Archmage Transcending Through Regression Chapter 13

Episode 13

In general, circles cannot be created properly unless enlightenment precedes them.

Of course, even if enlightenment is not preceded, it is not that there is no way to create a circle that exceeds the limit.

But they are called the evil ways.

Of course, there is a corresponding price, too.

“Your inferiority complex to your father must have made you impatient. That’s probably why he touched the apostle.”

“Even the hell…As soon as I

finished my words, Viscount Nostra stepped back with a pale face.

“Uh, how did that…! Could it be that His Excellency heard you?! That means that I had my hand on the Apostle, and Aidan…!”

He spoke gibberish with a look of bewilderment.

Then he laughed as if he had given up on everything and shouted at me.

“That’s right! Were you prepared for that duel in the first place! With your Excellency from the beginning…!”

“Stop stepping on your feet.”

I let out a small sigh and looked at him with a pitiful expression.

“Didn’t you already reveal your bottom line in the duel? In the first place, when I succeeded in triple-casting the 4th circle, I felt something strange.”

“What…?! How can I get my condition just that much…”

“Heart.”

I pointed to the heart of Viscount Nostra and said.

“I was holding on to the heart. Isn’t that a common symptom of mages whose circles are in danger?”

“…!”

“In addition, there is also multi-casting in the 4th circle, which is impossible at the 7th circle stage.”

“What is this…Viscount

Nostra stuttered and looked at me in disbelief.

he spoke with difficulty.

“Considering that I am Walpurgis, I don’t think it’s particularly strange. Isn’t it?”

“…Do you mean talent?”

“Well, it’s not just that.”

There is no reason to say more.

Since Viscount Nostra has already formed a priestly relationship with me, he has no choice but to cooperate with me.

“Anyway, I promise. I can’t live long in your condition now. But if you try to do something more on your own, it will only make things worse.”

“My life as a mage…”

“No no.”

I pretended to cut my throat and told him.

“You just die.”

“…?!”

Hearing my words, he reflexively examined my heart.

I can’t guess anything.

It would have taken me a while to simply dismiss my voice as bullshit.

“Ah, anyway, S…The monk is the 4th circle. You might know more about my situation…“

Of course, I didn’t say this thinking that you would particularly believe me.”

I immediately reached out to Viscount Nostra.

“What…?!”

“look.”

I touched Viscount Nostra’s heart with my fist.

“…Ka ugh?!”

Then he trembled all over and fell helplessly to the ground.

“This nothing…Son?!”

“I didn’t go properly and entered the 7th circle with Yamae, so this division came out. You don’t know what you need to know.”

Viscount Nostra piled up circles. It’s not just that the 7th circle was piled up like that.

Everything up to the 6th circle is badly done that way.

That means that as a high-circle magician, he lacked the knowledge and enlightenment he needed to know.

“Ka uh…?!”

“Does your heart hurt like it would break? It’s like this because the circle wasn’t formed properly.”

I smirked as I looked at him rolling on the ground.

“Do you want to live? If you want to live, just nod your head twice.”

“…!”

He desperately nodded.

“good. then help me There is only one way. Taking out the mana from the ring you built up with wild animals.”

“…?!”

“By the way, I plan to absorb that mana myself.”

I benefit from absorbing mana, and he benefits from being able to restore broken circles.

So-called WIN-WIN strategy.

“It’s you, you’re going to roll into the 5th circle, but it’s okay! Since I have a teacher, I can do anything.”

“…!”

“Thank you so much? haha what I am more grateful.”

Viscount Nostra’s eyes trembled.

A face that looks like life has collapsed.

Of course it doesn’t matter.

I will do it even if I don’t like it.

“Then let’s begin.”

With that said, I reached out my hand to him.

* * *

How much time has passed.

“Um, circle 5 achieved.”

Hey, it’s easy to become a 5th circle.

really.

I smiled and opened my eyes.

Then, the first to see Viscount Nostra with a devastated expression.

It seemed like a few years old at once.

“My circle…”

“Thank you? That I removed the bomb that was about to explode.”

“that…!”

Viscount Nostra gritted his teeth and tried to shout something at me.

However, he soon lowered his head.

“Isn’t it the 5th circle? The circle that I worked hard to build is like this…”

“A circle you worked hard to build? no It’s not a circle, it’s a cancer mass removed.”

that’s for sure

No matter what he thought, the circle he had built as an apostle was slowly killing him.

…That’s why I ended up succumbing to the devil’s temptation before returning.

“Anyway, it’s a circle that was built up because of an inferiority complex towards my father. It’s a sham that has no meaning and only looks good on the outside.”

“Still, the 7th circle is the 7th circle.”

“What is the meaning of the 7th circle that you can’t even use properly? Just because a child learns to walk doesn’t make them an adult.”

“that…”

I said, glaring at him.

“Do you think your father didn’t know about your nervousness?”

“…!”

Shivering, Viscount Nostra looked at me.

“His Excellency was seeing through everything…Are you talking?”

“of course. You look at the 8th Circle mage too lightly.”

I didn’t know either.

Dad knew everything.

It was fatherly to pretend not to know until the end, but it wasn’t a very good way.

Viscount Nostra looked at me blankly.

“entire…all…?”

“Do you know what I mean? How futile it was that you tried to use me.”

“….”

He didn’t answer for a while.

Of course, I knew that Viscount Nostra couldn’t completely change this much.

“…What are you thinking of me?”

“I intend to watch.”

once grown up.

“As a teacher.”

“haha…He

laughed helplessly as if he lost his circle and lost his miasma.

“I am a disciple…A teacher at this age…haha…Viscount

Nostra muttered with a depressed expression.

“You don’t have a choice.”

“I guess so. Yes, it is true that I do not have a choice.”

Then he quietly bowed his head to me.

in a very respectful manner.

“I will accept it, Master.”

* * *

A few days later, I decided to organize my thoughts while sitting in a chair.

“…First of all, I think I put on the first button safely.”

Whether internally or externally, the urgent fire was extinguished. Of course, it’s at the ‘urgent’ level.

Considering the disaster that will come later, this is not a solution.

That would also be

“…Seven years from now.”

Exactly seven years from now, the demon will be resurrected as Cassandra prophesied.

The consequences of ignoring the prophecy were disastrous.

The world was completely unprepared to face the demon’s existence, and the demon’s power was too strong….

It was an incomplete advent.

However, even though he couldn’t regain his strength, there was no one who could take the demon’s blow.

The Empire realized that fact when Kelbaion of the Iron Wall, the 7th rank of the Imperial Knight, was crushed by the Demon God.

By then everything was too late.

Belatedly, he tried to summon heroes and fight against them, but half of the empire was eroded by demons.

Of course, humanity did not do anything.

The temple belatedly selected a warrior and formed a subjugation party after selecting the right heroes.

okay.

That’s the subjugation squad I belonged to.

It is “Argo”.

“If you think so…After all, the most important thing at this point is Cassandra.”

Poor prophet Cassandra, whom no one believed in.

She was a younger girl than me.

He was about 2 years younger than me, so he must be about 18 now.

She coughed up blood and warned everyone of disaster, but no one listened.

and went missing

It was all the more tragic because his whereabouts were not known until the end.

predictive ability.

Although the premise is that ‘no one believed it’, her prophecy was true anyway.

“I’ll have to go to the temple to be selected as a hero anyway.”

The selection of warriors, which was talked about as ‘Cassandra’s prophecy’ before returning, naturally became non-existent.

because nobody believed it.

Naturally, Cassandra was abandoned.

A prophecy that nobody believes means nothing.

What became of her after that is unknown, but it probably never ended well.

…Now that I’ve returned, I don’t intend to leave it that way anymore.

Because I will intervene in the selection of the hero this time.

okay.

I won’t give ‘that bastard’ time to be chosen as a hero.

“Yeah, that bastard…“

Ah, just thinking about it makes my head warm again.

If it wasn’t for that bastard, so many knights and wizards wouldn’t have died in vain.

There is nothing more uglier than hypocrisy.

There are people who call hypocrisy good, but as a result, if it harms many people, it becomes evil rather than good.

The kid wouldn’t have known that fact until the moment he died.

“…Tsk.”

I clicked my tongue briefly and tapped the pen holder on the table.

First of all, since they brought in Lian, they should be able to preoccupy the upper hand in the selection of ‘heroes’.

if so then

“What shall we do with Cassandra?”

According to my memory, Cassandra would not be in the temple at this time.

He mentioned the prophecy, but no one believed it, and he must have run out of the temple because of it.

“I don’t know where she is at this point…”

That’s the problem.

I need to contact Cassandra as soon as possible, but I don’t know where she is.

But then.

jump.

“Bocchan, now…As I was thinking about this and that ,

recalling a rough plan, I opened the door and the butler came in.

As soon as the butler entered, he looked at me with wide eyes.

“…What were you doing?”

“No, it’s nothing. Is there anything more to it than that?”

“Ah, a guest. It seems that the young master has a business.”

If you are a visitor, there is something to expect.

“Is that Rian Paslov?”

“How did you know?”

“I thought it was about time to come. Guide me.”

The butler nodded and led me to where Lian was.

* * *

“You’re here!”

Upon arriving at the drawing room, Lian jumped up and shouted.

“Here you are, the training method!”

“Oh yes.”

I roughly answered Lian’s words and sat across from him.

“You came sooner than expected. You must have been pretty busy with engagement matters.”

“engagement? under. Training is several times more important than that. I didn’t really want anything like an engagement in the first place.”

“is it.”

“More than that, let’s get to the point.”

Rian continued, waving her hand as if she didn’t want to talk about it any further.

“Come on, tell me how to train.”

“Ah yes, that’s what I mean.”

The Mullière Auror training method is the highest level of training method recognized by the self and others.

Of course, its value is also priceless.

To be honest, it’s a valuable item that deserves to be a little more conditional here.

“Let me attach one more condition.”

“…what?”

Ryan frowned.

“What kind of trick is this all of a sudden? Wasn’t the price going to the temple with you and the prophecy?”

“that’s right. Just want to add one more thing here. It’s not a proposition that will hurt you either.”

“…say it.”

The guy staring at me.

No, it’s not going to hurt you, so what are you staring at?

I got straight to the point.

“Your Youngji. Do you have a problem?”

“Troublesome?”

“Yes, the dungeon.”

At that moment, the boy’s eyes fluttered lightly.

It was short but enough.

Well, of course you know.

It’s literally the troublesome thing and the worst ‘disgraceful part’ of Count Paslov’s family.

At least at this point.

But the future will be different.

distant future.

“I am kind of interested.”

That dungeon becomes hope.
