Chapter 413 – Chapter 413. Return

The day Lee Ho-yeon arrested Aiden in America.
At Victoria Academy in Korea, Irene and the director were having a conversation.

“Thank you. Team leader 1. I hope to keep a good relationship in the future.”
“Yes. Thank you. Chairman.”

The chairman stood up from his seat with a kind smile.
Iris Guild is the best information guild in the world.
It was also a good thing to have a relationship with the Korean branch.

Meanwhile, Irene bowed her head and left the chairperson’s office.
As she walked down the aisle, she wore a refreshing expression.
This is the end of the conversation about collaboration with the academy.
Now the Korean branch of the Iris Guild will be able to receive help from the academy.
Irene went back to her house checking her smart watch.

– Iris Guild leader’s daughter Irene visited Korea.
– Expecting to establish a good relationship between Victoria Academy and Iris Guild….

“It’s nothing special, but it makes a lot of fuss.”

Still, each such article is proof that he is recognized.
Irene smiled.

There wasn’t much work at the Iris Korean branch, but she still did what she could as the 1st team leader while visiting Korea.
I came to Korea with the feeling of a vacation, but this level of work was no different from a vacation to Irene.
The regrettable thing is that Alice has returned to her home country.
At that time, Irene, who thoughtlessly lowered her eyes, found her article underneath her.

– Sol Im and Hoyeon Lee return to Korea tomorrow. What Research Changed the History of Magic?
– Are you considering awarding the youngest academic president award to Lee Ho-yeon?
– Arthur, president of the wizarding society ‘The future of wizards is Lee Ho-yeon.’ President of the American Hunter Association ‘I would like to thank Lee Ho-yeon and Im Sol.’

“…”

As the leader of Team 1 of the Iris Guild, he received a lot of information from the United States.
In particular, the information of a large group like the Wizard Society had to be thoroughly grasped.
That’s why I knew how great Lee Ho-yeon was doing in America.

“It’s ridiculous to be 20 years old…”

Irene sighed and murmured.
Not only did she publish her research that would turn the whole world upside down, she even caught a demon hiding in the wizarding society, she says.
Of course, the latter information is not known to the general public, but since she herself knows, her father and mother must also know.

‘This is why I can’t even make an excuse that Alice is a waste.’

Alice, the heir to the Iris Guild, and Lee Ho-yeon, her heavenly orphan.
When she showed her ability like that, she couldn’t even make excuses that she didn’t fit in.
Because he is a monster who has been building a career like that since he was 20 years old.
Considering his power, Elise might be lacking.

Irene returned to her quiet home, continuing her worries.
She was alone in her house because Alice had not yet returned from France.

“… Are you coming to the house next door tomorrow?”

Irene quietly opened the window.
While Lee Ho-yeon went to America, she naturally did additional research personally.
And what I found out was the house right next door.
That Hoyeon Lee lives next door.
It must be certain since it was confirmed by Elise.

“…”

It was fine until there.
No, it wasn’t okay, but she said Elise didn’t care, so she must have been helpless.
But why….

“Why do you feel the presence of people in that empty house?”

There was a strong barrier in Lee Ho-yeon’s mansion.
At first, she thought it was a barrier Lee Ho-yeon had set up while the house was empty, but Irene felt it.
The magic of the barrier surrounded by the house was being replenished every day.
That is, someone is in the house.
Irene was on her mind about that.

‘Should I ask Alice?’

In fact, if it were someone else, you would think someone was watching over the house, but he was a beast, not a human.
She may have a hidden woman.
Now that Alice is in France, she will be able to see her when she returns to Korea.

“Anyway, be careful. And tomorrow, when Lee Ho-yeon returns…”

Irene shut her mouth.
She’s already got her heart.
Even though it’s been a week or so, she hasn’t changed her mind that she has to protect Elise.

“I have to protect… Do it. Yes, I have to protect Elise.”

Of course, as time passed, she herself was confused as to whether it was correct to say that she would protect her, but even when she thought about it, no answer came out.
Irene repeated her words that she just had to keep, and she took a break.

Saturday.
Imsol and I left the US and returned to Korea.
And her eyes twinkled as she looked at the enormously littered reporters.

“I have to run away separately. Professor Sol.”
“Let’s do it. I don’t want to do interviews anymore.”
“It’s not because I said strange things in America…”
“I’ll go first. I’ll stop by the lab next time.”
“Yes. See you next time.”

Imsol and I exchanged brief greetings.
Rather than break through those reporters, it would be better for each of us to run away.
It was annoying when I left the US airport, but I couldn’t do that here either.

‘This trip was quite fun.’

What bothered me was that I couldn’t say hello to Arthur, the president of the society, but when I looked at the interview, my name was mentioned a lot.

“Are you sure you don’t intend to hit me with that?”

Or maybe he’s thinking of moving on to something like the awarding of a useless president’s award.
You did well to take care of infinite entropy.
I returned home avoiding the reporters at the airport.

“Hoyeonah…!”
“Yes. I’m here…”

As soon as I entered the front door, I hugged Nam Da-eun, who approached me.
I said I was coming, but I told them not to come out to meet me because there would be a lot of reporters at the airport.
It must have been very sad.

“What about the others?”
“Everyone’s in their rooms and in the living room. Shall I call them?”
“No no no. I’ll take a break and come out. Just tell me you’re here.”
“Ah… I’m sorry. Get some rest.”
“You don’t have to be sorry.”

I carefully patted Nam Da-eun’s head as she put my body down and went into my room.
I wanted to say hello to the girls I hadn’t seen in a while, but it was so hard.

“I’m going to die of hardship…”

To be honest, it was difficult, but the schedule wasn’t difficult.

How to say
When you come home after a long time, you want to lie down in bed.
Resting outside is different from resting at home.

‘What should I do first?’

I lay in bed and pondered in a daze.
First of all, you have to hand over the stolen goods to Scarlett and show Rebecca infinite entropy.

“I have to share the presents I bought at the airport.”

Kiik-

I got out of bed and went outside.
You have so many things to do, when are you taking a break?
As soon as I came out of the living room, I saw Scarlett.
It must have come out at Nam Da-eun’s words.
Scarlett smiled as soon as she saw me.

“Are you here, Mr. Hoyeon?”
“It feels good to hear it after a long time.”
“Is that so? I’m so glad.”
“I just had something to give you. Scarlett. Look at this.”

I took out a red magic ball from my pocket.
Scarlett opened her eyes wide and placed the magic orb I gave her in her hand as if taking care of something precious.

“What is this? Maybe…”
“Sell me that. It’s stolen from America.”
“Ah. Yes. You can sell it.”

Scarlett’s face changed from a nervous expression to an expressionless one.
Why are you like that?

“Yeah. It’s like an artifact. You’re good at that.”
“That’s right. I’m from the information guild and I’m an expert at this. I’ll handle it very well.”

Scarlett took her artifact with her uneasy expression.
I haven’t looked closely, but it’s better to leave such stolen goods to the experts.
It must be of good quality because it was brought by Im Sol.

“That’s right Scarlett. Take care of this too.”
“… Something else.”

I smiled and handed out the luxuriously packaged box.
It is a luxury hair ribbon that I bought expensively at the airport.
I bought one because I remembered Scarlett.

“…”
“I came and picked it up. You use it.”
“… After all, the comments are not good.”

As I raised the corners of her mouth, Scarlett also burst into her laughter and carefully packed her presents.

“I’ll use it well. Hoyeon-nim.”
“You were just trying to get angry? I couldn’t believe I didn’t buy you a present.”
“Because you’re jumping around in strange places.”
“Is it?”

Seeing that Im Sol said that, it seems to be true.
Personally, I thought there was no one as thorough as I was, but I was mistaken.

“Anyway… I’ll take care of the artifact. I know someone, so I’ll be able to take care of it within today.”
“Yes. Please take good care of me.”

Scarlett smiled pleasantly and walked away with her rifle.
You can see the excitement in your steps.
It was good that I bought the expensive one as well.
Seeing that Liliana was quiet, she must be on air, and Daeun Nam went into her room when I said I was taking a break.

‘Is Rebecca studying magic?’

I went to Rebecca’s room.
Infinite entropy should also be seen soon.
Judging from the fact that her mana grows stronger the closer you get to her room, it seems that magic research is right.

Smart-

“Rebecca, I’m here. Open the door, please.”

After knocking and waiting for a while, the door slowly opened and a red-haired beauty appeared.
Wearing comfortable sweats, she smiled at me.

“Is the baby’s father here? I’m sorry I couldn’t come to pick you up today.”
“It’s okay. Rebecca was doing research?”
“I’m always the same. Come in.”

Rebecca’s room was the same as before she went to America.
Seeing the books on prenatal education, I laughed for some reason.
It’s good that everyone is still

“Didn’t you just come back from America? Can’t you rest?”
“There’s no time to rest. I brought something nice to show you, Rebecca.”
“Good things?”

I put the safe I brought on the desk.
I need to release the magic circle as soon as my magic power leaks out.

“What’s this?”
“Now we have to check.”

Support position- Falling position-

I energized the safe.
It was enchanted quite thickly, but it was easy to remove.

Click-

When the safe was opened, a tremendous amount of magic began to flow out.
I calmed down the mana that escaped like smoke and checked what was inside.

Inside the safe, there was an object that looked like a holy grail, and magical energy was leaking out of it.
When I opened it, I thought what to do if it wasn’t infinite entropy, but fortunately it seems to be correct.

Woo woo woo-

I stared at Rebecca, suppressing the magical power of infinite entropy.
Rebecca also had her eyes wide open, probably for the first time seeing an artifact like this.

“I brought it from America. I thought that making magic would be a little easier if I had this.”
“This… Is amazing. The magical power it contains is amazing. Did you receive it as an injury at the Wizards’ Association? The research you announced this time is certainly amazing.”
“That’s not it. It was stolen.”
“Uh?”

Rebecca looked at me with a puzzled look.
She’s a surprisingly kind person, so she’s sensitive to things like this.

“Don’t think it’s strange. I stole it from Mine’s house. It’s not a bad thing.”
“Aha… I’m glad. Bad things are bad for prenatal education.”
“There is no father who lives as kindly as I do.”
“Yeah. Of course. Oh, teach me the theory of the core technique that the baby’s father presented at the conference and the area expansion magic circle. That will also be useful for magic.”
“I know.”

Come to think of it, you didn’t tell Rebecca about the key spell.
She thought about making an announcement with Im Sol, but she didn’t tell anyone, but she was hiding it even from Rebecca.

“Before that, where should I put this artifact?”
“Put it down there. Come to think of it, what is the name of the artifact?”
“It’s called infinite entropy. Have you heard of it?”
“Ah, is this it? It’s a very famous artifact.”
“You know, Rebecca.”

Judging from what Im Sol knew about it, it must be a famous item among wizards.
I’m a wizard too, but since I haven’t been steadily accumulating information, there are times when I don’t have enough basic common sense even if I know magic well.

“It’s famous for its literally infinite magic power. It’s just as I’ve heard. The magic power keeps gushing out. I need to get a mana compressor?”
“That’s right. If you make a fake dungeon with this, the lack of energy will be solved.”
“I guess so. But, as far as I know, I recently saw the news that infinite entropy was stolen from the wizarding society… Isn’t it?”
“…”

I closed my eyes and turned my head.
I won’t state the downside.
Is the right to remain silent

“Baby’s father. Could it be that the baby’s father stole from the conference…”

But I need to stop making such absurd misunderstandings.

“Rebecca. I told you earlier. It was stolen from Mine’s house. I borrowed what Mine stole from the society for a short time. I’ll use it all up and return it to the society.”
“Aha. Then it will be fine. I’ll have to pay for what you found.”

Rebecca then smiled as if relieved and took out the Infinite Entropy from the box.
Actually I don’t know what’s good.
As long as Rebecca is okay, then she’ll be okay.

“Shall we check the magic circle together? I have so many things to do in America that I hardly touched it.”
“Since that’s what it looks like, let’s look at it again from the beginning. There was a place where we couldn’t make it properly because we didn’t have enough magic power.”

Rebecca didn’t seem to care, and started looking at her magic circle, and she, too, let out a sigh of relief and joined Rebecca’s side.
