Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King

Chapter 600 600 Minister Billy Bob

600 600 Minister Billy Bob

Using [Elemental Affinity] to activate hand drawn spells was definitely not optimal, but the fact that he could draw them himself and activate them meant that Wolfe could eventually use most types of magic to a very basic degree.

That was probably also the training method that the Magi used to guide their own progress, as according to the history lesson in the memory crystals he had seen, most didn't start with all the affinities that they would develop, they worked to shape their progression over time.

If Wolfe had started working on Earth Magic at Rank One, he might have actually developed the affinity for it by now.

But Lightning and Unholy Adept affinities were more than enough for him most of the time, and the fact he could use fire, gravity and air magic as well was enough versatility to keep him happy.

The castle security office was in the middle of the complex, in the first basement level of the castle, hidden away from foot traffic.

They had a number of detection spells set up, but no technological devices at all here, so there was no need for a central security room with screens like in the Fortress City, just an office for the boss, who didn't want his conversations overheard.

The castle's normal hustle and bustle fell silent as they made their way down the stairs to a large oak door, where Rail stopped to knock politely.

"Minister William Robert? It is Rail from the investigation department, here with Patriarch Noxus to assess your requests." She asked softly.

Surely, that wouldn't be heard through the door without magic, but the massive oak structure swung inwards, and an enormous Demon greeted them with a curt nod before moving back to a desk nearly as large as Wolfe's bedroom.

"Thank you for making my request a priority, Patriarch. We have a number of spells that need repaired, and they were originally cast by the Magi, so I'm uncertain as to whether they can be found in any of the books here.

The primary defensive spells have always been our own magic, but before the attack, we had a spell that prevented physical violence within the castle itself. That is the first one that I would like to get back online.

It was only after that spell was disabled that the attack on the previous King could start, and the loss of it cost us dearly. Do you know the spell that I mean? It was on a stone tablet, but the tablet was crushed to dust."

Wolfe smiled. "[Kind Intentions] is the name of the spell. I have a lot of practice with it, as I have been casting it for all the villages that are allied with my own, so that those with ill intentions toward the village can't enter. The fact that it prevents violence among those who are allowed in is just a bonus."

The security minister's face lit up, literally glowed from the inside with red light as he got excited.

That was an interesting sight to see, but the Demon was already rifling through stacks of objects and trinkets that were stored in chests around his room. When he was finished, he came up with an ornate golden breastplate that he set on top of his massive desk. It was sized for someone twice Wolfe's stature, but significantly smaller than the minister himself, and came with pauldrons forged in the shape of dragon heads.

"It's meant to go on a statue, no King has used armour like this in centuries. So, if you can put the spell on this, nobody will ever know it is there, or care to look." The minister suggested.

"That's not a bad idea. I will leave the actual security issues to you, but I can cast the spell on that armour right away. I just need a bit of extra mana. If both you and Rail can help me out, I should be able to cast a spell that completely covers the castle grounds." Wolfe agreed.

Rail was only at Rank Three, but the minister was Rank Six, and on the high end of it, so Wolfe hoped that the three of them together would be enough mana. It might take longer to cast, but if he could maintain focus, in theory he could even cast it by himself without drawing on the witches linked to him.

Rail hopped up onto the desk and sat cross-legged next to the armour, so Wolfe moved to join her, while the minister placed a hand on each of their shoulders.

"Alright, once the spell begins, you can start feeding me mana, and I will take care of the rest."

"Got it. This is going to be great, I've never seen magic like this before." Rail cheered.

"I doubt that many of us have. If I am correct, this is a form of Grand Magic, and only a select few can use it." Minister William Robert informed her in a severe tone that warned the excited succubus to behave.

Wolfe completed the inscription with ease born of repeated practice on the villages of Sylvan Coven, and the two demons began to feed him mana to activate the spell, with the boundaries set to the outside of the castle walls. Once they were done, nothing hostile would be able to come within ten metres of the castle walls, which should, hopefully, prevent most sabotage attempts by enemy forces.

There would always be threats within the castle, that was just the nature of politics, but if they couldn't just directly stab each other without triggering the spell, it would make a world of difference to the petty crimes.

Bullying and hidden beatings were surprisingly common, Wolfe realized, as the spell triggered twice while he was activating it. The return of the [Kind Intentions] spell was going to force the entire culture of the castle staff to change once again, hopefully back to whatever stable state it was in before the last bout of treachery.
