“It looks like fun.”

Chartreau slowly smiled at the question directed at him. Of course, isn’t it an interesting situation? It’s been a while since I’ve seen my younger brother’s magic, and above all, there’s nothing more fun than watching the academy’s juniors fight. Oh, isn’t it ironic? Competing magic with those who are called friends.

“Watching a proper duel between wizards is more exciting than I thought, father.”

“Then, as a wizard, who do you think will win?”

“This is Ceresria.”

“Hmm… … Why do you think that?”

“Just as a swordsman cannot easily defeat a spearman, magic also has compatibility. Celestria deals with fire, and Astan deals with ice. Flame can melt ice, and ice cannot freeze flame. ”

“There are times when a swordsman defeats a spearman.”

“But such a case is difficult unless you are a truly excellent prosecutor. If the skills of the two are equal, I think the match between the two will be like that, just as the spearman would naturally win.”

After speaking and looking at the stadium, the preparations were completed and the game began. As soon as it started, several fireballs were created around Ceresria and flew towards Astan. Astan waved his staff and shouted a spell to block the fireballs with ice, and then created an ice arrow towards Ceresria. I sent it flying away.

Naturally, I thought that the outcome of the match would be Ceresria’s victory. My younger brother was a person to whom it was fitting to say that he was strong, that he was a genius who could of course beat me even if he were with me, and it would be funny if someone who was given the position of princess of a country was not better than others.

As I was just concentrating on the game, my heart was naturally racing. The wizard’s match was exciting, and since I was one such wizard, I couldn’t help but feel like I wanted to participate if I saw something like that.

Therefore, Chartreau touched his chin with his right hand.

As he looked at me, I took a breath and let it out. Naturally, I didn’t think it would be an easy match. It was natural to think that it would overwhelm me. I never even thought that the magic shown at the Academy was short.

I felt the difference in class again. What a funny life, I came up here after having an audience with Denatus, but didn’t she even have an audience with Denatus? Fate was so unfair, and I didn’t like the way she looked at me, feeling the excitement and fun in her eyes.

After one round of fighting, I slowly looked at her while holding my staff, and she was taking a step towards me.

“You’ve grown a lot?”

“If you don’t grow, aren’t you a fool?”

“Still, it’s an unbelievable speed. It hasn’t even been a year since I learned magic, but the fact that he’s at a similar level to me makes me think that being a true god is unfair.”

“What I will say is that even if I overcome death and come back, it will not reach you.”

“Well, as time goes by, one day you will beat me. If you grow at the same rate as you are now, you will soon become incredibly strong.”

“I hope so.”

And I slowly moved the mana inside my body. Mana hasn’t run out yet. I thought I could endure enough if I fought like I did now, but I couldn’t easily shake off the thought that holding on was all I needed. Holding on, I didn’t want that. If I were to compete, I wanted to attack her successfully at least once, but it wasn’t easy.

He slowly moved the mana inside his body. It was time to get ready.

“Astan, does he have a dream?”

“My dream is just to live peacefully with my family.”

“Well, not those dreams. I want you to tell me your true dream. There’s no one here to listen to your conversation. And I am already standing here not as the princess of Araelia, but as someone named Ceresria.”

“I just want to grow up enough to protect those around me.”

“Wrong, Astan.”

She smiled at me.

“That’s not the dream you want, is it? I’m disappointed, I actually asked about my dream.”

“Then what is Ceresria’s dream?”

“Um.”

She said that and pointed her wand at me.

“I want to be a king. Isn’t it natural for every human being born into this world to aim for the peak? So Astan, tell me your dream. I have told you everything in truth.”

I carefully aimed my wand at her and slowly moved the mana inside my body with the wand.

“I just don’t want to end up as an extra. I just want to be a hero, not someone who appears only once like in heroic stories.”

“Well, a hero.”

And at that moment, a large fireball was created around her and it slowly began to converge into one point.

It was magic I had seen before. It was the magic he used when dealing with Miles. Before I knew it, the fireball was floating around her like a big sun, and I bit my lip.

“To become that kind of hero, you’ll have to surpass me first, you know?”

“Don’t you know that?”

At that moment, a fireball flew towards me and I quickly uttered a spell.

“Ice, rise up.”

As soon as I cast my spell, a cold chill swirls around and slowly begins to freeze the water droplets in the air. As he gathered water droplets around him that quickly turned into ice crystals and aimed the fireball with his staff, the cold instantly turned into ice and the fireballs began to collide.

A tremendous sound was ringing in my ears. The sound of ice being made and the ice melting was making my ears ring loudly and slowly shaking before my eyes.

Of course, I didn’t think it could be prevented. Because there were countless differences between her and me.

But, at least.

I thought I could get through her defenses just once.

Like now, if she has plenty of free time.

For once, I thought I would succeed.

“Ice, dig into the enemy.”

And when she clasped her left hand with a spell, an ice sword was created around her and began to rush towards her, and she smiled as she looked at the sword.

“You didn’t think that something like this would happen, right?”

At that moment, a large magic circle was engraved under her feet.

I knew it. What is that magic? It’s similar to Isabelle’s magic. But that was also expected.

“I thought about this.”

Then, with a smile, I slammed the staff in my right hand on the ground and shouted a spell.

“Ice, answer my cry, freeze everything in the world, Sglaca!”

At that moment, everything felt like it stopped.

“Well, it seems like a winner.”

Chartreau spoke, lifted the cup with his right hand and drank lightly.

“Is this Ceresria’s victory?”

In response to Markin’s question, Chartro nodded and looked at the stadium. They were wizards of unbelievable skill.

One was a wizard who seemed to freeze the entire stadium into ice, and the other was a person who summoned fire like the sun to the earth.

This is the first year of the academy? It was a talent that was so frightening that if other people saw it, they would wonder if he had lied about his age. How many people have this much talent? How many people have this level of talent even while attending the Academy? …

There was none other than the woman called Isabel. That junior who single-handedly protected the Sea of Charon. When I thought about it, I realized that Astan and Isabel looked similar.

I wondered if he was not Erica’s student, but Isabel’s student or her younger brother.

And at that moment, Astan appeared. He was holding a stick in his right hand and pointing it down towards the ground, shouting something.

It was one of the things a wizard should not do. Using a magic using the ground by sticking a staff into the ground naturally involved large movements and large spells, so there were many ways to avoid the magic. Unless it is a spell with a large scope.

But at that moment, an eerie feeling passed through my entire body.

Great fear, latent fear. I’ve had this feeling before.

It was the feeling I felt the moment I competed with Erica.

Chartro shouted loudly at that sight.

“Stop the game!”

“Why are you doing that?”

“Stop the game immediately!”

And at that moment, a tremendous wind began to gather around.

It was a wind that seemed to freeze everything. The air was so cold that it felt like breath would escape as soon as the wind hit it, and at the same time, the water around it was slowly freezing. A familiar feeling of fear creeping in, I’ve seen this before.

‘Opening.’

Erica was the person who caused it with just one spell.

But that wasn’t the case with Astan. And the moment I looked at the stadium, Ceresria was smiling.

There was a large magic circle engraved on it, and the moment light came into the magic circle, the sight before my eyes was colored with flames.
