Chapter 102 - The Nameless Wizard

 

Charles led Azriel to a restaurant near the Aurora Society’s underground tower. It was a place with a sign written ‘Golden Garden.’ Under the sign, it wrote that it specialized in Robas food. Robas was a famous dish made by cooking a valuable mushroom that only grew in Aucandor and the tenderest meat of a calf with a special sauce.

“This is a place where you can eat the second best Robas in Modjankle,” Charles commented.

“The second best?” asked Azriel.

“The best dish comes from the hands of a royal cook. If you want, I’d invite you to the royal palace…”

“No, no, that’s fine. The second best is enough for me.”

King’s every action was about to be on people’s lips. Azriel did not want to be rumored by unnecessarily being invited to the palace. As Azriel shook her head hard, Charles laughed briefly. He was wearing his hood to hide his identity as a king. The restaurant, Golden Garden, where he invited her consisted of small divided rooms so that customers would not run into each other.

‘Since Charles’ face is well known to the public, it must be difficult for him to do things outside his palace. But why did he come to the underground tower on his own in spite of that?’ Azriel thought.

A restaurant staff led them to a room across the hallway. Ash, who was accompanying Charles, did not follow them to the room again today. “I’ll stand outside.”

He saluted in a modest way. Azriel asked as if it was strange. “Sir Ash, are you not going to eat with us?”

“I’ve already eaten. Also, please call me without the honorifics. I shouldn’t be called with a title from someone who’s a friend of my lord,” Ash replied to Azriel.

“Oh, I see. Then, I’ll call you Ash,” as Azriel responded with a big smile, Ash zoned out for a brief moment. He quickly bowed and stepped out as if to run away. Charles clicked his tongue, watching it. Ash von Madriol had a little sister who was called the greatest beauty of the capital, Lexina von Madriol. For such a reason, he did not consider most beauties beautiful, but it seemed Azriel Esthera looked certainly beautiful to him.

‘Well, it’s understandable,’ thought Charles, examining Azriel. Her long, black hair made her, who had bright skin, look like a person made out of milk. She had small and delicate but vivid facial features, blushed lips and clear golden eyes.

“Wow, this is a pretty place. A room decorated as a garden…,” Azriel exclaimed.

Besides, when she smiled like that, her eyes made pretty arches like the half moon and her slight dimples were exposed, that looked so lovely—

“Charles?” Azriel asked.

“It’s nothing,” he hastily took off his eyes. Azriel was admiring the interior of the room. There was a rug made of silk threads looking like grass fields on the flower bed decorated with paper flowers, which made her feel like she was in a model garden. They sat face to face and ate. As Charles confidently said, the food was great even to Azriel’s taste which was accustomed to the dishes that the spirit made. While eating, Charles explained about the two people who would write her letters of recommendation. “You should know one person. The director of magic, Pendelok Palaios.”

“Was he a member of Aurora?”

“Yes. He’s a senior member. I already spoke to him. He is usually at the Chamber of Magic, so you’ll be able to meet him if you visit there anytime and say your name.”

“Anytime? Wouldn’t that disturb him?”

“That’s ridiculous. He’ll be happy to see you if you visit him. He might be too excited that you might be bothered,” Charles chuckled. Soon after, he began talking about the other person. “The other one is the Duchess of Rudimna. She is my aunt.”

“Is the Duchess a wizard as well?” she asked.

“No, she’s not a wizard. She wasn’t originally interested in magic that much. But now, she’s become a prestigious magic civilization expert,” saying so, his face turned bitter. Azriel rolled her eyes and asked carefully. “It sounds like there’s a story behind it… Can I ask what happened?”

Charles seemed to hesitate a little. “This is a closely guarded secret.”

“Oh, no. If that’s the case, it’s fine. You don’t have to tell me.”

“No, if it’s to you… You might know something,” he put down his fork and looked at her with serious eyes. “Azriel, have you heard of nameless wizards?”

“Oh, yes. To some degree. You are talking about the patients suffering from the excessive mana disorder, right?”

The excessive mana disorder was a rare illness. The correct terminology was ‘Unnamable Excessive Mana Disorder.’ The mana inside a wizard’s body moved according to his will, and the simplest way to reveal one’s will strongly was speaking. Thus, the more excellent a wizard was, the more the cases in which mana inside of his body would react automatically whenever he spoke. Usually, it was called rampant mana. A wizard’s spell was a method to put a leash on his rampant mana. In other words, it was a ‘spell’ to make mana respond to the name of mana instead of other words. But there were some people who could not define their spell. No matter how much they named their spell, the mana inside their body would not accept it as their name. Such a case was called unnamable.

Surprisingly, there were quite a lot of people who had unnamable mana. Despite that, it would not be a big deal. It was not revealed unless they were analyzed one at a time. They merely could not become wizards, but they did not have other problems. Even if the mana inside of their body would rampage whenever they spoke, it just thrashed a little inside of their body. It would not be revealed as magic. Commoners who did not receive mana-sensing training properly would generally not even feel their mana responding to their words.
