I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy

‘What was that being just now?’

Hugo suppressed the fear he still felt and trembled with his hands.

A blue-haired girl who didn’t feel like a human at all. Her warning stirred the fear in the abyss.

Is it real?
After becoming a warlock, he often had hallucinations.
Hugo couldn’t even tell whether the fox he saw earlier was real or a hallucination.

“…It’s something I was prepared to do.”

A warlock is a being who will go to any lengths for ‘power’.
All wizards detest those who are not noble.
It was the same with Hugo.
But since I chose this path, I had to endure it.

Hugo opened the door to the basement.
A musty smell assaulted my nose. When I went inside, the room was illuminated with bright light due to countless magic circles.

A black sphere was waving in the center of the magic circle.
That’s a chunk of magical energy that Hugo gathered while kidnapping children.

“If only I could absorb that magic power…”

Hugo recalled the past with a faint look in his eyes.

He is 78 years old this year and has reached the 8th rank.

Rank 8 was a great achievement.
If you take a little step forward, you will reach the 9th rank. You can become a great wizard.

However,
it was a very low achievement for a magic tower lord.
The Magic Tower of Truth that currently leads academia was of the 11th rank.

It is not unreasonable for the Magic Tower of Pisa, once the mainstream of academia, to collapse.
Hugo, who inherited everything from the Magic Tower of Pisa, achieved achievements that could not even keep up with the footsteps of the previous Magic Tower owners.

I tried very hard. The wizard’s aging curve begins in his 70s. Memory loss plays a big role.

To overcome it, Hugo recorded everything and locked himself in a closet to study magic. Although he was 78 years old, he spent more time locked in his closet than when he saw the light of day.

Achieving a new level at the age of 78 was the result of countless efforts.

Hugo, who came out of the closet, thought that although he was not an archmage, he had the potential to develop a talented person into an archmage.

He planned to run the Mage Tower, which had been neglected, soundly and find a disciple to nominate as his successor.

That’s all. Then…
he can at least apologize to the previous Mage Tower owner, who consistently believed in and supported him even though he was a criminal.

however.

“….”

There was no one in the magic tower.
There wasn’t a single person.
Everyone ran away. No one believed in the possibility of this Magic Tower of Pisa.

As they ran away, they stole everything that was worth money in the magic tower.

Hugo was devastated.
I know that it is my fault for neglecting management and staying in my closet.
However, the Magic Tower of Pisa is different from other magic towers.
The standard for accepting disciples at the Magic Tower of Pisa was commoners.
Most of them were children brought in from orphanages and raised there.

Chasing profit and gain is a natural mentality of a magician.
However, it was the Magic Tower of Pisa that saved them from the streets.
…It wasn’t supposed to be like this.
At least, a few people had to remain.
It is clear that the children will be their benefactors until they die.
It was all a lie.

At first, he tried to gather students one by one, but
it was a far-fetched task in a situation where it was difficult to even find food for oneself.

Hugo was half conscious.
Then one day, a knight came, blowing black smoke.
A voice wearing a helmet upside down and one cannot tell whether it is a man or a woman.
He was full of doubts as to whether it was really alive and spoke with a sound like scraping metal.

-Do you want power?

How many wizards there would be able to refuse?
Hugo, who had already lost everything, could no longer be rough.
Even if I was a black magician criticized by the world, I developed a desire to achieve that level even if it was just by borrowing that power.

I believed that if I became a great wizard, my disciples who had left would return.
When that time comes, you scold them very harshly and accept it as if you can’t win.

The Magic Tower of Pisa is regaining its former glory and soaring dazzlingly.

“It’s over. “I’m finally…!”

Hugo waved his cane.

The magic circle was activated and a black sphere wavered.

The enormous magical power contained within was absorbed into Hugo’s body.

“Oooh-”

Hugo’s pupils widened. I shuddered with joy as if I had taken drugs.

“This power…!”

Hugo spread his arms. I smiled brightly.

full of energy.
It was a mighty power that I had never possessed before.

“Are talented people born with this from the beginning? “It’s unreasonable, it’s unreasonable.”

Sigh, Hugo let out a suppressed laugh.

“done?”

“…?”

Misung’s voice tickled my ears.
Hugo whipped his head around.
The blonde boy was staring at his chin with a bored expression.

“But you know. Did you kidnap children under the age of 10 just for that reason? “30 people?”

“Who are you?”

Hugo rubbed his eyes. He pointed his finger at Ruid.

“i get it. “You’re a hallucination!”

“It’s not a hallucination.”

“The magic circle of the Magic Tower of Pisa is absolute. “No one can break through!”

“It broke when I touched it.”

Ruid stood up.

“Regardless of your circumstances, the cost of my sister’s lack of sleep will be high.”

“bloke!”

It didn’t matter if it was a hallucination or reality. Now nothing can be your opponent.

Hugo waved his cane. A powerful black magic blade was stabbed towards Ruid.

Ruid raised his hand with a bored expression. I held the magic blade with my index and middle fingers.

“…It’s too weak.”

Clink-!

When I applied a little force, the blade broke apart.
Hugo opened his eyes wide.

“Well, since your skills are so poor, I guess I should have looked elsewhere.”

“Hey, profit!”

Angry, Hugo used stronger magic. A black sphere gathered in my hand. He stretched out his hand towards Ruid. The sphere flew at high speed and hit Ruid.

Quang!

A loud noise was heard, and Hugo’s mouth went up in a mean manner.

“You did it yourself.”

“what?”

Whirik –
The dust cleared in an instant and Ruid appeared, looking very fine.

“—!”

“It’s a pity.”

Ruid looked at Hugo with sympathetic eyes.

“Humans who look at places they cannot reach are miserable.”

Hugo’s expression hardened.
Immediately, I became distorted without mercy and felt strong anger.

Ruid said without heeding anything.

“look. That’s only the power you get in return for betraying humanity. “Even my fox can’t beat that little magical power.”

“Shut up—!”

Hugo shouted and waved his cane wildly.
It looked exactly like a child throwing a tantrum.

“What do you know when you get everything overnight without even putting in any effort!”

“I hate people like you! I hate it so much! “How dare you show off when you have everything that someone has spent their entire life achieving, just by being lucky enough to be born!”

“Die, die!”

Hugo used magic like crazy.
A loud crash sounded as if it was collapsing.
Ruid, covered in magical debris, could not be seen.
Hugo gasped.
However, his gaze was focused in the direction where Ruid was.

“huh.”

Hugo’s body flinched at the cold voice.

‘Dae, how on earth?’

“I gained this power without any effort. “It’s unreasonable.”

Hugo closed his eyes and spoke an unknown language.

It was the strongest magic written in the magic book that Chiron had given to him.

“But you know…”

Hugo shouted in a voice that was torn apart.

“Shut up!”

Gooooo –
The darkness of the abyss stuck out its head.
Just by looking at it, twenty ominous hands were pointed at Ruid.

Ruid frowned and put his hands in his pockets.

“If you twist it, you will be reborn.”

Ruid waved his hand as if it were insignificant.
Hugo’s all-consuming magic was destroyed by Ruid’s annoying gesture.

“And, not everyone makes crappy choices like you. “I don’t know anything else, but you shouldn’t touch children.”

Ruid stretched out his hand towards Hugo and clenched his fist. The empty space shook, and dozens of chain spears pierced his body.
Ruid saw Hugo completely bound.
There was no soul. In other words, this was a dummy. It seemed like he had escaped by some means.
I didn’t think about chasing after him. Rather, it saved him the effort he had to do.

“Pay for your sins. Hugo.”

**

“Huh, huh.”

Hugo hurried to the underground passage of the Magic Tower, clutching the deep stab wound on his shoulder. The last magic he used

was a field magic, although it can also be used for the ‘invisible darkness’ attack, which is called the end of black magic .

You can move anywhere there is a shadow.

Hugo, who instinctively sensed that he was no match for Luid, chose to run away.

However, the invisible darkness lasts only about 5 minutes. He would realize that it was a dummy behind him, so his intention was to run as far away as possible.

Hugo came out through the sewer. The soggy mud weighed down his feet.

‘I lived.’

It was when that feeling of relief lingered in my head.
I heard people shouting.
A girl with blonde hair was walking towards me with an expressionless face.

“I am Amelia Windsor, head of the Imperial Academy’s swordsmanship club.” With a sharp

sound
, Amelia pulled out her sword.
Hugo was startled and took out his wand.

“Please just let me go.”

Amelia silently raised her sword and aimed it correctly.

Hugo slowly backed away.

“The children are alive and safe.”

“Confirmed.”

“Well, I only gained a little magical power. “I was going to let them all out, really.”

It was difficult for him to look at the wall that glowed even in the dark for a long time as he accepted the power of darkness.

“I didn’t harm anyone. I’m thinking of immigrating to the kingdom of Delphia. So…”

Rolling his eyes, Hugo looked at the ‘black hand’ approaching Amelia’s blind spot.

‘done!’

Hugo was confident of victory.

But—

“It’s a shallow tactic.”

Suddenly!

Amelia drew her sword in the air.
The invisible hand that was slowly approaching was cut off.
Hugo sat down, coughing up black blood.
Amelia quickly approached and struck Hugo in the solar plexus.
I hit him hard on the back of the neck with an elbow.

Ujikkeun-!

Hugo’s neck was broken. He put his face down on the floor.

“Please save me!”

Hugo spoke in a boiling voice.
I rubbed my hands that couldn’t move very well.

“help me. help me. help me! Sin, I will pay for my sin! So let me stand trial!”

“That is the law of the empire.”

Amelia held the sword horizontally and stabbed Hugo in the neck without a moment of hesitation.

Phew!

“This is the Windsor way.”

Amelia stared at Hugo with a cold gaze and shook her sword in the air.

After that, I stared somewhere.

It was a magic tower that was about to collapse.

“…Luid.”

Amelia closed her eyes briefly and opened them.

“I’ll see you at home.”

Amelia bit her molars, wondering what kind of punishment she should give to her disobedient sister.
