Chapter Index

    From the moment the Age of Mythology ended, there was one unsolvable problem among magicians.

    A topic of fierce debate, with each person having their own opinion, from an unknown wizard sitting on the street to a great wizard who has ascended to the throne of the Magic Tower.

    ‘Is the God of Magic great? Is the Archmage Erginus great?’

    The controversy begins with a mention that in the past, during the mythical era, the great magician Erginus discovered something that even the gods of magic did not know.

    This statement is unlikely to be false, as several figures, including Paladin Ruel, have left relevant information in their books.

    So most of the magicians who support Erginus claim the superiority of Archmage Erginus, shouting that the arrogance of the gods has collapsed before humans.

    On the other hand, those who argue that the god of magic is superior make the argument that hundreds of years have passed from the distant past to the present.

    It is true that at that time the God of Magic was amazed by the wisdom of the great wizard Erginus.

    But that was only a few hundred years ago.

    The God of Magic has since verified how far his power can reach, and has now reached an even higher level, so it is undeniable that the God of Magic is a greater magician.

    Although there were some differences of opinion among those who supported the God of Magic, the central message was generally as follows.

    And the representative of these supporters is Nevera. He is an apostle of the God of Magic and the great magician of the Empire.

    “Those of you who have fought the God of Darkness will know. The existence of a god is something that the concept itself has chosen. The God of Magic has obtained the right to represent magic from the concept of magic. But how could there be a wizard in the world who is better than him!”

    As soon as he heard Frey’s question, the veins in his neck stood out, and for several dozen minutes, Nevera argued that the God of Magic was greater.

    How many times must he have been attacked in relation to Erginus for him to become so angry as soon as the name Erginus is mentioned?

    Nevera’s haunting voice was so fierce that it seemed as if she would kill anyone who disagreed with her opinion, so we said nothing and just quietly listened to her story.

    “Cool.”

    Frey. Are you sleeping right now!? If you’re the one who caused the tantrum, you have to take full responsibility for it! Why are you detonating the bomb and getting away alone!

    “Do you understand!?”

    “Yes, Lord Nevera. No one can deny the wise and merciful God of Magic.”

    When Faby, who had been listening to the story from the front, spoke softly, Nevera smiled slightly and cleared her throat.

    “Actually, there’s no point in talking about this any more. Everything will become clear soon. Hehe. Who would have thought that Erginus would appear on the surface again. You’re lucky.”

    I hated the way he acted as if victory was a given, let alone doubting defeat, but I forced myself to keep my mouth shut.

    If you touch that, you’ll have to listen to another tens of minutes of boring talk. It’s better to just listen to a little bit of nonsense…

    “Do you think you can defeat Erginus?”

    …Joy? You’ve been holding it in so well until now, so why are you doing this at the end!?

    Then, you’re saying that Nevera’s nonsense is being added to the humane one! It finally looks like it’s going to end!

    “I don’t think I can defeat him with force. He’s a different class. However, it’s different when it comes to magical knowledge. I’ve learned directly from the God of Magic, so I’m sure I can return the humiliation.”

    “The world is a mess, but you’ve been silent all this time and are just preparing for revenge, you rascal. You’re a great teacher. You deserve respect.”

    “Ha. Who is Young-ae’s teacher? If he can go against the magic god, he must be a great person.”

    “Yes. He is a truly wonderful person. It is truly a privilege to serve Erginus, the true God of Magic.”

    “…Yes?”

    “Oh my. You didn’t know this either? You must have been so absorbed in your research that you didn’t care about the outside world.”

    Joy took out a fan from her bosom and opened it up, looking down at Nevera with her sharp eyes.

    “That’s right. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to act so rustic and be confident.”

    She’s a villainess! She’s the perfect villainess!

    How long has it been since we’ve seen Joy like that!?

    It’s been so long since I’ve been a fool that I don’t even remember!

    “The youngest daughter of the Patran family. She seems to be quite promising in the social world.”

    …Huh? Why are you suddenly praising me? It sounds sarcastic, but what do you mean?

    Is this some kind of shady, aristocratic bickering? I can never do it!

    “I’m glad to hear praise from someone who has been practicing magic for a long time.”

    “As you will soon find out, the path of magic is truly long and long. I still don’t know the end.”

    “Haha. When someone who is a magic apostle says that, it carries a different weight.”

    The two people, who were direct critics of each other, glared at each other with their blood vessels standing on end, their tone old-fashioned.

    Wow. I’m scared of girls fighting! Faby! Hurry up and stop these two! If this keeps up, there’s going to be a knife fight!

    Faby, who noticed my earnest gaze, stepped between us with a soft smile.

    “Two people?”

    “…I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”

    “I’m sorry, Faby. Since it’s about you, Master.”

    In a word, Pavie stopped the commotion and told the two people watching her to wait before approaching me.

    “I think the sermon will be a little long. Would you like to go outside for a moment?”

    “I will. Your boring story is boring.”

    thanks!

    Just as I was about to escape before the sermon began, Faby caught me.

    What. What is it? I didn’t do anything to deserve being nagged!

    “Kent Youngae stays.”

    “…Cool.”

    “It’s no use pretending to sleep.”

    “I don’t like it. The saintess is not fun.”

    “Kent Youngae.”

    As soon as he saw Faby’s smile harden, he violently pulled Frey away and escaped the room.

    There was a brief commotion from those inside, dreaming of escaping from prison, but that was short-lived.

    I was blankly staring at the silent door, wondering what had happened, and then I turned around to think about what crime Arthur had committed.

    I’m sorry, Arthur! Don’t you have to survive in the country first?

    If my friends are here, it means that Caria and others will be here soon too.

    First, I need to meet with Caria and hear how things are going. I need to prepare to rush in at once.

    Coming out of the church, I looked up in surprise at the early darkness.

    It wasn’t night. It was just a big person blocking out the sun.

    “Stupid Papa. What are you doing?”

    I spoke to Benedict, who was hesitating at the door, and he hesitated and stepped back.

    Is that weird? If it were normal, she would have hugged me with both arms and started crying ugly tears.

    “My daughter. Are you hurt anywhere?”

    “The treatment was extreme. It wasn’t so bad, except for the time when I almost threw up because of some pedophile.”

    “…I’m sorry.”

    Oh my. What was that? It’s that sound again?

    I told you last time. I’m okay on my own.

    This time too, the Pope’s intervention was completely unexpected.

    I didn’t know that kid would openly spread the power of the evil spirit.

    It was an unexpected accident that brought everything to a halt.

    Moreover, even in the worst of situations, I was the one who followed the other person quietly without throwing a tantrum.

    It was my choice. You have no reason to feel sorry.

    “I.”

    The grumbling Papa was annoying, so he hit his stomach with some force.

    I thought he would be indifferent, but Benedict let out a single scream and stepped back.

    “Lucy?”

    “If you’re going to say something stupid and discourage me, get out, Papa. I don’t need that sloppy, sloppy Papa.”

    “That. Me.”

    “Are you really going to keep acting like a slacker?”

    When I frowned and shouted, Papa smiled awkwardly and carefully hugged me.

    “Next time, I will definitely try to be a cool papa.”

    “Ugh. You admit that you’ve been sloppy up until now?”

    “I have to admit it. What can I do about being stupid?”

    As Benedict stepped back, holding his breath, I saw Caria smiling happily and the goofy fox struggling to break free from the leash and run towards me.

    “Let go! It’s just annoying to have to go through this to a woman like you!”

    “This bitch… Ahem. Long time no see, boss. Glad to see you’re doing well.”

    The fox’s earnest gaze was directed at me, but I lightly ignored it.

    Being treated like a pet by someone you don’t even like. Isn’t that the ultimate humiliation?

    Whoa, that looks really nice.

    Next time, I’ll ask Carl to take me for a walk.

    “Lucieee! Don’t leave me!”

    “I’ve gathered as much power as I can while my employer is away. So that I can move at any time.”

    “Good job. If you could just do this when dating, why aren’t you married yet? Ah! You can’t date, right?! I’m sorry!”

    “It’s not that I couldn’t do it, I just didn’t do it.”

    “Really? There’s a guy who likes a girl like you? What kind of crazy guy are you?”

    “…Why do you say everything so sincerely?”

    Oops. I got caught.

    I teased Caria by sticking my tongue out at her, and she started shaking her fists.

    I feel like I’m going to explode if I go any further, so I’ll stop here.

    Phew!

    I looked up in surprise at the loud noise I heard from above and saw that part of the wall of the building had blown away.

    “Come on! Kid! I’ll teach you the topic!”

    “You’re old, so is it okay for you to get so worked up, ma’am?”

    Faby’s mediation…failed!?
