Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 70
The youngest son of the magic family, episode 70,
Lydia said.
“really?”
“uh. really.”
“Fireworks?”
“uh.”
“Then shall I give you my strength?”
“Give it as tight as you can!”
Lydia says uriyaaa! The mana of fire was raised with a strange sense of energy. In an instant, the surrounding area began to burn. red flame. And an acrid smell. Larsen wet a handkerchief, put it to his mouth, and headed toward the entrance.
Cheonan interpreted the situation in real time. Although I couldn’t see because of the acrid smoke, Larsen told me exactly the direction and path I wanted to take. It feels like looking ahead with an infrared camera.
‘That’s the exit.’
Larsen grabbed Lydia’s wrist and went down the stairs.
‘There are two ambushes at the exit.’
There are two ambushes. Assassins and ambushes are feared because they are secretive. But in the current situation, I am not afraid. Larsen’s mana circle rotated.
I felt like my eyes were becoming clearer.
‘Goes.’
I rushed towards the exit. I rolled on the floor awkwardly. However, the attack by the masked men was avoided. Lydia also rolled over. After rolling a few times, he stood up, shaking off his clothes.
Larsen bent his knees.
[Beginner magic fighting technique. Use ‘Swift Resolve.’]
A technique that consumes mana quickly but also increases physical ability accordingly. In an instant, the distance between him and the masked person was shortened. I put my fist into my stomach.
Lydia screamed one word.
“Larsen!”
This is because a sharp sword was falling towards the back of Larsen’s head.
“You bastard!”
Lydia hurriedly threw a fireball. Fireballs thrown randomly without complex calculations or elaborate controls. However, it was enough to make the masked person flinch. Larsen twisted his body.
“nice. “Lydia.”
[Beginner magic fighting technique. ‘Skilled use of body weight’ is used.]
The horse fighting technique, which artificially maintains the center of gravity to maintain good balance in most situations, shined. Larsen jumped up as if he had been thrown out. He hit the masked man’s chin with his head. The shock must have been so great that the masked man collapsed.
The two masked men collapsed on the floor, giggling.
“I will not ask about your identity.”
Because you already know. I already saw it in Cheonan. The name of one masked person is Berento. Another person’s name was ‘Brick’. Brick, the owner of this inn.
[Name: Brick]
[Characteristics: A small-time information business that wants to maintain business.]
Larsen accurately understood what judgments Brick made and what choices he made.
“This is the territory of the Mayton family. “If a fire created by magic breaks out, a magic investigation team will be dispatched immediately.”
Larsen put his foot on Brick’s back to keep him from moving. I stepped on his spine.
“My family doesn’t care where I do anything, whether I live as a guest or not. however.”
“….”
“The moment you violate the self-control of the Mayton family in front of the Magic Investigation Team, which is a descendant of Mayton, you will be arrested as a red-blooded criminal.”
Larsen unmasked Brick. Brick was right.
“Brick, an information merchant belonging to the Voice of the Night.”
“…yes.”
“I will hold you accountable for attacking me.”
Didn’t kill it. Brick had no intention of killing Larsen anyway.
“If you had tried to kill me, you would have died, but I will take into account the fact that you did not.”
Larsen injected a handful of ‘mana’ through the foot that was touching Brick’s back. The mana traveled down Brick’s spine and toward his fingertips.
“Aaaah!”
The tip of Brick’s little finger was distorted. Brick had a hunch. The little finger bone was completely shattered. I will never be able to use my little finger again.
“let’s go. “Lydia.”
Larsen put on his robe and walked away.
* * *
Brick. And Berento was arrested by the magic investigation team dispatched and taken away as a suspect of arson. Brick swallowed.
‘Where on earth are we?’
Brick and Berento. Both of their eyes are covered with blindfolds.
“Remove the blindfold.”
The blindfold was gently removed. Brick and Barento both couldn’t help but swallow their saliva. Absolute power of the present era. Decatra, the great mage who rules the world, was in front of me. Brick and Barento did not expect that Decatra would directly interrogate them.
“Why did you attack Maton’s flesh and blood?”
“Because we thought that was a way for us to continue working.”
“I remember that the business has already been approved.”
Cold sweat ran down Brick’s back. Decatra, which had already been permitted to operate, conspired to obtain permission to operate again? If you make a mistake, it may seem like you are ignoring Decatra’s authority.
“We are information merchants. So, I decided to figure out what the current head of the Mayton family wants and show it to them. Attacking the 7th Prince was a small gift from us.”
We simulated it several times. Although I never thought I would be speaking directly in front of Decatra. Decatra grinned as if it was amusing.
“It wasn’t a bad gift.”
Decatra nodded.
“How the youngest perceives the situation and how he deals with it. “You probably wanted to show it.”
“That’s right.”
“You’re a pretty capable information merchant.”
Brick bowed his head.
“I will do my best.”
“Did you start the fire?”
“no. 7 This is a fire magic used by a young girl accompanying Confucius. “She said her name was Lydia.”
I also liked that about Decatra. If they had just dealt with the attackers appropriately, they would have given it a high score, but they set a fire and sent an investigation team out.
“It’s pretty good.”
Brick continued to bow his head. However, the ‘it’s pretty’ here wasn’t directed at Brick. I liked the youngest’s bold behavior.
‘Not only did I want to figure out these guys’ intentions, but I also wanted to show them their track record.’
What a reckless guy he is.
‘And yet Mayton’s name was not tarnished.’
Brick’s shattered finger proved it. I definitely accepted the debt I was owed. I liked everything from start to finish.
“That finger. “Is it very uncomfortable?”
“It’s not uncomfortable.”
“Let me make it a little easier.”
Decatra raised a finger. A small blade of wind was created at the tip of the finger. I threw it lightly.
Swoosh –
Brick’s little finger was cut off with a very quiet sound.
Tuk!
The little finger fell to the ground. Brick felt no pain. No blood leaked out.
“It would be much easier to cut it off.”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
It is much better to cut off a bone than to live with a shattered bone. It would be easy to make a rubber finger and put it on.
Brick actually felt comfortable.
‘The pain is gone.’
The throbbing pain disappeared. Although the little finger is gone, there will be no other side effects from the inflammation. Decatra’s abilities could have restored the shattered bones, but they did not. That meant Decatra respected Larsen’s decision.
“good. Your business is permitted. “It is the price of proving your abilities to yourself.”
Brick muttered softly as he left Mayton Street.
“This turned out to be much cheaper than I thought.”
* * *
Larsen, who acquired 3 billion grand, walked the ‘seeker’s path’ with Lydia. A long road of about 300 km. I traveled about 50km a day and reached the end of the ‘Seeker’s Path’ in 6 days.
“Larsen. “Where are we going?”
“Hollen.”
There are three forks at the end of the seeker’s path. A crossroads leading to the Holy Empire Hollen. A crossroads leading to Grandel, a famous martial arts resort. And the fork in the road leading to Jeokrim.
“Holy Empire?”
“that’s right.”
“Why are you going there?”
“Is there a lot to gain there?”
The first goal is to survive until age 17. This is the most urgent priority. We have to do the best we can to make it past Ma’s 17th birthday. Fortunately, there were many things arranged by writer Cha Seong-min in the Holy Empire ‘Hollen’. I thought that many arrangements could be achieved by using Cheonan and Seongjeop together.
‘First of all…’
I checked the plan. The first place you need to go is to leave the crossroads and go to the ‘Hunter’s Grave’. There is a potion there that increases the capacity of the mana circle. A special place that presents ‘capacity potions’ to travelers who meet special conditions.
I have reached the end of the ‘Seeker’s Path’. There were three forks, each with a sign.
Holy Empire Hollen.
Grandel Street.
Deposit.
Following this path does not mean that you will come to Holen, the Grandels, or Jeoklim. Because the continent is very large. This sign shows the ‘approximate direction’. Nevertheless, the reason why this sign is important is because it shows what the world uses as a ‘reference point’.
Larsen stood in front of the sign. A sign made of wood.
‘uh?’
I moved closer to the sign.
‘what’s this?’
Another letter was written underneath ‘Holy Empire Hollen’.
“Lydia. here. Can you see the writing?”
“huh!”
“Read it.”
“Holy Empire Hollen! I know the handwriting well too. “I got 100 points from the witch.”
“Below there.”
“Under there?”
Lydia looked intently at the sign. I looked back and forth. I searched hard up and down.
“What is there?”
It was the same as back then.
[Master, can’t you see anything?]
[You can’t see anything.]
Even Tuwang Magner couldn’t read this writing.
‘Why is Korean here?’
There is Hangul. But this Hangul. Strangely enough, it only appears with your own eyes. I’ve never described anything like this before.
[Leaves arrangements for Huin.]
Huin. The word later. I saw it last time too. Larsen searched his memory.
There was an inscription that said [To later generations in the letters of the greatest civilization…] .
After that, the writing was erased and was not visible.
At that moment, Larsen felt a slight pain in his chest.
‘There is a response.’
There was no reaction with the heart. The ‘Thousand Year Eomsim Gap’ that Larsen is currently wearing was reacting to this sign.
The Fire Chalice said.
[brother. This guy is eating up my mana?]
Just leave it alone.
[The mana is mine! However, I am a good listener, so I will make sure to stay still.]
[Instead, praise him a lot.]
Larsen waited for a while. The Millennium Dragon’s Eomsim Gap absorbed a lot of mana. On the outside, nothing had changed.
“Larsen? What are you doing? Aren’t we going? “The sun will fall to the ground.”
“wait.”
Larsen touched the sign. Suddenly! And white light burst out. This light was visible only to Larsen. ‘Eomsim-gap of the Millennium Dragon’, filled with mana, reacted to the ‘sign written in Korean.’ In an instant, the world turned gray.
And letters began to appear in Larsen’s eyes.
[Those who can see my arrangements are limited to those who possess the ‘Thousand Year Dragon’s Eomsimgap’, ‘Swan’s Golden Tooth’, ‘Wild Tree’s Eyes’, or ‘Harlan’s Staff’ and have ‘Heavenly Eyes’.] Larsen refers to this character
. I couldn’t understand them. The space and time have become gray, and even the letters engraved in Hangul. This is an area that the creator, Cha Seong-min, did not set.
[I will introduce myself first.]
Just like typing on a computer keyboard. Letters continued to be engraved in the air.
[My name is Kirtel.]
A legendary archmage whose name is only known to have existed during the story. It was a letter left by Kirtel. Kirtel’s arrangements continued.
