The Northern Grand Duke’s Crazy Son-in-Law Chapter 90

< Private Tutoring >

‘The Tower of Nothingness.’

The Tower of Nothingness was the tower that took charge of the middle space among the four towers first built by the first wizard.

It was now a story that had become a legend.

I never thought that something that I couldn’t find even when I searched for it like that would show up like this all of a sudden.

‘It was a good decision to come north.’

“······How do you know about the magic of karma? The magic tower of karma should have burned down long ago!”

The fox mask’s reaction was quite sharp. The magic of karma seemed to be heavier than expected.

“I got a gift.”

“That’s nonsense!”

“Isn’t there also a tower of nothingness that fell into emptiness like this?”

At Galahad’s remark, the fox mask made a squeaking sound. Its actions were truly fox-like. A fox that didn’t know where to run.

“Tell me where you got it.”

The fox mask spoke in a lowered voice. I still couldn’t feel anything from the fox mask. I couldn’t even see the thing because of the mask.

To give a rough guess-.

‘You’re looking at my head.’

Are you thinking of blowing off my head? – Galahad turned the hellfire around slightly.

“Didn’t I tell you? I received a gift.”

Galahad raised the corners of his mouth.

[Trash? How rude of you to say that. I worked so hard to get it.]

It was a strange artifact carved into stone, not a magic book, and at first I thought it was trash because the damage was so bad.

Even Galahad had to hold on to it for quite some time. If it weren’t for the Information Agency, it would have been difficult to interpret.

Eventually I learned Hellfire, but it wasn’t a particularly useful spell.

What Galahad needed as an agent was fast and quiet magic.

Hellfire was definitely powerful, but it was too slow and required a lot of concentration. It wasn’t a very good spell for an agent.

That’s why it wasn’t a very popular magic during my time as an agent.

Galahad slid the hellfire out. The fox mask squirmed and stepped back. Galahad watched the unusual reaction.

“You are afraid of hellfire.”

“You’re crazy. It’s strange that you’re not afraid when you’re being showered with hellfire!”

The fox mask shouted sharply. In a way, it was an obvious thing to say, but the opponent was a fox mask that could move through space at will.

There was no way this slow-burning hellfire could be dangerous.

The fox mask stepped back, completely contrary to the way it had been moving around the space excitedly just a moment ago.

that-.

“Ah, that’s it.”

The fire of hell burned everything.

It was literally everything.

chamberlain-.

“It also burns space. That’s why people are reluctant to use space magic around here.”

At Galahad’s words, the fox mask suddenly stopped. There was no particular reaction.

“That’s funny.”

The area around the hellfire swayed violently. The hellfire shook violently. The swaying became a little stronger.

“hmm?”

The fox mask tilted its head.

The swaying grew more violent. The hellfire shook violently.

The size of the hellfire has gotten a little smaller.

The fox mask clicked its tongue openly.

“Isn’t this hellfire?”

The fox mask’s head was turned to the opposite side.

“Hellfire isn’t this small. It wasn’t even pushed back this far in the first place. There’s no way a wizard would use Hellfire in the first place, right?”

The fox mask’s speech became faster and faster. Soon, the fox mask’s head suddenly stopped.

“This is the hellfire I created.”

“So you revised it yourself?”

“Restoration would be a more appropriate expression than revision.”

Ha! The fox mask smiled pointedly.

“How ridiculous. I don’t know how you managed to find traces of karma, but you created hellfire from there-? Are you the first wizard?”

“Sorry, but I’m young.”

The fox mask’s laughter suddenly stopped. There was a moment of silence. Galahad felt a chill run down his neck.

“What the hell are you?”

There was no trace of laughter in the fox mask’s voice, unlike before.

“Didn’t I tell you? I’m the special forces captain Galahad. Your memory is not that great.”

The fox mask didn’t smile this time.

“Yeah, are you interested?”

“Interested? Huh!”

The fox mask snorted loudly.

“Do you think the magic of karma would be interesting? You don’t know what you’ve just done.”

“so-.”

Galahad cut off the fox mask’s words.

“Should I change it?”

There was a moment of silence. Galahad calculated, looking at the black part of the fox mask.

Hellfire also burns space. When it goes wrong, it pushes hellfire into the place where the gaze is likely to be directed.

At that moment, the fox mask snorted.

“It’s funny. But-.”

There was a violent commotion around the hellfire. The hellfire shook dangerously. Its heat was fading.

Mana was twisted, and a groan escaped Galahad’s lips.

Within-.

“That’s a little presumptuous.”

The hellfire has gone.

A twist of mana struck Galahad. His body swayed violently. Galahad grabbed the golden staff to steady himself.

‘Wow. Space magic-.’

He examined the fox mask, coughing repeatedly.

“It’s okay. If you do that, you can be arrogant. But this isn’t something you can learn by teaching it. Even if you do learn it-.”

The fox mask’s voice was full of ridicule.

“You, as a human, can’t endure it.”

The fox mask slowly turned. It did not stop at ninety degrees, but did a smooth circle.

“You’re flexible.”

The fox mask stopped with a snap at Galahad’s praise.

A deep abyss located at the eye area of ​​the mask stared at Galahad.

Galahad lowered his head and brought his fox mask closer. He turned to face him and raised the corners of his mouth.

“Are you afraid that I might learn something? Like this.”

There was a brief silence.

Foot. The fox mask smiled slightly.

“You keep making childish provocations.”

At that moment, I felt a burning pain in my shoulder. A small hole was created in my shoulder.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The Egg of Pain trembled violently. The fear spread.

Galahad recalled the pain from just now. It was fleeting, but it was clearly felt on the surface. The space had not simply been erased.

“Oh, okay, I’ll give you a chance.”

“opportunity?”

“I can’t just leave the ruler alone. I’ll give you a fair chance to compete. After the sun rises ten times.”

I was already planning to deal with the ruler, but you even gave me directions yourself-. How can you be this kind? Galahad nodded.

“Are you even giving me directions? That’s quite kind of you.”

The fox mask paused for a moment and then continued.

“It’s no use hiding behind the Archduke or Adriana. You’ll just be a huge nuisance. It’s not like you can’t touch them just because they’re next to you.”

The fox mask was already five steps behind.

‘Now that the hellfire has been cleared, you can use space magic again.’

Galahad thought back to what he had just seen.

At that moment, the fox mask raised its hand.

“Why did you take that?”

The fox mask asked, pointing to Galahad’s golden staff.

“It’s a souvenir.”

The fox mask laughed harshly at Galahad’s light answer.

“It’s still fun.”

The fox mask disappeared without a trace, just like when it appeared.

Galahad sprinkled his mana again. The fox mask was no longer there.

Only then did Galahad let out a ragged breath. He leaned against the golden staff and staggered.

I felt exhausted because I had caused hellfire by force.

Galahad leaned against the golden staff and put a cigarette in his mouth. The lemon scent spread deeply.

Only then did the boiling mana stabilize a little. Galahad took a deep sip of his incense and thought back to the fox mask he had just seen.

The guy wearing a stuffed fox mask was clearly a wizard from the Tower of Nothingness.

If not, there’s no way I could use spatial magic.

the problem is-.

‘He’s not a wizard, he’s a demon.’

The ability he used was closer to power than magic. But it wasn’t power.

It’s like-.

‘It feels like magic added to power.’

Galahad’s eyes sank.

It was clear that he was from the Tower of Nothingness. But he was from the Demon Tribe. It didn’t make sense.

That’s because the wizard became a demon.

The magician of the magic tower, founded by the first magician, who is called the worst traitor to mankind, has become a demon.

‘This doesn’t feel good.’

Galahad blew out a long puff of smoke.

The situation was quite chaotic.

However, what was important now was not the bastard’s identity.

To Galahad, the spatial magic the bastard had shown was more important.

The fox mask said that you can’t learn by teaching. He probably meant it.

Spatial magic was a ignorant and destructive magic called primitive magic.

In contrast, the current magic was, as the bastard said, ‘revised’ to suit humans.

Since it was something that belonged to the Demon Tribe and was adapted to humans, its power was bound to be reduced. However, its stability and usability were, needless to say, reduced.

It may be impossible for current wizards to learn primitive magic.

However, it was Galahad who had already restored the hellfire.

Showing it to Galahad five times was like giving him personal lessons.

There were quite a few clues. The earlobes, the holes in the shoulders, and even the fires of hell.

‘How kind.’

The magic left a trace. Even if the bastard’s spatial magic was close to power, it was inevitable that traces would remain.

The marks left on his body were even more effective, which was why Galahad preferred to experiment on his own body.

‘after-.’

Galahad clenched his teeth and put his finger into the hole.

A terrible pain struck him. His mind became sharper. Galahad slowly moved the mana contained in his fingers, examining the traces.

The wound was clean. It was as if the space had been erased.

Galahad didn’t give up and focused on the wound. He thought back to when the hellfire had disappeared. The commonality between the two was-.

‘It was air.’

In magic, air served as a medium. It was hard to imagine that such air had properties.

However, now we were faced with clear evidence.

Galahad’s thoughts continued to revolve around.

‘how?’

I kept guessing. I imagined. I calculated. And-.

It was derived.

‘like this.’

Galahad snapped his fingers.

The space a little further away was slightly distorted.

It was just a tiny crack in the moment-.

It was an obvious twist.

‘This was it.’

The corners of Galahad’s mouth went up deeply.

****

‘Why haven’t you contacted me?’

Palho bit his fingernails in anxiety.

There were quite a number of wizards gathered.

The wizard had a quirky personality. No, it couldn’t be otherwise. The wizards who came to the North were the ones who had been pushed out from the center. So when those guys gathered together, problems were bound to arise.

The number of mercenaries brought by the wizards was also considerable. The number of mercenaries combined with the wizards was considerable.

It was a threat even to the 7th Battalion.

But the reason the wizards remained silent was simple.

‘Because I don’t trust other wizards.’

I was worried about the back of my head. From the beginning, wizards were a selfish bunch who only cared about themselves.

If nothing else comes up, I think I can hold out a little longer.

‘Yeah, something’s going to happen.’

at that time-.

“Ugh… we’re in big trouble!”

An urgent report came from his subordinate. Palho felt a strange sense of unease.

“The wizards are moving to the Magic Training Center!”

“Moving? Isn’t it time yet?”

“that is······.”

Palho frowned at his subordinate’s indifferent reaction.

“Speak quickly.”

“Chief Corton opened the 7th Battalion’s main gate secretly and···.”

“You opened it secretly?”

“Chief Corton said he couldn’t do this ignorant pickaxe thing anymore and led the wizards to the 7th Battalion. Since Corton is in charge of entry today, he’s already passed through the main gate and is heading to the Magic Training Center-.”

Palho’s face crumpled at the following report.

‘Cotton! This piece of trash! He’s always going to cause trouble!’

He had the chance to become the president of the society, but he rushed in with the wizards who gathered because they didn’t like picking with pickaxes. What a piece of trash he is!

However, I felt a strange sense of discomfort.

Even if Corton was in charge, there’s no way the 7th Battalion Commander would have left it alone, right?

There were quite a few gathered, but if we fought with our castles together, we wouldn’t be pushed back like this.

It was so fast. It was like a door was opened.

‘Ah, I guess it’s Galahad.’

It was clear that Galahad had given separate orders.

He probably told me to open it wide like last time. The reason was obvious.

‘These kids can’t use magic in the Demon Realm anyway, right?’

The concentration of mana in the Demon Realm was incomparably higher than in the North.

Mana always flows from places of low concentration to places of high concentration. If the concentration is too high, like in a magic mirror, the magical mana is dispersed.

It was clear that nine out of ten wizards would not be able to use magic in the Demon Realm.

Is there anything more useless than a wizard who can’t use magic?

the problem is-.

‘···Corton would know this too, right?’

Palho was deeply impressed.

*

“Follow me, yaaaah!”

Corton shouted at the top of his lungs. Behind him were a crowd of wizards.

With so many wizards under his command! Corton felt an indescribable thrill.

When Corton heard that the president of the society would be chosen with a pickaxe, he also diligently dug around at first.

Then Corton realized something important.

What he wanted was not a fair opportunity, but a quick and easy promotion!

‘I want to become successful without working hard!’

However, the changed system made that impossible.

To become the president of the society, you had to work hard and sweat. It was a very vicious system.

The opportunity finally came to Corton, who had been complaining of his pain. A crowd of wizards gathered, increasing conflicts, and sharply conflicting desires!

‘The time has come!’

Corton bribed the soldiers to back down. The normally rough soldiers backed down easily. Even the company commanders were moved.

It was proof that Corton’s plan was perfect.

We soon arrived at the Demonic Realm Training Center. It was usually the most heavily guarded place, but today there was no security at all.

“Why is it so sloppy? Isn’t this a trap?”

A small question arose from behind. It was a mercenary brought by the wizard. Corton did not care.

Because the moment a wizard sees the magic mirror, he won’t have any questions.

In fact, the wizards did not stop, but ran even faster.

We entered the Magic Training Center. The wizards let out different exclamations. One of them knelt down and kissed the ground.

Corton stood proudly at the forefront.

“I led you here! If you are a wizard, you must feel it! The power of this place! The possibilities! Trust me and follow me!”

There was no expected reaction. The wizards were all busy being moved.

The moment Corton was about to speak again-.

“Close the door.”

A brief command was heard. The gates were roughly shut.

Before they knew it, they were surrounded by naked soldiers. They were men with only weapons hanging from their waists. Surrounded by naked men, they felt quite oppressed.

Even the opponents were company commanders. Behind them was even a captain.

‘Why are the 7th Battalion company commanders here?’

Those company commanders were perverts who rolled around naked at the Demonic Realm training camp every day. Their skills were beyond words.

but-.

“We have more numbers! We will show you the greatness of magic!”

Corton shouted bravely. It was the spirit of a president of the society.

the problem is-.

“Huh? Mana isn’t moving-.”

“This… This concentration is so thick. There’s no way I can use magic!”

“It’s a trap! It’s a trap! What the hell! What kind of a bastard-.”

The point was that wizards couldn’t use magic.

‘Aha! That’s it! Oh my god!’

Corton realized too late. He couldn’t use magic at high mana concentrations!

at that time-.

“That was a great performance.”

The captain patted Corton on the shoulder.

‘···performance?’

Corton, who had been hesitating for a moment, soon puffed out his chest.

“Hahaha! You idiots! You all fell for my trick!”

Corton’s voice was full of sincerity.
