Infinite Mage - Chapter 1012
God’s Shadow (4)
Stang Kingdom.
It is located at the southernmost tip of the Central Continent, and was also a place where damage from demons was relatively minimal.
“Due to the atomic bomb project, most of Hell’s armies entered Vaska’s flower fields.”
Amy received Rampa’s words.
“Then they were baptized by Sirone’s light and all scattered to the south.”
“yes. It hit the southern continent like a buckshot. However, the southern continent is not as densely populated with countries as the central continent, and the number of demons has also decreased, so it was spared catastrophic damage.”
Sirone said.
“And the southern continent… is the only region where the Legion Commander’s Demon World is not open.”
It was also where Fermi ruled.
“I guess I should say I’m lucky. However, the kingdom of Stang in the central continent is the lucky one in the battlefield. Thanks to the demons spreading from Tormia, the kingdom of Stang in the west suffered little damage. Due to these various factors, he is considered one of the candidates to become the next president of the world.”
In other words, there was a possibility that he would stand out in the temple that would be held soon.
“This is the Kingdom of Stang.”
As Sirone looked, the wall built along the border stretched all the way to the horizon.
‘Lucky man on the battlefield.’
I could see how blessed I was just by having an intact castle wall.
We left before dawn and the morning sun was shining when we crossed the border.
When we arrived at the border guard station, the highest minister of the Kingdom of Stang was already waiting.
“Star of the Ivory Tower, it is such an honor for you to visit our Kingdom of Stang.”
The official lowered his head to the deepest point and delivered the king’s personal letter with both hands.
When Sirone looked through the letter, he found an apology for not being able to come to meet him.
‘Definitely… not an ordinary person.’ No matter how you wrap it in rhetoric, it does not change the fact that the king of a single country ignored the Five Great Seongs.
“Your Majesty wanted to come out in person. However, due to the current influx of immigrants from other countries…
“It’s okay.”
Politicians’ words have no value.
The only reason I came here anyway was to be a wizard, and it was better to get the job done quickly.
“I want to take a field trip first.”
The official, who had already heard the situation from Rampa, bowed his head as if waiting.
“yes. “I have the carriage ready.” The reason I didn’t use magic was because it was just a ‘field trip’.
The place we arrived at was the ‘Stang National Magic School’, which had recently been established in the Kingdom of Stang.
While the official proceeded with the procedure, Sirone was able to hear detailed information from Rampa.
“The Kingdom of Stang, which suffered very little damage in the war, accepted immigrants and aggressively incorporated talented people from all over the world. Wenna We Judd is one of them.”
“The fact that it was discovered this late means that there was a Duke of the Kingdom of Stang.”
“yes. It appears that they were scouted in complete secrecy and paid a large sum of money. Based on our investigation, it appears that the position of head of the Magic Association of the Kingdom of Stang has also been conditionally guaranteed.”
“The head of the Magic Association… this
was not an offer he could make to a seven-year-old wizard.
‘What kind of child is this?’
When I entered the school, half out of curiosity and half in anticipation, I saw many students engrossed in training.
As expected, the intensity of the training was considerable and the ages were all different.
While I was looking for the youngest child, an official who had completed the tour formalities came carrying documents.
“As Oh Dae-seong requested, my status was left undisclosed. “The students and teachers know that the Kingdom inspector is coming.”
“thank you.”
In any case, the comprehensive analysis would have been completed by the 10 magicians of the Ivory Tower.
‘Let’s keep a distance and watch.’
If you are a seven-year-old child who is responsible for the extreme evil Havitz, it would be better to approach it cautiously.
Rampa pointed to the training ground number two.
“That kid is a wizard.”
Where Shirone and Amy turned their gaze, a girl was fighting with adults.
An intelligent face and blonde hair braided into two pigtails. The body was smaller than expected.
‘He just looks like an ordinary kid.’
However, you could tell just by the movement that it was beyond ordinary categories.
“fun! fun!”
Among the young people who were using their magic with all their might, she was the only one who was excited.
The most bizarre thing was that all 14 students were aiming for the wizard.
Amy couldn’t say anything. If you are just good at avoiding attacks, you can be called an excellent wizard, but…
“What is that…?”
A concept so familiar to humans, called ‘movement’, was being used in a form we had never seen before.
“Super logic.”
Sirone said.
“It completely deviates from our common sense of cause and effect. It’s not something you can get through training. It’s not even a talent. Just…
to give an exact definition.
“That’s how I was born.” A sign of presence was felt behind Sirone and his group.
“So is our analysis.”
Five first-star residents of the Ivory Tower of the Demonic Council of 10 and their satellites were standing in two rows.
The official shrank his shoulders at the sudden appearance and instinctively bowed.
‘13 stars gathered in one place? This is unprecedented in our kingdom.’
Maybe it’s the Wizard’s value.
The 10 magicians, without even looking at the official, approached Shirone and greeted him.
“See you Oh Dae-seong.”
After a while, Sirone, who had been watching the Wizard, belatedly looked back.
“nice to meet you. I saw it at the Ivory Tower meeting. “I’m sorry about Mr. Fried.”
Leader Bartok shook his head.
“Master enjoyed fighting powerful enemies. “You must have had no regrets since your opponent was Ymir.”
He explained that he thought a face-to-face meeting was sufficient.
“As Oh Dae-seong estimates, the Wizard is a super-logic-based wizard. “Maternal fetal awakening, or acquiring synesthesia at the fetal stage, seems to have had a major impact.”
Rampa continued.
“We see color in sound and hear sound in form. Of course, other wizards are also possible. However, what is unique about the Wizard is that even his way of thinking is synesthetic.”
said the leader.
“Take the Eastern game of Baduk as an example, humans predict the next move based on one move. Even if you draw the entire number in your head, the order of thought is completely logical. But the Wizard…
“You mean you ignore cause and effect.”
“yes. It’s not about thinking backwards or from the middle. It’s like taking a picture of the whole thing. To put it simply, if humans were to develop one move at a time…
The leader exhaled deeply.
“Wizards play out the entire game from start to finish.”
Rampa pointed at Wizard.
“It doesn’t matter what movements the students who attack the wizard make or what magic they cast. “The moment change occurs, the entire picture is completed in your head at once.”
Sirone watched the Wizard’s battle.
“Bread! Bread! “Bread!”
The air gun, which can be said to be the basis of magic, was firing wildly at my brother and sister.
“It has no power.”
“yes. We are dealing with students with only the minimum damage that Cheonbeon Lee can inflict. It takes approximately 2,000 hits to defeat one person. Nevertheless, the result was…
14 students fell to the ground with a groaning sound at the same time as the air gun exploded.
“This is what happens.”
“…okay. “Simultaneous suppression is impossible unless the opponent’s mental strength is all set to 1.”
“yes. Being able to achieve this level of coordination means that tens of thousands of winning patterns have appeared in her head. If you only need to achieve the result of victory, you can win even if 200 people fight together. On the condition that he was willing to take a certain amount of damage…
Rampa stopped talking.
This is because it was uncomfortable to say that in theory, it was possible to suppress more than 400 people.
“ha ha ha! Won! The wizard ran around with his arms raised among the students who were shocked by the thought that I had won again.
Then, gritting his teeth, he walked up to the angry female student, bit his tongue, and blew.
“Woooo! Pooh wow! I won. “I won.”
The girl’s eyes widened.
“??????damn!”
But when he saw the seven-year-old’s face, he lost the strength to even get angry and lowered his head.
“Woooo! “Pooh!”
Wizard went to each of the losers in number 2, stuck out his tongue and made fun of them, saying,
“I won. “I’m stronger, Long.”
Sirone said.
“It seems like he’s being particularly mischievous with female students.”
“yes. I tend to follow my older brothers better. There is no malice. It’s just nice to beat someone and show off your strength. Of course, from an adult’s perspective, that is a behavior pattern that should be castrated.”
Amy frowned.
“That’s what I’m saying. It’s a magic school where skills are competed regardless of age. Why are teachers silent? If this is
the case, how miserable will the other students be…
“Hmm, hmm.”
The moment Amy heard the official of the Kingdom of Stang clear his throat, Amy realized.
‘Oh, I see.’
Even if Amy was king, she would not impose any restrictions on the Wizard.
Even if all the students here drop out, it is much more profitable to protect one wizard.
‘6th place in Ivory Tower candidate at just four years old. At that time, Sirone was in 4th place. And three years have passed.’
Rampa said.
“This is what Miss Amy thinks. Regardless of the circumstances of the kingdom, this is a grave matter for humanity. If the Wizard continues to grow at this rate for 10 more years, the world may be able to drive out Heaven’s army and demons and achieve peace. Of course, it is unknown whether those 10 years will be given to us.”
said the leader.
“Even the principal is paying attention because it is classified as the nation’s No. 1 asset and can compete with even the timeless 6th to 4th graders.”
He’s a genius. There are no certified teachers. Above all,
Sirone nodded.
“Maybe it’s natural. “If it’s not to this extent, you won’t be able to deal with Satan.”
In other words, it meant that the price the Ivory Tower would have to pay to take her would be enormous.
‘I understand why the king is being stiff.’
When Sirone turned his head, the official with soft eyes and a smile bowed silently.
‘Once the tour is over, the negotiation table is set up in earnest. ‘Money probably won’t solve it.’
Even if you press down on it with authority, you won’t be able to convince a seven-year-old child.
Sirone continued.
“I don’t think it would be good to neglect the desire to show off. “Right now you’re just doing it for fun, but your mind will be clouded when you realize that winning brings so much more.”
Magic skills are a secondary factor. The necessity of the Wizard was ultimately pure.
Rampa said.
“What Daeseong Oh said makes sense. But who can control that brat? Normally, children look after their parents at that age, but Wizards are different. I have no stomach. The kingdom’s highest potential is already the strongest in humanity. “If you touch it clumsily, it can actually hurt you.”
“So, without making a fuss…
The Wizard’s voice could be heard up to here.
“Teacher, are your brother and sister also wizards? Can I go say hello? yes? yes? yes?”
Sirone’s eyes calmed down as he watched her.
“We will have to provide overwhelming education.”
