I Became the Dark Wizard Who Rules Over the Heroines - Chapter 33
33 – Leaf-2
I had been given an important mission, but I couldn’t think of a good move.
‘This event… I know where it happens, but I don’t know how to find out.’
In the end, it is a world in a game. The information I could know as a ‘player’ was limited.
‘Still, I remember that this is a trading place…’
In the game, it was an event where colleagues or players completed a certain level of ‘investigation’ and then raided the transaction site.
It wasn’t that difficult to find out where the transactions were taking place. The place where the battle took place was described in quite detail, and as I looked around, I was able to think, ‘This is it.’
However, when I came here without finding clear information, I did not know ‘when’ the transaction took place.
‘Hmm…’
I couldn’t wait too long. I also had to sleep, and the time I could get out of the dorm without being suspicious was also limited.
Although he used magic to hide his presence and body, he cannot remain undercover in this area for the rest of his life.
‘Should I go back soon?’
No strange movements were seen.
Even though it may be a bit difficult, it might be better to interrogate some of the warlocks whose behavior is suspicious and find out how they obtained the drugs.
As I was about to leave, I felt a loud noise coming from afar.
‘…Is it a deal?’
If you think about common sense, the possibility of that happening was not high.
I couldn’t hear exactly what was being said, but I heard loud talking. I don’t know how many people were passing by, but I could also hear quite a few footsteps.
If they were really dealing drugs, they would have moved much more neatly than this.
However, I couldn’t ignore it. I went to where the sound was coming from.
“I’m going to die. Lose in moderation. In moderation.”
“This bastard is looking at us like a dick!”
Four or so cadets were roughly stepping on a student who was lying on the ground.
He didn’t look like a warlock. A knight, or a wizard. Although their achievements are not that outstanding, they are people who use the power of light.
“When it comes to using black magic, you’re a disgusting bastard…”
“You said you’d pay it back! Ugh, the money… whatever you ask for-“
“Do you think I’m doing this for a few f*cking pennies?”
I took a few steps closer and listened to what they said.
“Wow, that doesn’t make sense! I borrowed three gold coins, so how does it turn into six gold coins? I paid back two, so the remaining coins will come soon…”
“It’s a late fee, a late fee! You said you didn’t have any money, so I lent it to you, but…”
The student standing on top was beating the student below without mercy.
‘I think I might have to step up to the plate on this.’
I did not bring a mask. It was a bit of a complacent decision.
There was no need to hide myself when catching drug traffickers, and I thought there was no need to reveal myself otherwise.
‘…Hmm?’
It is the sound of footsteps. If you think about it, they must have been beating this person here for a long time.
The footsteps I heard before arriving here were probably made by people coming in.
“What? The other guys…”
Several warlocks glared at them with stern eyes.
“What is it, Victor? Aren’t you too anxious to have someone watching your back?”
“That’s none of your business. What are you doing with her?”
The atmosphere becomes harsh. They are glaring at each other as if they are going to fight at any moment.
“It’s between us, so why don’t we just go without worrying about it?”
“The friend lying down there is in the same class as me. Will you let him go on his own?”
“Why me?”
“Then take him to death.”
Magical energy is gushing out. The warlocks with him flinched, as if they hadn’t expected him to show his anger like this.
However, the man standing in front of Victor was not afraid at all.
“Take me to death? Me? Hey, I don’t understand the situation right now, but you know who I am, right?”
It was a dark night. Because I couldn’t see clearly, I couldn’t see his face.
“That is that, and this is this. Let me go. Or shall we fight here?”
There was silence for a moment. The atmosphere became tense.
“Well, today isn’t the only day. Hey, go see.”
The man tapped the student who was lying down and sent him towards Victor.
“Uh, uh…”
Perhaps because he was unable to walk properly, the student who had fallen walked towards Victor with unsteady steps.
“Anyway, tell that bastard to pay back the money. f*ck, my pocket money is cut off… The bastard I borrowed from didn’t pay back… Only sh*t happens.”
With those last words, the humans ‘who were hitting’ disappeared into the darkness.
“Victor. We are slowly moving to our location…”
“No, just go today. I have some personal work left to do here.”
“Alone? I don’t know what those damn bastards will do…”
“It has nothing to do with those bastards. If they think it’s dangerous, they’ll get out on their own, so don’t worry and get out. You don’t need to at least apply medicine to the bastard who got hit.”
“Yes…”
It is dark. Considering that they were still cadets, the back of the academy was quite deep and dark.
The bright part was infinitely bright, but this is also a society where people live. There could not be no bullying, violence, and domination.
In the quiet street, Victor was left alone. After standing silently for a while, he quietly opened his mouth.
“Please come out.”
‘…?’
Surprised, I checked my magic.
Perfect. There was no way he could have sensed my presence.
‘…Is it someone else?’
My power was great, but there were clearly limits to what I could do with it.
If the task was to cast a huge spell and subdue the opponent, it was impossible to use minor spells with a high degree of skill.
There was a possibility that he was waiting for someone else and that I did not notice him.
“Let’s talk about it. Come out.”
It was a rather humble tone of voice that did not suit his self-indulgent attitude.
The place where Victor’s eyes were focused was a bit far from where I was, but it seemed pointless to waste any more time.
“Yes.”
“What, from behind… Ha, was that you? Wade.”
“You were the one who called first.”
He let out a deep sigh, as if he was relieved.
“I didn’t know it was you.”
“Then who did you think it was?”
“A damn strong warlock… This includes you too. Or what, a professor?”
I thought he was burning a grudge against me, but surprisingly, I didn’t feel any hostility in his gaze.
“I thought you would hate it.”
“Ha, even though I lived an ignorant life, I have the intelligence of a back alley bastard. If you open your mouth like that and point your claws at me, you’re not thinking before your personality.”

“Hmm…”
There was nothing bad for me either. It was easy and convenient to take down a nameless student like Victor, but it didn’t change the fact that it was annoying.
“How did you know?”
“It’s shaking. That magic that hides your presence can’t hide someone as big as you in the first place. f*ck, I didn’t know at the time… Magi looked like some kind of monster…”
“Aha.”
It got a little loose.
When I was just learning black magic, I used to make every effort to hide the magic energy leaking from the Dark Arrow. At that time, I thought it was better to avoid attention.
But now I have already revealed my power and declared that I am a stronger warlock than Katharine.
“It’s not that I realized that I am a dark magician, but that I discovered the demonic energy created by using magic.”
“Yes.”
The stealth magic I used was made with a structure that seemed to cover the body with a kind of curtain.
Victor may not have realized what was behind it, but he figured out that something incredibly large and enormous was unfolding.
“I need to try harder.”
“By the way… You saw it too, right?”
“Yes.”
“Why did you stay quiet? You’re a warlock too.”
Those who handle demonic energy generally tend to stick together.
They are used to being ostracized, being wary of others, and being jealous.
Of course, they knew that and chose black magic, but even so, it was not easy to endure it all.
“I was aware of the situation.”
“Understand the situation. Yes. Well, that’s possible.”
Victor took a deep breath and trudged towards his accommodation.
“Let’s go. I only noticed that because it was me, but I couldn’t figure it out with the level of security here anyway. I can’t use black magic.”
“I guess so.”
The only people who can feel the magic and the fear that comes with it are the same warlocks.
Those who manipulate the power of light will never be swayed by that fear or feel that fear.
“By the way, is things going well with Claire?”
There is no vigilance. Victor spoke to me casually, as if we were friends.
“We’re not in a relationship like that.”
“Wow, you f*cking bastard. You gave her away like that and took over her, and now you’re abandoning her?”
“That’s because you tried to force it.”
“f*ck, you weren’t wrong. Did I think back then that she would become a dark priest? There were already a few people in our class selling their bodies…”
Meaningless stories continued. As we approached the dormitory, Victor and I silently used the stealth spell.
“…”
As I was returning to my dorm, I fell into deep thought.
We had quite a bit of conversation with him, but neither I nor he asked about the most important thing.
Why were you out in that dark time, in that dark place?
