“No, nonsense! Why is this going to him… .”

Jacob was so flustered that he couldn’t speak properly.

How much time did he spend to release and deal with the barrier of this magic tool?

That effort has turned into futility and it falls into the hands of that little boy.

“Why why? Of course it’s because I’m the real owner of this guy.”

Leo chuckled.

An orb of light floated above his right hand.

‘Finally got it.’

Orb of Light.

A powerful magic tool used by King Karst.

The effect was simple.

“Ice Spear.”

– Wedges!

As Leo muttered softly, the surrounding mana gathered and created a spear of cold air.

At first glance, there seemed to be no difference at all from the usual unfolding.

But there was a notable difference.

‘Casting time has been reduced by almost half.’

Casting speed doubled.

That was one of the signature features attached to the Orb of Light.

It hurts to talk about how important casting speed is to wizards.

Assuming that the amount of mana is supported, it is possible to increase the skill not by 2x, but by 4x or 8x.

Of course, I didn’t come this far just to speed up the casting process.

‘It would be nice to have one, but I didn’t have to come all the way to Gesen’s territory to get one.’

A feature unique to the Orb of Light that can never be found in other magic tools.

It was an ability that allowed him to use magic at a higher level.

“Light shower.”

Leo raised his voice and activated his magic.

Leo had a fairly large amount of mana thanks to the elixir, but so much mana was drained that even he stumbled.

Astonishment erupted from the front.

“4th, 4th class magic?”

“Lowering?”

Warlock and Drexla.

The two screamed at the same time.

A light shower spread by Leo.

It was a typical 4th class magic of the light attribute.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Jacob was shocked that the little boy had reached the level of the 4th rank called mage, which even he had not reached.

Drexla also knew that the prince she served was a genius, but was shocked to realize that she had reached the 4th rank.

But a bit of a surprise.

“Ku, keuaaagh-!”

A baptism of light fell from the sky and hit Jacob.

Small beams of light covered the area where he was, like a rain shower.

A divine blow with physical power!

It is a light attribute attack that is incompatible with black magicians.

Each ray of light touched my body, and I felt a heavy shock.

But the sense of desolation was greater than the physical pain.

‘Damn it. What kind of 4th class magic does that kid do… .’

Didn’t that little boy step on a place he couldn’t reach even though he tried so hard?

Feeling the absurdity of life, Jacob, his mind whitened, collapsed to the floor.

“hahahaha… mandible… .”

Right after that, Leo stumbled and breathed heavily.

His pale complexion looked as if he was about to collapse.

“Lowering!”

Drexla hurriedly approached Leo.

Knowing how weak Leo’s stamina was usually, his expression was all the more concerned.

Leo pointed at the fallen Jacob, refusing to help him.

“I’m fine, so arrest him first. I don’t want to wake up and make things complicated.”

The guy was unconscious and unconscious.

It would be difficult for him to come to his senses for the time being because he was hit with the opposite magic, even the 4th class magic, which was higher than his own skill, without any preparation, but he didn’t know it.

Preparation was necessary just in case.

“All right.”

Drexla nodded and walked over to Jacob.

His hands were tied behind his back, his feet were restrained, and he even put a gag in his mouth to keep him from doing anything stupid.

Seeing that scene, Leo sighed inwardly.

‘This isn’t a power that can be used casually.’

A deceptive quality like no other in the Orb of Light.

‘A magic tool that allows you to use magic that is one level higher than the user’s ability. As it is a fraudulent effect, the cost is not easy.’

Leo was currently a 3rd class wizard, but thanks to the magic tool’s effect, he was able to use 4th class magic.

However, the only magic that could be used like that was light attribute magic, and a huge amount of mana was consumed.

He is a master of using higher level magic without realizing it.

Thanks to the elixir, even Leo, who had quite a lot of mana, felt burdened.

but where is it

Compared to the advantages, those disadvantages could be easily ignored.

Because this wasn’t an ability that could only be used during combat.

‘Rather, it’s a trait that’s much more helpful during regular training than during combat.’

A magical tool that allows one to forcibly use magic of a higher level.

If you repeatedly observe and study the mechanism, you may be able to come up with a clue to the level above.

That was the reason why Leo, blocked by the 3rd class wall, came all the way to Gesen territory to find the Orb of Light.

‘Starting from today, I’m going into hard magic training!’

Leo gave a satisfied smile.

* * *

Leo and his party returned to the Gesen territory.

“Lowering! Thank you so much! If it wasn’t for the degradation, the territory would have been in great danger!”

The Marquis of Gesen ran out to the outside of the lord’s castle and welcomed them.

I was able to meet the time because I wrote a person in advance and sent a call.

His gaze turned to Jacob, who was stunned and tied to a rope.

“Is that the wicked warlock?”

“Yes, Marquis.”

The Marquis of Gesen’s eyes were filled with subtle anger.

To think that a black magician was hiding in the forest of Lyon, which he dared to say right in front of his nose!

It’s good that things worked out, but if he had invaded the territory by trickery or had Prince Leo’s body harmed, the situation would have been much worse.

Leo is a person who is evaluated as a talented person who will support the next generation country.

Already, the king and other nobles in the capital were expecting Leo’s future.

If he had been harmed in his own territory, his position would have been ridiculously narrow.

But anger is anger, and now it was first to express gratitude.

“Thank you again, low.”

“no. It was a natural thing to do as a member of the royal family.”

Leo nodded his head sternly.

Of course, in the eyes of the Marquis of Gesen, it looked more cute than dignified.

But I can’t help but laugh.

The Marquis of Gessen, who had a serious expression on his face, looked back.

There were several vassals who served him.

The Marquis raised his voice and issued an order.

“Listen! Recruit 1 Territory Knights and 2 Wizards. Beginning with the cave in the center of the Lyon forest that you said you found, search the entire forest thoroughly! There may be other black magicians or evil magic tools, so be prepared!”

An order to search the entire forest.

To think that only a few dozen people had to search the Lyon Forest, which was enormous in size.

It was obvious that they would suffer greatly, so the expressions of the knights and wizards were slightly trembling.

“Well. And no matter how much you search, you need guidance from someone who has been there in person, but in case you… .”

The gaze of the Marquis of Getsen turned to Leo.

Leo was stingy and said quickly.

“Lord Drexla knows the road to the center of the forest and the terrain inside the cave.”

His voice was quite urgent.

‘Do I go there again because I’m crazy?’

He was suffering from lack of stamina, but the moment Leo stepped out to guide him, he would lie down sick for at least three days.

“Lowering… .”

Drexla looked at Leo with slightly resentful eyes.

He was a human being too, so he didn’t want to do such a tiring large-scale search operation.

“Sir Drexla. Please take good care of me.”

Leo said apologetically, averting his gaze.

And in fact, there is no one else to go without him.

The only ones who caught the black magician this time were Leo, Menez, and Drexla.

Among them, the prince, Leo, and the small lord, Menez, were both titles and titles, and they were young, so going together was burdensome in many ways.

Drexla was the only person most likely to step up to this.

“All right.”

Finally, Drexla nodded slightly.

Leo patted him on the arm.

‘Oh, I’m sorry. I’ll have to take care of it when I go back.’

It’s such a hardship in one place, as if he dragged it.

I was pretty stung by my conscience.

When Leo returned to the royal castle, he thought that he would have to push Drexla hard.

“Then I will take care of the rest. Your Majesty, please go in and rest.”

The Marquis of Gesen looked at Leo and slightly lowered his head.

Leo’s eyes twinkled and he replied as if he had been waiting.

“I’ll trust you, Marquis.”

‘I was wondering what to do if I asked for more help, but it worked.’

By obtaining the Orb of Light, the objective here was achieved.

Leo was filled with thoughts of wanting to lock himself inside right now and use this.

“Take care, Marquis.”

“Yes, lower.”

Leo smiled and walked straight towards the room assigned to him.

* * *

That night.

The Marquis of Getsen had a private relationship with her son, Menez.

It was to ask how the journey with Leo was.

“Your Majesty was amazing! I don’t think I’ll ever see a wizard like that again in my entire life!”

Menez spat and vomited.

“It’s amazing that he’s a third-class wizard at such a young age, but the judgment he shows against monsters gave me goosebumps. How to show such coolness at that age… .”

Menez shuddered.

The appearance of Leo, who did not panic even after facing the goblin for the first time and spread magic.

And the extraordinary that did not miss a trap while advancing through the dark cave!

“father. Leo Jerk will definitely be a great person.”

“Um… .”

The Marquis of Gessen looked at his son.

He was the son who was called the best talent in this territory.

He said everything because he became a disciple of the Master of the Magic Tower only with his skills, not the background of So Young-ju.

So, to be honest, I was worried at first.

I wondered if Menez, who was the most outstanding in his age group, would despair when he saw Leo.

‘Fortunately, there doesn’t seem to be anything like that.’

Leo is much younger than Menez.

How dejected and jealous you would feel if you were pushed by such a child with your skills.

In particular, since Menez has been on a winning streak since he was young, he might be compared even more.

But when I heard about it, it wasn’t.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Menez became almost half of Leo’s follower.

“If my father had seen it, he would have said the same thing as me. Especially the highlight is when I met the black magician, but even with that evil guy in front of me… .”

The reason was simple.

‘People don’t get jealous when they see the sun in the sky.’

Incomparable violent talent!

That was what Leo had shown him, so Menez was only in awe.

“great. If you say that, I know that poor Leo is definitely extraordinary.”

The Marquis of Gessen nodded.

Then he said something out of the blue.

“Was Prince Hector 1 lowly 19 years old?”

“Yes… ? Ah yes. That’s right, but why are you asking that?”

Menez made a puzzled expression.

The Marquis of Gessen smiled softly.

“In the next 11 years, poor Leo will be 20 years old. And Hector will be 30 years old.”

“… … ?”

“Nineteen and nine is a huge difference, but twenty and thirty are worth trying.”

“… … !”

Menez made a shocked expression.

“Father, can’t you!?”

He must now understand what the Marquis of Gessen was trying to say.

The Marquis of Gessen grinned.

“How about we support lower Leo with all our might? Instead of being friendly with all the princes as we are now, we believe that Prince Leo will become the next king and give our allegiance.”

“… … !”

It had been a night of shocking talk in the office of one of the greatest lords in the kingdom.
