The great mage who transcends by regression Episode 32
My brain stopped.
Father…Are you coming?
So, you mean that the father is leaving everything else behind to come here?
“Joe is gone.”
Weiss muttered that with a pale face.
If so, what should I do?
If your father is already coming, isn’t there any reason to refrain from high-circle magic?
“I can’t help it.”
I came to a conclusion right away.
Anyway, the choices I can make in this situation are limited.
Eileen looked at me and asked.
“Are you planning on using magic to escape first? Why hide now… ….”
“No, I am a son of the flame attribute. As Dori, who became his son, how could he aim his staff at his father?”
“…Then what are you going to do?”
Eileen asked as if she didn’t understand.
“If you don’t have any intention of using magic, how can you….”
“hostage.”
Okay, let’s change our thinking.
Only an unexpected plan can overcome a crisis.
“As a hostage…buy time.”
“no.”
Eileen abandoned the concept.
“Sounds like a hostage…!”
“listen.”
Due to the lack of time, I quickly decided to explain my plan to the group.
“Viscount Nostra…He’s a great hostage. Because of his father’s personality, he will never be able to see it.”
“….”
At my words, Eileen’s expression changed even more as if it were absurd.
Of course, this is not the end.
“As long as Viscount Nostra is present, my father cannot hastily attack us. You can buy the most important time.”
“…so?”
“In the meantime, I diverted my father’s attention and twisted the coordinates to escape the territory. A perfect plan.”
There are a few things I didn’t say, but let’s just say it’s perfect.
‘Yes hostage… …It’s just a hostage.’
The evaluation of the party who heard my decision was really simple.
“It’s your usual Mikhail.”
“The ability to uselessly persuasive to bullshit is outstanding.”
I wonder why the evaluation of me is so strange, but let’s say good is good.
Anyway, while restraining the viscount, he quietly backed away. It was to buy some time.
But just like everything in the world.
thud.
How it doesn’t go the way you want it to.
The ground rang once.
“….”
No matter who said it first, my body stiffened.
I stopped dragging Viscount Nostra, who was still in a state of fainting, and raised my head.
Wow!
Something fell from the sky with a roar.
Red eyes flashed in the middle of the thick dust.
“Where are you?”
Oh God.
I’m not ready mentally, but are you really that person?
And the god in my heart said.
jump right out
Through the dust, the owner of the eye light appeared.
Two big forearms that seem like they could easily break my legs, beyond what I’ve still corrected.
“Who dares to take my close friend hostage?”
A sense of intimidation befitting the title of Grand Mage.
I looked at my father like that and slightly averted my eyes.
No, why are you so scared?
Is it true that the son is afraid of his father whom he has not met in a long time?
When I tried to avoid my eyes like that.
“….”
I met my father’s eyes.
Then.
“…huh?”
Suddenly, my father tilted his head, and then a tendon sprouted from his forearm holding the staff.
hot.
In that moment, I realized one thing.
Traditionally, the red eyes unique to our family are a very rare species.
“haha.”
The mask doesn’t cover the eye sockets.
“Son.”
Father spread his arms wide.
“It’s a thrilling meeting.”
“….”
At my father’s words, I quietly nodded and slung the viscount roughly over my shoulder.
“Come on, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa… …!”
I decided to fry it.
* * *
Where am I? Who am I?
That was exactly what Viscount Nostra thought as soon as he opened his eyes.
“What is this….”
what the hell is the situation
He must have been trying to pick up the poor puppy he hadn’t seen in a while.
Such is the recent disappointment of the viscount.
He is healing the hardships of life by raising a companion animal.
It is clear that all of his recent magic theories are related to companion animals.
How to keep your puppy clean How to toilet train efficiently How to bathe in 30 seconds and more.
Anyway, today the Viscount was in a situation where he was trying to pick up a pitifully abandoned puppy on the street.
I’m sure it must have been… ….
“Are you awake?”
A familiar voice in my ears then.
The Viscount involuntarily turned his head in the direction from which the voice was heard.
And what’s there… ….
“…Master Do?”
“Yeah, it’s been a while. disciple.”
Mikhail replied with a benevolent smile.
Of course, the situation itself where she was smiling like that didn’t seem to have anything at all.
I was just running around.
“Oh no, what is this!”
“What? You are running away.”
Mikhail was moving his legs like crazy even as he said that.
“We’re X, disciples.”
“….”
What the hell did this guy do to keep running? The Viscount thought for a moment.
“ah.”
Soon, he belatedly recalled the obvious fact that this place he was in was the ‘Walpurgis Territory’.
Yes, the estate of the Marquis of Walpurgis.
Wasn’t it the land held by the Marquis of Walpurgis?
And right now, the viscount couldn’t be unaware of how much the marquis had been grinding his teeth until recently.
‘What are you crazy about?’
I don’t know why I walked into the limbs on my own feet.
I’m sure Mikhail wouldn’t be the one who didn’t know that… ….
“Master, why are you here?”
“I know. why did you come… ….”
He muttered in a melancholy voice uncharacteristic of Mikhail.
“I didn’t want to come, but fate brings me here….”
“…yes?”
I don’t know what bullshit you are talking about.
But once it was clear that it was not his intention for Mikhail to come here.
“That Master…As you can see, His Excellency is quite angry.”
“know.”
After saying that, Mikhail glanced behind him. Then, as soon as he looked back, he turned his head again with a pale blue face.
“…I watched it for a while.”
“….”
At those words, the viscount’s face also became solemn.
The meaning of seeing for a while is… ….
“Mikhail yes inoum…!!”
An old voice resounding throughout the territory.
The Viscount knew at once who the owner of the voice was.
‘Ah, my God.’
Even though I prayed inwardly, honestly, it was absurd.
“No, wouldn’t this have happened if I had come home right away!”
“How are you going? If I had gone right away, I wouldn’t have been hit as I went.”
“No, what would a warrior say because he was afraid of that one thing!”
“Aren’t you scared?”
At Mikhail’s words, the viscount decided to self-objectify for a while.
‘It’s an angry Aidan… ….’
It wasn’t something I didn’t experience when I was young. Aidan, whose eyes were clearly turned upside down… ….
“…That sounds scary.”
yeah definitely scary
Was it not for nothing that he was called the Walpurgis Bloodthirsty in his youth?
The viscount quickly acknowledged it and decided to calmly assess the situation once again.
Why is he running away like this right now?
‘No wait.’
At that moment, the Viscount’s cool intelligence shone through.
“Master.”
“say.”
“So now the situation…Isn’t that what His Excellency got caught on and he’s on the run?”
“yes.”
“Then why do you have to drag me around? It would be rather inconvenient to run away.”
Looking at it roughly, the reason why he fainted himself in the first place was not to be caught.
But since you’ve already been caught, there’s no need to drag yourself around… ….
“No.”
“…yes?”
“You are held hostage.”
“….”
Hearing those words, the Viscount involuntarily stared at Mikhail with his mouth open.
What the hell is this person trying to say?
“person…what?”
“hostage.”
Mikhail emphasized again and put strength into the hand holding the Viscount.
“I need you to live.”
“….”
“So you understand? From now on, whether we live or die, we will go together.”
No, this is called a warrior… ….
The Viscount felt the swear words rising up to his throat, but he endured it with superhuman mental strength.
Damn.
In the end, the viscount gave up and decided to leave his body to the impending disaster with his eyes tightly closed.
* * *
When do you think people die?
“Aaaaaagh!”
Yes, right now.
I’m about to die now How the hell did this happen?
After serious thinking, I came to a simple conclusion.
“Do you think there is nothing wrong with me?”
“Suddenly, what kind of crazy bitterness is that?”
Rian gritted his teeth and said. Suddenly, he was chased by the representative great mage of the empire.
I can understand that kind of reaction.
but there is such a thing
“Fate made it this way, and I don’t think it was my fault.”
“Close your mouth and let’s run. before falling behind.”
Ryan was talking as if it was nothing, but the situation was not so easy.
“Mikhail, stop it now! If you’re willing to stop right now and be punished, I’ll make extenuating circumstances!”
I started to run even faster as I saw my father chasing after me from behind.
In my experience, my father’s extenuating circumstances were far from extenuating the normal in the usual sense.
If he is caught like this, the cause of the hero’s death will become a runaway… …!
I immediately shouted.
“Father, if you follow me any further, I can’t guarantee Viscount Nostra’s life!”
“Let’s try it.”
“…Aidan?”
Viscount Nostra made an expression of absurdity at the sword answer without the slightest hesitation.
“What are you talking about? Why are you giving up on me?”
“Sacrifice your life for justice. Today, I have to prove that justice is alive by beating my son.”
“Oh no…hey! We were friends! Did you even worry about it!”
“It took about a second.”
“hey…!”
The Viscount looked at his father with an expression that made him feel betrayed, but his father’s expression was very determined.
Are you sincere?
In front of my father’s ruthlessness, even my ambitious plan, the hostage operation, would not work.
Then there are not many plans left.
Yes, in this situation… ….
“Father, don’t you miss your ugly son?”
I bet everything on the denial that will remain as much as the nails in my father’s heart.
In the first place, blood ties transcend many things.
“I missed my father.”
Saying that, she shed a tear. I felt a gaze from behind, as if looking at some disgusting creature, but it was none of my business.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if the father doesn’t come over.
If there is a moment of hesitation, all you have to do is distract your father and prepare for the teleport.
And my father responded to my sincerity.
“I missed you too.”
“also…!”
My father looked at me for a moment with a melancholy expression, then raised the staff as he spoke.
“My dear son, do you see this staff member here?”
“Yes, I see.”
“Here, in this corner, there is a spot that is not red.”
My father spoke to me with a warm voice.
“This father reserved it for you.”
“Ah yes.”
oh this doesn’t work
