Chapter 175 - The Mesmerized Crowd

 

Guided by the stars, hundreds of marble pieces floated in the air one by one. The sleek slices oriented themselves vertically and surrounded Azriel. Then, golden stars were arranged again on those slices. Embodying the purpose of reacting when approached by those with hostility, hundreds of constellations manifested. She closed her eyes halfway. From now on was the territory of magic. Gravitation was assigned to all of the stars that composed the constellations. The stars emanated golden light and indiscriminately drew in natural mana. The rapid migration of mana caused the wind to stir. Her hair and robe fluttered. The gathered people were also surprised and grabbed their hems. With her dragon eye, Azriel scanned all of the pieces floating around with her and checked if all had enough mana. After she was done checking, she said, “Esthera.”

Low exclamations broke out among the wizards. They could also see the golden lines that formed in the air as the magic was invoked. The light began to move on the sleek surfaces of the marble stones. All at once, Lemm letters and patterns were engraved on hundreds of pieces. The completed relics carried dim golden light, which was soon absorbed by the relics. The completed pieces silently landed on the floor. Only the last relic fell with a clatter. Finally, Azriel loosened her focus and lifted her head. After catching her breath for a moment, she smiled at the wizards.

“You can distribute these to each targeted person. If they put it on their body, I’ll receive a signal when someone hostile approaches them.” Nobody gave a response. Tilting her head, Azriel repeated, “Umm, did you hear me? You can test these relics if you’re worried about their performance.”

Nak suddenly appeared among the mesmerized wizards. With a trembling hand, he picked up a relic that was close to him. Touching it, he stared at her. “…Who are you?”

“I am a wizard just like you.” Azriel hesitated for a moment and added a few words, “I am a wizard who merely received some more information than others and met a good teacher.”

A variety of wizards of different genders and ages looked at Azriel with the same vacant eyes. Azriel felt awkward receiving such attention. She fiddled with the hem of her robe and carefully spoke. “Do you have any questions by any chance? I can’t teach you every little detail, but I can teach you to some degree—”

Even before she could finish her sentence, all of the wizards raised their hands with desperate eyes. Even though he dropped his glasses while raising his hand, he ardently looked at her without picking them up. Azriel, who did not expect everyone to raise a hand, was disconcerted and hesitated. At last, she called Nak, whom she was most familiar with. “M-Mr. Naham? Do you have a question?”

“Miss Esthera, these magical relics seem to be semi-permanent and rechargeable like ancient relics. Is it true?” he said.

It was a question that she could not answer easily. She lightly nodded. “Yes, it is.”

“…”

Nak piercingly stared at the relics. There was silence among the wizards. Then, they all raised their hands again as if to compete with each other. As if raising hands was not enough, some were even jumping.

‘It’s like I’ve become a popular professor in college.’

Azriel had not been to college, but this was what it felt like according to what she saw in books. She was dazed. Since they raised their hands so passionately and desperately, she could not ignore them. She carefully raised her finger and pointed at a woman who was jumping to the point that her hair was fluttering.

“Umm, the woman in a navy robe?” she called.

“Thank you! Miss Esthera, the magic you just used—”

“No, no. The one with the brown hair in the front… Yes, her. I’m sorry, she raised her hand first,” Azriel said.

‘“Me? Yes!” she expressed joy with all of her body and hurriedly asked, “Miss Esthera, are you the only one who can use the magic you just used?”

It was a sharp and fundamental question.
