CH 183

: Family (1)

A lot happened in three months.

First of all, there was Kennyak's funeral.

Originally, he was also guilty of participating in the demonic plans, so the post-processing should also be completed as a criminal.

However, at Jamie and Anne's aggressive request, they did not receive a criminal ticket. Even so, the seriousness of the crimes committed so far was so great that no funeral was held at the level of the magic world.

Siegfried felt sorry for this and, with the authority of the dean, held a funeral at the Phoenix Academy.

Although not many people attended, all the students who were blessed by him attended and filled the place.

Then, the remnants of the demons were wiped out on a large scale.

He requested the dispatch of a paladin to the Church of the 12 Gods staying in the land of Seldam from the capital city.

Those related to the demons were captured one after another.

They were all napus, so no one knew about the existence of Trika.

And as if Trika used some power, he pulled out all the magic from the addicts of Apophis.

Trika, who hates humans today, took care of its owner.

Thanks to that, humans in critical condition were lucky enough to survive. But it was impossible to save everyone, and some lost their lives.

One of the main culprits in this case, the third elder Serpent Gerol, was branded as the enemy of mankind. His family quickly disintegrated.

Since he had no family, the users belonged to the kingdom.

Several depressing events overlapped one after another, creating an unusually depressing atmosphere in the magical world.

Fortunately, the melancholy that spread throughout the city didn't last long.

It was because of the headlights on the magic newspaper about a fortnight after the incident was over.

[The greatest talent of all time, Jamie Welton! He ascended to the position of an archmage at the age of 8!]

Like a pearl in the mud, this news came as a ray of hope for those who are depressed.

This article spread across the kingdom in an instant, and then spread across the world.

In the capital city, Jamie Welton was recognized as the Archmage and appointed as the temporary elder of the wizarding world.

A formal appointment was planned after his body was healed.

Three months passed like that.

"How are you?"

Anne was looking somewhere with her hands clasped with a worried expression on her face.

Lennon was with him.

Lennon crossed his arms and looked away, pretending he didn't care, but his eyes were on the same spot Anne was looking.

Hmm.

There was Jamie standing up and looking at her hand.

He tried to stretch his arms out as hard as he could, and repeatedly stretch his legs here and there.

I also jumped and ran short distances with all my might.

The posture of holding the sword and the movement of wielding it, I gently stepped on the movement of the White Sea.

Finally, it stimulated the mana core that was spread evenly throughout the body.

Woong-!

Mana flows smoothly through the body.

Jamie closed her eyes and moved her mana around.

It works smoothly with no blockages.

He nodded and raised the corners of his lips.

Perfect.

really?!

Anne jumped and ran right next to her.

Lennon was also happy, but he calmly approached him without expressing his feelings as much as possible.

After crying once three months ago, I have a habit of hiding my emotions as much as possible.

Jamie found it funny, but he thought it was a child's privilege.

"Does Lennon have anything to say to me?"

" congratulations.

"Is that the congratulatory attitude?"

congratulations!

Lennon closed his eyes and screamed.

Jamie smiled and said to Anne.

"I'm going to lose my ears. Isn't it, Anne?

Iknow, right. Ugly little brother, I'm the older sister, so I'll teach you hard."

"Who is your sister!"

"Anne is the older sister, so are you the older brother?"

"That, that ."

Because Jamie was a young kondae, he valued this hierarchical relationship. Even though they came in as students on the same day, Anne and Lennon were not in the same rank.

It's all over already.

Lennon had nothing to say and just bit his lip.

Anne looked at Lennon like that and smiled happily.

'I mean, Anne's pretty good too.'

I thought he was far and wide, but he had a playful personality.

Jamie stroked the heads of the two children.

"Be nice. The death penalty is one until death."

In a previous life, I had never told this to my children. It remained with great regret and regret.

Only these disciples wanted to prevent that from happening.

Fortunately, Anne was a playful but caring child, and Lennon pretended to be strong, but was not a bad-hearted guy.

'There were bad times.'

Still, because he was still a child, it was corrected quickly.

If it was not corrected, I tried to correct it by force, but it was a very fortunate part for Lennon.

right. Master, Dean Siegfried has come and gone. You said you'd come to me when you're ready?

Where?

"He said he would be in the central tower office."

I know. By the way, have you finished your assignments?"

" ."

" ."

When I mentioned the 'task', Anne and Lennon became a couple.

Jamie frowned.

"You still haven't?"

" It's hard.

"It's not as I thought."

Jamie couldn't properly teach his disciples because he had been focused on recovery for three months.

Instead, he gave me a task so that I could practice on my own.

The task given this time was 'Activation of multiple attributes'.

It wasn't particularly difficult. It is necessary to express two or more properties at the same time.

"It's the foundation. If you can't learn this on your own, you can't do it."

The energy of the five elements floated on Jamie's five fingers.

"It's not just about ascending the state. It's important to know how many different types of magic and attributes you handle when you reach your level."

"But just focusing on one attribute is daunting."

"Multi attribute development is difficult even for professional wizards, but a kid like us ."

"Lennon. Since when did you treat yourself like a kid? Compared to the kids in elementary school, he was a hotter guy."

"Hey, I'm not comparing myself to them!"

look. Even now. You say you're a kid by your mouth?

Yes. Lennon makes fun of me every day for being an idiot. He knows how to do it, but I can't."

Hey! What if I say that!"

When I told Jamie about what happened when we were alone, Lennon started a game and tried to shut Anne's mouth.

"Hey to my sister?!"

" sister."

okay. I am your sister, sister."

Lennon looked at him, but Anne only smiled.

Jamie chuckled and said to the disciples.

"Anyway, you can do it. I'm the one who doesn't make you do the impossible. right?

" ."

" ."

answer.

Yeah!

Jamie, who was forced to answer, nodded with a satisfied smile.

"There is no hint. Multi-attribute is something you have to realize yourself. I believe I can do it."

"Yeah ."

"I'll try ."

"Then finish it by the time I get there."

Jamie said as he walked out the door.

"Yeah?!"

"That's not it!!"

The disciples lifted their heads and ran towards the door Jamie had left.

But Jamie was nowhere to be seen.

As soon as he left the door, he teleported.

Anne and Lennon stared into the empty hallway, empty faces.

* * *

Siegfried was not in the Phoenix Academy dean's office, but in his office in the center of the magical world, in the central tower.

He didn't like it very much.

It was like a hotbed of magic politics. However, after going through a series of incidents, I spent most of my time here.

It wasn't because I changed my mind.

"My life, which happened to be free ."

Jamie Wellton.

because of that child.

No, calling it a child is a bit misleading.

In that tiny body, there was a being who was at the peak of magic tens of thousands of years ago.

If I had just known that, I would not have done it this far, but I promised.

I will help you in the future.

So, I ended up living in the central horse tower, where there was no access except for meetings.

"That's why people have to be careful with what they say."

Siegfried shook his head.

The plan to sit in a high-ranking position and live like a hanyang was thwarted.

I enjoyed it for a long time though.

Didn't he continue to travel the world by extorting a lot of funds in the name of the Archmage?

There are still many places I haven't been to, but I didn't have any regrets because I wandered around enough to get bored.

Just then, a knock was heard from outside.

"Elder."

"Sally?"

It was his exclusive secretary, Sally.

A silver-haired beauty with her hair neatly tied up came into the office.

"What's going on?"

"Jamie has arrived."

"I'm asking you to come in."

Okay.

"Bring me some tea, please."

Yeah.

As Selly left, Siegfried sighed.

Being a secretary was uncomfortable.

I didn't use a secretary when I was in the dean's office. At that time, Siegfried was also the most powerful, so no one said anything to him, but not here.

- Would it be useful if someone named the elder of the magic world did everything? That too in the central horse tower, a symbol of the magic world.

- That's right. And the secretary isn't just for you. If you start working here, you'll be in contact with all kinds of high-ranking officials, and if you hand out your car then they'll ignore you?

- That's what it's like to set foot here. If you don't like it, give up your eldership and live only enjoying the honor of the Archmage. That alone will guarantee sufficient research funds and the comfortable life you seek. If you don't like it, don't complain and work hard!

Siegfried recalled the young nagging advice of the second elder, Linmer, and the fourth elder, Raymon.

It was such a long nagging that my ears scabbed over.

Kkondae-like yangbans.

Thinking like that, I shrugged.

"Why are you sighing so much?"

"Are you here?"

"I heard you called."

Jamie naturally sat across from Siegfried.

Soon after, Sally showed up with her car and put it down in front of the two of them.

"Then let's have a conversation."

Sally bowed her head briefly and went outside.

Siegfried looked at her back and sighed.

"Are you still uncomfortable with your personal assistant?"

"Who do you feel like you're being watched?"

"Elder is also a very special person."

Jamie sips the tea with an incomprehensible face. Then he brought up the subject right away.

"Then why did you call me?"

"I guess you haven't heard the news yet."

The news?

Siegfried tapped the teacup with his index finger and raised the corner of his mouth.

It was when Jamie frowned at that eerie smile.

"I have received a call from the royal castle."

" king?"

Siegfried cleared his throat with his hand, got up from his seat and began to speak in a heavy tone.

Let Jamie Welton receive the king's orders!

When Jamie opened his eyes and looked at Siegfried at the sudden remark, Siegfried shouted.

"Kneel down!"

I couldn't understand the situation well, but the name of the king cannot be used as a joke.

Jamie got up and knelt down on one knee.

Siegfried began to recite the name of the king he had remembered in his head.

"Tell Jamie Welton. The date and time is 12 o'clock the day after tomorrow. Jamie Welton's Archmage appointment ceremony will be held at the Royal Skadium in Fibre, the capital of Seldam Kingdom. Make sure you come."

He returned to his original voice and finished speaking.

That is all.

An unexpected move was caught.

Jamie had a tired face already.
