Became the Head of the Magic Tower of Another World

46 – Pressing This Button (2)

A building erected by an unidentified person known as Topju.

Even after hundreds of years, the meaning of the 80th floor in the Matap Tower, whose end is still unclear, is quite unique.

A wizard who steps into the upper floors reaches a level where they can imbue their own magic into the bloodline and pass it on to a new tribe.

Pure-blooded magicians born in the ‘Cradle’ do not need to go through the trials their ancestors endured.

Not having the obligation of climbing for short years or even decades means there are two paths open.

Looking down on others from the summit of a mountain higher than the clouds.

Or sprouting wings instead of legs and flying towards the top of a tower that no one has yet reached.

Vina’s overwhelming talent left no room for doubt in choosing the latter.

An extraordinary mind that devoured all the books of the Dojo even before becoming an adult.

And a pure and powerful magical power that even the pure-blooded magicians of the Divine School felt jealous of.

From the moment of her birth, she was expected to reach the highest level of the magic tower and become a new Tower Lord, pouring forth proposals of marriage.

When Niflheim’s patriarch took on the new position of the Seven Sages, her status soared even higher.

At this moment, the most noble Gem of the Elemental School is here.

She was sitting in a dignified manner with her head bowed deeply on the cold ice floor.

“I heard from Christina. It seems like you’ve been causing quite a stir lately.”

“…….”

The 87th floor, the extreme polar region.

This place, where the entire floor was covered in snow and ice, was Niflheim’s stronghold and her hometown.

In a magnificent hall that could easily be called the main hall of a small country, she was confronting the head of the household, Milone.

Though they were generations apart in their lineage, the appearance of the two was not significantly different, to the extent that they could be called mother and daughter.

Because Milone Freya had sealed herself in the ice decades ago and entered a ‘hibernation’.

“The reason I sent Vina down to the lower floors was because I thought it would help broaden her perspective of the world. But as time goes on, reports keep coming in that she’s breaking the household budget, and yesterday there were even injuries…”

“…….”

“Where do you get the nerve to act like this in front of adults? Use your fists if you have the strength,” the voice of Chilhyeonja, who was asleep in the ice, gained strength as usual.

Although the actions taken on the first floor until now were forgivable, the accusation of making the priest bomb (ice water) was hard to forgive.

Even a few days ago, there were injured people in the security team, and they couldn’t just warn her and end it in Niflheim.

Vina felt unjust.

The problem was not that the world did not recognize meteor magic as ice magic, it was not her fault.

“If you had just caused accidents, it would have been fine, but to use magic on a stranger like a troublemaker! You even get startled when a man comes in while you’re using magic….”

“There’s no such relationship with the headmaster….”

“You’re interrupting again. You’ve learned nothing but bad things from that man. And what are you looking at while getting scolded? Is that a location note or something?”

As the nagging continued like a talkative grandmother, Vina’s mouth started to pout more and more.

But she couldn’t resist here.

If Milone were to order her not to see Clark anymore or to retrieve the magic she gave him, the Glesian magicians would immediately go down to the lower floor.

While enduring the endless hours of fatigue, Milone’s decision came at last.

“You will be on probation for a month. And as soon as you return to the lower floor, take charge of the ‘Extreme Vegetable’ attire.”

“Are you talking about the demon specialized organization?”

“Since the whereabouts of the owner of the Udra’s cow are mysterious, someone has to lead the organization. Among those who attended the investigative committee, Vina is the most suitable.”

“….”

Reluctantly, she nodded her head.

Milone’s sincerity after the incident with the gate of the underworld was strange.

According to what the servants staying in the polar region secretly talked about, it seemed that she was half-threatened by someone who came in the middle of the night.

There was doubt as to whether there was someone in the tower who could threaten her, the Seven Sages.

Upon closer inspection, the gold on the surface of the ice seemed to trace the path of a faint current.

In any case, Bina, relieved that there was no mention of Clark’s story, headed straight to her room and threw herself onto the bed.

But when she logged into the gallery as usual with her location note, a window appeared before her.

[Notice regarding the revision of terms and conditions]

We plan to introduce a new system along with a major renovation of the gallery.

To use this system, we need the agreement of our users, so please check it once.

Agreement to the terms of service (mandatory)

Agreement to the collection and use of personal information (mandatory)

Agreement to the use of location information (mandatory)

.

.

.

Agreement to the transfer of unique mana (optional)

Agreement to the use of summoning and other transfers (optional)

Agreement to the delegation of rights regarding blessings and unfair termination (optional)

If you do not agree, there will be no problem accessing the gallery, but your access to future features may be limited.

Please read and check everything carefully.

“?”

It seemed that Judaki was trying to add a new feature to the gallery.

As soon as I clicked on one of the items with a checkbox, an enormous amount of text poured out endlessly.

There were so many of these items in a row that I didn’t even consider reading them and immediately pressed agree.

Other users had similar thoughts.

“Read all of this?”

No way, just click ‘Agree All’

– LOL

– Cut in 1 second~

– It’s not easy to read all of it

– Why do I have to put my brain into the gallery? LOL

“This optional item seems a bit intense, doesn’t it?”

Especially the ‘Blessing and Unfair Waiver’ ＜- I mean this.

Even if you’re cursed or something, it seems like you can only get it removed by the School of Sacred Studies or a sect of the Blessing School.

I’m not complaining because I’m from the School of Sacred Studies or anything.

– Next, School of Sacred Studies~

— Yeah, I knew you would do that, so I made friends with the Haeju School.

ㄴ The Haeju School doesn’t have any friends.

— They say if you don’t agree, you can’t use the new function. What can you do?

ㄴ Yeah, even if your head breaks, you have to do it anyway, lol.

[I agreed to the terms, but it feels f*cked up]

It seemed like some kind of contract.

But as soon as I mindlessly clicked “Agree All,” the spirits suddenly went crazy and ran away.

I have to go to the 20th floor tomorrow to demonstrate magic. What should I do about this?

This is the first time something like this has happened. Will they come back in about a day?

— Yeah, the spirits abandoned you.

— Cutthroat competition!

— You chickened out to the Tower Lord, lololol.

— I’m a spirit user too, but I think the spirit realm itself is still intact, so they’ll come back.

ㄴ It’s like releasing sharks into a tank where goldfish are living.

ㄴ You were raising them! You were raising them!!!

Amidst various reactions, Bina also felt that something was off.

It was definitely a magical contract, but the coercive power itself wasn’t that strong.

The main content is that when using the gallery, you pay a portion of your mana through a location note.

However, it was not something that happened all the time, but only when using the “new feature” that Judak mentioned.

It was not burdensome at all because it was Vina, who had a purity of magical power that could not be compared to others.

However, separate from that, the “interference method” that I felt on the contractor’s body when concluding the contract felt somewhat familiar.

It was a persistent and sticky sensation, but it brought about an addictive pleasure.

“Sniff, sniff.”

I tried to investigate a little more, but it was impossible to agree to the contract twice even with a sub-account.

I covered my nose and smelled, but all I could smell from the location note was the scent of ink.

I shook off the memory of leaning on Clark’s shoulder for no reason and sobbing, and pulled the blanket off with a snap.

Anyway, it seemed like I wouldn’t be bored during my recovery.

“Wow, it’s complete…! I can finally sleep well…”

“Really? Let me see.”

This works.

I received the location note handed to me by the transformed Isajel and wrote a notice.

As users began to agree to the terms and conditions, a system message popped up in no time.

It seemed to be working well, just as I had ordered.

[System: The ‘that button’ function has been activated.]

“Basically, it’s a form of cursing the target, and the source of it is the mana and points of the people who pressed the ‘button.’ It was really, really difficult to make it fluctuate according to the value set by the individual.”

“A curse? Did you know how to do that?”

“No? The external source you brought in is the contract method of the summoning school embedded in the ‘sword’ you have. Other than that, it’s mostly based on Clark’s magic. He was really talented.”

That’s hard to believe.

Maybe I’ve been working overtime too much and my head is messed up.

Anyway, now that I’ve succeeded in making it, I have to test it.

I checked that most of the users connected have agreed to the terms and wrote the announcement once again.

[A new function using points will be added to the gallery]

You can interact with users in various ways by using (button) when writing a post!

Both the creation of (button) and pressing (button) consume points, and the numerical value varies depending on the effect!

Enjoy your time in the gallery!

Then, poof!

— f*ck, he used an exclamation mark in the announcement

ㄴ Why? Can’t he do that?

ㄴ That bastard only enjoys it when he’s bullying

ㄴ I need to take a break from the gallery for a while, bye

—–

I immediately deleted the comment written by the quick-witted guy.

It was to attract at least one more person in the upcoming storm.

As I got up, packing my belongings, I raised my head and saw Izajel, who had been resting her head on the desk.

Being alone in the small room, she had gradually started to develop an affection for the gallery.

“Um… but is this okay?”

“It has its own originality and magical completeness, so I think it will pass. I’m going to go and check now.”

“N-no, not that! What if the gallery gets damaged….”

Izajel pointed to a post.

The Gonic, who had already gathered a lot of points, were celebrating a festival.

[Press this button and you will receive braised codfish as a side dish in the innocent cafeteria for the number of days you press it]

Instead, one Perichung will disappear from the gallery.

(Button) – 3000P

What will you do?

– Bring the sewing machine

– Press it right away

– Yeah, I’ll press it even if it doesn’t disappear~

– I pressed the button even though I’m innocent

—–

“It’s okay.”

“Really?”

“Maybe?”

“……”

Seeing Isajel’s expression as he belatedly realized what he had created, I quickly entered the magical elevator.

If I couldn’t pass through the corridor of spirits all at once, it seemed that there would be more chaos in the tower than I had anticipated.
