Everyone has at least one area they don’t want to lose.

It may be pride, pride, and even the reason for existence.

For Joohee Han, magic was like that.

Strictly speaking, it is not the reason for existence.

No matter how crazy I am about magic, I am not a woman foolish enough to bury my existence in magic.

However, it was pride and pride.

After reaching a certain level, magic became a very honest study for her.

Achievements vary depending on how long and how deep you dig.

In order to go up a flight of stairs, you have to build a solid foundation underneath it.

Having built up a foundation like that, she knew just by looking at her casting magic.

How much does that person understand about magic, or is he just learning what others tell him to do and reciting it like a machine?

Most were the latter.

It was unfortunate, but it was also unavoidable.

In the first place, it was because the science of magic itself had only recently been researched and put into practical use.

I only know the difficult way, let alone the easy way.

As a result, just learning the magic appropriate for your level is overwhelming.

To add depth, you had to stop and look back while others were moving forward, but that wasn’t always easy.

How many people in the world would be okay with running far behind their competitors who started on the same level?

There is only one way to solve these problems.

‘Magic should become easier.’

Magic just needs to become more intuitive than it is now.

When a certain phenomenon appears, you can’t find out only by thinking deeply about why it appeared that way and experimenting. If you look at it a few times, you think, ‘Ah, is that part causing this phenomenon?’ If you can easily think of it, the development of magic will be several times, no, dozens of times faster than it is now.

The problem was that it was impossible to reach that level.

Magic was originally a science discovered beyond the crack, not in this world.

Therefore, newly discovered theories, magic circles, etc. are all written in the local language.

Somehow, renowned scholars around the world have deciphered it and are making progress, but there is still much more to be discovered than what has been uncovered.

So I always worry.

Is there any way to simplify magic even a little more?

Every time I did that, the face of a certain man would come to mind more than once.

“Kim Do-jin… .”

Every time she faced him or saw him use magic, she would be struck by a fresh shock.

I felt like I was the first Earthling to encounter aliens.

It was that different.

He used magic more easily than anyone else, and he transformed magic at will.

All the magic with various names that have never been reported in academia must have been created by him.

And that was proof that he understood magic more deeply than anyone else.

‘The reason is… , maybe in the eyes.’

she knows

The fact that his eyes can see the magic floating in this world in clear form.

So he is capable of a deeper understanding than anyone else.

For humans, there is no action as intuitive as seeing and understanding with the eyes.

Every time I saw that, my motivation would boil over.

The ideal you desire.

I tried my best to get there somehow, and with small results, my magic became even stronger.

And it was here, the Department of Homeland Security, that the magic was first applied in practice.

In its own way, it is the best she can do at present and a masterpiece of conversion.

That building was breached.

And that was only a few days after installing the magic.

No traces of destruction were left on the building, only the magic she had installed exploded.

And that too in just a few hours.

“… It’s fun.”

Even though I said that, my insides were boiling like a furnace.

There are dozens of spells hanging from the outside of the building to the underground detention room.

Destroying it in just a few hours?

It’s so secret that no one will even notice you in the process!

That was why.

The reason she went to the Department of Homeland Security as soon as she received the call.

“Here.”

She headed straight to the scene of the crime and swept down the wall where she had installed magic.

A faint lingering scent was felt.

A little residue left behind after the magic wears off.

Through it, she looked at the process by which the magic installed on the wall disappeared.

And I was shocked.

“… Has it disappeared?”

There are three ways to destroy security-related magic.

One is to release it according to a set method or pattern.

The second is destruction by force.

And the third is to reverse the installed magic and completely remove it.

All three are not easy.

The first is only possible if information about the pattern is obtained from the client in advance.

Second, it requires great power and inevitably causes enormous noise and destruction.

Lastly, the third was more difficult than the first and second combined.

The effect of dispel varies depending on how much you understand the opponent and the gap between you and the opponent.

So what about completely removing the opponent’s magic?

‘It’s almost impossible territory.’

Removal was literally only possible by reversing all the techniques applied to the magic circle.

This means that you must clearly see not only the flow involved in the magic circle, but also the order in which the opponent draws the lines when drawing the magic circle.

This is possible if it is a very simple magic that does not have any parts that can create variables.

But the magic applied here was not at that level.

It was no exaggeration to say that it was a new magic created by adding her own interpretation to existing magic.

And he drew it himself, not some wanderer from the Magic Tower.

Can you reverse that magic and remove it without a trace?

Even his magic became stronger after gaining enlightenment?

“There is no way something like that is possible… !”

The affirmation, “No,” could not escape her mouth and was swallowed as is.

Just one person.

This is because the face of a person who could do something like this appeared in my mind.

And that too clearly.

“Kim… Dojin.”

It’s that guy again.

He is the only person in this world who can do something like this.

I remember his grinning face and chew my lips.

It’s humiliating.

I felt as if I was standing naked in front of that man.

It wouldn’t be much different from actually doing it.

The fact that the magic has been removed so completely means that the opponent is seeing through my magic so perfectly.

For her, this was no different from being forced to reveal her true self to the other person.

“Alternative… , how, oh… .”

Words don’t come out easily.

All kinds of emotions melted and mixed together in a hot furnace.

In addition to humiliation, there was also awe.

It was a shame that my magic had been destroyed so thoroughly, but at the same time, it was something worth admiring.

How on earth can one do something so absurd without any hesitation?

How much longer, longer, and deeper must I dig to reach where he stands?

While learning magic, negative thoughts that I had never thought of come to mind.

‘Is it even possible…? .’

I wonder if I can really get there.

In what could be considered the most humiliating moment of her life, she managed to come to her senses.

I want to think about it deeper and longer, but that’s not what’s important right now.

‘The culprit… , it’s almost certain.’

There is only Kim Do-jin.

If it weren’t for him, the current situation would never have occurred.

She became increasingly afraid of him.

The more I fear it, the more I yearn for it.

The more I yearn for it, the more it reminds me of it.

It wasn’t just because it was close to my magical utopia.

A terrorist scene carefully prepared by Hexagram.

He met him there by chance and pushed and pushed himself relentlessly.

There’s nothing wrong with what I said, but that moment hit me so painfully that it actually made me cry.

That moment wasn’t all that unfamiliar to her.

No, on the contrary, I was used to it.

That kind of thing happened often in the past.

A time when I was still immature.

At that time, I was so confident and lacking in ideas that I threw myself into the hunter industry just because I was curious about the power of my magic.

The status of the wizard at the time, the prestige of the family, and even the appearance that makes your heart flutter when you see it.

There was a day when it was normal to just go out without anyone stopping you because you had all three elements.

She experienced double abuse for the first time in her life.

-“Hey, you crazy bitch.”

The first word is extremely powerful.

-“Do you have no thoughts? Or do we just see our lives as shit? Otherwise, please tell me how you were able to cast a spell that took over 3 minutes when the front line was on the verge of being divided, right?”

And sentences that are stronger, spicy, and provocative than that.

My mistake is so obvious that it’s not enough to kneel down on it, but it’s so obvious that it makes me resent it.

Then, my husband and I became very attached and developed into a life-threatening relationship.

“They look so similar… .”

And that too much.

perhaps… , no, no.

I leave the building, ignoring the ominous thoughts that suddenly cross my mind.

Then, Maeng Ki-yong, who was waiting outside, approached her and asked her.

“How did you discover anything?”

Han Joo-hee thinks for a moment.

She quickly shook her head.

“… no. Maybe he was more cautious than I thought, but there isn’t much left.”

“Is that so.”

An obvious lie.

Soon she continues speaking.

“It’s still too early to be disappointed. It’s small, but there are traces left, so you’ll have to look at it for a few more days.”

He bows his head.

“Please take care of me.”

“Yes, of course.”

She says she will come back tomorrow and gets into the waiting car.

After thinking about the two destinations, I soon recited the chosen destination to the driver.

“… Let’s go to the Dawn Guild.”

She decided that meeting her husband was the priority.
