Ch.63Fun Competition (3)

    TowerInside.

    While it’s easy to think that only the official bulletin boards for each tower exist, that only applies to standard MagicPads.

    Since MagicPads are essentially magical tools created through magic, they can be modified to create separate bulletin boards.

    As these pads were personally designed by Eterna, modifying them wasn’t easy, but thanks to the many talented mages in the Magical Kingdom, after extensive research, it became possible to create untraceable bulletin boards.

    And these bulletin boards… naturally became the dark side of the Magic Towers.

    [This is surprisingly arousing]

    [Did you guys see this?]

    [Holy shit this is insane]

    [LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO]

    This place was filled with vulgar discussions too crude to mention aloud.

    Of course, there were boards where criminal activities were discussed, but these private bulletin boards—known among mages as “deep forums” or “Deep Forum” for short—were filled with content that shouldn’t be casually shared, and unspoken rules naturally emerged.

    Never intrude on each other’s territory.

    And naturally, as one might expect…

    [Fuck, we’re screwed]

    [The agricultural convention is happening, fuck!!]

    There were also boards dedicated to underground items like doujinshi.

    [The agricultural convention is happening, fuck!!]

    I was just choosing what to look at when a familiar face passed by.

    When I checked who it was, it was Lady Midir, holy shit;;

    And Irina? Lady Midir’s top disciple was walking around too. What? Has our location been compromised?

    Aren’t we fucked??

    Comments:

    – You saw her too? Shit, we’re screwed

    ㄴ Seriously, what if she remembers our faces? We can’t get kicked out of the Magic Tower

    ㄴㄴ But why would she remember mages like us?

    ㄴㄴㄴ That’s true lol

    – Who told her about this?

    ㄴ There was someone walking with her, was it him?

    ㄴㄴ Who the fuck was it!!!

    ㄴㄴㄴ How would I know?

    – So you saw Lady Midir up close? Damn, I’m so jealous

    ㄴ She did smell really nice… Lady Midir is amazing…

    ㄴㄴ More arousing than seeing her in doujinshi?

    [You idiots, the problem isn’t whether she remembers us or not]

    If she came all the way here, she obviously knows about this board too

    If they check our MagicPads, we’re all fucked

    We need to get standard MagicPads fast;;

    Comments:

    – We’re fucked lololol

    ㄴ You just realized that now, gay boy? lololololol

    – Why get a standard MagicPad?

    ㄴ You blockhead, you can only log in to one account, and if you give them an unlogged device, they won’t accept it

    ㄴㄴ ??

    – Let me explain for those who don’t understand. You need to log in to access this place, right? But you can only log in to one device under your name. To trade here, you need to access it under your name, so if they check your MagicPad, you need a ‘standard’ pad logged in under your name

    ㄴ If you still don’t understand after this explanation, just give up…

    ㄴㄴ Thanks for explaining

    ㄴㄴㄴ Wow, we really are screwed

    Those who didn’t understand at first gradually began to comprehend.

    They needed to obtain ‘standard’ MagicPads logged in under their names for inspection, but to use the ‘Deep Forum,’ they needed ‘modified’ MagicPads logged in under their names. Since they could only log in to one device, they essentially had to leave the forum. For those who had been active on the forum for years, this was an unwelcome situation.

    However…

    [To be honest, what we were doing was pretty outrageous…]

    Who would do this to a Tower Master?

    Honestly, even I think we crossed the line…

    If we don’t want to get kicked out, we should just quietly leave

    Comments:

    – That’s true… there’s no way this would be allowed

    ㄴ Who got us caught? We weren’t supposed to be discovered

    ㄴㄴ I’m pretty sure it was that guy walking with her

    – No matter how jealous we are, let’s not curse… if this gets out, getting kicked out won’t be the end of it

    – I can’t give up my Lady Midir fandom… I’ll just stay here till the end

    ㄴ This guy’s trying to escape the Blood Tower…

    ㄴㄴ Busted…

    Most of the forum was discussing how Midir might react.

    Discussing it wouldn’t suddenly create a miracle, but they were still fans of Midir gathered in this forum.

    It’s just that their fandom had taken a somewhat twisted direction.

    The forum was too precious to leave—despite being relatively new, it was a paradise for Midir’s fans, filled with content related to her.

    As they lamented their future, something unexpected happened.

    [No need to worry] – IronTowerBrat (Administrator)

    (Contract photo, important parts censored.jpg)

    I got permission

    Now you can post whatever you want here and no one will complain

    Actually, if you stay active, money comes in lololol

    Especially you Blood Mages, work hard and earn money for the Blood Tower, you slaves

    Comments:

    – ?

    ㄴ Did I just read that right? Really?

    – (Question mark cone)

    – Huh? What do you mean you got permission?

    ㄴ IronTowerBrat: Exactly what I said, you can keep being active, you fools

    ㄴㄴ ????

    – What, so I can work for the Blood Tower now?

    ㄴ I’m a low-level mage and no one would accept me, but this;;

    ㄴㄴ Is this guy crazy? lololololol

    ㄴㄴ You’re making money by posting lewd content of your master? lolololololololol

    ㄴㄴ (Watch me, I’m protecting the Blood Tower cone)

    A single post suddenly appeared.

    The content alone—stating there was no need to worry about the current situation—was enough to draw attention, but what made it even more compelling was that it was posted by ‘IronTowerBrat,’ the owner of this forum.

    And the content was even more unbelievable.

    “You don’t believe this? It’s true.”

    Erika, the pink-haired girl and master of the Iron Tower, rolled a strawberry candy in her mouth and chuckled.

    She honestly hadn’t imagined she could get permission.

    Most girls her age would be disgusted if they found out they were being used for such content and would try to stop it, not react like her.

    Erika knew this.

    Especially in this world, where the culture that existed only in the Iron Tower wasn’t widespread, it would be even harder to accept, so Erika had thought all was lost.

    But the situation turned around when Midir realized there was money to be made and made a contract.

    ‘It’s surprising that she accepted it just because it makes money…’

    Everyone knows.

    Midir never uses her earnings for personal purposes.

    She publicly disclosed her income and transparently revealed where it was all being used, so she couldn’t use it privately even if she wanted to.

    Of course, money received personally was hers and she had no obligation to disclose it, but no one in the Blood Tower would dare comment on how she spent her money.

    Especially if that person was Midir, the master of the Blood Tower.

    No one would be crazy enough to do that.

    In other words, she permitted this creative content using her as material solely to improve the Blood Tower.

    Was it simply a matter of money coming in to be used for the Blood Tower?

    The Iron Tower not only managed magical tools but also the crucial MagicPads, created all kinds of mechanical devices, and sold books and novels.

    Except for the Aether Tower, the Iron Tower was the wealthiest.

    ‘She’s growing on me…’

    While she might not understand poverty, she knew that what Midir did wasn’t easy.

    So she couldn’t help but find it impressive.

    Erika rolled the candy in her mouth as she looked at her MagicPad.

    At first, she was interested because Midir acted exactly like a vampire from a typical vampire manga.

    After meeting her, talking with her, discussing contracts…

    After doing all sorts of things, she found herself developing a deep desire to become close friends with her.

    ‘It’s rare for Tower Masters to become close~’

    Humming happily while lying on her stomach looking at her MagicPad, Erika bit into her candy.

    “Hehe…”

    On the MagicPad was a photo of Erika with a bewildered-looking Midir.

    She liked this photo.

    Erika immediately printed it out and placed it in a frame on the wall.

    It was a photo taken to commemorate their first contract together.
