Childhood Friend Is a Genius Wizard - Childhood Friend Is a Genius Wizard chapter 83

EP10. Witch Hunt (9)

“How are you feeling?”

Tina asked in a slightly worried voice. As if not paying attention to her question, Viola just stared blankly in front of her.

“·······.”

“Um… that’s what we say.”

It was difficult for Tina to imagine how she would feel now. Perhaps she is struggling with a terrible sense of betrayal. If it wasn’t for her, she might just be full of her emptiness because she couldn’t realize it.

No matter what, she will need time now. So Tina rested her viola and headed for her tower.

“Sepia. Now let’s head to the tower.”

“Okay.”

“····You’d better stay here. Even if I went to the tower for no reason…”

“What are you talking about? Are you going to leave me out?”

Viola said, turning her head and glaring at her Tina. She didn’t seem to have changed much from before.

“This is my house. I have no intention of running away like an idiot.”

“Yes. All right.”

The three headed straight for the tower. Viola’s blue eyes clearly reflected the image of the huge tower.

***

When they entered the tower, the scene they saw was unexpected. The tower was already half destroyed in the aftermath of the fierce battle, and the old man standing there was covered with wounds.

From noble mtl dot com.

The neat clothes he was wearing were all torn, revealing his bare upper body, which had countless scars.

Nevertheless, Edward stood firm with his feet on the ground, unmoving.

He noticed the presence of people entering the tower and spoke leisurely.

“It’s later than expected.”

“…Did you fight a witch? Or not····.”

Tina cut off the question. It was because of the girl opposite the old man she belatedly saw.

It was not difficult for her to figure out the girl’s true identity. Although she clearly showed that she had grown up compared to when she was young, her unique beauty was still the same.

But why are the two standing as if they were hostile? If Edward’s opponent was Levy, as she expected. Regardless of the reason, it was surprising that she fought such a fierce battle with the Apostle of Mercy.

“Wouldn’t you like to help me instead of just watching?”

“I will listen to the explanation later.”

Tina bolted her bolts to her crossbow. But she couldn’t help but hesitate to fire the aimed bolt. Sepia, who was next to her, silently raised her shield and took the lead as if guarding Edward’s front.

Even though the number of opponents increased, Levy did not show any reaction. Seeing her unusually low reaction in the first place, Tina was able to get a rough idea of her situation.

“…Is it a witch’s trick?”

“Maybe.”

It would be foolish to judge that Levy had betrayed them, Sean, to be more precise.

Then, she can only be seen as a witch’s trick. The important thing is how she subdues Levi without getting hurt.

“First of all, I will aim to stun.”

“It won’t be easy.”

Sepia’s answer was the most exemplary, but that didn’t mean it was the easy way. Even if they have the advantage in numbers, it is very difficult to completely subdue them.

At that time. Viola, who had been watching Levi quietly, walked in front of her.

She quietly recited her words to whom she was addressing.

“Totally hypnotic. I can’t imagine using it on Levi.”

“Then why didn’t they hypnotize me? In fact, it may be natural.”

“Because my specialty was hypnotic magic. I must have been anxious.”

“····Wiz. Are you really a witch?”

***

“Let me ask you one thing. Did you make Levi like that?”

“····Levi. She’s amazing Better than anyone I’ve ever seen.”

“Answer me.”

“My father will like it.”

····Father? Sean didn’t know who the girl’s father meant.

In the first place, Sean hadn’t even heard that she was Viola’s daughter.

“You, too, are worthy of your father’s interest.”

“····That kind of interest. Even if I give it to you, I won’t take it!”

Shaun charged with his sword.

“הֲגָנָה”

As Wiz cast a spell, she was blocked by a black transparent wall.

Sean realized that the incantation just now was something completely different from the chant Levi used earlier. Could that be the curse that witches use?

“Is that a curse just now…?”

Shawn muttered nervously as a chilling feeling took over his body immediately after the girl cast the spell.

Upon hearing the boy’s words, Wiz opened his mouth and spat out vague words.

“There is a difference between magic and curses. Of course, there are also similarities. That’s because it’s just an imitation made by watching it.”

“····Make it according to you. Sorcery imitated the curse?”

“Because that was the only way for the wizard in the beginning.”

A wizard from the beginning. It’s a name I’ve never heard of. I don’t know what she’s talking about, but it’s clear that it doesn’t matter in the current battle.

“Curse is the ability to inflict damage on the opponent. Although it is less versatile than magic, it cannot be compared in terms of killing power.”

“That’s pretty bloody…”

“כְּאֵב”

As Wiz uttered a spell, the curse was immediately activated. A piercing pain ran through Sean’s body. By simply uttering a spell, the consequences could never be ignored.

“Unlike magic, curses don’t have the inefficient process of drawing a magic circle.”

“Ugh…!”

You never know when the pain will subside. In the current state, I can’t fully concentrate on the battle.

Sean grabbed his stomach and glared at the girl in front of him. She looked at Shawn with her eyes full of pity.

“····The curse has been lifted. There is only one person who can unravel my hypnosis.”

“·······.”

“She opened her eyes. I have to leave here now.”

“····Whoever, whatever you want.”

The pain was getting worse and now it was difficult for her to stand still. Sean glared at Wiz savagely, holding her body upright with her sword.

“עֲנִישָׁה”

“Ahhhhh!”

An even stronger pain overtakes Shawn. Wiz, who had been watching Sean on her knees, immediately turned around and approached the edge of the tower.

There is no railing, so you can see clearly below. Wiz took a step with her foot into the air without the slightest hesitation of her own.

“تִיסָה”

The girl who was about to walk forward with the spell frowned at the unexpected result. The reason was obvious.

“Already put a barrier on the tower… It’s too fast. It’s too hard.”

Whose magic is it? Viola? Or Levi? The problem is that it will take a considerable amount of time to solve this level of magic. And maybe before that…

“Wiz.”

I will come up here.

Wiz turned around at the voice calling her.

There were six people there.

Three witch hunters came to catch him.

A boy who fought with himself.

A girl supporting such a boy.

And the owner of this tower and his own mother.

As expected, it was Viola who called me by name. She just kept her eyes on the girl. She guessed what had happened only by the bandages that had disappeared from her eyes before she knew it.

“You must have seen that room.”

“Yes. Got it all that you are a witch That Sophie served you, not me. That my blindness was intentional.”

“Yes. Do you resent me?”

Viola could not answer.

The 12 years she lived as a blind person. Her daughter is 8 years old.

Viola was seeing Wiz with her own two eyes for the first time. It was completely different from when I saw her magical power.

Jaan is charming with calm black hair.

Although the color of her eyes is different, the girl clearly resembles herself.

So Viola had no choice but to ask.

“Wiz. Are you really my daughter…?”

A witch’s child is a homunculus. Of course, homunculus are not created by humans.

In that case, the child she gave birth to should not be a homunculus. But Wiz is a witch’s child.

“····Viola Ripeor. Your daughter, Wiz Lee Feor, died shortly after she was born.”

“·······.”

“In the first place, that child could not live. . . . Because it was designed that way.”

The witch is dripping. Tears flowed from her eyes.

The girl’s tears ran down her cheeks and fell to the ground without stopping.

“I… I am.”

“·······.”

“I’m sorry. . . . I am not your daughter.”

Overhearing their conversation, Tina cautiously spoke to Viola.

“····It will be more difficult if you keep listening.”

“····Yes. That’s right.”

Viola took out her wand. As usual, she draws a magic circle.

Why? Because her hands were shaking so much, her magic circle couldn’t be drawn properly. In the end, unlike her, she was able to complete her magic circle after a long time.

The witch did not resist. Viola now opened her mouth and began her chants.

In order to deal with the evil witch, she must cast powerful magic.

Viola chose her seven-syllable incantation to make sure it ended.

“Φαινόμενο” “Ουρανός” “Ίγαντας” “Πόδι” “Υπό” “Αποπληξία” “Πάρε μία φωτογραφία”

The chanting continued for a long time. He was so relaxed that any enemy would have plenty of time to fight back. But the witch just stayed still.

Her chant was finally completed, and her magic circle that she drew unfolded in the sky. Before long, a leg of enormous magic power protruded from within the magic circle. It was so huge that it obscured the sun and made it dark.

Her giant foot landed on the witch exactly.

His feet stepped on the tower as it was. However, the tower was not broken or damaged. The giant’s foot, which covered exactly where her witch was, disappeared after a while.

Nothing has changed. The witch was exactly the same as before her foot fell.

The reason was simple. Because Viola’s magic only affects targets that the user recognizes as enemies.

“·······.”

It was not difficult to understand the situation even without knowledge of magic. Everyone in the room just stared at the two in silence.

“Please don’t pity me.”

“·······.”

“You and I are just enemies.”

“·······.”

“Can I ask you one last favor?”

The girl didn’t cry anymore. It might be because he confirmed her sincerity.

With a smile, not tears. The girl asked with a bright smile.

“Please call me Wiz.”

“·······.”

“Of course I am not Wiz, but I have always dreamed of being Wiz.”

Viola took a long time to open her mouth.

“Wiz.”

“Thank you. That’s enough. So it’s okay.”

It was clear what Wiz was talking about. Maybe it’s a beautiful ending. But there were also people who didn’t want this ending.

“Wait! What’s enough!? After doing all the bad things up until now, who would like it if it ended like this?!”

Sean didn’t want such an unpleasant ending. Of course, I know that the world is not completely divided into black and white. Isn’t that what it is though?

If it ends like this, it’s not a good end for anyone. Knots must be tied securely.

“I’m sorry about you guys.”

“Sorry, go to sleep. I hear you say that you regret your life as a witch, so why have you been doing bad things all this time? Why did you put a curse on the city? It doesn’t match!”

Sean’s anger was justified. It wasn’t just Sean. Except for Levy, who was completely unaware of the situation, the others did not look very favorably toward Wiz either.

I just kept quiet for Viola, who was in a complicated situation, because Wiz was just a witch to be subdued in the end.

Wiz was hesitant to answer for the first time. The girl hesitated for a long time before finally answering.

“…That was not my will.”

“Isn’t it your will? Then, who made you do it?”

“We must follow our father.”

“Us? No, more than that, who the hell is your father?”

It was taboo to reveal his identity. However, Wiz did not immediately reject it and looked at Viola. Wiz, who met Viola’s eyes, finally opened her mouth to tell her the truth.

“He is young…”

“Stop it. Child.”

A voice interrupted. Everyone turned around at the voice of the new person who was not present. Entering through the rooftop entrance, she is the count’s maid. She was sophie

Her eyes met Sophie, and Wiz called out to her, trembling with fear at her.

“····Father?”
