Magical Genius With Quantum Magic - Chapter 163
Resurrection of the Dead
Leon, who finally brought his mother to the Demon Kingdom, wanted to introduce people who are dear to him right now.
In fact, it is still very late.
How about introducing that person to your mother after you’ve already made an engagement?
Even if it had to be done for political reasons, that would not be an excuse.
Of course, the mother would already know who Leon was engaged to.
However, as a person to person, it was very important for Leon to introduce the person who is dear to him to the person who is more important to him than anyone else.
But I haven’t been able to introduce them to my mother yet.
Because there are four people Leon wants to introduce to her mother, and one of them is missing.
Leon left his mother at the Imperial Palace and headed to the Philo Empire.
Usually, it was a very cumbersome procedure for the king of one country to visit another, but Leon was daring.
He opened the portal without an escort and moved directly to the front gate of the Imperial Palace, the capital of the Philo Empire.
“Mmm, stop! Reveal your identity and tell me your business!”
The guards were startled by the sudden phenomenon and aimed their swords and staffs at Leon.
“The King of the Demon Kingdom Veritas. This is Leon Farostel Veritas.”
At Leon’s introduction, they couldn’t help but panic.
When the king of another country visits, news about him has been prepared several months in advance, and a grand welcome ceremony is held on the street to welcome their visit, leaving the gates wide open.
Normally, the guards in the status of ordinary soldiers would not welcome the king of another country.
Above all else, King Leon Farostel Veritas was unofficially the greatest wizard in the world.
Rumor has it that, with a light gesture, it will not only destroy a city, but also destroy the sky, leap through space, and freely wield the power of the sun, lightning, and gods.
Among the seven demon kings, he has officially succeeded in subjugating the demon king of the unknown, fear, and destruction, and in a nutshell, he is more fearful than the demon king.
Even though the opponent was an ally, from the point of view of a guard who had to protect the castle from enemy attacks, there was no visitor more fearful than this.
After a moment’s hesitation, they saluted with the utmost sincerity.
“Welcome to the Philo Empire. By the way, what is the purpose of your visit to your home country…?”
“I came to meet my fiancee, Princess Ailee.”
The guard was then able to remember that Leon Farostel Veritas was Princess Ailee’s fiancée.
Leon’s reputation as a ‘magic’ was so high that he forgot that he was the fiance of the royal family for a while.
Leon shook his head lightly and continued.
“I know it is rude to visit like this without a message, but I heard that Princess Ailee’s condition is critical, so I came here in such a hurry.”
At Leon’s response, the guards were startled and bowed their heads as they waved their hands.
“No, no. The Princess will also be delighted with the visit of His Majesty the Magic King of Leon. Please wait a moment. I will send a message to your Majesty the Emperor immediately.”
At the answer of one guard, perhaps the most senior soldier, I could immediately feel the presence of dozens of soldiers scattered throughout the Imperial Castle.
Even considering the comrades, two or four would have been enough to include a message, but the guard reported Leon’s visit to the Guards Division and the Guards Division just in case.
Of course, that was an act of fulfilling my duty as a guard.
And soon, familiar faces appeared in Leon as well.
They were Randall Prescott, commander of the Guards Division of the Philo Empire, and Rebecca Meredith, the commander of the Guards Division.
I met them 5 years ago and it was the first time since then.
And they, too, have become different from what they were five years ago.
When they first met, they were learning the martial arts of the 11 stars and the magic of the 7 circles, but eventually they succeeded in achieving the status of the 12 stars and the 8 circles, which is called the limit of human beings.
However, even when they faced Leon, they could not approach him recklessly.
‘This is truly….’
‘Is this a state that can be achieved by humans?’
It was only now that he had risen to the ranks of the empire, but the original Philo Kingdom was not a good environment for talented people to achieve their status.
As with various customs, the fact that the land is narrow in the first place means that the occurrence of dungeons is less that much, and the elixir, which is usually a great help in the training of aurora or magical power, is given as a reward by the heavenly gods when attacking the dungeon. because there were many
In addition, the elixir thus obtained is purchased at a high price by the state and presented as a tribute to the powerful empire.
When the Philo Empire was still a kingdom, it was in a position to pay tribute to other countries, so the existence of an elixir that had a great influence on the achievement of Aurors and magical powers was very rare.
Unlike the magic tower and the magic family, who obtained the elixir with their own financial resources, Randall and Rebecca were not in a position to easily obtain the elixir because they were in a position to pay patriotism and loyalty to the country with a relatively low wage.
Randall Prescott and Rebecca Meredith were geniuses among geniuses who achieved their own heights in such a harsh environment.
That is why Leon could feel it without having to show his momentum.
The immense amount of magical energy that floated above Leon’s head, and the presence of a magical wave that no one could touch.
‘Even when I saw him five years ago, I thought he was a boy with infinite potential.’
‘How can you achieve this kind of growth in just 5 years!’
Originally, they were supposed to surround Leon in the name of escort and start siege and surveillance, but they realized it at once.
How meaningless it is to be wary of Leon.
If Leon had the will to do that, they couldn’t even stand here safely like this.Read at noblemtl.com
Just by eating a bad heart, you will be overpowered by that magical wave and will not be able to resist properly.
Even though Leon didn’t do anything, they couldn’t move a single toe right now.
In response to Randall and Rebecca’s reaction, the tension between the guards and the guards who followed them continued to increase.
Rather, it was because they could not understand Randall and Rebecca’s reaction at all.
In the end, it was Rebecca who overcame Leon’s presence and took the first step.
With trembling steps, she barely came to Leon’s front, knelt down on one knee and bowed her head.
“Before meeting the king of a country, as a wizard, I pay homage to the great wizard.”
At that, Randall barely walked away, came to Rebecca’s side, and knelt down.
“Thank you for washing away the stigma of failing to protect Princess Ailee and saving her safely as the commander of the Guards Division protecting the imperial family.”
And Rebecca continued.
“Thank you so much for visiting for my disciple today.”
Leon was then able to remember that Rebecca was the original source of fusion magic that Ailee was dealing with.
Ailee was known as a member of the Imperial Family and at the same time as the chief disciple of the commander of the Guards Law Division.
Rebecca Meredith is a master of fusion magic and an excellent wizard with a reputation for Elemental Mastery.
She must have been as worried about Ailee’s well-being as Leon, or even more than Leon, as the years they had spent together had been longer.
“Now, raise your head and stand up. The reason I came here today is to check on Ailee noona’s condition. If it is known to Ailee that I have kneeled down on someone important to me, I will be scolded by my sister.”
When Leon directly grabbed Rebecca’s arm and got him up, Rebecca was a little embarrassed, but then laughed involuntarily.
“The greatest wizard in the world, and even though you have become the king of a country, you still call Ailee my sister.”
“The titles I hold can change where I stand, but they cannot change who I am.”
Rebecca couldn’t help but be a little surprised at those words.
Leon is talking to her.
The man in front of you that you are dating has not changed in the slightest from the boy you saw five years ago.Read at noblemtl.com
Just like back then, he felt comfortable being treated like a boy.
It sounds obvious, but it is not easy.
As the saying goes that a place makes a person, people tend to change easily.
The phrase was often used in the positive sense that sitting in a high position would make you fit for the position, but Rebecca didn’t think it had only a positive meaning.
Those who have tasted power are easily corrupted.
He wants to show off his power to people by shivering with more and more authority.
What if it were the most powerful magic in the world?
What if the position of the most powerful king in a country?
I don’t know if it was the king from the beginning, but if it is a person who has climbed from the attic to the top of the royal castle, even if you don’t want to change, you will have to change a little.
But now, Rebecca’s gaze reflected the image of a cute boy who was averted by his mischievous smile from a grown man.
As he said, Leon had not changed at all.
Rebecca recalled the memory of putting a medal on Leon’s chest five years ago, and said sarcastically.
“Then can I visit you sooner or later and brush off your bottom line?”
It was Leon, who said that he would be careful not to lose the bottom line when Rebecca said that they should discuss magic with each other someday.
Leon responded with a smile at that.
“Isn’t it going to be easy now?”
In the midst of such a conversation, the soldier who had gone to preach the message returned.
“Your Majesty your Majesty has permitted the audience of His Majesty the Magic King of Leon.”
* * *
Leon was guided directly by Randall Prescott and Rebecca Meredith to Ailee’s bedroom.
The emperor is waiting there.
Ailee was sleeping a little bit on the elegantly decorated ornate bed.
Beside him, Emperor Fairn, who bowed his head, looked at the floor without a word, as if he had not noticed Leon’s visit.
From the outside, it looked like he was just sleeping peacefully, but Leon knew it.
Ailee’s soul was destroyed.
Simple physical torture does not do this.
Perhaps it was torture using magic or power.
The most suspicious is the power of nightmares.
The power that penetrates deep into the human unconscious and stimulates the human mind.
“Ah, you are here. King Leon.”
Leon lowered his head and said.
“I am not used to the title of king yet. Please feel free to speak as you normally would.”
“If you’re going to do that, Jim will be more comfortable. Did you come to check on Ailee’s illness?”
Leon nodded and approached Ailee.
The condition is more serious than expected.
If it was the power of the nightmare that destroyed Ailee’s soul, Leon wondered if it would be possible to restore Ailee’s soul to its original form with his own powers.
It was because Leon was also able to deal with the power of nightmares by accepting the soul of the second prince of Philo Kingdom, Beatson, who became a demon.
But like everything in the world, it is easy to destroy, but difficult to restore.
Ailee’s soul, already exhausted to the point of being exhausted, no longer has the ability to understand external stimuli.
No matter how positive Leon’s fantasies and dreams are, it can’t be anything more, nothing less, just a stimulus that means nothing to her anymore.
“How are you? Can Ailee get better? You are now recognized as the best wizard in the world. Couldn’t your magic cure Ailee’s condition?”
Leon didn’t answer.
But that was already the most obvious answer above all else.
“Is that so, hopeless?”
Leon thought for a long time before answering.
“It’s not that there isn’t a way.”
“You mean there is a way?”
“But it’s not the normal way.”
“But even so, as long as she can smile again, if she can make me smile, I can do anything! tell me what do you want wealth? power? Or the seat of this emperor? I will give you anything you want!”
Emperor Fairn was truly desperate.
But Leon shook his head.
“You don’t need them all. To the emperor, she is as precious to me as her older sister. It’s not physical that she’s hurt, you just need to touch her soul to heal her.”
The method is simple.
As Dice’s deity who remembers Ailee’s soul, the magic wave that the soul emits, and its shape, it returns it to its original form.
And so that the form does not crumble again, she is made a saint of Leon and is maintained in that form with the power of God and a blessing.
However, there is a problem here.
Ailee’s soul is already dead.
In the past, Leon had declared to Melit Flare Parostel, who became a demon, that he was already dead.
Even if we have the same memories and the same experiences, if the shape of the soul changes, it is already like a completely different person.
Then, if only the form of the soul is exactly the same, is it the same person?
To summarize, what Leon was trying to do was as follows.
“I will create a spirit that has the exact same soul shape as Ailee’s sister and dwell in her.”
“Jeong, spirit…?”
An artificial intelligence that perfectly shares Ailee’s memories, experiences, and soul form.
Install it on her body.
In other words, it was a kind of necromancy.
It was the complete resurrection of the dead.
