Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 142
The youngest son of a magician, episode 142
[Raidione, the god of scheming and trickery, admires your insight.]
Larsen was momentarily speechless.
‘insight?’
In fact, it was closer to an excuse than an insight. I just pieced together words to convince Evian, the Ice Queen. That’s what I guessed, and Raidione recognized it as insight.
‘So does that mean I’m right?’
I guess that has become clear. In the end, it is said that the meeting here was a plan drawn by Raidione, the god of scheming. The meeting with Ralphon was also an artificially created meeting.
[‘Raidione’ grants a special gift to Ralphon.]
[‘Raidione’s mysterious power allows Ralphon to communicate with the people of the southern North Sea.]
Larsen remained silent and focused only on interpretation. Communication with Ralphon became possible.
‘Even in the original work, Ralph had conversations with other people.’
Same with Kashin.
‘So Cassin also showed insight to Raidione?’
In the original, Cassin does not see the name ‘Raidione’. Despite having the Heavenly Eyes, he has never read messages from the gods.
There is a huge hole in probability in the character of Kashin.
‘I’ve never communicated directly with Raidione, but I’ve received help from him.’
That’s why it’s scarier. This means that you continue to receive indirect help without direct communication. As expected, this world seems to be a world for Kashin.
‘Then the reason Kashin was able to grow into a Munchkin protagonist is because the gods are helping him wholeheartedly.’
I knew it from last time, but I was able to experience it more deeply.
It became clear that this world was for Kashin and that the world was flowing for Kashin. Many gods are probably helping Kashin. In many ways. Because the author threw out so many absurd stories, the world gave Kashin the possibility of being a ‘god’.
‘They won’t be able to read the message, but everyone else will be under God’s influence.’
The same goes for Ralphon. Although Ralphon may not be aware of it at all. For a moment, Larsen felt a chill and looked around.
“What are you thinking about for so long?”
“what?”
Larsen was locked in a square ice room. It was cold. Evian slowly walked over and hugged Larsen tightly.
‘suddenly?’
Evian said.
“I will protect you. “In this land of lightning.”
“What is this ice room?”
“We created an igloo to protect Confucius.”
“We could have been sufficiently protected without this.”
“But this method is much safer.”
“Wasn’t it safe before?”
“It was safe, though. It is also true that we did not protect it wholeheartedly.”
Larsen was a little frustrated. I’m grateful for protecting you, but there’s no need to suddenly hug me like this.
[Status: Regrets of the past/New resolutions]
This is because Evian’s appearance showed signs of regretting the past. If a person of Evian’s level were to expose his condition defenselessly, it meant that Evian’s emotional state was that intense.
“I was unable to protect the children I wanted to protect a long time ago.”
“In Badon?”
“yes. Innocent children asked me for help. I could have helped, but it was too late. “The children’s mother was brutally murdered.”
know. Larsen knows everything that happened in Rabadon.
“I vowed never to help anyone after that. I thought no one would protect me. “There is nothing to be sad about when you have no one to protect.”
“….”
It’s not wrong. If there is no one to protect, there is no need to protect and there is no sadness when you cannot protect.
“But I now have someone I want to protect.”
“….”
“I will protect you. Confucius.”
“….”
“And I don’t plan on being sad in the future.”
Because I will protect it perfectly. I felt like I could hear those words.
“I will protect you, Confucius.”
I could feel Evian’s body temperature. Even though it was the Ice Witch of the North Sea, it was quite warm. It was warm, but it was also true that it was burdensome. It was my first time seeing Evian’s eyes, which were always calm, so lively.
‘This… is good, right?’
It was good, but somehow a bit scary.
* * *
A voice was heard. It was a sound coming from outside the igloo. Ralphon seemed to have come to his senses.
“hey!”
Larsen then slightly pushed Evian away.
“Aren’t you going to let me go now?”
Evian let Larsen go. She adjusted her glasses and took a step back. It seemed as if he had realized his own depravity.
“I’m sorry, Confucius. “I was caught up in thoughts of the past and ended up acting on my emotions.”
“It’s nothing to be sorry about. “I stayed still.”
“….”
You’re warm. I didn’t say that. Larsen explained what had just happened. It was said that ‘Raidione, the god of trickery’, was real and that he worked miracles and helped communication to flow.
“This kind of stuff. “Evian, only you should know.”
“of course. “I swear by my mana.”
Evian was sincere. Evian was determined to protect Larsen, and since he had already made up his mind, he would never betray Larsen.
thud! thud!
The igloo boom! thud! It rang.
“Knock knock knock!”
Ralph is knocking on the door, but the whole igloo is screaming! yes! It rang. It felt like an earthquake had occurred.
‘He’s really crazy physically.’
Indeed, he had the physicality of a colleague of the protagonist. Evian frowned slightly and drew a circle with his index finger. A round hole appeared on one side of the igloo.
Ralphon fit into it.
“wow. “Is this a house?”
Ralphon’s height reached 3 meters, and when Ralphon came in, the igloo automatically grew in size.
“There’s no lightning here?”
Ralphon lay down on his stomach.
“I can finally get some sleep now.”
“You’ve been sleeping until now.”
“It’s hot outside.”
“….”
Ralphon started snoring again. It was natural, since I couldn’t eat or drink properly and couldn’t sleep properly for several months. And for Larsen, the situation was understandably disconcerting.
In the meantime, the thunder dragon flew around outside when it was excited and relayed its voice to Larsen.
-master. full.
-master. I’m sleeping!
Then he turned over on his stomach on the floor and started to sleep. A dragon is definitely a being that doesn’t need to sleep. Anyway, the thunder dragon fell into a peaceful sleep.
“Evian. “I also used up a lot of mental energy.”
“All right. “I will protect the law.”
I couldn’t feel more reassured. Larsen used the easy-to-understand mana method and the new Grandel meditation method simultaneously to replenish his mana and fighting power.
About 3 hours passed. Larsen opened his eyes and Ralphon also woke up.
“They are good friends. “They gave me food and found me a home.”
“….”
“Then take me home.”
Ralphon said shamelessly. There was no sense of regret whatsoever.
“I’m sorry, but that’s impossible.”
“why?”
“I don’t know how to cross the North Sea.”
“omg? then?”
“Either come down south with me. Or stay here.”
Ralphon thought seriously for about two seconds.
“Then why don’t you go down?”
Ralphon didn’t seem to have any regrets about not being able to return to his hometown.
“But when are you going? “I hate it here.”
“One year later.”
“A year from now?”
Ralphon’s eyes widened.
“Do I have to stay here for another year?”
“maybe?”
“Nope!”
“Even if I don’t like it, I can’t help it.”
“okay?”
Ralphon looked like he was going to protest, but he was very easily convinced.
“If you can’t help it, you can’t help it.”
Then he smiled brightly, showing all his white teeth. He was the type of person who gave up very quickly.
“good. “Then is there anything I can help you with for a year?”
“Will you help me?”
“uh. “We are colleagues.”
“….”
Larsen was unable to follow the flow of conversation of this character he had created. It was quite difficult because it was a new type of person where common sense conversation did not work. We suddenly became colleagues.
‘But then again, he’s a simple guy who doesn’t betray his colleagues.’
Although he is stupid, he has the personality of never betraying trust once he has made it. But was it this easy to become a colleague? I don’t think that was it. In the original work, Ralphon says this.
[“If you help me find a mate for my black spatula, you will become my comrade.”]
Originally, he became a comrade with these conditions, but this time, Ralphon took the initiative to become a comrade. All they said was that they would feed them, stay with them for a year, and then escape together.
“we. “You know it’s been less than a day since we met, right?”
“Is time important? “Fate is what matters.”
Ralphon is awesome! I laughed.
“I believe in fate. “I crossed the South Sea, which was said to be impossible to cross.”
By this standard, it was the North Sea, and by that side’s standard, it was the South Sea.
“I met you on this island where no one has visited for months. This is fate. “It’s like God’s guidance.”
“Do you believe in God?”
“Otherwise it wouldn’t make sense for me to come over here!”
I don’t know about Raidione, but this simple guy seemed to believe that God was real.
Several days passed. In the meantime, the thunder dragon gradually absorbed the mana of the thunder attribute into its body, and Larsen became passionate about the interpretation of ‘Daealwi’.
It was also fortunate for Larsen that the pilgrimage period was extended by one year.
Because I was able to interpret ‘Daealwi’ more easily. Moreover, there was a capable ice wizard next to him. We also decided to learn the Northan ice magic.
A week had passed since Larsen arrived at Edel Island. Ralphon, who had been spending his days sleeping and waking up repeatedly, said he was bored and went out.
“Ahh! “It stings!”
He said as if he suddenly remembered Ralphon, who went out saying he was bored to death and came back after being struck by lightning.
“right. “I forgot.”
“what?”
“Is there a special door on this island?”
“door?”
Ralphon’s story was something that could not just be ignored.
“okay. door. It was a white door. “I tried to open the door and go in, but the door wouldn’t open.”
“so?”
“So I got angry and tried to destroy it.”
Ralphon raised his black spatula.
“Is this a spatula stronger than anything else?”
know. black spatula. There was a very high probability that that too was a new item.
“I grabbed it and slapped it, but it was fine.”
“….”
Ralphon’s crazy physicality. And I hit the door with my new black spatula and it was fine. Larsen looked at Evian.
“It didn’t happen naturally, right?”
“Natural dungeons also exist in the world. “It is a mysterious field that cannot be understood by human reason.”
“But natural dungeons don’t exist in such an artificial form.”
“That’s right.”
If it had a particularly white door shape, there was a high probability that it was an artificial dungeon. It is also a dungeon that is openly exposed for entry. They didn’t tell me about the artificial dungeon called Decatra. Didn’t he tell me on purpose? Or maybe you didn’t know?
‘It makes no sense not to know.’
What kind of person is Decatra?
I learned about thunder dragons and recommended Edel Island to feed them. Didn’t Decatra know anything about Edel Island?
At least he would have sent his subordinates to explore once. Then there is no way that Ralphon would not have recognized the artificial dungeon gate, which was exposed enough to be found.
‘But there’s no reason to keep it a secret.’
This time, they even added Evian as a special name. It is no exaggeration to say that it was a preferential treatment. But why did you keep quiet about the artificial dungeon? I had a gut feeling that it wouldn’t be a test this time.
“Let’s go first.”
I moved with Evian. As Ralph said, a ‘white door’ was visible. I interpreted it as Cheonan.
I was able to find out the identity of the ‘white door’. It was not just a simple artificial dungeon.
