How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives
Chapter 22
10,000 years.
An elixir that grew up at the top of Daesurim Mountain, a sacred mountain blessed by nature, and ate its energy for a very long time.
Its efficacy is above the SS level, and just eating it is a restorative medicine that guarantees a solid life as a wizard.
Leo carefully dug up the soil and collected Mannyeon Mana Hemp.
Elise poked her head out with a curious look from the side.
“What’s this?”
“Eating is good for the body.”
“this? ugh It doesn’t look appetizing.”
Eris frowned as she looked at the 10,000 mana hemp in Leo’s hand.
She’s right.
From the outside, Sam’s appearance didn’t look that good.
The root of a large plant, with small roots and dirt, looks very unappetizing.
“It’s fine. I won’t ask my sister to eat it.”
Of course, Leo didn’t care.
What does taste matter?
‘Even if it tastes like poop, it’s something you should eat with your eyes closed.’
Leo raised his hemp and glanced at Drexla.
Drexla still wasn’t paying much attention to this side.
It seems that he knows how to play in the dirt.
That’s the case, Mannyeonmanasam looks just like a root plant on the outside, and there’s nothing special about it.
It’s not like it’s spewing out unusually unusual mana or glowing.
For this reason, Drexla just watched with a worried look on whether she should tell her to keep her dignity as a member of the royal family or let her enjoy her freedom (?).
Leo said as he carefully brushed off the dirt on the hemp.
“My sister will get me another one later, so I’ll eat this one.”
“Ugh. You just eat that tasteless looking thing?”
Eris frowned at Leo’s words and took a step away.
“I’m fine, so eat all of them. never ask for it.”
Scared of her words, Leo took a big bite.
– Wow.
A refreshing feeling spread throughout the mouth.
He rolled his eyes.
‘Wow. It’s not a joke.’
A torrent of mana that started in the throat and spread deep into the stomach.
Leo quickly focused his mind and guided him to accept the mana.
The huge turbulent mana is stored in Leo’s body one after another.
Some people will not accept this.
My body would explode from overload, or most of it would spill into the air.
But not Leo.
His penalty traits are related to physical movement and stamina, and have nothing to do with the body’s mana sensitivity.
Rather, if you look at his wizard-like physical ability to simply use magic, Leo was a very blessed body.
A body that was able to spend a lot of mana without much difficulty.
It is truly the perfect body for a magician.
‘Of course, I have no choice but to stand still and shoot magic.’
On the battlefield, even if you don’t like it with a few big magic shots, your location will be exposed right away.
If you don’t move fast, it’s perfect to be a target for enemies as it is.
‘If I want to survive there, I’ll have to carry a bunch of talented knights as escorts.’
Or, by achieving a level of magic that is completely unapproachable, he became an existence that did not matter whether or not his location was revealed.
With that thought in mind, Leo gradually accepted the enormous amount of mana from the ten thousand years of mana.
– Ssssss.
Leo’s eyes sparkled with firearms.
It doesn’t just increase the amount of mana.
The inspiration that had been dormant was awakened by accepting the enormous amount of mana.
A flash of realization struck me in an instant.
It is accompanied by a high-level understanding of the law of mana composition and the realm of magic.
The mana absorbed a moment ago was released from Leo’s body again.
Draws a strange spell in the air.
– Damn it.
The silver magic circle shimmered faintly and wrapped around Leo’s body.
A faint frost appeared around him for a moment and then disappeared.
Leo smiled.
‘Now self-defense is activated.’
A second-class spell that is registered with Arcane Magic Frost Breath.
<Self-defense>.
The effect is simple.
Unrecognized attacks are defended with ice, regardless of the magician’s intentions.
‘I finally put a safety device on this sunfish-like body.’
It is said that the human brain can only recognize 10% of the information it receives through the five senses.
Everything else is thrown away, and this <Self-Defense> utilizes such unconscious information.
A skill that reads and defends even hostile attacks that you are not consciously aware of.
Of course, it is a difficult ability to develop with an acquired talent because it uses unconsciousness.
However, Leo was confident in this field.
Aren’t you the one who has the characteristic of ‘best brain rotation’ with an understanding level of 10!
In the field of the unconscious, it will be unmatched.
‘It will serve as a lifeline enough to save me from a fatal blow.’
Leo put on a satisfied expression.
Besides, this self-defense was only the beginning.
Based on the increased amount of mana, he will learn arcane magic one by one in earnest.
Excellent brain, will and passion, and enough mana.
All triplets are equipped.
Now the only thing left to do is go up like riding a roller coaster.
That was the moment.
A familiar voice was heard.
“oh. Have we met again, little gentleman?”
“… … !?”
red witch. Bellana, Countess Hermery, was standing there looking at Leo with a smile on her face.
A faint red light bursts from her eyes.
“By the way… I just happened to feel a peculiar aura.”
– Knock-knock.
She flicks her index finger.
Leo’s gaze went to the tips of his red nail polished fingers.
he gulped.
‘Damn it! Why is this woman here again?’
Didn’t you just go down the mountain?
No, since when have you been watching me?
Such thoughts run through my head.
Maybe it was because Leo’s expression hardened.
Belena smiled softly.
“Little gentleman. Why are you making that expression with that handsome face? Have a laugh. I know who will eat it.”
“… … .”
“By the way, the wave of mana I felt just now. I’m not just an ordinary kid… What is the true identity of our young master?”
Belena grinned.
Leo felt sweat running down his back.
‘… Did you notice the mana that flowed out when you ate Mannyeon Mana? Or did you see the spell that briefly appeared when self-defense was first activated?’
I don’t know where she saw it.
Leo clenched one fist.
He was ready to raise mana at any time.
‘Still, the body is full of mana, so it’s reassuring.’
It was on a different level from when I had dealt with a few mana particles before.
It might be possible to fire the same magic dozens of times in a row.
‘If the Red Witch tries to kill me now, will I be able to survive?’
Once alone, it’s impossible.
However, with Drexla defending the front and herself and Elise supporting from the rear, it might be possible to hold on while making a fuss.
‘Then someone around will help, or security guards will be dispatched.’
Of course, even if there is a report, it will be late because this is the top of the mountain.
The key is to hold on until then.
‘Fortunately, the Red Witch and I are on the good side… .’
I know what kind of magic she uses.
If you attack based on that, it’s worth trying to hold on.
And did he feel Leo’s feelings?
“You little bastard. Are you serious? hehehe. What are you thinking?”
The red light flowing from Bellena’s eyes began to grow thicker and darker.
That was the moment.
– Clap.
“stop. Get there and leave.”
Drexla, who had approached before I knew it, blocked the gap between Leo and Belena with her sword lightly drawn.
A weak and peaceful expression was nowhere to be found, and a face oozing cold air.
The energy of the red witch and Drexla exploded and collided in the air.
-Patchut!
Victory was evident.
Compared to the leisurely Red Witch, Drexla’s expression changed seriously.
No matter how much he was a knight in the royal guard, the opponent was bad.
Countess Hermery.
She is a genius mage of the empire and has a reputation as the next generation court mage.
“… Who are you?”
Drexla asked.
To meet such a strong person here.
‘no way… An assassin targeting the royal family?’
The possibility of that would be low, but as an escort, you should always keep the worst possibility in mind.
Drexla tensed the muscles of her whole body so that she could pull out the sword and wield it at any time.
an imminent situation.
Leo analyzed the current situation with a cool gaze.
‘Actually, it’s hard to deal with the Red Witch even with Drexla. After all, she is a person who has reached the absurd level of being a 5th-class wizard in her late 20s.’
The best wizard in the Kingdom of Rome is Marquis Merverd.
As an old man, his realm is currently level 6.
However, Belena reached the absurd level of being in the 5th class in her late 20s.
Of course, there may be no progress in that state for decades, being blocked by a wall.
But doesn’t Leo already know the future?
‘The red witch is 7th class beyond the 6th class. He’s the one who becomes an ‘octa class’ mage.’
In other words, it means to become one of the strongest among human wizards!
Even that is not a fully blossomed possibility.
‘Belena is frantic to track down the culprit who killed her husband. So after growing up to a certain extent, rather than growing up, he goes mad with revenge.’
In the background of Count Ermeri’s death, there is a dirty trick.
Knowing that fact later, she becomes the head of the Catsain guild and acts as an enemy of the Empire and, by extension, an enemy of humans.
‘But what if she had spent all her time developing and developing her talents without it?’
Maybe he broke through the 8th rank called the wall of demons.
It is said that there were only three archmages in history.
Her name may have gone up in that 4th name.
As much as that, Belena was unique among humans in terms of talent alone.
Even if it hasn’t fully bloomed yet, it’s impossible to deal with Drexla alone.
The terrain wasn’t good either.
‘I don’t know if it was a narrow space blocked on all sides, but that’s not the case here.’
The top of an open mountain.
It is the optimal space for a wizard to fight against a knight.
With his fists clenched, Leo concentrated his mind so that he could use magic at any time.
But what was feared did not happen.
Belena was the first to withdraw her power.
she grinned.
“sorry. Since I’m a wizard, I can’t come to my senses when I see strange phenomena. You made a fuss about it.”
Then, looking at Drexla, he politely greeted her.
“I will formally greet you. She is Countess Hermeri, who came as a representative of the Empire’s regular exchange negotiating group.”
Then, this time, Drexla’s eyebrows twitched.
I was just trying to stop Prince Leo from being oppressed by some kind of bullying boat… .
‘A representative of the Empire’s negotiators? That’s also Countess Ermeri?’
He, too, had heard rumors.
A woman who is called the next-generation court mage of the empire.
A cold-hearted genius who, despite being a countess, held onto the family in place of the dead count.
Come to think of it, it also matched the appearance I had heard through rumors.
A beautiful woman with long red hair.
This put Drexla in trouble.
Earlier, I didn’t introduce myself because I thought it was someone I’d only seen once.
‘But if it’s at the level of Countess Ermeri, there’s a high chance of meeting her at the palace.’
Since he came as the representative of the envoys, the king might introduce his own children.
If you were introduced to Leo at that time, it wouldn’t be a very good feeling.
Eventually, Drexla also slightly bowed her head.
“My name is Drexla of the Royal Guard of the Kingdom of Rome.”
“Aha. You were a knight of the Royal Guard?”
Belena’s eyes sparkled.
Then, his eyes turned to Leo and Elise.
“Then these guys… .”
“This is the 8th prince of the Roman Kingdom, the 8th prince Leo, and the 7th princess Alice Mama.”
“… … !”
Countess Hermery’s eyes widened.
indeed. They said that even if they were disguised, they could see a subtle elegance that could not be hidden.
Several emotions passed through her eyes.
His eyes were fixed on Leo.
‘I’m sure he was at the spot where the blood bomb exploded… Wasn’t Prince Leo and a Knight of the Guard named Drexla?’
In order to find out, at most I volunteered for the negotiating team and came back to the Kingdom of Rome.
I hope we can meet like this
Count Hermery looked at the two of them with interest.
