795 – I Didn’t Take INT – 3

I have often felt pain as if my muscles were burning, but this is the first time I have felt pain as if my frontal lobe was being torn apart.

I am a Seonggol liberal arts student who is afraid of math and science and has never even looked at science. Mundol lived a life where he devoted his life to Korean language and history. They are nothing but pitiful beings whose only chance of employment exists is in ancient Greece or Rome, not countries in the 21st century.

What do you do with someone like that? The three primary colors, the moisture in the atmosphere, and the crust that has been pushed out—Are you asking about a difficult problem that is as scary as it sounds? And then you are still human.

‘I am the husband of King Mahjong, not King Mahjong.’

If Rize had been put in this position, a good answer might have come out. Rize is Trixie’s one and only disciple. Excluding our triplets, we are the only successors to Majong Majong.

On the other hand, although I am the only husband, I have no particular knowledge of magic. They are just parasites that take advantage of the wizards’ teleportation.

“Heaven is a separate entity that must be distinguished from the continent. As far as I know, even the spirit world shows a different form from the laws of this continent, so heaven would be similar. Isn’t it somewhat difficult to embody the existence of another world with the continent’s magic? I want to.”

“The earth is vast. And the sea is wider than the earth. The sea surrounds the world, so is it possible to create an infinite sea with only human magic? The moisture from the sea rises to the sky and falls as rain, and the rain stays in the atmosphere. No matter how much magic you use, the moisture in the air won’t even be disturbed.”

“The cracking of the earth is equivalent to a scratch on the skin of a human being. Would a human body split because of a scratch?”

However, it is difficult to remain ignorant even when asked a question. Rather than racking your brain as much as you can, and asking yourself ‘I think this is the case?’ Rather than providing thorough evidence. He said mainly the same comments. Rather than acting like an expert, I played the role of a thorough civilian audience member.

In any case, it is unlikely that the question asked the question hoping for a serious or groundbreaking answer. They were just embarrassed to have a distinguished guest sit down and talk among themselves, so they probably asked Ma Jong-gong’s husband as a courtesy to show his reaction of ‘I see!’.

Even though that courtesy alone tore my mentality to pieces.

“Indeed. From the perspective of a non-mage, you might think that way. It was an answer that only someone without prejudice could give.”

“That’s too much praise.”

I simply smiled at the well-wishes of one of the vice-chairmen.

I wanted to ask whether it was right to have non-wizards in the wizards’ forum, but I held back. For these hard-core wizards, it would be the ultimate courtesy to have a non-wizard sit in the discussion forum.

‘Ah.’

With a bittersweet feeling, I slowly turned my head to see Rin next to me looking at the dust floating in the air with her smiling face.

I envy you. I also want to lose my mind and run away for a moment.

***

The first debate among disputes has ended. The entire discussion has not ended, but only the first round has ended.

And after the first discussion, my brother and I took a short break in the room that the Duke of Kilanath personally guided us to.

“It wasn’t called Madou for nothing.”

As soon as I close the door, my brother collapses on the sofa. It was a similar expression to the one I had when sitting in the corner alone after playing with my children for 8 hours.

Still, she only smiled awkwardly so that she could understand her brother’s feelings. As if the word ‘magic’ was not given to the council for nothing, the members’ debate on magic was so passionate. So much so that it is safe to call it an academy rather than a parliament.

No, not even the Academy would be like this. The academy is a place where young students go to learn, but this Magic Council is where seasoned wizards who graduated from the academy decades ago stayed.

“It’s a little tiring, but it’s probably a favor from the council members. It’s the proud wizards who put me and my brother, who aren’t wizards, in the same position, right? They’re even asking for our opinions.”

“That’s right…”

Nevertheless, the reason my brother and I remain silent is because we know that this bizarre discussion is a favor from the wizards.

Wizards build their own world and have strong pride and unique personalities. I haven’t met wizards often, but I can tell by just listening to the anecdotes told by Trixie, the pinnacle of magic. As the lord of the magic tower, you see all kinds of wizards. Even if only 10% of the anecdotes are true… Wizards are not ordinary people…

In that sense, it’s fortunate that Rize and Trixie are normal. Sincerely.

“But brother.”

“Huh?”

“I saw the material that a member of the National Assembly was reading earlier, and during the second debate, the power of vibration produced by sound and the refraction of light due to gravity were discussed.”

“Ah.”

“If I ask you, can you answer?”

At those words, my brother turned his head and looked at the window without saying a word.

“It’s about the 5th floor. Should I just jump off? Something urgent comes up so I guess I’ll just say I’m going back.”

With words that seem to be quite mentally intense.

Regretful. My older brother chose to become a bureaucrat instead of entering the academy, so he could not even take a general education course. I can’t believe you’re pushing such a specialized and complicated topic of discussion on my brother. How harsh is this?

Even those topics were all covered by Trixie and her father. How can you handle the topic chosen by the magic masters? Even if my brother was a wizard and not a prosecutor, these are topics that would be difficult to open up about.

‘It won’t work.’

As I watched my older brother gradually leaning forward, I took out the communication tool I had in my arms.

“Oppa. Wouldn’t it be better if you stayed until the end?”

“That’s right. It’s a bit like that when an invited guest leaves halfway through.”

“Then just stay where you are.”

As soon as he heard his brother’s answer, he activated the communication port.

It’s not difficult to keep your position. The real problem is that we, as non-experts, are asked questions that require expert-level knowledge.

If so, just block that question. Then you can keep as much space as you want.

The reason the members of the Magic Council treat us so kindly is partly because my brother is a powerful figure in the empire, but the bigger reason is because we are Trixie’s family.

Then, you can take advantage of your position as part of Trixie’s family. We just have to overcome the crisis with the strongest card we have.

– Can everyone hear well?

“Yes, Your Excellency! I can hear you clearly from every corner!”

– You can answer small.

“Yes, Your Excellency.”

Introducing Trixie into the debate between witnesses. This is the best and strongest card that only we as a family can use.

‘It’s okay.’

A sight of over 100 people looking at a small communication port. Since communication is through a communication port, the entire body may not be visible, but it is a sight to see everyone sitting in a reverent posture.

As expected, this was correct. Asking Trixie is beneficial to everyone.

– I heard that they are discussing the paper I sent with enthusiasm. My late father will be happy too.

“How can you say such a thing? He showed mercy to these underprivileged juniors and showed them the way to go. Rather, it is something we should rejoice and be thankful for.”

– Hehe, that’s nice to hear.

The more my sister shows her smile her, the more her her eyes her her her sparkle as if she is honored.

When I saw that, I felt a little complicated. Even during the first debate, they argued indiscriminately and ruthlessly towards each other, but the madness was suppressed by the presence of just one person. This is the power of the name Mahjong.

‘This should have happened a long time ago.’

I felt sorry for my brother who had to go through this hardship when there was such an easy way.

At the same time, I was grateful. The reason my brother didn’t use the method I thought of was out of consideration for me. I would have thought it would be rude to contact another wife while I was on my honeymoon.

That must be the reason. Because my brother shows indifference in strange places and shows consideration in unexpected places.

“Lin.”

“Yes, brother.”

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I survived.”

Seeing that embarrassed smile made me even more confident.

I’m sure you’ll feel both thankful and sorry because I implemented the method your brother was worried about.

“Thank you. I also had a hard time staying sane, so I threw a tantrum at my sister.”

So now, instead of boasting about my virtue, let’s assert the same feeling that I also had a hard time.

I know your personality well. If you really appreciate it, you’ll be nicer to it without even having to say it. If I show condescension for no reason, my brother’s burden and sense of duty will increase, and the result will be something I never imagined.

– Really. If you have any questions about the paper I sent, please ask now. How many opportunities will there be for a leisurely discussion like this?

Meanwhile, her sister’s extraordinary consideration drew enthusiastic cheers from her.

***

The members of the Magic Council were as pious as believers who attended a mass conduct by the Pope himself. At the same time, they were passionate like fans attending an idol performance.

It may seem like an expression that can be used together with reverence and passion, but Trixie made it possible. Trixie is the pope and superstar of the magic world.

‘This should have happened a long time ago.’

Unlike during the first debate, I felt relieved and bitter to see the bad not even paying attention to me. If it had been like this sooner, there wouldn’t have been any trouble.

But what can you do? It would be too much for me to hook up with another wife while Lynn was on her honeymoon, and it would be a shame to leave my job to Trixie. Leaving what her husband experienced overseas to his wife back home? It looks so petty and empty.

However, in return for choosing what seemed like nothing, I gained peace of mind and body. It was right to leave professional work to experts.

“Thanks to the Count, I am experiencing indescribable joy one after another.”

While I was pledging to tell Trixie as soon as anything magic-related happens in the future, Duke Kilanath sneaks up on me.

“Thank you, Count. As a wizard, I have had an honor I will never forget.”

“Nothing to say. I was able to make unforgettable memories thanks to the hospitality of the Chairman and the members.”

Duke Kilanas smiled lightly at my words and handed me a document.

“This is our small gift. Take as many beasts as the Count wants. The Magic Council will be responsible for all transportation procedures and costs.”

“As much as you want, you mean?”

“That’s right. Actually, I was going to give it to the Count when he returned home, but how can I keep my mouth shut after receiving a gift like this?”

It made me smile because it was a bigger gift than I expected.

A blank check given by someone else is always beautiful.
