Magic is Learned for Nothing – Episode 159

# 159

Ironclad Warrior Legion 1

Prettyia was reminded of the man she had tried to forget each time.

Alexander de Recordian.

He was an exceptionally large man for a human. He was either taller than that guy or at least not shorter.

His martial prowess was outstanding.

His looks were even more outstanding.

He had a face that could summon demons just by standing still.

Recordian had come to her seeking to become a Dragon Slayer.

Prettyia humored him and sparred with the man.

At first, it was amusing how he just charged in, all size and no substance. But he had potential. She had never seen anyone improve so quickly.

At least, not among all the races Prettyia had encountered.

Each time they sparred, the man appeared stronger than the last time.

Regularly, once a week.

For a whole year.

Damn it, she must have grown fond of that face from seeing it so often.

When the man didn’t show up after a year, she found herself subtly concerned.

“Seriously, why isn’t that punk coming if he’s going to catch me? Humans these days have no persistence. No persistence.”

Prettyia went out into the world after a long time.

“It’s not because I’m curious about that guy. It’s just because I’m bored.”

She justified it to herself.

And she met Recordian less than a month after descending from the Düsselph Mountains.

He was training at a waterfall.

Recordian smiled brightly when he saw Prettyia. He had healthy teeth. Although the heavens had given him a villainous face, his smile was worth a million gold.

Prettyia felt her heart race for the first time.

“The secret technique to defeat you will soon be complete.”

“Why do you want to defeat me so badly?”

“Just because.”

“Just because?”

“Is there a reason to become stronger? The Dragon is just the measure of it.”

“Hmph, you’re crazy. To think of a Dragon as just a measure for getting stronger. You must really be itching to die.”

“Haha, if I die by your hand, I will have no regrets in life. So please wait a little longer. I will never disappoint you.”

Prettyia snorted, but she didn’t leave Recordian’s side.

They traveled the world together. Exchanging opinions whenever they had the chance, they created the strongest technique in history.

Or rather, it was a technique for Recordian to gain Prettyia’s recognition.

Two years passed like that-

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

“Seventh Form! Our love forever!”

Recordian, having unleashed the final technique, looked at Prettyia, panting. Recordian had closed the portal opened by the Demon Realm’s noble franchise.

The power was so great that the portal and the franchise were blown away at once.

“Finally… you’ve completed it.”

“That’s right. I’ve finally completed it. It’s all thanks to you.”

Recordian approached Prettyia with a gentle gaze. He knelt down and took Prettyia’s hand.

“I want to marry you.”

“What, what? Are you crazy? I’m a Dragon.”

“What does that matter? I love you, and I feel that you love me too. Isn’t true love about transcending race?”

“Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, you’re completely insane.”

Dragon Slayer Seven Techniques.

A technique created solely to woo Prettyia.

They were connected like that, and the love between a human and a Dragon seemed like it would last forever.

However-

As always, misfortune strikes suddenly.

“Excuse me, is this my father’s house?”

A young girl came to find Recordian. She was only about ten years old. Her appearance was very cute. But her hands and feet were swollen and grimy, showing how much she had suffered.

“Father? Who are you?”

Prettyia asked the girl as if she found it amusing.

“Who are you?”

The girl asked boldly.

“I am Prettyia, the mistress of this house.”

“No. I am now the mistress of this house. That’s what my mother said before she died. She said I would inherit everything in this house.”

Prettyia’s eyebrows twitched at the girl’s words. She didn’t resemble him in appearance, but her personality was just like his.

So, she cast a ‘Genetic Test’ spell that only mages above the 7th Circle could cast.

This can’t be!

Prettyia knelt down.

Tears welled up in her eyes. The girl in front of her had a 99.9 percent chance of being Recordian’s biological child.

Prettyia was furious.

You son of a bitch!

Recordian, who had gone to the village, guessed the situation and knelt down.

“I’m sorry! I drank too much that day. It was just one mistake.”

“Is that what you call it! You bastard! You went out and sowed your seed? I’m going to kill you all! I’m going to burn everything to the ground!”

Prettyia, enraged, bombarded Recordian’s head.

And Prettyia returned to the Düsselph Mountains, shedding tears.

She vowed. I’ll never love again, she said.

Recordian came to find her several times after that, but she moved her lair altogether.

She didn’t know how Recordian died. She didn’t want to see him again. She didn’t even want to hear his name.

So!

She hated that Drazier who resembled him too.

“Get out! Get out! Get out of here!”

In the end, Prettyia even cast a ‘Meteor’ spell. Was she planning to destroy the entire Düsselph Mountains?

“What a crazy bitch! I’m leaving. I’m leaving!”

Drazier quickly retreated. It seemed like that Red Dragon had gone crazy. He didn’t know why she was suddenly acting like that. Today didn’t seem like the day.

He would pick another day to come again.

Drazier fled from the place where the rain of magic was pouring down.

* * *

At the same time.

Legion, who had returned to the Dark Elves’ village, received a tremendous welcome.

Legion was exhausted, but he thought he should show the aspect of a hero in times like these.

“I saved you because I’m so great!”

The Dark Elves, who were cheering, stopped.

“I will receive the value for saving you. 1,000 gold per person. Since there are two hundred and fifty of you, bring me 250,000 gold!”

The cheering stopped.

The Dark Elves looked at Legion with dumbfounded expressions.

What is that pig saying?

Legion had no idea why the atmosphere was sinking.

He kept demanding money until Natalie and Rene ran over and dragged him down, and only then did he stop.

* * *

Legion got up and immediately looked for Säncca.

It wasn’t the time to be lazing around and sleeping. He had to take care of two things at once.

Normally, he would have.

“Are you crazy! Why should I work so hard!”

He would have shouted.

But it was a matter of his subordinates’ lives.

One was Mizsette.

By now, she would be locked in a solitary cell, crying. She would be banging on the door, shouting, “Let me out of here right now!” No matter how much she knocked, people wouldn’t come. They would give her cold looks.

In fact, Mizsette received all sorts of rare clothes as gifts from the harem.
Dozens of maids filled her surroundings.

“Oh my, how pretty.”

“You are so beautiful. You are the most suitable person for the Archbishop.”

“You must have trained a lot. This beautiful neckline and firm muscles. Mizsette, you are the best.”

“Ah, Mizsette, this poor friend… wait a little longer. I will save you soon.”

Locked in a solitary cell, you will be looking at the moon through a small crack in the window, wondering when our boss will come to save me. I can’t bear to abandon you as an owner.

I won’t risk my life, but I will do my best to save you.

What if they demand a ransom for you?

Ugh, it hurts my heart, but I’m willing to pay up to 5,000 gold. No more than that. Just kill me instead!

Just stay alive. Mizsette.

Mizsette thought she had seen quite a few rare jewels while following Legion. But she realized that the world is wide and there are many jewels.

The jewels in her necklace, the rings on her ten fingers, her earrings, and even the bracelets and anklets were all rare things she had never seen before.

“Really, can I have all of this?”

“Of course. You are the Archbishop’s new love.”

The maids smiled brightly and approached Mizsette.

Mizsette was getting happier and happier. When she was dragged here, it felt like the world was collapsing. When she thought of her colleagues who risked their lives for her, her heart ached.

But-

Once she came here-

It’s really good.

Mizsette sat down and pointed to the many jewels.

“Give me this too, and give me that too. I can wear them, right?”

“Of course. Everything here is for Mizsette.”

Mizsette was starting to like this place more and more.

Ah!

Legion stopped in front of Säncca’s wooden mansion.

Mizsette came to his mind again. He hadn’t paid attention to her before. I was too indifferent to you.

Mizsette’s eyes as she was dragged away by the black-haired man came to his mind. Her eyes were moist and she had given up on everything.

She clearly said with her eyes.

-Goodbye, boss.

You foolish thing!

That’s not when you use the word goodbye.

They will definitely starve Mizsette to death in order to kill her spirit.

The basics of torture are to touch the primal parts of a human. Not feeding them and not letting them sleep are the most painful reasons than physical pain.

Probably!

They will not feed or let Mizsette sleep in the solitary cell. And they will brainwash her to make her convert to the Stone Head Church.

Wicked things!

I will definitely go find you. Wait!

Legion kicked the door of the mansion where Säncca was staying mercilessly.

Bang!

Säncca’s mansion door, which was hit by Legion’s powerful kick, broke in half.

* * *

Säncca hurriedly put on his clothes and sat at the table.

His wife brought tea with a displeased expression. That crazy bastard had suddenly broken into someone else’s house and smashed the door.

Säncca had lived for hundreds of years, but he had never seen such an impolite human being.

If only he had knocked twice.

“What brings you here so early in the morning, benefactor?”

Even so, he couldn’t turn away Legion, the benefactor of the Dark Elf tribe.

“Have the Dark Elves been saved?”

Legion asked.

“That’s right. We are all greatly indebted to Legion.”

“Then you must know what happened to my subordinates?”

“Of course.”

Säncca’s expression hardened.

The female mage named Mizsette was kidnapped. Although it was voluntary, it was clearly a kidnapping under pressure.

Also, the other humans were poisoned.

It may not seem like a problem right now, but the poison will gradually rush in and eat away at their bodies.

He had to detoxify their poison before that.

The problem is that it is impossible to detoxify with the detoxification ring that Legion brought.

He only needed Mandragora [a plant with magical properties, often used in potions].

That’s why he knew why Legion was in such a hurry. He might not have slept a wink.

“I’ll ask you directly.”

“Anything.”

“Right now! Is plastic surgery magic possible?”

Eh? Not Mandragora?
