Episode 78. Growing Fame and Occurrence
“Is this the magic circle that is popular these days?”
“yes. Although it is a replica, the spell used is the same.”
Berial Castero, the head of the Department of Magic, received a piece of paper at his place where he was on probation.
When Burial injected mana, a flower was created, and fantasy magic spread around it.
“It is a peculiar idea. Above all, this. I expressed the ‘contradiction’ well with a simple order.”
The splendid fantasy magic that unfolded as a double magic circle meant nothing to Berial.
His aesthetic sense was different from others, and since he was a personality that could not form a consensus on being beautiful or pretty in the first place, only flowers withering in a green state were reflected in his eyes.
“I never thought I would have been such a student. It is increasingly surprising.”
“I am a student who has been talking a lot lately, but it seems that he stands out in the production field.”
When the professor from the Faculty of Magic, located across from Burial, spoke, Burial smiled.
“Adrias Cromwell. That’s interesting. Oh, by the way, it’s thanks to that student that I’m on probation here. What an amazing coincidence.”
“Is that so! What a nasty bastard!”
“no. That student is not ‘blame’, but ‘thanks’. I am very satisfied now.”
“Oh, I see. Well, the position of the head of the Department of Magic is a very difficult one. You must have been having a hard time with the heavy work, but I hope you can recover from fatigue and return with this opportunity.”
“What’s hard about being the head of the Department of Magic? I only have to worry about a few people in my senior class who signed up for tutoring with me. Even that, if I don’t want it, I can refuse, so there is nothing difficult about it.”
As his words and Burial’s thoughts kept diverging, the professor shut his mouth with a puzzled expression.
Whether the professor said it or not, Burial just looked at the flowers blooming on the magic circle with a nonchalant expression.
“The more I look at it, the more I admire it. Shall I teach you now?”
“Are you referring directly to Student Adrias?”
“As usual, Principal Deos scolded me for why I refused all lessons this year, but it just went well. Can I teach Adrias?”
“Ha, but Adrias is only in the 4th grade.”
“What do you do with a difference of just one year? why. Are you trying to stop me?”
“Oh no. It doesn’t mean that… ….”
“just joke. Anyway, thank you for telling me the news today. Please leave now.”
“yes? yes. Let’s just go in.”
After the professor left, Berial, who was left alone, carefully opened the magic circle.
Even so, I couldn’t stop laughing at what was so funny.
“iced coffee. really. It hits me.”
While holding a piece of paper with a magic circle on it, Burial expressed an unknown magic.
The magic was obviously manifested, but nothing had changed on the outside.
But Burial knew.
Even if the flowers on her hand are fine on the outside, they are all withered and dead.
“Immortality, one of the greatest ‘contradictions’. Among them, it became the beginning of youth. It’s really unique.”
These ideas come together to create powerful and great magic.
Those great magics are called original magic, and not only ‘contradiction’, but also ‘understanding’ and ‘purity’ were included in original magic.
When wizards create their own original magic, from that moment on, they are given the title of ‘Warlock’ and countless honors.
“Adrias Cromwell. Will you be able to become the foundation for my growth? I am very curious.”
Burial muttered to himself and burned the paper in his hand with pure magical power.
* * *
For the past few days, the surroundings have been noisy due to the magic circle I created.
It seems that the double magic circle, which I thought I had hidden well, was caught, but it seems that it was revealed in a place where people gathered.
Thanks to that, the fantasy magic created by my magic circle was revealed in front of many people, and as a result, the current magic circle boom was all over.
‘I thought it was an unusual idea. It’s an advanced trick that once again puts a magic circle into a plant created with a magic circle. The magic circle of fantasy magic was also a fairly high level spell.’
I couldn’t see it myself, but they said that not only Diene, whom I gave the magic circle as a gift to, but also Vivian and Lucia were there, but I don’t understand what the hell was going on.
Even if Lucia could wonder, why was Vivian there?
Even on the grounds of the Faculty of Magic.
‘Whatever. It’s okay because the results are good.’
In fact, the double magic circle I had hidden was to honor my father.
The fairy’s flower field where her father left behind her original sin.
As a result, when I was designing the magic circle, I naturally thought of my father first when I made flowers.
Anyway, today is finally the last day of the exchange meeting.
Thanks to the magic formation lecture with Keshurn, he quickly became close and was able to achieve his goal.
One regrettable thing is that he did not fully step on Grace, who would become an obstacle to Keshun later.
‘Since the first day, it has been quietly distorted, so it was difficult to touch it carelessly.’
Persecuting opponents who do nothing is not good for their image.
If I had known it would be like this, I should have tied the knot a little more firmly during the duel.
At the time, I couldn’t help but feel that that was enough.
‘Anyway, a prince is a prince.’
It was my mistake in judging that if it was Grace’s personality, she would always be able to catch the pod.
In the end, Keshurn will have no choice but to cope with it on his own.
Now, after all the lectures, I was heading to the banquet hall, the last remaining schedule.
The first and last days of the exchange meeting were decorated with banquets, as if it were a matter of sumi.
I felt it was a bit of a waste of time, but I was willing to take the time knowing that I wouldn’t have many chances to see Keshurn.
I headed to the train station to go to the administrative district, and I saw happy faces.
‘Diane and Vivian? Apart from Diene, why is Vivian here?’
Did the Faculty of Magic have business?
In any case, I approached them with a good heart and said hello.
“Dene. Vivian. Are you going to the administrative district?”
“uh? Adrias. You came just fine.”
Diene was flattered, then pointed at Vivian.
When he turned his gaze to Vivian, she looked away and hesitated, as if someone caught doing something wrong.
What’s going on?
“I came out to catch the train, and Vivien just happened to be there. But there’s no reason for him to be here, is there? So no matter how much I inquired, he didn’t tell me the reason, so I was frustrated.”
“yes. Did you?”
I see you started talking at some point.
Seeing Diene comfortably calling Vivian, it seems like she has made a friend.
Diene was a little worried because she only stayed close to Urihi, but now she can ease her worries.
“When I think about it, no matter how I look at it, it seems like I’ve been waiting for you, right? I thought something was strange from the time I asked for the magic circle you gave me the other day, but what are you two doing?”
“Diene Alven!”
Putting aside Vivian who suddenly shouted, what now?
What’s the matter between me and Vivian?
‘If you have to ask, is it a deep bond? Or between lifesavers?’
The experience of indolence’s barrier was an event that would be difficult to experience twice in one’s life.
The terror that happened after that survived thanks to Vivian.
By the way, I wondered why Vivian was there when the magic circle was activated, and that was it?
You’re not even a wizard, so why did you want to have my magic circle?
I put the questions aside and started answering.
“Vivian was in the same group during the midterms last year. At that time, we became very close while defeating the warlock together.”
“Really?”
I was looking at something suspicious.
I have nothing more to say. go back.
In the end, when he couldn’t get any more answers from me, he stared at Vivian this time.
Vivian’s face gradually turned red.
‘I’m angry.’
hey. The opponent is Vivian Veloccan.
You don’t know when you’ll roll your eyes and swing your sword?
Contrary to expectations, however, Vivian only blushed, twisted her body, and said nothing.
‘Vivian. You too have grown up a lot. Cultivate patience.’
I can say it’s all thanks to me.
Diene. you owe me your life
The three of us boarded the train together, thinking so foolishly.
Soon after arriving at the administrative building and entering the building where the banquet was previously held, most of the students were already gathered.
And right away, I started looking for the blue-haired Keshun.
I felt a little sad when I thought I wouldn’t see you for at least a few years after this time, but I should be grateful that I had a relationship like this.
‘Keshurn is only in his second year, so he has to live in the academy for a few more years. Still, it’s a relief that I was able to establish a relationship before I graduate.’
As we approached Keshurn, he greeted us warmly.
“ah! Brother Adrias.”
“You came first.”
“I felt so sad because I thought today was the last day, so I came as soon as the schedule was over.”
I was so proud that I could see my efforts so far from the title.
I was about to enjoy a banquet while having a conversation with him to commemorate the end before we parted ways, but Keshun suddenly said.
“Your name is Vivian Veloccan, right? It was a little disappointing that I didn’t have long time to hang out with the guys from the Engineering Department. But you always go out with Adrias-hyung. They seem to be very close, right?”
Hearing Keshun’s words, he looked to the side and found Vivian standing next to him before he knew it.
I honestly didn’t even notice. Hide the presence almost equivalent to the fluidization of nickel!
She nodded placidly and sipped from the glass in her hand.
When did you bring it again?
“I have a deep relationship with Vivian.”
“oh? Is that too? I thought they were a good pair.”
“what?”
What kind of ridiculous misunderstanding are you talking about?
I checked her expression to see if Vivian was in a bad mood.
And, as I expected, her face turned red as if she was angry at Keshun’s words.
“That Cashuren. Apologize to Vivian quickly. You can’t suddenly say something rude to a lady.”
Apologize if you don’t want to die.
“haha. yes. I made an excuse. sorry.”
Apparently, Keshurn took my words as a joke.
you really die
But again, Vivian’s patience shone through.
She casually accepted Keshun’s apology with a small shake of her head, but it seemed to me that I had reached the limit of my patience and barely moved.
‘I’m saving a lot of people today.’
Diene and Keshurn.
you owe me okay?
As soon as we sealed Vivian’s runaway and started talking again, I realized that Grace was not visible in the banquet hall.
“Come to think of it, Prince Grace isn’t there.”
“Ah, His Highness Grace said that he would join us later because he has business.”
“okay?”
I don’t see any room to step on him until the end.
I’m a little sorry, but I can’t help it.
Maybe after that day, I was already as depressed as I wanted.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to get back to life when I go back, but I hope that at least Keshun’s breath will be a little bit easier.
…It was the moment I thought.
“I am here!”
Someone suddenly entered the banquet hall and shouted.
While enjoying the banquet, we suddenly focused on him, wanting to know what was going on.
“Your Highness Grace?”
His sudden appearance is also an appearance, but the potion bottle in his hand is strangely familiar.
‘no way…?’
wouldn’t it? It won’t be.
There’s still a lot of time left before Kyler’s potion gets leaked, right?
“Adrias Cromwell! I will kill you here!”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Your Highness must have been under a lot of stress. No matter how much it is, I never thought you would do such a foolish thing to a noble from a foreign country.”
While everyone was watching the situation with confused eyes, Grace started drinking the potion.
‘I have to stop it.’
I immediately jumped forward and drew my sword.
I belatedly tried to stop it by blowing the sword wind, but it was already too late.
Quaaaaang-!
Grace lightly blocked my sword wind and looked at me with black eyes with the whites erased.
“Is that enough? Adrias Cromwell.”
An intense energy of mana began to swirl around Grace.
