Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 326

Sephia rested his chin on his hands and made a decision.

The crystal was quite different from the ones Hyung [older brother or respected friend] had given him so far. First of all, it was bigger than the others. And there was something bumpy next to the crystal. It stung quite a bit when he touched it with his finger.

If he had received it from Hyung without a word, he would have definitely thought it was a defective crystal.

Hyung staggered severely while bringing this crystal.

His face was pale, and his whole body was drenched in sweat. He looked as if he had fought the strongest enemy ever and barely defeated him.

-Krrr (Hyung-ah)! [Term of endearment, like ‘bro’]

Surprised, Sephia caught Legion as he collapsed forward. He avoided Sephia’s palm and handed over the crystal.

-Krrr (This is)?

“This is a crystal I risked my life to get (Legion came back from the dead. Until now, it was just the pain of childbirth, but this time it was real. I never wanted to give birth to a crystal again). I couldn’t think of any other friends. This is for you.”

-Krrr (Hyung, why give me this precious thing…).

“Because it’s you. You’re my brother. So it’s right to give it to you.”

-Krrr (Hyung…).

Sephia shed tears of emotion.

The best thing he ever did was to swear brotherhood with Hyung under the chestnut tree. Under the chestnut tree. It was the season when the smell that widows liked the most was wafting, but he didn’t care.

Hyung left like that.

This is the crystal Hyung left behind.

He couldn’t easily dismantle it. Hyung told me that I had to dismantle it… but somehow it felt awkward. He had a strong feeling that he shouldn’t dismantle it.

-Krrr (What should I do)?

He wouldn’t throw it away.

The crystal was a rare item that increased individual stats. People in the world risked their lives to get even one of these items.

But Hyung had such a big heart that he sprinkled these crystals on himself and his subordinates.

Thanks to that, the stats of everyone who ate the crystal increased dramatically.

The joy of getting stronger by eating a crystal without hard training was indescribable.

Still, what was it?

This *jjipjjipham* [a Korean word for feeling uneasy or uncomfortable].

-Krrr (Oppa, what are you doing)? [Older brother, term of endearment]

An ogre, smaller than Sephia but with muscles about to burst, appeared. The differences from Sephia were her height, chest covering, and the earrings Sephia had given her as a gift.

It was a female Nubira.

She was also the strongest ogre warrior, dating Sephia with marriage in mind. With incredibly fast movements unlike an ogre, she was able to catch even twin-headed ogres or four-armed ogres alone.

It was known that twin-headed ogres or four-armed ogres had 2 to 5 times more combat power than ordinary ogres. Nubira was the ogre who could face such ogres alone.

Sephia fell in love while watching Nubira smiling fiercely, covered in the blood of twin-headed ogres and four-armed ogres.

She was really strong.

If he married such a female and had a child, how strong would the ogre be born?

So he immediately proposed to her.

-Krrr (I am Sephia, the strongest ogre in the Dusseldorf Mountains. I will make sure you never lift a finger. Please marry me).

Nubira seemed surprised for a moment, then smiled and replied.

-Krrr (Okay. But only if you fight and win against me. I can’t live with a male weaker than me).

-Krrr (I don’t want to hit you because you’re a female).

-Krrr (All the males who were beaten by me said the same thing. They only knew how to act like males. They had no substance).

-Krrr (I might be a little different).

-Krrr (Well, you’ll know if you experience it).

Thus began the earth-shattering battle between the two monsters.

Sephia and Nubira fought for 3 days and nights. They had tireless stamina like ogres. Half of the mountain peaks where they fought flew away. All the monsters and wild animals that had settled there fled.

They thought as they ran away.

I can’t live because of those monster ogres. Why do they always come here and make a fuss? A fuss.

Some wild animals spat on the ground while looking at Sephia and Nubira with the intention of abandoning their hometown altogether. Hey, damn it.

They fought so fiercely that they couldn’t recognize each other’s faces.

Their strength was such that they could break large rocks with one punch. Such fists flew hundreds and thousands of times at each other’s faces.

Three days later, as the morning sun rose, they stopped fighting.

-Krrr (You’re quite strong. Okay, I’ll marry you).

-Krrr (Thank you. I’ll make you happy for the rest of my life).

-Krrr (I’ll trust you).

That’s how they promised to marry.

However, they did not hold the wedding right away. This was because Nubira said that they had to date for a year.

There were so many ogres who regretted getting married right away.

When a female gives birth to a baby, her career is interrupted. She gets pregnant and gains weight. She can’t even hunt properly. So she has no choice but to rely on the male.

These days, females didn’t like that.

So, there were many ogres who didn’t have babies autonomously and had dual incomes.

Nubira was a young ogre with such progressive ideas.

-Krrr (Ah, look at this).

-Krrr (What is it)?

-Krrr (A jewel that makes you stronger when you eat it).

-Krrr (Huh? There’s such a thing)?

-Krrr (Yeah, there is).

-Krrr (Where did you get it)?

-Krrr (Hyung gave it to me).

-Krrr (Ah, the Lord. If the Lord gave it to you, it must be something amazing, right)?

Nubira’s eyes sparkled as she looked at the crystal.

*Give it to me. Then I’ll move up the wedding,* was the look in her eyes. After all, females go crazy for jewels.

*Should I just say no? It’s a precious crystal that Hyung gave me. No, if I did that, I might get my engagement broken. I have to please Nubira for at least a year.*

*I’ll do what I want when I get married later.*

Sephia, who had made up his mind, held the crystal in his hand and handed it to Nubira.

-Krrr (What is this)?

*You sly thing! Acting innocent when you know everything.*

-Krrr (Take it).

-Krrr (Yeah, take it)?

-Krrr (Yeah, it’s a gift).

-Krrr (The Lord gave it to you as a gift).

-Krrr (It’s okay. It’s for me. Maybe it came around like this to be a gift for you).

-Krrr (Can I really take it)?

-Krrr (Yeah, you can keep it if you want. You can swallow it. Then you’ll have a strange experience).

-Krrr (A strange experience)?

-Krrr (Yeah, a strange experience you can never have).

Originally, he was going to wear this crystal as a necklace.

But *a strange experience*. He became very curious. So he asked if he could really swallow it. Several times. Sephia said it was okay to swallow it.

-Krrr (Then I’ll really swallow it).

-Krrr (Go ahead).

-Krrr (Okay).

Nubira took a deep breath and swallowed the crystal.

He waited for a while, but nothing happened. Instead, he felt something rising from his lower abdomen. It was a very strange feeling.

Soon, that feeling slammed into his brain!

-The first jewel ‘Lilac is wronged’ is being dismantled.

*What, what? Where is that sound coming from?*

Soon, a whirring sound rang in his ears.

Soon-

-Passive skill ‘Lilac’s Diatribe’ has been created. You can now unleash a diatribe anytime, anywhere. The diatribe severely drains the opponent’s mental strength. If you know the opponent’s inner strength, you can reduce it to 50 percent or less of their power. You can make them end their lives by suicide.

Nubira’s face brightened. Like most ogres, she wasn’t very good at speaking.

But!

An ogre knocks out the opponent’s consciousness with a diatribe? What could be more thrilling than this?

She looked at her boyfriend, who was staring blankly at her.

*I want to use the skill. Even though he’s my boyfriend who loves me.*

*He’s the strongest ogre warrior, so he won’t be as affected as I think.*

Okay.

-Krrr (You little punk)!

Nubira’s diatribe began.

Sephia’s face gradually turned white.

.

Sephia hit Nubira.

Legion, Dreizer, and Shuttle stood in front of the Las Vegas 3rd District Guard.

As befits the guard of the city of pleasure, Las Vegas, the scale was enormous.

In front of the 4-story guardhouse, more than a hundred horses and carriages could be parked at the same time.

This was almost a battalion level.

The guardhouse does not simply guard.

It is divided into the Presidential Security Service, the Anti-Crime Squad, the General Guard, the Strike Force, the Traffic Division, the Criminal Affairs Division, the Investigation Division, the Intelligence Division, and the Security Division. That’s how much they do.

There were six such battalion-level guardhouses in the city. And there were separate guard branches in each area.

Shuttle looked at Legion and Dreizer. *Are these crazy people really going to do it?*

No matter how he looked at it, they were out of their minds. Well, they were out of their minds from the first time he saw them, so it’s funny to tell them to come to their senses now.

They say you can live if you keep your wits about you even if you’re carried away by a tiger. *I have to maintain my sanity, at least. Only me.*

Shuttle slapped himself in the face several times to regain his scattered mind.

“Are you really going to do it?”

Dreizer asked Legion.

“Yeah, it was something we had to do anyway. It’s just that the time has been moved up a bit.”

“I understand. All we have to do is bring out Mizet and the staff, and Mibaek, right?”

“Yeah. We have to bring them out quietly. At least until the day we steal the Duke’s slush fund, no one should know.”

“I understand.”

D-Day has been set.

It was the day of the Grand Prix, which determined the king of all the chariots in the country. On that day, all the gamblers in the kingdom who gamble gather. Not only gamblers. People with money and nobles all gathered here to enjoy the Grand Prix.

A huge crowd would fill this huge street.

The saying that it was one of the kingdom’s three major festivals was by no means a lie.

It was a day when the guardhouse was on high alert.

It was the most heavily guarded day, but also surprisingly lax.

Legion predicted that the security for the slush fund hidden in the ancient dungeon would not be very strong that day.

Shuttle asked.

“Why?”

Legion replied.

“I have a feeling.”

*Damn it. It’s just a gamble.*

So, he had to bring Mizet and his subordinates, who had turned into master thieves, within a few days. With them, the chances of stealing the slush fund were quite high.

*Asking why they became master thieves was a matter for later.*

First of all, if they took their salaries without working, they would be thrown into the coal mine as punishment. What was the name of the newly discovered coal mine? Was it Aoji?

Aoji Coal Mine.

For some reason, it sounds incredibly brutal just to hear it.

“Then I’ll go.”

“Good luck.”

Dreizer waved his hand and walked ahead. He grabbed the Tyrant’s Fang from his back and took it out. As he held the weapon, an enormous fighting spirit poured out from his whole body.

The guards in front of the guardhouse, who were directly hit by his fighting spirit, were horrified. They were startled and drew their swords, pointing them at Dreizer.

“What, what is it? Who are you?”

The guards asked.

“Where’s the men’s room?”

Dreizer swung the Tyrant’s Fang from top to bottom. A terrifying aura split the guard post in half.

Kukukukung!

It was an amazing power.

Inside the completely split guard post, the chief was eating lunch when he was startled and dropped his fork.

Food dripped from his mouth.

His pants were also wet. All of the chief’s belongings were split in half. If he had been hit just 3 centimeters to the side, the chief would have been split in half like the guard post.

Dreizer did not stop and strode into the guardhouse.

Aeeeeeeee!

At the same time, the entire guardhouse was put on alert.
