Overpowered Archmage Doesn't Hide His Talent-Chapter 102: The Knight of the Flickering Flame, Scarlet

Chapter 102 The Knight of the Flickering Flame, Scarlet

Early in the morning, Wilderness had time for a mid-term check.

Hmm!

The third princess, Yushia, received a large amount of information in a short period of time.

She spread countless papers on her desk and examined them carefully.

Confirmed. Next!

Then, one of the members quickly opened his mouth. freew ebnovel.com

Ill report to you.

Yes. Please tell me.

I have investigated the childhood of the Knight of the Flickering Flame, Scarlet Judith, intensively.

Wilderness could access more information because they had the third princess Yushia on their back.

And of course, more information also included top-secret matters.

Surprisingly, her swordsmanship in her childhood was terrible. Not only subjective evaluations, but also objective grades showed that.

Hmm, thats strange. Scarlet must have been born a genius.

There are even more strange things left. Would you like to take a look at this?

Yushia took the politely offered document.

And shortly after, she nodded.

Ah Is this a document about Flan?

The quantity was huge, but the content was simple.

The evaluations and grades of the people around Flan in his childhood.

That was roughly all there was.

Yes. Thats right, Your Highness.

I saw for myself that Flan was good at swordsmanship Ah? Thats not why you gave it to me?

Suddenly, Yushias eyes widened.

The member nodded and continued.

I paid attention to the timing. Coincidentally, after Flan put down his sword, Scarlets grades started to rise sharply.

Hmm

The third princess was lost in thought.

This part was definitely not something that could be seen as a coincidence.

And, we also have a request that came to us.

A request? Wilderness doesnt take requests.

To prepare for when they were caught, Yushia disguised Wilderness as an ordinary organization that took requests and acted on them.

But the disguise was just a disguise.

They had no intention of performing any requests.

As soon as she thought that.

?

Yushias eyes widened.

Oh, is this also a request about Flan?

Yes. But, look at the amount.

The amount? Wow, 3,000!

3,000.

It was the amount they said they would give just for starting.

[Investigate everything about Flan Judith. Advance payment is 3,000 gold coins. Completion will be tripled.]

This is probably

There werent many who could easily offer this much gold.

And the sentences that were written with no consistency and almost nonsense.

Based on these things, Yushia could easily guess who the other party was.

Vampire or Demon? Somehow it seems like that?

It seems so. Seeing that they are interested from all sides, Flan must have something really special.

The member nodded and said.

Maybe, hes not really his son.

Yushia shook her head.

Hmm, I dont think so.

After cutting off his words in one stroke, the golden eyes of the third princess sank into a deep thought.

I rather suspect the Flickering Flame side.

In the end, they couldnt use up all the points.

The three representatives of the magic department wondered how to use the points, but they couldnt use any of them, and in the end, the incident at the gambling house ended with the three knight groups wasting the points.

Using the exception clause The Ghosts of the Misty Cliff, they piled up this many points before the Hunting competition even started, and then they lost them, it was a truly amazing achievement.

Wow

And after following the announcement, Becky exclaimed as she gathered in the square.

The space where the representatives gathered was left empty in a square shape, and the people crowded around it. Reporters, residents, officials The members were diverse.

Please look this way once!

Please greet! Greet!

!

Sister! Catch a lot of monsters!

The first time she experienced such a noise.

The girl felt awkward as she sensed that some of the commotion was directed at her.

Well, from the residents point of view, the Hunting competition is a festival

They would be happy that several groups would get rid of the monsters in the area where they lived.

Even so, the Hunting competition is really amazing.

Becky unconsciously stuck out her tongue.

The dignity of the Hunting competition was felt as she saw it with her own eyes.

And this was only the people who gathered on the spot.

Considering the fact that the reporters were broadcasting the situation through the crystal ball, there would be many more people watching the Hunting competition right now.

Hmm

But right now, Becky had something else on her mind that bothered her more than anything.

She fiddled with the tip of her pointed hat and sank into her thoughts.

Im sure it was hemoptysis.

She couldnt stop thinking about the sight of Flan coughing up blood.

Why on earth?

Becky was very troubled.

She couldnt ignore it, since it was Flan, of all people.

Come to think of it was it strange that he was fine?

She also wondered if she had taken Flans well-being for granted.

Considering what he had done so far, it was a miracle that his body had endured.

Did Flan hide something important from Becky?

No, even if it wasnt important, she was curious.

What had happened that made Flan spit blood, what was that pale complexion all about.

It was a serious matter for Becky, just by seeing him like that.

You.

Huh?

Becky jumped at the sudden voice of Trixie.

Trixie narrowed her eyes at the noisy sight.

Why have you been making such a stupid face since a while ago?

Oh, I was just thinking about something important.

Hmph.

Trixie snorted.

I bet its not that important when you look at it.

But Becky couldnt stand that remark!

Its important, okay?

Not important.

It is!

Not important.

Becky spilled everything.

What are you trying to say? That hes terminally ill?

Trixie muttered quietly after hearing the story.

Becky broke into a cold sweat when the unexpected words came out.

T-t-t-terminally ill? No way.

He coughed up blood, you said. And his recent actions are suspicious, too. The other day, he even used the expression we.

Louis, who had been listening quietly, joined in.

Now that you mention it he always has the word time on his lips. Of course, he might be saying that because hes diligent, but still.

If Flan was terminally ill, everything would make sense. His changed attitude, his constant busyness.

If his life had an expiration date, then it would be understandable

Ugh, this is too far-fetched. I guess I said something unnecessary.

In the end, Becky wrapped up the conversation.

She didnt want to imagine that Flan was terminally ill.

Are there still rookies who havent left yet?

In front of them, who had lined up in groups, a regular knight with a bushy beard appeared.

Remember that this is real as soon as you leave the square. From now on, youll be facing actual demons.

There was no representative who didnt know the rules of the Hunting competition.

The representatives will explore Verkel from now on.

This place, where the terrain has changed, is full of dangers, including the demons.

They all have to survive here for a week and earn points. novelbuddy(.)com

They can get basic points by killing demons.

This part is not to worry about errors, because the artifact in the shape of a bracelet detects the thoughts that occur when the demons d*e.

Also, alliances are allowed, and points can be transferred.

There are regular knights stationed everywhere, but in the end, you have to take care of your own safety. There are no reporters or regular knights in the areas classified as dangerous zones.

The expression of the regular knight became very serious.

Did you all understand? No matter how urgent the points are, avoid the dangerous zones as much as possible. No one can take responsibility for your safety there. Its a place where the terrain changes in real time.

He emphasized the explanation of the dangerous zone three times afterwards, but there was not a single representative who considered it a fuss.

The dangerous zone was a place where it was not a waste to emphasize the warning several times.

In fact, if you look at the statistics, nine out of ten casualties of the Hunting competition occurred inside the dangerous zone.

Thats it for the guidance. You should start leaving soon.

They all started to check their own condition with a tense expression.

The magic department was no exception.

Flan joined them around then.

He showed up with a document bag in his hand, and the other three knew very well what it was.

A distortion bag?

Its a distortion bag.

They couldnt help but know.

What Flan had in his hand was something that the three of them had given up on buying at the store, so it looked familiar.

An artifact that can hold a lot of luggage by escaping some of the spatial constraints.

It was a distortion bag.

Becky blinked.

Flan, you bought a distortion bag? Is that all you bought?

No. I also bought a fantasy map.

Oh, a fantasy map!

Beckys eyes widened. The girl sighed with relief and continued.

Ah Im glad! I thought we were going to use the store at all. But thinking that theres a distortion bag and a fantasy map, I feel so relieved.

Trixie and Louis also had a relieved look on their faces.

They too thought that it would be difficult to go through the Hunting competition without any items.

But Flan calmly rejected them.

Were not using the fantasy map.

There was a moment of silence.

Trixie asked.

What?

The three of them looked at Flan with questions.

It was then that Flan quietly flicked his finger.

?

Everyones eyes stuck to the air. Soon, all of their expressions became stupid.

They all had to doubt their own sight.

What is that?

Fan, fantasy map?

Its a fantasy map!

Fantasy map.

As if to show everyone, Flan unfolded the fantasy map in the air.

The reason why they had to collect points faster than any other team in the early stage of the Hunting competition.

The map that would be the landmark throughout the period.

The terrain of Verkel, which changed with the new year, as well as the distribution of the demons, was described in detail in the new item.

It was spread out in the air as if to show it.

Silence fell as if time had stopped.

Soon, a whirlwind of chaos swept the square.

What are they doing?

Shouldnt we check the rules?

Another weird thing from the magic department!

Some knights immediately questioned and resisted the unexpected behavior of the magic department.

In fact, it was somewhat unfair to call it the behavior of the magic department. It was nothing more than Flans unilateral decision.

Fl, fl, flan?

You What are you doing?

So even the representatives of the magic department just looked at Flan with their eyes wide open.

They too did not understand the situation.

In the meantime, Celestial Blessing was the first to hit the ground.

It was the knight team that Becky had met at the gambling house.

Were done checking. Lets go!

Lets go!

They didnt understand Flans behavior, but they didnt want to miss the opportunity.

They ran to the other side without looking back.

Uh

Yvonne, the first-year Flash Knight, stared blankly at the backs of the Celestial Blessing students.

She too was late to hit the ground.

No, she was about to kick off, but she stopped in the middle.

She turned her head to Flan and smiled brightly.

Flan, I wish you luck.

With a shining smile, she too left the square at a very fast speed.

Ting

Janet, the leader of the Celestial Blessing, started flipping a coin.

Wow. Thats unexpected.

The coin followed the same trajectory, showing a precise movement as it bounced between Janets thumb and the air.

She slowly turned her head and looked at Flan.

Youre funny, Flan. I didnt expect you to do something like this.

She had a strange expression, a mix of anger and amusement.

At the same time, a knight wrapped in a thick robe muttered quietly in a corner of the square, unheard by anyone.

The fantasy map is useless now.

The knight slowly walked away.

Between the folds of his robe, a scythe glinted.

The hunt began, and only the representatives of the magic department were left in the square.

They had spread the fantasy map wide enough for anyone to see, so everyone must have chosen their destination.

Becky opened her mouth and stared blankly at it. Then, after a moment, she asked me with a dazed expression.

Fl-Fl-Flan? What are you doing showing them everything?

Trixie and Louis, who were next to her, didnt react much differently.

Trixie narrowed her eyes and parted her lips.

What are you thinking?

She glanced at the direction where the knights had run off, then looked back at me with a dumbfounded expression.

They all went to monopolize the shadow beasts. We wouldnt have enough even if we took them all

Shadow beasts, well, theyre not bad.

Wolves, dogs, humans Shadow beasts are monsters that can change their shape at will. But their popularity lies in their huge numbers.

The more monsters you k**l, the more points you get, so theres no better monster to earn points in the early stages of the hunt.

Trixie clicked her tongue.

Not bad is not enough, theyre the best option.

Yeah, yeah, Flan. I thought you would go after the shadow beasts as soon as the hunt started

In the midst of that, Louis spoke up.

Hey, maybe.

He seemed to have realized something, and he slammed his fist on his palm.

Was it a problem that we earned points? Did you decide to forfeit because of that?

Trixie and Beckys faces were shocked.

Trixie licked her lips a few times, and Becky jumped like a frog in a boiling pot.

Fl-Flan! I have something to explain about that! How could I win when I was trying to lose? You know, right? Poker is a game of luck, not skill Mmph!

I clenched her lips with telekinesis.

Mmph Mmmp

Becky tried to continue her explanation with her hands.

I didnt bother to look.

Scarlet.

Instead, I opened my mouth.

It was only three letters, but it was enough to make the representatives bodies stiffen.

The Knight of the Flickering Flame, Scarlet.

I said calmly.

They say you can get a huge amount of points if you break her shoulder armor.
