Chapter 119 Education
Facing the flame on Fina's fingertips, the young man was obviously a little afraid, but he still continued to speak.
"Do you really dare to do it? I know that if a mage kills someone with magic deliberately, their magic ability will be taken away from them and then they will be exiled to the desolate demiplane!"
A mage was a person with power. If they used their power wantonly, it would naturally cause chaos. Therefore, the Magic Association had strict control over the actions of the mage outside. Killing people with magic was the biggest taboo. Everyone in Sur knew about this.
Moreover, these young people were not adults, so they were protected by the law even more. It was impossible for Fina to take action against them, unless she was willing to give up her future!
Hearing the young man's words, Fina hesitated. She didn't care about them insulting her, but if it involved people around her, especially Reiner, she would feel very angry. This was the reason why she reacted.
"Haha, you useless thing!"
Seeing Fina stopped, the young man sneered. He reached out his hand, wanting to push her down, but his hand was stopped.
Reiner really couldn't stand the stupid behavior of the other party anymore. He grabbed the young man's hand and exerted a slight force to make the other party groan in pain.
"You let go of my hand!"
The other two men wanted to help, but a blue flame was already ignited in Reiner's other hand.
"You are also a mage! ！ ？”
The face of the man whose hand was grabbed by Rdiner was a little surprised, but then he quickly calmed down.
"You dare not touch me, I am the town mayor's son!"
"Really?"
Reiner smiled, the tightened his grip again.
"You probably only know that a mage will be punished if they use magic to harm other people deliberately. But you clearly don't know about the details."
Hearing what Reiner said, the two people who had originally wanted to hit Reiner suddenly felt a little panicked in their hearts.
"What do you mean?"
The young man who claimed to be the town mayor's son was obviously also shocked by Reiner's words, and his face gradually began to be overwhelmed with panic.
"The meaning of this law is that the ‘mage’ uses ‘magic’ to harm people ‘deliberately. No matter which point, there is a lot of room for explanation."
Reiner said quietly.
"Let’s not talk about the identity of the mage. If I don’t use magic, and if I just break your hand with brute force, or punish you on the grounds that you insult me, these explanations can bypass this law, at least my punishment will be reduced to the point that I can deal with it using money easily. So what do you think I will do?"
What Reiner said was also true. After all, mages sometimes had to use magic to defend themselves. Even if they managed to take it to the court, unless the evidence was as conclusive as Priam's case before, it could take up to decades to gather the evidence.
"You, you are lying!"
The town mayor’s son argued, but his body had already begun to tremble. He looked at his two friends for help, but the two had already been scared by Reiner’s words and did not dare to take a step closer.
"Of course you can think that I am trying to scare you, and you can also bet that I dare not hurt you here, but if you lose the bet, you will also lose your life."
Reiner said lightly, the flame in his hand turned into a faint ball of fire, whizzing towards the town mayor's son.
This sound alarmed everyone. Several mature men ran over with hoes and shovels, but when they saw the scorched marks on the ground, they didn't dare to move forward anymore.
"You you you you......"
The town mayor’s son felt the scorching heat in his ears just now. He turned his head slightly and looked at the burning traces that were only a short distance from him. Only then did he realize that Reiner was not joking, but was warning him very seriously.
He could no longer control his fear anymore. And he peed himself.
"Next time, if you want to do bad things, it's best to study the law first."
Reiner patted the other person on the shoulder and then said to Fina.
"Let's go."
Fina was still in a state of daze. She had never seen Reiner acting like this before. But when she thought that Reiner stepped up to protect her, she felt a wave of warmth flowing in her heart. This was something that she had never felt before.
She was dazed for a second, and then followed Reiner's steps quickly. When she glanced at the young man who had been regarded as a nightmare by herself in the past, the other party couldn't help but shudder in fear.
Perhaps in the future, this guy would leave her alone.
Fina was a little happy, but also a little emotional.
It turned out that what it took to regain dignity was nothing complicated, but a little courage and a little wisdom.
"Is that guy really the town mayor's son?"
Reiner asked as he walked. That kid just didn't seem to be well-educated. This level of character would definitely not survive one chapter in the Xianxia novels.
"Mhm, his name is Kashin, and his father is the mayor of Sur."
Fina nodded and said. This small town was very closed. Most people would inherit the family business. The blacksmith’s son would become a blacksmith in the future, and the chef’s son would become a chef in the future. Similarly, the town mayor’s son would also become the mayor in the future. The daughter of a mage would definitely become a mage.
From an early age, this boy named Kashin had been bullying Fina with other people, and it was more or less connived by his father. In this small town, the mayor was the king, and he was a noble prince, and all young people naturally regarded him as their leader.
"It seems that his authority in the future cannot be guaranteed now."
Reiner smiled. Most of what he said to the young man just now was nonsense, but he was very confident when he said it, and everyone here was stupid, so no one could see through Reiner's lies.
The big fireball that was deliberately missed was also to deter others. Reiner didn’t know whether it was because they had seen too few mages, or it was too easy to bully Fina's family, but he had the responsibility to help these ignorant guys reshape their worldview. One of the most important things was that they must never provoke a mage.
"Well, thank you, Principal Ian Gray."
Fina showed a slight smile. Reiner rarely saw such an expression on her face, which made him think that this straight-A student was quite cute.
"You should smile more, it's not good to always keep your face straight."
Reiner guessed that this was probably a habit that she had developed when she was a child, and most of her feelings would not be written on her face, but now it was not the past, she should have more smiles.
"Also, in the future, just call me Reiner, or Mr. Reiner. Hearing you call me Principal Ian Gray makes me feel like I'm very old."
"Mhm......"
Feeling embarrassed, Fina looked away a little embarrassedly.
"M, mhm, Re... Reiner."
