How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives
Chapter 30
“what’s the matter?”
Opening the carriage door, Leo said.
“Lowering. Dangerous. Get inside and we’ll take care of it.”
Drexla stood in front of Leo with a hard expression.
“What. I should be aware of the situation.”
“It is a monster. It is an attack by a group of werewolves.”
“A werewolf?”
Leo slightly tilted his head and looked over at Drexla.
A road paved so that wagons could pass.
Beyond, among the reeds, appeared wolves walking on two legs.
-Kreurre… .
-Cre… .
About 2m tall. The muscles swollen all over the body were vicious, and brown hair covered the whole body.
Its teeth looked sharp enough to chew through steel, and above them, two bloodshot eyes were looking at humans.
“How dare you show your teeth. Like a fucking monster.”
Drexla spurted death and again covered Leo’s face.
Leo looked at him curiously.
‘Werewolf… .’
“To see those filthy weapons from the Great War era. It could be the work of the lycanthropes.”
Drexla muttered with a serious face.
Leo shrugged.
“Well. Maybe not. I heard that there are quite a few werewolves that survived and reproduced after the Great War.”
great war.
The period when humans and other races fought each other like crazy.
Countries rose and fell, and countless men and heroes lost their lives.
It was the ‘five heroes’ who are being revered right now that led to victory in the war that could have completely destroyed the human race if they went wrong.
‘Actually, the reason why Karst the Great, who was only a slightly talented wizard, was able to found the Kingdom of Rome was because of that great war.’
It is said that there were many followers who followed him because of his overwhelming appearance in the war.
And the werewolves in front of me right now.
Their nickname was Fake Lycanthrope.
‘Unlike the lycanthrope, a heterogeneous species with intelligence, a weapon born only for killing.’
Werewolf was a weapon created by lycanthropes to win the war.
Compared to the real lycanthrope, it was much weaker, but its advantages were clear.
It’s just that he’s a wild, instinct-driven monster.
The damage they inflicted on civilians during the Great War was staggering.
But the war was over, and the lycanthropes signed a treaty stating that they would no longer create werewolves.
“There is Daesurim Mountain nearby. Even if they aren’t traces of the Great War, they could have evolved from ordinary wolves contaminated with the aura of the Great Forest.”
“that’s… It certainly could be.”
Abnormal phenomena often occurred near Daesurim Mountain, which exudes strange magic.
Drexla nodded as if she had heard it.
Then, he looked at Leo with amazement.
‘The intelligence is definitely amazing.’
I know that Leo is excellent because I’ve seen him so many times, but I feel it again every time I talk like this.
Even if his insight or understanding is beyond the level of his peers, he has gone far beyond that.
“Anyway, I get it. If you are resting in the wagon, we will take care of it right away.”
“why me?”
Leo tilted his head.
And then he walked out of the wagon.
“Lowering!”
“Drexla. Of course, I am also a member of the royal family that the Royal Guard must protect, but I am a worthy third-class wizard.”
That too, at the end of the 3rd class, is a mage on the verge of becoming a mage.
‘It’s the first battle with a monster. I can’t just watch this in the wagon.’
To see the end of magic as soon as possible, you need to experience and grow more.
I couldn’t miss this opportunity.
“I’ll join too.”
Leo’s eyes lit up.
* * *
Drexla was worried.
‘Lowering… .’
Leo is an outstanding wizard, and I’ve seen it well over the past two years.
But fighting monsters is different.
I don’t know if a child can survive in this scene where life is rampant and madness flows.
However, convincing Prince Leo now is not enough time.
-Kreurre… !
The werewolves have already come close.
It was just before the battle started.
Inevitably, Drexla made up her mind.
“Lowering. In that case, you must never get out of my back.”
“Sure.”
Leo nodded.
He knew that life was precious, so he had no intention of doing so.
I was only going to provide adequate support behind the scenes.
“And that person.”
Drexla pointed at Celise.
“Yes? Me?”
Celise didn’t realize at first that she was talking to herself, but replied a beat late.
“Yes. Do you have any weapons you know how to handle?”
“Oh, no.”
Celise shook her head in embarrassment.
It was natural.
She had only learned skills to serve the royal family all her life, so she had never even held a weapon.
“I knew it. Then take this for now.”
Drexla handed her a dagger.
“Even if you don’t know how to handle a sword, there’s a big difference between having a weapon in your hand and not having one. At least it will give you peace of mind.”
“ah… thank you.”
Celise bowed her head.
And then.
– Kreurreung!
– Kyaaagh!
Werewolves rushed in and the battle began.
* * *
“synthesis!”
“Stop! Never send even one of them back!”
The knights took out their swords and shields and stopped the werewolves.
-bang!
-Quad deuk!
A shock sound spread.
However, the knights did not retreat even one step.
Rather, he attacked the weak werewolves.
-Suddenly!
– Kwajik!
Blood splattered everywhere.
All were werewolf blood.
In fact, it was a natural result.
The knights belonging to the Royal Guard, selected and selected from the Kingdom of Rome.
On the other hand, werewolves living in the wild were numerous, but were not comparable in quality.
– Damn it.
Above them, Leo’s magic was scattered.
Cold air surged across the pavement and froze the surrounding ground.
– Kreuk?
-Kyaaak!?
In a short time, the coefficient of friction changed to zero.
The werewolves that were rushing in lost their balance and slipped.
The knights did not miss the opportunity.
“It’s an opportunity you created!”
“End it!”
Werewolves are known for their explosive physical abilities and sense of balance.
No matter how much you slip, you can quickly find your center.
What happened to them was an extremely short gap.
However, the knights captured the moment perfectly.
– Kwajijik!
-Suddenly! Awesome!
Due to the blow of the knights who rushed in an instant, the Werewolves collapsed spewing blood.
Leo, who was watching from behind, stuck out his tongue.
‘This is why wizards travel with knights. It’s not a joke.’
Leo didn’t use a lot of mana or powerful magic.
It was just a light shot that would have been helpful at the right moment.
However, before he could land a fatal blow, he was devastated by the knights.
In boxing, the opponent fainted with just a check jab.
A combination of a knight and a wizard.
Most of the games were aimed at solo play, and it was the first time I saw a scene like this in a game, so it was quite surprising.
‘no. There must be a reason for that, but in fact, I probably didn’t even have to step out.’
Because they are royal knights, their skills are considerable.
It wouldn’t be as fast as it is now, but the werewolves would have been enough to deal with with just the knights.
Leo let go of his nervousness, hoping that a proper battle would unfold.
“Rush!”
“They dared to attack the lowlands! Don’t let even one of them go back alive!”
Now, the knights left their defensive positions and approached the werewolves.
It also took care of more than 90%, and the purpose was to perfectly kill those who dared to target Prince Leo.
Leo followed after him, leaving a little distance between them.
It was to see clearly until the end of the battle.
Drexla thought the battle was almost over, so she didn’t stop Leo from recklessly staying near the wagon.
The strange thing happened then.
– aaah!
One of the werewolves, who had been thought dead, jumped up from the floor and reached out to Leo like lightning.
‘Tsk. Was it that he was still alive even after suffering such a wound?’
Leo clicked his tongue as he saw the guy aiming at him.
Even though his heart was pierced by the swords of the knights, he was still moving.
Indeed, one life force is like a very tenacious werewolf.
“Lowering!”
Drexla hurriedly turned around and reached out her hand.
However, it was sudden, and the timing was tight because the distance was so far away.
In a situation of crisis, Leo was not frightened.
The brain power and cool-headed reason expressed through characteristics and talents came up with the optimal response method even in this situation.
-Pass!
Magical power rose from the palm of his hand and was quickly sprayed forward.
The guy will be turned into an ice statue before he even touches Leo.
But at that moment.
“I can’t do that!”
Selise, the handmaid who stayed by Leo’s side.
She blocked Leo’s way.
Leo opened his eyes wide in embarrassment.
“What are you doing… !”
I knew at a glance what Celise was trying to do.
I was thinking of throwing myself in to protect Leo.
However, contrary to her thoughts, Leo was not in a crisis, and he could have responded alone.
Rather, she intervened, which made it very embarrassing.
It seemed that Celise would be attacked first before her own magic could reach her.
‘It can’t be helped.’
After Leo clicked his tongue, he changed the magic he was using.
After scattering the mana that was squeezed for attack, he caught it and created an ice structure formula.
– Damn it.
Ice rose from Selize’s front and wrapped around it like a shield.
– Big!
bang!
Werewolf’s attack hit the ice shield.
Leo was relieved.
Because Selise, who was protected from the inside, was safe without a hair on her head.
Leo raised his hand, intending to take care of it before he targeted Celise again.
However, Celise moved faster than that.
After passing the shield and approaching like lightning.
-Hook!
She stabbed the dagger she was holding into the werewolf’s heart.
“… hahahaha.”
Sellies breathes heavily and looks at the dying werewolf with bloody eyes.
“uh… ?”
Drexla and Leo, who were hurriedly approaching, looked at Celise in surprise.
* * *
Although there was a small accident, the royal family’s carriage, including Leo, moved toward the Marquis of Gesen again.
However, during that schedule, there was something added.
“Is this how you do it?”
“… you’re right.”
“It’s my first time learning swordsmanship, but it’s more fun than I thought.”
Celise smiled softly as she raised her sword.
The courage and movement she showed when Leo was in a crisis situation.
It was nothing out of the ordinary.
If Leo hadn’t written the formula for freezing, Celise would surely have been killed by the werewolf.
She also knew she was going to die.
When Leo made a shield and survived, a normal person would have lost his legs and collapsed.
However, Celise’s reaction was unusual.
He instinctively pointed his dagger at the Werewolf’s gap.
The momentum to extend a sword in a situation where one’s own life was in danger!
He said he was taking the sword for the first time there, so it might be a coincidence, but he aimed accurately at the heart.
It left a deep impression on Drexla.
So, when I had free time in the middle of my travel itinerary, I tried lightly teaching swordsmanship.
The results that emerged were shocking.
“… Drexla. It’s because I don’t know much about swordsmanship. How can someone who is learning a sword for the first time wield it so neatly?”
Leo asked with a puzzled face.
To Leo, who was just a beginner, Selize’s swordsmanship looked quite good.
Drexla, who answered, was also dumbfounded.
“… Normally, you would never do that.”
“Then what is that?”
“well.”
Drexla shrugged as if she didn’t know.
Then he added words carefully.
“… At least among the prosecutors I have seen in my 34 years of life, no one has been able to do that.”
“Are you a genius?”
“Yes.”
Leo looked curiously at Selise, who was swinging the sword.
* * *
After the werewolf’s attack, there were no other enemies standing in the way of Leo’s party.
Leo spent most of his time in the wagon, reading magic books or meditating with his eyes closed, and Celise learned swordsmanship from the Royal Guard knights every break.
The trip was flawless until the end.
A few days passed like that.
– All right, all right.
“Lower Leo Asian Rom Karst has come to visit! Open the castle gate-!”
Leo’s carriage arrived at the Marquis of Gesen.
