Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 34

The youngest son of the magic family Episode 34

Larsen took a step. As always, looking at Decatra or Evelia is like looking at Mount Tai.

A huge mountain that looks like if you make a mistake, a landslide will occur and hit you. I walked towards those two.

I bowed my back.

“I heard you called.”

“okay.”

Evelia took a step to the side as if to make way. Larsen moved a few more steps towards there and stood next to Evelia.

“Is there anything you would like to tell me?”

“You probably know why I called you.”

“….”

Larsen pretended to think for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“Master swordsman. “Did you call me because of Seid’s invitation?”

“yes.”

In an instant, the air around me, including the desk, froze. Ice crystals fell to the ground.

Looking at that, Larsen could guess.

‘This is an atmosphere created intentionally.’

It was a little different from last time. Larsen could feel the subtle difference. I can’t help but say it’s arrogant, but it just felt that way. Although it was intentionally staged, the sense of pressure was not fake.

‘cold.’

I feel like my heart is freezing. The ‘Mana Circle’ is always rotating slowly. If the rotation stops, the ‘mana circle’ is broken. The ‘Mana Freeze’ magic, which is mainly used by high-level ice wizards, is also based on this principle. It felt a bit like that now.

‘I wouldn’t actually do that.’

Because the character Decat wants Larsen to become stronger.

“Why are you intentionally creating this situation?”

“It’s intentional.”

The ice crystals disappeared like a lie. The ‘cold air’ has completely disappeared.

“What made you think it was intentional?”

“If my father had tried to freeze me, his will alone would have frozen me to death. But you didn’t do that.”

Larsen felt it. Compared to the ‘cold air’ generated in the room, the intensity of the ‘cold air’ applied directly to oneself is not that strong. Of course, it is true that I felt cold enough to cause mana freezing. However, it is also true that it was relatively weaker than the surrounding cold.

Larsen guessed.

‘Why Decatra does this to me.’

To scare yourself? no.

‘An intentional production to show in front of Sister Evelia that he is still quite a useful guy.’

There was no other way to interpret it. Once you understand Decatra’s intentions, you can help direct the production accordingly. That was the best Larsen could do.

“I don’t think I did anything wrong.”

“The Seid are a race that must crawl like insects beneath our feet.”

Getting an invitation from Seid like that? Depending on how you think about it, it can be a situation that can make you angry. Perhaps one of my brothers would definitely think so. The youngest is crazy and is friendly with Seid’s successor. That’s why my father was so angry. It was obvious that people without great eyes would think that way.

Larsen thinks they misunderstand his father. Larsen was sure of that.

“Of course I think so too. “They will lick our feet like dogs and crawl on the floor like bugs.”

“Looking at your behavior, it doesn’t seem like it at all.”

Decatra thought that Larsen met Cassin intentionally. Larsen read it too. So I decided not to lie.

“As you know, I met you in Kashin and Hailan provinces. There I applied to Kashin for a job. “By their standards, bimu was like a ritual to become friends.”

“How did you know Cassin was there?”

“It was a coincidence. “I thought heaven had given me a chance to trample on the Sayid family.”

“I heard you applied for military service.”

For them, bimu is a ritual to become friends. It is a sacred thing that confirms each other’s faith.

“Because hidden magic is more terrifying than visible magic.”

Evelia looked at Larsen silently.

‘I felt it in the 10-year model too… but it has changed.’

In fact, Evelia was not interested in Larsen. I’ve only heard rumors that he’s a bitch, but I’ve never actually met him. It was almost like a complete stranger who only knew his face.

‘Why did the rumor spread like that?’

Evelia was also confident.

‘It hasn’t changed.’

People change so easily? Evelia didn’t think so. Basically, people don’t change. In other words, Larsen was like that from the beginning.

‘Someone intentionally distorted the information.’

And who is that someone? Evelia suddenly realized.

‘father?’

Evelia guessed it was her father.

‘Father… he would also know that the body strengthening technique did not fail.’

Evelia, who performed it herself, knows that the ‘body strengthening technique’ did not fail. I didn’t understand it exactly, but the body strengthening technique and transcendent mana did not disappear. I got sucked into somewhere. I didn’t know where it was, but it wasn’t a failure anyway.

‘But you announced that you failed.’

Evelia had eyes that could read the situation. I also understood why this place was created. Father wasn’t just scolding Larsen now.

The father is intentionally showing his youngest child’s true colors to him.

‘why?’

I was finally able to look broadly and see big.

‘All information about Larsen was completely distorted. Because he was exiled to the Maple Annex. It would have been easier to manipulate information.’

I assumed that my father did it himself.

‘Now you are showing Larsen’s true face in front of me. on purpose.’

What does this mean?

‘Is my father trying to create a variable for me?’

For now, I had no choice but to think that way. Succession war. Maybe his father is giving him strength.

‘Then does your father think Larsen could be a variable in the succession war?’

Not for now. Evelia is clearly feeling a great surprise from Larsen, but that is only due to the gap resulting from ‘distortion of information’. The guy I thought was an asshole is now pretending to be a person. So it’s just surprising. However, it is barely enough to be a variable.

Larsen continued.

“I have served 10 years and am a proud member of the Mayton family. “I plan to jump into the succession war in earnest.”

This is natural for the Mayton family. Because he didn’t do this obvious thing, Larsen in the original died at the age of 17.

“But it has been a long time since my older brother and older sister have already established their own territory and created their own people within the family. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. “Because I was born late.”

Literally, ‘order’ is something you’re born with. cannot be changed

“I decided that I could not increase my power within the family. Therefore, I thought I needed to build my own influence outside of the family.”

“Are you trying to drag others into the war against your brothers?”

“For me, it’s not the time to mix hot and cold water.”

This is a method that traditional magicians have not tried. They somehow resolved everything ‘within the family’. The reason for that was not set. This has been the unspoken rule so far.

But Larsen is not a traditional Mayton.

“Bring in foreign powers. “Do you know what you are saying?”

“I know.”

He is a writer. As a writer, I searched for a solution. The audience has more information than the characters in the play. After all, he is a writer. You can look wider and see bigger.

“The reason I became friends with Kashin is so that one day I can make him my dog.”

Although I would never say that in front of Kashin. Anyway, Kashin is not here right now.

“A well-trained wolf can even hunt a tiger.”

“Sometimes they even eat their owners.”

“My father said this.”

There is something I said during the 10th anniversary.

“That’s my luck too. “If I get eaten, that will also be my blessing.”

“….”

“I will tame him like a dog. If it barks, it barks, if it crawls, it crawls, and if it licks, it licks. We will make you a swordsman, not a swordsman. The will of the sword cannot surpass the path of magic. I must! “I will make it that way.”

* * *

Evelia and Larsen came out of Decatra’s room. For the first time, Evelia spoke to Larsen privately.

“Larsen.”

“yes. sister.”

This alone is a huge improvement. Larsen thought so.

“When the invitation came from the Sayid family. “Did you all expect this to happen?”

“yes. “But I didn’t know who would be called with me.”

I won’t send you to Seidgar alone. Someone must have followed in the name of guardian. To learn more about the swordsman. To crush your rivals. They will try to send along someone they can trust and someone who is compatible with that ’cause’.

From Decatra’s perspective, that was Evelia.

“He spoke as if he had imagined the conversation with his father many times in his head.”

“yes. “If you don’t practice in advance, your head will stiffen in front of your father.”

“When I was your age, I couldn’t even say that in front of my father.”

Evelia was taller than Larsen. His stride was slightly wider than Larsen’s. However, I walked at Larsen’s pace.

“Larsen. “Let me ask you one more question.”

“Yes, sister.”

“Body strengthening technique.”

In an instant, the hallway changed. It has become a dark world. Cut off from the surroundings. Evelia used magic.

“Did you really fail?”

“….”

Larsen thought for a moment. I think Evelia knows that she did not fail. Then again, lying doesn’t seem to be the right choice.

“It did not fail.”

“Then can you explain what happened to the transcendent mana engraved on the scroll?”

What choice would the writer have made? Would you have given me the correct answer? Would they have used a different direction? I thought for a moment.

“sorry. “It’s difficult to tell.”

Evelia’s eyebrows twitched slightly. Basically, Evelia has a gentle nature. However, he is not just a good person. He is a person who can be as cruel as he wants. Being gentle is the standard of a ‘magic master’.

A writer would have handled the conversation like this.

“Because even my father is keeping quiet.”

A character in the story would never have dared to sell Decatra. The value of the Decatra name is too heavy for that.

Evelia laughed lightly.

“That’s true too.”

Evelia was sure there.

‘Larsen is a variable that my father arranged for me.’

Otherwise, there is no way Larsen could have sold his father like that.

‘However, how to utilize this variable is my competency.’

If not utilized properly, Larsen may be passed over to other brothers. Because my father is that kind of person.

‘Now… it can’t even be considered a variable.’

Then, there is only one thing that Father wants from Evelia herself.

[Make variables like variables.]

My father gave this command.

[I will give you the opportunity first.]

Raise Larsen to be more like a human being. If you do that, it may one day act as a variable. That is the arrangement I have prepared.

I felt as if I had heard those words.

Evelia misunderstood that. And Larsen, who was aiming for timing, opened his mouth.

‘This is the time.’

He was neither a great writer nor a best-selling author.

However, this article was written by Larsen.

Creator of this world. He knows well how to direct and influence which character. Contrary to the obvious expectations of the characters in the story.

However, Larsen directed the story while satisfying the character’s expectations.

“But there is one thing I want to show you.”

A space cut off from the outside.

Here Larsen began rotating the mana circle to show something new.
