Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent - Chapter 231
231 – Nonsense.
The day was coming to an end, and the capital knights gathered again.
The same number of people gathered as before, but the atmosphere could not be compared to before. In the silence that seemed to sink beneath the ground, a woman opened her mouth first.
“It’s really bad….”
Viola, the pure white capital knight.
She, who seemed to have created her musical score as a human being, did not hide it and showed signs of discomfort. Glaring at her defeated Selpen and Clot, she opened her mouth again.
“You guys are so bad. Please react to something.”
“….”
Selpen and Clot did not give any answer. And that was enough of an answer for Viola.
Viola placed her index finger on her temple as if her head was pounding.
“Not only is it not enough to show off her best and rise to the position of a hero, but the honor of the capital knight is falling with each game….”
Her viola voice, which was like a heavenly melody, was now very disorganized. She is dissonant in tone.
“….”
Losers have no excuses. You can’t even make excuses. Selpen and Clot had to listen to the criticism in silence.
But at that time.
“Viola. It’s okay. “Viola will rise to the status of a hero anyway, so you don’t have to worry about the honor of other capital knights.”
Hearing the words of the guard knight, who seemed to be trying to console and soothe her, sparks flew out of Viola’s eyes.
“… What?”
Viola glared at the guard as if he were going to kill him.
“Even if I become a hero, the honor of a capital knight must always be elevated. Higher people get higher titles. That I have always taken the high road. “That’s my way.”
As the viola exudes a life-like energy, something similar to the staff of her score takes on a golden glow and blooms in the form of a haze.
In such a situation, it was Selpen who opened his mouth.
“You are thinking wrong. Viola.”
“… ?”
The two gazes meet in the air. I ask again.
“What did you just say?”
“Viola. “You listen to me clearly.”
“I’m not asking again because I didn’t hear.”
“I’m going to emphasize this one more time. “Because it’s an important story.”
Selpen continued calmly.
“Viola, it looks like you don’t know anything because you only received the results report…. “Those wizards are by no means ordinary.”
“To what extent is this not normal?”
“I don’t know how people will take it if I say this….”
Selpen swallowed his dry saliva and barely managed to speak. For your information, her appearance was still in disrepair.
“They are at the level of water engineers.”
Silence fell in the space.
Viola looked around her as if what she had just heard was true, and everyone seemed to agree with what she said.
Yes, if she was watching the game, she couldn’t have missed it. That’s how amazing the representatives of the Faculty of Magic were.
Selpen continued her words.
“If the place or time had been different, the winner or loser might have been different. And if it hadn’t been a draw, I would have definitely been the one who lost.”
“… This.”
However, Viola seemed even more angry at Selpen’s words. She finally couldn’t stand it anymore and slammed her desk.
“Is it right to confidently say something like that now?”
The treble clef engraved in Viola’s eyes shone as if she would jump out at any moment.
Viola was frustrated.
If it is true that wizards have become stronger, why did the monk knights not reach a higher level while they were making such progress?
I swing my sword in search of something to somehow motivate myself. No matter what level you reach, you have to raise your head and aim high, but they even seemed to be slightly discouraged when they saw the magic school.
‘Weak. I’m weak. ‘How can I be so weak?’
Viola’s face darkened.
Despite the fact that she bore the title of knight of the capital as before, Viola felt extremely weak just to say something like this.
‘Our ancestral knights did not do this. They seem like trash who took advantage of their unique abilities….’
It was right then.
“Viola, the next match will be held soon.”
Viola looked at the clock. In the quiet of dawn, the next match against the Faculty of Magic had to be played.
“I’ll take care of it. Wait.”
“Yes, Viola.”
The escort driver tried to go back immediately, but Viola suddenly caught him.
“Oh, wait a minute.”
“… !”
When Viola calls out, the escort driver quickly stops.
From Noble mtl dot com
“Who will participate in the Faculty of Magic?”
“After all, it’s not flan. “It’s Trixie.”
Viola nodded her head quietly.
‘Once again, he is an ordinary representative.’
Maybe it’s the last time Flan will appear, but he doesn’t participate this time either. But if it’s Trixie….
“Isn’t this a famous family among wizards?”
“Yes, that’s right. Fritz, the name of the family to which Trixie belongs. “It’s very famous among wizards.”
“That means….”
Even students whose names are not famous among the representatives of the Faculty of Magic have achieved success. It goes without saying that Trixie is better than them.
The paper handed over by the escort driver also contained information related to Trixie. Viola’s skilled eyes read it very quickly.
“I recently took over the position of head of the family, and my academy grades are all the best…. Unlike other representatives, he is a genius who has been called a genius countless times….”
The other capital knights stared at Viola as she mumbled.
“There is no need to think too hard about it.”
At that time, someone lightly lifted the sword. It was Libra, the knight who wore a hat and cut grass, and the one who cut down memories.
She spoke her words very slowly.
“Anyway, aren’t you going to deal with Plan yourself, Viola? And now we are in a situation where we must achieve victory, and I think it would be right for me to participate.”
“No.”
But Viola firmly called out Libra as she was adjusting the strings of her hat. Libra stopped what she was doing and looked at Viola with a questioning look in her eyes.
Viola thought again.
‘Trixie.’
The one who followed behind her was a genius.
It is obvious that if the person who was called a genius remains as a member of Flan’s group, he will be much stronger later. No, maybe he’s still very strong right now.
‘And Libra.’
Libra, the one who cuts down memories.
She is strong. There is no disagreement with Viola about that. This is because she has a unique ability to cut through memories, and her swordsmanship is also excellent.
But….
‘Nothing turned out as expected.’
After the precedent of Selpen and Clot’s defeat, there was nothing that could be guaranteed anymore. What if even Libra, the memory cutter, is defeated?
In fact, you are losing even your trump card. So Viola had no choice but to take slightly different measures.
After about two minutes, Viola nodded his head.
“Libra.”
“I am listening.”
“I’m sorry, but…” . “It’s not your turn yet.”
“Hmm?”
Libra seemed quite embarrassed by that statement. He slightly lifts his hat and looks at Viola.
Either way, Viola turns her head calmly. She said, not to Libra, but to Libra’s escort knight who was standing in the distance, gesturing with her chin.
“It would be better for that escort to leave.”
“Are you saying you’re going to raise my escort driver above the stadium?”
“Yes.”
After a moment of silence, Libra opened her mouth again.
“Aren’t you still thinking too lightly of the Faculty of Magic? At the level of an escort knight….”
“I didn’t look at it funny. “In fact, it’s the opposite.”
“The opposite?”
“Okay. I accepted what you guys said as is. “I want you to know that this is the conclusion I came to.”
“That means….”
Libra was lost in thought for a moment.
“… !”
And at some point, her eyes widened.
“Viola, you can’t believe it!”
“Okay. “That theory is correct.”
Then, Libra’s gaze as she looked into Viola’s eyes became very harsh.
“… I’m not saying that I think I might lose to Trixie, so I’d rather send out an escort knight who will definitely lose. “Am I right?”
“Exactly. It’s better like this. Now that things are like this, the remaining representatives will all have to be dealt with by the escort knights.”
Viola said, her eyes sparkling.
“And I will deal with Flan myself. I understand?”
“Stop being ridiculous.”
Libra was about to protest, but Viola quickly wrote down her name on a piece of paper and completed her match.
As Libra tried to reach her hand for her paper.
“You are the ones who are making no sense—!”
Viola screamed her voice. She has prominent veins on her neck.
“The Capital Knight is defeated! A capital knight! “Not anyone else, but the Capital Knight—!”
Silence fell in the space for a moment.
After a moment of panting, Viola spoke.
“… Shut up and do as I say. No monk can lose anymore, so do this no matter what. “Before I kill them all.”
Flan.
That was all that was on Viola’s mind.
