Next Life

Guided by one of the samurai was a painting of the royal palace, an area under the jurisdiction of the court magician.

They say court magicians take turns in the process of putting magic into state business alone.

When Marius went inside, there was a line of white fabric on one side of the floor of the room that seemed to have twelve tatami in the original world.

It's a landscape room with only two small windows and a curtain, just to do the magic on the noog.

"Oh, what's wrong?"

One of the court magicians who has turned a strange face was Wilson in charge today.

Describing the situation, Wilsung had a sharp eye only for a moment, but quickly turned to Marius with a well-hit face.

"Lord Marius, nice to meet you. I want to know your high name. My name is Wilson Albatom and I am the fifth largest court magician in the sequence."

It was a friendly attitude that I can't even imagine being the enemy of Marius.

In Philato, we repel those who conceal their true intentions and take the opposite attitude by calling them "transparent masks," but the transparent masks that Wilson wears must have been too clever to surprise even Bernard and Ashton.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Marius Touban. I'm an ignorant countryman, thank you."

Marius was secretly thrilled with the unmixed attitude of fear and greeted him as politely as he could.

This was the first time a human had self-declared the sequence of court magicians, but I had no particular doubts.

(Hmm, your favorite countryman. Watch it now)

Seeing Marius speaking in such insignificant Tariant language, Wilson burned even more hostility.

For him, the national guest magician declined even as the legendary Klaus Adler was elected,

It is a glorious status in which no one sat thereafter.

The biggest reason no one was elected is because Klaus, unlike the first Bernhardt, left Filato and that Lanreo became a hostile country after he had entertained the kingdom of Lanreo, it is said, but Wilsun did not care.

(Get a status no one ever got to, that's what the Albatoms deserve)

Lucas and Nilsson are Tancobs over the eye, but they're both fifty, so they can't be Wilson's competitors after thirty.

He thought the biggest competitor was Raymond, third in sequence.

The countrymen who will be Marius Touban are set to lose their legs one of these days.

(No, I'll let you lose your legs. As a true hero, you will take the seat of a new national magician.)

It had even reached what could be termed the realm of paranoia.

The ancestors of the Albatoms are considered to be one of Klaus' disciples who took part in the battle against the demon king Zagan.

He said he did not follow Klaus, who left the country, and remained under the first Bernhardt to defend the Duke and the Territory.

If you ask Wilson, it's a big break.

Even if you cooperate to interest Lanreo per Klaus, you can tell by looking at the current Lanreo that you couldn't be the Duke.

(It's ridiculous to save a continent and make a country and a marquis or something...)

At least no one should have thought about the title when they fought the Demon King.

It is not uncommon for Klaus to be spoken ill in Philato, and he must have fought with his life for the sake of mankind, for the sake of tomorrow on the continent.

But Wilson can't even imagine that.

How long did the pride of the Albatoms, descendants of heroes, distort themselves to a sense of privilege, and Wilsung even held voter thought to a more enlarged sense of privilege.

"Magic to Noog..."

Wilson was not impressed by anything when he was briefed on the circumstances.

For him, Marius was only a savage who broke a nungaroo dear to his power.

You must have been just surprised if you broke something that no one can break, but Nungaro can break even Wilsung if you work hard.

"Then I'll leave these five to you. It just arrived today."

If we were to disparage Marius, we should have chosen a delicacy near completion, but Noog is an important pillar of business for a nation called Filato.

My consciousness as a servant of the country that no more damage could be done to the savages of the countryside prevailed over my own lust.

"Our court magician performs simple magic on fabrics made with fibers extracted from a plant called Noog Hemp."

The barbarians in front of me should be the extreme of humiliation, such as a glorious national guest mage getting such a brief explanation. Hmm. I was just nodding.

(Thick face shamelessly enough, savage!

Driven by the urge to yell and do it again and again, Wilson was at a critical point.

If you yell, you will be like a barbarian, and I know a hundred or so that if you fight properly in the first place, you have no chance of winning.

It's a monster that fights Lucas and Nilsson at the same time and wins unharmed.

Nilsson, you can't win a Wilson that's not suitable for one person.

A member of the great Albatom family buries the savages without contaminating their hands.

That's what I thought, and it was a wilsung I never dreamed of thinking like that was weird.

By and large, the improvement of Nungaro is one of Wilson's ambitions.

I can't wait to be swept around by the savages in the country.

"I say get used to it rather than learn it, why don't you try one first"

Marius, who was offered a single noog long before his eyes, thinks to what extent he should be able to magic.

(It's just tougher than Nungaro)

That's a bad way of saying it, too, but it's someone else's standard, and Marius doesn't know if it is.

I can't tell Marius the difference between Nungaro and Noog in the first place.

I can tell if it is baggy or just a cloth, but that is all.

In the meantime, I'll put in the least critical magic.

A wizard can also perceive a substitute before it is converted into a magic called magic.

Wilsun, who perceived the magic that Marius suppressed, was about to shriek and scream because of its mightiness.

(Hey, what are you thinking, this guy... don't you have something called learning ability!?)

Wilsung felt he was an incredibly big fool, not at all reflecting on how many pieces of Nungaro had been smashed, but his eyes nearly popped at the next sight he saw.

Noog, bathed in the magic of Marius, became wrinkled.

This was indicative of Noog's state of familiarity with magic.

"Ah, ah, yes..."

Wilson came to the scene forgetting to fix it.

Noog has a very vague line between getting used to it and crushing it, so he needs to spend a month on it.

It can only be described as divine, such as through critical magic that does not crush in an instant.

(Ma'am... yes, it's decided very rarely)

Wilson was braved by one word that flashed in his brain.

There is no way that a man who has crushed Nungaro can do the delicate divine task of taming Noog with his magic in an instant.

That's what I think. Stand up.

Marius watched such Wilsung's attitude and was sweating cold that he had done something to it again.

(He was a favorite to me because of it...)

It was an act that made me resent my abilities.

I am not aware of Wilson's malice at all.

"Sage" was never omnipotent and would react if it was actually directed, but could not even detect the potential.

"I'm sorry, I showed you something ugly. Suddenly you will succeed, my lord national magician."

Wilson scolded himself and desperately tried to behave as usual.

While I vow that one day I will make the man in front of me taste the same, no more humiliation than I do.

I thought Marius would not have looked politely at Wilson like that.

I hope you didn't even see what you did to yourself if you could.

"No, this way. Ignorance made me a foolish imitation."

I didn't know how to cut it out, it was Marius who apologized for now, but I just greased the flames of Wilsung's enemies.

(You don't even know how to follow, barbarian! You're still a mess!

It wasn't something that I could forgive, such as leaving a shame on myself as a member of the great and noble Albatom family, and only having a gruesome following.

I would recommend something else that would reveal horse legs soon.

"Be sure to try something else. With the help of Lord Marius, we can improve manufacturing efficiency! More prosperity for this country!

Nor did Marius question the incitement complaint of the great Wilsung.

It's because I've seen a lot of big reactions before.

It was also the difference between those who were born and raised as ordinary people and those who had been beaten into the abdominal arts more than when they were minded.

"Then I'll try"

Marius took the second noog and put in the same magic as earlier.

The second one becomes full of wrinkles and circles.

(Oh, no... such an idiot)

It was only the second time Wilson had succeeded in not marveling, but his mind had been beaten to the point of being too full.

In the end, Marius succeeded five times.

Wilsun, who was witnessing it, dropped his shoulder disappointingly.

(Oh, it won't be possible... I can't believe the divine business is a streak... there's no way it can go on and on by such coincidence)

I refuse to admit that everything Wilson has ever cultivated is Marius' strength.

There must be no such thing as a barbarian in the countryside being able to do divine work.

This dark, distorted stubbornness is the reason why the sequence is stopped fifth place, but he didn't realize it.

(Ma, not yet... if we add magic and make something strong. something stronger than Marius, etc.)

The paranoia, which should also be called Wilsung's resentment, still prevented him from taking off his helmet against Marius.

However, the negative emotions previously hidden were beginning to overflow beyond the mask and Marius, by the way, sensed.

(Is that it? Could it be me, hating you more than saying you're on guard?

I figured it was because the horse bones that suddenly appeared in large part became national guest magicians.

Once we realized it, we could see the whole thing through, Marius.

And Wilson didn't realize Marius spotted him.

Because Marius is such an ignorant countryman in power that the image of a savage unrelated to brightness has become fixed.

"May I try one magic addition to what Lord Marius has made?"

That's why I brought up this question.

Once the process undertaken has been completed, it must be reported to the King and sent to the Finisher.

Trying magic additions, etc. without permission would incriminate you and deprive you of your status at least.

Wilsun later complained that he was "forced by a national guest magician against the background of his overwhelming prowess," and was going to aim for a leg loss.

There can be no such thing as the art of proving that Marius is innocent.

Come and the sun was shallow, and if Marius, a savage who knew nothing of the customs and national laws of Filato, would have caught on, he would have taka.

"No. You should report it to Your Majesty first"

So Marius' response was unexpected.

(Hey, what...)

Even then, Wilsung is beaten by unexpected developments.

It was unusual for him to develop so far.

It was due to his strength and good standing that Wilsun, who is even anti-royal, allowed him to establish himself as a court magician while being somewhat flanked by the king.

Otherwise a man like Wilsun can't even be born.

However, due to the psychological damage caused by Marius, the coolness, cunning and acting skills that he was supposed to have were becoming impossible to demonstrate.

Excuse me on this, then.

Wilsun silently dropped off Marius as he walked away with a noog, and when the door closed, he knelt down on both knees.

"Yu, I won't forgive you... just you"

Repeat a grudging crush.

So far I have laughed scatterly and cursed "losers," similar to the one Wilson himself had torn, using even Bernard and Ashton at the earliest, without the shadow of a contriver who had mocked him in the shadows.

If it had nothing to do with Wilsung's ambitions, such as Noog or Nungaro, he might have shown a little more toughness.

But Wilsun's heart was on the verge of collapse, bewitched by his ambitions.

Only the pride and obsession with honor of the Albatoms were supported.

─ ─ Nungaro by Marius can only add magic to himself, and it becomes popular as a dish with high magical resistance, but it is still a story away.
