Newbie Life of a Former Ranker

chapter 8



“Huh!”

Thanks to coming to my senses in time, I avoided kissing the floor.

Was it five days ago when you last rested properly?

Should I log out at this point and then take a break?

Do-jin, who raised his head while thinking about it, stiffened as it was.

“what? This is a place I can’t come to now… … ?”

This is because the place he was standing in was an area he could never enter.

Each of the stored items is protected by a separate dimension severing technique, and all of them are at least relic grade or higher.

It couldn’t have been a floor where a 1-star wizard could come.

Dojin wandered around in a daze.

Then I stopped in front of a familiar, old, ominous-looking book.

“It’s an ancient cursed stand.”

The ‘Book of Ancient Curses’, an item that allows you to learn powerful ancient curse magic.

The reason Dojin was familiar with this book was simple.

Because I saw it once when I visited this place in my previous life.

Of course, even then, I hadn’t touched this book.

‘Who was the one who got f*cked with that?’

I know that one ranker literally became an asshole because the circuit was completely destroyed while using the curse magic learned from each other of ancient curses, but how could I do something crazy to touch that?

Wizards are the most neutral of all professions that deal with magic.

That is why magicians are the most versatile sorcerers.

However, the most neutral wizard was like a white drawing paper, so it was easy to be dyed in any color.

It doesn’t show at first, but the more and more you learn and use the magic, the circuit is transformed, and as a result, the areas you are specialized in and the areas you are vulnerable to are divided.

If this went to the extreme, he could become an idiot because he learned the ancient curse magic incorrectly and the magic circuit was broken, or he could become a half-ass who can only use destructive magic due to circuit deformation like Do-jin in his previous life.

Of course, Do-jin had already seen, heard, and experienced things, so there was nothing to suffer in this area.

“Anyway, the fact that it exists means that this place is on the 5th floor or higher.”

okay. The important thing is not the ancient book of curse itself.

It’s important that this ancient magic book is kept on the 5th floor.

The 5th floor of Manli Seo High School was a place where entry was permitted only when one had basic abilities as a wizard and, in addition to that, completed all kinds of quests with the momentum to get rid of the liver and gall in El Tomagia.

But now, Do-jin is standing here on the subject of a 1-star wizard.

Why?

The trouble was short-lived.

“It must be because of this ring, right?”

A wooden ring that Shion gave you.

Perhaps this ring was playing the role of a master key.

‘… … .’

However, it is all useless to Do-jin now.

Either here or higher than here, you can’t touch anything anyway.

Just in case, Do-jin brought a wooden ring to the magic circle that sealed the sword that looked the safest.

‘… … .’

I rubbed it hard without even knowing it.

“Well. I can’t either.”

The result is also unsuccessful.

The tree ring seemed to only remove restrictions on the place.

Do-jin licked his lips and looked at the books, magic materials, and weapons of enormous value scattered around him.

It’s a piece of cake, but I can’t take my eyes off it because I know that each one of them is more expensive than most castles.

However, I couldn’t just waste my time here.

“Still, opportunities like this don’t come along often… Shall we go up as far as we can go?”

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

The opportunity to obtain such a master key will not be common.

The limit I could go to in my previous life was the 7th floor.

Even the user who visited the highest floor reached only the 8th floor.

Maybe I didn’t want to waste the chance to see a higher place.

‘It might be helpful later if I look ahead to see what’s there.’

Having made up her mind, Do-jin moved on.

The image that comes to mind to receive guidance is a memory that I want to forget.

The place changes in an instant.

Invaluable treasures pass between the rapidly changing backgrounds.

My footsteps stopped in a corner of the 7th floor of the Library of Manli. It was a space with a deserted city in the background.

It was a place where the ‘spirit of destruction’ was stored, since it was impossible to separate and bring only the items.

This place was also the middle point of the hidden quest that Do-jin challenged in his previous life by putting in luck, money, and effort at the same time.

Do-jin looked at the demon sealed in the middle of the ruins by dozens of dimensional bulkheads.

Just looking at it made me feel dirty.

It was inevitable that Do-jin was finished as a wizard because he absorbed him and obtained the half hidden piece.

Beyond being in a bad mood, it wouldn’t be strange if he suffered from PTSD.

‘I really thought I was crazy at the time.’

As soon as he opened his eyes, when he saw that all magic skills except pure attack magic had disappeared from the skill window, Do-jin felt that his eyes were really dark.

I’m not kidding, I wondered if I should risk everything and go diving because there is a life reset button under the Han River.

anyway.

That hidden piece is a hidden piece, but at the same time it is defective and half-made.

Even if you only knew the story behind the story of the idiot destruction mad wizard who created the vengeful spirit of destruction who tried to create complete destructive magic, died from over-deformation and regurgitation of the circuit, and was swallowed up by the magic he was making, he became like that. As soon as I saw it, I would have run away with all my might.

No, he must have brought the hidden quest in the first place.

‘… I didn’t know that it was actually the starting point of the main quest, not a reward for completing the quest.’

It’s not some kind of X-Piece piracy-mad golga guy.

‘hahahahaha, look for it if you can find it! I took off your limbs and hid them somewhere in the world!’ How dumbfounded I was when I saw the quest window with the same crazy sound written on it.

In the end, Do-jin couldn’t find any way to solve the ensuing quest, and the magic circuit was transformed and hardened, and he could only use attack magic, but the fuel economy was terrible, so he had to live as a wizard who would overload his magic circuit and collapse after using it a few times.

But not anymore.

“It was such a f*cking thing to be together, and let’s never see each other again. It’s better if you go to one of the bastards I don’t like.”

Do-jin stopped the nightmare of the past.

And walked without regret.

More up. as high as possible.

El Tomagia, no… The secrets hidden by Shion Grace, one of the greatest wizards in the history of Rostania, to me.

After reading Dojin’s heart, Manri Seogo began guiding him.

However, from the 8th floor onwards, it was impossible to know what the sealed object was because the sealing was so powerful that it was impossible to say anything, or because of the colorful energy that filled the dimensional barrier.

However, it is impossible to resent the sealing itself.

Without that, they would be swept away by the violent torrent of mana they spewed out and turned into dust and driven out of this place.

“Then it’s no use trying to go higher anyway.”

Dojin pondered for a while.

I thought I’d go downstairs again and read books that a 1-star wizard could touch until I ran out of food.

But it was kind of disappointing to go back like this.

Still, opportunities are opportunities, but I thought that even if I skip the middle, I should take the last point and go down.

“Okay, just take a look and go downstairs to read it.”

Having made up her mind, Do-jin walked again.

The image I had this time was very concise.

end of this space.

The last place where there is nowhere else to go.

This time, Manri Seo High School kindly guided Do-jin, who was carrying his master’s ring.

where it has arrived.

“… This.”

It was a place that looked like a large room in some ancient ruins.

All the walls were carved with geometric patterns, nothing else.

Don’t you have anything to keep?

Feeling curious, Dojin turned his head around.

However, no matter how much I looked around, nothing caught my eye in the heterogeneous space.

‘Is there a door to another room?’

It was the moment when I took my foot off thinking, ‘Should I feel for the wall?’

Wei Ying-

Hundreds of thousands of magic circles appeared in the middle of the room.

No, can that be called a magic circle?

So intricately intertwined and moving like crazy?

Before I had time to organize my thoughts, a black cube appeared like an abyss, as if blooming from the center of a magic circle.

Then a mechanical voice was heard.

【Detecting new intelligent life.】

【Initiate identification and search for detected object.】

【Search results for ‘destiny’. No information about that entity.】

【Recognized as a new book of truth accessible object.】

The black cube draws arbitrary conclusions.

and.

Pacan.

The magic circles surrounding the black cube began to break and expand one after another.

Light particles scattered like illusions and geometric patterns filling the room.

And a torrent of explosive power hit Dojin.

* * *

In fact, the Library of Manri was the result of a magic to seal a dungeon.

An unidentified dungeon that encroached on the surrounding space from the moment it was discovered and expanded its territory infinitely.

Shion took advantage of the dungeon’s property of infinitely expanding space and sealed it, and used the resulting space to create the Library of Manli.

However, the identity of the dungeon was never found out.

Is it a legacy of an ancient civilization or something that has flowed in from another world?

Even what kind of secrets are hidden in the center of the absolute seal that does not even allow access to certain areas.

However, the secret was unraveled.

‘… … .’

Standing in the center of a dungeon he had never entered before, Shion recalled the scene he had seen indirectly.

“why… … .”

Why was the seal broken?

No, it wasn’t even that the seal was broken.

The moment the Regenian set foot here, the seal was still perfectly protecting this place.

‘It felt like only that Regenian was exceptionally unstoppable.’

That means that the Regenian met the conditions to pass the sealing barrier that protected this place.

What is it?

‘There is a high probability that it was not an exceptional condition that only applies to a single entity. It must be a more comprehensive condition.’

Wouldn’t some answer come out if we investigated that Regenian even now?

It was swept away by the mana storm that erupted here and turned to dust, but as long as it’s a Regenian, it will come back to life in a few days.

There’s nothing you can’t do if you want to investigate… … .

The moment when the archmage, who was expanding his thinking, was overly curious.

Saa-

Golden ripples rippled before her eyes.

Also known as the Light of the World Law.

It was the light that appeared and adjusted when the probability of the worldview of LOST was severely damaged for any reason.

A light that NPCs could neither see nor perceive surrounded Shion Grace.

And her memories begin to change.

First of all, the process of creating the Library of Manli has been fixed.

It wasn’t that the mysterious dungeon was sealed, but that it was created in the process of preventing the aftermath of its destruction.

The memory of Regenian reaching the deepest part of the Manli Library was also erased.

Instead, the memory is newly sculpted by sipping wine that does not suit the taste while remembering a colleague.

In this way, the world has completely erased the link between Dojin and the ancient ruins.
