Great Wizard Transcending with Mythology

Episode 2

It really work

It was so absurd that i ended up laughing without even realizing it.

Time regression.

I really went  back to the past.

“fuck the odds.”

As Ji-won said, a 0.7% chance was indeed worth it. The fact that I’m here is evidence enough.

Quickly, I surveyed my surroundings to assess the situation.

Strangely enough, distant past events came to mind as vividly as if they had just happened.

Is this also the effect of regression?

“The knight kneeling before me is Repentir Ivan. It’s been a while.”

Judging from the situation, it seemed like I had regressed to around the age of fifteen.

“…Tsk.”

This leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

The knight kneeling before me, Repentir Ivan, was a loyal subject.

I was just not wise enough at this age to distinguish between loyal subjects and traitors…

“Your Majesty, what are you saying…?”

This guy.

Gaul Zylo, the chief of magic corps.

A middle-aged magician looking at me with an extremely treacherous expression.

“Ah, isn’t it Gaul Zylo, who is not only a high-ranking magician of the 7th rank but also the chief of the main magic corps of the family!”

I exaggeratedly flattered him.

It’s a time I’ll never forget.

It was the beginning of my downfall.

– Haha, I’m truly grateful for your stupidity, Your Majesty!

The burning castle walls, the dug up  graves of my parents, the loyalists of family in shambles…

The one who mocked me at the center of it all.

“Nice to see you, sir!”

“…Uh, yes?”

It was a grudge I couldn’t settle. This time, I can kill him.

Let’s take a look around. It seems that most of the family’s vassals are gathered here.

I recalled the loyalists and traitors from my memories.

It wasn’t difficult.

Not many stayed by my side until the end before the regression.

“I understand for now. One of the knights of the knight order of blue  Shield Knights did something wrong, so i  have punish him with my own hands?”

“Yes.”

It’s natural for Silo to nod his head as if it’s obvious. I snorted at him.

“Why?”

“…What?”

Silo looked dumbfounded.

“It’s not completely broken, just a scratch. Besides, isn’t it shameful to say that the family’s skills can’t even fix one scratch? And it’s just a commoner, after all.”

A smirk formed on one side of my mouth.

“Even though His Majesty the Emperor recently has been more concerned about the people than anyone else, are you trying to ignore His Majesty’s orders,?”

“That, that’s not it!”

“Then shut up. Don’t make a big deal out of nothing.”

But Silo wasn’t one to back down so easily.

Even though I said that much, he didn’t back down.

“Your Majesty, however…”

“Sigh.”

This won’t do.

I thought I should deal with him and checked my physical condition.

“About third rank for now.”

Compared to before, it’s ridiculously weak, but it’s enough.

“Using a small mana interference for a surprise attack won’t be difficult.”

Hmm.

I chuckled as I prepared the latent mana in my body.

.

A mana training method created with the help of Namgoong Moo-Woon and  ji-soo-won survivors of destroyed world.

Generally, using a new mana training method on the spot is considered foolish.

Thunk!

But It’s okay. That’s one of the advantages of the

But that alone might not be enough.

To interfere with the mana of a mage much higher than me, I need additional means.

“I guess a observation will do.”

The observation is an ability that naturally comes with the

As the name suggests, it’s eyes that can see through the mana flow of others.

As I activated the observation, the colors around me changed and my vision was rearranged around the mana.

And then, I confirmed the ‘gap’ in the mana flow swirling around Gaul Zylo.

“Know your place, Silo.”

With those words, I manipulated the mana around him to disrupt the flow.

Instantly, there was confusion in Gaul Zylo’s mana circuit, and the flow of mana stopped.

Not missing that moment, I lightly tapped his knee.

Thud!

Gaul Zylo’s knee easily hit the ground in a pathetic manner.

“… … uh?”

All the vassel looked at him in surprise.

The Zylo himself was looking down at his knees with an expression of disbelief.

“What the hell happened…?” … ?”

“Don’t open your mouth any further. “Even my patience has its limits.”

I pierced the mana crack of Silo, who was trying to get up.

Slurp!

The Zylo’s knees bent again and his expression became distorted.

Of course, I have no intention of giving you time to understand. I have no intention of punishing here as he thinks.

“The punishment of Repenter, a knight of the Order of the Blue Shield, is dismissed. The knight commander is right. “repenter’s response was reasonable and is not a reason for punishment.”

“Huh, but, Your Highness… … !”

cried the Zylo desperately.

“Repentir ’s punishment this time will definitely be your Majesty’s… … !”

“what?”

I tilted my head while looking at that guy. With cold eyes, as if asking what he was talking about.

“What do you want to say?”

“… … !”

The Zylo closed his mouth at those words.

Only then did he realize his mistake.

“Speak, Zylo Silo.”

They called him by his title rather than his title of ‘Magic Troop Commander’.

You wouldn’t be so stupid that you wouldn’t understand its meaning.

“that… … .”

The Zylo, who hesitated with a pale face, soon lowered his head in front of me.

“Oh, it’s nothing. It was a simple slip of the tongue … … .”

“Then that’s it.”

At fifteen, my authority has not yet been undermined.

No matter how much the zylo has done behind the scenes, he still can’t criticize me openly.

“This concludes today’s meeting.”

I immediately declared it closed.

Since it’s just after regression, there’s a lot to think about.

Still, I have to make sure I finish it.

“Commander of the Knights, and Sir Repentaire.”

I said looking at them both.

“You two, please stay for a while.”

* * *

After Kyle Grave decided to dismiss Repenter’s punishment, Silo and other vassals left the Great hall  as if driven out.

“No, Your Majesty, why on earth are you doing this?”

One of the vassals said as if he couldn’t understand.

“Surely, Repenter, it wasn’t your highness who indicated his intention to punish you for that. But why on earth… … !”

“Shh. Stop it. We are inside the castle. “No matter how much it is between us, there might be someone who hears it.”

“It’s because I feel sorry for you! Perhaps your Majesty is misinterpreting our loyalty… … !”

The vassal said, pounding his chest as if he was frustrated.

“We are only giving him advice because we are worried about her Majesty, who inherited the title at a young age. How can you not know our feelings?”

“Enough of that.”

As he was about to continue speaking, a low voice was heard.

Gaul Zylo, leader of the Magic Troops.

His family has served Grave for a long time, and perhaps thanks to this, he was able to rise to the position of leader of the magic corps in his generation.

What Gaul Zylo did as soon as he became the leader of the magic corps was to create his own force within Grave.

“Zylo Silo, no matter what… … !”

“Baron Relay is not wrong. It’s still sunny. “He likes not to do anything that would get him caught.”

“ah.”

At those words, the vasselwho had been making a fuss just a moment ago closed his mouth.

‘That kid.’

The zylo’s eyes were cold and sunken as he silenced the surrounding vassel.

‘What on earth  did he  they do?’

They can not understand.

He is a 7th rank wizard.

If you are ranked 7th, you are quite high up in the Magic Tower, and if you make a contribution in the empire, it is possible to receive the title of earl.

Even if it was the Grave Duke family, there was no one who could do anything with magic.

But I was completely overwhelmed.

Before I could even use my hands, I ended up in a humiliating posture.

‘Did he use a magic tool? No, that can’t be true. ‘If he had used it, there’s no way I wouldn’t have noticed.’

However, if it wasn’t a magic tool, it would mean that he was overwhelmed by the kid purely with his magical abilities.

But it’s impossible.

He, a 7th rank high-ranking wizard, is overwhelmed by a child of only 15?

“No, that can’t be.”

Without realizing it, he shook his head and let his thoughts out.

Yeah, that can’t be possible.

It may have simply been because his condition was not that good. With that thought in mind, he tried to shake off the thought that had just occurred to him.

Okay.

‘Isn’t this family going to be mine soon anyway, as planned?’

He reflexively took out the necklace he had hidden under his clothes and checked it.

A necklace decorated with a greedy snake.

Zylo Silo muttered with a dark smile as he held the necklace.

“… … For chaos.”

He witnessed.

The existence of a god with such overwhelming power that he can turn even this duke family into stumble… … .

And the church that worshiped that god was behind him.

Soon, chaos will being.

* * *

One by one, the vassals left and only two people remained.

There were only Setarim and Repentir ivan with puzzled expressions.

I guess he didn’t think that I would finish the job so easily.

“Well, Your Highness… … .”

Setarim calmed down his embarrassment and quickly got down on one knee.

“Thank you God for listening! Repentir ivanis a truly loyal to Grave’s family… .”

“I know, Setarim .”

Why don’t I know that?

The reason why I hated Repentir ivanso much when I was young is simple.

Because it was an excellent character.

Whether in terms of personality or skills.

I was jealous of Repentir ivan because he was so different from me.

It wasn’t even funny.

You’re so obsessed with fixing your own flaws and being jealous of someone else that you can’t become better.

I saw Repenter.

It was a mess, but the eyes were still alive.

“Repentir , I will ask just one question.”

“I am listening my loard.”

“If you go back in time , will you make the same choice?”

Will you save the residents of the territory even if we sacrifice valuable artefact?

Even if it means driving yourself to destruction.

And Repentir ivan answered without hesitation at all.

“I will.”

“Is that so?”

I guess so.

Because you already did that once.

That was enough.

At that time, Repentir ivan opened his mouth.

“Your Highness, please punish me.”

“what?”

“Even if it was a choice made to save the territory from a horde of monsters, it is an undeniable fact that it caused damage to the territory. Punishment… … .”

“Don’t talk bullshit.”

I’m just trying to end things on a good note, but they always end up being so inflexible.

“It’s okay if the residents of the territory live. “It’s not a territory that will collapse just because we break one thing.”

“… … !”

“Because the atmosphere of the territory being ruined by those dead residents is greater than the cost of repairing it.”

If there were no local residents in the first place, who would they collect taxes from?

Strictly speaking, the monsters flowing into the territory were my fault for not being able to focus my efforts on defending the territory.

If that’s the case, I’ll have to take it.

But for some reason, Repentir ivandoesn’t seem at all comfortable with my words.

It’s really inflexible.

then.

“Well, if you want to be punished, there’s nothing I can’t do.”

After saying that, I turned my head towards Setarim, who was kneeling earlier.

“Knight Commander, Setarim.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

After telling him to stand up first, I got to the point.

“As of now, Repentir ivan is my bodyguard. “Please fill the vacancies within the Knights with other talented individuals.”

“Well, Your Highness… … ?!”

Setarim looked surprised at those words, but then asked worriedly.

“that… … “Didn’t you say earlier that you would use someone recommended by Zylo Silo as your escort?”

“Oh, that.”

Now that I think about it, there is such a thing.

There is nothing to think deeply about.

“Let’s just fire him. “You will eat well and live well.”

“… … yes?!”

Setarim with a shocked expression.

Repentir ivan also looks quite agitated by my sudden decision.

Of course, I have no intention of changing my decision.

“That man is fired, and Sir Repentaire is my new bodyguard.”

I chuckled, looking at the two who still had dumbfounded expressions.

“It is a matter of treating a squire who is reputed to be a bastard as a lord. “It must be a very difficult task, even from the Lord’s point of view.”

It’s not wrong.

From now on, Repentir ivan will have to work hard according to my instructions.

“how is it. “Isn’t this enough punishment?”

At my words, they both nodded with a shocked expression.
