Embrace the Magic (128)
Rodin didn’t even open his mouth. He just moved his shoulders slightly.
Phew!
“Ugh!”
Elder Kendrick was struck down on the ground by something. The attack was so sudden that he could not come to his senses.
Meanwhile, Charis and Jenna rescued Larry and Bianca and moved them to the wagon where Matthew was trapped.
Chaekang!
The iron restraints that bound Matthew’s arms and legs were torn off by Jenna with both hands.
“Larry, Bianca.”
Jenna stopped Matthew from approaching.
It was dangerous to mess with Larry and Bianca now. They had so many broken bones that they could have been crippled if they were not careful.
“Charis, hold me.”
“huh.”
Charis first laid Larry down carefully and opened his mouth.
Jenna poured the potion Rodin had given her into her open mouth. She then gave the potion to Bianca as well.
“Phew, that’s not good.”
“Get out of the way.”
Before he knew it, Rodin had come near. Elder Kendrick was hanging in the air, caught in something.
The wizards of the Cedria Tower tried to save him, but it was no use. The more they tried to touch Elder Kendrick, the higher he went.
It was Rodin’s doing.
“You bastard! Can’t you let this go?”
“Oh my, what is this?”
Then another figure appeared in the room. It was an old man who looked to be over 70 years old.
“Could it be… the Death Tower?”
Elder Kendrick, who was hanging in the air, recognized the blue robes unique to Landes Tower.
The reason I came here in the first place was because of an order from Landes Tower. So it made no sense for me not to recognize Landes Tower’s robes.
“Hmm, you’re wearing the robes of the Cedria Tower. Who are you?”
“Ken, this is Elder Kendrick. Please, please do something about this. Those vicious men made a surprise attack…”
“Hmm.”
Francis Topjoo couldn’t get a good grasp of the situation just by looking at it.
All I could tell was that a superhuman who had just entered the 7th Circle had flown here like crazy and had magically bound the elder of the Cedria Tower.
Francis Topjoo turned his head towards the three people including Rodin.
A woman who appeared to be an inspector intervened between herself and the newly-formed wizard. It was a typical scene that escorts would show.
“Top, Lord Top.”
“You seem to know my face.”
“I… have seen it from a distance before… Lord. Please untie this first.”
Elder Kendrick tried everything to break the spell that was binding him. He tried flying magic, and he even tried to use his magic directly to break the bindings.
Nothing worked. I just felt helpless, as if something was sapping my strength.
“But I have a question.”
“Please…speak. Please…unravel this.”
“How did you end up fighting a superhuman?”
“A super…human?”
Elder Kendrick did not immediately understand what Francis Topjoo was saying.
If you are talking about a superhuman, it means a 7th circle wizard and a master swordsman, and the only person who fits that description is Francis Topju.
“Didn’t you know?”
“Have I… offended the Lord’s… reverence?”
“You still don’t know. It’s not me, it’s that wizard over there who’s the superhuman. He’s a great wizard who’s reached the 7th circle.”
“Huh? That’s nonsense…, bullshit!”
Elder Kendrick’s face, which had been flushed red from exertion, instantly turned pale. His pupils, which looked back and forth between Francis Topju and Rodin, shook madly.
Elder Kendrick wasn’t the only one who was surprised. The wizards of the Cedria Tower, who were just watching Francis Tower, were also frozen in shock.
Meanwhile, Rodin was focusing on treating Larry and Bianca.
“ha.”
My body was too badly damaged. It was difficult to completely heal it with the 6 circle healing magic I knew.
‘I need to create a 7-circle healing magic.’
I thought of all the runes I knew. I also remembered the runes and their combination formulas that I had learned during the Proval Welcome class.
“Parabit Hasto Rabipao…….”
Rodin created healing magic using the runes and combinations he knew.
There were many runes that I knew, but had never said out loud. Because they were unfamiliar pronunciations, it took a long time to chant the spell.
“…Pure healing power. Absolute cure!”
The magic was complete. A pure white light bloomed from his fingertips and permeated Larry’s body.
Plop! Plop!
Broken bones fell back into place, torn flesh healed, and severed tendons reconnected.
The power of the potion Jenna fed helped the energy of absolute healing. They had a synergistic effect on each other and quickly brought Larry back to normal.
“Phew.”
We’ve only treated one person so far. We still have two more to treat.
Although better than Larry, Bianca’s injuries weren’t light either. Matthew’s injuries also looked like he’d been hit quite a bit.
Fortunately, I had some magic left over. I created a spell using an unfamiliar combination of runes that I had never used before, but less than 5% of my magic was consumed.
“Parabit Hasto…, absolute cure.”
I chanted the runes again. The magic was completed a little faster than before. The 7th circle absolute healing magic also healed Bianca’s body.
“Recovery.”
“Thank you, sir.”
After healing Bianca, I only used 5 circle recovery on Matthew.
Matthew’s injuries weren’t as bad as Larry or Bianca’s.
Even with just the potion I had already fed him, he would have returned to normal in no time.
I added 5 circle healing magic to it, so the wound healed in an instant.
“Whew. This damn old man.”
Rodin turned his head and glared at Elder Kendrick, murderous intent streaming from his eyes.
Elder Kendrick, who had just heard that Rodin was a superman, could not meet Rodin’s gaze. He crouched down and tried his best to avoid eye contact.
“Cedria Tower. I’ll kill them all……”
“Don’t do that.”
Francis Topzhu interrupted Rodin.
Rodin, whose mood had become noticeably worse, glared at Francis Topju.
If they kept interfering, I was prepared to fight Francis Tower Lord. If Landes Tower was blocking me, I was prepared to fight the entire Tower.
“There has to be a valid reason for stopping it. I’m a bit angry.”
“First of all, we’ll decide who’s right and who’s wrong later. Let’s also postpone finding out the reason for later. The reason I stopped you was not because of Elder Kendrick, who’s tied up so badly over there. I stopped you for the sake of your character and future.”
Rodin suppressed his anger for a moment.
Elder Kendrick was already tied up. It was not too late to decide on his punishment after hearing what Francis Topju had to say.
“You’ll have to explain.”
“This story won’t be of any help to anyone who isn’t part of the 7th Circle. Silent.”
Francis created a barrier around himself and Rodin. It was a magic that prevented any sound from passing through from the inside to the outside, or from the outside to the inside.
“I’m ready to listen.”
“Let’s continue the story. You just entered the 7th circle. You became a superhuman. A superhuman is not something that transcends humanity as the name suggests. You are still human.”
“I know that.”
Rodin had just entered the 7th Circle, but he did not think of himself as anything less than human. He was a human who would bleed when he was wounded and sleep when he was tired.
“But I’m different from my previous self. I guess you could say I’m a newly born human.”
“A new born human. I felt the same way.”
The feeling of being ‘born again’ was very abstract. It was difficult to explain to someone who had not experienced it firsthand.
When Rodin reached the 7th Circle, he felt something mysterious. It was hard to explain to others, but it was a strange feeling of becoming a different ‘me’ than before.
“So your actions right after you become a superhuman will determine your personality, disposition, and future. It’s like how a child’s personality is determined at a young age.”
“Are you saying that if I kill that old man, my personality will become strange?”
“As soon as they become superhumans, everyone who sees blood becomes eccentric.”
“hmm.”
While reading Rodin’s book, I saw many anecdotes about 7th circle archmages. There were almost no 7th circle archmages that seemed ordinary.
Crazy. Eccentric. Unpredictable.
The 7th Circle Archmage was a being that could not be explained without this expression.
“I stopped you because I wanted you to become a somewhat normal and ordinary archmage. If you are willing to put up with your strange personality and kill the author, I won’t stop you.”
“ha.”
“This may help, but if the author is truly guilty, I will punish him instead.”
“Why do you want to go through all that trouble, sir?”
“If you do it yourself, not only the author, but all the wizards of the Cedria Tower here will die.”
Contrary to Francis Topjoo’s thoughts, Rodin did not intend to kill them all.
I was angry, but I didn’t lose my mind. I intended to punish those who committed crimes, but I didn’t intend to tie up and deal with those who were simply swept away.
“I didn’t mean to do that.”
“Hehehe, is that so? Anyway, I have a small connection with the lord of the Cedria Tower. To be honest, I just want to prevent the worst from happening.”
Francis Tower Master wanted to close the matter with minimal bloodshed, so that he could face the familiar face of Julian, the Tower Master of the Cedria Tower.
Of course, before that, the first thing to do was to figure out how the situation came to be like this.
dump!
Rodin gave in to Francis’s persuasion and broke the spell that had bound Elder Kendrick.
Elder Kendrick, who had fallen to the floor, got up with a frown. He glared at Rodin for a moment, then looked earnestly at Francis Tower.
“My lord, I have been wronged. I was just sitting there, and you came and attacked me without warning.”
“Those kids? Why did they turn out like that?”
“He was a thief. I just gave him a small punishment for trying to steal my stuff.”
“Hmm, Elder Kendrick, you said? You should think carefully about what an archmage is and what he can do before you answer. An archmage can distinguish truth from lies.”
Elder Kendrick was silent at Francis Topjoo’s words.
Even Elder Kendrick had no idea what a 7th Circle Archmage could do.
The Cedria Tower he belonged to had never produced a 7th circle wizard since it was built hundreds of years ago. Even among the 6th circle wizards, there had only been two in its hundreds of years of history.
So I had no choice but to believe Francis Topjoo’s words.
Of course, being a great wizard doesn’t mean that he can distinguish between truth and lies. He just made threats to hear the truth.
“That…, uh….”
“Are you suddenly speechless? Let me ask you. Why did this happen? If you don’t answer, I’ll have to ask the others behind you.”
Gulp!
Elder Kendrick couldn’t say anything. He couldn’t even come up with an excuse, so he just swallowed.
“Tsk, I don’t know the details, but I know you were wrong.”
“That’s not it……, that……”
“If you’re not going to answer, then keep your mouth shut.”
Francis Topju called the other wizards one by one. He asked them about the situation and pressured them with the momentum of a 7th Circle Archmage.
The wizards, under pressure, readily confessed what they had seen and heard. No one could lie or remain silent.
“Ha, I still don’t get it. Elder Kendrick, why on earth did you want to meet that wizard?”
“That…, uh….”
“You suddenly became mute.”
“I’ll give you the answer.”
Rodin joined their conversation.
Rodin used the 7th circle magic absolute cure on Larry and Bianca once more, and also fed them another vial of potion.
Thanks to that, Larry and Bianca’s condition improved a lot.
Matthew was almost completely healed, and there was no sign of injury on the outside.
“A few months ago, when I was living in the Marquess of Richmond, all of a sudden they….”
Rodin described the situation at the time in detail. There was nothing to add or subtract, just telling the truth.
“Elder Kendrick, so you kidnapped the children in order to covet their magical spells and stop them from creating artifacts?”
“So, rather than saying that it’s exactly like that… ”
“Since when has the Cedria Tower become a den of thieves! Did I misjudge Julian? Or is this your own judgment?”
“I’m sorry, Lord. I have committed a mortal sin. I was greedy and thought it was for the good of our Magic Tower. It was absolutely not something that the Lord of our Magic Tower instructed us to do.”
Elder Kendrick, who had tried to make excuses somehow, eventually gave in.
The time for excuses had passed. Now was the time to beg for one’s life, even if it meant begging for it.
Fortunately, it wasn’t the worst. Although he was now the bad guy, the atmosphere was being set by what happened because of his excessive loyalty to the Tower.
