    Chapter Index

    The Altar’s magic didn’t seem to have a special system. The circuit flowed and wriggled like a bug, looking like a revolting but living organism. It was a technique that Arlos, who once studied under Adrienne and was from the Ashes, had never once seen even as a modern wizard.

    “I can learn everything using sections. In a week, I will be able to distinguish, understand, and destroy the structure and technique of the Altar’s magic.”

    But even so, Deculein was confident.

    “Is there anything else you want to ask?”

    Arlos, a respectable wizard, was curious, but she shook her head.

    “Stop bragging and just give me my money now. Hurry up so I can leave.”

    “…Ehem.”

    He feigned a cough and took out a stack from a drawer: three bundles of 1 million Elnes each.

    “Then, I’ll be going now.”

    Arlos took it and was about to stand.

    Knock, knock—

    —This is Knight Deya. I’m with the Deputy Director of Freyden.

    It was Julie.

    “I’m with a guest, so please wait.”

    Arlos changed her appearance to have blonde hair and beautiful features. It was the true appearance of Cynthia.

    “It would be unreasonable if your guest was a child. But this is amazing. How did you make this?”

    Arlos was still amazed by the recorder and camera that he made without using mana stones, even now after using them.

    “Hadekain hardware shop. Once he has the concept, Rockelock can make anything.”

    “I’ll continue to use it.”

    Arlos stood. As she was about to leave, she suddenly glanced back at Deculein. He was writing down what he saw through the camera.

    “…Will you be able to analyze the technique?”

    Deculein answered without taking his eyes off the video. His vision was brimming with blue mana.

    “The outline and form of the technique are random. But analysis and dismantling, research and destruction, all of it are possible.”

    Arlos smiled a bit. Whether it was bluffing or pride, he was a unique person.

    “Work hard.”

    Squeaaak—

    Arlos swung open the office door. Knight Deya, aka Julie, was waiting outside.

    “…?”
