Chapter 154: Youngest Son of the Magic Family
Heira slowly opened her mouth.
“According to the oath, I will answer the last question. It is true that Keisa-sama’s arrangement lies dormant in the Lion’s Forest.”
“As expected. But why didn’t I find it?”
“Because the conditions under which it can be found are special.”
“You mean, I’m not special?”
“no. The head of the household is special.”
Heira looked at Decatra with emotionless eyes.
Heira had seen many family heads, but Decatra was definitely special. Magical power and determination that surpasses previous family heads. And he is a person with a unique coolness and even charisma. Something special was certain. However, it was a little far from the ‘special’ that Casey Mayton said.
“However, it is a little different from the specialness Keisa-sama wants.”
“What is the special thing the guest host wants?”
“It is a special eye.”
“Special eyes.”
Decatra huhu- and laughed. Larsen has special eyes.
“You mean you can only see with those eyes?”
“It will.”
“Larsen had special eyes.”
“I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to see it with those eyes.”
Descartes remained silent for a while. And he asked again.
“Is that really the arrangement of the Lord of invitations?”
I already answered yes. However, asking again meant that there was a different meaning behind it. Decatra continued.
“Did the first host make the arrangements by himself? I’m asking.”
Heira bowed her head.
“sorry. I cannot say more.”
We stayed silent for a while. Decatra raised another question.
“Hey. Let me ask you a personal question.”
“Please Xiamen.”
“Lassen. What do you think of him?”
“… … I don’t think my opinion matters.”
“okay. You are right. But I’m curious. You have watched numerous blood relatives of the Mayton family from the sidelines. I want to know how you evaluate Larsen.”
“I think he inherited the blood of the Mayton family.”
“Is that the end?”
“yes. That’s right.”
Decatra laughed. Heira expressed it as ‘truly inherited the blood of the Mayton family’.
Decatre knows. How noble Heira thinks of ‘Mayton’s blood’. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Heira gave the highest praise possible.
‘Heira’s standards are very high.’
But Larsen seems to have passed that threshold. Because Larsen’s skills are excellent? That’s not it. If you simply look at your skills, it’s the 1st Gongja guy or Evelia. Or Persia, the 3rd Princess, was better.
‘also… … There’s something about him.’
attraction that attracts people. It seemed to be there. I decided to watch more. And Heira said.
“My lord. Three questions are over. According to the oath, I am no longer the head of the household… … .”
“know. You do your job.”
“yes.”
“Larsen guy. You are blessed.”
Shadow Clan Heira. She chose Larsen to be her full master.
* * *
Lydia, who was training magic under Evelia, came to the Maple Annex. In one year, Lydia has grown quite a lot.
In terms of Korean age, it was a second year middle school, but it felt different from Korea. This is a fantasy world. In some regions, 15 years old is considered an adult.
‘He was very tall.’
Lydia’s height seemed to be in the middle of 160 cm. Burning red hair and white skin. And the black robe she was wearing made a great contrast.
Lydia stood next to Larsen. He lifted the tip.
“Did I grow up a lot?”
When I lifted my tiptoe and lifted my head a little, our eyes met.
“He has grown up a lot. in one year.”
“huh. She said that the devil’s grandmother was growing up after seeing me. She kept giving me tasteless candy.”
“Tasteless candy?”
“huh. Tastes like garbage broth.”
Larsen sighed and laughed. I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s likely to be a rare artifact belonging to the Spirituality class. How can you describe it as tasteless candy?
‘Because usually, spirit medicines don’t taste good.’
Spiritual medicine items don’t end just by eating them. All elixirs come with a certain amount of side effects, whether small or large. In order to control the side effect, a senior wizard should help.
‘Looking at Lydia’s attitude, she doesn’t seem to know that she helped her.’
It was as if Sister Evelia had secretly and quietly helped her. It seemed to her that perhaps she did not want to give Lydia a debt.
Lydia laughed heheh.
“Lydia has grown a lot more mature.”
“A grown-up person doesn’t call himself by that name.”
Lydia was a little taken aback.
“really?”
“uh.”
“Then what do you say?”

“Express me.”
Lydia’s expression showed bewilderment.
Larsen sighed and cleared his throat. This is a common side effect of those who have taken the elite wizard course.
Elite mages don’t socialize much. In the case of Lydia, she was in a slightly more closed space, almost blocking contact with the outside world. Evelia did it on purpose.
‘I didn’t want to reveal the power of Lydia to the world.’
Looking at the situation, it is unmistakable that Evelia cares for Lydia. However, it was difficult to see that she cherished her existence as Lydia.
‘Because Lydia is mine.’
So, there was a high probability that he was prettier. It was a bit cruel to Lydia, but that was the reality.
It’s not that Lydia is pretty, Lydia from Larsen is pretty. That’s why he didn’t care about Lydia’s social exchanges. It’s because you just need to grow well as a force.
‘what… … Many elite mages take this course.’
Many elite wizards cut themselves off from society. There are many sorcerers who are concentrating on practicing magic in the corner of their room. So, these side effects occur.
“Lydia will become dignified.”
“what. Do you really need to be brave?”
“Isn’t being dignified a mature thing?”
“well. I’m not sure. Live as you are, just.”
It reminded me of Carlton, Prince 6. Although his demeanor had grown up, it was difficult to see him as an adult. If he had grown up, he would have apologized first. Carlton didn’t apologize until the end. He must have been a kind of ego.
“As it is?”
Lydia seemed to have realized something.
“Isn’t there a need to be dignified?”
“huh.”
What’s the point of being brave? I don’t know if it’s about being dignified on its own, but I thought there was no need to force myself to be dignified.
Lydia seemed to have put down a heavy burden.
“Hehehe.”
My body has grown a lot, but my expression and atmosphere are the same as when I was young. I didn’t like that bright smile. Larsen thought for a moment.
‘Your father is alive.’
should i say that? My mind was complicated again. If she found out that her father was alive, Lydia would rejoice like a child and she might weep.
‘But the father… … . I don’t know if he’s as good a father as you think.’
There is no doubt that he loves Lydia. But I don’t know if she also loves Lydia for her very existence.
For the sake of the clan. Could it be that I love you as a tool? If so, wouldn’t it be rather sad for Lydia?
“Lassen. What do you think?”
“No, nothing.”
I decided to delay revealing the truth to Lydia. Seeing Lydia’s innocent smile made her heart ache for no reason.
‘I don’t think he’s a good enough father to make you happy.’
I talked a lot with Lydia, whom I hadn’t seen in a while. A large part of her stories was ‘I’m afraid of the devil’s grandmother’.
Thanks to Evelia’s special training, Lydia achieved the 4th circle and was on the verge of the 5th circle. Like Kashin Seid’s colleague in the original work, he was growing rapidly.
Larsen also brought up a story about the ‘Lion’s Forest’. Lydia did not think deeply.
“okay. I’ll go with you.”
“I need to get permission from sister Evelia.”
Even Ibelia agreed.
“A common mistake made by mages who take the elite course is that they do not experience actual combat. A mage who grew up only in theory without practical experience cannot fully use the power of the 7th Circle even after becoming the 7th Circle.”
With those words, he allowed Lydia to accompany him. Heira followed.
“I have packed all my luggage.”
“Heira is going with you. I am strong.”
“I am the shadow of Confucius. It is natural to be together.”
“Is there something different?”
“I am always the same.”
“okay?”
“yes. Same.”
Seeing Heira speak decisively, Larsen gulped down his saliva.
Heira didn’t do any harm, but I remembered Heira’s identity once again. If it’s Heira, then that’s it. He had no intention of provoking the strongest killer in the world.
okay. good is good
Meanwhile, Heira had to hide her surprise inside.
‘Did you notice a subtle difference in me?’
Nothing has changed outwardly. However, the ‘Three Oaths’ is over, and now Heira serves Larsen, not Decatra.
The number of people served by the Shadow Clan has been completely narrowed down to one person. but didn’t show it off.
‘Am I retarded or is Confucius sharp?’
I just asked myself a question. Larsen is Heira. I left the door of the Maple Annex with Lydia.
“Confucius!”
Carrying a backpack much larger than his body, Hampton came running in a hurry.
“Shadow Hampton! Everything is ready!”
“Why do you have so much luggage?”
“I did some research on the Lion Forest beforehand. We prepared medicinal herbs and poisonous herbs in advance. It’s not heavy, but it’s bulky, and it’s difficult to store it, so I inevitably have this much luggage, Confucius.”
“You suffered.”
“Oh no! It is the right thing to do!”
It’s been hard.
At that one word, Hampton almost cried. Confucius, who returned after a year, has become more dignified and cooler than before. Although he is a bean pod, he seemed more like an heir than before.
Evelia came to the front of the Maple Annex. Next to her stood a girl with her yellow hair and amber eyes. It was Shinnyong.
Shinnyon was holding Evelia’s hand tightly with one hand, and holding a lollipop with the other.
Lydia found it.
“uh? That garbage soup-flavored candy!”
Lydia described it as the taste of trash broth, but Shinryong seemed to like it quite a bit. It seemed that it was because he had a taste that was different from that of humans.
“Lassen. Am I a babysitter?”
“sorry. And thank you.”
After taking care of Lydia, she decided to take care of Shinnyon this time.
“what. are you okay. Because I am also interested in dragons. It is also interesting to deal with brain power.”
“i look forward to.”
“okay. I will not kill you.”
Larsen laughed inwardly. sister. Please don’t say such things with an angelic face. It’s scary. He held the words to himself.
‘The destination is the lion’s forest.’
* * *
The Lion’s Forest is a huge forest located in the middle of the ‘Sea Desert’. It was not difficult to reach Seah Desert because the movement gateway was well activated.
Passing through the movement gateway, we arrived at ‘Seah Desert’.
I saw an endless expanse of desert. The sun was blazing. There were no monsters to speak of in the desert. It was a place inhabited by a monster called ‘Sand Worm’, but it was also one that did not move in the middle of the day.
Larsen looked at the map and said.
“I think it can arrive in three days.”
It moved by relying on a map and a compass. It took longer than expected. Around noon, the sun was too hot to rest, and at dawn it was too cold to move. It took 5 days instead of 3.
I saw the ‘Forest of Lions’ located in the middle of the desert. came closer
“It’s strange that there is such a dense forest in the middle of the desert.”
approached the desert. But something appeared. It was a wooden sign.
“uh?”
I went closer and looked. I saw an old wooden sign. Lydia tilted her head.
“what’s the matter?”
“Lydia. Can’t you see this?”
“what?”
Lydia waved her hand in the air. Lydia’s hand touched the wooden sign.
‘It just passes by.’
Apparently, my hand touched the wooden sign. But I couldn’t get my hands on it. What Larsen could see was invisible to Lydia.
“Hampton. Can’t you see it with your own eyes?”
“I’m sorry, Gongja. I can’t see anything.”
I cried out with sincerity and passion.
“I will try hard to see!”
Larsen looked at Heira. Heira’s expression was expressionless as always.
“Hey. you?”
Heira’s expression looked subtly different from usual.
