Magical Genius With Quantum Magic - Chapter 175



Living Hell

Zeke did not leave Veritas in the end.

Although he had decided to give up his position as a hero, it seemed that he did not want to give up even fighting for mankind while continuing to learn magic under Leon.

Then, he wonders what is the point of giving up his position as a warrior, but Zeke said that he would not fight for humanity, but protect humanity so that he would never lose his comrades again.

“Well, everyone is like that.”

Somehow, as soon as he sighed a sigh of relief that he could only relax now, he received a call from the Farostel magic family.

It seemed that Levis Parostel, who was third in the succession line, was finally seated as the head of the Parostel magic family.

“I hope so, but really……”

This is the first case of a woman becoming the head of an aristocratic family.

In the first place, Gaju disappeared and did not return, and the first and second place in the succession line lost their lives in a battle with Leon.

The 3rd to 5th place were young children, and the 6th place died in an accident.

The right of succession fell to the palm of Lloyd Parostel, who is in the 7th rank, but he said that he was satisfied with his current position and gave up the seat of Caju to Levis Parostel, the 3rd in the succession.

I don’t know for sure, but it is said that the unexpected accident that happened to the 6th in the succession line may have been someone’s mastermind, but it was very likely that Levis Farostel had done something to devour the Farostel magic family.

Besides, Lloyd, who is ranked 7th, had always been very afraid of Levis, and he was very good at figuring out his own fraction, so he must have noticed that if he took the seat on his own, he would definitely get sick.

And in that way, Levis Farostel sat in the seat of the new tower owner of the Flame magic tower.

And Levis,

“You’re going to bring the entire Flame magic tower under Veritas’ control?”

Levis Farostel had sent a preface to Leon stating that he would dedicate the entire Farostel Magical Family and the Fire magic tower to Veritas.

– Because that’s the best revenge I can get on my dead father.

The now prosperous Parostel Magical Family and the Flame magic tower are, as it were, the only legacy that Melite Flare Farostel left on this world.

By dedicating it to Leon, Levis Farostel achieved the greatest possible revenge she could have.

Leon looked at the letter and smiled faintly.

“It must have been a difficult choice.”

As a woman, she eventually became the owner of a noble family by all means and methods.

From now on, she could have enjoyed what she had to enjoy and dreamed of a peaceful life, but she gave up on everything and achieved revenge for her father who had already died.

If the Philo Empire had been the same country as before, such a thing would not have worked.

However, the fact that a woman could become the owner of an aristocratic family or a magic tower is a signal that the Philo Empire has begun to change.

After Ailee was kidnapped by the Demon King of Destruction and feeling skeptical about his position as king, Fairn was making an innovative move to fundamentally change the system of the country.

First, they made it mandatory to install a tower of truth on the borders of the Philo Empire, arming the borders with magic cannons, and gradually expanding the area, living life so that ordinary people could enjoy the blessings of magic and artifacts just like the magic kingdom Veritas. Convenience was changing.

It also looked as if the Philo Empire was being invaded by culture in Veritas Kingdom from a different point of view.

Of course, some nobles and the elders of Matoap, who had a bad feeling for Veritas, expressed their fierce objections, but Emperor Fairn’s will was firm.

Long traditions and customs are important, but once the state fails to function as a state, the Philo Empire has no future.

And he called Leon and said,

“I am planning to step down from my position as emperor soon.”

“Why are you saying that to me…?”

“Jim is already too old. It means that this weak old man is starting to think that it is not enough to build the country he wants. And it’s because I thought you were the only person fit to build the country I wanted. It means that I want to hand over the throne to you.”

Leon was perplexed.

Are you going to hand over the throne to yourself all of a sudden?

In fact, for Leon, the current kingship is burdensome.

It wasn’t the position I wanted to take on.

But the king

“It’s too much for me. Please, take your word.”

“If you have no intention of accepting the throne, I intend to step down from the throne on my own without choosing a successor. But if that happens, the Philo Empire will be engulfed in great chaos. You may be embroiled in infighting by those who claim to rise to the throne on their own.”

“Whoa.”

Leon gave a slightly nervous expression.

It was because he could clearly see the intention of Fayrne’s mastery towards Leon.

“You don’t have to threaten me like that.”

No matter how much Leon hates the Philo Empire, it must be calculated that if this nation falls into a crisis, Leon will not be able to stand still.

At first, it was quite an overestimate for the fact that Leon was a person who could not be trusted.

“At the beginning, the Veritas Kingdom is a kingdom in name only, and it is a country that follows a democratic system. It is impossible for me to become the emperor of the Philo Empire ruled by the royal family and nobles.”

“okay. it was A democratic society, a society in which the people are the masters of the state, is a dream-like story. In fact, Veritas is operated in such a way that you, the king, inspect and grant permission in response to the petitions of the people, right? I hope the Philo Empire will be like that.”

“that······.”

It is literally a revolution.

And to realize it, a revolutionary movement is absolutely necessary.

There is no way the existing royalty and nobility would support the democratic system in which all citizens are equal.

In order to achieve that, forceful action is absolutely necessary.

However, the force of the Philo Empire is not tightly held by the nobles.

The commoners were afraid of being suspected as a reactionary force even when they were engaged in dungeon raiding, so the unit of force was limited to staying at the level of a party, that is, a social gathering.

Naturally, commoners can never lead the nobles by force.

However, since Veritas was a country created with a democratic system from the moment the country was first created, there was no need to suffer such a measles, and the military power of Veritas has long surpassed that of the Philo Empire.

So that is,

“With the power of the titans and wizards you lead, wouldn’t it be easy to suppress the opposition of the nobles?”

suffered

Emperor Feyrn said that the repercussions towards the Kingdom of Veritas within the Philo Empire were strong and that the marriage to Princess Ailee should be hastened in order to suppress it, but in fact, it was a feat to speed up this plan.

He tried to change the Philo Empire from the ground up by tying Leon and Ailee together to secure legitimacy to succeed to the throne of the Philo Empire, and suppress the opposition of the nobles with the military power of the Veritas Kingdom.

“But why all of a sudden…”

In this feudalist society, Emperor Fairn was a holy king who properly ruled the people while demonstrating his abilities quite plausibly.

Then he suddenly gave up on feudalism and risked infighting for the realization of a democratic society?

Leon couldn’t understand it at all.

If you look at the history of the earth alone, democratization has usually been achieved by the masses and a greater number of citizens working together to challenge the authorities, but rarely by the authority of the authorities.

“Jim, no, I have been watching carefully the process of creating and growing a nation independent from the Philo Empire. A changing world where you can enjoy a more developed civilization without sacrificing anyone. When the Demon King of Destruction attacked the Imperial Capital of the Philo Empire, the powerful bowed down. The knights and wizards who followed them united to protect the few in power, and as a result, many citizens were harmed, and Ailee was kidnapped. However, if that power was not limited by someone’s hand and everyone could enjoy it equally, then surely the Demon Lord of Destruction could not simply kidnap Ailee. With that incident, I just felt that the Philo Empire needed to change.”

At that time, Emperor Fairn experienced a terrible sense of helplessness.

In a country that went beyond the kingdom and became an empire, he tasted the sense of helplessness that he could not do anything even though he was sitting in the seat of the highest authority.

In fact, he told Leon that he would do anything to save Ailee.

Then his words were sincere.

Even if Leon demanded the entire Philo Empire, Emperor Fairn would have handed over the Empire without any hesitation.

As a result of repeated contemplation after that, we have come to the conclusion that the Philo Empire must change fundamentally so that such a thing does not happen again.

A state in which all citizens can equally receive the knowledge of magic and develop its possibilities to the limit.

And Leon is already ready for that.

Arya was gaining attention as a powerful next-generation heir, demonstrating her influence within the Rosbane mage family, and by marrying Leon, the forces supporting Arya Rosbane in the Water Tower were increasing.

In addition, Lily Tempest and Anna Forrest, the pupils who were the earliest to receive quantum magic from Leon in the past, form five circles, with magical powers exceeding the eighth circle and demonstrating magic in a realm that other wizards could not even dream of. Jura moved closer to the position.

In fact, the four towers, the highest armed group of the Philo Empire, all came under Leon’s control.

If Emperor Fairn directly supported Leon and Leon expressed his intention to succeed, it was difficult for even nobles with a large army to reject Leon’s will.

Of course, there can be no blood at all.

Even if there is an overwhelming difference in power, there will definitely be forces who don’t realize it, pretend they don’t know it, pretend they don’t know it, pretend they are crazy, let their emotions flow and lose their reason and raise their swords and staffs to resist.

And if someone sheds blood in the process, Leon will be responsible for that.

So, even as Leon, he couldn’t nod his head lightly.

Leon withheld his answer by asking for some time to think, and left the castle and walked down the street.

And I looked closely at the reality of this world that I knew and pretended not to know.

Numerous slaves were dragged and whipped by their masters with chains on them, and even their parents were dragged to death by knights because a young girl, who had been running blindly, rubbed the collar of a nobleman, was unfolding nakedly.

“Do you know how valuable this fabric is? It means that lowly things like you are expensive things that cannot be obtained even after a lifetime of work! But didn’t the clothes get dirty? Profit!”

Citizens murmured at the sight, but pretended not to see it even though they were afraid that the sparks would hit them as well.

No, that is really the daily life of this world.

Leon approached the bloody girl and grabbed the staff wielded by the nobleman.

“Who are you? Did you come out to know who I am?”

Leon looked at the insignia hanging on his chest.

“If you are the head of the Baron Grandel family, are you Mephis Grandel?”

At Leon’s attitude like that, he said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“Yeah, yes. He is my father. What the hell are you doing?”

Leon let out a laugh.

How can the son of a noble family, who is not the nobleman himself, and who has not yet inherited the title, be so pathetic?

Nausea came out.

But it was Leon who knew better than anyone that it was the reality of this world.

And only Leon could change that reality.

“My name is Leon Farostel Veritas.”

At those words, the nobleman’s eyes widened.

Even though he didn’t know Leon’s face, he couldn’t even recognize his name.

The best archmage in the world.

The Demon King of Veritas Kingdom.

He is the only god of God directly recognized by the Seven Gods, and the absolute ruler of this era who subjugated the four demon kings.

When the nobleman turned his gaze away as if asking for the truth, the vassal who was serving as his assistant was the first to fall flat on the floor with his face turned blue.

“I’m sorry that I didn’t dare to see you. The master was still ignorant of the world, and he was disrespectful to His Majesty the Demon King. Please forgive me with great generosity!”

The noble son of the nobleman, too, had his face turned blue belatedly, and fell flat upon him.

“Lord, I have sinned to death. Wealth, please forgive me with your generosity!”

Leon looked down at them without any emotion and opened his mouth.

“If you have committed a mortal sin, you must die.”

“yes?”

Leon struck the head of the noble son who raised his head as it was.

The sight of the citizens passing by him, trembling in surprise, came into Leon’s sight.

Yet they dared not even scream.

A status that even the nobles could not dare to do.

Most of them didn’t even know who Leon was, but they must have been such a great person that they couldn’t even look up to him.

However, no one could blame Leon, even though he killed a man in the middle of the road while everyone was watching.

Even though there are guards just nearby, they stand with their backs to Leon and only bite people so as not to aggravate the chaos.

This is never a place for people to live.

It was a living hell itself, a living hell where living people lived.

Leon’s fingertips, looking at the living hell, were dripping with the blood of a girl transferred from the staff of the noble son.

Looking down at that hand, Leon fell into skepticism.

Leon knew it too.

The fact that this happens frequently in this world.

Even though I knew it clearly, I just pretended not to know, saying it was something I couldn’t do anything about.

But is it really?

What can Leon really do?

not.

Now Leon has the power to change this world.

Even if there was some blood flowing in the process of that change, at least it was nothing more than hemostasis of the foot compared to the blood and sacrifice that would still flow on this earth without knowing it.

Leon healed the girl and her family, and moved back to the Imperial Castle.
