I doubted my ears.
What? Master of the Magic Tower?
The Master of the Magic Tower, Isaac, who appeared as a villain throughout the original work?
Come to think of it, he has black eyes, black hair, and dark skin…
I glanced at his face and opened my mouth.
It's real.
I jumped up and started scolding the impostor.
Bonk!
That's right. I was riding in a carriage.
I hit my head on the ceiling of the carriage, sat down again, and began to protest against him.
"No, over there!"
"Yes." Mathieu, or rather, Isaac, replied with a calm face.
Okay. To be honest, I didn't expect an extra character to be this good-looking! But this isn't right!
"Then Henry! Wasn't he Henry's Father?"
"Ah, Henry is a wizard of the Mage Tower. Of course, I'm his guardian."
Oh no, crazy…
Yes, come to think of it, he never agreed to the word "father." He just called himself a guardian.
"He said he was also doing research at the academy!"
"Yes, I'm doing research at the Mage Tower."
Have you ever seen such a clever deceiver?
At this moment, I realized Dominic's feelings.
Did Dominic feel this way when he saw my abandoned building?
I have to be nice to Dominic.
Am I going to live with a deceiver like me…?
I looked at him and muttered with a dumbfounded face. "Somehow, you're so handsome!"
Then he smiled lightly and raised his big hand to cover the corners of my mouth. Even if you cover your lips, you can't hide your expression. Looking at his playful eyes, he clearly had a smile.
"Haha. I'm sorry for deceiving you. There was a reason."
No, what if you say that word so handsomely…?
I hurriedly opened the window of the carriage and let in the cold breeze. After taking a few deep breaths, I came back to my senses.
"I have one more question. How did you know Carat?"
"Carat, like Henry, is a wizard belonging to our Mage Tower."
He answered all my questions sincerely. The more I listened, the more he didn't feel like the emotionless villain described in the original work. Obviously, what you see in a novel is different from what you actually see.
That's why he's the Master of the Magic Tower…
Looking at his handsome face through the eyes of a hawk, I suddenly thought about the abilities of the Master of the Magic Tower described in the original work. I was only interested in gains, and my head was spinning very quickly.
Wait. If you're the Master of the Magic Tower, you're an alchemist, right?
The very alchemist I've been looking for to cultivate my mana!
I squinted my eyes seriously and looked at him. Okay, how on earth do I get the words out?
"You know. You deceived me, so you owe me something, right?"
"Yes." He looked at me with a look of scrutiny, then moved his gaze to near my neck. I heard a brief sound of grinding my teeth.
"Then… I have a favor."
He looked me in the eye as if telling me to speak. I was not good at talking and preferred to hit a fastball.
"You're an alchemist, aren't you? Teach me alchemy too!"
It is a widely known fact that the Master of the Magic Tower, Isaac, is an alchemist. Although I had never seen the use of alchemy abilities in the original work.
Anyway, it's certain that this man is a well-known alchemist, right?
This man might teach me how to handle mana. I looked at him with a greedy gaze. There is no fool in the world who will miss the first prize in the lottery ticket he picked up on the street.
If you don't do it, you should grab your pants or ask an alchemist you know to introduce you.
Eagerly.
He smiled lightly when he met my fighting spirit in my eyes. "Is that all you want?"
"For now." If I could do something else, I would be grateful.
"If you teach me."
"…?"
"Now I can intervene in your revenge drama, right?"
"…Yes?" What was it, it was a slightly puzzled question.
"I still want to be a good friend." With his characteristic smile, which was still languid, he looked at me. Even if you breathe, your face is dangerous, but when you are under his gaze, you can even breathe a little.
Are you flirting with me now?
"…It sounds like he will take revenge for me." I asked him if he had a crush on me.
"We're lucky." His dangerous face came close to mine. "The person you want to take revenge on and the person I was looking for are exactly the same." He whispered with an unknown expression.
Come to think of it, before going to the ball, he said that the thief he was looking for was going to visit the ball.
"So you mean that the Duke of Hesmann is a thief? Did he steal your things?" I scolded and cursed. "This is a complete madman."
It was almost at the level of achieving a Grand Slam.
It would be nice if the power of the Master of the Magic Tower was added.
In the original story, he tried to kill Lennox. Is it still the same now? Actually, I don't know Isaac very well. However, he did not appear to be cold-blooded enough to kill others just because his goods were stolen.
Suddenly, I wondered why such a friendly and handsome man would try to kill Lennox even though he was stigmatized as a villain.
…It's just a curiosity that passes by.
I turned to him and let go of my thoughts. "The stolen item must have been a very valuable item."
After a moment of silence, he nodded and replied seriously. "Yes, I'm always worried… It was."
With that level of motivation, it was right that there was a possibility that we would join forces and take revenge together. I looked at him and nodded seriously.
…First of all, since I have knowledge from the original work, it's okay to work with this man, right? I can continue to teach you alchemy!
Consider. There is only one way for the two of us to survive together. That he shouldn't act like he did in the original, dealing with Lennox suddenly!
I said seriously to him, "Then let's take revenge together. Instead, there are conditions."
His singing-like voice passed by my ears. "What is it?"
"When dealing with the Duke of Hesmann, you must consult with me unconditionally. And… "
What exactly should I describe this man as?
Between the same villains? Between the same villains?
His gentle, wind-like voice echoed in my ears as I stood still like a person with a fishbone stuck in my throat.
"…On the same side."
It was a simple answer.
"Yes, on the same side!" I followed the words and nodded.
Same side.
I also like the sound of that.
He finished the sentence for me and put a pure white bird in my dress pocket. "Then I'll contact you when it's dangerous."
"Yes?" He said again, arranging my slightly disheveled hair from the wind blowing in through the open window. "You're going to promise, right?"
I nodded thoughtlessly and then stopped. "Uh… Yes." I was once again fascinated by his appearance.
I hurriedly looked away from him and muttered to myself, looking out the window. "By the way…"
"Yes."
"Did you want to go to the eunuch?" (This seems like a mistranslation. Given the context of Lennox and Sheria, it might be about marriage or starting a family. I will rephrase it to "Did you want to get married?")
"Are you worried about that?"
Lennox started a happy family with Sheria in the original story. However, due to my sudden actions, it may become impossible to start a family now.
"No, I don't think I was going to do it." He smiled lowly and suddenly said seriously, "If you want, I'll make it for you."
I smiled wickedly like a villain and nodded. Yes, I can't see his children's farming flourishing!
