Magician Julben Havellion.
A wizard who is the head of a school and is respected by countless crafting wizards.
Sweat beaded on his forehead.
It was not such an easy task.
Interfering with the laws of the spiritual world.
“Shit.”
The man in the robe muttered as he looked at the jewels on the workbench.
The jewel on the workbench was given to him by an old man he met shortly after he came to this world.
It is safe to say that it is a server and system in the spiritual world that is now called Ghostbusters.
“Where is it wrong?”
Inside this little jewel, almost infinite magic circuits are intertwined and intertwined.
The man analyzed and studied this, developed his skills, and modified the circuits he identified one by one to create the current Ghost Busters.
But…
“…isn’t this way impossible?”
After that, the man who had been infusing mana into jewels and modifying circuits for a long time sighed as if he had both hands and feet lifted.
In fact, it was kind of funny to even feel regret.
What couldn’t be done for decades can’t suddenly be done in a few days.
However, the biggest achievement recently was updating the nicknames of players who entered the anonymous chat room so that they could be secretly viewed with administrator rights.
Gee ying.
Then the personal pager vibrated.
I didn’t even have to look to see who the contact was.
“Yes, Soul Queens. Were there any issues with me?”
[Yes… I haven’t heard anything about Havellion-nim yet.]
“…I see.”
The man felt annoyed and relieved at the same time.
This is because the well-hidden identity for nearly 20 years has been revealed in a very unexpected place.
“Please keep an eye on that part. We need to do a good job of suppressing these rumors in the beginning before they grow. I will continue to look up numbers so that I can find out the identity of other members.”
[yes. And… I’m sorry.]
“…….”
The man inside the crystal ball kept his mouth shut at the woman’s apology.
It was because there were no words to say that there was nothing to be sorry for even with empty words.
“Then… if you have any issues later, please contact me again.”
[Yes, take a break.]
The man who finished contacting him soon headed back to the workbench.
And…
‘I think it will be possible to reverse trace by changing the circuit only by saving the location information when connected to the server…’
The man analyzed the jewel’s complex internal circuit. went out
As always, the answer was supposed to be inside this jewel.
***
Smart.
The moment I heard a knock, I jumped to my feet.
‘…Who is it?’
I don’t know.
Erwen doesn’t have to knock, so I’m guessing he’s an outsider…….
An outsider knocks on the front door, not the front door?
‘Nimiral.’
Holding her breath and lowering her posture, she approached the doorway as quietly as possible.
and that moment.
drooling drooling.
There was a rattling sound from the doorknob, and then the lock was unlocked.
profit.
A door that opens slowly.
I clenched my fists with the intention of overpowering whoever the opponent was, but after confirming the opponent, I stiffened.
“…Fortunately you were inside.”
“Amelia…!”
“Sir……! I should have told you not to rush at me suddenly…!”
no, i’m glad
feel sorry for people
“…Come in quickly.”
“Excuse me…….”
Amelia seemed to hate the reunion hug, so she skipped it and hurriedly entered the house.
It wasn’t just one or two questions.
However, if you ask me in order first…
“How did you know I was here?”
“…Waiting in front of the bank, he saw the fairy and followed him.”
“Huh? But why is it only now……”
“Because there was no time to approach.”
Eh?
So, he always went out during the day to go to the Holy Land?
When I said this, Amelia shook her head.
“It can’t be. She’s been around the house all along.”
Goosebumps ran down his spine.
“…Well then, you haven’t been to the Holy Land before?”
“Couldn’t it be… didn’t you know?”
“…….”
“But lately, he’s been away somewhere to see if he’s changed his mind. I was late watching him for a few days, wondering if it was a trap.”
Still, the words put my mind at ease.
If it’s a change of heart, it’s probably referring to the conversation we had a while ago.
“So… what happened with the blood spirit?
“Ah, that worked out fine.”
I briefly summarized what happened with Erwen and told only the important parts.
Amelia looked a little surprised.
“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a demon or not… It’s a way of thinking that’s not like an explorer from the ground.”
“He’s been a little weird. Maybe it would have been hard to think of him that way in the past.”
“Well, I don’t think so.”
“huh?”
“Isn’t this the woman who didn’t stop avenging you even after the demon was announced?
Well, maybe.
“Anyway, I’ve nailed it down that it’s not an evil spirit. In case you don’t know what will happen later.”
Amelia laughed.
“Then am I the only one in this world who knows who you are?”
“No, there is one more.”
“…Didn’t Mischa Karlstein say he didn’t know you were an evil spirit?”
“It’s a different person. He’s not even a local in the first place. He’s from my hometown.”
There was no reason to hide it, and there was plenty of room for it to become a variable later, so I told you about Lee Baek-ho.
However, the reaction was a little strange.
“Lee Baek-ho…? He’s from your hometown?”
It’s like hearing the name of someone you know well.
Well, come to think of it, there were quite a few kids at the round table who knew about Lee Baek-ho.
Originally, I was going to ask Erwen subtly, but I think it would be better to just get the information from him.
“Is that a name you know?”
“…Everyone knows.”
“Well, you may have heard of it since you came to this time zone much earlier than I did. Oh, but how long have you been back?”
“It was two years ago.”
“Oh, then you’ve been there one-on-one—”
“But it doesn’t matter when I came back. It was a long time ago that I knew him.”
huh?
Did you know Lee Baek-ho before that?
As I stared at her as if she wanted a more detailed explanation, Amelia opened her mouth.
“Remember when I said I teamed up with a demon for over a year?”
Uh……
“That evil spirit was Lee Baek-ho.”
what is this kid
There is nowhere else not to wear it.
***
Amelia met Lee Baek-ho about five years ago.
It is said that he approached on purpose under the orders of the castle lord.
At the time, there was a suspicion attached to him that it might be an evil spirit, and it was to confirm this.
After all, if it’s an evil spirit, it’ll be possible to appease it.
“Explorers who can use auras were rare, so it wasn’t difficult to join his team. I spent about a year in his team.”
Amelia said that it was during that time that she obtained [Self-replicating] in the Doppelganger Forest and cleared the White Temple on the 3rd floor…
and somehow she knew all of the Hidden Pieces.
If I went with Lee Baek-ho, it would have been worth it.
“So? So how did it go?”
“It’s nothing. After a year, I couldn’t find any clues, so Seongju also lost interest, and I got another mission and left the team with an excuse. And… I heard about it later.”
“Is that news?”
“I don’t know the details either. Because the royal family thoroughly covered up the incident at the time. It was only that my identity was exposed due to the betrayal of a colleague, and that many people died in the labyrinth that day. That was all I could find out from the background investigation.”
Afterwards, Amelia said that the royal family destroyed Lee Baek-ho’s data and controlled information for years, causing his existence to be forgotten in the city.
One question here.
“But how did you know the name Lee Baek-ho?”
“That was relatively recent. Maybe they really fell out with the royal family, but these days they show up everywhere and introduce themselves as Lee Baek-ho. Oh, by the way, in the past, they either used a pseudonym that he used or called him just like everyone else. .”
That’s right…….
I never thought there would be people around me who knew about Lee Baek-ho’s past.
“How was he before?”
“Well, we weren’t very close. I didn’t like such light words and actions. Instead, except for me, the rest of us were very close.”
“Are you close?”
“Yeah, just like the teams you created.”
Out of curiosity, I heard a lot of rumors related to Lee Baek-ho, but the more I listened, the more strange I felt.
“What? If you take that guy out of the team, all of them are women? Do you even go out with all of them? Wow, what labyrinth did this bastard set up a harem in?
” Isn’t that the same?”
what is he
Mr. Bear is standing firm.
Besides, during the days of Team Banpun, everyone except Misha was male.
“If that’s the case. Let’s do something like that.”
“It’s not like that, it’s true. I only looked at my ability and aptitude, so it became like this before I knew it, and I never saw it as a love object—” “There’s
no excuse. I don’t care at all.”
“……?”
“Isn’t the country where you live in the first place different? I don’t know what Korea is like, but that part must have been similar to the aristocratic culture here.”
No, Korea is normally monogamous…
What does he think of Korea?
For some reason, even if Lee Baek-ho and I ruined the image of Korea, it seems like we ruined it, but we decided not to make further excuses.
Because it’s not that important.
Now that you’ve heard enough of the rumors, it’s time to move on to the next topic.
“Amelia. More than that, what was the message you left at the bank?”
“…What do you mean? Just as written?”
“Ah, the last part of the letter Erwen gave me was torn.
“…That’s right.”
When the topic soon turned to my big precious hammer, Amelia showed a visibly flustered look.
“Somehow, he didn’t tell me about it…
I wonder if it was because he couldn’t read it…” Farewell—”
“Hammer farewell,”
Amelia cut
me
off
sternly
. ……”
Haa…….
***
Amelia and I.
A heavy silence fell between the two of us.
Amelia, who has always been a confident woman, was avoiding my eyes, as if she was aware of her mistakes, and eventually spoke first. It
was
I who
opened
it
.
No, I borrowed it as collateral.”
Ugh, that. As
I glared at it, Amelia coughed.
“But you have to point out the wrong part properly so there won’t be any problems later—” ”
Okay, just answer the questions I ask. Why are you selling my hammer… or did you borrow the money as collateral? For what the hell?”
“…to protect you when you return.”
Hu knew this too.
I don’t know what, but there was a good reason why I had to—
“…I bought the essence at the auction house.”
“….. …….What?”
After a long silence, she finally regained her senses and opened her mouth, and Amelia urgently continued her words.
“Don’t worry. You can get it back as long as you pay back the money by the repayment date.”
That word brought me to my senses a little.
Well, if you need money urgently, you can.
At a glance, it looks like you used this money to get Twin Hydra’s [Double Rule]. “…When is the repayment date?”
”
In two months.”
”
…Money to repay?
” ”
“Then, do you plan to raise money?”
“…Yes.”
Yes, it’s in the past tense.
The quest was added while you were busy.
