Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 40
The youngest son of the magic family Episode 40
Rosaline took a stance.
The unique posture of a martial arts master. Cha Seong-min’s childhood. This is the posture taken by the protagonists of Hong Kong action movies, which were the dreams of male teenagers. A preparation posture similar to kung fu.
The momentum was quite sharp.
‘It looks like there’s a wildcat ahead.’
Rosaline lowered her lower body a little. The center of gravity was placed a little more toward the floor.
“Goes.”
Rosalind’s body sprang up like a spring. But it didn’t come too close.
‘Street fighting. you’re good.’
Just as it is for swordsmen, distance is very important for martial arts artists as well. The distance at which I can attack and avoid the opponent’s attack. You have to play within that distance.
A location that you can reach if you just stretch out your hand.
‘I can’t see any gaps.’
But there were no gaps in sight.
‘If I extend my fist here.’
I pictured it in my head. Rosalyn will immediately dodge the punch and counterattack.
‘Then what about me?’
I moved back half a step.
‘I have longer arms.’
Larsen has the advantage in a street fight based on physical strength alone. In the case of a skilled martial artist, he/she uses ‘fighting power’ enough to ignore physical strength. In wizard terms, fighting power is similar to mana. Mana used by martial artists. It is known that the attack range can be freely adjusted by actively utilizing its ‘fighting power’.
‘But Rosaline hasn’t reached that level yet.’
Rosalyn can’t handle fighting power yet. At that moment, Rosalyn snuggled into Larsen’s arms. Larsen wasn’t fazed.
[property. ‘Slowly flowing’ is automatically applied.]
I was able to read Rosaline’s movements.
‘You’ll get out of here quickly behind me.’
And I’ll watch your back.
‘Under my right armpit.’
They will try to escape under here and take over the back.
‘If I push him away.’
I think I’ll stop trying to hit the back and use the recoil to kick the side with my left foot. I stopped judging in an instant.
Larsen gave a light push. To not give your back. just as expected.
“Ha!”
With a burst of energy, Rosalyn’s left leg bent like a whip and hit Larsen’s side. Larsen has already read the location.
He put his arms to his sides and blocked his legs.
[Skilled beginner magic fighting skills. ‘Self-defense’ is activated.]
Rosalind felt strange.
‘I’m sure he went in?’
Strange feeling.
‘This looks like cold water, doesn’t it?’
It didn’t do enough damage. I was planning on breaking my ribs along with my arm bone, but it didn’t go in.
‘What is it, boy?’
It was something different from fighting with martial artists. Matusul. Something doesn’t seem right.
Larsen looked at Magner’s expression at that moment.
‘I think Magner was quite surprised too.’
We have come this far. It was amazing. No matter how much of a writer they were, their thoughts and predictions seem to be visible. Put the characters on stage and make them dance on that stage. I had that feeling. I felt like I had become a ‘real writer’.
‘You’ll probably misunderstand it. It will come to me on its own.’
* * *
Tuwang Magnor watched Rosalyn and Larsen’s dance. He thought very rationally.
‘surely. ‘He has been thoroughly trained.’
A dog cannot be born to tiger parents. The rumors about Larsen were false and intentionally fabricated. Larsen was at least two moves ahead of Rosalyn.
‘Rosalyn’s attack. No, I’m reading two moves ahead.’
Larsen is moving for defense half a step faster than Rosalyn’s attack. Always dodge before the attack hits. He had incredibly accurate eyes and sense of humor.
Larsen’s movements were a little strange.
‘Why don’t they attack?’
Just focus on defense. At first glance, Rosalyn seemed to dominate Larsen. Because Rosalyn is attacking and Larsen is only defending.
‘That guy Larsen just saw Rosalyn’s weakness.’
As time passed, Rosalind’s body began to gain more strength thanks to the medication. As strength increases and body movements increase, gaps are appearing one by one.
‘We are taking up a position where we can attack Rosaline’s gap.’
This becomes more so as time passes. There was a clear difference in skill. Frankly, Magner was surprised. Even though it was a variable prepared by the Mayton family, I still had no idea that a 10-year-old child who had mastered magic fighting skills would show such skills.
‘But they don’t attack.’
I was able to realize it when I saw it. Larsen was not doing what is commonly referred to today as ‘dancing.’ Rosalyn is trying to beat him and hit him until he gets freed. This is a kid from a magic family.
‘Places that aren’t dangerous are being treated roughly.’
That is impossible without a significant difference in skill.
What Magner is seeing, Carcia, the matriarch of the master swordsman family, is also seeing. Carcia’s eyes were also staring directly at Larsen. Carcia also seemed to sense that something was unusual.
‘They are showing an overwhelming skill gap while only defending. ‘Why not in this place?’
Magner was able to understand why this position was created and what the Mayton family was aiming for.
‘This is… a painting of the Maytons.’
I was able to realize
‘Magic fighting is the lowest class among the numerous classes of magic.’
However, with that ‘martial arts’, he is showing an ability that surpasses that of martial arts masters. Even though it is a fight between children, the two are candidates for successor. The symbolism is great.
‘There are two reasons why he shows that here.’
Even ‘Martial Arts’, a sub-discipline of magic, can have abilities comparable to ‘Martial Arts’. This is to show it at a gathering of people from the world’s three most prestigious families.
‘The idea is to show off the power of the Mayton family.’
A fight between families and a display of power. It’s a long tradition. I feel like I got punched without even thinking about it.
‘When I go back, my brother will nag me.’
They have already lost once to the Mayton family in a battle. It’s not a big deal, but it’s a situation where a war can break out over such a trivial matter. Something as small as this can create big waves. Tuwang Magner knows that very well.
I clenched my fists.
‘The Maytons.’
This was some kind of provocation. Did Larsen plan and carry out this alone? no. This was done according to the Mayton family’s thorough planning and calculation.
‘one more.’
It was clear that Maton, a master of magic, was currently researching ‘magic conversion’ with Grandel, a master of martial arts.
At that time, Karcia, the head of the swordsman Seid, smiled lightly and said.
“It seems that King Tu has similar thoughts as me.”
“yes. “I guess so.”
“It appears that Larsen’s rumor was intentionally distorted.”
Magner also decided that way.
“It is presumed that Larsen is a wizard specializing in magic fighting who was secretly raised by the Mayton family.”
“I agree.”
It was probably managed in an organized and systematic manner. He is not qualified to become the head of the family. However, it can be used as a tool for the development of the Mayton family, which can develop ‘new studies’.
Karcia asked.
“Then why are you revealing that here?”
Carcia actually knows this too. Now Karcia and Magner are thinking the same thing.
“It is understood that they have secretly researched and developed martial arts and are now trying to achieve practical development by verifying their practical abilities against martial arts.”
I don’t know, but the theory may have been completed. The first tool to incorporate that theory. That tool is the Larsen Maton. Magner’s mind became clear. I felt like I could see everything clearly.
Karcia nodded.
“And Mayton knew we would both notice this.”
Magner also nodded along.
“It’s a provocation.”
“yes. “It’s a provocation.”
It wasn’t an unpleasant provocation. Magner felt alive for the first time in a while. For him, this kind of provocation is fun. Welcome anytime. He would have done the same if he had been the Mayton family’s strategist. If you want to develop your martial arts skills against the martial arts of a martial arts master, wouldn’t it be more efficient to develop it with someone who is second in command of the martial arts master?
“If you want to learn about the magic martial arts of a magic master, do as much as you can. Instead, bring the principles of martial arts and the data accumulated there. “I guess it means this.”
“I decided that way too. ha ha ha!”
Carcia and Magner both thought so, and Evelia, who was listening to the conversation from the side, silently laughed to herself.
‘This is the picture you drew.’
Magner said.
“Good.”
Approach Lassen and find out about magic. A study ambitiously prepared and newly developed by the Mayton family. I decided to take a look and see how great it was.
‘I discovered martial arts through him, and he discovered martial arts and martial arts through me.’
A relationship where both parties can take advantage of each other. From now on, it is up to the individual’s ability to determine who gets the better thing or who gets more. Meanwhile, I lost once in a battle of pride between families. I feel like I got hit first.
‘You’ve put together a very interesting plan. ‘Decatra.’
Magner decided not to avoid it. After the meeting, I decided to meet Larsen personally.
But then Larsen felt something strange.
‘what?’
At first glance, it seems like I’ve achieved everything I originally set out to do. Seeing my sister smiling faintly made me even more confident.
‘What is this feeling?’
Dancing with Rosaline. I felt like I could get something new here. First of all, we had to continue with the dance. Larsen shook his fist. A distance widened between the two.
Rosalind took a deep breath.
“Hehe! until when. Heh! Are you just going to defend?”
“Until you are released.”
“If you really want to do that, at least pretend it’s difficult!”
Rosalind closed the distance in an instant. Rosalind stretched out her fist. I didn’t think about the future. Defense was not even considered. Because he just stretched out his fist out of anger, the movement was very large.
puck!
There was a loud sound.
“Tsk!”
A groan escaped Larsen’s mouth.
Collock.
Larsen vomited blood.
‘I thought my heart was going to explode.’
It hurt a lot. I really thought my heart was going to explode.
“what. “Why aren’t you avoiding me?”
“I think you want me to treat you properly.”
“What kind of dance is this!”
Rosaline hurriedly took something out of her arms. It was a ‘potion’. A potion that has excellent healing properties.
Rosaline threw it away.
“drink!”
Larsen accepted the potion.
gulp. gulp.
I drank the potion.
I could feel my cracked bones healing. The pain in my chest also disappeared. Rosalyn said.
“I lost.”
She kicked the ground for no reason.
“You’re annoying. “I just used my fighting power.”
Rosaline’s fighting power. It is an unfinished and unrefined fighting power. I still can’t handle fighting power properly. If Larsen wanted to fight back, he could have done it.
‘Thanks to fighting power, it became clear.’
Larsen just laughed to himself. I just realized it more clearly thanks to my fighting power. Larsen’s own mana. The power clearly responded to that. According to the setting, ‘energy does not react to each other’, but there was definitely a reaction.
Rosalyn flipped her back! I turned it.
“Because I kept acting so nice, I no longer had the desire to be angry.”
Rosaline turned her back and walked nervously.
“Anyway, I will forgive you. Because you cracked your ribs. “I will never hold a grudge against you again because of what happened before.”
“thank you.”
And at that time, Kashin jumped up on top of the unarmed man. Kashin’s expression was very flushed.
