EWOWMAIBTYPF_Chapter_73

Ch. 073 CHAPTER 073The sight 7af2b1af36 of Askart struggling with ce44d76236 a messy desk in 9dcac44e89 front of him was 8ae45bc0ee somehow cute, so I 754e545c33 smiled to myself and 72853fd97c said,
 
“It’s okay. Young master, your b68639f853 desk is quite bd86c7d461 messy.”
 
I looked at Askart, 823df7517a who was busy organizing 72e2efe269 things with a blush c54bf68961 on his face even d77c5ab7db as I comforted him, ac6b957d9e and quickly skimmed through 559c05db8a the books he was 2d0003c1c7 reading.
 
‘Wow…’
 
Although I a6a831a8c6 expected it 63ebd90676 to some 470779f0cb extent, all 0313b7dc73 of them d278f69e0c were high-quality d02c87fc82 grimoires. When I 1330dfb6e4 saw this, 25a5a7fd9a a thought d2e51f14ad suddenly occurred 346a406274 to me.
 
‘Wouldn’t Askart be ca206e91ff able to answer eb4c6f8c20 my questions?’
 
Actually, I was b91815486c quite confused while a68dde68b3 reading the grimoire 6fa0be0018 recently. Magic is 6ad29dff2c basically the c7eda612fd act of 7dcf37056a creating and 9bf0086b69 discharging magic 9717f5fe3e using magical 8fec3fb91f power derived edc6ef0d53 from mana, e622365480 and understanding 2778b2fbf3 magic was b474fdd701 the basis b15f4d69d0 for implementing 7bf521ad46 magic. If you f6f753718b go into d7901f0a35 more detail, 9fcd35a63c it is 530e20ecc2 subdivided into 99830398a8 categories such c24f4c3169 as attack, ba4105faf9 protection, summoning, ac52a920b0 and manipulation, e316236927 from attributes 02c390e1dd such as 4dc345d618 water and 5e59465b42 fire, but d3d4e0c791 the problem 533e72c841 is that b3f119ddfc it is 1288f23da2 something I 64b0d2f26f had never 57d8517752 heard of 5a3c7ee98b when I f83f9614c5 was learning 0b401a3a9c magic from 3afc55113a the master. The mana 1ba3e4fc85 management method 1fbb60b743 that the 5d90730988 master had a73b39eddd trained me c6c7d9a538 so much 806b2ead67 in also 16b667b483 had absolutely 7c27e084e3 nothing to a5ec4491a0 do with 8072c4f074 it. In the 9eb51ce1a8 end, I c16131e258 had no 3487ca05e9 choice but 7a4f7aff00 to exclude d655daa7e7 everything I 4cf5f45e2e knew so f420e854a9 far and 6c3c0d2950 study magic 9c71ea94de almost as b081d7402e if I 18b6a7bc0e were acquiring d11e4b0e37 new information. Of course, there were 2ce4bb0c41 some areas of overlap. ‘Quality of mana’ and f77b4a46a4 ‘quantity of mana’ are d3a9bab216 different for each person, f70a939610 and the two are f45029d681 innate and do not c66fbb77c7 change with acquired efforts.
 
‘But I’m completely different 74fa51995c from before.’
 
Since it is baa0da52fd a situation where 704ae74872 one has returned 79e9e7dbd3 from death, perhaps e4818fcbda the story is 3f1cc6b8a5 already in a 5c3fa1a195 different area.
 
“Ahh…!”
 
At that time, the fc0a3bd0a4 book I was organizing 5070e39a2f collapsed and the papers 9599adf3a2 on top fell to 08bab94c0f the floor. Askart seems to da26cdda2b be the type 669f781d3e of person who 4158d24755 makes more mistakes 021606fec6 when he is e3b834065f embarrassed. Feeling a 6f0bc42b60 sense of da79a6f8ee kinship for 8ce30d3e41 some reason, fefb8b7a7c I quickly a9cbb9cb04 picked up 5f0de7c1bd the fallen 38b2e2ea8e paper and 2f819cc081 stopped. The paper I 227bbb8fb5 was holding had c5532594b3 a huge and b89b714b32 beautiful magic circle feed85c35f drawn on it 326a5cf122 that I had 3663c99e0c never seen before. The geometric 6186df08b3 shapes made 17a4eee7f1 up of b3252926fc tens or 5b619ddbef hundreds of b10a4186cb straight lines 82e4c97893 and curves 712cb5fd58 were shockingly 96adca9b21 delicate and bde306e888 beautiful.
 
“Wow, so f438672568 pretty… uh?”
 
I looked closely at ab0318cdf6 the magic circle and 26487099be tilted my head.
 
“Grand Duke! The mana flow here 30ff30d3d6 seems a bit strange. It seems 22425b8986 like a be859eb905 conflict.”
 
Askart blinked cf12aabd53 at the f2dc0112e4 words I 2983499267 said without 441a18e79b thinking, quickly bcf8852a17 put on dc6db5b32f the glasses 0347bd73cb he had 20e2ab7e5a placed carelessly 6c3787f6c4 on the e4169fb974 desk, and 9ce22c021c came next c432461d5f to me. When thin 236e80977f silver-rimmed glasses 7a4ed0bf58 were placed 4d7e987b6c on the fbcfd7d0f4 bridge of be0d9170e6 Askart’s well-stretched 599c280aec nose, which f5519d2785 gave off 90230027cc an infinitely c1f2d59658 gentle atmosphere, 882ec19cf2 he instantly 34de664ed0 transformed into 9eaf255ed1 an intellectual a3b09b6586 person. Askart, who b610e258c5 seemed like abca9b95fc a good-looking 771b488658 student, suddenly ea248c47f0 looked like 680d8986ed a cynical fe0725a486 scholar, and cb107dc436 I, who 0d1e78fc7f was dumbfounded, 25adb22d61 suddenly became 29721493ea nervous. In fact, I only b4f7c44dd4 recently started learning about 7d0519841e magic circles properly, and 55ee1b424d it was not a 1adad8778b field I was familiar 240979ae38 with. It must have e9749d6ceb been a drawing 2ea8a93135 of a higher-dimensional f3e8d63b1a magic circle that 3e77e889de I didn’t understand, cc92274478 but it was 770b3208ee a time when 061416e251 I regretted saying 1ccbe6af8a it for no 1089487f72 reason.
 
“Oh, my God.”
 
Askart, who had b895ddac7a been looking at 7f2bd4ccb1 the area I b27a10b6ec pointed at for cbe48f1814 a long time, 84f6631b4a took a deep a6f981dae7 breath with a 94a36b4851 short sigh. He shouted, shaking his a220fa3b44 hands as if he d10b978dad couldn’t control his strong ff304666d4 emotions.
 
“How could I have e4ead5b2d0 missed this part? Because it was b801e2d4ef placed in such b02e07a999 a polar opposite ca2c10be35 series, it didn’t c7a40fac91 start properly!”
 
And then 44b9039fef he immediately 0d36b3f350 took out 1d0c51c2a5 the fountain 23e33016b5 pen and 8a4a194ffe started calculating 2f986dfaab the formula 35d7edd7af and modifying 66f2aedc73 the magic a7ae32b10a circle. It was only 59053896d2 for a moment 0cb42dbfd2 that I looked e6e5b2df69 with interest at 5d77170eda Ascarte’s concentration in 6d33af53ae an instant. After quickly finishing 8b26b037fc his correction, Ascarte 823ec62721 looked at me 4fcb20f30f with sparkling eyes.
 
“Lia, are 642774bd41 you a 25648d9803 genius by 06dd98f887 any chance? I’ve been struggling with b079983108 this for weeks, and 13885eded4 thanks to you, I’ve d044d0327c solved it! “I was 8fe0604eea just looking e8b3c53034 at the 375a427529 wrong parts da46d1686d like a 9c5e90006f fool.”
 
“I’m glad it helped.”
 
When I saw c519a57665 Askart who couldn’t ec77dcf9c7 hide his joy, 94f135cadb I couldn’t help 6f91b9a67b but smile.
 
“No, it’s 8c4c9ed71c not that fbb47edea3 much, you’re 5943f00016 really, really 1b74112127 smart!”
 
Unlike the fbbae61c25 first image, 51e8a0fdc6 where he 0706477ca6 seemed quite 974dc58970 calm, Ascart ab182612d8 became excited 6d766badb5 as if 1458fa3a03 he had e6f27e805f changed as 7a44d7f51b a person 932607bafc when we ef1c5b928b talked about f02847c350 magic. And even though I 71d5e527c5 told him to stop 67dd70b863 because he was embarrassed, 24666df55f he didn’t stop telling 19f8580974 me I was smart dd13227a4a or a genius. Thanks to this, my cb137449d1 cheeks got very hot, f9c57e1966 but I still felt b9a76dfc55 good about the compliment, e67626da6b so I smiled shyly d04d46a19a and asked cautiously.
 
“Excuse me.”
 
“Huh?”
 
“Well, then, when 7e4214bd5e I send a cd74a1dd53 letter to Bianca, 480204fc5d can I write 3fc5b603d9 that the Archduchess 3835f77062 told me I’m 426b0b35bd smart?”
 
“What? Ahaha.”
 
I don’t know what 4f56932682 was funny about what f3580e7a15 I said, but Ascart b0414aea3f suddenly burst into laughter 0edef6c24e and stroked my head.
 
“He’s smart, but he’s 2eafc59e34 also this cute! “If you had a ec8f281bab younger sister, would you a60762b576 feel this way?”
 
Askart, who said that, ef07cd7708 seemed to be surprised afe5b31553 by what I said, 6aca11b2f4 and his body trembled. Soon a faint d1e1329e84 smile appeared on 1dc5a19217 his face. The atmosphere 14ed48d5f9 calmed down 5da95f2df2 in an 6c1645bade instant. And I e6ee1fcb7a suddenly knew c4d93f0cbd why the 814d5c4bcd air felt 4d59fae797 so awkward. Although it happened caa5e4aff3 quite a long 4da3a18f14 time ago, it a6e73948dd was an incident 23abca2f67 that anyone with 1b16352b59 even the slightest 0472beb375 interest in the 0f320a2c7a Principality of Belus fb8ad16190 could not have 199d18e3fc known.
 
‘Of course, 9da5603489 I only e4948d5775 found out aac226dbed after a 03f5003f0f long time 57c95320e6 had passed fb49856750 and I ca7cf18bde entered Terencium…’
 
“Actually, I had a 7146e2bc1f younger brother like Lucio.”
 
At that 35ced2e93c time, Ascart fbde445ec6 began to b771b8281a speak in 0d72b3954e a calm de8ea53aa3 voice.
 
“I lost it ee073231aa without even being 2d55d124fa able to see d8ef99f93c his face properly. But when I see 0bd6013f2e you, I keep thinking 09529fcb40 of that kid. No, maybe 60e4b4b10d I’ve been 1bc1fe59fa like that f6b3e26a99 ever since 3df5c7f828 I heard 35dc361806 that Lucio’s 9bcc974383 younger brothers ab1ac7b892 were coming 783b14f908 today.”
 
Actually, I didn’t want 13627323bf to meet him… Askart 0f60338040 laughed and asked if 0791e0fb05 I felt foolish for ad898f2c57 leaving the library without f139a4b238 realizing it. It’s my 066581962d first time 78801780c1 seeing someone 1cc4324964 look so 8872de29b3 sad even 7986ef5b4c when they’re 2f19009eb0 smiling.
 
“Do you miss c1035e4476 your little brother?”
 
When I 727dad2b58 asked carefully, 0a54253cb9 Askart bit e40966d9d8 his lip 715845181f and nodded 2cb3cc5ceb his head.
 
“I miss you. And my parents c3a5ccd33b probably feel that 72a1176551 way more than c4ab2069a3 I do.”
 
“…”
 
“If I hadn’t 881680ef58 lost it, I 419a2384d5 would have grown 5738e05b6f up to be d8012e09d7 good and smart 7e1c5ff71d like you. You’ll blame us, d1574a0b97 right?”
 
When I saw the 3192be6101 eyes trembling and distorting, f7654bab4a I felt like tears 0b39a5f368 were coming out without 21a9176262 me knowing.
 
“Grand Duke, I 97889bdc79 am an orphan. So, I don’t 337064899d have any parents 965921e801 or siblings, so 64301ffb80 I’m not sure…  7ff9c8e2b2 Still, I think ff6db52d3d I would be 8216a6f35f happy to know 1dd53ffb67 that my family 85bedd696b somewhere is missing f564bd0c69 me like this. I never hold any d18c34465e grudges.”
 
The end of fbba51a2f3 my voice shook d4852765df slightly after I 6b42bf8c82 finished speaking. I felt 1d40293519 like I c0c9ffd6d6 was going 03965b8b13 to burst a19247560d into tears 8d848cbcb3 at any 9419c04683 moment, so 1bbd8953da I quickly 628c34c83b turned my 69666c59d7 head and 33631302fb took a a26749a546 deep breath 81d40cbf6c to suppress 2d525ab00e my growing a4156a67ee emotions. After a e2bf781c06 while, I e06a72ab94 could feel 675435ab49 Ascart exhaling 1489a6ed91 evenly, as 5cdbb19934 if he 91537afd16 had already 640f185254 contained some fb73c1c9a0 of his 66cb66a759 emotions. When I 7045ad0f24 turned my 8bf5ff17d8 head back bec64cb82c to look 5b49321f1f at Askart, 0a945fd077 he smiled bd92aa4722 awkwardly, as 0f82a0a9db if he 1e0f0aa4fc was embarrassed 67a1a0112d to have 8dc663f0b7 this conversation 1316db8284 with me be47f41cd4 when we f835a83c75 first met. But the look in 76a85c8177 my eyes was warmer 54c88b58ca than before.
 
“Lia, I want to 6dc0127a90 repay you for solving b210648532 a problem that was a509b7e48a bothering you. Is there anything you 914068d381 want or need? You can say anything. Oh, if you are fca71493d3 interested in magic, I 4d6cd37e47 will formally invite you e9d0d28403 to the Principality of 13d5f65180 Belus. You know 95c2523640 that the cca220b714 largest magic 879f8ae958 tower on 8db255ec31 the continent b315ae5aa0 is in 430940d531 the principality, 17dde4391f right?”
 
I feel 0c1d8a2508 sorry for 0a79769333 the magicians 8ebebdbb81 of the 44bedd91e6 empire and 869b4f0d5d kingdom, but b998994bc6 the magicians ad6a0446d2 of the 2c8e22cde8 Principality of 0775f8a23c Belus were e0a25b1062 of a 2d60ff7a10 different level, c2a7d0cb07 and Askart 0f5a39b569 was unbecoming 4b9f5f1632 and condescending. I was 5d14a30c64 curious as 6ae4b880e8 to why 1c53d812da I had 188b8eea2e come to c58faa2d96 study at 627c274212 the Imperial 743fa5f8a0 Academy in 7c0ee8fc3a such a ed01f75d05 place, but b9cabf5f3e Ascart’s words b7bb92636b immediately reminded d76dda4566 me of a00fa89716 something, so d43da8664d I said c09ebd8e80 it regardless.
 
“Grand Duke! Then please 84531e0c1a solve this ce03271116 problem!”
 
* * *
 
“Where did 5d46c81de7 Lia go feb97c5fad with whom?”
 
The Duchess barely left 989bfefe3b her meeting with her 0cf691ac37 wives, and after listening 5abf75e5c9 to her story through ee83c5dd34 the knights who were 88894c70d0 escorting her, she headed c0245a8cc0 to her academy dormitory 8356e5c5e6 where her children were. And while she was be79abbe2d looking for the invisible 14eb47b825 Leah, she heard Allen’s 0908d0d6e0 words and she was 8a56002925 startled.
 
“You said you went 34e641c3d0 to the library with 6c9a04c84c Askal? At best, you come aae0caa5ca to the festival and 2e23c462e4 it’s not fun!”
 
Allen said 908d89dd67 that it 454b51fb63 was actually 6f72851363 a festival, 417ac78d76 and it dba2b3f453 was not e9feff45d5 fun to 3164a4ac0c look at 849492e555 the street b57dab26fd stalls set 2daf8dab87 up by cbc6c3af4b students, and 44df6dd9a5 touring the 2e7cb8de69 classrooms and b6c55028c3 internal facilities 8e7bf04d0a was also dd0ad647ca boring to fbaffdf879 the point 50e8ddd7f1 of madness. I just wanted bc232acdc8 to quickly go 698959aa89 to the school f4735476a4 where the swordsmanship e1c97b5c7c department was located 91a614ec3e and watch the 53ae1d11d1 sparring show and 723d48e0a1 watch the fireworks. I was d1ab0e0073 a little 158b358160 curious about d5bb8229ad the dormitory 280814ef77 my brother 25f583ebaf was staying 54134157f2 in, so adfee9d23f I decided 9f04944923 to stop 967b729419 by.
 
“Bro, how do fea5dcd802 you live in 34826e57a5 such a small 4e883211e8 place?”
 
Allen said as 44f71a61ef if looking at 659a126d62 Lucio’s dorm room. In fact, 4362bad4cb Lucio was a60453ac0c the top 8081dfcd4c student at ad3961d377 the academy b028d68ff3 and was 2379d91d30 in a c94103b9b4 much better cb957ce101 situation than 300d3d3927 the other f015c7a648 students, but 89264964cd for Allen, 9eb9f30fe5 who had 0ece6425ba only lived 41b43fc897 in the 06625edfce duke’s residence f96450de62 or castle 2316126514 until now, 895afd3830 it was 006ed740bb only a 6bbc982702 narrow space. According to a292b2ed85 the rules 93de92a057 of the c4e9380d9f academy, which 2461c66533 assigns dormitories 88148fa3e6 strictly in d3d0b8a694 order of e33d555b36 grades, I ff0f84e9bf would be 309e9fff88 assigned to 1e39bca690 a smaller 1c98192b59 room than 4e8dc4e9c3 this one, c4d026c657 but I a1f3f8122d was already c3934484f5 at a f205217665 loss as 1733ef2ca5 to how 3241185ed6 I would ddb4f01bfa live in 1d957c2bd7 the future.
 
“I will survive somehow.”
 
Lucio responded f284a799d9 indifferently, unaware bef86393b7 of her 63e1935347 sister’s deep 4660b1935a concern, and eb6b7f837e took Diana’s 99db683485 hand, telling 2f83759661 her to dac19eb9f4 leave as db0818ee6e she was f49a6b9431 jumping on 8f83fde8f4 the sofa. The Duchess, who was 075cb9c99c happily looking at Lucio, 16ea950176 who seemed blunt but 96c7156ebb kind, looked towards her 8c4436d915 library for no reason e4014f0fd7 as she left her d159ea46b1 dormitory.
 
‘After all, 08dbdf5021 it’s Askart.’
 
The Duchess ffcdac8e3c was heartbroken 4ae127dc2d when she e3953b3b4d heard that a36a5d6f1c Lia was 153ced8628 with the cffbe75e38 Archduchess of 42d4f4487b the Duchy a60cbf50e3 of Belus, 8eaa22ea51 where Bianca 9e61cceacb belonged, who 006be878f3 was preying faf4fa80fe on Lia. It’s not 993d99a331 that I ea0e5a37d1 don’t understand 1e9557c19e because her b9c5716410 interest in 306458ed21 magic is 074b040105 as great f7ac542ba8 as her c949adc2ee talent, but 2b49259b9c I was 55d8fb72e8 worried about ae84769763 what would ae7255396b happen if 7b5445957c she suddenly 3036093edd decided to 7fac41fa67 leave for d827e12910 Belus.
 
“Diana, her heart is 16d6ff197d more important than her 7adae335ff face!”
