082
Second day of Olympiad.
Today, the Korean team has a total of three siege schedules.
One at 10, one at 2:25, and one at 5:30.
It will be the round of 32, round of 16, and round of 8 in order.
And the current time is 2:30 PM.
We won easily in the round of 32 and were on the way to the round of 16.
“It’s so easy that I wonder if it can be this easy. To think that the world of Germany was helpless like this… … .”
The opponent in the round of 16 is Germany.
Germany is also a country that belongs to the strong team axis like Italy, but it was not our team’s opponent.
“What does it mean to be strong? It’s a messy mess.”
“… … Didn’t you ever think that your strategy for turning Germany into a mess was strange?”
Sunchan looks at me with eyes that see monsters.
It’s a look of admiration.
Since everything is going according to my word, it is natural for him to react like that.
“Did I do anything today?”
Today I just stood still in my camp and did nothing. It’s just that Germany is left alone.
“right. Didn’t do anything today. what you did today.”
Sunchan laughed.
let’s not talk is the expression
“Anyway, our Shin Ha-yul leader’s advanced decoy strategy is working properly.”
“It should be. That’s why I put on a show like that yesterday.”
Of course, the reason why the German team is desperately trying to survive is because of me.
Following the opening ceremony performance, I changed my strategy and acted sluggishly, wary of my ability to crush the Italian team alone.
The result is this.
Even though I and even Sun-chan are not moving, the tide is tilting towards us.
No, it’s not at a slanted level, but it can be said that it’s overwhelming.
“But can I really do nothing? If we think that the other side is a match between judges and raid Hee-yoon sunbaenim together… … .”
Just like me and Sunchan defending Jinji.
Currently, the German team is also defending the position with a leader and one of his assistants.
If these two join the battlefield where Jin Hee-yoon, Adela, and Kang Shin-woo are fighting, the three are in danger.
Sunchan is talking about that.
“are you okay. If that’s the case, we can join. The battlefield is not that far away.”
At that time, well, this side just needs to move.
“And well, as for the other teams, the German team won’t move.”
“… … why?”
“Because a leader’s personality is so prudent.”
To put it mildly, be careful.
To put it badly, I’m afraid.
With that kind of personality, they probably want to avoid interfering in this situation and creating a melee.
Unless we move, the other side won’t move either.
“So you’re saying we really just have to stay still like this?”
“If our main force starts to be pushed back in a 3:3 battle, then we have to move.”
“Isn’t that what you mean?”
Sunchan smiled confidently.
“Because there’s no way Hee-yoon sunbaenim will lose.”
“It is.”
A collaboration between Jin Hee-yoon and Kang Shin-woo, led by Adela.
Among the combinations we have prepared, this trio, which boasts the strongest attack power, has a 0% chance of losing to a German team without a leader.

[7 games in the round of 16]
[Korea (win) VS Germany (lose)]
As expected, we won easily.
At 3:3, our team overpowered, and at 5:2, the German team was pressed.
The German team could not resist and lost.
“Big. bored This is the team, this is me.”
Hee-yoon sunbaenim said with a very recalled expression.
It seems that the aftermath of the excitement still remains, and the adrenaline seems to be gushing out.
“Sunchan. Is there any reaction on Korean social media?”
“Yes. May I recite it for you?”
Soonchan was excited and read SNS. All have only good reviews.
I thought Shin Ha-yul was a one-man team, but the other members were also quite good, to the fact that it would be good to look forward to Korea’s performance this year.
There wasn’t a single really bad sound.
If I had to say it was a bad sound, would it be the level of concern?
“The bad comments… … There really isn’t. amazingly.”
“No. Isn’t it unique to our country? It’s like an angel to young prospects working hard overseas.”
Jin Hee-yoon crossed her legs and replied with a smile.
“Aren’t you really going to win a gold medal like this?”
“Uh huh. You still lack faith. If our Ha-yul said you can pick it up, you can pick it up!”
“Go scold!”
The seniors joked around and laughed at each other. The atmosphere is quite nice.
Of course, a good atmosphere does not only bring about beneficial effects as a team.
The increased tension naturally leads to a lack of tension, and soon converges with carelessness and mistakes.
As a leader, you need to calm down this excessively high tension.
It was time to start thinking like that.
“Everyone, don’t get too excited. The Olympiad has just entered its second day.”
Kang Shin-woo stepped out before I could act. Kang Shin-woo seemed to have the same thoughts as me.
“Besides, the opponent in the quarterfinals is none other than England… … . Kyle Bentiada. It’s not a situation to be excited about.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
Everyone was silent at Kang Shin-woo’s words. Everyone seemed to realize that their tension was higher than necessary.
“sorry. I’ll focus.”
Jin Hee-yoon calmed down with a deep breath.
So did others.
It became a calm and serious expression, as if it had never been excited.
‘As expected.’
10 people who are perfectly captured mentally as well as magically.
To say that the team’s level of completion is close to perfection is to say it based on these things.
Very satisfied.
“now. But we don’t have to take it too seriously. Would Kyle Ventia be the problem? I have.”
I eased the somewhat stiff atmosphere.
“That’s right.”
“I don’t worry about you. You’re afraid I’ll make a mistake.”
“Ah, admit it. Hee-yoon, I think you’re really making a mistake.”
“huh. Shut up Jinseok.”
The atmosphere was good, but not exhilarating. It became just the right air.
With this momentum, there would be no problem with either the British team or the American team.
I was so sure.

5:25.
5 minutes before the game starts.
[Quarterfinal 3rd game]
[Korea VS England]
As the championship candidates faced each other, the stadium was noisy enough to be nothing more.
“Who will win this time?”
“hey. Don’t you know the history and traditions of England? Of course England wins.”
“You sound like history and tradition. Didn’t you see Shin Ha-yul during the performance? Destroying five Italian teams alone? Of course, the Korean team wins.”
“Would Kyle have done that?”
“Do you want to bet?”
“Should I bet?”
This kind of scene was unfolding all over the audience.
Someone made a dinner bet, someone made a light night bet, and someone else bet money through an illegal activity called Toto.
“Who do you think will win?”
And here, in the VVIP room, there were people who placed bets.
“Of course, our Kyle wins.”
“Hayul-kun will win.”
The masters of the Red, Green, and Blue Mage Towers. There are not even 100 magicians in the world who belong to the 8th circle, and they are engaged in a childish war of nerves.
“Kuk-kuk. Seeing this from a third person’s point of view, it couldn’t be more fun.”
This match is Korea vs England.
The red mage lord is an outsider.
Thanks to this, you can enjoy the game purely without any worries.
The war of nerves between the two tower masters is also quite interesting.
“Red Mage Tower Master. What do you think?”
“James. What is your opinion?”
But that’s only James’ illusion.
I couldn’t be an outsider so long as I was caught between the two.
The two asked James’ opinion at the same time.
“uh… … .”
James blurted out with a puzzled look on his face.
You want me to side with one of them in this situation?
that’s a bit difficult
“I won’t put it in my mind, so feel free to say it. evaluate it soberly. Who do you think will win?”
Min Ga-yeon, the green magic tower owner, smiled and asked.
He said he would not keep it in his heart, but it was clear that he would keep it in his heart unconditionally.
For reference, Min Ga-yeon’s aftermath is not very good.
“that’s right. You can speak comfortably.”
Kim Kang-in smiled as if he really didn’t want to keep it in his heart.
In fact, I wouldn’t even take it to heart.
“Okay.”
James let out a small groan.
This really bothers me.
As I thought about that, I let out a small sigh.
“okay. Just speaking purely on my personal judgment?”
“uh.”
James opened his mouth slowly, scanning the faces of each team member in turn.
“I think the Korean team has an advantage.”
At those words, Min Ga-yeon’s expression rotted, and Kim Kang-in’s expression brightened even more.
“… … The reason is?”
It was the facial expressions and gestures that anyone could see clearly had in mind.
James let out a small sigh with an expression like ‘I knew it would be like this’.
“Let’s be honest. Green Mage Tower You know it deep down. who has the advantage.”
“… … .”
Min Ga-yeon was silent.
I was stabbed in the middle.
“The current Korean team, no. Shin Ha-yul’s strength has surpassed not only Kyle, but even our Dahlia. The skills of the other team members are also not very good. In terms of team power, no team currently surpasses the Korean team.”
James recalled the battle between the Italian team and the Korean team yesterday.
Shin Ha-yul who continuously uses magic that exceeds the power of the 5th circle magic.
If Shin Ha-yul and Dahlia fight 1:1, can they win?
How much more so if you start using circle 6 magic from there?
The current Dahlia cannot win.
“I don’t know if it’s just magic output, but Shin Ha-yul even has a magical eye comparable to that of the blue mage lord.”
The detection ability is also superior to the Shinha rate.
“It’s hard to strategically stand on top because you have a good brain.”
Here, Shin Ha-yul has the upper hand even in the strategic aspect.
All indicators point to the dominance of Shinha-yul.
“This is why I said that Shin Ha-yul is advantageous.”
No matter how much my baby looks cuter and more amazing, there is such a thing as a degree.
The current Shin Ha-yul is the best power that anyone can see.
“… … They only say the right things, so you can’t even refute them.”
Min Ga-yeon let out a small sigh.
Of course Min Ga-yeon knows what James said.
Even if I don’t have to explain at length, the moment the composition of the 6th circle versus the 5th circle is established, the result is obvious.
“okay. I’ll admit it. I pretended to be strong. Shin Ha-yul is a bit more advantageous.”
Min Ga-yeon’s hands were slightly raised to sign the surrender.
“No matter what, the 6th circle crossed the line.”
If it was a 5th circle versus a 5th circle, there would be a win anyway.
Shin Ha-yul is currently in the 6th circle.
Seung-gi is leaning towards Shin Ha-yul, no matter who sees it.
“hmm.”
The blue mage tower let out a small moan. I couldn’t believe that Shin Ha-yul’s strategy would fool these two tower owners.
‘You mean you’ve been thinking about this plan since the first time you saw The Four Seasons?’
I’m sorry, but it’s really scary.
“Isn’t Kangin a little too much for you too? Shouldn’t you have tipped me off if it was the 6th circle?”
“Ah, I admit that too. Is there anything like this between us?”
The two looked at Kim Kang-in with a sad expression. She laughed as if Kim Kang-in was in trouble.
“hmm. Can you make me one promise?”
Kangin Kim suddenly said something out of the blue.
“promise? What promise?”
“What I am being told here is a promise not to tell anyone.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
In response to Kim Kang-in’s serious expression and words, the two horse pagoda owners’ expressions also became serious.
“good. I swear by the name of the master of the mage and mana. I won’t say anything I hear here, let alone Kyle, to my secretary.”
As if Min Ga-yeon realized something, she recited an oath.
“me too. I swear on the honor and mana of the Red Mage Tower.”
So was James.
Kim Kang-in laughed with a satisfied expression at the oath of the two.
The honor of the owner of the tower, as well as the oath of mana. It was the best promise these two could offer.
“great. Then I will tell you.”
Kim Kang-in turned his gaze back to the monitor.
The time floating on the monitor is 5 hours 29 minutes 43 seconds.
Now, in 17 seconds, the match begins.
“First of all, Hayul’s level is not the 6th circle.”
Kim Kang-in explained Shin Ha-yul’s strategy to the two tower owners.
Four Seasons, a state-of-the-art artifact made using Element Manalight.
A tactic that used the four seasons for a performance and aroused everyone’s misunderstanding.
On the first day, Shin Ha-yul explained all the meanings of his actions in turn.
And all talk is over.
“… … Was that all a strategy?”
Min Ga-yeon burst into laughter as if it were absurd.
“A contact lens type artifact made using Element Manalight. I got this right You got it right.”
James groaned, covering his eyes with his palms.
“But, if Kangin is right… … .”
A tear flowed from Min Ga-yeon’s eyes.
“In a 1:1 battle, our Kyle could win?”
“yes. Yes. Ha Yul is not a member of the 6th circle.”
And at that moment, cheers were heard from the crowd.
Right after the game started, the images of the two aces facing each other were broadcast on camera.
―It sticks right from the start of the game! Shin Ha-yul vs. Kyle Bentia!
The emcee’s excited voice heightened the current situation.
