ositions except for the elder in the Magic world.
The reasons were varied, but the main reason was that he didn’t get too caught up in such things.
In fact, if he could have given up the elder position, he would have done that too.
But it was the King’s order.
So he was forced to take it.
“Had a nice trip, Count? And your son.”
Count Simon was headed upstairs when a magician approached him politely and greeted the boy.
The Count called out the magician’s name.
“Mion.
Bring tea to my office.”
“… I am not a servant.”
“If you don’t like it, leave my lab.”
“It will be there in a minute.”
The magician called Mion went to make tea with tears in eyes.
The Count looked back and asked lennon.
“What did you feel about him?”
“… he might look young, but has a high level of skill.”
“He turned 30 this year.
5th class and on the verge of hitting 6th class.”
6th class at 30.
Lennon’s eyes widened.
He was a 3rd class at the age 9, but from this time on, he knew that the growth wouldn’t be too high.
Lennon too would stay in the 3rd class for quite a while and even if he gets to 4th class, he didn’t think that he would take so long to reach the 5th class.
Nevertheless, he grew with the sound of him being a genius, so how talented was this guy called Mion?
“But the world scoffs saying that isn’t a big deal.
Even with being a 7th elder, I am about the same age as him.”
Mion didn’t have unusual talent, but Siegfried was young and already an elder.
Mion’s talent didn’t seem that great to the world.
“And Jamie Welton makes even Sigfried seem trivial.”
“…”
“Do you understand what I am saying?”
“Yes.”
Count Simon continued walking up.
“I am saying this because I think I know why you are here.
I am not saying that you shouldn’t be greedy for talents greater than you.
I am the kind of person who thinks jealousy and inferiority make people stronger.
In fact, I too lived with such a mindset.
But…”
The Count turned back to his son and said,
“You shouldn’t get too caught up in it.
With a monster at that.”
“… I have a friend in class who understands what is seen at once.”
The word ‘friend’ didn’t sound right, but he couldn’t call her ‘that one’.
“It is heartbreaking to see more talent than me at the academy that I thought was nothing.
I maybe be stronger, but I can’t sleep when I imagine that at some point they will be standing next to me.
I want to win.
I want to move so far that they can’t even follow my tail.”
The Count seemed slightly surprised at Lennon’s words.
He was a child who didn’t show much emotions apart from fear because of his fear of his father.
Even during those brief teaching sessions, Lennon practiced quietly.
Even though it was difficult, he constantly clung to magic.
He knew the reason.
It was because he wanted to show his father that he was good.
But what about now?
‘He is expressing his feelings in front of me.’
That would mean that the child Lennon is talking about is that great.
A smile formed on his lips.
He didn’t realize it.
Count Simon smiled and turned.
Arriving at the office, he sat down and suggested his son sit on the other side of the table.
“Sit.
So why did you come?”
“That… well… it was…”
“Speak out like a man.”
Lennon summoned courage and looked at his father.
It took a lot of courage for Lennon.
Clenching his chin, he took a deep breath and bit his teeth.
And said,
“I want to learn magic from Jamie Welton.
I came here thinking that asking my father for permission was the first priority.”
Upon hearing that, Count Simon’s expression hardened terribly.
“Black.
Do you think Count Simon will give permission?”
Kik!
Jamie had summoned Black to think about the Whole Body breathing technique.
The ability to move freely while using the full body breathing technique was possible for Jamie because of Black.
So no one else could do it.
It could work if the others had a familiar like Black, but it was impossible for a human to handle this.
If it exists, it must have been created by a dragon or high elf.
“You don’t think he’ll allow it? Why?”
Kik!
“You think he is cold-hearted?! Do you think he’ll act like that to his children?”
Kik!
“Rather, wouldn’t it be nice if he wasn’t removed from the family?”
Jamie was shocked by Black’s words.
Even in his eyes, Count Simon was someone who was quite cold hearted.
Still, he was also a gentleman.
Kik!
“Isn’t it more like a choice?”
A person who is kind to those who are the same level as him, but would mercilessly throw people away if he thinks they are inferior.
Jamie was somewhat of the same thought as Black.
“But I have a different opinion.”
Kik?
“Maybe he will.”
It wasn’t certain.
It was because Count Simon was someone who was difficult to analyze.
And the Count was someone who taught Lennon.
He was letting his son be here because there was potential in him.
“As you said, Count Simon is a man with a twisted sense of choice, but that’s why he will allow it.”
Kik!
Black shook its head.
“Right? Count Simon is the family head.
Lennon’s request will hurt the pride, but that means that if Lennon has skills worthy of the head, he’ll be satisfied.”
So Lennon will come back with Count Simon’s permission.
If not, no.
