Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent

196 – Precious Person.

“He is the princess’s enemy. The princess’s enemy….”

The eyes of the blood demons who were tightly gathered changed.

Sssss─!

Wings sprout from the backs of blood demons. The next moment, they rushed towards Flan like a huge flock of bats.

The crowd was so large that it was impossible to count, but Flan was calm.

Blue rays that extend only in straight lines.

The blue magic circle behind his back crushes his enemies without leaving any exception. The blood demons were reduced to powder and oxidized without being able to inflict any effective damage.

“Plan, if you kill those guys, their numbers will increase. So it’s better not to fight….”

Maiev muttered into Flan’s back. But her man only muttered softly.

“Maiev.”

“Yes?”

“Close your eyes and be quiet for a moment.”

Although she couldn’t understand Flann’s intentions, Maiev followed his instructions. Because she had no choice.

Susseu─

As I close my eyes, my senses become more sensitive and read the surrounding air currents.

Susseu─ Susseu─

Even at this moment, the murderous spirit unleashed by the blood demons was doubling in size. The amplified vitality creates an ominous air current that swirls around.

Life is approaching. An ominous feeling coming.

“When you open your eyes again, everything will be over.”

Flan’s voice erased them.

It was a tone that strangely gave a sense of stability.

However, the blood demons on the other side seemed to find Flan’s warning funny. On the contrary, it amplified its lethality, and it was just when Maiev felt that it was threatening.

Tick─.

The sun of the Chinese world has turned blue. There was no blind spot that Plan’s pure sunlight could not reach.

“Keeek—!”

“Kwaaak!”

The flesh of the blood demons melts under the blue sunlight. The screams become uncoordinated and create chaos. It was a merciless and one-sided battle.

“Maiev.”

Flan said.

“Open your eyes.”

At that stern tone, Maiev slowly pushed up her eyelids as if she were a creature that had just been born. The Chinese world that gradually came into view was truly peaceful.

After a while, Maiev lowered her head.

“Thank you.”

But she seemed still anxious and added a few words.

“I will never sit still in the void. If you regret helping me later, just tell me honestly. “I will leave on my own.”

For the first time in her long life, Maiev gave herself over to someone else. Of course, her anxiety will be great.

Instead of answering, I took out a teacup and placed it in Maiev’s hand. It was an item purchased at a store.

“Maiev.”

“Yes?”

“Okay, let’s get some coffee.”

Maiev politely accepted the teacup with both hands, but tilted her head as if she had difficulty understanding.

“Why is coffee suddenly….”

I pointed with my chin at the sunny landscape of the Chinese world.

“It’s pathetic to waste your mind on unnecessary worries on a good day. “Prepare some coffee for you to drink.”

Maiev answered.

“It’s not difficult to make coffee, but her brother…” .”

Her eyes land on her younger brother, who is lying on the floor. The tiny, gasping creature was in critical condition.

“That’s it, I won’t reverse the order.”

Only after making eye contact did Maiev seem to understand what I meant. It meant leaving her younger brother to me.

Finally she made her decision.

“Yes.”

◈

The next day, Hwajung World.

It has been a long time since the members of the magic department gathered together.

Usually, we train by taking advantage of the fact that time passes more slowly than in reality, but today, the reason for bringing them all together was a little different.

I opened my mouth quietly.

“Today is rest.”

At my words, Trixie, Yusiah, Becky, and Louis blink as if they find it hard to believe them.

Becky looked around.

“Rest, rest? “Did I hear that correctly?”

“The Faculty of Magic is back to normal, and the territory issue has been resolved safely. “I decided it would be better in terms of efficiency to take a break today.”

“What’s going on….”

Of course, the real reason was different.

Today, I planned to make Maiev meet with the members of the Magic Faculty. This is because Maiev must now be given a new life.

Trixie quietly looked around.

“But why is the energy of the blood demons so strong? To this extent, it feels similar to when I was on Lecheln Hill.”

“Ahahahaha, I guess I wasn’t the only one who felt the blood demon’s energy. “What happened here yesterday?”

Lewis chimed in.

Everyone seemed to be talking as usual, but they glanced at Maiev.

It was worth it.

Maiev was currently in her true form without any disguise. Her silver hair with a hint of purple was as smooth as silk, and her high nose and full lips were attractive enough.

Seeing someone like that sitting there seemed to be bothering her.

I introduced her to her first.

“I am a transfer student. “I will attend the academy with you and live as a representative of the magic department.”

“… !”

“It is also true that there was an invasion of blood demons into the Chinese world yesterday. “This guy took care of everything.”

Maiev looked at me with her eyes wide open, but I just quietly placed my index finger on her lips.

Because she couldn’t rebel against me, Maiev ultimately had no choice but to accept this situation.

“Ah, it’s Maiev. Transfer student…. Are you.”

I stepped back a little, made a chair, sat down, and watched the conversation while sipping coffee.

Of course, Becky, Trixie, and Yusia were looking at Maiev with slightly disapproving expressions. If I had to express that expression in words, it seemed like ‘checking.’

Trixie asked.

“What is your relationship with Plan?”

“There is no relationship whatsoever.”

Then Yusia grabbed Maiev’s hand.

“You were a great person… !”

Maiev looked at Yusia with a puzzled expression.

“….”

Afterwards, Yoo Sia gave several greetings as if she was happy to see me. Becky and Louise also joined in one after another.

I take a sip of coffee and continue watching.

Before I knew it, all the students gathered here were giving welcome greetings to Maiev. The awkwardness fades.

“What type of magic do you like?”

“Uh…. “It’s manipulation.”

“Wow, I didn’t know that part at all…” . How do you usually study? Memorization?”

She was Maiev, who couldn’t even speak properly at first, but soon she started listening to others with a very serious expression. She began answering the questions with sincerity.

Maiev’s younger brother was sitting on the floor because there was no chair. Myvi muttered, rolling her eyes.

“My sister is out of her mind and is writing this.”

She used an ignorant but easy method for Mybee. She shared my life force, and thanks to that, the girl was in very good spirits now.

“It must be confusing.”

“Over there.”

The little girl looked at me and asked.

“Me and my sister, why are we in Salingo?”

“It’s because I highly valued Maiev’s potential. “She will be a useful force in magical research in the future.”

“Research… ? The evening before… ?”

Myvi tilted her head as if she didn’t understand.

“Are we going to be able to live in the future?”

“Yes.”

“Refreshing….”

Tiny Mybi sipped water. From what she heard, water was the drink of choice for her blood demons.

“My sister, if she continues like this, she will become a terrible student.”

I nodded.

“It would be better to be a student than a slave to the void. My B.”

“Yes?”

“I hope you continue to get along well with Maiev. He didn’t seek happiness alone. “I wanted to be happy with you.”

Then Mybee smiled, showing his teeth.

“I understand.”

He holds out a glass of water to me, asking if I’ve seen anything before.

“For our Onni!”

I was dumbfounded, but willingly agreed. The tea cup and the water glass collide with each other making a sound.

“Don’t be frivolous. “It’s low class.”

“Kyungbakage?”

We all took a sip of our respective drinks.

A while later, when the representatives of the Faculty of Magic left for the training ground again, Maiev stood next to me with a puzzled expression on her face.

She blinked her eyes several times. As if she didn’t realize it, she squeezed and opened her own hand several times before opening her mouth.

“Plan.”

“Why?”

“It’s difficult to reveal our true colors and communicate. Everyone treats me like a model student…. “Is this right?”

I poured Maiev some coffee too.

“Take a sip first.”

“….”

Perhaps she was really nervous, Maiev drank her coffee as if she were drinking her water.

“You followed my instructions without a word, accepted my advice well, and carried out what I taught you without any problems. “There is nothing wrong with being called a model student.”

“Is that so…? .”

Maiev’s expression as she fiddled with the empty glass was exquisite. Her eyes blink constantly and the corners of her mouth twitch.

The complex emotions of feeling good, but not knowing what to do, and not feeling like it was real were all melted on her face.

“Over there.”

At that time, Maiev tugged on Maiev’s collar.

“Sister.”

“Huh?”

“Is this oppa supposed to call me that? “What are you doing?”

Then Maiev’s eyes fell on me.

But it was a slightly different perspective than before. She doesn’t look like she doesn’t know what to do, but has a determined look as if she has made a decision.

“Plan.”

“Actually, I lied to the other students earlier. “To commemorate the beginning of a new life, would it be okay if I told my younger brother the truth about myself?”

I nodded.

◈

Maiev squatted down and made eye contact with Maiev.

“My B. That man….”

She held her tiny little brother’s hand and whispered so softly that Flan couldn’t hear.

“She is a very precious person to her sister.”

“Precious person?!”

But as Mybee asked loudly, it became clear what she had said.

“… !”

Maiev turned around to face Flann like a child who had been caught in her misdeeds, and she looked into his eyes without the slightest distraction….

“… hahahaha, pahahahaha.”

For the first time in her life, she burst out laughing helplessly.

In the world of China, it was finally spring.

◈

It was that night that I encountered the Secretary of the Void.
