Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 206
The Youngest Son of the Magic Family Episode 206
“…Do you really know that?”
Larsen nodded.
“In order to create a new mineral [Popona], special power must be added to the research you have done so far.”
“Special powers? what is that?”
“That is a very special human history.”
Popona’s eyes sparkled. You need strength. So who is this very special person?
“A very special human?”
“okay.”
“Who are you?”
Popona’s voice trembled. The current standoff seemed to have nothing to do with it.
“Kashin Seid.”
“Kashin Seid?”
Karcia turned her head and looked at Larsen.
He’s talking about his son. Larsen, what is that guy thinking? I wanted to ask, but I couldn’t. Karsia had a vague feeling.
There is another being somewhere here.
I didn’t know exactly. There is another being here who is protected by special power. That being is waiting for an opportunity to attack this side.
So I couldn’t move carelessly. Because you have to protect Decatra, who is entrusting everything to you and using the Mind Law.
“Kashin Seid has such special powers?”
Larsen nodded. Popona spoke faster.
“How are you going to prove that?”
“I don’t think I have to prove that.”
Now the momentum is leaning in this direction. Popona knows what she really wants. Cha Seong-min was the one who created the alchemist Popona.
‘Hepaso’s black jar was passed down to me through various gods.’
Among the gods who helped, there was Ate, the god of wisdom. A god of wisdom might have drawn today’s situation.
Larsen’s mind felt clear.
‘Ate, the god of wisdom, today. They must have known we would be here.’
The world order will also lure Larsen here. That’s why they even tried to seal Larsen here. Ate was a friendly god to Larsen and therefore seemed to have made some kind of deal with Hepaso.
‘To avoid being caught by the world order. This is how it was arranged for me.’
There was also a penalty. If you don’t persuade Popona properly, Popona will side with the world order. If that happens, things will probably go as Kaysa Mayton thinks.
‘It was an arrangement where I had to get Popona on my side.’
It became clear.
“Keisa Mayton is not interested in your calling.”
“…why?”
“Kisa Maton is world order and is only interested in establishing world order. She wants to set the world in order and become the creator herself. “That’s not wrong.”
Popona tilted her head.
“Do you think so?”
“of course. Because she is the embodiment of the world order, and it is right for the world order to act that way. It’s the same as if you were only interested in alchemy and lived only for it.”
I made eye contact with Popona.
“You live for alchemy. But what about Kaysa Mayton?”
Popona understood what Larsen was saying.
Kaysa Mayton has a nickname: Kaysa Mayton. Popona has the calling of Popona. When the interests of those callings are aligned, they help each other.
“I don’t know how Kaysa Mayton persuaded you. But I can make one thing clear. I’ll help you complete the black jar. “In the world I created.”
A wedge was driven in.
“Do you think that will be possible in the world created by the new order? In a world where the previous laws do not apply?”
* * *
Popona was confused. The person who held my hand when I first opened my eyes was Kaysa Mayton. I’ll make you dream of a new world. Tell me what you want. I said this. Popona believed that.
‘Kisa doesn’t care about what I want?’
Looking back, it seemed like that.
‘Keisa didn’t promise to complete the [Black Jar].’
In Popona’s mind, the words ‘I’ll make you dream of a new world’ meant ‘I’ll make you a completely black jar.’ Keisa didn’t say that, but Popona took it that way. After listening to Larsen, I knew that was wrong.
Kaysa’s voice was heard. Keisa appeared.
“Popona. “What that guy says is a lie.”
“Then will Keisa complete the [Black Pot]? Will you help me make the unknown mineral [popona]?”
“….”
Popona’s eyes narrowed.
“Keisa can’t lie to me. So you are silent. Still, I don’t hate Keisa. “Caesa has been my friend since I was born.”
“….”
“Still, I think I should check. I’m going to meet Kashin Sayde. “I also want to find out why he has such special powers.”
Popona seemed in good spirits. There was no resentment or hatred towards Keisa. I was just filled with pure curiosity.
Carcia realized that the identity of the strange energy she had felt earlier was that woman (Keisa Mayton). At that time, Decatra opened his eyes.
“You’ve opened your eyes, Decatra.”
“…okay.”
“Do you think you know who it is?”
“Keisa Mayton. Mayton invites you to go.”
Carcia, who did not realize heavenly power as well as Decatra, was a little confused. However, I calmly observed the situation a little longer. And then I realized.
‘The main character here is neither me nor Decatur.’
If this was a stage, the main character was different. That kid, who was once rumored to be a mess, was the star of this stage.
‘Larsen leads, Larsen conducts.’
In fact, it was something I never thought of. I thought I wouldn’t be able to last long in that bloody Mayton family and would die. When I first became friends with Kasin, I was skeptical about the existence of Larsen.
“At first, I thought it was a secret variable raised by Larsen from your side.”
“….”
“But now I see that it’s not just a secret variable.”
Larsen is not just a variable. He is the one who leads the situation.
Looking at Larsen’s words, it seemed as if he had anticipated today’s situation to some extent. It seemed like he knew where Kaysa Mayton was hiding. It seems that Popona even knows how to coax that unknown entity.
Karcia asked.
“Larsen. “What on earth is that guy?”
“You might not believe it, but.”
Decatra paused for a moment.
“It seemed like he was the father of this world.”
“Father of the world? “Your son?”
“okay.”
“Do you think that makes sense now?”
“Why would I lie now?”
Karsia kept her mouth shut. The father of this world. Isn’t this what created this world?
“And it seems that Larsen Maton, the creator of this world, chose Kashin Seid as the main character.”
“My son?”
Karcia laughed.
“It’s just something I can’t figure out.”
“Think about it. “Your son was born with a talent that no one else can have, he must have gained a talent that no one can match, and he must have grown faster than anyone else.”
“….”
“You didn’t think it was just luck, right?”
“….”
“I always thought it was strange whenever I saw Larsen. Since when have you been deceiving me? Why did you act like a fool? Why was no one able to penetrate Larsen’s essence? And at some point I realized.”
This is Larsen’s biggest characteristic.
“Lack of probability.”
“Lack of probability?”
“There is a lack of probability. The same goes for the main character, Kashin Seid. “It seems that a massive lack of probability is a necessary condition for a protagonist.”
The main characters in the novel become stronger. Through a coincidence disguised as coincidence. Through a lot of luck. It’s okay even if it’s somewhat improbable.
Because he’s the main character. In action movies, the main characters run away from bullet fields. The supporting actors are dying. Dealing with dozens of people alone. I don’t get tired either. It didn’t make sense in the first place. It’s okay though. Because he is the main character.
At that time, Keisa opened her mouth.
“Popona. “You can’t escape the Great Forest.”
“why?”
“Because that is order.”
“hmm.”
Popona smoothed her chin.
“Then if I kill Keisa, I can get out?”
As expected, there was no hostility or murderous intent toward Popona. It seemed like an innocent question.
“no. It was set regardless of my death. This was decided when Ate, the god of wisdom, reborn Hepaso as Popona. “I had to go to great lengths to give birth to you, and that’s why these restrictions are in place.”
Keisa also knew. About the existence value of Popona. It seems that he was also aware of the fact that Popona could be either an ally or an enemy.
“Then how can I get out of here and meet Kashin Seid?”
“There are two ways.”
Keisa seemed unable to lie to Popona at all.
“One is to kill everyone here and move with me.”
“What about the other one?”
“The remaining one is to go out with the items you own that have been in contact with the mana outside the Great Forest.”
“I’ve never been outside the Great Forest?”
“The first way is the most convenient and easiest way.”
I glanced at Heira.
“That illegitimate child is a problem, though.”
From the perspective of the world order, the ‘God of the Underworld’ seemed like an illegitimate child. Maybe he thought of it as his own shadow. Heira didn’t really react to those words.
He seemed to think that what he said was not wrong.
Larsen took a step forward.
“Keisa Mayton. “What you said is wrong.”
“What’s wrong?”
“It is said that the first way is the most convenient and easiest way. “That was a lie to Popona.”
Popona looked at Larsen and Keisa in turn.
“Keisa can’t lie to me.”
“It may not have been my intention to lie, but it turned out to be a lie.”
“why?”
“Because I have these.”
I had no idea it would be connected like this. Perhaps, in the underworld of the original work, Kasin may have already met Drayden.
Otherwise, he might have escaped from the Great Forest with Draden. Anyway, thanks to the connection called Drayden, Popona was able to get out of the Great Forest.
‘In the original work, Popona came out of the Great Forest without Keisa, met Kashin, and became colleagues.’
This means that you can easily get out of the forest without Keisa’s help. There were two artifacts that Larsen took out from subspace.
“My [headband] and [poripori bell]?”
“Someone asked me to tell you they were sorry.”
“I’m sorry. “It was my gift.”
Popona laughed.
“Drayden was a good guy. So I allowed them to take it.”
Larsen realized. If Popona had had her way, Drayden’s theft would have been discovered. And Drayden would have died on the spot.
‘This is no coincidence.’
I looked at Popona’s eyes. Only then did Cheonan begin to interpret and show more about Popona.
‘Popona… I didn’t lose Hepaso’s memories!’
At that moment, Kaysa Mayton tried to snatch the headband and bell through the short warp. Larsen couldn’t react. Fortunately, Heira stopped it. Heira’s dagger cut off one of Kaysa Mayton’s fingers.
Larsen continued.
“This is… the arrangement. Popona. no. Hepaso.”
It seemed like a complete deception of the world order.
“Fool me? Popona doesn’t know that.”
Popona did not confirm that fact. Popona walked away, shaking the bell. Before we knew it, Popona had disappeared. It felt like I was going to see Kashin Seid.
Now the remaining people are Decatra Carcia Larsen Heira. And it was Kaysa Mayton who was injured.
Carcia came closer and asked.
“Then me. “Can we just kill your ancestors? Is that the end of everything?”
