The MC of our story was the strongest mage of mankind the first who reached the Ninth Circle of magic together with a team of the best warriors and a legendary hero he stood against the demon king and his army unfortunately the hero was not so legendary and died first before they reached the final battle without the hero it was impossible to defeat the demon king but their party valiantly decided to try it Out they fought bravely and desperately but failed in the last seconds of his life our Mage managed to unlock the 10th circle of
magic and use a risky unique spell allowing him to regress in the end he succeeded and even though the demon king killed him he went back 20 years can he become stronger to replace the loser hero and defeat the demon king let's find out confused he realizes he is back in his room surrounded by familiar Comforts he asks his Butler for The year and date but the butler is surprised thinking he may have hurt his head he tells him he's fine and asks again the butler says it's the fourth month of the 32nd year meaning
he has been sent back 20 years the realization strikes he must have used ression magic a rare spell with a nearly 1% success rate excitement at this second chance rushes through him but discouragement follows when he sees how much weaker his magic is now only three incomplete magic Circles remain few for someone from the wall purges maro's family known for their Mastery of magic bandages wrap his body making him wonder if he was beaten after ending his engagement with een Lindell his former fiance at the age of 20 the butler confirms his guess his young
Master asks about isan's family's reaction the butler tells him the Dual family hasn't responded yet which he assumes is due to their own problems M dismisses The butler before leaving the butler tells him he cannot meet the young lady once the butler finally leaves his young Master remembers the time when the hero Sig freed told him not to kill anyone unnecessarily seek freed caused trouble because of his self-righteousness he always saw himself as the chosen one and had no fear refusing to use any cowardly tactics against the enemy our boy vows not to make the
same mistake news of his Awakening reaches father who instructs The butler to stop his son if he tries to reunite with the princess the butler hesitates but agrees to inform him if it happens male knows he must become stronger to defeat the demon god his first task is to fix the chaotic flow of magic circles within him these disordered conduits had caused him problems in the past alone in his chamber he begins the difficult process of stabilizing himself focusing on correcting the direction of Mana flow a Key factor in controlling magic at the time it
is widely believed that Mana should flow in a clockwise Direction shaping how magic is practiced however our boy does not blindly follow this belief he proposes a new idea monoflow is not limited to One Direction this becomes the basis for what he calls the free circulation method a training approach that challenges traditional practices the method relies on creating multiple 12 circulation points in the Body allowing Mana to flow through them simultaneously it is a risky approach as it carries the danger of overloading the body an ordinary person would not survive the strain as the their
body would likely break apart under the pressure our boy is no ordinary man as the Ninth Circle Arch Mage he begins the process the Mana within him shifts forming a complex network of circles the effort takes a heavy toll leaving him exhausted and drained yet the results Are clear his once chaotic magic circles are now stable allowing him to use Mana with unmatched efficiency he discovers he has reached the fourth circle of magic an important step in his pursuit of Mastery with this new ability he begins exploring multicasting the skill of casting two Spells at
once known as double casting this is a challenging feat marking his growing skill and determination double casting is typically reserved for Mages of the Seventh circle but male's free circulation method gives him exceptional amount of control enabling him to achieve this feat despite being at the fourth circle he glimpses the vast potential ahead of him though his Mona reserves are a clear limitation he can't maintain this extraordinary power for long but it is enough to begin his plans as time passes and his thoughts settle the door to his chamber bursts open his father an imposing
and angry figure Enters furious at our boy's lack of subtlety his father's voice booms as he demands answers for his son's Reckless actions instead of making excuses male surprises him by admitting his mistakes his candid confession leaves his father stunned as his son openly acknowledges the shame he has brought to their family the consequences are dire if his father's threats are serious he promises to break his son legs male has no intention of accepting his father's Threats instead he urges him to listen to his carefully crafted plan our boy argues that the Duke of the
Lindell family was wrong to demand an engagement analment this perspective catches his father's attention forcing him to acknowledge the validity of his point the arrogance their family has shown in dealing with the lindel is becoming a serious issue it is time for our boy to present the core of his bold plan michale Begins by admitting his own Shortcomings he shares that his transformation occurred around the age of 23 before which he was weak and indecisive his lack of conviction and physical fragility made him an unlikely Suitor for the strong Lindell family their engagement based on
false assumptions was doomed from the start he recalls that she had expressed her dislike for unmanly men a sentiment that still bothers him he wonders if she had been misled by the same deception or if Her feelings were genuine he then shifts the conversation to the terms of their engagement with the Lindell Kingdom the main condition had been that no external Mana training could be done preserving the purity of the bloodline our boy and his father both recognized the importance of having a successor especially if they are to follow the paths of the Knight or
the Mage where bloodline is crucial our boy asks his father a hypothetical question to gauge His reaction what if isan had broken their agreement his father's shock is clear as male explains his theory he believes she had secretly been training to be a knight even before their engagement his father stunned by this idea asks if his son's claim is true his son admits he is exaggerated but he has a reason behind it m fabricated the story to test his father's ability to detect lies his father is impressed by his son sharpness our boy then hints
at His suspicions about an ancient magical tool since his father an eighth Circle cannot detect her Mana meanwhile at the lindle Mansion Ean continues her intense training her father asks about M's actions after their confrontation and she is sure her actions have gone unnoticed her father agrees both are doubtful that our boy will be her partner as the influence of Marquee while perus suris casts a shadow over their thoughts the Maris is aware of Their secret and complic ations will arise even though the wall pures Surgis family's Fame is great a hidden magical tool can
still Escape their notice Island's powers are growing and she is beginning to sense an aura a sign of her exceptional Talent making her a questionable choice for a politically arranged marriage Island asks her father about the engagement proposal from the pars slope country curious about the arrival of Leon pars slope the sword Genius and the next sword Saint Island knows leyon would be a better choice they are both informed of an arrival but it is not leyon it is the wus surgus family at the Mansion male approaches the Lindell residence with his Butler visibly worried
about the upcoming confrontation our boy reassures him determined and ready to face the Lindell family and the revelations ahead the scene shifts back to our boy's chamber where his father asks about the ancient Magic tool male confidently confirms its existence he explains that his earlier Behavior had been a deliberate tactic to gather evidence the conversation turns to is's knowledge of the magic tool her involvement in its use and her true intentions behind the engagement analment our boy suggests that once the engagement is dissolved they can come up with reasons to justify their actions his father
gives an ultimatum if our boy is lying the consequences will be severe Mel will lose his title as successor and tarnish the W perus orgus family's prestigious name well it goes without saying that Mel ACP the ultimatum as the story shifts to the upcoming encounter with the Lindell family the butler remains anxious while our boy remains Resolute he has a plan and is ready for whatever comes next Island's father is shocked to hear about male while perus sirus's arrival marz decides to act quickly instructing a soldier to deliver A message he informs the soldier that
he has plans for the day and cannot meet him at that moment the soldier quickly goes to where our boy is male upon receiving the message seems to understand the situation without showing any outward reaction the soldier is relieved thinking GE has accepted the message without objection the butler experienced in diplomacy and protocol is still concerned about the true intentions behind his young Master visit Male thinks about the plan that has been hinted at but not explained trying to understand the purpose behind this mysterious meeting however he keeps his own intentions hidden maintaining a confident
and calm demeanor he signals for the butler to follow him as they walk through the mansion's garden the young Master chooses a spot under an old tree and sits down the soldier asks why he has decided to rest in the garden male's answer is simple he is waiting For the people he has come to meet our boy dismisses the idea that the wait might last for 2 days days suggesting instead that it is a matter of patience the soldier understands the situation especially with count pars slope arriving soon the soldier tells him he will escort
him back placing his hand on him to signal to move M responds that even if the engagement is nullified he was once the fiance of the lady he served and is the rightful heir of the Walus family with a serious expression and blue Mana glowing around him he tells the soldier to move his hand the soldier intimidated backs off our boy then asks if the soldier is someone important enough to lay a hand on a wall perus the soldier immediately apologizes and can't believe how much our boy has changed in such a short time just
days ago male struggled to breathe in front of him but now he is confident and commanding our boy tells the soldier That if he wants to force him out he will give him a quicker way to do so the soldier returns to isan's father and reports that he has ordered Isen to come out immediately her father can't believe it and has a bad feeling about the situation the soldier offers to remove male by force if given the order Island's father declines saying that this situation can't be solved with Force Isen then decides to go out
by herself telling her father that she can Simply turn him away like last time she instructs the soldier to take her to the gate where he is waiting however the soldier notices a change in M's demeanor the soldier hesitates but when Isen asks if something is wrong he assures her there is no problem and escorts her to the gate back at the manner the butler asks our boy about his sudden actions he explains that the timing is crucial with count par slope's arrival scheduled for that day the pars slope family is is set To rise
in rank especially with Leon pars slope being seen as the next sword Saint male had known him before his regression and believes it is important to meet him as soon as possible our boy has business to attend to and the situation is urgent the butler noticing his young Master behavior speculates that he might have been training without Mario's knowledge male puzzled by the question asks the butler what he means the butler mentions that he is noticed His young Master strength is greater than that of the third circle despite him not being a mage but just
aros's Aid the butler believes M might have used forbidden methods to increase his rank our boy then extends his hand inviting the butler to inspect it to their surprise the butler discovers that his young master has reached the fourth circle male has achieved the fourth circle just two days ago which surprises the butler the butler checks his young Master body for any signs of prohibited methods but finds none our boy assures him that his progress is due to his innate Talent the butler curious about how this happened asks male to share the story with a
smile he reveals that his father kicked him as part of the process the butler struggles to believe our boy's unorthodox method joking that if male endures five more kicks he might reach the Ninth Circle despite this the butler asks if his young Master visit is Due to anger after his Ascension to the fourth circle our boy questions what the downfall of the Lindell family would mean and the butler suggests it would cause great disorder male stresses his commitment to preventing the dukal family from losing its importance as a pillar of the Empire he acknowledges that
the fall of the Lindell family has worsened the Empire's chaos and he intends to take action as they talk Isen approaches and asks if there is more to Discuss believing everything has already been addressed our boy insists on taking his time to talk and asks if there is a significant guest arriving Isen surprised can't respond as Leon pars slope is not involved in her family's politics and focuses mainly on his sword skills male senses that Leon's strong sense of justice will not accept the unilateral dissolution of the engagement which had been based on certain premises
Isen seems shocked as male hints that an Unfair situation might have caused the engagement to end he urges her to provide an official statement from the Lindell family at that moment the soldier enters disapproving of our boy wal perus behavior and pushing him against a tree emphasizing that even as the heir of w perus such rudeness won't be tolerated our boy criticizes the soldier for his inappropriate conduct pointing out that he lacks understanding of when to intervene Isen Lindell Intervenes instructing the soldier to release male and reminding him that it is the knight's duty to
uphold hold the family's honor the soldier complies and our boy finds the situation unimportant He suggests moving to a more suitable location for their conversation as the current setting is not ideal Isen agrees and invites him inside though the Knight mentions her prior appointment she dismisses the concern saying they can address it later as the conversation Won't take long as our boy and his loyal Butler mden enter the grand Lindell Mansion a sense of nostalgia washes over him murin remarks that M's visits to the estate have been rare a fact hard to ignore irritated Mich
brushes off the comment hoping for a more agreeable response with a touch of humor He suggests that murden could at least pretend to share his sentiment the butler counters playfully comparing his young Master to an elderly man stuck in The past although the comment is meant in just it only deepens M's annoyance their light-hearted bickering Fades as Muran shifts the conversation to the reason for their visit to the Lindell Mansion despite arriving with the presence expected of a marquee our boy has come alone which Muran finds unusual unbothered our boy responds with a laugh stating
that he sees no need for an Entourage when his trusted Butler is by his side their camaraderie shines as Male jokes that murden is his most reliable Ally their walk through the Mansion ends in a richly decorated living room our boy eager to address the matter acknowledges the value of Island lindel's Time despite the urgency he expresses his wish to speak with her privately instructing her Knight to wait outside seated across from one another Isen poised and composed listens intently M Wast no time and accuses her of lying to him she remains calm asking Him
to elaborate with a Resolute tone our boy raises the matter of the solemn promise between their noble families a promise prohibiting Mana training when engaged he presses her to recall the agreement his words firm and unwavering isan's expression shifts subtly as a hint of unease flickers across her face however she denies any breach of the promise asserting that her family has upheld the agreement to her our boy's accusation appears baseless though the Tension in the room room lingers male remains firm stating his intent to personally verify Island lindel's claims though he isn't in a rush
doubts linger in his mind about the fairness of the Lindell family to resolve the matter he proposes settling it in front of a neutral and respected party the pars slope family a grand carriage arrives at the Lindell Mansion as the scene shifts Leon pars slope steps out taking in the stark contrast between the Grandeur of The lindel estate and his own family's modest surroundings the lindel Mansion stands unmatched in its Splendor a test to their status as the Empire's fifth ranked Knight Leon senses the gravity of the day's events his hand instinctively rests on the
hilt of his sword prepared for any challenge the idea of a friendly duel crosses Leon's mind intriguing him however his loyal Knight advises caution stressing the importance of diplomacy and discouraging any provocation toward The lindel family's esteemed guests with a reluctant nod leyon sets aside his enthusiasm understanding the wisdom in the advice their conversation shifts to the recent move of the pars slope family to the Empire's Center Leon reflects on his father's insistence on relocating curious about the reasons behind the decision the Knight explains that the count family sought to escape the Empire's border a
location often viewed as unfavorable for nobility border Families often overlooked by the emperor risk Fading Into Obscurity this fear compelled the count family to seek better opportunities at the Empire's heart talk of nobility naturally transitions to the engagement cancellation between Island lindle and our boy wal perus familiar with the noble families in involved Leon finds the decision puzzling and wonders if there are hidden motives behind it the Knight assures him there's nothing Suspicious about is as a member of the Lindell family and the wal perus lineage her reputation is beyond question however rumors surrounding our
boy suggest he might not have been the best match Leon sensing The Situation's complexity resolves to uncover the truth there's more to this than meets the eye and his instincts tell him it's worth investigating meanwhile back at the Lindell Mansion Isen was startled by the depth of male's knowledge regarding the Sacred promise between their families his assertiveness unsettled her his piercing gaze seeming to peel away any veneer of certainty she tried to maintain the weight of his scrutiny was palpable as if he were silently demanding answers she wasn't yet ready to confront though his presence
carried an air of authority that was difficult to ignore Island held on to her composure she acknowledged his standing not just as a guest in their home but as The official representative of the wal perus family fully entitled to investigate the truth behind her family's actions with deliberate Precision our boy pulls out the emblem of the wal perus family the glint of the artifact catches Island's eye and for a moment her usually calm demeanor falters the emblem's significance is unmistakable our boy explains that it grants him the authority to represent the wal perus family in
all official Matters leaving no room for dispute by presenting the emblem our boy makes it clear that the wal perus family is now tied to the discussion any dishonesty will not only reflect poorly on the Lindell family but also make Island an adversary of the the wal perus family with a serious expression he questions her hesitation suggesting it raises doubts about her honesty understanding the seriousness of the situation Ean responds carefully she highlights the Gravity of his accusations and the potential consequences for both families uncertain about the next steps she realizes she is at a
difficult Crossroads the tension in the room grows as a commanding presence enters Island's father the Empire's fifth ranked Knight and one of the 12 sword Masters strides in a man who would one day lose everything to the demon god he acknowledges M's identity and wonders if he has inherited the mythical dragon Heart from his father our boy replies casually stating he has never even seen the artifact the Duke reflects on the secretive nature of mares W purgis who has kept the dragon heart hidden even from his own son their conversation reveals a sense of familiarity
and respect which our boy openly acknowledges however male doesn't let the discussion end there with a slight smile he presses the Duke for more details about the dissolution of the Engagement suggesting there is more to the story The Duke states that the engagement ended purely because our boy was seen as unsuitable nothing more our boy unconvinced directly accuses Isen of secretly training her Aura while still engaged to him the Duke laughs at the accusation dismissing it as absurd he claims that as the Empire's fifth strongest Knight he would have known if his daughter had been
training in secret male however does not back down he Implies that the Duke is aware of the truth but chooses to ignore it He suggests Island may have unintentionally developed Aura abilities and that her father decided to prioritize her swordsmanship Talent over her engagement despite these claims the Duke continues to deny any knowledge of secret Aura training privately our boy acknowledges that the Duke has acted cleverly the magical tool concealing Island's Aura has even eluded male father's perception Additionally the Duke's strong Aura makes it hard for male to read his true intentions in a bold
move our boy reveals that he has detected the hidden Aura both Island and the Duke are stunned by his ability to uncover the truth the room grows tense as he challenges them to continue denying the facts as he turns to leave he mentions Leon pars slope's upcoming visit hinting at a potential confrontation the Duke unwilling to let M leave calls out to Stop him in a surprising turn he proposes a truce suggesting they consider the matter resolved however our boy unimpressed sees the Duke's words as more of his usual empty remarks our boy tells the
Duke and Isen that he is glad they have reached an agreement and says he will see them next time shocked she can't believe male has noticed her magic device she thinks he is bluffing but now realizes he has truly figured it out worry sets in as she understands the W Perus family has discovered the flaw in the contract and might demand a higher price turning to her father for guidance isan asks what they can do he tells her to stay calm admitting he underestimated our boy thinking him inexperienced and naive the Duke now finds him
impressive and interesting Isen offers to take full responsibility for the issue acknowledging her ignorance caused the problem her father however tells her that nothing will change even if she Takes responsibility this is a matter between families and he is the one who allowed it to happen reflecting he admits that if he had noticed her Aura Awakening earlier none of this would have occurred no one he Muses could have predicted that Isen would awaken her Aura on her own without any training acknowledging her Talent he expresses his determination to protect it the Duke explains that the
Wall perus family will demand a fair price because the shial Code has been broken but he believes they won't ask for anything unreason aable our boy it seems does not want their family to suffer e still confused listens as her father tells her that M isn't as foolish as she thinks he advises her to watch and learn from him meanwhile outside the Mansion a figure steps in our boy's path Leon introducing himself our boy finds Leon surprised by his presence Leon asks why he is here stating that he came to meet princess Lindol male admits
to making some changes and causing trouble annoyed Leon tells him he thinks too little of him our boy unbothered responds that he doesn't think that way Leon growing irritated releases his Aura the intense pressure fills the air and our boy notes how well suited Leon is for the title of Sword Saint yet breaking through the aura with ease M leaves Leon stunned amazed Leon asks what just happened calmly our boy tells him to listen Before getting angry Leon's expression shifts and he questions if he is really M wal perus the so-called famous idiot with a
smirk our boy confirms it adding that since it's not entirely a lie he doesn't feel the need to deny it the important thing is the present as the demon Invasion approaches with a serious expression our boy thinks he will never forgive the warrior Who Rose up before transcending Leon noticing his expression prepares for a confrontation Male noticed Leon's face Twisted in Anger as if ready to lash out there was a sense of Fury radiating from him and it wasn't hard to guess what was going on in his mind instead of responding with the same level
of intensity our boy remained composed and acknowledged the situation with a sense of calm determination as the two stood there the air between them shifted Leon initially fired up gradually found himself settling down his frustration giving way To a more measured response in his past life our boy had often been prone to anger but over time he had learned to control it using it sparingly and with purpose this control which he humorously referred to as his selective anger management disorder allowed him to navigate moments like these without losing his cool explaining his reason for being
there male tells Lyon he came to set up an engagement with Isen which should have proceeded unless something Unexpected occurred Leon suspicious asks if this interference is because he's angry about his engagement being broken dismissing the idea our boy replies that Island no longer matters to him instead he points at Leon declaring his interest lies elsewhere a moment of silence follows as Leon steps away cautiously reassuring him that he likes women confused Leon then asks why he's interested in him the answer is straightforward our boy wants Leon to Become his ally the scene shifts to
the battlefield before M's regression Leon is on the verge of death our boy acknowledges the Fatal nature of Leon's wounds recognizing the inevitable outcome he reflects on how had leyon begun AA training a year earlier he might have defeated his enemy without losing his life despite his condition he can't help but admire Leon's accomplishment defeating vion algam the commander of the demon God's third Army Male recalls how an entire Army was required to bring down the commander of the demon god's second Army but Lyon paid the ultimate price for his victory our boy looks at
Lon wondering if he has any final words Leon despite the toll on his body seems resigned knowing it's too late he places a hand on Lyon's head telling him to rest moments before drawing his last breath Lyon silently questions the truth behind the idea that he could never become a warrior the Scene shifts back to the present where M and Leon sit together across a table our boy mentions a rumor circulating within the Divine education Bureau Leon nods acknowledging the prophecy about a warrior destined to prevent the coming disaster Leon uninterested dismisses The Mention Of
A Prophecy claiming it's not the first time such predictions have been made he questions why anyone would care about something without clear consequences our boy responds explaining That the prophecy is widely known across the Empire Leon laughs it off but M reflects on the looming threat of the demon god he recalls Cassandra's prophecy which surfaced before the first singles began appearing unlike others this prophecy spread worldwide yet no one truly believed it nothing will change until something significant occurs and people will continue to ignore it except for our boy he states that it doesn't matter
whether Leon Believes in the prophecy what matters is that he wants Leon to join him Leon dismisses it as nonsense expressing no interest in entertaining such ideas as he prepares to leave M brings up the mulier aura Training Method which stops leyon in his tracks surprise flickers across Lyon's face as he questions the truth of the claim our boy explains that even the greatest sword Saints struggle to improve but it's in moments like these that breakthroughs in Swordsmanship begin having heard this directly from Leon our boy trusts the information he reminds Leon that the season
blade Muller one of the pioneers of Aura training was among the top five Swordsmen in history Leon skeptical asks what this has to do with him Micha reveals that if leyon agrees to his proposal he will teach him the complete Aura Training Method Müller Left Behind leyon is taken aback as Müller only left behind an incomplete book as Leon trains Using müller's partial method our boy reveals that he remembered is the missing half of the aura Training Method he explains that he's not asking for much in return he doesn't care about Lyon's engagement or status
he only wants Cassandra's prophecy our boy asks what leyon will choose Leon conflicted doesn't understand why male is so determined to risk his life for the prophecy still he admits he's tempted by the complete AA Training Method and Can't let it slip away he recalls rumors about his own foolishness how the lindle family even requested to break off his engagement with their princess Leon wonders who he really is is curiosity grows as Leon asks if our boy truly doesn't care about the engagement with the lindel princess male confirms that it doesn't matter to him as
she isn't important right now he adds that the waler family isn't easily swayed Leon sees the confidence in our boy as if he Doesn't care at all about what others think of him intrigued Leon reflects on his first impression of him which had been terrible but now he's beginning to think maybe he's not so bad Leon challenges him to prove he knows the Muer Ora Training Method without hesitation M tells to follow him and he'll demonstrate they head to a nearby training ground Leon asks if they're allowed to use someone else's training area without permission
he assures him That he already secured permission as our boy swings the sword he finds it heavy and uses strength magic to enhance himself then he tells Lyon that he will demonstrate the Muer Aura Training Method he explains that Muller's method is twice as efficient as other training techniques which contributed to müller's fame for his efficiency while the principles of Muller's method are similar to other techniques it's the the execution that sets it apart the MS Ora Training Method imprints a unique engraving on the user's body unlike other methods that cap at a limit of
40 mohler's method raises the limit to 70 male asks Leon to awaken his Aura so he can observe it Leon does so and our boy notes that while it's not very distinct it's definitely the engraving of Muller's Aura curious our boy asks if Lon has learned part of mohler's technique Lyon confirms he has but admits it's incomplete and it's all he Can manage for now male is surprised that Leon found the M's training manual Leon explains that he was lucky spending a long time searching for it and finally finding it with his father's help only
to discover it was half complete our boy reflects that this outcome was inevitable since it was Lyon's first time with a Training Method the old Lyon had predicted his end and passed down the training method to male though he hadn't expected things to turn out this Way deciding it's time to return the technique to Leon Mel tells him to watch carefully as he demonstrates a few swings using the method relaxing he channels Mana into the sword and Begins the demonstration Leon is surprised it really is the Muller Ora Training Method male can maintain it for
30 seconds Leon confused asks if male is a mage which he admits Leon asks our boy to teach him and M agrees but Leon must come to the wal perus family to learn our boy leaves Promising to teach him when he's ready as our boy exits he runs into the Duke realizing the Duke had been watching him the Duke apologizes to him and his family the Duke tells male that he will leave the matter of compensation up to him surprising our boy despite not knowing what our boy might ask for the Duke remains calm male
finds the Duke's composure fitting for the head of a powerful family in the Empire apologizing for coming alone our boy Expresses hope that the proposal of marriage between the lindle family and Leon pars slope goes well the Duke impressed remarks that he seems more cunning than himself revealing that the engagement is already over the Duke guesses that the outcome aligns with what M wanted smiling M explains that he only offered Leon another option he he believes Lyon being meticulous must have thought the engagement was broken off because the wal perus family wasn't Worthy however the
Duke says he saw Leon today and suspects Leon now thinks male is different from the rumors this could make Leon reconsider the reasons behind the broken engagement the Duke then asks our boy if he believes the lindle family will ever regain the trust of the wal perus family our boy tells the Duke that the lindle family can regain trust if they show sincerity with open actions the Duke Chuckles finding this amusing he then asks the Duke what he thinks About finding a suitable teacher for een the Duke surprised asks if male is implying that their
family's swordsmanship doesn't suit her he clarifies that's not what he means but wonders if something else might be better for her the Duke considers this for a moment and remarks that our boy really does have a cunning mind male brushes it off as a misunderstanding the scene shifts to the wal perus Mansion M's father is pleased to hear that his Son exposed the Lindell family's plan jokingly our boy tells his father that he's speaking heartlessly because his eyes don't show any warmth he responds that he has no idea what his son is talking about male
remarks that such sharp wit must run in the wal perus bloodline the news arrives that Duke Lindell has sent a message saying he will visit them personally to apologize this likely means the Duke will request them to keep the matter private as it Could severely damage the reputation of a family built on chivalry the Wall perus family has gained a lot from this situation especially since he never liked the Lindell family he asks what the Duke of Lindell said to our boy he replies that the Duke didn't say much except asking if the Lindell family
could ever regain the trust of the wal perus family he assured him it was possible if they showed true sincerity M's father advises him to remain Cautious warning that it's not wise to display emotions openly our boy then says he has a request given how well the situation has turned out his father urges him to speak miale requests that he be allowed to handle the remainder of this situation arguing that since he uncovered and resolved the issue it's only fair that he finishes it as well after considering it mich's father observes that his son has
grown more confident and capable however he Cautions that this is a delicate matter involving two powerful families and there's a lot at stake our boy acknowledges the risk but asserts that without his actions no one would have discovered the Lindell family's plans while it might seem a little selfish he feels strongly about seeing this through to the end though agreeing his father reminds him to be careful the Duke of Lindell is a cunning Man known for his reputation as a symbol of chivalry but Also for his craftiness and ability to manipulate situations facing the Duke
directly will be necessary to finish this job our boy replies confidently that he understands and is ready to handle it his father agrees saying it's something male would have to face eventually his son assures him that he won't let him down shaking his head with determination as our boy leaves his father calls out to praise His efforts smiling as he reflects on how much male Has changed he thinks about how the once immature boy has grown so quickly and wonders if Fate has sped things up standing up he decides to prepare for the upcoming negotiations
with the Duke even though he has entrusted the matter to our boy he knows he can't sit idly and must support the family's position meanwhile the challenges ahead are clear the family's reputation is the strongest magic family could be destroyed due to Inner conflict power struggles among the Elders have already caused significant damage during these disputes he was used as a pawn which contributed to the family's decline the butler is asked if VI count nostro was involved in the days leading up to the engagement being called off the butler confirms this explaining that vicount nostro
is a seventh circle Mage a key of the family and someone who has supported the family since his youth although competent no's critical flaw is his ambition he doesn't Want to remain a vassel but seeks to become the center of the family the idea that nostro might have manipulated events is dismissed but it becomes clear that the vi count cannot be ignored the butler agrees sharing that he feels the same way a follow-up question is asked about why the butler holds this belief the butler reveals that he was the one who taught the third magic
circle which explains why the bond of Reliance was formed reflecting on the past there's a Realization that the third circle once a symbol of Joy was unstable likely due to no's influence the butler becomes angry suspecting that nostro may have deliberately taught an incomplete or flawed method embarrassment follows for having relied on vicount nostro in the past however cutting off potential threats is the only logical course of action for the family's future noro's unchecked ambition despite being a close friend who helped the family during Difficult times has ultimately contributed to to its downfall the decision
is made to ensure history does not repeat itself a firm instruction is given for the butler to bring vicount nostro to the room doubt is expressed with the belief that noo won't come just because he's called the reassurance follows that nostro is likely expecting a summons and will come willingly a few moments later VI count nostro arrives smiling confidently he assumes that our Boy is about to ask for guidance on Magic circles however male surprises him with a proposal that leaves noo puzzled our boy challenges the vi to a duel but with one condition no
magic circles the memories of the past flood M's mind he recalls the time before the family's ruin when no's unchecked power played a significant role in the destruction the family was on the brink of collapse barely surviving male's father once the greatest Mage in the family had been Bedridden for a long time and many highlevel Mages had abandoned the family leaving them defenseless the arrival of the demon God's disciples was the final Blow The Last Hope was VI count nostro the only e Mage left everyone including our boy watched with baited breath hoping noo would
use his magic to defeat the disciples instead nostro surrendered sealing the family's fate in that moment male swore that if he ever had the chance he would make nostro pay for his Betrayal back in the present noo is shocked by our boy's challenge Mah Hill however expresses doubt about noro's worthiness to teach him despite no's help in forming male's third magic circle he coldly asserts that it wasn't enough this response infuriates the vicount he angrily reminds him that he gave everything to teach him but male remains unmoved our boy remains calm explaining that he didn't
say he didn't trust noo he simply isn't sure he Presses norro to prove his worth stating that for someone of his skill defeating a mere three Circle Mage should be easy nostro asks how he should prove himself our boy proposes a bet they will fight using magic but without relying on circles if male loses he will become NOK disciple and swear his loyalty on the W perus family name if he wins Nostra will become his student intrigued the vicount agrees to the challenge later in his room nostro reflects on the situation he Considers our boy
foolish for proposing such a match fighting without circles might be a minor disadvantage but the difference in their magic levels is immense nostro believes Victory is inevitable he dismisses M as a naive child even though he hailes from the prestigious while perus bloodline in nostro mind this is his chance to rise in power defeating him will bring him closer to his ultimate goal securing a position where not even the head of the Family can challenge him becoming the master of both male and the walus family will be within his grasp the scene shifts to male's
room where the Butler has just heard about the match with the vi count and is terrified at the idea of male fighting him M tells the butler not to worry the butler asks if his young Master really agreed to let the vi count teach him if he loses pointing out that this would give the vi count significant power the young Master assures him that He is aware of this the butler speechless warns male that the vi count is a wicked man and not someone he should follow as a master our boy reflects on the vi
Count's cunning nature and asks the butler why the vi count is still part of the family despite his actions the butler explains that it's because the vi count has been close to his young Master father since their youth male agrees saying the vicount was his father's comrade and Friend his father would never expel the vicount because of the respect and love he still holds for him however our boy declares that he will personally deal with the vicount through this match he will ensure the vicount can no longer act against the family in the world of
Mages a bet is a promise made through magic and breaking it causes the person to lose the support of magic itself this means that if our boy wins he will gain the advantage in the fight the butler Thinks this is a good plan but only if male can defeat the vicount he asks if his young Master sure he can win our boy confidently assures him that he will win stating that the vi count could never defeat him in the dimly lit room of the Lindell estate male declares with certainty to the butler that the vi
count will not be able to defeat him the butler surprised raises an eyebrow and asks how his young Master is so sure his young Master's response is Swift and Confident making it clear that he is certain of his victory male reveals the condition for the upcoming duel VI count nostro can only use Circle magic up to the level that our boy himself can Master the butler looking serious frowns as he considers the implications he questions his young Master's decision to challenge a seventh circle Mage like count nostro while only having access to four Circles of
magic himself still doubtful the butler asks male again if He is serious about the challenge frustrated the butler pulls a folded document from his coat pocket a resignation letter showing his dissatisfaction with his young Master's bold decision our boy makes a bold move with a quick motion he uses fiery magic to burn the resignation letter to ashes sending a clear message that the butler should trust his decision still doubtful the butler questions him how could a fourth circle Mage like male hope to Defeat a seventh circle mage like count nostro our boy unfazed challenges the
butler's certainty asking if he is sure count nostro truly has the power of seven circles the butler admits he isn't certain his young Master then assures him that he wouldn't have issued the challenge without believing there was a way to win as he explains his suspicions about count noro's Mastery of the seven circles the butler grows more frustrated and once again reaches for another Resignation letter male steps in firmly telling the butler to reconsider and refusing to accept his resignation determined to keep him by his side his young Master calmly explains the details of his
strategy advancing to higher Circles of magic requires mastering the basics of the lower circles our boy points out however vicount nostro has skipped this critical step this shortcut has left the vi count with an unstable grasp of seventh circle Magic male explains that while the vicount can mimic the abilities of a seventh circle Mage it is not true Mastery it is a facade lacking the depth needed for a real battle in a true magical duel spells created with deeper understanding and skill will overpower superficial ones the young Master concludes by emphasizing that an opponent with
Superior knowledge and control will always win the scene shifts to his father's chamber a place of Authority in the Lindell estate our boy approaches his father the head of the family to inform him about his upcoming challenge against vicount nostro it has only been a day since he pledged to take over the Lindell family business his father reacts with anger slamming his fist on the table and demanding an explanation confused and upset he questions M's change in priorities and even considers whether he might have to take drastic measures to make his son See Reason unmoved
by his father's confusion his son locks eyes with him expressing his seriousness without hesitation his father still grappling with the situation tries to make sense of his son's Sudden Change in ambition for a brief moment our boy wonders if his father might have mistakenly believed that he intended to train under vicount nostro as part of the intense challenge he had undertaken male reassures his father firmly stating that He has no no intention of losing the duel he questions why anyone would enter a challenge expecting defeat and confidently declares that vicount nostro will end up becoming
his student his father still angry asks where the duel will take place intending to intervene and stop what he sees as a reckless decision our boy calmly assures him that no intervention is necessary in an attempt to understand his father questions how someone with the abilities Of a fourth circle Mage like our boy could possibly defeat a powerful seventh circle Mage such as vicount nostro M's response is simple yet confident he would never have accepted the challenge if he didn't have full faith in his ability to succeed the conversation then shifts to the consequences of
defeat and our boy reveals a startling outcome if he were to lose our boy revealed that if he lost the duel he was prepared to become vicount nostra's student this Admission only served to infuriate his father even further the tension surrounding the duel escalating with an unwavering resolve male made a surprising promise offering a sacrifice that would shock anyone if it could bring peace to their family he would willingly offer up his legs to his father shocked by our boy's conviction his father ultimately relents as male leaves the chamber a sense of closure washes over
him his father's reluctant Approval has been secured with everything in place he is ready to face VI count norra our boy reflects on the likely thoughts of norra convinced that the vi count sees himself as the inevitable Victor already planning how to use the Lindell family to his Advantage however our boy has complete faith in his own AB abilities drawing on the Knowledge and Skills gained from a past life that has sharpened his understanding of magic norra is nothing More than the illusion of a seventh circle Mage and our boy is determined to expose the
truth the scene shifts to the wal perus magic practice room a space designed to withstand spells up to the sixth Circle this room marked by the wal perus family's emblem is equipped with tools and barriers to manage the effects of powerful magic M enters the chamber feeling a wave of nostalgia it is a place where possibilities seem endless to Dem demonstrate his skill he uses a Spell called magic Missile a simple first Circle spell its Simplicity makes it a basic spell but with experience and skill even such a basic spell can be enhanced in his
demonstration our boy modifies the spell making the magic Missile controllable rather than just a basic targeted projectile our boy's enhancement of the magic Missile elevates its complexity to that of a fifth Circle spell showcasing his Advanced magical skill after chanting The incantation he releases the spell causing a powerful and precise explosion in the room his Mastery of Mana control the ability to manipulate magical energy with Precision highlights his expertise this skill distinguishes High Circle Mages from their lower Circle counterparts briefly male's thoughts drift to his past life although his body is now youthful his mind
retains the wisdom and knowledge of years past deeply ingrained within him with the Demonstration complete our boy has an hour left before his duel with vicount Nostra he decides to use this time to further study his magical repertoire preparing himself for the critical battle this confrontation will determine not only the future of the Lindell family but also the fate of the wal perus domain in the World of Magic there is a clear divide between those who genuinely understand the mystical arts and those whose power is merely an Illusion our boy is determined to prove where
he stands vicount Nostra collapses to his knees clutching his chest in pain The Confident Aura Fades as he struggles to breathe his composure slipping M's father a commanding and dignified presence steps forward inquiring about the nature of the wager between the two the vi count recovering from the pain admits that M initiated the challenge his voice tinged with satisfaction as though believing the duel would push our Boy to reach New Heights as a mage M's father expresses his concern reminding the vi count of the countless times he has supported him stressing the long-standing bond between
them this connection is what brings him here as a witness to the duel that will determine much for their families vicount norra his smile masking deeper thoughts acknowledges the role M's father has played in his life showing respect he then nods in recognition of the favors M's father has extended yet M's father now serious asks a pointed question that causes the vicount to falter in confusion he does not fully grasp the meaning behind it and looks to mich's Father with uncertainty sensing the weight of his father's words M shifts his Focus back to the duel
his resolve strengthens bolstered by his father's support though he is already determined to succeed on his own as preparations continue male's father acts decisively Casting a spell that summons massive Azure chains to encircle the vicount sealing his magical abilities according to the agreement the vi count is restricted to using no magic above the fourth circle for the duration of the duel despite these restraints the vi count remains unshaken turning to our boy with an unreadable expression The Duel begins and the vicount casts slow intending to hinder our boy's movements and gain an advantage in response
male Immediately counters with confusion a spell that disrupts the flow of of the vi Count's Mana preventing him from completing his incantation taken aback by the interruption the vi count is surprised by our boy's Mastery over magic far exceeding what would be expected from someone of his rank our boy's control reveals a level of understanding that the vi count had severely underestimated regaining his composure vicount Nostra unleashes two Powerful spells in quick succession Fireball and windbreaker forcing them forward with Force he aims to show that the gap between magical ranks lies not just in the
types of spells cast but but in the broader Mastery of magical principles male prepares for the incoming attack swiftly casting Earth break to form a sturdy barrier in front of him despite his efforts the combined force of vicount nostra's spells overwhelms The Shield shattering it in An instant without hesitation our boy summons a second layer of Defense with the Mona barrier a powerful shield materializes around him absorbing the impact of the Vic Count's magic effortlessly the contrast in their magical prowess becomes glaringly clear our boy realizes the truth in the Vic Count's earlier words about
Bridging the Gap between physical strength and skill while physical combat often hinges on raw power magic offers a different kind Of Battlefield one where strategy intellect and calculated Mastery can tip the scales with renewed confidence M presses forward wielding his spells with growing Precision magic he knows holds the potential to accomplish Feats that transcend the ordinary he begins by casting magic Missile a simple first Circle spell but elevates it far beyond its basic form through multicasting pink Mana swirls around him enveloping him in a vibrant aura that pulses with energy The unassuming spell now carries
the intensity and complexity of magic from higher tear releasing the enhanced spell our boy directs the concentrated Arcane Force toward vicount Nostra the vicount anticipates the attack summoning a protective shield that absorbs the blast with a deafening Clash demonstrating his own Proficiency in Magic vicount Nostra maintains his composure his confidence unshaken dismissing our boy's assault as ineffectual however the battle takes a Sudden shift male his Focus unwavering chants the incantation for explode a surge of magical energy erupts from his hands creating a massive explosion that tears through vicount nostra's protective shield the vi count stunned
by the sheer power of the attack is left struggling to grasp the magnitude of our boy's abilities the explanation behind our boy's feet is clear yet profound he has calculated the energy required for the spell and skillfully manipulated the Magical parameters to amplify its strength his strategic approach to Magic pushes his capabilities far beyond the expected underscoring his growing Mastery frustration bubbles within vicount Nostra who in his disbelief strikes the wall in Anger yet despite his accusation m stands Resolute his actions adhering strictly to the principles of the duel he makes it known that his
methods remain legitimate unwavering in his resolve realization Strikes VI count Nostra as he faces male's unyielding determination overcome with unease he falls to his knees his earlier deceit now laid bare M acknowledges the vi count admission his expression softening slightly but his Focus remains unwavering with Newfound Clarity male casts another spell at VI count Nostra the vicount still recovering summons his protective shield once again bracing for the oncoming Assault The Shield absorbs the majority Of the energy but the strain it endures is palpable frustration overtakes vicount Nostra as he confronts the reality that he is
being outmatched by a mage who is only just ascended regaining composure male Stands Tall his resolve strengthened determined to prove the power of a seventh circle Mage he focuses on the task at hand intent on demonstrating the true extent of his magical Mastery the battle is far from over and he is ready to show that his Control over magic is unparalleled vicount Nostra unshaken by the previous exchange remains steadfast undeterred by the previous efforts he repeats his earlier spell sending it hurdling toward our boy anticipating another round of magical combat as the spell near vicount
Nostra calls upon his protective shield once more this time the Shi is reinforced a defensive move aimed at ensuring that no damage reaches him the added layer intercepts the incoming Magic and disrupts its flow preventing the explosion that was expected to follow the vicount with his magic at the ready begins casting his own spell through the use of multicasting a technique that allows multiple spells to be cast simultaneously he begins the next phase of his attack a fiery Aura envelops him and his eyes gleam with renewed purpose our boy's father watches impressed by the complexity
of the fourth circle multic casting for even Among seventh circle Mages performing multicasting at lower tier spells is a rare and impressive feat one that displays the vi Count's skill and dedication with Fierce determination VI count Nostra unleashes three potent Spells at once directing the combined energy toward male the intensity of the Spells marks the climax of his efforts and he believes that Victory is within his grasp both M's father and the vi count are certain that the fight is Nearing its conclusion with the vi count confident in his impending Triumph but something extraordinary happens
our boy displaying an incredible depth of magical control counters the Vic Count's barrage with ease the combined spells dissipate in midair before they can even reach him nullified completely our boy's father and the vicount are left speechless unable to comprehend how a newly ascended Mage could so effortlessly neutralize such a powerful Assault vicount Nostra unwilling to concede casts three more spells in Rapid succession ice spear demon hands and sharpness magic he intends to overwhelm male with a full-on magical barrage but in a surprising turn M responds with a single seemingly simple spell magic Missle the
force of his spell breaks through the Vic Count's combined magic effortlessly further underscoring the disparity between their abilities VI count Nostra is at a loss unable to Comprehend how his spells are so easily overpowered it becomes increasingly apparent that our boy's innate talent for magic far exceeds the vi Count's years of experience the gap between them is vast one that cannot be bridged through hard work alone the realization leaves the vi count stunned questioning the very nature of the disparity before him despite the overwhelming evidence of his growing strength our boy downplays his abilities attributing
his success to Coincidence his father however presses him on the matter suggesting that there might be more to it than mere luck male though remains humble offering only a simple response about his Heritage without elaborating further mun's father trusts him deeply yet he questions his intent behind the recent battle curiosity Rises was it to show off his abilities or to prove something more the conversation turns to the role of the vi count in our boy's life while the vi Count is a trusted adviser and a friend his father suggests that the vi count may not
be the best teacher for him this prompts our boy to reflect on why he chose to Showcase his skills to his father rather than turning to the vi count for guidance male's response is clear he has no intention of being taught by the vi count his actions he insists aren't driven by emotion or the desire for validation there's no plan to remove the count from his position but Male sees the situation differently his understanding is shaped by the unique Bond he shares with his father the only person our boy considers an equal the loneliness that
comes with leadership has influenced his perspective making him cautious about keeping potential threats close even though he trusts his father Not to cause harm his father sees through this realizing it's the reason for our boy's recent decisions M accepts responsibility for managing the vi Count's role moving forward determined to safeguard the future of the family Legacy in the vi Count's room a sense of defeat lingers the realization that a young Mage at the fourth level has bested him shakes him to his core the presence of the Marist further complicates the situation ensuring that there's no
escaping the outcome the vi count grapples with the implications of his failure questioning the path that led him here just as he begins to Process this male steps into the room a move that takes the vicount by surprise the unexpected arrival raises questions why is our boy here our boy reminds the vicount of the terms they agreed upon for their battle the consequences of the duel were clear the reward was to form a master student relationship yet the vicount finds himself puzzled how could M have known he would win what was the true nature of
the prize beyond the obvious humiliation the vicount wonders If male has something more elaborate in mind a deeper strategy at play perhaps this is part of a test our boy however shifts the conversation his focus is not on personal gain but on securing the family's future the vicount recognizing our boy's determination understands the gravity of the situation he acknowledges that action is necessary particularly given the events that have transpired the vicount sees M's resolve and agrees that it's time to act he Offers his full support ready to assist in whatever manner male sees fit with
a smirk our boy takes control of the situation he reminds the vicount that the terms of the duel are clear he is now the master the vi count caught off guard by our boy's demand is stunned he hadn't expected to be commanded in such a way by his recent adversary now turned student male with a serious and unwavering expression makes it clear that his request is sincere the vicount Noticing male's determination realizes that this is not a casual wager but a serious commitment he has to face understanding the weight of the decision the vi count
considers his options he acknowledges that he needs to address the potential consequences of this bet no matter the cost he expresses his concerns to our boy reminding him of his own status as a seventh circle Mage who had supported the Marquee and held a significant position he feels that Becoming our boy student is not suitable for someone of his stature male urges the vi count to set aside those thoughts and not trivialize the importance of a mage's promise M emphasizes that A mage's promise is a binding commitment with high stakes breaking such a promise could
lead to the loss of magical circles and abilities the vicount growing frustrated points out that he has more magical circles and is older than our boy he questions the idea of Someone with his experience becoming a student our boy firmly states that the trans information is already happening and that the vi Count's new role as a student is non-negotiable they then go to the arena where the vi count publicly acknowledges male as his master the vicount understands that in his new role as a student he needs to show commitment and follow the agreement however deep
inside he is conflicted he knows that failing in this role could result in the Loss of his magical circles male now the vi Count's teacher takes on the responsibility of imparting knowledge he doesn't feel satisfied just defeating the vicount immediately he remembers his own own experiences before he had transcended and knows there is more to achieve vicount however initially resists the idea of learning from our boy he notices the instability in the Vic Count's magical circles which affects his ability to use magic Properly our boy believes that with some pressure the vi Count's emotional pain
will reveal the instability in his circles he causes the vicount to experience physical pain which leaves him writhing on the ground our boy realizes that to truly understand magic and develop one's circles a proper link to the circle is needed he explains that it is possible to create circles without transcending a state called an apostle with the vicount circles broken male Offers to teach him how to calm and restore them the vicount is surprised to learn that our boy knows about his circles VI count wonders if the mares has shared this information with our boy
and begins to suspect that the entire battle has been planned by the Marquee male dismisses these thoughts and tells the vi count to stop making baseless claims he explains that the unusual signs in the vi Count's Magic during the battle showed something was wrong Additionally the vi Count's physical symptoms like clutching his heart are typical of Mages with unstable circles male makes a grim prediction stating that the vi count will not survive in his current state he explains that the only way to save the vicount is to remove the ring Mana causing the instability our
boy offers to absorb the ring Mana from the vi count which would cause the vi count to lose five circles But ultimately benefit both of them the Vicount is shocked at the idea of losing his hard-earned circles which he has worked tirelessly to achieve our boy argues that the vi count circles are causing more harm than good before his Transcendence the vi count had been deteriorating and his circles had led him down a dark path male emphasizes that the vicount circles serve no practical purpose and are just for show the vicount had stacked his circles
to impress the Marquee w perus a feudal Effort that has no real value even Marquis Lindell is aware of the vi count situation but has chosen to ignore it realizing the uselessness of his previous actions the vicount accepts our Bo's offer he agrees to let our boy absorb his mana and remove the problematic ring Mana after absorbing the Vic Count's Mana male reaches the fifth Circle in his magical abilities for male reaching the fifth Circle feels easy but the vicount feels discouraged After losing his circles for our boy absorbing the Vic Count's Mana is an
urgent task and only the beginning of their efforts our boy knows that the challenges ahead are difficult he thinks about the prophecy from Cassandra which predicted the resurrection of the demon god in seven years ignoring the prophecy would have serious consequences leaving the world unprepared to face the demon God's power even in its incomplete form the demon god is overwhelming and no Force can resist it the Empire realizes this too late when the seventh ranked Knight steel Keelan is defeated by the demon god a great disaster is approaching efforts to gather Heroes and allies have
failed and half of the Empire is destroyed leaving no time for a coordinated response in a last ditch effort to fight back the temple summons Warriors to form a subjugation Squad called Argo MO is part of this squad during this time Cassandra the Oracle Becomes the most important person despite her young age she has foreseen the disaster and shared her prophecies often at Great personal cost Cassandra's prophecies are true but no one has listened to her warnings even as she suffers physically during M's early days Cassandra's prophecies were disregarded because no one believed her M
thinks about the uselessness of ignored prophecies he also wonders about Cassandra's fate assuming she has met an Unfortunate end unless she has undergone Transcendence though he finds that unlikely our boy then focuses on his own plans he decides to join the warrior selection but faces a problem how to find Cassandra who has left the temple after her prophecies were dismissed he needs to contact her but doesn't know how at that moment our boy Butler enters announcing a guest with business the guest is Leon pars slope an important figure male meets with Leon who asks About

until the end but now someone else has uncovered it secrets And claimed all the rewards our boy offers to help leyon by taking on the dungeon himself replacing the investigation team Leon is puzzled and wonders if our boy believes he can succeed where experienced mercenaries have failed male however is confident and assures Leon that dungeon exploration is a basic task for Mages this irritates Leon who wonders why M is so sure of himself our boy reassures Leon that his actions won't harm his Family and might even benefit them by uncovering the dungeon Secrets even if
he fails grateful for our boys offer Leon considers the training ahead male promises to teach him after they deal with the dungeon and Leon agrees though he mentions the final decision rests with his father later male approaches his father to discuss the situation his father is surprised by the news and reminds our boy of his commitment to look after the lindle family expressing Confusion over the sudden change of plans our boy tries to explain that this new Venture is connected to his previous promise he mentions hearing that the pars slope family has become the new

Grins and confirms that his father has always been able to trust him as M reflects he is troubled by his father's trust in him considering his past regrets and Attempts to escape his role since his father's passing these thoughts remind him of why he gave up on pursuing a career as a warrior his father wants to know if our boy is confident enough to handle the matters concerning the lindle family our boy acknowledges the connection but doesn't reveal any more details about his plans his father eventually relents and tells him to do as he sees

dungeon this is not a dungeon but a Grave and the grave was meant to be cleared by one man with practiced Instinct male withdraws a dagger and begins etching intricate marks on the dungeon's walls Leon curious about his actions watches as Crystal residue falls to the ground and asks what he is doing our boy explains simply that he is scraping off the crystallin layers covering the etched letters Leon still puzzled asks why our boy holding the crystal remnants reveals a key insight About goblins they are drawn to these Crystal Shards hoarding them with a greedy
Instinct continuing male explains that the crystals are valuable not just for their physical form but because of their hallucinogenic Properties by hiding the shards under a layer of magic and dispersing them they can use this to their advantage using the crystal fragments male Sparks an explosion of greed among the Goblins driven by their desire for the shards The Goblins turn on each other in violent chaos he tosses the shards into the air letting them spread toward the approaching horde as the shards glisten they create a burst of light and when it fades the Goblins are

destroyed the pouch shouting in frustration male vents his anger Leon noticing his strange Behavior Turns to the butler for an explanation the butler used to male's eccentricities reassures leyon that there is no need to worry examining the Subspace pouch our boy realizes it is the same one he lost in his previous life as his frustration Fades he recognizes that finding it in the dungeon is significant it could be a GameChanger for their Journey he asks Leon to hand over the pouch and as he studies it closely he discovers an inscription on the back the words
read Lay down the greatest greed driven by curiosity the trio tries to understand the meaning of the message the butler experienced in deduction suggests it might be a a clue for the next stage of their Journey attuned to the intricacies of the living dungeon our boy concludes that the message greatest greed must be connected to something deep within the dungeon's depths his thoughts turn to the Goblin King a powerful figure among the Goblins he believes the goblin Chief As the embodiment of greed holds the key to the puzzle M suggests they must obtain a goblin
Chief Stone and place it inside the infinite Subspace pouch Leon eager to contribute volunteers to handle the task however doubt flickers in male's eyes as he quickly refuses frustrated by the rejection Leon questions why a mage would be better suited for the job in that moment an idea strikes him turning the task into a test of skill Leon proposes a wager both He and our boy will try to obtain a Goblin King Stone and the one who retrieves the better Stone will win the infinite Subspace pouch our boy accepts The Challenge and they both set
off on their attempts Leon un sheathes his sword with precision and successfully secures the goblin kingstone his skill evident in the clean retrieval not far behind male expertly retrieves his Stone which pulses with the lingering Mana of the Goblin King Leon though impressed Realizes he has been outperformed Mich places the stone into the infinite Subspace pouch and a key materializes before them a massive door opens revealing the next step in their Journey for our boy this is a significant moment he recognizes that he has never gone beyond the fourth gate in his previous life a
smile forms on his face suggesting he has found a valuable shortcut the trio moves through an ornate door and steps into a dimly lit Chamber where their footsteps echo in the Stillness Leon the youngest member of the group grows curious about our boy he turns to The Trusted Butler and asks why he doesn't seem to fit the typical mold of someone his age the butler explains that male is the subject of many Whispers and rumors which turn out to be true however these rumors are more complex than they seem our boy is not the perfect
example of skill Charisma and insight that one might expect he Shares this fact only because he has chosen to reveal it Leon finds the Odd as most people tend to hide the less flattering parts of their past but our boy has chosen to accept and integrate them standing before the fourth gate our boy speaks about feeling as though they have skipped over certain events to reach this point the gate is important yet it holds a mystery for him as he has never reached it in his previous life the gate is different from any other Challenge
male has faced ancient hieroglyphs cover its surface and he begins to decipher the message the inscription is cryptic urging them to enter without overthinking deciding to move forward without overthinking male begins to approach Leon cautious suggests they proceed carefully he understands the importance of being cautious when facing the unknown M agrees acknowledging they don't have enough information to make a fully Informed decision to prepare male casts a protective spell on Leon and the butler ensuring they are shielded from potential harm with these precautions in place our boy opens the door inside the room is completely
dark even his light magic can't fully dispel the darkness and the room's size and boundaries are are hidden in the Blackness unease grips M his primary concern being Leon's safety determined to resolve the situation for his young friend he moves Forward spotting a figure ahead armored and with its head lowered the illusion becomes clear it's not the real leyon our boy assesses it impressed by its quality yet he directly asks where the real Leon is the illusion of Leon attempts to engage asking why our boy is in such a hurry and suggesting they sit down
to reminisce focused on the mission male declines sensing the Illusions attempt to distract him the illusion escalates attempting to manipulate him With a vivid memory that paints him as a coward who had abandoned others in the past male stands firm lowering his rating of the illusion with calm Precision he summons his magic dispelling the illusion of Lyon which crumbles into ashes the oppressive power vanishes leaving the room in an eerie silence the butler breaks the silence noticing strange crystals scattered around his young Master identifies them as monocrystals explaining their value The butler his gaze shifting
notices lon's distress confusion and despair Cloud lon's features our boy moves swiftly to his side and the butler concerned asks what their next move will be M's response is simple he will snap Leon out of it trapped in his own memories Leon is overwhelmed by the expectations placed on him by his father and the loyal servants these Illusions Cloud his mind making him forget their mission dark magic dims his once Bright Eyes in Leon's mind a plan begins to form if M were to fall here Leon's family would take take control of the dungeon but
his main goal is to restore his family's honor even if it means sacrificing his comrades with his sword drawn Leon prepares to confront our boy a magic Missile is fired striking Lyon with several arrows shocked by the attack leyon realizes he's no match for our boy especially since male knows everything about Lyon's Mona training Lyon believed death was inevitable as despair consumed him but then something shifted his eyes once clouded by Darkness slowly returned to their normal color a sense of Clarity washed over him signaling that something had changed our boy exhaled feeling a sense
of relief and recognized that it was time to move on though still uneasy Lyon knows our boy is strong and they must continue as they descend deeper into the dungeon the environment becomes more oppressive the Forest they pass through shifts into thick fog disorienting them our boy relying on his sharp instincts realizes the fog isn't natural but intentionally created within the dungeon the fog is now so dense that he can't see Leon or the butler confident ly male moves forward relying on his instincts as he Ventures deeper into the dungeon he eventually reaches the end
of their journey and encounters a green-haired girl seated at a table her expression Enigmatic and smile cryptic the girl greets him with an understated yet profound presence offering no further explanation for her being there male unfazed proceeds to inquire about her role within the dungeon seeking to understand her purpose and Authority in the situation with a gentle smile the girl's emerald eyes shimmer with an unsettling knowledge revealing her awareness of the situation she doesn't seem surprised by his approach and male Sensing an opportunity responds with a calm confidence that borders on Audacity his words reflect
his belief that he's encountered similar situations before and he's not phased by what lies ahead she dismisses the question with a wave of her hand her smile shifting slightly as though the nature of her Authority is irrelevant before she can explain further male interrupts identifying her as set the guardian of storm and linking her to the first Shard of the godessa His declaration is met with surprise and the girl reacts her eyes wide in astonishment at his knowledge male unwavering maintains that his actions and achievements have already proven his worth he expects to receive the
reward that is rightfully his the girl still puzzled by his certainty asks how he came by this knowledge but he responds cryptically implying that this is not his first encounter with such a situation accepting his words the girl's Demeanor shifts and she acknowledges that she has a duty to give the holy item to the one who is qualified with a wave of her hand a magic circle materializes before her Casting a brilliant green light from it a necklace forms glowing with a vibrant Aura she explains that the item is a holy artifact imbued with her
powers capable of transforming into a shield or a spear as needed for protection she has never named it but refers to it as set storm As he takes the necklace our boy feels an immediate sense of curiosity in anticipation holding the item in his hands he senses something distinct about it something different from what he had encountered in a previous life the spirit notices his hesitation and reassures him of the necklaces authenticity she assures him that she would never offer a counterfeit item to someone who has passed the fourth gate slowly his confusion clears and
he Realizes that if this item is indeed genuine then the one he obtained in his previous life must have been a deceptive version one that cost countless lives for a mere imitation finally our boy seeking Clarity asks if there is a way to acquire such a holy item if they were still at the third gate gate the spirit responds firmly explaining that there is no way to obtain the holy item at the third gate it is a puzzle that requires thought and without passing the third Gate one isn't worthy of the item a nod follows
as the necklace is placed around his neck the pendant glows brightly and then shatters enveloping him in a green aura the spirit elaborates that the pendant is a complex barrier designed to protect both Body and Soul it can Shield against an attack once a day with its Effectiveness increasing as strength grows though somewhat disappointed by its limits appreciation for the protection provided remains as the Spirit's form begins to fade a realization sets in the time free spell is wearing off he glances at the girl and with curiosity inquires if she would stay if she had
the choice the spirit now almost translucent gives a wistful smile she explains that repairing the ancient magic barrier requires knowledge greater than that of a Ninth Circle Mage which is practically impossible still there is a desire to see how the outside world has changed understanding the Significance of her words action is taken moving toward a wall marked with green lines and circles a spherical object sits before it recognizing its role in the dungeon's operation a decision is made to help the Spirit by manipulating the sphere an enhanced time freeze spell is cast a brilliant green
light radiates from her form and monocrystals begin to form establishing a connection to the dungeon's inner workings as the process continues her Ethereal Essence begins to fade her form shrinking something remarkable has been accomplished the spirit now smaller and bewildered by the change becomes frustrated as she notices her diminished State recoil follows her offense taken at the comment about finding her cute she reminds him that she is one of the great apostles who served an old God a quick apology is offered explaining that her reduced size was necessary to prolong the time free spell the
outcome He assures her is favorable still struggling to understand what happened the spirit questions his identity Amazed by his ability to perform a Time freeze spell with confidence he claims that he isn't nth Circle Mage but a genius with overwhelming Talent her skepticism remains and his answer only deepens the mystery surrounding him as they travel in carriages a large collection of monocrystals is carried by Mel and his companions the soldier accompanying them Stares at the radiant gems marveling at their immense value and extraordinary quantity the immense value of the manoc crystals proves to be a
GameChanger for count par slopes coffers he is impressed by Mel's accomplishment admitting that he hadn't expected such a quick return without much trouble with a confident reply Mel explains that he never proposes anything he can't accomplish count par slope jolts with realization male from the renowned walus family has Proven his skills time and again the walus family's reputation for excellence momentarily slips his mind as male reminds him of their agreement the count feels a tinge of regret wishing he had negotiated for a better deal however it becomes clear that the Count's concession is likely an
act the pressure to conquer the dungeon has been mounting and the count has invested significant resources without any returns despite this a powerful Ally now stands with him And the relief of their success overshadows his concerns the count reminds our boy of the promise to provide the mulier Training Method stressing its importance for learning at an early age always ready to fulfill his commitments our boy suggests they begin the training that day 4 days later outside the Mansion soldiers whisper excitedly about the arrival of a new Knight a mysterious figure who has come specifically to

of Mana the training can be more effective the focus is on making leyon more aware of Mana male believes Knights do not need precise Mana control and this method is fitting for Leon's training during the exercises Leon struggles and cries out in pain but male responds with congratulations instead of sympathy Leon confused about the nature Of the training receives an explanation from M that he learned this method from a highly qualified individual expecting the training to wear our boy down Leon is unaware that our boy has a different goal in mind m grows irritated with
Leon's assumption and tells him to focus on channeling Mana as instructed as Leon complies he feels his body relax and adjusts to the technique M explains that the technique Leon used to deflect spells is a crucial part of the training The next step is for Leon to master this method as his confidence grows his sword begins to Glow with a blue aura recognizing that Lon is making rapid progress and nearing the final stage of the Muller's Training Method our boy understands the importance of patience after the training session our boy retreats to a secluded area
ensuring there are no onlookers Spirit set sensing something personal questions why he needs solitude but our boy assures Her she can stay explaining that he has his reasons our boy decides to test the full capabilities of the storm pendant activating it a large green aura surrounds him Spirit set curious wonders if the goal is to test its defensive abilities or explore other functions M explains that he wants to understand all the pendants uses since it's a holy item infused with her power Spirit set cautious but intrigued asks if she can help explore its functions surprisingly
Our boy asserts that she is about to do something she doesn't fully understand this statement angers Spirit set but male continues with his experiment he manipulates the pendants Powers causing the green aura to intensify until it forms a massive sphere of energy Spirit set warns him to stop concerned for his safety as The Surge of energy could overwhelm him however our boy maintains precise control over the Mana and the storm pendant proving her concerns Unnecessary having studied the pendant thoroughly male understands how it works with the free circulation method this method involves circulating Mana in
multiple directions a task that once posed challenges after struggling with it before our boy is now ready to test his theory channeling a sixth Circle spell Flames erupt into a blazing Inferno he quickly follows with a seventh circle spell manipulating gravity rocks lift into the air Defying Gravity Spirit set amazed watches as male unlocks the full potential of the storm pendant a week has passed since our boy began mentoring leyon in the müller's Training Method guiding him through the complex and Powerful techniques the Muller's approach to swordsmanship is known for its complexity requiring precision and

deduction proves correct when they move from the training grounds to the living room where Eileen awaits them concern Shadows E's face though the parcel op family has lost much of its influence over time she clings to her aspirations of Bec coming a night her Past especially her entanglements with the wal perus family complicates this ambition her father recently assured her that the wal perus family led by the Marquee would no longer meddle in her life with her father's full support Eileen is now free to make her own choices yet the shame brought upon the Lindell

the interaction during the training session that follows Eileen struggles against the Relentless magic missiles conjured by our boy each attack tests her limits while Leon showcases impressive resilience enduring the onslaught with ease a lapse in concentration causes Eileen to falter distracted by Leon's composed performance she stumbles and Falls frustration evident in her expression turning to Mikail she questions the Stark contrast in their abilities his response is measured pointing out that her struggles stem not from the difficulty but from the openings in defenses that invite failure he encourages her to learn from these gaps and improve

well-meaning nature of his advice regret for her earlier rudeness colors her tone revealing a side of eileene he hadn't expected to See a questioning glance from our boy prompts Eileen to demand an explanation he waves off her concern with a casual assurance that nothing is wrong though his joking remark about her guilty conscience stings her Pride annoyed she brushes it off and redirects the conversation insisting he proceed with introducing her to the mentor instead of complying immediately he leans back with a composed expression and declares he won't share such Valuable information without something of equal
worth in return the demand makes her pause a suggestion of deferred payment is quickly rejected leaving her no choice but to sigh and retrieve a Flawless monocrystal from her pocket the rare and gleaming Crystal surprises him I explains that she had intended to use it for negotiations given its immense value in Dungeon Expeditions the Revelation stirs suspicion in M's mind drawing him to question how much the Lindell family knows about the Peril family's dungeon Ventures the cunning influence of her grandfather seems to linger behind her actions affirming suspicions of meticulous orchestration acknowledging both her resourcefulness
and Readiness he accepts the crystal Shifting the focus he brings up a legendary figure asking if she has heard of the Arbiter of lawlessness excitement lights up Leon's eyes as he jumps in describing the figure as the Oddball of The western era a swordmaster unaffiliated with any Empire the title prompts a knot of agreement our boy introduces the figure as milliam aralon the sword Overlord of the West renowned for defeating the seventh Legion commander of the demon Gods Army he then reveals that milliam will serve as the mentor he mentioned earlier doubt clouds Eileen's face
as she questions how someone from his family could secure Milam's cooperation especially when even The margrave of the West failed fa a refusal to elaborate meets her inquiry leaving her to dwell on the mystery turning to Leon M reminds him of their earlier discussion about the temple Leon confirms his understanding and asks about the timing with calm Precision the meeting is scheduled for the next day and an invitation is extended to eileene instructing her to prepare for a journey to the capital the sudden decision catches her off guard demands for an Explanation rise questioning the

a mix of natural talent and patience male notes Seth's lingering skepticism using blood to alter the Crystal's properties and imprint his Mana signature marks the Final step of the process as the blood is applied the crystal transforms turning a deep black Seth observes that the color of the orb usually reflects a mage's unique mono properties rare compatibility with all forms of magic makes him an exception to the usual rules as our boy explains so surprise flashes across Seth's face as he manipulates the crystal with a fireball causing its color to change again this time to

things worse creating a cycle of repeating disasters one of her most troubling Visions is of the arrival of a demon god and the potential end of the world desperate Cassandra turned to the pope hoping to be taken seriously but her pleas were ignored the burden of her gift and the isolation it Caused had become too much to bear Cassandra's unique gift has left her isolated and suffering on the brink of hopelessness one of her Visions changes merging with another sight a meeting with a man mik she sees this as her final chance to understand and

him that only genuine heroes are sought and emphasizes the importance of proper conduct Leon Assures him of his sincerity while Eileen and the butler wait with him for our boy as they turn expecting mikale an unexpected figure appears instead the knight from the underground identity hidden behind a steel mask the night approaches with purpose and demands information about a child who had visited in the Temple's sacred Halls Leon and Eileen find themselves in a tense situation with the powerful knight the knight's intimidating presence Forces them to quickly draw their swords ready for any confrontation Eileen
despite the tension remains curious about the knight's motives Eileen looks to Leon for any clue about the identity of the imposing Knight but Leon is as uncertain as she is all he can confirm is the knight's exceptional skill with a sword the Knight unfazed by their defensive stance repeats her demand for the location of the child who had been with them Leon thinks of Cassandra the Prophet meeting with our boy but he refuses to reveal any information believing it unnecessary without warning the Knight moves swiftly striking Leon and knocking him to the ground at the

the challenge ahead the staff in his hand crafted from the sacred world tree amplifies his power Holy Light a spell that would normally fall Short against such a foe becomes a devastating force in his grasp the advantage is undeniable but questions linger in his mind the origins of the creature trouble him deeply its existence cannot be mere coincidence the debris making up the serpent carries the unmistakable influence of the world tree Twisted by years of proximity to its power a grim realization strikes this monstrosity is is likely a remnant of the demon god a fragment
of malevolence Left Behind regret courses through our boy as he contemplates the consequences of his actions a decisive blow could end the threat but it would risk irreparable harm to the world tree a different plan takes shape one requiring precision and patience to exploit the Serpent's vulnerabilities a sudden streak of blue light arcs through the air the glowing arrow imbued with holy energy slams into the Serpent's debris triggering an explosion that shifts the tide of battle The Craft ship is unmistakable it is the work of the Elven Lord looking down male spots Jihad wielding the

is deceptive they can revive Endlessly as long as they remain within the debris strategic adjustments follow swiftly our boy absorbs the warning and prepares for what lies ahead a sequence of spells begins with circle expansion fluidly transitioning into the complex Divine gate a massive mirror-like Circle materializes above his head but the strain proves immense forcing blood to spill from his lips the setback barely slows him regaining composure he directs the radiant energy toward the swarming Demons a blinding beam of light engulfs them reducing the threat in an instant the potency of divine gate demands reflection
its sheer Effectiveness stands out in this dire situation Seth observing the decisive outcome is struck by the Spell's power recognition of its intricacy deepens her admiration a reminder of the Mastery M held even before his regression uncertainty lingers however the Swift demise of the demon seems almost too convenient Prompting Seth to seek Clarity her steps bring her closer as concern flickers across her face worry for his well-being mingles with curiosity about his strategic choices the blood on his hand catches the light as he acknowledges the toll admission of overexertion comes with an explanation Divine Gates
activation required immense Mana using it in isolation was deliberate pairing it with other spells would have limited its duration into a mere 5 minutes Despite the strain resolve burns undimmed the fight within the debris demands his unwavering commitment moments grow tenser as he delves deeper into the chaotic heart of the debris the discovery of its core halts him an eye grotesque and pulsating embedded within the mass Seth's sharp gasp confirms the dread it is the demon God's eye the Sinister Force controlling events from the Shadows a malevolent gaze locks onto him and Seth as the
eye opens radiating Ominous intent time becomes precious commodity as the countdown for divine gate leaves 3 minutes the eye retaliates its attack separating them in an explosive moment quick thinking sends him hurdling forward with a blink spell reappearing directly before the eye one minute remains on the Spell's clock a yellow Crystal emerges amidst the chaos its glow and unsettling sight crushed under his hand the crystal shatters as time dwindles to a precarious 30 seconds The demon eye enraged prepares a devastating strike salvation arrives in the form of an ethereal Arrow it's blowing Trail piercing through

gift that would expand his power and increase the number of circles he can wield though modest compared to his life-saving actions the request prompts deeper consideration a decision Is made rather than granting only its Essence the world tree offers a portion of itself a gesture of immense gratitude Seth voices concern over the imbalance this could cause given the tree's recent recovery the world tree counters that his selection was aligned with the reason Seth chose him in the first place an unease lingers in Seth's expression he notices and gently inquires but she dismisses the concern with
a soft shake of her head for now the focus remains on The future and the fragile equilibrium that must be maintained the world tree bestows a profound gift enabling male to not only gather Mana but also store Elemental energy within his body gratitude fills the air as he thanks the ancient entity in a symbolic gesture the world tree offers a few strands of its luminous hair to solidify their bond when he jokingly asks if he should eat them the tree clarifies with a chuckle that they are meant to be tied around His wrist as the
