Chapter 75 – Suspiciously Rich

Elisha became a slave.

No, most of the leaders of the Sylvan Magic Tower, including Elisha, became slaves.

Originally, summoning a spirit is a death sentence, but… This is because the whistleblower, who was scared of the truth, reported it in the planning stage, so it ended in an attempt.

It can’t be a really fortunate thing out of misfortune for me.

If it had been the death penalty like in H&A’s original scenario, it would have been a situation I couldn’t do anything about.

But if you are a slave, the story is different.

In the end, wouldn’t it be something that could be bought with money, just like in Carla’s time?

“For that reason, please cut off the absenteeism, Professor Iona.”

“Yandel students… So you’re asking me to legally excuse you from school so you can go buy a classmate who’s now enslaved?”

“Exactly.”

“Elisha, who became a slave, became an attendant of a Yandel student and took classes with her in the name of an escort?”

“In the future, I plan to beat the cultists and monsters together.”

“Fun! Proceed!”

So Kara and I left her academy for a while.

More reasons… Well, Iona will take care of it.

***

Inside the carriage to Geff City.

Carla, who was sitting close to me, canceled her magic circle floating in the air.

It was because the Lindelheit family’s arcane magic circle class, which they were learning from Karla, had come to an end.

In fact, at first, I heard that it was a pattern that could intuitively convey meaning that only I knew, so I tried substituting Hangul or Chinese characters into the magic circle.

I thought it would be okay since it’s the same principle as self-suggestion… It was not strange

The reason was simple.

This was because, in the end, both Hangeul and Chinese characters are a kind of ‘character’.

You should be able to visualize what you have imagined in your head and immediately recall it the moment you see it, but shouldn’t you interpret the text after seeing it?

Of course, if you put one or two in the magic circle, it worked properly.

However, when you start combining in earnest, simple words become sentences, which inevitably accompanies reading comprehension.

In the end, it goes beyond intuition to the realm of reason, so it cannot perform its original role properly.

That’s why he is learning the Lindelheit family’s arcane magic circle that Karla suggested earlier.

Since it was a pattern that was intended to be used in magic circles from the beginning, it expressed various elements used in magic well.

Karla, who was looking at my clumsy magic circle with a proud expression today, suddenly stabbed her in the thigh.

“Master, master.”

“Yes?”

“I have a question, is it okay?”

“Tell me.”

She retrieved her mana from the magic circle she was holding, and looked into Karla’s ruby ​​eyes.

“I’m saying this now, but… Why the hell did Elisha receive the same sentence as slavery? I still don’t understand, but does Master know something?”

“… I have some guesses.”

The lord of the Sylvan Magic Tower tried to summon her spirit for Elisha, but Elisha herself had no direct connection with her spirit summoning.

Nevertheless, the fact that Elisha received the same punishment….

To put it bluntly, it is a false name.

She wrote a novel about the spirit summoning plan for Elisha and the bad rumors floating around her academy.

Seeing her once-rival Karla, who fell into her slave, her inferiority complex, which had lost her place to go, built up one by one.

This appeared in the academy in the form of putting pressure on me, the owner of Karla, and putting all sorts of shame on Karla.

But that wasn’t enough, she even tried to make me her subordinate….

When I succeeded in subjugating Edmerek, a feat unsuitable for a freshman, the inferiority complex I had accumulated so far ran out of control and forced me to participate in the summoning of the spirits.

All for the sake of gaining more power.

So to reign supreme.

… Roughly like this, he turned Elisha into a power-mad wizard.

He announced it again as the result of an official investigation and beat his slave brother.

It’s typical, but it’s quite plausible, and it’s an official announcement from the church union, so everyone must have believed it and passed it on.

But she tells Elisha directly that she’s just bullshit to me that she’s taking on her notoriety.

Even if it’s not that, I’ve seen Elisha many times at H&A, and I know very well that she doesn’t have a bad personality like that.

So this is a false name.

“Probably the work of the Seething Calm Church.”

“… Isn’t that the evil god cult?!”

“Right. They’re good at pretending to be normal people and sneaking in and teasing each other.”

If turbid unity is an evil spirit that has taken the place of appetite and ugliness, sexual desire, the seething silence is the master of indolence.

The problem is that he’s a strange guy who works harder to be lazy.

“The followers of the Seething Church are ready to do anything to win without fighting.”

Inducing a territorial war, being framed and punished, or making a major facility into a sea of ​​fire.

Most of the incidents that divide this side can be considered to be caused by them.

It is the Apostle of the Seething Silence hiding in the Imperial family of the Levantine Empire that immediately falsely accused the Lindelheit family of being a cult.

… I’ll have to tell Karla about the truth about the Lindelheight family’s extinction.

But that’s not the case now. Not yet.

Looking at her with a complicated mind, Carla tilted her platinum hair.

“Can’t we just reveal the fact that we are falsely accused by the Evil God Church?”

“Who will believe me? There is no evidence. Even if there is evidence, if you mess with it, it will only backfire? Being able to manipulate something like this means that you have a lot of power.”

In the first place, the followers of the seething calm are too spread out here and there.

The story of digging into the Calm Church that is infesting it in earnest and defeating the apostle is set in the Levantine Empire.

If it was from the Levantine Empire, he wouldn’t be able to stab him because he had no idea what he was hiding in the Church Union.

“So let’s just focus on Elisha’s business for now.”

“Ugh. I see. As the owner said, if you make a mistake, it will be more difficult. … Oh, then wouldn’t it be nice if I pretended to be a bit pitiful at the auction house?”

“Why?”

“Anyway, the owner is all true, right? However, if I, who became a slave first, is comfortable by your side, there will be no trouble on the side of the Seething Calm Church. At best, the plan to destroy them by enslaving them may come to naught.”

“That… That’s right.”

It was successful in turning the Sylvan Magic Tower into an empty shell, but it would be meaningless if the contents were intact.

If I show my care for Karla as usual, even if they find out that Karla’s mana core is intact.

Then, somehow keep me from winning the bid… At worst, they might try to assassinate me.

A good spy is also a good assassin.

“Great. Then, Carla, let’s do as you say. Wouldn’t it be nice to feel like a vicious slave owner?”

Hehe. I have something in mind….”

Carla, whose ruby-colored eyes sparkle, ignites her will.

His desires come out clearly in the meticulous arrangement of his facial expressions, lines, and actions one by one.

… You don’t think this is like a play, do you?

***

A few days later The Geff Auction House arrived exactly on the day of the auction.

It is still a colorful and noisy place worthy of being called the best auction house on the continent.

No, it’s louder than usual.

“Long time no see, Viscount Pilaf.”

“I didn’t expect to see you here, Count Rano.”

“I heard that something very valuable was coming out today, so I hurriedly came out.”

“Me too. Probably most of them here.”

Haha… I came here with the intention of getting one, but I might have to untie the purse strings more than I thought.”

Yes.

Because today is the day the elves of Sylvan Tower are put up for auction.

Just like the original Carla, slaves must go through a certain period of education.

But this time she put it up for auction as soon as it arrived… There is a reason for this.

First of all, since most of them are middle-level wizards and the tower masters are even high-ranking wizards, it is very difficult to manage.

It was not an individual deviation, but the point that the entire Mage Tower leadership tried to sell it quickly before the topic of summoning the spirit cooled down.

And finally, it is because of the image of the elf race.

There are plenty of fantasies about elven humiliation in this world too.

You are not a merchant if you ignore the need to directly train an elf who has a strong sense of self-respect rather than an elf who is already broken-hearted and obedient.

For that reason, the auction opened quickly.

And people who say they have some money flocked like bees.

What am I doing in Geff City, which is more exciting than usual.

Castings castings.

I stood at the entrance of her auction house, holding Karla next to her and massaging her ass.

“Black….”

Carla, half-embraced in my arms, with her head bowed.

She looks like she is crying or trembling with shame.

But what is certain is that a thorny vine pattern is engraved on the nape of Karla’s neck, and that she does not rebel against me.

The gatekeeper, who was staring blankly at me and Karla, bent her waist 90 degrees.

“Come on! You can go inside!”

“…….”

What. I came with my original face this time, so why am I being treated like a VIP?
