Only My Magic Levels Up - Chapter 203



Only Noblemtl

Episode 203: Wise Exploration Life (1)

The governor, who had been running around with his feet on fire, quickly gathered the key figures of the Alaba family in one place.

Facing their confused state, Lilia clearly explained the situation.

“… Huh.”

“… What the heck.”

Surprisingly, the uproar wasn’t that big.

To be exact, I should say that I wanted to make a big fuss but couldn’t.

What family would leave alone a man who suddenly bursts in in the middle of the night and says, “Your head of the family and his bodyguards were traitors, and the next head of the family will also be traitors, so they deserve to be beaten.”

When the modifier ‘Archbishop’ is added in front of a speaker, the destructive power is bound to be beyond imagination.

Even those who distrusted the archbishop they were seeing for the first time and preferred to trust the family they had known their whole lives could not ignore the truth that Lotte and her escorts had cavalry.

It was because Lilia had kindly given me the opportunity to touch the magic bottle myself. How could I deny the existence of something so strange that I could hear hallucinations just by touching it?

Once you’ve made the decision, it’s impossible to defend yourself from then on.

‘Without considering such things, the diehard members who are unconditionally loyal would have been selected as the royal guard from the beginning. At that level, they would keep the secret even if they were given cavalry.’

Of course, there was no way to overcome them with force, and they were completely defeated with justification.

There was even a merciful ruling that only those directly involved would be punished and moved on.

From the perspective of those who truly knew nothing, there was no reason to remain loyal to the Alaba family until the end.

“I’ll finish interrogating them and if no additional charges are found, we’ll wrap things up. Is that okay?”

“yes.”

After receiving consent, Lilia led Lotte and her escorts out with Theodore’s help.

In the midst of the chaotic atmosphere, several key figures among the key figures cautiously held Galen’s footsteps.

“Your Majesty, Galen. I’m sorry… but could you spare me a moment?”

Galen nodded. The governor, whose complexion had worsened noticeably since I had seen him earlier, stepped forward as the representative and asked in a hushed voice.

“Your Majesty… are you truly willing to forgive us?”

“Why are you asking me that?”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! You two seem so close… I can’t ask you this question directly… … .”

“I wonder if the Archbishop will hit me in the back of the head?”

“Oh, no! Absolutely not! It’s just that the incident is so big… I can’t help but be worried… … .”

The complexion could get worse there, Galen realized.

It was very pitiful to see the general, who had now become almost like a corpse, be so humble as to crawl on the floor to someone who was as young as his son. It was his fault for having chosen the wrong master.

Galen said with a faint sigh.

“If you are innocent, you don’t have to worry. It is easy to distinguish between innocence and false accusation.”

There are spies who are trained to deliberately spread false information.

If someone has the mental strength to stubbornly spread false information while being subjected to church-style torture that involves almost disassembling and then reassembling a person, then would they be acting like a minions of the devil?

If the thief is asking not because he feels bad about his own actions but because he is truly innocent but is anxious, then there is no need to worry.

“Of course, once the incident becomes known, the public’s disapproval will follow, but you have no choice but to endure it. Even if it’s not your fault.”

“yes…….”

“Consider it fortunate that it ended here. If you just let go of the name Alaba, there will be a way out.”

“… … !”

A light suddenly appeared in the eyes of the general, who had been dead and gloomy until then.

If you think about it, Galen was not wrong.

The reason why the House of Alaba was able to rule over the entire desert with only this much power was because the desert had no charm.

In short, there was originally no such thing as a nearby competitor coveting spheres of influence.

If the Alaba clan was cleanly cut off, and the remaining members were gathered and the signboard was changed, there was a good chance of recovery. It was not a case of shifting responsibility, but it was actually their fault, and since the head of the family and the successor had already been swept away, the importance of the clan had been reduced.

The rosy dream of perhaps founding a family that bore his own name instead of the one of Alaba flickered in the governor’s mind.

The only regret is that the general wasn’t the only one who heard Galen’s words, and everyone else had similarly greedy eyes… But they’ll figure that out. Whether they fight each other or unite, it wasn’t something Galen cared about.

“Anyway, I hope something like this never happens again. The church is not merciful the second time.”

“Would you like to say this?”

“If nothing comes up, I think I’ll be leaving in a day or two. Since this is something that happened in the Western Archdiocese, I’ll have to see the head priest.”

“We will prepare everything!”

The governor shouted loudly. Galen nodded.

No special information emerged from the subsequent interrogation of Lotte’s group.

After being satisfied with the information I had obtained so far, I sent these tattered beings to the other world.

The last stop on the itinerary was the church. There was a church in Chiselin, too. It was small in scale, as the environment was harsh and communication with the outside world was difficult, making it feel like a place of semi-exile.

The next day.

The Church of Cicerin and the House of Alava jointly issued a statement.

The whole city was in an uproar, but because it had Lilia’s seal on it, it didn’t lead to an uproar. The Archbishop’s authority was that strong.

After staying that day and observing the atmosphere of the city, the group decided that there were no major problems and left Chiselin.

The direction is west.

It was headed towards what could be called a ‘proper’ Western Archdiocese, minus the largely barren desert.

* * *

Since Chiselin was a city located in the center of the desert, it took about the same amount of time to get there whether you came from the east or went west.

No matter how well the Alaba family prepared, they couldn’t move any faster than they would if they were riding a camel and being guided by guides.

Of course, if you really wanted to move in a hurry, you could just throw everything away and run or fly west, but it wasn’t necessary.

The exhaustion in the ruins was considerable. It wasn’t like I was squeezing all the way to the bottom, but I needed a rest. It was foolish to move around without being fully prepared just to save a few days. I had to rest when I had to.

However, the faster the news was delivered, the better, so they moved the church of Chiselin and borrowed the power of the Alava family to send messengers to the east and west.

The messengers heading east were to Pope Julian in the center, and the messengers heading west were to Archbishop Miriam in the west.

The content was the same. Ivan and Deckard are dead, so please prepare.

“Call me anytime you need me! I’ll be there right away!”

Unless you come to the desert again, there’s no reason to call you, but anyway.

Leaving behind the people of the Alaba family who were seeing him off with much excitement.

About four days after leaving Chiselin, everyone had completely recovered.

From then on, Theodore started to pursue Lilia again.

“Hahaha! That’s right, this is it! It’s much better than that dull guy!”

A fierce duel between a battle-mad old man who laughs heartily and swings his greatsword, and a blond priest on the other side who also flies around and swings his light sword.

Having quickly become accustomed to the castle within a few days, Lilia can now use all her power to reach a level on par with Theodore.

The lack of specs compared to a warrior was compensated for by the spirit, and the ultimate could be ‘almost’ compensated for by selection. The reason it wasn’t ‘all’ was because Theodore’s ultimate was much more powerful than that of an ordinary jewel warrior, so it couldn’t be completely erased.

“At first, you clearly said you were after me… … .”

Although it was comfortable not to be bothered, Theodore confidently responded to Galen, who felt strangely abandoned.

“That’s right. But when I saw you fight in person, I didn’t think you would be very suitable for sparring. The amount of force you swing is too great. It’s a one-hit fight where whoever gets hit first is the winner.”

“You can do it gently. But Sir Theodore must also do it gently.”

“That’s the problem. In that case, it would be better to just fight Archbishop Lilia. At least it won’t end in one blow.”

“Did you hear that? I think you’ll have to keep working hard, Lilia.”

“I’m okay!”

Well, Galen was also spending his time meaningfully, so the more free time he had, the better.

First of all, the strength of the wall.

[Wall Force Lv.12]

[24% progress to next level]

It wasn’t the last thing Ivan had left behind… it was something Galen had stolen without permission, but anyway, the new magic of the new lineage was leveling up very smoothly.

Fired! Fired!

Of course, it wasn’t at the level where Galen could play, but it was only a matter of time.

Based on my experience so far, since this is also a magic stolen from a jewel, you will be able to grow very quickly up to the golden peak, level 69, through self-study alone.

‘The things you can do with electricity are endless. Of course, that doesn’t mean you can use the Wall Force infinitely… … .’

Magic is not about ‘scientifically’ manipulating some energy. It’s more like using supernatural powers to realize a specific image.

The Vanity Flame burns on its own without any combustibles, or the shadows controlled by Dark Tales have physical powers.

Lightning created by the force of a lightning bolt would not be the same as natural lightning. Just look at the fact that it can be shaped like a brain.

In short, you have to try it out to see how far it can be applied.

Since he would be level 69 in about two or three months, Galen decided not to drink kimchi stew in advance and just focus on basic leveling up until then.

‘The primordial spirit is also smooth.’

It’s not a temporary one, but it doesn’t have an ego… It’s a transitional period? Should I say so? Anyway, except for the water spirit.

The first spirit is Unica of life.

The second spirit is pitch-black Tenebrae.

Galen’s guess that only magic power that has completed integrated evolution can create a primordial spirit was correct.

[Life: Spirit: Grant]

[Spirit Creation]

[Revised World: Primal Spirit]

On the fifth night of the trip, when I was in full condition, the primordial spirit of nothingness was born.

On the eighth night, after three days of rest and replenishing their magical powers, the primordial spirit of the earth was born.

Lilia, who had been watching the entire process from Galen’s side, took charge of naming this time as well. She searched through the dictionary of gore in her head.

“Heomu, um… I guess ‘Libitina’ would be okay too.”

“What does it mean?”

“Death! It weakens the opponent and uses skeletons, so it feels similar.”

“Libitina. The texture is nice, too.”

“The earth, ‘gleba’? It is used to mean just land or soil, but it is said to refer especially to something that is clumped together. A lump?”

“The clay doll is well put together.”

The next day after the names of the third and fourth primordial spirits were decided. It was the ninth day since we left Chiselin.

The desert is finally over.

“Hoooooo.”

Theodore took a deep breath as he entered the border city.

For your information, the guides of the Alaba family had just been sent back, so the group was reduced to three.

“I feel sorry for the people who live there, but it’s not a place I want to stay for long. It’s like dirty sand.”

“I agree with you both.”

Galen shook his head. Lilia grinned and grabbed his hand.

“Let’s stop by the church first and then go take a quick rest!”

The reason for stopping by was that the messenger who had been sent west first would have arrived in this city and made contact with the church’s network. If they had moved normally, it would have taken them a long time, but if they had run like crazy, they would have been able to shorten the journey by a few days.

As expected, a reply had already arrived.

The priest in charge, very nervous about the Archbishop’s visit, reported like a soldier.

“Archbishop Miriam is said to be arriving the day after tomorrow!”

“Oh, you came in person?”

“Yes! He said he would come in person because it was an important matter! He asked me to wait a moment when I got there first!”

“Then tell him that I will be waiting for you at the biggest inn in the city. Where is that?”

After hearing the name and location of the inn, the three left the church. Theodore gestured toward the street.

“How about a drink?”

“Alcohol isn’t really… … .”

“I don’t really… … .”

“Hey, it looks like a knife.”

Theodore grumbled at the two people’s answers that seemed to have been planned in advance. It seemed like they hadn’t expected much from the start.

Well, wizards don’t drink alcohol because it makes them lose their minds, and if Galen doesn’t drink, Lilia wouldn’t say she’ll drink.

“I guess I’ll have to pat my neck a bit after a long time. I’ll wash off the sand and dust from the oil. I’ll eat and sleep on my own, so don’t worry about it.”

“Yes. See you later.”

Theodore turned and walked away, while Galen and Lilia headed towards the inn.

As always, we rented the best annex and unpacked.

For nearly a month, except for a brief stay in Chiselin, I had only been using shabby beds in small villages scattered throughout the desert, so seeing a large, clean, and soft bed was truly impressive.

“Wash first.”

“Thank you always, brother!”

Filling it with water and heating it with a heat wave. The bath water was prepared much faster than asking the inn staff. Lilia smiled and went into the bathroom.

“Whoa.”

As the weather became chilly in early winter, soaking in hot spring-like water felt like heaven.

When Lilia, who had been enjoying a somewhat happy bath time, came out.

“Brother! Come in!”

“Oh, are you finished?”

Galen, who was relaxing in an easy chair in the living room, was holding a crystal ball in his hand.

It was the horseman that Davia had.
