The following morning arrived.

Because of the incident on the ball the earlier evening, the Lorelei Mansion was in chaos. Soldika, who had stayed up all evening, was now visibly indignant with darkish circles underneath her eyes.

“Ishael Lorelei! After inflicting such a multitude…”

Sorbon, who had been her ally, was pressured to maneuver to a distant cabin.

However that wasn’t all.

Individuals stopped coming round. Even the woman who promised to help her turned her again coldly.

[Soldika, I hope we never have any further contact.]

Soldika’s expression distorted as she learn the ultimate letter despatched by the woman. Her desires had been shattered, all due to Ishael.

“How may my sister shame me like this?”

Pedro murmured calmly.

“Ishael was actually a magnificence. I by no means knew she was a hidden gem within the mud! This Cassanova Pedro says so!”

She checked out Pedro, who was at all times infatuated with ladies, with disdain.

“Pedro, is that actually necessary proper now?”

“Yeah, it’s important.”

That fool who solely brightens his face!

Soldika grabbed him by the collar, frustration evident.

“Then go catch Ishael. Make her have an affair or one thing!”

A gleam appeared in Pedro’s eyes.

“Will we simply crash the marriage ceremony?”

Soldika stared at Pedro with a chilly expression.

‘It looks as if my sister has already tried to break Sir Dylan.’

Simply the considered Sir Dylan made power surge by way of her physique. Her thoughts felt chilly and numb.

‘Sister, I’ll make you remorse ever crossing me.’

She considered her father from a distant land. Her father, who had at all times been strict with Ishael, needed to turn out to be a noble with out resorting to unlawful actions.

[Father, are you doing well?

Please come back soon, I miss you!

But before that, I have something to tell you.

My sister betrayed us and married someone else.

I hope we can find a way to deal with her audacious actions together.]

Soldika relied on her robust father, who had at all times been powerful on Ishael since childhood. For instance, he used to hit her each time she misbehaved, leaving her unable to stroll for some time.

If she may simply obtain a reply from her father, she would have the ability to trample Ishael. However earlier than that, there was one thing she needed to do.

“Pedro.”

“Yeah?”

“Isn’t at present the day? The day you enter the Sage’s Tower and obtain a noble title.”

The Sage’s Tower, positioned within the capital, was owned by the Saboia Duke. It was thought of probably the most prestigious tower among the many magicians.

As soon as a magician of the third Circle or increased submitted their thesis to the Sage’s Tower and handed the examination, they’d be acknowledged as true magicians and obtain a noble title.

“Yeah, at present is the day.”

Pedro spoke with a triumphant smile, his lips pursed.

“I’ll quickly return as a noble.”

He imagined making the attractive Ishael as his spouse and indulging in a glamorous life with varied beauties.

A vivid future appeared to unfold earlier than his eyes.

—

I walked in the direction of the Sage’s Tower, fiddling with the ‘one thing’ I had put in my pocket.

In the present day was probably the most depressing day of my previous life.

It was the day Pedro stole my information and have become an in a single day star.

“Ishael, I’m turning into a noble at present.”

“Huh? Congratulations! For those who turn out to be a noble, suggest to me…”

“Haha, proposing isn’t the necessary factor!”

“Huh?”

“The Grand Magician, Claude Saboia, beloved my thesis!”

Claude Saboia, the Grand Magician.

He was the nephew of the Saboia Duke and a distinguished determine anticipated to succeed the throne.

Within the eyes of somebody like Claude, Pedro, who had caught his consideration, easily ascended the ranks of the Aristocracy.

Previously, I had been a silly idiot who gave away my information to Pedro.

However now, I’m totally different.

Luckily, I arrived on the Sage’s Tower on the good time.

The issue was an surprising friction that occurred in an unrelated place.

“I needed to attend the thesis presentation, is it too late?”

“Solely magicians can attend the thesis presentation.”

“I’m a magician too! Properly, a first-circle magician.”

“Sadly, attendance is already closed.”

Between the closing doorways, I may catch glimpses of enthusiastic feminine magicians.

Their eyes had been fastened on the blond hair in the back of Claude Saboia’s head.

A magician who noticed me sighed softly.

“…Looks as if you’re a fan of Claude. He hardly ever comes out of the tower, so many followers gathered at present…”

What nonsense.

“I’m not a fan.”

“Oh? Then…”

I stared on the pink mark on the paper he held that stated ‘Closed.’

“Is there some other strategy to get in?”

It was Helic’s expression that momentarily confirmed shock at my denial of being a fan, however then it was a peaceful expression.

“No, there isn’t. Please return. Claude isn’t considering feminine magicians.”

Properly, nice.

It was true that Claude Saboia wasn’t considering ladies.

He was solely considering one factor.

Monitoring magic.

And one thing peculiar.

“If I can’t enter as an attendee, then I’ll discover one other means.”

As an alternative of feeling annoyed, I recalled my information from earlier than regression and smiled mischievously.

If I used ‘that methodology,’ there needs to be a strategy to make a scene.

I trembled my shoulders like a fragile hen and whispered softly.

“Excuse me, I’ve a small favor to ask…”

—

The sensation of carrying a well-tailored go well with was satisfying.

The watch that Ishael had given me was meticulously adjusted as nicely.

With this look and the noble title, Ishael would absolutely return to me.

Glad, I entered the tower.

“I’m Pedro, a third-circle magician.”

“Ah, sure.”

“You might be right here to request the title of viscount by way of a magic concept presentation. Please are available.”

The subject of the thesis he had ready was “Monitoring Magic: Enhancing Potions to Hint Lacking People.”

Truthfully, I had no concept what it meant even after studying the title.

It gave me an amazing headache.

However it didn’t matter.

All I needed to do was mimic the script Ishael had written prior to now like a parrot.

“I’m Pedro.”

Pedro barely raised the nook of his mouth.

“Do you all find out about monitoring potions? While you sprinkle the potion on the place the place somebody disappeared, it naturally reveals a really restricted a part of their whereabouts. That is the magical potion created by Claude Saboia right here within the tower. It was a very exceptional discovery!”

Pedro fluently recited the traces Ishael had written for him.

“However let me inform you one thing.”

He theatrically gestured in the direction of the air.

“What if we may additional develop this monitoring potion?”

A few of the magicians took an interest, and their eyes sparkled.

“Oh?”

“How would you develop it?”

“For instance, what if we may observe the detailed actions of the lacking particular person extra exactly than earlier than?”

Claude Saboia’s bored gaze abruptly turned sharp.

Pedro rapidly continued his traces.

“We are able to inscribe a monitoring formulation onto the monitoring potion.”

“What…? Actually?”

“It’s unbelievable!”

“Magic formulation and magic potion are fully totally different domains.”

Their phrases had been right.

Magic formulation had been primarily inscribed onto people or objects, whereas magic potions had been made utilizing particular components.

Pedro smirked and raised the nook of his mouth.

“It appears lots of you’re curious. That’s why I performed an experiment.”

No, it was all Ishael’s doing.

“Each magical object has a ‘circuit.’ I found that magical potions even have a mana circuit. So, all we’ve got to do is inscribe a magic formulation onto this circuit.”

“Wow…?”

“Is there no threat for the magic formulation and magic potion getting combined up?”

The Grand Magician, Claude Saboia, raised his hand.

His secretary, Helic, interpreted his gestures.

“Claude needs an correct rationalization of what you imply.”

Pedro checked out Claude with an anxious gaze.

“Does Claude Saboia have an curiosity in my thesis?!”

Now, if I may clarify the thesis correctly, his future can be secured!

However proper at that second…

Crash!

Growth!

Dazzling mild projectiles started pouring into the stage the place Pedro stood.

“T-Terrorists! It’s an assault!”
