Overpowered Archmage Doesn't Hide His Talent-Chapter 68: I’ll see you in person tomorrow.

Chapter 68 [ Ill see you in person tomorrow. ]

It was late at night when everyone was asleep.

Becky and Louis ran into each other at the training ground.

They exchanged brief greetings.

I expected it, but you were called too, Becky.

Uh-huh.

Becky nodded at Louiss words.

At the same time, she hastily added a few questions.

Hey, Louis. Did you run into any seniors on your way here?

No. It was too late.

I, I, I, I overheard the seniors talking on my way here. I heard

Becky trembled as she continued her words.

It was like she was recalling a nightmare she never wanted to remember.

The second-year seniors they were so angry. The representative for the subjugation test was only chosen from the first year I ran here with my face covered.

Louis smiled slightly at the girls words.

That much? Well, the composition was quite unexpected.

Unexpected? Its beyond unexpected!

Becky grabbed her head with both hands and screamed.

Why why am I the representative? Hey, Louis. Do you know? Why was I selected?

I dont know. I dont even know why I was selected either.

They both had just confirmed that they were the representatives of the magic department, and they had no idea why they were selected.

It would be normal to have four people from the second year.

No, it would be standard.

They had no idea how this result came about.

I dont know I really dont know

Becky shook her head.

The girl looked nervous.

Becky had already had a lot of experience with Flan.

She knew that he could do things that far exceeded his imagination without any trouble.

But this was different.

No matter how outrageous and amazing it was, it was the first time that it directly affected Becky. freewebnove(l).com

Have you all arrived?

Then Flan appeared.

He had a neat appearance, as usual.

He appeared with a cold look like the dawn air.

Fl, Flan! Youre the one who chose the representative for the subjugation test, right? You only picked from the first year!

Becky immediately clung to Flan.

She started to pour out all the questions that were in her head.

Why didnt you pick any second years? Why is one person ineligible? No, no, forget about the other things for now Why did you pick me? Huh?

But Flans eyes never met Beckys. He called Louis instead.

Louis.

Yeah?

Right now, fight Becky with magic.

?

Becky and Louis tilted their heads at the same time.

They hadnt even resolved their doubts about the representative selection.

And then he suddenly told them to fight with magic, which was quite surprising.

I already know what youre thinking.

Flan said in a calm tone.

Are you really going to the subjugation test, why were you elected as the representative Ill give you all the answers at once. Fight.

He looked at Becky and Louis alternately again.

Now.

Louiss eyes turned to Becky.

The person who received the gaze quietly turned her head.

Are you, are you, are you crazy?

Becky muttered, shaking her chin.

Of course, it wasnt just her chin that was shaking.

Louis and I are in different classes Fight with magic? Does, does, that make sense? Are you telling me to die?

Youre in the same class. Remember that youre both representatives.

Flans red eyes didnt waver at all. Becky was still restless, and Louis asked calmly.

If we fight with magic will we know why we were selected as the representatives for the subjugation test?

Yes. I guarantee it.

Hmm.

Louis nodded and slowly started to loosen his body.

Beckys face turned pale as she watched him.

Louis, hey, Louis? You youre not, right? Huh?

Lets try it. Flan always had a reason. And he proved it right.

The girls face was so pale that it turned white.

Becky started to walk quickly toward the entrance of the training ground.

I I. I understood. I accepted it~ I dont think I need to fight with magic! Yeah!

Zweeek

At that moment, a blade of light grazed Beckys ear.

Hu, huck!

Becky panicked and flailed.

Meanwhile, Louis calmly proceeded to the next spell.

I dont have any ulterior motives, Becky. Just trust Flan for once.

No ulterior motives? Yeah, right!

She was on the verge of fainting from anger, but she could see the sincerity in Louiss eyes.

She had no choice.

What did I do wrong?

She forced herself to stand on her shaky legs, and quickly manifested her ice element.

Survival was her priority for now.

Zap!

A high-powered beam of light.

Louis fired four of them in a row.

Crack!

The sound of ice breaking filled the training hall.

Beckys ice barrier was no match for his power.

How can I beat Louis!

But the straight beam of light was just a teaser, as it started to bend erratically.

Refraction.

Despite being in the same grade, Louis was adept at using his light element.

The light beams that decorated the training hall beautifully were dazzling to Becky, who had to focus on defense.

She had no chance of winning against that.

No, she couldnt even defend.

Thats what she thought at that moment.

Huh?

Suddenly, various thoughts sparked in her mind.

She didnt know why they came to her. But she was realizing them without knowing.

Wait. First, first of all

Becky created a circuit.

A precise amount of mana flowed through the finely crafted path.

Boom!

The ice barrier and the beam of light collided again, causing a fierce explosion.

But this time, it was different.

The ice barrier resisted the attack.

Even if it couldnt withstand it, the location of its creation was accurate.

Huh

Louis tilted his head slightly.

The defense was stronger.

It felt like he was fighting a different person.

He put his best effort into his attack, but Becky dodged and blocked it effortlessly.

Whats up, Becky? Were you hiding your skills? Im disappointed.

I dont know! Really!

A fingers width.

That was the exact difference that made all his attacks miss.

If it seemed like it would hit, the barrier would block it without fail.

Am I not good enough?

Louis poured more mana into his beam. freew(e)bnovel

The light beam that contained excessive force writhed like a monster.

Zap!

A flawless trajectory.

The flash that drew a straight line like a painting rushed towards Becky.

More than five ice barriers shattered in an instant.

But.

At that moment, Louis saw it.

The ice spike that he couldnt see because the barrier blocked his view, cunningly crafted.

Stab!

The sharp ice spike grazed Louiss ear.

Stop, thats enough.

And at that moment.

Flan ended the situation.

An awkward silence descended.

Needless to say, Becky and Louis stared at each other blankly.

Flan asked them.

How do you feel, both of you?

Um

Louis rubbed his chin quietly, then looked at Becky and asked.

First of all, I have a question for you, Becky. What was that just now?

Just now Just now Well

Becky couldnt finish her sentence and scratched her head.

Later, she even pulled her hair.

I dont know. I dont know either! What happened to me?

Their heads naturally turned to Flan.

He was the only one who knew the answer to this situation.

Becky.

Y-yes?

What have you been doing all this time?

Me?

Becky lifted her eyes and began to recount her activities.

Sleeping, eating, attending lectures, doing assignments

I mean, what I told you to do.

Ah, sorry.

Becky quickly changed her words.

I summarized the papers. A lot. A-a-a lot.

The word a lot was not enough.

She had even developed some dark circles under her eyes lately.

The papers were very diverse.

The ways of handling mana, the interactions between elements, the methods of measuring efficiency

But as she thought that far, Becky let out a sound without realizing it.

Huh?

She looked at Flan with a look of realization in her eyes, and he nodded silently.

Flan, you. Did you have this in mind from the start?

I dont have a hobby of making you do meaningless things.

No, wow, no way, this cant be, thats impossible.

Beckys mouth gaped open.

Louis, who was watching from the side, muttered with a strange smile.

You only helped Flan with summarizing his papers Did your skills improve?

He murmured as if he had realized something.

Louis also understood that Flans magic skills were extraordinary. But it was a hard-to-believe fact even when he said it himself.

Just by helping with summarizing the papers, this much growth

If this was true

Flan, those papers. Can I see them too from now on?

The two mens eyes met in the air.

Louis saw his own eager expression reflected in Flans red eyes.

Flan nodded slowly, without a word.

The more assistants, the better.

The dawn passed quickly and the morning finally came.

Today was the day she had promised to have a duel with Flan.

Trixie would prove the dignity of the Blue Flame and become Mr. Garths disciple.

And one more thing.

Her goal was to put her name on the final list of the extermination event.

If she won the duel, Flan wouldnt be able to ignore her.

She had spent the night at the training ground.

She was so restless that she had to find the training ground inside the Fritz mansion, not the academy.

She had to get ready to go out.

Far away, the maids were coming one by one, and behind them, an unexpected man appeared.

Daughter.

Blue eyes that resembled Trixie.

The current head of the fire element noble family Fritz, and Trixies father.

Isaac von Fritz.

I heard the news.

She couldnt respond easily to that.

She didnt know how much her father had heard.

The magic department is preparing for the extermination event But our daughters name wasnt on the representative list.

He knew everything.

Trixie nodded quietly.

Its better that way.

Better that way?

The magic departments ambition is good, but you dont have to go out of your way.

Isaac said that and suddenly remembered his wife.

It was more than twenty years ago.

It was the golden age of the magic department, when the magician Jo won second place in the extermination event.

It was a moment when any magician would cheer, but the main character, Bella von Fritz, had a dark future.

She couldnt use magic after the extermination event.

She suffered until she died, even when she married Isaac, even when she gave birth to Trixie.

She never revealed what had happened, and she never smiled again.

Isaac said quietly.

Daughter, you remember the motto, right?

To burn something Burn yourself first.

Thats right.

His fathers face became very serious.

I think, the extermination event shouldnt be the stage where my daughter shines. If you keep doing this, youll have bigger opportunities later.

The extermination event shouldnt be the stage.

No.

To Trixie, that meant, if you go to the extermination event, that will be your last stage.

Thats the only way she could interpret it.

Isaac was worried.

He was afraid Trixie would end up like her mother.

I have to go. You know that.

Heh, you cant fool the blood. Youre just like your mother.

He gave an awkward laugh, but Isaacs face was stiff.

Trixie walked past her father.

The maids hurriedly followed the girl. Isaacs voice was low on the floor.

Daughter.

Trixie stopped in her tracks, but did not turn around.

You are the only one who possesses the blue flame now.

She slowly turned her head.

Her fathers eyes, the same deep blue as hers, reflected her image.

She was a flickering blue flame.

Remember this always. You are Fritz, and Fritz is you.

Trixie nodded quietly.

She closed her eyes for a while, lost in thought. Then, she finally took a step forward.

One step, two steps.

With each step, her stride became more confident.

Maybe it was the sense of duty that weighed on her shoulders.

Fritz.

She murmured the name of her clan.

She was Fritz, and Fritz was her.

Thats why, she had to go to the extermination ceremony.

She received a message from the trivia right then.
