Sword of the Philosopher

In the end, I was able to clear the following trials without any problems: ...... It felt pretty bad at the beginning, but otherwise it was uneventful.

I'm not going to be the only one.

And when I look at that as if I'm stuck on it, Garouk asks me, "No, nothing.

"No, it's nothing: ...... all done for the day, is that it?

"Hmmm, yeah.

I'm sure you'll be able to find the best way to get the best out of it.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work for you.

You'll be able to find out if you'll be able to get a good deal more information about this.

And it wasn't until after I fell asleep that I discovered the ...... cause.

--I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find a way to make it work. I'm not going to be the only one who's going to be in a position to do this.

...... Huh?

I tilt my head back and look around. Apparently, this is the middle of the street ...... not knowing what happened, I stand there.

"What the hell ......?

I was supposed to be asleep in the mansion a while ago. ......?　If this is a dream, it's pretty clear. Would you say it's realistic? A lucid dream or something like that?

Anyway, I remember falling asleep and thinking about ...... and so on.

"Hey, what's going on?

Suddenly I heard a voice. I rolled my eyes and saw a man in armor looking in my direction.

However, the armor was somewhat unusual. There was an intricate pattern applied to the chest area. For example, it's different from the standard equipment you'd see in the Barx Kingdom .......

''What's up with the silence?''

He asks again. I figured I should respond in some way.

"Oh, oh, sorry--

Then I realized that it wasn't my voice. He reflexively put his hand to his throat. The man's eyebrows furrowed at such an action.

Are you sick?　Do you want to take a break under the shade of a tree?

"No ...... okay ......

After I responded, I started to walk away. Although I was in a dream, ...... somehow makes me think that this is reality. It's a strange sensation, but not unpleasant. ...... It's just a question that comes to mind.

I'm not sure if there is a town around ...... or even a place to be. I can see the mountainside in the distance, but it's hard to pinpoint the location.

I check my equipment. I'm a typical wizard with a wooden staff and blue robes ....... And the body is much thinner. I've been working at a research institute and now I'm doing fieldwork .......

But the warrior beside me looks quite familiar to me right now. ...... Here I decided to focus my attention not on my body, but on my surroundings. Anyway, I want information. If it was a lucid dream, there would be no point in doing this.

After a little while, a forest came into view on the right along the street. I'm sure you'll find a lot of people along the way ...... and more and more people along the way. I'm sure you'll find a town at the end of this road.

You're going to be able to find out what to do when you get to the capital.

The warrior asks. As for me, I can't help but notice

"Yeah, well, I'm looking forward to that ......

'Yeah, I know. It's the biggest town you'll ever travel to. You can stretch your wings a little bit when you get there.

That might be a good idea, too.

Then I guess we'll get a place to stay and play.

I nodded to the warrior who spoke cheerfully ...... and passed all sorts of people on the way.

I'm not just a merchant or a mercenary, but also a soldier and other people who guard the streets. ...... I can predict that the town we are heading to now is quite large.

The warrior sensed that kind of gaze, or

Yeah, it's a bit of a mess these days. Demons have been appearing frequently.

"Demon?

Especially in the south, it seems like ....... We weren't really aware of it because we were headed north, but we were headed north.

I don't even know what kind of place I'm a demon or ...... and I don't know how to answer that question.

In the first place, where exactly is this place and what do I ...... have to do with daytime practice?　My feet just keep going and going as my doubts swell.

Suddenly, I pinch my cheek. Yeah, it doesn't hurt. ...... So it looks like it must be a dream.

"Hey, what's going on?

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get away with it.

I'm not sure if there's anything else ...... that's worth mentioning, but the town finally comes into view.

'Oh, we've arrived,'

The town - exists against the mountain, and yet there is a castle. The appearance is completely different. But when I saw it, I had a hunch. This is...

At that moment, I woke up from my dream as I was about to open my mouth ....... I could see the ceiling of the mansion and I was often stunned.

I saw the ceiling of the mansion and I was stunned. "...... is that ......?

Last seen in town ...... that is--

"The capital of the Kingdom of the Barcs, Philinteles ......?

No, the exterior was much different. To be more specific, it seemed to be a little smaller in scale.

I muttered and then slowly begin to understand what happened. First of all, there is no doubt that yesterday's ordeal ...... was the trigger. If the dream continues in the same way from tomorrow onward--

"I'll have to tell you the ...... story,

Garc or Sofia or ...... anyway, I wanted to see a lot of things about this.

And most importantly, what kind of ...... I had become. There's only one answer, and I'm not sure it's the right one.

I don't know if there's any way to find out for sure, but ......

What does that dream mean ...... and is this related to the practice?

The mystery only deepened, but I decided to get up and get ready. During the process, the dream lingers in my head for a long time. Suppressing the urge to stray, I get dressed and leave the room. While greeting my friends on the way, I headed to the dining room and found ...... Sophia.
