How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives

This outing was made entirely at Leo’s request.

That’s why Leo also decided the destination.

“I’ve seen it in a book, but I heard there’s a place called ‘Daesurimsan’ near the capital?”

Leo asked, looking at Drexla.

Drexla nodded.

“Yes. It is a tourist attraction in the kingdom where strange magic works.”

Great Forest Mountain.

As the name suggests, it is a large jungle-like mountain.

Actually, it doesn’t make sense.

A mountain is a mountain, and a jungle is a jungle. It’s like a jungle mountain.

However, Daesurimsan could only be expressed that way.

‘Because it’s a very unique natural spot created by nature, where trees and animals and plants in a dense jungle grow wild in a small mountain.’

A place that looks like a compressed jungle inside a mountain.

Leo knew this great forest mountain well.

That’s right, I’ve already been there several times while playing various jobs.

‘If you play as a wizard, you must come several times, and even if you don’t, it’s a place you should visit at least once.’

All kinds of medicines, magic reagents and materials that are helpful to wizards.

In addition, there are various elixirs that you can find if you are lucky.

Not to mention wizards, it is a must-visit place no matter what class you play as.

And Leo was thinking of taking the best of the elixirs hidden in the great forest.

‘Come to think of it, the red witch should have gotten this too… This is how things turn out.’

Leo laughed involuntarily.

red witch. Countess Hermery.

If you play in the future, you can see her saying that she luckily found the elixir in Great Forest Mountain.

In order for her to rise to the ranks of the world’s strongest in the future, the magic of the great forest will play a big role.

‘Come to think of it, I wondered why she, an imperial citizen, obtained the elixir of Great Forest Mountain near the capital of the Kingdom of Rome… It would make sense if he had been dispatched for a while as the head of the Casein Guild branch.’

He probably went to Great Forest Mountain often while serving as the head of the Rom Kingdom capital.

Great Forest Mountain had a good influence on magicians even with simple tourism.

Leo smiled bitterly.

‘This is true. Unintentionally, he continues to do bad things to the red witch.’

He ousted her from the position of head of the capital city early on, and made the trap using blood bombs useless.

In addition, now she was robbed of the elixir she should have obtained.

‘what. I can’t help it. Because I have to live with me first.’

Right now, he thought he would die if he didn’t become a great wizard before he was 20 years old.

If you take care of everyone else’s situation, your own life will fly away.

‘If I get a chance later, I’ll have to reciprocate or something.’

Although that is also the story of when he rehabilitated the villain and recruited her as a colleague.

So Leo shrugged and rationalized himself.

The wagon that Leo, Elise, and Drexla rode on arrived at the Great Forest Mountain.

Although it is located outside the capital, it was very close, and it was possible because the road was well paved because it was a tourist attraction.

“Wow! This is the Great Forest Mountain! So many people!”

As soon as Alice got off the carriage, she jumped up and down and shouted.

Daesurimsan Mountain is also a place where many travelers stop by thanks to its beautiful scenery.

The entrance to the mountain was crowded with people.

“miss. It is dangerous to act like that. You may fall.”

Drexla politely warned me from the side.

The title was outside the palace, so I called her a lady, just like before.

“Why? I also train hard, so I won’t fall over with something like this!”

“… … .”

Her words left Drexla speechless for a moment.

But I couldn’t let it go.

It wasn’t anyone else, but the princess screaming while jumping like that.

I’m not a teacher of etiquette, but as an escort driver in charge, it was difficult to keep an eye on him.

“It doesn’t work though. You have to be polite while others are watching.”

“Hey… . Drexla has too many nags… . I’m disappointed. I won’t talk to Drexla anymore.”

Alice jerked her head and turned.

However, if you look closely, there is a playfulness in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised.

It’s been a long time since I came out and had fun, and I was joking around.

“Ah, lady… .”

Drexla was stumped.

With the princess so upset, he was at a loss as to what to do.

“sister. You should listen carefully to Drexla.”

Leo, who was worse off, helped him by his side.

Then Elise stopped playing and nodded.

She now listened to everything Leo said.

“If Leo says so… Okay. I’ll be quiet, Drexla.”

“You did well, lady.”

Saying that, Drexla slightly bowed her head to Leo with a look of gratitude.

“Brother Leo. As you wished, I came to Daesurim Mountain.”

“yes.”

“Is there a specific place you want to go to?”

Drexla asked curiously.

Daesurimsan is a tourist attraction, and the nearby recreational facilities are very well equipped.

Among them, there were many places that were decorated beautifully and would be loved by children.

To Drexla, Leo answered with a stern expression.

“yes. I want to climb the mountain once.”

Drexla nodded.

“That’s a good idea. Since you came to Daesilimsan, you should go up to the entrance and take a look. However, it is important to note that it is not accessible by carriage.”

“no. Not the beginning.”

Leo shook his head.

Then he opened his eyes and raised his fingers to the sky.

“I’m going to make it to the top!”

* * *

A sleeping elixir in Daesilim Mountain.

Spiritual Medicine SS-class item, Mannyeon Mana Hemp.

As the name suggests, it is an elixir that has grown by receiving the energy of this spiritual mountain for ten thousand years.

Like a very old elixir, it has not been discovered until now because it hides behind a protective barrier.

But getting it isn’t that difficult.

It was a problem because the barrier was so secret that it was undetectable, but once discovered, even a Leo-level wizard could break through and enter.

the problem is… .

“Huh… Heo-eok… .”

“Hee hee. I told you to train hard. Didn’t you listen, Leo?”

Leo gasped for breath and climbed the trail.

It’s so hard to take one step on a wobbly leg.

His breathing was labored and his lungs seemed to burst.

‘This damn body… .’

yes.

He knows where the elixir is and knows how to obtain it.

It is safe to say that there are no monsters or other dangers on the way.

But it is at the top of the mountain.

That was the biggest problem.

To Leo, who is a piece of physical strength, this really felt more difficult than the danger of death.

“Ugh. young master. The scenery is also beautiful here. Why don’t you just look around here and then die around here?”

Drexla said with a worried look.

I haven’t climbed even a fifth of it yet, but I’m so tired, how can I take a picture of the top?

So, a compromise was proposed.

Of course, it was absurd to Leo.

‘How did you get all the way up here, and go back like this because you’re crazy?’

Then, didn’t he really go through hardships without any results?

Leo rolled his eyes and shook his head.

“no! I will definitely rise to the top.”

“Um… . Okay. Or should I pick you up?”

Drexla asked cautiously.

In a way, it seemed like an impolite question, but Leo seemed to be having a hard time.

However, Leo rejected that too.

“It’s fine. I’ll try it myself. Thank you though. I’ll tell you when it gets harder.”

“then… All right.”

Drexla backed off.

Then, unlike Leo, I walked a little in front of Alice, who fluttered around even during the mountain climbing.

When you have a goal in front of you, you gain a little bit of strength.

It meant seeing them in front of them and following them.

Seeing that, Leo licked his lips in regret.

‘Whoa… . Being carried on the back is pride and pride, but I can’t do it because there’s no progress.’

It would be comfortable to be carried by Drexla, but now he wasn’t just climbing.

As he climbed the mountain, he increased his stamina, while concentrating on the flow of mana flowing through the Great Forest Mountain.

‘indeed. Daesilimsan is said to be a must-visit place for magicians. I can see why.’

Upon entering Daesilimsan, you can feel the unique atmosphere of mana unique to this place.

The natural flow of mana was meandering like a torrent.

Leo controlled his heavy breathing.

He felt the mana floating in the air and figured out how it flowed.

His affinity for mana and genius talent interpreted this natural mana.

And beyond that, he even reproduced it on himself.

– Ugh!

All humans have a natural flow of mana in their bodies.

Leo slightly changed his mana flow.

If you recklessly twist the flow, it’s perfect to become a ruin.

But with a little twist, the way I got it from this Great Forest… .

-Paang!

Mana burst out from under the soles of Leo’s feet.

It’s very weak, but my body moved more comfortably.

‘It’s harder than I thought.’

A method of using mana to assist one’s own body.

The attempt was good, but the results were not very satisfactory.

However, unlike Leo, there were people who were horrified to see it.

“I… No, Bocchan! Gee, what now… . How did you do it?”

In a startled voice, Drexla asked from the side.

He doubted what he had just seen.

‘Did you kick the ground using mana?’

A technique that concentrates mana under the soles of the feet and explodes them.

This is a magic application technique that must be learned in order to fight at high speed, and was the exclusive property of knights.

‘It’s a good training method for a knight, and it’s a technique that can only be imitated by concentrating on at least a few years… .’

How to use the body, how to handle mana and process it according to the flow of the body.

In addition, you need to know the correct way not to damage the body’s mana circuit, and you must learn to release it at an appropriate intensity through years of experience.

But Leo, only 7 years old, showed it right in front of his eyes.

Not even a knight, but a wizard!

Leo shrugged.

“Is it okay if I just do it?”

“… … .”

“Whoa. Hard. But from now on, I think I will be able to follow along a little easier!”

-Paang!

-Paang!

Leo kicked off the ground a little softer, diligently following them up the mountain.

* * *

“Huh… Whoa… .”

Leo lay face down on the floor.

It’s the face of royalty, nothing like that.

I just wanted to lay this heavy body somewhere.

‘Wow… I almost died.’

After gaining some enlightenment, I was able to get help from mana for mountain climbing.

However, mountain climbing is still an exercise that consumes a lot of stamina.

Even with a trashy body like Leo, it was really hard to die.

‘Maybe if I hadn’t kicked the ground using mana, I might have died on the way up.’

It was a hellish experience to the point where I thought that.

But other than that, the rest of the party had relaxed faces.

Elise seemed to be breathing a little, but she was fine, and Drexla was not disturbed at all.

“Wow… . really pretty.”

“indeed. I heard that the scenery seen from the top of Daesurimsan Mountain is so magnificent. That’s what I heard.”

“Drexla, is this your first time here?”

“Yes.”

“What happened?”

“In the meantime, I was only focused on training as a knight, so I didn’t go anywhere much. But since I came today, I can see why people travel.”

Alice and Drexla chatted and looked at the surrounding scenery in harmony.

Leo smiled and got up from his seat.

Drexla looked at Leo as he got up, looking worried.

“Are you feeling better?”

“yes. it’s kinda fine now I’m going to walk around here and take a look.”

“You can’t go far.”

“Okay.”

Leo began to walk around, babbling.

Drexla didn’t hold back much.

The top of the mountain wasn’t that wide anyway, so if something happened, he could run straight ahead.

Leaving Drexla’s eyes behind him, Leo started to do his own business.

‘Where are you… where are you… .’

A summit full of people and stones, dirt and trees.

Leo looked around closely, with eyes almost piercing the ground.

‘Darker-colored soil than elsewhere. And the four-leaf clover that grew next to it.’

A hidden barrier created by Mannyeon Manasan.

Once you find it, you can enter into the Barrier of Man-Yeon Mana-Three.

The place where the dark soil and four-leaf clovers grew was the starting point of the barrier.

How long had it been since I had been looking at the soil and tiny weeds for a while?

– Took.

As I wandered around, I bumped into someone.

“Oh, sorry.”

Leo, who reflexively apologized, was startled.

It’s not often that the royal family apologizes first, but the attitude I had when I was a Korean came out without my knowledge.

relieved at the same time.

It’s because he’s not Prince Leo now, he just came out as a young boy from a rich family.

Like the last time, I dyed my hair and touched my clothes, so there was nothing to be found out about.

Leo looked up and saw the person who bumped into him.

“oh. He’s a cute little gentleman. it’s okay.”

With a soft voice that was pleasant to hear, her red hair flowed like a waterfall.

Leo opened his eyes wide for an instant.

“… … !?”

“yes? Why do you look like that?”

‘No crazy. Why is this woman here… ?’

red witch. Countess Hermery.

she was in front of me
