Chapter 411 – Chapter 411. Secret Sorcery (4)

“Yeah. He said something was strange. I don’t know, but it doesn’t make sense that only 3 people go to Sol. That’s right.”
“Yes, yep. It’s my own opinion. I’m thinking of taking over the wizard society quickly…”
“Hmm…”

Somehow, something was strange.
It is true that one person came to me, but it is an act of ignoring Imsol that only three people went to Imsol.
Even if my information is less clear, Im Sol’s information will be sufficient.

Cook- Cook-

I crossed my arms and kicked Zeros’ body with my foot.
Zeros had been scorched by my magic several times and his whole body was in a state of being scorched.
He lay there, powerless to recover.

“Right. What’s the relationship between Pandemic and Aiden?”
“That, that’s…”
“You don’t answer quickly? Do you want to fight more?”
“It’s a partnership! I was thinking of putting the society in Pandemic’s hands after I made it president!”

I looked at Zeroth and nodded his head.
He didn’t seem to have the will to fight anymore, so I asked him a few questions to get some information, and it was very comfortable for him to answer easily.
After all, listen to what people say.
Since the report to the president of the society has already been completed, someone from the society will arrive soon.
Pandemic terrorism is so common that it can be passed on to happenings, but there was something suspicious about it.

‘Is the brainwashing weakened?’

In fact, it was strange that the executive of Pandemic acted arbitrarily.
Acting like that even though he must have been brainwashed means that something special happened to the maestro.
Maestro’s mana isn’t infinite, so if you used a lot of mana elsewhere, this could happen.

‘Aren’t these guys starting something strange again?’

I looked at Zeroth and opened his mouth.

“Isn’t there any good information? Pandemic information.”
“Mo, I don’t know. That’s all I know…”
“Sup. If you keep doing that, I won’t hand it over to the society. I’ll take it with you.”
“Gee, I’ll think about it right now!”

While Zeroth rolled his head, I turned my head to look at Imsol.
Im Sol frowned and was drinking a Claire Rose latte.
Just by looking at her expression, she seems to dislike it, but the amount of drink has already been reduced by more than half.

“Isn’t it okay to eat?”
“… It seems like that. But my pride hurts.”

Imsol put on a dissatisfied expression and she sucked on a Claire Rose latte.

“I’d like a drink too.”
“Yes. Here.”

Jjook-

I also tasted it after a long time.
Feeling your body tremble.
After all, I can’t forget this special taste.
I’m so glad there’s a place in the US that sells it.

“Sol’s older sister. When is the president of the society coming?”
“Well, I heard you’re on a business trip for work today. Maybe only the research team from the society will come?”
“Aha. Then…”
“Ah, ah! That’s right! I remembered!”
“…”

I looked at the suddenly screaming Zeros with cold eyes.
This asshole is talking to Imsol, but why is she interrupting?
I wanted to punch him, but Zeros didn’t notice my expression and started talking excitedly.

“It’s a plan to destroy humanity. I just remembered!”
“…”

But you can’t ignore such a scary word as the end of humanity.
I answered with a sigh.

“What is that.”
“This is Maestro’s plan to destroy humanity.”
“So what is it? Explain in detail.”
“I’m not familiar with the details… Pandemic’s executives only know information about their own work.”

What is this kid really up to?
I stepped on Zeroth’s side a few more times.
Come to think of it, I didn’t ask why you tried to take over the society quickly.

“Right. Why did you try to take over the society quickly?”
“To stop the chase before it’s discovered that it has entropy…”
“Entropy? What else is that?”
“I guess you’re talking about infinite entropy.”
“Infinite entropy?”

I turned my head at Imsol’s words.
Infinite entropy, I’ve never heard of it.
Fortunately, Im Sol knew.

“What is it?”
“The day you were immersed in magic research, the old man told me about it. It is an advanced magic material that was stolen from the academy.”
“It’s not just an advanced magic ingredient. It emits almost infinite energy… It’s like a miracle material.”

Zeros responded to Imsol’s words with a serious expression.
I don’t know, but it seems like a great thing.
But why do you have it

“Where did you steal that miracle ingredient to use? Do you have it?”
“It was planned to be used for Maestro’s Apostle summoning ceremony… But since Maestro didn’t contact me, Aiden is keeping the entropy.”
“To Aiden?”
“Yes. But I’m not sure where exactly I’m keeping it…”

Tadadak-

Then, I heard people’s footsteps.
Looking in the direction of the sound, a group of wizards were running with their eyes wide open.

“Hey there! Mine! Redeem it now!”
“Sah, save me! I’m here!”
“… Uh?”

Zeros, who was lying on the floor, jumped out quickly and knelt in front of the wizards of the society.
He pretended that he couldn’t run, but that was a lie.

“It’s me. It’s me. Zeroth, the executive of Pandemic! I’ll do anything you ask me to, so please…”
“Uh… Wizard Lee Ho-yeon?”
“Yes. Take him. That’s him.”

As if annoying, I waved his hand and handed Zeros over.
I’ve taken all the information, so I’ll have to take it with me.
I turned her body to face Im Sol looking at her smartwatch.

“Sol… Professor Im Sol. Are we going to the sea?”
“He said he’s on his way here in a hurry. I have to go see him.”
“… Ha.”

It seemed so.
These demon bastards are really no help.

I let out a sad sigh and followed Im Sol.

*

The lobby on the first floor of the hotel as always.
Imsol and I checked the news Arthur showed us.

– S-class demons who attacked Wizard Im Sol and Wizard Lee Ho-yeon.
– The society’s new wizards were also exposed to terrorism. A declaration of war on a pandemic?

“At the same time as you were attacked, the society was also attacked. A number of magicians on Aiden’s side were also killed.”
“… Is that so.”
“Cadet Lee Ho-yeon must be weaker than he looks. His expression is not good.”
“… Yes. Well, because the person died.”

I didn’t deny Arthur’s words.
To be honest, I’m not sad that a wizard I didn’t know died.
I just felt bad because I couldn’t go to the sea with Im Sol.
Arthur smiled proudly at me, and then she put on a hard expression again.

“It’s just my opinion… But I think the death of Aiden’s wizard was a self-made play.”
“Mister, is this a self-made play?”
“You can think simply. You guys had four S-class demons, but there wasn’t a single S-class demon on the other side, and the dead wizards were also low-ranking ones. It’s an obvious trick.”

I shook my head watching the conversation between the two.

“You’re crazy enough to try to use your own side for public opinion.”
“Yes, but there is no proof.”

It was strange to anyone, but I couldn’t point it out.
It’s not easy to tackle a person who’s died and then say that a not-so-famous wizard died.

“Come to think of it, mister. That infinite entropy? Tell me about that again.”
“Infinite entropy? Didn’t I ask for your help and you said you didn’t have the time?”
“That was then. It’s different now.”

Imsol asked Arthur about infinite entropy.
He seems to remember what I was curious about earlier.

“It can be easily explained as an infinite mass of energy. Of course, it is not really infinite, but it is called infinite entropy because it can be used for thousands of years.”
“Is it stolen now?”
“Yes. We are still searching right now.
“I found it.”
“… What?”

Arthur opened her eyes wide as she saw me interrupting the conversation.
It was like that last time, and it’s like this again.
I smiled and continued.

“I heard that Aiden has it. This is the information I heard directly from Zeroth, who was caught today.”
“…Really? But you haven’t even started interrogation yet. The demons of the pandemic have a reputation for enduring torture well. And it’s hard to prove a relationship with Aiden unless there’s solid testimony.”
“If you contact me, I’ll know. I’ve trained them well.”

To-to-

After hearing my confident words, Arthur connected the phone right in front of our eyes.

“Nix. How are the executives captured this time?”
– Still. The guy I’m in charge of is a demon named Zeros… He’s also not saying anything.”
“If you don’t tell me right away, tell him that Lee Ho-yeon is coming.”

I said boldly.

“Keuheum. Nix. If you don’t testify, tell them that Wizard Lee Ho-yeon is coming.”

Arthur looked at me with an unreliable face, but he told me what he said.

– Lee Ho-yeon, the magician… ? Let me tell you first. Hey. If you don’t tell me right away, Wizard Lee Ho-yeon will come….
– Whoa! I’ll tell you everything, please!

As soon as the man named Nyx mentioned my name, a terrible scream rang out from my smart watch.
Arthur looked at me with surprised eyes and raised her thumb.

“You look gentle, but your fighting looks quite masculine. I saw it again.”
“Thank you.”

This is also possible because the brainwashing is weak.
Of course, if you say the brainwashing word, the brainwashing will be completely solved, but there are many times when it is better to leave it alone because you do not know what the devil was originally thinking.
There are so many crazy people in Mine.

– Ha, president! Zeroth began to confess. He has admitted to her relationship with Aiden!
“Okay. For now, don’t inform the superiors and wait. I’ll call you back.”

Arthur calmed her men down and hung up on her.
And she immediately rose from her seat.

“The proof has come. Sol-i and you will definitely be rewarded after the work is done.”
“Mister, are you going right now?”
“Okay. Now that we have evidence, it’s time to turn it over. Waiting for permission to investigate could be too late, so I’m thinking of taking only my henchmen and attacking.”

I thought as I looked at Arthur who was burning with enthusiasm.
Whether I catch Aiden or not has nothing to do with me.
But at that time, infinite entropy passed through my head.

‘You said that Aiden had it.’

If I could have one, wouldn’t it help Rebecca and the magic she creates?
Because of the size of the magic, it was often said that it lacked mana.

Big hum.
I said while managing my expression.

“The president of the society. If you need someone, I and Professor Sol Im will help.”
“… Up to me?”

Imsol tilted his head at the sudden call of his name.

*

“Damn. Damn…!”

Aiden’s Mansion.
When he heard that Im Sol and Lee Ho-yeon had survived the raid, he moved quickly.

“I didn’t believe those crazy demons.”

Click-

Empty space under work desk.
He checked the secret warehouse protected by several layers of magic circles.

Infinite entropy.
As the Mine of the Pandemic requested, I managed to get it out of the Society somehow….

“Should I hide it somewhere right now?”

I don’t know what they plan to use these things for, but Aiden had no use for infinite entropy.

“… No. Calm down.”

Aiden took a deep breath and resealed infinite entropy.
He couldn’t give up the pandemic just yet.

Even if this raid failed, their power was real.

Pandemic Mine is famous for not yielding to torture. She’s dead when she dies, most likely not leaking information of her own.
Besides, even if her name came up, the connections in her investigation team would give her information in advance.

“I have to wait for a few days.”

Borrowing the power of the pandemic, he was even nominated for the next president of the society.
As long as she becomes the president, she can incorporate her own secret magic society into the society in exchange for giving some power to the demons.
From then on, she can legalize magical experiments using humans.
It is her own dream come true.

“I can’t give up now…”

I’ve accomplished too much to give up.
Aiden couldn’t give up his greed until the end,

Kwaaaaang-!

It was his last chance.
