I Became an Outcast in the Academy - I Became an Outcast in the Academy chapter 66

10. Struggling (12)

Wizards are beings who seek to reach the truth by refining their knowledge.

For magicians, magic is both a measure and a tool that shows how well they have explained the structure of the world.

To that extent, for wizards, magic is everything they have, and it is the same as everything.

Therefore, a person who cannot use magic is the same as a person who has no value in existence by the standards of wizards.

What can you do if you carry all the knowledge about magic in your head? In fact, there is no means to utilize that knowledge and explain the truth.

To use an analogy, you would be in the same situation as a rich person who has a lot of gold coins in his safe but cannot take them out because he has lost the key that locks the safe.

That is why wizards fear the possibility of being unable to use magic more than anything else in the world.

This would be a story about being reduced to the incompetent person that you so despised until now.

“… Through the connection between you and me, I have disrupted all of your magic circuits. “From now on, you will not be able to use magic like before.”

Her cyan muttered softly as she looked at Leticia, who had fainted, unable to overcome the recoil, perhaps due to the effect of forcibly interfering with her opponent’s body through her interference.

At first, she thought about forcing Leticia to become a warlock like Lobelia so she could never carry her face in the sun again, but she soon realized that that was impossible.

In the case of Lobelia, she was able to corrupt the magic power itself that Lobelia possessed by using the spirit imbued with her black magic that she had already summoned.

Therefore, she tried to channel the black magic that was encroaching on Lobelia towards Leticia and contaminate her magic, but for some reason, it was impossible even with her cyanic abilities.

‘It’s a shame. In that case, we have no choice but to take the next best option.’

Xian decided to take the next best option and destroy the magic circuit itself within Leticia’s body.

The magic circuit is an important organ that allows the magic power itself to flow when wizards use magic.

If the magic circuit does not exist, it becomes impossible for wizards to use magic even if magic power exists.

In human terms, even if the brain is healthy, if the nerves that transmit commands from the brain to various parts of the body are damaged, it can be said to be similar to not being able to move the body properly.

Originally, it would have been impossible to interfere with another person’s body itself from a distance using the ability of cyanide… Since Xian’s abilities were currently amplified, such a thing was barely possible.

In addition, rather than simply relying on abilities, Cyan directly poured mana into Leticia’s body, contributing to the destruction of her body from the outside as well.

After struggling for a while, Sian succeeded in using the connection between himself and Leticia to completely mess up the flow of the magic circuit that existed in her body and twist it around.

It would be possible to generate her magic power and move it according to her own will, but if she were to let that magic power run through her circuits, she would probably feel pain as if her whole body were being torn apart. Will attack.

Considering the fact that most wizards have lower physical strength than ordinary people, and that Leticia also falls into that category, it would be impossible for her to cast her magic while enduring the pain.

‘I’m a little dissatisfied with the middle process, but… Anyway, I guess this is a conclusion of its own.’

If possible, I wanted to crush the traitors with my own hands without relying on my abilities, but it would be quite ridiculous not to use my abilities, so I ended up doing it.

Lobelia, who wanted to be on top of anyone else in the world, is now at the lowest place in the world and is forced to hide like a rat.

Leticia, who tried to sacrifice me to satisfy her own desires and fulfill her own wishes, ended up unable to use the magic that was all she had.

And when it comes to Ellie… I think living itself is painful.

Because, unlike Lobelia and Leticia, Ellie felt guilty toward me, and that guilt will always act as a heavy burden for Ellie.

Her conscience, which Ellie had, was certain that the longer she lived, the deeper and heavier she would make her sins.

The more Ellie thinks about having fun in her life, and the more happy she feels, the more pain she will feel.

“… This is truly unbelievable. When she heard Lobelia’s words, she only thought that she had the ability to enhance the talents of others, but in reality, she did not just strengthen her talents, but had the ability to destroy others by interfering with her body itself. Was it an ability?”

And suddenly, someone’s voice is heard from behind Xian, muttering in a truly absurd tone.

When I turned my head, there was the figure of the warlock, Kyreion, sitting on the floor with one knee down.

Cyreion’s blood was flowing all over his body, and one of his arms had long since disappeared without a trace.

In contrast, Cartesia, who was holding a sword to Kyreion’s neck, only had minor scratches on her body and showed no signs of serious injuries.

The confrontation between Cyreion and Cartesia ended in Cartesia’s landslide victory, just as she had rantted beforehand.

“… This is absurd. Even though I have been avoiding the pursuit of the Empire’s hunting dogs for half a century and have never been defeated in battle, I can’t believe I was defeated by a girl who has just become an adult.”

However, even though she was defeated by Cartesia, Kyreion did not show any signs of upset.

No, rather, the current Kyreion was only expressing the feeling of ‘absurdity.’

That would be natural. As he is the one who has lived the longest among the warlocks and is close to the leader, he probably did not even consider the possibility that he, who possessed great power, would be defeated.

“That’s natural. Do you know how much preparation and research I put into preparing for this moment when I would catch you and kill you? Besides, I have fought with you dozens of times, and if I can’t beat you at this point, then I really have to go out and die.”

Cartesia grumbled in her low voice, but of course Cyreion could not even understand half of what she was saying.

“… Tsk, I lent my power to that b*tch Lobelia under the belief that if I could get my hands on that guy named Xian, I would have the chance to overthrow the empire, but I was too hasty. “If I had known that this guy’s ability wasn’t just the ability to enhance other people’s talents, I never would have come forward like this.”

As he said that, Kyreion looked at Cartesia blankly.

It seemed like he had something he wanted to say to Cartesia.

“I was defeated by you. “By nature, the loser has nothing to say to the winner, but now that things have come to this point, I can’t help but say something.”

“… “What kind of bullsh*t are you trying to say now?”

Despite her Cartesia’s rebuke, Cyreion perseveres and opens her mouth towards her.

“Princess of the Empire. Can you trust that guy named Xian? No, can you trust that man’s abilities? Can you entrust everything to that man? “I think absolutely not.”

Kirerion’s eyes focus on Lobelia and Leticia lying around on the other side.

According to Lobelia and Leticia’s extremely miserable words, for Kyreion, it was something that could never be said to be someone else’s business.

Because Cyreion also planned to kidnap Xian and threaten him into strengthening his talents if Cartesia had not invaded.

In other words, the sight of those women losing everything they had, becoming losers and squirming like insects, may have been the image of the future that Kyreion faced.

That’s what it meant to accept Xian’s abilities and strengthen his own talents.

Not only his right to life and death, but also his human dignity and his own bright future are mortgaged to Xian, an extremely heinous slave contract itself.

No, depending on your perspective, it may be something even more vicious than a slave contract.

“Looking at you two, it looks like you two are more than just friends but have feelings of affection… “You princess, one day, you will regret ever knowing that man.”

Kyreion grins and looks at the faces of Cian and Cartesia, whose expressions have darkened for some reason.

“If that man decides to do that, princess, you will quickly end up like those girls lying around over there. In other words, you are mortgaging your life to that man. “One side can kill or dispose of the other at any time, but the other side has to rely on the other’s mercy and whims and fall victim to it. Is there such an unfair relationship in the world?”

“You, princess, think that you will further revive the empire through that guy’s abilities… That is a very dangerous ability. Even if I got my hands on that man, I am not confident that I can completely control everything about him. How on earth do you, princess, have confidence and trust in that man?”

Kyreion did not say such things to drive a wedge between Xian and Cartesia or to cause internal strife.

He watched the scene where Cyan dealt with Leticia and Lobelia just now, and truly decided that he was dangerous.

If I had known from the beginning that Xian’s ability was that kind of ability, I would never have dreamed of kidnapping him, even if it meant assassinating him in the worst case.

“Can I always trust that man? Can you rely on and trust without a single doubt? As a loser, I would like to give sincere advice to the winner, but for the sake of the empire, it would be better to kill that man right here and there.”

“… “Hmm.”

However, Cartesia made a displeased expression upon hearing Cyrion’s words, and then she quickly became embarrassed and sneered.

“Well, I completely understand what you want to say. “Then there is only one path for me to choose from here.”

“… As expected, she is the princess of the empire. As an archenemy who defeated me head-on, he knows what is more important-“

“My choice… “It’s no big deal.”

Without a word, Cartesia reached out her hand and forced Cyreion’s mouth open and pulled out his tongue.

Boo!

“Kaaak!”

“I’m going to pull out your tongue, which deceives me by saying such nonsense. I’ve been wanting to break your snout and rip out your tongue for a long time… “

After Kyreion threw his tongue on the floor as if he were throwing away trash, Cartesia whispered to him in a very quiet voice.

“The experience of being deceived by your bullsh*t and turning my back on Sian… “Just once is enough.”

Kwasik!

Saying that, Cartesia raised her foot and trampled on Cyreion’s tongue, bursting it.

As if I were declaring that I don’t want to listen to him again.
