Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 152
The Magician’s Youngest Son Episode 152
Larsen chuckled.
“why? “Have you at least learned a special technique for anti-demon martial arts?”
“….”
“Hyung, he’s cute because he’s obvious.”
It’s obvious, obvious. It was so obvious that it was cute. Noah, the manager, created a sparring field by crying and eating mustard.
“If I determine that the risk of injury during sparring is too high, I can intervene.”
“There’s no need for that, Noah.”
Evelia came down from the second floor.
“I will mediate.”
Noah felt like he had met his savior. I was anxious a year ago too, but this time the situation was even more serious.
Larsen and Carlton. Both of them have grown a lot and now have enough strength to seriously injure the other person even by mistake. Both of them were Mayton’s blood, and if either of them got hurt, it was obvious that Noah, the manager, would be reprimanded.
In such a situation, the second princess steps forward. For Noah, it was a windfall.
“I am honored that Evelia is interceding.”
“Are you both ready?”
Carlton raised his right hand.
“Carlton. “Do you have something to say?”
“Yes sister. “I’d like to ask Larsen.”
Evelia’s eyes turned to Larsen. Larsen already anticipated what Carlton’s question would be.
“why? “Are you curious about what attribute magic I have?”
“okay. “I heard that your only talent is magic.”
“I gained some momentum.”
Larsen chuckled again. It was an obvious ridicule.
“good. I’ll let you know. Anyway, even if I tell you, it won’t do anything. My secondary attribute is ice. The root is North. “I have learned Northan ice magic up to Circle 4.”
He told me everything. What kind of magic did you learn?
“I have learned… and recently I have even learned the 4th Circle North, an ice magic called Ice Falls. “I showed everything I had.”
Larsen glanced at Noah.
Noah will be recording this entire situation. This recording will be reported to the higher-ups, whether it be to the father or the elders. Larsen decided that it would be of great benefit to him if he could overwhelm Carlton even with all his cards exposed.
Evelia also read Larsen’s intentions.
‘Smart guy. ‘You’re telling me everything on purpose.’
Evelia knows just by looking at her. Carlton can’t beat Larsen. There is a huge gap between the two. Even though Carlton’s circle is one level higher.
‘I completely hid my main talent, magic fighting skills.’
With sparring, I caught two rabbits at once.
Unfortunately, Carlton, the 6th Duke, was so obsessed with his desire to beat Larsen that he did not react in any way. If his younger brother, Larsen, had done this, his older brother, Carlton, should have taught him at least the auxiliary fire attribute magic.
That is the direction pursued by the Mayton family, which values defeat and pride.
‘It’s already Larsen’s victory.’
Evelia smiled. The sparring has begun. Larsen widened the distance.
“I will only use up to the 3rd circle magic.”
Larsen sees it in his eyes. What magic will Carlton use? The flow of mana was read. It was a privilege given by Cheonan.
‘It seems like they’re trying to catch the flag in the pasture.’
I think I will make my vision dizzy with the 1st circle fire attribute magic, [Small Flame], and then immediately use the 5th circle water attribute magic, [Spray].
‘You can just ignore the small flames.’
It’s a trick anyway. Can’t even reach it.
‘And the range of the spray is… up to here.’
Larsen narrowly controlled the distance.
You can see it in Cheonan’s eyes. It was like reading the future. At some point. I could see that there was going to be a splash of water at some point.
‘If I go in here, I’ll activate [Splash].’
I cast a spell with my right hand. It will soon make a splash. Larsen took a step forward. A spray of water rose up.
It swallowed Larsen’s body. The mana of the whirling water surged as if it were devouring Larsen’s body.
Evelia was impressed.
‘We accurately predicted the point where the spray would rise and moved to the point with the weakest force.’
It was a subtle movement, but the original flow of mana itself was a series of elaborate and subtle techniques.
How even the smallest details can change the results. If Larsen had had his way, he could have completely avoided that spray. But it didn’t do that. I hit it on purpose.
Larsen used the 1st circle ice magic, ‘Ice Crystal’.
Magic is the flow of mana. And it is created through a ‘skill’ that artificially regulates mana.
‘Spell’ depends on how well the caster controls mana. And it makes a big difference depending on which formula is calculated and applied at what location and at what timing.
Larsen created a disruption spell in between the mana spell, which raises ‘ice crystals’ and creates a spray of water.
Evelia watched the scene with serious eyes.
‘You put ice crystals in the spray, right?’
The ice crystal itself is not a difficult magic, but it messes up the magic spell of the spray. Difficult magic was being destroyed with easy magic.
‘I don’t think Larsen does much mental calculation.’
It was not implemented through mental calculation.
‘You do that by instinct.’
In fact, it is not instinct, but a special ability called ‘Cheonan’ that is helping. But Evelia couldn’t even figure it out.
Now I was seriously amazed. So far, it was half cuteness and half admiration, but this time it was just admiration.
‘You did that at 15? ‘Only by instinct?’
Doing calculations is possible with effort. Anyone can do it if they take a long time. But not that one. It’s a completely different area. This is an area only geniuses can do.
Although Larsen himself does not seem to be aware of it.
Saaaa-!
The spray disappeared. Carlton was already exhausted, as the spray of water must have consumed a lot of his strength. Larsen said in bewilderment.
“Are you tired already?”
“at all.”
“That’s what happens because you don’t think about futa and only think about giving a big blow.”
Larsen used the 1st circle magic and Carlton used the 5th circle magic. Carlton’s physical expenditure was much greater.
“Besides, it’s not a completed spell. “It’s amazing to see how sloppy the technique is.”
“….”
“why? “Did you think I would be embarrassed when I saw the 5th Circle magic?”
“You’re so brave. “The winner is not yet decided!”
Carlton also grew. I used the 1st circle water attribute magic, ‘Water Arrow’. I found my own distance by using several water arrows.
About 6 meters. I distanced myself from Larsen. Carlton thought he could take a breather. But that was an illusion.
Carlton’s eyes widened.
‘fast.’
The distance became too close before my body could react. 6 meters. That was not a safe distance for Carlton. Larsen’s movements were much faster than those of ordinary wizards.
Even if he does not use magic fighting skills, his natural body itself is basically much better than that of ordinary magicians. In addition, the ‘slowly flowing’ property was added.
4.5 meters.
Entered the streets of Lassen.
[3-Circle Ice Magic. ‘Ice wind’ is used.]
It was not an ordinary ice wind.
[1st circle transcendence magic. Use ‘Interaction’.]
Ice wind. A wind laden with ice crystals blew. A wave wrapped around Carlton’s body.
Carlton’s fingertips and toes froze. It was an ice magic effect. Carlton’s body temporarily stiffened. Meanwhile, Larsen got closer. Once again, I used the 1st circle ice magic ‘Ice Crystal’.
Larsen’s palm touched Carlton’s heart.
[1st circle ice magic. Use ‘Ice Crystal’.]
The distance is close. Larsen’s mana circle rotated furiously. Although it is a 1-circle magic, it benefited from the transcendental magic ‘interaction’. Destructive power is over 3 circles. This is magic that is emitted at maximum power from this distance.
“stop.”
Evelia grabbed Larsen’s wrist.
[1st circle ice magic. ‘Ice Crystal’ was forcibly canceled.]
Although magic was forcibly stopped while being used, mana backflow did not occur. It was thanks to Evelia’s help. Larsen looked at Evelia.
‘As expected of you, sister.’
Even the backflow of mana was completely controlled and the magic was dismantled.
Larsen doesn’t have much of a concept of ‘skill’. This is because, unlike the wizards here, they use magic solely based on instinct.
Although it was used out of instinct, it was no different from other magic. Magic is arithmetic and calculation. It is a series of techniques. By calculating it in reverse order, the magic that formed the form was returned to mana.
“Are you planning to destroy your brother’s mana circle?”
“It was a 1st circle magic, sister.”
“But its destructive power was greater than 3 circles. The more ice magic accumulates, the stronger the damage. If you are already hit by your magic and hit the heart with that magic, your mana circle may be damaged. “For a sparring match, it was an extreme attack.”
Larsen nodded. I took a step back.
“I won’t treat this as a sparring between my brother and I.”
“…what?”
“Because it was a sparring where there was nothing good about winning.”
“What do you mean?”
Carlton gritted his teeth. Carlton knows what that means.
This means that this sparring is not helpful to your career. 6 Like defeating Confucius.
“I’m sure you know what I mean.”
Larsen chuckled. I turned around.
“I wasted the good time I had with my sister.”
* * *
Although Carlton was described as ‘wasted’, Larsen actually did not think so.
‘I tried hard to use attribute magic…’
I used ice crystals continuously and even used ice wind. Concentrated your mind to attack someone. It felt very different from when I used it alone.
‘Practical sparring followed immediately after sparring with my sister.’
Just before. An attempt was made to combine magic and ice magic. That gave Larsen an epiphany.
‘I need to focus more on attribute magic.’
I think it would be a good idea to set an imaginary goal and practice focusing your attacks on that goal.
‘When you first perfectly learn attribute magic. It becomes easier to incorporate it into martial arts.’
I realized that. It was not a concept of adding attribute magic to a magic fighting base. It was closer to the concept of perfectly learning attribute magic and adding magic fighting skills to it. There wasn’t much difference on the surface, but the process was different.
‘I can see the road.’
Learning when sparring with a strong person was different from learning when sparring with a weak person. After fighting against the weak, I felt like I knew everything in detail.
Two days have passed.
The time has come for Decatra to return to the family.
Heira came in carrying a fruit tray. Usually, this kind of work is handled by a maid. Heira is now a shadow. You don’t have to do this. But I came here with fruit.
Larsen said, sitting at his desk.
“It looks like you have something to say.”
“Yes, Confucius.”
“what?”
“Even though we get a one-year grace period, the pilgrimage is precious time. “Even if it’s only for two days.”
“know. Time to grow without anyone’s interference. And valuable time to build your public reputation.”
“That’s right. Fame cannot be bought with money. “It can only be achieved by running physically, and it will become the cornerstone of Confucius’s position.”
“I know.”
“….”
“But those eyes are asking why you’re wasting your time here?”
“….”
Larsen stood up.
“You’ve arrived just in time. “Let’s go see your father.”
“Are you talking about the head of the family?”
“okay.”
I have something to report about the thunder dragon. But other than that, I have one more thing to tell you. There was something that needed to be done faster than Evelia’s ‘request’.
“I’m trying to enter the lion’s forest.”
“Lion’s Forest… you mean?”
Heira, who usually doesn’t change her expression much, opened her eyes wide.
“Do you know what kind of place that is?”
“know. A forest of monsters managed by Mayton. Successive generations have collected some of the crystals from the center of the forest.”
The first Confucius is now missing. And the second princess, Evelia, also succeeded in it. They were 16 years old when they succeeded.
Larsen, 15, decided to give it a try.
