Magic Academy's Genius Blinker - Chapter 145
Chapter 145
School Competition (3)
The school competition was held at a different location each year.
Three years ago, it was at Kaikaren Private Magic School, two years ago at Starflower Tree Magic School, and last year at Molondo Magic School.
This year, the school competition is being held at Stella Academy.
As a result, the students of Stella Academy were extremely busy preparing for the competition.
Of course, they weren’t doing it for free.
Students who helped prepare for the competition were given substantial rewards and benefits, so among the students attending Stella, it was known as a ‘golden part-time job,’ and many commoners decided to stay and work instead of going on summer vacation.
Of course, some students didn’t care about such things and continued with their own tasks.
Bang!
“Here it is.”
Stella Magic Library.
Flame placed a pile of thick books on the table.
Her strength was unbelievable for such a small frame, but the other two girls didn’t seem to care as they each took a book and started reading.
‘Twelve Divine Moons.’
Aiselle, Hong Bi-yeon, and Flame were investigating the existence known as the Twelve Divine Moons, which were said to be legendary beings.
After suddenly falling asleep a thousand years ago, they now only existed in the form of faith, and they were speculated to be the key to the world’s destruction.
The twelve light clusters shown in the Library of Stars.
No matter how they thought about it, they were undoubtedly the remnants left by the Twelve Divine Moons.
Additionally, the girls decided to share the information or incidents they each knew.
First was Flame.
“…If Baek Yu-seol really returned with the power of ‘Silver Age November,’ he wouldn’t be able to tell us about it.”
T h is w a s c o p i e d fro m k i n g m t l . o r g
“Why is that?”
“It’s similar to being stopped when trying to tell others about the knowledge seen in the Library of Stars. The moment he reveals events from the future, he could cease to exist due to the prohibition power of ‘heavenly secrets.'”
No one questioned how Flame knew that fact. They respected each other’s boundaries.
“So, talking directly with Baek Yu-seol about this matter is impossible.”
“Right. That guy… can’t tell us anything. He might even avoid us for knowing the secret. If the knowledge of the future were to leak to us…”
Aiselle, who had experienced what could happen, turned pale.
“…When Principal Eltemon Eltrine used magic to hear the secret of the Library of Stars, he collapsed, coughing up blood. It’s never the right choice.”
“That bad…”
The girls’ faces turned grim upon hearing that even the reputedly strongest Eltemon Eltrine couldn’t withstand it.
Next was Hong Bi-yeon.
“Do you remember the last day of the Familiar Contract Ceremony?”
“Of course.”
“We almost died…”
T hi s was c o p i e d f r o m k i n gmt l .o r g
“At that time, I saw something quite remarkable. After Baek Yu-seol defeated Professor Maizen and fainted… one of the Twelve Divine Moons, ‘Red Spring March,’ was holding that commoner.”
“What, what did you say?”
“The Twelve Divine Moons… revealed themselves?”
This was quite a shocking piece of information, and Flame and Aiselle’s eyes widened.
“Yes. It was unmistakably Red Spring March. Though I didn’t know much about that being, strangely, I recognized it the moment I saw it. That person is a Divine Moon. A being that governs the power of the heart…”
Why was such a being holding Baek Yu-seol? What kind of relationship existed between him and Red Spring March?
…If that’s the case.
Is Baek Yu-seol really traveling the world to gather the Twelve Divine Moons?
“Now that you mention it… he always went out every weekend.”
“So, while handling school schedules, he was traveling the world on weekends.”
It was suddenly impressive. Maybe that’s why he dozed off during class because of his hectic schedule.
“Indeed. With his level of knowledge… he doesn’t really need to attend the academy.”
“Right. Instead of attending school, he should be traveling the world to gather the Twelve Divine Moons.”
“There must be a reason he found through countless experiences that makes attending school necessary.”
Baek Yu-seol.
His school life was special yet ordinary.
His uniqueness lay in not using magic, but his academic rankings always hovered around the middle.
Meaning, it wasn’t academics that made him attend school.
“Then, the remaining reason is…”
“Human relationships… only.”
If he intended to solve everything alone in this lifetime, he would have dropped out of school and wandered the world, accumulating his own strength.
But that way was not correct.
The best choice to prevent the world’s destruction was to be at Stella Academy.
Right after his admission, the people he was most interested in…
“Is it… us?”
Flame’s hollow voice made Aiselle and Hong Bi-yeon purse their lips tightly.
She wasn’t wrong.
Right after admission, Baek Yu-seol was particularly concerned with the three people present here.
Is that it…
T h is w a s co p i ed f r o m k ing m t l. o rg
Flame, knowing the existence of the original romance fantasy, could understand to some extent.
She was an otherworldly possessor, Aiselle was the main character of the original story, and Hong Bi-yeon was the top rival with talents comparable to the main character.
Adding Ma Yuseong and considering how he subtly paid attention to various other cadets, perhaps he found some potential in the cadets of Stella.
But the other two girls seemed a bit confused.
‘Why? Me?’
They couldn’t yet grasp the greatness of their future as grand mages.
Th is w as co pi ed f r o m k i n g m t l. or g
Still…
T h i s w a s c o p ie d fr o m k i ngm tl. o r g
The fact that Baek Yu-seol had been subtly paying attention to them from the beginning was quite satisfying, bringing subtle smiles to the girls’ faces.
On the highest peak of the Primordial Mountains.
An unnamed ancient castle.
Advisor Oranha came alone to meet their king, Flowerseorin, who ruled over all fairies and elves.
Passing through the minimum guard protecting the castle, Oranha knelt as he reached the top, and Flowerseorin made her presence known.
-…You have come, Oranha.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Her voice was slightly hoarse.
It had been a long time since she used her voice. Since her voice itself held enchanting power, she refrained from speaking to avoid bewitching those around her.
Perhaps delighted at having the only person she could confide in visit, Flowerseorin’s footsteps came closer to the door.
However, the door did not open.
Although Oranha had immunity against curses strong enough to meet her gaze, prolonged exposure could lead to unknown consequences.
…Of course.
The claim that Oranha had ‘curse immunity’ was a blatant lie.
He had long been enchanted by Flowerseorin’s power but concealed this fact well.
Lovesickness?
Such an ailment was for the weak-willed.
Upon falling in love, one should hone their abilities and devise a plan to win over their beloved, not suffer alone and die.
Oranha hid all his emotions thoroughly.
How many times had he wanted to rush and confess his love whenever they faced each other?
Without the trait [Iron Will], he might have ended up like everyone else.
-What brings you here?
Hearing Flowerseorin’s excited voice made his heart race. Trying to stay calm and emotionless, he began to speak.
“The school competition begins next week. There is no need for Your Majesty to attend personally, but an invitation has arrived.”
-…I see. I cannot go.
There was no need for the Elf King to attend a mere school competition where students competed.
T h i s w a s c o p ied f ro m ki n gm t l . o r g
Even without the curse.
However, since many prestigious schools participated, it was common for kings or high-ranking nobles to visit, so it wouldn’t be strange if the Elf King attended.
Politically, meeting Eltemon Eltrine, who would be observing the competition, was the main reason.
“I wish to accompany Your Majesty to this year’s school competition.”
-Is that so…?
Oranha’s firm tone suggested a reason.
As Flowerseorin’s most trusted confidant, she did not reprimand him and asked for the reason.
-Why is that?
“I previously mentioned finding traces of the ‘Spirit Killer’ Your Majesty was seeking.”
Upon hearing the sensitive term for Flowerseorin, the atmosphere grew slightly colder.
The temperature dropped due to her power.
But Oranha continued confidently.
“I believe I have found solid evidence.”
The school competition is being held at Stella Academy. And… Baek Yu-seol is attending there.
Oranha had conducted extensive investigations into him, even capturing Dark Mages to interrogate them about Baek Yu-seol’s identity.
The conclusion reached.
‘Baek Yu-seol is not an ordinary student.’
‘Baek Yu-seol has a hidden backing.’
He attends school for unusual reasons. It was odd for a non-Archmage human to maintain the appearance of a young boy, but that was all.
‘He hides his dark mana and corrupted soul… there’s no reason he couldn’t hide his appearance.’
He had even met people recently with the technology to alter appearances.
‘The Tower of the New Moon.’
Operating quietly in the shadows, they had overwhelming magical skills, making it possible, but the important thing was that appearance alteration was plausible.
Baek Yu-seol was undoubtedly equipped with such cutting-edge magical skills, hiding his true identity while attending Stella.
T h i s w as c op i ed f r o m kin g mt l .o rg
T h i s w as c op i e d fr o m k i n gm t l . or g
This wasn’t just his assumption.
He had thoroughly investigated numerous Dark Mage groups, discovering their keen interest in Baek Yu-seol, absorbing all their information, and researching his actions.
‘He cannot deceive me.’
The most renowned High Elf, Oranha, still remembered the distinct spiritual aura he felt from Baek Yu-seol.
The ‘Orb of Souls’ he carried had been with him for a month.
‘I can reveal Baek Yu-seol’s true identity.’
The school competition is a significant event where the most outstanding elite students from around the world gather.
Revealing Baek Yu-seol’s truth in such a setting…
It would not only captivate Flowerseorin but also bring substantial political, diplomatic, and image-related benefits.
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i ng m t l. o rg
-Is that so…?
Without revealing the true culprit, he vaguely explained his plan, and Flowerseorin accepted with a trembling voice.
-I will… leave it to you…
After saying that, Flowerseorin’s voice grew distant. To compose herself, she secluded herself again.
Feeling pity for her loneliness, Oranha knew it wasn’t yet time.
‘Soon, I will be allowed into that room.’
Thinking so, Oranha left, while Flowerseorin, left alone, stared blankly out of a small, tray-sized window.
‘Spirit Killer…
Her hatred had not subsided. She still wanted to catch the culprit.
However… she recently learned something more important.
‘Leafanel is alive.’
Thanks to someone’s grace, Leafanel was still alive.
She still couldn’t forget.
That night, when the moonlight illuminated the world clearly.
A small, young boy stood, dressed in a uniform.
When she briefly met his eyes, which resembled the universe, it felt as if she were being drawn in.
Thi s wa s c o pi ed fr o m k i ng m t l .or g
‘I must meet him.’
She didn’t know his identity or name.
But, somehow, she must meet him.
Beyond the grace of saving Leafanel, he… had perfect immunity to her curse.
‘…If someday, I can freely go into the outside world.’
She would search for him.
Thinking so, Flowerseorin closed her eyes.
Today… she felt particularly tired.
