Chapter 443 – Return After Long Absence
Elysia’s words made sense. After agreeing with her, Seong-il moves to the Pineapple House.
***
“Oh my gosh, it’s so nice to see so many people gathering in our conference room, which was always quiet!”
Elysia is delighted with a tender voice as she puts various drinks down on the table of the conference hall on the 3rd floor of the Pineapple House.
“What… Isn’t everyone here?”
Seong-il, who disputes her words. In fact, some of his followers were away despite Elysia’s call.
“Can you tell me something? Someone has to help Madame Pirina’s store. Miss Charlotte or Miss Illina have to work. Even for the sacred tree quest that’s due in a few months, it’s a situation where time can’t be stopped in the world of alchemy, but this much. You have to take care of it.”
“Well… I have nothing to say when you say that.”
Seong-il spoke negatively on the outside, but Erica from the alchemy world, Yuna from the detective world, Eunwol from the martial arts world, and Ophelia from the mythology world. Seong-il feels a strange sense of satisfaction when he sees the table filled with followers who can represent each world.
‘…If I get enough points later, I’ll bring some kids from the Pocket Girls world.’
At that time, Seong-il was lost in thoughts. Elysia begins her briefing by placing her prepared materials on her desk in lieu of her holy day.
“Because of this, the current owner, Seong-il, is in a rather tiring situation in the world of ‘Mythology Academy’.”
“Hmm…”
After hearing all the explanations of the situation, the party fell into trouble. That time when I was in silence for a long time. Erisha raises her hand and speaks.
“Isn’t it okay to direct it appropriately?”
“Production?”
“Yeah. There’s no need to confront the imaginary ‘grand wizard’ with the professors.”
“…If we don’t face each other, how are you going to pass on the knowledge?”
Seong-il makes a face that he can’t understand Erica’s words. To him, Erica smiled and replied.
“Isn’t it difficult! Those… Memory storage marbles? Can’t we edit only the necessary scenes to make it look like a letter?”
“…Will that work?”
Seong-il answers Erisha’s words with a slightly dumbfounded tone. However, to her surprise, Elysia, who heard the story, expresses a positive response.
“Are you okay?”
“…Are you okay?”
“Yes! Wouldn’t it be enough if I did a good job directing it? If I do it like this, I think I can handle it safely?”
“What on earth do you think it’s connected like that?!”
Seong-il makes a face that he doesn’t understand Elysia’s words.
“Hehe… It’s simple! It’s enough if Eunwol-nim directs the role of ‘The Great Wizard’.”
“Eh?”
“Yes! Eunwol-sama is a powerful person who is acknowledged by everyone else!! In reality, the fields are different, but she is a person with great power.”
“… Eunwol is a martial artist.”
“What’s wrong with that? Pretending to be a moderately mysterious wizard, just directing is enough.”
“…How on earth?”
“This is how it works…!!!”
For some reason, Elysia was overjoyed. She starts reciting the scenario she thought of to her Seong-il.
“…This means that Eun-wol, who uses artifacts to cover her face, sets the mood by using a lot of her name, and uses all sorts of artifacts, such as my magical book of wonder, to create a wizard-like look. ?”
“That’s right!”
“Okay. Let’s concede a hundred times, let’s say it worked. Then how are you going to pass on the magic engineering mark?”
“That’s easier!!!”
“…?”
With an even more excited expression, Elysia begins to explain her ‘play’ on her own.
“…Eun-wol, the powerful ‘grand wizard’ who does not want to reveal his identity, appears only once as a face madam, and after that, her ‘master disciple’ ‘Yuna’ appears remotely, telling others You teach magic engineering?”
“Yes!! Then isn’t it perfect? Mystical genius who wants to unify the two major studies!! Genius who wants to escape the limits of wizards!!! That’s why he has one wizard and one psychic as his disciples!!”
“…Wizard Yuna, psychic me?”
“Yes!!!”
“…”
When she shows excitement unlike Elysia, who usually shows a calm appearance, her seongil is suppressed by the momentum and doesn’t say anything.
“Hmm… I think you’re okay?”
“Eh?! Really?!”
“Yes. We have an infinite amount of time to prepare… If our followers use all kinds of technology from each world to show off a mysterious production, won’t they be fooled?”
“…Okay?”
“Yes. Right now, I’m going to get all sorts of magic wands from the detective world and magic items that only exist in our world, and try to create them. Miss Erica next to me brings unique magic potions and items from the alchemy world to decorate the room. That’s it.”
“Hmm…”
“In addition, Eunwol-nim’s unique power. If you are exposed to such a complex and powerful mystery that you have never seen in your life, I don’t think even the most powerful supernatural powers or wizards can help but feel awe.”
“Hmm…”
After listening to it, Yuna’s words are quite plausible.
‘Surely… I’ve been around them and the world they live in so often, I just think I’m used to it. If you had no prior knowledge at all and saw their equipment or abilities, you would be very surprised.’
After carefully chewing on the words of her colleagues, Seong-il feels that their words are quite reasonable.
“Hmm… Come to think of it, it’s definitely… It’s plausible… But wouldn’t it be too heterogeneous? It’s fortunate if you think it’s simply heterogeneous… If you misunderstand it as a follower of foreign media, it can be very troublesome. There is.”
“Ah! Wouldn’t it be okay for me to help with that?”
“…?”
Her seongil, who quietly shuts her mouth, then looks at her at Ophelia’s words that come out of her.
“Uh… I’m a resident of the world of Mythology. If I constantly inform Eunwol-nim and Yuna of our world’s common sense, and when I make videos, I thoroughly supervise the contents, won’t there be any problems…?”
“Hmm…”
So Seong-il begins to seriously consider Ophelia’s comments.
“What do you think?”
“Hmm? It was weird at first, but after listening to it, it seems to be okay…”
“Yes?!”
Elysia is delighted like a child at Seongil’s reaction. Seong-il feels puzzled by her attitude, which goes against her usual calm and well-groomed appearance.
“…Hey, why are you so excited?”
“Oh, do you see that?”
“Yeah. Very…”
“Haha…”
Elysia’s face slightly blushed at Seongil’s point. She slowly approaches Seong-il and whispers quietly.
“…As a phantom thief, you need to know how to send a nice notice letter, and also know how to create a splendid performance on set! Also, you have to know how to have fun.”
“…”
“The theft of a phantom thief’s notice is a kind of art!! To do that, a phantom thief needs to know how to look staged like an actor sometimes!! This directing is a kind of phantom thief act!! It’s my main job, so of course I have to enjoy it!”
‘He had this aspect.’
It felt like I saw a new side of Elysia, who was usually calm.
‘Well, there’s nothing strange about him liking this kind of stimulation.’
Seong-il reminds her that she sent a ‘notice’ to her theft target in the first place, summoning a bunch of cops and stealing things as a thief’s hobby.
“Hmm… Elysia.”
“Yes!!”
“…I’ll give you full authority on this matter, so I’ll give it a try…”
“Really!! Wow!!! I will write a great synopsis!! Just leave it to me!!!”
“…”
“Well!! There’s a famous playwright I know! I’m close with the director too…!!”
“Do you know the… Playwright?”
“Sure! I’m a kind of ‘actor’ too, right? If you want to work as an actor, you need to have connections with them!!”
“…”
“Oh! I’m inspired! I’m going to prepare some costumes!!”
Excited, Elysia doesn’t even listen to her words, and leaves the conference hall in excitement. Seong-il, embarrassed by her appearance, approaches Ophelia and tells her.
“…First of all, Elysia seems to have come up with a good idea, so you should educate the kids about the world of Mythology.”
“Yes!”
***
‘Hmm… I think I’ve given the kids the materials from the world of Mythology Academy… It’ll work out…’
Seong-il, who entrusted things about fraud (?) To his followers. He now comes out of the Inner Plane to solve the last problem.
“Hmm… How should I get him to the World Tree…?”
Seong-il muttered while looking at the branches of the world tree that had grown quite large. Then, a warm echo begins to spread in his head.
“Ah…”
The branches of the World Tree seem to be talking to themselves. But, unfortunately, he can’t understand Gaji’s words.
“Somebody who can translate it… Ah!! Purple!!”
“Yes?”
Kukuru Purple, who was in charge of managing the World Tree, brought a watering can filled with liquid that looked like nutrients and was spraying the World Tree. Seong-il quickly approaches him and explains his difficulties.
“Ah… You want me to confirm what you mean instead?”
“Yes! I’ll ask you.”
“Okay~”
Purple willingly accepts the words of such a holy day. He stares blankly at the world tree and mumbles something.
“Uh… Now I’ve completely recovered my strength and ego. I heard you can walk around off the ground for about a year?”
“Ah, then do we have to go to the World Tree within a year?”
Seongil muttered at the words of the World Tree.
“Hmm? That’s not true. They say that when you run out of strength, you can just bring yourself back here? Of course, if you give power to the mother tree… You can plant it.”
“Oh…!!”
In fact, the words of the eggplant that there is no penalty.
“And… I’ve accumulated a lot of strength, so I heard you can help me? I don’t know what it is… Ah! If you hold onto yourself again, I’ll make you understand words.”
“Ohhh… Really? But… How can I carry it around?”
A branch of the World Tree too large to hold. At that time, I was thinking about whether I should go and break at least one branch.
Ugh!!!
The branch of the World Tree that answers the question of the holy day with all its body. He starts emitting mysterious waves from his body in all directions.
Awesome!! Wooddeuk!!!
A branch of the world tree that begins to compress the main body with the wavelength. A rupture sound so intense that one might wonder if it is breaking at this rate explodes in all directions, making Seongil worry.
Kwajik!! Quadduk…!!
But, worry for a while. Eggplant succeeds in condensing the body into a similar appearance to when Seong-il carried it in the past.
“Oh…”
The shape of an eggplant that is easy for people to carry around. If there is a difference from before, if in the past it seemed to be just an ordinary tree branch, now I could feel the unique aura of life spreading in all directions from the branch itself.
Ugh…!!
The intense vitality felt when holding the staff. For some reason, if I infuse magic into this staff, I feel that I can use powerful healing magic or natural magic.
“Wow… That’s cool?”
Woong~
A branch of the World Tree that responds with a warm wave to the chanting of the sacred day. Obviously, as before, he was talking to himself with a wave, but for some reason, Seong-il could understand what he was saying.
“…Can I take you with me now?”
Ugh!!
An expression of positivity emanating from the branches. Seong-il smiles brightly at that answer and thinks while raising his cane.
‘Good!! Clearing the farm story world was rewarding!!’
***
“Wow… You really are amazing?!”
Ugh!!
In the past few days, while his followers were making videos for him, Seongil devoted himself to interacting with and using the branches of the World Tree in the Inner Plane.
“Okay!! The alter ego! Run!!”
“Huh!!”
Seong-il ordered the summoned alter ego to run. As soon as he hears his words, the alter ego starts running quickly.
“Earth Bondage!!”
Seong-il holding a staff in the direction of such an alter ego and chanting a short spell. Then, tree branches protrude from the ground and bind his legs.
“Aww…!!”
“Ohh… Killing me…?”
Due to his strong physical abilities, he was quite resistant to moderate attacks. However, he is caught on a branch with sharp thorns protruding from the ground, and he is immobilized.
“How are your feet?”
“It hurts! A thorn pierced my ankle!”
An alter ego that actually leaks strange black magic power from its ankles. When they are injured, instead of blood, they radiate mana that makes up their bodies.
“Okay. Loosen up!! Bondage!!”
Then, in an instant, the twigs were released from the legs of the alter ego. Seong-il then approaches the alter ego and recites another incantation.
“The self-sustaining power of the earth!”
Teeing…!!
With a ringing sound like a bell at dawn, clear power radiated from the alter ego’s legs. Along with the shimmering light, the alter ego’s injuries begin to disappear in an instant.
“Ho… This is pretty good too.”
Of course, the potions are overflowing, and thanks to the nanomachines in the body, it doesn’t mean much to him, but the more recovery means, the better, so Seong-il looks satisfied with the eggplant recovery spell.
“Aside from this… You can control animals, or summon a higher level Earth Spirit once a day, right?”
Ugh!!
“Hehe… Animals aren’t here, so that’s the case. Come on!! Advanced Earth Spirit!!”
Koo Goo Goo!!!
Powerful energy welling up from the earth with the cry of the holy day. Not long after, a gigantic earth giant that appears to be 2M appears in front of Seongil’s eyes.
“Kyaa… He must be useful too.”
Kyarleung!!
At the appearance of such an earth spirit, the messenger of destruction bursts out of the shadows and gives a warning roar.
“Uh huh… Didn’t I tell you not to do that?”
Contrary to the scolding words, Seong-il scratches the messenger’s chin as if reassuring him while holding the messenger in his arms.
“Garleung…”
A messenger of destruction who gladly accepts the touch of such a holy day.
“Master!! Master!!”
“Ah, Elysia. Are you here?”
“Yes!! Finished!! A masterpiece was born!!”
“Oh…”
Elysia jumped right in front of Seongil’s eyes and chattered with a flushed face. She proudly takes out a large memory jewel from her bosom and thrusts it at Seong-il.
