Magical Genius With Quantum Magic

An offer that is difficult to refuse

“Thank you for leaving. Even those guys are valuable labor for the raiders guild.”

Immediately after the drunkards who had been arguing with Leon ran away, the red-haired attacker came down the stairs and approached Leon and spoke like that.

Although duels are taboo in the raiders guild, if Leon had the will to do so, it was not uncommon to receive each of their limbs one by one.

That’s because it wasn’t just the nobility that actually mattered.

For the attackers who live on a knife-edge with their skills, speaking down on their skills was a serious matter.

If you had an argument without even recognizing the opponent’s ability, it was natural in the industry to pay the price for it.

However, Leon’s purpose was not to take revenge on the drunkards who ridiculed him.

Leon was evaluated as an F-class attacker because his magical state was Circle 1, but he was trying to prove that he was not at that level by simultaneously dealing with three drunks who seemed to be of the E-class level.

“My name is Jessica.”

Leon answered by waving the hand that the attacker who introduced himself as Jessica held out.

“It’s Leon.”

“Is that magic really surprising? Where did you learn that?”

Jessica asked Leon like that as if she was very curious.

Leon answered, judging the opponent’s capabilities.

“It’s self-taught.”

In response, Jessica asked, as if to organize her thoughts for a moment.

“Are you a sub-race or something like that?”

subspecies.

It was a generic term for races that looked similar to humans but were not humans.

For example, Reeves, a fairy of the forest, or Minor, a dwarf living underground.

Dragons, the dragons, and the beasts with various animal bodies.

Jessica was suspicious of Leon as a special sub-race with a long lifespan among those sub-races, or a mixed race of that kind.

It was obviously an 8-year-old kid who had something like that, but it was hard to see his skills as an 8-year-old kid.

At least, assuming that Leon’s words are true, it would take at least several decades to develop such an unfamiliar magic by self-taught.

Above all, the life Leon exuded was not something an innocent child could give out.

A sub-race would be the most plausible excuse to explain an ability and momentum that didn’t match its appearance.

But Leon deliberately avoided answering.

I just wanted to avoid making the situation worse when a lie was discovered later.

In this case, rather than giving a clear answer to the other person’s question, leaving room for the other person to make a mistake on their own was the least risky and could lead the situation to an advantage.

“…More than that, would it be safe to say that he was in the position of the head or manager of the attackers’ guild to mediate in such a situation?”

Seeing Leon evading an answer, Jessica shook her head while feeling embarrassed inside.

“The introduction is late. I am the leader of the A-class raider party, Red Wings. He is also an executive of the Plesis branch of the raiders guild here.”

The leader of the Class A attacker party.

Leon’s eyes widened slightly at a higher grade than expected.

If it was an A-grade attacker, it was an excellent skill, equivalent to 6 circles with magic and 9 stars with martial arts.

Somehow, no matter how hard I tried to gauge the opponent’s capabilities, I couldn’t feel it.

“Then what do you think about this?”

“yes?”

Leon took out his attack license and infuse it with magical power.

Then, looking at the sentences that came to mind, Jessica couldn’t help but doubt her own eyes.

She was on the second floor and came down after hearing a commotion, so she was unaware of the situation in general.

“Even if you have enough abilities, you’re still in 1st circle? Isn’t something wrong?”

“It is certain that my level is Circle 1, but my magic system is different from the existing magic. I was in trouble because of that. If you were an executive of the raiders guild, would you have the authority to grant a qualification level commensurate with your skills?”

Only then did Jessica understand why the situation was like this and put on an absurd expression on her face.

“Did you just make the fuss just for this?”

“It may be only for you, but I have a strong reason for myself.”

“Well, okay. Still, the raiders guild is always short on staff. As long as your skills are clear, there is no reason not to upgrade them.”

Having said that, Jessica immediately gestured to the counter staff, and Jessica, who was handed the stamp-type artifact from the staff, manipulated Leon’s attack license directly.

Then, the wording of the hologram that appeared on the attack certificate changed.

Name: Leon♡

Magic: 1 Circle Verified

D-Class Attacker

In that short time, Leon’s attack qualification rose two steps from F-grade to D-grade.

It meant that Jessica judged Leon’s ability as a 3rd circle wizard.

Leon was also able to fully satisfy Jessica’s eyes.

However, I was a little concerned about the heart mark added next to the name.

“···What is this?”

At Leon’s question, Jessica smiled and gave Leon’s attack certificate a kiss and returned it.

“This heart is the mark of my favorite attacker.”

Jessica, who answered in that way, was only smiling with an incomprehensible smile, so it was difficult for Leon to tell whether it was serious or a joke.

One thing was certain, it was the fact that it would be difficult to see a good result if she dared to cause a wave against her intentions.

Maybe this heart pattern is Jessica’s warning.

“By the way, what is the desperate reason for raising the rating while making such a fuss?”

“…I need money urgently.”

“What~ It was a pretty common reason. I thought there was another deep story behind it.”

“So, by any chance, are there any special D-grade quests that make money? If possible, it would be nice to have a simple mission that can be completed without a stay.”

Leon is currently outside without his family’s knowledge.

I couldn’t take on the duties of staying outside for several days.

No matter how much the family’s servants treated Leon like an invisible person, it didn’t mean he was really invisible.

Above all else, if Leon goes out, Riel will be the first to notice.

Of course, Riel wouldn’t let the family know about Leon’s stay out, but it was clear that Riel would also be worried about Leon’s sudden disappearance.

Even for that reason, Leon was unable to carry out his long-term mission.

However, at Leon’s words that she still wants to earn money, Jessica looked at Leon for a moment.

There seems to be a place where he can guess something, but he seems to be contemplating whether or not to leave it to Leon.

“In this industry, it is. Being able to make a lot of money means that it’s risky. Of course, it was meant to take some risk, right?”

Leon nodded.

Leon was also aware of how absurdly he had cast a spell.

If there was a quest that could meet those conditions, it was a problem that Leon had to carry, no matter how much risk it took.

“great. So, shall we move for a moment? The atmosphere is a bit cluttered to talk about work.”

Not that it wasn’t, but because of what Leon had just done, all eyes around him were pouring towards this place.

Nodding her head, Jessica waved a polite, meaningful smile and beckoned towards the break room.

And the story that started soon wasn’t that difficult.

“Anyway, one D-grade dungeon has been in trouble lately.”

At first, I thought it was an ordinary D-grade dungeon, but the news of the attackers who entered the dungeon was cut off one after another.

The number of victims was a whopping 5 D-class parties, and the number of attackers alone reached 40.

And, as the number of failed dungeon attack quests increases, the quest cost increases, but now the quest cost is higher than that of any C-grade dungeon.

The problem was that no matter how heavy the money, there weren’t many attackers who wanted to enter the dungeon where dozens of people died.

However, it is not possible to use Class C and Class B attackers because the dimensional rift closes when it receives a certain amount of magic wave.

The number of attackers that can enter depends on the size of the dungeon, but this dungeon was not so large that it seemed that about 8 players could enter if it was a D-class attacker.

If that is the case, it would be nice if, at most, no more than four C-class attackers could enter, and two B-class attackers could enter.

It had to be said that the request cost was higher than that of the D-grade dungeon, but it was the C-grade request fee, but it was difficult to find an attacker who would challenge the dungeon where it is unknown what kind of danger lurks at the same wage as usual.

“Do you have no idea what happened in the dungeon?”

“Because it is a closed dungeon, unfortunately.”

If it was a closed dungeon, it was a closed dungeon that, once entered, could not be exited until the dungeon was completely attacked.

When you enter the dungeon, it means that it becomes a world completely disconnected from this world.

“But if it were you, wouldn’t most problems be solved by force?”

It’s funny to say that an A-grade attacker is only moving because of a D-grade dungeon, but if you’re in such trouble, you can solve it yourself.

At Leon’s question, Jessica sighed deeply.

“I thought so too. However, in this dungeon, A-class attackers were unable to enter.”

Is that really the case?

“In my experience, no matter how much ordinary attackers are poured into dungeons that have failed to attack in succession, in the end, they cannot be attacked. A special problem like this requires special measures to suit the problem.”

“.

“I don’t know you well, but I can tell that you are not ordinary just by looking at the magic. Being unusual means being different from others, and in my experience of these clogged problems, the clue to the solution is often found in such differences.”

For some reason, it felt like Jessica was overestimating Leon, but as Leon, there was no choice but to worry a little.

As Leon’s worries grew longer, Jessica suddenly spoke.

“10 gold.”

“What?”

“If you only attack this dungeon, I will give you 10 gold as a request fee. Did I say money was urgent? At this amount, do you think it is the best treatment for a D-grade dungeon request?”

It’s not that it’s not, but 10 gold was a very high request fee for one dungeon attack.

Considering the price alone, it can be said that the treatment is equivalent to that of a B-grade attacker.

Considering the two-year salary of an ordinary soldier and the subsidy that Leon received from his family, it was equivalent to eight months’ worth of money.

“…a proposal that is difficult to refuse. so? When is the attack schedule?”

“If you have made up your mind, there is no reason to hold on for a long time. Come back to the raiders guild early tomorrow morning. Until then, I will prepare the other attackers.”

Leon set the attack schedule like that, and as he exited the attackers guild, he looked down at his hand.

His fingertips were trembling softly.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve felt this way.’

He spent 45 years in a land that had nothing to do with war.

He thought he had just melted into the peace and had adapted, but when he thought of going to the battlefield once more, his body reacted first.

Leon clenched his fists to shake the sensation of the boiling blood and hurried out of the slum.
