I’m the only magic tower owner episode 336

Epilogue 2

She continued her journey.

I couldn’t even tell how much time had passed.

Crossing the desert.

Past the pole.

We passed through a vast jungle.

Even though her entire body was broken and she suffered from bone disease, she never gave up.

Eventually, we crossed the continent and arrived at the westernmost port city. She planned to procure her food and water here and board her ship.

Since I couldn’t get any information despite wandering around like this, it is highly likely that the tower fell in a place outside of humanity’s news network. So this time I planned to go further north.

“I heard you’re looking for a part-time job cleaning ships.”

She traveled around the village to earn money. A muscular man with a long beard waved his hand.

“No, no. There are complaints that if you bring a woman on board, you will have bad luck.”

This was a familiar treat by now. She bowed her head without a word and went outside to look at the bulletin board with the job announcement.

“I found it! Count Hongyeon!”

At that time, someone was running calling her name. This man wearing knightly armor was a face Hongyeon knew.

“……Lord Aaron?”

“You’re here! I’ve been looking for you for a while.”

Aaron looked at the bulletin board Hongyeon was looking at and smiled bitterly.

“Has the hero been doing this kind of chore? All you have to do is go to the castle, reveal that you are an imperial earl, and get paid.”

“I declined the title. And I have no intention of extorting money from a foreign country using my status.”

“You’re still smart. Ah! I have good news for you.”

Aaron took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and held it out.

“I ran all the way here to deliver this.”

“what is this?”

“This is news about the tower the Count was looking for.”

Hongyeon quickly unfolded the parchment and read it.

It was news that an unidentified tower had been discovered in a small rural village located at the southernmost tip of the Kiola Kingdom.

‘If it were the Kingdom of Kiola, I would have fallen for the first time…’ … ‘

The tower was only 200 km away from her first destination.

Of course, it was quite a distance, but it was nothing compared to the amount of travel she had made so far.

“The gray exterior walls that the Count mentioned, and even the structure of the nine-story tower are all consistent. It was so small that the news arrived late… Count?”

Before I knew it, the parchment was soaked with tears dripping down.

“…… Thank you.”

She wiped her eyes with her sleeve.

“……Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

Aaron smiled slightly and waited for her to calm down. It occurred to me that he was truly a person with a lot of stories.

“I have arranged the boat for you. I have already paid the fare, so you can get on board right away.”

“…Why are you helping me like this, His Majesty? I declined the position in the empire.”

Aaron smiled, putting his hands on his hips.

“It’s natural to help. The Count is a great hero! If you hadn’t chased away the dragon that ran amok during the last capital defense battle, 20 million imperial citizens in the capital would have burned to death.”

“…….”

There was no reason not to accept help as long as it was offered.

“Thank you again.”

After sailing on a ship for a week, she arrived at the port of the Kingdom of Kiola.

It was another long walk from this port to the point marked on the parchment. With her mind firmly set, she came out of her village and was passing through the beginning of the forest.

-It’s Hongyeon!

-Hongyeon! Hongyeon! Hongyeon!

The forest spirits approached her and clung to her body, acting affectionately. Hongyeon, who was now in a familiar situation, was petting her spirits as they sat on her fingers.

-Where are you going, child?

A spirit’s voice was heard from somewhere in the forest.

I felt a very huge presence.

“I’m heading to Leman Village.”

Coo coo coo coo coo!

As soon as she could answer, tree roots rose from the floor and lifted Hongyeon’s body. She let out a short scream and hit her butt.

Her gaze became higher and higher. The leaves at the top of the tree touched her head, and soon the entire forest was visible.

What rose from the ground was a huge old tree. It had eyes and a mouth, and countless stems swayed in the wind.

-Our spirit world owes you great favor. I will take you to Leman Village.

-Take me there! Take me there!

The old tree walked across the forest with its large body.

The surroundings passed incredibly quickly, and I was able to cover a week’s distance in just a few hours.

Hongyeon finally arrived at her destination and bowed her head.

“Thank you, spirit.”

-hi! hi!

-The grace of nature will always be with you.

The old tree and the spirits left, and Hongyeon entered Liman Village, the last base on the way to the tower.

As the day was getting late, we decided to visit the tower tomorrow and went to the inn.

‘I can see my senior tomorrow.’

Calming her pounding heart, she stood in front of the mirror. After living like a walking corpse without ever looking in the mirror, her appearance was astounding.

Embarrassment came over me later and my face became hot.

She washed herself thoroughly. She cast recovery magic on the bruised and injured area, and her skin returned to white and clear skin.

It’s been a while since I sprayed perfume and applied something like lotion from another world on my face to get in the mood.

She quickly regained her original appearance with magical powers.

So the next morning.

As soon as daybreak she found a carriage in the village.

“Please go to the Forest of Demonic Beasts.”

Hongyeon said as she climbed into the back seat of the carriage. The coachman opened his eyes wide and asked her questions.

“Forest of Demonic Beasts?”

“yes.”

When the driver pulled the reins, the horse took a step forward and the wheels began to roll.

“I’m going because they give me money, but what are you doing in that gloomy forest?”

“……Ahaha, I just have some personal business to attend to.”

“I usually don’t try to go to that forest. There’s a strange tower.”

One day, a huge tower that suddenly fell in the middle of the forest became one of the main topics of discussion among the village residents.

“The rumors are so scary.”

The coachman lowered his voice and said.

“It’s a tower that attracts monsters. It’s going to be swarming with demonic beasts that will invade the world.”

Hongyeon calmly nodded and listened to the story.

“Nauri Baek Gyeong-baek came forward and tried to demolish the tower. Well, neither arrows nor magic could even put a scratch on the tower!”

“Incredible.”

“The lady’s outfit makes me think she’s a wizard, but still take care.”

Hong Yeon nodded and smiled slightly at the chattering coachman’s words.

In fact, there was a story he couldn’t tell.

The tower does not invite monsters.

There are no demonic beasts inside.

There is just a man sleeping.

After traveling for several hours by carriage, we got closer to our destination. Slowly, the top of the tower began to come into view.

“As promised, this is as far as I can go with you.”

The driver stopped the horse.

“If you go further, monsters will appear.”

“Yes, it’s okay. Thank you.”

She paid the driver’s wages and went into the forest alone.

‘senior.’

As the tower got closer, countless thoughts cluttered her mind.

Is that really the top?

Will my senior be safe?

What will I say when I meet him?

My steps got faster and my breathing became heavier.

I walked through the bushes like a person being chased, not knowing if I was walking properly or how far I had walked.

While I was walking frantically, a gray fog began to cover the forest at some point. The fog in the forest was getting thicker.

‘Fog barrier.’

She closed her eyes and remembered what Yushin had said about Angyegye.

-The destruction of the fog barrier is simple. Let the mana inside your body flow outward and see where that mana flows. The magic tower is a kind of lightning rod and has the ability to attract mana.

She let mana flow into her fingertips.

If only a small amount was released, it was scattered in the atmosphere, but when the density was increased and it was released, it was really moving in a certain direction like a compass.

She concentrated her mind and walked in the direction where the mana flowed.

“……ah.”

Then, at some point, the fog cleared like a picture, and a towering tower appeared in an open area.

Standing this close, her appearance was almost identical to what she knew. She felt her heart beating faster and faster and she walked to the front door of the magic tower.

Yushin had engraved the symbol of the Magic Tower on her arm, so she carefully placed her palm on the front door.

Ugh!

I entered the tower with the feeling of my body being sucked in.

“…….”

A pitch-black space unfolded where not even an ounce of light could be found.

There was only suffocating silence and it was so cold that it stung. She blew out her white breath and placed her hands on her waist.

Sreung.

The sword device was pulled out with a clear sound. She straightened her sword and looked around her.

Her golden eyes had now adapted to the darkness and were able to discern objects around her.

A straight table carved from solid wood.

Glass tubes tangled like a spider’s web.

And a sofa painted gold.

Then I noticed something familiar. A magazine placed on the table.

She carefully opened the magazine.

‘korean… … !’

How long has it been since I last saw Hangul? A stronger confidence than ever came to her.

‘This is the magic tower I know. ‘There’s no doubt about it.’

Suddenly tears came to my eyes.

But it wasn’t the time to be thrilled yet. If she made even one mistake, both Yushin and herself were in danger.

I made up my mind.

Homunculus EA did not appear. As Jin Jin-ra said, it seemed to have entered a dormant state due to the long-term suspension of the Magic Tower’s activities.

Hongyeon walked with her sword in front of her, looking around carefully. She soon found what she wanted.

‘That’s a magic circle elevator.’

She carefully stepped on the magic circle. Buttons were created in the air with a low sound effect.

Blue lights are on on all floors from the 1st to the 9th floor.

‘The place where the senior is sleeping is on the 9th floor.’

Her fingertips trembled as they reached for the button.

‘Don’t be a coward.’

She closed her eyes and pressed the button. My vision changed in an instant, along with the feeling of floating as my legs floated.

The 9th floor Magic Tower Lord’s room.

Finally, finally we have come here.

She opened her eyes and stared ahead.

A luxurious desk decorated with jewels, a maroon leather chair, and even a transparent wall that offers a view of the outside of the tower.

It matched perfectly with the appearance of the 9th floor that Jin Jin-ra had described in detail for fear of making a mistake.

And although it’s hard to see from here because it’s covered by a bookshelf, there was a bed at the end of the room.

Right there… … .

Someone was lying down.

Exciting!

My saliva is dry. There is extreme tension.

The efforts of the past years exist for this very moment.

She calmly laid down her sword and slashed the air.

As if pulling the zipper of a closed bag, the air is torn apart.

In order to use the ‘Chaos’ of the 8th process, the other world had to be consumed, and the other world was the entire inside of this magic tower.

Every time she draws her sword in the air, drop-like things fall from the air and stick to the sword body.

[…] … ah.]

Then I heard someone’s voice.

[…] … iced coffee… … Ahhh! … … Ahhh!]

With a voice full of madness, something like a purple gas pokes its head out of the bedroom. Hongyeon almost screamed.

[flesh! Vivid human body! How long has it been since this?]

It was Nemesis in the spirit state.

And the one lying on the bed is definitely Yushin. The end of Nemesis’ gas-like body was attached to Yushin.

[And you… … Yes, yes! Guardian of the Earth! Have you come this far!]

A cold wind blew into the room, and the papers in the room fluttered and flew up.

[Give it to me.]

Nemesis’ body swelled rapidly. Two arms appeared on his body, and the outline of his face was revealed.

[Give me that body!]

At the same time as Nemesis rushed towards him with his mouth wide open, Hongyeon swung his sword.

Sreung!

A sword strike with the colors of chaos struck the air.

[To no avail… … !]

Nemesis stopped speaking.

Nemesis’ body, which could not be damaged by any attack, was split in half in a split second.

[Uh, how could this be… … ! Ahhhhh!]

With a tearing scream, the purple soul was reduced to ashes and scattered.

The wind blowing in the room calmed down again, and the documents that were littering the air fell to the floor.

‘finished.’

The end of the great catastrophe that brought destruction to countless worlds was short.

Hongyeon let out a long sigh and put the sword in her waist.

It was a long journey.

Exciting!

She took a step.

To Yushin, who is lying on the bed.

My heart, which had become cold due to the battle, started beating like crazy again the moment I saw Yushin.

Exciting!

It’s definitely true.

It was definitely him.

Maybe it’s because of the Titan magic, but it doesn’t look any different from when we parted ways in the New World. He has a neat appearance without any beard.

Yushin’s current state is to surround himself with Titan magic to prevent his body from being taken away, and to protect his mind, he is immersed in a deep world of consciousness using Requiem magic.

Time passes slowly in the mental world. She couldn’t even guess how long she had been fighting alone.

She regained her concentration and stretched out her arms. Through remote chanting, a blue magic circle was drawn on Yushin’s bed.

A magic that breaks the bonds of mana and nullifies significant magical effects from the source.

<High Road Cancellation>

Hwaaaaaaa!

Blue light welled up and enveloped Yushin’s body.

The Requiem magic disappeared in an instant, but the Titan magic remained on Yushin’s body like a black stain on his clothes and could not be erased.

“senior!”

She summoned Yushin and raised her magical power once again.

<High Road Cancellation>×10

This time, blue light surged up and purified Yushin’s body, but the stain still remained.

“Come back! Please!”

She screamed with all her might and spun eight circles at once, releasing her magic power. Blue light like a tsunami covered the entire 9th floor in an instant.

<High Road Cancellation>×100

Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!

The world turned blue and then came back. Finally, Yushin’s Titan magic, which seemed to be old, turned dark and soon disappeared cleanly.

“haha.”

She put her hands on her knees and gasped.

but.

“……senior?”

Yushin did not wake up.

It was the same no matter how long I waited.

“Why aren’t you getting up?”

She came in front of Yushin, crying.

I have crossed over to another world. Nemesis was eliminated. Titan magic was also neutralized.

Didn’t you do everything you were told to do? Didn’t you follow through on your reckless plan?

But why don’t you wake up?

“Are you kidding me? I’m scared enough, so please wake up now. Please…”

She shook Yushin’s shoulder with a desperate look on her face, but it was no use.

The joy disappeared and deep despair took over her mind. She collapsed into Yushin’s arms.

Only the sound of sobbing echoed in the quiet room.

This silence, this silence, was like a nightmare more terrible than anything else in the world.

“…What are you asking for?”

Sadness turned into resentment.

“What are you waiting for?”

She cried out, holding on to the hem of Yushin’s shirt.

“What on earth is best? Don’t even think about what others think! Have you ever thought about how painful it must be for the people left behind after sacrificing you? It’s always so one-sided…!”

At that time, she felt a hand being placed on her shoulder.

Hongyeon raised her head, shedding tears.

“……It’s heavy.”

Before she knew it, Yushin’s blue eyes were staring at her.

“……ah.”

With that unique crooked smile that she loves most in the world.

“Ahh… Ahhhhh!”

Hongyeon trembled and shed a flood of tears.

Yushin lay down and stretched out his hand to smooth her face.

“For some reason, it seems like you’re crying every time I see you.”

She burst into tears and hugged Yushin tightly.

“…….”

Yushin stroked her hair and stared at the ceiling with a blank face.

And then I realized.

That all his plans turned out right.

Hongyeon did it.

Only then did relief flow through my body, my blood circulated, and my senses awakened.

And when he saw the red-haired woman in his arms, his heart began to race.

“Was it hard to get here?”

“……yes.”

“how much?”

“A lot.”

Yushin burst into laughter because the sight of him rubbing his cheek against his chest and whining seemed quite cute.

She raised her head again.

Her golden eyes blinked and looked at Yushin, and Yushin also faced her with eyes that had turned vividly blue.

She laughed with tears streaming down her face. Yushin was also overcome with emotion.

The two people cried and laughed, looked into each other’s eyes, held hands, and put their heads together.

She smiled brightly, and Yushin also smiled. She sang that her vitality exploded and her cells were alive.

Just looking at it made me so happy that my whole body trembled.

“Let’s go back.”

Yushin said. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers and smiled as bright as the sun.

“yes!”

Nemesis was destroyed, and the two were finally reunited at the end of the dimension after passing through Earth.

The first recorded victory of humanity in a battle against a disaster that had been repeated hundreds of times.

At the center was the magic tower lord and the guardian.

“love you.”

“i love you.”

In a room filled with sunlight, the lips of a man and a woman overlapped.
