212. Magic Tower Lord Arya Suppelent – The Truth That Is Hard to Answer (2)
***
“Huh… .”
I let out a faint sound and put my eyes on the cadet in front of me.
A special yet heterogeneous strange atmosphere coexists between the looks that have not yet disappeared.
The fact that he was different from the average person caught my eye instantly.
“…”
It was ‘more than I thought’ even while looking at the black eyes that only stared at me as if they had hardened.
A feeling of oppression, as if being weighed down by the dense mana that was expressed within me. That’s something you need to be much more sensitive to mana to be able to feel it quickly, but only one cadet reacted to me before the distance was reduced.
Compared to other insignificant cadets… to the extent that it can be evaluated as a special ‘gemstone’.
“that’s interesting.”
He spat out a word and touched the stiff student’s shoulder to relieve his body.
“…ah.”
Watching him exhale properly only then, along with the death sentence, he carefully scanned the cadet’s body from bottom to top.
Certainly…not bad.
The body reflected in my eyes was definitely tamed by mana.
Even considering that he is an adult, his body is surprisingly adapted to mana, and even the nature of mana dwelling in his body is felt to be heterogeneous.
And that ‘heterogeneity’ was enough to make me interested.
“S, Master?”
Glancing at Esia, who appeared belatedly beside me, seemed to feel a little better.
I didn’t like the fact that my dear student whom I met after a long time was working as an instructor, but I still feel like I’ve found an unexpected gemstone.
“The name Hancheonseong, right?”
“…Yes.”
“Do you have time?”
“Yes, but… .”
“Good. Please talk to me for a moment.”
Saying that, without hesitation, he grabbed Han Chun-seong’s hand with his right hand, and also held Esia’s hand with his left hand.
snap. snap!
“!?”
“… !”
Each of them expresses magic as if they are breathing, with their eyes filled with different surprised reactions.
ㅡBlink.
The moment when the magician’s starting language was expressed inwardly. I was able to get out of the dormitory full of insignificant beings at once.
The field of view changes rapidly in an instant, and you reach the space you looked at as if passing by for a moment.
“Huh!”
“…!”
As soon as I landed on the ground, I burst into laughter as I watched the gasping cadet.
‘Something… .’
It seemed that this time would not be as bad as I thought.
*
good… .
As tea cups are placed on the table one by one, the subtle scent of tea leaves fills the interior.
As I feel that even the scent of the tea leaves is insignificant, I put my eyes on the beings inside one by one.
Esia, Han Chun-seong, and the two training mages who follow me.
“Well then, I hope the tea suits your taste.”
“yes.”
And after a trivial greeting, he gently crossed his legs, keeping his eyes on the retreating existence.
Seruk. Then, I saw the two people in front of me.
“… … .”
“… … .”
It was still an expression of embarrassment, but Essia and Han Chun-seong all had stupid expressions, so it was just funny.
And after briefly listening to Esia, I felt a sense of fulfillment in the eyes of Han Chun-seong, who looked at me with a different gaze.
It felt good to be interested in a human being who could be called a special gemstone.
From my point of view, that cadet is worth treating because he is closer to ‘original stone’.
“I’ll call it Agar Castle for convenience, so that’s how I know it.”
“…Yes. All right.”
Seeing that he nodded, I gently tapped the teacup.
I didn’t even want to put such vulgar tea in my mouth.
Chiing
At the end of the faint sound, he spoke calmly.
“There is really no reason why I want to talk like this. I just want to hear directly about the circumstances of the accident that happened last week, so it’s more meaningful to hear it directly than to hear the information.”
“Ariya, Master of the Magic Tower. It won’t be that different from what I explained to the people at the academy and what I’ll say again.”
After cautiously expressing my opinion, I raised the corner of my pick.
“It doesn’t matter.”
It’s the information I heard from Ryuell’s guild, so it’s probably literally what it says, but I wanted to grasp the fragments of ’emotion’ that would come out of Han Chun-seong’s mouth.
A piece of emotion that will inevitably be contained in the voice. With that, I can get more information about the time of the accident.
“…Then I understand. I will try to explain in detail.”
As I nodded my head at the continued voice, I glanced at Esia, who was right next to Hancheonseong.
“… … .”
I just listened to a series of conversations, but I seemed to be worried about my appearance, which had softened my tone.
Even as he clicked his tongue inside, emotions like love and hate boiled again inside him.
The insignificant figure of the disciple who betrayed his expectations and left for the academy certainly lacked the brilliance of the past.
I want to sell it colder if I have the same mind… but I try to suppress that heart and pretend to be calm.
swish
Then, I turned my sight again and put the agar in my eyes.
I wondered if there was another shiny gemstone in my sight.
You should be able to believe that a cadet in the academy is more talented than the apprentice mages residing in the mage tower.
And only when my eyes met, did Han Chun-sung begin to open his mouth.
“Then, on the day of the accident, I… … .”
*
The explanation of Han Chun-seong continued for quite a long time.
I could feel the sincerity in the way he explained the details of what had happened at the time of the accident, and as he continued speaking quite logically, it was worth paying attention to his voice naturally.
As more detailed explanations were added, including the presence and presence of the apostles, and even my own strength to withstand them, my complexion slowly began to harden.
“… … .”
As I narrowed my eyes, I put the agar in my eyes again.
“This is the end of what I am going to tell you. Anything more than that will be no different from what I have described to others.”
Seeing him announce the end with a calm voice, I couldn’t help but feel disbelief in my eyes.
“…yes. I heard you.”
The fragments of emotion in that voice spoke the absolute truth. It was a series of surprises because I knew there was no exaggeration in the explanation.
The information at the time of the accident I had heard about was… rather, it felt different to the point of wanting to be reduced.
Took.
As I tapped the rim of the teacup again, the feeling was profound.
“Hmm…”
Originally, I didn’t really have any expectations for the name Han Chun-seong.
Even with the information I received in advance, I had focused my attention on the Legendary trait, Cadet Leonhardt.
However, it was so different when I faced it in person and listened to the explanation at the time of the accident.
That was unbelievable to me.
together.
‘This level of existence… .’
The fact that it was not mentioned in the Tome of Prophecy. He was very curious to me.
With the Tome of Prophecy, he overcame the crisis that would come to the empire several times. After ascending to the Magic Tower, I was given the ‘responsibility’ to prevent crises by recognizing Aeon’s old books, so of course I did that.
And there was no mention of this academy accident in the book of prophecy, and there was only one cadet named ‘Leonhard Lorient’ to be careful about.
Still, I had to visit the academy.
It was a step to help Leonhardt lose his characteristic. In fact, the purpose of visiting the academy had no meaning other than that.
The name written in the old book of prophecy called Leonhardt was a ember that should not be extinguished here.
By the way… … .
Even though it is different now, it is very different. Clear doubts and doubts were now greatly disturbing my mind.
“I’m sure you said Agar Castle…”
“Yes. That’s right. Ariya, Master of the Tower.”
When he said the disparate name one more time, he saw the cadet carefully answering.
Even the feeling of a calm cadet was completely different. There is no trembling or embarrassment as if he has adapted a little to the mana expressed from me.
There is a strange expectation and aspiration in the dark eyes that stare straight at himself.
“Have you ever had a different name in the past?”
“There is not.”
I asked again in a calm voice.
“Then, was there someone like your teacher before the academy? Or maybe it’s your parent’s name. Anything is fine, so tell me everything.”
A clue to this existence whose name is not listed in the tome of prophecy. I had to find it.
I simply noticed the part called ‘common trait’ and then didn’t check the information properly… I didn’t even think that it would catch my ankle, but I needed to know it properly.
When I stared at Han Chunseong like that, unlike before, I hesitated to answer and my lips hesitated, but I didn’t like it.
“Why don’t you answer?”
He sighed in frustration and narrowed his eyes. Someone is asking a question right now, but hesitating like that and not answering?
“Master… ?”
“what. Esia?”
“May I answer on behalf of Cadet Han Chun-seong?”
“what?”
I laughed at the unexpected interference of Esia.
It is said that I remember loving and caring for her in the past, but it was not taught so rudely as to presumptuously interfere like now.
“Instructor Esia. I am okay.”
“But, Cadet Han Chun-seong… … .”
I was even more excited to see her turning her head away from me and exchanging words with the cadet.
“Ariya, Master of the Magic Tower. I will answer properly. I am sorry for the hesitation in answering.”
“…yes.”
I was able to soften my heart just by seeing him respectfully keeping his manners.
…And in the eyes of the cadet, who had sunk even more, a strange question arose.
‘Is my question that difficult to answer?’
I didn’t understand that… … .
“My parents and teachers do not exist.”
In the soft voice…
I paused for a moment.
***
“My parents and teachers do not exist.”
Esiya’s breath leaked out at the sight of the nature opening her mouth brilliantly.
“…uh.”
Then, when I saw Master blinking in surprise, I felt more sorry for nothing.
‘Really, what should I do?’
Before Carly left the academy, I had a request.
A request to pay more attention to the cadet Han Chun-seong while he is away from the academy. It was a rare request from Carly, so I remembered it clearly.
Originally, I was going to visit Cadet Han Chun-seong, who left the infirmary yesterday.
It can’t go wrong… .
Now, Cadet Han Chun-seong was forced to tell the truth that was difficult to say directly.
And the fact that Cadet Han Chun-seong lived a difficult life as an orphan… … .
