The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken - Chapter 49



49 – Part 2 The Fall of the Princess (The Visiting Wizard) – 3

“Huh…”

Lesia, the princess who stayed up all night to finish all the paperwork.

She stretched her tired body, enjoying the sense of relief that she had finally finished all of her work.

Her body, which had not slept all day, did not relax, but her heart felt a little lighter.

“Hmm…”

However, not all hearts were light.

No matter how much work was completed, there were bound to be parts that were unclear, and now the princess had a pretty bad expression even though she had finished all the work.

The reason, of course, was a problem with the number of people in the paperwork she skipped and skipped.

“I’m not satisfied…”

To be honest, the result was not very satisfactory.

I advertised hard in the vast empire and in the world outside the empire, spending all the money I had without money, but I didn’t feel that a very good talent applied.

Of course, she couldn’t be satisfied with that, and her expression couldn’t help but be a little shaken.

“Is it okay to have a selection for the warrior party?”

And the emotion that followed was ‘concern’.

Would it be possible to achieve meaningful results even if the warriors were selected in this state?

Before she even started, she couldn’t help but feel a lot of fear.

“No. It will be fine.”

However, it would be a bad thing to worry about that already.

Trying hard to suppress her worries, Lesia let her worries go.

In the first place, even a hero like Rag came out of nowhere, so it was something he didn’t know.

It was a matter of knowing whether a really great warrior would emerge from the documents he had chosen.

“Shall I sleep?”

Anyway, with a week or so left for the selection of warriors, her heart felt lighter.

Now that I think the die has been cast, it was too wasteful to think about this and to suffer.

Because of that, I’m going to take a short break now.

Lesia got up from her office and headed to her bedroom.

“Princess. I have something to tell you.”

Just then, a secretary came into her office.

With an expression of not knowing what to do.

“Secretary Bonnard. What’s going on?”

The princess asked what the secretary was worried about.

“There is someone over there who wants to visit the princess.”

The secretary answered, trembling.

“Who is that?”

Who’s visiting the princess right now?

No matter how much I thought about it, nothing caught my eye.

So, the princess waited for the secretary’s answer while thinking about someone.

“This is a disciple of the magic tower lord Derek, called Antonis.”

“A disciple of the Mage Tower Master?”

A very unexpected name came up.

Antonis, disciple of Derek of the Magic Tower Master.

A man named Derek is a wizard of the warrior party who went with Bill to deal with the demon king, but his disciple came looking for the princess.

“Why the hell did you come to see me?”

There was no reason to visit the princess, and even if there was, the princess had no idea whatsoever.

Could it be that you are calling yourself bad? I was worried about that.

“Well, he wants to show off his skills to the princess because he wants to join the warrior party.”

However, that wasn’t the case.

The disciple named Antonis was rather the type of person the princess wanted.

As a princess who wanted someone with skills, there was no particular reason to reject him.

“I see. If that’s the case, let’s meet right now.”

I felt like I wanted to meet you right now.

Therefore, the princess, who was about to go to the bedroom, changed her plan and headed to a place where she could meet him.

When the princess headed to the prepared place, she was wearing a black magician’s suit.

There was a dull-looking man with a slight beard.

When the man saw the princess, he immediately got down on one knee and saluted her.

“Hello. Princess.”

“Yes. That is a wizard called Antonis.”

A face he hadn’t seen before, probably the author was the sorcerer named Antonis whom Secretary Bonnard had spoken of.

‘Hmm… I don’t feel like a normal wizard, does it?’

To be honest, the first impression didn’t look very good.

The tribe of wizards were those who studied.

Although they do not have the title of nobility, their popularity and value are quite high as they devote themselves to study and research on magic.

If the nobles were excluded, the noble blood-like people the princess wanted would be magicians.

That’s why the princess had a very good understanding of wizards and wanted to be close to them.

However, the magician named Antonio in front of him was the complete opposite of that feeling.

Unlike normal wizards who wear cute clothes, dress neatly, and are formal.

The mage named Antonis had a slight hint of vulgarity.

I guess you could say it was a bit dirty.

Of course, the meaning of the word dirty was not a hygienic meaning, but a story about the emotional part.

‘Well, it must be a simple feeling.’

Still, Antonis was a person with the status of a wizard.

A wizard who thinks the princess is of noble blood.

Therefore, discrimination was put aside.

“The reason you came to me was to become a wizard for the newly created warrior party, right?”

“Yes, it is.”

And now, Antonio was a wizard who had personally visited the princess.

Of course, no matter how bad the outward appearance is, there is no choice but to like it.

After putting in the little things, the princess continued her conversation with him.

It was quite likable in this part.

This courageous and responsible part was a very satisfying part for the princess.

“Then can I see your magic skills right away?”

But, after all, it must be supported by magic skills to be meaningful.

The princess immediately wanted to see his skills.

It was because it was the first thing to see firsthand what kind of magic skills she had, and whether she wanted to visit the princess and join the soon-to-be-made warrior party.

The princess instructed Antonio to use her magic.

“Yes. I’ll show you right away. Princess.”

Antonio started the magic prepared for the princess.

“…”

As Antonio began to cast his spell, black dust rose all around him.

Then, the dust created a gust of wind, and the gust grew bigger and bigger.

At first glance, an explosive, riotous black gust.

However, the black gust was manipulated too easily by Antonio.

Antonio, who handles the gusts freely, he has shown his ability by moving the gusts around.

A few minutes later, as if it were over, a black gust of wind rose up into the sky.

“wow…”

Antonio’s ability can definitely be said to be amazing.

With this level of strength, I had an intuition that I could play an active part in the battle against the demon lord.

Antonio It was clear that this wizard was a thing.

For this reason, the princess couldn’t help but admire.

But…

“by the way…”

An uneasy feeling had to arise in her mind.

Because she knew the true nature of this magic, this somewhat ominous magic.

“Isn’t this black magic?”

The princess knows.

That the identity of this magic is black magic.

“Yes. That’s right. I am a warlock.”

Antonio immediately answered the princess’ question.

He readily revealed his identity.

“Sigh…”

The princess had no choice but to place her hand on her forehead.

“Secretary Bonnard. Isn’t black magic forbidden by the Empire?”

And I had no choice but to ask the secretary next to me.

Why on earth do warlocks exist in the Empire?

It didn’t make any sense that magic was banned under imperial law, so I questioned the secretary.

“Hmm… Well, this is what I’ve been doing…”

The secretary spat out the words as if he was a little shy.

It’s illegal in the first place, but it can’t be helped.

That was black magic.

The secretary told me that.

‘What do we do?’

The princess couldn’t help but feel very embarrassed.

His skills are good, but he’s a black magician.

It’s really all right, but that one too much hindered her decision.

Because of this, she had no choice but to continue her worries.

“Princess. I am stronger than the Mage Tower Lord. Please choose me as a warrior party. I want to prove to the world that black magicians are discriminated against.”

Antonio spoke to the princess as if complaining.

His eyes were filled with sadness and a strong will to achieve something.

“Hmm… Derek is excellent at all the magic he can use, even the amount of mana. Why are you saying that?”

Of course, I didn’t know such a will.

Stronger than the Magic Tower Lord?

Those words drew the princess’s attention.

Since the position of Master of the Mage is by no means a light position, I asked Antonio again because I wanted to know what he was talking about, a wizard stronger than that.

“That’s a story only people who don’t know. In the first place, the owner of a magic tower is determined by the results of research, not by battle.”

Antonio went on to explain about him.

He informed the princess that even if the mage master was excellent in terms of magical knowledge and talent, he was the best among wizards in terms of combat skills.

“Hmm…”

The princess was still worried about those words.

If that statement is true, it would probably be very helpful to receive it as a warrior party.

Obviously, Antonio’s skills were great.

“No. I can’t do that either.”

But, that didn’t work either.

The Warlock and the Empire could not officially cooperate.

Black magic that was like a dark shadow that had never existed in the 700-year history of the empire.

Joining hands with them was never right in terms of her values.

“Please go back now. I won’t ask you for the sin of using black magic by buying the courage and loyalty that came to you like this.”

So, in the end, it was rejected.

The princess turned her back on Antonio.

“I see… that’s unfortunate…”

Antonio stood up from his seat and greeted the princess.

And he left his seat sadly.
