Grand Duke of the Heibern House

＜Episode 100＞

At first, Hedeian was just angry.

It was because there were too many holes in the ignorant theory Ruin was talking about casually.

“… … .”

That was an impossible area.

A wizard’s mental image is always accompanied by assumptions, that is, imagination.

In order to realize such imperfect inspiration into reality, it was necessary to prove it through empirical results through persistent research and experiments.

However, ignoring all the process and immediately implementing it into reality.

Judging from the limitations of human thinking, it was never possible.

If humans had such a transcendent ability, all wizards would have broken through the 9th hierarchy and become superhuman.

“… … .”

However, such an impossible realm was now unfolding in front of his eyes.

The magic line that filled the inside of the cave.

Looking at the thousands of lines pulsating in different shapes and glowing softly, Hedeian was at a loss for words.

ssssss-

When Ruin gathered the fusion magic, all the magic lines disappeared as if they had been washed.

Hedayian stared at Ruin’s face, which had returned to a senseless emotion.

“This… … Impossible.”

Hedayan was biting his teeth.

Ruin asked with a strange look at his antinomic reaction, which he denied even after seeing it with his own eyes.

“It’s embarrassing for me to say it’s impossible even after seeing the magic implemented.”

“Breaking down the boundary between the cognitive world and the mental world means that the magician’s mind has finally reached the realm of omnipotence. It means that all cognitive abilities, including sensations, concepts, judgments, awareness, reasoning, and memory, must completely transcend human limitations.”

sigh-

Hedeian, who summoned the fire of the trough again by using a spell, glared at the blue flame as if to kill him.

The limit of the image, the sage’s super-high telekinesis immediately burst into the blue flame.

Even after being driven to the brink of mental collapse, he completed only 4 copies of his psychokinesis.

Thus, the eruption of the spell ended in just four rounds.

Hedeian lowered his head for a moment in dizziness, and then opened his mouth in desperation after a long time.

“Look. With this sage’s imagery and telekinesis, only four are the limit. But the more serious problem is not the number of divisions.”

Hedeian’s blurry eyes, which had exposed the whites, turned to Ruin.

“With only one spell, my telekinesis was exhausted. I mean, it’s a blow to the mind. Can this really be called magic?”

A terrifying spell that causes mental collapse just by maintaining mental movement and mana for a few seconds.

If this was the magic that Heirodes left behind, it meant that it was a magic that he couldn’t learn in the first place.

“… … .”

Ruin had a high regard for the magic of Hedeian, who persistently longed for wisdom even with a burnt-out spirit.

However, in the first place, this magic of Heirodes was the magic that started from the will of absolute existence.

It was magic of a new level created by the absolute ruler of the demon realm, the great demon, Mudra.

Of course, from the beginning to the end of the ceremony, all of those reference points were the standards of the Great Demon God, who had spent an infinite amount of time.

The Great Demon God’s mental power, the Great Devil God’s telekinesis, the Great Demon God’s arithmetic power, the Great Devil God’s magical power… … .

He, trained in the image of more than 10,000 years, was able to approach it, but it was not a magic that was possible for a human wizard who lived only 100 years. even if he is a sage

at that time.

“ah… … .”

Daphne was staring at the liquid meter, stiff as a stone statue.

The cadets urgently tried to check the gauge of the liquid meter, but it had already returned to zero.

“What’s wrong? Daphne?”

“Have you measured your mana?”

Daphne muttered as if possessed.

“I heard from Ruin-sama that magical powers are added every time a spell is differentiated, so I got curious and measured it… … .”

“so?”

Daphne’s gaze was pointing at the blacked-out limit of the gauge, the unmeasurable area.

“When Ruin-sama’s spell split ends… … The gauge of the liquid meter was touching the end.”

“what? So it can’t be measured… … ?”

“That, does that mean it exceeded 100,000 liqueurs?”

An added silence raged in the already quiet ruins cave.

100,000 liqueurs.

It was an amount of magical energy that would be impossible even if a wizard had overcome the limits of the ninth rank and reached the level of a superhuman.

How can human magical power match the magic weapon of absolute power, the magic weapon?

“… … Cadet Ruin. Please show me.”

Louin was well aware of what the dean was looking for.

However, showing Ode is ultimately revealing one’s greatest weakness.

While Ruin was immersed in agony, the voice of the head of Hedeian trembled again.

“I swear I will never reveal your secrets. As a sage’s magic… … .”

Wizard’s Oath, Sorcerer’s Seal.

Hedeian’s graceful hand movements roamed the air.

“Please believe in this Hedeian magic.”

Ruin, who had been staring blankly at the faculty president’s magic oath, looked at the students.

Small but strong eyes of longing.

Eventually, a faint smile bloomed on Ruin’s nonchalant face.

Tsutsutsutsutsutsu-

Ruin should slowly dissipate the spell that was overlaid on his mana circle and ether.

Illusion-type magic that disturbs one’s eyesight.

Phase shift magic that moves to a random spatial coordinate system when another person’s physical force or magical power is invaded.

and the final barrier.

Silence magic that neutralizes all nearby spirits and telekinesis, even Silent.

Tsutsutsutsutsutsu-

The power that was shining brightly and spinning proudly was finally revealed.

The wisdom of white magic obtained through the library of wisdom.

A clue to the fusion found in Heirodosugi – General Theory of White Magic.

And the fear of darkness, the mana circle created by the great mage’s sorcery… … .

It was absolute.

Just looking at it makes me feel like my soul is shaken by its greatness.

It was magical power, but at the same time it was not magical power.

Even with all the wisdom of magic, it was a truly inexplicable and distant feeling.

I could feel the traces of a person’s magic, such infinite pottery.

The complete ego of a wizard, already fully formed.

Having read the facet of a wizard’s will, its infinity, Hedeian murmured as if possessed.

“Spirituality… … .”

This is the realm of seekers.

The great seeker’s magic that can never be challenged even in the name of a sage.

“4th tier… … .”

Four rings that are proudly rotating.

However, in the realm of ‘mage’, the circle was meaningless.

Because it is impossible to measure the realm of the already completed mind with ordinary magic.

Head of Hedeian’s department was trembling with such a feeling that he was about to explode.

“… … Have you reached the realm of a mage?”

Hedayan’s tone changed.

It’s ridiculous to claim that he’s a wise man and a dean after witnessing such a great state.

Superhumans were beings that could not be explained by any common sense in the world.

“I couldn’t finish it. We are still far away.”

“What is that… … ?”

Luin said calmly.

“A system that can be used with real power is now unstable. I’m thinking of a few options, but I’m not sure yet.”

“Does this mean that you cannot yet realize all of your spiritual perfection?”

“That’s right.”

“her… … .”

You have already completed the mage’s spirit, but the means and system to fully demonstrate it are not ready?

Is that really possible with common sense?

Above all, how can a wizard who is only a 4th tier possess the spirit of a wizard?

This has changed in history.

Even if you look at the history of the Royal Academy, no, you will not find such an absurd example in all the history of mankind.

The feeling that all the common sense and notions that I believed in until now are collapsing.

“If so, does that mean that the reason you summon the mana circle outside is related to the state of a mage? Then, where can I get a medium that makes mana circles possible instead of a human heart? Even if you find a beating that surpasses your heart—”

Ruin shook his head.

“I cannot comment on that.”

Unless you wanted to meet the Magical Inquisitor right away, you couldn’t tell the white mage about the source of Aether.

Ruin retrieved Aud back to the spirit world and gave off a nonchalant look.

Now it was his turn to tell why he had shaken the dean of the department even by forcibly showing his ether.

“As you may have guessed, this is my magic, my biggest secret.”

“hmm… … .”

Hedayian nodded heavily.

The reason why Ruin built a triple trap even at the cost of constant magic power consumption.

It was because the mana circle was everything to a wizard.

“If my secret leaks outside, I will kill the dean without the slightest hesitation.”

Hedeian couldn’t say anything at the harsh voice that tightened his heart.

Hedayan came to his senses.

But that’s right, threatening to kill the head of the Faculty of Magic with the status of a cadet?

The most unfortunate thing was that he was the only one in this ruins cave, wasn’t he?

“No, look… … .”

“They are not suspicious to me.”

Hedeian, who had been silent with his tightly closed mouth, asked quietly.

“What can I do?”

Only then did a faint smile form on Ruin’s lips.

He was also a seasoned old man.

A price comparable to revealing a secret.

He knew right away that he wanted an equivalent exchange.

“Please open me a way to contact the retirees of Sword Hill, or Omniscience Sage. Regular or irregular, it doesn’t matter.”

“What, what… … ?”

If it was a group of retirees who were defending the kingdom, there was a high probability that they were in contact with the royal family in some way.

A situation where they are already tracking abnormalities that occur continentally.

If left as it is, they will disappear without a trace by the demon’s demonic hand.

I don’t know if I didn’t know in the first place, but since I knew the direction of their activities, I couldn’t stand by such a meaningless sacrifice.

Of course, there was still resentment towards the old man of Sword Hill whom he had met in his family, but now was the time to let go of the great mage’s self-esteem.

Hirencia needed their cooperation to look into the early days of Akje’s corps commanders.

‘What is this guy… … .’

That he was so clearly aware of the kingdom’s secret group.

That meant that he already knew that retirees in the realm existed, not just legends.

Hedayan’s neck gulped.

“That, they are not beings that you can meet just because you want to meet them.”

“If I tell you exactly what I am saying, you will probably drop everything and run.”

“what are you saying?”

“Summons.”

“Summons… … ?”

Louin laughed bitterly.

“Please tell me that you are very bored and want to summon me again. You will understand well enough.”

Hedeian’s pupils shook violently.

“You mean you’ve already met them?”

Hedeian shook his head as he looked at Ruin, who was silently smiling.

Hedeian, who was struggling, opened his mouth again.

“Unlike Egios, I am a body marked by the royal family.”

The reason why the Hedeian dean didn’t become a sage even though he had magical abilities that surpassed Egios was because of his affinity.

He didn’t have much talent for getting along with people.

The royals didn’t like Hedeian’s eccentric personality very much.

“I can’t guarantee that I will be able to meet them. However, if I come across a kite and meet you, I will definitely convey your words.”

The young smile on his lips faded.

“Please treat me as usual.”

Hedayan laughed hard.

“That’s right, Cadet Louin Ryan.”

The head of the Hedeian department got up from his seat and went out of the ruins cave.

Just when he was no longer visible, Daphne’s voice, filled with disappointment, was heard.

“… … Were you human?”
