18-23. Wizard and Tower

[Just in case] The identity of the merchant Akindo is Satou.

"The master is the greatest wizard in the world! 』\\

The day I first saw the master\'s magic, I praised him with excitement.

However, the teacher looks at me with a slightly embarrassed face.

"That\'s not the case, Thalberg"

"Is it different? Only my master knows a wizard, who can use such great magic. "

"The size of magic is a trivial matter."

With that said, the teacher stroked my head.

"It is known that each person can do it with their magical power."

"That\'s why you strengthen it with magic tools and magic circles, right? 』\\

"Yeah. That is the limit of human beings. "

I couldn\'t think of the master as a human being, but I couldn\'t say that when I saw his eyes filled with his resignation.

"A true wizard is the one who built the tower and ruled the source."

The teacher said so and told me the story of the "Witch of the Illusion Forest" and the Lord of the "Tower of the Sages".

The story of true wizards who cause miracles like fairy tales with the enormous magical power drawn from the source.

◇

"Mr. Thalberg! Are you sleeping? A customer has come!"

The lively March voice awakened me from a light sleep.

It seems that I have had a nostalgic dream for the first time in a long time.

It was 20 years ago that I graduated from my teacher\'s private school.

Having served various lords and aristocrats, he is now exploring the territory of adjacent monsters in this village on the outskirts of the Marquis of Elouette, doing something like a pharmacist.

"Who have came?"

"Akindo-san! Pochi-chan and Tama-chan are coming! Windmill ? ? ?And play ~ "

--A big windmill?

I\'m not sure about children toy now.

On the back of March, who started running, I told her not to get injured, and I prepared the minimum amount of clothes to meet Mr. Akindo.

If he isn\'t all right, he should be waiting for me to drink tea at the village mayor\'s house.

When I opened the squeaky door and left the Boro house, a dry sandy wind shook my hair.

"Is this season already?"

At the southwestern tip of the Marquis de Elouette, sand from the great desert flows over the mountains, depending on the wind direction.

While I was thinking about that, I could see the village mayor\'s house.

It\'s incomparably magnificent compared to the surrounding houses, but it\'s not due to the vanity of the village mayor because it doubles as a shelter.

"Hello Mr. Thalberg, I have collected the requested Charmant grass."

"I\'ll be saved, Mr. Akindo"

When I entered the drawing room of the village mayor\'s house, Mr. Akindo said something like that as greeting.

I don\'t like this season Epidemic . Charmant grass that works well, so it is in demand in every village. It can be collected in this area, but the amount collected by me and the villagers is not enough.

"It\'s as fresh as if just picked."

"Yes, it\'s the secret of my clan."

I\'m wondering what kind of secrets can be used to maintain the freshness so far, but I can\'t just scrutinize the secret of Akindo\'s business, who would spare no effort to reach such a remote area.

"Mr. Thalberg, is this this year\'s epidemic okay?"

"Oh, the village mayor. It looks like no one will die this year."

I promised the village mayor as confirmation.

"Once you\'ve just prepared the Charmant grass, collect the rest of the ingredients and mix them right away."

"Is material collection in the monsters area?"

"Yes, that\'s a place like my garden."

Answer Mr. Akindo who showed interest.

"May I accompany you?"

"That\'s okay, but even though I\'m escorting, the monster territory is dangerous, right?"

There is no time to list all the dangerous creatures that look harmless.

"I still have some knowledge."

Mr. Akindo answers with confidence.

"Mr. Akindo is peddling to such a remote area without an escort."

"It is true……"

The village mayor supports Mr. Akindo\'s words.

Even though the roads are well maintained, there are threats of goblins and flying monsters that spring up everywhere.

Having traveled there, he can\'t be ignorant of fighting.

"Okay. It\'s not a very fun place, but let\'s guide you."

"Thank you, Mr. Thalberg"

That evening, a party was held at the village mayor\'s house to welcome Mr. Akindo\'s visit, and he spent a lively night with everyone in the village who have gathered.

It seems that the hunters did their best, and today various meat dishes are lined up for the first time in a while.

"Pochi did her best, nanodesu!"

"Tama too~?"

I saw Mr. Akindaw stroking the heads of the beastkin children.

These are the children he brings while he is a peddler. I think he\'s talking about playing with a big windmill.

"Mr. Thalberg should eat more."

"Thank you, March. I\'m good, so eat with the kids."

"Is it okay? I did it! Everyone, Mr. Thalberg says we can eat!"

March with a tray of meat on it jumps into the circle of children of the village.

Children of that age should be able eat as much as they want.

"How about wine?"

"Itadakimasu"

Bring the wine brought by the village mayor to my mouth.

"It\'s a delicious wine."

"Akindo\'s souvenir"

What a mysterious person. If you give me such a souvenir, you won\'t make any money.

"Mr. Akindow, show me a magic trick! A magic trick!"

"Is it a magic trick?"

"It\'s okay because you showed me before!"

"Then, let\'s get rid of your eyes--"

Mr. Akindou will show you a magic trick using the card.

Early work as if you used space magic.

"--It looks like magic!"

As March said in a screaming voice, it didn\'t look like a magic trick with secrets or gimmicks

I didn\'t feel the magical power, so he shouldn\'t have used magic, but what kind of technique did he use? He is a really interesting person.

"Hey, can Mr. Thalberg do it?"

March presents me with a bunch of cards with a curious face.

"I can\'t do this much"

At best Thread of reason Magic string. It\'s about floating a card with the magic.

Still, March and other children were happy to see it.

"Mr. Thalberg also uses magic."

"Yes, I learned under my master."

-A magician, without knowing the reason of magic, the way to become a wizard cannot be revealed.

The teacher always said that.

My specialty is earth magic and alchemy, but thanks to my master Kaoru, I can use magic magic up to the intermediate level.

"Mr. Akindo, please have a taste of this sake."

"The other day, I learned from Mr. Akindo that he used dried fish."

Young girls in the village flock to Akindo.

Since he is single, his daughters must be aiming for the position of wife.

It\'s not good to disturb young people, so I\'ll talk with the village chiefs about the crops and enjoy the delicious sake.

"Teacher, is the tower going well?"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

The words of the hunter Gonza makes me scratch my head.

I don\'t know if I feel inferior, but his words seem a bit prickly.

"Can Mr. Thalberg build a tower?"

Akindo, who has run away from the village daughters asked.

Perhaps he has a favorite girl in his hometown, since he has a solid body.

"Yes, well--"

"If you like, we will undertake the arrangement of building materials."

Akindo said that it was wrong to misinterpret his words.

"It\'s a dream of the future."

"Mr. Akindo, the teacher will open up the realm of monsters and build a tower there."

"Gonza! That\'s rude to Mr. Thalberg!"

"Hey, I\'m sorry, village mayor."

The village mayor listens to Gonza\'s slightly disrespectful tone as he tries to liven up the place.

"The realm of demons means that you will build the" Wizard\'s Tower "that controls the source."

--Akindo-san?

"… Do you know how?"

Mr. Akindo tilts his head to my question.

It\'s as if I told you something of course.

Where does his knowledge of magic that is not like a merchant come from?

I kept talking to Mr. Akindo about the "Wizard\'s Tower" until the feast was held.

◇

"Are the children going too?"

The next morning, I used medicine to clear my head, which was hurt by deep drinking after a long while. Epidemic I don\'t like it. When I was about to go out to get the materials needed for the medicine, Mr. Akindo appeared with the beastkin children.

"Pochi is a collection professional, nanodesu!"

"Tama is also useful ~?"

Children with mowing sickles and hatchets on their hips insist in unusual poses.

"These kids may look like this but are strong, so don\'t worry. They won\'t get in your way."

"If Mr. Akindo says so …"

You don\'t have to rush to collect them, and if the children are in danger, you can come back.

We entered a mountain leading to the realm of demons before being found by the children of the village.

"Kyupin ~"

A cat child with bright eyes jumps from branch to branch, disappears somewhere, and comes back with a unchanged expression.

"Pochi\'s nose can\'t be deceived, nanodesu!"

A triumphant-faced dog cub kicked the bushes and disappeared into the woods, returning with a satisfied look.

What they both have in common is the screams of demons and the smell of blood.

"Maybe a monster approaching?"

"Yes, these kids are excellent."

When I asked Mr. Akindo in a strained voice, I got an answer that confirmed my thoughts.

The monsters around here aren\'t that strong, but they\'re still so dangerous that ordinary soldiers can\'t stand their teeth. If you have the skill to defeat one with the force of armor piercing attacks without any damage, it is considered that you have the power of an excellent knight captain rather than a full-fledged knight.

It seems that these children have the secret that Akindo can go to the frontier without escort.

"A lot of medicinal herbs ~?"

"It\'s a Gunse land, nanodesu!"

Upon arriving at the herb colony, the children jumped up and were delighted.

It is quite reliable to know that it is a medicinal herb at a glance.

"Collect only roots for high-grade grass and only small red-spotted mushrooms for Rimon mushrooms."

"Ai Ai sir ~?"

"It\'s a roger, nanodesu"

Most herbs have their uses, but if you\'re not careful with these two types, you\'ll ruin the other materials.

"It seems that all herbs are highly effective, probably because they are full of magical power."

"… Do you feel it?"

I couldn\'t hide my surprise from Mr. Akindo\'s plain words.

"Is it magical?"

"Yes"

Few people in the human race know it.

"It\'s like a special skill of our clan. When I\'m traveling, I sometimes come across such places."

Mr. Akindou says, "It\'s a" spirit pool "or a" monster pool ", isn\'t it?"

Even among witches there should only be a few people, who can detect small source like this.

No wonder if Akindo knows about the "Wizard\'s Tower".

Yes, this is the source.

There are several similar sources in this area.

However, there is no point in building a tower with such a weak and small source.

At best, the recovery of magical power will be a little faster.

"--Mr. Thalberg"

Mr. Akindo calls me who was lost in thought.

"Shall we stop them now?"

"--e?"

Prompted by Mr. Akindo\'s gaze, when I looked at it, the two children were collecting more than enough herbs.

"Yes, that\'s enough."

When I say so, Mr. Akindo recalls them.

"Tama, useful ~?"

"I did my best with a lot of plants, nanodesu!"

"Both did great"

"Nihehe"

"Can you stroke my head more, nanodesu?"

The children who were stroked by Mr. Akindo squinted happily.

"Thank you, both of you. After collecting the tattered grass, it\'s over."

"Ai"

"Isn\'t it here, nanodesu?"

"The tattered grass is in a dark place."

A medicinal herb that grows in so-called monster pools-or rather a poisonous herb.

A silver bullet for epidemics requires only a small amount of this tattered grass.

"I can\'t go without going through a slightly dangerous place, so could you please come back first or wait here?"

"Is it a dangerous place?"

"Yes, in this area main. We\'ll need to cross the wandering parcels. "

"Is Mr. Thalberg all right?"

"It\'s okay"

-If you just run away.

Someday I want to defeat the Lord and get a source that he controls, but it\'s a mighty monster that I can\'t match right now.

A brave man or a legendary ancestor would be able to do it, but even with careful preparation, the burden required to win is too much for me.

"I\'ll be back in about an hour. If it doesn\'t come back after that, please report to the village mayor that there was something wrong with the forest."

"I understand. Please be safe."

I was sent off by Mr. Akindo and headed for my destination.

◇

"--Ku, ■ …… ■　 Earth wall Wall"

The clay wall I made is smashed by a yellow bullet.

In low-level magic that activates quickly, He ? ?It seems that it cannot prevent the attack.

Throw a smoke screen ball in my pocket and run through with all my might.

--SZPAAAAAIDYR.

A jarring roar occurs beyond the white smoke, and the white smoke clears as if pushed by the sound.

It was a spider monster that appeared.

Dominate this territory Curse King Poison Spider - Ruin King Spider.

I\'m also out of luck to encounter at the monster pool that I visited to collect.

I don\'t have appraisal skills, but legend has it that it\'s level 40 or level 50.

If you\'re a Mithril explorer who is told by the swords and rumors, you may be able to turn them back, but I can\'t.

All I can do is use a smoke ball to escape.

While moving so, I search for the pouch on my waist.

--Gone.

When I brought the pouch in front of me with an foreboding feeling, there was a hole in the bottom.

It\'s worm-eaten.

It seems that the smoke ball of the rope of reliance has fallen from the wormhole.

"… I\'m cornered"

It is impossible to escape from him without a smoke ball.

No choice but face it whatever the odds.

"■ ……"

I bet on the possibility of living and start chanting without stopping.

I\'m out of breath.

Cannot lose focus on the technique.

I stumbled upon the roots of the tree and desperately tried to do a tumbling technique.

A little after--.

--SZPAAAAAIDYR.

The roar of a monster that can be heard up close.

Please be in time.

Invoking phrase--.

-For aiming, the huge head of a monster that spreads out to fill the field of view.

The venom dripping from the fangs is like the saliva of a carnivorous beast in front of its prey.

Death cannot be escape anymore.

Then, at least use the magic by spending my life to wound this monster!

"- Green pillar stalagmites Toss beryl"

I chanted the invocation phrase with all my heart.

An emerald-colored crystal pillar extending from below the monster\'s chin impacts the monster\'s head.

--SZPBBBBBB.

The scream momentarily sprinkles body fluids, and the monster swings up its forelimbs with sharp claws.

And now--.

The roaring sound of swinging my forelimbs down in my ears, thinking and closing my eyes-stopped?

" Magic Blade Twin Fang Vanquish Fang~? "

At the same time as the out-of-place child\'s voice, I found small figure running up the monster while spinning like a top.

--A cat person?

Is that a kid called Tama?

"Now deadly-- Magic blade piercing Vorpal Lance nanodesu! "

A ray of red light pierced the monster\'s head.

Even my green pillar stalagmites only hit scratched the hard head.

When the light subsides, a dog-man\'s child holding a magic sword-probably the one called Pochi.

"Mr. Thalberg, are you injured?"

Looking back, Mr. Akindo was behind me.

"Akindo-san?"

Why is he here?

"Because the forest was a little noisy."

"Is that so……"

I thought he was overconfident and reckless, but I was discouraged when I saw the children unilaterally overrunning the Lord of the territory in front of me.

He was neither reckless nor anything.

"Thank you. Thanks to you, I got my life."

"It\'s useful and above all. Mr. Thalberg is a must-have person in that village."

Mr. Akindo watches over the battle without even trying to give aid.

"Success or failure, nanodesu?"

"It\'s an evil instant Zazan!"

Children pose for victory on the corpse.

"Pochi, demon core ~?"

"That\'s right, Arisa also said that the process of collecting once it was subdued!"

"The spider\'s demon core is in his head ~"

"Yes, nanodesu!"

After a while, they disappeared behind the head and returned with a huge demon core while becoming muddy with body fluids.

"Tarama"

"It\'s a magic core, nanodesu."

"Thank you, both of you"

Mr. Akindou used life magic to clean the two together with their demon core.

It\'s not the first time I\'ve seen him use life magic, but he\'s quite good at it. With his skill, the lord and the great aristocrats are likely to pay a lot of money to employ him.

"Mr. Thalberg, please take it.

As I was staring at the beautiful demon core, Mr. Akindo offered it to me.

Did I look so greedy?

"I can\'t receive it. It\'s yours, these children and their master."

Well, it\'s true that I want it so much that I can get claw my own throat.

"It\'s an up-front investment. Now that the lord of the territory has been subdued, can Mr. Thalberg take control of the source and build a" Wizard\'s Tower "?"

I concur to Mr. Akindo\'s question.

That spider is not the type to flock.

Now the source should be a blank area.

"If you want to build a tower, you will definitely need this magic nucleus. Or have you already procured it?"

"No, it\'s not true-I see. Let\'s follow Akindo\'s generosity."

If he says upfront investment, I will accept it.

"Once you\'ve built the tower, I will prepare whatever magic medicine Akindo needs."

"I\'m not going to make that much demand. I just want to help Mr. Thalberg."

I shook hands firmly with Mr. Akindo and took over the demon core from him.

Even if it was set up so far, it was not easy to build a tower in the realm of monsters, and it took three years to build a tower.

In the meantime, the world has undergone a cataclysm, but I didn\'t know it long after it was all over.

I am Thalberg, the lord of the tower that controls the source, and one of the true wizards.

Now that we have gained infinite magical power that has passed by humans, as a guardian of the frontier, we threaten people with monsters. Epidemic I don\'t like it. I spend my days protecting from it.

"Teacher! It\'s a customer."

"Thank you, March"

From now on, we will welcome disciples and raise younger generations.

"Hello Thalberg"

"Welcome to Mr. Akindo"

To be proud of my friends.

* The next update is scheduled for the end of June.
