Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King



The elder looked concerned at Ella's comment, so she decided to explain before the witches thought that they might be getting ripped off.

"He has spells at his disposal that can crush tanks like juice boxes and tear down city walls like sand castles. But a spell like that on a weapon not only makes it unstable and dangerous to use, it gives off an aura that everyone can feel from hundreds of meters away.

Keeping a whole unit worth of weapons like that in the village would draw every magical beast for fifty kilometres to your doorstep as they searched for ways to get stronger.

Trust me, I have your best interests at heart when I tell him to use some moderation."

The local witches chuckled at that. "If a Rank Two Witch is such a big jump, I can only imagine how far ahead Rank Four is. If he had access to the old Magi Families' tutors, he would be a terrifying existence.

But maybe that's for the best. Wolfe seems like a decent guy despite his power. Not letting them get in his head and strip away his humanity is a blessing for the rest of us."

Wolfe ignored their joking and walked outside to see what they had brought for bows and was startled by what he found.

They weren't some generic military-issue piece of gear. The witches had gathered a whole load of ultra-modern competition-bows designed for higher arrow speeds and equipped with laser targeting devices for faster target acquisition.

They even had the manufacturer tags on them still.

It took a moment to find a good spot to put the inscription on the skeletal composite frames and a few more minutes to adapt the spell to the unique shape of the bows, but after that, Wolfe was ready to start.

These ones would get a much stronger [Lightning] enchantment and weaker [Wind Arrows] than the ones for the academy since they would be primarily defensive weapons, and the village had plenty of rifles and heavy weapons from the Gormana troops anyhow.

They weren't hurting for good weapons, only weapons that were good against stronger monsters.

Once he had the first one finished, Wolfe passed it to one of the witches from the patrol team.

"Take that to the edge of town and try it out. Let me know how it feels, if it's too much of a mana draw, and what you think of the power. If you're happy, I'll make all the others. If not, I'll adjust it to suit your teams better.

"You're just trying to kill an old woman with envy, aren't you? Custom Arrays on demand, with multiple elements." The Elder sighed.

"But I can't use witch magic, so you've still got me on versatility." Wolfe reminded her.

There was a crack of thunder in the distance as the scout tried out the bow for the first time, and Ella shook her head at Wolfe.

"That's still a bit too strong. It's loud, and it will attract unwanted attention." She informed him.

"It also alerted the whole village that there was an attack. That Lightning charm can be activated at a lower power output if she wants, or just the Wind Blade can be used.

The bow should be good for all situations, and the crack of lightning is as good as gunshots to bring your friends running to help."

The scout returned a few minutes later with a big smile on her face, carrying a four-metre-long Python that appeared to be a magical beast, going by the glowing purple markings.

"That's a really good bow. I managed to pin it to the tree with the first shot, but the lightning startled me so much I nearly wet myself. The wind blades finished it off with no problem, though, and it's a weak Rank Two beast." She informed the Elder.

That news was cause for concern. Not about the bow, about the monster. There were way too many strong monsters in the area, and nobody could ignore their numbers anymore.

"We are going to have to search as we go north and see if there is somewhere they could be gathering in larger numbers or something in the wilderness that might be making the beasts stronger. There just too many of them that have evolved past Rank One." Wolfe sighed.

"You would do that for us?" The Military officer asked eagerly.

"For you personally? No. But for the sake of the Alliances that we are making, yes. Having monsters attacking all over the place is bad for business. Plus, if they run out of good targets here or get chased off, they might come back past my place."

The younger witches accompanying the Elder and the one from the patrol team all snickered at the crestfallen look on the officer's face.

He should have known better. They were still basically strangers, even if Wolfe was helping and did bring back a lot of prisoners from his nation.

"How is the bow? Does it need any tweaks? I can see that the draw weight and length are adjustable on these ones, so they should be good for every witch on your team." Wolfe asked the scout.

"It's beautiful. If you make the others just like it, you won't get any complaints."

Ella wrapped an arm around the Elder and smiled at Wolfe.

"While you do that, I will put a garden charm over the village and get them ready to start harvesting at a properly increased speed. The sooner we get everything in place, the sooner we can have dinner and call it a day."

"Alright. I won't be too long. But take the barrier array disc and find a good spot for it. There's usually a fountain or something in the town square, or you can put it in the Mayor's house. Whatever works for them is fine by me." Wolfe agreed.

The assistants and military officers looked annoyed that everyone was splitting up, but the highest-ranking officer left with Ella, and the Intelligence Officer remained behind with John to watch Wolfe work.

There wasn't any paperwork to do here, so the assistants chased after the Elder, leaving the street in front of the meeting room briefly quiet.

Right up until the prisoners that Wolfe had rescued realized there was nobody stopping them from approaching anymore.
