Chapter 132: Mana Suppression Pills

“Then for my next question— my next concern. You'll be doing a magic affinity test on me afterward, right? I currently have two… no, three different magic affinities. That would definitely raise many eyebrows.” Leo said.

“What? Camille told me that you only had two— dark and wind.” Eve said to Leo before turning to look at Camille, who had a look of bafflement on her face.

'Since when did he have three magic affinities? Don't tell me it's the Magic System…' Camille cried inwardly.

Her awe for the Magic System grew every day.

“Did I? I must have forgotten to mention about his third affinity…” Camille said with a stiff smile on her face.

“How do you even forget something this important?! Do you have any idea what having three magic affinity means?! In this entire world with billions of magic users, there are less than ten people with three magic affinities!”

Camille shrugged, “I had other things to be worried about.”

“Haaa… Whatever. Anyways, what is your third magic affinity?” Eve asked Leo a moment later.ᴘᴀ ɴ ᴅᴀ n ᴏ ᴠᴇʟ

“Fire.” Leo calmly said, not thinking too much about it.

“W-What did you just say…?” Eve, on the other hand, appeared to be shocked by this information.

“Fire magic. My third magic affinity is fire.” Leo repeated in a louder voice this time.

“Hahahaha!” Eve suddenly started laughing.

“This is great! It's almost as if you're fated to become my student!”

“…” Leo looked at her with a weird expression on his face, wondering why she was so excited that he had the same magic affinity as her.

ραꪒⅆα ꪒꪫꪥꫀ​ꪶ​ “Alright, it's decided! After consuming the fake Fruit of Awakening, you will 'awaken' a fire magic affinity! This way, I can make you my official student without looking suspicious, since it's common for teachers to look after those with the same affinity!” Eve said. pᴀɴda nᴏvel

However, Leo quickly said, “Even if you say that, what about my dark and wind magic affinity? How am I going to hide them? If you're going to test my magic affinity, they will definitely appear, especially since my dark magic affinity is S-Rank and my fire magic affinity is only E-Rank.”

“Don't worry, naturally we have something to fix that. Camille.” Eve said as she turned to look at her.

Camille retrieved two different pills from her spatial storage and said, “Mana Suppression Pills. They have the property to suppress one's mana, and if we adjust the pill properly, we can even suppress specific mana linked to your magic affinities. This will keep the magic affinity device from detecting your dark and wind magic affinity.”

“How convenient…” Leo mumbled.

“Actually, these pills are considered poisonous drugs and are meant for prisoners because once you swallow it, you won't be able to use your magic without consuming the antidote. We aren't even supposed to have these, as it's illegal to use them outside of prison since it can easily be abused. If we're caught using this, we could be executed.” Eve chuckled in a carefree manner.

“What?! You're willing to do something this risky just so I can use magic publicly?!” Leo was shocked after learning the truth behind the Mana Suppression Pills.

“We'll be fine. You're worrying too much.” Eve continued to smile, treating this whole situation as though it was a prank.

Leo turned to look at Camille in hopes that she might try to talk them out of doing something that could potentially have them executed.

“The Headmistress is exaggerating.” Camille said.

“So we won't get executed if we're caught?”

“That is true, but we're both S-Rank Adventurers with plenty of influence. We'll be fine even if we're caught. The most they'll do is give us a fine.” She calmly said, leaving Leo speechless.

After a moment of silence, Leo asked in a low voice, “This pill isn't harmful to one's body, right? What are the chances it messes with my magic?”

“None. The Mana Suppression Pill is very safe. There have been no incidents of it harming its consumer since its creation many years ago, so you can be at ease,” Eve said.

“Alright.” Leo nodded.

“By the way, does this mean I will only be able to use fire magic in public?” Leo asked a moment later.

Eve nodded, “That's right. If you really want to use dark magic, I guess we can suppress your wind and fire magic instead. However, you should really consider it, because—”

“Because 'Leon' is still being hunted.” Camille suddenly interrupted. “Although the chances of your identity as Leon being exposed is very slim, it's not zero. Are you sure you want to risk it?”

Leo pondered for a moment before speaking, “I'll pick fire magic. I'm already satisfied that I am going to be able to use magic in public. I don't really care about the magic affinity. It's just that I will be much weaker since I only know a single fire magic spell right now, and my fire magic affinity is quite low.”

“Don't worry about these kinds of things. In case you forgot, I am the strongest fire magic user in this entire city. Even if you have a trash fire magic affinity, I will turn you into a formidable fire mage as well.”

After going through their plan one more time in greater details, Eve said, “After you consume the Fruit of Magic Awakening, you will become the center of attention regardless what magic affinity you decide to use, and your name will be spread throughout the world.”

“Our little prank will have an immense effect in the world, whether you might feel the effects or not. There will even be people who will want to experiment on your body to see if they can replicate the effects of the Fruit of Magic Awakening, so you have to be very careful for a while. In fact, no matter where you are in the city, treat it as though you're in the Wilderness because danger will lurk in all corners.”

“Well, what I am trying to say is… This is your last chance to change your mind. We can still stop this now if you want.”

However, Leo remained resolute and said, “No matter the consequences and danger that may be waiting for me in the future, I have already made up my mind— I want to use magic freely!”

Eve nodded with an approving smile on her face, “Well said! Then I see you in my office in three days right before the result announcement.”

“I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Headmistress, Miss Camille.” Leo bowed to them before leaving the office.

“Fruit of Magic Awakening… This fake event will send massive waves throughout the world…” Eve said as her gaze was fixated on the golden fruit before her.

“Not just Leo— we'll also need to prepare ourselves to protect him because things will get hectic very quickly.”

“I know.” Camille nodded with a serious expression on her face.

After leaving the Headmistress' office, Leo went straight back to his room.

“I can't wait. In three days, I will finally be able to use magic as 'Leo'.” Leo mumbled with a smile on his face.

Lilith silently stared at him and thought to herself, 'You're severely underestimating the situation, Leo. The moment you swallow that fake Fruit of Awakening, your life will change forever, and your name will be forever engraved into history, but whether it will be a good thing or a bad thing for you— for all of us… only time will tell.'
