My dear witch, please turn evil according to the script!

Chapter 39: Three Axes to Kill the Magician
After receiving a positive answer, Iluvia was in a good mood: "By the way, didn't Ms. Fram come back with you? Why didn't I see her?"

"Didn't you see? Didn't she get off the bus with me?"

Roland was very surprised. The station was full of guards on duty, who should have been Iluvia's spies.

Moreover, Fram and Kalia had clearly left before her, so why didn't Iluvia see them?
Seeing Roland's puzzled look, Iluvia was speechless. "Hey, after all, she's a legendary magician of the Nine Rings. If she doesn't want me to see her, do you think I can do anything?"

"You're obviously a pretty smart guy, so why do you always have trouble with common sense?"

Roland laughed awkwardly and then explained, "She took her students to the Royal Capital Magic Academy to complete the enrollment procedures."

"You know, a backdoor."

"Oh~~ I see, that witch named Kalia, right?" Iluvia's eyes became dangerous.

She widened her eyes slightly, then stared straight at Roland.

At that moment, Roland felt that those beautiful purple eyes were like two laser beams that almost shot through him.

But Iluvia's gaze didn't last long, and she quickly changed the subject: "By the way, you haven't completed the enrollment procedures yet, right?"

"Well...but didn't you ask someone to do it for me?"

"Yes, it's about time. We just need to wait until we get there."

"Um...walk over there?"

Although Roland didn't know the exact location of this park in the royal capital.

But he knows the location of the academy!

The academy is almost on the eastern edge of the royal capital. If I were to walk there, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach it until tomorrow.

"Walk to where the carriages are. Just outside the park."

"It took me a long time to pick you up today."

"The emperor's health is not very good, and I have been handling many things recently."

Iluvia looked at Roland and said, "Actually, those guards at the station weren't specially deployed by me. I just asked them to help stop you."

"Be careful, Roland. The nearest capital... isn't as safe as you think."

Roland was silent.

Thanks, I never felt this place was safe.

Now it seems that my plan to escape may have to be brought forward.

But before planning his escape, Roland had a question he wanted to ask Iluvia.

What kind of means are needed to kill a magician of the nine-ring legendary level?
Fram, what happened to her in the royal capital that led to her death?

We don’t even know where the body is, and the cause of death cannot be confirmed.

"Iluvia, can I ask a question?"

"No problem, but only if I know it." Iluvia did not refuse.

She walked in front of Roland, leading him out of the intricately designed corner of the park and toward where the carriage was parked, waiting for Roland's questions.

"If you want to kill a ninth-level magician, what conditions must be met?"

"Pfft!"

After hearing the answer, Iluvia accidentally stepped on the wrong place and stepped on her own long skirt. She staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"what?"

After stabilizing herself, Iluvia showed the same confused and astonished expression as Kalia for the first time in front of Roland.

"So you know what?"

"What do you want to do? Do you have any grudge against Ms. Fram?"

Iluvia naturally thought of Fram.

After all, according to her background check on Roland, the only nine-ring magician this guy could come into contact with was Fram.

As for thinking that Roland and Fram have a grudge, it is also normal. If there is no grudge, which little three-ring magician would think about such a question?
"Don't get me wrong, Ms. Fram and I have a good relationship. I'm simply curious." Iluvia looked at Roland suspiciously for a few times, and after confirming that the other party did not seem to be joking, she also expressed her own opinion.

“It might not be as difficult as you think.”

"There's a reason why magicians and knights above the seventh ring are called extraordinary ranks."

"The most important manifestation is that they can directly borrow the great source of magic power to fight."

"As a result, warriors who were originally unable to cast spells can now use simple spells to attack."

"This doesn't even require training. After stepping onto the seventh ring, the source of magic power itself will flow according to their will."

"However, unlike warriors who already focus on physical training, the changes in magicians after becoming extraordinary are not that great."

"In addition to the fact that spells are more powerful, consume less energy, and are cast faster, perhaps the most valuable thing that magicians above the Transcendent rank gain is insight into the source of magic."

"So they can develop many new procedures."

"Except for melee-specialized mages like you, most mages' bodies are extremely fragile after losing the protection of their spells."

"Although the huge amount of small source magic power can give magicians sufficient vitality, it allows ordinary magicians to have a longer lifespan than warriors."

"But if their hearts are pierced, their heads are cut off, their small source is destroyed, and if the magician has no backup plan, then only death awaits them."

After explaining the difference between those above the seventh ring and those below it, Iluvia gave Roland the answer he expected.

"So, if you want to kill a ninth-ring magician, it's easy. As long as you can stay close to her and the target doesn't have any life-saving tricks prepared."

"And most importantly, prevent him from using any spells."

"As long as you meet the above three conditions, you can kill a Nine-Ring Magician with just a knife."

Roland was silent.

Saying this is the same as not saying it.

Aren’t these the only three tricks you need to deal with magicians?

Close combat, sneak attack, silence.

Which serious mage can withstand these three pieces of equipment?

Seeing that Roland was lost in thought, Iluvia stepped forward and tapped him on the head: "Okay, don't think about it."

"Even if you have a way to isolate the large source of magic power, the reserve of small source magic power in the human body is still substantial."

"And what nine-ring magician would be so foolish as to ask you to meet these three conditions?"

Yes, how could Fram possibly let others meet these three conditions?

Even if Fram is unable to use any spells and is attacked at close range, doesn't she have any way to save her life?

Having lived for a thousand years and defeated the Demon King, it is impossible for her to not have means to protect her life, and it is impossible for her not to know the weaknesses of magicians.

Could it be that her life-saving method has failed?

Thinking of what Iluvia said, that the old Emperor Salah III had been in poor health recently, he knew that chaos was about to break out in the capital.

If the old emperor was just ill and would get better after a while, it would be fine, but if he was seriously ill and could not be cured...

Wow, that’s so exciting.

"Hey, what are you still daydreaming about? Get in the car!"

Iluvia stood in front of a high-end black carriage equipped with shock-absorbing springs and began to urge them on.

"I'm coming."
