[Where else in the world would you find a Magic Tower Master like this??]

[Justice served, this is epic lmaooooo]

In an instant, the forum was flooded with posts praising Midir.

[What’s going on? Why is everyone going crazy?]

We were just talking about the explanation post.

I can’t keep up with all these new topics;;

Comments

– Haven’t you heard? They arrested all those bastards who were price gouging lolololol

ㄴ What are you talking about? Price gouging? Are you talking about restaurants? (OP)

ㄴㄴ Well, where else would price gouging happen besides restaurants?

– The owner who was causing trouble at the Blood Restaurant got fact-checked and beaten down by Lady Midir lolololol

ㄴ Those bastards deserved it anyway…

ㄴㄴ Charging 30,000 gold minimum for one meal was fucking insane;;

ㄴ Seriously? That’s crazy;; (OP)

– Blood mage… get out of your lab for once!!

ㄴ Who the hell uses their MagicPad outside?;; (OP)

Other Blood Mages who were confused about the sudden change in topic from the explanation post to something else started asking questions about the situation.

Normally, users would have responded with annoyance, telling them to figure it out themselves, but now the atmosphere was so festive that everyone was happily answering questions with smiles.

Blood Mages aren’t exactly a long-lived species that live for hundreds of years, but how could they not be happy about the arrest of those who had been price gouging and running arrogant businesses for 129 years?

Of course, if that was all, they would have just thought it was good news and moved on.

But this time, the situation was quite different.

[Pinned post: Situation Summary.txt]

Since many people seem confused about what’s happening, I’m posting this summary. Pin this post.

As you all know, there are outside restaurants in the Blood Magic Tower.

The Blood Restaurant used to provide free meals, but it closed down because the Blood Tower determined they couldn’t afford to maintain it. Then suddenly one day, the Tower reopened it.

Of course, everyone was surprised but who wouldn’t go when free meals were being offered?

But the thing is, the food was surprisingly delicious.

Naturally, people who had been paying high prices for low-quality food elsewhere started drifting to the Blood Restaurant one by one, and the outside restaurants soon had only flies buzzing around.

So that bastard restaurant owner got pissed off and came to the Blood Restaurant causing trouble lololololol

I mean lolololol instead of formally complaining to the Tower, he came to harass a well-run restaurant, which seemed like a public nuisance, but then Lady Midir appeared right at that moment lololol

Manners education: ON

Lady Midir was so intimidating… when she told him to kneel, he just automatically did it.

Even I, who was watching, almost knelt out of fear, but since the owner was just a regular person and not a mage, he obviously had no choice but to kneel.

Even so, when he complained that this would kill small business owners and that it was too harsh, Lady Midir got super pissed and immediately went OFF!!

Even I thought what she said was brutal lolololol I mean seriously lololol seeing that bastard who sells stew for 20,000-30,000 gold complaining was so annoying…

She made two proposals, and one was “Do you want to sell your body to pay back all the money you’ve been extorting?”

Up to that point, I was nodding in agreement.

But the second proposal really surprised me:

She said she would provide the ingredients, so he should offer meals for free!!

My mind was blown when I heard that, seriously.

The Blood Restaurant was already getting so popular that there weren’t enough seats, and Lady Midir knew this and deliberately made such a proposal.

To take care of us… wow damn…

Like if you believed in Lady Midir all along sob sob

Honestly, I cried so much from happiness during this speech… it feels like we’re finally seeing the light…

Lady Midir is just our savior…

Comments

– Wow, she’s doing this for us?

ㄴ It’s hard to find a Tower Master like this…

– Honestly, what Magic Tower in the world has a Tower Master who personally takes care of the mages’ welfare?

– This is quite surprising… What? Was she actually preparing something during that month of doing nothing?

ㄴ That seems to be the case… honestly, disappearing for a month was really unacceptable.

ㄴㄴ I think it’s even more unacceptable to give such a speech and then disappear lololol She was probably preparing all this time. Just wait a bit longer, she’ll bring something even bigger lololololol

ㄴㄴㄴ If there’s something even bigger than this, how big could it be? Damn lolololol

– Wow, so we can choose whatever food we want now?

ㄴ Yeah, and it’s free lolololol

ㄴㄴ Other towers make you pay for food, but the Blood Tower offers everything for free? And with variety? Has our Tower Master finally lost her mind?? Wow damn;;

ㄴㄴㄴ I heard that bastard owner was so scared of Lady Midir that he immediately started providing free meals when he got back. Is this really made by him? It’s delicious…

[I’m an employee who worked under that owner.]

Even I don’t understand why I worked for him.

He barely paid anything, but I stayed because there was nowhere else to go…

I was going to quit because I didn’t want to be involved in this incident, but he didn’t even try to stop me.

If I had known he was this kind of person, I would have left earlier… I really regret it…

Comments

– Gay… I remember you… you’re that part-timer who secretly gave us extra servings, right?

ㄴ You remember me. Thank you. (OP)

ㄴㄴ Why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you… I noticed the Blood Restaurant seems a bit understaffed, why don’t you try working there?

ㄴㄴㄴ Thank you

– He didn’t even take care of his own employees lolololol The more we dig, the more legendary stuff comes out lolololololol

ㄴ It’s pretty common lolol Honestly, most restaurants in the Tower charged exorbitant prices but were subpar… To be frank, even with free meals offered, I wonder how many people would actually go lolol

ㄴㄴ They’ll have to go… The Blood Restaurant is so packed that if you don’t go elsewhere, you can’t eat at all…

ㄴㄴㄴ Is it that bad?

ㄴㄴㄴㄴ Blood-poor;;

The news was that the restaurants that had been price gouging and running arrogant businesses had started providing free meals.

While it was unclear how this situation would unfold, from their perspective, they were cheering for Midir who had properly cracked down on the arrogant merchants.

After all, they had become the only Magic Tower where various types of food could be eaten for free.

Being able to eat any food for free was certainly something to boast about to other Magic Towers.

Most Magic Towers tended to spend money on research, so they generally had little concept of welfare for their mages.

“This is it.”

Midir, who was smiling contentedly while looking at the forum reactions, nodded and looked down at the food in front of her.

‘I don’t particularly need to consume food, but…’

Even as a vampire, she could get enough nutrients from the blood obtained by killing other Demon King’s army members or magical beasts, so she could continue moving forward even without supplies as long as there were things to kill.

Still, if one is a living being, there are many who consider the taste experienced when eating food as one of life’s pleasures.

She was also one of those types of people.

“Well then, let’s eat!”

“Enjoy your meal.”

Midir smiled as she watched Irina start eating, and began to think about when to start her next plan.

The next plan… though there was only one thing she needed to do.

To use Blood Strengthening Art on all Blood Mages.

That was the biggest task for Midir right now.

Considering the side effects of the Blood Strengthening Art, she planned to give it only to those who promised to live their entire lives as Blood Mages.

There was only one reason.

‘The Greatest Magic Tower Tournament… that’s all there is…’

Having Blood Mages who participate in the Greatest Magic Tower Tournament directly show their greatness and naturally raise the status of the Blood Tower.

Raising the perception of the Blood Magic Tower itself was Midir’s goal, so she had to put everything into the hard-won opportunity of the Greatest Magic Tower Tournament.

And by having all Blood Mages show their best, they would raise awareness about Blood Magic…

“When you finish eating, show me your Blood Magic.”

“Huh? Alwight!”

“You should swallow what’s in your mouth before answering.”

“Yeeees~”

Midir chuckled and thought.

She would cement it with Blood Magic performed by Irina herself.

Irina’s role was important.

For that reason, confirming how much Irina’s Blood Magic had improved was a critical matter.

She would definitely make the Blood Tower prosper.

Midir resolved once more.

Irina, completely unaware of Midir’s inner thoughts, was just grinning happily at the fact that she was with her beloved sister while eating her food.
