Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 43
Magic Master’s Youngest Son Episode 43
Larsen laughed lightly.
“If you had tried to refuse, I would have cut you off with a single knife.”
“….”
I created a situation where I couldn’t refuse. It stimulated my curiosity and allowed me to explore my body first.
It made me think about ‘Martial Arts’. By the time Magner didn’t cut him off with a single cut, the victory was already Larsen’s.
“But you didn’t do that. “Aren’t you already interested in magic fighting?”
“To be exact, it’s the magic fighting skill that you, Mayton, have.”
“Martial arts is fighting power. And when combined with martial arts, the highest efficiency can be achieved. “My own new martial arts technique will be born.”
It’s not that my own new ‘Martial Arts’ is born, but a new ‘Martial Arts’ is born. This was definitely not something a Mayton wizard would say. This is something a born wizard would never say.
“It is for this purpose that you continue to reveal your power. “Since I met Rosaline again.”
“yes. “From then on, start taking interest in me.”
“no wonder. “It seemed like he was after something.”
It’s outrageous. It was so foolish that it was abandoned. I never thought there would be a guy like this on Mayton Street.
“Did you apply for the secret service on purpose?”
“yes. you’re right. Still, the biggest reason was to relieve Rosaline’s anger.”
Larsen spoke again.
“Creation of a new martial arts technique. “Don’t you want to see it?”
“….”
Magner was lost in thought for a moment. Creation of new martial arts. Just hearing it made Magner’s heart beat. Whether it is actually possible or not. It was enough to make Tuwang’s heart beat, as he was already feeling bored with the world.
“I am here. “I plan to entrust myself to the swordsman Seid.”
“If you look at it from the outside, you’ll look like a pawn, right?”
What is it with the Mayton family that they send their youngest son to a master swordsman? Like a hostage.
“Because I’m a mess.”
“….”
“I am a son of a bitch. Even if it’s within the family, it’s okay if it’s not there. Still, externally, he appears to be a successful successor. “Instead of letting me, such a piece of trash, stay at Sayid Street, my father will get another benefit.”
Throw away Larsen and take advantage of other benefits. After hearing it, it seemed plausible.
“I don’t think it would be too dignified to send me as I am not another candidate for successor.”
“The reason you entrust yourself here is because it is the safest, right?”
“That’s right.”
“I’m going crazy.”
Magner spoke honestly.
“I don’t know if you were raised by the Mayton family or if you are just a mutated mutant.”
“I take it as a compliment.”
Magner took his hand off Larsen’s back.
‘this guy. ‘Extremely calm.’
You probably know what you’re talking about. My heartbeat was steady even as I made the absurd statement that I would become Tuwang Magner’s disciple. This means that this is not something that has just been thought of, but has been planned for a long time.
“Let me find out.”
“That means….”
“Yes. It’s consent. Become my disciple. I will look into your magic fighting skills. I will spy on your body and mana. I plan to find out everything that Mayton has prepared. Do you understand? In the meantime, steal everything you have to steal from me.”
“It’s what I hoped for.”
Magner and Larsen. The deal between the two was confirmed.

Hampton closed the door and came in, shedding tears. Hampton listened to everything that King Magner and Seventh Prince Larsen said. If I had tried to stop them from hearing it, I would have done just that.
‘Confucius… trusts me completely.’
So he just let me listen.
‘How big of a picture are you drawing? I don’t even dare measure it.’
Prince Larsen is a descendant of a famous magic family. However, I asked to learn from the second-in-command of a martial arts master. That place is even a famous swordsman’s house. The world’s three largest families are all intertwined.
‘You’re really drawing the big picture.’
Perhaps Confucius will unite all three great families in the future and create a world where people can truly live. beautiful world. A world where no one is sick. You may be dreaming of such a world.
‘I will help you, Confucius!’
I was burning with a sense of duty. Although all he had was knowledge related to poison, he promised himself over and over again that he would actively use this knowledge to help Confucius.
Then suddenly I heard a voice.
“here. tissue.”
“Ahh!”
I was surprised by its sudden appearance. It was Heira.
“sister. “You were surprised.”
“don’t cry.”
I took the tissue.
“The shock of knowing that my sister was just another shadow hasn’t even gone away yet, and I’m going to die of a heart attack like this.”
“If you die like that, you are not worthy of serving Confucius.”
“You’re cool.”
It’s cold, but it’s also true.
“Thank you, though. “I will use the toilet paper well.”
“Blow your nose too.”
A moment passed. Heira said.
“Hampton. “You must have heard Confucius’ choice.”
“yes. “He said he would stay here.”
“After the birthday party, you will go to your parents’ house to get permission.”
Hampton swallowed. Go to your hometown. It is true that this is a matter that requires permission from the head of the family.
“We might have to risk our lives.”
The heir of a master magic family entrusts himself to a master swordsman? How absurd is this?
This can be upsetting to the head of the household. If he gets angry and unleashes his magical power, he might end up in a firestorm if he stays next to him for no reason.
Hampton said.
“are you okay.”
Hampton believed in the world Larsen showed him. Hailan Province. It changed the place. Larsen was a light for Hampton.
“Because that’s what a shadow is supposed to do. “I will protect Prince Larsen by my side.”
“Even if the head of the family admonishes me?”
“But my light is Prince Larsen.”
Heira nodded. Hampton looked around.
“huh?”
Before I knew it, Heira had disappeared.

The night before Kashin’s birthday party.
The 4th floor terrace of Aslan, the separate building where Larsen and his party are staying.
There, Larsen drank tea with Evelia.
Evelia said.
“You suddenly want to drink tea?”
“Yes, sister.”
“It seems like you want to say something important.”
“As expected, you are quick-witted.”
Evelia lifted up a warm teacup. What can I say? This feeling. not bad. Sitting across from my youngest brother, whom I thought was a fool, and drinking tea. This black tea was warm and fragrant.
“Important words. “Why don’t you do it later?”
I took another sip of black tea. From the 4th floor terrace, you could see a flower field. Tulips shining in various colors delighted Evelia’s eyes.
“It’s a waste of this little time to say something important.”
Larsen also looked down at the tulip garden. I feel it while looking at Evelia. When I created Evelia as a writer and when I experienced Evelia as a character, it was completely different. As a writer, my understanding of the character was too low.
“Do you like tulips?”
“Because people are attracted to beautiful things.”
“I thought the most beautiful thing for you was magic.”
Evelia laughed lightly.
“Magic was the most beautiful thing to me, but it also became the cruelest thing.”
“Do you feel that flowers are beautiful?”
“That’s the way it is these days.”
Until her early 20s, she followed the path of a loser. I thought that was what a mage had to do. There wasn’t even a flower in sight. But strangely enough, these days, flowers catch my eye. Those flowers blooming under the blue moonlit night just stayed in place.
“At least flowers don’t harm people.”
“I’ll give you flowers later.”
“flower?”
Evelia smiled.
“I get excited just hearing that.”
Evelia touched Larsen’s head once. And then he continued speaking.
“Then, shall we listen to what our youngest wants to say?”
“I want to stay in a swordsman’s house.”
“You are a candidate for the Mayton family’s successor. So you want to stay with another family? “Don’t you know what it will look like from the outside?”
Larsen spoke with Evelia. It went in a similar vein to the conversation I had with Magner. Evelia looked at Larsen.
‘this child.’
He’s definitely a bright kid. However, there is something strangely disturbing about the conversation.
“Larsen. Do you want to be the head of the family?”
“I have no such thoughts whatsoever.”
Although he mentioned ‘prospective mage’, he has no intention of becoming the head of the family.
“If you want, you can use your special powers to explore me.”
The last mage. Evelia has a magic called ‘Eye of Truth’. A magic that allows only wizards of lower level of achievement than yourself to identify lies and truths with a very high probability.
“okay. Because it’s better to be certain.”
Evelia placed her hand on Larsen’s head. Her special expression. He spit out a chant.
“Edel- Kera- Noenpetera.”
Larsen’s entire body was covered with pure white mana. Eventually, the mana disappeared.
“You’re serious.”
“yes. “I’m serious.”
Evelia nodded.
“Then what makes you so desperate?”
Evelia read. Larsen was desperate now. That earnestness was conveyed to Evelia. The magnitude of the longing captured by the ‘eyes of truth’ was very large. It is not a desire to become the head of the family. So what kind of craving is this big?
“I want to live.”
“You want to live?”
Those words weighed heavily on Evelia’s ears. I want to live. Just one word pierced my heart.
“yes. I was born with a talent called martial arts that had clear limitations. This is a vulnerability in Maton, a famous magic company. Even my older brother, the 6th Confucius, must have been itching to kill me.”
“Although the succession war is fierce, it does not take the lives of brothers. “You must be misunderstanding something.”
Larsen shook his head. no. This is a succession war purely from Evelia’s perspective.
“Right now, my father purged his brothers and took the position of head of the family. sister.”
In the original work, Larsen was actually executed at the age of 17. Evelia put down the warm tea cup.
“good. “Assuming that’s the case.”
I asked again.
“Then why do you want to stay here? “I don’t think it means you want to run away from the house.”
“I want to become strong.”
“why?”
“Do you need any other reason than wanting to live?”
“I’m asking because I think there might be another reason for you.”
Larsen felt a little strange about Evelia. I thought about it. What answer does Evelia want now? What kind of answer is waiting for the last mage to be executed by Kashin?
‘Ivelia….’
Evelia wanted to protect the Mayton family. He remained in the collapsing Mayton family and protected the Mayton family until the end. And there he was beheaded.
So I answered like this.
“I want to protect it.”
“what?”
Mayton Street and the people I love.
I couldn’t bear to answer like this. To be honest, I don’t really have any desire to protect the Mayton family, and I haven’t found people I can love yet.
However, lying in front of Evelia is likely to be poisonous.
So I answered like this.
“Myself. And my mother.”
At that moment, ‘a collection of settings with insufficient probability’ came to mind. It unfolded as if giving Larsen a hint. Among the settings, the character section. The settings about Evelia came to mind.
[Ivelia blindly loved the Mayton family. A person who can become a villain for the Mayton family, and a good person for the Mayton family. That is why Evelia was able to achieve what she has now.]
This is what author Cha Seong-min has set out. Evelia is a person who loves the Mayton family.
However, after that, the settings independently given by the world unfolded. Evelia’s other settings began to appear. It was shocking information to Larsen and Cha Seong-min.
