Chapter 266: Aspiring to Become a Great Magician at the Age of

"Name?"

"Lee Ye."

"gender?"

"Hmm...if I remember correctly, it was a male."

"Mr. Li is from China? But why doesn't he have any ID?"

"I'm going for the global visa-free option."

"I see--"

Bang bang.

The registration forms of just a few pages were put together, making a crisp sound on the desktop. The blond middle-aged magician in charge of the review put away the record form that registered Li Ye's identity.

Then he looked at the white-haired young man across the table. His magical qualifications were fully qualified, but his unknown origin was enough to reject Li Ye, and Li Ye's attainments in magic were nothing.

A pure layman, although he understands a little bit of magic, it is not much.

Her level of illiteracy made the middle-aged man feel as if he was seeing himself who knew nothing.

But this will not affect anything. Li Ye's magical attainments are enough to pass the Clock Tower's admission review.

The quality of his magic circuit is absolutely top-notch. Whether it is the amount of magic generated, efficiency, or total amount, Li Ye can be called a genius.

Although he is a first-generation magician without a family and has not even started to create seals representing his magic subjects, at this level, Li Ye can definitely call himself a genius.

What is more important is the color of the soul.

The Clock Tower's review of applicants is based on two factors: the quality of the magic circuit and the color of the soul.

As the first generation magician, Li Ye's magic circuits are of higher quality and quantity than those of normal people. Even those magician families with generations of inheritance cannot compare to him.

But the color of Li Ye's soul is absolutely dark——

The attributes represented are a relatively rare set of five elements.

The brief thought ended here. The middle-aged man looked at Li Ye and said, "Mr. Li Ye, I wonder if anyone has told you that if you don't have a recommendation or invitation, you have to take an exam and pay tuition to join the Clock Tower."

"Ok?"

Li Ye, who was penniless and illiterate about modern magic, smiled slightly.

...............

That was a little later.

“Weber—”

Li Ye found Waver Velvet again and grasped the young Waver Velvet's hands, and said sincerely: "Can you lend me some money? And help me review magic theory and so on!

Of course! I won't let you help me for nothing. You can come to me whenever you have trouble. Although I'm not good at magic, I can still solve problems! "

"Eh?"

Weber Velvet, who had been separated from Li Ye for some time, did not expect to meet Li Ye again, or to be visited by Li Ye.

Meeting Li Ye again was a small matter; what was more important was the request made by Li Ye.

The fact that Li Ye failed to successfully join the Clock Tower was within Weber Velvet's expectations. After all, he didn't even have a recommendation, so if he wanted to enroll, he could only take an exam.

But Li Ye's tuition fee did not exceed Weber Velvet's expectations.

"Actually I don't have much money, but if you want to know the theory of magic, I can help you."

The young boy, Weber Velvet, whose family lineage was only three generations old, said awkwardly, "But the tuition fee can only be taken care of by you, Mr. Li."

"No problem!"

Li Ye smiled and said, "By the way..."

"Weber Velvet, what are you doing?"

Before Li Ye could speak, the serious words coming from not far away startled the young boy Weber Velvet.

That voice, without a doubt—

"Teacher Kenneth!"

The young boy Weber Velvet, who was struggling with Li Ye, turned around and looked at the majestic blond man - Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald!
The head of the Archibald family, a family of magicians that has continued for nine generations, is also a talented magician with outstanding achievements.

He is a first-class instructor in the Necromancer Department (Ulyphis) at the Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Magic Association that commands magicians all over the world.

Kayneth is also one of the Twelve Lords of the Clock Tower and the Lord of the El-Melloi faction.

It is a family that is at the top among all the monarchs, and it controls and manages the Mineral Department (Kishua)!

More importantly, Kenneth is Webber Velvet's ideal as a magician.

The boy's eyes were filled with a gleam of longing.

The boy, who was only fifteen years old, had developed a yearning for this legendary magician even though it was his first time attending the Clock Tower.

Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald showed talent that was enough to be called a child prodigy when he was a student, and was the youngest person in the history of the spiritualist discipline to become a lecturer.

He is a magician who fully embodies the word "genius".

No, [Genius] was just a natural achievement for Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald.

Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald, a blond man with slicked back hair, is so intimidating without even getting angry that no one would underestimate him even if he was wearing simple clothes.

"Who are you?" Kenneth glanced at the white-haired young man next to Weber Velvet with a cold expression. If Weber Velvet was alone, Kenneth would not speak to him.

But Liye's presence made Kenneth subconsciously look at him a few more times. As an aristocratic monarch (Lord), the monarch of the El-Melloi faction, Kenneth El-Melloi Archipelago, always showed contempt for magicians with shallow family backgrounds like Waver Velvet.

What's more, Li Ye couldn't even join the Clock Tower and was not even considered a magician.

But even so, Kenneth still noticed Li Ye's existence. As someone who naturally enjoyed the title of genius, he smelled a similar scent.

That's how it should be [Genius]

"Hello, I'm Li Ye, a foreigner who came here to study."

As Waver Velvet spoke, Li Ye, who knew the identity of the person in front of him, smiled and said, "He is someone who aspires to become a magician, although he is not one yet."

Li Ye also knew something about Kenneth's identity. Not only Kenneth, but also Weber Velvet, Li Ye knew him well.

Holy Grail War

Although it is impossible to determine whether it is a parallel world, after all, these two people may exist in every world, but what Li Ye can be sure of is the continuation of the Holy Grail War.

A magic ritual in Fuyuki City in Japan created a great magic ritual called the "Great Holy Grail", which uses the Great Holy Grail to summon heroic spirits to fight the Holy Grail War.

Its victor can use the Holy Grail to grant a wish.

But Li Ye could not be sure what the Holy Grail War in this world would be like. If it was just a change in time, then Fuyuki would only hold one Holy Grail War, which would be the first and last Holy Grail War in 2004.

If the [world] changes, then the scale and frequency of the Holy Grail War may be close to what exists in Li Ye's memory.

【Fourth Holy Grail War】

The Fourth Holy Grail War took place in 1994. The magician chosen by the Greater Holy Grail could summon servants to fight with the help of holy relics.

None of this matters. Li Ye just wants to know whether the Holy Grail exists.

The ability of the [Great Holy Grail] in Fuyuki to grant wishes is just a bonus, and it is a vision of using super-large-scale magical resources to fulfill wishes.

The Holy Grails held by Chaldea are all based on this point, high-concentration blocks of magic resources.

With magical power of that magnitude, there is nothing a magician cannot do.

The ability that truly belongs to the [Great Holy Grail] is [Drilling], the path to the [Root Vortex (Aksha Record)]. Those who reach the root will possess magic.

The magic represented by the [Great Holy Grail] is the third magic [Heavenly Grail], and its effect is [materialization of the soul].

In order to recreate the miracles of their mentor, the disciples of the third magician built a workshop that has continued since the beginning of the Christian era.

They tried to recreate the master's miracle but were unable to do so by themselves, so the alternative was to create an individual identical to the master, and have that individual reproduce the magic.

Justisa, the Holy Maiden of Winter, was created by accident, but because it was an accident, no matter how hard the magicians tried, they could not create a human of the same level again.

The [Winter Saint] Justisa was an artificial human created accidentally by the disciples of the third magician.

Although she deviates from the magi's ideas, her performance is the same as her master's.

Although Justisa can use the third magic, the cost is very high. It will take several years to save one person, and it is impossible to save all mankind.

Because even if a machine like Justissa uses a larger magic formula, it cannot save the majority of humans at once.

The idea of ​​disassembling her magic circuits and replacing them with a human universe using magic is the Greater Holy Grail.

'The materialization of the soul—'

Li Ye, who has already realized a corner of his own soul, has found the direction for the future, so obtaining the third method to realize the [materialization of the soul] is an inevitable result.

The immortality brought by the materialization of the soul is of no importance to Li Ye, even the infinite cycle of magic power is of no concern. What Li Ye really wants to achieve is to explore himself——

But now Li Ye has no idea whether the Holy Grail exists. The deviation of the world has caused Li Ye to feel extremely unfamiliar with this star that should have been familiar to him.

After a brief thought, Kenneth, who had already walked in front of Li Ye and Weber Velvet, still had an arrogant look on his face. After hearing that Li Ye was not even a magician, he stared at Li Ye with even more contempt.

In Kenneth's opinion, Li Ye, who didn't even have a family, was even worse than Waver Velvet.

"Li Yemo, you seem to have a talent for magic."

Despite this, Kenneth still believed in his own judgment.

There is no doubt that Li Ye is a "genius" who should be like this, even though he does not have a family lineage and does not even have the magic seal that a magus should have devoted his entire life to cultivating.

But it doesn't matter to Kenneth. As a "natural genius", Kenneth does not envy the talents of others. This is his absolute confidence in himself.

"If you want to join the Clock Tower, then work hard."

Without having any unnecessary conversation with Li Ye, Kenneth decisively passed by Li Ye and Weber Velvet.

As if neither mattered to Kenneth.

"wrong!"

Seeing his idol leave, Waver Velvet came back to his senses, but when he looked at Li Ye, Hong immediately realized what he had forgotten.

That was the original purpose, and also the source of why I was able to meet Kenneth in this position.

"This class is Mr. Kenneth's class!"

Weber Velvet exclaimed, not even caring about Li Ye and running in the direction Kenneth left.

But Li Ye couldn't let Weber Velvet leave like that, so he quickly followed him.

"Take me one!"
