How to Live as a Half-Dragon

057. laceilla (2)

The voice that came from behind was Raycilla.

‘Oh right. Did you have an aunt?’

Hearing Raycilla’s voice, Xian hurriedly got up from his seat and turned around.

There was Raycilla with an awe-inspiring face.

“yes? What… ?”

“How did you make a circle by yourself! No, give me your arm.”

Raycilla, who took Xian’s arm and checked it for a while, said in disbelief.

“How is this possible?”

“that… Do you have any problem… ?”

“Of course there is a problem!”

To summarize Lacilla’s next words, this was it.

Like Bondi Mana Heart, the first circle requires the help of others.

That’s also the reason why the circle couldn’t settle into the body unless the magic affinity was very good.

So, in general, it is common for someone who already handles magic well to pierce that blood.

“But you did it all by yourself… .”

Without a circle, magic cannot be used.

No matter how much knowledge you have and how well you plan your spells, no matter how good your magical knowledge is, as a result, you cannot walk the path of sorcery alone.

And the fact that Raycilla suddenly asked Xian to go was an act she took knowing all this.

It was a paving stone to make Xian, who was left alone in the library, cry and cling to himself after failing to form a circle.

‘But I did it alone… .’

This was also the reason why wizards followed their masters like parents.

Since it is impossible to advance on the path of magic without the help of others, the benefactor who started the path of a wizard.

There was no reason not to follow them like their parents.

“Naturally, I became a priest, and I also got a cute disciple, assistant, and nephew… .”

Lacilla, muttering about her plans to leave, looked somewhat depressed.

It was hard to see Xian somewhere.

It was because he didn’t look like anyone else, perhaps because of his resemblance to his mother.

“uh… I’m sorry about that.”

The murmur at Xian’s apology suddenly stopped.

The desperate Raycilla suddenly lifted her head and looked at Xian.

His worry was colorless, but his face seemed to have already recovered.

“No, that is over now. Would you like to learn magic from me?”

Lacilla’s plans had changed in the meantime.

He didn’t want a cute disciple/assistant/nephew, he wanted the title of a teacher who raised the best wizard.

“That’s not bad… .”

“why? Any problem?”

Don’t have a problem.

There was no time.

In fact, because of the foreign assignment that was right in front of me, I couldn’t afford to hold on to magic.

‘But will she accept that I tell you this?’

Xian showed moderate confidence for the time being.

Hoping she’ll turn it off.

“Is that what I learn?”

“Don’t become, I’ll probably become a mage with the strongest potential in the whole society, no mage.”

Xian realized that he was mistaken about one thing.

He had greatly underestimated Lacilla’s obsession.

She seemed unwilling to let go of herself.

The desire to become a teacher who raised the best wizards was beyond imagination.

He also said, at the same time, this is a deal that Alteon has nothing to lose.

“why?”

“Wizards are always precious.”

It’s not that they aren’t trained professionally, but even if they’re from a slayer family, that doesn’t mean wizards aren’t precious.

Her argument was that there were few magic wielders around the world, so there were not enough wizards to attend.

“But I… That magic swordsman… .”

“It’s a clear waste to rot such a talent!”

Lacilla objected as if it were nonsense.

In fact, there are things that are interested in magic, but it was embarrassing for Xian, who wanted to put more weight on the Slayer side.

If this was the case, I thought I lied about my interest in magic.

Xian had no choice but to sell his mother Sarah.

“that… Actually, it was my mother’s will that I wanted to walk the path of a slayer. I’m really good at magic, but… .”

When he remembered his mother and looked like he was going to cry, the effect was truly amazing.

Thanks to the invitation of the burning Raycilla, it has subsided further.

“No, but… It’s a bit precious… .”

“sorry.”

At this point, I was about to give up, but Raycilla said again that she hadn’t given up.

“Don’t do that, think carefully. No, maybe you’ll change your mind once you learn some magic?”

First of all, it was a draft of a setting that longed for the coolness of magic, so it was quite ambiguous to cut off and reject Laceilla’s proposal.

Reluctantly, Xian nodded.

“all right. What kind of magic is it?”

“Anyway, you won’t be able to digest difficult magic right now, so let’s start with the basics.”

Xian was taken by Raycilla and moved to the research studio.

* * *

Xian, who was taken to Lacilla’s research studio, was released only in the early evening.

It was frightening that the person who found her had come and reluctantly released her, otherwise she might have had to take magic lessons all night.

“after… .”

“Are you here, young master, would you like to serve the meal to your room?”

When Xian arrived in front of his room, the maid in charge stood guard in front of him.

As dinner was approaching, it felt like the meal had been prepared in advance.

“Yes, please.”

Come to think of it, it was the moment when Xian, feeling hungry because he hadn’t eaten since lunch, was about to answer and go in.

Xian grabbed the doorknob and stopped.

“Oh right.”

“Why is that?”

Drake told me to compete as much as possible.

When he remembered what he had forgotten, Xian turned to the lady-in-waiting.

The other day, Stain said he would come find me if he told the lady-in-waiting.

“I want to meet Stein.”

“If you’re waiting for me at the gymnasium, I’ll send you a message right away. How about a meal?”

“I’ll eat in an hour or so. And did my friend go back to his room?”

As Hughes advised, he went to accompany Cecily.

Cecily, who had been forced to part before going to the great library earlier, was fortunately nearby.

“He’s still waiting inside.”

Come to think of it, I felt a presence inside, and it was indeed a great tenacity.

Xian, who thought another maid was tidying up the room, entered in surprise.

Cecily’s expression immediately brightened as she confirmed the cyan.

It’s like a dog waiting for its owner.

“I’m going to the gymnasium, can I go with you?”

“huh. But what about it?”

Cecily was already wearing the ring Xian had bought her.

By the way, I want you to do just one thing, whether you speak plain language or show respect.

“It is pretty.”

In any case, Xian led Cecily to the gymnasium and gave instructions.

“So, can I watch it from here?”

“Yes, it will be of great help to Cecily as well.”

I’m glad I got it right.

It was nice that I didn’t have to explain it a couple of times.

When Stain arrived at the gymnasium, he picked up a wooden sword after talking with Cecily and was about to move.

“I said it didn’t matter anytime, but I didn’t know you would call me today.”

Seeing the sauce smeared on his mouth, it seemed to have come out while eating.

By the way, unlike the cold image, do you have an appetite… ?

break a little

“From now on, you will see it every day, so know it.”

“I have no intention of looking at it. The results will remain the same.”

Also, I can’t afford to eat.

Stain picked up a wooden sword and said, just like yesterday.

“Come if you are ready. He said he would return before the stew cooled down.”

Unlike yesterday, Xian acted cautiously.

‘It can’t be like yesterday.’

I rushed in without thinking and was knocked out with only one counterattack.

I didn’t even see how he was beaten.

“I’m glad you learned it all at once.”

“I’m not a complete loser.”

He responded appropriately to Stain’s provocation, but Xian’s head was complicated.

‘Should I use non-yeongyeong?’

Sian quickly stopped thinking.

It wasn’t because I couldn’t hear a good sound from writing it.

Xian knows that he is not in a position to worry about such things when he is worried that he will be kicked out of the house immediately if he does not win the confrontation.

There was simply one reason Xian didn’t use it.

‘I have to save my secret weapon until the very end.’

In fact, there are a bunch of people who are going to pass stain right now.

It was appropriate to use non-shot after all preparations were in place.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Xian’s behavior after he finished his thoughts was no different from yesterday.

‘If I don’t approach it in the first place, nothing will happen!’

Without a word, he rushed in and swung his sword.

Today too, the sword that is too empty to block.

“I’m sorry, what I said earlier is cancelled.”

Xian’s eyes widened.

‘come!’

It is the same trajectory as yesterday.

It was the moment when he saw Stain’s sword and tried to block it.

fast.

Xian, who was hit in the head on the opposite side from yesterday, collapsed.

Stain went back to the cradle in the corner and tried to put down the wooden sword, but was startled.

“for a moment. Where are you going?”

That’s why I heard a terrifying voice behind me.

* * *

A wooden sword fell over his head.

Stain was taken aback and took a defensive stance.

damn

Right before it touched his head, he grabbed the wooden sword and kicked Xian away.

Stain confirmed that Sian landed safely after both feet flew off.

It was because it was hard to believe apart from the fact that I had passed the crisis.

‘The attack was read?’

It’s hard to believe, but given the circumstances, there was no other way to explain the current situation.

If it wasn’t for that, it would have been enough to pass out just like yesterday.

Since it was read, it was hit by a miss, and since it was hit by a miss, it was more reasonable to assume that the power was not properly applied.

“I will confess. To be honest, I ignored you. but… .”

There was sincerity in Stein’s eyes.

“It will be different from this moment on.”

As if he hadn’t made a mistake twice, Stain’s wooden sword, which rushed like light, struck Xian at once as if it were splitting it apart.

Xian blocked the head attack.

However, Stain’s wooden sword finally hit Xian’s body, not the wooden sword.

“Keugh… .”

It wasn’t the end there, but the end followed toward the staggering Xi’an.

Just like yesterday, a wooden sword hit the back of the head.

dump.

As Xian collapsed unconscious, Stain cleaned up his wooden sword and turned to Cecily in the corner.

“Looking at it, I feel like I’m going to take on a challenge anytime, anywhere. Please tell them to compete here every day at this time without any hassle.”

Stein left the gym like that.

As he left, Cecily approached Xian.

Cecily smiled lightly as she tidied up the fainting Xian’s hair.

“Still, I guess I was recognized today.”
