The Birth of the 9th Circle Wizard

Chapter 34

Chapter 34 Magic Research (2)

Professor Inha Oh.

mid 50’s age.

He fought 12 years on the front lines as a battle wizard, then changed his major and became a professor of drug magic.

‘You can’t just believe Na Ye-rin’s words and unconditionally conclude that he belongs to the Cheonwoohoe.’

If Na Yerin is lying.

He had to think or even if he was wrong.

“Oh, yes, please sit down.”

She said that she was a professor at Seoul National University, so Catherine suggested the position.

Soon-won stood up from his seat and said hello.

“Hello. Prof.”

“what? Soon-won was there too.”

Soon-won was a celebrity in college.

The nephew of the SW Company vice president and perfect score for the SAT. senior admission. He was the top of the class with a 4.3 out of 4.3 GPA.

In addition, with the recommendation of Professor Se-hyeong Jang,

On the other hand, he went around the practice like in the third year, so he was offended by a professor who didn’t know him.

“You say you’re flying under Professor Lee Yeo-jin these days?”

“no. just lucky… .”

“Even being humble. I should have caught it first. I’m sorry.”

In this way, Professor Oh In-ha seemed like a really nice person.

However, he did not judge people by first impressions, as he had seen many people with different looks and feelings throughout his life.

“But, Catherine, Mr. I heard her talking about material transfer earlier, can you talk to me about it?”

Catherine, who can speak non-stop for three days and three nights when it comes to magical techniques, was excited to answer Professor Oh In-ha’s question.

“I designed a technology that transforms material information into information and then reconstructs it from a distance,” she said.

“So you’re talking about teleportation that is often seen in cartoons and movies, right?”

“Yes that’s right. To transfer substances

First, we have to investigate the structure of the material, and that is through the non-destructive testing machine I envisioned… .”

“Wait. boss. I’m sorry I cut off the words, but isn’t that already a skill?”

At Professor Oh In-ha’s words, Catherine’s eyes widened.

“What do you mean?”

“There are already wizards who teleport. Did you miss the news? The Dark Knight… .”

“Ah, I watched the news too, but didn’t I hide my body with invisibility magic?

yo. This? Real teleportation is a revolution. Logistics Revolution!”

As she said, when long-distance teleportation becomes possible, a new industrial revolution will occur.

Taxis, buses, subways and planes disappear, and delivery of parcels and food becomes possible in seconds.

The world will reach the volume of 1 second.

‘Of course, that didn’t really happen.’

First of all, it’s impossible. Teleport is a 5th circle magic.

To reach the 5th circle magic,

Even after graduating from cranes, you have to go crazy with magic.

A wizard who values work-life balance and family is unattainable.

The second reason was that it consumed enormous magical power.

‘I can move freely because I have a top-class Magic Stone.’

The superlative magic crystal had the energy that even an aircraft carrier could sound like, so its value was astronomical.

“But even if the Dark Knight really can teleport, if he really does that, he’s crazy.

It must be a person.”

“Yes?”

“Excuse me?”

Soon-won and Oh In-ha were startled by Catherine’s words and waited for her answer.

“Teleportation basically goes through four steps: interpreting, disassembling, transmitting, and reconstructing the structure of the object to be moved.”

“Yes, so?”

“I do not know? Disassembly is the problem. The moment you start teleporting, that person dies. Arriving at your destination is a replica of that person.”

Soon-won also learned about this part when he first learned the teleport magic.

Teleportation is like moving computer files from C drive to D drive.

Actually, the file is not moved, but the same file is copied to the D drive and the file in the C drive is deleted.

That is, when the transfer is finished, the original source is destroyed.

“What if an error occurs during the transmission process? It is a yangban person who has a memory change or a personality change, and it is a part of the bodymay disappear or become something else altogether. Bioethically, even with teleport magic, only objects will be able to move.”

After that, Professor Oh In-ha took out his smartphone and showed the gallery screen.

“This is a picture I got from an acquaintance of the Magic Kingdom, look at this. The Dark Knight is a magic circle left behind by teleporting from Mt. Bukhan.”

“uh?”

When Catherine saw it, she was startled, and she pulled one of her notes out of her bag.

There was almost the same appearance, but a sparsely empty magic circle was drawn.

“I designed it for 8 years and completed 80% of it, but how is the finished version here… .”

For Catherine, she was stunned and her nose was stuffed.

“Where was this magic circle?”

“This is the magic circle drawn on the floor when the Dark Knight disappeared from Mt. Bukhak.”

“I’m sure he’s really teleporting. Oh my God.”

“How are you sure of that?”

“Did I tell you earlier? He said he had to go through 4 steps to teleport. Interpretation and transmission are easy. It is difficult to disassemble and rebuild. It requires technology that is hundreds of times more advanced than CT scan or MRI scan. I feel like I’ve found the answer to the problem I’m stuck on.”

Catherine frowned as she peered through her photo.

“But it’s strange. It goes without saying that the logic of teleportation is consistent, but this is very similar to the one I made… .”

“Is there any possibility that someone called the Dark Knight stole the boss’s ideas?”

“It doesn’t matter. To fill the remaining 20%, hundreds of wizards and millions of dollars were invested, and it was expected that it would take 10 years to complete. I really want to meet a man named Dark Knight.”

it’s right in front of you

Soon-won wanted to say, but he resisted.

“Professor Inha Oh is very interested in the Dark Knight.

yo. This?”

Soon-won asked a question to see Professor Oh In-ha’s heart.

He spoke surprisingly quietly.

“As you may know, the class of wizards is a profession of constant exploration. Even if the rumors are only half true, he is a genius who will be born once in 100 years. It’s only natural that I want to meet you as a wizard. Are you not like that?”

“Yeah, what… .”

Soon-won mistook the answer.

“This is true. It’s already time to go to class. Nice to meet you. Catherine

blind.”

“Yes, me too.”

“ Soon-won-kun. When you have time, please drop by my lab. Let’s have a cup of coffee together.”

“all right.”

Professor Oh In-ha has left.

Soon-won decided to exchange her cell phone numbers with Catherine, keep in touch regularly, and talk about future plans.

He had too much work to do right now to focus on building Catherine and her orbital elevator, so he decided to go ahead with it when he had the time.

It’s 2008.

Class 05 classmates moved up to the second year of the main course, and Soon-won took classes with the fourth year.

Because it was unprecedented, some professors objected, but the professors who saw that they passed all the tests with perfect scores kept their mouths shut.

It was a result of taking classes only in the morning and doing research in the graduate school laboratory in the afternoon.

[This is breaking news. The Han River, Nakdong River, Geum River, and Yeongsan River were dyed red like blood. The Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs immediately started an investigation… .]

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Oh, my waist!”

Lim Dong-gu turned on the stretch and watched TV and was startled and turned up the sound.

Seonghyeon Lee and Soon-won also stopped their research and looked at the news.

“what? Why is the river that way?”

“Which plant did not have a wastewater spill?”

“No, but will all four rivers turn red at the same time?”

The problem was that this was just the beginning.

This is happening not only in Korea, but also in all rivers around the world.

The Korea Water Resources Corporation was in an uproar and asked the wizards for help.

Soon-won knew why this was happening.

‘The king of calamity has already appeared?’

It appeared 10 years earlier.

Soon-won recalled his memory before his return, came up with a solution, and decided to move on immediately.

‘I need someone to be my hands and feet for now.’

* * *

Major Kim Soo-young.

While dealing with munitions and budgets at the Gyeryong University service support group, he uncovered corruption in the military payment of 940 million won in loss to the national treasury under a private contract.

He reported to the military investigative authorities 7 times as per the procedure, but no investigation was possible on the return. He was acquitted and there was no follow-up investigation.

Rather, Major Kim Soo-young was marked as a whistleblower and had to take off his clothes with all sorts of false accusations.

In addition, when he was discharged and went to the Veterans Support Center to look for a job, he lashed out at him saying there was no company to accept whistleblowers.

“Hey, I need to get a job soon… .”

He has a wife like a fox and two children like a rabbit.

Thanks to the severance pay, I have no worries for the time being, but I was afraid that the preparation period for employment would be prolonged.

‘Should I rather open a small restaurant?’

That thought stopped right away.

After graduating from the Naval Academy, he served in the military for the rest of his life.

Now, the path I have taken to start my own business has been very different.

‘Whew… .’

I remembered what her wife said last night.

She shed tears as to why she pretended to be ignorant and lived like everyone else, revealing it and shaking her family’s livelihood.

‘Still, I do not regret that choice. I feel sorry for her family.’

He sat on a park bench and looked up at the sky.

As I looked at the clear sky without a single cloud, it felt like the worries in my head had disappeared a bit.

“Can I sit next to you?”

He was a young student who appeared to be in his early to mid-20s.

Kim Soo-young offered him a seat.

“Yes, sit down.”

“thank you.”

Soon-won sat down in the seat next to him.

The two looked blankly at the sky.

10 minutes passed like that.

Soon-won was the first to speak.

“You know what?”

At Soon-won’s words, Kim Soo-young turned and looked at him.

“Scientists estimate the age of the earth to be 4.567 billion years old, but if we assume that this is 24 hours a day, the time at which mankind was born is 23:59:59. If you look at the universe of 15 billion years old in 24 hours, it is said that human history is 0.03 seconds.”

Space science story was a topic that Kim Soo-young especially liked.

“Yes, from a cosmic point of view, the Earth is

It wouldn’t be the size of dust. I know everything is useless even if I fight to death, but life has already been thrown away, so I want to live with no regrets.”

Soon-won held out his hand.

“ My name is Jung Soon-won.”

“This is Kim Soo-young.”

“Are you looking for a job?”

Kim Soo-young, who was holding Soon-won’s hand, frowned.

“Did you happen to know who I am?”

“Yes.”

“A lawyer who came to deliver a complaint

Aren’t you going to live?”

Soon-won smiled and shook his head.

“It’s the other way around. I came here because I wanted to hire Kim Soo-young.”

“Yes?”

Soon-won took out the contract documents he had brought and showed them.

“Working 4 days a week from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Salary deducted from tax

8 million won. 45 days of paid leave per year

I can use it. Overtime pay 3 times a week

Up to 4 times the horse allowance and bonus

I’ll give you too. Salary increase every year

NS. Of course, four major insurances are applied.”

Kim Soo-young was distracted by the sudden pouring of words.

“Come on, wait a minute. Where are you from?”

“I would like to hire Kim Soo-young as the communication team leader of the JSW Future Strategy Office, which oversees SW Company, JS Company, and JW Workshop.”

Kim Soo-young doubted her ears for a moment.

Taebaek Mountains

Falling along the east coast near Wonsan

It is a mountain range that runs north-south for 600 km to the vicinity of Dadaepo at the estuary of the river.However, in the mountain range, at every 60km point, there was one iron stake, which was not put in by the Japanese to cut off the spirit of Korea, but someone recently put it in, giving off a strange energy.

“So, if you pull this out, a gate will be created?”

“Yes, Chief Kim.”

Soon-won answered Kim Soo-young’s words.

“If that’s true, shouldn’t it be reported to the Magic Bureau?”

“It’s not possible. If you do that, you will be late.”

The iron stake that causes the 10 plagues.

Even if you don’t pull out the iron stake, a disaster will appear every 13 days.

1. Curse of the Nile

2. Curse of the Frog

3. Curse of Lee

4. The Curse of Paris

5. Curse of the Beast

6. Boil Curse

7. Curse of Hail

8. The Locust’s Curse

9. Curse of Darkness

10. The Curse of New Life

“Even if you report the existence of the iron stake and start an investigation, it is difficult to think of it as being related to the 10th disaster, and it takes a long time for a raid team to form even if you notice it late. It’s quicker to go in here with this friend, solve it, and get out.”

This friend is Han Ji-hee.

It meant a knight in a white coat.

“I was very surprised that the president is the owner of SW Company, JS Company, and JW Workshop, but I can’t believe that the two of them were knights of The Dark Knight and White Coat.

Yes. Besides, they are students of Seoul National University’s magic department.”

But I had to believe it.

This is because, with Soon-won’s long-distance teleport, he took Han Ji-hee and Kim Soo-young and moved from Seoul to Seoraksan in Gangwon-do at once.

Through the study of combining teleport with Blink, it was now possible to move freely without a clean room as long as there were coordinates.

“But when did you tell me all these secrets when you saw me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll report it to the press?”

Of course it can’t be.

Before returning, he was the one who gave his life to protect Soon-won.

For Soon-won, Kim Soo-young was a strong person who could be trusted even if there were two sides of the sky.

“I know better than anyone that the team leader is not like that.”

Sooyoung felt indescribable emotions.

He thought that the world was going to collapse when he was forcibly discharged, but now he has someone who believes in him and depends on him more than anyone else.

“When you pull a stake, the gate opens, but after 13 minutes, the stake is created again and the gate closes. It must be cumbersome, but in case Jihee and I here get out, you have to pull the stakes out once an hour.”

It’s hard work.

And it’s important.

This is because if Kim Soo-young does not pull out the stake, the exit from the gate disappears.

“Just leave it to me. Even if I die, I will not stop pulling these stakes.”

“You have to pull out the stakes, but you can’t die.”

Kim Soo-young burst out laughing at Soon-won’s words.

“Iknow, right. I lied.”

Soon-won was ready to go in, carrying a bag of emergency food on his shoulder.

“Hey Jihee. Are you ready?”

“Eww ”

“Stone”

“Then please start.”
