Chapter 383 – Meigar, the Warmest Wizard (12)
The news of the appearance of the horned devil spread throughout the Mage Tower as if it were a ghost story or a folk tale. At first, the wizards, who were dubious and used it as a joke, appeared in front of the wizards, but when the time came to urge them to come up with a way to stop the invasion of demons, they realized that something absurd had happened.
“Does it make sense to research a way to stop the invasion of demons? There is no data No clues. How do we stop those who try to tear open space from the air?”
All the wizards were gathering and having a meeting. Meigar, sitting in her top seat, frowned at her and said she couldn’t solve the problem this time. Because for her, this seemed absolutely impossible. It was truly unprecedented for demons to tear through dimensions and appear. All the brave warriors gathered and worked hard to block the demons, but the demons would fill up their supplies and charge again, as if a taut water balloon had pierced a hole.
I thought that such a high-level problem was not an area for wizards to solve. It was because for Meigar, other dimensions or other worlds were matters outside her field of study her.
“It’s not good to say that from the start. Maya. Haven’t you even started the research phase yet?”
She was always a magician who handled the elements, and recently had a reputation as a genius who applied magic in various fields to produce results. The mage lord didn’t like it when a woman with such a high reputation said something that would demoralize other mages. Maygar shook her head and said.
“I think it would be better to study offensive magic and put magic over the entrance. It spreads a very powerful magic circle and burns those demons before they enter.”
“That method has its limitations. If part of the broken dam is plugged up with mud, the water flow will stop, but one day the hole will open again and cause a flood. We have to end this problem in our unit. It shouldn’t be a temporary solution. Don’t we even know how strong there are in the world where those demons live? We must sever the connection with the Demon Realm.”
“I do not know. I don’t know.”
Maygar shook her head and threw away her meeting her minutes. The magic tower lord sighed deeply and looked at her side of her. Omelas Ash was next to the Master of the Magic Tower. Maygar seemed very intrusive to her presence in her, but she didn’t say anything.
The Magic Tower Lord stroked Ash’s head and asked.
“Omelas Ash. Do you have any opinions?”
Meigar was annoyed by the mage tower lord’s pointless questions of her.
“Magic tower lord. I don’t know how high your expectations are for him, but do you think that question makes sense right now? What would a 20-year-old kid think?”
“Ah, that…”
Ash hesitated, rolling her eyes back and forth. Maygar frowned and glared at her Ash. Ash lowered her head at the fierce look in her eyes of her, then opened her mouth.
“Well, I have a hypothesis.”
Meigar’s eyes widened at her answer her. The other wizards who were as unmotivated as Meigar, and the wizards who were sitting in her despairing posture, all raised their heads to her. The head of the Magic Tower was looking at Ash with her happy face. Ash rose from her seat, her face flushed, and began to explain her own hypothesis of her.
“That, that… This is only a hypothetical realm, but while investigating the area around the Dwarven Kingdom as per Meiga-sama’s order, I found a border thickly covered with magical power. Meiga-sama said it would be the remnants of the magic stone mine, but I was curious… I secretly did some research…”
He was a really cheeky disciple. She ignored Meigar’s orders and secretly conducted her private research on her. In order not to give her such time, she had to do all kinds of chores and even unreasonable research, but she was conducting personal research in her spare time. Her Maygar teeth her were grinding.
“As a result of calculations through the shape and slope of the boundary, it was calculated that this is a huge circle that can cover the entire continent. And the magic power that maintains such a huge circle is usually…”
“It’s a magic circle.”
The Mage Tower Master nodded her head and said. Ash nodded as if cheered up a little by his response his and spoke in a slightly louder voice.
“Yes, it is. It’s a magic circle. Then just… Well, I didn’t investigate because I’m currently banned from private research, but I wonder if there’s some close connection between this magic circle and the demons now popping up.”
“Private study banned?”
The wizards looked at Maygar with a murmur. Maygar shouted to divert their attention.
“It’s just that I’m working on an important project right now. Haven’t you guys ever been like that?”
Another wizard who was looking through the materials said.
“How big of a project did you secretly ban private research for five months? It is usually completed in two months, but it is normal to ask for additional staff for long-term projects that take more than five months.”
“It’s a secret, why should I tell you?”
Maya responded confidently. But cold sweat ran down her face. She was in so much pain right now. The magic tower owner looked around and started to mediate the situation. Meigar didn’t like Ash, who at this moment hung her head like a sinner and made an abominable expression.
“Be quiet! First of all, we have a clue that we can try right now! A magic circle that no one knows is spread all over the continent? We need to find out what the role of this magic circle is right now. Let all wizards stop their current research and cling to the interpretation of this magic circle.”
Maygar sat down in her seat and tapped her fingers. The Magic Tower Master pushed Ash, who was not going to leave her seat her, and sent her out of the conference room. In the meeting room where everyone had left, she was left alone, Mei grinding her teeth.
****
For two weeks, all members of the Mage Tower were clinging to the magic circle. This magic circle was a very phenomenal thing, tightly woven with a high-dimensional design that they could not do. The mage lord shook his head while looking through each formula in the magic circle, and so did the other wizards. Mei was also confused by the array of her magical powers of her, which she had never seen before.
The woman who was interpreting everything at the center of them was Ash. Meiga, like other wizards, was playing the role of arranging the formulas for the magic circle in her own way and handing it to Ash. She didn’t like the look of herself, reduced to a mere errand boy. Because the seat Ash was sitting on had to be her own.
Ash was arrogant, simply greeted whoever came in, accepted his papers, and focused only on his research. It was the same no matter who came in. Even if the Magic Tower Lord came in and handed over the part that needed interpretation, it was the same even if Meiga came in and handed over the part that needed interpretation. She felt nothing more than humiliation when Ash ignored her papers her and devoted herself to her studies her.
“Nonsense.”
She wasn’t a bummer with vulgar talents. Maygar was convinced she was a genius. She had to be a genius. She had to be the best wizard in the Mage Tower, and no one could ignore her.
*****
After another two weeks passed, they were able to analyze the fragments of the magic circle. It was the result of the gathering of all the wizards in the Mage Tower. Ash, who played a key role in her interpretation of her, was already being revered as one of the best wizards in the Mage Tower. Many said she would receive her medal after this job.
Maygar didn’t like the way she was being held up.
“We are announcing the results of the magic circle analysis. As a result of analysis, this magic circle was a kind of barrier that completely separated our continent from the outside world. However, as a result of searching for the shape of the magic circle across the continent, it was confirmed that part of the magic circle had disappeared near Ahildern.”
“At Ahildern?”
When she was told that her magic circle her had been broken near her hometown her, she was startled. The wizard conducting the presentation nodded his head.
“Yes. That’s right. The magic circle broke for unknown reasons near Ashildern, leaving a gap through which the monsters penetrated. Currently, the research team believes that by repairing this magic circle, we can cut the boundary between the Pandemonium and our continent again .”
Then the Master of the Magic Tower rose from his seat.
“As we just announced, we want to go to the place where the magic circle was broken with the support of the kingdom’s warriors. Are there applicants? This could be very dangerous, and we cannot guarantee your life.”
Maygar heard that and opened her mouth.
“Is Ash going too?”
The Magic Tower Lord looked at her, slightly frowned her eyes her, and nodded her head. Maygar raised her hand.
“I will go too. If it’s near Ashildern, it’s better for locals to go.”
The Magic Tower Master sighed, but allowed her to participate. Because she had no reason not to. Maygar felt her heart race. Once this is done, Ash will go far enough that she can’t keep up. She had no choice but to pull her down before she did. Maygar made up her mind once again, and left her seat her as soon as her meeting was over.
In front of Ash’s visit her, people were gathering and praying for her comfort her. Wizards who could n’t compete because of her lack of skill her, and some wizards who could n’t participate because of her age her gathered to worry about her. However, no one was worried about Mayga, who competed with her.
“Cunning bitch.”
Meigar once again kindled her enmity towards her. Until everyone was gone, she quietly hid there and waited for her moment. As Ash, who had transmitted all of her last remaining wizards her, sighed, Meigar approached Ash.
“Ah, ah… ! Maya!”
Ash treated her with her still, wrinkled face. Maygar looked around her, then grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her into her room her. Her room her, which she had never seen before, was full of all sorts of odds and ends. The floor was full of research journals. Ash said.
“Oh that… I’ve been thinking about it once since I was young, or that… These are the things I experimented with that I wanted to try. It’s not great enough to announce, so I’m just hoarding it all.”
“…It certainly is.”
Maygar nodded and turned her paper over. She was trying hard to manage her expression. It was a pile of treasure. A treasure trove armed with bright, whimsical, and innovative ideas. Maygar wanted this and barged into Ash’s room her.
“Can I read all of these? I’ll return it when this case is completely sorted out.”
“Yes! Anything. And…”
“And?”
“If Meiga-sama doesn’t mind me, I hope she will come back with me and look at my research more.”
Ash said shyly, grabbing her Maygar by the collar. Maya said with a smile.
“Of course. Ash.”
