: Clue (3)

Linmer looked at Jamie standing still.

His magical subject 'cognitive dissonance' touches all the senses of the subject, causing them to see powerful hallucinations.

He has such a calm face now, but there must be a fierce battle going on in his image world.

Even if you know, you can't cope

It was impossible to escape the magical subjectivity of the spiritual world unless they were superior to their opponents.

Even if you are good, you will have to work hard for a long time. So it ends here.

"If you did, you would be dead, Jamie Welton."

If you can't get rid of the hallucinations, you'll die many times without feeling any pain.

Linmer had already had time to kill Jamie hundreds of times more.

This is the magical subjectivity he obtained in order to defeat the Sword Master. This is a secret technique to show that wizards, who are treated as weak compared to swordsmen, are not.

"I have to do this to bother you."

If left like this, even Jamie would suffer greatly mentally. It is clear that the world will not forgive him if he only destroys Seldam's treasure in Dalian.

Before that, Earl Welton might decapitate him and die.

"Your father is still scary."

Linmer smiled and raised his hand.

It was a moment to adjust mana with the intention of achieving the magic of cognitive dissonance.

-thud!!

Jamie's tiny body shook once, sending a shockwave over the collapsed ground.

White dust floated into the air.

At that moment, the mana around him began to be absorbed by Jamie, or more precisely, the sword and staff he held in both hands.

"That guy, what ?"

I stopped drinking and watched.

Something is about to change in Jamie. I don't know what the change is, but if you see it yourself, you'll know it even if you don't want to.

Mana swirls.

Mana that refuses to be absorbed. At that moment, a black light appeared on Jamie's skin.

It was Leviathan. However, since the black mana was completely gone, Rinmer's eyes could only see it as a strange power.

At that moment, Jamie raised both hands and crossed the sword with the staff. And lowered the sword in a straight line.

" !!"

Linmer saw a huge ball of fire falling over his head.

The earth cracks and lava rises.

A thunderbolt fell, and a gust of wind raged.

He laughed, heh heh.

All sorts of disasters engulfed him.

* * *

Jamie had a strange experience.

At first, he was planning to return to reality by absorbing the mana that maintains the hallucinations with Leviathan.

I wasn't sure if it would work or not, but I thought I could do it, so I danced the sword dance. Following the formula of the White Sea, he somehow drew the flow of mana towards him.

A strange experience has occurred since then.

The first was Scud. With his dimly opened eyes, he followed the trail of the sword's movement. The tangled disaster began to cut like paper.

Next was Beyond Avalon. This superlative staff poured the mana absorbed into the world behind them. Then the illusion began to be sucked into Jamie's mana.

At first, I was planning to absorb only mana, but Linmer's magic came with the whole thing.

'What is this .'

Something unexpected happened.

Scud's sword blade fluttered in rainbow colors.

As soon as I saw it, I knew it instinctively. This is Linmer's magical subject 'cognitive dissonance'.

'But how could this be?'

The archmage's magical subjectivity was assimilated with the sword.

The corners of Jamie's lips rose.

I'm not sure what happened, but Jamie raised his arms and crossed the sword and the staff.

Both weapons resonate.

As it was, the scud was lowered in a straight line.

All illusions were shattered and reality revealed itself.

Linmer's shocked expression was very clear. All illusions were slashed and shot to return to their master.

When he looked at the sword again, the iridescent light had disappeared.

"What did you do?"

Linmer asked.

It must have returned an illusion that evoked the illusion of all senses, but he stood there as if nothing had happened.

"I didn't know you could reverse the illusion of the five senses that I created using my magical subjectivity."

He spoke bluntly, but he couldn't hide the faint emotional change in his voice.

Linmer was shocked to the point that it was difficult to accept the reality now.

Jamie looked around Scud and Beyond Avalon, then sent the staff back to Subspace with a black scabbard.

"I don't know either. At first, I was just absorbing mana with the intention of clearing the hallucinations, but at some point, my weapon was mixed with the power of the Marquis.

" mixed in."

"I don't know the theory. I think I should go and do some more analysis."

"Huh. Is it just a coincidence?"

Accident.

That said, what just happened happened by chance.

'But if you let it happen by chance, it's just sewage.'

Jamie saw a new path.

I still don't know how to get there, but at least I've found a clue.

'Maybe, this is my new .'

has not been confirmed

Because people don't know how things will turn out.

But the power I just saw.

there is no such thing as power

It's because you just took the opponent's power and gave it back.

The problem is that it depends on the strength of the opponent.

The corners of Jamie's lips rose.

I thought I was good at learning the sword. Because I have a new weapon.

Jamie thought so.

"Marquis. So, how was it?"

Linmer laughed bitterly at that question.

I went out with a light heart, but the situation did not become light at all.

But I had no intention of reversing what I said.

"Enough. Let me give you total control over the breathing technique."

Thank you.

Jamie smiled and greeted Linmer's permission.

* * *

"Did you see everything?"

" ."

Linmer looked at the four elder Raymon, unable to take his eyes off the large crystal ball.

Currently, the two were contemplating and creating a magic to use in war together. But Jamie showed up, and Raymon decided to watch from here, but didn't go out in person.

"I wish I could tell you how I felt ."

Raymon turned his head to look at Linmer.

Raymon sighed and opened his mouth as he chuckled as if to say something.

"It's disappointing. I never thought that swords and magic could be so harmonious."

Jamie's first attack was not like an attack by a magic swordsman who was only in his name.

Magic swordsmen treat swords like magic tools. Throwing fireballs, or putting fire on the sword.

It was just a substitute for Auror. There were only a handful of people who actively mixed magic and even wielded a sword.

Even then, both of them were vague, and in practice, most of them were neither one nor the other.

But Jamie was different. When he first teleported through space and aimed at Rinmer's back, the attack was nothing short of a top-notch assassination technique.

If the opponent wasn't an archmage like Rinmer, he would surely have died because of his carelessness. But Jamie had that in mind.

After creating a clone, he fired a blow that mixed powerful magic from all four directions. It was not enough that Linmer's shield had been smashed, and even his robes were burned.

Then it was even more shocking. Rinmer's magical subjectivity was well known to Raymon. An absolute hallucination magic that is virtually impossible to escape if hit.

made it his own. Although it was temporary, it even sent the attack back to the caster.

"Jamie, who the hell is that kid?"

"The eldest son of the Welton family."

"I am not saying that. Is that kid really human?"

Jamie wasn't human when Ramon thought it was.

Dragon or high elf.

It was a talent that could not be explained if it were not for the two races at the peak of magic.

In addition, the swordsmanship I had just seen was very short, but at an unusual level.

"Do you think a human being can be born with so many abilities?"

Hmm.

"It's artificial."

"What do you mean?"

"The very existence of Jamie Welton is artificial. He is a superman, as if he was made for 'something', that is!"

Raymon said to Linmer with wide eyes.

"You know what it is, even if you don't have to tell me, right?"

"Raymon."

okay. Jamie Welton is the one who came down to save humans, those who are at the bottom of this world!"

"Stop talking. Ears are everywhere."

"To abolish the Zenith Church. okay. It starts with the Zenith school. Jamie Welton has the power to destroy the Zenith. It will definitely grow there within 10 years."

"Keep the excitement down. 12 Gods members are everywhere, and right now Jamie is also a Pyro saint."

"It's also not easy to understand. Why did the goddess make Jamie Welton a saint? what are you aiming for I hope he realizes that he is the savior of humans... ?"

"It's a guess. Rather, it calms the excitement. Your face is turning red now. Haven't you broken that habit yet?

Raymon let out a short breath as Linmer pointed out with a frown.

"Whoa- I'm sorry. It was such a shock."

"Isn't that the same as me as the party involved? I have been reflected in my magical subjectivity."

I was able to control the power. Seriously, even Jamie would have gone insane.

Even so, being retaliated against hurt my self-esteem.

'On the one hand, it means very hopeful.'

Rayman is right.

He also didn't think Jamie was an ordinary kid.

A being with absurd power, as if it appeared for the present humans.

That's Jamie Welton.

"Let's watch more. There is still time to spare."

"Children of the Zenith Church. Let's see how long we can hide.

The two archmages hardened their expressions as they recalled their common enemy.

* * *

Linmer gave permission to transfer the whole-body breathing method.

I don't know how far Anne will grow with this. If it didn't work, I was thinking of giving up.

For those with no qualifications, the whole-body breathing method was just a light apricot.

However, as much as he swore to Linmer, he was going to do his best. Anne must do her best too.

"This is a challenge for me too."

In the past, Diablo Volfir was an excellent teacher.

All the disciples who were taught by him became great wizards. Those were happy days. I remembered the time when the disciples brought him and introduced him as their own disciple.

A child who has been taught teaches another child and teaches another child.

That's how it builds up. Even if there is no blood flow, education creates a bond as strong as a family through the strong bond of a teacher and a disciple.

It all ended in ruins, but Jamie was determined to do the same again.

That was Jamie's and Diablo Volfir's education system.

'I'm just preventing that from happening.'

You will become much stronger than in your previous life.

I will transcend the phases of the 12 gods so as not to be like that.

Even if it was all well done by Anne, you might be worried.

It was when Jamie was walking along the curriculum to figure out how to teach.

Hey.

Huh?

I turned around and saw a red-haired boy, Lennon, standing there.

Jamie frowned and strode towards him.

Hey?

"Why, why are you approaching me like that?"

"Is this kid being rude to his teacher?"

Ahh!

Jamie walked up to his nose in an instant and snapped his finger over Lennon's forehead.

Lennon's head was bent backwards on the night loaded with mana.

It seemed quite painful to grab his blushing forehead and shake his body.

Jamie looked at Lennon like that and said.

"In the past, I was just my age, but now I'm your class teacher, hey??"

"Um, sorry."

sorry??

Jamie reached out to hit the chestnut again, and Lennon flinched and covered his forehead with his hand.

Then, with a face of disgrace, he trembled and apologized.

Sorry ."

"If you call the teacher that way again from now on, it won't end in a bad night. Then, you know?"

Lennon swallowed dry saliva at the words 'You know'.

It was because of the memory of being thrown into the abyss by Jamie.

Lennon nodded vigorously.

"So why did you call me?"

that I heard you taught Anne Meyer magic."

"Have you never told anyone?"

"I was passing by and overheard you."

Do not be ridiculous. Do you think I can't read your character?

" I heard it from a passing student."

To be precise, he was a student who claimed to be Lennon's subordinate.

The academy had quite a few followers of Lennon, all opportunists who wanted to somehow connect with the Simon family.

"Is this bastard trying to build power already? How long have you been in school?"

"No, I didn't make it. They just come up to me and say stuff like that. This is real!"

In the past, I would have used it by scratching the hearts of those who wanted to look good to me, but after being properly abused by Jamie, I stopped thinking about it at all.

"Anyway, are you going to teach Anne the real magic?"

okay. Why?"

"Teach me too!"

What?

Jamie frowned at Lennon's sudden remark.
