    ◈ Episode 104 (2)

    Ludger Cellisi had a teacher.

    A benefactor who taught him how to live in the world and how to use magic.

    But at the same time he is the one who caused trauma to his student by subjecting him to too much abuse.

    Ludger experienced many things while traveling with Master.

    Most of them were unusual and difficult experiences.

    Of course I do not deny that I was able to get to where I am now because of the experience I had back then.

    Still I couldn’t help but think sometimes ‘Wasn’t it a bit harsh back then?’

    Because of his teacher there have been cases where he has been caught up in various incidents and suffered damage.

    The same thing happened with Pantos.

    The beastmen are said to be a race born from the beginning as fighters.

    Among them Pantos is one that was born far superior to other beastmen.

    Even though beastmen usually have superior physical abilities there is no significant difference in appearance from humans.

    Except for the ears and tail it has more fine muscles attached to its body and its muscle elasticity is far superior to that of humans.

    In terms of appearance it was meaningless to tell the difference.

    But Pantos was different.

    Pantos showed great differences in appearance even compared to other beastmen.

    Even at a young age he was a head taller and nearly twice as big as other kids his age.

    When I was a child I was almost on par with an adult and now as an adult I am even better than that.

    Because of his size his movements were not slow or dull. He was even faster than other beastmen.

    His steps as he ran across the vast meadow were faster than a wild horse running wild in the wind.

    At the time the tribe had no doubt that he would become the next chief.

    But Pantos rejected it.

    There is only one reason.

    ─This place is too small for me.

    His heart was always toward the wider world.

    I want to use all my power.

    I want to put everything on the line and crash into it.

    It doesn’t matter who it is.

    If there was just a huge wall it was important to jump over it.

    Pantos also traveled the world challenging and encountering all kinds of challenges.

    As he wandered around like that he arrived at a small fishing village at the northeastern tip of the continent.

    Pantos stayed there overcoming his fear of water and pushing his limits by hunting whales.

    He became stronger. Much more than when I was in the prairie.

    A richer warrior soul and an enlarged ego.

    The direction of the arrow’s tip was none other than Ludger’s teacher.

    “Originally the wizard Pantos was targeting was my teacher. “In the first place there was no famous wandering magician other than Master at that time.”

    “But why did you fight instead of me?”

    “The timing was mixed. “I happened to come here when Master was not around.”

    “ah.”

    Pantos came to Ludger to meet his teacher.

    But unfortunately the teacher was away at that time.

    “So… you fought?”

    “I told you that Master was away but Pantos didn’t listen.”

    Pantos came to fight the strong.

    Ludger said that there was no Master but Pantos did not believe him.

    Because the man in front of him kept shouting that his sixth sense was strong.

    Pantos opened his mouth as if he was a little offended.

    “I fought because I felt strong. “That’s it.”

    Pantos is still confident that his judgment back then was not wrong.

    The moment they actually entered the fight Ludger showed off his incredible strength and defeated him.

    In the beginning Pantos had the upper hand.

    The hunting instinct created by the superior physical ability and wild nature of the beast people was not enough to corner a single wizard.

    The speed magic Ludger used did not hit his strong body and the coordinate magic he used was read by Pantos’ transcendental senses and missed.

    Nevertheless Ludger also managed to hold out without being unilaterally defeated by Pantos.

    The fight was so intense that Ludger’s magical power gradually decreased.

    At that moment Ludger used ‘real power’.

    When Pantos thought about that time he felt the fear he thought he had completely overcome come back to him.

    “I collapsed in an instant. There was no time to resist. “It was my defeat without any room for disagreement.”

    If Ludger’s teacher had not returned at that time Pantos would not have existed in this world now.

    And later when Pantos came to his senses Ludger made a suggestion.

    ─You have something huge in your heart that cannot be resolved. If you need help get in touch with me then and come see me.

    That is why Pantos responded to Ludger’s call here and now.

    The strong man who had defeated him mercilessly called him.

    And he said he would quench the thirst hidden deep inside him.

    “I had no choice but to follow.”

    Even when he suddenly entrusted a boy named Arpa to him and told him to show him more of the world.

    Even when I told him to remain quiet until the next call.

    Pantos silently carried out his words.

    It was because he was confident that only Ludger could give him true meaning.

    Ludger the person in question said it was no big deal perhaps because he was not very impressed.

    “No matter what happens Pantos will become the main combat agent in our organization. “The actual combat power ranking is 2nd.”

    There was no one to refute that statement.

    Not only did Pantos have an intimidating appearance but the energy radiating from him screamed with his whole body that he was a strong man.

    At least there was no one here who couldn’t feel that.

    “You each have a role. Pantos is a combat agent. In Hans’ case he is in charge of intelligence and intelligence. “Sheridan is in charge of development and Belaruna is in charge of drugs and pensions.”

    “oh. leader. “Then what about me?”

    “Alex you are my sub who is in charge of field deployment and combat in case of emergency.”

    “Is it a serve? The evaluation is a bit poor. “I still don’t have trouble wherever I go?”

    “Your greatest ability lies in being able to deal with any situation. “There is no one who moves as fluidly as you and demonstrates your abilities properly in the field.”

    “Ludger! “What about me?”

    Arpa asked raising his hand.

    In response to that innocent question Ludger asked a completely different question.

    “Arpa. “What did you see and learn while I was away?”

    “Me? Umm. Still I got to see a lot of things while traveling around the world with Mr. Pantos.”

    “Did you feel anything while watching it?”

    “well. I don’t think I’ve found anything like that yet. ah. “But I am sure of one thing.”

    “What was that?”

    “This world is truly beautiful.”

    A conversation that is difficult to understand the context.

    The meaning behind this conversation can only be understood by the parties involved.

    “I see.”

    Ludger crossed his arms and pondered Arpa’s words.

    And then he said.

    “Arpa is smart. “You can remember everything you’ve seen once.”

    “entire? “Everything?”

    “okay. From the moment I called until you came here. How many people did you meet just passing by on the street and what did they look like? Arpa remembers everything.”

    So-called perfect memory ability.

    That was Arpa’s specialty.

    To be exact it’s just one of his specialties.

    “Using this ability Arpa can play a role beyond the basic anywhere. So there is no specific role. Because he can do anything.”

    You can do anything.

    Those words meant a lot.

    It is said that everyone here is special in one field but Arpa encompasses all fields.

    Violetta swallowed her saliva.

    As expected just like the people called by Ludger they all had screws missing but I could feel that they were not ordinary people.

    “And the last one. “Violetta.”

    “yes?”

    Violetta did not understand why Ludger called her.

    “You will also be working with us.”

    “Me?”

    Violetta had never heard such a thing before so she spoke politely.

    “I just came here to give guidance to the owner in the first place. “I’m very busy with my current business.”

    “Isn’t the project already progressing step by step?”

    “Because clothing design is what I do.”

    “Didn’t you already finish it and organize the draft?”

    “that….”

    Violetta couldn’t think of anything to retort.

    To be honest there wasn’t much she could do about a business that was already on track.

    We have to check periodically to make sure things are going well but in fact everyone will do well without her.

    Nevertheless there was only one reason why Violetta felt uncomfortable in this situation.

    “…I don’t know if I can join in here.”

    This is her sincerity.

    Violetta realized at first sight the faces of the people gathered here.

    These are the associates of a man named James Moriarty or now called Ludger Chelish.

    And then I realized it again.

    He said he wasn’t suited for this position.

    “Why do you think that?”

    “That’s right… everyone else has their own strengths but I’m not the same…”

    “Violetta.”

    Ludger quietly called her name.

    “If your abilities weren’t enough or something else didn’t work out I wouldn’t have brought you here.”

    “…”

    “But there is only one reason why I brought him here and introduced him to everyone. “You deserve to be with us.”

    “To me…”

    Violetta opened her mouth with a trembling voice.

    “…is that really possible?”

    “Of course. “I don’t talk nonsense.”

    “…I’m not good at magic either.”

    “I’ve only recently learned it but that’s about it. In particular the aptitude rate for wind attribute magic was very high. “It’s because the teachings are discontinued but it will change when you learn new magic.”

    “My status is low.”

    “I don’t look at people based on the trivial criteria of social status. “Seeing is only one ability.”

    “But I…”

    I couldn’t think of any more excuses.

    Rather it would be more accurate to say that he was speechless at Ludger’s words of acknowledgment of him.

    Violetta’s gaze turned downward.

    Ludger who was watching the scene turned his back on the wall.

    “You have a complicated face. good night. Then do it like this. There is no need to say such useless words. “You only need to answer one question.”

    Violetta’s gaze which had been looking towards her toes turned back to Ludger.

    He was now staring at himself with an unwavering gaze.

    “Would you like to join us?”

    By answering that question Violetta was able to understand why she was overcome by strange emotions while she was here.

    It was a yearning.

    As he stood here he thought that he wanted to be with them.

    However his status was low and he only learned magic over his shoulder. Would I really be suitable for this position? Wouldn’t it be a disgrace to this place just by standing there?

    But Ludger didn’t do that.

    Rather he invited her to join him directly.

    How can I reject those words that seem to see right through this person’s heart?

    still.

    The lips did not separate.

    I hadn’t noticed it until now but once I became aware of it my situation and self-esteem were holding me back.

    Did you feel that?

    Ludger spoke quietly and softly.

    “I want to hear your truth.”

    “….”

    Those words were carefully pushed onto her back as she hesitated.

    Violetta took a moment to catch her breath. Haha. I breathed in and out and composed myself.

    Even then Ludger quietly waited for her answer.

    Violetta who regained her composure smiled brightly at Ludger and said.

    “great.”

    As a result Violetta became the leader of the Black Rose Women and also a member of the organization.

    “good night.”

    Ludger nodded with a satisfied face.

    Then I took a quick glance at the audience.

    These are people who have gathered only the best of all the people they know.

    It’s a shame that not all of them came but this is more than expected.

    “Then let’s get to know each other’s faces and skills and go straight to the strategy meeting.”

    And says:

    The reason he gathered them together.

    “We are going to rob the Kunst auction house that is opening soon.”
