It is said that magicians are rare, but releasing mana is not difficult in itself.
But…
There is no such thing as having mana within Five minutes, yet Raymond did so.
Not only the old man but also Raymond didn’t expect it.
“Um……. Old man, is this mana?”
When he opened his hand, something danced as if they were shaking. A blue-colored stripe was faint, but the Mana was clear.
“What do you think? This is gonna change your perception of being a jerk, right?’
Raymond thought so. However, his reaction was not that much.
“Well, Your Grace……!”
“Huh?”
“Gee, this mana…Did you make it real?
Raymond thinks something’s wrong. The old man had a fit as if he had done something wrong.
“This?”
When Raymond waved his hand, the blue mana danced. The old man trembled as if he were about to collapse within a minute.
“Old man?”
But it was not a seizure. He can tell by the old man’s face. He was smiling.
“Fifth prince, Your Grace! Did you know how to operate Mana?”
“Oh, no…I’ve never learned anything like that…….”
He spoke frankly.
The emperor once tried to hire a magic teacher and a swordsman, but the fifth prince refused. So he didn’t know how to.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
Eventually, the old man had a seizure. He tore up the space with his trembling hands and took out his staff.
‘The heart of the sea. If one took out the symbol of blue tower, is like representing the blue tower itself ‘
“My name is Lisefield Dior, and as you can see from this, I am from Blue Tower.”
“I didn’t know you were from the blue tower…….”
This was an awkward part on Raymond’s side as he read the book before, but Lisefield Dior didn’t have enough time to notice it.

‘Me and the blue tower will stand behind the Fifth Prince.’
Returning to the fifth Imperial Palace, Raymond recalled what Lisefield said before.
In the novel “The fallen Empire,” Lisefield bowed his head only after the main character found the magic book and the window of sacrifice.
However, thanks to the magical talent that even Raymond himself did not anticipate, this process has been omitted considerably.
‘But…… do I really need to become his disciple?’
If the Southern Matap Alliance finds the lost spear of sacrifice magic book, there will be support from the blue tower anyway.
‘The protagonist doesn’t have to do the annoying thing about being a disciple, right? Now that I know the existence of talent, I have to use it.’
What if the fifth prince, who used to be a wimp, showed better magical talent than the third prince. And what if the matap alliance are deprived of the Window of Sacrifice’s power?
“The Matap, which values orthodoxy, will remain in place, but the possibility of the Red Tower moving should be considered.”
If supported by the blue and red towers, the third prince’s largest support base can be shaken and absorbed by him.
‘This is the best I can do now. I got to know my talent for magic. Then I should use it, rather than leave it rot. I was going to learn how to handle mana anyway.’
It’s just getting a little faster. He now possesses a “power” to survive from the plan to exterminate the royal family.
“And I just need to learn magic to get it.”
He said to himself casually. Learning magic will make it easier to collect ancient artifacts.
A satisfied smile spread around Raymond’s mouth. He walked calmly in front of the mirror.
As he organized his thoughts, he looked up within Raymond’s memory to recall the settings he had read before.
‘Was he a genius?’
At first, he would hide it because he didn’t have someone to back him up, and after the death of the third empress, he would have intentionally turned away.
Fate seemed to ask questions to the fifth prince who have awakened their talents again.
“Are you asking me if I can keep it?….”
A smile spread around my mouth.
“Of course I can.”
