“Push… Pfft… Fuhahaha!”

A story about not only the open invasion of the Blood Tower but also all the atrocities committed in front of me.

And the story of how I confidently fought because I thought I was weak, but then I was overwhelmingly defeated and became quiet.

Anyway, my strength was half-known, so it didn’t matter.

As it has already become an open secret that I easily destroyed the magic tower’s protective magic, among the magicians who know about the video taken at that time, they are of the opinion that although I do not know how strong my power is compared to Eterna, I am stronger than most magic tower lords. This was dominant.

There was talk that if it was possible to break the magic tower’s protection magic, it would be better to rub it against the Red Tower Lord, who is evaluated to be able to break the magic tower’s protection magic in a similar way… From the Red Tower owner’s perspective, he may have thought that it was worth dealing with.

But that was just the talk of people who didn’t know the true story.

Actually…

“Please stop… ”

Igrius slumped in his chair and muttered that.

In the end, right after they finished talking about everything that had happened just a moment ago, Igrius was left in despair and was burning white.

It looks as if he himself set his body on fire and made an offering of his soul.

“Haaa… It’s really ridiculous… Phew… ”

Seria, who was shaking her shoulders and laughing as if she couldn’t stop laughing even after the story was over, looked at the red pagoda for a moment, and then

“Puhahahaha!!”

I burst out laughing again.

‘It looks like they know each other from the looks of it… ‘

When I first met, I thought they wouldn’t get along because they were fighting with each other, but it turned out that they were like bad friends.

Seria’s age is too old to be called a bad actor… a little… There may be a big difference, though.

However, unlike the inside story, on the outside, it looked like a girl of the same age as me was making fun of a man, including me, so it was really bad.

Is this the Mesugaki or something?

‘It’s ridiculous… ‘

Even when I think about it, I just laugh out loud because the current situation is so absurd.

‘Still, I’m glad.’

The little elf who was always mumbling and clinging to me… To be honest, I was worried about whether I would be able to make friends once I was gone.

“He goes around bragging that he is the strongest, and it looks good, huh?”

“Shut up… ”

Looking at things like this, it seems like it was a needless worry.

“Don’t say too much. He had magic skills suitable for Pride. It’s just that the opponent was me.”

When I confidently declared, he raised his head and looked back at me.

He looks like he wants to fight right now.

“What, are you going to try again?”

“I’m the kind of person who can’t live with losing.”

The Red Tower owner said, glaring at me with burning eyes.

I chuckled at that.

Yes, it had to look like this to be worthy of a rumor.

“Sorry, but today is the end.”

“Then can I come tomorrow?”

“No, just don’t come for a whole month.”

I don’t want to get stuck again.

You’re not good at it.

In fact, the guy’s face turned red, possibly from anger, as if he was saying he wouldn’t fight again.

“There will be a day when we can fight again even if we are not in such a hurry. Don’t you know?”

“… Are you talking about the World’s Best Magic Tower Tournament?”

“Okay.”

We’re going to fight to our heart’s content there anyway, so why bother trying to see who’s stronger?

It’s a useless waste of time.

First of all, I am a busy person with a lot of things to do.

The only reason I’m taking the time to do this is to give a good image as I’m only a guest and this is my first time meeting you, and even if it’s a different magic tower, I’m just accepting it since we’re the same magic tower owners.

If it had been Eterna who came here instead of them, I would have just ignored them and gone to do my own thing.

“World’s Best Magic Tower Competition… ”

Seria, who was listening next to her, was lost in thought.

It may be an unfamiliar concept.

Until now, Magic Tower has had a relationship in which they complement each other.

Although they are busy criticizing each other at the pad, it can be said that they are basically close to a cooperative relationship.

However, since a new attempt has been made that completely breaks that paradigm, it would not be strange to see such a reaction.

“… ”

Igrius, who had been thinking about what I said that they would meet again in the World’s Best Magic Tower Tournament anyway, opened his eyes wide as if a good idea suddenly occurred to him, and stood up from his seat.

“Yes, that’s it!”

The guy who shouted that seemed to have come up with a good idea and turned to me with a grin.

“Are you participating in the world’s greatest magic tower competition?”

“Of course. Isn’t it a competition that you must participate in if you are a magic tower?”

I said that and nodded.

It is a competition in which participation is mandatory under the orders of Eterna.

‘I heard that it was planned to be held as a large competition that all residents of the Kingdom of Darkness can see.’

In fact, it is a huge competition that is broadcast nationwide.

If you do not prepare properly, you could disappoint not only the wizards of the Magic Tower but also the residents of the Kingdom of Darkness.

If you don’t want to see the image of the Magic Tower literally fall, it would be best to prepare as much as possible.

They say there is no place for our Blood Tower to fall from, but that was also the reason why we were trying to use this as an opportunity.

If the competition were to be broadcast in real time to all residents, the number of wizards entering the Blood Tower could increase explosively just by showing a great performance from the Blood Wizard!

A way to kill two birds with one stone by raising the status of the Blood Tower and increasing the number of wizards who will come here.

If you win this world’s best horse tower competition, you will also receive a prize money.

There are only good things, so of course you have to work hard.

Since there is nowhere else to fall, the only thing left to do is to go up, and no matter what we eat, if it helps us, it is helpful, and it will not get any worse.

“I will definitely win that competition.”

Igrius said that with an enthusiastic expression.

Huh, this is a blatant declaration of victory.

It seems like our Blood Tower was underestimated.

I too grinned and snapped my fingers.

“If you want to try it, give it a try. Because the blood tower I rule over will never soften.”

At my provocation, Igrius clenched his fists, stood up, and left the room.

“You left without even saying hello.”

Seria clicked her tongue and said, but I thought about it.

The guy who acted like a crazy person except in front of Eterna became calm in front of me, and I was happy about that.

“Now then… ”

I turned my head and looked towards Seria.

Up until now, I couldn’t talk properly because Igrius was there, but now that he has left, I can now talk about what I want.

“It would be better to get to the point slowly.”

“As expected… You know why I came here.”

I nodded at Ceria’s words.

There was no way I knew anything.

Rather, it made me wonder why I came so late.

“Did something happen? It arrived much later than I expected.”

It has been more than a month since I declared myself the successor to Count Vladimir.

If he was going to come, he would have come a long time ago, but the fact that he came only now, a month and a week later, can only be explained by the fact that things were so busy at Noktap.

As if my prediction was correct, Ceria sighed, then nodded.

“Because we have a serious generational conflict. It’s not easy because you have to deal with the old people in the Senate. They said they were just going to visit the Blood Tower for a short time, so why are they so dissatisfied? The reason why I came out now was because I was forced to come out under the pretext that the position of top manager had recently changed.”

Seria seemed very dissatisfied as she spoke with her lips pouting.

It looks like the green tower is a lot tougher than I thought.

Well, now that I think about it, if the people entering are elves, it would be natural for them to become a super-aging magic tower.

Well, generational conflict is something that mankind has not been able to resolve for a long time, so wouldn’t it be something that we will never be able to resolve in the future?

However, the change in top administrator caused a lot of dissatisfaction among high-ranking wizards and wizards, so it seemed like they would allow it if they used this as an excuse.

They are great old people.

“Ha… ”

He thought he wanted to become a magic tower lord after defeating the demon lord, but when he actually became a magic tower lord, he complained that it was completely different from what he had thought.

It looks like Noktap is having a hard time as he mutters with his expression scrunched up, probably because a lot of bad things have happened.

‘Even so, I wonder if it would be as big as our Blood Tower.’

We have the hardest time.

With that in mind, I opened my mouth.

“Then, where should I start talking?”

Where should I start talking to elicit an interesting response?

While thinking deeply, I cautiously opened my mouth.
