(EP.133)Test Time #1
133 – Trial Time with the Imps #1
A few days have passed since the night I met Professor Balaan.
As for how much time has passed, the flowers of spring have slowly faded and the heat of summer has arrived.
To be precise, 2 weeks.
full moon.
14 days.
During that period that can be expressed as short as short and long as long, I roughly dealt with annoying things.
First of all, I decided to accept the opinions of the Sages who asked me to repair the dungeon. Thanks to this, I received a lot of credit and was able to climb up to 98th, the level of the gold brooch.
As a result, I also had a private room.
It was a shabby place compared to the flashy dormitory of Single Numbers, but it was still very nice to have my own private room.
– Because of you, my seat was pushed back! Duel-!
Of course, it wasn’t because of my skill, but because it was a trick, I was jealous of me and there were even minor fights with the bad guys… .
– Pauli lost? That guy, what magic did you just use? I couldn’t even see it!
-I don’t know, something like a wind flew and smashed the armor-!
They weren’t important enough to mention in detail.
It wasn’t that I was just quietly drinking sweet water.
“Oh, what? Now run with people. It was about ten seconds less than yesterday.”
“Ha, uh-.”
Perhaps thanks to Elgar’s harsh special training, my stamina was steadily increasing.
Of course, there wasn’t a very dramatic change, but maybe it was because I exercised diligently, so I started to have the physical strength of an ordinary person – enough to proudly say?
“Okay then, Tae-oh. drink this A special medicine made by the Lioness family. It has no taste, but just swallow it without tasting it. Understand?”
“Hey… !”
“Hey, freeze to death. I say it again and again, but if you spit it out, you die. ‘Cause everyone’s saying you’re good okay?”
It doesn’t work.
“Then can you tell me what the hell is in it?”
“It would be better not to know. Do you really want to know? Are you sure you’ll drink it after listening to it? As I said before, you must drink it all.”
“… I’m just not going to listen.”
It seemed that the relationship with Elgar was fairly smooth for a full month.
There were no really big incidents or happenings, but Elgar seems to have liked the way I worked out, and gave me expensive medicines.
It is said to be a medicine that increases stamina, but surprisingly, it also serves to increase my magic power, and my level as a wizard is increasing easily.
If the total mana before the fortnight was 200. It’s around 220 now.
Some might say, “Does it make a fuss over an increase of only 10%?”
In fact, Hynax, the white wizard who started to teach me magic, looked at my progress and swung his tongue out as if he couldn’t believe it.
“Sir Tae-oh, judging by your magical power, it looks like you will soon enter the fifth rank. What I, Hynax, have achieved over the past 30 years, can be achieved at a young age. The half-elf’s mystery… .”
“Then what magic am I going to learn today?”
“It’s a meditation today.”
“When are you going to tell me about fireballs?”
“You’re already trying to learn the fireball. It wasn’t until the fifth year that I finally graduated from meditation and learned about magic. Meditate.”
The only thing I learned about magic for a full month was to meditate. I was about to die trying to just sit still and meditate in a state of nothingness without thinking about other things.
When I meditated like that, the consumed magic quickly filled up, so it was useful in practice.
━Jizzzzzzzz-!
“Tao Gospel, you’re heading there! Magic, can I use more? Shall I knock you down?”
“Miss Mirna, I’ll take care of it!”
I stopped meditating, raised my arms and pointed the wand at the giant wasp’s head. Imagine a breakthrough with a high lethality.
─Air Bullet-!
Pass like.
Air bullets fired from the tip of the wand neatly pierced the giant wasp’s head. The wasp collapsed to the floor and then fluttered its wings and died soon after.
Seeing that, Mirna circled around me.
“Are there any injuries?”
“That’s right.”
I glanced at the small hole in the bee’s forehead and blew out the magical energy that was swirling at the tip of the tail wand.
Air Bullet is an application version of high-grade magic Pymon, which consumes low magic power, but increases the lethality by one point.
The Hercules wasps appeared in the dungeon to be attacked today, and I tried it once, and it was good to be able to pierce through their carapaces and defeat them with very little magical power.
Adapted to my version, there is no need to chant the Demon King’s magic directly, so the risk of my identity being revealed is reduced. Gonna do it like this

“This dungeon looks like an imaginary beast. There is no treasure chest, and there is no magic circle of the Demon King.”
Mirna looked into the last room of the underground dungeon and clicked her tongue as if regretfully.
It’s a pity that Mirnaya was in vain, but as a wizard, I was able to accumulate a lot of experience, so it wasn’t a bad thing.
When I came out of the dungeon to the ground, it was already evening. Come to think of it, it seems like it’s been quite some time since I’ve had dinner with Mirna these days, so I asked Mirna.
“Mirna-sama, if you have time, would you like to have dinner together?”
“Are you asking me out on a date?”
“If that’s the case, I think you can see that.”
I scratched my nose shyly. Because it was a new feeling that I spoke without shame about having dinner with a woman.
Of course, Mirna and I did something worse than having dinner, but looking at it now, after a while, it doesn’t feel real, and I wonder if I really did such a thing with Mirna.
However, Mirna shook her head at my suggestion.
“Fortress, I think Narmi is watching me. Tao Gospel. It’s a bit strange to see the two of us alone at night… .”
“Miss Narmi, are you monitoring?”
“Yeah, I don’t think you’ve noticed what you and I are doing… . Whenever I go out, I always try to ask. For the time being, you have to keep some distance from me.”
“Hmm.”
Just a few days ago, I told Narmi, “My sister is suspicious. I keep trying to sneak out every night. Maybe Tae-oh has not found another man besides you?” I remember hearing that.
Since the sisters share one body, it is not easy to attack.
As I was thinking about the difficulties of meeting Mirna, Mirna looked around and grabbed my hand, noticing how she understood the silence.
Mirna’s hand clasping me was warm and soft.
“Yeah, you shouldn’t be thinking of anything else. Do you know?”
“Anyone else?”
“You say you’re not officially married to me, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t date other women.”
“ah-.”
“Especially, isn’t it very suitable for the young girl of the Fortress Lioness? I know you promised to work out every morning, but… .”
Mirna didn’t like the way I met Elgar every morning to exercise.
In fact, besides today, I’ve been asked a few times recently, “What did you do with Lioness Young-ae?” or “Aren’t you two too close to each other during exercise?”
Seeing you asking such a straight-forward question today, you seem to have been very concerned.
“As I said before, I just exercise with Ms. Lioness.”
Sometimes when I’m in a weird mood, I do other exercises in the cramped corners of the park. There was no need to say that yet.
“Do not worry. Don’t you know better than anyone that I’m in love with Mirna? I am a godly man.”
“I know that.”
Mirna nodded her head reluctantly. Still, it seems like he doesn’t like me working out with Elgar.
Seeing that she couldn’t say “don’t do it” there, I felt that her head would be complicated in her own way.
If you crack down on a man, it will show that you don’t trust me, and you don’t like it because it makes you look like a narrow-minded woman?
Seeing that calm thoughts do not come to mind, I can only vaguely know that there must be several more complex reasons.
I thought I should hit the player before Mirna gets into a more serious accident.
“Didn’t Mirna-sama talk with the men too?”
“Hey, I’m talking to men. What does that mean?”
“Not long ago, in Professor Balaan’s ancient language class. You were talking to other men.”
“Isn’t that unavoidable because of the group meeting?”
Mirna speaks to me as if protesting. it would be embarrassing In fact, I knew very well that she didn’t talk much with men.
Being cold towards men doesn’t give them room to entertain.
“However, men seem to have feelings for Mirna. You even got a teacup as a gift from a man.”
Mirna is pretty and arrogant.
Pretty women naturally attract attention and gain popularity from men. Because of that, Mirna often received gifts from men unilaterally.
I also often receive letters from female students these days.
However, Mirna frowned as if she had a lot to say.
“It broke in front of your eyes. Why are you talking about me all of a sudden? By any chance, Tae-oh Gospel, I’m not saying that you can’t trust me… ?”
“Of course it could be. I believe in Mirna. So, Mirna-sama asked me to believe in me as much as I believe in Mirna.”
“Ugh… .”
Mirna is at a loss for words, as if she is reluctant but has no choice but to speak. It was sincere that he believed in Mirna. I trusted Mirna. Actually, Mirna did what I believed.
However, the problem is that I am not the Taeoh gospel that Mirna believes in.
If you find out, you’re really going to die… . I think it would be safe to make Mirna irrevocably get her pregnant right away.
The problem is that it is difficult to see the angle of having a second relationship with Mirna.
In the case of Elgar, if you create a romantic atmosphere, you will fall over. If it doesn’t work out, if I activate 《Ditch Eye》 and push it, pretend that I can’t win and make a fool of myself.
But Mirna still can’t figure it out.
I thought that the story would go on lightly with the same feeling of abandonment of innocence anyway. Mirna’s pious piety was more than I thought.
Is there any weakness that can loosely loosen Mirna’s guard?
Should I be friendly with Narmi?
I think there should be a tightrope between the two.
When I think of Draco’s sisters, I always have a lot of trouble.
It feels like you can hold it in your hand, but you can’t get it.
But one day, I’ll put a neck choker on Draco’s young girl’s neck just like Elgar’s. As a symbol of occupation and conquest, it is to hang my leash.
Sreak, Sreak.
I tried fiddling with the neck choker I had already stocked up in my pocket.
It would suit Mirna very well.
However, Mirna made an offer to me without even dreaming of my thoughts.
“We can’t have dinner together, but we go for a walk together. I have that kind of time.”
“All right.”
With Mirna, I walked along the promenade where it was starting to get dark.
The conversations I had with her were mostly godly things like my religious life and what kind of prayers I had before going to bed, so to be honest, it wasn’t much fun to have conversations with her.
“That’s why spouse prayer is so important. What kind of spouse do you want, if you pray, the Creator will—”
What, Mirna stops talking after talking for a while. In Mirna’s two red eyes, a large placard hung between the trees along the promenade is reflected.
“Guarantee the rights of the goblin-! The Ark authorities must guarantee a nap time for the goblin-!”
“The Light Flame Church should implement a goblin quota system that employs a certain percentage of goblin in each organization-!”
Mirna said.
“It is said that these days, small demons are gathering in groups and are rioting here and there. Write such large letters. Gather together and shout.”
taken from noblemt l
Goblin?
“If it’s a goblin, are you talking about the imps?”
Marmar’s face flashed in my mind.
I said Marmar would call in some goblin friends like him. Seeing things like that, it was probably successful.
If there are a lot of Imps like Marmar, it must be like a dream garden where funny stories are told.
As soon as I finished my walk with Mirna, I headed to the townhouse “Fairy Paradise” where Marmar lives.
And there I found Marmar. Contrary to what I thought, Marmar was scouring the floor with a broom, looking very haggard.
However, the reason I couldn’t speak to Marmar was because the atmosphere of the townhouse “Fairy Paradise” was so different from what I knew.
The building where Marmar had decorated the garden with flowers and trees had been transformed into a ghastly place with dead crow corpses stuck in branches and skeletons hanging.
what’s this.
“Marmar, what is this? Have you even opened a haunted house?”
“Do, comrade… !”
Marmar looked at me and was startled. Then he glanced around, frightened, as if he shouldn’t have been caught by anyone else.
