The Grand Mage who transcends by returning Episode 24
“Heh heh It’s been a long time since I came here in person.”
The Marquis of Walpurgis muttered as he looked around with a nostalgic expression.
when I was young.
The Marquis also had a period of stormy anger in its own way. At that time he had stopped by this duchy of Lindel.
“You seem really energetic and improved compared to back then.”
It was a duchy back then, so it was a bustling place, but it looks better than then.
“But aren’t we just as good as him?”
“It doesn’t.”
With the success of his son, Mikhail, the current Walpurgis Marquis family is literally having its heyday.
“I definitely don’t have much to worry about these days. that…Except for the damn son.”
At that, the butler laughed.
“It’s meaningless even if you, Bocchan, avoided it like that.”
I don’t know why the 10th Circle Grand Mage is running away from his father because he’s scared.
Of course, this parent-child relationship has a strange top-down relationship that cannot be explained by the circle… ….
“By the way, does His Excellency really think that the young master is in the Duchy of Lindel?”
“It’s a gut feeling.”
The Marquis answered simply.
“There is no logic or anything like that, but what is it? It feels like my son is here.”
“Uhm.”
The butler drooled for a while at the Marquis’ words.
Isn’t it the fear of Walpurgis that can’t deny the words of the Marquis at all?
Even if I put in my mouth something unclear like intuition, I wonder if it should be said that it comes true… ….
“Then we can go to His Excellency as planned. If the young master were around here, he would have reached the ears of the Duke.”
“Whatever it is.”
Saying that, the Marquis turned his gaze toward the castle over there.
“Three years….”
hot.
Starting from the hand holding the staff, a thick tendon sprouted from the forearm.
3 years.
Short if short, long if long.
But it was long for the Marquis.
To be precise, should I say it was long from the father’s point of view?
Imagine that your son disappeared without any contact and without returning home.
Even if you say you saved the world, isn’t it a situation where you’re not sure what side effects you might have suffered in the process?
Of course, from the father’s point of view, he has no choice but to worry about his son.
But the son… ….
“after.”
The Marquis squeezed his staff and slowly closed his eyes.
“It’s been a while, this feeling….”
“I don’t think it’s been a long time, but I think.”
The butler, who had been watching this strange father-son relationship closely, took a sneak peek, but to no avail.
The Marquis is also Walpurgis.
It’s not like I’m the type to accept such ‘trivial advice’.
“Come to think of it, the Viscount was half-crying earlier, was it okay?”
“are you okay. are you okay.”
The Marquis waved his hand with an expression of asking everything.
“You gave me freedom and took good care of me when I played that shit up until now.”
“Yes…Is it?”
“Then you should do this. It’s worth watching the viscount get research funds.”
“hmm.”
The butler nodded quietly.
Well, the Viscount is getting some money for research on my magic. It doesn’t matter if you get results and report back and forth faithfully.
Anyway.
“Well, if you get that money, you have to do some work. It’s also meant to clear up karma, heh heh.”
The butler also decided not to deny the Marquis’ words. In fact, he wasn’t even wrong.
“Anyway, let’s go.”
“However, Your Excellency.”
“hmm?”
The butler glanced at the staff held by the Marquis and said.
“When I see the young master…Are you really going to use that staff?”
“What’s not to write?”
The Marquis tilted his head with an expression that said it was not even funny.
“Besides, haven’t I been seeing the road to the next stage little by little lately?”
“Yes…Joe?”
“Somehow, when I see my son, I feel like I can definitely reach the next level…I must say that I have such a hunch. I can’t explain the exact reason.”
“hmm.”
Seeing the Marquis’ reaction, the butler let out a drool and then turned his gaze back to the staff.
red
really very red
‘…Run away, young boy.’
The butler muttered to himself, thinking of Mikhail somewhere.
* * *
No fuck. No way.
“ah…Buggy?”
“I guess I didn’t hear you.”
Eileen nodded as if she understood and continued.
“I don’t know why, but he said that His Excellency, the Marquis of Walpurgis would visit the estate.”
“….”
“I don’t know exactly why. But are you sure he’s coming?”
“….”
I couldn’t answer.
no how do you answer this
It’s even more hopeless that I think I know the reason. When was the last time you felt such an enormous fear after annihilating the Demon God?
[Hey, what is the reason your father came all the way here? I don’t know.]
“Flee….”
I said so soon after I stopped without going still.
“You have to run away too!”
“That’s another fucking disease.”
Ryan looked at me with a pitiful expression, but I couldn’t react to that like that right now.
You really have to run away.
“Quickly teleport before my father sees…!”
“Are you sure you won’t get caught?”
“If you look at it like this, it’s the 10th circle.”
Circle 10 is not your dog’s name. No matter how much my father is in the 8th circle and is about to enter the 9th circle, I will not be found out… …
“No, it’s that Marquis of ‘Walpurgis’. your father.”
“….”
“I don’t know about the other great magicians, but he’s someone I’ve seen since childhood.”
It’s Eileen who pokes a sore spot for no reason.
He continued before I could react.
“You must be surprisingly good at magic or getting your spirits up. Wasn’t that why you intentionally didn’t go near the Marquis of Walpurgis estate?”
I couldn’t deny it.
No, why did he keep beating me based on facts like this from before?
It makes people uncomfortable.
“Besides, this child Riuel’s sympathy hasn’t been perfected yet.”
“That too…yes.”
You’ll need me for now, but it’s okay to leave this alone again. It’s not up to you to complete the task once you’ve done it.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t just dive into hellfire and get golden brown.
“This…I can’t help it.”
[It’s karma. Accept it.]
Set scoffed from the side.
“hmm.”
At that time, Wise looked at me with a very complicated expression and said,
“But the fact that the Marquis of Walpurgis is around here means that if I do something wrong, I will be dragged away too.”
“Do you think you won’t be dragged away?”
Even if you look at it like this, isn’t it strange to think that Lemegeton won’t be taken away even though Lemegeton has a bit of a strong influence in our family?
“…Let’s run away, Mikhail.”
Weiss continued with a firm expression.
“Or really, create a miraculous movement, stabilize that child perfectly, and just remove the body.”
“hmm.”
If it was easy, I wouldn’t even worry about it. No matter how great a mage is, there are limits.
Anyway, by the time I was rolling my head here and there for survival… ….
[…] …Um?]
As if he had nothing to do with it, Set, who was sitting on my shoulder, suddenly tilted his head.
[what. I have a strangely ominous feeling… ….]
“Suddenly, what else?”
It’s full of ominous signs, but they say there’s nothing more sinister here.
[Uhm….]
Set frowned and placed both index fingers on his forehead.
Been there for so long
[Uh huh…!]
Didn’t he start screaming in surprise? The boy shuddered and then shouted.
[understood! I understand!]
“What bullshit again.”
He’s also getting more and more seizures these days.
But whatever I said, Set shouted again.
[It’s an apostle! The apostle is near here!]
“….”
[Let’s run away too, Mikhail! This is an angle that needs to be pulled out immediately!]
Set immediately changed his posture and shouted urgently.
I forgot that it even fell on my feet and looked at him with a pitiful expression.
I don’t think he was like that when we first met, but what should I say, he’s become insignificant these days.
But this time, I agree. First of all, this is a mark that must be escaped no matter what.
“No, you have to adjust this kid? What is escape? It’s just cheap and cheap… ….”
“Wait, Eileen.”
Then I realized something important. I’m finally getting close to the fragments of the truth.
“Controlling Riuel’s body or mind is controlling, so do I really need to do that in your family?”
“…yes?”
At those words, Eileen stared blankly at me. What the hell kind of bullshit was on his face, but it didn’t matter.
“lets think. There is no need for me to follow you.”
I wonder if you follow me
“….”
Eileen, who was frozen for a moment at those words, immediately shouted urgently.
“I can’t stand this bastard… …!”
“< Sleep >.”
“Kek.”
Eileen was knocked over.
Before he completely fell to the ground, I made him float safely with magic and looked up at the sky with a melancholy expression.
“It’s like…It’s like the Pied Piper.”
“Let’s get up quickly and stop talking bullshit.”
Lian pointed backwards with an uninspired expression, as if he had expected this from the beginning.
“You don’t look surprised at all.”
“It just seemed like this for some reason.”
A look that doesn’t surprise me.
In this way, there is no reason to meet Duke Lindel, and at the same time, there is no need to be wary of being caught by his father.
Unless you have a reason to walk into hellfire, there are many ways.
“Okay let’s go.”
father that… ….
I’ll see you someday, but after I cool down… …I want to see you.
really. please.
* * *
“It’s been a while, Aidan.”
“You are still the same, Palam.”
Marquis of Walpurgis and Duke of Lindel.
It is not common for those at the pinnacle of imperial power to face each other.
Especially in this case.
“But Aidan…Didn’t you see my daughter on the way?”
“hmm?”
“No, that pink….”
“What are you talking about?”
“…No, no.”
Duke Lindell shook his head in a cold sweat.
Should I say it’s fortunate, judging from the reaction, I don’t think I’ve seen Eileen.
“So what are you here for?”
“What have you come up with? First of all, the first priority is that my son might be around here… ….”
“Is it your son, Mikhail?”
“yes.”
Duke Lindell opened his eyes wide as if he was interested.
“That child came around here? It’s true I haven’t heard… ….”
“If the child decides to hide, who will find him? He probably didn’t want to tell you.”
“hmm.”
At those words, Duke Lindell nodded. Well, that is true.
A great mage of the 10th circle that can be said to be non-existent throughout history.
It’s hard for even the master himself to notice.
“Hmm, it’s not like I don’t have anything to ask for advice from you….”
The moment I spoke like that.
– Sir, may I come in?
“Come in.”
a sudden voice.
In a situation where the duke and the marquis are facing each other, it’s definitely not an ordinary thing to report.
Duke Lindell listened to the report with a solemn expression on his ear.
and after a while
“Ughhh…?”
As if he couldn’t believe it, he opened his eyes wide and saw the Marquis of Walpurgis.
the Marquis asked.
“Why are you looking at me all of a sudden?”
“No that….”
Duke Lindel said to him with a subtle expression.
“Your son just…You said you kidnapped my daughter?”
“…!”
Kwak.
The Marquis held the staff.
