Episode 82
– Being born with a mana affinity is a blessing in itself.
I remembered what Master Merdin had said before returning.
not a butler
I clearly distinguish between the ‘teacher’ before the regression and the butler now.
Even if they were the same person, it was Master Merdin before the return that taught me.
now i knew
It’s only now that I’ve become several times stronger than I was back then and have accumulated experience.
“I understand now.”
Her body has become so dirty that it is difficult to even call her a wizard.
To the point where I thought I had managed to use magic until now.
– I was not born.
I remembered the words of my master.
The ability to analyze magic and establish formulas was obviously great, but it ended up there.
No matter how good your analytical skills are and how insightful you are, your limits are clear unless your body supports you.
After all, circles are everything.
In the world of wizards, circles were no different from ranks.
Master despaired.
On the way, I met Twilight.
From there, as the butler said.
He forcibly twisted his body and obtained his talent through it.
The price was also great.
Because the circle ruptured and became like a time limit.
“The you I know eventually collapsed without being able to overcome that limit. I remember.”
There was no way.
No matter how good my analytical skills and insight are, the teacher lacks time… ….
But not anymore.
I’ve been back in time
You who lie now are not my master, but you will never fall to the same fate.
“Then let’s begin.”
I checked the butler’s physical condition and started closing the wrong mana circulation points one by one.
‘I’m in very poor physical condition.’
Paradoxically, as clear as the problem was, the solution was also clear.
It was clear as well as simple.
However, it could be said that it was almost impossible to execute it.
The opponent’s physical condition, habit, and mana circulation speed… …It is possible to take action only when you understand everything, down to the smallest details.
‘But I can.’
Circle 9 magic proficiency.
It would be safe to say that no one understood the training method the butler was learning as much as I did.
There was no hesitation in my hand in closing and repairing the butler’s mana circulation point because I had repeated the calculations many times.
What should be closed is firmly closed.
What needs to be repaired will definitely be repaired.
Time has passed.
However, he forgot that concept and focused on restoring the butler’s circle.
All the work was done when the bright sun came up.
“under.”
With a spontaneous smile, I retrieved the magic I had spread out.
It sounds natural.
The result was a great success.
* * *
Butler Merdin opened his eyes.
The sunlight was so bright that it was hard to open my eyes properly.
“Okay.”
Reflexively frowning, he stood up.
A body that is not as heavy as usual.
He didn’t show it, but his body creaking was a daily occurrence.
However, he tried to get himself up somehow. The discomfort caused by mana circulation not working properly is now familiar.
Even the pain… ….
“…hmm?”
But at that moment, he realized something was wrong.
“her.”
light.
Unlike usual, my body moved as I thought.
Rather, he exclaimed involuntarily at the unfamiliar sensation.
How long does it take to feel comfortable?
It was always dangerous, like walking on a knife’s edge, but it was definitely different now.
‘That’s strange. really.’
It’s really weird.
It’s been quite a while since the obvious stopped being obvious.
you’ll be thinking like this
Then he reflexively came to an idea.
‘What about mana circulation?’
I don’t know the details, but in this state, the mana circulation might be a little different?
With that thought he… ….
“stop.”
However, the attempt was stopped by a sudden voice.
“…young master?”
The owner of the voice is Mikhail.
said Mikhail, sitting in a chair and not even looking at him.
“Don’t try to circulate mana with such a flawed training method, just wait.”
“her.”
At that moment, the events of the previous night flashed through his mind.
“no way…Did you do it for my body condition now?”
“Then who would have done it?”
“her.”
Even he, who was not embarrassed at all, couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
My physical condition has obviously improved.
that’s clear
It is also true that Mikhail made such an offer to him right away.
but.
‘Does that really work?’
Merdin looked at me in disbelief.
But it is true that it has changed.
“…Is it really a blessing from God?”
“You said so. Did you live fooled by the butler?”
“It was like that for Bocchan.”
Michael turned his head slightly and glared at him.
It’s God’s grace.
Honestly, it’s hard to believe as I’m not even a devout believer.
‘It’s hard to believe that it’s happened like this.’
In just one night, my condition improved dramatically.
I can’t help but think that this is truly a gift from God.
Mikhail said then.
“Be careful instead. I haven’t fully recovered yet.”
“yes?”
“God doesn’t just make you feel better. To some extent, you need to manage yourself.”
With those words, Mikhail threw a glass bottle at him.
“I take one pill a day. The important thing is to learn the ‘correct’ training method. That’s the most important thing.”
“Heh heh…”
Merdin looked at the bottle of medicine received from Mikhail with a puzzled expression.
There were white pills gathered here and there, but… ….
“What is this?”
“The purified fruit of the World Tree.”
“…!”
The promise not to be surprised really disappeared in an instant.
“Wait a minute, what?! three worlds… …what?!”
“The fruit of the world tree.”
“Oh no what…?!”
It’s a world tree!
I knew that this damn boy had contact with that transcendent being, but that and that are different things.
“How can you do something like that so easily! How much does it cost to sell it!”
“How long. It’s hard to put a price on it.”
“Does anyone know that?!”
He knows very well how valuable the fruit of the World Tree is.
There was a time when I was looking for all sorts of medicines to improve my condition, so there is no way I didn’t know.
However, Mikhail’s expression did not change at all.
It seems natural.
It doesn’t even look like it’s a waste.
“Still, if I can rehabilitate the talents of the 8th circle, I think it will be cheap.”
“…!”
At that, he opened his eyes.
It’s the 7th circle… …swallowed the word. It’s not like I didn’t know that in the first place.
“Do you think I can reach the 8th circle?”
“of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have done this.”
“Ha but…”
Talent.
Those simple words lingered in the butler’s mouth.
There is an awareness that insight is great, but not a circle.
8 circles.
Isn’t it a state that I couldn’t reach even though I struggled endlessly.
“…I lack talent.”
“lack?”
At that moment, Mikhail laughed.
It’s like I’ve heard the same thing.
“The butler has better insight and analytical skills than anyone else. Isn’t that a talent?”
“A talent to form a circle.”
the butler said helplessly.
“Circles are no different than ranks. It is hardened by nature and cannot be broken. I couldn’t reach the 8th circle even though I tried that unreasonable method.”
A cynicism flowed out spontaneously.
insight? analyze?
What would you do if you had that kind of talent?
The talent to form the most important circle is disastrously lacking.
but.
“You’re talking bullshit again.”
Mikhail took it lightly.
“It’s bullshit! Even if my body recovers, my talent remains the same! Nothing changes!”
“Nothing changes. Anyway, if you open your mouth, it’s bullshit.”
“…yes?”
Mikhail got up.
He pressed his eyes a few times as if he was tired, then continued.
“That defect the butler learned. I said I’d improve it. Don’t you believe me?”
“that…“
I did.
But is that really possible?
To think that a young man who had just turned 20, not a great mage, had completed the twilight wish.
“jeon…”
he opened his mouth.
Nonsense!
I was trying to say
But for some reason the words don’t come out.
Mikhail’s actions he has been watching so far… ….
Why did he so persistently follow the young master and do dirty things to himself?
I remembered what had happened so far.
And the moment I thought about it.
“Is that really possible?”
Unbeknownst to me, those words were coming out of my mouth.
funny.
The ‘wizard of twilight’ is pinning their hopes on this young man who just turned 20.
And Mikhail said.
“of course.”
It was an affirmation without any hesitation.
* * *
I must have said that I would learn to be a butler.
There was no reason to delay.
I immediately taught him the self-circulation ceremony.
Of course not the same as what I write.
The butler is taught an improved meal tailored to him.
The mana output performance part was a bit low, but the stability was raised dramatically.
But that was enough.
“What the hell is this…!”
As soon as he opened his eyes after circulating mana according to the training method he had learned from me, his body trembled with passion.
It must have felt its stability and potential right away.
sure this is different.
That was evident in the butler’s expression.
“What is this, Bocchan!”
“I told you. that it has improved How is it not bad?”
“This is not bad enough!”
The butler shuddered.
Her trembling eyes are ready to shed tears at any moment.
“Revolution! The longing that the Twilights of the previous generation tried to achieve by sacrificing themselves!”
“What is it?”
I shrugged and said.
“If I had to say it, it’s a training method that copied the body structure of those geniuses the butler said.”
“How on earth…”
“That’s because there was a result that someone had built up from generation to generation right away.”
I pointed to the butler.
“It was a messy and flawed training method, but it certainly wasn’t bad.”
“…!”
The butler’s eyes widened.
“No matter how much I am, if it weren’t for the results accumulated by the Twilights, I wouldn’t have been able to complete it so easily.”
“….”
It was a tribute to my own twilight. It may seem clunky and maybe even cheeky.
Anyway, I had to admit it.
That I, too, inherited the twilight pulse from the butler.
Even if you can’t reveal it to the butler, that fact doesn’t go away.
in short.
“It means that the twilight’s outbursts weren’t meaningless.”
“…her.”
At my words, the butler’s eyes trembled slightly. With dangerous eyes that seemed to shed tears at any moment.
But, as usual, he laughed instead of crying.
“that…It’s kind of fine.”
* * *
“Whoops.”
way to leave the country.
Lian smirked as she sat on her horse and touched her new armor.
It was a reward given to him by the religious government for his meritorious work.
“Is it that good?”
“of course. For guys like me, weapons and armor are everything.”
The new item he received was by no means ordinary armor.
It is thin and light enough to be no different from light armor, but its durability exceeds that of heavy armor.
Even the armor itself contains divine spells, so certain wounds can be gradually healed.
“It’s not a bad thing. I will have something to write about right away.”
“hmm?”
Lian tilted her head.
“right now? Come to think of it, I don’t think I heard where we were going.”
“Ah destination?”
It’s not such a great place.
I casually said something about the destination.
“Country of Draculion.”
then that moment.
“…what?”
Lian’s grinning expression hardened, and he asked stiffly.
“Could it be, ‘A land that never sleeps?”
“I know.”
“ah…”
At my words, Lian trembled with her mouth open.
“Oh no, damn Hekausi!”
He looked up at the sky and screamed desperately.
“The young warrior you have chosen will walk into the tomb at your behest! Look down!”
“It is a rich year.”
actually.
It’s not that I don’t understand his reaction.
Count Draculion.
Although it was a change at one time, it was still quite a prosperous territory.
But now, no one praises the Draculion family’s estate.
No wonder.
Count Draculion committed an unpardonable felony and was sealed away by the Church.
Immortality The purpose he longed for.
That psychopath swallowed half of my territory for that.
and….
The territory where the monster was sealed was our next destination.
Great mage who transcends by regression
