Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 241

The Monsters 1

Bacon and the exclusive servants were walking on a well-paved road.

In Legion’s territory, it was rare to find muddy roads that would become slick after it rained, a testament to their hard work.

From the previous winter to the current summer, they had dedicated themselves to road paving.

People from all over had gathered, and the assimilated residents of the territory had voluntarily participated. However, the exclusive servants accounted for more than half of the road’s completion.

It was tough work every day, but seeing the finished product was incredibly rewarding.

“Let’s engrave our names on one corner,” Dwallow suggested.

Everyone agreed.

So, they engraved all the exclusive servants’ names on the corner of the stone bridge, filling them with pride.

“By the way, what time is it?” Bacon asked Lotto.

“Isn’t it a little past midnight?” Lotto answered with a pout.

“Wow, we’ve been out for over four hours.”

“That’s because the team leader kept saying, ‘Just one more drink, just one more drink!'” Lotto shook his head, looking exasperated.

Bacon had been completely absorbed in drinking, and before they knew it, the night was late.

To prevent Bacon from suggesting another round, the exclusive servants had united and barely managed to drag him out of the bar.

“Oh, my, has Sepia returned?”

“She must have. Look at the time.”

“What’s with those wyverns? Why did they suddenly appear and start fighting with Sepia?”

“I don’t know. Why don’t you ask her directly next time you see her?”

“Am I crazy? Asking those guys questions.” Bacon shuddered. Just thinking about the two monsters made the back of his neck prickle.

“She must have gone back, right? Anyway, this is a big problem. Those monsters destroyed our accommodation, didn’t they?”

“Oh, that’s right. Not just the accommodation. Part of the master’s mansion was also blown away.”

“That’s right. Oh, my head.” Bacon had a migraine. If they didn’t repair the mansion before the master returned, he didn’t know what kind of disaster would befall them.

They had to fix it perfectly before the master returned, no matter what it took.

Krrrrrr-

It was the moment they crossed the last hill towards the mansion.

They felt a tremendous impact that shook the ground. They thought it was an earthquake. Bacon and the exclusive servants stopped walking.

The alcohol’s effects vanished instantly.

What was that?

“S, surely?”

They moved quickly, using even their magic, unlike usual.

When the exclusive servants arrived, the area around Legion’s mansion was already devastated. The collapsed accommodation was the least of their worries.

Still, showing some restraint, the combatants hadn’t damaged the mansion any further.

-Krrrrrr (I’ll pluck that bird’s head and hang it on our territory’s walls)!

-Don’t be ridiculous. I’ll crunch and chew your ogre head!

Sepia and Nubyeo Nubyeo were still fighting fiercely.

Behind them, the other Bibyeo Bibyeo yawned. He looked at the exclusive servants with a ‘Did you come?’ expression. Tired of waiting, he shook off the dust and lay down on his side.

The exclusive servants were so dumbfounded that they were speechless.

“Let’s go. Let’s sleep at the inn tonight and come back tomorrow.”

* * *

“Vicious bastard!” Eleven wizards approached Legion, radiating murderous intent.

Legion was deep in thought.

Should I kill these guys or let them live?

According to his usual instincts, he would have punched them in the face first. If he hit them ten times each with an iron sword and made them do physical training thirty times all night, they wouldn’t dare to look at him like that again.

And then, if he questioned them before dawn…

“You were wrong, right?”

Ninety-nine percent would beg for forgiveness.

Only about one percent would spit and shout defiantly. Sometimes there were stubborn ones.

Then he would send them to Sepia, but she wasn’t here now, so he’d have to send them to Dreizer, who was similar in temperament.

“Hey, this guy is stubborn, so play with him for three hours. If he endures, just let him go. We have to acknowledge that kind of stubbornness.”

Then, one hundred out of one hundred couldn’t last an hour and would come begging.

Tears streaming down their faces.

You should have admitted your mistake earlier.

About a hundred ways to mentally break these guys popped into Legion’s head and disappeared. He began to simulate scenarios intensely.

But there was one thing that bothered him.

Vase Rabab and Pseudo-Man.

Vase Rabab somehow felt like seeing a benevolent grandfather. He didn’t want to cause him any harm. In fact, his real grandfather was as crazy as Legion. His great-grandfather was even crazier. His grandfather before that was a crazy person known throughout the world. His great-great-great-great-grandfather was the greatest playboy in history.

Legion didn’t actually know about that, but that’s why he felt the same affection for Vase Rabab as he would for his real grandfather.

Ah, now that I think about it, I’m an orphan. It would be a little better if I had a lover.

I have a lot of wealth, but I’m an orphan, so I’m an underprivileged neighbor. The territory residents have to donate to me.

I should set up a charity pot at the intersection of the territory this winter.

He didn’t care about being stoned by others.

Pseudo-Man was also a really nice person. At first, when he attacked the dark elves, Legion thought he was trash, but he was just a person with a strong sense of commitment who came to keep his promise.

Thinking of them, he couldn’t bring himself to crush these wizards.

I shouldn’t keep getting caught up in these kinds of personal connections and local loyalties…

Ah! I have a good idea.

Wouldn’t it be okay if it was in front of everyone? It’s okay if they don’t know who I am, right?

Ahhhhh! I’m so smart.

-You’re getting so evil.

Shut up.

“Why is it so noisy?” Dreizer appeared just in time.

You appear so quickly. If the master is attacked, you should come out and help immediately!

Legion frowned and thought to himself.

You knew the master wouldn’t die, so you appeared slowly, you big-boobed guy.

Dreizer replied telepathically.

Legion scanned Dreizer’s appearance from head to toe, who appeared behind the wizards.

Irritation surged. He might develop a personality disorder.

That bastard came wearing pink pajamas.

What kind of crazy person in the magic tower would put pink pajamas on a guy with that kind of hairstyle and fierce face!

Dreizer shrugged as if it were natural.

Doesn’t it look good on me?

Ah~ Don’t hang out with Lich Mamon. You’re getting weirder and weirder. You’re just crazy.

Legion sighed deeply and shook his head.

“So what? Should I get rid of these guys?” Dreizer asked.

The wizards turned their heads at Dreizer’s heavy voice. The wizards who saw him were startled and stepped back, then startled again by Legion’s ferocious eyes and stepped back, then looked at Dreizer again and stepped back, then looked at Legion again…

“Stop it. It’s distracting.” Legion, who had been watching for about five minutes, couldn’t stand it and said.

Anyway, one of the wizards couldn’t take his eyes off Dreizer. His expression was as if his heart had sunk deep into the sea.

5th Circle Wizard Dabuser.

Dabuser had met Dreizer about four or five years ago.

Dabuser was making a name for himself as a genius wizard in the village.

Everyone pampered him. They pampered him even when he smoked. They pampered him even when he drank alcohol on the street and caused trouble. They pampered him even when he flirted with women.

Even his mom pampered him when he extorted money from his dad, so he grew up arrogant.

He was a 3rd Circle master at the young age of seventeen, so the villagers were bound to cherish him. It would be the village’s glory if he became a 6th Circle wizard. Maybe he would receive a title and be appointed as the lord of this place.

He knew that too.

That’s why he acted so arrogantly.

But he went too far. He drank alcohol with a woman he met on a blind date and was taking her to a secluded forest when he encountered Dreizer passing through the village.

The woman shouted.

“You’re such trash. I don’t want this! You crazy bastard!”

“Tss, don’t lie! It’s me! It’s Dabuser! Don’t you know how popular I am in the village? There are two and a half laps of the training ground full of women who are dying to sleep with me. I’m offering to serve you!”

“Have I ever seen such a crazy bastard? Then meet those women. Don’t do this to me.”

“Tss, you can’t understand what I’m saying. Shut up and follow me right now.”

Dabuser slapped the woman in the face, grabbed her hair, and dragged her deeper into the forest.

Once they got there, no one was watching.

No matter how much the woman resisted, it was useless. Dabuser used silence magic to isolate the area and bound her so she couldn’t move.

If it weren’t for Dreizer.

Dreizer, who was passing by, said to the woman.

“Hey, woman, should I save you?”

“Tss, you ugly-looking 아저씨 [ajusshi – a term for middle-aged man]. Get lost while I’m being nice. Before I step on you.”

Dabuser was the one who got stepped on.

Dreizer just beat Dabuser without saying he would save the woman.

Dabuser thought he was dead.

Until he woke up in the village square with his clothes all torn off and the red letters ‘I am a rapist, please kill me’ written on his chest.

Dabuser had no choice but to run away from the village because of the humiliation.

He chased after Dreizer, grinding his teeth, and witnessed him single-handedly annihilating a group of bandits.

It was a miracle that he survived.

Even if his personality is terrible, it doesn’t mean he has no senses. That’s why he became a 3rd Circle master at the age of seventeen.

He immediately turned around and entered the magic tower. And until now, he has been hiding his true nature and working hard on magic research.

And now he has run into Dreizer here.

The Dreizer he saw back then was like a lion from hell. The sight of him tearing the bandits’ limbs apart with blood all over his body was still vivid in his mind.

Dabuser trembled without realizing it. The trembling didn’t stop.

Tick-tock-tock-tock-

His teeth chattered.

Spasiba, feeling 의아함 [uiaham – doubtful/suspicious] at his appearance, asked.

“What’s wrong?”

“Oh, let’s just go back today.”

“Go back?”

“Yes.”

“Why? Are you not feeling well?”

“It’s not that. That guy….”

“Who?”

Dabuser glanced at Dreizer. Pink pajamas, pigtails, and a face that looked like the worst criminal in history created an extremely discordant image.

“He’s a pervert.”

“What? Don’t say such a thing. That’s Crazy Dreizer, one of the kingdom’s seven strongest.”

“C, Crazy Dreizer?”

“Yes.”

“No way, why is such a man with a necromancer?”

“Maybe he’s not a necromancer?”

“We just saw it. That skeleton soldier.”

The pressure emanating from the skeleton soldier was beyond imagination. The ferocity was so great that none of the eleven wizards could make eye contact with Mamon.

Even so, they forcibly degraded him to a skeleton soldier.

“I don’t know if he’s a skeleton soldier or a lich, but the one behind him is definitely Dreizer.”

“Are you one hundred percent sure?”

“I’m one thousand percent sure. It would be stranger to misunderstand his appearance.”

“Hmm….”

Spasiba let out a thin groan. He thought that even if he was one of the kingdom’s seven strongest, he couldn’t possibly win if they gave it their all.

It’s really easy to 착각 [chakgak – delude oneself/be mistaken].

But the wizards’ arrogance was enough to make them fall into such thoughts.

However… to do so, they would have to endure significant damage themselves.

It seemed that the execution of that Legion guy would have to be postponed until later.

Their execution was postponed.

Spasiba approached Konichiwa and explained about the ugly-looking guy. Konichiwa glanced at Dreizer. He also had an expression as if he had missed a sure catch.

No one knew that they had come back to life.

“Let’s stop today. You should know you’re lucky.” Konichiwa twisted his lips and stepped back.

Their lives were extended by a few days thanks to the salvation of the heavens. If there was anyone among them who knew about Legion, they would have shouted like this:

“Abandon your family and run away.”
