The Player Hides His Past Chapter 177

Episode 177. Circle

I realized the whole story.

You’ve finally paid for your work, formality…!!

I didn’t sleep standing up, but I was standing upright while passed out!

You really feel what the dark history that dominated your body is.

It’s embarrassing, but let’s think positively.

‘I’m glad though.’

Let’s assume that I fainted and fell to the floor.

Click—

I put down the teacup and spoke calmly.

“I almost threw away my clothes.”

…Yes, his clothes must have been messed up, of course.

But the first thing that comes to mind is, of course, family.

‘Because it’s a special feeling.’

If I had seen my son collapsed because of the breaking news, my parents, especially Mrs. Choi, would not have been able to sleep at night because of my worries. Same goes for my sisters.

Even now, I just don’t show off.

Because every time I entered the rift, he asked after me.

‘In that respect, it’s been a while…’

Tsureung–

…The problem is what the identity of this metal sound is!

Have you ever had a heart problem?

That’s why I wondered if it was replaced with an artificial heart.

‘Eyy, that’s probably not the case anyway.’

I was lying in bed unconscious for only a few hours. Besides, I was in too good a condition to have a big problem with my body.

And above all, the message was visible.

[Your achievements resonate in space and time.]

[The beings of space and time talk about your qualifications.]

[Acquire the title ‘Transcendentalist’.]

I read it after chewing it slowly.

Then I checked the status window.

First of all, the level rose to 550 by 6 levels.

[Name: Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo]

[Title: Last Adventurer Sublime Transcendence]

[Class: Demon Hunter]

[Level: 550]

[Ability]

Strength: 110 / Agility: 120 / Magical Power: 461 / Luck: 12 / Aesthetic: Medium

[Possessed points: 6]

Where did you get the experience points from?

It wasn’t hard to guess.

It must have been the experience gained thanks to [Maintenance of Akkshan].

It was because they were demon hunters in hell who had hunted three demons with true names at level 900. Even if I only count the contribution of activating [Akkshan’s Keep], there’s no way I’ll go up by about 6 levels.

‘I didn’t do anything, but I’ll say thank you for now.’

so.

What happened to Gamigin, the demon lord of the fourth throne?

One thing is certain.

The gamigin guy must have fallen into hell.

So, whether on the Arcana continent.

It’s like you’ll never see it again in real life.

However, strictly speaking, I did not hunt Gamigin.

It’s understandable that I didn’t get that experience point.

The word bitter sour grapes comes to mind.

‘It might have been unfair.’

The limit for leveling up in Arcana’s system is 50 levels.

A high-ranking demon king whose level cannot even be guessed.

If I had only reached 50 levels after grabbing the Gamigin, I might have been lying on the bed kicking the futon kicking and floundering because I felt unfair… ‘Oh damn

formality.’

Of course, only internally.

For that reason, instead of experience points, the eyes went to the acquired rewards.

This was my third title, so I had to get used to it.

…How is it strange?

The place where the achievement resonated was not the Arcana continent, but ‘time and space’?

I don’t even know where it is, but the next message is more spectacle.

“The beings of space and time talk about my qualifications…”

Are you referring to the qualifications for the title ‘transcendent’?

You don’t even know what time and space are, so do you have any idea who the beings of space and time are?

But when you guessed it with your eyes.

‘Looking at it roughly, they must be great people, right?’

Still, judging from the fact that I acquired the title of Transcendentalist, the story about me seemed to have ended well. I don’t know who they are, but they might be the ones I’m grateful for.

Before I could finish thinking, I opened my mouth.

“About my qualifications? This is unacceptable.”

Apart from my thoughts, of course.

Although Grandfell’s lofty pride could not admit the evaluation of others.

I know you’re stubborn, but let’s get over it in a good way at times like this, Grandfel.

A title acquired by throwing a high-ranking demon king into hell.

Still, isn’t it worth looking forward to…?

I checked the effect of the title with reasonable expectations.

And I was astonished.

[Transcendentalist: The effect is sealed because the conditions are not met.]

…Because the bottomless poison has finally worked.

I rested until the next day and returned to my daily routine.

Marcelo congratulated me.

“Congratulations on reaching the ranks of the Circle.”

“circle”.

There are several magic books I read in the Mage Tower. Is there any way you don’t know the concept? To put it simply, the circle was the ultimate state that all wizards wanted to reach.

『The ring of the heart makes the circulation of magic power flow faster and more smoothly. There is a considerable gap between the efficiency of pure magical power and the output of unsophisticated magical power…] It

was simple to explain with an easy example.

“Looking at sutras, I realize my shortcomings.”

It was.

The thing that even Marcelo, the real head of the Magic Tower, couldn’t form was the circle.

So I had no choice but to be conscious.

Chi-leung—

I realized the cause of the metal sound instead of a heartbeat.

Skip the process and just look at the result.

I had the qualifications of a transcendental person by accomplishing the tremendous achievement of defeating a high-ranking demon lord, and that led to the opening of the circle.

but.

‘I guess I can’t eat raw until when as a trick.’

550 levels.

Because of the vessel that was far too insufficient to be called a transcendentalist, the circle of the heart was not properly circulating the circle.

groaning.

That’s why I heard that damn metal sound!

“It’s not something to be celebrated.”

I can’t even use the circle, so what kind of congratulations are you getting?

I spoke calmly

Judging by the look on your face, you’re misunderstanding again, Marcelo.

“That’s right. For you, even the circle is just a stage to pass through.”

No, that kind of overestimation is making me struggle with my teeth?! I wanted to push my chest out of resentment and let you hear the sound of my heart beating.

How could this bastard’s snout tell the truth?

“It’s more than a circle, so I’m interested.”

…You can clearly see the ulterior motive to change the story, Grandfel.

by the way.

Whether it was a trick or something, he threw the high-ranking demon king into hell.

But the effect is sealed.

I can’t even be ashamed of it.

‘I have to satisfy that condition no matter what.’

It’s probably not because the level is simply lacking. If it was something like that, it would have come up as a system message. Anyway, how am I supposed to find out the conditions…

I want to hold on to the beings of space and time and ask them.

‘Should I read the magic book first?’

I can already hear the creaking of my head.

It was when I thought of the kkuyeok kkuyeok method.

Marcelo opened his mouth.

“I thought that if you were a god, you would be able to look into the distant future.”

what else are you talking about

I couldn’t solve the circle right away, so what future?

But the question didn’t show on my face.

Marcelo continued.

“A circle at the magic tower at the moment when the tower lord was away. And the only person who knows about that level is the elder mage Yugwid. If you have a conversation about that…”

…Oops.

I forgot for a moment.

Like Akkshan, there was a senior in the Mage Tower, right?

Round table conference in the Mage Tower.

In particular, it wasn’t just the wizards of the Mage Tower that attended.

Originally, the people who should have gathered in Yusra’s Golden Palace were gathered in the Crystal Hall.

The reason was simple.

“You can’t overdo it.”

It was for the fallen Ho-yeol.

Hisagi glanced at Nam Tae-min with snake eyes.

“You’re excited for something like that.”

“…”

Let’s be patient.

Nam Tae-min did not respond.

Hisagi’s class was a magician, and he was as good at magic as he was at hand-to-hand combat.

It meant that Hisagi was included among the players the Mage Tower had accepted as apprentices while participating in the holy war.

“I feel as comfortable as at home.”

Under Harkon, he received training according to training, and even improved his magic at the Mage Tower. It’s a foul, this! i envy you. That was the reason Nam Tae-min gritted his teeth and ignored Hisagi.

“If it’s your first time, you might be dazzled. The view of Crystal Hall is definitely beautiful. Isn’t that right, Leonie?”

I was embarrassed and sat down, so why would you pretend to know me?

Leonie didn’t want to get involved, so she kept her mouth shut.

This time Nam Tae-min turned his head.

“I guess you were thinking the same thing as me?”

what else are you

“Aren’t snake eyes really unlucky?”

It really doesn’t fit the Great Coalition.

When Leonie shook her head, Kichi spoke softly.

It was boring to just keep an eye on the mage tower where I committed many sins.

“The three of you are good friends. Are you friends?”

“…?”

Tizzling—

‘Oh, I touched it for no reason.’

I should have recognized the spiky hair first.

Don’t you have a hedgehog?

Kitsch swallowed a sigh that he couldn’t even get his money back at the harsh reaction.

‘…No, but I’m on the same side.’

But soon, Leonie relaxed her eyes.

Yes, because the guilt lies with those two lumps.

Leonie killed her temper and replied.

“It’s just a business relationship.”

“Then you are just like me!”

“Are you the leader of the Shadow Mercenary Corps, Kichi?”

“That’s right, but what is the captain? Just call me comfortably.”

“Is that so?”

…No, that’s why you say you’re talking half-heartedly right away?

‘Whoever sees me is the older one?!’

It was only then that Kichi remembered Leonie’s sloppy mouth.

Did you just call me comfortable?

It’s a little regretful, but it’s something that can’t be undone.

And more than that…

“Let’s start a roundtable.”

Silence came at the words of the chief mage, Marcelo.

I was too lazy to chatter anymore.

Kitsch examined the atmosphere in the Crystal Hall.

‘What’s so hard about it?’

mage tower.

I knew that the rules were strict because I had heard rumors.

But anyway, anyway.

So many people gathered

Can’t hear anything but breathing?

‘It’s scary, really.’

This is also hot.

To be precise, the change brought about by the formality of Ho-yeol.

It was natural that Kitsch couldn’t notice.

‘…Are you saying it’s not the Magic Tower for nothing?’

The moment Kichi was once again admiring the majesty of the Magic Tower.

Marcelo got to the point.

“We won the battle against the demon king. Achieving goals beyond simple victory. You have succeeded in defeating the high-ranking demon lord.”

The silence was broken when the calm declaration of victory was dropped.

Only a handful of people knew about the plan.

“for a moment. A high-ranking demon king?”

“Was the demon king appearance message real?”

“I wasn’t mistaken either!”

“…but you already killed the Demon King?”

Hungry buzz—

No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t make sense.

The message of appearance must have come to mind at the moment when the rift was cleared and collapsed.

Who the hell can defeat a high-ranking demon king who sends an appearance message to an appropriate level 800-900 rift in such a moment?

As if answering a question, Marcelo said.

“Lee Ho-yeol did it as planned.”

“…!!!”

…Lee Ho-yeol?

everyone knew

Until he entered the [20th Throne] rift alone.

That’s what I checked through the update history.

What kind of monster appeared in that rift?

“There were two levels of 900 each, and one level of 920. It’s not enough that I took care of it by myself… You’re saying that even a high-ranking demon king was defeated at the moment the rift was cleared?”

Nonsense.

The players of the Mage Tower were buzzing.

In response, Jibril snorted.

“What makes no sense?”

“I can hear Miss Jibril!”

“What if I hear it? I’m a skilled mage, right? It’s because everyone lacks faith like this.”

Is it because the footless horse glides with wings?

Except for the player, the wizards in the Mage Tower were unmoved.

But the uproar did not last long.

“But for what reason? Can’t you see Chief Lee?”

“?”

At Jibril’s words, Klee looked around the Crystal Hall.

I guessed it from the moment Chief Marcelo stepped on the podium.

I really didn’t see any heat.

Aren’t you going to be absent from the meeting?

It was the moment Claire tilted her head.

“And I have one news.”

Marcelo continued.

That was something no one expected.

“Also, for the time being, Chief Lee Ho-yeol will step away from all the chiefs’ duties and take a break. From now on, I will take care of all the tasks that Chief Lee Ho-yeol was in charge of, including the tower.”

what?

“Is Lee Ho-yeol of the world resting?”

“…Ho-yeol?”

“!!!”

to have a rest

Because it was obviously unusual.

The top floor of the Magic Tower.

Tsureung─

Even at this moment after talking with Yugweed.

My heart was grinding and creaking.

Damn thanks to that, I can feel it.

To sum up Yugwid’s words in one line, it was simple.
