Ch.78Decisive Battle: Second Half (5)

# At That Moment

At that moment.

Both the magicians and the citizens of the Magical Kingdom were thrown into great confusion.

The debate about who was stronger between the Blood Tower Master and the Green Tower Master had been a topic of much discussion.

People who had witnessed Midir’s power sometimes quietly speculated that Midir might be stronger, but it was hard to believe, and naturally, most didn’t believe it.

It was understandable.

Logically speaking, between a magician from the Hero’s party who defeated the Demon King, and not even the Hero but merely a successor to a member of the Hero’s party…

If asked who would be stronger, anyone would think it would be the former.

In reality, most people thought that way.

It was difficult to believe the latter would be stronger.

However…

[Breaking News) Green Tower in big trouble…!! If this continues]

[Blood Tower Master <- Just upvote if she’s the GOAT lol]

[Wow holy shit what did I just see?]

[Damn it’s the Blood Tower Master again!!]

The forums were exploding beyond the Blood Tower boards to even the Aether Tower boards.

The Blood Tower forum was already half-paralyzed due to all the magicians flooding in to post, and even the Aether Tower forum with its wider server capacity was struggling to handle the explosive rate of new posts.

[Blood Tower Master <- Just upvote if she’s the GOAT lol]

Honestly, upvote if you’re one of those shameless Average Bloods who said “Blood Tower Master will probably win~” but secretly thought the Green Tower Master would win lololol

[Upvote if you’re a destroyed Green Tower supporter lololololol]

The Green Tower Master’s victory would have improved the tower’s atmosphere, but now all those old fogeys are in a bad mood, upvote lolololololololol

ㄴㄴ M Generation… not easy…

– Those useless old fogeys really make me want to abandon them all

ㄴ Those old people just ruin the atmosphere damn

ㄴㄴ Sigh… I want to escape

“Hehehe…”

I lose track of time when looking at my MagicPad.

There are still more fun posts left, but if I keep reading, there’ll be no end to it.

[So who’s stronger between the Blood Tower Master and the Red Tower Master?]

Tell me straight… I really can’t afford to lose money!!!!!!!

Comments:

– If you still don’t know after watching all the matches so far, you deserve to lose your money

ㄴ For real

– Just lose your money, idiot

ㄴ That’s really harsh, you bitch (to the author)

ㄴㄴ You still don’t get it? lol Who would win, logically??

“Gambling…”

Well, while there’s a somewhat established hierarchy among Magic Tower Masters, I suppose people could still gamble on match predictions.

It’s not my place to interfere with their affairs.

Still…

‘They don’t think I’ll win even at a glance…?’

Even so, it’s a bit sad that there are still people betting against me in favor of the Red Tower Master.

Doesn’t that suggest that everything I’ve shown so far seemed insignificant?

‘Well…’

Thinking about it that way makes me feel somewhat indignant.

I’ve been practically advertising myself all this time, and if someone still has the intelligence to pick someone else over me, then perhaps, as the comment suggests, losing a significant amount of money might be a valuable life lesson.

Knock knock

“Sister! Can I come in?”

“Do come in.”

Click!

“Sisterrr!!”

“Oh my…”

As soon as I said she could enter, the door opened, and in an instant, a young girl rushed in and hugged me.

Young, but…

“When did you grow this much…?”

“Hehehe…”

How could this be…

Irina, who used to be shorter than me, has now become almost my height.

This is unacceptable…

‘Even though I don’t grow, still…!’

It’s such a desperate feeling that I might need to deliberately find a way to make my body taller…

It feels strange to stay the same while watching the children around me gradually grow.

If only I could grow too, I would have liked to maintain the height difference with Irina.

‘Since I look too much like a young child on the outside…’

Hmm…

I could probably use Blood Claw Art to appear as an adult, but…

That’s not my true form, just a temporary change using Blood Claw Art…

That seems a bit cowardly.

Well…

‘I can’t tell a child not to grow…’

Eventually, she’ll surpass my height and look down at me, so it’s strange to despair now just because Irina is growing.

I gently stroked Irina’s head and said:

“Did you watch my match well?”

“Yes! It was amazing!”

“Thank you for saying so.”

I smiled.

“Irina, if you work hard, someday you’ll be able to fight like me.”

“Really?”

“Of course. You’re the most talented child in Blood Magic among all the people I know.”

And also…

She’s expected to succeed as the next Blood Tower Master before long.

Hmm…

‘Come to think of it, it would be difficult for her to fight like me.’

Unless she becomes a vampire, it would be hard for her to fight like I do.

Still, someone like Irina will probably find a way somehow.

Even though she’s young, she’s already showing such potential, so I believe the day when her talent fully blooms isn’t far off.

“Let’s go eat something delicious today.”

“Yes! But don’t you need to prepare for the finals?”

“No need.”

Whatever he brings, there’s no way I’ll lose to him.

Only if my opponent were the Demon King or perhaps Eterna would I need to take them seriously.

“Then there’s something I want to eat, can we go together?”

“Tell me. I’ll buy you everything.”

“Yay!”

I did want to look at my MagicPad more.

But playing with Irina is also very important to me.

I put away my MagicPad and, chuckling, followed Irina outside.

Since I finished the match well, I should take a good rest today.
