102
More than twenty assassins came out and started rushing towards Leonhardt. In their hands were dark weapons soaked in blue poison.
wow.?
How many of those are there?
The mana in my body was moving diligently.
From the flying assassins to the assassins who immediately start running after them.
There was a magic that was just right for repelling all this crap.
Air wave
It was a magic that created waves of air around it.
Immediately afterwards, a tremendous wind began to gather in both my hands.
Phew!
Perhaps because of the sound that was obviously ominous, tension rose in the assassins’ eyes.
“Throw it!”
With the words of the guy who seemed to be the leader, hundreds of dark machines flew towards me.
Look at these guys, they’re showing favoritism.
I don’t think a secret spell will work on a knight wearing sturdy armor, so I think he was just targeting me.
I’m sorry, but I can’t listen to your heart.
The moment I stretched out both hands toward the flying demons.
Boohoo!
A gust of wind burst out of my hands.
The magic, which mixed the real driving method and the original mystery, was surging like waves.
Waves of wind surrounded me and Leonhard on all sides.
Hundreds of flying insects begin to fly.
After that, assassins were seen running towards them.
If it were a normal wizard, that sight would have sent shivers down his spine.
But I was different.
I had a magic that was so efficient that no one could keep up.
There’s no need to be afraid of those kinds of guys.
Starting with the iron needles, the dark weapons that looked similar to shurikens began to lose their power as they collided with the wind. The wind that was shooting out from my hands was very strong.
I don’t know if they’d be able to put some energy into the dark weapons they throw, but how many of those guys, who usually just do vulgar backstabbing, would have such great strength? Only someone who looks like the leader over there would be able to do that, right?
Naturally, most of the secrets were being blown away in all directions as if they were being swept away by waves.
Although a few dark dragons managed to get through the wind barrier and approach.
Ting!
Leonhardt’s lightly swung his sword and they were all shattered.
He was truly a sturdy escort knight.
My magic barely lost its power to block the dark magic.
Following the assassination, the approaching assassins were swept away by the wind.
“Huh?”
“Eww!”
Typically, the wider the range of a magic, the less powerful it is.
Just 2 circle magic.
It’s something you can get through with just your strength.
That’s what I thought.
However, the power of magic easily exceeded their expectations.
The low-level assassins were flying towards the sky without even being able to put up a proper resistance.
Out of twenty people, only five could barely withstand the wind, and only three managed to push through it.
The emotion that settled in their eyes was despair.
Is this some kind of power?
All of their comrades who had been following them had already disappeared.
Three people rushed in with their teeth clenched.
‘There are only three.’
It was a truly wonderful thing for Leonhard and me.
It’s tricky to rush in all at once, but if you rush in separately like now.
Crunch!
“Ugh… … Ugh.”
Because it was likely that his throat would be cut off in an instant.
A high-ranking knight.
Wasn’t he an opponent that the assassins could take down by going head-on?
It was even more impossible for the remnants who barely survived after the main camp was destroyed.
The two had their throats cut as soon as they arrived.
The leader who had been talking about revenge earlier, what should I do?
Kaang!
After blocking the attack about three times, his neck was also cut off.
“… … .”
In an instant, those who could be called skilled began to die, and despair began to appear in their eyes.
‘There are only about seventeen left now.’
But one thing that was commendable was that he didn’t run away.
Of course, the price for such absurdity is death.

He raised his staff and activated the memorized magic.
Hurrruk!
Fire Arrow.
The giant fire arrow momentarily confused the men.
bang!
The magic that rushed in in an instant caused a huge explosion. Even after I finished roasting the three of them, my magic wasn’t over.
“Ugh… … Euaaaah!”
“For the shadows!”
“Kill him!”
Because I cast some magic towards those who rushed at me without giving up until the very end.
Ice fog.
A fog, triggered by a hybrid drive, surrounded me.
With this, the defense was somewhat complete.
I could see the assassins approaching me, shivering from the cold chill.
I snickered and used Magic Missile.
The heads of the men who approached, slowed by the cold air, exploded one by one.
Of course, some of them managed to get through the ice fog and even dodge magic missiles to get to me.
Leonhard’s sword was already waiting there.
Anyone who came closer than a certain distance had their head cut off without fail.
slaughter.
No words could fit it better.
Even as red blood was spraying everywhere, Leonhard’s and my eyes were filled with peace.
The act of fighting.
He and I were already worn-out humans from that act.
* ? ?* ? ?*
“Phew.”
It’s been a while since I’ve cast a spell.
Around Leonhard and me, there were about twenty assassins lying dead.
“They are such a nuisance.”
He nodded quietly to my words.
“It looks like they’re the remnants of the guys who came before.”
“I guess so. Fortunately, the level wasn’t that high.”
Assassins also had ranks.
There were five levels: lowest, lower, middle, upper, and highest.
As the rank goes up, they get stronger, but the main topic of what they learn is how to kill secretly.
Even for top-tier assassins, it was common for them to get into a fight with an expert mid-level knight.
In that situation, the result was obvious, as only about twenty idiots appeared, without even a single top-tier assassin.
Leonhard smiled bitterly at my words.
“If it had been a normal wizard and not a young master, it might have been dangerous.”
That would have been it.
If those guys had rushed in with the determination to do battle, it would have been difficult for even the highest-ranking knights to stop them all.
“… … It’s truly amazing.”
“what?”
“It’s as if you… … have no fear of seeing blood. Are you already a skilled battle mage?”
“Isn’t that much better than shivering?”
He nodded at my words.
“If it’s your nature, then it’s truly a blessing. Fear is an element that suppresses potential. By the way, is the reason you came over there today to look for Erciel’s family?”
Since you were standing behind me and listening to my story, you probably figured out why I was visiting the intelligence community.
“that’s right.”
“Then why don’t you just ask him directly?”
“I already asked her, but she was reluctant to answer.”
“If you don’t want it, there’s no need to dig it up… … .”
“I thought about that too, but something felt fishy.”
“… … What is that?”
“I feel like he wants to find out, but he’s got something tangled up and he doesn’t want to talk about it. Do you know how Baron Helaim fell?”
“I don’t know.”
As I explained to him what I had seen in the documents, his expression gradually began to harden.
“… … There is definitely something strange. A noble who was praised by the people of the territory is suddenly going crazy and running wild.”
“There, the Viscount Amnus or something like that took over the territory. All the members of the family, including her, are either dead or sold to slave traders. I think they’re the ones who did it.”
“Don’t you know why?”
“Uh. Not yet.”
Is it really necessary to go through such a complicated process just to take over a territory buried in the mountains?
Baron Helaim.
From what I had seen on paper, it was a territory with no particular peculiarities. It was said that there was no element that would make the author’s mouth water.
Even land must be delicious to be taken away.
The farmland isn’t very fertile, and half of the territory we have is mountainous, so what’s the point of taking it away?
‘If only the Viscount Amnus had done all this.’
There must have been a reason why he had to swallow that place up, even if it meant destroying the Baron.
“Something will come of it sooner or later. Anyway, if the writer was involved, I can understand why he didn’t bring it up. It must have been burdensome.”
“If it’s at the level of a jaeger, it’s definitely not an easy opponent.”
“I’m telling you, the problem is that the kid is too kind. It’s okay to talk about things like that.”
“… … If the author is really involved, what are you going to do?”
“What should I do? I have to get revenge.”
These are the guys who ruined a healthy family, so why would we just leave them alone?
I was planning on really destroying it.
“Aren’t you thinking of building a magic tower in the future?”
“that’s right.”
“… … The Viscount Amnus is not a family with great power… … but they are still viscounts in name. They will be different from the Viscount Remington.”
I guess so.
There was no particular problem with Viscount Remington, as I intended to destroy him with the power of the Marquis, but if I wanted to touch Viscount Amnus, I had to resolve it with my own power at all costs.
Because it was difficult to borrow the power of the main family.
There has to be some kind of plausible advantage to getting my family involved.
How could you ask someone to destroy the writer in order to avenge his subordinates?
The distance was extremely long, as it was at the southernmost point, and there was no justification for starting a war.
Perhaps I will have to take matters into my own hands.
‘No.’
Is this guy next to me with me too?
I smiled brightly when I saw Leonhard.
“Don’t worry too much, you won’t be able to move even if you know right away. Revenge is something that can only be achieved if you build up strength. I know that much.”
“… …So you’re thinking of moving someday?”
“Erciel is one of the few spirit masters on this vast continent. He is certainly valuable. Well… … He doesn’t move for such calculated reasons, though.”
“… … .”
There were both mathematical and human reasons.
Anyway, one thing was certain: the moment the mastermind behind the destruction of her family was revealed, she intended to act without hesitation.
No matter who the target is.
After finishing our conversation, Leonhard and I started moving towards the inner castle.
One night passed like that.
‘June is almost over.’
June.
A lot has happened.
From the rebellion to restoring the power of the family.
The results were all good.
It seemed that he had received a sufficient reward for his busy movements. The number of knights and soldiers of the family was increasing rapidly.
To this extent, I felt quite reassured.
Even if I leave for Prinus, my family will not decline.
A writer who has been actively working since he opened his eyes here.
The days I stayed here were not long anymore.
‘That’s when it really starts.’
The lord and the horse-riding lord.
And even the territory that I can rule directly.
It was from that time that I started flapping my wings in earnest.
Looking in the direction where the prinus is located.
A piece of news arrived from the knight of the family.
The story was that Iris had visited.
Does this guy know that I bought wheat?
I had strongly requested that the Count keep it a secret, and I had even written a magic contract.
You probably don’t know that much.
I know my family bought a lot of wheat, though.
‘You’ve learned all the 1st circle magic books, right?’
Given the kid’s talent, he would have mastered magic in no time.
Now it was time to teach the boy his next spell.
