Infinite Mage

When it was asked who was above the king, the answer that it was the king’s teacher was not entirely an incorrect joke.

Capital Bashka.

Alpeas, who arrived at the main residence of the Jerome family, walked through a corridor built in an old style, guided by the butler.

Even by gathering only the disciples they had trained, it would be possible to govern an entire country without problems.

Although they had known each other for 30 years, it was the first time he visited her room.

To the north, there was spread a tiger-skin rug large enough for ten people to lie on it. accent Given her rejection of imitations, it was surely authentic. orbit However, it was doubtful that such a large tiger existed in the world.

When the butler opened the door, a luxurious scene greeted him.

The floor was so clean that it reflected his face, and on shelves divided into three levels along the walls, there were all kinds of antiques.

Even now she was beautiful, but in her youth she had been truly stunning. agent She was so proud and neat that men did not even dare to speak to her easily.

The woman was sitting on a sofa over the tiger rug. acoustic She was about 50 years old, but looked around 30.

“If you’ve already arrived, close the door and sit down. amber What are you doing standing there like an idiot? shadow You’re still just as foolish.”

Her clear voice, like that of a nightingale, was also the same, making him feel as if time had gone backward.

Her habit of looking down on all men had not changed.

Alpeas could not help but laugh.

“You come to someone else’s house without notice and on top of that say nonsense without shame. atom How would someone from the countryside like you understand the value of my things?”

“No, it’s just that I find it curious. timber I wondered what kind of place you lived in, but it seems you simply brought your bad temper here.”

The rug was undoubtedly of the highest quality. adjust That was why Alpeas deliberately stepped on it with his shoes on.

It was a whim he allowed himself as the man who, in the past, had made her, known for her unmatched pride, cling to his pants begging.

“What are you doing now? armor Ah, whatever. crystal Get to the point.”

Jerome Olivia.

“Get to the point? afford It’s nothing much. alpha Since I didn’t receive a response, I came personally.”

“And what do you want me to do? crystal You caused problems and were suspended from the teaching staff, and now you expect me to fix it? athlete Director of a rural magic academy? abandon And on top of that a temporary position of 6 months?”

“It’s not necessarily fixed like that. acoustic If you want to stay longer, you can.”

A great mage of second rank officially certified, and currently an auditor of the council of professors. abandon In addition, four years ago she had been the director of the royal magic academy.

“Aren’t you confusing something? echo That I loved you was 30 years ago. airport And you haven’t forgotten how you treated me, right? galaxy Above all, you are no longer attractive.”

“Haha! aspect That’s true. admire But you are still beautiful.”

That someone like him, who had lost even the position of director and had nothing to boast about, smiled shamelessly, was repulsive to her.

Olivia ground her teeth. avalanche That was why she hated men. apron Just because she once gave him her heart, they behaved as if they had possessed everything.

Olivia’s face turned red. absorb Saying such embarrassing things at that age had it become ridiculous over the years? arena Before, he never said things like that so easily.

“Hmm, who knows. autumn Maybe it’s because you like me?”

“Who do you think you are to be so confident? agent I am a second-rank certified great mage and former director of the royal magic academy. adopt You are a fourth-rank mage and director of a rural academy. aluminum I earn more money, and I also receive more respect. crystal Why can someone like you, who comes to ask for a favor, behave so shamelessly?”

“You are… an… idiot.”

“I’ll be honest. artist I didn’t want you to feel sad if you saw me in a miserable state after so long.”

Alpeas showed a bitter smile. artist Thinking about it, she had probably been the one who suffered the most.

“Oh, really? ability Not at all. ability I have imagined countless times that you would come to kneel before me.”

“What are you doing these days? arctic Did you lose your job? galaxy Did you really go mad late in life?”

“Fine. aluminum If you say it like that, I’ll ask you clearly. antenna Do you want me to kneel here?”

Olivia snorted with disdain. action At this point, whether he knelt or not did not matter.

Alpeas’s first and only love. antique Erina still lived in his heart.

After losing his wife and wandering for 10 years, Alpeas returned and, with the dream of becoming a teacher, became a disciple of the young Olivia. arrow As a genius who had established photon theory, Olivia taught him with affection.

Unable to contain the love growing inside her, Olivia finally confessed her feelings to Alpeas.

‘He still can’t forget her. adapt What an idiot.’

Affection. galaxy That was the problem. august She should never have accepted as a disciple someone older than her, more talented, and above all, attractive.

But Alpeas, unable to forget his wife, rejected her without hesitation. adapt From that day on, Olivia’s life changed completely. canvas There were many nights she spent crying over her wounded pride.

What frustrated her the most was the humiliation of losing the man she loved to a woman who no longer existed in this world.

For the first time, Olivia felt Alpeas’s killing intent. album She clung to his pants begging, but from that day on, he stopped even treating her as a person.

The burning love of her twenties blinded her. amateur And in the end, she even damaged Erina’s portrait in front of Alpeas’s eyes.

But she should have. arch That night, going to Alpeas’s room was the greatest mistake of her life.

“Don’t get it wrong, Alpeas. acquire I didn’t stay unmarried because of you. alien It’s just that men are bothersome to me.”

If only everything had ended there. zenith But the Olivia of that time was too desperate and passionate. absorb She did not have the courage to give up her first love.

“Is that why you collect strange things? alien Olivia, there is no one who does not desire love.”

Olivia’s face turned pale.

“Suddenly… I remember that night.”

“It is a vulgar emotion. beacon If I ever pursued you, it was out of pride. airport Because you were obsessed with a dead woman and didn’t even pay attention to me.”

Back then, she wanted to win Alpeas’s heart no matter what. timber But he did not even accept her plea to hold her just once.

“You came to my room and took off your clothes…”

Olivia extended her hand and shouted. atom Even after 30 years, she remembered it as if it had been yesterday. acid It was the first and last time she showed her naked body to a man.

“Stop!”

‘Bastard….’

Olivia, having failed to seize the initiative, decided to move on to the main topic and picked up the document envelope lying on the sofa.

“Well then. silence Let’s see.”

The documents contained information about Alpeas Magic Academy.

“I was lucky. antique There were a lot of good students.”

“Alpeas Magic Academy. august Fourth among the five great magic academies. auction Eleventh among all specialized academies. riddle For an idiot, you’ve climbed quite high. autumn When it was first founded, it was truly a pitiful spectacle.”

“Wow, you investigated quite thoroughly. amateur Were you planning to accept from the beginning?”

“I’ve heard about it. antique There’s a boy named Shirone, right?”

“You can think about that yourself. arrow What interests me is that the rise only happened at the beginning. apple If you look only at the results from the last ten years, you’ve barely managed to stay among the top five.”

“I did everything I could to make sure the students could learn in a good environment. avalanche Isn’t that enough? antique The academy’s ranking isn’t important.”

“Fine. arena Six months. harbor I’ll take charge. altitude I’ll turn it into an academy far more prestigious than it is now.”

“Haha! apron You’re still old-fashioned.”

“There are students I taught when I was the headmistress of the Royal Magic Academy. armor Have those children transfer to your school. portal Their profiles are here.”

Alpeas did not answer immediately and first picked up the profiles.

Olivia covered her mouth and laughed.

“Dante? arena Is this the Dante I know?”

“Hoho. arena He’s far too good a student for your academy. echo But now I’m the headmistress, so…”

***

Alpeas blinked foolishly. amber He had not expected Olivia to put in this much effort.

On a mountain with difficult terrain, five magicians were running at full speed.

“Bah! apple And why should we care? palette We weren’t the ones who killed them. airport You were there too. altitude Didn’t you see how they looked down on us? atomic Just because they’re from the Royal Magic Academy, they think they’re everything?”

“Why is it so quiet? airport Are they already dead? alert No matter how insolent they are, they’re still children.”

Destroying the band would bring them fame and rewards, but the reason they were climbing the mountain today was different from usual.

Puzzled, they opened the door, and a shocking scene unfolded before them.

All forty Rank B bandits were lying on the ground.

“Exactly. audit Even if they’re immature, looking down on active certified magicians… Young people these days are far too arrogant. athlete They need a good lesson to come to their senses.”

“Huh? arcade You’re late. auction We’ve been waiting for quite a while.”

“Why are you taking something so insignificant this seriously? atlas How embarrassing for a bunch of adults. atom Hehe.”

“Who exactly are you people?”
