Leo and Celise stayed in the fairy forest for a few more days.
Until the end, the fairies tried to take care of anything more, and showed a friendly feeling to the two.
Because he couldn’t have been so pure and kind, it felt like Leo and Selize’s hearts were getting warmer too.
“I feel like I want to stay here for one or two years.”
“Me too, low.”
I wonder if even a person with a broken heart will naturally become kinder if he spends time with these fairies.
‘no. Looking at those crazy warlocks, it doesn’t seem like that again.’
To kidnap these fairies and use them as experimental materials?
I was annoyed all over again.
The more I became acquainted with the fairies, the more I thought that they had killed the warlocks of the Grenok school, including Gilbert, too easily.
Leo stayed in the fairy forest for a while and tried to adapt to the new 5th class.
Since I was just starting out, I had to put in a lot of effort for a while.
Then, as time passed, Leo went to visit Vivian.
“Vivian. We are going now.”
“already?”
“If I stay longer, I think I’ll get too attached. It seemed like I couldn’t really go on like this.”
“I wish you could stay here.”
“You know you can’t.”
Leo shrugged.
Of course he wanted to too.
However, time is not infinite for Leo.
Now, there are only 8 years left until the age of 20.
In order to rise to the level of a great mage within 8 years, it was not just simple training, but a variety of quality experiences had to be accumulated.
“but. I can’t keep holding on Then, can I bring you something more?”
“Nope. already got too much Enough for now.”
Leo tapped the subspace pocket on his waist.
Although the volume is quite large, the inside is full.
It was because in a few days, the fairies were gifts, and they gave me a mountain of precious things from the forest.
‘If I didn’t have this bag, I would have been in big trouble.’
He wouldn’t have been able to take all the things the fairies gave him, and storage was also a problem.
This is because it could be damaged or deteriorated if it was moved to the capital by a wagon or something.
However, the subspace pocket also has the function of preserving the items inside, so it was really helpful in the current situation.
“Okay. let’s go I’ll go with you to the front.”
Leo and Elise come out of her house with Vivian.
Seeing the two leave, all the other fairies in the village gathered together to see them off.
“Goodbye~”
“You must come again next time!”
“Great man! pretty human! I’m gonna miss you!”
Seeing countless fairies and Vivian standing at the forefront seeing them off was very dreamy.
“yes. I’ll come again next time.”
Leo smiled and waved his hand.
The same was true of Selise next to her.
Leo glanced at her and asked.
“Are you crying?”
“Oh, no. Lowering.”
“You seem to have tears in your eyes right now?”
“Dust has entered.”
It was a lie to anyone, but it was Leo who nodded to protect her pride.
Vivian opened the teleport gate on the outskirts of town.
– Ugh!
“If you go inside, you will be transported to the Black Tower beforehand.”
“thanks.”
“I am more grateful. You are the benefactor of our fairies.”
Vivian grinned.
“Then see you again next time.”
“yes.”
Leo nodded.
But I don’t know when I’ll see you again.
He doesn’t have the ability to teleport long distances at will like Vivian, so he’ll have to work hard to come back here.
Vivian grinned, probably reading Leo’s thoughts.
“I think we’ll see it sooner or later.”
“yes? What are you talking about?”
“I’ll tell you more later. go for once It’s hard for me to keep this up.”
“yes. Okay. I get along well.”
Leo also waved at Vivian.
So Leo and Celise left the fairy forest.

When I went to the Black Tower of the School of Medith, Logan was waiting for me.
“Are you here, low?”
“Logan. Did you wait a long time?”
“no. I’ve been doing this and that, so I’m just about to finish my preparations.”
Logan joins them, and the three of them find their way on horseback towards the Duchy of Lyont.
The Ryant Duchy is located at the western end of the Roman Kingdom.
Also known as the Western Shield.
That’s why it wasn’t too far from the Black Tower of the Medice School.
Borrowing a horse from the Black Tower, the three of them moved side by side.
‘I’m glad I’ve learned to ride a horse again.’
Sitting on top of the swaying horse, Leo smiled.
As a royal, he received an early education from a very young age, including horseback riding.
At the point of possessing this body at the age of 7, Leo had all kinds of penalty characteristics.
It’s a shame since I learned horseback riding beforehand, otherwise I wouldn’t have dared to learn it with my weak motor skills.
“By the way, Logan. You said you had something to tell me. What was it?”
Logan said that he would return with him, but he had something else to say.
“Ahh. It’s nothing else, Duke Lyant says he’s looking for you.”
“yes?”
Leo tilted his head.
“I know that. So, on the way back, I was going to stop by the Duchy of Ryant as well.”
“Is that so? I don’t think I need to talk about this.”
“But it’s strange that you, Logan, are talking about the duke looking for me? How did you find out?”
“By chance, I made some acquaintances with the people of the Lyant duchy. I heard them.”
“??”
You’re a 6th-class black mage, but you make friends with people in the dukedom?
What the hell kind of relationship is this?
‘Isn’t this guy actually a black mage?’
Logan laughed out loud.
“I can see roughly what you are thinking. Didn’t I stay in the first queen’s palace for several months? I was able to get to know some of the people there.”
Leo didn’t know it, but the king had already suffered measles once because of Logan.
It was because a 6th rank black mage was staying in the palace as a guest of the 1st queen.
King Biden was taken aback and went into the investigation.
Helping Leo and Hanson defeat the black magician who was playing tricks on the Marquis Legret’s family.
He helped Leo from the west, and was recognized by the first queen to obtain a citizenship card.
In addition, Logan revealed that he was once a nobleman of a fallen kingdom.
Intensive interrogation continued, starting with the Marquis of Merverd, but as a result, it was evaluated as worth watching as a guest.
It was also because King Biden was open-minded in this respect.
It happened in the depths of the royal castle, so even Gawain’s Information Guild couldn’t figure it out.
The reason why the King and the Marquis of Merverd were looking for Leo was to ask more about Logan.
“After removing the prejudice of being a warlock to some extent, people treated me well.”
Logan is a pretty nice guy, except for the fact that he’s a warlock.
His personality wasn’t bad, he wasn’t even eccentric.
On the contrary, he was better than a normal mage with a dirty personality.
He has achievements and good heart.
It is different from ordinary black magicians who are blindly evil.
Knowing this, the people of the First Queen’s Palace introduced Logan to their close acquaintances.
At first, they were frightened, but soon they knew Logan’s personality and were able to get along well.
“And how did you find out that I had a relationship with you, the Duke told me through that friend. If possible, he said that it would be nice if you could find poor Leo and come with him to his manor.”
“Hmm. yes?”
Once from Gawain, once from Logan.
If you find yourself twice, it seems that the duke is definitely looking for you.
“I heard it too. So, before returning to the royal castle, I tried to stop by once since I came this far. Because it is the way to go anyway.”
“That’s what I wanted to say, too, that’s great.”
“Do you know what the duke called for?”
“I don’t know because they said they would explain it when they arrived. But it didn’t look rushed.”
“Yeah, what. You will know when you go.”
It’s the way to go anyway, so if you meet the duke, you’ll know it naturally.
Leo and his party made their way through the barren wilderness of the West.
* * *
The world of this Lost World is very unsafe.
It was made so that users could meet monsters on the road to level up, and there were many thieves and bandits because it was set in the Middle Ages.
In particular, this western part does not belong to any kingdom.
Since there were black towers of black magicians, it was especially dangerous.
So people passing by here used to go around in groups.
The more people you can gather and increase the number, the more thieves can’t attack you.
“I’m glad we were able to join naturally.”
“right. It’s nice to be invisible.”
Leo shrugged at Celise’s words.
Leo was currently wearing a wig to hide his hair color.
Now they were crossing the road from the west to the Duchy of Lyant, and silver-haired and silver-eyed wanderers are quite conspicuous.
I didn’t want to be seen by others, so I hid my hair color, and I naturally joined the procession of merchants, fearing that it would be annoying if the three of us were alone.
I didn’t like the combination of Leo and his party because they were mature people close to the elderly, young boys and girls, but the merchants accepted it because it would be nice if there were a lot of people.
“By the way, where did the lower escort troops go?”
“I sent them all back first.”
Leo answered Logan’s question.
He stayed in the fairy forest for close to two months.
The soldiers who had been brought a little from the beginning were placed in Viscount Blentz’s house, but Gawain ordered them to return while they were staying in the Fairy Forest.
In fact, there was no particular need for an escort of ordinary soldiers.
“But why do people seem to be looking at me every once in a while? Does the disguise show through? Should I hide the color of my eyes?”
When Leo murmured, Logan shook his head as if it wasn’t like that.
“The reason I’m looking at you is not because I’m suspicious of whether you’re of royalty.”
“then?”
“Aren’t you handsome?”
“?”
“Besides, Lord Sellise here is also exceptionally beautiful. Regardless of gender, age, it is a look that can be seen at least once.”
Only then did Leo see the people staring at him again.
Looking closely, some of the men blushed at Celise, and some looked at Leo with jealous and annoyed eyes.
I didn’t understand it well at first, but after hearing Logan’s words, I understood.
However, even though they are dressed plainly, they are the Leo and the others who exude an elegance that cannot be hidden.
That’s why people only glanced at her, but didn’t come close.
Under such an uncomfortable gaze, Leo and his party proceeded smoothly towards the Duchy of Ryant.
* * *
It moved towards the dukedom for a few days.
Shortly before arrival, a problem arose.
– Doo doo doo!
Dozens of people appeared with the sound of horses hooves.
“hahahaha! Where are you going!”
They were thieves.
There were many grasslands in the west of this place, so most of them rode horses like this.
The captain of the merchants broke into a cold sweat.
‘This isn’t good… .’
Now they had dozens of people gathered.
There were also mercenaries escorting them, so the number was considerable.
Besides, any trader enough to roam the Wild West knew how to grow tall and sharpen to some extent.
Even the thieves would know that, but the fact that they attacked… .
‘Nevertheless, it means that he has the confidence to attack us and win.’
Among the thieves, the scale was quite large.
The merchant captain glanced at the other merchants.
After exchanging opinions, he came forward.
“The Wanderers of the Wilderness have come. We are willing to pay the toll.”
“Pass tax. good.”
The rogue nodded.
The merchants’ faces brightened.
Still, they seem to be the kind of people who can talk to each other.
“Put down all your luggage and money and go. Then I will spare your life and let you go.”
“… … .”
The merchant’s expression darkened.
Telling me to leave everything I have here is no different than telling me to die.
Among the merchants, there were many people who came in debt, but they went bankrupt if they just left.
I could never accept it.
When the appeasement did not work, the captain of the merchants changed his strategy to threats this time.
he shouted loudly.
“These bastards! We also have a powerful mage in our group! You will regret it greatly if you do not back down!”
Leo, who had been quietly watching how things were going, was startled.
‘what. Did you find out who I am?’
