243 – The Most Advanced Wizard-2
Becoming a magic tower lord is not an easy task, as you might expect.
As a magician, it was basic to have excellent knowledge and skills, and in order to be treated as a proper magic tower owner, one had to submit various papers within the magic tower and implicitly create unique magic.
“…Are you serious? “Leonardo?”
But all the magic tower owners present could not dismiss that inarticulate claim as bullsh*t.
If another prominent wizard had made the same claim, the magic tower owners would have snorted and refuted it, but now they could not bear to deny it and had to confirm Leo’s intention again.
“I’m not cheerful enough to say this jokingly.”
It has been a long time since Leo had the basis and ability to say that.
Leonardo is already more capable than the current magic tower owner, including his knowledge of magic, writing a thesis, and creating his own unique magic.
If you add in the title of disciple of a wise man, there was a legitimate justification for establishing a completely new magic tower.
“…It’s okay to say this, but becoming a magic tower master cannot be solved with just skill. “Regardless of whether you are competent, there is a possibility that it can actually become a bondage.”
White Tower Lord Aspi did not feel that the position of Magic Tower Lord was very useful.
The magic tower lord is not only a wizard, but also the leader of a group, and is responsible for not only researching magic but also leading the group.
This means that he must personally manage and take responsibility for the budget and policies of Jeoktap, which aided and abetted the research on his mother.
It was not something that could be recommended mentally or rationally.
“It’s not an easy task, but it’s not impossible. “If you think about it, isn’t the Red Tower’s magic path the one that best suits me among the magic towers?”
That is certainly not a false claim.

One of the reasons why Leo declined to become the successor to the Black Tower Lord was because of his lack of knowledge of magic tools and production skills.
The Black Tower was established for the purpose of allowing many people, even non-magicians, to use magic.
Leonardo, who is relatively weak in magic arts, should reasonably not have been given the position of the Black Tower.
However, the Jeoktap existed for the purpose of being accepted in the same context.
“No wizard from the current Red Tower can beat me head-on.”
“…It’s sad that I can’t refute it.”
Blue Tower owner Blois, who had fought Leonardo head-on once, had to be convinced as he frowned.
Combat skills demonstrated by a wizard under his 20s.
The fighting method that utilized all 100% of the magic he used and applied it evenly to his martial arts was worthy of being called a work of art.
Moreover, after the death of Jein Narsha, the owner of the Red Tower, the wizards who remained in the Red Tower were, to put it kindly, insufficient to be called outstanding.
If there were people like that, the corruption of the Red Tower would not have eroded into the Magic Tower so secretly.
“…But I have to admit that the backlash is severe. “It would be difficult to understand that you are a Jeoktap owner when you are not from Jeoktap.”
As for the rumor, not all magic tower owners directly brought it up, even if only implicitly.
All the magic tower owners present knew that Leonardo was not so stupid as to not be aware of these rumors and conspiracies.
Nevertheless, there was concern in my heart.
Will Leo, who is a vessel divined by the devil and has a history of using black magic once, be accepted as the lord of the Red Tower?
Doubts about him still remained in the form of concerns.
“Jane Nyarsha, the lord of the Red Tower, operated without external problems even while he was in secret with the devil.”
Leonardo was even able to penetrate the psychology of the magic tower owners.
However, the seriousness of their concerns was limited to the normal magic tower run by them.
“Unlike knights, wizards have no complaints even if their lord changes as long as they do their job.”
You may not know what it looks like on the surface, but the inside of the Red Tower is already raging with politics and is steadily heading towards collapse.
There would be nothing to hide from such a group of wizards.
“Even if it is a vessel that the devil has divined.”
[It seems like your decision has already been made.]
Bernan smiled with a smile on his face, unable to support himself properly while relying on a wheelchair.
If that is the young man’s choice, I have no reason to oppose it.
[I agree. Isn’t this a car that was plagued with problems with the red tower anyway?]
The atmosphere took the form of a vote.
The Master of Magic Tower had already recognized this topic as a possible story.
“I also agree. Right now, the Red Tower needs someone to run the system, even if only temporarily. “As long as you do the basics, there will be no problem.”
Following the black top stock, the blue top stock also expressed approval.
With Leonardo’s ability and the wise man’s help, we will be able to keep the collapsing red tower in order even if we continue our current activities.
“I’m not against it either. There are problems like those related to Reinhardt and the Demon King’s vessel… But if you can solve them yourself, I can’t be against it.”
Aspi, Lord of the White Tower, not only did not object, but did not hide her skeptical opinion.
Although Leonardo himself did not hold Reinhardt’s direct position, most people would not deny that Leo was Reinhardt’s central figure.
It wouldn’t be surprising if there was opposition to it within the Magic Tower.
In addition to the problem of the devil’s vessel, we cannot rule out the possibility that the effect mentioned by Leonardo may actually have a negative effect.
“I don’t know if it’s permission for the Red Tower owner, but I can’t help you persuade the Red Tower wizard. Still, it might be possible…”
“It is possible. “That’s exactly what I want to ask the magic tower owners in the first place.”
Even though there was a sure way to persuade the enemy tower, there was not only one way. With the help of the wise man, the last resort had already been prepared.
Seeing Leo’s confident eyes, Aspi Illinan exhaled and acknowledged, as if she had lifted both her hands and feet.
“Ha… I don’t even know what to say, but I think he’s older than me.”
“I experienced more than I expected.”
Leonardo was superior to the magic tower owners not only in the qualitative aspect of time but also in the quantitative aspect.
The magic tower lord unanimously gave permission to at least become the red tower lord.
“Apart from the story, where is the wise man? “It seemed like I couldn’t even feel the spirit form earlier…”
I couldn’t ask right away because the business was important, but not only the Cheongtap lord but other magic tower lords were also curious.
It was the academic instinct of a wizard to want to face the wise man even for a minute.
“…Ah… The wise man… Is chatting with an old friend. “I can’t tell you any more than that.”
[This is an old friend. Now that I think about it, there has been a lot of commotion at the temple recently. Does that have something to do with it?]
“I won’t deny it.”
The reason I can’t talk about the wise men and saints right now is not because I can’t trust them in terms of information.
I just didn’t want to break the old innocence of those magicians any further than this.

“Is that why you became a Jeoktapju?”
“Are you okay? “From Knight Leonardo…”
[Hey!! Do not come!! Go away!! hehehehe!!]
“Yes, this is a necessary method not only to control enemy towers, but also to conduct a more detailed investigation into my mother…”
{Sage!! Stop fussing and come!!}
I truly thought it was the right choice not to properly explain it to the Mage Tower owner.
The depravity of the two young men who conquered an era and laid the foundation for the present era was shocking even to those who knew them.
“Take care of yourself!”
“Oh, you two, please be quiet!!”
The successors of these two, Lumine and Leo, could not stand it any longer and scolded them in anger.
At any other time, I was having an important conversation, so I couldn’t afford to just sit back and listen to that kind of comical skit.
[Don’t do that to me, do that to that bastard!! Leo, you put my body like this in the first place…!]
{Ah, sorry. Because our wise man is very angry.}
Angela ignored the wise man’s antalism with the terrifying hydraulic pressure of her chest. The wise man who was struggling soon had no choice but to give up due to the limitations of his small body.
“So, to continue, I haven’t become a redtop owner yet. Even if there is agreement from other magic tower owners, if more than half of the people on the enemy tower are against it, even I have no choice.”
Therefore, it was customary for each magic tower owner to work for his/her magic tower for a long time before ascending to his/her position.
Common sense tells us that if such a person has the ability, there is no reason for a magician to oppose him other than politics.
“It’s not just about that… Are you okay? “While also serving as the head of the Reinhardt family…”
Ariasviel had no doubt about Leo’s capabilities and capabilities.
On the contrary, even if Leo usurped the throne, Ariasviel would confidently follow him and even have the will to help in the coup.
But Leo is also a human being. As he experiences physical stamina and mental fatigue, it accumulates and weighs him down.
“According to my position, I am the head of the house, Lady Aria. Nominally, there is no problem.”
“Still… I think you’ll be so exhausted… Even if it weren’t for that problem, I think it would be hard to digest it all…”
Ariaspil could only hope that Leonardo would take care of himself and get some rest.
He was clearly doing his job diligently, but right now Leonardo was focusing on his work to the point where it seemed excessive.
Fiercely, as if burning itself.
I couldn’t help but be worried.
“Well, actually, you don’t have to worry too much about accounting and internal soldier management, as Reinhardt is being held tightly by Scilica and Gladio.”
In fact, Reinhardt’s internal affairs are so thorough that they are almost complete.
In the first place, even ordinary soldiers reached 1-star mana training, so they were able to deal with elite troops from other groups.
Silica, originally from the top, managed accounting and budget management without any problems.
We can be sure that Reinhardt’s situation would have changed if the Senate had worked a little more since the appearance of the Demon King was delayed by 1-2 years.
“There is a way to control the enemy tower in my own way, and it would be okay for the wise man to act as a replacement for leadership.”
[Ask my doctor and decide. Uh?!]
Why would you do that if you have free time?
Although he grumbled like that, he did it right.
As if to prove his thoughts, the wise man sighed and said that he understood.
It’s really easy to understand.
“…Still, surprisingly, the magic tower owners obediently give permission. “I thought there would be some opposition.”
Marken looked at Leonardo in surprise.
I thought we would be a little more sensitive to the devil’s vessel and black magic, but I was not sure that there would be unanimous approval.
“I contributed something, and I definitely managed my magic skills and image.”
Now, for Leonardo, it was worth taking on the risk of being the devil.
That will be no exception for Reinhardt.
‘…If you don’t have the ability, it’s right to leave early.’
In the past, I should have gone to Reinhardt for that reason.
“I’m glad there wasn’t much to talk about.”
“…Of course.”
Leonardo naturally pondered what the Blacktop Master had said at Chris’s innocuous words.
Actually, there wasn’t much to talk about.
However, it was too light and uncomfortable to bring up such a story in this situation.
“You know? Regarding Black Tower Lord Bernan Verdein’s question. “I said I would ask her mother.”
Ain also pushed Leo into trouble without any malice. Even Leo himself did not expect that Ain would be such an honest child that he would face such a crisis.
“…That…”
“…If it’s about me, you don’t have to feel pressured. “If it’s a difficult question to ask, there are ways to gloss over it.”
Ariasviel listened to Leo’s opinion with a calmer and more benevolent expression than usual.
In about a few months, Aria Spiel has developed a more mature mentality compared to knights or noble ladies of her age.
…Yes, because we decided to trust each other.
Because we love each other, we should trust each other more.
“The Lord of the Black Tower really wants to go to her wedding, so she asked me to tell you when she would do it. hahahaha… I don’t know when I’ll go…”
Although I was saying this with a smile, it was a somewhat burdensome story for Leo.
It’s not just that I’m worried about the terminally ill Black Tower owner.
I continued to be concerned about Ariasviel’s feelings.
He is practically the devil’s spare body.
When you think about it in the long term, it is no wonder that you feel fear and rejection when it comes to physiological life, children, and parenting issues.
Still, I wanted to have some expectations.
The young lady has always been actively positive about that kind of thing…
“…Gyeol…Marriage?! “That… That…”
Aria, who normally would have smiled brightly and loved it, was busy trembling with her whole body and crackling with her mouth.
‘…As expected…Because of me…’
It’s natural to feel burdened. What are you leaning on?
It’s selfish of her to think that everyone will accept her as a lover.
[…More than that, what exactly is your relationship?]
The wise man also asked the question without malice this time.
It was because I wanted to make sure this opportunity.
“Ah… It’s a romantic relationship!”
“It’s a master-slave relationship. Yes!”
The words conflicted with each other.
Aria said it was a master-slave relationship.
Leo said it was a romantic relationship.
That day, a crack broke in the two people’s world.
