The Vengeance – Crazy Wizard Becomes a Teacher - Chapter 190
Only Krnovel
Episode 190
Unlike Innocent, who focuses on combat, the Imperial Court Mage Exam consists of only practical and written exams, and even in this practical exam, there is no proper ‘battle’.
Even if there were 50 magicians from the imperial court who were said to have mastered magic, if a situation like this came up, they would panic and become no different from other ordinary people.
‘I guess I should go back after this. This would be the target level. If there’s more, I might draw a magic circle… … .’
The attacker decided so and tried to leave.
It was then.
An intense light emanated from the very back of the conference room.
“”
“uh?”
Someone’s chant.
Along with that, flames danced towards the attacker.
The attacker evaded the attack with a quick reaction, but the flames curved in the air like a whip and targeted the attacker.
“this!”
Quang!
An attacker engulfed in violently burning flames.
The remaining flames returned to the caster like a living snake.
This is the mediation magic called .
And the user who used this magic was none other than Fleur.
‘phew… thank god… Luckily it’s not too late.’
As soon as the situation occurred, Fleur hid under the table and quickly drew a magic circle.
I needed to draw a magic circle that was as simple as possible and easy to inject magic into, so I used a simple magic called , but it had decent power and, above all, it was easy to hit the agile attacker.
‘There was no sign that the opponent had drawn a magic circle. Then you will suffer damage from this intermediate magic!’
The mages cheered as they saw Fleur, who was breathing heavily due to the emergency situation, and the attackers engulfed in fierce flames.
‘good!’
The attacker showed no sign of coming out of the flames.
Unless he had Pia’s level of magic, there was no way he could block the firepower of each magic with instant magic, and unless he had Ray’s level of realization, there was no way he could have drawn and blocked each magic in an instant.
Moreover, even if he had a separate magic circle, there was no sign of using it, so it must have worked properly this time.
Fleur clenched her fists, confident of success.
but… … .
“hmm… “It’s okay.”
“… … ?!”
“It’s different from other guys. “I’ll admit it.”
Surprisingly, the attacker walked out of the flames.
“Oh my… medical charge… … .”
“Did you block it with defensive magic?”
“no! “All my clothes are burned!”
As one of the magicians said, was not stopped with defensive magic.
The reason you can tell is because the thick coat the attacker wore to hide his body was burned and full of holes.
“hmm… If we retreat like this… “It’s different from the purpose.”
The attacker muttered that, then bent his knees and prepared to leap.
Then he stepped on the table in front and jumped.
No, it’s not just a jump… … .
Quang!
The moment you take off, you jump at such a high speed that the ground ruptures.
Literally in the blink of an eye, the attacker’s masked face appeared before Fleur, who was at the back of the room.
“ah… … .”
‘dead.’
The moment I thought that, Fleur saw it.
Beyond that coat full of holes… … .
“This… … .”
The identity of the attacker.
And at the same time, the attacker’s hand blade flew towards Fleur’s neck.
“Ray… … !”
* * *
Tuk.
Ray’s pen fell.
Ray picked up the pen again, turned it around, and concentrated on his work again.
Perhaps because all the imperial court mages had left the meeting, there was no one in the teacher’s office except Ray.
“ha… … .”
Perhaps because there was no one there, Ray sighed openly.
‘If what the doctor said is true… What the hell is that… … .’
Ray is still thinking about what the doctor said.
What the doctor said didn’t seem like a lie.
That’s why I’m worried.
The doctor said that his goal was to exterminate the 12 families.
The reason why the 12 families tried to capture Ray this time was because the doctor encouraged them to do so.
―Why did you induce it like that?
-I needed a reason.
-Justice?
-okay. Justification for the downfall of the 12 families.
Well, you couldn’t have caused the downfall just because you wanted to.
Even though Ray has power, the reason he doesn’t destroy all 12 families is because he doesn’t have the confidence to clean things up.
But someone is said to be bringing down the 12 families… Besides, if you can handle the cleanup… … .
‘… ‘Is it good?’
Someone will take revenge on your behalf. Isn’t that a good thing?
You don’t even have to get your hands dirty.
It’s not for nothing that I have an obsession with taking revenge with my own hands.
The reason why Ray gets his hands dirty is because they are the 12 families that even the emperor cannot touch, not because he is a person who is satisfied with getting his hands dirty.
‘I’m sure it would be like that… … .’
Has it already become colored? For some reason, my feelings are complicated.
Ray looked at his palm and then clenched his fist.
As I was thinking that, the door to the teacher’s office burst open and Diego came in, sweating.
“Ray Vallière!”
“It’s a surprise. what… what.”
“We’re in big trouble. In a few hours ago… “Itaris Imperial Castle has been attacked!”
“and… “There are a lot of crazy people in this world.”
Ray responded indifferently.
Basically, when entering the imperial castle, you have to go through numerous inspections.
Are there any magic circles or hidden weapons?
In addition, a magic circle that seals the flow of magical power is drawn at the entrance to the castle to counteract stealth magic, making it virtually impossible to attack from the front.
Even if they manage to get through the inspection and enter, there is no way the raid will be successful when there are Laura, numerous knights, imperial court mages, etc. who are always staying in the imperial castle.
“Oh, by the way, didn’t I say there was a meeting of court mages at the imperial castle today?”
“yes.”
“Then it’s a bigger problem~ I don’t know who the guy who attacked was, but it didn’t work out.”
Ray shrugged and shook his head at the attacker’s foolish choice.
However, contrary to Ray’s expectations, the news that Diego delivered was completely different from Ray’s expectations.
“What did you just hear me say?”
“What are you listening to?”
“We were attacked! “There was damage!”
“… what?”
Ray’s pupils got bigger.
No matter how much Ray did this, this was quite embarrassing and he almost tripped over his chair when he tried to get up from his seat.
After taking his stance again, Ray asked Diego again.
“What are you talking about? Was there any damage? What is the extent of the damage? No, more than anything… “Laura!”
“I guess something happened when Laura wasn’t there. “Laura is currently handling the situation.”
And when Laura isn’t there… … .
‘The doctor, that bastard… Are you planning on hiding it?’
Ray suddenly became very irritated and scratched his head.
Then, all of a sudden, I felt like my heart was being squeezed.
Ray asked Diego without knowing the reason.
“What is the extent of the damage?”
“Fourteen deaths. There are seven injured. Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor is safe.”
“Seven out of fourteen… “Were there a lot of attackers?”
“They say there’s only one person.”
“… … ?”
‘What… … .’
Ray frowned as if he couldn’t understand.
“Is there a position called a court mage…?” “Was it actually a place to select stupid people?”
“I heard the magic didn’t work.”
“Are you a child who knows how to disassemble magic?”
“Then are you the culprit?”
“… “I see.”
‘That’s how it goes.’
“I would like to ask you as a bonus… “What were you doing about 30 minutes ago?”
“I was working here. Don’t have unnecessary doubts. So, the culprit was caught?”
“no. They said that right before Laura arrived, she used the magic circle and ran away. No wait… “Isn’t this only for you?”
Diego’s eyes grew more and more suspicious.
Ray changed the topic because he felt like he would truly be pointed out as a suspect if things continued like this.
“Were there any imperial court mages among the dead?”
“They are all court mages. So I just got a call from the school. “It looks like some of the teachers have died as well.”
“Hmm… Some of the teachers… … .”
Ray did not feel any sympathy for the deaths of the imperial court mages, and as he tried to repeat what Diego had said, he felt a part of his heart that had just been crushed sink.
‘What is this feeling?’
someday… It’s a feeling I felt once.
Yes, it’s a bit old, but even after 8 years, it still feels vivid.
‘Why now… … ?’
The moment Ray asked himself that question, he was conditionally calling out to Diego.
“hey… Diego.”
“huh? what?”
“Flur… “What about the teacher?”
“Master Fleur? “You mean Teacher Fleur Trueheart?”
“okay.”
‘what… ? Why am I asking this? Also, belonging to the Imperial Court Mage? No, since we’re the same teacher, it’s okay to ask how he’s doing.’
Ray immediately shook his head and organized some of his thoughts.
After hearing Ray’s question, Diego searched his memories for a moment, then snapped his fingers and said.
“Ah, I heard that the teacher of the Trueheart family was injured while facing an attacker.”
“injury… is it.”
After hearing Diego’s words, I felt a mix of worry and relief.
If it is an injury, it can be treated.
Fortunately, the place where the incident occurred is an imperial castle full of magic circles that can heal any damage, so it will definitely heal you completely.
As he was thinking that, the words that came out of Diego’s mouth made Ray’s heart sink once again.
“The wounds have all healed, but the problem is the memories… “Did you say you lost it?”
“… what? memory?”
‘You lost your memory? Does this mean he has amnesia?’
“What are you talking about? “Tell me straight.”
“I don’t know either. “To begin with, I just heard this story.”
“Then find out somehow!”
“what?”
Ray’s face turned pale, he threw down what he was doing, jumped up from his seat, pushed Diego away, and started running down the hallway.
* * *
‘Nonsense. Memory loss isn’t something that happens that easily… … .’
It’s not some third-rate novel.
Ray ran down the hallway and called Laura.
I couldn’t even remember the recent expulsion from Innocent by Laura.
For now it’s just… … .
[huh? ray?]
“Laura! “Are you in Hwangseong now?”
[uh? Uh… radish… what’s the matter?]
“Is Ms. Fleur among the injured now?”
[Oh, yes. Mr. Fleur of the Trueheart family. I just finished treatment. But why?]
“He remembers… “No, is there any problem with him?”
[memory? problem? ah… huh… … .]
Laura’s silence bothered Ray even more.
[There was a bit of a problem. When we first arrived, Mr. Fleur was on the verge of dying… Fortunately, the treatment was completely done with magic… The problem is that even though the treatment is over, certain parts of the memory do not come back… … .]
“A specific part?”
[huh. The part where the intruder entered. Obviously, the treatment was perfect.]
“Is that all?”
[huh… I think that’s all I know for now. This person was involved in something like this during the last school attack… … .]
Laura’s voice contained a hint of sympathy for her.
After hearing Laura’s words, Ray was overcome with relief.
It’s not that I lost all my memories, but if I only lost the memories of the attack, there wouldn’t be any problem.
I don’t think it would be a good memory anyway.
Ray stopped jumping.
As soon as I stopped walking, I found myself leaving the school and heading towards the Imperial Castle.
He said he was dumbfounded and leaned his back against a nearby wall.
‘by the way… The culprit who attacked was probably a doctor. And the reason for the attack… … .’
Knowing the Doctor’s purpose and what he was hiding, it wasn’t that difficult for Ray to figure out what their purpose was.
‘I guess they’re planning to do something within this year.’
