Episode 89

“Is this a failure again?”

Baekrin let out a deep sigh.

“Yes. I also failed to apply the 5th circle enchantment.”

Said the assistant next to him.

“Haa- I really want what the hell is the problem.”

The assistant glanced at him.

Dark circles that descended deep into her very tousled hair.

I haven’t been able to sleep well for the past few days.

“Me. Teacher?”

“Uh. Say.”

Baek Rin didn’t even look at the assistant and said

I’m just looking at the magic structure diagram I wrote down to enchant the artifact.

“Isn’t it amazing just to be able to enchant the 4th circle?”

“….”

“Currently, there are less than 10 people in Korea who can cast 4 circle magic. That alone is great.”

“Stop.”

Bai Lin turned his head and looked at his assistant.

“If you were just going to be satisfied with being at the top in Korea, you wouldn’t have left the ‘Samhwa’ group.”

“…..”

“I really want to prove it to that father. Even if I’m not in the ‘Samhwa’ group, I can succeed with just my abilities.”

“….”

“To do that, isn’t it natural to be the best in the world, not the best in Korea?”

Baekrin was the eldest of three siblings of the chairman of the ‘Samhwa’ group.

However, despite being the eldest son, he had no interest in the succession of management.

He is only interested in enchanting artifacts.

So, he worked on it.

His father looked at him disapprovingly.

He said that if he didn’t intend to run the company, he wouldn’t be able to give Bai Lin a dime.

In the end, Baek Rin had no choice but to leave the house.

And he really wanted to prove it.

That the path I chose is correct. That my father’s coercion was wrong.

Diriring-

That moment.

I got a call from my assistant.

“Yes.. Yes.. I understand.”

The assistant answered the phone and hung up abruptly.

From noble mtl dot com

“Baekrin. Customers who have made reservations now keep calling us to complain..”

“Tell me you won’t meet a single person until you put Circle 5 magic on the artifact.”

“No.. But Baekrin-nim.”

These days he is confined to his private laboratory and has no contact with the outside world.

He only has one interest right now.

Applying circle 5 magic to an artifact.

Other than that, he doesn’t care at all.

“It’s not that I don’t understand Baekrin-nim’s feelings either… Giving circle 5 magic to an artifact is a long-lost skill, isn’t it?”

Once upon a time when magic was booming.

At that time, there was a technology that could enchant artifacts with circle 5 magic.

However, after going through several great wars, the technology has now been lost.

“…That”

Even Baekrin could not speak.

In fact, Baek Rin himself could only vaguely feel this while working on this research for several months.

That it is impossible to restore technology lost in ancient times.

The more he clung to his research, the more he felt that it was impossible.

Ugh-

This time Baekrin’s phone rang.

He looked at the phone nervously.

“It should be blocked. I must have told you not to contact me on the status message… “

Then his expression suddenly relaxed.

Then I urgently received a phone call.

“Uh. Our little brother what’s the matter?”

Even nervous, his expression melted in an instant.

The voice completely changed to a voice mixed with charm.

“Uh. Uh. If my younger brother asks for something like that, I have to listen to him unconditionally. Rather, when should my brother eat?”

“Uh…Uh? I don’t have time… Still, I want to see my younger brother’s face, right?”

He said in a charming voice.

“Eh.. Yes. Okay. If Jiyoon is you, there is nothing you can do about it. But Jiyoon, is this the first time you ask someone for a favor? Who is this? Are you a lover? Or friend?”

Tittittitti-

Before the conversation could be heard over the phone, his phone hung up.

He made a sullen expression.

“It really doesn’t suit you.”

The professor shook his head.

He was a fool who only knew his sister.

***

“Uh. Just sit comfortably.”

Baekrin waved at me.

I sat on the sofa across from him.

“This is the first time Jiyoon asked someone? Hmm-“

He looked at me with interest in his eyes.

“Ah. Not really a relationship, just friends. Friend.”

“Hmm- Really? You mean that? You are Jiyoon’s friend..”

He said, leaning back in his chair.

“Originally, he’s the kind of person who hates asking someone for a favor, saying it’s a debt.”

“…”

“By the way, you seem to be thinking of you as very important, asking me to look after you, even asking me to do so, right? What are you two doing?”

He said with a mischievous look on his face.

“Really just friends.”

“Yes. Just kidding.”

He said, leaning forward.

“What brought you here? Even getting an introduction from Jiyoon.”

“Ah… I want to give the artifact a fairly high-level magic.”

“Then you’ve come to the right place. That’s my specialty.”

He said with a grin.

“What magic do you want to grant? Say it. ‘Cause I’ll give you anything No matter how you look at it, I am winning the top in Korea in this field.”

“Can I really tell you?”

“Sure.”

“I want to enchant the artifact with the ‘Angel’s Protection’ and ‘Library of Knowledge’ spell.”

“…What?”

‘Angel’s Protection’ is a necessary 5th circle magic for me, and ‘Library of Knowledge’ is a necessary magic for Jeong Hanna.

In an instant.

Baekrin’s expression hardened.

“Is it impossible?”

“…You know how many circle magic it is, so you say that?”

“Yes. Isn’t it the 5th circle?”

“….”

He looked at me without speaking.

***

“I’m really sorry, but that would be impossible for me too.”

“Yes?”

“As you well know, that technology was only possible in the old days when magic was booming, but it is currently impossible.”

“But weren’t you studying that?”

“…That’s true.”

Baekrin himself was confident at first.

About giving circle 5 magic to an artifact.

However, the more he studied, the more his confidence began to wane.

The more he studied, the more he felt like he was blocked by a big wall.

His mind was leaning towards the impossibility, but he struggled to deny it.

“What if I knew the schematic that was lost in ancient times?”

“hahahaha. He’s a fun friend.”

Baekrin smiled.

The high circle enchantment scheme was completely lost through several great wars.

You know that fact better than anyone else.

‘Even when I was in Samhwa Group, I couldn’t find it.’

Before leaving Samhwa Group, when he was a member of Samhwa Group, he used all sources of information inside Samhwa Group to find him.

However, he couldn’t find anything.

Baekrin looked at Nam Doyoon.

‘He couldn’t find it with Samhwa Group’s intelligence, this kid knows that?’

That can’t be.

“My friend. I know you’re young and ambitious, but lying is bad. Know?”

“I don’t think it will be too late if you listen to me and judge whether I am lying or not.”

“…”

Baekrin looked at Nam Doyoon without saying anything.

There was not an inch of shaking in his eyes.

“Okay. Then what should I do?”

“You just need to explain to me what you got stuck while researching the 5th circle enchantment.”

“…Can you understand?”

“Yes.”

Baekrin tilted his head.

The assistant next to him now majored in ‘enchantment’ at university, and went on to graduate school in that field.

However, even he did not understand the research he was doing at all.

“Okay. I’ll explain then, so wait a minute. This is the part where I got stuck while doing this research. In the process of converting the magic formula, the enchantment is released? In order to solve that, I came up with this formula like this.”

With that said, Bai Lin began to draw a diagram of the magic structure.

The assistant looked at it and shook his head.

He himself could not understand the structure of the magic.

It was close to an alien language.

“Uh. I finished drawing, can you see this?”

Baekrin looked at Nam Doyoon and said.

“Can you explain to me what I have done so far?”

“…”

Nam Doyoon stared at the magic structure diagram without answering.

Baekrin shook his head as he looked at Namdo Yoon.

‘As expected, I didn’t understand.’

Well, that’s natural.

How do you understand this?

A student who is still only a freshman at the academy asked for an explanation, and what he explained was wrong.

“My friend. It’s not wrong that you don’t understand. It’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

While saying that, Baekrin patted Nam Doyoon.

“No. Understand.”

“…”

At those words, Baekrin’s expression frowned unbeknownst to herself.

It’s only once or twice that I see it as a bravado for a child of that age.

“My friend. My patience isn’t that good, so if you knew it was impossible, would you please leave?”

“So to sum up Baekrin-nim’s words, this magic structure diagram uses Maxwell’s equations and Hertz’s discovery to create planar electromagnetic waves and block the conversion of magic.”

“…”

It fell under the glass cup Baekrin was holding.

Clang-

“Are you okay?”

His assistant came and said.

However, he didn’t even move.

I was just looking at Nam Doyoon.

“You… Do you really understand?”

Baekrin said with a dumbfounded expression.
