The Rebirth of the Hero’s Party’s Archmage Chapter 17

Episode 17

“Hot, new member? hmm… … ?”

Logan’s eyes, which had been cockily tilting his head as if it was absurd, narrowed for an instant.

‘Christa Warden… … .’

It was because of the genius girl who walked in behind the boy. It was because of the achievements of the late exponents of the Eight Great Schools.

‘then… … .’

Red eyes with black hair.

Ah, this guy is the master of the famous Ludwig family. A cynicism formed on the corner of Logan’s mouth.

“Oh, someone said it, but who was it? Closed class… … Oh my, mistake! sorry. “I have a habit of letting my thoughts come out of my mouth right away.”

Anyone can see that it was definitely not a slip of the tongue, but part of a war of nerves. Logan smiled calmly and pretended to be polite.

“As a disciple of the Eight Great Schools, I had been thinking of visiting the noble Confucius in person sometime to offer my greetings, but it just so happened that it happened. But what about the magic war? Did I hear it wrong?”

As Logan’s large figure approached and stood in front of Lane, an intimidating shadow was cast.

Logan’s physique was a head and a half taller than other kids his age, so much so that even Lane, who was above average height, looked down on him as if he was overwhelming.

“You heard correctly. “They say they want to stick together like that, so I’m going to deal with them once.”

“Hahaha! So, you are confident that you can easily beat this Logan, are you saying?”

There was still a hint of sarcasm on Logan’s lips, but the smile in his eyes had long since disappeared.

“If I’m not confident, should I give myself a handicap? Hmm, wouldn’t it be okay if I didn’t use any combat magic?”

“Rain, are you out of your mind… … ?”

“This will work. I will only use magic developed in this club. I only use three spells. how is it?”

“Are you serious about what you say?”

“I don’t think we’ll lose even if we do that.”

Logan blinked in bewilderment, then held his stomach and burst into laughter.

“This isn’t a waste of money, it’s completely…” … Oh, I’m sorry. Confucius. great. But do you know that it takes three days to get married?”

“?”

“So, what I’m saying is that this can only be accomplished through an individual-to-individual magic battle.”

“Just get to the point.”

“If Confucius wins, fine. I am giving up on this club. Not only that, if other guys come to start a fight, I will kick them out instead.”

Christa’s eyes narrowed. The fact that he offers strangely good conditions means that there must be a commensurate price.

“But if I win, well, Confucius will hand over my resignation letter to this . The reason for dropping out was that after watching Chaihak’s Logan, I felt a wall, to this extent?”

This was an absurd condition. That’s why Christa took a step forward.

Magical talent is not the only thing that is essential for the descendants of the Madose family. Education is also important. Here, Lane is the natural heir of the Ludwig family.

If such a person submitted a letter of resignation to , not only would the family’s prestige fall to the ground, but there was also a possibility that even if he received an inheritance in the future, he would not be recognized by other families under Segana.

“Are you kidding me? At most, you give up one club—”

“—It’s okay, Christa.”

“Do you not know what this situation is?”

“Do you need to know what’s going on? “I’m going to win anyway.”

The phosphorescence that shone in Lane’s eyes at that time was so cold that it was creepy… … Christa closed her mouth without realizing it.

“Don’t run away. “You can decide the day and time as you wish.”

“Hahaha! That’s what I was trying to say. I will hire a professor to look after the referee. “Without further delay, let’s meet at Dragon Blood Market at 6pm tonight.”

And after giving a sloppy, aristocratic greeting as if teasing Lane, Logan passed them by and walked out the door.

‘This is a really big catch.’

The eldest son of the Sedo family was brought into the Magic Battle, and that was Lane Ludwig, who was rumored to be a low-ranking prince.

‘Still, it is an undeniable fact that he is a descendant of the Sega family.’

Traditionally, the descendants of the Sega family did not participate in magic battles unless it was to openly insult the family.

This is because they have more to lose than to gain.

Of course, that doesn’t make it profitable to insult the Madose family just to hold a magic war. Even if you get expelled, you have nothing to say. The president of this school is Madosega.

But this… … The other side came out first.

‘I’m sure I’ll receive a lot of praise from the dean and elders?’

If he defeats the other Sega descendants who are rushing for revenge, he might be able to aim for the position of the next dean.

“It’s such an amazing day, isn’t it?”

Meanwhile, Christa, who was left behind in the club room, broke the silence by pressing her temples and sighing.

“Yes, you… … Speaking of magic wars, are you aware of your location?”

“ 1st year?”

“Stop playing around.”

“I’m serious. “What is it, then?”

“You are a child of the same family as me. “Does it make sense that you don’t know where we are?”

Christa sighed, and when the boy just looked at the research books on the club’s bookshelf without responding, she became very angry.

“Oh yeah. do whatever you want. “It was a mistake to be seriously worried.”

As Christa shook her head and walked away, the boy had to shake his head because he didn’t understand what was happening.

“Why are you so angry? “What did I do?”

“You did something that couldn’t be understood through common sense.”

The person who opened his mouth at that time was a boy of short stature who was picking up glasses that had fallen on the floor.

The seal engraved on the student’s ring was not ‘sleeping dragon’ but ‘dragon with spread wings’. You could say that I am a second year student.

“Sega’s descendants never appear in Magic Wars.”

“why?”

“There’s not much to gain, but there’s a lot to lose, isn’t there?”

If the status was different, that is, if you were a commoner, it was common to use honorifics to nobles, even if they were your senior.

There were nobles who used polite language to their commoner seniors out of courtesy, but they were very few.

“So, I also feel more wary than grateful. why… … Did you help me? “Because I don’t know why.”

Why did you help me? … .

It was a more difficult question than most math problems for Lane, who, unlike Lista, had no problem speaking in this area.

“I didn’t really help you. “It just reminded me of homework I had forgotten about.”

“Homework? What did you do to Confucius? … .”

“I think the homework will be completed much faster and easier if I stay here. “I was only acting in my own interest, so don’t worry about it.”

Rista might have said, “Do you need a reason to help people?” With a big smile.

I don’t know how to smile like that. I don’t even know how to say that. He doesn’t have the personality to smile and talk like that.

So, I will just live as a calculating person like before.

“I am grateful, but I think you are underestimating Logan’s abilities… … .”

“How is it?”

“Logan is a Ging-type wizard. As you know, the compatibility with ordinary wizards is extremely good.”

I heard from the club’s manager, Joen, that Logan was so outstanding not only in his magical skills but also in his physical abilities that he even went to study abroad at one of the six major gates of the Republic and learned martial arts.

“So, I heard that the overall win rate in magic battles against other schools is over 90%… … .”

Joen sat down against the wall, laughing out of self-destruction.

“You did something very reckless against a guy like that. He’s not worth helping me. I said something strange earlier… … .”

“… … ?”

“I spoke grandiosely to Logan earlier, but it’s not actually that grandiose club. I just grew up in the countryside. “The village residents saved up money and paid for college tuition.”

Joen said that he joined this club and studied magic in order to return to his hometown after graduation and give back to his hometown.

“Just for personal reasons… … Pathetic, right? Sorry, Confucius. “I will just leave this magic battle.”

Joen smiled bitterly and touched his broken glasses.

The chance of winning is zero.

But isn’t that a winning rate that is applied more harshly to Lane, who is called a low-ranking player? There is no need to inconvenience a club that will end anyway.

“That’s strange, why is that pathetic?”

Suddenly, that voice resonated in my heart like ripples spreading across the lake.

“Do you know why Rin started doing magic?”

“Archmage Rin? that… … “She said she loved magic since she was little.”

“No, at first I just did it because I wanted to live. I finally managed to sleep like a human and eat like a human so I wouldn’t be abandoned. Relentlessly. “I started liking it a little later.”

Lane’s voice, as he looked through the bookshelves with an indifferent expression, was somehow deep, as if recalling a distant memory.

“yes… … ? “I’ve never read a book with that kind of behind-the-scenes story.”

“I studied like that, but at some point, I followed Rista, and at some point, I became an archmage.”

Raine, who was flipping open a book, slammed it shut, looked back at Joen, and smiled.

“Is there a law that says you can’t do that just because you’re a senior? “No.”

“… … ?!”

“Let’s borrow some of these books. “You’ll have to get used to it if you want to use it in magic battles.”

Even after Lane picked a few books from the bookshelf and left, Joen was unable to stand up and was staring blankly at the door he had left through.

My heart was beating quietly.

My whole body was quietly trembling.

What is this feeling? Rather than talking to a junior I had never met before, it was as if I had received advice from a senior colleague whose knowledge I did not know. … .

* * *

“lane!”

At that voice that sounded like teeth grinding together, Lane felt an instinctive fear and stopped. When I glanced back, as expected… … .

“Aunt, how have you been?”

It was Elin Ludwig.

A beauty with a sharp cat face and a badass outfit.

She was a professor at , with physical features exactly the same as Lane Ludwig, including long black hair and red eyes.

“If it were you, would you have been fine? Ahhh?”

He wrapped his arms around his neck and pulled him close, then slammed his fist into the top of his head with his other hand.

“Fighting against the Pal University faction… … No, you’re talking about a magic war? huh? “There was a huge rumor going around the school. Did I hear something wrong?”

“It’s surprisingly real.”

“Oh yeah? I really can’t help it. Since my cute nephew has made such a big deal out of it, shall we have some fun and have a drink today?”

“Ah, ah, it hurts! “It really hurts!”

“If I end up with Logan, it will hurt several times more than this, so what the hell. you idiot!”

At that point, Elin let go of Rain and sighed as the ground fell. Lane asked, touching the lump on the top of her head.

“Are you here because you’re worried?”

“worry? Who was worried! Do I look like a pathetic aunt who was worried about a low-ranking prince like you and would have asked each of the children where he went and waited for them? “Illusion is just like oil, you low-ranking nephew!”

Aunt.

You’ve been looking for me a lot.

As Elin turned around and tried to leave with an angry gait, Lane spoke.

“I’m sorry, Aunt. I didn’t know that this was something I shouldn’t do. “I will make sure that nothing brings shame to the family.”

Then Elin’s steps, which were about to turn the corner and leave, stopped for a moment.

“Well, that’s okay. I was just about to get a little annoyed by people calling you a low-ranking Confucius. “It’s just so-so.”

“… … .”

“Make sure you do what you already did. So that other guys can’t even think of climbing up there for the rest of their lives. “Because you have the name of the Ludwig family on your back.”

Hmph, Elin Ludwig snorted as if she had heard everything and disappeared from sight.

It’s the name of the Ludwig family… … .

You said you weren’t honest, but you came here because you were worried about your family. I need to make sure that I don’t disappoint you and get scolded for the rest of my life.
