For Freedom
“Give me just one day.”
The queen hesitated.
But asking for her time was a sign that she was starting to change her mind.
It meant that she was considering change, who had only resolutely rejected all changes until now.
Leon’s words were so sweet.
Because Leon was like Reeves.
There was a lot of talk about this and that, but in fact, Leon did not have any major complaints even when he was living in an attic with his mother.
I didn’t know much about the outside world in the first place, and they provided me with food, clothes, and a place to live for free, so there was no problem in my eating and living.
And Leon thought as he saw the Reeves boy blocking his way.
This forest is an attic.
A place where people are allowed to live without strength, where there is no obstacle to eating and living.
However, it simply turns into hell with just a small change in daily life.
It’s because you don’t have the power to achieve freedom, what you’re after.
Even though he looked at his dying mother and begged for the family, Leon, who lacked the strength and freedom, could not achieve what he wanted on his own.
The same goes for Reeves.
Without freedom, there is no freedom for Reeves who live hiding in the woods only as it flows.Read at noblemtl.com
Just as Leon eventually proved his ability and achieved freedom by leaving the attic, Reeves too, otherwise, they will never be able to pursue what they want for themselves.
That’s why Leon whispered a very small whisper to his childhood self.
The world outside the attic, the feeling of helplessness in being unable to achieve what you want.
Of course, as a child, Leon didn’t have a teacher to teach him magic, but Reeves were different.
They saw the power of Leon’s magic, and they heard Leon’s promise to teach him magic for free.
If it were not for Reeves who were satisfied with life in the attic, it would have been an attractive proposal without even hesitation.
However, it was not easy for Reeves, who had been refusing to change for thousands of years, to accept the change, and asking for just one day to make that decision was an understandable level of hesitation.
However, the queen of the forest, Finas Evergreen, was not given time to hesitate.
The demonic raids had begun again.
But this time it’s different.
Because Reeves had 50,000 magicians from the Tower of Truth.
However, the demons did not come to the Forest of Peace without thinking.
[We are destruction!]
aa
Obviously, even though they were weak demons that could not even be counted, perhaps even at the level of their own, they expressed the power of a marquise.
However, the power overflowing with fury was uncontrollable, and the power of destruction, or antimatter, engulfed everything around him.
As the demon that expressed that power, they destroyed everything in the forest.
Of course, Leon had the ability to stop it, but the problem was that it was happening all over the forest at the same time.
The solar sword that Leon taught the Reeves wizards is basically a magic that traps and controls ionized deuterium and tritium with a strong magnetic field.
In other words, it meant that if you learned a little trick, you could apply a strong magnetic field to antimatter to prevent runaway, but there were only 10 Reeves wizards who could spread the sword of the sun and achieved the level of 3rd circle of quantum magic.
Tribes in the forests nearby, including the Queen’s Tribe, Evergreen, could be protected by Leon and Reeves wizards, but beyond that, explosions exceeding the power of nuclear bombs formed a huge mushroom cloud and were gradually destroyed. .
And there were no more forests left at the site of the destruction.
At least, the land of rest that Reeves remembered no longer existed.
The queen had no choice.
“Leon. Teach us magic and freedom.”
In the end, from beginning to end, Reeves was not given the right to freely choose for himself.
“But it will be different in the future.”
Reeves refugees, who barely managed to survive in the power of destruction, flocked to the Evergreen tribe, the forest capital.
Leon distributed pure potions to them.
The medicine I had in my pocket in advance was not enough, so I had to go back to Veritas a couple of times to get potions, and now the land of the Evergreen tribe was crowded with many Reeves.
The number of people to protect has increased, but if it is the abilities of Leon and the magicians of the Tower of Truth, they demonstrate their absolute power in a limited space.
Within the boundaries of the realm of magic resonance, they are absolutes that even demons cannot do anything about.
Of course, it would have been better if they could use the portal Leon made to go to a safe area and learn magic there, but Reeves was still in the process of adapting to the rapidly changing reality.
Even the queen who controls the tribe’s will cannot command her people to abandon the country and homeland where they have lived for hundreds of years, so Finas Evergreen pleaded with Leon.
“Please protect us.”
And Leon succeeded in protecting Reeves with the least sacrifice for half a year.
If the tens of thousands of Reeves who had gathered in the land of Evergreen were not Reeves but humans, Leon would have gone crazy and could not handle them all.
No matter how large the subspace pocket was, to supply food for tens of thousands of people would have had to go back and forth several times a day using the portal.
However, the Reeves consume less energy as their metabolism is low, and it was possible to supply energy to move throughout the day by drinking a few sips of morning dew and basking in the sun.
And during that half year, all Reeves living in the Forest of Peace became wizards.
All the Reeves living and breathing with the power of the queen were assigned the titles of wizards and forced them to learn magic.
Reeves, who could sacrifice even their own lives for the queen, desperately tried to live up to the queen’s expectations. it was successful
As a result, at least 50,000 Reeves wizards were born.
Among them, the number of elite wizards capable of deploying the Sword of the Sun and Atomic Burst Blade alone exceeded 1500.
And now, Reeves have the ability to protect themselves from demons who continue to invade the forest on their own without the cooperation of the Truth Mato.
The queen mumbled with a new expression of emotion.
“Leon, you are changing day by day.”
“Well? Does it matter now?”
Leon is now 16 years old.
In the past half year, Leon’s height has grown to over 180 centimeters, and his mature skeleton and muscular muscles have turned a youth into a man.
And Finas, who watched the process from the side, said with a slight smile on her face.
“It doesn’t matter. Up until now, I have thought of change as a kind of earthquake that shakes up a painstakingly built tower. But I was able to realize with my body and soul that such good changes also exist.”
Leon said, avoiding her gaze slightly.
“Whoever hears it will be misunderstood.”
You can feel Leon’s growth in body and soul.
It was probably Reeves’ unique expression used in a similar sense to the eye candy, but it was equally burdensome.
That means that Queen Finas was always watching Leon and glaring at her.
“But seriously, I am positively accepting this change that came to Reeves and that you are the one who brought it about. To you, who raised our heads and let us know that the reason the ground shakes is because the ship we are riding on is moving forward and gave us the directional keys so that we can choose the direction that the ship will go in. I am truly grateful to all the gods who have sent me to earth.”
“Why are you telling me this all over again?”
“Now we are ready to embrace change.”
Leon was silent for a moment as he saw both of Finas Evergreen’s cheeks, which had been pale and not white, flashed red.
For the first time in her life, she felt excitement.
“We are now ready to leave the old forest where we were born and raised on our own and become self-reliant. Therefore, we hope to seek asylum in the country you rule, the Veritas Magic Kingdom.”
“Is that the first change you choose with the freedom you get?”
“Yes. With Leon, I am not afraid of any change.”
Leon grinned at Finas’ words like that.
“great. Then let’s go together. to our country. To a land of change where neither race nor class distinction exists. But before that, there must be some work to be done.”
“Anything to deal with?”
“I heard someone say that beautiful people have a beautiful place to stay.”
It is a forest where beautiful races like Reeves have stayed for a long time, but the place they left must not be dirty.
* * *
In the past half a year, Leon has not spent time teaching Reeves only magic.
He pinpointed the path of the demons’ penetration and the location of their outposts, and was looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
As a result, what I found out was that there were three outposts they built to invade the Peace Forest.
Troops commanded by different peasant-level demons were attacking the Forest of Peace while taking ties with each other.
By any chance, if Leon found one outpost and attacked it, the other two would attack the Forest of Peace, killing the Queen and dismantling the Reeves.
The demon’s horn acts as a kind of antenna that strengthens the wavelength of magic, so if you apply it, long-distance communication is possible.
It was an operation like Melite Flare Farostel, the Demon King of Destruction who knew Leon’s abilities better than anyone else.
So Leon led all his troops to their outpost.
He led all the young Reeves who had not yet learned magic to the battlefield.
Even after visiting the Peace Forest from the other two outposts that they had been attacked by enemies, there were no more Reeves left there.
Leon, who succeeded in conquering the first outpost by giving up his main base called the Peace Forest, headed to the second outpost at once.
Of the 1500 Reeves elite wizards, 500 are mobilized for the power of destruction and antimatter control, and the remaining 1000 Reeves deploy the sun sword to destroy the battlefield.
The place where 1000 suns rose was like a scene that had been handed down as a myth on this earth.
However, the protagonists wielding destruction in their hands are no longer demons, but only Reeves.
Destroying the third outpost in an instant, losing their base and dealing with the remnants of the demons wandering through the forest was simpler than picking up trash on the street.
In the process, Leon discovered a new side of Reeves.
“Aren’t Reeves reluctant to fight?”
But is revenge different?
They were slaughtering demons with full smiles and very happy faces.
They had no power to survive, but had to kill their own emotions, and now that they have gained the ability to obtain what they want, the Reeves have become the embodiment of revenge.
“For freedom!”
The sight of Reeves, who were covered in demon blood all over their body and went crazy with their eyes turned upside down, was a scary sight for Leon to see.
