"...Ugh. Oh, that's how it should be. You must pay for the sin of coveting the position of Hamas' successor!"
The man laughed grotesquely and kicked Endymion's shin. He was able to avoid it, but Endymion couldn't take his eyes off Julia, who had been dragged to his side.
"A bastard with almost no magic power, who only trusted the favor of the tower lord and behaved like a bastard, right?"
The man's eyes lit up.
He was so excited with angry that he couldn't think rationally. If he thinks about it a little, he will know that no matter how much protection Mion has, he can't exert this much power.
But he didn't see Julia wielding her magical powers. The golden magic did not come from Julia as usual, but from the air, and the view was cloudy with smoke.
Above all, the wizard's handicap of not being able to detect magical powers that are higher than himself played a part.
He was firmly convinced that the unfamiliar and strong golden magic was the power that the Magic Tower Master had especially instilled in Endymion.
"Kill... kill. Why don't you use the power of the tower owner this time? That magic power won't stop me from kicking...!"
"...Who are you wearing?"
The man turned his head at the sudden voice. Then he noticed that Julia's gentle eyes were raised upwards.
The man smiled wryly. He dragged Julia, who was tied tight, closer to him, and lifted her chin with his fingers.
"Why, are you angry? But it's just the beginning. The price for daring to covet a seat that does not fit the fountain is... right."
Oh, I can't listen to you. Julia smiled at the man.
"You have to pay the price first, right?"
"What?"
Suzuzu!
Golden magic erupted in all directions.
The dark red energy that bound Julia was torn apart and disappeared without a trace. At the same time, a bright light that was incomparable to the previous one dyed white everywhere.
Wheeeeing!
'That's it.'
Before she knew It, her body was free. Draining the magic that Julia had unleashed, she stepped out through the clumping vapor.
"Mion? Where are you?"
"This way."
As Julia looked around, Endymion appeared right in front of her. He looked neat and unscathed.
Julia rushed over with a relieved face.
"Thank goodness! How about you?"
"It's okay. I was so weak that I didn't have any strength. You?"
Endymion hurriedly examined her arms and waist. It was a place where she was enslaved by dark red magic. However, the hem of her dress was wrinkled, but Julia was neat.
"What happened?"
He thought it was a serious situation. Endymion asked, surprised. Julia blinked nonchalantly.
"I feel like I'm going to explode because I keep losing. I was going to catch him and find out what his intentions were, but he dared to kick you."
Julia whispered that it didn't hurt at all because it was surrounded by magical power. Endymion looked relieved but stern.
"It was reckless. I hope you get hurt in the process."
"Hmm. Actually, there is."
Worried about getting longer, Julia scratched her cheek and tried to make excuses. A scream of horror echoed through the clean air.
"Ahh..."
It was right in front of them. The man was rampaging in the cage-shaped golden magic pot. It was a perfect confinement where you could see the inside from the outside, but you couldn't see the outside at all.
"Could it be..."
His calm blue eyes looked surprised. Julia smiled and shrugged.
"Wasn't it a big deal? It turned out that he was weaker than me."
Julia's delicate palm shimmered with a strong golden light. Soon, a wave of energy flowed into the cage where the man was trapped, and he was locked up even tighter.
"Ma, ma, nonsense! How dare you to Hamas! What kind of trick did you do?"
The man couldn't acknowledge the reality and went crazy. He slammed his fist down on the golden magic and began to scream.
"Hmm. Mion? It's noisy, but will I shut his mouth?"
"Why don't you stun him so he can rest comfortably?"
Endymion spoke seriously and crossed his arms. When Julia burst out laughing.
"What? Why is he there?"
A hard-faced Pal appeared with Boris.
***
Puff.
"Oh my God. I can't do this!"
In the gloomy prison, a man with clenched fists, Hamas, slammed down against the wall.
Kung!
The blue prison made of magic stone did not flinch from the physical impact. Hamas grabbed his red fist and screamed in anger.
He was a high-ranking mage of the fourth rank in the noble Magic Tower. But being in a prison for criminals who are taken as my slaves! He couldn't stop shaking his hands in shame.
Hamas recalled what had happened just an hour earlier.
"Did he attack me so much"'
Pal, the lord of the Magic Tower, listened to the alchemy and immediately corrected himself. Hamas pleaded guilty while trapped in a golden curtain.
"Absolutely not, Lord of the Tower! I was just trying to teach him because he was trying to ruin the order of the tower!"
Hamas pointed fingers at the black-haired man and screamed.
A handmaiden who had not been seen for decades suddenly gained magical power. It was impossible to do it ordinarily.
He guessed the man was promiscuous. It is clear that he had an impure intention by making the atmosphere muddy...
"The man has clouded the insight of the lord of the tower. Please don't fall for it! I heard that he... had the ambition to increase his strength and devour the Magic Tower!"
It was time for Hamas to fabricate facts and pick them up in a plausible way. The lord of the tower, who had been listening silently, tilted his head stiffly.
"Hey, you seem to be misunderstanding something, but the wizard is over there."
The lord pointed his finger at the alchemy woman. Hamas paused, his eyes widening.
"Yes?"
"That man only has the magic sword that I made for him to spar. What are you talking about?"
Hamas had a bad feeling. Speaking of which, he suddenly heard a woman's voice that said he was weaker than her.
But Hamas shook his head with his eyes wide open.
Never, never. As a great high mage. I couldn't have been mistaken!
"Ha, but Lord of the Tower! He was the one who felt the faint magic power!"
"...That was the magic I cast? Are you a high-ranking person and you can't distinguish between them?"
Pal digs into his ear with his little finger, and he looks annoyed. Hamas' face contorted momentarily.
"Lord Tower, I am not so incompetent! I didn't even feel her...!"
"You can't feel it because she's a wizard higher than you."
Crossing his arms, Pal spat out. Hamas, who was shouting in a throbbing voice, was speechless.
"What is that..."
"A higher mage than you. You know that wizards can't figure out who is higher than you, right?"
Hamas doubted his ears. He was momentarily in a daze, but then his brilliant brain, which had found reason, put together a clue.
If she is better than him. It is also possible to make other maidens have greater magical power than Essie.
Then was that the reason why the Magic Tower Lord chose a new wizard who came in two weeks ago?!
"Did I teach you that? Do you dare to come to me with a strange delusion and try to kill me in the tower?"
The angry voice of the lord of Magic Tower hit his ear. Hamas, who was trying to implicate the man for promiscuity and misleading the landlord, came to his senses in a hurry.
"Magic Tower Lord! It's not that! There was a reason!'
"It's noisy. Do you dare to touch Julia?"
Snap!
The lord snapped his fingers without giving him a chance to explain. And when he came to his senses, he found himself trapped in the depths of a prison where he was a slave.
"What the hell are those kites!"
Especially that pretty pension woman.
She was younger, and more magical than the other two high-ranking mages. However, the existence of a high-ranking mage with more magical power than him made Hamas a real surprise.
"Was it because of him that he was so full of me? Did he raise him secretly outside and now bring him in to be his successor?!"
Hamas gnashed its teeth. He grew up with only praise in his ears from a young age, but the Magic Tower Lord found fault with him in every case.
"Hamas, did I tell you? Make a magical tool for defense, not for killing."
"But if we imprint the fear, everyone will look up to us. With this special explosive fuel, you can make even those pesky Onomas behave!"
Your research is wrong, destroy everything.
"Magic Tower Lord!"
Magic Tower Lord always dented his logic and trampled on his achievements. He had enough magic and magic skills, but he didn't give him a successor class, saying that he lacked qualifications.
"It was all because he was looking for a suitable successor. Ready to hit me in the back of the head, humiliating me for decades! Ugh!"
Hamas screamed and went mad. He was so angry that he wanted to smash this prison.
Hamas cast explosive magic with his eyes bursting with burst veins.
"You thought I would be trapped in such a shabby prison, right? How dare you ignore me, high wizard Hamas!"
Oh.
Red magic gushed out of his hands.
The Demon Stone Prison completely blocked the Lieutenant Mage, but it could not withstand the power of the High Mage. Soon, the wall near him began to crack.
"Yes, I'll hit you in the back of the head first. Destroy this prison and get it now!"
At that moment, a good idea came to hia mind. Hamas suddenly disabled its magical power.
Pishuk.
No. It's not. Do you use it if you step back finely? You crushed my pride like that...
Hamas stroked his chin and laughed.
"If it's not me, no one else can."
He wanted to become his successor and one day have the Tower in his hands. But today, that grand plan was shattered. Then why leave the Tower intact?
Hamas quickly gathered energy and sent it. It was a full-tone ability that could on
ly be achieved by those with the same magic texture.
Chiying!
"Essie..."
"Hamas?!"
Hamas could hear a surprised voice clearly in his mind.
It was a success. Since they had increased their affinity by mixing their bodies semi-forcibly, the texture of their magic was quite similar.
"Oh my. I was surprised that you weren't in your room. Where are you talking about?"
It seemed that his disposition was not yet known. Essie had the same voice as usual.
"There is nothing to say. Move now."
Hamas nervously gave the order.
"Take the Festa solution out of the fifth drawer of my lab right now. And feed it to the new wizard kites! Either of them!"
"If that's the case, it's stronger than a love potion... Why is it so expensive?"
It was a drug that Hamas illegally modified without the knowledge of the magic tower. Recently, he had been secretly selling it to an aristocratic family to accumulate a lot of private property, so Essie asked him as if it was a waste.
"Such a stupid one. If you eat it, you will either make eye contact with each other or look at each other!"
