Creaaak...

Thud!

After seeing the door close behind them, Ur said a word to Seol.

"Hm... So they've also included a spell that recreates the magic circles when it's closed again."

"Would that be an issue?"

"Not at all. In fact, they've just made hiding our tracks easier. If it were me, I would've changed out the entire design of this first..."

Seol, quickly recalling Ur's skill from earlier, asked him a question.

"Ur, what was that skill just now?"

"Skill? When did I use a skill?"

"You just consumed that magic circle."

"Something like that can't even be called a skill. Have you forgotten who the father of all magic was?"

Ur was the first wizard.

His actions were currently beyond Seol's comprehension.

"However, there are restrictions behind it."

"Restrictions...?"

"This is all because I've become your summon. When I last checked, this body's limits were deciphering, dismantling, and condensing."

"What do you mean?"

"It's simple. I can decipher mana-related items and mana itself and break it down to its core: pure mana."

"And condensing?"

"I could then condense the dismantled mana into a large mass."

"What would you use that for?"

"Isn't that obvious? To kill my enemies."

"......"

"It's also my only method of attacking at the moment. In essence, I devour spells to store them, condense the mana, and then unleash it upon my enemies."

"...That's all you can do? Really?"

"Quiet! This is all because of you! Did you forget that you could only summon me because I weakened myself to match your pathetic level? It's almost my first time being so weak. It's awful!"

"Hm..."

"Not to mention, I've always focused on things other than combat."

"Other things?"

Ur laughed insidiously.

"Nurturing and refining. You have no idea how many wizards I've guided who have left their mark on history."

"Of course, I wouldn't. It's not like anyone remembers wizards anyway."

"...There's a mistake. It's clear that something went awry."

Seol paused his conversation with Ur for a moment to check the contents of the Sudden Adventure.

[Your 23rd Adventure is starting.]

[Adventure 23. Stockholm Syndrome]

[Adventure 23. 'Stockholm Syndrome'

Rare is the occasion when one feels not only sympathy for the villain but also swayed by their plight. Yet, undoubtedly, it occurs.

Malacus, once an adversary who pushed you to the brink, had lost both of his eyes and family to the hands of unknown assailants when he was young.

His life was then consumed by rage and despair. Through the letter he left behind, you had learned of his past. Boldly, he requested the reader to seek vengeance on his behalf.
