Special Chapter Elizabeth Lonelight Perspective _______________ As soon as I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a glass containing purple drink. And then, Owari, who was in front of me busy with other stuff, reached out to me and said with a blank face. “Drink this, Elizabeth. This will help you regain some of your health,” He then pushed the vial towards me and ordered me around like a subject of his experiments. There were different potions existing in this world: blue potions gave magic casters mana, red vials gave stamina and health, and others just… there. Naturally, I didn’t accept it. I let out a snicker and pushed the glass away from my face. I kept staring at the concoction Owari had made, without daring to touch or go near the glass. I stated that the lavender-like potion Owari made for me was something… “ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!” The words escaped my mouth. “What is this? Is this some kind of joke? Just because you defeated me, that doesn’t mean I will s
Special Chapter Elizabeth Lonelight Perspective _______________ I heaved out a weary sigh and resumed, “In any case, if I don’t see any signs of those things happening to me, those options you’ve said are not real. But if I find out whatever you’re saying holds some truth to it, I’ll reconsider and talk to you again…” “I suggest you do that with haste… Well, I don’t really care about your well-being, honestly. If you become a weapon, waste your life to those greedy scumbags who want nothing more but to benefit themselves, then be my guest. It would just be unfortunate for me not having to grasp whatever knowledge you possess with you, Elizabeth. Don’t you want to know the extent of your powers? If we can manage to dig deep through your spell, maybe we can conjure some magic that nobody can ignore. Hence, being powerful yourself can save most people.” “Anyhow, your first and final clue should be the conversation you would be having with the three rules of this Kingdom… which will
Back to Owari’s Perspective_______________Elizabeth took her sweet time in talking with the three judges. There was also a possibility that those three judges found the young woman attractive and became one of their concubines… Kidding aside, within this time, Elizabeth might have realised what I told her. And for the next few minutes, she would come here to fetch me and…Suddenly, a knock from the door disrupted my train of thoughts. I paused everything I was doing and went for the ingress, only to see Elizabeth standing in front of me, with her hand holding her right shoulder. Elizabeth nudged her face to the side, avoiding my gaze. Afterward, she admitted defeat.“You were right, and I was wrong, Owari. You knew how the situation would play out, and yet I… neglected your warnings.” Elizabeth’s voice trembled for every word she uttered. But she completed it. After a while, the girl came in, sat at the settee, and drank the purple potion, even though she was already healed.I took
Within a few seconds, a crater appeared on the ground, hinting at the power of the grenade to everyone. Fortunately, the blast didn’t injure anyone. But the fact that an explosion occurred made the nearby knights and adventurers react almost immediately and storm the area.The eight students who witnessed such a scene unfold before them knelt down and covered their ears. My grenade had a violent blast that could injure anyone’s ears, regardless if they were teenagers or adults. Luckily, none of that happened. If it were to happen, I had to create another vial that could restore these student’s hearing or else I would be liable to these trivial damages.When I glanced at the side, Elizabeth was standing strong. She didn’t even cover her ears the moment the grenade exploded and just stared at it with awe. The bomb was similar to the one she held earlier. And when Elizabeth turned to me, her eyes hinted about that occurrence a while back. “Was this… the kind of bomb I was holding erstwh
Elizabeth, who was beside me, stood there in awe as I controlled the conversation. I glanced back, met her gaze, and gave her a wink. This girl knew something was up. And I let her know. Elizabeth was the only person who had somewhat mastered the art of controlling arcane efficiently more than anyone else, even in front of this S-Rank adventurer. Hence, her ability to conjure such intricate magic. It was too bad that Elizabeth had insufficient mana pool inside her, taking away billions of possibilities from her bright future.Although this man called himself a warrior, he didn’t exactly catch whatever I was plotting.But I knew Elizabeth would notice. As the talk flowed, I fiddled my hands and conjured a magic ability that only wizards with fine arcane could notice. After a few seconds, my spell activated. It was a barrier so thick that no blades or weapons could pierce through it. But the forcefield was invisible in the naked eye. No matter how hard people tried, they wouldn’t be ab
I handed the grenades to the King and joined the mundane Magique Academy. Elizabeth was there throughout my years inside the university, but I didn’t attend the classes. They were useless. So I visited the library and became my temporary base where I had access to all over the books, knowledge, and whatnot that was stored for me. Even the storage, which only had limited access to special individuals, was not a restricted place for me… and for Elizabeth.I also requested the three judges for a personal room inside the library. Because I had already made this my space, it was rational to create a unit where I could sleep, eat, and do my things. And that unit will become a laboratory.I already had a few items that I needed to create from scratch. A microscope shall exist in this world, and that thought rested in my hands. There were millions of things I also wanted to create, and it was best to start on the medical stuff for now. But just as I had promised King Rowan, I also planned on
“It’s exactly because of that. What do you think would happen if King Rowan and the rest of the adventurers knew something like this ever existed?” I queried Elizabeth a question.The look on her eyes told me Elizabeth wanted to say something… But the words never escaped her mouth. She just stared at me for a second… before completing my sentences and giving me the answer. “If that existed, people would abuse the elixir and use its power for their personal grain. People will become greedy. And war would appear, and they would stop at nothing to get what they want. The people living in the villages would be the most affected by this catastrophe, and I will be in charge or held responsible for their downfall.”“You have thought that much, Owari, about what would happen,” Elizabeth uttered, still with her eyes affixed into mine as if she was staring into my soul.“That is why this elixir is for your mouth only. I made this for you. If I tried ingesting this… fluid I made, my organs migh
Throughout the days, weeks, and months Elizabeth and I spent inside the library, The book collection Magique Academy had was limitless, but finite at the same time. It almost felt like I was trapped inside a cerebellum where wisdom related to magic continuously flowed inside me. This would take me a decade or two to understand everything.And if I do, I’d become one of the most, if not, powerful beings on the planet… And I would use this knowledge of mine for the greater good. That was my curse. And that responsibility of mine would lead the world into a better life… Which was what my brother would’ve wanted me to do. I had learned multiple things at once. As soon as a few years went by, I had discovered dozens of elements belonging to this place besides the usual attributes. One, for instance, was the magical burst of light coming inside me. The speed wasn’t relative to the illumination, which should’ve been absurd. But it was toned down into something else. Unfortunately, summonin
