I’m the only magic tower owner episode 014
One hour after the duel.
I was watching Ko Shin-wook organizing his luggage in the grade office.
This school came to be such that one of the department heads even had a private office.
“……Now, this.”
Ko Shin-wook, who was rummaging through a drawer, brought out something with a sullen expression.
“What?”
“Exaggerated epaulettes.”
“Is there something like this?”
“……Uh, everyone is so embarrassed that I don’t kick it, I just put it in my pocket and carry it around.”
After being brutally defeated by me in a duel, Ko Shin-wook became a completely different person.
He raised a blood clot to his neck and said, ‘Die, Kim Yu-shin!’ The guy who was shouting was now no different from a gentle sheep.
“I have a trip to the dungeon scheduled for next week and the week after that. Now you can go. And this is a paid training ground usage ticket…”
The handover is very eager for a discouraged subject.
“And what the 2nd year department members have to do is have coffee when the student council or department seniors come…”
“Ah, that’s enough.”
I waved my hand.
“The section department position is up, I’ll just skip the dungeon trip.”
“……Huh?”
Go Shin-wook’s eyes, which had been dying, came back to life.
“And if you want, I’ll tell you about today’s duel in detail. If I say that a second-year classmate defeated an inferior student with one punch, Gao won’t survive, right?”
Ko Shin-wook’s eyes widened rapidly.
This guy is the type of person who cares a lot about what other people think. And since I am scheduled to take the early graduation exam and graduate in two weeks, there is absolutely no reason for me to take on the annoying job of being a department representative.
All I have to do is show off and get what I want.
“Ji, are you really going to do that? Thank you, Yushin! I’ve been looking at you wrong all this time!”
When the guy tried to cling to me with an emotional look on his face, he quickly widened the distance behind him and said.
“I have something I can help you with instead.”
“Well, of course! Just say anything!”
With this, I have the number one subordinate who listens well. I raised the corners of my mouth and asked.
“Do you know the girl Jin-ra from the student council?”
* * *
After searching through Ko Shin-wook’s various information networks, I was finally able to find the target of the recruitment list.
‘It’s him.’
Jin Jin-ra was sitting alone in the campus cafe, tapping on the screen of her smartphone.
I quietly approached her and secretly opened her status window.
Name: Jin Jin-ra
Unique Ability: Enchant
Personal characteristics: [Structure understanding Lv.4] [Sniper Lv.3] [All-rounder Lv.3]
Main stats: [acceleration 78] [horse power 45] [stamina 24] [strength 10]
Special abilities: [Charisma 20] [Adaptation 3] [Leadership 2]
Total ability score: [185]
I definitely think that talent is talent. Although he is still a first year student, his total ability score is much higher than that of Ko Shin-wook, a second year student.
He has grown more than when I first saw him.
‘It’s a little more interesting than that. The special ability has a charm of 20… … ‘
These ‘special abilities’, which differ from player to player, grow at a very slow rate compared to the main abilities.
It is quite rare to have a Charisma value of 20 while the total ability score does not exceed 200. It is even higher than the main ability, strength.
‘… … Hmm.’
As I continued to watch, I thought it was worth it.
Short and petite, with wavy violet colored hair and soft pink cheeks.
She’s not an eye-popping beauty or boasts model-like proportions, but she’s cute and dainty, so she’s the type that would be popular with men.
Well, what’s more important than that is the unique ability.
Jin Jin-ra’s ‘Enchant’ ability has the effect of amplifying the performance of objects.
I am considering recruiting her on the premise that she can enchant potions. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it really be a perfect match?
I approached her as naturally as possible.
“hi.”
She looked up from her smartphone and looked up at me with a puzzled expression.
“You’re Jin-jin, right? I came here after hearing about it from Shin-wook.”
“Oh, yes. Hello.”
“if……”
At that time, an alarm rang on her smartphone. She lowered her head and looked at the screen and said, ‘Ah.’ And she let out a short exclamation.
“I’m sorry. I’m a bit busy right now…”
She nodded and quickly disappeared from the cafe.
… … It’s a failure. This has been ignored, right?
“How dare you!”
Ko Shin-wook, who was hiding nearby, got angry and ran out. But he had already disappeared like the wind of progress.
“I said my name and you just chew on it? Right now…!”
“it’s okay.”
At my words, Ko Shin-wook quickly changed his attitude to a servile expression.

“Yu, Yushin. Just give me a little time, okay? I’ll call you somehow….”
“I told you earlier. I’m in a position to negotiate with her. I don’t want to force her to sit at the table in a high-handed manner.”
Ko Shin-wook lowered his head sullenly when he heard that he was no help.
“But it’s surprising that you were ignored so openly. Is that your personality?”
“okay.”
Ko Shin-wook sighed briefly.
“On the outside, he seems like a polite and kind junior, but he doesn’t even deal with people who don’t like him. Um, how can I say… it’s a sure thing to end a relationship?”
“Then does the person you see have a different attitude?”
“Aww, no kidding.”
Ko Shin-wook shook his head.
“You say there are no angels? He does all kind and pretty things for his seniors and is very cute. That’s why he’s not the only one of the 3rd and 4th grade seniors swimming in the fishing grounds.”
… … His personal life seems a bit strange.
I will try to recruit him because of his abilities, but I think I should avoid personal involvement as much as possible.
“Then what should I do to get Jin Jin-ra’s attention?”
Ko Shin-wook thought for a moment and then said.
“First of all, I don’t think I’ll ever deal with someone who I don’t think is a good match for me.”
“Hmm.”
“And as I said before, you are really good to those in power. If you want to be noticed by Jin Jin-ra, you have to go to the center of power in this school.”
“It’s the center of power…”
Ko Shin-wook felt my gaze and shrank his neck in surprise.
“S-are you really going to take the manager position again?”
“It’s no longer an annoying place to run coffee errands. There’s no need to give or take away.”
Ko Shin-wook breathed a sigh of relief.
I turned on my smartphone and accessed the school app.
“Hey, it’s too much of a hassle to think about it, so I’ll just go with the regular method.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Who are the people with higher power than the department head?”
“Well, if it’s people who get more benefits than the manager… they could be the club president, right?”
‘Club’ is a type of club concept commonly used in the academy.
People with similar abilities and with similar hobbies are gathering together to build something similar within the school.
The club support fee is enormous, so it is quite active, with people forming factions and competing against each other.
Of course, club presidents are the leaders of such groups. It’s convenient to think of him as just a club president.
I activated the duel function on the school app and scrolled down the list of students.
“Wait a minute! You can’t believe it….”
“Almost all of the club leaders are on a business trip to the dungeon. Oh, there are still a few people left.”
I pressed the ‘Duel’ button next to the student list.
[A duel request has been sent.]
[A duel request has been sent.]
[A duel request has been sent.]
[A duel request has been sent.]
“Ugh! Are you really crazy?”
Ko Shin-wook was pulling out his hair with an expression on the verge of fainting.
“Most of the club presidents are 3rd and 4th year students! Even if they could get a job at the guild right away, they are monsters who stay because of the school benefits! It’s no joke!”
Then it went better. This is a good opportunity to test to what extent my magic will work against existing hunter students.
“Actually, I wasn’t able to go to the dungeon, so I lacked some actual combat experience.”
“…Wow, haha! You really are crazy…! I-I don’t know about this! Got it? Huh?”
I smiled without saying a word.
This academy of love and hate has more bad memories than good memories.
I’ll completely shake things up before you graduate early.
* * *
Two days later, the day of the duel.
The Academy’s indoor gymnasium was full of people even though it was early in the day.
The reason was simple.
The rumor spread that Kim Yu-shin, a second-year student with a poor reputation, had challenged the four club presidents to a duel.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been on this stage!”
And in the center of the gym, Ma Yeon-gyeong, the club president of the ‘Historical Drama Research Club’, was looking around as if she had a new feeling.
“Once I entered the heart of the school, there were few challengers.”
She spoke in an acting tone as she placed her hand on her chest with an absorbed expression, as if an actress in a historical drama was grasping her emotions.
“The duel system created by the President started with the intention of stimulating and motivating each other, so that everyone can develop together! But what about now? As time goes by, the hierarchy has become fixed, and everyone has become complacent in their positions. there is!”
Her alluring voice echoed throughout the gym.
“That’s why I’m grateful that there are still such reckless challengers.”
She turned her head.
“Originally, there is an order in order to deal directly with me, the club leader, but I highly value your courage and have accepted a direct duel.”
“…Thank you for that.”
Opposite her, Yushin was stretching.
“Can’t we start slowly?”
“good night.”
She stretched out her arms.
“As I said in advance, I will give you the position of club president, and you will have all the dungeon entry rights and benefits. What are the other conditions?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Then let’s begin.”
When she signaled to the facility staff, the staff tsk, clicked their tongues and raised their arms.
“From now on, the friendly duel between second-year Kim Yu-shin and third-year Ma Yeon-kyung begins!”
Oooooh!
Academy students who were thirsty for the big match erupted in cheers from all over.
Ma Yeon-gyeong, whose emotions were heightened by the long-awaited duel, tore her mouth open and laughed.
“Go! Kim Chunchu!”
“……It’s Kim Yu-shin.”
She lightly ignored Yushin’s correction and began creating toxic spheres around herself.
His specialty was ‘poison needle’.
“Of course you’ve researched my unique abilities, right? But no defense or evasion technique can beat my power…!”
Shoo! Shoo!
Before she could even finish her line, Yushin’s Mana Arrow was fired and tried to scatter the toxic sphere that was being created.
“……uh?”
“I have no intention of avoiding it or stopping it.”
Yushin said.
“Just shoot them all and drop them, that’s it.”
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Yushin’s Mana Arrow, which was completed in almost a second and flew away, was shattering the creation of toxic spheres.
“……this!”
Ma Yeon-gyeong responded by simplifying the power of the toxic sphere and increasing its creation speed to the highest level, but Yushin’s reaction was sour.
The speed of the magic circle’s development was much faster than that, and it even seemed like there was room to make extras in advance.
“……Uh, huh?”
“What’s going on?”
Everyone was expecting to see Yushin covered in poison and suffering, but they were surprised to see the situation develop differently than expected.
Ma Yeon-kyung, the club president of the ‘Historical Drama Research Club’, was not able to make a single proper attack.
‘Cow, I can’t keep up with your speed! It keeps growing!’
Cold sweat broke out on Ma Yeon-gyeong’s forehead.
He is being completely manipulated by Yushin.
puck! Quack!
Now Mana Arrow has begun to attack the caster directly.
As Mana Arrows flew into her shoulders and thighs one after another, shaking the force field of her mana suit, Ma Yeon-gyeong’s expression became even stronger. Concentration was scattered and the speed of poison needle creation also decreased.
‘… … Man, I can’t beat this. It’s the best. The reason why this bastard deliberately challenged me… … !’
She gritted her teeth and looked at Yushin.
Even at this moment, a new Mana Arrow magic circle was proliferating around Yushin at an unbelievable speed.
“Do you want to surrender?”
“……Pfft!”
The moment Ma Yeon-gyeong was in tears and tried to fight back with all her magical power, a magic circle that covered the sky in bright blue came into her sight.
How many of those are there?
This was too overwhelming.
Ma Yeon-gyeong, who had been looking up at the sky in fascination, eventually lowered her head.
“……I will surrender.”
Murmur.
Perplexed voices came out from all directions. The facility staff, who had been watching the duel blankly, belatedly came to their senses and straightened their arms.
“The game is over! The winner is Kim Yu-shin, a sophomore.”
Yushin exhaled lightly while listening to the noise of people.
The blue magic circles that covered the sky also disappeared.
‘3rd grade level is also an easy win.’
-It’s a natural result, top owner.
At that moment, a man who had been watching the duel nearby trudged forward.
“I’m next.”
Ha Jin-ho, 3rd grade Maenghwa (猛火) club leader.
His face had thick lines and was so old that it was hard to believe he was a college student. When he took off the training top he was wearing, his bulging muscles were revealed.
“I enjoyed the duel. It seems like what you did wasn’t just a childish prank, so don’t let down your guard anymore.”
“Thank you, senior.”
The facility staff looked at Yushin and asked.
“It’s a series of games, will you be okay?”
“Yes. No problem.”
The employee nodded and raised his arms.
“Then, now the friendly duel between second-year Kim Yu-shin and third-year Ha Jin-ho begins!”
The buzzer sounded to signal the start, and the spectators once again shouted.
“The previous match must have been advantageous. Even so, it was too much for senior Ha Jin-ho.”
“of course.”
“This is not an opponent that can be helped by the speed at which its abilities develop.”
While everyone was watching and giggling, Ha Jin-ho spread his legs shoulder-width apart and leaned on his stomach.
“Whoop!”
His entire body turned dark brown, and scales stood out on his skin.
Clud! Coo!
His hands and feet grew larger, claws appeared, and his face also took on the shape of a reptile, with a protruding snout.
A metamorphosis type of ability that inherits the power of monsters. Among them, Ha Jin-ho’s main character was the dragon monster ‘Salamander’.
Clud!
Red veins appeared all over his upper body.
When Ha Jin-ho held his breath and leaned his upper body back, one side of his abdomen bulged and came up with a gurgling motion.
It then passed through the abdomen, chest, and esophagus, and when he opened his mouth, a glowing sphere of flame appeared.
It was ‘Flame Breath’, the symbol of Salamander and a technique that could be said to be everything.
“Oooooh!”
Hearing cheers pouring in from all directions, Ha Jin-ho looked at Yushin in triumph.
While he took out his flame breath, his opponent just stood there and watched.
‘Why are you so carefree?’
Finally, Yushin began to move.
When he opened his palm, the mana quickly formed a circle.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
“Huh?”
“Over there too!”
This time it was not in the shape of an arrow.
A red-hot fireball appeared above the magic circle that Yushin had developed.
‘What is this… … !’
Ha Jin-ho’s eyes were colored with astonishment. Same flame type technology. It even seemed bigger than his own.
“Now, which one is faster?”
Yushin grinned and stretched out his arms.
