Chapter 795 – 795. Meeting of the Elders of the Mage Tower (3)
“Huh… Unbelievable…”
The wizards who confirmed the contents of the blueprint burst into admiration as one.
The idea of making jewels that are very good at transmitting and responding to magic with magic stones was not surprising since it had been tried in the previous Mage Tower, but what the wizards admired was the way to make up for the problems that arose in the process.
A huge magic circle and countless spells tightly engraved in it.
In the process of receiving a large amount of mana and transforming into a magic crystal, the magic formulas that complement the durability are all rational, efficient, and even elaborate.
The magicians marveled as if looking at the crystallization of art that had no loopholes and was woven to the extent that it could be called perfection.
“This… Really you… ?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
The eyes of the wizards, who had asked the question they had heard many times, no longer looked suspicious.
The eyes of wizards now are closer to the eyes of awe looking at the wise man who is beginning to show new knowledge.
How could he have created such a magic circle with such thoughts and ideas?
The fact that it was a feat created by someone who was not even a magician made him even more admirable.
There were no wizards who doubted that Eun-hyeon had made these blueprints any more.
“This part! Why did you use this technique in this part?”
“That part…”
Eunhyeon answered the questions about the numerous spells drawn on the blueprint without hesitation.
Why did you draw that formula in that part, the advantages and side effects that arise from that, and what other spells had to be used to cover the side effects, etc.
No one doubted him for his skillful answers to the questions asked.
“Oh my goodness…”
Seeing Eunhyeon leisurely answering the barrage of questions full of curiosity from the wizards, the greensmith laughed.
‘This man. Is it better than I thought?’
Although not a wizard, he has great knowledge about magic and has a flexible mindset that others don’t have.
‘The face is quite handsome too.’
I didn’t like it, but the more I look at it, the more my eyes keep going.
‘I know he is the witch’s husband. Hmm…’
Is it inevitable as a human being to think, “Maybe even myself?”
Above all, the greensmith was interested in the fact that Illyana was the chosen man.
“I don’t think she would have chosen a man based solely on his face or his knowledge of magic…”
What part were you attracted to?
He wanted to know more about that part.
“Yes?”
“Nothing.”
The green tower wizard in the seat next to him heard Elder Green’s murmurs and put on a puzzled expression, but when Elder Green blurted it out, the green tower wizard tilted his head but didn’t pay much attention.
‘Well, you’ll find out later, right?’
While Green Elder was thinking that to himself, the negotiations between Eunhyeon and the Mage Tower went more smoothly than expected.
“Then… 300 platinum coins. Are you sure you hand over these blueprints and manufacturing methods?”
“Of course.”
Eunhyun shrugged his shoulders and readily accepted the offer.
The wizards who attended the meeting all made a dubious expression.
I didn’t doubt him, but the blueprint is worth well over 300 platinum coins.
This proposal means that they will give up all profits and rights generated through magic crystals produced from blueprints.
While 300 platinum coins isn’t a small amount of money lying around on the street, it’s far less than the amount of money you can make using these blueprints.
But is there any special way to pass it on yourself?
“Then how about the payment…”
“Why don’t you pay by investing 100 platinum coins in each tower to be fair?”
“Nonsense! The red tower must have a lot of budget, but we and the blue tower don’t have that much money! How much more, not 100 gold coins, but 100 platinum coins!”
The wizard of the green tower denied the proposal by causing a match, but the red tower was also not very happy.
“Have you no conscience? Are you sure you intend to put all that burden on the Red Tower?”
Since there is no other issue as sensitive as the money issue, another noisy scuffle broke out between the wizards of each of the three towers.
“The amount is 100 coins from each Green Tower. I’ll take it from the Red Tower for 200 coins.”
“… What?”
The noisy scuffle suddenly stopped, and all eyes gathered toward Eunhyeon.
The Red Tower Wizard, who seemed to have heard a ridiculous story, protested.
“No, that is nonsense! Why did the enemy tower get 200 coins… ! Not even a blue tower pays for it!”
“There are two reasons. The first is that my wife, Illyana, belongs to the Blue Tower. If you decline this offer, I will provide these blueprints only to the blue tower.”
“…”
Illyana was reinstated as a mage of the blue tower, and it wouldn’t be a problem even if she revealed the blueprints in it.
However, the fact that only the Blue Tower enjoys the benefits that can arise from it means that the power structure within the Magic Tower is tilting towards the Blue Tower in an instant.
I don’t know what the green tower is like, but it’s a situation that can never be welcomed as a red tower that is showing the greatest prestige.
“If you want to give benefits to the Blue Tower, you should only receive 100 and 200 coins from the Green and Red Towers, respectively! Why are you putting more pressure on the enemy towers!”
“That is the second reason.”
Eunhyun laughed and pointed her finger at the red tower’s magician, the red elder.
“My wife is. He really hates the enemy elder.”
“A witch? What… !”
“No. Our youngest.”
Isn’t there another wife of Eunhyun who visited the magic tower besides Illyana?
Besides, as soon as Erin, another wife of Eunhyun, visited this magic tower, she had an happening with the red tower.
The Red Tower wizards’ complexions turned pale as they understood the thoughtful intentions of repaying the Red Tower for her disrespect to Erin.
It was a back end full of personal feelings, but I couldn’t think of a way to refuse it.
“Hey, you’re cheeky.”
The enemy elder snorted.
“If you came out like that, did you think I would apologize and ask for forgiveness?”
“Could it be?”
Eunhyun shrugged her shoulders and put on a sly expression.
Eunhyeon didn’t even think that the red elder would apologize for this level of retaliation.
“Erin will not raise her to be a wizard. And… Please stop arguing with Illyana for ridiculous reasons.”
“…”
The red elder’s forehead narrowed and he faced Eunhyeon and her face.
It was a warning.
“You need to be a little more careful about managing the people under you who are obstructing the atmosphere inside the Mage Tower.”
The wizards in the red tower flinched at Eunhyeon’s open words.
It is already openly happening that some of the magicians of the Red Tower are arrogantly despising and laughing at the magicians of other powers with the power of the Red Tower at their back.
And rumors of the happening between the Red Tower and Erinn this time had already spread inside the Magic Tower.
In fact, Eun-hyeon put the 100 platinum coins he was supposed to receive from the blue tower over the red tower and held him accountable.
“Kuk-kuk.”
The enemy elder laughed.
Eunhyeon had no intention of accepting an apology.
He was just getting paid for the rudeness he had done to his wives.
No apology needed.
However, I will pay for it, so be prepared if something like this happens in the future.
It’s not that different from saying that.
“Okay. Give it up.”
“Now, Elder!?”
“Done. I’ll fill in about 100 platinum coins with my own money.”
It was quite a painful expense even with his personal possessions, but the Red Elder offered 100 coins without hesitation.
To think that a being who dared to give such a warning to himself, who could be proud of having the strongest authority and power within the Mage Tower, appeared.
He seemed to like his arrogant attitude very much.
“It was a great invention.”
One thing that was unexpected was the short compliment he gave to Eun-hyeon as he left the meeting room.
Not only Eunhyun, but most of the wizards in the conference room looked surprised.
“Oh, this can’t be… ?”
“The enemy elder praised… ?”
After the meeting, the inside of the meeting room was filled with a strange silence different from the first.
“You look surprised.”
“Yes. What…”
To be honest, I didn’t expect to be praised, so Eunhyeon also put on a shy expression.
“Don’t be too upset. It’s true that I’ve been rude to your wives, but when it comes to magic, I’m a most honest friend. Only… It’s just a lot of self-righteousness.”
The reason why Illyana left this mage tower and returned to her mage tower casually was because she could not accept that she thought of the mage tower, her pride, as a light place where she could leave and return at any time.
The reason why she used her energy so much to take Erin as her disciple must have been because she had a strong desire to raise her, who was no different from her gemstone, as her mage.
The Red Elder is infinitely self-righteous and selfish, but in the field of magic, he is an infinitely sincere wizard.
As they had lived together in this mage tower since her youth, Aden, who had a bitter smile, defended the enemy elder like that.
“But if you cross the line, I’m not going to stand still.”
“That is normal. Are you really okay anyway?”
“What do you mean?”
“How to make magic stones. Wasn’t it necessary to pass it on so cheaply? If you file a patent and claim the right, a lot of money from the Mage Tower will come into your pocket.”
“Money is still a lot. Rather, it is more troublesome to go through the necessary procedures to obtain profits while claiming the patent right. Furthermore…”
Eunhyeon quietly left behind the wizards who slowly left the conference room.
“Even if they know how to make them anyway, they can’t make magic stones right away.”
The design drawings and the handed-down manufacturing method itself are flawless and flawless.
However, isn’t it possible to arrive at the correct answer just because everyone knows the mathematical formula and knows how to solve it?
In fact, in the process of producing magic stones, no matter how perfect the design and formula were, as Eunhyeon passed on, it would be impossible to succeed in producing them unless you had amazing senses and calculation abilities that surpass ordinary wizards like Erin or Illyana.
In fact, it was because of Illyana and Erin that I was able to successfully create the magic crystal and the Philosopher’s Stone.
“He is a bad person.”
A woman interrupted Aden and Eunhyun’s conversation.
She was Elder Green, who had not yet left the meeting room and was observing Eun-hyeon.
“You didn’t tell me even though you knew that?”
“Haven’t the other wizards already noticed?”
What Eunhyeon sold was not only the method of producing the highest quality magic stone, but also the success story.
From the beginning, he did not guarantee that the production of magic stones would be successful.
“He is a mischievous person. But that part… It might be okay.”
“Yes?”
Eunhyeon reacted in bewilderment as if she had no idea what this woman was talking about.
“Do you have any time later? Would you like to have dinner together?”
“…”
It was such a bold proposal that Eunhyeon couldn’t answer for a moment.
“I am already married.”
“So what? If you’re married, isn’t it okay to eat with women?”
“It’s not like that…”
Eunhyun smiled embarrassingly and thought about it in her head.
‘How can I refuse?’
Saying no is not that difficult.
However, the opponent is one of the three elders of the Mage Tower.
There is no need to go against planting here.
‘And it’s somehow familiar.’
Unlike the two old men of the Red Tower and the Blue Tower, she was a very young woman with the appearance of a 20-year-old. Elder Green was somehow not unfamiliar to me.
She might have felt a sense of deja vu from her impression, which reminded her of Illyana.
“Huh, if it’s not like that, wouldn’t it be okay to have dinner with me?”
It was when Elder Nok reached out her hand to take her Eun-hyeon’s hand.
“Hyunah. What are you doing?”
Erin appeared out of nowhere and quickly snatched Eun-hyeon away and got in between the green furnace and Eun-hyeon.
“Erin? When did you come?”
“… Just now.”
Erin, who came in between the two without a word, glared at the green furnace and growled.
“Oh?”
Elder Rust laughed at Erin, who was full of hostile feelings towards her, like a beast that would not let an intruder into her territory go unattended.
