Chapter 74: Gourmet Club (1)
Eisel Morph's magical demonstration was a wonder to behold; it was even captured on video storage devices, and quickly spread throughout the classroom.
Of course, it wasn't long before the footage was surreptitiously smuggled out and shown to magic scholars far and wide. They were eager to witness her incredible abilities for themselves. Her magic - or rather, her art - caused a stir of sensation within the academic community.
Undoubtedly, Eisel's magic was impressive, but many priests and other mages also recognized the incredible skill of Baek Yu-Seol.
From the beginning, he had declared that his strategy was designed exclusively for the priest.
At first, it was unclear what he meant by this; the demons were so challenging that only knights could hope to suppress them.
But, his words proved true.
Baek Yu-Seol devoted himself entirely to Eisel's magic, moving from beginning to end with no thought for his own position in the arena.
His selfless protection of her had a poignant effect on many mages who witnessed it, and his skill with magic drew widespread admiration.
The knight exists for the priest.
Then, wasn't Baek Yu-Seol, who sacrificed himself solely for Eisel, the ideal "knight"?
All priests dream of having a knight they could entrust everything to, just like Eisel.
