308. Academy Arc (80) – Archmage Scarlet (3)

After some idle chatter, Scarlet also felt her mind relax.

Sipping her tea, she subtly brought up her daughter’s story again, indirectly.

It was true that Scarlet had been solely focused on tutoring, but she was naturally curious about the situation and wanted to confirm her assumptions with the person involved.

“Do you remember what you said when I asked if you were dating Charlotte before? When you said you weren’t sure, I told you that was pathetic.”
“Ah, yes…! I remember. You told me not to get close to Charlotte…”
“Ah… I definitely said that… But how is it now? Raul is a young man in his prime, isn’t he? I won’t get angry, so tell me honestly.”
“Well, that’s… I guess we’re not… dating after all. I think I was mistaken.”
“………Hmm. I see.”

Raul looked slightly dejected, but he quickly erased his expression and waved his hand.

“But it’s not like I have any complaints? Thanks to that, I get to receive private tutoring from a beautiful Countess like you…”
“Flattery won’t get you anything.”

Scarlet’s tone was somewhat stiff, but she didn’t seem to dislike it, as her eyes softened slightly. How many women in the world dislike being complimented on their appearance?

While talking, Raul stared intently at the beautiful wedding ring on Scarlet’s left ring finger. He then naturally changed the subject.

“By the way, is Count Allton not here?”
“The Count is at the main estate, so he’s not in the capital. This is just my personal mansion for work purposes. I have quite a few things to do at the royal palace.”
“Ah, I see. So he’s not here…”

A brief silence.

Raul glanced at Scarlet and cautiously opened his mouth again.

“Um… if it’s not too much trouble, could I stay here for one more day? I want to focus on studying the books here until late tonight…”
“…………….”

At those words, Scarlet quietly glanced sideways.

After hearing that her husband wasn’t here, the fact that he immediately asked to stay the night made it impossible for Scarlet not to have some slightly suggestive thoughts.

Well, she knew the reason. It was probably because he didn’t want to be… pounced on by her daughter.

Would he be squeezed as soon as he returned? Even so, it wouldn’t be surprising.

‘Haa… I’m thinking pathetic thoughts.’

When she thought about it, it was unlikely that Raul would see an old lady like her as a woman in the first place. She thought that him calling her beautiful earlier was just to appease her hysterical temper. Many people had done that before. Of course, it wasn’t that she lacked confidence in her appearance, but surprisingly, Scarlet had low self-esteem as a woman.

She had high self-esteem, but that was only as an archmage, limited to external and social aspects.

If she were so attractive, she would have gone through many men when she was younger.

But her standards were high and picky, and also burdensome. Even the types who flirted like playboys didn’t dare to take the risk because they were afraid of Scarlet’s personality and skills. Even though it was a shame, there were many beautiful women in the world. Even those who were rumored to be promiscuous in the department strictly avoided approaching her, which was quite a shock to Scarlet at the time.

As a result, everyone avoided her, and Amar, a colleague who had worked with her for a long time and understood her, became her lover. Even while they were dating, her picky personality didn’t change.

The reason why Amar, who was from a different family, was put forward during the succession of the Allton family was partly because she wanted to be called Countess, Lady Scarlet. She had already achieved a lot to live as a progressive woman, and she was tired. In any case, there was no way Amar could interfere with the real power of a family with an archmage.

Anyway… the fact that she even had these thoughts for a moment was pathetic.

She was an archmage on the outside, but on the inside, she was just an old lady, she cynically thought.

“Alright. But I’m going to bed when it’s time, so I can’t tutor you until late at night?”
“That’s fine! Thank you so much for your consideration, Countess!”
“Yeah.”

And so, Scarlet had dinner with Raul. The maids carrying the dishes glanced at Raul. They were curious about their relationship, but since their mistress had her usual sharp gaze, they quickly carried the dishes and returned to their places.

A quiet atmosphere with the living room lights dimmed.

Scarlet happened to look at Raul and noticed him quickly turning his head away. Then, he awkwardly focused on his meal as if nothing had happened.

The position of his gaze was clearly…

‘Hmm…’

She lowered her eyes and stared at her chest.

Her dress, with its deep neckline, revealed the fair skin of her breasts. Elegant necklaces partially covered the skin, but that combination only enhanced her beauty as a woman, drawing more attention. She didn’t think much of it, as she was just imitating a noblewoman.

‘Even an old lady like me can attract attention to her big breasts. Well, it seems like he quickly stopped caring though.’

Other men wouldn’t even dare to look and would always hold their heads high.

‘His uneasy gaze… he has a slightly cute side. He’s still a kid.’

If she were to scold him for such a trivial thing, she would have to live her whole life angry. Or she would have to cover herself up all the time. Scarlet chuckled inwardly, and she felt like she understood why Charlotte was keeping Raul around.

Come to think of it, she had been thinking of going back to the main estate again around this time.

Recently, Scarlet had been spending time intimately with Amar.

Or rather, she was trying to spend time intimately with her husband.

But nothing was worse than something ambiguous. When they did it, her body seemed to heat up a bit, but honestly, she wasn’t very satisfied. She didn’t know it, but Scarlet was so strong-willed that Amar often had to bow his head. Not knowing the situation, she thought that Amar’s stamina was very lacking and compromised with this, so they couldn’t spend long intimate nights.

Still, there was happiness… or so she thought, but the reason why Scarlet had become more hysterical lately was because of this frustration. She was trying to ignore it, though.

‘Well, he’s just like a disciple. Hmph.’

Scarlet chuckled to herself and elegantly bit into the tender meat on her knife.

After that, nothing much happened.

Raul asked her a few questions while she guided him on the parts he didn’t understand in the living room, and as she had said, when it was time for bed, Scarlet went to her room to sleep. Raul also went to the empty room she had designated for him and slept soundly.

…………

Some time later.

Raul would occasionally pester Scarlet again, using the excuse of visiting the Royal Library. Each time, Scarlet would allow him to teleport to the capital as if she knew. (Of course, she made sure Charlotte couldn’t follow, or she didn’t know what kind of mischief they would get up to in her mansion.)

Naturally, they would do basic magic training, but they couldn’t always have theory lessons.

They needed to improve the flexibility of casting by demonstrating magic in the backyard, checking its power, and identifying operational problems.

Scarlet, who was teaching Raul at her mansion, suggested to Raul that there was a good environment for such training.

“Let’s go hit some scarecrows.”
“Scarecrows? Are you talking about swordsmanship?”
“Hmph… I’m talking about special tools that can withstand magic. There’s a proper magic training facility in the capital, so let’s go there. We can properly measure your magic.”

And so, the two of them rode in a carriage through the city and entered a secluded area.

There was a large building with well-maintained surrounding grass, and after being guided inside by a mage at the entrance who greeted them hastily, there were indeed special magic-infused scarecrows lined up generously, just as she had said. There were also magic circles drawn that activated a self-repair function in case of fatal damage. It was early in the morning, so there was no one there yet.

-Kwagwang…!!

Inside the quiet training ground, a loud roar echoed. Raul’s fire-type destruction magic had hit the scarecrow squarely. The scarecrow cracked and began to recover slowly according to the self-repair function of the magic circle.

Scarlet, who was next to him, honestly admired it.

“The power is definitely there. Your mana and affinity are already in the top tier for your age. Maybe you’re on par with Charlotte. Impressive.”
“Hoo…! Thank you.”
“But it’s not very accurate. It feels like you’re just overpowering it with force. If you waste your power so inefficiently, you’ll eventually have problems. You said you went on an expedition to the ruins before, right? Did you see Charlotte’s magic then?”
“Yes, it was called a secret magic called Rivestrol…”
“That’s right. It’s a magic that concentrates on how destructive a magic controlled at one point can be. Anyway, this concentration when casting…”

The two of them talked in between demonstrating magic several times.

Suddenly, a young male mage approached from the entrance of the training ground. He looked around and soon spotted Scarlet, then walked towards her.

“Alfonso? What brings you here so early in the morning?”
“Scarlet-nim… no, Lady Scarlet. I came to see you for a moment because I have something to discuss.”
“Alright. Raul, please step aside for a moment.”

At her words to step away, Raul waited at a distance. The conversation lasted for a few minutes, and after the mage left, Raul, who had come back, looked curious, rolling his eyes around. He didn’t ask directly, but his appearance was so concerned that Scarlet spoke first.

“What did I tell you? If you have something to say, say it clearly.”
“Um… can I ask what that was about?”
“That person is one of my royal attendants. It’s about a monster subjugation… It seems to be quite high priority since he came looking for me so early in the morning.”
“Does the Countess personally subjugate monsters…?”
“Well, I am a royal archmage, after all.”

She said that if it was something that the royal family had to get involved in, they would ask her for help. In doing so, the influence, benefits, and tangible assets of the Allton family would increase significantly. Every time that happened, other nobles would naturally try to keep her in check.

“Wow. That’s amazing…”
“It’s nothing special. This one isn’t that dangerous, but it’s said to be a troublesome opponent for ordinary knights. That’s why they entrusted it to me.”
“……Could I possibly come along?”
“Huh? To subjugate monsters?”
“Yes. I think I could be of help with magic, and… honestly, I still lack external activities.”

At those words, Scarlet pondered, recalling a memory from a long time ago.

“External activities… Ah, I remember now. If you don’t do it at least three times a year, it’ll be hard later because your score will be tight, right?”
“Yes, our swordsmanship department also told us to participate in escort or monster subjugation at least three times, in addition to what we do in the department, but I became so engrossed in magic that I… ended up like this.”
“You have no planning skills.”
“I apologize…”
“Hmm…”

Scarlet sighed briefly, then crossed her arms and assessed Raul’s level. She seemed to be thinking seriously, but surprisingly, a short and light answer came out.

“Alright. There’s no reason why you can’t.”
“Is that really true? …………Whoa!”

-Clang!

As Scarlet walked to the other side, she suddenly cast a magic missile, and Raul quickly deployed a magic shield to defend against the attack. It disappeared as soon as it hit the shield, so he could tell it was weak, but Raul was momentarily startled and broke out in a cold sweat at how fast the casting speed and the projectile were.

Scarlet chuckled, seemingly satisfied with Raul’s reflexes.

“I, I was surprised, Countess…”
“You’re quite useful. You’re good enough to protect yourself. Shall we go now, then?”
“Huh? Are we going now?”
“That’s why the attendant came looking for me this morning. So, are you not going?”
“Ah, no. I’ll go. I’m ready.”

As the two of them headed to the entrance, the male mage from before was waiting. He tilted his head, having heard the story, and asked again.

“Is this boy coming too?”
“Yes, he’ll be fine, so you don’t have to worry about him. We’ll be using the royal portal, right?”
“Yes, I’ll go and activate the coordinates for you.”

The mage glanced at the blond-haired boy.

Was he the mage that Scarlet-nim had been raising lately? But he didn’t think he needed to ask about it later. She was someone who hated anything other than work-related talk.

“To subjugate monsters with the kingdom’s archmage… haha. You’re getting credit for nothing? You’re not planning some big picture to show off your connections, are you?”
“Ahaha… absolutely not.”
“Well, just don’t get hurt.”

And so, the three of them got into a carriage and headed to the royal portal in the center of the capital.
