How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives

“Here it is. The place where the evil wizard opened the space that leads to the demonic land.”

Vivian, the fairy queen, escorted Leo to the back door of the house.

When I opened the door, what I saw was a crack in the air, but beyond that, I could see the dull land.

An ominous aura was emanating from within.

“Is this the devil’s land?”

“right. Isn’t it desolate?”

“Yes. Not only does it make you feel better, it actually makes you feel unwell.”

“I can’t help it because I’m exposed to demonic energy just by looking at it.”

Vivian shrugged.

[Active Ice – Eagle]

Leo created the ice eagle again.

The eagle flapped its wings and flew around.

The fairies huddled together in the queen’s house opened their eyes wide as if they were curious.

“Wow. leak!”

“Idiot. That’s called an eagle.”

“Eagle?”

“yes. A bird with big wings and sharp beaks and claws!”

“So the eagle is a bird made of ice?”

“that’s… right!”

The fairy who was explaining was vague, as if she didn’t know that much.

Fairy Queen Vivian smiled and hugged the fairies.

“That’s not it. That’s an eagle created by that human magic.”

“wow. Can humans do that?”

“Not all humans are like that. That person is amazing.”

“Interesting!”

Listening to the fairies’ conversation, Leo checked the condition of the eagle.

I closed my eyes and focused on the mental connection.

After a while, Leo’s vision changed.

He was looking at the world through the eyes of an eagle.

“Then, I’ll blow it up like this.”

“Joe, fine.”

Vivian nodded with a nervous expression.

If, as Leo said, the eagle can scout without taking any damage, the problem in the fairy forest will be solved.

Pak! And the eagle flew to the devil’s land.

An eagle of translucent ice glides through the dull world.

“Mmm.”

“Why!? What’s wrong?”

Leo groaned and Vivian asked in surprise.

“The eagle created with magic is also affected by demonic energy. The surface of the ice is crumbling little by little.”

“Well, then… !”

“I think it can last for about an hour.”

1 hours!

Vivian clenched her fists.

“That’s enough!”

If you can scout for up to an hour with a flying eagle, you will be able to find the core that maintains this space unconditionally.

Leo scouted for an hour, and when the eagle was reverse summoned, he summoned it again and sent it flying to the devil’s land.

After several hours had passed, Leo stopped summoning.

he said with a tired sigh.

“Spirit and mana consumption is severe. I guess I’ll have to stop here for today.”

“great job. Thank you so much!”

Vivian held his hand tightly.

“Have you had any results yet?”

“Where is that! There is hope for us too!”

Tears glistened in her eyes.

Until now, I had been unable to do anything and was in despair in the face of death approaching every moment, but I was thrilled just to have a tiny bit of hope.

* * *

Finding the nucleus was not something that could be solved quickly.

It’s because you have to constantly search the land of demons with an eagle.

So Leo and Celise decide to stay over at Vivian’s house for a few days.

Whenever Leo had a spare moment, he flew an eagle to the Demon Earth to try to search for it.

“How are you today?”

“Similar. I’m looking hard, but it doesn’t work.”

“Do not work too hard.”

Vivian patted Leo on the back.

Over the past few days, the two have become quite close.

Leo wanted to get close to the fairy queen because she knew she was pure and strong, and Vivian also wanted to get close to Leo, who had the potential to save the fairies.

The two of them agreed, so they decided to call each other comfortably and stay friends.

“Would you like to eat this? It’s made with honey brought by my children.”

“Ah, thank you.”

When Vivian handed over the honey tea, Leo lightly took a sip.

As soon as I drank it, my mind was brightened and refreshed.

Leo was quite surprised.

‘It’s also a fairy forest. Roughly made honey tea has the same effect as a potion.’

‘Active Ice – Eagle’ consumed a lot of mental power.

So the longer I searched, the more I had a throbbing headache, but it got better after I drank a cup of honey tea.

This is why wizards go crazy when they see the fairy forest.

However, Leo also saw the fairy forest as a treasure island, so he had nothing to say.

“By the way, who created this space?”

Leo asked.

At a cursory glance, I could have guessed that the black magician had done it, but I had to listen to the details.

“I don’t know the details because the face is covered. Other than being a human and a fairly skilled black mage.”

said Vivian with an angry expression.

“One… A black mage invaded our fairy forest about a year ago. By human standards, it was about the 6th class.”

“Class 6? He’s a pretty strong guy.”

“yes. He looked at this place like a treasure trove.”

“… sorry.”

“yes? Why are you apologizing?”

“no. Keep talking.”

“There is nothing to talk about. He tried to destroy the forest and kidnap our children, so I stepped in and fought.”

The 6th class black mage is strong, of course, but it was impossible to defeat the queen in the fairy forest.

“It seemed like he decided he couldn’t win after fighting for a while, so he suddenly opened a space in my house that connects to the land of demons. Then he tossed the nuke out into space somewhere.”

“Did you send that bastard alive?”

Vivian shrugged.

“I had to stop the demonic energy spreading from beyond space. I don’t know, but my children could die the second they were exposed, so I couldn’t help it. In the meantime, he succeeded in escaping.”

As a queen, it was more important to protect the fairies than to kill intruders.

After hearing Vivian’s words, Leo compared them with the information he knew.

‘At the time I was playing the game, I couldn’t enter the fairy forest until years later. At that time, the queen was Daisy, not Vivian.’

That meant Vivian would have been dead within the next few years had it not been for Leo.

Leo asked curiously.

“Is this Magi that deadly?”

“It’s deadly for my kids, but not to that extent for me. If you put your mind to it, you can endure it for over 10 years.”

“Uh, then… .”

“But I had no intention of just holding on until you came.”

Vivian shrugged.

“Then, if I die, my children will be annihilated, so how can I stay still? In fact, sooner or later, I was going to leave for the land of demons myself. To destroy the nucleus.”

“You are a queen. Can I go like that?”

“Daisy, I have a princess who is my heir. I was going to give that child the position of the next queen.”

When Vivian finished speaking, a fairy with sky blue hair and sky blue eyes flew in just like her.

“hello. My name is Daisy.”

She held her skirt with both hands and bowed politely.

“nice to meet you.”

Leo clapped his hand.

The queen he knew was the Daisy now in front of him.

Is it because she is a princess?

Unlike the other spooky fairies, Daisy was calm and well-behaved.

‘Then in the future I knew. In the end, Vivian succeeded in entering the land of demons and destroying the core.’

In this way, Vivian would have died protecting the fairy forest, and Daisy would have become queen.

‘no wonder. It was so difficult to go on a quest that was recognized by the fairies as a human character. It deserved it.’

Since the previous queen died at the hands of humans, fairies have no choice but to be hostile to humans.

However, since he came here, it was just a story of a future that was all gone.

* * *

Leo searched the land of demons for ten days.

The search was slower than expected.

It was because the time to keep the eagle was not that long, and the consumption of mental energy was severe, so the pure search time was not that long.

Sitting in front of the cracked space with his eyes closed, Leo searched the demonic land.

In that state, he searched for an hour, and when the eagle was reverse summoned, he recovered his mental strength and mana in the same posture.

Then, when he recovered to some extent, he tried to search again.

At first, Celise stayed by Leo’s side, but Leo kicked her out.

There’s nothing to attack, so why escort?

There is no such thing as inefficient.

So, after that, Celise devoted herself to swordsmanship training in the village of fairies (at first glance, it looked like an empty field).

“human! You wield a sword!”

“Kyaaak! super fast! Awesome!”

“They call that a knight!”

“Article? I’ll do it too! Article!”

“You can’t because you use a spear!”

“Huh… .”

The fairies of the village were very fond of Celise.

I don’t know if it’s because she’s a guest or because she’s beautiful, but Celise looked happy when she saw the fairies paying attention to her.

Those were peaceful days.

“Whoa… .”

Leo, who was searching, opened his eyes.

Vivian served honey tea as if she had been waiting.

“great job.”

“Thank you for preparing like this every time.”

“What. It is a guest who helps us, and this much is natural.”

Vivian watched Leo as he searched.

At first, I sent her to do something like Celise, but she didn’t listen.

She silently watched Leo and assisted him like this whenever he took a break.

“But you woke up early this time? It’s only been 30 minutes. Got a problem with the eagle?”

“yes.”

“What problem?”

“I found the nucleus.”

“… … !”

Vivian opened her eyes wide in surprise.

“uh!? Gee, really?”

“yes. A dark red orb the size of an adult human male’s fist. Right?”

“right!!”

“I found that.”

Leo nodded.

Vivian had a half-tearful expression on her face.

“Three, my God… ! Are you really looking for that… .”

“It’s not over yet. I have a problem.”

“What?”

“I can’t break it with my eagle.”

The ice eagle made with magic had nothing to do with search and reconnaissance, but it had almost no attack power.

I tried pecking at the hard core with my beak and hitting it with my claws, but it didn’t budge.

“So I thought about carrying it all the way here, but the core stuck to the floor and couldn’t move. I guess I can’t move it.”

Then he had to go and destroy it himself, but it was impossible even for Leo to enter a space overflowing with demonic energy.

“Nope. I have a way.”

Vivian ran to the room in the corner of the house.

“I’m sure I put it here… Ah, I found it!”

After rummaging through the junk inside for a while, she brought out a silver marble the size of a fingernail.

“what’s this?”

“I made it a long time ago, but it has wind magic built into it. It is weak enough to be broken with an eagle’s beak.”

“Break this down next to the nuclear one?”

“yes. Instead, the eagle will be reverse-summoned as well, but… It’s fine?”

“Of course it’s fine.”

Leo nodded.

The eagle reverse summoning has happened countless times over the past ten days.

Leo immediately summoned the ice eagle again.

It was possible enough because I reverse summoned it a little while ago with some spare energy left.

He controlled the eagle to bite the silver orb and sent it to the nuke.

Knowing the location, it was easy to get there.

And according to Leo’s will, the eagle broke the marble.

– Knock!

At the same time, a huge wind began to blow.

The wind as sharp as a blade shook all directions and ripped the earth apart.

– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

‘Why is this so powerful?’

Leo, who watched the scene until the eagle was reverse summoned, was shocked.

I heard it was wind magic, so I thought it was moderately wind cutter, but this is almost at the level of 5th or 6th class magic.

No matter how hard the core is, there is no way it can withstand this front.

– Kwajik!

At the same time as the eagle was reverse summoned, the core was shattered.

Leo opened his eyes.

“after. finished.”

– Ugh!

The space in front of him, connected to the demonic land, was gradually getting smaller.

After a while, the space disappeared as if it had never happened.

Leo looked at Vivian.

“How do you feel?”

“Ahh… .”

She was crying profusely.
