The Birth of the 9th Circle Wizard

In March, I graduated from college.

Many people seemed curious about Soon-won's future career after graduating from high school, but he stayed at home and continued his training.

‘I have just reached the 7th circle.’

not happy

As long as it was 7 circles before his return, he is back to his original level.

“In the 7th circle, it is only possible to deal with three count-level nobles.”

To face the Marquis class, he had to wear a full set of Class A equipment.

I suddenly remembered Han Seok-cheol's equipment that he had put in a subspace.

‘Armor that emphasizes defense doesn’t suit me.’

Soon-won valued his speed and attack power.

This was the armor worn by the tanker in charge of the vanguard.

‘I need to improve this.’

I just thought of someone who would wear this.

The university often called me.

Professor Jang Se-hyeong persuaded Soon-won that if he came to the University Magic Center, he would start as a 2nd year combat wizard as soon as possible.

When I refused it, Professor Yeo-jin Lee kept calling me to come to graduate school, but he also refused.

Soon-won founded the Gearco Guild.

[ Jung Soon-won founded his guild.]

[Graduating after 5 years of skipping, just found a guild?]

[They say that guilds make good money these days, but that's a story that only the battle wizards with decades of experience can talk about. What kind of bullshit are you?]

[His uncle is the vice president of the SW company.]

When I entered the anonymous bulletin board of my classmate from Seoul National University's sorcery class in 05 on Hypernet, the story of Soon-won came up.

Hypernet is an additional technology of the status window system that Soon-won introduced to the world through the SW company. It refers to the holographic Internet that only wizards can use.

‘Now, the information will be circulating.’

The reason Soon-won was frustrated was the absence of a hypernet.

It was a system used by many wizards in the 2020s before the return, as it is anonymized and cannot be traced by the government.

Of course, as soon as Soon-won entered the hypernet administrator mode, as much as he made it, he could see who wrote the article.

[Go to Level 5 Magic Warrior Level 3 Gate.]

[One-day mercenary as a battle-professional mage who went up to the 9th level gate as a ranged dealer

NS.]

[I want to attack the middle level gate of the buff, low-order support wizard.]

This was the reason why Soon-won rushed the hypernet.

He wanted to rescue his comrades himself and get to the gate without going through the magic bureau, and that's happening now.

“Then I should also create a guild.”

Creating a guild was simple.

Show the wizard's license and fill out the guild establishment document and you're done.

“Now, shall we go hunting by choosing only undead dungeons?”

As I was about to leave the guild, a TV set in the Wizards' Association caught my eye.

[This is breaking news. Unidentified monsters are appearing all over the country. According to the Wizards Association, it is not registered in the Monster Encyclopedia... .]

That's weird.

This was the case in 2011 before the return.

because it never happened.

‘I’ll have to check it out.’

once returned home.

I tried calling Ji-tae Choi, but he didn't answer if it was bad.‘Let’s do what I can for now.’

I decided to train for a week when the guild was allowed to be established.

‘What should I do to get to the 8th circle?’

In connection with him, he read 92 books in the Sky Library.

I know what the principle is.

He continuously circulates mana through his body every day, increasing the amount of her magical power.

It is to accumulate mana through abdominal breathing that is inhaled and exhaled.

And I had to get enlightenment.

'The information in the book was helpful, but it lacks conclusiveness.'

The book is not wrong.

If the 6th circle wizard listens to the 7th circle wizard's advice before getting to the 7th circle, it may sound like a floating cloud, but when he actually gets to the 7th circle and thinks back on what he said at that time, it was definitely a very helpful word.

‘You have to go up to see it.’

There are currently ten 8th circle wizards in the world.

There are only ten figures that have been disclosed.

And they called them ten rivers.

‘At the end of the day, getting to the 8th circle is a realization that takes repeated mastery, investment of time, and the last step.’

got up and vacated his seat.

Enlightenment does not come from the corner of the room.

Battle wizards usually fought for their lives and advanced to the next level.

‘Shall we go get something to eat first?’

There was a convenience store built by SW Company not long ago near my house.

‘It’s been a month and I haven’t been there yet.’

It was not an ordinary convenience store.

It is an unmanned convenience store with no employees.

Soon-won wanted to make South Korea a country running unmanned systems.

Unmanned convenience store, unmanned restaurant, unmanned cafe, unmanned gym, unmanned cinema, unmanned bookstore, unmanned mart, unmanned delivery, etc.

To do that, we needed an artificial intelligence robot to replace humans.

For that, a large investment was made in a company that develops robots, and there were some results.

[Please indicate your destination.]

When I boarded the self-driving car, I was asked where I was going.

“SW convenience store.”

[Departs. The destination is 3 minutes away.]

The self-driving car, which Soon-won started selling globally through SW Company, was a complete autonomous vehicle with a missing steering wheel.

When you get to your destination and get out of the car

The car was a system that waited in a nearby parking lot and reappeared when called.

If you want to earn pocket money, you could set it up to use the car as a taxi while not using it, so that people without a car could call and use it and pay for it.

[You have arrived at your destination]

“I’ll get well soon, so I’m waiting for you.”

It is an unmanned convenience store still in trial operation.

Bring your credit card to the door

It was open and I could go inside.

‘Shall we buy some ramen or something?’

There are no employees working in the convenience store.

It was an automatic payment system where dozens of cameras on the ceiling watched customers move, and if you just go out with ramen, you pay automatically.

The vacant seats were sold and a robot appeared and filled them again.

‘If robots work instead of humans and collect taxes on robots, the amount of basic income can be reduced.’

In ancient Rome, nobles worked their entire lives.

Did not do it.

Because all the bad things were done by slaves.

Soon-won wanted to make Korea that way.

He wanted to create a world where robots would work instead of humans and humans would not have to work for the rest of their lives.

‘Who did that? Work is sacred.’

Soon-won didn't think so.

Those were just the words of the establishment to control the common people.

He gives a sufficient salary every month in the country

There were many things that people could do even if they stopped working for the rest of their lives.

He can read a book, exercise, play games, or pursue a hobby of playing an instrument.

You can travel, write, or draw, doing what you want to do for the rest of your life.

He dreamed of such a world.

‘For this to be fully implemented, we need to get rid of all the demons.’

Utopia construction.

That was Soon-won's dream.

♦ 幸 *

A week later, as soon as the permission to establish the guild fell, the hunt began.

He went to the Wizard Association to find only the gate where the undead monsters came out.

"Wait. You want me to be a tank?”

Na Ye-rin was shocked to see Han Seok-cheol's opparts delivered by Soon-won.

She entrusted the armor stolen from Han Seok-cheol to the JW Workshop, and made it work with the highest-grade magic stone attached to it without applying magical power.

"what? So, did you try to eat and play? You have to pay for the food.”

“I waited until the situation calmed down a bit, and then I tried to return to China… .”

“Why in China? You want to go back to the Triad?”

“That is of course… .”

The arena disappeared in an instant while investigating the Cheonwoohoe at Soon-won's order.

There must be guards at the airport or port now, so when it's safe, I plan to join the Triad in China.

“How about quitting right now? You can't go to heaven if you're in a gang like that?"

Soon-won knows Na Ye-rin's karma point.

Of course it was negative.

“I don’t believe in anything like an afterlife.”

“I used to be like that… .”

“ Soon-won. Do you believe in God?”

“I believe there is. It's not a god from religion, but there's no way someone created the universe."

“I believe that even if there is a God, that God is good.

(善) and lack of power, instead of having power, I think it is evil (惡).”

It wasn't the first time I'd heard this from Na Yerin.

It was a common topic in philosophical books.

“Or he might be an outright bystander.”

Even if humans someday advance in science and create a small life, if that creature is as small as an ant, they will be busy living their own life, rather than listening to their stories, even after releasing it to the world.

“I was abandoned by my parents as soon as I was born. I don't even know why it was abandoned. I was already in an orphanage when I was young, as far as I can remember.”

For some reason, Na Yerin told her story.

Shortly after she entered the orphanage, it was discovered that the director embezzled due to corruption, and the director was sentenced to death.

The orphanage is gone.

Na Ye-rin, who came out on the street, did whatever it took to make money, and took her from the triad, where she carefully observed how fast her hands were, and raised her as an assassin.

“After that, I continued to succeed without failing at what I was asked to do, and I was able to rise to the position of the owner of the arena.”

The word eventful was appropriate at this time.

“Then why are you suddenly telling your story?”

“Because you revealed your real name and showed your real identity.”

I didn't show my identity for any other reason.

Soon-won wasn't brazen enough to throw him away, although he clearly knew that Cheonwoohoe was chasing him.

He wanted to be held accountable for whatever he did, as the organization was torn apart.

“Then tell me when you are ready to go back to China. I'll save you for the plane."

There was teleportation magic, so I could send it right away.

"no. I want to watch a little more.”

For Na Ye-rin, Soon-won was very sweet.Aside from becoming a wizard at the age of only 27, it was truly surprising that he came to save himself against the Cheonwoohoe.

'I've been like that ever since. everything

Every time I thought I lost it, I got a new opportunity.’

I thought that the opportunity that came this time was definitely Soon-won.

♦

He mostly went around the lower level gates, so he removed all five dungeons, but collecting the yogis the undead gave was not enough.

‘You can’t activate the Void Key this way.’

The yogi given by Richie at that time

It was powerful.

'It doesn't make sense to compare a lich who said he lived 500 years to something like a skeleton soldier.'

The opportunity soon came.

This is because a dungeon where black dragons appear was discovered.

The problem was that there were not one or two raid teams aiming for this, and Soon-won was able to enter the attack sequence with the help of the association as the top priority.

"for a moment! What are you guys?”

The problem was the Magic Kingdom.

It's the Wizards' Association, founded by Soon-won.

Because it was the same, ranking manipulation was not difficult, but the Magic Bureau was different.

The raid team belonging to the Magic Bureau was not affected by the Wizard Association, so the attack was overlapping.

“This dungeon was first discovered by the Wizards Association. I also completed registration first.”

“It’s not up to me. You said you could go to the Magic Kingdom.”

This kind of thing was not uncommon.

In a way, it could be seen as a battle of strength between the Magic Kingdom and the Wizards' Association.

“Anyway, we officially

I’m here, so I’ll go in first.”

Soon-won brought Na Ye-rin and Isabella with her.

Magic Bureau agent Park Do-hyeon said he couldn't lose, and he followed right after him.

"let's go! We have to catch it first!”

About 30 raid teams rushed into the gate.

Kang-min Jo, who was finally following in, moved his footsteps, and suddenly his eyes fell on a tree next to the gate.

'Smells sweet... .'

black apple.

It was the first fruit I had ever seen.

Unknowingly, he reached out his hand and brought it to his mouth.

Wow!

Originally, he wasn't stupid enough to bring the first fruit he saw right away, but the smell was too strong.

He ate the apple with a hazy mind.

“Ugh!”

Kang-min Jo's waist was bent like a bow.

“Aaaaaaaaah!”

The pain was so great that I fell to the floor.

He unknowingly rolled to the floor.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

Jo Kang-min, who had been screaming for a long time, struggling in pain, suddenly stopped standing tall.

“Successful.”

Jo Kang-min stood up from his seat and he looked down at his body.

He moved his body to and fro as if in a strange way, and as soon as he got used to it, he shook off his clothes to get rid of the dust.

“The synchronicity is not bad.”

The gate was spread out in front of me.

He followed his comrades who entered first and followed his steps.

[I entered the gate.]

[The gate is contaminated... of the realm… Chic... .]
