Overpowered Archmage Doesn't Hide His Talent

Chapter 67: No Title

Chapter 67 [No Title]

Violet added one more thing before she left.

Youve made quite a name for yourself. Im amazed. Youre already in and out of the Deans office as a freshman

She lowered her voice and gave me a small piece of advice.

And one more thing, the Dean is not the only one in there. There might be a senior professor as well, so be careful.

Yes.

A senior professor.

It wouldnt matter who was in there, I wouldnt be nervous.

As Violet left, the huge wooden door opened by itself.

As I heard, the Dean was not the only one inside.

Conette was sitting at the head of the table, and there was a man and a woman on each side.

This is a senior professor. And this is my secretary.

Conette introduced the man and the woman in turn.

Quite impressive.

The mana flow inside the Deans office was calm.

It was the quality of mana that naturally emerged when magicians with a certain level of ability gathered.

But the three people looking at me had different expressions.

Conette greeted me warmly, the secretary was expressionless, and the senior professor looked at me with disdain.

Please, have a seat. Ive been waiting for you.

The Dean smiled and offered me a chair. I sat down without a word.

Its been a while. So this is the first time since the Agora Chess, right?

At Conettes sudden remark, the faces of the people on both sides showed a slight surprise.

Were they surprised by the fact that I played Agora Chess, or by the fact that I had a previous confrontation with him?

Either way, it didnt matter.

I nodded instead of answering.

I still kept the blank paper I received then. The ink was just starting to rise.

Did you see the articles that poured out after the interview?

I skimmed through them.

The reaction was very hot. By the way, I love this kind of mess.

Conette, who had been quietly laughing, asked bluntly.

Do you have a wand?

Yes.

I answered without thinking, and Conettes head tilted slightly.

The two people on the sides were also surprised.

Then I realized I had answered wrong.

My beloved wand, it was in the previous world.

I changed my answer.

No.

I see. Are you interested?

Yes.

It was inevitable for a magician to be interested in a wand.

It was not only because of the part that helped the magical ability.

Wands also had a strange corner that stimulated the collecting desire.

Think about the appearance. When the hunting competition is over, Ill give you one.

?

I doubted my ears.

Wands were not cheap in this world.

As expected, the other two were shocked.

Mana, circuit, category It was not an easy task to make it customized to all the points of the user.

The Deans secretary pushed up his glasses and opened his mouth.

Student, show some reaction. Its not just anything, hes offering you a wand.

What is the budget?

?

The secretarys head tilted slightly. He must have expected a reaction like thank you.

Then.

The senior professor next to me opened his lips and chimed in.

His name tag said Aaron.

Dean Isnt a wand too much? What if he chooses a shapeless wand recklessly?

Then Ill have to sell the academy land.

The joke eased the atmosphere in the Deans office.

The secretary, who had been expressionless until then, also smiled at Conettes words.

Well, lets talk about the main point.

Conette opened his lips again.

His eyes sparkled strangely as he fiddled with the chess pieces.

The performance of the magic department in the hunting competition was terrible. No, terrible is too much of a compliment. It was rare to even pass the preliminaries.

The reason why he offered me a wand as a reward was, of course, because of this.

The performance of the magic department in the hunting competition was terrible.

This expression was also too mild, it was actually hopeless.

Yes. Its a terrible performance.

Right. So, I hope student Flan can do something this time.

Conettes strange eyes turned to the senior professor.

Its just my wish, and the rest Senior Professor?

At the Deans call, the senior professor flicked his fingers. Countless papers flew towards me.

Flan, was it? You made the situation impossible to handle.

He looked at me straight and said. His voice was mixed with dissatisfaction and resentment.

Thats what I wanted.

Thanks to you, were all in trouble. Take a look at the papers you handed over. You have to form a team first.

As I hung the papers in the air one by one with my fingers, I saw that they all contained the students information.

While I checked them one by one, the senior professor added.

You know the whole academy is on fire, right? I picked only the ones who are called geniuses.

Sophomore, sophomore, sophomore, sophomore But they were all sophomores.

There was not a single freshman among them.

Id rather just prepare for the next event But you had to say that in the interview

Then, the secretary opened his mouth to the senior professor.

Please be more polite. The Dean also thinks we should do our best in the tournament.

I cant believe youre saying this again.

The senior professor thumped his chest.

We can do our best quietly in the back. We dont have to spread rumors like this.

An invisible fight is still a fight. You should also consider public opinion as one of the events.

So, do you think this public opinion is favorable to you?

One thing was clear.

The opinions were divided among the high-ranking officials of the magic department.

This was also intended, and a natural phenomenon.

In front of the students Both of you, set an example.

Thud, Conette slammed a piece on the desk.

The Deans office became quiet.

In this regained silence, I quietly opened my lips.

Who made this list?

The sophomore professors did. I checked it.

He answered sulkily to me, and I said one word.

Is this the best you can do?

What?

I gathered the papers spread in the air with my fingers.

[They piled up neatly on the floor without any error.]

First of all, Im sorry.

But the senior professor couldnt hold back and interrupted.

Its too late to be sorry. You have to take responsibility for what you said. Pick your teammates and get some results.

No.

I shook my head quietly to the senior professor.

I wasnt sorry for that.

There is no one I can choose from this list.

A silence close to emptiness descended.

After a while, the senior professor scratched his shoulder and asked.

What do you mean? Dont tell me, youre not satisfied with this amount?

Ive already decided. All freshmen.

!

The expressions of the three people turned stupid at once.

The secretary pushed up her glasses with a troubled look.

Friendship, loyalty Is that what youre talking about? Thats absurd. The subjugation test is an event that second-year students can participate in, and its hard for first-year students to handle second-year knight trainees.

The secretary continued in a calm voice.

Even if there were many teams like that in the knight department, Im sure all the teams would be composed of only second-year students.

The senior professor, who seemed to have come to his senses late, interjected.

Flan, when you talk to us, cut out the jokes. Theyre not funny at all and they only make me angry.

I dont blame them for not understanding me.

For students who are growing rapidly, a years gap is very big.

And to form a team of first-year students against second-year knight trainees, it sounds ridiculous.

But Im not interested in the finely crafted pebbles.

I want the rough stones instead.

Those stones, there are already three of them in the first year.

Puhuhu

Conette laughed as if she was amused.

Indeed, in various aspects, Flan does things that I never expected.

Her lips curved into a smile.

Then, shall we end this with a little more time to think?

No, this is not acceptable. Dean.

The senior professor slammed the desk, making a loud noise.

The combat event was still a match between first-year and first-year students. But in the subjugation test You have to say it clearly. First-year team members are not allowed.

The secretary also pushed up his glasses cautiously and joined in.

Freedom must be guaranteed within the boundaries of principles. You gave him the freedom to choose his team members, so you have to limit the grade to second year.

I quietly imagined the appearance of the stones that I would polish.

The ones who would rise to the highest rank, and the many dreamers who would follow them.

The moment that scene becomes reality.

The world will have already changed, and even without me, the magic of this world will flow correctly.

Dean.

I parted my lips softly.

At the same time, six eyes turned to me.

Among them, the mana that dwelled in Conettes eyes was strangely clear and mysterious.

Im sitting here right now

I dont need anything like worries.

Im not here to negotiate.

And I wont change my opinion either.

Hoo

In her private room, Trixie had just finished her ballet.

She was about to change her shoes when she noticed her ugly feet.

The knuckles of her toes were grotesquely protruding.

This mongrel was not beautiful even to herself.

Blue Flame was a blessing and a curse at the same time. When she was young, she burned her feet with the fire that she couldnt control.

Fortunately, the Frits family spent a fortune to make her feet functional. But they couldnt restore her appearance.

That was why she started ballet. Since her feet were ugly anyway, she thought it would be nice to have a plausible reason.

I quietly put on my socks.

As the daughter of the Frits family, I had no time to regret or grieve over such a fact.

I wiped off my sweat and opened Trivia.

I was about to contact Mr. Garth as usual, when

!

I saw some eye-catching posts on Trivias free board.

They were rather shocking.

[ Wow, crazy, the representatives for the magic departments hunting competition have been decided ] [ How bored do you have to be to make up such a lie ] [ Its true, its on the Agora board ]

The representatives have been decided?

I got up without realizing it.

When I came to my senses, I was already running towards the Agora board.

Ever since I was born into the Frits family, ever since I gained the blue flame I had a reason to participate in the hunting competition.

There were already a lot of students gathered in front of the Agora board.

I didnt hesitate to squeeze through the crowd.

Excuse me, move. Please move.

I pushed and pushed until I reached the front.

Haa Haa

I quietly lifted my head and looked at the list of representatives.

[ Flan ]

[ Becky ]

[ Louis Roosevelt ]

Becky?

I wondered why the ordinary Becky was chosen, but I decided to put that thought aside for now.

Haa Ha

For now, for now, the most important thing was that my name had to be on the list.

I looked down.

Ha Ah?

And right after I faced the truth, I froze.

[ None ]

That was all that was written on the last slot of the list.
