Magi’s Grandson

Vol 1 Chapter 22



Confrontation with the Real Culprit

After the Research Societys first meeting ended, everyone returned to their respective houses. Some returned by walking, some rode carriages, and some, due to the Royal Capitals vastness, returned to the dormitory prepared by the academy.

Since none of the students from S Cla.s.s resided in a dormitory, we all left together.

Speaking of which, Mark, is it okay to go to your house now?

Eh? My house, Sir?

Nn. Its regarding the new weapon I was talking about earlier. I want to determine what can and cant be made.

Ah, sure. Are we heading there straight away, Sir?

Oh right, Sicily, Maria, is it alright if we stop by Marks house?

Its alright.

Im also fine with it. I also want to look at Marks store.

Could I also tag along?

Strangely enough, Tony requested to come with us.

As I suspected, even now, youre still interested in Beans Workshop?

Thats right. Although I dont wield a sword, I still find it exciting to look at them.

I thought you didnt want to become a Knight?

Although I find attending the Knight Military Training Academy unpleasant, it doesnt mean I think being a Knight or a Swordsman unpleasant.

That is Ah, its because of the ratio of men and women

Because to me, that place is h.e.l.l.

Since he was admitted to the academy, Tony has been constantly seen together with girls, so I guess an environment with less girls is torture for him. I thought it was unusual for him not to go home together with girls, so I guess it was because hes interested in Beans Workshop.

Then I shall go as well.

Your Highness!

Since I have two reliable escorts and s.h.i.+n together with me, therell be no danger.

Thats not the problem

Also, Father goes to s.h.i.+ns house quite often.

His Majesty

Gus decided to come along with us while raising some stinking flags.

It suddenly became quite a number of people.

Isnt it fine. Its more fun when everyone wanders around the city together.

It is as you say, its fun.

Mark, Olivia, Sicily, Maria, Tony, Gus, Thor, Julius, and I, a total of nine people headed towards Marks house.

The group was divided into male team, female team, and Gus team. The female team started walking while chatting happily. It looks like theyre having fun.

And so, Walford-kun, what kind of sword are you thinking of getting?

Oh right, its important that the blade is thin but doesnt break easily. Although I want to get it made immediately, I still have to prepare the money for it

As the Magis grandson, there no need for you to worry about money, is there?

I do receive pocket money. However, since I dont earn it by myself, I cant spend too much.

Heeeh, youre surprisingly sensible.

Surprisingly, you say

I wonder how everyone sees me.

But since s.h.i.+n is very strong, he could hunt demons as a part-time job.

Hunting demons part-time?

Eh, did you not know about it? The Demon Hunter a.s.sociation does not employ people permanently. As long as they have records of subduing demons, anyone can get remuneration.

Is that how it is

It just shows how ignorant you are of the world. Everyone knows of it, as its only natural.

Although Ive heard people can receive money for subjugating demons, I thought it wasnt possible if one is not properly registered. So it was just as simple as that.

Mark, who was thinking this whole time, proposed something.

Walford-kun, if thats the case, how about designing an all-in-one thin blade mold, so that large quant.i.ties can be reproduced? Since the hilt does need to be processed separately, the cost will also be reduced thanks to the mold.

Ah, I was also thinking about that, however, the vibration feature will be integrated on the hilt

Ah, I see. We also need to think about the sword being able to handle the vibration.

Yeah, we havent considered that.

What should I do? While I was consulting with Mark, Tony suddenly made a suggestion.

Then, wouldnt it be better if you are able to easily replace the blade?

Thats it!!

Because we said it in such a loud voice, everyone looked towards us.

What happened?

Ah, while we were coming up with an idea for the new weapon, Tony suddenly came up with an idea.

A new weapon

Right, a thin blade that doesnt break easily. In short, if the blade can be replaced easily, we can cut down on the overall cost.

Now, the only thing thats left is how to replace it.

If possible, Id like it so that with just one-touch, the blade can be changed

However, if we do something like that, the cost will increase in order to develop it.

Normally, when the blade is connected to the hilt, its affixed in a way so that it doesnt come off easily. In addition, weapons are usually made with the a.s.sumption that it will shake to begin with, so isnt it fine if its made it a little looser so it comes off easily?

Thats it!!

Oh man, Tony decided to come with us today really helped me out. With this, the prospect of a new Vibration Sword has been realized. Im looking forward to the development.

Well, with this, theres no particular problem.

Gus said so. Before I was aware of it, Gus had become someone like my watchdog.

Lets hurry to the workshop! I cant stop myself from wanting to try out this new idea!

Yeah, I agree.

Hey, s.h.i.+n. While you and the others are in the workshop, is it okay if we go to Olivias place?

We want to talk to Olivia-san more.

Ugh Please be gentle with me

Sicily and Maria probably asked her various questions, Olivia looked exhausted.

Its fine. I was thinking itd probably a bad idea for you guys to come to the workshop with us because youd likely find it boring.

The male team and Gus team headed for the workshop, the female team headed for Olivias store. While we were rus.h.i.+ng to our destinations. On the way there, we pa.s.sed by a huge premises.

Whats in that building?

Ah, thats the Security Office station over there. And behind that building is their practice ground.

Heeeh, is that so

KABOOOOM!!

The wall of the practice ground suddenly exploded.

KYAAAAAAaaa!!!

Followed by the sound of women screaming.

Wh-what is it!!?

Your Highness!

The two escorts stepped in front of Gus to protect him.

What happened? Was there an accident in the practice ground?

No, the walls of the practice ground should have a Magic Barrier, just like the academy

However, for it to break because of a magic attack means

I got a feeling that it might be dangerous. And suddenly, a huge amount of magic power drifted out of the practice ground.

This is bad! Everyone, get away from this building!!

After I warned everyone to move away, the wall behind me exploded.

UWAAA! What the h.e.l.l! Is this!

Because the magic power coming from inside seemed really dangerous, I was a good thing I cast a magic barrier. Although I cried out involuntarily, there was no damage.

As for what had happened, when I looked inside the middle of the broken wall, there was a Knight, a Soldier, and a Magician, and many archers surrounding them.

Ohh!? What the h.e.l.l is with all this commotion!?

There was an indescribably heavy atmosphere. There was too much excessive force, to surround just one person. So, who was the person who has such huge magic power? While I was thinking to myself, I looked at the guy who was surrounded.

Eye-patch covering both eyes

If Im not mistaken, that guy has the same features as teacher Gus and the others had described.

Gus, that person is

Yeah, theres no doubt about it. Hes the suspicious teacher from middle school I was telling you about, Oliver Schtrom.

Oh? Well, well, if it isnt Prince Augusto and s.h.i.+n Walford-kun.

He knows of me? My name aside, theres shouldnt be a lot of people who knows how I look like. In the first place, shouldnt he be unable to see with those eyes?

Please run away, Prince Augusto! That guy is the real culprit of the devil disturbance!!

The real culprit of the devil disturbance? Then that means

Youre the one who manipulated Cart?

Thats right. Well you see, it was interesting to watch him perform for me.

Is that so

He has a disgusting habit, this guy.

Ohya~ You also cannot forgive me?

Yeah, I cant forgive you. How many people do you think have suffered at your hands.

While I said so, I increased my magic power.

Because Ive already finished my experiment here, I would like to be excused and leave this place.

But if I let you leave, it looks like youll be more of an annoyance. Thats why just surrender quietly!

Then, I took out the Vibration Sword, and shot Flame Arrows.

Whoopsie, this looks like its going to get ugly.

And so, he constructed a magic barrier.

BOOM!!

The Flame Arrow hit the magic barrier. However, the barrier didnt look like it was destroyed.

That was dangerous If the barrier was just even a little thinner, it would been destroyed.

As he said so, he looked towards me.

Hey

Theres no way he could have stayed in the same spot!

With the amount of magic power he has, I expected Schtrom to prevent the attack, and I circled around his back and launched an attack.

I swung the Vibration Sword.

Kuh!

Whether he was aware of the magic power, or if it was just his intuition, he escaped from the Vibration Swords path.

That was dangerous. That sword, is a magic tool, right?

Who knows.

I decided not to answer Schtroms question, and continued to charge at him.

As I thought, youre very dangerous.

And so, he cast magic without any chant. I jumped to the side and avoided his attack, and even though it caused an explosion behind me, I ignore it and attacked with Vibration Sword again.

Whoops! As I thought, that sword is troublesome.

This time, he avoided the Vibration Sword by jumping backwards.
