Chapter 100

“What?!”

“What do you mean!”

Among the mages who were shouting, the new mage who had recently joined the Magic Tower was sweating profusely.

“I just heard it from Louis on my way to the Magic Tower, so I’m not sure….”

“Then it must be true.”

A mage who personally received a mission from the Tower Lord and was an aide.

In other words, what Louis, the mage he trusted, said would be accurate.

“Is that all Louis said?”

“Yes. Yes, that’s right.”

The mages came out of the crucible of shock and tilted their heads at a word that didn’t fit at all.

“But a noble lady… does that mean she’s an influential figure enough for us to stop our research and come out?”

The mages looked at each other and nodded.

“Something inexplicable has happened even to him.”

It was clear that the world would not end for a while.

In the central square of the capital, the mages of the Magic Tower and the knights of the Imperial Palace, who were drafted at the request of the Crown Prince, were investigating the monster incident that occurred in the middle of the capital.

“Whew.”

Allen, who had just been knighted, sighed deeply and helped the mages with their chores.

“This is my first job? The mages should take care of anything related to monsters.”

Allen became dissatisfied with the fact that his life as a knight was quite different from what he had imagined. He thought he would be treated well once he became a knight, but the reality was completely different.

‘I have to endure it….’

Still, he couldn’t ignore the orders given by his superior. He might be beaten up under the pretense of training for disobeying orders.

Thinking of that, he sighed again.

“Whew….”

“Allen.”

“Yes!”

Allen tensed up at the sudden pat on his shoulder. His superior, who had appeared at some point, was smiling broadly with his bright blue eyes.

Allen, who almost gagged, barely managed to lift the corners of his mouth.

“What’s the matter?”

“No, nothing.”

His superior stared intently at Allen’s face and said in a strange voice.

“I was just curious if you were doing well, so don’t mind me.”

“Is that so?”

“Hmm. But, Allen.”

Allen gulped. Whenever his superior took his time like this, something always happened.

As expected, the words that followed were not off by a single inch.

“Is it okay for a new recruit to have such a deadpan expression?”

“No! I will work harder.”

Seeing this, his superior, with a satisfied look, patted Allen’s shoulder twice.

“Alright, then come here and help me. You don’t mind, do you?”

He said, looking around at the busy scene. In other words, he was telling Allen to do the work for him.

Allen swallowed his tears several times, but he quickly nodded as if nothing was wrong.

It would only be his own loss if he upset his superior.

“Understood!”

“Then work hard and report back to me later.”

His superior, as if he had been waiting for this, left everything to Allen and left his seat. He didn’t forget to give him a meaningful look before leaving.

Allen, who glared at the back of his superior as he disappeared in an instant, soon walked grumblingly to the scene where the investigation was in full swing.

‘Yeah, I have to do all the hard work, whatever.’

There was a reason why his superior had entrusted Allen with the work.

Usually, the knights of the imperial palace did not like to work with mages.

This was because mages were a private group and did not try to get along with anyone.

In particular, Allen’s superior thought that mages were lucky people who had risen to their position through their talents, and he disliked them intensely.

‘He must have some kind of grudge against them…’

However, he couldn’t treat the mages rudely either. They were noble mages who willingly helped out at the request of the imperial palace.

He also thought that if he met a bad-tempered mages, he would be bullied.

Allen kicked a stone hard to vent his anger. Thinking of his superior’s face.

Thud-

“Ugh!”

However, the stone flew somewhere and fell with a loud sound.

There was no problem up to this point. It was just a piece of debris rolling around on the ground.

Woo-oong.

However, the ground suddenly began to shake with a whooshing sound.

At the same time, the eyes of the mages who were conducting the investigation were focused on him.

“…?”
