Cardarno hurriedly pulled the door leading to the tower. There were so many people who usually come and go, so it was strange that the door that was always open was closed.

“What the hell is going on… .”

It wasn't locked. It wasn't that lock magic was on it either.

“Okay.”

Pull the door slowly

It was opened. Something thick inside was pulling the door strongly.

Cuckoo!

“Huh!”

The door swung open with a strong shudder. Cardarno fell backwards and hurriedly got up from his seat.

“No, what the hell is this?”

Inside, sticky stems that looked like spider webs and tentacles stretched out like spider webs and filled the first floor of the tower.

Cardarno hurriedly enchanted his staff

and pushed the tentacles out.

They wriggled back as if alive.

‘Did it flow down from the top of the tower?’

When looking up from the center of the first floor, the top of the tower is visible. Tentacles flowed down from the top of the spiral staircase.

A groan came from somewhere.

Cardarno hurriedly looked around and found a man with tentacles wrapped around a corner, barely breathing.

"Hey!"

When he brought the staff, the tentacles receded as well. It wasn't intelligent, it was more like an instinctive movement.

“Cardarno?”

“Aren’t you a faction?”

He's just a janitor, but after over 20 years of working at the tower, he recognized him.

“How did all this happen?”

"I do not know. I'm just cleaning and they're falling like a waterfall from above. It devoured everything that was alive.”

“Where have all the others gone?”

“Once they absorb all their energy, they eat the body as well.”

Cardarno looked at the tentacles.

They didn't have eyes or noses, but they circled around Cardarno, wriggling like snakes incessantly.

“Let’s go now.”

Cardarno hurriedly sent Pavelung out of the tower and came back.

“Why am I not aiming?”

If you come close, don't use your wand to hit me

Although it contains power, it has not yet tasted bitter.

The tentacles simply retreated when Cardarno approached.

‘This is black magic.’

Intense and unpleasant magic.

It was felt at the top of the tower. Cardarno hurriedly ran up the spiral staircase.

‘What will the master of the tower do until the tower becomes like this… .'

For a moment, he wondered if Master Ma Thap had done something like this, but he shook his head.

He hates black magic more than anyone.

He is close to hating. Rather, it was more plausible to think that the warlock attacked the tower.

“Whoa… Whoo... .”

Normally, I would have taken an elevator that moves with a magic stone, but it has already been eroded by tentacles. He continued to run up the stairs.

‘I want to put on a stamina buff, but I don’t know what will happen in the future, so I have to conserve my mana as much as possible.’

He went up and up again.

He reached the 17th floor and looked at the entrance to his lab."aria!"

Arya got worried and pushed her tentacles back with her wand and went inside her. It was not shown whether she luckily escaped or whether she had been devoured.

The laboratory had already been devastated with tentacles.

"Damn it!"

She ran to the top of her tower to see how this happened. When I got to the 25th floor, my legs were shaking, but I arrived with her magical power intact.

cut profit.

The door opened easily.

When I used the search magic, I felt a person inside. The small and dwarf thing felt like a girl.

"how… .”

Tentacles swayed like the sea splitting. If it attacked like this, it was filled with so much that it was difficult to defend it with magic.

“Huh?”

In the center of the main office of the tower, with the tentacles receding, a girl was sitting and reading her book.

She has a familiar face.

she was aria

"aria?"

Cardarno rubbed his eyes and looked at her. She hoped it wasn't the worst she could think of.

“Oh, Master?”

Arya greeted Kadarno with a seductive smile. She closed the book she was reading and stood up from her seat.

“I am tired of waiting. She was originally going to talk to Ma Thap Joo, but she was so bored that she bit her tongue and killed herself after playing with her.”

“You, you are the aria I know

Isn't it?"

Cardarno's hands trembled. The owner of this deep and endlessly dark magic.

She was not at the level that a genius girl could climb just because she had mastered black magic.

“If I’m not Arya, who do you think she is?”

“… The demon king is coming.”

Cardarno slumped down. Arya then erased her smile from her face as if she was losing steam.

“I was going to play with him for a bit, but he was very quick.”

Arya snapped her finger.

Then Cardarno flashed and pulled in front of her.

“Wow!”

She couldn't lift a single hand.

She weighed 70 kilograms, and her Aria's expression was supremely calm, though she would have had to consume an enormous amount of mana to keep herself up in the air.

"aria! If you are in it, answer me!”

For a moment, Arya's expression went blank, and after a while, her eyes turned into her gunshot eyes.

“Master?”

"aria? Are you out of your mind?”

Arya, who was staring at Cardarno, licked her lips and burst into laughter.

"I knew it?"

Arya chuckled and laughed.

“I was going to try acting, but you were so serious that her laughter burst out.”

“Innoum! What did Arya do?”

“Ah, that child is living happily in the world of hallucinations I am showing you. In the teachings of her kind teacher

She freely pulls out her tower books and studies.”

Cardarno bit her lip. I prayed that this worst situation hadn't been made by Arya.

"no way… .”

"right."

"what?"

“What you think is correct.”

“Did Arya summon you?”

"okay."

“I can’t read all of my magic books, so how can I… .”

For a moment, Cardarno's eyes widened.

“Are you going to look at the basics?”

“Yeah, this kid solved all the rudimentary locks and locks you made just by seeing the basics.”

“I’ve only been away for a week.”

“Giggle. A week is a very long time for a genius girl.”

The Demon King waved his hand.

Cardarno's neck was bent 180 degrees.

dump!

The Demon King stared intently at Cardarno lying on the floor.

“Come back.”

At that one word, all the tentacles that filled the tower were sucked into the demon king's hand.

[The Demon King.]

From the shadow of the demon king, Cerberus, a hell dog with bright red eyes, walked out slowly.

“What’s going on?”

[What are you going to do now?]

“What are you going to do?”

[If you want to rule Middle-earth, make sure that Qaboos shatters... .]

Whoa!

The demon lord struck Cerberus on the head. Cerberus, engulfed in excruciating pain, rolled on the floor and looked at his master.

[why… .]

“I've said it many times. What happens if you keep killing in Middle-earth?”

[As there is darkness, there is light. It was said that when the demon king appears, a hero will appear.]

“You know?”

Killing all the wizards in the tower is also intended to hide his appearance, but rather, the human body is not destroyed.

It has absorbed enough energy to prevent it from happening.

[If you do, your next move will be… .]

Cerberus was very nervous and looked into the eyes of the Demon King.

“The more I use my power, the brighter the light shines. Saving energy to prevent the hero from appearing... .”

[Are you planning to rule the world while saving your power?]

“Does this stop talking again?”

[Hey!]

When the Demon King raised his hand, Cerberus curled his tail and stepped backwards.

“Ugh, who would think that I hit you all the time?”

[…] … .]

hit every day

But he didn't have the courage to tell Cerberus that.

“Life in the demon world is boring. It's been a boring life with no places I haven't been to, nothing I haven't tried, nothing new. If you are bored, would I have hidden my magic and secretly participated in the Demon World Martial Arts Tournament and even won first place?”

[Are you going on a trip?]

"okay."

The Demon King jumped out of the window.

If an ordinary human fell from the 25th floor, it would be devastating, but she fell quickly and landed as light as her feather.

right!

As the demon king snapped his finger, the tower began to collapse. Cerberus renounced the form of a hell dog and transformed into an ordinary horse.

“I’ve been living in the Demon King for 3 years, so now I’m a little wiser?”

[Where would you like to go?]“The most crowded place.”

[I will take you to the city.]

Cerberus, who had turned into a horse, took his place. He took only one leap, but he went about 20 meters.

"do you want to die?"

[Yes?]

“Where are the horses running like this? Are you promoting that the Demon King has appeared?”

[no. sorry.]

Cerberus reduced his speed and began running at the speed of a normal horse.

* * *

About 30 minutes after the two disappeared over the horizon, a portal appeared and three people walked out.

“It must be a girl named Arya that the person we are looking for has entered the tower.”

A lot of time has passed since Hurin first got the information. Because of that, she went to her hometown to find Arya, and then she moved back to the horse tower.

“But the tower wasn’t here, was it?”

Soon-won looked around.

It was clearly here that he received the coordinates from the information guild.

“Maybe they pay for fake coordinates

Did you sell it?”

At that, Hurin shook her head.

“It won’t be. Guild buy a letter of credit. I don't have the guts to deceive a mage who can teleport."

Hurin also looked around in search of the horse tower. Jihee flew into the sky and looked down at the surrounding area.

“Soon-won! excuse me!"

Soon-won ran to where Ji-hee was pointing. It was a vacant lot full of piles of stones.

"ruins? Is it an ancient site?”

“No, look here. Looking at the condition of the book on the stone, it seems like it has been around for a while.”

"no way?"

Soon-won and Jihee looked at each other.

This is because a book of this kind changes its form unrecognizable even after a month when it rains and the wind blows.

“Is this a horse tower?”

“I don’t even think it’s been like this for a while.”

Soon-won waved his hand and the crumbling stones floated into the sky.

Even if 100 ordinary wizards gather

Soon-won did a difficult task alone.

All the collapsed debris was moved to the side, and the objects inside were revealed.

“No one is dead, let alone no one is alive.”

Jihee has completed her search magic.

Hurin activated the inside of the future, but she only saw a black screen and nothing.

“Look here. It’s full of people’s clothes.”

Broken laboratory instruments, books, and various equipment. They didn't move, they collapsed in an earthquake

It didn't even seem like it.

“Wait a minute, there are traces of someone who escaped here recently.”

Soon-won put his hands on the floor and spoke. Hurin looked into the place to see if there were any footprints.

“What did you see?”

“The memory of the earth. It's two people. One ran to the shore and the other rode to the city.”

Soon-won stood up.

“Let’s meet someone near the shore first.”

"okay."

The three of them moved quickly.
