Chapter 494
“But it seems they haven’t informed you yet.”
“Because the current weak Mage Tower can\'t understand it. It\'s obvious that they\'ll try to bite you, saying something about morality or recognition.”
Francena is sneering, and instead of this thesis, the heterogeneous madness that surrounds her is only revealed more clearly.
“But if my disciple Gralevel becomes the next Mage Master! ?No one can disapprove of this!”
“...that sucks.”
I murmured coldly at her argument and scorned her.
“Isn’t that groundbreaking? If this is the case, theoretically, in just 5 years, we can create 8th class... no, any number of wizards beyond that.”
“Then I\'ll ask the other way around. How many mages are discarded in the process?”
Francena\'s eyes narrow.
Because that\'s the worst problem she\'s deliberately ignoring.
“According to your theory, one mage must sacrifice that quality to raise one circle. Then, how many people did you devote to raising that level?”
Imagination went easy.
I thought of the situation that Lumie talked about many years ago when a lot of students were broken.
What if the reason is not an accident or lack of management, but something else?
What if the real ringleader still remains?
I was sincerely scorned.
“You don’t even deserve to be called a teacher.
No, even as a human being before that, it is a disqualification.”
“...Oh my gosh. You would be so angry.”
“It\'s like making disciples prey for other disciples. It seems so lowly.”
“Your expression is really harsh. Can\'t I say this?”
Despite my point, Francena said as if she still didn\'t feel any remorse.
“It is a noble sacrifice for development.”
“...they\'re playing.”
“no. It is undoubtedly a noble sacrifice. I was convinced after seeing that the current mage lord was defeated by the previous warlock master. The current mage tower lacks strength.”
Francena clenched her fists.
“Why do you lack strength? It is because there is no sincerity. Willingness to use any means. They are weak because they do not have the spirit to take sacrifices for granted.”
“so? Is that all you want to say?”
“It seems that a day and a night will not be enough to spread my theories and beliefs.
But there won\'t be that much time.”
Francena, without hesitation, takes out a small staff from her bosom and points it at me.
“How many noticed? Arel-sama’s disciple too?”
“no. I don\'t know Dia. I didn\'t deliberately teach you.”
Maybe someday you\'ll notice
No, I think you\'ll probably notice.
I didn\'t say anything nonsensical on purpose to keep him focused now.
“And neither Frances nor your apprentice know.”
Under the circumstances, he would have been taken advantage of without knowing that level at all.
“Then, how many people do you know?”
“Whoop whoop, that’s right.”
Francena raised her staff even higher as if satisfied with it.
oh i\'m scared Ha ha ha ha ha.
you\'re funny
“you. If it\'s now, I can only ask for responsibility and end it.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. As you can see, Lord Arell is really stupid. Could it be that you came here believing only one identity’?”
It\'s not a false statement.
In such a closed environment, there are plenty of ways to erase evidence.
“...leave it.”
“what. With that said, I... Um? Arel Ernesia?”
Only then did Francena realize a sense
of incongruity.
“...Now, who are you talking about?”
She realized that my gaze was not on Frances or herself, but behind her.
But the moment she looked back.
ping!
It sounded like a stringed instrument being plucked once.
A large hole pierced Francena\'s lungs.
“...Huh?!”
What passed through her chest was a very sharp magic bullet.
I didn\'t shoot.
In any case, it flew from Francena\'s back.
Francena collapsed on the spot and confirmed with her own eyes who had fired the magic bullet.
“...Lu...Mie?”
another of her pupils.
Lumie, a disciple who didn\'t even pay much attention.
A small remnant of mana remained at her fingertips.
She understood the meaning, but before she even had time to ask, she vomited blood and collapsed on the spot.
the end of the master.
Rumie, who finished that with her own hands, eventually withdrew her hand.
I burst out laughing on the spot.
“This is why I can’t use incompetent elders. It\'s the same until the end Kyahahahahahaha! It was really ugly! Master?”
“...I can\'t even say it\'s good taste with empty words.”
I frowned and looked at Francena, who had already stopped breathing.
I looked at Lumie who had transformed as if she had become a completely different person.
“Is that your natural inclination?”
Lumie tried to put on a stupid smile like she had shown before, but shook her head as if she gave up.
I guess there\'s no need for acting.
“…That’s it. Anyway, really useless. I was nagging him to do a thorough crackdown on the workshop, and then he himself suffered.”
Lumie, who completely revealed her true colors, openly showed her annoyance.
“I thought I would get caught sooner or later. No matter how hard it was, I thought it would be difficult to avoid those eyes.”
“Right. Were you the parasite hiding in the magic tower?”
nothing to ask
Lumie also seemed to have no intention of hiding what had happened.
“is it so. Well, let me say hello once this happened.”
She introduces her name in an obviously mocking tone.
“Lumie SLd. Would you say ‘in charge of seizing the Ernesian Mage Tower belonging to the Caduceus\'? Due to the nature of our alliance, we don’t go around digging around for business cards, so please understand.”
“...they\'re in charge of seizing.”
It means that there is no intention to hide the meaning.
“The purpose is to interfere with the mage tower running at the cutting edge of your human technology.
Well, I also test various theories.”
“Was it you who cheated on the elder Francena?”
“It\'s not difficult, is it? To the extent of playing an incompetent disciple and giving it a moderate amount of inspiration.”
After all, she induced Francena to pursue her sinister ways instead.
In addition, he intentionally played a disciple who had no talent and was persecuted to encourage Gralevel to become immersed in his own strength and ideas.
Somehow, I wondered if that kid had gone astray, but was he being used without even realizing it?
“Thanks to that, he seems to firmly believe that he will become the innovation of the Mage Tower. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! What kind of face would he make if he found out that the path he believed in was actually built by eating away the talents of his colleagues he cherished so much!”
“oh? Were you offended? Did you feel bad\'? You\'re funny. If you\'re a reincarnated person, you know, right? How can I make it stronger? If it were me, I could pursue something more efficient. Isn\'t that what moves us?”
“Your years have gone beyond that?”
“Half is a hobby. It’s best to have fun while working.”
“I agree with that.”
joy.
It doesn\'t matter.
I nodded and agreed.
Pod!
In one go, he went behind her and punched her back... the center of her spine without hesitation.
“Ahahaha?”
“But it’s your pleasure, not mine, right?”
If there is a parasite in the Mage Tower anyway.
My job is to get rid of it.
“Crush up.”
My power collided with the barrier that was activated behind her, and Lumie was blown away without hesitation.
She crashed into the bookshelf and was buried in a pile of books.
However, Lumie didn\'t get that much of a shock, so she just trembled and got up.
“...Oh my gosh. It\'s going through quite a bit!”
“You mean you’re doing quite a bit?”
Since it\'s under the jurisdiction of Ernesia Kingdom, which I keep my eyes open for, of course, I wouldn\'t have sent a kid who could be easily killed.
It got pretty annoying.
‘...Did I send Shen out for nothing?\'
It\'s the right thing to leave someone who seems to be such a hassle to fight like this.
Hey, isn\'t that guy coming back soon?
“where. I put up barriers so they wouldn\'t be seen... Now all attention will be on the two youngsters...
I checked to make sure I didn\'t miss anything.
Because I don\'t intend to let this fight ever leak.
yeah i didn\'t miss anything
Now, even if we fight, we won\'t find out.
“Oh my! I thought you were quite unmotivated.”
“Do you have enough motivation to catch those annoying flies?”
“Oh my!”
However, Lumie only shows a suspicious attitude and does not shrink at all.
Looking at his capabilities, he probably isn\'t an idiot who doesn\'t know the odds, but he\'s showing confidence.
Do you have a corner to believe in?
“Then I also like my current life. Shall we try a futile defiance?”
Lumie spread her arms and took out the source of her confidence.
Numerous mana circles developed around her.
Numerous circles that can never be thought of as her own are revolving in sync with her heart.
Mana, amplified hundreds of times, violently oscillates around her.
Mana, which is too much for humans to handle, is precisely under her control.
“If I had this much strength, I would be able to fight you, right?”
“...Tch,
that\'s a really nasty hobby.
It is truly a terrible hybrid of the wizarding world.
“Right. Is the research that raised that level for that?”
“Yes, it is a simple application of this applied to him.”
“What about the ingredients? Looking at the number of those circles, wouldn’t it be enough to have only my disciples in the Mage Tower?”
“There are idiots all over the world who want to learn magic.”
Ooh
is it?”
I don\'t want to hear more than that.
Without hesitation, I undid all internal strength restrictions and expressed my hostility.
“Let me ask you one thing. What is the purpose?”
“Do you think you can teach me?”
“Then ask the corpse.”
Without hesitation, I stretched out my fist.
Against him, Lumie also countered by fully operating the circle.
Soon, two huge forces collided within the shielding barrier.
“ruler! It\'s not intentional, but the disciples are fighting from above, so let\'s break up with the masters this time!”
However, this is a battle that will never be known.
On the other hand, the floor where the match to decide the candidate for the owner of the tower is in full swing.
The flashes and shocks that seemed to shake the arena had just begun to subside.
It\'s because the bombardment of the level has stopped.
He, too, was not accustomed to such relentless artillery fire, and he let out a breath in a cold sweat.
“Huh... you\'re persistent...
but he clicked his tongue in disgust.
“…How did you hold on?”
The point that Gralevel is staring at.
Dia Reki, the opponent he had to defeat, was still standing there, where the deflagration had just begun to clear.
No way I could have survived that much shelling.
It was a little, but I couldn\'t help but be surprised.
However, soon after assessing her condition, Grebel smiled confidently of victory.
“But you seem to be pretty overpowered.”
Dia herself doesn\'t have much to say.
Apparently, it seemed that he had used up most of his mana while enduring the bombardment.
