Chapter 234. Transmutation Magic Rowing Match (1)
Radel's card magic stage ended.
Since it took ti for the audience votes to be tallied, the only thing Radel could know was the score from the professor judging panel.
The professor judging panel, who had discussed for a long ti, pondered until the end before raising the scoreboard.
‘9.5!’
The professor judging panel's score was higher than Radel expected.
Then, the professors' reviews began.
“I was impressed by how you overca the limitations of magic power and drew out the unique ability possessed by the spirit.”
“Seeing you communicate smoothly with the spirit, I had no choice but to give extra points.”
“You're still a 1st-year, right? I hope you will continue to devote yourself to Summoning Magic in the future.”
Listening to Radel's review, so nodded, while others showed a reaction of disbelief.
The person with the incredulous expression was Leon, who received the sa score as Radel.
‘Unique ability of the spirit?’
Isn't it simply the ability to read the back of a card?
It was absurd that such a trivial ability was the ability of a Great Spirit, but seeing him receive high scores from the professors, he couldn't understand it.
However, Leon's followers were secretly agreeing.
“Kuh, it's frustrating, but the professors' words have a point.”
“If it were , I wouldn't have known what talent to show in that situation.”
At the followers' words, Leon's gaze turned cold.
“What did you say?”
Then, Leon's followers, quickly grasping the atmosphere, completely changed their expressions and answered.
“We ant it was nothing compared to the spirit magic Prince showed!”
“No matter what tricks the 8th Prince plays, what use is that? Maybe if he goes to a gambling den, right?”
“Of course. Such tricks are not real magic. Our Prince is the true genius of Summoning Magic.”
However, Leon's heart did not ease.
It was just an Academy sports festival, but this was also a place where his ability as a royal was tested.
To beco the next Emperor, it was only right to produce good results.
Leon ground his teeth.
* * *
The one who received the most audience votes in the Spirit Talent Show was Radel.
However, when combined with the professors' scores, he ended up losing to the 4th-year senior.
Although he regrettably didn't take 1st place, because the 1st-year representative players including Leon received high scores, they were able to achieve a good result of overall 2nd place.
‘This is a decent result, isn't it?’
It was the mont Radel was thinking while fiddling with the dal given to the 2nd place.
Professor Marianne's face caught Radel's eye.
‘Huh?’
It was a calm expression, but it looked different to Radel.
The fact that the Black Falcon Dormitory didn't take 1st place in the Summoning Magic category she was in charge of seed to have displeased Professor Marianne.
Even Professor Lilian was sticking right next to Professor Marianne, whispering sothing and giggling.
‘This is bad.’
Judging by the atmosphere, Professor Lilian was definitely touching Professor Marianne's pride.
At this rate, the lives of everyone in the Black Falcon Dormitory were in danger.
After the Spirit Talent Show ended, Radel, sensing the crisis, moved busily.
Because he had to make up for it sohow through the next match.
“Excuse , coming through.”
Radel pushed through the flocking crowd and headed toward his destination.
The place Radel pushed through people to reach was the street stall he had set up aiming for the sports festival.
“Two iced coffees!”
“One butter-grilled squid!”
Students were crowding the stall, constantly shouting orders.
“Coming right up!”
Armandy was sweating profusely, endlessly making iced coffee.
Radel smiled contentedly at the sight of him manufacturing iced coffee like a machine, using ice elent magic if ice was short and water elent magic if water was short.
How well he worked.
It looked like he had perfectly mastered the recipe Radel passed on.
Next to him, Pirenzo wearing a bear mascot mask was also working hard.
Even though it must be hot standing in front of the fire, the hand movents grilling the squid without a word were unusual.
His skill in flipping the squid at the exact timing after spreading peanut butter was dazzling.
‘Indeed, a forr assassin.’
He didn't know his hands were this fast.
Iced coffee was popular, but the butter-grilled squid Pirenzo was in charge of was also selling quickly.
Students who slled the stimulating scent couldn't pass by the stall.
“What is this sll?”
“They say they sell squid grilled in butter over there, let's go!”
It was obvious that business gained montum as word of mouth spread, but it was ti to fold around here.
‘Armandy is absolutely necessary for the next match.’
Radel made up his mind firmly.
“Now, we will have a break for a mont.”
Armandy stopped making iced coffee wondering what this sound was and raised his head.
In his eyes soaked with labor, the figure of Radel, the culprit of this beggar-like work, was seen.
But surprisingly, wasn't Radel asking for the custors' understanding saying he would fold the business?
“Thank you for visiting. However, we will only sell up to here.”
What does this an?
Armandy ended up narrowing his eyes at Radel's dazzling appearance.
Light.
It could be nothing but a single ray of salvation light.
After asking for the custors' understanding, Radel quickly tidied up the place and gave freedom to the two slaves.
Is this reality?
Armandy almost shed tears.
‘No, no!’
Armandy, who was almost bewitched for a mont, suddenly snapped back to his senses.
He shouldn't forget because of whom this hell started in the first place.
‘You must not forget, Armandy!’
Armandy whipped himself harshly and pulled himself together.
But when Radel put a magic power recovery potion in his hand saying good work, his heart ended up weakening.
“You worked hard, Armandy. Everyone said your iced coffee is delicious. Let's rest a bit now.”
Radel personally opened the magic power recovery potion and patted Armandy's shoulder.
While drinking the potion, Armandy was grumbling before he knew it.
“Good grief... Do you know how hard it was working suddenly without preparation?”
“Yeah, yeah. You did really well.”
Radel accepted Armandy's grumbling and nodded.
Then he smiled brightly while handing over a health recovery potion.
“Then you should prepare for the next match now, right?”
* * *
A devil.
He must be a devil.
No, he's worse than a devil!
As soon as he escaped from the stall, Armandy wailed inwardly, pessimistic about his situation of being dragged to the Transmutation Magic match.
But after drinking the recovery potion Radel handed him, Armandy beca surprisingly fine.
He wanted to lie down saying he couldn't do it if he followed his heart, but since his condition improved, he had nothing to say.
“Just what on earth did you feed ?”
“Hmm? It's an ordinary health recovery potion?”
Naturally, what he fed Armandy couldn't be an ordinary potion.
Radel grinned seeing the effect of the Hayden-style beginner potion.
As expected, endless doping was essential for labor.
The two ca to the lakeside to participate in the Transmutation Magic match.
Because for this match, they had to ride a boat across the lake and co back.
Since they had to row directly after building the boat, it was a category that required physical strength as well as magic skills.
Nad the Transmutation Magic Rowing Match.
Making a boat by changing the given materials with Transmutation Magic was the start of the match.
For that, Radel had selected Armandy, who had excellent magic skills, as a representative player.
‘I never even said I would do it...!’
Armandy shouted inwardly once again, but the situation didn't flow as he wanted.
However, if there was one consoling thing, it was that the 9th Prince was in the sa Transmutation Magic representative team.
Armandy hadn't seen a single bit of the 9th Prince's performance in the sports festival because he was held at the stall selling iced coffee all day.
Still, thinking that he could play the match together in the sa team as the 9th Prince made him feel a little better.
However, that feeling didn't last long.
Radel ended up causing trouble again.
‘What is this again?’
Seeing the material Radel brought, Armandy almost tore his hair out.
The materials other teams chose were mostly ordinary materials like planks or lumber.
But what Radel chose was a large sheet of paper.
Leon also couldn't understand it, so he glared at the paper for a long ti before asking Radel.
“What is this?”
Leon's absurdity and anger were fully contained in that one word.
As expected, 9th Prince... you have the sa mind as .
Armandy felt a sense of kinship with Leon who felt the sa emotion as him and nodded slightly.
But Edward, who was selected as the sa representative player, was unconditionally on Radel's side.
“I don't know what the problem is. Prince has a plan for everything.”
At Edward's words, Armandy got goosebumps.
It was a tone he had heard a lot sowhere.
‘Isn't this what that apprentice holy knight lives by saying?’
The 8th Prince's followers must not be normal, every single one of them.
* * *
Zirco Lev, the representative player of the 2nd-year dormitory, the White Fox Dormitory, was stealing glances at the 1st-year team while pretending not to.
Among the 1st-year representative players, there was the arrogant junior who had played a trick on him.
‘Radel Silvert Cretian!’
Zirco gritted his molars recalling the humiliation he received from Radel.
The guy who trampled on everything he had prepared during the eting with seniors.
Zirco had ended up having even his artifact taken away like a fool.
Although that artifact was useless to Zirco...
How easy is it to obtain sothing called an artifact?
One had to pay a high price at an artifact specialty shop or go through Dungeons countless tis to barely obtain one.
When he was chewing on the bitter mory with Radel, Radel, who discovered him, approached.
“Senior Zirco.”
Radel greeted Zirco with a glad expression.
“To et you here. Thank you so much for back then.”
Then didn't he introduce him to the 1st-year junior next to him?
“He's my direct Transmutation Magic senior. He's also the person who gifted a precious artifact during the eting with seniors. How generously he gives to juniors.”
“A precious artifact? He really is a person who gives generously to juniors.”
Edward, who was next to Radel, was surprised and bowed to Zirco.
“Nice to et you, Senior Zirco. Please take good care of our Prince in the future as well.”
Then, brushing past Zirco, didn't he whisper like this?
“I apologize for not recognizing you all this ti. I will contact you soon.”
Zirco barely nodded his head with a bewildered attitude.
‘Wait, what does that an just now?’
Zirco couldn't grasp how the situation was turning, but since Edward whispered so quickly and passed by, he nodded without even knowing what it ant.
Like that, after the 1st-year juniors disappeared to get materials, Zirco belatedly felt anger surging up suddenly.
‘Take care of what? Did I give it! It was practically taken away!’
Zirco trembled and made up his mind.
He would wash away the humiliation he felt back then with this match.
However, Zirco never dread that due to this eting, he had ended up on the list of followers in Edward's mind...
