Purple Magic Tower Zhou Yuna panicked and spun around in the same spot like her chick. Her eyes she she were also spinning. Looking at that, I also felt slightly dizzy.
She said, “Uh, where, where did I get caught ⋯⋯.”
“I wonder if I’ll get caught or not.”
2 Prince Irid let out her sigh as her land her fell away.
“I know there was no malicious intent. I guess there wasn’t… Right?”
“Yes, there was none. Our Yuna was just a child who was prone to loneliness. “She came to Yuna.”
“uuu…”
She hugged the demon tower and patted him eagerly. She didn’t really want to cause a stir at Crown Hall, she just wanted to go on a date with me.
No, but really, where did you get caught? I’ve never neglected detecting magical power… Isn’t that a joke?
“Um, prince. I think this is gulp, that is, a trick to get away with it. After all, isn’t there any evidence?”
“No evidence?”
“Yes. First of all, I can’t sense our magic tower lord. If I can’t do it, everyone else won’t be able to either.”
The 2nd Prince looked at me like this is why geniuses are like this. But I simply stated the truth. If I can’t do it, other people can’t do it.
Even if the observation of the magic tower was successful, leaving behind evidence was another story. Unless the magic tower owner obediently took the picture, it was impossible to leave a picture of her.
The 2nd prince stroked her chin, and after a short period of thought, she spoke.
“If that’s true, we can cover it up. In the end, it’s a battle of public opinion. But…”
“But?”
“The moment the Purple Magic Tower lord officially appears, there will be a backlash. Naturally, then her opponents will grab her cause her and wield it.”
Does that mean we shouldn’t be caught in the future?
“It means that you shouldn’t use more power than that. If you use Seunghwa-level power near the Crown Hall, it will be proof that you can’t take it away.”
“….”
This seemed like a pretty big limitation. We were currently chasing after the Purple Magic Tower traitor, and the main axis of this pursuit was undoubtedly the magic tower owner’s military power.
Because there was a reassurance that the magic tower owner would be able to resolve whatever came up, it was okay to rush in without a plan.
But things have changed. The magic tower lord uses great power, and the moment it becomes clear that a purple magic tower lord has secretly entered the Crown Hall, the 2nd prince’s forces are subjected to a political bombardment.
You may need to seriously consider stopping tracking.
Of course, she can act like a bully and say that it has nothing to do with us no matter what criticism the 2nd Prince receives. In the long run, this defeats the purpose of tracking down traitors.
As long as we cooperated with the 2nd Prince, we could receive help from an intelligence organization called the Imperial Defense and Defense Bureau. And above all, wouldn’t Pinvalez be in trouble? If you have the wrong friend and things get messy.. .
“Lord Magic Tower, please take care of yourself. Pingvalez is also injured.”
“Are you going to stop chasing me?”
“If you’re quick, the purple magic tower seems to have been pushed back, but what can you do? Next time… There will definitely be a chance, so don’t be too disappointed.”
I’ve already had enough. The mere fact that the suspicion that there was a traitor in the Purple Magic Tower has turned into certainty is a great harvest. We can prepare now.
“Then let’s deal with it that way.”
2nd Prince Irid quietly stood up and opened the drawer. It was filled with crystal spheres for communication.
He lined up the contact crystal balls on the table and started a mad movie about getting things done.

“Start by spreading a message asking them to stop spreading unfounded slander. Tell the Capital Knights that although we did not bring the magic tower lord, we have no intention of doing anything wrong even if that happens.”
Clarification (not).
“Is this Redburn’s trumpeter Baron Purrett? He’s going around talking about how I’m going to stir up a rebellion by tying him up? Open the cabinet. There was a scandal that had been collected. The social world was asking why that famous intelligence The organization couldn’t find out about his wife’s affair.”
Making the bugler attacking the 2nd prince a laughing stock.
“The top that Redburn was missing… Was it the kumquat top? Tell them to get out of there. It’s a gesture of reconciliation.”
Calming down the Duke of Redburn who had his seizure button pressed.
“There was a liaison that was figured out in advance, right? Please spread disinformation. “We really don’t know about this.”Using spies to leak information.
“Write a letter to your sister. Ask her to release a statement saying that the competition for the throne should be fair and not cross the line. External forces think that your sister and I are on bad terms, so they will think that your sister is warning me indirectly. Then, actually make a move. Make them think that you refrained after hearing the warning.”
Appeal that you didn’t think about / didn’t have a choice but to play Go-Stop.
In addition to that, there were other large and small orders.
He gave instructions like a storm for about 10 minutes and straightened his posture. Ma Tap-ju and I closed our eyes and applauded in admiration. It was because the future of our empire was so bright that we couldn’t look at it directly.
Today, the 2nd Prince Irid was especially cool. He spread his lapels open and spoke while looking down at us.
“Go to the interrogation room.”
“Us?”
“…Don’t you need to extract information from the dark mages that you guys caught?”
—- —-
The interrogation room was composed of a soundproof and dark basement, as expected of an interrogation room. As we went down with the 2nd Prince in front, the Defense Agency agents inside saluted.
“Oh, Your Highness.”
Among them, an agent who seemed to have a high rank spoke. Judging from the worry and concern on his face, it seemed like things weren’t going well.
“Is there a problem?”
“…The magic that’s engraved in his head is too sophisticated, so there’s no way to do anything about it. He’s currently frozen with ‘Instant Freeze’, but I don’t know if we’ll be able to extract information⋯⋯ .”
“That’s why I brought a specialist. Melt him.”
“Yes, Your Highness. ‘Thaw’.”
The body of the dark mage, who had been frozen as if he had been left alone in an ice age, slowly melted while giving off a lukewarm vapor. I rolled up my sleeves and stepped forward confidently.
“…Isn’t the purple Ma Tap-ju going to come out?”
“Oh, that, this kind of thing… Yeah. He’s better at it, Your, Your Highness…”
Let’s try to break through from multiple routes. On one side, let’s show him illusions in his dreams and make him confess with his own mouth, and on the other side, let’s touch the restraints that are attached beyond his mental barrier.
As external stimuli were applied, the suicide trigger that had been planted in the dark mage’s brain started a countdown. 10 seconds. Even though I approached in a roundabout way, the trigger was pressed immediately. He’s skilled.
No wonder the agents couldn’t extract information.
The one who planted this must be a veteran illusion mage. And I’m guessing it’s the same guy who made ‘Big Brother’. I could feel the unique structure that remained like a habit.
9 seconds.
Can I stop the suicide trigger?
No. It was woven together with the intention of killing him no matter what. Some parts aren’t illusion magic, but another system⋯⋯ like a curse that’s planted in the brain cells themselves. To undo it, there would need to be several healing mages here who have thoroughly researched it.
Then, all I have to do is extract all the information before time runs out. I have plenty of time and magic power. I thought I could just think quickly.
“Extract Image.”
Connect to the outside. As the images in the dark mage’s head were projected into the air, the agents prepared to record by preparing video recorders and writing utensils.
Screech, screech.
A noisy video. A blurry image.
“Now, mirror, mirror. What information do you want to hide the most…”
The images flashed by at a rapid pace. A cave, a clothing store, a hidden space in the underground sewer… Like roots that come out when you pull on the stem, the dark mage’s strongholds were revealed one after another.
4 seconds.
“Then, what about the information on the purple Ma Tap?”
Screech, screech, screech-!!
The image shook unsteadily, and a strong repulsion was felt from the brain. It seems like I touched another trigger.
He was quiet when I talked about the dark mage’s stronghold, but when I asked about the purple Ma Tap, he started to convulse. What is he hiding?
3 seconds.
I won’t let him escape. Even if he dies, he’ll have to spit out everything he knows. I deliberately hit his head with information to induce a slowdown. And I pry it open forcibly.
As I pierced him with magic power like an awl, the image that was about to scatter suddenly took shape.
A dark corridor. The dark mage was clinging to the crack in the door, carefully eavesdropping on someone’s conversation. Four people could be seen through the slightly open crack.
A woman with green hair.A woman covering her naked body with long pink hair that sweeps across the floor.
A large man with a hood over his head whose face is unidentifiable.
And someone hiding his face with a mask.
-『Lamb』, Is it really necessary?
-Yes, if we succeed, we will be able to create a puppet that has reached sublimation. I would like to ask for some understanding from ‘Noose’, The person in charge of Crown Hall.
-If you fail, you probably know what will happen to you.
-I know. However, this is already a proven method…
Meanwhile, the masker called “Lamb” Drew a certain pattern with his fingers. The cross contained in the stigma of a living sacrifice. This is Yuna’s…
Well.
The image is crushed.
Pop. The warlock’s head turned into a butterfly and exploded.
I quickly turned my head as I felt the fluctuation of magical energy right next to me. The purple magic tower lord looked up at the spot where the image was with empty eyes, and magical power was blooming from his whole body.
Chaae-ae-!

Nearby agents drew their weapons and blocked the 2nd prince’s path. The tension reached its peak, and there was a cold silence.
Yuna said quietly.
“You know, I guess there were some stains left that couldn’t be removed yet.”
“…I’m listening.”
“Erase it, I have to erase it. I’m sorry. Up, I know it’s dangerous. I know it’s causing trouble… But I can’t give in. I have to erase it…”
That wasn’t a conversation. Yuna was talking to herself.
From Yuna, I saw a young girl holding her pistol. I lifted her hands up and tried to calm her down. She is panicking now. Let’s approach cautiously.
“Don’t go to extremes. Now, take a slow breath.”
“…Huh.”
You hear me. Then.
“Inhale, inhale…”
“Hmm…”
“Breathe in…” ”.”
“Huh…?!”
Looking at Yuna’s empty, empty eyes, ‘How long can I inhale?!’ A feeling of bewilderment passed through my mind. The human-like eyes returned. Now!
“Tackle!”
“Huh?!”
I solemnly attacked the soft explosive, trapped it in my arms, and inspired to the second prince.
“Prince! I have subdued the traitor who was trying to commit the crime of assassinating the prince!!”
“Eh, eeh…?!”
“I will sacrifice the magic tower lord, so at least my life…!!”
“Huh?!!”
The suppression was successful through gags.
What the hell is this guy. I stretched the magic tower’s cheeks wildly. The 2nd prince must have felt that the situation was over, so he relaxed his hold on her shoulders. She later apologized profusely.
The 2nd prince must have sensed the danger in the words ‘creating a puppet of sublimation’, so she gave permission to continue the investigation into the Purple Magic Tower.
Rather than avoiding charges of smuggling nuclear bombs into the capital, it was decided that it was important to prevent nuclear bombs from being made in the capital.
In that way, the period of stay at Crown Hall became longer.

The Duke of Redburn’s mansion, a huge five-story mansion decorated in red.
Maximus, the head of the Redburn duchy, was playing chess with a masked man.
The duke preferred aggressive tactics. On the other hand, the masked person enjoyed using objects as scapegoats and traps. The match continued tightly.
Tuk. Tuk.
Said the duke.
“Is there really a reason for this? “Lamb””
“‘Noose’, What do you mean?”
“Because of this incident, I lost Viscount Dompel. It was an object worse than a phone, but the damage was still a loss. Above all, I lost the hypnosis information network that I had set up in Crown Hall.”
“I made it for you. It wasn’t there before, so don’t regret losing it.”
Tuk. The duke’s pawn is dead.
“I am asking if there is any reason to kill him after going this far. After researching, I found out that he is a genius. He also seems to have a talent for education. However, he is a young chick who has not even been able to write a fable yet.”
“Aha.”Even… a purple rook. There are limits to illusion magic after all. The attempt to solve the lack of physical strength gave birth to the purple rook, but in the end, isn’t she just one? “
“‘Olgahm’, he will reach sublimation at any moment.”
Thud. The masked bishop died. The duke’s forehead wrinkled.
“Sublimation, it’s not a word that can be easily uttered.”
Even on this vast continent, only a handful of people can reach that realm. It was not a word that could be uttered like a pawn or a knight.
However, the masked man was confident.
“I’m sure. He is a genius who can reach sublimation even without pain and despair in his life. We have to kill him now.”
“So… you even dragged the purple rook into this.”
“The purple rook cares for him a lot. It’s very rare for her to be apart from him. To aim for him, we have to physically separate the two.”
That’s why he deliberately leaked the clue. Assuming that he would be caught, he deliberately left the trauma of the purple rook in his brain.
All this was to eliminate the genius magician of the tower.
The conspiracy of the black magicians was spreading in the shadows.
