To the forest of the wise (2)

“There are useful potions, but… .”

Hori didn’t speak, but looked at me with a blurry end of her words. He looked suspiciously as if asking where he was going to use it.

Considering what I’ve done so far, it was unavoidable, but I felt a little sad that I wasn’t trusted.

“I can’t even go to the academy because I’m on probation, so I’m going to go out for a while and come back.”

“Are you out?”

“Yeah, have you ever heard of the wise man’s forest?”

Perhaps he didn’t know him well, Hori thought for a moment and then nodded.

“I don’t know the details, but I’ve heard that it is the place where a great magic swordsman named Pier died.”

“okay?”

I thought it was a magician-related place because it was the sage’s forest, but it was a magic swordsman.

Still, looking at the so-called Forest of the Sages, it seems that the man named Pier was more confident in magic than the sword.

“But what are you going to do in that forest?”

“I’m going hunting because there is a very strong beast in that forest.”

When I briefly explained the situation, Hori somehow made a happy expression on her face and looked around the desk.

“If that’s the case, then there’s something just right for you!”

With that said, what Hori took out was a small red pill in a bottle.

“what’s this?”

“It’s a pill that temporarily increases muscle strength significantly! It has a short duration and a few side effects, but the effect is huge! When I ate it, I could move a huge boulder!!”

“okay? What are the side effects?”

“that… It is not a side effect that leaves a sequel. Small pain in the muscles of the whole body… .”

When Hori blurted out her words, I took the medicine bottle from Hori’s hand and took a pill out of the bottle.

Then he opened the cage on the desk and dropped a pill inside.

“Cheeky!!”

When the pill ran out, the white rat screamed like a traumatized veteran, ran to the end of the cage, wrapped its head around it, and trembled.

I was speechless at seeing the behavior more like a human rather than a Jurassic, and I stared blankly at the vial.

“A little pain?”

“that… Room 1,291 is a bit harsh.”

“… … Room 1,291?”

“Only the name!! It’s just the name!! I didn’t kill 1,290!”

“… … Is that so?”

Well, I didn’t kill anyone, I only killed a few rats, but I don’t really care if 1,290 were killed.

In the first place, I only killed a few people, but it’s strange to be surprised by that.

“Anyway, I’m sure you’ll get it, but is there a potion that restores stamina?”

“There are a few spares in the health recovery potions that I made to deliver.”

It’s sold in the market, so it’s not very effective, but it can be used as a first aid.

I said to Hori, with a black but one-size potion bottle and some suspicious vial in my pocket.

“Then I’ll go back and pay the money. If it doesn’t come after a month, you can just take all the money in my dormitory.”

“No, not much money… But are you planning on going for a month?”

“No, I might die. When you die, you don’t need money, so you can just take it all.”

“Yes? Yes?”

With that said, I jumped out the window as I did when I came here.

Now that class time has passed, almost no students are going out, so I was able to go back without being noticed by anyone.

Like a ninja, I ran up to the wall in an instant and climbed over the wall, and I only lifted my head when I came out of the dormitory and came near the broken fountain.

‘It’s quite dark.’

Suddenly looking up at the sky, the sunset light and dark blue light formed the boundary line.

Right now, I can still go without lights, but it looks like it will be completely black soon.

‘Now is the right time to go to the dormitory, pack your bags, and go out with Silence.’

Unlike before, on the way back to the men’s dormitory proudly, a familiar head of a bun caught my eye from afar.

“you… !”

Jessica, with her hair in a bun shorter than before because her hair was cut during the duel, was panting as if she had been training a while ago.

It doesn’t look like you’ve trained that much considering your physical condition, but do you really think you can beat me with that kind of training?

With that thought in mind, I approached Jessica, waving as if I had met a close friend.

“Hello Jessica!! were you on a walk? It doesn’t look too strong!”

“… No, I was training. I want to smash your naughty face quickly.”

Compared to when we first met, Jessica’s mouth became quite rough.

In just a few months, wouldn’t a bad bun-haired young-ae be born with a fucking sound in her mouth?

It seems like it would be fun too, but if you’re a young girl with a bun hair, it’s more appropriate to use a noble tone than such a vulgar one.

“Anyway, if that’s the case, I think I’ll be able to try again soon! I will lose again anyway.”

“Now those cheap provocations don’t work for me. Leave it alone! I’m going to instill politeness in that head in a few days!”

“Is that a bit difficult for a few days?”

When the unexpected words came out of my mouth, Jessica tilted her head and asked.

“What? Were you even scared?”

To say such a thing even after suffering such a disastrous defeat a few days ago, at this point, I think it’s more amazing than ridiculous.

“It’s not that I’m scared, I have nothing to do while on probation, so I’m thinking of going camping.”

Jessica snorted as if she had taken my words as they were.

“It’s amazing… ! what kind of shit is that Anyone who hears it would think I was given a vacation as a reward.”

Then Jessica continued to make funny noises, saying that if she stays calm like that, she will immediately catch up with her.

Hearing such a noise from the guy returning home exhausted from training to the point where he barely sweated, he couldn’t come up with a word.

“By the way, you said that you didn’t know your subject and you tried to challenge Sir Peter and you lost?”

“… what the fuck?”

Cursing came out of my mouth without realizing it at the slander that I could never get over.

Seeing me like that, Jessica continued to say with a cheeky smile.

“Looking at that expression, it looks like the rumors were true. Aren’t you so ignorant of your subject that you barely know the subject of a student?”

“… … Ouch!!”

This cheeky female bun-haired girl!!

Barely holding my hand going to the hilt, I asked Jessica.

“… Do you believe such nonsense?”

“Oh my, are you trying to say that you didn’t try?”

“No, I’m just trying to say I won.”

“You won? you?”

Having said that, Jessica covered her mouth with her hand and laughed out loud so as not to be able to control herself.

“Oh ho ho ho ho!! One of the funniest words I’ve ever heard! I’d rather believe that a dog bit a beast and killed it!”

With those words, Jessica laughed at me and turned her back on me.

Just before Jessica left the seat, I slapped Jessica’s buttocks as it was.

“Hey!!”

Jessica, who ate a foot in her ass, curled forward and slammed her face to the ground.

Jessica slowly raised her head and said, as if it was more of a pain in her butt rather than her face.

“Doing this… !! Are you finally out of your mind?!”

“It was your fault for turning your back on me. With such a defenseless back, you unintentionally kicked him.”

When Jessica was given a reason that was too good to be fired, all she could do was tremble and tremble.

“Crazy little kid… !! I’m sure you’ll regret it!!”

“Then I will make you obsessed. Of course in Baldo!! Balhahaha!!”

As Jessica did before, she laughed out loud and heard Jessica grinding her teeth from behind.

That sounds nice. If I had a smartphone, I would have recorded it and used it as a morning alarm… .

*****

Returning to the dormitory, I headed to the stable with the backpack I had packed in the room.

As I entered the stable, Silence greeted me with gloomy eyes, as if realizing that something trouble had happened.

“Silence, I’m going to a dangerous place from now on!! Oh, but don’t worry too much! If you break your leg, I will euthanize you right away!”

“… … .”

As if he understood what I was saying, Silence did not want to leave the stable, but the horse could hardly defeat the power of a human who had learned the art of foot swords.

After forcing Silence to remain in the stable, I headed straight to Otar’s forge.

Perhaps Silence had resigned when he came all the way here, so he didn’t run away and just stood there quietly by my side.

Perhaps he was waiting the moment he opened the door and was about to enter the smithy, Otar came out first.

“Are you here?”

After a few words, Othar showed me two katanas stacked in cloth.

Having received one of the two first, I unwrapped the wrapped cloth and slowly pulled the katana out of its sheath.

“… This is good.”

There was nothing special about it, but looking at it, it was a beautiful katana that made me want to cut people as a test.

After checking the date, I immediately led him back and put the katana on his waist.

And the other remaining katana was unwrapped without checking the blade, and was worn around the waist as it was before.

“Aren’t you going to check me out?”

“If I see the same thing again, I think I’ll want to cut people off unintentionally. Then we will go.”

“… Yeah, I think it’s good for the world that you don’t come back, but come back alive anyway. The opportunity to make a sword with the teeth of a demonic beast comparable to a young dragon is rare.”

“… Yes? Well anyway, I know. then.”

No, of course it’s better for me to be alive. What are you talking about?

Are you ashamed to say that?

Thinking the old man’s tsundere was disgusting, I climbed onto Silence’s back.

“ruler! Gaza!!”
