We searched a nearby house.
“How about it, did something come out over there?”
After looking around and asking about making a weapon, Katyusha came down from the second floor first.
“I got a gun. It’s not a standard firearm, it’s a crude priest.”
As he said, in Katyusha’s hand was a crude firearm with many wooden parts. Of course, even if it was crude, it seemed to be capable of functioning as a gun.
“Here, I got a rusty spear!”
Mi-ryung, who was digging at the back of the house, said with a rusty, soil-covered spear. It’s not hidden, it just looks like an object buried here. If you get stung, you will 100% get tetanus.
“There was a dagger. It’s for actual combat, not for training.”
Last to come out was Dimitri with a small army dagger. It was brand new, shiny and sharp.
“I thought there would be a wooden sword at most, but that’s surprising. Katyusha, are there any bullets in the gun?”
“All the bullets nearby are rubber bullets. I think the bullets loaded inside are also like that.”
At my command, Katyusha touched the gun and confirmed it. Thanks to training in advance, he was more skilled than other students at operating the gun while pointing it toward the sky.
“It’s a good thing it’s a rubber bullet. Seeing what these guys were doing, I thought it wouldn’t be strange even with live ammunition.”
“I was also relieved. It would be good for the Crown Prince to have this dagger.”
Dimitri passed me the dagger. Is it the judgment that I am the only one who can not hurt the opponent with a sharp weapon?
“Mi-ryung, I’ll let you carry the spear. When it comes to spearmanship, I am quite confident.”
“yes! Please be useful!”
Mi-ryung waggled her tail and happily passed the spear to Dimitri.
Dimitri took the spear and pressed it hard against the floor with the blade. The rusty spear blade was easily smashed and rolled on the floor.
“Wouldn’t that make you weak?”
“We are not trying to kill each other. The one in the form of a stick is better because you can swing it happily and hit it.”
The blade was broken, so the weapon, which was no longer a spear but a club, skillfully rotated and took a stance. It looks pretty cool.
“Does it suit you better than when you held a sword?”
“thank you. Actually, I am dissatisfied that there is no spearmanship course at the knight academy. I trained hard before entering school.”
After all, Dimitri is quite usable, considering himself to be ordinary or ambiguous. I asked for an active performance and kicked a dagger around my waist.
“What should I do with the gun? First of all, the structure doesn’t look too complicated, so I think I can use it.”
“Then Katyusha, let you have it. Even if you get hit, it will only bruise you, so shoot it hard.”
“yes. I will do as you command.”
Katyusha nodded politely.
While preparing for the Colosseum, Katyusha learned how to use firearms. Even though Katyusha has excellent fighting skills and knife skills, it was judged that it would be unreasonable to have her go forward now that her pain cannot be nullified like before.
“Miryeong has nothing. Are you okay?”
“It’s okay because I was naked even during the mission. Even if I do, I can’t handle it well.”
Mi-ryung said shyly.
From noble mtl dot com
“There is no need to feel ashamed. Being strong even without weapons is a huge advantage in this Colosseum.”
“yes! I will do my best!”
Mi-ryung answered enthusiastically. This secured the minimum armament.
“So, what about the other guys?”
I lowered my voice and asked Mi-ryung. Mi-ryung patted her ears and walked around.
“I don’t feel any presence nearby right now.”
It seemed that no one was around.
“Then shall we move? In the beginning, I said let’s go aggressively.”
“yes. Now that the others haven’t finished preparing, let’s make a quick raid and get it done.”
Then you can find it from this side. I don’t intend to take it too long
We walked on the yellow ground. Mi-ryung pricked up her ears and continued to look around, and Katyusha and Dimitri each looked in different directions. I also watched the front and checked the magic of the earth.
“I don’t see any sign of engagement yet.”
Despite walking quite a bit, I haven’t heard any signs of popularity, someone’s spirit, screams, or gunshots yet. It was like when I came to the preliminary field trip before.
“Everyone will be busy securing weapons. It’s the first game, so there will be a lot of people who want to move defensively.”
“Okay. But don’t relax.”
Even when playing games of this genre in modern times, there were quite a few cases where no one met in the beginning. It wouldn’t be such an unusual situation.
How far did you walk like that?
“huh?”
Mi-ryung stopped walking and looked around in puzzlement.
“What’s going on, Mi-ryeong?”
“no. It may be a trivial thing, but the direction of the wind seemed a little unnatural… … .”
Mi-ryung tilted her head as if she didn’t know. I used a slight boost and looked around——.
“Mi-ryeong, it’s up!”
“yes?!”
Noticing the surprise, he shouted. At my cry, Mi-ryung hurriedly turned her arm into a beast and raised her guard, and someone’s fist exploded there.
“Ugh?! What, what!”
Mi-ryung swung an arm in the shape of a wolf to shake off someone. Someone landed a few meters away after somersaulting, creating huge wind pressure around them.
“… … He is also the Crown Prince.”
A student wearing a gauntlet was standing there, flapping a cloak he didn’t know where he got it from.
‘The surroundings were faithfully guarded, so how did they come out?’
He was using a sensory technique that applied the secret art of the earth. If someone only stepped on the ground nearby, I could feel their presence. However, I didn’t notice the opponent at all until I attacked this close.
‘Mi-ryeong said the wind was strange. Then there is only one answer.’
“Are you the owner of the magical power of the wind?”
It flew all the way from a place quite far away.
“Indeed, you are quick-witted. You are awesome.”
A student with a greasy impression with long hair on one side bowed his head politely and praised me. This strangely arrogant way of speaking, and the magic of the wind. I felt an indescribable feeling of déjà vu.
“The story that I beat my brother wasn’t a rumor.
It is the memory of an opponent who fought quite a long time ago.
“… … what. you. Was it Neza’s younger brother?”
This opponent was the younger brother of Neza, the man who tried to take Mustafa away.
“yes. It’s called Egil. Remember, nothing bad will happen… … !”
Taang!
Before Egil could finish speaking, a rubber bullet grazed Egil’s cheek.
“… … Oops, you’re an impetuous maid.”
Egil smiled, touching his slightly scratched cheek.
“Then I have no choice but to move!”
Aegil flew up with a gale. The sand on the floor swirled violently and became a sandstorm, obscuring the view.
‘Did you know I could cover this with sand dust?’
However, a sandstorm of this magnitude was nothing compared to the fog of Caspal, which was mixed with mana. I use the boost to check the agil flying towards me with a heightened sense——.
“see!”
“Kuk!”
Not with a dagger, but with the ‘weapon I made’ at first. The weapon he swung struck Egil at the waist.
“Hey, heck, socks… … ?!”
“Because there was no rule against making weapons!”
The weapon I wielded was a blackjack, a blunt weapon made by filling a sock with sand. Although it looks pathetic at first glance, its power is no different from a normal blunt weapon.
“Kuck, kuck! Oh my gosh… … !!”
It is proved by Agil, who desperately holds back his screams and staggers.
“Th-with such a ridiculous weapon… … ! Kut!”
Egil flew up again creating a sandstorm.
“Princess, are you okay?! Aim because of the sand!”
As the sandstorm just before disappeared, Katyusha, Mi-ryung, and Dimitri regained sight. Egil was running beyond the storm as if he were about to retreat.
“Nothing. Go after him!”
“I must have been a cowardly surprise attack, I will not forgive you!”
“yes! Let the hunt begin!”
We went after Egil. Egil made a storm and jumped to increase the distance, but if Mi-ryung pursued him, he could catch up quickly.
‘It’s not that strong compared to what appeared with a bluff.’
Is it true that there is no younger brother like an older brother? Compared to you, it was far below.
‘It might be an inducement, but I can’t feel anything else around me. I’ll chase after you and finish you off!’
“Grrr… … Gaaa!!”
Mi-ryeong, who turned her limbs into beasts, let out a wild cry and caught up with Agil until she almost caught her. Egil hurriedly threw himself into a nearby building to avoid Mi-ryung’s claws.
“You entered the limb with your own foot! Siege!”
“All right!”
We went inside, surrounding the building and guarding it.
“Huh, huh… … .”
Egil leaned his back against the wall, looking weary. It seemed that there was a slight rebound because he used too much magic power.
“The tag game is over, Egil.”
All exits are sealed. If it wasn’t for this, I wouldn’t be able to use the magic of the wind properly.
“The reckless thing is just like my older brother.”
I approached Egil and expressed my impressions.
“You say you look like your brother?”
Egil furrowed his brows and shook his head.
“I don’t do anything reckless. I will not repeat the same mistakes my older brother made.”
“Is it not reckless to try to attack the team alone?”
“I have never been like that.”
Egil denied my words. And he smiled as if he had been waiting for this moment.
“It means I am not alone.”
In an instant, I felt a presence behind me and turned around. But nobody was there.
‘What, just… … !!’
The location of the presence was not behind. was below A hand rose from the shadow of the ground.
“Kuk!”
The capital drew a sharp cut where my wrist had been until just before. The blackjack, the weapon he had made, was torn apart by his fingertips, and sand gushed out.
I hurriedly distanced myself back. I almost got caught on the way. The hand that had let go of my foot touched the ground. Then, with a sigh, the man’s upper body came out.
“Egil. He spoke too fast.”
“sorry. I was so nervous.”
The topless man said to Egil. Egil smiled and replied.
He was a man with pale white skin and red eyes, like a vampire. With that characteristic appearance, I immediately remembered who he was.
It was Xaril, the owner of the shadow magic.
‘Did this guy hide in the shadow of the cloak and follow me!’
It was true that Egil was not alone. It was two from the start. The two magic powers were so close together that I didn’t notice them.
But my misunderstanding did not end there.
‘The feeling of deja vu wasn’t Neza’s memory. I completely forgot. These guys… … .’
Aegil of wind magic, Xaril of shadow magic.
‘These are the guys Eugene dealt with in the original work!’
These two were characters that appeared in the original Colosseum.
