A Court Magician, Who Was Focused On Supportive Magic Because His Allies Were Too Weak, Aims To Become The Strongest After Being Banished - Chapter 8 – REUNION WITH ORNEST REINE

“So, how’s the battle going?”

“I guess it’s about 50-50. But the Guildmaster uses the Ancient Relic Artifact, which gives Alec a disadvantage in the long battle.”

“——The dragon scales wriggling, Dragunil.”

The “Ancient Relic Artifact” that Leviel uses is shaped like a gauntlet and can be handled as a weapon and a recovery tool for the owner.

Jorha knows this, and that’s why he says it’s a disadvantage when fighting for a long-term battle.

“Oh, so that’s the reason why that old man was in such a hurry when fighting. So that was the reason. Even though he was a former S-rank party adventurer, if he couldn’t win even after using an Ancient Relic Artifact, it wouldn’t be good for him.”

Ornest laughed out loud, and it was a good time for him to laugh. He seemed to be filled with joy and bitterness. There were a little tingle and a little bit of anger in his voice.

There is no gap inability, at least not at this point. If this is the case, the competition will continue.

However, there was no way that they could continue to fight in the name of “skill-testing” like this forever, and Leviel, who was supposed to have an advantage by far, may have felt frustrated.

They were shouting at each other frequently as if they were trying to provoke each other to finish the battle fast.

“I’m surprised you can get Alec to join you. I was the one who suggested it, though, to be honest, it was a bad idea.”

“…… Ah, yes. I was almost ready to give up, but luckily I got lucky with this one, ……, I think you can say that’. I mean, yeah. Alec had a lot of things on his mind. ……”

Jorha turns away from Ornest and looks down to the ground with a distant expression in his eyes.

Rather than sympathy, there was a sense of dismay, as if he had already known what was going to happen.

“Was that an idea the Gardana Kingdom decided on?”

And with Jorha’s words, which Ornest was doing his best to mend, he understood everything.

Four years ago.

They had opposed Alec’s path when he graduated from the Magic Academy because they wanted to become adventurers together. It was not only because they wanted to be a part of the adventure.

The Gardana Kingdom is firmly committed to the idea of electing the best candidates.

That’s why they were all opposed to Alec’s attempt to enter the Court, which was controlled by nobles who valued blood and status above all else.

He was not going to be a Court Magician.

“Well, you knew that. The place is too strict for the common people. It’s a place for people with weird pride. I’d go crazy in a day.”

It’s……, it’ s a big achievement that you could survive for four years.

Then Ornest threw in a compliment, which was not like him usually.

“So, what was Alec doing?”

“The Prince’s protector.”

“The royal prince’s keep guard?”

“Well, you know. I heard that I was made to be a protector in a party led by the Crown Prince. By the way, swords and high-ranking magic with high killing power were all disabled. In Alec’s case, he used his hands to work his magic, and because he was forced to carry the luggage, he couldn’t use both hands, so he could only use support magic that wouldn’t harm his allies.”

“…… That’s ridiculous if you ask me. …… Wait. Did you say “Support Magic “?”

“Yes, I did. “

“That’s crazy. He never used any support magic. 、、、、、、、、”

To be precise, he had never used supportive magic in the six years he had been at the Magic Academy. Alec never learned any supportive magic at the Magic Academy, which was correct. So Ornest’s statement was not wholly wrong.

“Because I was there at the Magic Academy.”

Jorha Eisenz, a magician who is recognized by others as specializing in supportive magic.

Because of her existence, Alec and Ornest did not need to learn any supportive magic.

They clearly knew that no matter how much they practiced support magic, they would never compete with Jorha.

That’s why I trusted her with the support magic.

But, of course, Jorha mentioned that Alec was the one who was using support magic.

He was also protecting the party led by the Royal Prince.

“Then? He said he couldn’t use it. He finished the support magic so that he could use it on his own and protected it without using a sword or magic that he was good at?”

Then, he protected the Royal Prince, who was only a burden to him.

It’s a great way to get the most out of your life.

———— It’s not a crazy story, there …! !!

Ornest almost swallowed the words that came close to his mouth.

“…… How many layers?”

“Huh?”

“Alec said how many layers he was protecting them on. Did you hear Jorha say that yet?”

“29th layer. I heard that the Royal Prince fired Alec after he was stuck at that level for about two months.

“… That’s crazy.”

Are these words directed to the Royal Prince who imposed such limitations on them?

Or maybe it is about Alec’s ability to hold on to his position as Court Magician?

“…I know this because of your time spent here but, support magic is not something to be underestimated.

In addition to improving physical abilities, support magic is also used to assist allies in various ways, including limiting the actions of enemies.

The effect would depend significantly on the skill of the user.

Here, a question came to mind.

Maybe not as much as Jorha.

Even though he had not learned any support magic.

But still, it was that Alec Huguette who was using it.

That Alec, who graduated at the top of his class, pushing aside Ornest, Clasia, and Jorha, was dedicated to supporting magic.

If so, perhaps the effect is far from ordinary?

Above all, alec captured the Royal Capital’s dungeon many times when he was at the Magic Academy.

Probably because of that experience, there must have been some parts that they could have managed.

“…… If you’re not a good student, the Royal Prince of Gardana will have to bury his bones in a dungeon.

“But there is nothing wrong with Alec. It’s because the other side kicked him out for their reasons.”

So there’s no room for sympathy at all, is there? Jorha says flatly.

“… What wrong with his father?”

“He’s living in another country. So I don’t think you need to worry about him. 、、、”

His father, who was also why Alec decided to become a Court Magician, had already left the city of the Kingdom.

So, Jorha said, don’t worry.

If he had been kicked out by himself, he would be unhappy with his own business, and if he were in another country, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to point his anger at Alec.

“That’ s right. Then… I think we can finish up over there while we’re still talking about this bullshit.

Mekiri.

A fist attack hits Alec’s abdomen so hard that such a painful sound is audible.

Simultaneously, Leviel was surrounded by magic circles that deployed without any mercy and tried to swing his fist while being shot through.

—- painful split.

There was a scene that they should describe correctly.

Eventually, the atmosphere vibrated, and the waves that followed became a tiny breeze that struck Jorha and the team’s faces.

The Nest is blown around with great force after being passed right by Ornest.

It crashed into the wall of the arena, sending sand and dust into the air. The sound of crashing and falling could be heard continuously.

After a few minutes, Ornest broke off his conversation with Jorha, turned his gaze to the flying Nest, and walked away.

If it were an average person, it would be a fatal injury.

But if it were Alec, he would have taken some countermeasure, right? Because he had such an idea, he strolled and without any hesitation.

“Yeah, I’m fine and relieved. What’s going on? Alec —-“

Ornest was about to stand up, holding his abdomen while coughing and gasping, and he called out to someone who was trying to rise.
