Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 47
The youngest son of the magic family, episode 47,
on the off-stage. Larsen lowered his center of gravity toward his lower body and looked at Kashin.
Things have changed a lot since I first met Kashin.
‘The proficiency in magic fighting has increased.’
In addition, he underwent body strengthening procedures over the course of 10 years. Accordingly, I came to have ‘transcendence mana’.
‘Because I can now handle more mana through the Transcendence Holy Grail.’
In addition, all waste products in the body were expelled through body reorganization. Pure and clean mana can now be used more efficiently.
‘We need to see how much power we can exert against Kashin.’
Test it against the main character in the novel. There will never be a ‘self-objectification work’ as accurate as this. Larsen thought so.
‘I can’t win anyway.’
There was a saying that always appeared when describing Kasin as a child. This is the content set by author Cha Seong-min himself.
[No one of his age could win against Kashin. Kashin is truly a genius among geniuses. He was born with an incredible talent that would turn even geniuses into dullards. Such a genius worked harder than ordinary geniuses. Genius and hard work combined to shine.]
It was set that way from the beginning. The term ‘peer’ includes Larsen himself. Larsen himself has grown a lot. Or, Kashin may have grown beyond his own growth.
‘come.’
Kashin’s movements were noticed.
“Straight thrust.”
At the same time, the tip of the sword appeared to have become a ‘dot’.
[property. ‘Slow Flow’ is automatically applied.]
Larsen’s unique ability. With ‘slow flow’ applied, Kashin’s movements could be read more accurately.
‘The direction of the heel is oddly wrong.’
I have a futa (後打) in mind. A straight stab is not a ‘real attack’. The goal is to create settings for a real attack.
Kashin’s sword becomes one point and shoots in a straight line. A famous sword that can cut through steel. The famous sword sparkled silver in the sunlight.
Larsen took a step back.
‘Two steps in a row. We will narrow the distance.’
As Lassen saw, Kashin’s movements were fast. It almost seemed like ‘flow slowly’ was being completely ignored. In a blink of an eye, Kashin came closer. Within the sword’s attack range. However, the distance is far enough that Larsen’s fist cannot reach.
“collect.”
Kashin retrieved his sword. Immediately turn your waist and say,
“Stab again.”
I put some weight on it and fired the sword. The expression ‘shot it out’ was not awkward at all. 10-year-old Kashin was truly the protagonist of a novel.
Larsen took a step to the side. And then I was scared.
‘crazy.’
Another problem was that the timing of the second attack was much faster than expected, and there was a bluish energy at the tip of the sword.
‘Sword energy?’
Although it was faint, there was a dark presence. This is not what Kashin intended. It’s obvious that it just happened that way.
‘It worked out better.’
I decided not to avoid it.
‘Avoid critical hits, but only slightly hurt.’
There is literally a difference of just a piece of paper. We decided to leave that much of a gap.
‘Right now, Kashin has added black energy without even knowing.’
This means that Kashin’s skills are not yet perfect. A state where one can manipulate sword energy but cannot control it perfectly. I’m at a point where I’m overflowing with black energy without even realizing it. According to the setting in the novel, it was a level equivalent to ‘1 star’.
“oh.”
Kashin hastily retrieved the sword. This is because I discovered that the blade was covered in sword energy without my knowledge. Larsen did not miss the opportunity.
‘I knew it would be like this.’
I knew Kashin would act like this. Using ‘geomgi’ while dancing is a clear foul unless mutually agreed upon. Black energy hurts people too much. So the rule is not to use it when mixing. So Kashin flinched.
Larsen closed the distance momentarily. A fight between swords and fists. He took a step forward and at the same time extended his fist.
‘I’ll duck back.’
Using the power of retrieving the sword, Kashin took a step backwards.
‘We need to dig deeper.’
Kashin made a mistake and created a gap. You must not miss this gap. There isn’t much opportunity. I bowed slightly. I took a half step to the left. I twisted my waist and raised my left fist from bottom to top.
[Beginner magic fighting technique. ‘Skillful use of body weight’ is used.]
Larsen himself cannot do it with physical strength alone. I was so anxious that my body couldn’t move properly. ‘Skilled use of body weight’ helped with that deficiency.
Kashin widened his eyes.
‘Did you suddenly find your balance?’
I quickly raised my sword vertically.
Taang-!
The sword and fist collided.
As soon as they collided, Kashin swung his sword sideways and widened the distance again. The dance is in a lull for a while.
“wow.”
Kashin’s eyes became a little more serious.
‘That’s magic fighting.’
I had never encountered martial arts before. So I was a little confused. I was sure that the balance would be lost. Taking advantage of the loss of balance, I slightly walked my legs to break the center of gravity and tried to subdue him with my sword.
‘But with Mana’s help, I forced myself to balance my weight.’
It was a little different from the way martial artists fight.
“This is possible with magic!”
It was amazing. It shows that it goes beyond physical laws. Kashin asked.
“How did you grow like this?”
“Martial arts naturally grow quickly.”
“Anyway, that’s true. “You’ve become a completely different person than last time.”
“That’s because you’re so tall. “That’s what magic is.”
There is also a physical difference now. Larsen was well aware of that fact, and because he knows that fact, he is directing it like this.
Larsen glanced at Magner, who was watching the referee.
‘How is it?’
Magner read those eyes. Magner realized. The current bimu is not simply a bimu that strengthens the friendship with Kashin. Larsen was now showing Magner himself. This is how a 10-year-old wizard uses magic.
‘That reckless bastard.’
This is the guy who made the absurd request to be his teacher. It seemed like he was planning to prove his qualifications here.
‘If it were Rosaline, would we have been able to compete on equal footing like this?’
Magner thought about it calmly as a third party.
‘no. ‘You can’t do that.’
Rosalind was clearly a natural genius, but she had only recently learned martial arts.
‘It would be good if the techniques of martial arts could be applied to martial arts as well.’
Isn’t that what Larsen, the youngest member of the magic family, suggested? I will reveal my martial arts skills, so you can reveal your martial arts skills. Let’s figure out what to skip and skip each other.
Magner’s heart raced.
‘I can’t believe there is someone at that age who can perform this level of fighting against Kashin.’
Normally it would end as soon as it started. What would it have been like if a guy like that had been born in the Grandel family? I had such a useless thought once.
Meanwhile, Carcia, the head of the Sayid family, who was watching the dance from under the rain stage, was also impressed.
‘That boy was definitely rumored to be a bastard.’
I tried recalling it several times, but I was right. Damn Larsen Mayton. How surprised I was when I first heard that Kashin decided to be friends with Larsen.
‘It’s not that far behind even against Kashin.’
It’s not surprising that it simply isn’t pushed aside.
In fact, if you move with the intention of ‘killing’, that boy is still no match for Kashin.
In martial arts, the ‘sword’ is an advantageous tool, but it is also a limitation that puts it at a disadvantage.
This is because you have to be considerate so as not to hurt the other person as much as possible. Because the sword itself is an object that can hurt people very easily.
‘What’s surprising is.’
It was the move from earlier.
‘I moved because I was confident that Kashin would stop.’
When Kashin used sword technique without realizing it. Instead of avoiding it, Larsen chose a bold lunge. Because of this, Kashin hurriedly withdrew his sword energy and showed an opening. The psychological war was won.
‘The ability to penetrate into gaps. The ability not to miss a split second. and the ability to gain the upper hand psychologically.’
It seemed unrivaled. It was natural for Carcia to be surprised to see her youngest son, a brat who had never been able to stand out until now, showing off like that.
‘It’s a risky gamble, but when it succeeds, it’s not a gamble.’
The fight ultimately ended with Kashin’s victory. Kashin’s sword touched Larsen’s uvula.
“Huff… gasp…!”
“Hehe.”
The two boys were breathing heavily. Kashin raised his sword. I sat down next to Larsen, who was sitting on the floor and breathing heavily. The two boys sat back to back. The two panted for a long time. Larsen’s entire body was drenched in sweat, and sweat was beading on Kashin’s forehead as well.
Some time has passed.
Kashin caught his breath relatively quickly, but Larsen was still panting. Kashin opened his mouth.
“I knew that magic was growing quickly.”
“….”
“But I didn’t know it would be this bad. “I was really surprised.”
I turned and sat down facing Larsen.
“And I’m glad.”
“…what?”
“The fact that my friend is growing up so fast.”
Larsen recalled the settings again.
[No one of his age could win against Kashin.]
To put it another way, if Larsen himself becomes stronger extremely quickly, Kashin becomes stronger even faster. Because based on the absolute value of the setting, a person of the same age would not be able to defeat Kashin.
Larsen said.
“Don’t like me too much.”
“why?”
“We might have to turn against each other someday.”
Of course, I have no intention of doing so. I don’t want to do that. I will be independent and live well. Anyway, I had to push and pull a bit with Kashin.
“What are you talking about?”
“That’s how we were born. “I am a descendant of the Mayton family, and you are a descendant of the Seid family.”
“What does that matter? “We are friends.”
“I also consider you a friend and we will maintain a good relationship in the future, but we cannot be free from the struggle for world hegemony.”
Of course I don’t mean it. But it was enough to put a dent in 10-year-old Kashin’s heart.
‘I can’t believe I have to push and pull with a 10-year-old boy at this age.’
Anyway, writer Cha Seong-min knew very well how to cook for his 10-year-old protagonist.
‘At this point, it’s time for the head of the Sayid family to step forward.’
Karsia is a father who wants to show his son only good things, make him feel only beautiful things, and show him only a brilliant world.
I thought of course he would stop talking at this point. Larsen’s thoughts were correct.
“Hmm. Well done to both of you. Such an achievement at such a young age. I am so proud and satisfied with both of them. “I feel like my eyes have been opened.”
Larsen stood up. Following the rules of a master swordsman, I closed my fist with one palm.
“I am honored to receive your praise.”
“I heard that magic is growing quickly, so it seems to be true.”
“It’s still just insignificant.”
The collaboration with Kashin is over, but Larsen’s directing is not.
Just as Kashin set up ‘straight thrust’ to attack Larsen, Larsen also set up here to continue the next scenario.
This situation was created through cooperation with Kashin.
I opened my mouth.
“I want to become strong.”
“Good idea.”
“I want to become stronger than Kashin.”
“That’s a good idea too. “I will be a strong rival.”
To be honest, even Larsen was surprised. I didn’t expect him to fight this well with Kashin. It may be thanks to the fact that I gained a lot of opportunities that I didn’t even think about in the beginning.
‘There is no guarantee that the streak will continue.’
It is much safer to proceed assuming that there is no chance at all.
‘Carcia would ask for a specific method.’
Karsia, the head of the family, encourages dreaming of ideals, but also considers realistic ways to achieve those ideals important.
“So how do you plan to become stronger?”
“I plan to learn martial arts from Tuwang.”
At the same time, the corners of Carcia’s mouth rose. An interesting situation began to occur from Carcia’s perspective.
