Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent - Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent chapter 212

212 – Hero.

The sunlight passing through the window is split into hexagons. In this extremely cool weather, Cornette, the president of the Faculty of Magic, looked at the scenery outside in silence.

Her calendar is filled with schedules.

However, the number indicating today was particularly emphasized. There were three circles. In fact, it was such an important day that it could not even be compared to other days.

‘The time has finally come.’

A struggle to become a hero and a preliminary meeting for it. Finally, it was time for the representatives of the Faculty of Magic to head there.

Although I have always been interested in dressing up, I needed to pay special attention today. The president looked around in the mirror, checking and rechecking his appearance.

“Huh….”

It was natural.

Although it is the representatives who compete, it is they who become the face of the magic department. Therefore, it was impossible to leave a small mess on any part of the body.

After a while.

After a while again.

Only after putting on all the elegant and formal things did Cornette go outside. The secretary was already waiting at the entrance outside the accommodation.

She bows her head.

“President, have you finished preparing?”

“Yes.”

As expected, a nervous look was evident on the secretary’s face. She adjusted her correct glasses a few times and continued her speech.

“All the representatives have already gathered.”

“Aha, I don’t know if everyone is okay.”

“It is clear that I trained rigorously. I’m just worried about my condition. “I haven’t seen you sleep lately.”

“Oh my, there’s nothing more important than sleep…” .”

As the secretary took her steps as if to guide her, Cornette quietly followed behind her. The weather was still nice again.

I walked and walked.

It didn’t seem like there would be much conversation between the two as they walked around the campus, but for some reason the secretary opened her mouth.

“President.”

“Yes.”

“I tried to think about it alone, but my mind was so dull. “I feel comfortable only if I tell someone.”

“Please feel free to say whatever you want.”

Then the secretary asked with her serious face.

“… “What will happen in the future?”

Cornette thought briefly before answering.

“Don’t think too hard about it. Participating in itself is something worth celebrating, and regardless of the outcome, it will be great nourishment for the delegates.”

“As expected, right? I should be satisfied with this much….”

“But these are just words spoken by the president.”

Cornette abruptly interrupted the secretary.

“As a wizard, I think winning is possible.”

“… “Winning?”

“It would be a bit absurd to say that it is possible. I believe I will win. “This is my honest feeling.”

The secretary turned his head to ask something, but the president’s face was so serious that he didn’t ask anything. Only the sincerity contained within is visible.

While we were having that conversation, my feet touched the training ground. When the door opens, the long-awaited faces of the representatives are seen.

“… !”

Although they promised not to look disheveled, Cornette and the secretary could not help but widen their eyes when they encountered the faces of the representatives. It’s like force majeure.

“Uh… ?”

It was the secretary who first expressed doubt.

I blinked several times, but the scenery before my eyes did not change. What came into his field of vision seemed to be reality, not illusion.

‘It’s so different from what I expected?’

A look full of dark circles under the eyes, a look of intimidation…. She imagined something like that, but there was nothing like it.

Rather, what I feel is deeply sunken mana. Calm like a huge lake. Looks calm and not tired.

“Aha.”

Cornette expressed his admiration in his own way.

Now, isn’t the modifier ‘wizard’ more appropriate than ‘student’? It was subtle that the day to feel this appreciation had come, and I was also gratified by their growth.

Representatives who were concentrating on their own training began to gather in front of Cornet one by one. Now that the important day has arrived, they seem to be waiting for you to say something.

“First of all….”

Cornette continued speaking with a slight smile.

“I understand well that the representatives did their best. However, you probably know this better than I do.”

Since these are words spoken as the president, it was time to repeat what I said to the secretary. Together with Flan, they overcame really difficult training. So let’s not put pressure on it.

With that thought in mind, I calmly spit it out.

“This event has great meaning just by participating. “It would not be strange if no heroes were born among them.”

But after saying that, Cornette had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. The representatives who were listening to his story began to smile brightly.

While Weird Yeokan was examining the situation for a moment, Lewis spoke first.

“President. Our only goal is to win. “I mean it.”

“….”

“And I think we can win. Now.”

Cornette’s eyes looked around once again. However, this time it was not to understand the situation, but to check whether the other representatives’ thoughts were the same.

Everyone had no confusion on their faces. Rather, there are just smiles all over the place, as if they are going to do something fun.

Only then did Cornette raise his eyebrows.

“Good. Well, I hope you achieve your goal.”

Afterwards, Cornette’s gaze turned over Lewis’ shoulder. Because far away in the training ground, there was a man.

Plan.

Not only Cornette but everyone’s eyes turn to that place. As always, he was lost in his own thoughts.

Feeling everyone’s gaze, Plan finished his meditation. He asks with his eyes, as if asking what he is looking at.

Becky said with a slight smile.

“We are talking about various things before we start in earnest. “Flan, don’t you have anything to say?”

The man just brushed her hair as if he was annoyed.

“Let’s go.”

◈

The meeting was held at the imperial palace.

Because the four seasons coexist at the same time, this place contains both contradiction and artistic beauty, but it has to be that way. The current atmosphere inside the garden was hotter than any other summer.

‘The hero is finally decided.’

It was precisely because of this fact.

How long was the gap in which no hero was selected on the continent? It was inevitable that so much attention would be focused on finally being selected after a long time.

There were many people busy in the garden to greet those who would participate in the pre-meeting, and they did not rest their bodies or even their mouths at all.

Among the officials, there was a particularly young boy.

The name is Shata. Thanks to her parents, she was a child who quickly entered the imperial family. It’s the so-called parachute.

The tax collector’s secretary was standing next to him, and Shatta muttered quietly.

“I don’t really understand the idea of being a sword saint. “I once heard adults talk about it when I was very young.”

“You are still young. And that’s normal. Even when I was very young, there was no sword master.”

“Aren’t you just a very strong person?”

“Hey, no matter what, it’s bad to only know that much.”

The tax collector’s secretary clicked his tongue.

“When humans interact with other races. Do it with the Sword Saint at the head. “Do you understand what I mean?”

“Um…. No.”

“The balance of power on the continent changes depending on which race recognizes our hero, which race treats us friendly, and all these little things.”

“Even if you say that, I don’t know.”

As Shatta scratched his head, the tax secretary eventually shouted.

“If you meet the wrong hero, you too will be kicked out. “Everything is ruined!”

“What? No, it was something really important.”

Shatta, who had been answering vaguely until now, suddenly lit up his eyes. He asks again with a serious look on his face.

“Are all the hero candidates now good people? “Who do you think it will be?”

“That question is a bit difficult….”

The customs secretary rubbed his chin.

“It’s difficult? “Is something difficult for you?”

“It’s a bit difficult now. Therefore…. I’m really hungry and thirsty right now….”

Shata’s body immediately rotated. She secretly steals from her the desserts and drinks that are supposed to be served to the guests.

The tax collector’s secretary accepted it.

“If you get caught eating…. Know?”

“I’ll just assume that I touched it. “Please finish the story.”

“Okay, okay.”

The tax collector’s secretary took a big bite of the dessert and muttered. It was an egg tart with truly exquisite taste.

Shata could not overcome her silence and muttered again.

“Isn’t Viola the most influential?”

“It’s true, but it’s also wrong. Oh, wait a minute. I want to eat a croissant too. That. That. “Hurry up before it passes by.”

Shata immediately picked up a croissant topped with strawberries and whipped cream. The tax collector’s secretary says, munching on it.

“Restrictions on location, time, and weapons are added. “It’s actually difficult to predict a specific game.”

“Does this also apply to wizards?”

“Wizard?”

“Yes. The magic department is also participating this time. According to what you said, isn’t it impossible to guarantee a match between the Faculty of Magic and the Capital Knight?”

“Ugh.”

The tax collector’s secretary slapped Shata on the forehead.

“Aya!”

“You idiot.”

“No, why are you hitting me?”

“The opponent is a water engineer….”

“Flan is very famous. “I know that flan.”

The tax collector’s secretary sighed.

“Who these days doesn’t know that flan is great? The problem is that only flan is great. “Other representatives are not following suit.”

“Oh, I see….”

“Furthermore, Plan has no family, so there is no family. “It’s cool for knights to come from a centuries-old swordsmanship family, but there’s no such thing.”

“It’s a family….”

Shata shook her head at the adults’ circumstances.

Right then.

A group of people entered the garden.

Although they were part of the group, there was only one person who caught Shata’s eye. A person who is ridiculously long. A man who is extremely sharp and has eyes like a beast.

“….”

Shata forgot her entire conversation just now.

She just thought instinctively.

I think that person who appears now will be a hero.
