146 “Ouch.” “What are you doing all of a sudden?” Khalid scowled and grabbed my wrist. Limp and thin strands of black hair dangled in my hand. “Just watch.” Gripping the hair, I fueled it with magic. The air around us trembled for a moment. Would it work? “Here goes.” A blue magic circle floated up, and I felt my internal mana and the surrounding magic flow into the intricate formula. The limp strands of hair stood on end. And then… ‘The inscription on…

Chapter 147 The first thing to catch the eye was her jet-black hair. “Ugh, the one who looked exactly like me has gone and turned just like Leviathan…” How indignant I was the first time I saw it! “What is this! Get out of my way! I’m going to dye my hair too! I took a certain pride in having the same color as my youngest one!” “Waaah, Grandpa, you have white hair! I have silver!” “What’s the difference?” “It’s different! It’s definitely…

Chapter 148Ch.15 The day of the presentation! I woke up, thrilled. ‘Finally, I get to see Dad!’ Sortie and I were bursting with excitement as we ate breakfast, stopped by the library to greet Professor Yuliophe, and then headed to the grand banquet hall. The presentation was to be held here, in the form of a party. “There are so many people outside!” “I know! My mom and dad said they’d come as soon as the Academy opened its doors… Ah! Daddy! Mom!” Sortie darted…

Episode 149 Even the faces of the other friends who had paid me little mind until now… From afar, Sortie, just entering the ballroom, covered her mouth and laughed, “Oh my. Is the game of hide and seek over?” A little embarrassed, I quietly buried my face in my father’s shoulder. “Ah, a-ah! So that’s how it is! Oh dear, Duke! How do you do! Haben! Come greet him now!” “Huh? No, what? I mean… why… why is she over there…” Haben still seemed utterly dazed. Count…

150“Grandpaaa…?” I started to run over, tumbling, but stopped dead. “It’s black!” “Wahahahaha! I matched it with my little snot!” Grandfather, who always let his mane fall like a lion’s, now had his hair neatly trimmed and his beard groomed! But… both his hair and beard were pitch black! “Come here, come here!” He reached out to me once more. He looked as if he’d grown ten years younger—funny, yet striking. His presence, already imposing, now felt even…

Episode 151 “I don’t need you to look at mine.” Khalid grumbled briefly, but Grandfather just chuckled and slung an arm around his shoulders. “Where are you trying to run off to? I’ll make sure you’re thoroughly humiliated. I’ll be evaluating with a cold and meticulous eye… huh?” Grandfather broke off mid-sentence, and I cocked my head curiously. Professors were swarming around the A-Class podium. To be precise… in front of Khalid’s works… “Oh my. What…

152‘And strangely, Father doesn’t seem to be in a good mood…’ As we walked down the corridor, I glanced up at his composed face. ‘Did something really happen on his business trip?’ I tried to puzzle it out, but nothing specific came to mind. I didn’t even know what the business trip had been about in the first place. We headed upstairs to a lounge above the banquet hall. Perhaps because the presentation was set to last for quite some time, each family seemed to have been…

Chapter 153Ch.16 An outdoor tea party by the shores of Lake Reim! “All right, for the grand finale of the autumn camp—we’re having a treasure hunt!” “Wowww!” The excited children shouted in delight. While the adults enjoyed their tea and conversation around the party tables, the children gathered in a circle around the supervising professor. “Search for the treasures hidden all over the academy! It shouldn’t be difficult if you’ve explored the grounds so far, right? Well…

154 The ‘second one’ jerked her head up. ‘Mana.’ It was faint, but this was clearly a mage’s presence. Narrowing her eyes, she spotted a small party taking place near the large lake in the distance. ‘Is the seventh one over there?’ She hurried her steps. Just then— “Excuse me.” A youthful voice sounded from behind. “That way isn’t toward the library, you know.” “……” Turning slowly, she found herself face to face with a boy whose…

Episode 155 Delcan Ruins, underground. “Damn it!” The Mage King panted heavily, unleashing a surge of magic power. The fortress, tangled like a complex ant nest, quaked with a resounding crash. “Calm down, please. If it collapses at this rate…” “This isn’t all of it?” The great inner chamber of the underground ruin. When the mass of Dark Beasts filling the space was cleared away, a magic circle drawn in blood was revealed, covering floor, walls, and…

Episode 156 Something… feels off. Crossing the Academy grounds, Rosetta Zevert thought to herself. In one hand, she held a speed magic device she’d slyly taken from Balok’s luggage some days before. Finding Ruby’s presentation is a hundred times more important than minding the house! Of course, of course. She had always wanted to be someone like a jack-in-the-box, a person full of surprises. She liked being a source of unexpected joy after a moment of heart-pounding…

Episode 157 My lips moved soundlessly, but no words would come out. “Zevert Duke…” The Second, who held me like a hostage, growled. “Let go of that hand.” My father's violet eyes flickered low. It was a terrifying expression I had never seen before. A dark, black aura surged out, a murderous intent so intense it stung my skin. Sensing danger instinctively, the high-ranking magical beast charged forward, breathing fire. “Dad…!” But before I could even finish my…

Episode 158 “Leviathan Zevert…!” Suddenly, blood burst from the Second’s mouth. The Mage King poured his own magic into him with wild abandon, and it seemed the body could no longer endure. Ominous magic surged. The hair on the back of my neck bristled. Something crashed against the earth, followed by an immense roar and a piercing, ear-splitting scream. Boom! With an explosive sound, dry leaves whirled up like a whirlwind. Mother curled her body around me to shield…

Episode 159 That evening. “Huuuuhhng!” The unfamiliar sound of crying filled the parlor. ‘What should I do?’ My eyes rolled restlessly. It had been an overwhelming day. Meeting the Second for the second time wasn’t enough; I had even suffered an attack from the Mage King. Upon assessing the situation, the Emperor declared Arcadia an enemy, and carrier pigeons bearing this news soared in unison toward each of the allied nations. The Academy was nearly…

Episode 160Ch. 17 “….” I awoke beneath the bright sunlight. Blinking, blinking. A strange ceiling came into view. What’s this? Where am I? Ah, the Duke’s residence in the capital…. ‘Oh.’ Into my dazed mind, memories surged over me like the tide. Yesterday… Yesterday, truly, something incredible happened! ‘I confessed everything.’ The fact I’m a mage—my entire past! ‘Life really never goes as planned….’ Once again, I was struck by that…

Episode 161 "Otherwise, I was about to die, but there was nothing I could do." "Ah, yes." "If it hadn’t been for my father hurrying back from the capital, I probably would have cleared out two more habitats nearby…" "But what does that have to do with this?" At that, Leviathan burst out laughing. "I’m telling you I had a very miserable childhood, you punk." "…?" Their eyes met. "No adult wants to pass on misery to a child." Those words made him pause and think. Had…

162“First of all, it seems finding his way is a lost cause. He’s not himself right now. The magical beast destroyed his beloved natural history museum—he’s in the throes of utter chaos.” “Oh dear.” I couldn’t understand the trouble at all, but I furrowed my brow in a show of sympathy. In the end, as Liam drifted off in thought, heading toward the pond, Void finally grumbled, “For crying out loud!” and hurried off to fetch the eldest brother. “Little fairy… come…

Chapter 163 “So. What sneaky plans were you up to this time?” I blinked my eyes. Violet gaze was fixed on the parchment in my hand. “Ah…!” Right, Dad was here! ‘If Dad helps, I won’t have to be separated from Khalid!’ These days, Dad was happiest when I clung to him, asking for help! I quickly grabbed his hem and opened my mouth. “Dad, I, I nee—” See? That smooth smile curling upward in satisfaction. “Give me…

164 The day we returned home! For the last time, I went out in the capital with my older brothers, Khalid, and Grandfather, spending the day in town. Void, thoroughly addicted to shopping, swept up all sorts of knickknacks, including diaries, while Liam, of course, was buried in a bookstore. Grandfather raided the weapons shop, and Khalid, as always, watched disinterestedly as I browsed through things. “You know, it’s strange. I haven’t bought anything, yet why do I have the most…

Episode 165‘What does that mean?’ The chill in the air brushed against his cheek. Khalid, leaning against the window of the carriage, watched the fleeting scenery pass by, taking it in with quiet indifference. ‘The ancient royal palace…’ Traces of a far-distant past, now dismissed as myth or legend, were buried like treasure all across the continent. There were more yet to be discovered than had been found. The Delcan Ruins were one such case. ‘If I’m going to look for…
