The Case When I Created A Secret Society of Darkness Because I Reincarnated As A Villain, But For Some Reason, It Became My Harem - CH 123
Unlike chanting, using a magic wand is more common in actual combat as there is less risk of the magic spell getting revealed.
Of course, to avoid being overheard when chanting, you would say it with the lowest possible volume, but if the chant gets picked up through hearing-enhancing magic or skills, it becomes meaningless.
In contrast, with a magic circle, it is only theoretically possible to delay the opponent’s response by one step since only the attribute can be determined by looking at the magic circle.
However, unlike chanting, it is only possible if you are familiar with drawing magic circles.
My magic wand got engraved with the ice attribute the Lewis family specializes in. All you have to do is to draw the magic circle you want to cast. It is a method unique to the Lewis family that specializes in survival on the battlefield.
The value of this staff, which is a realistic reproduction of a theory, is worth a national treasure, and our family is nobility because we are the only ones who can handle it.
Incidentally, the heir to the Lewis family does not receive a magic wand with a magic circle but a sword with it instead, and they serve the country as a magic swordsman.
“Why do you…”
Such a sword was being held by the Dark Guild Master, right in front of me, and he used it to cut down all the beginner level [Ice Bullets] that I had shot.
“Missy, you should listen to what people have to say, you know? Why do I have this sword, you ask? This sword was given to me by your dear brother.”
“No, it’s not true! My brother would never give such a precious sword to someone like you, let alone to someone outside my family!”
”Unfortunately, this is the truth. Your brother offered me this sword when I told him I’ve already made so much money and that I can’t give him more medicine if he doesn’t have anything else to offer. If his judgment has become that dull, I believe it’s time for him to use this place as a base. I’m going to leave before he goes insane. Nobles like the Hohenheim and the Lewis family are all trash who can’t even create an environment where I can set up a Dark Guild without worries.”
“Do you think I’m going to let you get away with it?”
“Yeah? You’re a kid who’s never even faced a real battle. I’ll crush you if you don’t.”
“Gghhh!”
And then, right in front of me, the Dark Guild Master opened the window and tried to escape, so I covered the window with ice to prevent him from leaving, but the next moment, I got kicked away by him.
