Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent - Chapter 234



234 – Finally Plan

Even the moment of enjoying victory was perfect.

Despite playing a very important match, Trixie’s condition showed no change compared to before the match started. It looked so flawless.

“… “You won.”

Violet, who was sitting among the professors, muttered.

She had to repeat the same words once more.

“I won. And that too perfectly.”

However, even when Violet repeated the same words twice, no one around her opened their mouths. The reason was simple. This is because the shock brought about by the game was so great.

Why has the Faculty of Magic been so thrilling? Why did you receive support? If you think about the cause, it was simple.

People cheered for the magic department, which was in a weak position.

Although he had been oppressed by the knights for a lot of time, he felt a sense of pleasure when he saw the magic school that proudly led a rebellion.

However, the game shown this time was a little different. From the position of the ‘strong’, Trixie used her strength to crush the guard knight who was a ‘weak’.

“I’ve heard of Trixie, but I never thought her skills and growth would be this much.”

The secretary pushed up her glasses as if she was embarrassed. Violet completely agreed with her opinion.

“It’s natural that you can’t think. In fact, the last time I saw her, Trixie’s skills were no more than that of an escort knight.”

“What on earth happened?”

“… “I can only describe it as flan, flan.”

The commotion spread to the audience.

“Isn’t the magic department stronger at this level?”

“That doesn’t sound like common sense.”

“It’s common sense now. The Faculty of Magic has won. Oh, since it’s a tie once, shall we exclude it? Even so, I have never been defeated!”

I don’t know what people’s perception would be, but the results were very cold and honest. If you look at the results alone, there was almost no victory for the knight.

“Besides, this match was so overwhelming.”

Something someone blurted out.

There was no one who could refute it.

I came here wondering who would be the hero. I never thought that the Faculty of Magic would do this well.

However, their expectations were now cruelly shattered.

The flow of the stadium was changing.

No, it has already changed.

◈

“….”

A monk knight who seems to have transformed sheet music into a human being. The pure white Viola looked around with disapproving eyes.

In the first place, the escort knight was a throwaway card.

But even so, it was inevitable that the judgment would be distorted as the stadium increasingly accepted the Faculty of Magic as a strong force.

“Go in.”

The escort driver trudged back to the waiting room without even looking Viola in the eye. He must have felt shame all the way up to his head because he suffered not only a close defeat but a complete defeat.

“Viola.”

At that time, Libra, the one who cut down her memories, opened her mouth.

“Is this the only result you wanted to produce?”

Libra was a knight that many times heard among knights as being ‘inflexible.’ This is because she always values principles.

Of course, chivalry also includes respect for one another with other knights…. What was happening now was enough to make Libra angry.

“You pretended to care about the knights’ honor, but in the end, you only thought about your own safety. I should have anticipated it and prevented it from the beginning….”

Viola clicked her tongue.

“I couldn’t even imagine. “I would have guessed that Viola was treating even other capital knights like a deck of cards.”

“Libra!”

Viola raised her voice and screamed.

“Music is….”

When Libra looked into Viola’s eyes without avoiding them, Viola continued her words as if chewing and spitting out her words.

“1St movement, 2nd movement, 3rd movement…. It’s in order. If there is an important section, there can also be a section that is just for the introduction. “How can you understand the big picture?”

“So, we are just the introduction?”

“I didn’t want to use you as the introduction either. “You just created that situation yourself.”

Who wants to lose? Same thing as saying.

Libra, who understood Viola’s intentions very well, bit her lip tightly. This is because there was no knight here who did not at least try his best.

‘Not another knight, but a candidate for hero.’

Viola wasn’t like this originally.

An article as beautiful as a melody. Everyone I met was amazed when they saw Viola, and at some point, when I got to see Viola’s sword, I felt like my heart was purified.

However, Libra did not feel that sentiment right now.

It feels like I opened up a piece of discarded sheet music and looked at it.

It’s such an ugly sight that it doesn’t contain any beautiful melody, the notes are a mess and the paper is crumpled. I couldn’t erase the impression that I had encountered it.

Libra sighed and turned her head.

Flan’s face comes into view in the distance.

‘Leisure.’

I feel relaxed about him. What Libra always dreamed of was to live alone in the embrace of nature and live in vain. He had something similar to that.

Next to Flann, representatives of the magic department welcome Trixie with joy. The smiles on their faces were so flawless that I couldn’t say anything.

“Hey…. “Viola.”

At that time, another escort knight very cautiously opened his mouth.

Viola looked at the escort knight very nervously. Normally, that look alone would have made the escort knight kneel before her, but he continued as if he needed to tell her something more important.

“The Faculty of Magic has already appointed a representative.”

Then the knights’ eyes turned to the stadium. Becky, an impressive red-haired girl with a conical hat much larger than her body, was standing tall in the stadium.

“That girl is the last among the representatives of the magic department, and after that girl, Plan finally comes up. The problem is….”

The guard knight only spoke that far, but for some reason, the knights listening seemed to already know what his next words were.

“… If things go according to Viola’s plan, the guard knights will go up again this time and the capital knights will have to deal with Flan, but there are no guard knights left.”

Viola chewed her lower lip.

If this trend continues, there is a risk that another capital knight will suffer defeat. By then, the status of the knights will have already fallen to the ground.

No, it is not at the level of being placed on the ground. If it lands, it might disappear somewhere.

Viola quickly slapped the faces of the capital knights.

But it was right then.

“Huh?”

“Uh… !”

“Hey, what is that?”

The whispers in the audience spread like wildfire and turned into murmurs, and soon the sound got louder, as if everyone was shouting.

Viola wiggled her eyebrows.

“What, why are you like this?”

I thought it would be a brief commotion, but instead the stadium became even more excited.

“I can’t believe you’re going from here like this!”

“I’m thinking of seeing it through to the end!”

And Viola was finally able to understand the reason.

Becky nods his head and he goes down to the bottom of the stadium.

The crowd’s cheers got louder, but Viola didn’t have time to recognize it. Because the one she had been waiting for so long had appeared on her playing field.

The man walked toward the center of the stadium.

One step.

One step.

No footsteps were heard. However, I could feel the elegance that spread every time he moved. It was clear evidence that they were on a different level from those who had competed so far.

─!

The knights suddenly felt something that could be called a shiver. Even though it is not currently in combat.

“─!”

“─!”

People began to shout something together.

After a beat, I realized it was the man’s name.

“Flan!”

“It’s flan!”

“Flan!”

Viola suddenly felt her heart pounding. She felt her blood rushing. He instinctively felt that the moment of decisive battle had arrived in this chaotic battlefield.

The moment when Viola was about to take her steps.

“No.”

One knight climbed onto the playing field faster.

“… !”

Everyone looked at the knight’s face with shocked expressions.

“I don’t think it’s that surprising.”

“… Scarlett?”

She was Scarlett, the Knight of the Burning Fire.

“Scarlett, you?”

Everyone could not help but be shocked. This is a life-threatening match, and the capital knights knew that Flan and Scarlett were from the same family.

However, Scarlett laughed as if their reaction was strange.

“Flan and I have a story to conclude.”

Knot.

It could have been a thank you, or perhaps an apology.

Scarlett played with the pendant engraved with the pattern symbolizing her family for a while, then turned her head just once to look at her knights.

“Viola.”

I called out loud to one viola, but everyone knew. Scarlett says that at this moment she is speaking to all the knights.

“Let’s go like knights. Like a knight. With honor. Like that.”

The knight camp was covered in silence.

Scarlett turned her head again.

“Whether I win or lose, let’s go on like that. Understand?”

Everyone looked blankly at Scarlett’s back.

I see her willing to sacrifice even her clan for the honor of knights and her own chivalry.

… Something also began to boil in the hearts of the knights.
