chapter 26
Leo looked at the ice barrier that surrounded him.
The Frost Breath <Self-Defense> ability was activated and blocked Carlos’ attack.
However, his expression was not very good.
‘Tsk. You want to change the direction of the bullet. I’ve seen it often in games, but I’ve been beaten by this.’
How to hit and deflect magic bullets during an attack.
What Carlos just showed me was a trick he was familiar with.
It’s not like you can only do it with flamethrowers.
If it’s bullet-style magic, you can hit it in the air like that and disorient it.
Because it can suddenly change its trajectory, it was one of the tricks that wizard players often use.
When I play the game, I use it and experience it, but I almost get hit by this.
Thanks to self-defense, I didn’t get hurt anywhere, but instead, I felt a sense of disappointment in myself.
I was too careless.
‘It wasn’t all just because I could see what the other person was going to do.’
The eye that sees mana, the god of spell interpretation, the best mana sensitivity, etc.
These characteristics were good when learning magic, but the effect was much greater during combat.
What the other person’s intentions were and what they would do in the future were all predicted.
The battle felt too easy.
The way Carlos hid the casting, which he considered a turning point.
It may not be visible to others, but it was clearly visible to Leo.
In the first place, the flow of mana was divided into two, how could I not know.
‘That’s why I ignored it too much.’
The opponent’s intentions were clearly visible, so I let go of my alertness.
‘It was an attack that any wizard with some discernment and experience would notice.’
Saying it’s because the days when I was playing games and the reality now are different is just an excuse.
How many magic battles have you experienced?
This was purely my own mistake.
I learned a good lesson though.
‘If I’m careless just because I’ve gained some shallow strength, I’ll get a serious nose injury.’
It could have been a better day.
If this happened later in a critical situation, it would have been a big deal.
reflection is here.
Make sure to read from noble mtl . com
Just don’t repeat the same mistakes in the future.
After the self-reflection, Leo looked around.
Aristocrats, including his father, the King of Biden, and the Marquis of Merverde were whispering.
I couldn’t hear it because it was far away, but it was obvious.
‘Sheesh. I accidentally disclosed self-defense here.’
An ice barrier created with a silver magic circle.
It was a famous description enough to appear in a children’s book.
It would be difficult for the people of the Magic Kingdom to not even know this.
“Uh, how… .”
A voice came from the front.
It was Carlos.
He was staring at Leo blankly.
“how… blocked that… ?”
I couldn’t quite understand.
The flaming bullets he fired almost hit.
I watched it with so much concentration that I even read all of Leo’s expressions at that time.
His eyes, which had been consistent throughout, apparently widened in surprise.
I thought it was eaten unconditionally.
‘Even if the Countess or the Marquis of Merverde intervened, I thought it would be impossible to completely block it because it was a third party… .’
But no.
Leo blocked it perfectly in an unheard of way.
Even Carlos doesn’t know what the trick was.
“thanks.”
Leo opened his mouth.
It was the first thing I spoke to after the battle started.
Carlos made a puzzled expression.
“what… Are you saying thank you?”
“Thanks to that, I learned to have a good mindset.”
“… … ?”
Carlos made a more puzzled expression as if asking what he was talking about.
However, Leo did not respond any further, and lightly flicked his hand.
Mana drew a beautiful ‘line’ while swimming in the air.
This is a characteristic of a 2nd class wizard.
But it didn’t end there.
‘The line… ?’
Carlos opened his mouth involuntarily.
The blue lines created by Leo came together to form a single figure.
Carlos knew this.
can’t know
Wasn’t it the place where he hoped and hoped so much, but was blocked by his talent every time he couldn’t overcome it?
‘Third class… .’
The realm of being called a true wizard.
The 7-year-old little boy looking at himself with those cold silver eyes easily surpassed the years he had worked hard for for nearly 20 years.
– Damn it!
After that, a large sword made of ice was thrust down in front of Carlos’ eyes.
– Quaang!
The seat where Carlos was was frozen solid.
* * *
The friendly match is over.
Leo waved his hand.
A knife made of ice.
It didn’t hit Carlos, it was stuck in front of him.
He sat down on his knees in a daze.
Ice crystals shatter in front of my eyes.
From the 3rd class, which creates figures with mana, it also creates complex magic.
It evolves from magic that simply shoots arrows and bullets to a higher level of change.
The same was true of the 3rd class magic included in Frost Breath, the ‘freeze rescue formula’.
To put it simply, it had the effect of creating a weapon with cold attribute abilities.
Swords, spears, swords, axes, helberds, bows, arrows, armor, shields and more.
Ice weapons created with magic boasted excellent performance that was not inferior to normal weapons.
If you hit it, it was possible to freeze the opponent or break the weapon to inflict damage.
‘According to the history books, it is said that in an emergency, King Karst made armor and weapons with his own freezing formula and fought like a magician.’
Even his skills are said to be quite good.
A true hero capable of close-range combat, a weakness of wizards!
‘I’m sure that’s impossible.’
Leo chuckled.
A person who is out of breath just by walking for a while, wearing armor and weapons and fighting in close combat.
Even a passing dog will laugh.
‘Still, the power alone is worth using.’
The advantage of the freezing structure lies in its persistence.
Once created, a weapon that continues to exist until it is about to break.
There is nothing like this to use as armor or a weapon in case of an emergency.
Even the quality of the weapons isn’t bad.
Since the quality varies depending on the magician’s talent, the things Leo makes are easily surpassed by ordinary industrial products.
Although it could not be wielded directly, it showed sufficient power just by using it as a throwing weapon.
The first to run after the battle was King Biden.
“Hey Leo! What are those magics just now?! where the hell did you get that… .”
He had a complicated expression.
The king clearly recognized the magic that had just unfolded.
Self-defense and freezing structural formula.
Aren’t both magic famous as the trademark of the founder, King Karst!
On one side of the castle, there is a portrait of Karst the Great.
He had silver hair, silver eyes, and was armed with weapons and armor of the freezing structure.
And from Leo in front of him, it was as if he could see that scene.
“Frost Breath… Besides, what happened to that amount of mana? Did the Marquis of Merverde give me something else without saying anything?”
“Yes? I knew it was a gift from His Highness, but… ?”
The King of Biden and the Marquis of Merverde looked at each other as if they were talking nonsense.
Leo smiled and shook his head.
“No. I happened to get it when I was out the other day.”
“lately?”
“no way… Are you talking about the trip to Great Forest Mountain?”
Having said that, the king was startled and shut his mouth.
Because they weren’t the only ones here.
– Again and again.
Countess Hermery approached.
“It was a great battle, my lord. That’s really great. I feel like my eyes have opened up a bit more today.”
“Hmm. Thank you for taking good care of our prince.”
The Marquis of Merverde sneaked in her way.
It is a situation where Leo may have inherited the legacy of the great king of Karst.
Her approach needed to be intercepted.
“Excuse me, but since you are tired, can we discuss the compensation the Countess mentioned later?”
“of course. Anything.”
her eyes twinkled
“I’ll be waiting for you.”
“hahahaha. I won’t keep you waiting too long.”
The Marquis of Merverde, the King of Biden, and the Countess of Herméry fought tirelessly.
Perhaps now is the moment when the birth of a brilliant star is just around the corner.
To preoccupy something now, three people were looking at each other.
And from behind, Carlos stared blankly at them.
‘Ahh… .’
The nobles of the kingdom, as well as the opponent Leo.
Even her teacher, Countess Ermeri.
The loser had no interest in him.
* * *
The king’s reception room.
After the battle, they moved to their seats, and three people gathered and sat down, including King Biden, Marquis Merverde, and Leo.
“Hey Leo. Is it okay if I don’t rest?”
“Yes, father. Nothing was too difficult.”
Leo shrugged.
It was true.
I almost took a shot, but thanks to self-defense, I didn’t get a single nail wound.
Since he didn’t move a single step, there was no stamina consumption, and there was not much mana consumption.
There really was no need to rest.
“hahahaha. but. It was a third-class wizard against a second-class wizard, so there shouldn’t be anything difficult.”
He smiled brightly.
Even if you look at your child objectively, he is an outstanding genius, how could he not be pretty?
You’ll have to listen to the details, but first of all, right now, I was just delighted with my son’s achievements.
And then, Leo opened his mouth.
“And father. I have a favor.”
“yes? ask?”
“Yes.”
“hahahaha. yes. tell me anything If it’s my son’s request, I’ll do anything.”
King Biden said boldly.
Whatever his son said, he was willing to listen.
“What do you want? Artifacts in the royal treasure house? Or elixir? Just talk.”
Leo’s eyes lit up.
“Then, I want to be free to go out of the castle at any time.”
“… freedom?”
“Yes.”
Of course, the treasures of the royal palace are coveted, but freedom comes first.
Isn’t that why he accepted this battle offer?
“Well… .”
“that’s… .”
The expressions of the King of Biden and the Marquis of Merverde became shaken.
Since they care about Leo, there was a thought that they could not be allowed to do anything.
‘This will take some time to convince.’
Of course, Leo, who expected this, sighed inwardly.
No matter how much I promised, I didn’t think it would be easy to get.
Of course, I have been prepared for this.
“father. Please listen to me. As for why I need the right to go outside freely… .”
From then on, Leo started teasing his mouth diligently.
With a whopping 48 reasons why he had to go outside, created with an outstanding brain.
Eventually, after hours of persistent persuasion, Leo was able to get what he wanted.
* * *
Darkness in the moonlit mountains.
A woman was walking through the bushes.
– Sabak. Sabak.
Red hair that shines brightly even in the moonlight.
Walking in the mountains wearing high heels, she took a step without hesitation, as if it was not uncomfortable.
She was Countess Hermery.
‘I said that it must have been obtained from Daesilim Mountain.’
When the battle was over, the King and the Marquis of Merverd clearly listened to what they said in amazement.
The place Leo went to recently was Great Forest Mountain, and did he get his inheritance there?
‘There’s definitely a point.’
Make sure to read from noble mtl . com
Judging from his own eyes, it seemed that no one knew that Leo had obtained the Frost Breath.
Where did the only 7-year-old prince get that magic?
‘For now, it’s not inside the royal castle.’
Unless the kingdom people were stupid, they would have searched the inside of the castle for the past hundreds of years.
However, the legacy of the great king of karst has not been found anywhere.
‘Then there is only one answer. There was an inheritance outside the royal castle.’
And Countess Ermeri remembered the moment she saw Leo at the top of this mountain.
I felt an unusual flow of mana for a moment, so I watched it.
‘It must be. That’s when it’s clear.’
so i came back
If there is something left here that the child has not obtained, it is to take it for himself.
– Sabak. Sabak.
The moment she walked around the top of the mountain leaning on the moonlight like that.
For the first time, her steps stopped.
Her cold gaze was shot to one side.
“… under.”
There was a passenger in one corner of the summit.
A kid with silver hair and silver eyes, who looks like he’ll be a very handsome man when he grows up.
“What are you doing here? Countess Ermery.”
As if Leo had waited, he smiled at her.
