Only I Am the Magic Tower Lord Episode 255
A gray hell with dust and ashes flying like snow.
Seven adventurers walk toward the large door that is the last place in this hell, leaving footprints behind.
Pop. Pop.
A drenched old woman sweeps the door with her wrinkled palm. Her hands interpret the language engraved on the outside of the door.
“This door is right.”
She said, looking back at the people.
“This is the final destination.”
The man with the split torso cheered.
A woman with grass growing on her skin raised her arms.
The fat baby grinned and chewed the meat.
The headless man gritted his teeth at the head in his hand.
“It’s been a long journey, thank you all for your hard work.”
Among the cheering group, a man wearing an old, old brown cloak walked to the door.
He patted the door like the wet old woman did and spoke with confidence.
“let’s go.”
The man held the door with both arms and opened it with force. His companions followed suit.
The scene unfolding before them was the interior of the ‘castle’. The man took a quick look around and scratched his eyebrows with a strange expression.
“I think I know what it is.”
Rumbling!
The ceiling shook and stones fell. As the vibrations become more intense, an unusual atmosphere flows. Everyone looked around with anxious faces.
Coo!
Even the castle door closed on its own. The man whose head fell quickly ran and knocked on the door, but it did not open.
The tremors reach a peak, and then the ceiling completely collapses, falling on them.
The man in the robe waved his arms like windmills.
The wind spreads like a net, redirecting the debris falling overhead. It falls in a different location by a narrow margin.
“Is everyone okay?”
“Yes! Thank you!”
And where the ceiling completely collapsed, a purple night sky with twinkling stars was revealed. The walls that maintained the castle collapsed along with the ceiling, leaving only the bare steel frame.
And there was something coming down from the night sky and resting its legs on the steel frame of the ceiling.
It has the body of a large eagle and the face of a human. Green magical energy was fluttering from the wings, which were larger than the body.
-Keeeeee!
The monster roared.
Although his colleagues covered their ears in fear, the brown-robed man happily faced the fear with a smile.
He took off his hood and flipped it over. Her long black hair fell down, and smoke billowed from her bright blue eyes.
In the other world, a man is revered as a hero who saved the world.
It was Kim Yu-shin, the magic tower lord.
“Come at me.”
The eagle flapped its wings and flew up.
Then, it flew slowly as if to capture Yushin and his colleagues in the sky. The frightened ‘Man with his Head Dropped’ hurriedly ran out of the castle.
“Ah! Chager!”
The moment he stepped on the ground outside the castle, the vast plain disappeared and turned into a blue sea.
As if under the effect, the saint began to shake as if he were on a boat.
“Don’t be rash, Frost. The more you move, the more disadvantaged we will be.”
The man whose head fell off clung to the pillar, trembling.
A winged monster spreads its wings in the sky. Countless feathers stood on end, ready to fall off.
‘Whoa.’
Yushin’s eyes sink. Magical power wriggled out of his body.
Kale (Cheir).
Soma.
Ops.
Cardia.
The magical power that flowed out transformed into four metal plates rotating in the air.
“Let’s go. Process 7.”
Yushin raised his arms.
The four metal plates scattered with light and were sucked into Yushin’s body. Soon, a pair of brilliant wings unfold behind his back.
The monster swung its wings and launched feathers, and Yushin also sent feathers flying from his wings. The feathers that became flashes collided countless times in the air, making loud noises one after another.
“It’s finally finished!”
“you can do it!”
Colleagues cheered enthusiastically.
Some of them even moved directly to help Yushin.
When the woman with grass growing on her skin unleashed magical power, vines sprouted from the floor and wrapped themselves around the eagle.
When the fat baby opened its mouth wide, faces identical to the baby’s popped out from all over the eagle’s body, chewing on the skin with its teeth.
As the bifurcated man takes the heart out of his mouth and squeezes it in his hand, a blood-red cross becomes embedded in the eagle’s chest.
-Kiiiiiiiii!
The eagle screams. In the battle with Yushin, the firepower begins to decline, and soon Yushin’s feathers become embedded in the eagle’s body.
Yushin immediately stretched out his right arm and clenched his fist. All the feathers turned into huge flames and set the monster on fire.

The burning monster turned into ashes and fell from the sky into the sea.
“I won!”
“Waaaaah!”
Colleagues cheered. Yushin also sighed in relief and lowered his right arm.
[congratulations! The ordeal has been cleared.]
[The ‘Magic Workshop’ on the 7th floor of the Magic Tower is unlocked.]
[Acquire some of the characteristics of ‘Magic Engineer’.]
Yushin smiled happily and looked back. The faceless woman had her arms spread out.
“You’ve worked hard, Yushin.”
“mom!”
Yushin jumped into her arms.
“I’m so proud of you, son.”
“Thank you, Mom. I was able to come this far thanks to you.”
A faceless woman patted Yushin’s back. Her colleagues were applauding in the background.
But Yushin knew. Now the moment of separation is approaching
“What are you going to do when you return to the original world?”
To her question, Yushin answered firmly.
“I will drive out from the world the demons and disasters that killed my mother. I will end all irrationality in the world with my own hands.”
“Yeah, I see.”
Her body turns white and begins to disperse in the air. Although her face was not there, the woman Yushin could see was smiling.
“I will support you until the end, my son.”
Her body completely disappeared. Her colleagues also disappeared. Soon, Yushin was back in the pure white space where he had come from the beginning.
Clap clap!
I hear applause.
When he turned his head towards the sound, the white-haired boy who guided Yushin to the world of consciousness was clapping.
“Congratulations on clearing, Kim Yu-shin.”
“thanks.”
Yushin closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
“Is it all over now?”
“Yes. Cleared the world of consciousness, which is a combination of Requiem’s consciousness collection and the 7th floor trial, in 7,512 times! It was great.”
“……Are you putting me on drugs right now?”
The fact that Yushin was able to freely wander around the world of consciousness was entirely due to the effect of Requiem magic.
The recipient of Requiem magic goes on a journey to find themselves by confronting their own fear, sadness, and anger.
But here ‘he’ interfered. Just before entering the world of consciousness, he asked:
-After all, it would be better to learn the 7th process, right?
He recommended that if you are going to be active in the world of consciousness, you should also clear the ‘7th floor trial’. When Yushin first received such a suggestion, he was confused.
-Can you do those two things at once?
-huh! Actually, the 7th floor ordeal also involves entering the inner world, so the stages overlap. If I were the one who created the 7th floor ordeal, I could easily recreate it. What should I do?
Yushin continued to wonder about this boy.
In fact, his true identity is the person who created Noah’s Ark called the Magic Tower to combat disaster.
Yes. This boy was the ‘first magic tower lord’.
With the help of the first magic tower lord, Yushin regained consciousness and even learned the 7th process of magic.
“by the way.”
Yushin said, looking at the invitation.
“The final boss is ‘Albert, Lord of the Sky Castle’. Isn’t that too cliché?”
“That too is a product of your unconsciousness.”
The invitation shrugged.
“I guess you felt the greatest threat from the Lord of the Sky Castle who killed you once?”
“She didn’t kill me, she just gave up my strength.”
“Either that or that.”
The two people laughed out loud.
“Now it’s goodbye.”
“huh.”
“The spell I placed on you has expired. I will never appear in front of you again.”
“okay.”
Yushin made eye contact with him and spoke sincerely.
“Thank you so much.”
“It was nothing.”
“Oh, by the way… how much time has passed if you go outside now?”
The invitation extended five fingers.
“Five years.”
“What a mess… Nemesis hasn’t come yet, right?”
When Yushin asked worriedly, he chuckled.
“There’s still some time until Nemesis. You go back and find out the details.”
“Tsk, okay.”
As soon as he could answer like that, Yushin’s body turned blurry.
“Hmm! Requiem’s effect was applied properly.”
The invitation smiled in satisfaction.
“Go back quickly. Everyone is going to miss you like crazy.”
“Is that so? I guess my memory will have faded in five years.”
“Hehe, you are destined to never be forgotten by people.”
Choi, who was talking with his arms crossed, stretched out his index finger.
“It seems too reckless to go back without any information after five years, so I’ll give you a hint.”
“hint?”
“Yes. Actually, it’s against the ‘rules’, but it’s okay if I tell you this much.”
The invitation said with a very serious expression.
“There is someone among your acquaintances who has become a demon.”
“……!”
The moment Yushin heard those words, he felt all his thoughts stop.
It felt like I had been hit hard on the head with a hammer.
“What are you talking about!”
Yushin suddenly rushed forward and shook the boy’s body.
“Main? You’ve become a Majin? Is this really someone I know?”
“okay.”
In the midst of the confusion, there were many things I really wanted to ask.
But Yushin only asked this.
“……What is the cause?”
“Your death.”
Yushin’s expression became even more painful.
Did that happen in the end? The biggest reason humans degenerated into demons was mental problems.
“Once we get back, our priority will be to find that person who has become a demon. It looks like he hasn’t been discovered yet.”
“……okay.”
It was no use saying anything to the boy.
Because he was just telling the truth.
“thanks for letting me know.”
I meant it. If I had gone to reality without knowing this fact, I would have been in real trouble.
“There’s still time before the demon moves, so don’t be hasty. It’s all up to you.”
Yushin’s body became increasingly blurred.
The invitation said with a bright smile.
“Then Kim Yushin’s second life begins! Have fun!”
After a while, Yushin’s body completely disappeared from the world of consciousness.
* * *
As soon as I opened my eyes, refreshing sunlight came down.
Did he really come back?
I slowly stood up.
I always felt like I was floating in the conscious world, but it had been a long time since I felt the heavy weight of my body.
I waited a moment for my eyes to adjust to the sunlight and then slowly looked around.
“ah……”
An exclamation came out of my mouth without me knowing. The scenery I had missed so much was unfolding.
This is the Seoul Plaza fountain.
Children running freely on the lawn, young couples kissing while sitting on a bench, even office workers running while answering the phone with their suit coats on their shoulders.
If you look toward downtown, you will see familiar Seoul signboards.
Cars pass by on the road honking their horns, and people can also be seen crossing the crosswalk with wireless earphones plugged in. And even the unique thick fine dust, all of these scenes exude the feeling of Seoul.
Yes. I’m back.
I am so moved by this fact that it brings tears to my eyes.
‘You said five years later, right?’
First, I looked at my outfit. He was wearing plain jeans and a hoodie.
I searched my pants pockets to see if there was anything else, and found my old cell phone, a few crumpled bills, and the subspace pocket I used when I was a hunter.
Inside, there was only one necklace with the ‘Water Curtain’ spell, Anton’s relic.
‘He’s kind too.’
Normally, I would have been lying in a hospital or a magic tower, but it looks like the invitation took special care to get me out.
From my perspective, this is a very good start.
The more you open your eyes around people, the more things you have to explain.
‘Now, what should I do now?’
In the world of consciousness, I endured difficult trials thinking only about returning. But when I came back, I felt a little lost.
Still, for now, my first goal is clearly set.
‘… … I said there was someone I knew who became a demon.’
No one in this world knows that I am alive. If you want to find out which of your colleagues is Mine, now is the perfect opportunity.
If you contact them and share their thoughts while hiding your identity, wouldn’t you be able to get a good clue?
‘and.’
I spread my arms and enjoyed the sunlight shining down.
Looking back, my life as Mapju was so busy that I didn’t even notice it. I wanted to enjoy this freedom a little more before going back to that life again.
When I returned to Korea, I walked to the place I wanted to go the most.
* * *
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.”
My first stop was the sauna. After going into the hot sauna and sweating off all the sweat, I felt tired. It feels like her whole body is melting.
‘Oh, I really wanted to come here.’
Five years later, nothing has changed in the world. First of all, isn’t there a sauna now as it was 5 years ago? That is a reassuring fact.
After getting out of the sauna room, I went straight to the store.
The foods I had longed for so much in the world of consciousness were lined up on display.
“Yukgaejang bowl noodles, elfin eggs, sweet potatoes, and sikhye.”
I put all the snacks I had purchased on a tray and sat down in a suitable place where I could see the TV. First, I peeled off the foil and took out the sweet potatoes.
“Uh tsk.”
After several attempts to peel the sweet potato, I cut it in half.
As smoke rises, the golden appearance inside the shell is revealed to be delicious. I picked it up and took a bite.
“Ughhhhh!”
The hot but dense sweetness hits the brain.
happy. Tears come out.
I grabbed the large bottle of sikhye right next to me and sucked it up through a straw. The cold taste of sikhye floating on thin ice cooled my heated palate.
After putting down the sikhye, I immediately took a bite of the delicious brown colored egg.
The flavor fills your mouth and makes you shudder. The taste of the moist and chewy yolk is excellent.
After putting down the egg and completely peeling off the cup ramen, I quickly stirred the cooked noodles with wooden chopsticks and went straight to my mouth.
What explanation is needed? It’s a taste of heaven.
“Mom! My brother is crying.”
“Shh.”
Hmm, hmm. I’m not ashamed.
This is my first Korean food in 30 years. Who wouldn’t react like this?
No one can stop me. I gulped down the soup, enduring the pain until it reached the roof of my mouth.
‘Ah, good. ‘This is how people live.’
[Yes, this is the next news!]
An old man is lying down holding the remote control and watching the news.
There were kids snooping around who wanted to watch the entertainment program, but they didn’t dare get close to the old man, who was giving off a cool attitude with his whole body.
[Minister of Magic Cha Do-yeon announced a new wizard training policy.]
I chuckled and swallowed the egg.
‘You’re doing well. Mr. Doyeon.’
Cha Do-yeon, dressed in a suit and with her hair tied up, was taking questions in front of reporters. It’s completely different from the 4th floor team days.
I drank a large bottle of sikhye to cool my hot mouth. When her reporters asked her questions, she opened her eyes sharply and answered.
[of course. We solemnly recommend that Mage Tower owner Daeyong Na stop his reckless behavior and follow the instructions of the Association.]
“Puchup!”
I ended up spitting out the sikhye I had stopped drinking.
