Dragon Genesis: I Can Create Dragons-Chapter 121: I really taught him well.
"I just thought you had higher standards, considering you seemed to look down on my Magic Instructor, and now I am just confused."
Kael frowned as he pointed at Elira, who was sitting in the viewing area.
"My instructor is 10 years younger than him, and I can assure you she can roast ten of him alive without even looking at them.
Does someone like him really represent the standard of Xenthalor Mages? And if that really is the case, then does the Tower Head really have the right to look down on my Instructor, who is clearly better than him in every possible way?
I was told the Xenthalor Empire was the home to the greatest Mage in all of Nerathis, but…
My instructor just seems better?"
Kael tilted his head in confusion, and Arlan, who heard those words, grinned proudly. At the same time, he was also somewhat pitying Tower Head Selene for being targeted by a shameless bastard like Kael.
After all, both he and Kael knew what sort of person Elira was.
She was one of the most talented mages of Drakthar, someone who managed to become a Court Mage—a position reserved for Eighth Circle Mages or above—despite only being a Seventh Circle Mage.
Yes, she was so exceptional that the King decided to change the rules for her sake, and no other mages complained about the favorable treatment because everyone knew Elira deserved it.
She was a genius.
Her magic knowledge was so vast that she had solved magic theories and created formulas that even the mages above her level had a difficult time understanding.
More than once, she had helped Eighth or even Ninth Circle Mages solve problems they couldn't.
Almost all the Ninth Circle Mages in Drakthar knew her personally and would often come chat with her.
She was one of Drakthar's Prodigies, loved and respected by almost all the mages here.
Of course, Xenthalor had such mages too, in greater numbers at that. Some of their mages were even more talented than Elira, but none of them were here.
All of them were Xenthalor's pride.
They would never attend a banquet without certain preparations, especially not when they were invited just two days before the banquet was scheduled.
It wasn't just Xenthalor; other forces didn't send any noteworthy youngsters either, and Kael used that to his advantage.
Comparing Elira to a normal mage…
It was a nonsensical thought.
She was one of Drakthar's best and should only be compared to Xenthalor's best.
Using her to shame the Magic Empire was outright shameless, but…
Kael didn't care.
He didn't have to care.
After all, he was still just a clueless hero who came to this world a few weeks ago.
He was only innocently pointing out what he was observing.
'Cheeky brat.'
Arlan's grin widened as he glanced at Kael.
"You think that because you have yet to see Xenthalor's true might," Selene answered.
"Well, I sure hope that's the case. Because if this was the best you people could offer, I would have a difficult time protecting your people.
So much for acting all arrogant, eh?"
"Kael, manners."
Elira called out.
"Ah, I didn't intend to say the last words out loud. I apologize if unknowingly I offended you, Tower Head Selene."
Kael slightly bowed his head, and Elira's grin widened.
'I really taught him well.'
She nodded to herself, satisfied.
It wasn't just her. Her brother and the rest of Drakthar's nobles had light smiles on their faces as well. Almost all of them were barely holding back their urge to laugh out loud, and Albert, who could sense it all and noticed how Tower Head Selene was glaring at him, shouted out loud,
"You sure are an arrogant one! Has the Drakthar Kingdom not taught you any manners!?"
"I thought I was summoned to fight? Should I learn how to eat first instead?
Is that what you did for the first 30 years of your life? If that's the case, that explains your current progress.
Motivational indeed."
Kael praised.
The bashing skills he had learned from Mark weren't a waste.
"Fight, is it? That's what you so desperately want, don't you?"
Albert's smile turned menacing.
"Then that is what you will get."
He declared coldly, prepared to crush the so-called Hero in every way possible.
"Let our magic do the talking!"
He declared as four magic circles appeared around him.
Kael did the same and summoned two magic circles. Clearly, he was outmatched, but he didn't seem to care.
Arlan's face turned serious as well.
"Begin."
He announced, and the moment he did, Albert cast his first spell.
The very air trembled as suddenly, Kael heard a whisper.
"Be prepared."
"Huh?"
Kael frowned as he glanced in the direction where the voice came from, but he couldn't see anyone. This, however, was only the start.
"This is the end."
"You are done for."
"You made a mistake."
"Surrender."
"Give up."
Tens, hundreds of different whispers came from different directions, dulling Kael's senses and making it difficult for him to understand what was going on.
Fwoosh
Then suddenly, dense mist surrounded the battlefield, hindering his vision. Albert's figure became a simple blur.
'A Wind Mage, huh…'
Kael realized it.
'Poor guy.'
He, however, just shrugged as his eyes turned golden and, once again,
[Name: Albert Bannerman]
The mage's information appeared in front of him, showing him where he was.
Yes, all the whispering was annoying, but Kael knew it would stop once he dealt with the mage.
Therefore, he dashed forward, or he tried to, Enjoy new adventures from novelbuddy
But then,
'Father, be careful.'
Igni warned.
'The wind ahead has been weaved into sharp threads, it would slice you if run past them.'
'What…?'
Kael's expression changed.
'I do not see anything.'
'They are difficult to see with human eyes, and the whispering is distracting your mind, making it impossible to see them.'
Kael's face turned grim.
'A Fourth Circle Mage, huh…
He made sure I cannot close distance.'
He realized it.
Albert might not be the most talented mage, but he was definitely an experienced one.
'What would you have done if you were in my position?'
Kael questioned, wanting another perspective.
'Burn it down.'
'…right.'
Kael very quickly realized his mistake.
Asking the Fire Dragon was outright foolish.
He had to come up with something on his own.
