Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 56

Chapter 16 Imperial University Magic Tower (4)

A heavy silence fills the living room.

How long did that silence last?

Zion’s mouth slowly opens as he looks into Ahmad’s wise eyes with languid yet serene eyes.

“That’s not important.”

At the same time, Zion’s eyes curved like a crescent moon.

“The important thing is that the person in front of you is called Sion Agnes, and I have survived in the imperial castle until now.”

Ahmad felt an endless ominousness in Zion’s eyes.

The pressure was so terrifying that even he, who had reached the end of level 9 and was far from human limits, would momentarily flinch.

It made Ahamad think of Emperor Urdios in his prime, which he had seen decades ago.

‘no way… … Has only the essence really changed?’

And that made this thought pop into Ahamad’s head.

He also knew.

How has Prince Sion been treated in the imperial castle so far and how has he been treated?

When he was not even ten years old, he was abandoned by the royal family and almost imprisoned in Chimseong Palace. After that, he brought shame to the imperial family and suffered countless assassination attempts and contempt.

Even the assassination attempts he only heard of were so numerous that he couldn’t even count them on his fingers.

‘To survive in the imperial castle?’

Although it was a very rare case, there were cases where the essence of existence changed.

When life is at stake or fate is twisted.

Perhaps Prince Zion’s case could fall under the first reason.

In fact, Prince Shion’s words gave me the feeling that he wouldn’t have been alive until now if his essence hadn’t changed.

‘Has Agnes’s blood been awakened belatedly?’

There was a good chance that would happen.

A bitter light appeared deep in Ahmad’s eyes for a moment and then disappeared as he put the pieces together and came to his senses.

If they even had to change their essence in order to survive, how hellish were the events that took place in the Imperial Palace?

“… … I was careless in asking His Majesty who he was. I apologize. “Then, can you tell me the reason you came to see me?”

After bowing his head and apologizing to Zion, Ahmad asks again.

“There are three in total.”

At that, Shion opened his mouth and held up three fingers.

“I need you to tell me the whereabouts of the mysterious monster, how to contact him, improve a magic circle, and help me once.”

Strange medicine.

He was a doctor with one of the top three skills in the Plosimar Chronicles, but his behavior was so eccentric and free-spirited that he was nicknamed eccentric.

A person who can easily be called the best in the empire simply in the field of improving the human body.

The location of the mysterious person was hidden and constantly changing, so there was no way to meet him except through an acquaintance.

And Ahmad, who was in front of me, was one of the few close friends of this strange man.

Shion planned to improve his weak body through strange magic.

“Hmm, I could consider the monster side and the magic circle if you tell me the reason… … “It is impossible for me to help you directly.”

Ahmad shook his head slightly and responded to Zion’s words.

“I am a person who has already decided to retire and dedicate everything to this university’s Mt. Tower. Therefore, I no longer receive calls from the family or the imperial castle. “If I were to help His Highness Zion, I would be breaking the oath I made.”

It was a statement that could only be made by someone who has reached ‘heaven’.

The power to choose everything according to one’s own opinion without worrying about the imperial castle and family.

Only those who have reached the pinnacle of power in the world can have this authority.

However, despite Ahmad’s words, Zion’s eyes remained unwavering and calm.

Because I knew you would answer like this from the beginning.

And Zion had already prepared an answer.

“What if what I’m asking for help with is not the Imperial Castle, but the University’s Magic Tower?”

“… … “What does that mean?”

Ahmad’s eyes sank at Zion’s words.

“Here, it also has to do with the magic you need to improve.”

Shion hands the archmage a magic circle that he had previously drawn on paper.

It was the red-jeokjin used to weed out the monsters in Chimseong Palace in the past.

“… … .”

Ahmad looks at the magic circle in front of him in silence.

Is it because it was the first time I’ve ever seen magic?

Ahmad’s eyes began to shake.

How long was the silence?

“this is… … “What on earth is this magic meant to find?”

A question flows from the archmage’s mouth.

“enemy.”

Shion responded with a grin.

* * *

“Damn, damn!!!”

The hallway of the university’s magic tower where all classes are over and no one is around.

It was already night, and Essien was walking down the hallway, where only the soft magic lamp provided light, swearing.

His eyes filled with shame and anger.

In Essien’s mind, the image of himself collapsing ugly under the pressure of Prince Sion’s gaze in the lecture a little while ago was endlessly replayed.

“I gave up on that guy!”

To be honest, the look in Prince Shion’s eyes at that time was so scary that my body naturally trembles even when I think about it, but the shame of showing an unsightly appearance in front of Priscilla was even greater than that.

“Sion Agnes… … “I won’t forget.”

Essien muttered like that and started walking down the hallway and looking around the classrooms as if he was looking for something.

‘Anyway, what’s happening all of a sudden?’

The reason Essien was inside the magic tower at this time was because he received a call from someone.

As the eldest son of a large family, he doesn’t go just because someone calls, but this was a special occasion.

Because it was directly related to his grades.

Unlike other students, there was another reason why Essien maintained top grades at the Imperial University’s Magic Tower.

s*xual dealings with some professors.

Even at Agnes University Magic Tower, the best magic education institution in the empire, not all professors could be clean.

There were bound to be professors who wanted to move up or take advantage of something even if it meant doing something somewhat dishonest, and Essien was one of the students who traded grades with them.

‘Don’t you know that having contact at school like this in itself carries the risk of being caught?’

The person who called this time was one of the professors with whom he had a s*xual deal, and he had returned to the Magic Tower because he had urgent business to do.

Of course, I didn’t tell anyone because it wouldn’t be good for other people to find out.

Shake!

Finally, Essien arrived in front of the classroom where he had decided to meet, roughly opened the door and entered.

What he sees in his eyes is,

“Essien? Why are you here… … .”

“What, Essien, you too… … ?”

There were five or six students who came first to the dark classroom without even the lights on.

All of the children of great families are at a similar or slightly lower level than him.

The moment Essien saw them, he knew that they were people who had engaged in s*xual transactions just like him.

“What kind of dog… … .”

It wasn’t a good place to meet each other and get to know each other, so when swear words came out of Essien’s mouth,

“Are they all here?”

A human figure appeared in a corner of a dark classroom where there was not even moonlight.

A middle-aged man with a fairly gentle appearance for someone who teaches cold skills.

It was Professor Proud Lindell.

“Let’s get straight to the point. How important is it that you have called us all here? “You know very well that gathering together in the magic tower itself is dangerous.”

Essien frowned at Proud and spoke nervously.

A very arrogant attitude for a student to have towards a professor.

However, Professor Proud did not frown even at Essien’s attitude and continued speaking with a smile on his face.

“It’s not a s*xual story, but I called you for something more important than that.”

Jerk, jerk.

With those words, Professor Proud slowly began to approach the students.

“much?”

Is it because the atmosphere I felt from that professor was different from usual?

Students take a step back without realizing it.

“Today, the time has finally come for you to fulfill your usefulness.”

Professor Proud quickly approached the students, and a soft voice came from his mouth.

“What is that… … !”

The moment questions and confusion appeared in the students’ eyes,

Kwasik!

Something that looked like a black thorn protruded through the chest of Essien, who was in front.

“Knock, gag! Such beauty… … !”

Essien, unable to even complete the correct words, screams desperately and dies.

There was a glimmer in his eyes that indicated he could not understand this situation until the moment he died.

And before Essien’s body even falls to the floor, he quacks!

Dozens of black thorns began to burst out from the bodies of other students who were watching the scene from the side with shocked eyes.

“Save me… … Argh!”

“Aaaah!”

Students screamed and lost their breath in an instant.

A soft smile appeared on the lips of Professor Proud, or rather, Hiduk, a high-ranking demon, as he looked at the father figure he had created.

* * *

“… … “Should I just go back?”

The hallway of the Magic Tower where Essien was just a moment ago.

There, Tyran Friharden was walking slowly with an expression of annoyance about everything.

Now that the lecture was over, Tyran, who didn’t even bother to lift a finger, was here for one reason.

A call from Professor Proud.

It was a bit strange that he had called Tyran himself because he had never had any contact with him before, but he couldn’t help but move when he heard that there was something important to discuss regarding his studies at the University’s Magic Tower.

“I also need to restore the spell that Prince Shion wrote down earlier… … .”

As Tyrian mumbled, the image of Prince Sion that he had seen a moment ago came to mind.

Contrary to the rumors that he was a disgrace to the royal family, seeing Prince Sion in person made me think of him as a true ruler.

But what Tyran remembered more than that was the sight of Prince Sion writing down the spell on the blackboard without a single hesitation and in one breath.

‘That was clearly impossible without a complete understanding of the technique.’

How on earth did Prince Shion know the answer to that problem?

It was a problem that even he, who had intact memories of his previous life as a great mage, could not fully understand.

‘He didn’t seem particularly skilled in magic.’

Is it natural for Agnes’ immediate blood relatives to be like that?

No, that couldn’t have been possible.

‘Thanks to you, I was able to see the way forward… … .’

How long did I walk thinking about him?

Tyran arrived in front of the classroom where we were supposed to meet and slowly pushed the door open.

Grumble-

The classroom door opens easily as if it was not closed properly.

Soon after entering the classroom, Tyran’s eyes began to sink.

“This… … .”

A thick bloody smell fills the tip of my nose.

And along with that, the scenery inside the classroom, with only the soft moonlight shining through, begins to enter his eyes.

Five or six corpses scattered haphazardly between the podium and chairs.

“He died not long ago.”

Tyran, who immediately recognized the corpses as students of the University Magic Tower through the traces of magic remaining on them, approached the corpses with cold eyes.

The corpses had holes in their bodies, as if they had been stabbed by dozens of spears, and their proper shapes were not even recognizable.

That cruel appearance was a sight, but what bothered Tyran was something else.

Demonic energy flowing from the open wounds of corpses.

As if there was no intention to hide it from the beginning, the concentration of the demonic energy was so thick that even ordinary people could see it.

‘Black magic? or not… … .’

Tyran’s eyes glow blue as he picks up a handful of demon energy with his fingertips and begins to follow the traces left in the demon energy.

A unique tracking magic that only he can use.

Tyran knew how serious this situation was.

Because the murder by demonic energy took place inside the Imperial University’s Magic Tower in the center of the capital.

Therefore, no matter how lazy he was by nature, he could not ignore this.

His head begins to spin rapidly with him.

‘Clearly, it was Professor Proud who called me into this classroom. But the professor is not actually here. Then this… … !’

It was the moment when Tyran, who had come to a conclusion in an instant, hardened his expression and was about to leave the classroom.

“T-Tiran, you! What on earth are you doing now… … !”

A loud shout came from the classroom door, as if waiting for it.

Professor Proud was there, looking at us with astonished eyes.

Before Tyran could react,

“What’s going on!”

Five or six professors who heard Professor Proud’s shout, perhaps coming together, approached the classroom.

“What is this!”

Soon, their eyes also begin to be colored with astonishment after seeing the horrors in the classroom.

And at that moment,

Fuhuahahaha!

The magical energy flowing from the corpses suddenly gathered towards Tyran, wrapped around his right hand, and burned fiercely.

“that… … Magi!! “No way, it’s you Tyran!!”

One of the professors, who immediately recognized it as Magi, looked at the corpses and Tyrann’s right hand in turn and exclaimed in disbelief.

There are corpses scattered around, and Tyran is spewing out demonic energy in the middle of them.

It was a sight that made anyone who saw it have no choice but to assume that Tyran was the culprit.

In particular, just handling Magi is a serious crime punishable by death.

‘You got it right.’

Tyran thought as he looked at the demon that was stuck to his right hand and would not fall off.

This was a trap.

A trap set for you from the beginning.

In this life, he was just a student at the university’s magic tower and had no power or authority.

Of course, there is also a financial relationship.

That’s why I was complacent.

I never thought that they would set a trap for me, so I got caught in it.

‘It became a nuisance.’

With that in mind, Tyran slowly turns his eyes to look at Professor Proud.

Traces of magic visible only to his eyes.

The traces led exactly to Professor Proud.

‘If I’m dragged away like this, I will definitely be accused of being a criminal.’

It was clear that Professor Proud was the culprit who had caused all of this, but there was no way to prove it right now.

However, if he was caught like this, it was clear that he would be sentenced to death without even having a chance to clear his name.

If he was willing to kill even the children of a great family just to set a trap, it would be easier than flipping the palm of his hand to frame himself with fabricated evidence.

‘In that case, I have no choice but to leave the place.’

Although my qualifications as a student at the University’s Magic Tower would be revoked and I would become a fugitive chased by the empire for a while, it was better than being captured.

“Tir’an, if you follow me obediently, I promise not to use force.”

Contrary to what they said, the professors slowly increased their magic power and approached Tyrian.

Their eyes had already decided that Tyran was the culprit.

Meanwhile, Tyran was also chanting magic in his mind while trying to move towards the window.

“Something interesting happened.”

A voice rings in the ears of Tyrian and the professors.

The voice was low, but very vivid, as if it were being spoken right next to you.

Was it because of the unidentifiable ominousness in his voice?

People’s heads simultaneously turn towards the direction from which the voice was heard, as if they were possessed by something.

Soon, in the eyes of those people,

Jerk, jerk.

The image of Zion, wearing a black robe like darkness and walking towards us with lazy eyes, began to appear.
