Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 27
The Youngest Son of the Magic Family Episode 27
I stood in front of the door of the ‘Banquet Hall of the Beginning’ where the 10th anniversary ceremony was held.
A huge door heavily engraved with magic spells.
‘What does all that mean?’
A list of letters whose meaning you have no idea what they are saying. In some ways, that thing that just looks like a graffiti is the famous Manasik of Schopenharg’s 17th root. It is a basic technique memorized by magicians who eliminate the 17 weak roots obtained through it and combine the remaining mana roots in an appropriate way to create the magic effect they want.
Of course, Larsen couldn’t memorize it.
There were only things I couldn’t understand, from the calculus symbols I learned in high school to the conversion formulas I couldn’t understand.
When Larsen arrived at the door, it opened of its own accord. It was a sliding door, not a door that opened back and forth. It feels close to a modern automatic door. What’s surprising is that there is no energy source connected to this.
‘A mana-sensitive automatic door that develops itself by utilizing the surrounding mana.’
This can truly be said to be the end of civilization in the current era of magic. Although it is theoretically possible to implement it, I know that it costs a huge amount of money to actually implement it. Because it has to generate energy on its own without a power transmission source.
‘The reason why this was installed here…’
Larsen knows well. The reason why an automatic door with such an astronomical installation cost was installed here.
‘To show off the power of the Mayton family.’
Even just one small door is like this. There wasn’t much to see in the ‘Maple Annex’, which could be considered a place of exile, but the main building was different. As it is a place visited by many of the world’s most famous people, there were plenty of elements everywhere to show off the power and potential of the Mayton family.
Inside the room, there was a large rectangular dining table. A wooden dining table with a strong smell of phytoncide. Larsen used Cheonan to interpret the table.
[This is a table with the ‘Release Magic’ effect permanently applied.]
Release Magic. It’s just magic that relaxes the mind and body. There is no effect. Larsen could not help but be inwardly amazed.
‘You really are the ultimate money maker.’
No matter what, the price of magic items containing the words ‘non-powered’ and ‘permanent’ is beyond imagination. Among luxury goods, the most expensive luxury goods are those that contain one of those two words.
I realized again that it was a titanium spoon that surpassed a gold spoon.
There was no one in the ‘Banquet Hall of the Beginning’. Only Larsen. And there is only Heira, the maid who serves Larsen.
“Where is my seat?”
“Confucius’ seat is over there, facing the head of the family.”
A long rectangular dining table. The head of the family, Decatra, sits at the head of the table. First Mother and Second Mother on the left side of Decatra. And the third mother sits down.
Across from him, the children of the matriarch Decatra sit in order from first to sixth.
The first one is vacant as it has been a long time since I left for Jeokrim. In addition to one vacant seat, there were seats from second to sixth available.
“What about my mother?”
“I understand that Soso was not invited.”
“As expected.”
I understand. First mother. Second mother. Third mother. They all come from prestigious families. They don’t like each other, but they still respect each other.
‘Not my mother.’
However, Larsen’s mother was a maid. To protect Larsen’s mother, his father, Decatra, deliberately did not invite her.
Grumbling,
I pulled out the chair and sat down. The dining table was unnecessarily large, and the chairs were also very large. Even when Larsen, who had grown to be in his mid-teens, sat down, his feet did not touch the ground.
Some time has passed.
First in came sixth Carlton Mayton.
“You… really Larsen?”
Larsen grinned.
“uh. brother. hi? “Is the place where you got hit any good?”
“….”
Carlton couldn’t believe it. Only about a month has passed. At that time, the pig was nowhere to be seen, and suddenly a handsome nobleman was sitting there. My younger brother sat down and greeted me, but I wasn’t even angry. The change was so spectacular.
“The rumors were true.”
“What rumor?”
“Rumors that your face has changed.”
“I went on a diet.”
Carlton glared at Larsen. The memory of being hit back then came back to me.
‘That bastard.’
I don’t even remember how I was treated back then. I was so careless back then. In the past, Larsen was just a punching bag to be beaten. But the punching bag suddenly moved and hit him. So I wasn’t able to defend myself properly and was attacked by that guy.
Larsen read that expression.
“If you think you got caught off guard, you can always try again.”
“It was planned to happen soon.”
“Instead, it will hurt a little more. Since then. “My skills have improved a lot.”
“Because magic skills grow quickly in the beginning.”
However, its limitations are very clear. Although you may achieve something in the beginning, you won’t get far. This means that even if you fly fast, you cannot fly high.
“soon.”
Carlton bit his lip slightly.
“I will trample you. bug.”
Carlton was confident. I was extremely anxious for a month. The fact that I fainted after being beaten by my son-of-a-kind brother was so shameful that I couldn’t bear it. So I also studied martial arts. If I were to compete again, I was confident that I would not lose.
Larsen got up and approached Carlton. Carlton flinched. He whispered into Carlton’s ear.
“If you can, try as much as you can.”
Larsen was relaxed. I feel it. The opponent’s momentum. 6 Confucius is no match for himself.
Larsen walked past Carlton and sat back down in his chair. Then he sat down on a chair and waited for others to come in. I glanced back at the sixth.
‘okay. ‘That’s better than being scared.’
Still, I guess Maton is Maton. Even though I was beaten like that and fainted, I didn’t lose my strength at all. Rather, it seems that he is working hard using the shame of that time as his driving force.
Next was the 3rd princess Persia.
“oh. Our cutie youngest. “You came quickly.”
The 3rd princess didn’t even look at the 6th princess. 6 Prince Carlton had to feel a strange sense of defeat there.
“Are you playing well with the toy you took back then?”
“yes. “He was good at playing with fire.”
“So I was going to take you with me. “It’s a shame.”
“A bet is a bet.”
Persha laughed. I sat down. 6 Prince Carlton had to feel strange.
‘Did the third sister and that piece of trash make a bet?’
I inferred from the conversation,
‘That idiot even won that bet?’
That doesn’t make sense. No matter what the bet is, the youngest can never beat the third. How on earth can I defeat a woman who has already entered the ranks of ‘grand wizards’?
‘Nonsense!’
This is ridiculous. My pride was hurt. Being able to talk like that with my Persian sister. It was something Carlton had never imagined.
While Carlton was so shocked, another person came in. Larsen has golden hair and golden eyes. And then I looked at the woman wearing a pure white robe.
‘The last mage. Evelia.’
Mayton’s second child.
He is a wizard known to have surpassed his eldest son, who is missing and whose accomplishments are unknown. He was also a very strong mage to be the next head of the family.
‘A character who has a gentle disposition but can do anything for the glory of the family.’
Like Princess Persha, she has 7 circles and her main attribute is light. Ironically, the secondary attribute is darkness.
The ‘last mage’ who deals with light and darkness.
He has the strongest ability among his brothers and is the person closest to becoming the head of the family, but he is eventually beheaded by the main character, Kashin.
‘Another irony is the main character Kashin’s first love.’
Right next to the first vacancy. Evelia, who was sitting in the second seat, spoke.
“The youngest has changed a lot.”
“I understand that you mean well, sister.”
“okay.”
Larsen answered calmly, but his inner feelings were anything but calm. As the second and third sisters sat, it felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on their chests.
I felt intimidated even though I wasn’t exuding lethal force. The existence itself felt huge. This was the aura of the person itself. Larsen, who has ‘Cheonan’, feels that momentum even more sensitively.
‘I’m going crazy.’
Larsen realized. When I only looked at the third child, Persia, I was a little confused, but when I looked at the second child, Evelia, it became completely clear.
‘Why are you just pretending to be a person?’
That’s not enough.
‘Thinking that I would just do something above average… was the height of arrogance.’
I can feel it just by looking at it. They are people who have reached such a high level that they cannot even touch it.
‘Even if I climb up with all my strength… I wonder if I should go halfway or not.’
Anyway, the sixth one has already been eliminated. The sixth appears a couple of times in the novel and then does not appear again. He is a supporting character whose death is not even established. This means that it did not have that much importance.
‘I don’t know, but I’ll probably die or be kicked out around the same time as when I was purged.’
If it stays that way.
‘You have to do your best.’
If you go into it with a complacent mindset of ‘let’s just go above the middle’, you will end up with no bones in your head. If you want to be a human being among those geniuses, you really have to do your best. Only then could he finally act like a human being.
I finally realized that. Today will be the starting point. My heart became much heavier. I was only trying to get to the middle, but it seems like I would have to work really hard to even just get to the middle. In this terrifyingly talented family.
Not long after, Decatra also came in. All blood relatives except Soso, who can be said to be Decatra’s fourth wife.
Decatra.
three wives.
six children.
A total of 11 people gathered in one place.
Decatra opened his mouth.
“The youngest turned ten years old. Congratulations.”
He gives his well-wishes with an expressionless face that doesn’t seem to be congratulating him at all. That was the end of the celebration. Evelia slowly stood up.
“According to my father’s orders, I returned after destroying the evil spirits that were coming out of the ‘Fountain of Darkness and Chaos.’”
The 10-year diet is not just a ritual of just eating and leaving. Larsen knew that well.
‘A place to show what my older brothers and sisters do, what missions they perform, and what achievements they are making.’
Balrog is a monster created by Larsen. This is a high-ranking demon type monster that often appears in the fantasy world.
‘But you didn’t include the evil spirit setting?’
Balrog, an evil spirit?
‘It must be stronger than a normal Balrog, right?’
So, Evelia would have moved it herself. As a famous family that rules the world, the magic family has an obligation to step forward even in such dangerous matters. For the sake of world security and the reputation of a prestigious family.
4 Prince Seron also stood up and spoke slowly.
“The northern necromancer Karen has been captured alive and imprisoned in the ‘Devil’s Coffin.’ “The 20 or so necromancers who followed Karen were all killed.”
“What about the loss of the main family?”
“I was the only one who participated in the subjugation of the corpse wizard.”
In other words, he single-handedly killed about 20 necromancers and captured their leader, Karen, alive.
“Good job.”
“thank you.”
Persha also said:
“I brought you the ‘Wings of Sylphia’ that the Forsaken Temple possessed.”
At that moment, Larsen saw the madness flowing from Persha’s eyes.
The Persians robbed the ‘Abandoned Temple’ of the sacred item ‘Sylphia’s Wings’ that was protecting the temple. ‘Sylphia’s Wings’ is a new item that significantly increases the ‘wind attribute affinity’ of wind-type wizards. 30 priests and 7 monks who guarded ‘Sylphia’s Wings’. And 17 swordsmen protecting them died.
Decatra nodded again.
“It must have been an example for the temple. “What is the Holy Empire’s reaction?”
“There has been no announcement yet. “I think an official letter will come out soon.”
“Anyway, all they can do is demand an apology.”
“What should I do?”
“Ignore it.”
Larsen trembled without even realizing it.
‘Could it be that the Holy Empire refers to Hollen?’
Aside from the world’s three most famous families, it is not a famous family, but is another force that dominates the world. It seems to refer to the Holy Empire Hollen. In other words, it seems that the Persians invaded the temple under the Holy Empire’s Hollen and took away ‘Sylphia’s wings’.
‘I knew there was no way there would be war.’
It’s a sign of confidence. I don’t know what happened in the meantime, but it seems that someone from the ‘Abandoned Temple’ or the Holy Empire did something that was harmful to the Mayton family, and Decatra set an example. No matter how you think about it, this is a crazy family.
‘You have to be independent.’
You must act as a person in this family and become independent. After announcing the missions and achievements he had completed, big and small, up to the sixth time, the long-awaited highlight arrived.
Decatra said.
“Come in.”
The door opened. One of Decatra’s confidants. A middle-aged man with a large sword wound across the middle of his face. It was ‘Senkan’.
‘crazy.’
That Senkan also had an enormous presence. It feels like this ‘banquet hall’ is filled with several mountains. They are all monsters. It feels like all the monsters in the world have gathered here. It was hard to breathe.
Senkan came carrying a small wooden box. Inside were several scrolls. Senkan stood in front of Rasen.
Then Decatra said:
“Choose.”
Select one of those scrolls and receive the ‘Body Strengthening Technique’. That’s the highlight of the decade. Here, the head of the family, Decatra, is in charge of performing the ‘body enhancement technique’.
The colors of the scrolls were all different.
Red.
Beige.
silver.
Dark brown.
yellow.
Black color.
White.
7 scrolls.
‘But…’
Larsen began to see ‘something invisible’ in his eyes. Something new that wasn’t visible to the naked eye. ‘Cheonan’ read something new. In addition to the seven scrolls, an invisible ‘intangible scroll’ was floating in the air. It was not a scroll with substance.
‘The mana waves flowing from the seven scrolls are gathered together.’
They were generating intangible mana in the shape of a ‘scroll’.
‘I see something in the form of a scroll made of mana.’
My heart started pounding. I saw something that shouldn’t have been visible. It felt like it was pulling Larsen strongly.
‘What… is that?’
Decatra’s voice was heard.
“I told you to choose.”
