Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits-Novel

"You plan to take part in the tournaments huh," Astra commented with a knowing smile on her face and hearing those words, a big, demonic smile appeared on Vaan's face,

"Is that not obvious?

That's what you sentthere for in the first place, did you not?"

"Heh." A smile similar to Vaan's appeared on Astra's beautiful face as she laughed out loud.

"Destroy him."

She spoke.

Obviously, she already knew who Vaan would be facing in this challenge. After all, Vaan hadn't exactly kept his deal with Declan a secret.

In exchange for facing him in a duel while betting his own Mansion and the new Vesta House, Declan and his subordinates would vote in favour of Vaan and Elara leaving the Academy temporarily.

Astra and the entire Vesta Family knew about this, however, none of them questioned Vaan or called him reckless for making such a decision. Even if many wanted to, in the end, none had the courage to, after all, after learning about the recent events that happened in the Academy and the vital part Vaan had played in keeping up their family's image, they knew questioning Vaan right now would only turn Vaan and many others who currently support him blindly against them.

No fool wanted such fate.

As for Astra, the woman simply decided to trust her son. She, who had personally seen Declan and even heard Orion having a high opinion about the boy, knew how strong that child was, however, in the end, she still trusted her son more.

She trusted that if Vaan dared to accept such a bet, it was because he was sure that he would cout as the final victor no matter what.

Therefore, the only thing she wanted was to make sure that her son dominated the battle through and through. She wanted her son to etch this defeat into the future Dawncrest Leader's mind, making it so that the moment Declan, in the future, sees or even hears about the Vesta Family, he is reminded of his defeat and he trembles in fear.

A sadistic smile appeared on Astra's face, right now, she didn't look like a woman who wanted others to think of her as a compassionate and magnanimous woman just a few minutes ago.

What compassionate and magnanimous woman wants her own son to beat his opponents to the point he traumatises them!?

That was clearly the sign of a tyrant!

What's worse?

"Did you think I had something else in my mind? I will make him regret ever coming across me."

Vaan was more than happy to comply.

Heck, even if his mother hadn't said anything, the Dawncrest was already his target.

After all, the man said swords he shouldn't have.

Seeing her son's expression, Astra nodded with a satisfied look on her face. This is how her son should be acting. Vaan nodded back as well, happy that his mother supported him. Heck, even Flamey, Splashy and Breezy, despite not understanding half of what was happening, were copying Vaan and nodding continuously as well, looking absolutely adorable.

On the other hand, Elara was looking at the scene in front of her with a deadpan look on her face.

Her fiancé, she understood, ever since her fiancé had become… good fiancé, he had becsomewhat eccentric, it was to the point where she was already used to his changes and wasn't bothered by it any longer but…

She didn't think her fiancé would also be affecting and influencing her teacher!

Why were the two of them acting like they were the villains of this story!?

No, aren't theyactuallythe villains here…?

No hero talks the way they do, correct…?

Was she… the part of the villain's faction…?

Elara momentarily froze, unable to believe the conclusion she had reached.

'No, no, no, we have the incarnation of Magic God on our side, we cannot be the villains.'

She was quick to shake her head, however, just as she was about to discard the theory, she saw Flamey, Splashy, and Breezy, smiling exactly like Vaan and Astra.

The three little spirits had perfectly copied even the 'evil grin' part of the smile and right now, they looked no different than scheming little imps who wanted to see the world burn.

'I am the part of the villain's faction…'

Elara realized it and the moment she did, she despaired before she slowly accepted her fate.

As for thinking about leaving her faction? Heh, that thought didn't even appear in her mind. After all, villain or not, she had already fallen into that man's trap. She couldn't escape him any longer and…

Suddenly, a dark, heavy look appeared in Elara's eyes as she stared at Vaan laughing wildly and a thought completely unrelated to the current topic appeared in her mind,

'I won't let him escape him either. No one butcan have him.'

Furr, who was blissfully resting on Elara's lap suddenly felt a chill down his spine, he quickly turned around and noticed the horrifying look on Elara's face as she stared at Vaan and Astra, then, noticing the demonic smiles on Vaan and Astra's faces, he couldn't help but gulp.

'What family have I becpart of…?'

The little Furr couldn't speak, but if he could, this would have been his first thought. In the end, however, as he felt Elara unconsciously ruffling his fur, he calmed down and closed his eyes. It was not something he had to bother himself with.

So what if he was a part of a crazy family?

He just had to becas crazy as them and join them.

How difficult is that?

…

"Lord Declan?"

On the other side, in Declan's office, seeing Declan acting strangely, his secretory called out, wanting to know whether he needed something.

"It is nothing." Declan shook his head.

Inwardly, however, he couldn't help but frown,

'What is this numbing feeling on my back…? It is as if something bad is about to happen…'
