Grand Duke of the Heibern House - Grand Duke of the Heibern House chapter 66

＜Chapter 66＞

With an indifferent face unable to feel emotions, Ruin was pouring his magic toward Mount Besquia.

As the bluish-green magical powers that began to rise around him like a haze spread out in all directions, the students’ expressions became dazed.

“What are you doing?”

“Is it magic?”

“I don’t think so?”

“… … But it is beautiful.”

A magic release that any wizard can do.

Any magician wouldn’t carelessly waste magic power like this without any meaning.

‘how… … .’

At first, Professor Gary Eldos didn’t know what Ruin’s behavior meant.

It was a risky act prepared for a mage’s greatest weakness, mana burn, if it was a magical release that wielded power over such a vast range.

However, the moment when the monsoon wind hit the top of Mount Besquia.

The refreshing wind and Ruin’s mana began to dance like one body.

whirling and scattering,

fluttering and dying

From nob le mt l. co m

Freedom from being bound by anything.

Even after being driven like a scream, it moves smoothly and floats noblely no matter what obstacles it encounters.

Whether it was a strong gust of wind or a cold gust of wind, it was only one wind that embraced the world.

The sky at sunset.

Ruin’s bluish-green magic crystals, which swayed with the wind and fluttered like foam, soon shattered brilliantly like an illusion.

“… … .”

Professor Gary Eldos froze as he stood.

It was because it was only then that he realized what Ruin’s magic release meant.

A mysterious voice began to flow from Ruin’s mouth, which had faded like the dawn.

“Orbital inertia. rotational speed. inertial frame of reference. Angular displacement… … What else is there in that wind, Professor?”

Professor Gary Eldos could not answer.

“No matter how famous human interpretation of the phenomenal world (現象界:nature) is, and what kind of rhetoric is used, it is just a wish.”

The reason why Sirha is a hero who has been called the agent of wind for a long time is not because of his excellent computing power or great senses.

He was a person who felt the wind in himself.

A human being who has lived his life understanding the wind more than anyone else.

That unchanging fact made him called the agent of the wind.

Ruin’s gaze at Professor Gary Eldos was pity.

“If you focus on magic, there will inevitably come a moment when you are buried in an academic perspective. They want to interpret and overcome all phenomena and prove them with theories. A sorcerer so forgets the simple way he understood the elements long ago.”

Gary Eldos was feeling the gusts of Besquia’s raging wind.

It wasn’t magic.

Before discussing the wizard’s senses and academic theories, it was just wind in nature.

‘This simple reason… … .’

Where the hell did something go wrong?

＜Those who do not understand nature cannot discuss magic＞

A phrase written on the first page of the book of magic in Teamaras.

When the hell did you forget this eternal truth?

The cadets, like Ruin, who started releasing their magical powers before they knew it, were feeling nature, that one element, with their whole bodies.

“Wow… … I didn’t expect you to feel this way.”

“It’s so cool and refreshing.”

“Ahh!”

The cadets let their mana flow through the wind, without complicated calculations.

This was the magician’s real ‘sense’.

The way everyone accepts and understands it is different, but what they feel is pure nature, namely the wind itself.

Ruin, who had been looking at the cadets with steady eyes, opened his mouth to the professor again.

“Are you disappointed?”

Perhaps because of the ambiguity of the question, Professor Gary Eldos was looking at Ruin with his eyebrows twisted.

Are you asking if your own interpretation of windmill magic is disappointing, or are you feeling disappointed with yourself—

‘ah… … .’

The moment Ruin’s eyes met, Professor Gary Eldos lowered his head.

It was because he immediately realized what Ruin was asking.

“… … Unfortunately it is.”

food.

Ruin stared at the Lemadel Night Castle far below, the castle that had turned black.

“That’s why it’s so scary that a wizard’s self-consciousness has inertia. It makes you forget even the feeling of being forgotten.”

At that moment, Professor Gary Eldos remembered Adrena’s numerous reports.

The fundamental reason why Ruin runs tirelessly and abstains from food.

It was because he immediately realized what the magician’s self-consciousness was for.

“Then why are you running?”

“Human consciousness is easily inert. Once it starts to blunt, it can never be recovered.”

Are they different from the high-ranking wizards of the Mage Tower?

Having glimpsed the world of white magic in the library of wisdom, Ruin was clearly aware of the advantages and disadvantages of white magic.

The collective intelligence of the human race was obviously great. However, they could not move further from their respective positions and were buried.

Wisdom handed down to a few has long produced intolerance and privilege, which has been further solidified through schools.

Wizards who couldn’t fully enjoy the advantages of competition and became trapped in themselves, suffering from paranoia and anxiety.

Professor Gary Eldos was just one of those common human groups.

“Cadet Ruin… … .”

Professor Gary Eldos had a complicated mind.

Ruin is still a boy, at an age where his ego has not matured.

Nevertheless, the ideological limitations of the human ego and the density of the perspective of looking at such human consciousness were at an absurd level.

How can you so coldly define and judge human weaknesses at that age?

If the species were not different, we would not be able to define human beings so coldly.

That moment.

An absurd imagination came to Professor Gary Eldosu’s head.

“… … Are you a great being?”

– Pooh!

Ruin pondered while leaving behind Gyrobel’s laughter.

It’s definitely embarrassing to leave Professor Gary Eldos with such an illusion, but considering his undergraduate life, it wasn’t so bad.

Because it is clear that there will be much less trouble.

In the end, Luin took an ambiguous attitude.

“well.”

Professor Gary Eldos looked as if he were certain of Ruin’s reaction as he smiled meaningfully.

‘oh my god!’

The Dragon Clan!

After the disappearance of the guardian dragon, Besquiat, the dragons never took an interest in Lemadel Kingdom again.

However, he was enjoying intellectual play at the Royal Academy.

“This Gary Eldos, the great… … .”

From nob le mt l. co m

For a moment, Ruin’s extremely cold eyes are shining.

Professor Gary Eldos, who was moved and tried to show manners, hardened as it was.

Because he immediately realized his mistake.

The dragons who started playing were revealed and I immediately got away from the humans.

A great being who began to take an interest in the kingdom again after many years.

At least, it would have caused great damage to the kingdom.

I heard Ruin’s cold voice.

“I don’t want to bother you anymore. Please stop your curiosity toward me at this point.”

“ha ha ha! Of course you should, Cadet Ruin!”

It was an awkward reaction, but for now, his intention was successful.

When some cadets were cheering for the first time using windmill magic, Ruin asked the professor.

“Let’s go back to the academy now.”

“Ah, that’s right. All the cadets, gather here!”

The wise man Egios was muttering seizedly as he checked the report sent by Professor Gary Eldos.

“That guy… … No, he’s a de, a dragon… … ?”

Nehom, the highest-ranking mage of the Mage Tower, asked in astonishment.

“Then does that mean he is the Heibern family’s guardian dragon, Bisherisma?”

Daphne, the disciple of the sage Egios, was in denial.

“Like the royal family’s blue dragon, the Heibern family’s white dragon has never revealed its true identity since the birth of the kingdom. It is an unlikely story.”

“But aren’t there only Besquias and Bisherisma dragons that might be interested in our kingdom?”

Daphne shakes her head again at the teacher’s question.

“I don’t know if it’s Besquia, but it’s clear that Bicherisma has definitely disappeared. You know very well how many years the descendants of the Heiberng family have been looking for him, right?”

The mage tower that helped the Hibern family back then knew.

That there is a huge labyrinth like an underground city beneath the Hibernian castle.

Nehom gazed at Daphne.

“But it hurts. If the grand duke of the Heibern family is a dragon, then it is impossible to explain other than Vicherisma.”

“Why are you so sure without a doubt? Could Professor Gary Eldos be wrong?”

At Daphne’s reaction, the sage Egios laughed blankly.

“He is the one this Egios trusts. He’s the most prudent person in the Faculty of Magic. I am not one to judge hastily.”

As Daphne kept her mouth shut, puffing out her cheeks, Nehom looked at Aegios.

“But, sage. So how can you explain his mana circle? Even if it’s a dragon… … .”

“They are alien beings. You shouldn’t approach it with human common sense.”

“A transcendent magical phenomenon that cannot be observed with human eyes—”

Aegios cut off Nehom.

“Have you ever seen a dragon heart?”

“Yeah, that can’t be.”

Dragon hearts have only appeared on three occasions in human history.

It was all an event that happened in an ancient legend.

Traces of dragon hearts were left in some magic books, but the form was unclear unless you directly checked them.

“Then it could have been a dragon heart. Summoning one’s own mana circle to the outside is not impossible considering their dragon words.”

“Even so, wouldn’t it make sense to recklessly expose the Dragon Heart, which is nothing but everything to you? What’s more, that its purpose is only to provoke us—”

“How can humans understand the play of the great race?”

“Then what should we do now?”

That a country has a dragon that can deal with dozens of superhumans at the same time.

This meant that the whole political situation would change rapidly.

As soon as this information flowed to neighboring kingdoms, all alliances could be forged anew.

Perhaps all of them could become attached to the ‘Alcan Empire’.

It was the biggest disaster that could happen in Lemadel Kingdom.

“Shouldn’t I inform Hirenciaga?”

A secret that can never be hidden from those who control even the royal family.

Maybe you already have all these things figured out.

“Before that, a clear understanding is first.”

Daphne got up from her seat and was putting on the hood of her robe.

“Get everyone who was investigating him away from him. I’ll have to check it myself.”

“… … you?”

Daphne hates humans outside the Mage Tower.

Egios, who knew this fact better than anyone else, had a look of concern in his eyes.

But it wasn’t that her words were unreasonable.

Professor Gary Eldos now recognizes that Ruin is a dragon race.

If he committed something that would reveal his identity or provoked him carelessly, he could face an irreversible situation.

“Can you do it well?”

“yes. Master.”

Daphne’s mysterious eyes, revealed by taking off the hood, were staring at the Faculty of Magic outside the window.
