Prologue: Part 8
last update2025-10-19 18:06:28

After eating in the dining room, I told them my story, and they were surprised by what I said. Lucy was most surprised and said

"That's so cruel!!" Lucy said with a sad face.

"Don't be sad, Lucy.." I said

After that, the village head repeated his question while still in the village head's office. The village head said.

"So may I ask again... What is your purpose here, Oz?" said the village head.

"I want to learn a magic" I said.

"For what?" Village Head said

"For protect myself" i said with serious face

Then the village head thought for a moment because of what I said, and after that, the village head said.

"You said you found a blue stone in the chest, right?" said the village head.

"That's right," I said

"Maybe, that's it philosopher stone, and you accidentally absorbed it," said the village head

"The philosopher's stone? Like the one in the fairy tales?" I said

"The philosopher's stone is not just a fairy tale. During the war with Tara Shabate (ordinary humans), the stone was very troublesome for us, and the person who used the stone exploded because of the excess mana in his body," said the village head

(So I will also explode sometime?)

"So you also joined the war?" I said

"I was forced by someone" he said

(Someone?)

The philosopher stone was originally one and broke into 6. The philosopher's stone has a color that matches with the color of the magic element.

Red which is the same as fire, blue which is the same as water, green which is the same as the wind, yellow which is the same as the earth, white which is the same as the light. , and black as darkness. But, in philosopher stone, red means destruction, blue means freedom, green means life, yellow means control, white means purify, and black means contaminated.

The stone I have it's blue, which means freedom. It suits me, who likes freedom, because I have always been at Eva's house since I was little. I have no neighbors or friends because Eva's house is very far from the village.

The war that the village head said earlier was a war that occurred because Tara Shabate (ordinary humans) considered us witches as demons. For our history, this war is called ኲናት ኤውሮጳ (The European War), but for them, the history was not a war but was called the Witch Hunt. Witches were so enraged by that name that it could be concluded that they did not presume to have been at war with us but rather <hunted> us. The war had ended with a peace agreement not to harass each other.

"So? Are you still interested in teaching me to use magic?" said the village head.

I forgot Everything I was thinking when I heard the head of the village talk about teaching me magic. I don't care about everything because I only care about magic. It's because I love magic. I spontaneously immediately answered the question from the village head and said

"I want it" I said seriously.

Then the village head asked me again and said

"Are you not afraid that your body will explode, as I said before?" said the village head

"I just wanted to learn since childhood. If we talk about whether my body will explode or not, rather than exploding without being able to do magic, it's better to explode but be an expert at magic" I said

After I'm said that, the village head show a little smile to me and said

"It seems you so like magic, huh... you look like someone I know" said the village head

(If I meet someone who is known by the head of the village, we can definitely get along)

"Then tomorrow, I will teach you how to do magic. For now, rest in the guest room first," said the village head

"Let me show you" said Lucy

"thank you" I said

Then when I was about to leave, the village head stopped me by asking something. The village head said

"Oz" he said

"Yes?" I said, which stopped because of the head of the village

"Can you take off the ring?" said the head of the village

I took off the ring that Canavro gave me, and when I took off the ring, the village chief made his pupils glow a little. As his pupils lit up a little, the village chief was very surprised to see me. The village chief stopped the tiny light in his pupils by closing his eyes. And after that, the village head said

"Use it again" said the village head

(?)

"A-alright" I said

Then I left the room and went to the guest room.

...

..

.

As Oz left for the guest room, Canavro asked his father something about me. Canavro said

"Father saw it with the magic eye earlier, right?" Canavro said

"Yes, that's right" said the head of the village.

"What did father see from him?" Canavro said

After Canavro asked this, the chief looked at Oz's back from behind. The village head was a little pensive as he thought of the right words to say what Oz would look like in his magical eyes. Then after the village head was reflective, the village head began to answer his son's questions. The village head said

"Monster" said the head of the village while looking at Oz's back from behind.

Canavro was a little surprised by the statement made by his father because he was not very good at using the magic eye. When he met Oz in the forest, he immediately backed away from Oz because he felt threatened by him. He immediately made a defensive stance from Oz because the skill of his horse named ინსტიქტი (Instinct) was not from the magic eye.

The black centaur had a horse that was born when he was born. The horse born at the birth of the black centaur will share skills with him. For example, if Canavro has hunting skills, then Canavri also has hunting skills too, and because they are have 2 skills, so the skill have multiplier ability.

"So where will Father train him?" Canavro said

"Where I trained you first, tomorrow, please take Oz there, Canavro" said the village head

"Okay…" Canavro said while also looking at Oz's back

The village chief looked at his son with a deep gaze. The village head spoke in his mind by saying.

(Usually, in this situation, Canavro would immediately refuse because he was lazy or looking for other reasons to refuse, but, right now, he immediately accepted, maybe because he felt Oz's current situation is somewhat similar to what he is currently experiencing)

Canavro turned to his father, and their eyes accidentally met. Canavro asked the reason why his father looked at him so deeply. Canavro said.

"What's wrong, Father?" Canavro said, looking at his father

His father answered a question from Canavro by saying.

"Nothing" said the head of the village while looking back at Oz

(Oz would probably think of this kid as a little brother) said the village head on his mind

"And didn't I tell you to call me daddy!" said the village head while looking at Canavro

    (There are only three of them?)Another party killed the goblins and even the hobgoblins from behind. They seemed skilled and killed the summoner goblins first, so that the other goblins wouldn't come. They chopped, sliced, and stabbed all the goblins until some of them ran away.(I have to hide this)I hid my magic staff and began to show my sword, which was already covered in goblin blood. I did this so that my identity would be known as a swordsman, so that they would identify me as an adventurer swordsman. I started looking at them and it turned out I was wrong.(Not three, but alone?)I used my magic eyes to recognize them. The two party members had lost their fighting spirit, and the only one who had attacked the goblins was that one adventurer. It seemed that they had just returned from exploring Death Wood, just as we were doing now.The person leading them was wearing fairly complete armor, which made it impossible for me to tell whether they were male or female. From the wea

    We finally arrived at the location. There were so many pomegranate trees here that you couldn't even count them on your fingers. Here, the pomegranate trees were taller than usual. They looked more menacing, and every branch and twig was covered with poisonous thorns.“Let's pick the fruit then,” said Raya.Pomegranates are usually small and red, but the ones in Death Wood were even smaller and black. The quality of one pomegranate was as good as hundread real pomegranates. Because the environment was very dark and the sun didn't fully penetrate, it was difficult to pick them.“Then how do we pick them?” I said.“Oz, did you forget that we brought the Priest?” said Kei.Then Rosa immediately got ready and began to pray. She clasped her hands together and began to say, “God, with your grace, please illuminate the darkness that surrounds your servant,” said Rosa as she clasped her hands together.Then a bright light appeared in front of her and the light rose to the tree like a second s

    After resting for quite a while, we began to prepare to continue our journey, and I saw that Fei had not yet rested. Then Laura approached me and said, “Fei is resting in his own way, you don't need to worry about that,” said Laura. I replied, “I see,” I said.Then Laura looked at Rosa, who was still sleeping on my back. Laura said, “You have to get used to her. Even though she's annoying, she thinks about many things that we don't know. Even you know the reason why she always bothers you,” said Laura.I looked at Rosa who was asleep. I actually understood her reasons a little. The problem was that she and I couldn't be together under any circumstances. I am a witch and she is a priest, a fact that makes it clear that we will never be together.(Rosa did it on purpose so that I wouldn't feel uncomfortable with the party, right?)Then Laura looked at my mask and said, "So, what's with that mask and tattered robe? I'm really curious why you haven't taken it off yet. Do you have a reason

    Fei successfully killed the summoner-type goblin, with Kei's assist in severing its arm. Then Kei didn't forget to cut off the goblin's ear with the earring as proof so he could rank up faster as an adventurer.(I really want to do that)The earrings worn by goblins actually represent the caste they belong to. If they don't have earrings, they are ordinary goblins who don't form groups or have villages.If they have one earring, it means they are goblins who are used to living in groups and are the lowest caste in the village. If they have two earrings, it means they are intelligent goblins who have personal duties, such as the summoner type mentioned earlier. If it has three earrings, it means it is a fighter-type goblin that is sometimes skilled in using human weapons, and hob goblins are also included in this. If it has no earrings and is large in size, it means it is a Goblin King.(It seems that if you successfully kill a goblin king, a new rank above A will open up. But the rece

  • Chapter 1: Part 29

    My first journey as an adventurer began. I thought I wanted to become an adventurer because, after the receptionist's explanation, I could get an ID card and be able to find information more easily. Moreover, the guild was a center of information.On the journey to Death Wood, those who were initially relaxed became very serious. Even during the journey, they were actively hunting monsters that approached. I also participated in the hunt, but of course, because my rank was still low, they only advised me to kill slimes.(Only slimes, anyway, I'm still rank E too)They were very good at working together as a team. Fei, who had been quiet, became the best archer in the team, even beating Laura in accuracy. Raya led the attack and gave instructions, and the others followed his lead.As for the monsters around Death Wood, they were mostly just slimes, but sometimes mid-level monsters would appear, and those were the ones adventurers usually hunted to prevent them from approaching the city

    (A priest, huh?)I was wary of her even though she looked beautiful. Her face perfectly described a devout priest. The uniform she wore was more like a combat uniform for priests that I had read about in books. The difference between a priest's combat uniform and this adventurer's version was that it was made as minimal as possible and did not look like armor for war.“Why are you so quiet, Oz?” said Rosa.“Ah, it's nothing. I'm just daydreaming a little,” I said.“Today will be our first time exploring Death Wood a little. I can't wait to work with you,” said Rosa.“Yes, me too,” I said.Then she looked at my glass of tea and said, “Is that tea? Do you like tea too?” she said.“Yes,” I said.I was very wary of her and only answered briefly to make her uncomfortable and stop. I also turned my face away and drank my tea. But she always talked to me and said, “I also like tea, especially black tea,” said Rosa.(So this drink also comes in black).A little explanation, if you're curious
