How to deal with wizards (1)

little rattle.

In the carriage heading to Dmitry.

Felix checked the documents prepared in advance.

‘Dmitry. A place called the holy land of blacksmiths in the Kingdom of Cairo.’

heard rumors

The quality of Cairo iron is very good, and he said that most of them came from Dmitry.

In fact, Felix was not a place to be very interested in.

The sword-wielding swordsmen sometimes hit the sword in Dmitry as if on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, but most wizards headed to Kronos.

13 horse towers on the continent.

Seven of them, including the Sky, were in Kronos.

Magic Tower is strictly classified as a neutral force, but by attracting a majority of Magic Tower to the Empire, Kronos was evaluated as a holy land for wizards.

Even Phoenix wanted a place in Kronos.

He only changed his options to Frank because his power was weak, but it was safe to say that the magic infrastructure that Kronos had constructed was the best on the continent.

On the contrary.

The Cairo Kingdom had no merit.

There was no magic tower in the kingdom, and the level of the institution that nurtures wizards in the kingdom itself was very low.

If it wasn’t for Roman Dmitry’s letter. I guarantee that Felix would never have set foot on the land of Cairo for personal business in his lifetime.

‘Roman Dmitry. A genius swordsman who appeared in the Kingdom of Cairo, he defeated Butler and became the youngest person to rank on the continent. He hasn’t played a proper ranking match yet, but there’s no doubt about his skills.’

the protagonist of the story.

Roman Dmitry’s fame was also a huge issue in the Franks.

Usually, the weaker countries barely have 2-3 people in the kingdom to rank on the continent, but Roman Dmitry defeated Butler at the age of only mid-20s.

There is a saying that people usually talk about.

From the 50th place on the demon (魔), they dared not be listed in a small country except the Empire. Perhaps for the first time, the appearance of a genius who could break down that boundary, even the Franks remembered only the name of Roman Dmitry.

So was Felix.

If it’s an invitation from Roman Dmitry.

I thought it was worth trusting.

In addition, according to what I found out, the Dmitry family is a wealthy man recognized even in Cairo.

‘Roman Dmitry placed an exceptional condition of 1000 gold per month as a condition of competing with himself. What do you think? I don’t know why he contacted me in a distant country, but as a Phoenix horseman, it is enough to secure only 6000 gold compensation for half a year. With that amount of money, I can afford to make a living for the time being.’

My mind was complicated.

to Dmitry.

If Matapju had not disappeared, there would be no reason for Felix to suffer while walking a long distance.

Shh.

pulled the curtains

timely.

Out the window, Dmitry’s figure began to appear.

* * *

In fact, at first there was a prejudice against Dmitry.

the realm of the frontier.

Cairo itself is not that great, so it was obvious that even in that place, it would be lax from one to ten.

But what?

From the start, the huge fortress wall caught our attention.

” Is this Dmitry?”

outer wall.

Dmitry mobilized the craftsmen of his family to build the strongest and highest wall in Cairo.

The gray walls of the castle overwhelm people just by looking at them, and the magic patterns that can be seen everywhere showed that they had finished preparing for the magic attack.

It was too much preparation to be a territory on the outskirts. Even though it was said to be the estate of a prestigious family in Cairo, there seemed to be no difference at all.

Besides.

“Stop.”

Over the huge steel gates.

Dmitry’s guards moved in unison and aimed their bows.

Even though it was not an exhibition or a general situation, they asked what was going on without any disturbance.

“Please state the purpose of your visit.”

“My name is Felix of the Phoenix Tower. I came to visit at the invitation of Roman Dmitry.”

“I’ll check it out in a moment.”

Felix got out of the wagon and revealed his identity.

The wait was short.

The guards had been given a guest list in advance, and when they checked Felix’s appearance from a distance, they opened the outer gate of the double-walled gate.

Even if an accident happens. He could only attack a few guards, but it seemed impossible to get inside and endanger Dmitry’s safety.

squeaky.

The gates were opened.

The guards proceeded to check in with a systematic movement.

Some checked Felix’s face once more, carefully examining the wagon for any items with impure intentions.

It was a scene of admiration.

In general, the territories on the outskirts tend to show a lax working attitude, let alone a system, but Dmitry’s guards were not vigilant.

It wasn’t just that.

As the guards walked, Felix’s eyes shone.

‘They’re not idiots. At least they have received enough training and have their own solid system in place.’

I was surprised

All.

Dmitry is famous for his blacksmithing skills.

The power of the family itself was not highly appreciated, but in a series of unexpected situations, the way he looked at Dmitry had to change a little.

After such a short but thick checkpoint. What greeted Felix as he entered was the neatly stretched road and the various types of buildings that climbed on both sides.

‘It is certainly. Dmitry is not a family that rots on the outskirts. The guards’ movements and solid walls are always ready for war, and the interior shows how much money the Dmitry family is investing in a good environment. Why are these families undervalued just because they are on the outskirts? After all, the rumors of the public cannot be trusted.’

suddenly.

The images before reaching the fortress wall came to mind.

Just a year ago, the shabby environment of the slum caught our attention, but now it has been transformed into a neat place.

After a major investment in iron mines.

Baron Romero took into account Roman’s opinion and actively began to improve the interior.

In addition to training the soldiers and repairing the fortress walls in preparation for an unforeseen war, it completely changed the living environment of the people of the territory.

In the past, Baron Romero was a good lord. However, he did not have much experience to take care of the shortcomings carefully, and Roman’s advice suggested the path for Dmitry in the future.

only one year.

Dmitry has changed.

Felix, who had just set foot on Dmitry, could only think of Dmitry in front of him as his original form.

‘Maybe I underestimated Dmitry.’

The more towards introspection.

Felix’s expectations were also inflated.

* * *

It was as expected.

The moment I met Roman Dmitry.

From the beginning of Dmitry, I realized that the inflated expectations were not wrong.

“This is Roman Dmitry.”

A strong voice with a strong appearance.

Having simply asked for a handshake, Felix was overwhelmed by Roman Dmitry’s momentum.

‘It’s not an ordinary person.’

He hid his expression.

This meeting has a purpose.

Since the deal hasn’t been made yet, I didn’t want to show a sign of excitement already.

“I’m not going to go round and round for nothing. First of all, please state clearly whether the conditions stated in the letter are true. If you promise it, why not discuss the details in earnest from then on?”

It was the first thing I said as soon as I sat down.

1000 gold per month.

It was the condition that drew Felix’s steps.

If there was even a slight exaggeration, no matter what he said, Felix was going to leave.

said Roman.

“As stated in the letter, our terms are clear. I will give you 1000 gold every month, a total of 6000 gold for 6 months, as a condition of playing against my opponent every day. I am also willing to pay first on the first day of each month if necessary. 1000 gold is not a small amount of money, but I think it is a sign of trust.”

” It’s a really good deal.”

advance payment.

It is a word that builds trust.

I said I’d give you money first, but it can’t be a lie.

I trusted Roman Dmitry.

I understand that they will pay a huge amount of money to compensate me, but the problem is I couldn’t understand why they were doing that.

“I don’t really understand. There is no need to spend such a huge amount if the purpose is simply to compete. There will be many wizards who claim to be opponents of the match even if they only use one hundred gold. By the way, why did you make such a proposal to the Phoenix Horse Tower? I want to know why they even pointed me out even when they offered a huge sum of 1000 gold as a reward.”

Roman is.

Definitely hoping for Felix.

Roman did not hide the truth in his eyes looking for the answer.

“If you ask me like that, I won’t go back and tell you. Although the Phoenix Horse Tower has been faltering recently, even when the Magic Tower was still alive, Felix-sama was called one of the continent’s greatest talents. 5 circles at the age of 30. In particular, I heard that the fire magic unique to the Phoenix Horse Tower is the most aggressively powerful. 1000 gold. It’s not a lot of money by the standards of the horse tower, but the Phoenix horse tower is not in good shape, so we decided that we could buy Felix’s time. That’s it. I was hoping for the best wizard at a reasonable price, and that was Felix-sama.”

It was an honest statement.

It was a good word to say that it was excellent.

The remarks facing the shaking reality of the tower made me laugh.

“I don’t expect much from Felix. However, please do your best. I will not take any responsibility for it, whether I get hurt or die in the process. Doing your best in every moment. If you promise me one thing, it will never happen that Dmitry breaks his deal with Felix.”

at that word.

Felix showed a strange expression.

telling you to do your best.

It somehow sounded like Roman Dmitry was sure of his own victory.

Is that so?

“Really, will you not regret it?”

provocative remarks.

Felix looked sharp.

moved place.

Dmitry’s gymnasium.

While moving, I asked Roman again, but Roman Dmitry still said that he would do his best.

‘Roman’s sincerity is one of two things. Is it really sincere, or is it just that you look down on a wizard.’

any choice.

I didn’t like it that much.

His magic wasn’t easy enough to handle every day for six months.

said Roman.

“I will give in advance. Attack first.”

It was a speech that ignited the wick.

Even if it wasn’t, Felix showed a cool smile when he said that he would yield even the first strike in a situation where his pride was hurting.

“Well, I won’t give up.”

raised mana.

6000 gold.

It was the money needed for the tower.

However, he did not want to sell the pride of the Phoenix Horse Tower at a cheap price.

‘The first fight will begin by breaking Roman Dmitry’s nose.’

Hwareuk.

gurgling.

A fire broke out.

The mana wave that Felix had caused turned into a powerful flame before long.

“Fire Lance.”

3 circle fire magic.

A flame in the form of a spear exploded.

A powerful flame attacked Roman Dmitry as it was, and Roman avoided the attack with a light movement, as expected.

It was a deliberately abandoned attack.

As pride did not allow it to gain an overwhelming advantage with a first attack, he induced the opponent to evade with a fire lance and attacked in earnest.

“Inferno.”

gurgling rumbling.

The fire around it grew stronger.

It sucked in the blazing flames and erupted in all directions, and this time it was unavoidable and swept around the surroundings.

The circle turned tight.

Seeing Roman Dmitry moving quickly to avoid the flames, Felix controlled the ‘fire’ to follow Roman’s movements relentlessly.

A flame that moves like a living creature from all sides.

While pressing Roman’s movements with one head, he prepared a new attack with the other.

“Fire Wave.”

Hwareuk.

gurgling gurgling.

The flame exploded.

The flames rushing in like a wave seemed to drive Roman into a corner this time.

tap.

with an intermittent difference.

Roman escaped the flames.

It was a shocking move.

Roman Dmitry was surprisingly quick to dodge the magic, but even that counted.

‘It’s over.’

Memorize.

The magic that had been stored in advance erupted.

“Rune flare.”

4 circle magic.

It was a powerful room.

I was sure that Roman Dmitry, who had lost his way to escape, could be completely finished with this one shot.

In fact, he could have used 5 circle magic.

However, I thought that Roman Dmitry would really die if I did, so I lowered the power a little on purpose.

Quang!

Curl rumble!

The magic worked.

With the flames spreading in all directions, there was no way for Roman to escape.

finished.

Even an Aura Swordsman would not be able to survive if he received this level of magic orthodoxly.

It was the price of self-esteem.

If he had chosen himself as the opponent of Dalian, at least he shouldn’t have said he was sure of his victory.

But then.

sure-

The fire roared.

Through the blazing flames.

Roman Dmitry, engulfed in flames, rushed towards Felix.
