Chapter 116
“With this, the PvP qualifiers are all over!”
The commentator announces that today’s game is over, and the spectators gather in twos and threes and leave the stadium.
“I’m already looking forward to the quarterfinals that will start tomorrow.”
“Because it’s literally an All-Star game. It’s a bit disappointing that Shin Ha-yul is missing from this roster.”
The caster and the two commentators exchanged words and continued the finishing process.
“I am not sad that there is no player Shin Ha-yul. If Shin Ha-yul had participated, I wouldn’t have been able to see Adela Stewart’s game.”
“Oh, that’s it again.”
The commentator grabbed the microphone with an excited expression.
“Adela’s performance today was almost perfect. I never dreamed that I could overwhelm the German team representative this much!”
“Did Adela, like Shin Ha-yul, hide her strength?”
“well. I don’t think there’s any chance of that. It would be understandable if I didn’t participate in the Battle Survival if it was for information control.”
The commentator continued, quickly going through the papers for the previous game.
“Then why did you hide your power?”
“The reason is simple.”
The narrator, who quickly went through all the documents, replied with a confident expression.
“The goal of the Korean team was not to win a gold medal from the beginning.”
“If a gold medal is not your goal, what is your goal?”
“A new record.”
Goosebumps ran through the narrator’s arms.
“Korea’s goal from the beginning was to break the all-time record in the Olympiad.”
Gold medal is standard.
Korea was aiming for the top spot.
“Does that make sense?”
“It’s usually nonsense, but if it’s not that, there’s no need to hide Adela’s skills.”
From the beginning, Korea aimed to win 7 games and break a new record.
For that reason, Adela Stewart’s power was hidden.
Hiding in Shin Ha-yul’s shadow, don’t let anyone mark you.
It stands out for the first time in a person-to-person battle, and puts a wedge into an unwary opponent.
Maybe the Korean team’s strategy was like this.
“… … If so, that’s scary. To think you had everything planned from the beginning.”
“It’s scary. We are like this, but what about the teams against Korea and Shin Ha-yul?”
“… … That must be terrible.”
Caster trembled.
Just imagining it is terrifying.
“Whatever it is, tomorrow’s match will be the highlight of this Olympiad.”
“Yes. Tomorrow’s match result will change the history of the Olympiad.”
Currently, Korea has won four games.
And Shin Ha-yul has two chances to participate.
Shin Ha-yul will win the championship with a high probability in the remaining open raids and labyrinth exploration.
That is to say, as long as Adela wins the interpersonal competition, the Korean team will make a new mark in Olympiad history by winning 7 matches.
So, tomorrow is the highlight.
Tomorrow’s game decides everything.
“I am already looking forward to it. If Korea intentionally hid Adela’s skills, it would mean that Adela’s skills are at a level that can compete with Dahlia and Kyle.”
He hid his skills because he had the confidence to win the match in person.
In other words, if Adela’s skills were intentionally hidden, it means that Adela has skills similar to Kyle and Dahlia.
“What kind of game will be played tomorrow? What is Adela’s true skill level? Your attention is drawn.”
That’s how the narrator continues his closing remarks.
“… … .”
“… … .”
In the corridor leading to the players’ waiting room, a chilly and awkward air settled down.
“Raman commentator says that. what do you think about it?”
Dahlia Salentia.
“Did you really mean a new record from the beginning?”
Kyle Ventia.
“… … .”
and Adela Stewart.
These three met by chance in the hallway.
“Why no answer? Korea is asking if the purpose was to break a new record from the beginning.”
Dahlia chewed and swallowed with an irritated expression.
It was a natural annoyance.
If the commentator is right, it makes sense that Korea took it for granted that they won the gold medal.
In other words, they did not even consider Britain and the United States as rivals.
I’m bound to get annoyed.
“My goal is to break records… … . Ha-yul is kind, but his pride is a little hurt.”
It was the same with Kyle.
As much as I thought of Shin Ha-yul as a rival, it was very embarrassing that I didn’t even think of him as a proper competitor.
“… … .”
Receiving the intense gazes of the two at once, Adela was deeply perplexed inside.
‘… … I didn’t hide my skills.’
The narrator’s words were all nonsense.
Got it completely wrong.
Adela didn’t hide her skills, but her skills suddenly rose yesterday.
It is only speculation that everyone was hiding their skills because the growth rate was so great.
‘I wasn’t aiming to break the record from the beginning.’
Korea’s goal was strictly one gold medal.
I didn’t even think about breaking the record. There was no room for that in the first place.
It’s just that Shin Ha-yul’s skills soared along the way, and the new record was getting closer.
“okay. Doesn’t it mean you’re not denying it?”
Unspoken said yes.
Not saying anything like that means affirmation.
In fact, there is no way to deny it for reasons such as leaking strategies, so we are just sticking to silence.
“good. It’s fun. It’s very funny.”
Dahlia glared at Adela with ferocious eyes like a ferocious leopard.
“I will never lose to you.”
Then, with eyes burning with a desire to compete, he turned around and walked towards his waiting room.
“I have one more reason why I can’t lose.”
So was Kyle.
He muttered that with a beast-like expression wounded in his pride and turned away.
“I hope to see you in the quarterfinals tomorrow.”
With her body half turned, she glared coldly at Adela. Walked into her own waiting room.
“… … .”
Left alone, Adela looked blankly at the backs of the two as they walked away.
‘I just didn’t answer anything to prevent leakage of information about the elixir and strategy… … .’
Something made me feel like a bad guy.
* * *
after that.
I left the messy room behind and was assigned a new room.
I took the two books and artifacts that I had kept in the magic safe and moved to the new room.
‘It’s a bit inconvenient because I don’t have a phone.’
I haven’t found my phone yet.
It’s probably stuck somewhere in a messy room. I’ll be able to find it by tomorrow or so.
The hardness of smartphones these days is enough to block bullets, so there is no need to worry about breaking them.
If you sort it out, maybe you’ll find it someday. I just have to wait quietly.
‘Then apply the alarm magic again… … .’
I put a spell on the doorbell to make Mimir’s book tremble.
‘done.’
With this, you can immediately know when someone visits the room.
Right after that, I went straight into Mimir’s Book.
“Come on.”
Mimir greeted me.
For some reason I am not reading the book.
“You came just as expected.”
I guess I was expecting it to take this long to weave the circle of truth.
So it must have been the cover of the book.
Mimir came towards me with a light smile.
Then he puts his hand on my chest.
“The circle of truth. It’s perfectly positioned.”
Then he lightly punched me in the chest.
“congratulations. With this, you are finally a 5th circle user.”
“thank you.”
Mimir laughed bashfully.
“Now, until the 5th Circle Master, it’s really not long.”
“I know.”
“Quickly pass the fifth test page. Then I’ll solve everything you’re curious about.”
If you become a 5th Circle Master, Mimir’s ban will be lifted.
There is nothing you can’t tell me, and you can confide everything.
real magic.
Master’s Robe.
bale stall.
and so on.
You get to know things that have always been in doubt.
“okay. Even if I’m just curious, I’ll try to get through it as soon as possible.”
“huh. If you’re a successor, you’ll be able to pass quickly.”
Mimir looked at me kindly.
“Then they said that the horns were also thinned out. Shall I bring out some books on using the Circle of Truth?”
“That’s later. Before that, I want to ask you something.”
“What do you want to ask?”
“About Adela.”
“Why Adela Stewart? Have you had any problems after eating God’s grace?”
“hmm. Should I call this a problem? … .”
“?”
Mimir tilted his head as if he meant something.
“Didn’t I say that the adaptation period for taking God’s Grace is 12 hours at the most?”
“huh.”
“But it took about 15 hours and 30 minutes for Adela to consume God’s grace and end the mana cycle.”
“… … 15 hours and 30 minutes?”
Mimir’s eyes widened.
“Are you sure?”
“uh. Are you sure.”
“Then is it really a great talent? 15 hours… … .”
Mimir stuck out his tongue.
“If that’s true, the heir has really gained a great helper. Even in my time, there was only one mage with that level of talent.”
“Who is that one?”
“Someone you know.”
“If anyone I know… … .”
There are only two people I know of from the past.
Ray Bell bitenor.
and Elena Law Greenwood.
Among them, Master’s talent will exist on a higher level.
All that remains… … .
“Miss Elena?”
By the elimination method, it becomes Miss Elena.
“that’s right. It’s Elena.”
It was also Elena.
“Helena didn’t consume God’s grace, but if she did, it would have been well over 15 hours. She was one of Ray’s greatest talents.”
Recalling the majesty of Miss Elena, who teased Drake lightly in the past, I understood.
“If there had been divine grace in that era, and if Elena had ingested it, she would probably have been able to compete with Ray for some sums.”
“Is it great to compete for how many points?”
“Great place. At the time, Elena couldn’t even last one match.”
“… … 1 joint?”
My pupils dilated.
That Elena-sama couldn’t even survive one match.
“It means that Ray’s power was so far-fetched.”
“That’s about it.”
I think I need to renew my evaluation of Master once again.
He was flying in space, not in the sky.
“Anyway, Adela Stewart has become such a great wizard.”
The owner of a talent that can surpass Elena-sama.
“The greatest wizard of that era became your absolute ally. I need to know the fate of the true heir. How can such a talented person be so close by?”
Mimir stuck out his tongue again.
“So you’re saying there’s nothing wrong with that?”
“huh. No problem.”
Mimir confirmed.
“okay. That’s it.”
I was wondering what to do if you get into trouble after taking the elixir I gave you.
Fortunately, that’s not the case.
I was relieved.
“Then do you have any more questions? Bring me the book on the circle of truth?”
That’s when Mimir got up from his seat.
“no. Sorry, but I have one more question.”
“Are you still there? What?”
“About the Book of Idred.”
“As for the Book of Idred… … . ah. You came to see me before you came.”
Mimir sat back in his seat with an expression that he noticed something.
“Are you talking about updating the Book of Idred?”
“uh.”
The book of Idred is structured in such a way that a new page is updated every time I get an achievement.
When it reached the 3rd circle, it was updated to page 81.
When it reached the 4th circle, it was updated to page 140.
And this time, it becomes the 5th circle, and it has been updated to page 220.
And after page 220, all the pages of the test where the magic circle is drawn.
that means this.
“Isn’t it written in Idred’s book about things after the 6th circle?”
It was said that Idred’s book did not contain any information after the 6th circle.
