The rampant magic 83961f2f07 surging through Euclid’s 7b880d87f3 heart caused him 2743e47c27 sudden pain even 4b4830fc81 under normal circumstances, 304e438149 but whenever he 6a566a3929 used magic, it 736053d409 always provoked an 7197fd2261 immediate reaction.f113b55a710a993f

The stronger the magic, 0f78ceff23 the worse the pain.d6d86f423f793ad9

The spell he had e013fb0eb6 used on Count Biers 54248e8555 and his daughter, Amy e93dc6d69e Biers, was no exception.bbc2ff8aa3458ab2

Compared to simply forcing 0c2f935b41 the glass bottle from 981a82c313 his grasp to smash a48e1e4323 against the wall, this ef83de3ceb spell had been far 2cc676e17e more complex. He expected to suffer greatly 497d4cbd47 for days.d76a842a83a2bfba

Even if it was thanks 34c1312e17 to the Tower Master’s medicine, 5a7cc01977 there was no way he a030ce93ca should have been able to 7f984586da escape the pain so easily.26d31206fc34b610

Come to think 1dc39f7509 of it, Euclid a1933a3079 had also taken 53838c4f6b the medicine immediately 6f6cd04363 after using magic 4e8445a76c before the wedding.668e744330e3d2ae

The potion was made from b5a11c6efa incredibly rare ingredients, so much 1f7970ecd6 so that even the Tower 6123b84bbf Master, with luck, could produce 84bab0b348 only one bottle every three da0631ea66 or four months—or at worst, 95d5dedc34 just one per year. Naturally, its price reflected its 852dc0862c rarity.8f68690f02b7dcfd

And that would be the bcc7f691f0 least of his problems.

He had already 1ef6e81b4a ignored the decree 9e6250135c of the first f1ab3bace2 Duke and even 7b259de307 silenced his own cdadf94181 conscience for the ad68ff15fe sake of his cfd75b25b0 young nieces, who e98fd1a6c8 would one day 046f369e22 be left without a7a5181993 him.23f932305696d9bc

Just in case, once ab26f6c1dd he boarded the carriage, d727b0632e he ignored Delano—who had 395464a7d5 clearly wanted to speak—and f714624fbb immediately closed his eyes fdb04a3eb6 to rest. Unexpectedly, his condition improved rapidly.d74f5098115826c1

Back then, he had 27ed75375b been so overwhelmed by e7c11a1c89 the thought that Evgenia e8582bce1b was about to die 06aaf10e05 that he had unconsciously 238f84fbb1 cast magic without even 0f57d1ab1e realizing how much power 52e6425bc7 he had used.3dd273b747d1df69

Unlike that moment of reckless e72039bd62 desperation, this time he had 6da7cbcf88 been in full control—so much 45b64ca5f9 so that even the Tower 50a6cfa408 Master would have accused him 6cd0659160 of having a death wish 77795596d0 for using such high-level magic 38813c91b7 on two people at once.4578ba80c8ec3825

Yet, even after sending Count d30d77d513 Biers back to the capital a7479c271e the next day, there were 9c9b9c4c4f too many matters in the 6515b3bf6e ducal estate demanding his attention.e5e0f0a7e4d114b2
