Taming Master

< 917.2. Colosseum Wizard (1) >

An emerald colorful wooden staff with immense magical power at a glance.

As the Visual Wizard appeared for the first time, all eyes of the audience began to be drawn to him.

It was because he was a figure who had never appeared during the Knight War and was a very flashy visual figure.

“What the hell is that wizard? ”

“I see. Completely new ranker. ”

“Which faction are you in? ”

“Flag Bonnie Lotus. ”

“Lotus had a wizard like that? ”

“No, why is the outfit like that? ”

A golden robe with an emerald wand. And red shoes, and a belt, and a headband.

What would a good Christmas tree look like?) A colorful blend was enough to attract everyone's attention.

“I wonder, is that a tubercle? ”

“But you still have abilities, right? What about the lotus selection? ”

“I wonder. What kind of ranker is he? ”

However, despite the hot attention of the spectators, the mysterious wizard did not react to him much.

I just used my other hand, not holding the cane, to fix the red hair ornament as if it was burning.

The head ornament decorated with the symbol of flames was a design that covered the eyes and nose of the man, so no one could recognize his identity.

“I don't know who. I'm telling you, aesthetics sucks. ”

“Equipment seems to be more than legendary... How does that look with all that equipment? ”

“Why don't I just dye it and fit it in? ”

“So.”

Kailan's fans, who have come to intuit the Colosseum, have been waiting for the battle to begin with half curiosity, half anticipation.

When the battle begins, a system box will appear over the heads of the entrants, and we will know who the man is.

But 10 minutes later, when the battle began,

“ ……? ”

“What, you don't have a username? ”

The fans who checked the system box above the Colosseum rankers' heads became devastated.

Usually, there was only one simple line of messages floating in the system box above the head where the user name, level information, class, etc. should have floated.

- Lotus Guild, Elite Gladiator

While the entire lineup of ten people was public, all the information in the entry was a rule of confidentiality.

“I think it's because I need to strategically manage the order of the battles. ”

“I'm more curious because I didn't tell you this, really. ”

Since guilds don't usually choose Ace rankers, the user's interest is all in the Green Wizard (?).

However, it wasn't that the rankers who came out of the selection didn't lose their skills.

Unless a top tier ace appeared, I was more curious about Newface's first appearance.

“Tsk, but, you know, you'll find out more than you're fighting. ”

“We'll soon be able to find out who the class is, even if it reveals the main magic. ”

But after the battle began, the users became more and more confused.

“What, what? ”

“What the hell is a class? ”

As the Green Wizard began the battle in earnest, his identity gradually plunged into the labyrinth.

* * *

The arrival of the new Green Wizard, exactly four hours before the Colosseum fell into chaos.

There have already been more chaos than that, and they were the Knights of Lotus.

Ian, who appeared dramatically after he didn't even show up for the Knights' War, brought up some incredible stories that no one had ever thought of.

“So, Ian, you're really going to run for office? ”

“Yeah, I know, right? ”

Of course, Ian was going to assign his entry in the tenth order, but he suddenly appeared and started insisting that he would choose.

That's why I began to strongly disagree with the discipline I had originally named for the election.

“Oh, no. Bro, that's ridiculous! ”

“Why not? ”

“If you go first, no one else will be able to go. ”

“Hmm?"

“You have to go out at the end. ”

And the protesters, of course, were not the only ones.

Let's start with Levia, who doesn't normally give much opinion.

“That's right, Ian. In order to eliminate one variable, Ian has to enter the tenth. ”

Cloban, who has been in meetings for a long time.

“Of course, if you enter the tenth time, it won't be your turn...... but just in case. ”

Of course, when they said they would oppose him, Ian could not bend his argument.

“No, these people. What kind of insurance am I? ”

“It's insurance. ”

“If you don't let me go first, you won't go? ”

“ ……! ”

“Yes!”

He cast a strong threat that he wouldn't go if he didn't guarantee his selection.

“Everyone wins without me anyway. I have to get back to my quest. ”

“Ahh... ”

Hers sighs on his forehead, shaking his head.

As a master, Hers had to have a headache.

If another ranker had done it, it would have been a threat, but it was never a threat unless it came from Ian's mouth.

He must have been the one of all Kailan's users who didn't care most about the Knights' War.

“Phew, do I have to do that? ”

Herce felt a wrinkle stretch on his forehead.

In fact, the reason he wanted to eliminate Ian was a little different from the other rankers.

He's either in the running or he's out of the running.

We thought we could win the first battlefield, the Colosseum.

To be precise, no matter how badly he died, more than second place was enough.

So Herce wanted to hide Ian again.

If he enters the tenth member, there is a good chance that the winners of the Colosseum will decide before he goes into battle.

‘If we can hide the power of Jinsung until we reach the Hill of Destiny, our chances of winning will be even higher. ’

Unlike the anxious discipline or Remir, who fears his chance will come.

The guild master, Hers, thought deeper.

But the wrinkling of Hers didn't end here.

Ian, who was about to run for election, suddenly heard a much more shocking statement than that.

“I'll make a fun deal for you. ”

“On what terms? ”

“In this arena, I won't use a summoner. ”

“To?”

“Excuse me?”

“There's no referee's sword. I'll fight with my staff. ”

I doubt that Hers and even the other guild members heard it wrong.

“ ……? ”

“What confidence is that? ”

There was a moment of static in the guild meeting room, and it was perfectly natural.

Even if it was "Ian Gad," it was almost as if he was going to fight with bare hands.

But wait for the static.

Hun smiles and nods, his eyes wide open next to him.

“Fine, with that kind of penalty. I vote yes!”

“What?"

“You don't think our guild will slip in the arena without him? ”

In Hun's words, the conference room became static again.

And it was Lemir sitting across from him who broke the silence and opened his mouth.

“Well, is that so? ”

Then, as Lemir confronts him, Hun is excited to speak.

“And the brother, probably, would've survived with a cane if he said that. ”

“Well, Ian might. ”

Then, as we began to work together, the atmosphere of the meeting room changed quickly.

Except for Guild Master Herss, everyone thought the Colosseum was a pass.

Only Ian eats it all.) I just wanted to avoid the situation.

“Ha, what is this in a game that is almost national versus level……. ”

Herce has had a headache, but he can't seem to turn things around.

Everyone was excited to put Ian on the board, and they were ordering the rest.

Of course, it was Hers who decided to become a guild master, but didn't want to do that.

‘Whew, there's only one way to do this. ’

Herce, who has found a compromise, opens his mouth again to Ian.

“Then do as you say, Ian. ”

“Indeed, Hers. ”

“But there is one condition. ”

“Condition……? ”

“When something dangerous happens, I'll write you a swap card. ”

“Swap card? ”

“Yes, I don't know if you've seen the details today, but I can use three swap cards during the game. ”

“Aha?”

The compromise Hers found was no other.

Once Ian does what he wants, he swings his cane and swaps to the next entry point when the critical hazard comes.

It was a card that could only be used three times during the game, but it was still a better choice than losing Ian's card.

‘It might be a better way to hide Ian's power than I thought. ’

With a few moments to spare, Hers opens his mouth again.

“And once you're swapped in to the waiting room, you're always last in line. ”

“When it's your turn again, of course I'll have to fight my way out, right? ”

“Yes, that's my condition. ”

Ian nods without hesitation, hearing Hers' story.

He wanted to go out in the first place anyway, because it was the only reason he wanted to test the spirit magic without any pressure.

Ian had no honor at all, such as sweeping away rankers with all his might and receiving spotlights.

“All right, Hers. Then let's do it. ”

“Cole!"

“But you have to remember one thing. ”

“What?”

“I only accept the swap when it's ‘really’ dangerous. ”

Herce folds his head in Ian's story.

After all, the last story Ian told was so natural.

Since the swap card was not unlimited, it was natural to play as far as possible on the battlefield before it was dangerous.

“Now that Ian has chosen his order, let's quickly decide the rest. ”

“Yes."

“Good.”

“We can reorder things a little bit under the circumstances, but we'll need to clear it out before we can cause any confusion. ”

But at this point, the guild members had one unknown fact.

"Hmm, how many can I kill with spirit magic?" ’

It was the fact that the strategies that they began to weave would all be meaningless.
