Chapter 68 – Choose to Do It or Not
We arrived at a place called Warp Gate.
It was a building with a strong sense of roundness, but like a temple, there were many pillars and almost no walls.
After getting off the carriage and waiting for a while, two people ran out of the building.
Just look at them, they’re wizards.
Among them, a middle-aged bald man said, wiping sweat with the back of his hand.
“This is Mr. Gold. Sorry to have kept you waiting.”
“Are there any problems moving?”
“Yes. You can leave immediately.”
Oh oh…
Are we finally going to that island in the sky?
“If you have business at Prunar Academy, it seems a bit difficult to get in at this point.”
“Hmm? Why is that?”
“I’m not sure, but it seems like there was an accident. I heard that people who were staying at the dormitory even during the vacation were receiving subsidies and staying at another place.”
“An accident at the academy…?”
Gold’s eyes narrowed.
A fidgety old man who thought he was angry.
It looks like he’s regretting it, but he’s not angry.
Gold is angry with his actions, but he is so cute that people are scared even by small actions.
“Gold. It’s not just today, so I’m fine.”
Gold groaned and said.
“Hmm. It’s unfortunate, but I can’t help it. Can you open the gate?”
“Yes, yes, of course!”
He crouches and glances at me.
What kind of guy is he trying to match gold?
However, soon the man looked surprised as if he had come to his own conclusion.
“Are you Mr. Dre?”
“You’re right.”
“Oh, oh oh! That’s right! I finally get to see the rumored person in person!! Welcome, Mr. Dre! Oh, my name is…”
“You’ll have another chance to speak later. Open the gate for now.”
“Yes, yes!”
The uncle ran quickly, and the man who appeared to be an apprentice chased after him.
Didn’t you let me finish what you said?
“You don’t have to be in such a hurry.”
“Um. It was my judgment. I’m sorry if you were offended, brother.”
“No. I’m not offended.”
But what judgment?
“They are also talented wizards who have reached a certain level or higher. However, they are grinding their teeth because they are not allowed to enter the academy. They are also trying to enter by making a rope for students, but my older brother, who even has instructor qualifications, will look like a rope of salvation to them. “
Aha.
You mean you see me as a connection.
“There won’t be much trouble, but it’s definitely going to be a nuisance. I’m sorry I stopped with that thought. After that, I’ll leave it to my brother’s judgment.”
“No. Thank you for your appropriate response.”
I’m bewildered.
It’s not because they crawl to Gold, but those people must also be in an enviable position socially. In my original world, do I feel like the employees of a large company?
It’s strange that they’re trying to make me look good just because they have instructor qualifications.
Well, that’s it
What does warp feel like?
I was looking forward to the view from above, but I was also interested in how to get to the floating island.
But Gold is looking around.
It must be a familiar landscape to him, but did you come up with anything new?
“Why is that, lord?”
Kaisir and two knights who came as an escort approached Gold and asked.
Gold let out a satisfied smile.
“No, I just thought of a guy who only talks.”
“…”
I’d like to, but gold.
She said that Elle would come, but she didn’t see it, so it’s not a good feeling… ?
In less than a minute, the uncle came running again.
It was pitiful to watch him gasping for breath.
“The gate is ready…!!”
“I get it.”
Maybe it’s because I’m used to it, I don’t receive guidance, and I go gold on my own.
I followed him and soon came to a spacious room.
The room was colored emerald, and the walls were polished to the point of being made of stone.
A column engraved with four geometric sentences shoots blue light toward the center, and the emitted light gathers into one and is 4 meters high in the middle of the column. A portal about 2 meters wide was created.
That’s a warp gate.
It’s like a whirlpool, so damn cool.
“If you walk straight into it, you will arrive on top of the floating island.”
“Is the portal safe?”
“Of course! I saw the record of how much blood and sweat the previous wizards put into making warp magic safe, and I was respectful of myself.”
“Hoo.”
“Well, it would have been impossible if it wasn’t for Parfait of Wisdom, one of the teenage heroes.”
Parfait…?
What an appetizing name.
Since he was involved in the warp gate, he must be a wizard, right?
Before coming to this world, I hadn’t seen a wizard in the video I played to know the setting.
No, did you see it?
There was a guy who used magic in the sky, but he was so small that he couldn’t even distinguish his gender.
Anyway, that’s irrelevant for now.
All my attention was focused on the warp gate.
Gold, who strode forward first, grinned.
“Warp is something you’re experiencing for the first time, Brother Dre.”
“That’s right.”
“It will be fun.”
Gold entered the gate without hesitation, and Kaisir and the knights followed suit.
I didn’t go right in and looked at the sentence of the pillar.
Is this obviously a rune in the setup? Whoa. Hmm.
“Hey, Dre?”
“Oh, yes. I’m sorry.”
I woke up to the sound of a man calling me cautiously from behind.
I’m the type to check every single detail when playing a game, so I look at this and that.
Isn’t it just me?
Going to a place that seems to be a dead end or useless place while progressing in the main story and looking for something.
After looking around a bit more, I was satisfied.
As Gold says, it won’t be a place you’ll come to once or twice, so let’s start.
So I stepped into the gate.
I put my feet in and it felt like a cool breeze was blowing.
It’s pounding.
The moment you put your body into it with a fluttering heart.
Aaaaa!!
“Oh clothes.”
An amusement park that I have only been to once in my life.
And the only ride, the Blue Dragon Train. It feels just like that.
The difference is that the one at the amusement park was accompanied by a feeling of tearing the stomach, but this one was comfortable and fun to the end.
And soon, a sense of incongruity came.
This sensation covering my whole body is unmistakably Ryunar.
…
An assumption came into my mind. And.
Tring!
[Activating the skill Understanding of All Things.
…
…
As a result of the analysis, your assumptions are likely to be correct…]
It was the moment when I recognized a certain fact while receiving the certification of the system.
[Dear.]
?
[I’m always cheering for you…]
A woman’s voice… ?
Aaah!
The moment I recognized that it was someone’s voice, the floating feeling disappeared.
In front of my eyes, I saw a new landscape beyond the round gap in the dimension.
It was similar to the previous room, but in a different color.
If the room before the warp gate was emerald, it was closer to reddish brown now.
I thought for a while.
Voice…
It was a voice I heard somewhere. Where were you from?
But no matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t come to mind.
Wasn’t that a very strong memory…?
I don’t know.
Could it be that you have heard hallucinations?
I tried to warp again to check, but I felt sorry for making Gold wait longer.
If you hear it later when riding a warp gate again, let’s investigate it properly then.
And I got some unexpected information.
If you know it, you might be able to use it someday.
It would be a story when the people who manage this floating island and the warp gate give permission.
“Brother! Come out!”
Gold’s voice broke my thoughts.
I’ll try it later, and the first thing is to visit the floating island.
“I’m leaving.”
When I went out of the circular opening, it was a room of the same size as before.
As soon as I came out, there was a cooing sound behind my back.
Looking back, the warp gate gradually decreased in size and disappeared completely.
“Warp gates waste a lot of mana. So we can’t keep them open.”
“Is that so.”
“Then follow me, older brother. Even if you can’t get into Pryunar Academy, there are so many things to see on this floating island.”
Beginners just have to follow the guide.
Later, when I have free time, I will try to shoot it by myself.
For example, going to the end of the island to see if this space I am stepping on is really floating.
Now I don’t feel any floating at all.
It was a land that looked so big even when looking up from the ground, so it would have been natural if it were natural, but there was no difference from the ground to the extent that it was unbelievable that it was a land floating in the air.
Went out
The warp gate was all there, but the building was the same temple-like structure as the one I saw earlier.
But the moment I came out, I had no choice but to open my mouth.
I didn’t think that the academy would be the only attraction in such a fantasy land, but this is beyond my imagination.
First of all, the buildings were unusual.
It was not just tall, but the design was extraordinary, so it was a pleasure to see, and some roads were directly connected to the building.
The use of the building also seemed to vary.
A restaurant as well as a clothing store. Variety store. It has everything, even a flower shop.
If you look up to here, you would have felt that it was only a sophisticated city.
But this is a fantasy world, right?
Booung. Boooung
In the sky, people riding round objects like pillars or people riding objects like dishes fly around.
Not only people, but also owls and creatures that looked like little dragons were flying around, and firecrackers exploded from time to time. Even the firecrackers are silent.
Above all, there is a small lake above the sky.
It’s not that I misunderstood the description.
A vast amount of water is floating in the sky and carp are swimming.
Of course, they were swimming in a line that did not disturb the sky passers-by, and there were barricades around the lake.
When I looked at the ground, I saw a fountain, and the water didn’t just flow upside down, but scattered in all directions, then came back together, wriggled, and changed into various shapes.
There were not two fountains like that, so it was fun to see the fountains spouting water all at once and changing their shape.
In the distance was a stone statue that looked like a huge stone giant.
No, it’s not just a stone statue.
It was moving slowly but surely. He opened his huge fist and set it down on the ground, then slowly turned his back and lowered his hand back to the ground.
I’m guessing he’s probably picking someone up.
People’s faces are also different.
It was called an academy, so I thought there would only be students, but there were people of various races and all kinds of traditional costumes.
They look like ordinary citizens, but considering the fact that the wizards in the warp gate below are not allowed to enter, they must all be doing something.
“This is a shopping mall.”
“Are you going here?”
“Isn’t this a nice place?”
“…Yes.”
Admired
Even just in front of the entrance of the shopping street, this is it.
To be honest, I wanted to explore all day.
But today, Gold will have something to show you…
“First of all, it’s morning.”
Today, I didn’t even eat breakfast, saying I would eat on a floating island.
“That’s right.”
“I know a decent place. Does your brother like sweet things?”
“Yes.”
I can’t eat because I don’t have it.
There is a vehicle that will take you to your destination.
He recommended that the ride was quite good, but I said let’s just walk.
It’s nice to ride in a fantasy world, but now I wanted to see the streets slowly.
Gold seemed to notice my pounding heart and agreed with a chuckle.
While walking, Gold explains various things.
“Students of the academy don’t have to go down to the ground. They don’t have to go down to Sers, everything is provided. Even the wizards who were at the warp gate earlier can enter and exit this far.”
“Is that so.”
The fact that employees can come in too, is it wrong to speculate that they are single-handed people?
“But even to come this far, qualifications are required. All of them are those who have met a certain standard. For example, they are level 5 or higher adventurers. What kind of quests have they completed, how much donations have they made, and so on.”
I guess I wasn’t completely wrong.
At first glance, they seemed ordinary, but they were all talented people.
“They’re excellent people. Is there anyone among them who has a bad heart and tries to break into the academy?”
“Why not. But all of those idiots will taste the bitterness.”
“Is that so.”
“The academy has a strong barrier, so only students, instructors, and those with permission to enter cannot enter. Almost all of them cannot penetrate even the weakest barrier.”
Barrier.
My heart beats again at the very familiar sound.
“I’m curious.”
“Yeah. I’m curious too. There’s that barrier, but some accident kicked out the students from the dormitory and restricted entry until the repairs were done…?”
I said something like that before.
I thought so, but it must have been a pretty serious story for Gold.
While walking, I saw the stone giant earlier.
Gold said golem. Looking closer, it was over 20m tall and his hands were abnormally large.
As I thought, I put people on my hands, put on something like a protective shield, and move them to the upper or lower floors of the building.
It’s an elevator in a fantasy world!
“Let’s get on in a little while.”
“Is that so.”
Gold notices what I’m trying to see through and takes care of it.
It looks like fucking fun even if I try to stay calm, but I can’t help it.
I’m curious how it works.
I could feel Kaisir acting like a country boy by my side, but what the fuck. I don’t know the attention of the people around me.
While looking around, I arrived at the store I was aiming for.
The impression is a high-class tea house.
It is a teahouse that looks like something out of a fairy tale.
There were actually fairy lights flying around.
“This store has excellent drinks.”
“Is that so.”
Gold doesn’t have a particularly strong appetite.
I was looking forward to seeing him guarantee this much.
At that time.
“Isn’t it gold?”
Gold turned his head at the somewhat languid voice. I also turned my head.
There was a beautiful woman dressed in a very desirable outfit, with three shirt buttons undone, revealing a peek at her breastbone.
Is that a school uniform…?
At first glance, it looked like a normal school uniform, but it was unusual to see a magic pattern flickering on the shoulder.
Her students were not only her.
There were dozens of girls around her, all wearing the same school uniform and giving off different vibes.
From the calm-looking girl with glasses to the ones who look like ordinary high school girls.
Hmm…
I’m the hardest to deal with normal high school girls…
All of them were pretty, but the woman who spoke to Gold stood out among them. That
Even so, it’s not as good as El or Clarir.
Ashitaya, of course.
In the meantime, there was a very pretty girl with blonde hair who looked overbearing, and she seemed like she was about to laugh. Can you get a sense of what it looks like?
Seeing that the other girls are sitting around her with the girl she first talked to, I guess those two are the leaders.
The languid beauty has a tired face, and the oh-ho-ho-ho woman is slowly fanning herself with a relaxed smile.
…Uh?
Wait, that first woman and that roll-haired woman. Where did you see it?
“You seem busy these days.”
The beautiful woman with a tired expression continued the question from earlier.
“Yes, Laiet. Long time no see.”
Laiet… Laiet…?
…Ah.
That face.
I remembered that sluggish, desirable woman and oh-ho-ho-ho.
Those women are also characters in the set.
A sort of, sub-heroine-feeling girls.
Involuntarily, I stared at it, and the Sero Roll girl, who was covering her mouth with a fan, folded her fan with a snap and pointed at me.
“Who is that man?”
It’s just that I didn’t say it later, but I feel bad because I keep messing with it. It seemed to be heard saying.
At her words, Gold grinned and pointed at me.
“I’m sure you guys have heard it too.”
“We?”
“Yes, Laiet. This is the person who will be our swordsmanship instructor from the new semester.”
“…Ah.”
Raiet’s eyes narrowed, the serrol girl widened her eyes and then put her mouth together.
“The Stranger Dre.”
Unexpectedly, I met students who I will share the joys and sorrows of, or teach with.
While thinking so, their eyes change.
It was an unexpected look.
