How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives

Chapter 41

“… Leo.”

King Biden opened his eyes wide.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Leo answered while looking into his eyes.

Since it was a public position, instead of the usual title of father, he was telling him to convey the king.

While our eyes met for a moment, it was King Biden who spoke first.

“Can not be done. I don’t know how the hell I came to know, but that’s not a place for a kid like you to go.”

“But, Your Highness. I deserve it.”

“Qualification?”

“Yes. If I, on the verge of becoming a mage, are not qualified, then who is qualified?”

Leo’s words hit the inside of the conference hall.

The aristocrats murmured.

“If it’s right before the mage… no way… Prince Leo has reached the end of the third class?”

“Such nonsense… .”

Prince Leo is only 10 years old now.

As long as you succeed in initiating magic at that age, it is basic to hear the voice of a genius.

Even what kind of stage is the 4th class.

Numerous wizards are unable to take a single step in the 3rd class and crumble as they realize the limits of their talent.

However, Leo had come close to that when he was only 10 years old.

King Biden asked again.

“The level of a mage is right in front of you? really?”

“I’m not the one who dares to speak lies in front of His Highness the King.”

Leo nodded his head confidently.

King Baiden, who had been watching it quietly, soon waved his hand once more.

“Still no.”

“Majesty!”

“Listen to me. Certainly, reaching that level at your age is unprecedented in all of history. But you are still too young. No matter how high the level of magic is, enduring the devastation of the battlefield is a different story.”

Leo could sense the deep concern in King Biden’s voice.

He doesn’t want his son, who is only 10 years old, to go through a war full of blood and carnage.

Leo hesitated for a while because he felt that, but he soon regained his composure.

“Then, Your Highness. I will prove it.”

“Proof?”

“Yes.”

Leo clenched his fists.

“I’ll go west and show you I can do it!”

His eyes were burning.

‘I have to convince my father somehow. Because I must go west.’

In Leo’s mind, an incident that had happened a few days ago came to mind.

* * *

a few days ago.

When Leo heard from the Marquis of Getsen that the warlocks wanted to meet him, he immediately followed him.

“This is it. After subduing them just in case, I imprisoned them in my mansion in the capital.”

The Marquis of Gesen guided them to the Marquis’s mansion in the capital.

“Did they not rebel?”

“Let’s try.”

The Marquis of Gessen chuckled.

“They would have known. I dared to make such an offer to the Marquis of the Kingdom. Did you think you would be able to return safely?”

They made a bold offer, but in return they were captured by the Marquis of Getsen.

Even so, the level of the Marquis family’s troops is quite high.

Running away from the moment I encountered the knights and wizards I was searching for was something I couldn’t even dream of.

“Please go in.”

The Marquis of Gessen led me into a room in the mansion.

When I opened the door and entered, I saw three people in total.

They were seated in chairs with their hands and feet tied.

“The whole body was bound and even the mana restraint was filled. I can guarantee you that you won’t do me any harm.”

“I guess so.”

Leo nodded.

And even if they weren’t restrained, they wouldn’t have been a threat.

‘All three are 3rd class.’

Even though they were in the same 3rd class, Leo was confident of winning even if they were free.

It was because he was at the end of the realm, and he even had a double attribute.

“yes. Did you guys ask to see me?”

Leo got to the point in a solemn voice.

One of the warlocks’ eyes lit up.

“Are you the prince of the kingdom of Rome who subdued Jacob?”

“hit.”

Leo nodded.

“Why did you ask to see me using magic tools as bait?”

“That’s what our master wanted, not me.”

“master?”

Leo asked, but the warlock didn’t answer.

Instead, he turned his eyes white, then dyed them black.

“Oh! The restraints should be working properly… !”

The Marquis of Gesen was startled by the change and stood in front of Leo.

Because I knew it was going to be an attack.

However, the restraint was not released.

Instead, an inaudible metallic sound came out of the warlock’s mouth.

＜Kuhk. Hello, low.＞

“you… .”

A completely different voice.

Leo seemed to know what that was.

“You changed the familiar magic a bit. Did you use it on a human, not an animal, and then forcibly access it?”

＜Hoo. do you know this You’re amazing. I’ve heard rumors that Prince Leo is a rare genius, but it’s not a false rumor.＞

When the warlock heard that, he chuckled.

Then he said

＜I will formally introduce myself. My name is Logan, the master of the Black Tower of the School of Medith.＞

Black Tower Lord Logan!

A great giant came out.

As evidence of that, the eyes of the Marquis of Gesen, who was listening from the side, widened.

However, Leo said without raising an eyebrow.

“That’s rude. What kind of self-introduction are you talking about when you can’t even show what you see to the royal family?”

＜Khehehehe. Sorry about that.＞

It was a voice that wasn’t apologetic at all.

Leo clicked his tongue.

“Tsk. It became. So, tell me your business. Why did you ask to see me?”

＜… Whoops. You really aren’t surprised to hear my name.＞

The black magician thought about it for a while, perhaps thinking it was unexpected, then continued.

＜I saw the scene where you captivated Jacob.＞

“You saw it? how? Wasn’t there anyone else there?”

＜Originally, all warlocks belonging to my school are under the spell of my familiar. The same goes for Jacob.＞

“Then why did you send the tracking party? Wouldn’t it be enough if I just manipulated it like the guy who occupied it now?”

It was a natural question.

However, Logan shook his head.

＜This type of complete possession requires the consent of the target. Otherwise, only sensory sharing is possible. It is also limited to a small number of senses.＞

“Ahh… If so, seeing all the battles at that time means that you really just watched.”

＜Yes. Whoop whoop. But, it was amazing. that beam of light. Is it the legacy of Karst the Great?＞

“… … .”

Leo thought while managing his expression for a moment.

‘How did you know?’

Even if it was the Black Tower Master, there was no way he could recognize the Orb of Light at a glance.

Regardless of whether Leo was taken aback or not, the Master of the Black Tower continued.

＜You must be wondering how I knew that. It’s simple. I also have the legacy of Karst Great. I got it by accident.＞

“… Right.”

＜hehehe. The low magic skills were interesting, but I was especially impressed with the way you accessed the Legacy and recognized the user.＞

Logan grinned.

Leo thought while managing his expression.

‘Is he also the black pagoda owner? It wasn’t enough that I recognized the Orb of Light at first sight, I even figured out how I took possession of it.’

I tried to share Jacob’s senses, but it must have been limited.

He is also one of the leaders of the Black Magicians.

said Leo.

“therefore. Did you call me to say you had a good time?”

＜It can’t be. I have a request for you.＞

“ask?”

＜Yes.＞

Logan nodded once and said.

＜We, the School of Medith, want to move to the Kingdom of Rome. If you help me with that, I’ll give you the legacy of Karst the Great that I have in return.＞

“… … !”

Leo frowned at the unexpected suggestion.

“Why are you suddenly coming to our kingdom?”

＜It’s hard to live in this harsh West any longer. It’s not unusual for monsters to run amok. Perhaps news will reach the capital city where you are located soon.＞

It was quite shocking news.

They said that no one else, but a black tower owner, wanted to escape the monsters and enter the kingdom.

Of course, deep in the western part of the continent, there are monsters that even warlocks cannot deal with.

However, there is no need to make such a request, since you will not run into each other in the slightest.

‘Then there’s a situation I don’t know about.’

Thoughtful, Leo shook his head.

“no. That is unacceptable.”

＜… kuhh Is the negotiation broken?＞

“Not even that. Let’s change things up a bit.”

＜… … ?＞

“I will go west myself and solve your crisis situation. So hand over the legacy.”

＜… … !＞

Leo grinned.

* * *

present again.

Leo recalled the conversation he had with Logan, the Black Tower Master, from a while ago.

‘It’s not a big deal, it’s to help the Medith School migrate. But I can’t just leave the problems in the west alone.’

As I pondered over Logan’s proposal, I guessed something about the wild west monsters.

To find out more about this, he had to go west himself.

With that in mind, I purposely broke into the middle of the monthly meeting.

It was to keep my father from speaking twice.

“Sigh… .”

King Biden stared at Leo and sighed.

“Hey Leo… .”

What should I do with this troublemaker?

Of course, King Biden knew.

‘If that guy broke into the middle of the meeting like this, it must mean he’s already prepared for that.’

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Just by looking at his eyes, he seems determined.

If that’s the case, there’s nothing good about forcibly blocking it like this.

“good.”

King Biden nodded.

Leo smiled faintly.

However, the talk is not over yet.

“However, prove your skills as you say. That he is not a child, but a wizard worthy of being dispatched to the battlefield.”

“Please leave anything to me.”

“You speak well. There is an appropriate task at hand. After the disappearance of the Cassane Guild, various organizations have sprung up in the world behind the capital. Among them, there are those who are suddenly called. Originally, I was going to send the knights to sort it out, but I’ll leave them to you.”

“… Majesty.”

Then, the answer came out from the side.

It was the Marquis Merverde who was present at the meeting.

“Wouldn’t that be too dangerous? Prince Leo is only 10 years old, and I think this is too harsh a mission.”

His eyes were filled with a light of concern for Leo.

To kill the back alley guild.

10 years old is too young to deal with those cowards.

However, King Biden was adamant.

“Not harsh. But the battles to the west will be harsher. It’s absurd to say you’re going to the battlefield when you can’t solve these things.”

“… … .”

It was so true that the Marquis Merverde could not refute it.

Leo nodded.

“I also agree with Your Highness. We will definitely succeed in our mission.”

Leo left those words, bowed politely, and left the conference room.

* * *

Leo moved quickly.

I got out of the palace in less than an hour.

Drexla and Celise were with him.

“Lowering. Will it really be okay with just the two of us? We can call more knights if you ask the Royal Guard.”

Drexla asked with a worried face.

It was unreasonable to bring dozens of knights with him like when he defeated the Casein Guild in the past, but he would still be able to receive sufficient support.

However, Leo shook his head.

“no. If that’s the case, even if I succeed in my mission, it won’t help much in my evaluation. You don’t think the knights have solved everything.”

This isn’t just a mission, it’s something you have to prove your qualifications for.

Leo overwhelmingly wanted to succeed.

“And I believe in you guys. Just the two of you is enough.”

“Lowering… .”

Drexla and Celise both made a thrilled expression at the same time.

Do you believe in yourself like that?

As a knight, there is no reward like this.

“All right. I will definitely protect you.”

“Me too.”

The two of them answered as if they were swearing.

Not only Drexla, but Celise also trained hard for the past year.

Because her talent was so outstanding, the current Selize was not far behind even compared to the official article.

Drexla’s skills also improved.

“great. Let’s go.”

Leo and the others moved quickly.

After passing through the central square of the capital, we passed into the slum district.

The sanitary conditions in the streets have deteriorated and the poor and the poor have begun to be seen.

Selize asked as she proceeded, wary of her surroundings.

“By the way, low. What exactly is the mission?”

The two immediately followed Leo because he had a mission, but they did not hear any specific explanation.

I just knew I had to deal with something on the underworld side.

Leo explained as he moved his steps.

“With the Cassane Guild gone, my father wants to tear the underworld to pieces.”

As the absolute No. 1 Casein Guild collapsed, several small organizations were fighting each other.

The King appropriately intervened and made them fight among themselves.

“If a large organization comes out and integrates, it will be easy to manage, but it is obvious that it will become more corrupt. That’s why he intends to have small organizations spread out and notice each other.”

“okay.”

“But one of them, the Nerian Guild, suddenly ate the surrounding organizations and grew in size. They are completely against the wishes of their father. That’s why you want to get rid of it before it unites the underworld.”

Drexla and Celise nodded at Leo’s explanation.

Even so, the gaze continued to look around.

There were more suspicious people now.

They saw Drexla in a knight’s outfit and were dodging, but they didn’t take their eyes off her.

“understand. So, are you going to invade the Nerian Guild?”

“right.”

“Where is the location?”

“I heard before you came. I already figured it all out. We literally just have to deal with it.”

Then Leo stopped.

In this slum with only run-down houses, it was in front of a four-story building that looked fine.

‘I’m glad you’re not far away. I started to get short of breath.’

Cursing at the damn body as always, Leo looked at the house.
