Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 32
The Youngest Son of the Magic Family Episode 32
[Millennium herb contains a small amount of an unknown substance called ‘ether’. This reacts with ‘Melia’, which can be said to be a deadly poison, and expands.]
Cheonan is an interpretation of the world. And he came up with an interpretation of the body. If it weren’t for the sacral retardation, my body would have exploded.
[‘Ether’ and ‘Melia’ react.]
Then a voice was heard.
[Uh- I’m drunk-!]
Although I couldn’t see it, I had an image in my mind of the ‘Transcendence Holy Grail’ staggering from side to side.
[Ugh- I feel nauseous. I’m going to throw up a bit.]
[Woo waeeeeek!]
I could see it through Cheonan. As if observing as a third party. The deadly poison ‘Melia’ spewed out from within the heart. Melia was not the original Melia itself, but Melia that had been purified, so to speak, through the filter of the ‘Holy Grail of Transcendence’.
Larsen could feel it.
‘My heart… swells.’
My heart swelled. Not only my heart but also my chest swelled. Heyra saw that too.
‘What is this…!’
This is a phenomenon I have never seen before. It existed in theory. A phenomenon in which the heart explodes when mana is absorbed or grown too quickly. Although it clearly exists in theory, it is a rare phenomenon in modern times.
‘Could it be that mana expands?’
In modern times, Manasimbeop has become very stable.
Unless a ‘very large variable’ occurs while using the Mana Sim method, mana expansion will not occur in most cases.
In order to absorb mana quickly enough to cause mana expansion, a ‘new attack’ level of deep energy is required. However, a person who can learn mana and deep attack at the level of ‘new attack’ is very likely to come from a famous family.
In the case of people from famous families, risks such as ‘mana expansion’ are thoroughly managed.
‘Mana expansion is correct.’
see.
‘The mana of the heart swirls as if it will explode.’
Heyra is not a wizard. I know how to kill, but I don’t know how to save. So I couldn’t think of an appropriate way to deal with it.
‘What should I do?’
7 Confucius must be protected. Commanded as a shadow. And I made a promise to Larsen. I decided to protect Larsen until he became strong enough. Now that she has become a shadow, she has decided to protect Larsen.
But now I don’t know the proper way. There is only one method that comes to mind right now. All I can do is put that expanding mana into my body and die instead.
‘At the last moment, that method is also kept in mind.’
As Heira was thinking like that, Larsen’s eyes continued to show the interpreted settings.
[When ‘ether’ and ‘Melia’ react, it has the property of rapidly expanding.] [Only
those who possess ‘composite mana’, called ‘mana of transcendent nature’, can control its energy.]
Larsen I closed my eyes. Heira will prevent most external dangers. For now, I had to focus on the flow within this body. I don’t know what kind of crisis keeps coming back like this. I think it would be better to just live as a fool and not be in danger of dying.
‘The heart is expanding.’
If you don’t control this properly, your heart will explode.
‘If you have transcendent mana, it is possible to seal it to some extent.’
These manas can be bound within the heart. The ‘easy-to-understand manasimbeop’ has been brought to the forefront. But it was painful.
My heart felt like it was going to explode. It feels like a large rock has been forced into my chest instead of my heart. I felt like my ribs were going to break.
Damn it!
In fact, Larsen’s ribs were starting to crack.
[However, even those with ‘transcendent mana’ cannot perfectly control the reaction expansion of ‘ether’ and ‘melia’. This is just one necessary condition.]
Another condition was needed.
[If you are not blessed with the body of a master of martial arts, you will not be able to be completely free from the expansion.]
Not free from the expansion? Then it means you will die.
[Or only those with very special bodies can withstand the expansion. For example, ‘sacral retardation.’]
Larsen’s eyes widened.
‘Sacral retardation!’
He has a sacral body. No one in the novel knows it, but Larsen knows it.
‘If it stays the same as the settings, I can endure it.’
It is a body with inexplicably strong power. He has that kind of body. I saw hope.
‘There is a possibility.’
I feel like I’m going crazy because this extremely dangerous phenomenon keeps pouring in, but I don’t have time to go crazy right now.
We must resolve this crisis somehow. The swelling heart was covered with ‘transcendence mana’.
[Wow. I finally feel better now. brother! Just trust me!]
That’s where the ‘Holy Grail of Transcendence’ started to help. The ‘Holy Grail of Transcendence’ absorbed the soaring mana.
[But my brother’s ability helps me a lot!] The
‘brother’s ability’ that Seonggrail was referring to meant ‘an easy-to-understand method of Manasim’. In fact, Larsen’s ability to control the mana in his body while concentrating means using the ‘easy-to-understand mana mind method’.
[I will help too.]
The Holy Grail continued to absorb mana. The Holy Grail is one with the heart and not another. Although they form one unit, their storage capacities are separate. It was a truly beneficial opportunity.
When Heira saw this, a strange thing appeared in her eyes.
‘My breasts were swollen…’
They were so swollen that they felt like they would burst, but they are returning to their original state.
‘Mana expansion had already begun.’
The mana expansion that has already begun cannot be stopped by any means. This is only possible with the help of archmages of at least the 7th circle. It was an impossible situation, both temporally and physically.
‘But I stopped it. Voluntarily.’
In no time, Larsen’s heart returned to its original state.
Grumble!
The flame burned.
The transcendental mana reacted with the air and created a flame.
‘Be a flame… but not a flame.’
Heira felt like a ‘spark’, but it wasn’t really a spark. There was no shape. I just vaguely felt that a ‘flame was burning’.
All of Larsen’s clothes burned and disappeared.
‘A formless flame. ‘I think I heard it somewhere.’
A new form of mana reaction that feels like a flame but has no shape.
‘I need to find out more.’
The transformation of the Seven Confucius began a month ago. I know this well because I watched it from the side. The change was surprising at first. Honestly, I couldn’t believe it. But now something even more surprising is happening.
‘how…?’
Larsen’s condition was known.
‘Suddenly it became the second circle, didn’t it?’
That was a phenomenon that was so far removed from common sense.
2nd circle at age 10? At least in Heira’s common sense, this is something that cannot happen. It is normal for the body to not be able to withstand it.
The body and heart of a 10-year-old wizard cannot handle 2 circles. That is orthodoxy and common sense established since ancient times. But it was broken.
‘I’m not feeling wrong.’
Obvious. It is visible through the eyes of assassin Heira. The ‘two rings’ engraved on Larsen’s heart.
Heira just stared at Larsen without realizing it.
“Are you just going to stare?”
“sorry.”
“Give me your clothes.”
“I’ll bring it to you right away.”
Heira approached the closet. As befits the world that Cha Seong-min roughly set up, Larsen’s room had a modern wardrobe, and there were quite a few modern clothes in it. Heira took out a pair of sweatpants that were comfortable to wear.
Heira suppressed her surprised emotions as much as she could.
“Congratulations.”
“Can you see it in Heira’s eyes too?”
“yes. “You have completed the second circle.”
“uh. “I really almost died.”
“Mana expansion occurred. Confucius took care of it himself.”
“It’s pretty amazing, right?”
“no. “I think it’s a natural result since you were born with the blessed heart and mana of the Mayton family.”
Heira’s hand, which handed over the clothes with an expressionless face, trembled very slightly. Honestly, I was incredibly surprised. This was a phenomenon that Heira had never seen before.
Larsen also saw Heira’s hands shaking.
‘If the hands of someone as powerful as Heira are shaking, it means they are very surprised.’
I can’t help but be surprised. Larsen thinks so too.
Ether contained in prickly pear.
Venomous Melia.
Mana of the transcendent attribute.
Sacral retardation.
Easy-to-understand manasim method.
Transcendence Holy Grail.
Six conditions came together to produce this result. Each condition is one that cannot be experienced under normal circumstances. Coincidence, coincidence, and coincidence overlapped to give birth to a strange coincidence. Frankly, Larsen himself is shocked.
‘This is at the level of a protagonist…?’
Circle 2 at the age of 10. Isn’t it almost safe to say that he is the main character? It feels as if Cha Seong-min himself has become the main character in the novel.
‘The protagonist level is definitely difficult. not good.’
Definitely crisis and adversity at the protagonist level. And Giyeon comes along. It seems that crisis and opportunity always coexist.
Larsen said.
“My basic attribute is magic fighting. “It’s something you’re born with.”
“yes. That’s right.”
“I guess that’s why the initial growth was rapid overall.”
“Don’t be complacent.”
“That’s strict.”
Larsen chuckled. Now, Heira has a tremendous sense of duty and a sense of duty to ‘raise Larsen well’. That’s why I think they’re trying to be more strict. That’s not a bad thing from Larsen’s perspective.
“Hey. “Do you want to do that with me like last time?”
It became circle 2. There’s something to find out.
“What do you mean?”
“Mock Battle.”
“If you want, I’m willing.”
“Don’t use poison this time.”
“All right.”
Larsen and Heira, who joined the second circle at the age of 10, headed to the ‘Leaf Annex’, a training annex.
* * *
‘Noah’, the manager of the Leaf Annex, greeted.
“7 Confucius. hello? Come on…”
I flinch. My body trembled.
‘what?’
I was told that the body strengthening technique had failed.
‘I heard you failed?’
However, two rings are felt in the 7th Prince who suddenly appears.
‘Circle 2?’
I rubbed my eyes.
‘Is it really Circle 2?’
It was definitely Circle 1 a month ago, right? And I saw that Heira, who was a maid, was praying differently than before.
‘It smells like an assassin…’
I was sure there.
‘Hobeop J.ple said that. There’s something big planned.’
The 7th Confucius was not just a foolish successor candidate. I remembered Jayple saying that some force consisting of at least an elder level or higher was drawing a ‘big picture’ with the 7 Confucius. Now that I look at it, it seems certain.
‘A phenomenon that is generally impossible.’
2 circles at 10 years old is impossible. Even if that were possible, lifespan would be greatly shortened. 7 Confucius’ body will explode before he turns 20. Doesn’t Confucius 7 know that? You probably know. But he is so carefree.
‘A big plan that I don’t know about. There is something secret.’
Noah decided to erase all bad memories about the 7th Prince.
[Is it human to only bend your back 82 degrees?]
I deleted all those memories. It’s better not to remember. 7 Confucius keeps the ‘Secret of the Mayton Family’. The closer you get to that secret, the more dangerous it becomes. I smelled something really dangerous.
‘Let’s not dig into it. Let’s pretend we don’t know.’
So I just pretended not to notice.
“How may I help you?”
“I’m going to have a fight with my shadow.”
The maid has suddenly been upgraded to a shadow. Noah decided not to pretend to know any more. So I answered right away.
“All right. “Can we set it up as a large vacant lot?”
“huh.”
Didn’t ask anything. I decided to just do as I was told. I had absolutely no desire to get involved in complicated politics or the big picture.
[Current location: A large, virtually vacant lot.]
It was literally an empty lot. The floor feels like hard cement. A very large vacant lot appeared.
“Hey. “You caught me last time, right?”
“yes.”
“Then will you deal with me according to your abilities?”
“Are you saying this without taking into account the fact that you are in the second circle?”
Larsen nodded.
“I’m going to try some new things.”
“What am I to do?”
“Don’t kill me, but take your time and attack slowly.”
Heira had a serious expression.
“The unknown enemy does not treat the situation that way.”
Heira has always received ‘practical’ training. I think that is the truth.
“Heira is not my enemy.”
“….”
“He’s mine.”
Heira’s body flinched.
“…All right.”
For some reason, I didn’t hate the sight of the 7th Confucius smiling brightly. For some reason, it doesn’t feel bad to see the belief in oneself as well as the gun in those bright eyes. This is the first time I hear Heira say ‘my person’.
‘Let’s not back down.’
Heira has a duty to strengthen Larsen. I thought that was my mission as a shadow.
Larsen grinned and took a stance.
‘If I do this… I think something will happen.’
Larsen learned ‘how to actively utilize one’s abilities’ through Cheonan. The same goes for martial arts. The magic fighting skills imprinted on the body were activated.
Exciting!
Suddenly my heart was beating violently. It felt like someone had squeezed my heart and then let go.
‘I can feel it…’
What should I do? How does growth occur? Simply becoming part of the second circle is not enough. If you decide to do your best, it is right to do everything you can. That’s the right direction that writer Cha Seong-min thinks is the right direction to proceed.
‘I need to try this.’
The ‘two rings’ located in Larsen’s heart began to rotate violently.
‘I think I know how.’
A 10-year-old second-circle wizard who has gained the skills of a protagonist begins to do something on his own. This time, it is not by chance or coincidence, but by his own will.
