The Birth of the 9th Circle Wizard

Chapter 16 student wizard (4)

I've seen something like this in a book. There were world-class detectives A, B, and C, and among them, Detective A tried to catch the villain.

Then, the villain asked Detective B to reveal A's identity in order to deal with A.

However, Detectives A, B, and C were actually the same person, and the villain is caught by the detective's tail after making a request.

‘The SW company has grown too big. It's unlikely, but it's possible that your uncle might have a different opinion, or that someone might lose your control of the company.'

My uncle is a researcher, not a professional manager.

Although he had a competent executive by his side through Headhunter, he was often seen as in danger.

‘I’m sorry to steal other people’s work, but this time I will return to the original owner.’

The vacation will start soon, so I have a person I need to meet in person in the United States.

Ken, who is working as a senior researcher in the magic research team at the global chemical company DOW's headquarters in Midland, Michigan, sighed.

He noticed the dangers of the Mana cold, which started in China, and reported it to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), but no one understood the seriousness of it.

there was.

“Hey, the CDC hasn’t contacted me yet.”

Mana cold, which originated in China, has now infected more than 10 people.

“Because the fatality rate is so high, it’s easy to say that it won’t make it to the United States.”

The Ebola virus, which started in Congo in 1976, did not spread far because of its short incubation period and close to 90% fatality rate.

The host died so quickly that there was no time for the virus to move.

The CDC has compared the Mana cold to the Ebola virus and said it is not a disease to be concerned about.

“This virus that only responds to mana is really special. Many wizards may die.”

Ken spent a lot of time alone in the lab, so he enjoyed talking to himself.

If he didn't say anything by himself, it was because the laboratory was too hostile.

"Yes. Many wizards will die.”

Obviously no one is in the lab.

I checked and started talking to myself, but I got an answer.

Ken was confused and found the owner of the voice.

A dwarf Asian boy stood by the window and looked at him.

“Who are you? I don't think you're a lab employee, how did you get in here?"

“That's not important. What matters is why I am here.”

"what?"

“The US government is already aware of the dangers of mana cold.

all."

“What… .”

“For political reasons. Just as the United States and the Soviet Union spent enormous amounts of money in the war on space technology in the past, the United States is now at war with China for magic technology.”

Ken was astonished to hear Soon-won's words.

“It’s absurd to delay making a cure for just that reason.”

“It makes sense. A cure is already being studied in secret. Sooner or later, Ken, someone will come to visit you.”

"me?"

Secret kite located in Nevada, USA

The old facility, Area 51, must be researching a cure for a cold for a while now.

However, the research direction for the treatment method is wrong, so Ken, who later joined, completes the treatment two years later.

“Then it is too late. The mana cold remedy is already made.”“What… .”

Soon-won handed him a small briefcase.

There were sample pills and thick paperwork.

“Are you kidding me?”

“I'm not kidding. Mana cold is a disease that started when the flow of mana that started in the heart penetrates to the brain. This is because the modified tau protein attracted the virus. You should already know this, Dr. Ken.”

At first, he thought it was a boy who broke in, but in a conversation that went beyond common sense, he looked at Soon-won again.

“Yeah, yes. This is the cause of the mana cold. However, there was no way to send antibodies to the brain because of the BBB cerebrovascular membrane, so I was in the planning stage of how to do it. .”

“It’s me who uses magic as the driving force.

I solved it with No Magic technology.”

At Soon-won's words, Ken took out the paperwork and began to read it.

In a well-organized article like a thesis, the cause of the disease, the method of transmission, the danger of the virus, and the treatment method were summarized at a glance.

"Huh, I've been fooling around so far. But where are you from? Japan? China?"

Soon-won smiled, but he didn't answer right away.

After staring out the window for a while, he turned his head when Ken approached him with a baby.

looked at

“Doctor Ken. Would you like to work with me?”

Time passed quickly.

In 2003, Soon-won was a sophomore in high school, and in Korea, the People's Government ended and a participatory government began, and the United States started the Iraq war under the pretext of suppressing weapons of mass destruction.

[This is breaking news. Mana cold sweeps the world, death toll rises with high lethality

In the midst of an increasing number of people, JS Company in the United States started to release the treatment.]

The waves were great.

This is because wizards across the country were trembling in fear as the death of the first mana cold appeared in Korea.

JS Company released a huge amount of treatment to Korea, saying that it would take care of Korea, a friendly country, first by demonstrating a protocol called a global epidemic response strategy.

The quantity was so great that people from neighboring countries came to buy it.

‘It would have been better if the treatment had been released a little earlier.’

If the cure appeared as soon as the virus spreads, it would be difficult to avoid suspicion.

Soon-won and Ken watched when the drug would be released on the market, and immediately started selling it when an infection occurred in Korea.

“Hey, that’s great. President, I never imagined that the treatment would be sold through the United States.”

It was natural for Kim Jong-wang to find out.

Up to formulation research just before clinical trials

This is because it was researched and developed by SW Company and was conducted by JS Company in the United States from the clinical trial stage.

Thanks to that, the burden on the SW company was greatly reduced.

“There is no need to worry because all R&D expenses invested by SW Company are recoverable.”

Because clinical trials in the US take so long, the software company's investment cost was enormous as it was secretly pre-made in Korea for fear of delay in manufacturing.

But Kim Jong-wang didn't seem to care much.

“As the president said, we have room for slush funds due to fraudulent accounting through double ledgers. There is no rush.”

The National Tax Service would be thrilled to hear it, but funds that could be freely used were absolutely necessary.

“Are there any other special features?”

“I’m sorry, sir, did you create a religion?”

"Yes? What does that mean?”

“This time, a new religion that has stolen the company’s name has appeared, and I am asking if it was established by the president.”

Soon-won, who had his eyes fixed on the textbook, turned his head to look at the communication crystal ball.

“What does this have to do with the emergence of new religions?”

At Soon-won's question, from beyond Sujeong-gu, King Kim put on an embarrassed expression.

“SW Shinkyo has appeared and is expanding its power by treating terminally ill patients. Well, the treatment is not bad, but the problem is that he uses our company name and the teacher says his name is Jung Ha-neul.”

“Are you impersonating me?”

“Yes, and since the missionary work is so aggressive, citizens who have suffered inconvenience are calling the company to protest.”

It was more important than I thought.

Soon-won, who released the sharpener he was holding to study, changed his seat and sat down.

“How about treatment? Are you using a treatment made by our company?”

"no. What's strange is that they are treating incurable diseases one after another for which there was no cure, so I wondered if this was really the boss... .”

“Not me. I will be leaving soon, so please bring the relevant documents to my office.”

“Oh, yes!”

He cut off communication.

Soon-won was troubled.

He had never before come back.

At that time, the SW Company did not exist, so there was no religion called SW Protestantism.

This also happened due to the butterfly effect.

‘Cure an incurable disease? I'm from 30 years in the future, so there are dozens of large corporations

It was made based on the results of years of research, but… .'

Magic is not omnipotent.

It smelled rancid.

I wondered if the devil was entangled.

SW Protestantism.

Teacher Jung Ha-neul.

In fact, his name is Byung-Hoon Yoon, and he was a white man until the age of 30.

To be precise, he graduated from high school and entered my vocational college for two years, finished the first year, went to the army for two years, returned to school, and attended for one more year before graduating.

He did not have basic computer qualifications with TOEIC scores, so he could not find a decent job he wanted, and eventually started taking the civil service exam.

However, from the age of 25 to 30, he prepared for the 9th grade civil service for 5 years, and eventually did not pass the final exam set by his parents. In despair, he went to the Han River Bridge.

"Damn it! My friends in college are already married and have a daughter!”

mad at the world

If you were born in the Three Kingdoms Period, the Goryeo Period, or the Joseon Dynasty, you would have lived as a farmer without any worries, married a woman chosen by adults, and had children, but the reality is a society of infinite competition.

“I should have been born 30 years later, and I should have been born in a world where robots work for me and I get basic income!”

I've never even had a girlfriend.

She just regretted dying.

“When you die, even if you die, let’s take off the bachelor’s ticket and die.”

In fact, he didn't even have the courage to die.

But that didn't mean he didn't want to go back to the 1.5-pyeong Noryangjin Gosiwon.

He said he saved 30,000 won and went into a room without a window, and it was hard to breathe.

“Hey, let’s walk to Nodeul Island and enter.”

Sometimes when I was frustrated, I used to go to the breeding shrine or walk along the Han River promenade to Yeouido, but the best trail was Nodeulseom Island, where there were no people.

Barbed wire fenced so no access

But there was a hole that someone had drilled.“I’ll buy you some soju and some snacks.”

Yoon Byeong-hoon, who had already forgotten the thought of committing suicide, complained that alcohol and snacks were a disappointment, and as he circled Nodeul Island, he saw a strange person under the Hangang Bridge.

‘Wow, Joonna is really handsome.’

He had a slender body like a model and long hair, so I thought he was a woman, but upon closer inspection, he was a handsome man.

He's wearing a hat, so he was mistaken at first because he couldn't see his face.

‘Even if they stand still, women will line up.’

He continued to grin with envy.

Feeling that gaze, the man also looked at Yoon Byung-hoon.

'uh? Coming?’

He quickly ran away, fearing that he might argue why he was still staring at him.

However, the man followed Yoon Byung-hoon.

‘Hey, are you going to hit me for seeing it?’

He did not know that he had just started walking to leave Nodeul Island.

He stuck to the corner and waited for him to pass.

"excuse me… .”

Contrary to his hopes, a handsome man approached Yoon Byung-hoon.

He was such a handsome man that even making eye contact was a burden.

“Do you believe in God?”

"Yes?"

“God exists. It existed before the creation of the universe, before the creation of the earth. Such a god is now on Earth.”

Mo suddenly approached and said a new command

Byung-Hoon Yoon realized that this man was a religious person who wanted to evangelize.

“I don’t believe in that kind of religion.”

"Please wait a moment. Just a moment.”

I don't know if a pretty woman religious person caught me, but the opponent was a man.

He didn't want to waste any more time.

“Would you believe that God was sleeping in your body right now?”

A desperate cry was heard from behind.

It was completely different from the usual way of propagating false propaganda, so Yoon Byung-hoon had no choice but to stop.

“Hey, is there a god in my body? So what do I get?”

“You will get everything you want to get.”

“Do I need money?”

“Here it is.”

The pocket didn't look that big, but a bundle of 100 10,000 won bills came out.

He also handed over a ring with a yellow jewel that looked expensive.

“A counterfeit bill? Are you kidding me?”

"no. I promise you that the money is real, on the honor of that marquis Attiner.”

I took out a piece of 10,000 won and looked at the sky.

An anti-counterfeiting semi-transparent picture appeared that could not be seen with counterfeit bills that had been scantly scanned and printed.

“If this is real, why are you giving me this money?”

“Because he is the person I want to serve.”

Atiner smiled.
