Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 148

Magic Master’s Youngest Son Episode 148

“I want to ask you something, Larsen Mayton.”

Larsen corrected his posture. Because the current opponent was not the warm Evelia, but Mayton’s eldest daughter.

“You can ask me any time you want. “Please speak.”

“Are the contents of this newsletter true?”

Evelia took out newsletters from subspace. Larsen received the newsletter and looked through its contents.

-The disappearance of drug lord Henker.

-What is the true identity of the 7th Duke of Mayton?

-A collaboration between the Mayton family and the Sayid family. The fall of the ‘Northern Great Basin’!

Most of the content focused on Henker’s disappearance or death.

“Did you kill the drug lord?”

“….”

Larsen thought for a moment. The person named Henker is now dead. Because Phaser will never operate under the name Henker again.

“I didn’t kill him, but he died.”

“If you didn’t kill him, did Kashin Seid kill him?”

“Not even that.”

Evelia’s eyebrows twitched.

“Then who killed him?”

“Henker killed himself.”

It was difficult for Larsen to understand why Evelia was showing this attitude. What does this have to do with Henker’s death?

“I met Henker a long time ago.”

“…yes.”

“Henker was a difficult being to kill even with my abilities.”

“….”

“But I asked because I didn’t understand that you came forward and gave Henker the iron fist of judgment.”

Evelia’s attitude softened a little.

“Maton hates lies. “Living falsely and cowardly is worse than dying.”

“I know.”

In fact, Mayton is not a family that hates lies and only pursues justice. Creator Cha Seong-min knows this very well.

The judgment that ‘a family hates lies’ is made by the character Evelia. Evelia truly thinks so. For her, the Mayton family is the most important and noble value.

“Did you decide that I bribed the newsletter reporters to publish this false publicity?”

“Because I thought this was impossible otherwise.”

Larsen nodded.

“Do you think I would have carried out something so impossible otherwise? “Is it obvious like that?”

“….”

Evelia was momentarily speechless.

“I’m sorry. “I underestimated you so much.”

“I think you underestimated me. “If I have to deceive you, I will deceive you properly.”

“I hope that day never comes. “When the truth comes out, I will have to punish you severely.”

“If I don’t get caught, you won’t have to punish me.”

Evelia’s eyebrows twitched once again. Larsen knows, too. What does Evelia want to hear? ‘I have no intention of deceiving you. ‘It’s never happened before and it never will again.’ You want to hear things like this.

Those words might have made Evelia feel better right away, but Larsen didn’t say anything like that.

“Of course, I have no intention of deceiving you. But there are times when you have to cheat. When I had to tell a lie to my sister, regardless of my intention. I don’t think that day will ever come in my lifetime. So I don’t dare make any promises here. “I’m more afraid of disappointing my sister a lot in the future than disappointing her a little now.”

“….”

Evelia looked at Larsen for a while and then slumped her shoulders.

“You speak well, little brother.”

Now he is my younger brother. Larsen also relaxed a little.

“Would you mind speaking well, sister?”

“I was honestly worried.”

“What concerns?”

“You started out far behind your other brothers.”

That is an undeniable fact. Originally, the youngest child was at the greatest disadvantage in the succession competition. Although I was born as the youngest child, I lived as a motherfucker for nearly 10 years. In the meantime, it has almost disappeared from the succession structure.

“So I figured you might be impatient.”

“You decided that you were blinded by impatience and bribed the newsletter reporters.”

“I thought that might be the case. “I thought it would have been an even bigger problem if Kashin had been there.”

Wouldn’t the Mayton family’s prestige be completely destroyed? If only Kashin had been present during the process of Larsen Maton building his reputation by bribing reporters.

“When humans are blinded by greed, they end up doing things they wouldn’t normally do.”

Larsen continued to look through the newsletters. I felt like I could understand why Evelia had such concerns.

“You might think so.”

Many newsletters focused on Larsen Mayton. Kashin Seid was a nobleman of the famous Seid family, so even so, Larsen’s activities in the Northern Great Basin were quite unusual. It is difficult for someone who is good to get noticed if they do a little better.

-7th prince of the Mayton family. Establish a new status.

Just reading the text made my whole body itch and there were a lot of embarrassing modifiers attached. The content was mostly similar.

Mayton’s youngest son, Confucius, who was thought to be a fool, was actually hiding tremendous abilities. He treated drug lord Henker like a child and had an outstanding ability to manipulate situations to suit his taste. It was roughly like this.

Besides those things, the second most common thing was about Larsen Mayton’s appearance.

“Some even say that you are not only handsome but beautiful.”

“There are no pictures of me.”

“Who would dare to infringe on the portrait rights of Mayton’s relatives?”

The newsletter was filled with content that almost praised Larsen, but Larsen’s face was nowhere to be seen.

“And as time went by, your interest in me gradually waned.”

I checked the dates. When we escaped from the Northern Great Basin, newspapers were busy reporting the incident, but it faded as time went by.

It was a natural thing. Because Larsen spent a year on Edel Island. Since he had not been seen publicly for a year, interest naturally disappeared.

“It was a bit of a waste since you had to build your reputation as quickly as possible.”

“I don’t think so.”

“why?”

“Reputation with solid substance will be beneficial to me as a candidate for successor, but reputation without substance is just a bubble.”

Evelia’s eyes narrowed. I covered my mouth with my hand and laughed.

“You have a good attitude, but do you have substance now?”

“As you may have guessed, I have completed the 4th circle.”

“hmm. “Not bad.”

Circle 4 at age 15. This is a level that other wizards, except Mayton, have difficulty dreaming of. This is because magic has a slow conversion rate and has the characteristic of growing in steps.

‘Is that the only reaction?’

hmm. Not bad. There was only a moderate reaction. Larsen was taken aback by the fact that this was Evelia’s sincerity.

‘Usually, when you’re 15, you get praised just for making 3 circles.’

That’s true if it’s a different family. Unfortunately, this was Mayton Street. A place full of magical geniuses. If you try to demonstrate your genius in a place where only geniuses gather, it will be a daily occurrence anyway.

“I thought you would come visit me at least once before you left for Ethel Island.”

“Your sister?”

“okay. “Didn’t you say you would give me flowers as a gift?”

I also remembered Larsen.

-I will go to the garden later and give you flowers as a gift. The blue tulips there are very pretty.

That night. Evelia received a blue tulip as a gift from Larsen.

Evelia put blue tulips in a vase and placed them by the window. The blue tulips you see when you open your eyes in the morning. And the sunlight coming through the bars always warmed her heart.

“A lot of time has passed and the flower has withered.”

No matter how much care you put into them and how much you change the water every day, the flowers wither. That is nature’s providence.

Evelia picked new tulips and put them in a vase. But I didn’t feel the same way as before. It didn’t feel as pretty as before.

“I found out.”

“What?”

“The fact that the flowers given as a gift are more beautiful.”

Larsen burst out laughing. This seems like a threat to get me to give flowers. But the threat wasn’t that bad.

“I am the flower. “I will give you a gift.”

“Then I’ll treat you to dinner in return.”

* * *

Larsen had dinner with Evelia. Grilled lamb ribs with various vegetables were the main menu, and the meal ended with a dessert of pineapple and blueberries.

Evelia wiped her mouth with a napkin.

“It’s nice to eat together.”

“When I come home, we sometimes eat together.”

Evelia smiled. I thought this guy was really amazing. I think it was probably from then on. This is when this guy started to catch my eye.

-sister. It’s been a while since you’ve been here. Would you like to talk to me?

-Not like that. I was a little curious.

-How was the past year for you? Have you eaten today?

-If you have time, would you like to eat together?

It wasn’t a big deal, but from then on Larsen caught my eye. It was the same today. There was nothing particularly important to say. Nevertheless, I felt that the meal time was rich.

“okay. And I’d like to give you some help.”

“I am currently on a pilgrimage, so it is difficult for me to receive help from my relatives.”

“Then I can just get help.”

“sister…?”

As the eldest daughter of the Mayton family, Evelia has many things to deal with. He said he would hand over one of them.

“I’m busy with so much work. My time is limited and there is so much to get done. “I wish you could help me.”

“….”

It was nice to ask for help, but this was Evelia giving Larsen a chance. Evelia’s request to Larsen was to investigate a special space called the ‘Donkey Saint’s Stable’. Larsen already knows about the ‘Donkey Saint’s Stable’.

‘The donkey saint’s stable.’

Set by Cha Seong-min. The main setting of the novel was ‘Seyid Street’. Therefore, the Mayton family’s proportion was not extremely high. However, there were some parts that had a high significance for the Mayton family, and one of them was the ‘Donkey Saint’s Stable’.

“I have a half-finished map. “It won’t be difficult if we proceed based on this.”

The donkey saint’s stable.

The Mayton family’s exploration team will obtain clues to open the ‘Donkey Saint’s Treasure Trove’ here. In the ‘Donkey Saint’s Treasure House’, the Mayton family acquired various treasures, and these treasures were set to be of great help in the future war against the Seid family.

“Have you been here?”

“I’ve been there. “I didn’t have time, so I couldn’t look around for long.”

“I think you have a general idea of what kind of place this is.”

“okay. That’s the primary base. “There’s probably a clue that leads to the second part.”

Larsen realized.

‘You’re saying it’s probably, but you’re confident.’

This was an opportunity for Larsen himself. Pass the first base well and go to the second base. There are definitely things that will be of great help in the second round. Evelia seemed to be well aware of that fact.

Larsen answered shamelessly.

“Sister’s request. “I will listen.”

“thank you.”

Evelia liked Larsen’s shamelessness.

“When are you going to leave?”

“two days later. “I plan to report about the Thunder Dragon to my father and then set off.”

At that time, Evelia’s body flinched.

“Thunderdragon?”

“yes. “I thought you knew too.”

I thought that Evelia would have already felt the thunder dragon’s energy and would already know of the thunder dragon’s existence. But that didn’t seem to be the case.

“Is the Thunder Dragon in the Mayton family?”

“yes. That’s right. It is located within the Maple Annex. “He’s probably sleeping now.”

Evelia stood up from her seat.

“Let’s go.”

“Why are you doing that?”

“I need to check something.”

“…yes. “I will guide you.”

We walked together. Evelia’s steps were much faster than usual. It was a little strange.
