Magical Genius With Quantum Magic - Chapter 162
bridle
“Are you the king of a country? Our Leon?”
After the mother woke up in the Demon Castle, Leon ordered wizards to clean up the surroundings so that she could get enough rest.
Then one day, the mother, who had doubts about the existence of wizards whose number was difficult to count, seemed to ask the maids who served her.
What kind of grateful person supported Leon with so many wizards?
To that, the maid politely replied that all these wizards were people who served Leon.
“Yes. A lot happened while my mother was away. Now, even my mother is not a queen.”
“My, are you saying that I am royalty?”
“It’s not just royalty. She is the mother of the current king, and in fact, she is the highest in the country.”
“How dare I… I was just born as a poor and fortunate enough to manage a nobleman’s villa.”
Leon smiled bitterly at that.
Could it have been an event that could be said to have been lucky?
The villa my mother was talking about is a villa operated by the Farostel magic family in the royal capital.
He avoids mentioning it directly, but in the end he is saying that he was lucky to meet Leon’s biological father, Melit Flair Farostel, and about Leon’s birth.
Riel is one of the few people who know that the true identity of the Demon Lord of Destruction was Melite Flare Farostel.
Thanks to meeting him, Leon was born, and as a poor man, he became a concubine of a nobleman and managed a villa, but in the end, he was kidnapped by the demon king and almost died because of that.
It felt awkward to say I was lucky with it.
“mother. There are no ordinary people in this country I have created.”
“···Oh.”
“There is no distinction between commoners and aristocrats, and the only thing that exists is the people who are all equal. So there is no need for a mother to humble herself like that.”
Of course, from that point of view, there was no royal family, but there were areas that Leon’s power could not reach.
Most of the people belonging to the Demon Kingdom Veritas are related to magic.
It is the people of this country who belonged to Veritas, the Tower of Truth, and became sorcerers, or the families of those who became wizards, or those who had a direct or indirect relationship with him.
And the one who achieved the greatest achievement in history was an archmage named Leon.
Leon expressed that there were no ordinary people, no commoners, even nobility or royalty in this country, but the feelings the people had for Leon were more than faith.
Of course, the worship of Leon and those who inherited his blood cannot be stopped.
Think about it.
If there is a god you worship, and one day that god brings someone who is the mother who gave birth to you, wouldn’t the feeling of adoration be nurtured even if that person was an ordinary woman?
Even if there was no direct relationship with magic, the people of Veritas, the magical kingdom, were enjoying the blessings of magical powers every day and living a dreamlike life.
If there was even a slight sense of gratitude, respect for the royal family who created this nation was not an emotion that could only be blocked.
And it became clear when he finally returned to the Demon Kingdom Veritas.
When he opened the portal and returned with a large army of 300,000, all the people took to the streets and, without anyone’s permission, held a grand triumphal ceremony and welcomed Leon and his mother with enthusiastic cheers.
Long live the Demon King!
Long live Mama, Empress Dowager!
The fact that Leon’s mother Riel was kidnapped by the Demon King of Destruction was not widely known, but Veritas’ closest aides, who possessed the radio artifact, reported that Leon had safely recovered his mother from the Demon King. would have gone out
Most importantly, if there was one drawback of Veritas, the most livable magic kingdom in the world, it was that it had a dangerous location adjacent to the Demon Kingdom, but this time, as Leon took over the capital of the Demon Kingdom of Moros, even that weakness disappeared.
With Leon, there is nothing to fear.
It was natural for the people to hope that Leon would enjoy peace and quiet for as long as possible.
The heartfelt congratulations and cheers of the people were more splendid and grandiose than any other triumphal ceremony, and magic gunfire resounded nonstop in the sky.
Leon took his mother to the annex of the royal castle, receiving sincere congratulations from the people.
Even though it was an annex, the royal castle was originally built as a building close to its original nature so that the mother could rest comfortably because it was using the tower of truth used by wizards as a public good.
“It’s a place where my mother will live in the future. This building was built with the intention of accommodating my mother from the beginning, so please let me know if there is anything lacking.”
“Is this my house……?”
Riel raised his head with an expression that he did not understand the English language.
It was built with a magic tower as the base, so it was high enough to not see the top no matter how high you looked, and it was a huge castle.
As a woman who managed the villa of the Philo Empire, she had experienced the emperor’s residence several times, and it was a more splendid and gigantic castle than the imperial castle she had seen at that time.
However, if there is a difference, is it only that the surrounding area is not blocked by a fortress wall?
There was just a beautiful and neat garden spread out around the castle so that foreigners were reluctant to invade it.
Of course, the escorts to protect Riel were scouting all over the garden.
However, Riel’s surprise did not end with the appearance alone.
The chandelier hanging from the high ceiling was scattering warm and soft light by the magic stone, and a moderately comfortable temperature and fresh air greeted her.
The floor is warm.
A cool breeze blows from the ceiling.
Not only that, but the entire castle was decorated with so many artifacts that it was hard to count them all.
For a brief moment, she also lived in Veritas, a tower of truth built in the capital of the Philo Empire.
But at that time, I was only grateful to think that it was a tower that the emperor had built for Leon.
But this is different.
Riel was simply overwhelmed by the presence of a castle that was more splendid and more magnificent than the tower built just for himself.
“Leon. No matter how I think about it, it seems too much for me.”
Seeing her mother like that, Leon smiled bitterly.
Of course, I expected this kind of reaction, but I felt sad because it was so unexpected.
My mother was always like this.
When he lived in the attic, he suffered from pneumonia and coughed, but gave up even turning on a heater for Leon and turned on Ma Gwang-gu.
Even when Leon was finally recognized by his family and his mother was inaugurated as the custodian of the villa, he did not ask for anything except for the butler’s compulsion, and he did not stop bowing deeply and bowing down to the servants working under him.
Cheonmin was born.
Her mother had never forgotten her origins.
To put it bluntly, it’s modest, but Leon always felt sorry for his mother.
“Isn’t your mother proud of me?”
“What? It can’t be!”
“Why does your mother think that I am the king of a country?”
“that······.”
“I was not interested in the position of a king. If I could just spend a peaceful life with my mother, I was satisfied with that. But the world didn’t allow me to do that, so I thought I had no choice but to create it myself.”
“Leon….”
Leon took a small breath and confided the words inside.
“I once thought that my birth was so low that I didn’t have any magical talents.”
At that, Riel made a face that he couldn’t understand.
That’s right.
In this world, Leon learned magic at the age of 8, and since then, he has climbed up to where he is today without stopping.
However, even though she could not understand Leon’s words, she also understood Leon’s words.
Because she hadn’t thought about it at all.
Riel forced Leon to use magic from an early age.
You have to learn magic to live.
While passing those words to Leon as if eating three meals a day, he doubted whether Leon, who inherited his own blood, could truly awaken magic.
“But now that I look back, I see. It’s nothing like birth. The problem was not in the birth, but in the methodology. As long as people are born as human beings, everyone is equal and equally special. Look around you, mother.”
Riel looked around as Leon had said.
It was full of wizards to escort Leon and Riel.
They were proud wizards with skills and presence that did not bow down no matter where they were put on the continent.
“These too were once humble people, slaves, a half-demon and a sub-race who were discriminated against by others. But now no wizard can ignore them. Because they are all special as long as they are born as human beings. I let them know that they are special, and they can be the great wizards they are today.”
Leon, who looked around, immediately looked at Riel.
“And my mother is special too. Of course, I am well aware that my mother was bound by the cycle of birth called Cheonmin. But now it’s my mother’s turn. Realize that your mother is also special. My mother is more special to me than anything else in the world, and I want to do anything for her. But if my mother bridles herself by saying that she is full of resentment, I do not deserve to be the king of this country.”
A country where the poor do not exist and everyone is equal.
If the mother of the country, the Empress Dowager, cannot enjoy luxury because she is a poor person, what is the significance of this country?
Riel was just speechless at Leon’s words.
tell her like that
“mother. Half of my mother’s blood runs through my body. Does that blood make me humble?”
“···no. not. How can my proud son be humble?”
“Then, is your mother a lowly person?”
It was a little late for an answer, but my mother finally shook her head and opened her mouth.
“As the mother of my proud son, I must not be humble.”
There were soft tears in the corners of the mother’s eyes who answered that way, but there was a smile on her lips that was bigger than those tears.
“Then it’s your turn to get rid of that bridle. mother.”
Leon opened his arms and gently held her in his arms, and Riel took her into his arms and spoke again.
“You are all grown up now. our son.”
And Riel, who escaped from Leon’s arms, had a somewhat more relaxed expression on his face.
