I Alone Going To The Tower

Chapter 118

“Yes, good job!”

All 1 team went out. None of them left the interview room with a bright face. As soon as the interview was over, I looked at Jeong Jeong-jin.

“Wow, Seo Jin-ah. Where did you get those materials?”

“It’s not that great. With Ea-nim’s help, I looked at the past affiliations of the main characters, test records, reference checks, criminal histories, etc.”

Jinbo-ra, who was watching at that time, asked carefully.

“…Hey, Seojin-san. It’s not that I did anything wrong. Isn’t it a bit harsh?”

Even though it was a pressure interview, Jeong Seo-jin was intense. Because she used to casually dig into her opponent’s wounds and watch their reaction. Jeong Seo-jin raised her glasses with her sullen face.

“As I have said before, I do not trust anyone except the Lord and all of you here.”

When such an answer came back, she rather coughed ‘Hmmmm’ at the Jinbora side who asked the question.

“This is a place to select a person who will become a new member of the Matoap. No matter how careful you are with this kind of thing, it is not enough. I will definitely filter the sprouts so that there is no fall behind.”

“After all, Seojin is reassuring.”

Jeong Seo-jin has a good background and her abilities are excellent, but she has a more devoted mind than anyone else. She is willing to be the villain for everyone.

I feel really lucky to have a guy like this supporting me.

“Enter the next two groups!”

This time, three women and two men came in. They sat down with tense faces.

“This is Cha Do-yeon.”

She was a well-dressed, straight-looking woman.

“I always take responsibility for what I do…”

“To make up for the shortcomings in a positive way…”

It is almost standard for an interview to come out with answers. I’ve prepared a shield and mana arrow for magic, but it’s at a decent level. Accuracy and speed are right in a 5:5 ratio.

“This is Jo Il-woo.”

said a man in his 30s.

“When do you learn circle 2 magic?”

At first, I asked about the magic of the next circle, especially about the fire magic. Rather, he is the type of person who asks questions to the interviewers in the interview room.

When asked to cast magic, he gives excuses over and over again and begins to talk about elemental 2nd circle magic, saying, ‘I made the 1st circle, but I specialized in the flame technique’. This is typical self-consciousness. it is dropout

“I’m Heeyeon Yoo.”

There was no particular difference in personality or career, but it failed to create a magic circle one after another.

In Daeva’s eyes, her circles were not circles, but almost like bumpy wheels. This is a case in which I was in a hurry, so I brushed up on the basics and tried the first step magic first.

This person is also a loser.

“Ah, who are you, judge me!”

Somehow, it finally came out. The best nuisance case in the interview room.

A certified level 4 veteran hunter screams.

“Oh, I’ve been making a circle! Look!”

“I’m sorry, sir.”

I smiled quietly in response.

“You are disqualified because you do not meet the standard.”

“Ah, let go. This makes people mad again! Hey, Kim Yoo-shin! Do you have the same public figures like this? How many riders are you? Why can’t I…!”

Make sure you do this kind of thing.

“Senior. Excuse me, but what is your affiliation?”

“What? Why now…!”

“Oh, you’re a citizen guild. That’s great.”

In his head, EA sent his guild and representative number. I immediately grabbed my phone and called.

“What! What! What are you going to do on the phone?”

The hunter, who still couldn’t grasp the atmosphere, screamed. You will hear a ringing tone a few times, then you will hear a click and an incoming call.

“Yes. CEO Yoon. I am Kim Yoo-shin. Yes, yes, how are you? Oh, heat resistance potion? I will place an order next week without any problems. Yes.”

At that moment, the expression of the 4th-level hunter freezes. I said while looking at him.

“But you have to take care of the Hunters below.”

It was great speed. In less than 10 minutes, the hunters of Citizen rushed out and took the nuisance hunter. CEO Yoon himself came and apologized, and the time was again delayed.

That’s how the war-like morning interview ended.

“Wow…”

Meals are packed lunches. Jin-Ra took the canned mesyl drink that was served as dessert and drank it gully.

“Haha, I didn’t know it would be this hard. It’s more than I imagined.”

“That’s it.”

“If he hadn’t returned half of it, he would have really died.”

“Sister! Oppa! Cheer up!”

Eunsol smiled and cheered as if it was fun. I opened her lunch set and stroked her hair.

She was also doing her job properly as her judge. The theoretical magic knowledge learned while making the golem was almost at the level of an expert, and the applicants, who were relieved in their hearts when a little girl asked a question, were often struck by an unexpected blow and overworked.

Sometimes my face turns red and I say, ‘What does this guy know!’ One volunteer who had cast was robbed of his soul by Jeong Jeong-jin.

“Hey, but why are there so many people who are such a nuisance and low quality? Why are you being so rude when they ask you to vote?”

“It’s probably because it’s a special case interview with players.”

Jeong Jeong-jin also took a plum drink and went straight into his mouth.

“It’s different from getting a job in a company or a guild. It’s just a place to select a guild member under the top Lord. There are established players who have been strangely dissatisfied from the beginning, and when they fail the interview, their dissatisfaction is expressed in anger.”

“It’s really funny.”

“I’m sure I can handle any number of lousy bastards like that.”

I took a bite of the seaweed soup that came with the lunch box. It was too hot, so I put it aside.

“There are so many people who are desperate for this interview. Because they are mentally depressed, they tremble at the interview, make mistakes, get upset, and then emotionally collapse.

Non-combatants are like that. I understand their dire need better than anyone.

I don’t know how many people I’ve seen only cry during the interview.

Every time they make a mistake, people’s faces become empty as if they lost the world.

And every time they make that expression, I keep glancing at the window.

I feel like I’m about to jump right out.

Scenes of people jumping into the window play over and over in my head… … .

“Wow!”

Suddenly, Jinbora pushed her face closer, and I leaned back in horror. The seaweed soup I had put away earlier crashes into my arm and spills.

“Seniors!”

“…Uh, huh?”

Jinbo-ra, who was looking at me with a straight color, suddenly smiles bashfully.

“If you’re having a hard time first, this doesn’t mean anything, right?”

“……”

This project also had the goal of my mental care.

Due to the Han Yun-jung incident, I was obsessed with her terrifying helplessness and guilt to the extent that it was difficult to cast magic, and I spread her magic all over the world for the purpose of reviving arcane fights like her.

she’s right If I ever feel guilty here again, I’ll be dumbfounded. I let out a sigh and calmed my emotions.

“Thank you.”

“Hehe. Now, the manager has to take care of the mentality of the matopoirs! Addition of work.”

“Thank you for taking care of me, but why are you suddenly poking in your face?”

“Yes? Oh, that’s it, of course, I was trying to get rid of the soul of senior with my beauty.”

It was Jinbora, who swept her long hair like a model and babbled nonsense. That’s why it’s hard for kids who know they’re pretty.

“Honestly, were you excited?”

“I saw pores.”

“Seo, this is your senior!”

Loud laughter broke out. Alchemia staff who came for the interview couldn’t contain their laughter. Only Jin-Ra’s face turned red and she hurriedly pulled out her hand mirror.

“The interview in the afternoon will be tougher. Let’s all do our best.

“Yep!”

* * *

In the afternoon, more applicants came. Jinbora and her Alchemia Her staff are guiding them into the basement auditorium.

‘My head is pounding.’

I went out of the building to catch some wind for a while. At the back of the building, old outdoor units were blowing hot air, and empty cans and cigarette butts were scattered all over the place.

But there was someone other than me. A man about my age was beckoning to the air while looking at his smartphone, and looking at the direction of the hand gesture, he seemed to be practicing a magic circle.

Then the man raised his head and made eye contact with me.

“……Ah.”

it was someone I knew

Choi Eun-oh. He and I are friends who joined the academy as non-combatants along with Han Yun-jung. She didn’t make it to third grade and she was told she was expelled for missing grades. You’re here for a wizard interview.

Choi Eun-oh was several times more surprised than me.

“…Uh, um.”

Choi Eun-oh’s eyes turn wildly.

He looked at me and thought about how to treat me. For the guy who was too embarrassed, I opened my mouth first.

“Wow, jjasik! How much is this?”

When I pretended to know him first, Choi Eun-oh’s face widened.

“…Ah, hello! Yoo, Yoo, Yoo-shin! Haha.”

Choi Eun-oh let out an awkward laugh.

I approached him and put my arms around his neck in a welcoming way.

“It’s been a long time! Why didn’t you contact me?”

“…ah. I think you’re going to be very busy.”

The boy was visibly nervous.

“You’re here for our interview, aren’t you? Are you going to keep working as a hunter?”

“…Ah, yes.”

Me and Eun-oh Choi briefly exchanged updates. He was expelled from the academy, working part-time while preparing for the civil service exam, and it seems that he has been practicing hard since I revealed his magic. He also said that magic seemed to suit his aptitude.

“…I didn’t know you would be such a great person.”

Choi Eun-oh rolled her eyes and said.

“If you’re a certified 3rd grade hunter, the whole world treats you like a hunter. Actually, I’m in a position where I can’t even make eye contact… It’s amazing.”

“Hey, don’t say that. Actually, not much has changed.”

In a short time, the gap between me and Eun-oh Choi widened. Even though they were the same class, Eun-oh Choi performed much better than me at the time of admission.

He had a flair for weapon skills, so his grades were top among non-fighting fights, and his combat friends even asked him for advice on weapon techniques.

Besides, he had a good combat girlfriend who was good and pretty. All of my non-combatants admired Choi Eun-oh, and I was one of those who envied him.

There was a time when I had the courage to ask him to teach me about martial arts, but Choi Eun-oh said in one word.

‘… … you?’

I still vividly remember the expression he made at that time. Then, when my combat friends called me, I quickly ran away saying that I would teach them later. My request was ignored. At that time, Choi Eun-oh was a person living in a different world from me.

However, even for Choi Eun-oh, the walls of the non-combat world were harsh. In fact, in the first year, there was not much difference in grades because the utilization of unique abilities in combat and non-combat systems was low.

But as time went on, he got stuck in a wall, and his girlfriend and fighter friends were growing rapidly. The gap widened more and more.

After two semesters, no one asked him about his weapon skills. Choi Eun-oh’s girlfriend eventually met a third-year senior in the combat field.

Choi Eun-oh attacked the scene where the two were walking hand in hand, but at that time, the girlfriend said this.

‘Then let’s break up. sorry.’

My emotions were agitated, and I wasn’t even ‘quite’ to do that. Even my new boyfriend didn’t react sensitively to Choi Eun-oh. It’s just a ‘what are you going to do’ reaction.

Yes. The world we just lived in was different.

Choi Eun-oh wandered for a long time with this thing, and his grades naturally crawled to the bottom.

Meanwhile, Han Yun-jeong and I tried to break through the wall like crazy, and Choi Eun-oh was stripped of even his position as a non-combat tower.

He eventually was expelled from the academy without being promoted to third grade.

‘It wasn’t like this guy originally.’

To the extent that I once admired him, he was an arcane fighter, but he was full of confidence in everything he did.

But now he couldn’t even make eye contact with me. Hehehe smiles and replies to my story, but his limbs are trembling. Now he and I live in a different world.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“What does Park Han-young do for a living?”

Park Han-young is a non-combatant friend who was expelled without being promoted to 3rd grade together with Choi Eun-oh.

She said, “She must’ve been working on a scavenger hunt. I recently started doing magic because I flirted with her.”

“……Ah.”

“Ugh, I’m sorry about Yunjeong. My girlfriend…”

“I’ll tell you in advance, we’ve never been together.”

Still, as she talked, the atmosphere that had been rigid in her gradually loosened.

Well, honestly, I don’t have any good feelings for this guy. The memory of being ignored by him at that time still remains as a humiliation.

what though I think it’s too boring to use my position to press or embarrass this guy just because of something like that.

Rather, this guy is trying to get up again after overcoming the pain. Personally, I want to support you.

“Eun-oh.”

“Yes.”

“Have you met the interview requirements? Complete circle 1 and two magic.”

Choi Eun-oh’s pupils began to shake rapidly.

“Uh, um. Shh, the shield is done… Mana Arrow is still…”

I sighed a little and explained the situation. All those who did not meet the interview requirements in the auditorium will be sent back. And if you don’t meet the conditions in the actual interview, you will block the next test itself.

Choi Eun-oh’s face gradually turned to earth color as she heard my words.

“I’m talking for you. I want you to come back today.”

No matter how close you are, you can’t bring your personal feelings into an interview. If the standards are not met, you are simply rejected.

Choi Eun-oh bowed her head.

“instead.”

I took out my business card and put it in his hand.

“It’s not for work, it’s my direct line. If you have any questions about magic, feel free to ask.”

“…Yoo, Yoo-shin.”

His shoulders trembled with excitement.

“Oh, thank you. Really.”

“What do you do with friends?”

“…Actually, I hesitated until the morning whether I should go to the interview. What if you recognize me? What if I just go and get rejected. What if I get retaliation because I still have bad feelings for me… Ha. I feel so ashamed and pathetic about myself.”

He took out his wallet and carefully placed my business card in it.

“Thank you so much. Really. Really. Really… I will not forget this grace even if I die.”

That was then. The back door swung open and Jin-Woo ran out.

“Child, sunbaenim! You were surprised that you couldn’t see it all of a sudden! All the applicants gathered in the auditorium!”

“Yeah. I’ll go right away.”

I followed Jinbo-ra to the door, turned to Choi Eun-oh, and said,

“cheer up.”

Choi Eun-oh just repeated the words thank you.
