interview attitude

has improved a lot. It’s the first time I’ve seen reporters with such an orderly attitude. Really

– Hahaha Lee Ho-yeol’s attitude is always upright,

as it’s an opportunity that doesn’t come easily.

Reporters were persistent.

Among the questions they posed, there were also questions that stimulated the public’s curiosity.

“How was the difficulty of clearing the rift?”

Unless you know what happened inside the rift.

I’m going to look around and ask.

It was a question with such intention.

──────

[Breaking News] Lee Ho-yeol “All cracks are the same to me.”

──────

In any crack.

in front of any other devil.

An unchanging attitude of passion.

That’s what the answer meant.

Because it was impossible for the listeners to know Ho-yeol’s inner circumstances.

-Looks confident hahahahaha

-Lee Ho-yeol is qualified to say that hahahahaha

-This time, he showed it through actions rather than words

Comments updated in real time.

Leonie, who was watching, spoke softly.

-But don’t you ask that???

“…so why did you stop the portal?”

Other players don’t know.

Hisagi, Taemin Nam, who gathered here, including Leonie. And that was the most important question for Jesse.

Yes, because Ho-yeol showed it through actions rather than words, as he said in the comments.

‘…Maybe I can’t help either.’

Why?

Jessie didn’t want to hear Ho-yeol’s answer to that question.

It was because I was seriously thinking about this situation.

Maybe even help Ho-yeol himself.

I don’t think it’s meaningless anymore.

‘Otherwise, there must have been no reason to stop the portal.’

actions rather than words.

The portal had stopped operating as if there was no need to pursue him. Jesse could have guessed.

If Ho-yeol stopped the portal operation with that meaning…

‘Would you answer without hesitation…?’

It must be like drawing a line between yourself and Ho-yeol.

He couldn’t be a hindrance to Ho-yeol, let alone help.

It wasn’t just Jesse’s idea.

Everyone present had the same idea.

In the midst of the tension, the question was asked.

-“Did you have a reason for stopping the portal?”

And the answer without hesitation followed.

– “I will not answer.”

“…!!!”

Because Ho-yeol didn’t answer.

The reason was still unknown.

But at least it was a sufficient answer for those who were resigned.

‘Are you saying it’s on hold for now?’

‘Hoyeol wants to watch over me.’

‘…I’ll catch up really soon.’

The line has not been drawn yet.

as we do.

It may or may not go with Ho-yeol.

Once I realized that, it started to make sense.

South Taemin Leoni Hisagi looked at each other and said.

“…Could this be why you brought us together?”

“Hey.”

“No, it’s not just something to pass on.”

…Anyway, isn’t that a bit of an overinterpretation?

Leonie thought so.

I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

why didn’t you tell me

Ho-yeol shows through actions rather than words.

That’s why Jesse didn’t stay still.

Short-range teleport.

Jessie, who had left before she knew it, lifted the brim of the cone-shaped hat she was wearing.

And then, a tall hat. No, it was declared towards the master. It didn’t matter which quest goal it was.

“I will do my best!”

To stand on the same line as Ho-yeol.

As stated in the class quest.

Because I really thought I should become a [Archangel Wizard].

Is this also because of the heat?

Just like the magic tower.

who set new goals.

and.

Thursday is what we are waiting for such players.

It was a regular update of Arcana.

『A new area is coming to your side.

A new area ‘Goddess Church Holy Ground Muon’ will be added.]…

Goddess Church.

The Goddess Church was the most influential religion among the religions that existed on the Arcana continent.

It was to the extent that there was a saying in the Empire that ‘When three people get together, one of them is sure to be boring.’

no funny guy

That meant the members of the Goddess Church.

The doctrines of the Goddess Church are notoriously strict.

being one of the three at the same time.

It was also a word representing the enormous number of members of the Goddess Church.

Muon, the sacred ground of the Goddess Church, had appeared in reality!

Ho-yeol’s performance has already cooled down.

The community had no choice but to heat up again with the update details that came up one after another.

– If it is a Goddess Church, quests are pouring in unconditionally hahahaha

– Religion has been a mass of quests since the old days hahaha

– Still, the players will have a good time ㅜㅜ The days

when it was just a game.

Religion played a significant role on the Arcana continent.

In particular, players received a lot of help from the church.

From basic buffs to status ailment treatment to the transfer to the healer class.

It was no wonder that the players were inflated with anticipation.

“Doesn’t something seem to match?”

“right. to the magic tower. Frost in Yusra Kingdom. up to the muon.”

“It’s a small number of elites, but they have everything!”

yeah that’s weird

Even after checking the update history.

A person who has no reaction.

For example.

Click—

like the hot heat of slowly setting down a teacup.

I checked the update history.

Muon, the sacred ground of the Goddess Church…

Even if there is a gap of 10 years and several years, the Goddess Church cannot be ignorant. The Goddess Church has been the most powerful religion ever since Arcana started its service.

By the way.

It’s a strange thing.

That great Goddess Church.

‘why.’

I looked at the flashing message.

Specifically, the quest window.

[Class Quest: Extermination of Akkshan]

Annihilation of Akkshan and the demon hunters.

The last demon hunter.

Uncover the truth about the temple.
