Chapter 14: Genius that Babel recognizes

Leon spent the remaining time practicing. There wasn't much else to do at the moment because he had to teach Felix for 10 hours every week.

He completed 5 cycles in exactly 2 hours. Leon wiped his sweat and felt a headache. Doing multitasking simultaneously for more than two hours is really too much for Leon at the moment.

"It's really difficult and takes so much time. Even though I keep trying to minimize the errors that occur during the process, this technique is really not easy to do." Leon sighed softly and went to take a shower.

A refreshing feeling enveloped his body when he washed himself with cold water. Leon thought about the biggest Flaws of this magic technique.

In short, his current results were quite futile. Not only did all the mana he used to complete the 5 cycles go to waste. But all these processes consumed a lot of mental energy and hurt his brain.

"The only good thing is that Mana Breathing is very helpful in returning all my body conditions to their original condition. Especially after I started training magic techniques, Mana Breathing seemed to change its focus and didn't interfere with my training progress." This was the only reason why Leon could last so long when training this technique.

The three processes he had to carry out simultaneously were to guide all the Mana in nature that was put into his body to strengthen the 3 important essences in the human body. Body, Soul, and consciousness.

By doing this, Leon will set the foundation for achieving perfection.

After finishing, Leon returned to wearing the clothes given by the system. After wearing it for a full day, Leon felt admiration for this outfit. Even though there wasn't anything special, just the comfort that this suit provided was enough for Leon to throw away all the clothes he had ever worn and just wear this suit.

What's more, this clothing has a function that can clean itself.

Leon immediately met Nanabel and asked her to take Leon to meet Felix.

Along the way, Leon saw several maids he had met when he first came here. In his eyes, every maid and butler who worked in this place, Leon vaguely saw 4 rings surrounding their bodies.

Almost everyone here already met the standards of a Tier 1 Magus. In this world, forming 3 rings was not an extraordinary feat. The average person could reach this level in twenty to thirty years and that was by this world's standards.

But if you use standard babel… you could say that it's a little complicated but not confusing.

The magic tower of Babel divided the ranks of magus into ten levels. Tiers 1-10.

Regarding how to reach each level, this lies in how the magic technique is trained. Each technique has different requirements and has their own limits. This is complicated because the development of the magic carried out by the Tower of Babel magic in each universe is so advanced that dividing the realms is almost impossible because each magic technique is so developed.

The magic tower of Babel finally took drastic measures and divided this realm into ten levels. Since the roots of the development of magic were in the Magic Tower of Babel, everyone naturally followed suit.

At least that was some of the information the system gave Leon.

"Young master Felix is waiting inside." Annabel opened the door and stood beside the door.

Inside, Leon saw a small room filled with various kinds of books piled up. When Leon entered, Felix immediately closed the book and stood up to greet Leon.

"Sit down. In the future, there is no need to do something like this."

Felix nodded and started to prepare himself. Honestly, he was nervous because this was his first time having a mentor. Moreover, his father didn't usually think highly of someone.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Also, he was really curious about Leon. Felix saw Leon and used his innate talent to see Leon's future. The result is still the same as before, nothing happens.

He couldn't see anything.

Felix really wanted to ask about this. He was curious about the only different person he had met in his life. He wanted to know how and what made Leon different from the others.

But his father's words immediately appeared in his head.

"Don't tell anyone about the Eyes you have. Not to your Brother, or even to your grandfather. Whoever it is, even if it is the person you trust most in the future, never tell them about this." Balak said in a caring tone.

That was the warning his father said when Felix told his father. That time, he accidentally used these eyes to see his father's future and was surprised that his father would form the 9 rings and successfully surpass him.

When he told his father about it, his father immediately left the capital of the Pendragon kingdom and moved to Maple City. The palace and thousands of servants that once belonged to the Betlam family were immediately abandoned by Balak.

Even his father, who used to be very busy, is now always by Felix's side and accompanies him all the time. Felix didn't understand, despite being only 5 years old, he knew that his father's actions were very strange.

Even so, his father's response remained gentle when answering his curiosity.

"You are different and the world doesn't like differences. Humans envy those who are different and often feel inferior about the talents they have. Seeing someone who has something special inside them, will only magnify the envy and hatred they have. That envy will turn into hatred and greed just because someone is different from others."

"Dad, am I different from others? Is this because my eyes can see the future?" Felix asked confusedly.

"Father will not lie to you. You are different from all of them. Once they found out that you could see the future, the envy and hatred that humans have was directed towards you."

"Why? Did I do anything wrong to them?"

"no, Felix… No. You didn't do anything wrong. The hatred comes because you have something special inside you. In this world, do you know what is most important?"

Felix, who was still 3 years old and had just started studying magic, answered without the slightest hesitation. "It is power and knowledge."

"You're right. Be strong so that you can be free from the shackles that your eyes have, gather knowledge so that you can understand why you are destined to have those eyes. Because what we have as different humans is not an oddity. Do you understand?"

Felix remembers all the conversations he had with his father. After that, he never told anyone about the eyes he had. Even though he kept looking at other people's futures with these eyes, Felix never said anything.

Even if the future leads to death, or misfortune experienced by that person, Felix doesn't say anything. In this world, his father was the most important person and the person who loved him the most.

He also knew that his father was just like him. His father was different from humans in general. Because of his father too, Felix never left the mansion and just sat reading a book.

And right now, there was one more person who was different from the rest. Even his father couldn't compare to him.

It was his teacher, Leonardo Constantine.

He was the only person whose future he couldn't see. And that was the only interesting view he would see in his entire life.

Felix looked at Leon curiously and looked at him with his eyes for the umpteenth time. But the result was the same, nothing he saw.

'What's different about Mr.Leon?' Felix thought about it for a while and had a brilliant idea in his head.

'Maybe I should try the magic I created myself?'

Felix hesitated for a moment but his curiosity overcame his doubts. He immediately tried to channel the mana he had towards his eyes. Some form of ancient language circled Felix's eyes around his irises.

Leon who saw it immediately stopped Felix from what he was trying to do. He raised Felix's hand which caught his attention. "Don't do what you are trying to do. Trying to peek into someone's karma isn't something as simple as investigation magic or that ball your father used."

Felix was surprised to hear what Leon said. His eyes were facing each other, but Felix could see that Leon's eyes were different from each other.

Leon continued, "Karma involves the life experiences that all living things have. If you make even the slightest mistake, then the consequences will be fatal and your brain will melt in the best case."

"Th…that, sorry." Felix apologized while feeling fear on his face. The ancient words that had formed around his eyes disappeared leaving behind a black eyeball.

This kid is really crazy. Leon giggled slightly as he let go of Felix's hand. There's a crazy kid trying to peek into his karma and he doesn't even have any knowledge about it.

Even though Leon knew that he wouldn't be able to see it, even if he could see it, his karma would be obscured. But Leon had to admit, the way he used his magic to peek at his karma was truly impressive for a kid his age.

Is this the Genius that Babel recognizes in Babel in the field of Divination?

"Take it easy. I don't blame you. It's just that you don't have enough capacity to do something that big. Even if you use the help of the magic circle created by your father and empty all the mana in this mansion, you won't be able to do it. Otherwise, your brain will just melt because it won't be able to withstand the resulting load."

"…"

What? This time it was Balak who was surprised.
