Episode 7. Become an adventurer (1)

Time passed quickly and daily life continued.

Once in a while, he met the Duke of Tori, Grand Duchess Ella, and Urca, and visited the capital a few times to buy food.

He went to the festival of Pretium every year and participated in the village festival, but he did not participate in the New Year’s party or social events invited by nobles.

Sometimes the prince called me, but I ignored him.

Prince Chris’ attitude towards me has become very cautious after beating the knight commander in one fell swoop.

I wondered if the princess would be well, but the emperor was still correct and the succession war hadn’t happened.

If there was a problem with the imperial family, a notice would have been posted on the village bulletin board, so it seemed like there was no need to pay special attention to that part either.

The warriors were growing rapidly as the attitude of the warriors changed so much after Parocco came home.

I didn’t go looking for the artifact.

I was the only one who knew of the artifacts in this world, and I checked to see if there were any artifacts circulating on the black market, but there were no items presumed to be artifacts, so I was relieved.

Two years passed just like that.

The warriors have turned thirteen, and they can no longer raise their level through training.

I taught everything that I could teach, and all that was left was ‘real world experience’.

As the setting was revealed in the game, ‘Heroes grow more when there are demons in front of them,’ the time has come to send the warriors to the Pandemonium border.

As I was thinking that, a bandit event suddenly occurred.

It happened while Ariel was away in the spirit realm, saying that there was a spirit meeting once a year, so I had no choice but to deal with it myself, and I was able to drive it away with the magic scroll I bought many years ago.

But who the hell is the one who spread the rumor that he is incompetent…….

Three warriors live here. It will be cut at once!

I managed to get rid of the happening and it was the next morning.

It was a morning like any other, but today was a little different.

As long as their powers were completed, they had to take action so that they could be active in earnest.

Originally, they started their adventure activities when they were 15 years old.

However, I couldn’t raise my level any further through training, so I had no choice but to start working at an early age.

“You guys, be adventurers.”

“Yes?”

The warriors who were eating the breakfast I prepared asked at the same time.

“You mean an adventurer?”

“There is nothing I can teach you. Didn’t Maria hear from Ariel?”

“Yes.”

Maria was already able to use magic close to the 8th tier.

According to Ariel, she had to overcome herself from the 7th level onwards, so she stopped advising her.

It was the same with Tina and Iris.

According to Phasma, her swordsmanship is already in perfect condition, and she said that if she attains the level of a sword master here, swordsmen who surpass her prime will be born.

Currently, both of them had only learned how to use Auras, and hadn’t reached the level of Sword Masters yet.

“What you need to accumulate now is practical experience. What do you think is the reason you guys have been trying to be strong all this time?”

“Me! To make Master not lonely!”

Iris and Maria nodded to Tina’s words.

Why do I still remember the words from two years ago…… ?

“The correct answer is to protect the empire.”

At my words, both Iris and Maria opened their eyes wide at the same time.

From the side, Tina said, “No. She is trying to keep her master from being lonely…….” She muttered.

Why does your mental age not increase even when you get older?

“Su, Master… You know how much we resent the Empire. But to protect the empire…….”

“Right. We want to free other races from slavery, but to protect the empire.”

“There is no way for other races to survive without an empire.”

Unfortunately, this is the reality.

When an empire perishes, everything is over.

The continent of Physis is completely owned by demons.

That was the fate of this world.

Of course, if the warriors are alive, there is hope to overcome the situation.

However, what would be the meaning of freeing the slaves after countless humans, beasts, and elves died?

“Well, we are there! Well, even though I can’t use Meteor yet, I’ll get stronger soon…….”

“You can’t protect everyone alone, Maria.”

When the empire is fighting against the pouring demons, these three heroes must defeat the demon king.

In fact, it was safe to say that they had no time to defend the empire.

“…… S, can’t even Master do it?”

“I can’t.”

I’m not even comparable. Because i’m weak

“But don’t worry, I wrote down the numbers for the future you want.”

It’s not like I’m just trying to get the princess’s attention and save Duke Tori’s life.

“As expected, Master!”

The vitality of Iris has risen again. She clapped and waggled her tail gently.

“But… ….”

“Maria, the Empire… If you don’t believe in the world, trust me.”

“You say that every time…… You are cowardly.”

What is cowardice?

As she wondered at her, through her blonde hair, she could see her pouting ears red hot.

“There is something reassuring about Master’s words. So more…… I cannot refuse.”

In that case, it’s fortunate.

Hearing Maria’s crawling voice, Tina munched on her bread, pondered something about her, then gulped and opened her mouth.

“Maria, do you like Master?”

“Eh, huh?!”

“I like my teacher too!”

Before she could hear Maria’s answer, Tina raised her arm and said.

“…… Is that so?”

I scratched my head awkwardly.

I am only grateful if you like it. In that world, it was impossible for a woman to follow me.

Damn it, if you think about it, this wasn’t the time to make fun of Phasma for being a motherf*cker.

If you think about the time it took to raise all the warriors and go through the Great War, it took more than ten years.

In other words, I could be in my thirties.

Anyway, I need to find a real wife and children before the war between man and man breaks out, but I wonder if there are women who like men who talk like this.

The world suddenly became depressed.

“What about Iris?”

“Ugh, huh?! Ah…… Eh, uh, how about…….”

You wiggle your fingers and your gaze wanders.

As if nervous, the ears stood stiff, and the wagging tail stopped moving.

“Was this something to worry about?”

Tina tilted her head.

Iris and Maria seemed to take the meaning of her ‘like’ differently.

Otherwise, the answer could not have come out like this. Maybe it’s embarrassing to express it.

No matter how little experience I have in dating, I have noticed this much.

“Ah, it’s still too early…” ….”

“Yeah, me too.”

As Maria and Iris were puzzled, Tina tilted her head with a question mark above her head.

“Then don’t you like it?”

“Poetry, I don’t hate it.”

Maria shakes her hand and looks me in the eye.

Don’t look at it because it’s obvious.

If I left it like this, I felt like I would get caught up in Tina’s pace and confess to me.

Changing the topic must be something I have to do.

“Stop talking like that. Anyway, you guys should be adventurers.”

Because adventurers decide everything based on their abilities, there was no age limit or social status.

It doesn’t matter whether you’ve lived as a beggar or a nobleman, whether you’re a human or another race.

“Is it impossible to be active without becoming an adventurer?”

“You can do activities. However, you cannot get paid even if you are active, and you have to reveal your identity wherever you go.”

However, if you had an ‘Adventurer Card’ that you received when you became an adventurer, you could achieve many benefits depending on your rank and reputation.

Just looking at the S-class adventurers right now, they were being treated like quasi-aristocrats. Even the imperial family couldn’t do anything carelessly.

It was the fastest way for slaves or commoners to get ahead. Or join the knights of the imperial or noble families.

“If you become an adventurer, you can reduce the cumbersome process.”

It’s not long before they become adventurers, so rather than the title of S-class adventurers, they will be called ‘heroes’.

The setting of the game states that those who surpass the S-class adventurers, who are the most powerful in the current era, are called warriors.

“Remuneration… …. Then, will becoming that adventurer help Master?”

“Of course.”

Because adventurers usually start at F rank, it took a considerable amount of time to go up to S rank.

Of course, there was also a way to go right up.

It was to subdue the guild leader in the adventurer’s test, or to prove victory by fighting against the currently active A-class or S-class adventurers.

Considering the abilities of the current warriors, that would be possible.

“So today I want to see your skills. I’m going to watch Tina and Iris’ duel, and I’m going to check Maria’s ability to cast magic.”

“Isn’t it okay to compete with the teacher?”

“…… Come out?”

I wouldn’t have known about a year ago, but I don’t now.

Even if my body possessed Phasma, I couldn’t defeat the current warriors.

Phasma also admitted it.

No matter how hard I tried to build up my stamina and build muscle without the kids knowing, they said it was impossible to deal with them.

“No.”

“I thought they sparred me just a year ago!”

That’s what Phasma did.

Did you know that he suffered near death due to muscle pain the next day after facing sparring?

“Tina, don’t be fooled. Don’t you understand Master’s will?”

“Huh?”

“Master is saying no because he is so different from you. If you sparring with someone with a very different skill level, your skills won’t improve.”

It’s a little different, but it’s not completely wrong.

The difference between me and Tina is the difference between heaven and earth. Of course, I was the land.

“That, I see. Master, are you still lonely?”

“I have never been lonely.”

“Master is always considerate of us, so that’s what I say.”

No, Maria.

“I see… …. I am still lacking Master, don’t be lonely.”

No.

As I watched Tina gently sweep my arm, I felt a tingling sensation near my temples.

* * *

“Now then, tell me when Tina and Iris are ready.”

Tina stretched her legs leisurely, and Iris was doing her stretches steadily so that her body would heat up.

“Today I will pierce Iris’s sword! And you should be praised a lot by your master!”

“I’m sorry, but today I will take everything and fight back. I am the one who is praised by Master.”

The two of them relaxed moderately and drew their swords.

In Tina’s hand was an ‘unshakable vengeance’, and in Iris’ hand was an ‘unbreakable glory of the past’.

“You have to do it in moderation.”

“Teacher, if you do it properly, you won’t be able to show off your real skills.”

Do you know how much the ground is destroyed every time you sparring?

The appearance of Sekul’s famous hill was no longer what it used to be.

It was truly an arena itself.

Even this is because Maria fixed it with magic.

“Yes…. Feel free to do it. Maria, cast a soundproof spell.”

From noble mtl dot com

“「Sound Blocking」.”

As she waved her finger in the air, her wind barrier formed, enveloping her entire garden.

“All right.”

“Well done.”

Now I stroked her hair casually. Maria smiled and accepted her hand.

“Ah, coward! Maria!”

Tina pointed and shouted, and Maria covered her mouth and laughed.

“Whoops.”

“Ugh… !”

She sighed as she watched Tina stare at her with resentment.

“Are you ready?”

Tina hurriedly replied to my words.

“Ah! I’m ready.”

“Me too, Master.”

“Yes… …. Then ready.”

Two people look at each other.

“Start.”

Kang!

Shortly after the words were finished, a cracking sound resounded from the top of the hill.
