Chapter 76 Flan, the Magic Departments Flan, the Magic Departments

Nothing but appearances

In the waiting room on the 13th floor of the magic tower, one of the knight trainees was annoyed.

It was a delicate height that allowed him to look down at the ground from afar, but not enough to touch the clouds.

From the soft chairs to the interior of the magic towers waiting room, it was full of antique decorations.

Robes, hats, staffs They only care about these external things, and thats why they say the magicians have no substance.

It was a remark that Flan would have praised if he had heard it.

This time, another knight trainee opened his mouth.

If were going to face them, we should at least get something out of it, but the others will just hear that we won easily.

Since we can hear that anyway, I wish they would just forfeit. Why bother when the outcome is so obvious

The criticism of the magic department continued.

No, wait a minute, they cant forfeit. They have to be beaten to death in the arena. Did you see what that bastard said?

As they were talking, the story narrowed down to one person. 

The target was, of course, Flan of the magic department.

The atmosphere heated up like a fire scene.

I doubted my eyes after seeing him. He said it was obvious that he would pass the subjugation preliminaries, and that he would even win the whole thing.

Thats not all. It was ridiculous that he mentioned the Knight of the Flame. Who can talk like that?

Hes a magician, thats why. Hes never seen it in person He has no idea how amazing he is.

As the conversation about Flan continued, one of the knight trainees suddenly asked Ella.

Ella. What do you think?

About what?

About the guy were talking about. Flan.

Flan.

He didnt need to think about it.

A crazy bastard.

Ella clenched his sword.

A whip is the cure for a mad dog, and a sword is the cure for a mad magician.

After that, the insults against Flan and the magicians continued, but suddenly a female knight spoke up.

Youre all too careless.

?

The heated waiting room cooled down.

In the frozen atmosphere, everyones eyes turned to one person.

Golden hair and eyes.

Flash Knight, Ivan Rose.

In the silence, she said.

Theyre not fools. They might lose if theyre not careful.

Ha, Ella snorted. He couldnt believe it.

Ella grabbed his sword and pushed Ivans chin with the hilt of his sword. As if he was going to break his neck.

Lose Like you?

The other knights also sneered, but Ivan kept his composure.

Ivan. My unique ability is different from yours The magicians can never imitate it. Right?

Never mind imitating, just do your best.

Ill do it my way.

Dont be complacent

Ivan sighed and stopped talking. He knew he couldnt explain it to them now.

They wouldnt believe it until they saw it for themselves, and they wouldnt listen to Ivans words in the first place, since he was a second-year student.

In the end, Ivan sighed deeply.

Just do whatever you want. But I warned you.

There was one more here, a crazy bastard.

The moment Ella put his hand on the sword hilt.

Stop.

The knights heads turned to the entrance of the waiting room.

And as soon as they confirmed the owner of the voice, they quickly straightened their posture. 

Ella also loosened his grip with a displeased expression.

Your enemy today is the magician. Not each other.

Yes.

A person who was equivalent to a professor in the magic department. 

Regular Knight Alex looked around at everyone and opened his mouth.

The knight department lost badly in the first event.

At that, Ivan bowed his head. But the other knights stiffened their necks.

Yes. Thats right.

Alex said in an angry voice.

When the magic department won in the first event How much did the noble knights feel sad, can you even guess?

The other knights finally bowed their heads.

But their eyes glanced at Ivan with resentment. 

It was because of him that they had to hear such words thats what their expressions said.

The excitement of the magic department ends today. If a similar situation happens again no one will forgive you.

Alexs voice was sincere, and some of the trainee knights swallowed their saliva.

A normal victory wont do. We have to crush them completely, so they can never utter such nonsense in the press again. Do you understand?

Yes!

Lets go. To the press conference.

Alex led the way, and the trainees followed him.

Press conference room.

Alex stared at the dean of the magic department, Conette, who was sitting across from him.

The dean of the magic department

She had white hair on the outside, but black hair on the inside. 

And her strange inverted eyes. 

She was a magician with many peculiarities.

The knight of the flame, Scarlet, had warned him to be careful of that woman

But the knight of the flame is too humble.

Alex didnt think Conette was that impressive.

Even if she was a great magician, it was a different matter to judge her as a dean.

Alex looked around the magic department side.

The dean Conette was in the center, with a secretary on her side, and three professors on her right. 

There were no empty seats except for the four representative students.

He felt curious as he looked at them.

Whats this?

Did they gain some confidence?

Usually, when there was a joint meeting of the two departments, the magicians couldnt raise their heads. 

It had always been like that.

But.

The attitude of the people in front of him was somewhat different. 

They were tense, but they seemed to resist stubbornly.

Its a good thing that Scarlet didnt come today.

If he had seen those faces himself he might have burned the tower down.

Alex didnt like their looks either.

Oh, our representative students are a bit late.

Conette was the first to break the silence. Alex turned his head and looked at Eliza.

Eliza shook her head slightly. 

It meant that this conversation was not recorded.

Alex opened his mouth then.

I understand that they are late. They are at the age when they are afraid of defeat.

Conette smiled back at him.

Oh, I didnt know that the knight of the flame also had a similar reason for not coming.

Alexs expression hardened.

Scarlet didnt even attend the press conference today.

Dean of the magic department?

Yes. Im listening.

The knight of the flame is not a leisurely person. But I will convey his opinion to you.

At that, Conettes secretary shuddered.

It was a very rude remark. In other words, Conette was sitting here because she was leisurely.

What

Violet, who was next to him, also muttered.

Even if there was a big difference between knights and magicians, it was a blatant breach of etiquette for a regular knight to say that to a dean.

But Conette calmly parted her lips.

Lets hear it. The opinion of the knight of the flame who is not leisurely.

If you lose todays match, the magic department should not even participate in the crusade from now on.

Hmm, what does that mean?

In the air, Alexs eyes and Conettes inverted eyes collided.

Isnt it a forfeit win for the team that faces the magic department?

Alex continued calmly.

Students who want to face the magic department will naturally appear, and this will have a bad effect on us. I dont like knights who rely on luck.

Conette closed and opened her eyes slowly.

Is it a forfeit win or not well have to see.

Ive seen it for over ten years. Didnt you deliberately ignore it all this time, Dean?

A cold silence fell.

A quiet confrontation lasted for a while, and after a long time, the reporter Eliza broke the silence.

Its time. Before we start the press conference, I would like to thank you all for coming today.

At Elizas remark, Violet felt her heart sink.

The representatives of the magic department, including Flan, had not yet arrived at the press conference room.

Once the conference begins, all conversations will be recorded and transmitted in real time. Please be aware of this point.

At the same time, the wall of the conference room turned into a sheet of white paper.

This was connected to the record sheets that were posted all over the Merhen Academy, so that the students of both departments could check the conversations that were going on at the press conference.

Also, the conference can be terminated early.

Eliza pointed to the red bell that was attached to the ceiling. It was huge and ornate.

As we have notified you in advance, the conference will end immediately and the match will begin as soon as one side rings the bell.

It was a device for the superior side.

If they rang the bell quickly to avoid the conference, that would also be recorded and transmitted, so it was not an easy choice for those who were in the inferior position.

Then, I will start calling the representatives of both sides. And I will start recording.

The secretary of the magic departments dean pushed up his glasses. He was sweating from the tension, and they kept sliding down.

Ella of the knight department.

Yes.

Ellas attitude was very relaxed.

The leader of the four siblings of the second year of the knight department. 

She had a unique and excEllant talent.

Perion of the knight department.

Yes.

Eliza called the representatives of the knight department one by one, and none of them failed to answer.

And finally.

Flan of the magic department.

The moment his name was called.

The answer was cut off for the first time, and silence fell.

Flan of the magic department?

Eliza called his name again.

The magic department side remained silent. The tension that rose from the floor gradually began to strangle them.

On the other hand, the corners of the knight departments mouths rose.

Flans absence, who had guaranteed the victory.

It was a story that made them salivate just by imagining it.

The magic department, who was excited by winning one event, Flans arrogant remarks in the exclusive interview

Every time they saw those things, they wished for Flans downfall.

If he is not in the conference room even after calling him three times, he will be considered absent from the conference.

Elizas words were clear.

Ella did not hide her smile. 

Well, thats right, the arrogant magicians always do things like this.

A weak race that cries out for a miracle that can never be realized. 

Thats a magician.

Next, the magic department will forfeit.

Violet looked at the entrance of the conference room.

The door still showed no sign of opening.

Flan of the magic department.

The call finally began.

If Flan did not appear in this place until the next two calls.

The magic departments victory in the first event, their passion for the conquest that was ignited by him, their effort to hold a press conference at the tower

It would all be in vain.

They might not be able to stand up again if they were broken this time.

Flan of the magic department.

Violets eyes moved quickly.

She could not read Coneets thoughts, and the expressions of the secretary and the professors were no different from hers.

The most worrying thing was the expression of the knight department.

They either held back their laughter, or laughed out loud, or even looked down on them like bugs.

There was no respect for each other.

It was probably because the magic department had not proven anything. 

It was a bit bitter.

Flan of the magic department

The moment Elizas last call was about to end.

Boom!

A loud noise echoed in the conference room.

The door was somehow open, and orange light poured out from the gap.

Eliza narrowed her eyebrows slightly.

The eyes of everyone in the conference room turned to the entrance. 

And they soon realized who had appeared.

He, who had arrived after several calls, was as usual.

He wore a neat appearance and a calm expression, and he stood under the spotlight that descended like a halo.

Flan?

Eliza tied up the third call belatedly.

The representative of the magic department. 

Flan looked around slowly.

The smile that had spread on the knight departments face had already hardened.

Yes.

Flan answered casually and smirked.

Then, three representatives of the magic department came in one by one behind him. T

hey all found their seats and sat quietly.

Finally, Flan took a step.

Im Flan.

He parted his lips and called himself.

He also started walking. 

Not to his seat, but to the center of the conference room.

I came here as a magician.

It was vague to say that he answered the call, and he didnt sit down to say that he came for the conference.

A pride that would not bend to anyone, an attitude that would look insanely arrogant to someone.

But thats why he added one more word.

That one word that he came here as a magician.

Ha, Ella snorted.

Youre shamelessly late. What do you mean you came as a magician What does that mean?

I had something to deal with.

The moment Flan smirked again.

?

Ella doubted her senses.

They were not harmonious, but they had strong personalities that only made sense when they were together. It was clearly the rest of the four siblings.

And her senses were right.

Hi everyone~ 

Hi is informal, you idiot.

Behind Flan, Ellas student appeared. 

They all sat down with handcuffs on.

Everyones eyes turned to Flan. 

It was an incomprehensible situation without explanation.

Uhuhu

In the meantime, Connet couldnt help but laugh.

It was interesting. 

Reporters, knights, presidents, professors All kinds of positions were gathered here, and Flan was just a student.

But even so, the weight of this conference room was already tilted towards him. 

It was too interesting.

Flan opened his mouth again.

Before I visited the conference room, I requested a special pardon for the four siblings of the knight department.

!

Special pardon.

Everyones faces were shocked.

It was an unexpected word. 

Everyone stopped their actions as if time had stopped. 

Only the record paper recorded Flans words.

The silence was broken by Eliza.

Special pardon Why, Flan student?

The crimes of the four siblings except Ella were especially bad. 

They fought not only fights, but also chased and beat students who were magicians.

Why did he ask for a special pardon for them?

I thought it would calm down the anger of the magic department a little if I scolded them in front of everyone. I did it on purpose.

The eyes of the knight department widened at Flans remark.

But his words were not over yet.

Also, I lost because three of them were hastily replaced I dont want to hear such an excuse later.

Ellas head tilted slightly.

It was ridiculous.

It was nonsense and absurd attitude. 

Flan dared to assume victory against the four siblings.

As Flan finished speaking, the conference room was silent. 

This time, even the reporter Eliza was shocked and couldnt break the silence.

Finally, the first one to open his mouth was Ella.

You arrogant bastard-

But then.

Ding-!

Flan hit the bell with magic. 

The huge red bell roared fiercely.

Ding- ding- ding- ding-

The preliminary round of the conquest began.

It was less than three minutes since he showed up.

Whether its a conference, a question, or a remark

After burying Ellas remark with the bell sound, Flan spoke very slowly.

Do it with magic at the stadium.
