Chapter 35 Blue Haired Apprentice Magician P1

[Alibaba Pov]

And As I successfully managed to evaporate the Mid-tier Magic Magic Beam with my own mid-tier spell, Heat Lock. I noticed using my third eye and senses that, due to the large/loud explosion that was caused by the collision of the two mid-tier spells of both himself and the blue-haired girl, that was close and acquainted with both Marcus and Leyla, with some school principal or something, which oddly enough Leyla calls the Principal as "Master."

Although when I Alibaba, the third prince of Balbadd, I had felt something weird from Leyla ever since she had become a court mage of Balbadd castle three years ago. When I had met Leyla, I saw that although she tries most of the time to act mature and know it. But in a few instances, I saw that she could act very childish at times, which included seeing her once being excited over some candy that Marcus had given her, being a moody girl sometimes, seemingly being angry at Marcus and the other members of the research group of Magic Tools and Technologies I formed a few years ago.

So it was actually due to her still being a mere 13-year-old at the time huh, I did not expect that such a sophisticated type of magic artifact could be found in this world several generations before now. When I look at the memories I obtained from Solomon; I saw that even from his world's perspective, Magic Tool's that had the effect of changing someone's appearance or changing the aging physical was pretty rare and valuable.

And even in Alma Torran, only a select few Magic Tool Smiths/Magicians were able to create this type of magic tool, as from his knowledge, Alibaba knew that even to make an inferior version of this type of magic tool is, the magician making the magic tool needed at least high-tier knowledge on Space-time type magic along with high-tier magic on Light type magic.

In Alma Torran, only a few magicians had managed to obtain high-tier mastery in Space-Time Magic. Another item called Magic-Core was also needed to create such a High-tier magic tool aside from the mastery of space-time magic. So due to that reason, few magic-tools like those that can change someone's appearance were ever made.

So anyways, although Leyla lied to us for her age, I think that this isn't necessarily a bad deal for me since, this last few years, even if both Marcus and Leyla had the probability of being spies, these last years, they have been a massive help for me to learn various things about the magic culture in this worlds, the different types of spells that were different from those present in Alma Torran, And Also was a huge help in the creation of various magic tools that Alibaba had invented.

So, for now, Alibaba had decided to temporarily pretend that he didn't know anything about Marcus's and Leyla's possible positions as spies monitoring him or Investigating Balbadd. While also planning some few precautions towards them if they ever become a threat to his friends and family or Balbadd as a whole. Although due to the present relationship that he had with both of them this last few years, Alibaba still wanted to try and convince them in the future to defect fully to Balbadd's side so that Alibaba wouldn't have to actually finish the both of them as though his time with them, he already considered both of them as mentors and friends. Although Alibaba, with his ruthless attitude that originated from Solomon, also had the will to kill the both of them if they ever post a major threat to himself willingly.

So as I had thought of those when I heard the words between Leyla and Marcus when I eavesdropped on them accidentally when I had planned to spar today with Cassim. And had managed to block the Magic Attack that had accidentally been aimed at him by the girl both Marcus and Leyla seemed to be talking about. I realized that as I successfully evaporated it, I saw that Marcus, Leyla, and the unknown girl had finally noticed my presence,

When The Girl saw that she might have accidentally hurt or hit someone with her mid-tier magic Aqua Beam, she immediately looked like she was about to cry. Still, before she could do anything, Marcus had quickly dashed towards Alibaba with a seemingly genuine worry for him while saying.

[Marcus]" Uh... Your Majesty, you actually here, are you okay? Although your Majesty, with your amazing magic, you managed to evaporate that spell with your own quickly. But are you okay? Did you actually get hit somewhere?"

Seeing Marcus Genuine's worried-looking expression for himself, Alibaba just laughed mentally and a bit touched as he thought even if Marcus was a spy, it seems that he somewhat had become a friend to Alibaba and a mentor. After seeing Marcus's look, Alibaba then replied.

[Alibaba] "Yeah, I'm fine, alright, Marcus. You don't need to worry since, by the look of that little girl over there, it seems that she still doesn't have good control over her magic just yet, so I don't feel any anger towards the accidental attacks she coincidentally aimed at at at me. So by the way, the are you both doing here, Marcus and Leyla, usually only my Uncle and Cassim and sometimes a few of the Palace's elite knights, use these training grounds. And who is that blue-haired-girl, by the way?"

When Marcus heard Alibaba's words, at first, he didn't know what to say as he didn't really know what to say concerning the girl that the headmaster had ordered them to teach for a few years or months now. But as he signaled Leyla/Irene with his eyes, asking for help on this. Leyla just sighed at her partner's/colleagues' incompetence and just answered Alibaba's Question.

[Leyla/Irene] "Your Majesty, the reason both me and Marcus was here in the training grounds this day was actually to help this little girl here to train her magic control since when we first met her, although she has an immense amount of magic, she currently lacked control over them right now. And your Majesty may we be impertinent, but due to the recent death of a relative of mine, from my home country, this little girl here was sent here by her Adopted Grandfather, who is my closest remaining relative.

"So while this girl's Adoptive Grandfather is helping my other relatives in my home country, her Grandfather asked me to take care of her temporarily as well as helping her to control her magic properly so that it wouldn't cause too much damage for the people back home when she eventually returns home."
