I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Episode 116

“Owner?”

“huh?”

“Why is this place all made of gold?”

Damian turned his head at Mungchi’s words. As Mungchi said, the spire soared high into the sky, and its outer walls were all covered with gold.

Unless you scratch it, you can’t tell if it’s plated or if it’s made of real gold, but it goes without saying that it draws a lot of attention from the viewer anyway.

“evil!! crazy!!”

Flash!

Then, as a ray of intense sunlight fell over the sky of the Principality of Parma as the sea of clouds of the mountains passed, the streets of the Ivory Tower of Truth began to glow with dazzling golden light.

It was such a light that I wondered if it would blind the viewer.

“Lord master bastard!! I can’t see the bundle of eyes!!”

“Don’t try to cover your eyes, quickly cover your eyes!”

Food Duck!

Damian hurriedly shouted to Mungchi, while covering his eyes while watching the magic tower grinding his eye gang (= eye terror).

Truly, it was invincible.

Also called the < Magic Tower of Alchemy >, it is a treasure trove of gold that looks as if all the gold and silver treasures in the world are piled up.

If this place hadn’t been ruled by Hildebrinho de Garcia, it boasted such a splendid appearance that many passing dragons would have scrambled to claim it as their own.

It was not so different from the memory of the previous life.

According to my memory at the time, this magic tower of alchemy was only a golden tower of money demons who were crazy about alchemy and conversion.

Continentalists and adventurers alike went in, and everything they had in their pockets was robbed.

So, despite this dazzling golden light that filled the streets of the Ivory Tower of Truth, Damian felt a sneaky sense of visceral displeasure instead of an appreciation that something was cool.

It was because he knew very well that this golden tower was built with the blood and sweat of the customers who used the magic tower rather than the product of alchemy alone.

[Reminder: Would you like to enter the < Magic Tower of Alchemy >?]

“Yes.”

What a profit!

Eventually, in front of Damian’s eyes, the gates of the golden tower began to open on both sides.

* * *

“Welcome, adventurer of the other world, seeking the truth. My name is Arwin.”

“Ah yes. hello.”

When Damian entered the magic tower, a young man greeted him. He was an apprentice alchemist working at the Magic Tower of Alchemy—read it and call it a salesman.

As expected of those who work in the Golden Tower, golden-plated glasses and golden-embroidered uniforms made of luxurious materials.

At first glance, Arwyn’s outfit was so extravagant that it could be said to be that of a priest of the six denominations.

From Arwin’s outfit, Damian could easily guess how much money the Mage Tower of Alchemy was making in the past and now.

‘How much is that all?’

Glitter!

Seeing that even Arwin, who was only an apprentice Alchemist, was wearing accessories that must have been made of gold.

The golden power coming out of this mage tower must have far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.

“Why did you find the magic tower you saw?”

“I’d like to see Lunos-nim.”

“If it’s Runos-sama…?”

“He is called the Golden Hand.”

“Ah…”

Scratching!

As Damian said, Arwin scratched his sideburns in embarrassment.

It was an obvious disapproval that even a stranger could understand at a glance.

Although it was a flaw, if it was a flaw, that it was quite intentional, as if to look at one’s face, rather than something that was caused by force majeure.

Damian had to endure the fact that he was about to burst out laughing at the sight of Arwin, whose acting skills rival those of a supporting actor.

In fact, that expression couldn’t just be said to be acting because the person he was looking for was a master-class alchemist who boasted the most noble skills in the magic tower of this alchemy.

“I’m sorry, but Mr. Runos is currently busy with construction, so it’s difficult for regular customers to see you. What about the other Masters…?”

smile!

Arwin laughed.

It was quite a customer service smile.

On the surface, the reason is that the construction is busy, but deep down, ‘there’s no one a beggar like you can meet’!

In addition, < Golden Hand Runos > was one of the key figures who operated the magic tower of the alchemy here, and he was a person you could not even meet unless you were a VIP with tolerable financial power.

It was said that he was a person comparable to Damian who was thoroughly driven by the logic of money.

In the first place, the reason why the Mage Tower of Alchemy was called a place that was dark on the inside, unlike its brilliant exterior, was due to Runos’ achievements.

Of course, it goes without saying that his reputation was not in vain in terms of guaranteeing certain results as much as the goods were paid for.

“Still, if you really need to meet Runos… I can help you make a reservation. Of course, a separate reservation fee will be required. Reservation work over there…”

Poof!

And while Arwin smiles and ignores Demian’s face as he brushes his hair, he ignores it.

The moment he spread one hand toward the semicircular counter on the other side of the lobby on the 1st floor of the Mage Tower.

“Can this be enough?”

“…?”

Arwin suddenly heard a familiar voice resound in front of his ignorant eyes.

I saw a fist-sized money bag dangling between my calloused, clumsy fingers.

It was a bag that wasn’t as big as I thought.

“I’m sorry, sir, but our Mage Tower does not accept solicitation or lobbying at all. The Mage’s Tower of Alchemy is a place where pure passion for learning and in-depth research on alchemy take place…”

Every day!

Damian silently held out the money bag, and Arwin repeated the same words with a gentle smile.

It was because he already had a strong prejudice against Damian.

Even the barbaric attitude of acting recklessly even though he personally explained the procedure and the muscular body that was beyond ignorance just by looking at his rough appearance.

Arwin, who had dealt with many types of people visiting the Mage Tower, knew very well what kind of people Damian was.

These wild boar-like guys, who had only muscles, must have been the kind of idiots who didn’t even think of the least common sense that any human can think of and just thought it would be enough if they insisted.

“Open it.”

“…yes?”

“A pocket.”

“Ah yes.”

As Damian chinned, Arwen looked at the pouch in the palm of his hand.

It just didn’t seem like a lot of money.

Even if there were a lot of them, it didn’t seem to contain even a thousand gold coins, so judging by the palm of her hand as a human scaler, the bag didn’t seem to be of much value!

Arwyn, a professional waitress and 3-year apprentice alchemist, could figure out roughly how much Damian’s purse was worth with her eyes closed.

The amount of gold coins inside was also clearly visible.

It was a basic knowledge (?) that all Alchemists have.

Traditionally, an alchemist must be more knowledgeable about gold than anyone else, which is the philosophy of the Mage Tower of Alchemy.

It was because it was a quote that Runos, who had the highest share price among the Masters of the Mage Tower, himself gave a lecture to the apprentice Alchemists.

‘Have you seen all these beggars? Did you dare to meet Lunos with only a few gold coins like this? After all, the adventurers of the other world are…’

Seruk!

And the moment when Arwin spit out all sorts of swear words inside, while looking at his pockets while passing Damian’s nonchalant eyes over with a forced smile.

“Heeheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?!”

Fire!

Soon, a soft light emanated from Damian’s pocket, and Arwin’s eyes widened as if they were going to pop out at any moment, and he let out a scream.

It was also true that the pocket that Damian had handed over was not filled with gold coins, but with multi-colored jewels of inestimable value.

“One big one.”

“If it’s a single big one…. a million gold?!”

“It’s good that the story is fast. No, are you counting fast?”

Swoop!

As Arwyn shrank, alerting him like a rabbit, Damian lowered his upper body.

Contrary to the overbearing atmosphere, it was a calm face.

Would it be an illusion if the viewer couldn’t tell what he was thinking, and if he felt that his smile with the narrow eyes drawn in a long line resembled Arwin’s?

“Because there is no time. Please guide Lunos. Right Now.”

“…!”

And the moment Damian’s whisper reached his ear, Arwin’s face turned white at once and began to harden.

It was as if he had heard the whispers of the devil.

* * *

“Owner bastard.”

“ok?”

“Can the owner make everything you need here?”

“ok. Maybe the most important?”

Whoa!

Damian nodded while entrusting himself to the floating stone heading to the upper level of the mage tower. The balustrade marble, approximately 1 square meter in size, climbed leisurely in the air with an antique carpet on it.

No matter how vicious the rumors are, the dozens of floating stones that still pass by around him are of such outstanding quality that it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the essence of modern magical engineering.

In addition, considering that there are a total of 100 floating stones operated by the Magic Tower of Alchemy, it was enough to understand why people continued to visit this Magic Tower.

It was high technology, for example.

It was said that even an ordinary person with no knowledge of magic could feel the technical sophistication of the fact that it was designed so that it could move inside the round tower of tens of meters without any collision or delay.

Even more so, if you knew that each floating stone was made by hammering the top-notch magic crystal into the bottom.

So, if you know that it is a far-out piece boasting an astronomical amount for each floating stone.

It could be said that it was enough to make those who visited the Magic Tower build trust and anticipation implicitly.

It was also the reason why Damian lobbied for this tower of gold, spending a large amount of money equivalent to 1 million gold.

– You have arrived at the master class on the 50th floor.

– Passengers, please be careful when getting off.

rattle!

Damian turned his head as a gentle voice echoed from the crystal ball on the corner. Unsurprisingly, the handrails of the floating stone opened on both sides and reached the 50th floor.

Dozens of colonnades supporting the arched ceiling and the Corridor of the Stars lined with gothic wrought-iron wooden gates between them.

Eventually, as Damian stood in front of one of the gates, the lion-headed doorknob glowed white and a circular magic circle floated in front of his eyes.

[Notice: Enter the Master Room, the Golden Hand Runos’ room.]

[Notice: Do you want to activate the magic circle?]

“Yes.”

Dig!

Eventually, Damian’s new model shone pure white and turned into a single point of light.
