Unnamed Most Powerful Mage (WEB Version)

After a few hours of marching to the village of Alai...

"Dear Emerada, please wait!

One of my men, who belongs to the Second Knights of the Marquis of Ilsuka, comes up in his voice.

I look back as I loosen the horse's reins and slowed down.

Speaking of wearing armor, unlike me, my men's horses seemed to accumulate considerable fatigue and their march was delayed because of the light strain on horses due to their differing physique from men.

"Okay. Let's just say we get some rest."

I hear relief from my men in my words.

When I got off the horse, I also sat there and drank water and noticed that my body was on fire a lot.

Apparently I was in a pretty hurry.

From Irtia, the Marquis capital of Irsuka, to the most distant village of Alai, it takes two days, no matter how fast you rush your horse.

And yet as soon as I was running at this pace, the horse wouldn't work.

That way, the march on foot becomes rejected and the march is delayed.

The story of the Uranus Crusaders attacking the village of Alai is incredible to Russia. In the first place, there should have been an agreement between the Ulanusian state and the Arne kingdom that there would be a ceasefire treaty and no war against each other.

I don't think they're going to unilaterally rebel and attack it.

If you do, it means that Mayor Alai lied to you, but you can't judge him there.

That's why it makes me want to check on the current situation in the village of Alai a little faster......

"Don't let it get grand."

I gaze at my men as I shook my head.

You will still need to rest for a while.

And desperately pushing and killing the hurry, the Second Knights of the Marquis of Ilsuka, including me, reached the small high hill south of the village of Alai.

"Dear Emerada, if you cross this hill, it should be possible to see a panoramic view of the village of Alai"

I run up the hill, snorting.

And when I saw the sight of the spot, I froze.

If it was attacked and ravaged by the armies of another country, I can still tell.

I can still understand if it was burned.

But what the hell is that thing you're seeing in front of me right now?

What can I explain when I see the sight of an entire village surrounded by walls far beyond the height of an adult?

From the hills, sometimes the opposite wall blocks sight. I don't know if the Uranus Crusaders are in formation.

Besides, if it's a state of war, it would be odd for villagers to be doing field work.

But from the top of the hill, I don't see anything like an entrance.

"What do you want to do? As things stand, I don't know if the village is in danger."

"... we're getting close. Either way, I can't judge you like this. It may be counterproductive to the Marquis of Ilsuka that the entire army was covered with the life of the march and the entire village with so many walls. Never be alarmed!

My men snort at my words.

I notice it as I ran down the hill and marched to the front of the wall surrounding the village.

"... then, silly? Oh, no, no way?

In front of the wall, a huge river over 50 metres wide was flowing with furious momentum.

I studied the geography of the Marquis of Ilsuka in my childhood, but never learned the river that goes around the village in this way.

"Master Emerada, no doubt, this river is magically maintained."

Magic? You're telling me you're keeping this magically?

Magically maintain the stream of rivers flowing in front of you?

"Are you sure about that?

"Yes, definitely. I'm still a junior magician."

"- Oh well..."

I bite my lips off.

One who has no magic power cannot tell whether it is made of magic or not.

That's because the magic doesn't have the power to tell if it's interfering.

"Okay. Can you use voice magic to amplify your voice?

My men nod at my words.

"Then call me from here. I want to understand the current situation first. They built walls and rivers that surrounded the village. It must have been created as a village. And if we can set up and control all this river flow so that we can react after we arrive, we must have enough power to be an S-rank adventurer or a magician at the head court of the Arne kingdom."

I was watching the river of torrents inside, sweating cold.

A magician who can control all this water, why did it come to such a peripheral village? That sincerity is beyond my comprehension.

I see my men gathering magic at their fingertips and writing demonic squares in the air.

Then he spreads what is called the silver catalyst 'Demonic Silver' and begins a magical chant.

And my men's audio is augmented.

The call was made many times, and after a while those who had walked on the wall finally followed us.

I told him I wanted to talk to a representative of the village, and the man disappeared from the top of the wall saying that he would bring the representative soon after a little lost.

"It's late..."

Nearly 20 minutes have already passed since the man disappeared from the top of the wall.

The feeling of impatience begins to grow when people don't know what they're thinking about or what they're thinking about.

"Master Emerada, give me that!

One of my men is pointing his finger at the sky as he looks up.

Turning his gaze, there's a young man flying up into the sky and coming this way.

"Stupid? You think it's the magic of flying?

"Dear Emerada, what do you want to do?

I get lost in my men's words.

Flight magic has been studied, but there are still no examples of success.

I felt fear for the young man who came this way using such magic.

"Everybody, pull out the knife!

To my word, my men pull their weapons out of their sheaths.

At the same time the young man who was flying in the air stepped down in front of us.

"Who are you? Are you from this village?

My voice is shaking.

I'm afraid of this guy who uses magic that I don't understand.

The young man offered me to take a round letter out of his nostalgia.

There it was a letter that said it would give Yuma the chair of the village chief.

Now, Mr. and Mrs. Alai have a tough time getting sentenced to death.

Crude, is that what that couple said?

But instead, the village seemed peaceful from the outside...

"- I see. So you were right. Hey, you! What's your name?

It was a lot different than I expected, but admitting it was different here is not a good idea.

It would be nice to tell them that it was as expected.

"It's Yuma. I'm acting village chief for once."

I see, is this Yuma?

I don't know where it came from... but from what I've seen, it doesn't look harmful.

I sighed and pulled the sabel back into my sheath.
