Chapter 943

#943. Cheer up.

“There is nothing impossible in magic.”

[That’s what I know, but…]

After meeting in London for the first time and becoming disciples, Yuna-kyung learned everything from myths and legends to life’s wisdom from Sir.

And, of course, the most learned was magic.

she is the queen of magic

She was a great witch who had lived since the Silver Age.

Even a spell Yuna-gyeong learned lightly was often regarded as a legend by modern witches.

So she knew.

What a great witch Sir is.

It just didn’t really come out on top.

From the ghosts of the Liberation Brigade to the World Federation Lords and Sword Masters.

The reason why Limon and the Seven Dragons were able to win against such formidable enemies was because Sir gave all sorts of advice and support from the rear.

But…

[Witch sister told me that magic is omnipotent, but not omnipotent, right?]

Magic is never free.

The more powerful and mysterious magic is, the more expensive it is.

There was a reason why magic, the most outstanding in terms of application and versatility among all mysteries, fell after the Silver Age ended.

Not to mention, the magic Sir is currently researching is something unprecedented beyond even myths.

It was a miracle that would frighten even the gods.

It was natural to question its feasibility.

At Yuna-gyeong’s point, Sir shrugged his shoulders.

“It can’t be helped. Because now I have to challenge that omnipotence.”

When Quetzalcoatl was attacked.

She was the one who blocked the monster wave and kept the sword in check.

It was indeed a majesty worthy of the legendary Queen of Magic, but Shire, the person in charge, had a different idea.

It was because he felt that an era had opened where not only ordinary people but also absolutes could die in vain.

That is why she has been engrossed in her research since then, forgetting about erosion.

In order to overcome this hopeless crisis, it really needed a power close to omnipotence.

More than anything…

“Besides, I always told you.”

[What?]

“Magic is interesting because it can make the impossible possible.”

[…That sounds like a witch sister.]

“Whoops, I’m just doing what I can.”

It must be painful to study all kinds of old books and repeat failures while neglecting even eating and sleeping.

It seems that he is lucky to be given the opportunity to challenge new impossible things at his age.

Take a moment to stare at the smiling Sir.

Yuna-kyung suddenly muttered.

[Is this something you can do?]

“Why is that?”

[I thought everyone was doing their best.]

It wasn’t just Sir.

Seven princesses preparing for war.

Limondo risked his life to destroy the dungeon.

The clan of the Seven Dragons, the shaman of the Continental Guardian, or the gods and priests of the Holy League who help the princesses.

Those who knew even a little what would happen in the future were preparing for the future by pouring all their abilities into it.

“Of course it is. In this war, regardless of victory or defeat, the fate of the world and the continuation of mankind are at stake.”

It was not wrong.

No matter what kind of absolute.

When the world perishes, it is all over.

No matter what feelings and circumstances we had, it was natural for us to cooperate regardless of each other’s interests for now.

So it was.

After a short silence, Yuna-kyung opened her beak.

[…Yes? After all, it’s right to do whatever you can, right?]

“The choice is free, but wouldn’t it be better? At least you will have fewer regrets doing and failing than doing nothing.”

After opening a new spellbook and reinforcing spells and magic circles on the scroll, listen to Sir’s appropriate answer and think again for a while.

Yuna-kyung suddenly raised her head.

[Witch sister, can I go on a business trip for a few days?]

That moment.

Sir paused.

Even a minute or a second is a waste of time in this situation.

The absence of an outstanding assistant like Yuna-gyeong was a big problem enough to interfere with her research.

However, Sir did not dismiss the request as an absurd joke.

I just laughed while looking at Yuna-kyung blankly.

“Come on.”

[…Yes, I’ll be back.]

Yuna-kyung didn’t bother to express her gratitude to Sir for willingly allowing her to go on a business trip, nor did she explain in detail where she was going or what she was going to do.

After slightly bowing his head.

It was just phasing and lightly crossed the space and disappeared.

And seeing the place where Yuna-gyeong disappeared, Sir muttered quietly.

“You are so young.”

Just a year and a few months ago.

Until the first time we met, I didn’t even know magic spells, and I couldn’t even fly properly by myself.

I feel deeply moved by the fact that the baby bluebird has become a full-fledged witch.

Shir laughed.

Why is the growth of young people so dazzling?

It was a mystery that even she, who had lived for a long time as an immortal, could not understand.

Maybe youth itself is magic.

Especially in that you can have an endless passion to try again and again even if you fail and make mistakes.

“Cheer up, darling. I will do my best too.”

However, if challenges are the privilege of youth, it is the privilege and duty of elders to lead and support such young people.

in order not to lose to the disciple.

Shir put on the glasses he had put down beside him and went out fixing the scroll again.

* * *

‘…why did this happen?’

Don’t be afraid of life.

Unhappiness and good fortune go hand in hand.

Sometimes the best choices lead to the worst outcomes, and sometimes unexpected mistakes turn out to be beneficial.

‘Obviously my choice was not wrong. It’s better to struggle than to perish like this.’

Still, he believed.

That his choice was at least not the worst.

With the World Federation already collapsing and even the remnants remaining, it was definitely luck that I was able to join the Seven Dragons for the last time.

Because it was to leave at least some hope in this country, which would have been the only way to die.

Of course, that’s just a possibility.

Isn’t it enough to reverse the already declining fortunes of the country?

The country’s situation would continue to deteriorate, and it would take a lot of time and effort to regain its former status.

But it didn’t matter.

Even if it is unreasonable at the time.

Leaving hope for future generations.

As the commander-in-chief of a country… no, it was a natural thing for a person living in the present era.

At least he thought so, and that’s why he was able to squeeze the passion to leave even a little more hope.

…until the monster wave happened.

‘Yeah, everything got weird from then on.’

Suddenly, starlight covered the sky.

After the dungeon pours out monsters.

The world has become a mess.

Of course, his country, the Republic of Korea, could not escape the chaos.

Fortunately, it was a strong player country and had an advantage over other countries in blocking monster waves geographically.

However, the confusion became a fatal blow to the Republic of Korea, which was already plagued with all sorts of economic problems.

Thanks to that, Shin Myung-woon was like dying.

This is because the support rating, which was already at the bottom, has fallen further.

It’s something no country in the world expected, so why is it their own fault for not being prepared for it?

For Shin Myung-woon, it was so amazing that he couldn’t even feel unfair.

‘Why is the Seven Dragons harassing me in the midst of this?’

Besides, bad things come all at once.

In the midst of such confusion, the Chilryonghoe, which had been looking forward to it, instead of helping, suddenly requested various cooperation.

Evacuation of selected people.

Set up shelters by region.

Redemption of high-level players.

Construction of defense lines and military maintenance, etc.

The words were a request for cooperation, and even the term “interference in internal affairs” was laughable.

However, Shin Myung-woon had no choice.

It wasn’t just because he couldn’t let go as soon as he held the hands of the Seven Dragons while working as a spy at best.

“—The world is changing.”

name as the president.

Shin Myung-woon was feeling it.

The intention of the instructions given by the Seven Dragons.

Massive movements around the world, etc.

A certain flow that all of them show at first glance.

Of course, having barely formed a cooperative relationship with the Seven Dragons, he did not know the truth about the Constellations or what would happen in the future.

But how miserable the world will become from now on.

And it was only known that the flow would not be able to go against the power of not only one individual, but also the nation.

If that was possible in the first place, the Seven Dragons, who had already gained world supremacy, would not be in such a hurry.

“Whether or not we can adapt to this change will determine the future of our country…”

It would be fortunate if only the rise and fall were decided.

However, he predicts that if he fails to keep up with the trend of the times, his downfall will not end.

The collapse of the country at best.

In the worst case, it will be completely destroyed.

Of course it’s speculation.

It might have been a paranoia caused by excessive work and stress with uncertain information and evidence.

At least the doctor would say so.

Still, he didn’t stop.

No matter how lean it is, it was the president’s job to find and prepare for ways to protect the people when the sky collapsed.

[There are claims that the monster wave is a conspiracy of the Seven Dragons. What do you think?]

[It’s not a claim, it’s a fact! Take a look, isn’t there a picture of the Seven Dragons gathered at the place where the monster wave started?] [

Some say that the Seven Dragons went there to stop the monster wave.]

[That’s an absurd conspiracy! If they knew the monster wave would happen, they should have warned them in advance. Does it make sense that only they knew?] [

Certainly so…]

[And look at what they’ve done now! Isn’t this all an act of strengthening the ruling power? Now, the Seven Dragons are trying to revive the Age of Bronze!]

[Hmm, that statement seems a bit dangerous.]

[Shouldn’t I say something dangerous? The traitorous president who joined hands with the Chilryonghoe might be like that, but I never…!]

…Every time I see something like this on the news, I wonder what I’m doing.

More so in that the number of people who seriously believe in such conspiracy theories and stage impeachment protests against themselves has increased several times compared to before.

“I am a traitor… her.”

after laughing out loud.

Shin Myung-wun muttered quietly.

“Do you want to have a power struggle to this point?”

Wouldn’t the general public know?

If you were a member of the National Assembly, you wouldn’t be unaware of the seriousness of the situation, even if not as much as yourself.

Shin Myeong-woon smiled bitterly as he recalled the behavior of lawmakers who were eager to impeach him and gain power.

“No, maybe it’s more like this because it’s the situation.”

It’s only now that I’m being cursed at.

Lee Sang joined hands with the Seven Dragons.

As time goes on, his position will become stronger.

If chaos comparable to a war breaks out, it would not be impossible for the Seven Dragons to hold power for a long time with the authority of the Seven Dragons.

So they run amok.

If you don’t bring him down now, you may never have a chance in the future.

Whether it’s the worry about dictatorship that’s underlying it.

Whether it’s his ambition to become president.

There was no need to differentiate.

The essence of a person with power is to do anything to gain even a little bit of power.

No, because it was instinct.

I don’t know if he would have been like that if he wasn’t the president right now.

“…I can see why the swordsman kept away from power all his life.”

After a brief admiration for the hero’s wisdom, he was able to leave without hesitation because he had neither received nor had anything in this country.

Shin Myung-woon turned off the TV.

And when I think about this country, I think it wouldn’t be too bad if it just perished.

With a much lighter mind, he focused on his political affairs again.

I don’t want to.

Still, you have to do it yourself.

to do what you can.
