Chapter 127 – 6-Academy (65)
Within a few hours of our departure, we arrived at Tarlen Manor, where the Certina family’s lord’s castle was located.
And they were standing in line at the checkpoint to enter the castle, each wearing a special robe I had prepared.
Rather, perhaps because it was the Certina family, a prestigious family related to magic, the ordinary soldiers guarding the castle seemed to be of a fairly high level, and the weapons they were holding were quite good, and at least one of them seemed to be properly managed.
And those soldiers inspected people one by one, and if they had an ID, they passed it through after checking it with a magic tool, and if there was no other tool to prove their identity, they allowed entry and exit.
However, those who simply tried to boil the guards with money without IDs seemed to have been passed by the guards, but they all entered the territory and were taken away by other soldiers.
It seemed that a considerable level of security had been established.
However, I can easily penetrate this kind of thing, so I was waiting for my turn to come, and suddenly a high-risk notification, a throbbing and ringing sensation in my head…Or rather, my intuition rang.
“Ummm… I had a very foreboding feeling about something! I heard…”
[What are you talking about all of a sudden? An ominous feeling… If you say something like that, there are too many people to think of, so you get confused?]
At the high-risk notification signal that instantly hit my head, I shivered all over and said that I had an ominous feeling, and Darkness said nonsense that there were many people who expected it.
And at my reaction, the soldier in front of me banged the floor with his spear! Shouted while beating.
“Hey! Hurry up and show me your ID!”
The soldier shouted with a grim face, and I could feel that some of the party behind me were getting stronger.
Most of the guys here would rather just break through with force rather than get scared when they hear that.
“I’m the one who did this!”
“No, don’t you think you’re going to blow magic?”
I interrupted Rubel, who was sure to cast her magic confidently, and looked at Squall and Hati, who were trying to boost her momentum, telling them to stop.
Both Squall and Hati seemed dissatisfied with this, but they agreed and calmed down, so I looked at the soldier again with relief.
“Ah? What are you doing! I can’t give you my ID sooner!”
The checkpoint we are using now is a checkpoint used by mercenaries, adventurers, beggars, and murderers who do not pass by high-ranking people such as nobles or the owner of a giant guild, so the soldier shouted at us vigorously.
However, judging from the fact that he did not cast a sly glance at my companions, it seemed that he had been trained properly.
But since we don’t have IDs, I put my hand on the soldier’s body and manipulated the electricity.
“Kaaugh!?”
I committed visual terror by shaking my whole body with dirty saliva from the man’s mouth, but manipulating memories and having subsequent actions and memories manipulated in turn requires tremendous control, so I had to concentrate my mind, albeit a little bit. .
“Whoa…It’s over!”
After manipulating the soldier’s head like that, I removed my hand from the soldier, and the soldier opened the way for us, leaving the road with a dazed expression as if he had lost his senses.
Right now, the soldier must be recognizing and thinking that we showed our ID cards.
And if we disappear, the memory of our arrival today will disappear, and the sense of discomfort associated with us will disappear.
When I finished the job so perfectly, the kids gathered behind me, especially Squall and Hati, seemed quite surprised, and Senia and Mist smiled as if they knew this would happen and raised their thumbs up behind my back.
In this situation, I raised my hand above my head and said, saving the atmosphere.
“Okay…Then let’s go in!”
At my words, all the children shouted ‘Oh!’ And clung to me, and I led my party and quickly moved inside, and the other kids followed my actions and finally entered the territory.
After passing the checkpoint, what I saw was a shopping street with numerous shops and inns.
Along with the noisy atmosphere, people who wanted to attract people’s curiosity and attention to sell products and people who were slowly watching and worrying about such things stood in a row.
And befitting such a lively place, the streets were also quite clean, and the facilities were built quite nicely, and the most visible things on the streets were, of course, wizards.
“I see… That’s amazing. It’s not just a prestigious family related to magic.”
[That’s right… It’s really amazing!]
There were cases where many wizards used magic to buy research materials or set up shops, but considering that wizards are obsessed with research to the point that it is said that even a king can be killed for the purpose of magic research, it can be said to be truly amazing.
In addition, the composition of the building was well organized, so it was not messy and it was a nice sight to see.
And I wasn’t alone in this admiration.
Like Shuri, a hikikomori who lives in the forest and an elf who calls herself an incarnation of nature, Squall and Hati, who are from a beast race that builds buildings in the forest and calls it a kingdom, were also very surprised.
“It’s developed to this extent… It’s amazing.”
“Keugh… I can’t help but admit this.”
“Yeah… That’s great!”
These three people were genuinely acknowledging and praising the greatness of this territory.
Perhaps the speed of human development for these three people is incredible.
Humans can’t handle magic better than elves, but through constant research, wizards have found a way to amplify the power of magic by joining forces.
Although they lack physical ability compared to the beast races, they have been able to deal with the beast races by developing weapons to compensate for this.
And these were all developed and created when the beast races and elves were proud and ignored humans.
Because of their slow development while ignoring humans, they were captured, killed, ignored, and treated as slaves by humans.
That’s why, to be honest, I don’t feel sympathy for the beast races and elves like the hero.
Because the current situation is all from them, and even now, I can’t come to my senses.
While thinking that, I looked at Shuri, Squall, and the Hati sisters.
I don’t know when it will be, but I will completely wipe out the beast races and elves, take their territory, and take everything from them.
And when I thought that the first starting point for that was these three people right in front of me, I felt that my cock was getting hot without realizing it.
[…Perverted bastard]
‘Shut up, you bastard succubus bat!’
“Whoa… First of all, let’s find an inn where we can stay!”
I quickly refuted Darkness’s words and led the children deeper into it.
As a result, people’s eyes were focused on us, but when I subtly raised my spirits, everyone quickly turned their faces away.
“No…No…No…Not here at all!…”
“Ummm…What’s wrong Artel? Can’t we just go somewhere?”
As I thoroughly inspected my surroundings and assessed the size of the inn, the number of rooms available, and the surrounding landmarks, Rubel, who was behind me, tilted her head curiously and asked:
“It’s simple. What we’re trying to do is infiltrate, so we’re trying to find a place to stay where it’s as difficult as possible to find out who we are and where it’s easy to escape.”
Rubel, who nodded her head as if in agreement with my words, raised her body and shouted as if she remembered Rubel.
“Then we can go there! Everyone follow me!”
“Eh!? Uh…Sister!”
“Ehh… Just chase after me!”
We followed her shaking our heads at the sight of Rubel suddenly shouting and running somewhere behind her, and her Rubel moved quickly around and stumbled into her alley.
Hahahere it is here!!”
“Hey…Hey hey! You damn sister!!”
Even when we entered the alley, there were no thugs or beggars who would naturally follow us when they saw us, and thanks to that, we were able to run quickly without any hesitation.
And the place where Rubel led us like that was a dead-end alley with an exposed sewer next to it, where a stench flowed.
“Ugh…My smell!”
“Auuuuu!!”
Squall and Hati were tormented by this smell, and Shuri was blowing the smell away through the wind spirit.
And when Rubel saw us like that, she grinned and knocked on the wall of the dead end.
“Tada! Coming soon! This is my secret lab. I mean!”
Saying that, she put her hand on the wall, and to her surprise, Rubel’s hand went inside the wall.
Hehe, come in quickly!”
Rubel shouted with a bright smile, and we put our hands on her wall like her, as if we couldn’t help it.
Then, with the feeling of being sucked in, we were sucked into the wall one after another, and finally, when only I was left, Rubel took my hand and went inside together.
“It’s true that he created a passage that only responds to your mana…”
I passed through her secret passage and quickly analyzed it.
I don’t know when it was made, but it looked a little immature, but more than that, it was a device that showed great genius.
