Chapter 488. Magic Tower Master Deciding Match (2)
“I don’t mind if I decide that.”
Our wizard Yang, who burns with enthusiasm, saying that even ignorant methods don't matter.
I agree that it's easier that way.
But that's probably why they're deliberately judging in various ways.
Because there are too many variables to decide in one way.
In particular, the possibility of infidelity cannot be ruled out.
And it also means looking at various qualities and choosing the best ones.
“What? Either way, I think the Diane will get over it lightly.”
“We will try to live up to those expectations.”
Dia nodded firmly and made up her mind.
And finally, the real judging began.
First of all, what is the task given to the candidates?
“…Magic alteration ability?”
“Yes, it is an item that shows the most basic qualities of a wizard.”
Helmin, who was in the same VIP seat, began to explain to me about the qualifications that the first candidates would show.
No, you didn't ask more than that? Are you just mumbling?
It looks like he wants to explain something, so let's leave it at that.
For a magician, the instinct he wants to explain is no different from an occupational disease.
When that happens, you listen with a loving heart.
Now explain. I'll be bewitched with one ear.
“First of all, we show each candidate the magic ceremony that will be the task. And the candidates are improving the magic formula on the spot.”
“It's on the spot....
I'm saying it simply, but it wouldn't be so easy.
What is more difficult than asking to create a new magic is to change the existing magic formula.
“...I think it's quite difficult, right?”
This is difficult from the beginning.
When I grasped the essence of the task, Helmin nodded naturally.
“You can't be a first-class wizard by just using existing magic.”
“So, is it changed from the first test?”
“yes.”
“I don’t think it means simply fixing it…
” “Are you sure you know?”
“A rough concept.”
Of course, I know very well, but I just replied in moderation.
magical transformation.
If that's why it's difficult.
“If you are simply making it from zero, you just need to properly design and spin it.”
“...No, that's pretty complicated too.”
who said what
“The problem is change. The existing magic formula was completed to some extent with just that. Fix it....
What an ironic problem.”
grumpy
I rated it that way.
A magic formula, any kind of magic, is no different from a complete composition.
change it?
Surely it couldn't be that simple, right?
“If it's a complex magic formula, of course, it's possible to modify it to increase efficiency, but it's not just a problem at that level, right?”
“Of course. Of course, I took that into consideration and selected the task.”
Helmin has a very mean face.
“Above all, this assignment is my suggestion.”
“no wonder.”
At least, he must have brought out quite a bit of his own instinct while working on that task.
If that's the case, please ask me.
It would make a very difficult task.
I'm better at that!
Anyway, while we were having such a conversation, the assignment was finally revealed.
The magic formula that will be the basis for the candidates to showcase their changes.
“....hmm. It's called ‘Lightning'.”
It was a simple magic that anyone of the 1st class could cast.
Simply shooting a single bolt of lightning.
“...Aren't you enjoying yourself on purpose?”
“Heh. No way. It was a task that was chosen after careful consideration.”
“Hmm? okay? Is that so?”
Other than that, you seem to enjoy seeing the reaction of the candidates who are now in trouble?
It can be seen that the candidates faced with the current task are all in a difficult situation.
I guess so.
It's only 1 class magic. The formula is also very simple.
There's no such thing as clutter or anything like that.
The intention of choosing to prevent alterations such as slightly increasing efficiency was clearly visible.
And Helmin didn't even hide it anymore and revealed that grumpiness intact.
“ruler? Then, how will the juniors come out?”
“...you're really mean.”
The time limit given to each candidate is over.
Candidates submitted their own reorganization ceremony to the judges.
Still, there was no one who gave up from the beginning, as if each of them were candidates worthy of recommendation.
Even so, each of them had different facial expressions when writing magic formulas.
There are people who desperately write down like those who heard that the world will perish in just a little while.
There are people who write it down without much difficulty, as if they expected that much.
In Dia's case, the mood hasn't changed that much, so it's hard to tell whether she's struggling or taking it easy.
‘Well, I'm sure Dia wouldn't bother with the reorganization ceremony.'
In addition to her, there were quite a few candidates who did not show much difficulty.
‘I can see roughly how much it will pass.'
You can guess what will happen when you see how you solve a problem.
If my eyesight is right, I guess it's about 10 people?
Thinking so, I glanced at the referees reviewing the reorganization ceremony written by the candidates.
Each of the elders, as well as Helmin himself, are checking the magic ceremony submitted by the candidates.
There's no need for me to interfere.
“Hmm... There will be more left than expected. These juniors are excellent.”
“Are you done reviewing?”
“Yes, it is a reorganization ceremony, but considering that there was no time, the criterion for passing is ‘whether the magic ceremony is properly activated'.”
“Hmm? Then can I take a look?”
I was a little curious.
I also want to see what level the other candidates are.
Helmin happily handed me the papers with the magic formulas that had been reviewed.
The result has been decided anyway, so that's why I don't see any problems.
“Where are you? Ummm....
The way each of them reorganized their magic formula was slightly different.
The one who simply increased the power.
or casting speed.
The number of bolts ejected.
There were many cases where each of us picked up one concept and corrected it in a short period of time.
Well, considering the short time, it's not a bad choice.
It's no fun though.
“...Then what would Dia do?”
The name is not written on it, but at a glance, I know at least what Dia made.
I'm looking at Dia.
“. Ugh”
M-3
was silent.
Hellmin, who already knew why I kept my mouth shut, laughed bitterly.
“Even if not, I wanted to ask.
Could this be...
“I think it’s my influence.”
The magic formula that Dia used was subtly different from the other candidates.
Significantly lowers the output of Lightning.
The duration was increased and the wavelength was changed.
what came out as a result.
“...Why did you say it became an electrostatic massage technique?”
Come to think of it, did I ever say something like this in the past?
....I don't think he remembered that and did this.
Maybe it's her own joke.
Or maybe it's because I taught them strange things...
But for some reason, I feel like the latter.
“Well, that is a great overhaul. It seems to have become a completely different magic formula.”
Is the original only about writing electricity?
“Hmm… well, it’s very practical and good.”
It's perfect when you have a stiff shoulder.
“If you make it into a magic tool, it will sell well.”
“The production rights belong to our mage, Mr. Tower?”
don't look over We will make it in our estate!
“Then there is only one piece left. Well, how could this friend...
This time, he kept his mouth shut.
Hey, this is a very embarrassing magic ceremony.
“Hellmin, I wonder if you can ask me, did you also add this candidate?”
“Of course. It meets the screening criteria. When it comes to perfection, it is never inferior to other candidates.”
“....Right. I guess so.”
Well, it's not a problem if it's just the judging criteria.
On the contrary, it is perfectly acceptable.
‘...The problem is too bloody.'
speed killing power distance.
I screwed everything up to the point where I wanted to be brutal.
Obviously, the original is 1st class magic lightning.
If this modification formula is followed, it will become a high-voltage current bullet with high accuracy that can hit a distance of several kilometers.
‘If I had to ask, it's for sniper use.'
Bloody things like this are more dangerous in real life than moderately powerful magic.
Whoever made this knows the difference.
“Well, is this also a candidate’s personality?”
There will be no problem.
As a pacifist, this method just doesn't suit my taste.
Is it just that the thought seen from the magic formula looks a little dangerous?
What will happen when this guy gets to the top?
‘Are you just going to be lazy?'
I dismissed it as a pointless worry and put the paper back with the magic formula written on it.
After that, various assignments were given to the candidates.
They were tested on various subjects, from how to discriminate the material to the pharmacy magic theory test and other tasks.
And finally, there are eight people left.
A total of eight men, including Dia, this time Helmin stood in front of them and praised them for their excellence and announced at the same time.
“According to custom. I will examine the last subject. The most important thing for a magician is power. No one can deny that.”
Helmin solemnly declared in front of them.
“The final examination is to prove your strength.
In other words, a duel between each candidate! I will settle it with a magic duel.”
* * *
Final screening coming soon.
As the duel between the candidates begins.
“Anyway, it was Dia from the first turn…
” “It seems so.”
Somehow, from the first duel, Dia came forward.
I smiled bitterly at the match.
Is it the first one even if it takes?
Well, the probability is 1 in 4, so there's nothing particularly strange about it.
“Well, it was rather good. Conversely, use this opportunity to discourage Diane from the other candidates.”
“yes!”
Dia vigorously responded to my command and set out for a duel.
“I will definitely win.”
“There is nothing to be ashamed of. Just do what you can.”
yes go!
You will be number one!
And Dia confidently headed to the arena.
for victory.
And for the top spot.
The first duel has begun.
The magician of Ernesia Magic Tower, Selfen, thought of herself as a strong person.
Having reached the level of a 6th class master, he was quite famous as a master of flame-based magic within the Mage Tower.
‘Of course... I don't really think I'm a suitable vessel for the Master of the Magic Tower, but... The reason
he came to this position in the first place was because of the strong request of the Tower's factions.
What is often referred to as being forced to move.
He thinks of himself as a competent person, but that doesn't mean he can't discuss the strongest in the Mage Tower.
There are plenty of great wizards out there.
You have that much self-awareness.
‘...It may be difficult to be the head of the mage, but this is an opportunity to prove that my magic is second to none when it comes to flame magic.'
For what he was forced to do, he is quite motivated.
This is because even if you don't aim for the top position, this position is an opportunity to fully appeal your skills.
‘And the opponent...is that Dia Reki?'
