Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 54

Route to return

Six days since I left the capital.

The group puts the Count of Archdut in front of their noses and restrains their feet. It was because the horses who were dragging the wagon could not hold off the vigilante.

It's almost nightfall, so I have to sleep here. Aware of this, the group quickly prepares for camp. You set a campfire and let the exhausted horses rest on one side.

Glug! Glug! Glug!

Kalman, one of the group's best cooks, prepares dinner. While everyone was doing their job, Ferda approached where Niela and the Elves were.

“What's the status of the horses? ”

“I'm recovering nicely. ”

Niela grins as she helps the horses recover. But that's not what Ferda wanted. Niela notices this as well, and adds straight to it.

“We should be able to leave by dawn. ”

I've been ready to blow up all day, but that's not bad.

I nodded as if I knew.

Kang!

You hear the sound of the edges clashing against you.

At the end of his reflexive gaze, he saw two men struggling.

“Your arm is too strong. ”

Duke Setier speaks in a relaxed tone. No matter how relaxed he was, he put his hands in his pockets. And the one who faced it was like a Mercedes Ohm.

“This level of power is adequate to deal devastating damage. ”

“That's for those who can control their power. ”

Kaga Gaga!

Two who struggle with each other's swords.

Then, the Duke suddenly laughed.

“What would you do if I did this? ”

At the same time as the laughter, the duc shifts the central axis to one step in the blink of an eye. And then Merced leans forward for a moment. And the duc did not miss that gap.

Cock

The tip touches Mercedes' back.

Immediately reversed sentence. His eyes then turned round.

“I see. If the opponent moves while attacking, my posture will collapse." Then you're more likely to get counter-attacked like you are now. ”

“That's it. ”

The duc grins.

Merced nods reasonably.

“From now on, I won't make the same mistake. ”

Mercedes picked up the sword that dropped on the ground. He then faces the duc, pointing his sword at him. Then he spoke in a dull tune.

“Then I ask you again. ”

“Hahahaha! Great! Come on!”

The peacock smiles pleasantly and fixes the sword.

The second battle that began so quickly.

When Ferda saw this, she burst into laughter.

Right after you left the capital. He asked the duc to educate Merced. Whether it was because the long journey was free or because Ferda didn't fit in well, the duc happily responded to the request.

And the education has gone smoothly to this day.

‘I'm glad it's a better match than I thought. ’

Merced was in good health. It was also strong and resilient. Moreover, he showed considerable enthusiasm for swordsmanship and duel. As the Duke of Combat Frenzy, of course I like him.

Anyway, I was less tired than I expected.

When I smiled in relief. Suddenly, I felt a familiar posture behind my back.

“Ferda.”

A voice full of trust.

There is only one person who calls him that here. It was his disciple, in fact. In fact, he was a horse with two trays in both hands.

“I brought dinner ready. ”

“Thank you. I'll eat well. ”

You take a cold tray. Shortly after, the two priests sat down in front of the campfire and began to eat. Crushed potatoes, ham and cheese, and stuffed stew.

After a spoonful, it was better than I thought.

Ferda continues to eat while savoring the stew with a satisfactory face. When I ate them all like that, the reality of the stars spoke.

“By the way, that kid. ”

“Who? Kalman? ”

“Yeah, it's a little different than my first impression. ”

He nods and smiles faintly.

“I think he's nicer than I thought. I like it.”

In the course of the journey, Silvans and Kalman were often away.

I thought you were close to your age. From what I'm saying, the first impression was not good.

“What was your first impression? ”

Curious Ferda asked the question.

Suddenly, the reality was wrong.

“How much further do we have to go? How many are left?”

Unexpectedly takes the topic elsewhere.

As a result of watching the reality for a long time, it meant that I did not want to answer. Then Ferda bursts into a mouthful of laughter and replies.

“As soon as the horses recover, I doubt they'll arrive before tomorrow evening. ”

“Hmm, I see. It's gonna take a little longer than I thought. ”

He tasted like he felt sorry for himself.

Ferda tilts her head in curiosity.

“What were you going to do when you got back? ”

“I'm going to find out Robert's full name. ”

Oh, you haven't forgotten. Surprisingly, there is a back end.

Ferda smiles awkwardly, instead of answering.

Meanwhile, the reality that was suddenly going through this muttered in a calm voice.

“After making me pay a reasonable price · · · · · · · ·. I want to learn something. ”

“What do you want to learn? From Robert?"

“Yes, I want to get a lordship education. ”

Ferda's eyes widen in response.

It was an unexpected answer.

“What's the matter? You didn't want that before. ”

“Haha, I still don't want to rot. ”

If you don't want to do it, you will do it because there is something going on.

But have there been any recent developments? When I was reminiscing with a beautiful face, the reality was again the answer.

“But I'd hate to see Ferda suffer more because of me. ”

“· · · · · · · · Huh? ”

What the hell are you talking about?

I looked at the reality with a blank face, out of my mind.

“I'm talking about when I went to see Prince Two on my behalf. ”

With the answer, his gaze was fixed on the campfire.

Immediately, he continued to speak with a sighing voice.

“If I knew more, I wouldn't have had to ask Ferda to do such a difficult job. That's what I thought when I was left in the mansion. ”

No, I didn't find it that hard.

Rather, it was much better to go on behalf of reality. Thanks to you, I made the most of it. That's why I was hesitant about how I would react, listening to the reality.

“So I want to learn more. ”

Around that time, reality turned its head.

Brighter golden eyes compared to campfire.

“Then Ferda won't have any trouble. ”

Soon after, he smiled. When I saw this, even Ferda's mouth had a light smile. I didn't have to worry about how I would react. The answer was already set.

“That's a relief to say. ”

“It's not just words. I really decided.”

“Yes, I look forward to it. ”

Ferda grins in a peculiar way.

I thought about how to educate the lord, but it was surprisingly well solved. As the worries that I had accumulated were gradually cleared up, I had a satisfied face.

Ta-da!

In the midst of an active campfire.

Ferda and I had a very rude conversation. No, he said unilaterally. Especially when he had a specific plan for how to punish Robert.

“I, Joogun. ”

You hear a voice with someone's voice.

Wearing a white robe. It was Isha Biant.

“Can I borrow your teacher for a minute? ”

Isha speaks with a cautious tone. Maybe it's because he feels like he's been taken from him. In fact, he asked with his eyebrows closed.

“Yes? Why? ”

“I want to talk to you about class for a minute. ”

“Why aren't you here? ”

“Uh, hmm. It's... ”

Isha with an embarrassing face.

A moment later, she gives Ferda a glance of sorts. It's as if she's asking for help, and Ferda gets up right away.

“I'll return the bowl for a while. ”

“Okay, I get it. ”

You look a little rusty, but in reality, you nod softly.

Ferda then returns the empty vessel and tray to Kalman. Then you and Isha head to the back of the wagon. Immediately, Isha opened her mouth, which she had tightly closed.

“· · · · · · · Darkness Wall. ”

The dark tent appears around you as your magic flutters. Dark magic that blocks sound and appearance. I asked with a curious face as I watched the dark waters everywhere.

“What are you talking about, using magic? ”

Then Isha turns around.

Then I opened my eyes and said hello.

“What the hell is going on? ”

“What?”

“It's been a little over a week since I taught Dark Magic. ”

Isha pauses, trembling.

Soon, there was strong mistrust in the blue eyes. Then he shouted with a face that was embarrassed.

“But you're so close to mastering it, do you think it makes sense?! ”

“That's right, my pupil is a genius. ”

Ferda continues with a non-trivial struggle.

Isha shakes her head vigorously.

“No, you just jumped beyond what's called genius. Teaching is more than just accepting, it's learning new things that I don't know about. What else happened? ”

Isha yells excitedly.

I think I will always praise the greatness of reality if I let it go on like this. Ferda sighs and straightaway cuts off her story.

“What do you want to say? ”

With that question, Isha hesitated for a moment.

Then he mumbles in a small voice.

“Tomorrow, increase your class share. ”

“My class? Why?"

“I underestimated your talents. ”

Isha's face seriously changed.

“To teach you everything I know, I need time to create the right curriculum. So buy us some time before then. ”

First, Isha asked me to reduce the weight of the class, and then Isha asked me to increase it again. That is, she should be ashamed. You said it backwards.

Ferda smiles lightly at this fact.

“Don't worry. I'm going to have a permanent residency education tomorrow. ”

“Huh? A lordship education? ”

Isha asked with a curious face.

Come to think of it, she doesn't know this. Ferda briefly explained the chaos. After a while, Isha yells with a silly face.

“No, you should have said that first! ”

She rubs her red ears and starts fading with her hands.

Then he muttered as if sighing.

“Just useless talk · · · · · · · ·. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“ · · · · · ·! ”

At that moment, Isha was furious with the sudden sound of her voice. There was a thread that penetrated the Darkness Wall.

“Joo, Joo? How did you get here?! ”

“Huh? I changed the magic sequence and came in. ”

In fact, he tapped the dark wall.

The reality of answering as if it were nothing, he flicked his finger lightly.

“This way you can break it. ”

Scared that the action would end.

Tsk, tsk!

With the sound of the glass shattering, the Darkness Wall is destroyed. Isha stares blankly at the light breaking of the dark magic of the six circles.

“What were you talking about in a place like this, anyway? Alone?"

“Rice, it was nothing. ”

Isha replied without concealing her embarrassment.

In fact, I narrowed my eyes as if it were suspicious. Suddenly, I was about to accuse her a little bit more, and her ears suddenly started twitching.

“This is · · · · · · · · ·. ”

He turns his head. Somewhere in the future, I could see where the forest was thick. A moment later, the realm mutters with a soft smile.

“It's been a while.”

“Yes?”

Isha suddenly asked.

But the answer never came back. The fact that he still fixed his eyes on the bush burst a joyous smile.

“I never thought I'd make it out here. ”

“I see. ”

Ferda smiles as if she has noticed something.

In the actions of the two priests who did not know the English language, Isha tilted her head. Then, the duc, who was fighting Mercedes, shouts indistinctly.

“Incoming! All hands on deck! ”

With a sharp shout, the duc's sword contains a white error. A frightening force surges like a storm. Isha raises her magical strength with a peculiar reaction.

And that moment.

A lot of glare flashed through the bush.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

Then Isha noticed the way beyond the bush. You feel a tremendous amount of energy, even though you have no intention of killing yourself.

“Lord! Get behind me! ”

Isha stands in the way.

However, he walked forward without hesitation. Isha tries to grab the arm in a state of embarrassment. But not by Ferda's interference.

“It's okay. I'm just looking. ”

Ferda smiles and follows behind.

After a while, you hear the rustling of the bush.

Immediately, something small popped out. Is that a rabbit with long ears? As soon as I thought about it, I saw something strange.

“A doll? ”

Isha screams in shock.

The one that popped out like she said was a rabbit. I even walked on two legs. Suddenly, the doll ran toward the realm.

Uncle!]

A doll in the arms of a real person.

On the sudden appearance, he asked with a face half full of surprises and delights.

“Ladina? Are you here, too? ”

[Yes, I came out with my dad!]

Radina grunts and replies.

At that moment, a crowd of a dozen appeared, scrubbing the bush. Every undead with a golden glare. Isha, who met them, soon grew tired of her blue face.

It was because he was an undead, all of whom were equally violent.

Suddenly, a group of undead kneel on the ground.

The place where their gaze is real.

“W, no way! ”

Isha shouts, her eyes wide open as if she had realized something.

And he was right.

Bang, bang!

The Undead horde crashes its head to the ground without a hitch. There is a frightening glow on Isha's face as she looks at the disgruntled undead.

After a while, the one in the lead raises his head.

An undead with silver hair. Heron speaks politely.

“Welcome back. My king."

“Yes, I've been there. ”

With the hospitality of the clans.

The king of all the unclean things announced his return.
