Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 76
The Youngest Son of the Magic Family Episode 76
“The beginning of a great journey has begun. Huin.”
Holy Grail grumbled.
“You senile old man! “I will definitely pull out all your beard.”
Of course, the current Kirtel is not the real Kirtel. It’s not like we’re having a conversation. So you can’t hear the Holy Grail’s words.
“By now, our cute Songsongi is probably screaming in pain.”
“Who is Song Song? “This body is great….”
“They must be joking and saying that this body is the great Holy Grail of Transcendence.”
The Holy Grail could not speak. Kirtel of the past has read all of the present Holy Grail.
“That sucks.”
Kirtel smiled.
“Anyway, Huin. If my prediction is correct, you will probably be walking the path of the devil, but not the path of the devil.”
“….”
It wasn’t wrong. In fact, it is difficult to consider magic fighting techniques as the true path of magic. It’s much closer to martial arts, and Larsen is currently using mana similar to fighting power. It was difficult to consider him an orthodox wizard.
“Let me explain briefly. “It is impossible to create a body after the magic is in place.”
“But it is possible to create a body first and then equip it with magic.”
“The fact that I was able to find myself here means that I laid the foundation.”
Various explanations followed. Larsen did not fully believe Kirtel’s explanation.
‘Was there a setting like this?’
In the first place, the character Kirtel itself was never established in detail. The more I listened, the more amazing the story became.
“…To summarize, the human body is finite and cannot contain all power within it.”
No matter how excellent a human being is.
Even if it has the main character’s special abilities, such as sacral retardation.
Nevertheless, as long as we are human, there are limits. So the method Kirtel came up with was to transplant ‘properties’ somewhere other than the body.
“The Holy Grail will help.”
The original protagonist, Kashin Seid, also obtains the Holy Grail. However, this Holy Grail has never served as what Kirtel calls an ‘attribute storage device’.
‘Maybe it’s an artifact that suits me much better than Kashin.’
Holy Grail grunted.
“Tsk. “I know who will listen to you.”
As he spoke those words, Holy Grail’s body was engulfed in flames. The fire is raging! It bloomed and then disappeared. Larsen could feel it.
‘Even if all attributes can be handled, the most familiar energy to the Holy Grail is fire.’
Didn’t it first appear as the Holy Grail of Fire?
“So the fire attribute has been added now?”
“I am great. “It already has all the attributes.”
“wait for a sec. It’s a completely different story. “How on earth are you talking?”
It has no mouth or vocal organs.
“Shouldn’t it be strange that the Holy Grail moves with will?”
“That’s true too.”
In this fantasy world where magic is rampant and servants and maids hide their powers, how can a cup speak?
Kirtel waited quietly, as if he had expected them to be bickering like this. Larsen asked again.
“anyway. Then let me change the question. “Am I able to use the fire-related powers of the Great Transcendence Holy Grail?”
Using non-main attribute magic is extremely inefficient. To put it to the extreme, 5-circle magic has only the same effect as 1-circle magic. It consumes as much mana as a 5-circle spell, but the effect is actually 1-circle. This is an overly inefficient use of mana.
“huh. I really hate this, but this attribute stone does that. “I can develop one of the many attributes I have and synchronize it with my brother.”
Kirtel spoke at perfect timing, as if he had read the entire flow of this conversation.
“I believe everyone understands by now. The first attribute to appear would be fire. Huin will be able to use that attribute to learn elemental magic of the fire attribute. “I have prepared the soil, so now it is up to the next generation to grow and harvest the crops.”
Kirtel’s appearance became blurred little by little.
“Oh. “I almost forgot one thing.”
Kirtel’s toes disappeared. Then, even the knees disappeared.
“Because it is an attribute incorporated into the Holy Grail, it will not be discovered by others. It’s a great advantage. “Because you can hide your compatibility.”
The upper body was gone. And soon it turned into powder and dispersed.
“After some time has passed, look for the next arrangement. If you follow my footsteps, you will achieve a lot. “If possible, it would be nice to find the footsteps of my dear friend.”
For Larsen, meeting Kirtel felt like a dream. Before I knew it, the Holy Grail had disappeared and melted into my heart. Larsen could feel a little of the feeling of the Holy Grail melting into his heart.
“you. It’s a pity, isn’t it?”
The voice of the Holy Grail was heard.
[What what what! I am the great Holy Grail. I don’t know how you feel.]
I felt like I regretted breaking up with Kirtel. After Kirtel disappeared, the Holy Grail felt a little depressed.
“Your name was Song Song.”
[Please don’t call me such a childish name. I am the great Holy Grail of Transcendence. It is a noble being that does not deserve such a name.]
“Okay. “Song Song.”
[Irritating!]
I say it’s annoying, but the Holy Grail seemed quite enjoyable. I guess you could say it’s like a puppy that found its true name.
‘Being able to hide the fact that I have acquired the fire attribute is a really great advantage.’
The power of 7 must be visible, but the power of 3 must be hidden. But that’s the same for the main characters in novels. Extras like yourself are actually better off showing the power of 3 and hiding the 7. Isn’t this a world where the main character never dies no matter what he does, but the supporting actor’s head gets blown off if he makes a mistake? Until you have great power to protect yourself. It is best to hide your strength as much as possible. That’s how supporting actors survive.
‘But… what about the Geumho tribe?’
For a moment, it felt like I was hypnotized. There were definitely Geumho tribesmen nearby, but they did not move or speak after Kirtel appeared. It feels like I’m not even breathing.
“Mirang?”
Only then did Mirang begin to move. All Geumho tribe members were like that. It felt as if it had temporarily stopped. But Mirang was a little strange. Mirang’s tail rose straight up toward the sky.
Gugugung-!
There was a tremor in the ground. It was a small earthquake.
The altar began to collapse. The pile of stones collapsed, and several streams of golden light leaked out from within.
All of the Geumho tribe gathered in the square trembled. Their eyes began to turn golden. The same was true for Elder Bakuya, who was next to Larsen.
“Elder Bakuya?”
“Krrr.”
Elder Bakuya’s size grew in an instant and he became a tiger the size of a house.
‘what?’
Elder Bakuya, who had suddenly become gigantic, returned to his human form. However, there was a lot of hair growing on the body. It looked like tiger fur. Overall, it seemed to have gotten a little bigger.
Elder Bakuya took a deep breath.
“Whoa.”
His breath took on a slightly golden hue. Elder Bakuya placed his hand over his heart. I felt my heart pounding.
“As the altar collapsed, the restrictions on the Geumho tribe disappeared.”
Byakuya, who had been speaking informally just a moment ago, became polite. Larsen asked back without realizing it.
“Restrictions from the Geumho tribe?”
Elder Bakuya’s face became slightly flushed. I’m in a state of excitement. However, it seemed like he was suppressing his excitement as much as possible.
“The Geumho tribe was a race powerful enough to dominate the world in the past.”
“….”
“But when the great chieftain Tutanka suddenly disappeared, ‘God’s restrictions’ began to bind the Golden Tiger tribe.”
It was said that the physical capabilities of the Geumho tribe were limited. It is said that ‘God’s restrictions’ weakened them.
“God’s constraints are gone.”
Many Geumho tribe members cried out in unison.
Kuaaaaang!
A tremendous roar filled this place. Like an eyelid being peeled off, something covering the sky was peeled off.
‘I can see the sky.’
I see the sky. I could see the sky just now. But it is a slightly different sky.
‘A sky where time and space are not separated.’
So, the original sky. The sky of the ‘Dragon Mountains’ was visible. As the altar collapsed and the restrictions on the Geumho tribe were lifted, the barrier that protected them also disappeared. The Dragon Mountain Range was filled with the roar of a huge tiger.
Byakuya said.
“But the Jinhu tribe is not perfect.”
“Why? “I heard that restrictions have been lifted?”
“Because it has no tail.”
The tail is the Golden Tiger’s greatest weakness. So, they cut off their tails when they are babies.
“Now that God’s restrictions have disappeared. The Geumho clan needs a tail to be whole…”
At that time, Byakuya made a discovery.
“tail?”
Mirang still had a tail. One of the few individuals with a tail. Especially female. Elder Bakuya approached Mirang. Mirang was not afraid of Elder Bakuya approaching. I felt like an unknown power was boiling throughout my body.
“Since ancient times, the Geumho tribe has had a king.”
The Geumho tribe does not form groups. But a symbolic king existed. Although it does not have any special power, it is an entity that truly represents the Geumho tribe. The kings were the honor and pride of the Geumho tribe, who did not use the expression ‘we’.
The representative figure is the great tribal leader Tutanka.
“Except for Chief Tutankha, all emperors were female.”
It was said that the Geumho people were born that way. A matriarchal society. A beast race born with a stronger female body.
He looked at Mirang and said.
“There is nothing sufficient to become an emperor.”
“My me?”
The entity that was rejected because it was too weak was Mirang. It was no different from the shame of the Geumho warriors. But suddenly he was a king.
“It seems like God’s restrictions were particularly severe on you. “I don’t know why…”
But Larsen could guess why.
‘Mirang was weak. That’s because [God’s restrictions] were the greatest. Because the adults who guarded Mirang were killed, they couldn’t even cut off the tail. So, he could not enter the village and lived wandering around unknown cliffs. So you were able to meet me.’
It is difficult to dismiss all of this as coincidence.
‘If it’s a scenario someone carefully designed.’
What if someone planned and arranged a much more detailed and detailed scenario than the writer Cha Seong-min?
‘That would make more sense.’
The person who created that scenario was none other than Kirtel. The only explanation could be that Kirtel, a person from at least thousands of years ago, looked into the very distant future and planned this plan. It’s too contrived to attribute everything to chance.
Byakuya said loudly.
“me. “Bakuya of the Geumho tribe pledges blind cooperation to our benefactor who has lifted God’s restrictions.”
Then, numerous members of the Geumho tribe repeated the same words with their own names.
“me. “We pledge blind cooperation to our benefactor who lifted the restrictions of the god called Gate.”
“me. “We pledge blind cooperation to our benefactor who freed us from the restrictions of God called Redura.”
The number was at least 100. And one more.
“me. Mirang pledges blind cooperation to our benefactor who lifted God’s restrictions.”
Larsen nodded. We received an oath of cooperation from a great race called the Geumho tribe. They will always be on your side.
‘Is this Kirtel’s arrangement?’
Who on earth was he to plan and even implement this arrangement thousands of years ago?
‘I’m going crazy.’
A director who is better and more meticulous than the writer. Larsen shook hands with each of the Geumho tribe members. It took over an hour just to shake hands. Everyone was so strong that their arms almost fell off.
And the Geumho tribe dispersed. This is because there is no longer a need to live in a village. Even if they could not overwhelm Evelia or Persia, they at least regained the ability to escape.
Only one person remained, Mirang, by his side.
“thank you. Larsen.”
“Aren’t you going?”
Mirang looked at Larsen blankly. The Geumho tribe is an independent entity and often moves alone. But it was strange.
“Strangely, you want to go together?”
“okay?”
From Larsen’s point of view, there is nothing bad.
“Then let’s go together.”
“I’ll make it special.”
“As long as you don’t eat it just because you’re hungry.”
Mirang laughed loudly.
“If you’re really hungry, just rip off your arm and eat it.”
“Don’t tell creepy jokes.”
Anyway, Mirang and Larsen escaped from the Dragon Mountains.
‘uh?’
But it was strange. On the way back to Hailan. Smoke was rising from afar. It was not a natural fire.
‘Fire caused by magic?’
It’s definitely fire. It seemed like the whole of Hyran was engulfed in fire. The smell of that fire was somehow familiar.
‘It is the flame of Persia!’
Larsen started running.
