How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives - How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives chapter 173

A wolf suddenly jumped out.

Instinctive resistance poured magic on him.

“… oh It’s a surprise.”

Leo murmured belatedly.

I was surprised by the guy jumping out of the dark.

“Leo! Are you okay?”

Olivia asked from behind with a worried expression.

“It’s okay, sister.”

Leo only nodded.

“But why is there such a thing in the basement of the academy?”

He tapped the frozen wolf.

puffy eyes. Gross blood vessels protruding from all over the body.

At first glance, it was not in a normal state.

“Since it is such an old place, there are many unknown secrets.”

Ailee came closer with her twinkling eyes.

She looked closely at the wolf here and there to see if she was interested.

“At first glance, I thought it was artificially enhanced like a chimera, but looking at it this way, it seems otherwise.”

“So what?”

“Ugh. I can’t say for sure, but it seems that your body has changed naturally due to exposure to something powerful?”

A wolf that evolved abnormally.

Ailee defined it like that.

And Leo thought the same.

‘It’s not an artificially created monster like a chimera.’

How long has it been since he played this lost world.

He was proud that he had met quite a few monsters.

The Chimera also had to beat a few trucks, but it showed a few distinct differences.

“Well, let’s go in first.”

Leo said confidently.

The three broke through the entrance in the dragon’s mural and went inside.

* * *

Olivia and Ailee.

The two of them said they would support Leo in order to help him with his weak stamina and build his self-esteem.

But now.

I had to admit that the excuse wasn’t just an excuse.

‘Nonsense.’

‘It’s a complete monster.’

Leo moved slowly.

[Freezing structural formula – A thousand arrows]

– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

-Hook! Kwajik!

-Quad deuk!

As he walked, ice arrows were continuously made and shot.

The bizarre-looking wolves continued to charge in the dark, but all froze before they could be seen properly.

“Kong! Kung!”

“Wake up!”

After defeating the wolves, the mage walks through the white cold air, her silver hair flying.

It was like the main character in a story.

At first, the knights themselves said they would take the lead, but Leo said it was okay and walked ahead.

I wanted to, but now I know why.

It was because of the confidence that even a monster like this could not touch his hair.

‘no. It’s not just monsters. Even knights like me and Olivi probably couldn’t stop Prince Leo.’

Ailee groaned inwardly.

As a student at the drafting academy, her eyes are clear.

I figured out at least a part of Leo’s hidden power.

“Krrr… .”

After walking for a while, I heard a distinctly different sound from before.

A cry that evokes fear from deep within the lungs.

It is a howling that only powerful monsters have.

Leo chuckled.

“At least it looks like there’s someone I can deal with.”

Olivia and Ailee could not agree.

Even the two expert-class knights were living to the point where their downy hair stood on end.

To refer to such an enemy with just such a word.

-thud! thud!

“Kyaaa!”

Soon after, a wolf walking on two legs appeared.

Although his entire body was covered in blood and his eyes were bloodshot red, the muscles wriggling throughout his body were quite menacing.

-bang!

He stomped his foot once and jumped to the floor! and it cracked.

Leo’s expression hardened slightly.

It wasn’t because he looked strong.

‘It looks like a lycanthrope?’

To be precise, it resembles a ‘werewolf’, a biological weapon created by lycanthropes for war.

That ferocious appearance in an appearance that seems to have no reason and only instinct remains.

I thought it was similar when I met the wolves earlier, but now I’m more convinced.

‘But why is a guy like that here?’

Leo tilted his head.

However, there was no time to think further.

“Kwang!”

The two-legged wolf kicked the ground and ran at it.

It moved so fast that it left only afterimages.

Olivia drew her sword as she saw the guy rushing at her as if her body was stretching.

“Haap!”

-Pajijijik!

As he drove the sword into the ground, an electric current soared around him.

Leo looked at it and nodded.

‘Electric Field. It’s a classic magic swordsman’s combat method.’

The intention was to impose sanctions on opponents in close combat and attack at will.

‘It’s just that my judgment is a bit lacking.’

I couldn’t accurately grasp the opponent’s level.

“Kreung!”

The bipedal wolf dissipated the current that coiled around it with a single snort.

-bang!

After that, he threw a huge fist at Olivia.

Olivia, who barely raised her sword to block it, was pushed back.

“Keugh… !?”

Her eyes were quite bewildered.

“Olivi. I’ll help you!”

Ailee suddenly appeared from the side.

With her black hair fluttering, she thrust out her sword.

Blue mana became tangible in the sword and overflowed.

– Pooh!

Blood gushed out from the area around the belly of the sword-kissed bastard.

However, that’s for a while.

The muscle at the cut site contracted, and the wound was covered as it was.

“… … ?”

Ailee widened her eyes.

How do you treat wounds like that?

-bang! bang!

Soon after, the wolf put pressure on the two in earnest.

Olivia and Ailee fight frantically, pulling out their sword skills.

-Suddenly!

– Kwadeuk!

It was the wolf that took the damage, but the more he was hurt, the more he went berserk.

The momentum pushed the two knights back!

“Kuaaa!!”

A huge roar shook the corridor they were walking through.

– Doo doo doo!

Moments later, along with the sound of vibration, I heard something running from across the hallway.

The guys quickly showed up.

The wolves I’ve dealt with on the way here.

Dozens of them were running toward us like rabid dogs.

Olivia and Ailee’s eyes wavered.

I’m sluggish even against one guy, but it’s very difficult when so many wolves join.

It was at that moment that Leo took a step closer.

“I stayed still to let them experience some practical experience. From here on out, I will step in.”

“Professor Leo?”

“Take a good look.”

Leo lightly put Olivia and Ailee on their shoulders.

He smiled slightly, and held out a hand.

At that moment, the two felt it.

The invisible, gigantic momentum that bloomed from Leo’s body soared to the end of the sky.

A skill that can only be seen by those who have reached the highest level.

He built the pillar of willpower, the Heavenly Pillar.

[Extreme Ice – Cryogenic Beam]

A beam of ice fired from Leo’s outstretched hand.

The beam of ice that covered the entire corridor was shot so far that it was impossible to know where it ended.

– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

After the beam was fired, Olivia and Ailee opened their mouths.

All the bipedal wolves that had been fighting hard just a moment ago and the pack of wolves that followed them all froze.

Even that was not enough, so the hallway was covered with white ice.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the inside was now the North Pole.

“Three, my God… .”

“This… A person who can use this type of magic must be a 5th class mage… no?”

If you are at the drafting academy, it is not difficult to see a 5th class mage serving as a professor.

I sometimes see them use magic in class, but this wasn’t it.

In the first place, those who can use magic of such unreasonable power are those who have surpassed the realm.

Among the sword masters, it was the highest level, but only mages of 6th rank or higher were able to do it.

Since it was still a secret that Leo had reached the 6th rank, the two looked at Leo in amazement.

“Ser, no way Leo… ?”

“Yes, sister.”

“5… Wasn’t it class 6 instead of rank?”

“Yes.”

Leo nodded nonchalantly.

“In the first place, I never introduced myself as a 5th class mage.”

As an outside guest professor, I only gave lectures.

It was the students who faced Leo with their own judgment that misunderstood him as a 5th class.

Of course, at the age of 12, being in the 5th class doesn’t even make sense, so who would think of it as being in the 6th class? .

“Shall we go again? It’s a waste of time against a guy like that, so let’s go.”

To Leo, time is more precious than gold.

The three of them walked down a hallway that had now turned into a field of ice.

* * *

The end of the corridor was quite far.

And what was even more surprising was that Leo’s ice was still affecting him.

In the middle, I passed a pack of wolves that turned into ice statues.

Olivia muttered softly every time.

“A monster has been born in our family.”

Perhaps thanks to the founder, King Karst, all bloodlines of the Roman family have outstanding talents.

Right now, Olivia also had the talent of one of the best magic swordsmen in the academy.

However, as he watched his younger brother Leo from the sidelines, he realized that he was nothing.

‘no. Maybe he has more talent than the founder.’

Although he had not personally seen the heroes, it was questionable whether they would show such a performance.

Ailee also nodded eagerly next to her and agreed with her opinion.

Either way, Leo’s eyes twinkled.

‘It’s finally arrived.’

After passing through the boring hallway, a large dome-shaped space appeared at the end.

I was wondering if I should be picked up by Olivia again if it was a little further away, but it came out just right.

Leo cast his gaze away.

Inside the tall and wide space, there was an altar-like structure.

It looks like a pyramid was cut horizontally and then only the bottom was placed.

There was something golden on top of it, though it was hard to see from afar.

You’ll have to look closely, but Leo was instinctively convinced.

‘That’s a dragon artifact.’

It was the confidence that the knowledge of the dragon that entered his body conveyed.

Leo took a step.

– Ugh!

As soon as he stepped into the dome-shaped space, the entire space began to glow softly.

The hidden trap magic circle was activated.

“… … !”

Particles of mana rise as if they were trying to restrain themselves.

[Test the intruder.]

At the same time, a strange voice echoed through the room.

Leo smiled and waved his hand.

“What kind of test is it?”

Should I do that in my spare time?

– Kwajangchang!

There was a sound that only Leo could hear, the circuit of the magic circle being shattered.

right after that.

[The intruder… Chijik… exam… Chijik… synthesis… .]

-Geee… .

The light of the magic circle that had been shining slowly went out.
