Concerned about Lee’s slow reply, the chief magician sends him a paper outlining his newfound rank. Lee is greeted warmly and given presents by mages such as Vangrith Tom and Narthrow as he arrives at the Mage’s Tower.

The Player Hides His Past Chapter Recap
In the chapter “The Player Hides His Past,” things start to get crazy. The Mage’s Tower reveals a new feature at the beginning of the story. Our main character, Lee Hoyeol, receives a barrage of messages regarding a YouTube video from his sisters. After several brave deeds, he rose to fame.
Noona No. 3 messages Lee Hoyeol at the start of the chapter about a viral YouTube video. His sisters are ecstatic, and talk of his newfound celebrity is widespread. As it happens, Lee Hoyeol has advanced and is currently a head mage’s joint researcher. The head mage, Maia, reaches out to him, but he doesn’t respond to her signals.
Vangrith Tom and Narthrow are two of the wizards who welcome Lee Hoyeol to the Mage’s Tower. They appear pleased with his successes and give him gifts. However, things begin to shift when Lee Hoyeol begins receiving messages regarding the YouTube video that shows his conflict with the Great Evil. His sisters are overjoyed at the video’s viral success.
As Lee Hoyeol struggles to come to terms with his unexpected celebrity, Maia, the chief magician, writes him a message after making an earlier attempt to get in touch. She gives him a scroll, which most likely has information crucial to his new position. For Lee Hoyeol, the Mage’s Tower seems to be both an exciting and perplexing place.
Amidst all of this, there’s a comic moment in which Lee Hoyeol, still getting used to his new role, gets a constant stream of emails from his sisters praising him for his bravery. The sudden attention has humiliated him, and all he wants is a quiet place to unwind. He opts for a simple room to spare himself additional trouble.
Cut to Lee Hoyeol seeking solitude at the Yusra Archipelago Palace. He receives assurances from the higher wizards there that the attention he is receiving is a genuine and respectful gesture. They tell him not to worry about bribery efforts or rumors. As Lee Hoyeol attempts to understand the intricacies of magical etiquette, the conversation takes a hilarious turn.
Situations back at the Gaon Reconstruction Base drastically changed. The Mythology Guild’s rumors have caused the Gaon Guild’s stock to drop as they learn. It appears that Gaon is under pressure from the Congress-backed Mythology Guild to reveal the Yusra Reconstruction Quest. As the Gaon Guild responds to the misleading information making the rounds in the media, it’s chaos.
Lee Hoyeol experiences an odd feeling in the middle of the mayhem that reminds him of being possessed by an imp. Baek Yiseol, the daughter of the Mythology Corporation’s owner and the Mythology Guild’s guild master, is exposed as the culprit. There are doubts about how she got Congress’s approval, and she possesses mind-control magic.
Lee Hoyeol is still trying to make sense of everything and is still experiencing Baek Yiseol’s unnerving presence as the chapter comes to an end. The suspense keeps the readers wondering what will happen next.
This chapter’s arrival of a powerful character, the turmoil surrounding the stock market, and the unexpected rise to fame cause the plot to drastically change. The perfect balance of stress and humor keeps readers guessing about how Lee Hoyeol will handle these new challenges.
