Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent chapter 124

124 – One of the girls seems to have a particular liking for flan.

I’ve returned to the dormitory of the Faculty of Magic.

“What?”

As if I was waiting for my arrival, Becky found me at the end of the hallway and ran right in front of her.

Where did she go, is she feeling well, what did she spend her time on…. I ignored most of the endless questions.

“Keep your attention.”

“How can I get your attention?”

Becky replied in a huff.

Our eyes met in the air for a while.

After a while, her face turns red like her hair, and she turns her head to one side.

“… I was just curious and asked. Curious.”

Said Becky, tapping her floor with the tip of her toe.

“Looks like you haven’t had a lot of assignments lately.”

“Why is the story like that?”

Around that time, Louis and Trixie also joined us. After confirming that the three wizards were fine, I went over to the main topic before saying hello.

“Group coverage is supervised by the Imperial Family.”

All sounds are gone.

Becky kicking the floor with his toe, Trixie watching us alone with her arms crossed, and Louis smiling as usual. They all stand tall and stare at me.

“Since there is a lot of interest, the scale of coverage naturally grew. First of all, to understand only that much.”

Becky pursed her lips like a goldfish.

“Now, now, wait a minute. Then what will happen Do we go all over the place?”

“Yes.”

“… !”

Then Becky opened his mouth with her hands on her cheeks. Her expression clearly reflected her thoughts.

Not much time has passed since the victory in the subjugation system, but even within that time, changes have certainly taken place.

Now when you open the trivia, you can find our names so easily. No, it’s strange that there isn’t.

It’s a natural procedure. Because he won the subjugation.

Considering that the most talked about topic in the Faculty of Magic before was only a few papers, it was not at all an exaggeration to say that the modifier ‘the best of all time’ has been attached to us often these days.

“There is no need to be nervous. Because it is not difficult.”

Currently, the only thing needed to build a mage tower is money.

Magic has nothing to do with public opinion. If you prove it with your skills, it will be just that, but in order to get financial benefits, you need some support.

‘Group coverage will be the stepping stone.’

Students, nobles, and even the imperial family. When you open your eyes, you are looking for a place to invest all day long.

With various interests intertwined, group coverage is an opportunity and a stepping stone to the construction of the Magic Tower.

It has been 48 hours since I faithfully prepared for the group coverage. The day of group coverage finally dawned.

◈

The interview waiting room inside the Imperial Palace.

Dozens of bureaucrats were busy walking around with three hours before the interview.

Currently, the world’s attention is high, and even the second princess is expecting this, so even the smallest mistake is not allowed today.

“No matter how much I think about it, I think it would be better to change the reporting location. I think doing it in the garden would capture the beauty of the imperial palace well.”

“Then we shouldn’t be checking right away to see if we can use the garden. And didn’t the wizards arrive?”

“Not yet. But it will arrive soon!”

“It’s a big accident if you’re even 1 second late. How many people are interested right now and how many gold coins are rolling around. Never be late!”

“I’ll check it one more time now!”

While the bureaucrats inspecting the venue and schedule were moving in a hurry, the officials in charge of the other places were looking at the hundreds of pages of coverage plans.

“Progress, progress…. Did Irene decide to take over?”

“Yes.”

At the words of a bureaucrat, Irene replied by running her light green hair through her hair. She was looking at dozens of coverage plans at the same time.

“It’s the first time I’ve taken magic faculty students to the imperial palace again. Still, if you’re a freshman, you’re young, so Irene won’t be difficult for you to deal with.”

“It doesn’t really matter if it’s easy to handle or difficult. It’s important that people can get what they want.”

“Well, in order to recover the principal, you have to have fun first….”

The official clicked her tongue.

It was a normal concern. This is because the crystal ball required to export the situation in real time costs an enormous amount of money to manufacture, maintain, and activate.

“I think recovering the principal will be so easy?”

At Irene’s words, the bureaucrat tilted her head.

“Irene, do you say the same thing as the treasurer?”

“After all, it was Plan who made all these plates.”

“What is it? Because he is the starting point.”

“In the interviews that took place inside the academy, we always talked about magic. But, I won’t talk about magic at all today.”

After Irene flipped through her coverage plan aloud, she continued.

“It is right to talk about personal life. Because people want it.”

“Are you having fun? Is it confirmed?”

“Sure. Originally, everyday stories are more fun.”

Irene smiled with her satisfied face.

“One of the girls in the group seems to have a particular liking for flan.”

◈

The Imperial Palace.

Called the ‘place of observation’, it is a place created in the air solely to overlook the Imperial Palace. Currently, her second princess, Aurora, was there.

The crescent-shaped pupils buried between the pitch-black hair were directed towards the busy bureaucrats.

The eunuch next to him bowed his head.

“The Princess. Preparations are going well.”

It was none other than Aurora who said that she was looking forward to the group coverage, so the eunuch had to quickly report her, keeping an eye on her from time to time.

“The imperial palace has been noisy for the first time in a while.”

But fortunately, Aurora muttered in her rather agreeable tone.

After looking down like that for a long time.

The second princess removed her lips as if remembering something about her.

“Come to think of it…. Yes, the third one is also attending the Faculty of Magic, so how is she doing these days?”

The eunuch involuntarily swallowed her dry saliva at Aurora’s careless words. It was because nothing good had ever happened between Aurora and Yusia.

“Yu, are you talking about Princess Yusia?”

“Don’t make me say it twice. If she is enrolled in the Faculty of Magic, she must have had quite a bit of contact with the Plan Gnome.”

“Yes. I’m sure there won’t be any….”

The princess continued her words, blinking her eyes slowly.

“The future of Plan Gnome is unreadable. Everything related to him. What a strange thing.”

“Yes. I remember what you said.”

“Recently, there are quite a few parts that cannot be read in Yoo Shia’s future. What does this really mean?”

“It is….”

The eunuch tried to find something suitable to say, but Aurora spoke faster.

“It shouldn’t be a very difficult question. It means that the plan gnome is increasingly intertwined with Yushia’s future.”

“That is, so…. Wouldn’t that be temporary? It seems that the third princess is just concentrating on her studies, and since the academy moves around while taking classes, she may have come into contact with her….”

“All right. It’s okay. It’s just something I’ve heard.”

She clicked her tongue and Aurora lifted the tip of her mouth and laughed.

Even though the conversation ended like that, the eunuch looked sideways at Aurora with her anxious eyes.

Fortunately, there was nothing odd about it. Her expression seemed a little brighter than before.

The moment the eunuch felt relieved.

“… !”

At some point, right beside the eunuch, Aurora was staring at him with her hardened face.

“Heh, whoa!”

Turning to the eunuch who had knocked her ass off, she ordered.

“I have to take that flan. To find a way.”

The second princess, Aurora’s competitive spirit and possessiveness.

There were no exceptions even if the subject was a ‘person’.

◈

As the sun went down, the woman opened her eyes and quietly recalled her memories. The duel was fair. There is one victor and one loser left.

“….”

Scarlett, the Knight of Remnants.

She was a loser.

I stared blankly out of her window.

The fragments of the sunset were gathered, and darkness began to slowly spread in the world. Even after the duel was over, quite a bit of time had passed.

She did not suffer any harm from the other person. Even if she was just defeated, it was a complete defeat.

I couldn’t believe it, but it was true. She couldn’t admit it, but had to admit it. It just felt so unrealistic that this situation felt like a dream.

Scarlett staggered toward the mirror.

Her body still hasn’t fully recovered, and she hasn’t even eaten recently.

Her legs didn’t move according to her will, so she almost fell several times, but she managed to stand facing the mirror.

There was a harsh reality there.

Her disheveled hair that covered her face, her body of a loser, her failure to become a burning knight lay proudly in front of herself.

She stared blankly at the devastation, then sat down.

She had no idea. She didn’t even know what to think.

She just staggered.

Then, by chance, the key she had received from her family head caught her attention.

“Ah….”

She picked it up quietly.

Scarlett trembled in her pain, but she thought at the same time.

… Now, she said it was time to visit the annex.
