Episode 60. Whist Forest(2)
“···········?”
What should I say?
How does it feel to fall out in a dream?
No, I wasn’t dreaming, so it’s not an accurate expression.
Anyway, I felt something strong and opened my eyes.
Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Down
The wagon was moving at a constant speed, shaking from time to time.
When I turned around, the other wagons were following me well.
But, like a harsh sound hitting my ear, I felt an uncomfortable sensation over and over again.
Now that I’ve gotten used to Schlust’s body, I could say what it was at once.
Someone is editing the mana around you.
In other words, he was devising a recipe for activating magic.
‘Who is it?’
Is the student or Sergei trying to use magic?
That being said, no one in this carriage seemed to be using magic.
Then in the wagon in the back?
no it wasn’t
The direction in which the magic wave flies is none other than to the right.
Because I was in that bush.
Quang!
“Hey hey!”
At that moment, the carriage jerked forward.
The horses screamed and were sucked into the pit, and the front wheel of the wagon also leaned in behind.
The wind smashed my forehead against the back of the front seat…
Is it a trap?
“Ah. Is everyone injured?
It was just about the moment Sergei got up and tried to calm the students down with a grin.
Whoops!
“Huh?”
“Smoke?!”
“Everyone, calm down! Don’t get up!”
White smoke spread everywhere.
The smoke quickly colored the surroundings whitish, and within 10 meters it was completely invisible.
‘ah······. sh*t.’
Only then did I realize what this was.
attack of thieves.
If you ask me why I forgot such an important thing, I’ll excuse it because it wasn’t actually covered in the original.
No, why is there a band of thieves that didn’t appear in the original story?
In the original story, they were torn to pieces without a mouse or a bird by the spies who originally followed the Hurt Lockers.
“What is it, Professor?”
“Are you a bandit?”
“Everyone be quiet! I have to focus on the sound!”
Sergei exclaimed in a slightly nervous voice.
After all, the lives of the students are at stake, so there is no choice but to do so.
Then, I felt a tingling sensation behind me.
This vast magical power…
There’s only one person other than Sergei.
This crazy bastard is trying to do some magic.

Just as I was thinking about dismantling the drink, a good idea came to my mind.
“It’s eight o’clock!”
Quang!
As soon as I screamed as hard as I could, a loud roar rang out with the force to tear my eardrums apart.
this dog guy
I didn’t know you could put that magic power in one shot.
Not surprisingly, Sergei and the students looked behind me and their mouths wide open.
I sighed and turned around.
“Eh tongue.”
The smoke in the area had already been lifted by the strong wind, and the ground was drenched in red at the 8 o’clock position I mentioned.
I remember seeing this.
The fire magic Einz shot at me.
It was just an enhanced version of that magic.
“Teacher! Watch out for the kids! I’ll come and take a look!”
Sergei jumped out of his seat and went into the bush.
Soon, he walked out with an absurd expression on his face.
“The band of thieves seems to have been wiped out.”
“Wow…?”
Even the students had a bewildered expression on their faces as if it was hard to believe.
At this point, it’s time to step out.
“Uh-huh! I shot it! I shot it! See that crater! Big!
“············”.
why didn’t you come
I thought I could hear a loud noise, but again, Einz was bragging about it in a loud voice.
I felt like I wanted to squeeze a honey chestnut right away.
“Einz.”
“Uh! Schlus! Of course it’s thanks to you for pointing out the direction! Thank you, hey! Your sharp sense and the power of my magic meet… Great!
“············”.
What a fantastic combo. It would be a fantastic combination.
I approached him to pay attention, and this cub was making other noises.
“Einz. What would you think if I hadn’t given you directions?”
“That’s of course not to shoot…”
“When I gave directions. Your formula was already in the maneuvering phase. Am I wrong?”
“Uh-uh—-. But even if I didn’t know the direction, I would have shot it anywhere, so it was okay!”
“When you can’t see an inch ahead in the fog? What would you do if there were innocent people in the place you shot?”
“No, there are no people on this mountain road…”
“That’s unknown.”
“············”.
Einz shrugged his shoulders and slowly closed his mouth.
It was an expression of agreement, but not of understanding.
He wanted to be praised, so he was like a child when he was given attention as he went out and talked about it.
What is this guy? do you wake up?
Maybe I was expecting something too big.
“With great power comes great responsibility. Remember, Einz.”
“······okay.”
I spit out a bit of a strange line.
If I had said it in real life, it would have been quite embarrassing, but no one in this world knows that line.
Einz pouted his lips as if he didn’t like the situation and turned around.
In fact, I am not qualified to give such a discipline.
It just looked a little sloppy.
“hahahaha. Schlusz is right, but in the end it worked out, so why don’t we all give Einz a round of applause?”
“Wow. Wow….”
Sergei, who was holding his breath and watching, intervened, sweating profusely.
Arbitration came at a good time.
okay. As a result, it is true that only the bandits were killed without any damage.
It was the moment when I, too, was about to laugh and applaud.
Profitable…! Quang!
There was the sound of something falling.
When I turned around, a tree as thick as a baobab had fallen, crushing the No. 2 wagon.
Along with the words that drew it.
The horses could not scream once and became jerky.
“Hey, there’s a wildfire!”
“What?!”
When I turned my head to the urgent voice, this time the bushes were on fire.
Wow…
I’ll go back.
.
.
.
“I’ve run out of magic….”
“I can’t use magic anymore!”
“Woouk….·····. Ha ha················································································ Well done a great job!”
Under the calm leadership of Sergei and his teaching assistant, we began to evolve from the outside around the point where the fire started to spread.
Over an hour, dozens of students fired water cannons and finally managed to extinguish the fire completely.
Even on a tree that couldn’t use water magic, he took an ax and worked hard to cut down the bushes that could catch fire.
Einz, who had used up all his magical powers, was restless and still.
“hahahaha…….. There was a little commotion, but it’s better than getting hurt by a gang of thieves!”
Still, Sergei looked like he was going to laugh.
but. The only damage was that all of the students had run out of magical power and that one carriage was smashed together with the horses.
“Everyone, get on the #1 carriage! It’s going to be a little difficult, but still…”
Sergei, who walked into the pit where Wagon 1 had turned, was unable to speak.
Why are you doing that?
Curious, we all walked together and looked down at the pit.
“hehehehe…! Heh!”
“ah······.”
All the horses could not stand properly because they were pierced by a stake stuck in the bottom of the pit.
That’s wrong. I won’t be able to walk now.
That means…
“hahahaha. Shall we all have marching classes a semester earlier?”
“Yeah eh?!”
I mean, you have to go on foot. to the west forest.
I still have 10km left.
I wanted to stop sitting down.
***
10 km?
If you hold each of them and walk, it’s actually a distance that doesn’t take much.
If it’s a military pen, everyone will know.
But the problem is-
“Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh…”
“Professor Niim… is it still far away?”
“We’re almost there! Be patient! hahahahaha!”
“I’ve only heard that word 10 times…”
You have to take these low-quality stamina with you.
As I continued to speed up and die, I quickly became exhausted.
However, I would not have looked particularly tired on the outside, knowing that walking while panting or with a broken posture would consume more stamina.
“Fufu. I can see the results of training.”
“············”.
Seeing that, he must have misunderstood that his stamina was increasing, so Trier opened his chest and said as if he was proud.
no can it be
I shook my head and looked at the stat window.
[Displays stats.]
[Health: 17]
[Strength: 12]
[Agility: 5]
[Strength: 5]
[Magic: 1]
[Mana Coordination: 1]
[Mana Sensitivity: 75]
[Computational power: 48]
‘No, really?’
Wasn’t the stamina stat 15 before?
Suddenly, it was slightly raised to 17.
Come to think of it, without realizing it, I was thinking of stats as constant numbers.
The stats I set are all at the beginning of the novel, but they will never be absolute.
In the case of stamina, strength, and agility, you can raise it with just exercise without any special knowledge or knowledge.
When I realized this all over again, I felt stupid.
No, I mean, you’re being stupid.
“Guys! It’s finally here! Now you can rest!”
“Wow!”
Still, I walked diligently and was able to reach it before the sun went down.
I see a small fortified city in the distance.
That village isn’t just the Wrist Forest…
The Wrist Forest is that thick forest behind the village.
What is the name of the village?
I can’t remember if I’ve ever set it up or not.
“Everyone, be careful. Never go anywhere that is not on the road. You may touch a mana mine.”
“Hey!”
“And even if you follow the road, you must not go deep into the Wrist Forest. There are times when magical energy gas overflows like algae.”
“Hey!”
Now, everyone wants to know why that town is located in such a high place.
Or maybe you’re wondering why there’s such a thing as a village in this place.
To the general public, the Wisst Forest is only a dangerous area, but to scholars it is not.
Environments with both high concentrations of magical energy and unknown monsters are rare.
So from a long time ago, from the time when this was the land of the Trud Kingdom, a small town was completed by scholars and merchants coming and going.
There are approximately 80 residents.
It’s a really stinky town.
“Then the first test is-“
“Professor! Please!”
“Uh-huh! It’s a joke, a joke!”
“············”.
It was a chilling joke.
If it was Sergei, it was like he was going to fight a monster, saying it was a surprise test when he was really running out of magic and stamina.
For some reason, I felt that people were a little more harmful than in the original.
“We have prepared the inn, so everyone should rest well today.”
“Yes! Professor!”
After all, like an imperial university, money was dropped here as well.
All the students were small, but they had to share each room.
Because of this, the feeling of collegiality in a small room no longer feels like a college MT.
Still, on a tiring day like today, no one wants to get together and talk.
I washed myself comfortably and sat down on the chair.
‘Should Ki-yeon go to find him tomorrow morning?’
I opened the map I got from the innkeeper.
As it is a map with illustrations from the original, I remember Kiyeon’s location clearly.
here. A rocky mountain east of the Wrist Forest.
The forest between them is a minefield, so you cannot pass through it, and you will have to go around the lake.
I’ll have to leave a little early to get back on time for this.
Then I have to go to bed early today.
The moment I lay in bed thinking
“Oh crazy.”
I remembered what I had forgotten.
The hazy mind suddenly flashed.
f*cked.
All of a sudden, Gi-yeon was taken away by someone else.
