Episode 104. [You have taken ‘Magical Source +20’]
[
A random magical talent is selected]
[Unusual power is detected.]
[You have acquired the talent ‘Magical Firepower Light Series (Genius)’. .]
I thought I had seen it wrong for a moment and looked at it two or three times.
‘genius?’
I couldn’t help but be surprised by the completely unexpected result.
As far as I knew, at least a gifted talent was the greatest, but not a gifted child, but a genius?
“But, of course, the kind of talent that came out….”
It was the first genius-level talent he had acquired, but the talent related to magical firepower was also a C-level talent limited to the light family.
‘Besides, light magic is difficult to learn and the efficiency is not very good.’
I don’t know if I should be happy or sad about this.
Of course, it’s a little too early to be disappointed.
I have an evolutionary trait, so if I only use light magic for a few years, wouldn’t I be able to evolve that talent as well?
‘I didn’t even think of it, but I’ll have to learn light magic first.’
Even if it was a waste of genius-level talent, it was a plate where he had to learn simple light magic.
Looking at the desk where the source of magic and gold bars had disappeared, I saw the last remaining gold bar and crumbs of gold.
“You don’t have to leave.”
Let’s strengthen nickel or something.
* * *
In the middle of the comfortably furnished room was a huge bed.
The person lying on the bed was sleeping with pinkish white hair lightly scattered.
A light breath was exhaled, and at the end of gradually irregular breathing, the woman’s eyes finally opened.
After confirming that Lucia had opened her eyes, the maid asked her.
“Are you okay, young lady?”
Upon hearing the lady-in-waiting’s question, Lucia stood up after looking up at the ceiling without saying anything for a moment.
“Yes, water.”
“Here it is.”
After drinking a little water, Lucia carefully got out of bed.
The lady-in-waiting, watching her with an uneasy expression, was ready to support her at any time.
“good. Are you okay?”
“Are you all well?”
“wait for a sec.”
Lucia felt an unprecedented lightness and rolled on the floor.
I didn’t feel sick.
In the meantime, I suffered from extreme pain during treatment, but today there was no such thing, and I did not feel chronic fatigue or the heaviness of a weight hanging somewhere in my body.
“Catherine, I think I’m all better!”
Seeing Lucia talking around the room with a bright expression on her face, a maid named Catherine clapped her hands in delight. And she immediately reported this to the outside world.
“Lucia!”
Viscount Hollington put down all his busy work and came running in a month.
He got up and hugged Lucia, who was moving around, crying tears of joy.
“Let’s see! Is everything better? Ahhhh that’s it! it’s okay!”
Soon after, the viscountess came in, and Lucia’s room became a sea of tears for a while.
Indeed, Lucia herself looked at such parents with a sad expression.
“You suffered a lot because of me. I will definitely become a proud daughter in the future.”
“no. It is enough for us that you are healthy.”
Viscount Hollington said while wiping away tears and shouted outside the door.
“Albert!”
“Did you call, Master?”
“Today is a happy day. Release the barn for the festival prepared in advance!”
“All right.”
Lucia still couldn’t believe that she had completely recovered from her illness, so she just blankly watched the situation. The whole situation felt awkward for her.
It was a congenital disease, so the current state of my body without the disease felt rather strange, and the sight of my parents shedding tears and being happy felt like a dream.
‘Actually, isn’t this all a dream?’
Next to her, Viscount Hollington, still unable to get out of the emotional lingering feeling, stroked Lucia.
“I really don’t know what to do with Sir Cromwell. Do you have any objects or hobbies that he might like?”
“ah.”
When the story of Adrias came out, Lucia finally came to her senses.
He survived thanks to Adrias Cromwell.
He was his lifesaver.
‘person who is abnormal.’
He made Lucia’s cure and didn’t want anything.
At first, to be honest, I wondered if he was helping because of the Everlast guild in his background.
No matter how recently they became friends, he couldn’t understand why he was helping himself for nothing in return.
‘The senior prepared all the ingredients.’
I don’t know exactly what material it is.
I was only able to look at the performance and efficacy of materials that are not commonly seen.
However, I was able to intuit that it was absolutely not an ordinary material.
Adrias, who had suffered for months just using such materials on herself for free, felt strange.
‘Do you really like me?’
I thought about it, but surprisingly, there was no other answer.
Since he was the only senior who kept talking to him from the beginning, it was a highly probable family.
Looking at Lucia, whose face suddenly flushed, the Viscountess anxiously touched her forehead.
“Do you have a fever? Are you okay?”
“yes? yes I’m okay.”
Feeling the viscountess’s cold hand, Lucia was startled.
Then he tried to erase his thoughts about Adrias.
After the modest party, Lucia returned to her room and recalled thoughts that could not be connected.
First of all, Adrias.
Thanks to that, he had to repay the favor since he was given a new life.
‘Now I can’t be of any help.’
Now that she sees a future she can live in, she too is greedy.
In the meantime, it was just a feeling that I was breathing because I was alive, but not anymore.
The feelings that were inherent in her.
It was a sense of improvement.
‘I have a talent. In the meantime, I thought it was meaningless, so I was lazy, but not anymore.’
I wanted to be strong.
I wanted to become stronger and stand next to Adrias.
At least, it seemed that Diene and Vivian had to be as strong as they are now to be qualified.
‘No, that’s not enough.’
Is it because it was a life that I gave up once?
Her longing was proportional to the size of her talent.
As much as she is called a genius, she was able to objectively grasp her talent.
In the meantime, I was just sleeping in a coil, but now that I wake up, it’s my turn to stir the sky.
I wish everyone looked up.
Like Adrias Cromwell today.
‘I will become stronger than Adrias-senpai. So this time I’m the senior… ….’
Her two fists clenched as she secretly swore.

The seasons have changed.
Suddenly, the weather was scorching hot, and the Magic Faculty students passing by took off their thick robes and wore slightly lighter clothes.
“senior!”
Lucia, who returned to the academy a few days ago, approached me with a bright look.
Lately, I feel like they follow me more, but I’m sure it’s not an illusion.
“Shall we go?”
“yes!”
Recently, there was something I was doing with Lucia.
that’s exercise.
She was so sickly that even though she got better, she wasn’t in very good shape, so she suggested that we exercise together first.
‘It’s an admirable idea.’
It seems like I’ve gotten out of laziness now, so I was happy too.
In terms of talent alone, Lucia was probably one of the top wizards, but if you’re sincere, it’s perfect.
When it comes to exercise, it doesn’t matter.
Lucia lacked basic physical strength, so basic aerobic exercise and light anaerobic exercise were all. Even that couldn’t be done for very long, so her main daily routine was to watch me exercise.
Today, as usual, my workout was over soon, and Lucia, who was watching me, suddenly spoke to me.
“Senior, it’s vacation soon.”
“uh.”
“Do you have any other plans?”
“Yes.”
Lucia listened to my answer and showed an expression of anticipation. And then I immediately asked.
“What are you planning? Will it take long?”
“I think it will take a while. I have a place to go, but it is far away.”
Vacation was a very good time for spec-up.
Lectures were also lectures during the semester, but there were private lessons from Berial, so I couldn’t leave for a long time, but there was no problem during vacations. So, using this opportunity, I made plans to go on a trip.
‘In order to prepare for what will happen in the future, we must increase our power.’
Originally, things that had to be done by forming a party with other playables were also restricted due to the speciality of being a black magician. And since it was better for me to be on my own, I was thinking of future schedules in a way that I could digest as much as possible on my own.
‘First of all, prepare for an episode that Charon will cause.’
The episode that Karon causes and the story that I should have died in the original.
However, the future was pretty twisted, so I wasn’t involved, and I wondered if Charon would cause this episode.
As much as that, the current situation was different from the future I knew in many ways.
‘There’s nothing wrong with being prepared.’
It didn’t matter if Charon wasn’t working.
In the end, what matters is that I become strong.
“Where are you going?”
“Grandis Kingdom.”
The kingdom of Grandis, which exists at the western end.
Next to it was the Great Forest of Vayatra.
An endless primeval forest, a land where all kinds of bizarre mana anomalies, monsters, and poisonous insects exist that do not tolerate human footsteps.
It was a demonic land with a dragon’s tomb.
“Kingdom of Grandis? Do you go that far?”
“I have something to go.”
“hmm. that senior.”
“why.”
“If you’re done with your business, can you come to our manor?”
Lucia fidgeted, staring at the ground.
It was strangely cute, so I wanted to tease him, but he just nodded.
“okay. I will contact you in advance and come when the time is right.”
“Really? I will tell my father!”
“okay. I will go for real.”
Seeing Lucia smile when I said I was going, it definitely felt like I had a good feeling. Well, I can’t help but feel good about it. Looking at the efforts I made to save Lucia, it wasn’t normal.
‘If it wasn’t for me, he would have really died.’
Maybe I came into this world with these things in mind. If someone other than me had become Adrias, would he have been able to save Lucia?
‘If things go well, I’ll take care of the Hidden Peace in the Hollington Manor.’
Of course, finding the dragon’s grave didn’t seem so easy.
But it didn’t seem impossible.
Right now, I also have Mirinae, the Shadow Banshee, so I’ll be able to find it soon.
‘Before I go, I’ll have to see Amy’s face once in a while.’
