Chapter 22 – The Blonde-Haired Female Knight Accepted Me
Blue Tooth Forest. It was far from the forest I previously knew.
I could feel the murderous stares starting from the entrance, and there was a fear that I would urinate at any moment.
Is it similar to when I first entered Professor Scarlett’s mansion?
“It’s not a very good feeling~”
“It’s amazing that such a dangerous forest exists.”
“The road is wet and uncomfortable. The road is all mud.”
The summoners nearby were all looking at their surroundings attentively, as if they were feeling the same way as me.
“Newbie oppa, can you feel it too?”
“Yes. I feel like I’m being stabbed by an awl from all directions.”
My sister, who was smoking a cigarette, flew towards me and called me oppa. Anyone can see that I look younger. I guess this smoking lady wants to look young.
“I’m feeling good on the 5th day. Did you say your name is Park Ja-geun?”
“Yes, what is your younger brother’s name?”
“Little brother? Hehe. You have the basics~ I’m Evelyn. Oppa~”
After hearing what she wanted to hear, her sharp expression changed into a smile, and she flew right next to me and tried to stick to me.
“Hey lady, then New B escapes. Do it in moderation.”
“You’re still in your early 30s, so how can you be an old lady?”
“I’m telling you this, ma’am.”
“Young man. Just keep going.”
There are many cases where unnecessary friction arises between summoners. Should I say that the stronger the color of each, the stronger the argument? It was an interesting sight to see from a third party.
“Is it the effect of the forest? Everyone is becoming nervous. Newbie, please meditate so that you don’t get dirty.”
Suddenly, a man wearing a hat and hanbok-like clothes tells me to meditate.
“How about prayer rather than meditation? If you rely on God Fores, your worries will disappear, and you will be filled with only happiness.”
A woman wearing a gray dress and covering her face suddenly comes to me and puts her hands together.
It couldn’t have been a gathering full of water and oil that were really difficult to mix.
Of these, I was certain that I was the most normal person.
‘Anyway, I don’t have time for this.’
My target is the female cavalry commander riding a horse over there.
I wrote that I had sex as a reward, but I needed real sex where I got to know my heart step by step, rather than a shell that only blindly receives rewards.
I thought that only then could I enjoy it and still get a perfect score.
But the reality was that we couldn’t even say hello. Looking around, there were so many people in the way that I couldn’t reach the driver.
“It’s an attack from the front!!”
“Monsters are flying from the sky!!”
The eyes in the forest that I had felt earlier were approaching the guard with their claws raised.
At that moment, the summoners who were bickering all disappeared before my eyes.
“Clara!”
“Are they some kind of dinosaur-like monster?”
“That’s Drake, young man.”
“Thank you for letting me know, ma’am.”
The place where the summoners appeared was in front of the female knight. The man in the fedora who said he would protect me was also there, holding a pistol.
As promised, the summoners are performing their role as a bodyguard well, killing the monsters in front of them. But if you look closely, it looks like there are a lot of people near this temple.
“Leave this to me?”
“Don’t cut in line.”
There were too many summoners.
At this level, it seems like she is blatantly protecting the knight commander rather than the princess.
‘What are you aiming for…?’
I thought carefully about protecting the female knight to such an extent. It seemed like each and every summoner was trying to get the female knight’s attention, and it felt like they were putting on a show to leave a good impression.
‘Ah… It’s the rating.’
I quickly realized this after seeing the summoners’ actions. If you think about it, they all had the Summoner’s Book.
In short, the purpose was similar to mine.
Earning ratings. Ratings were a currency that could not be obtained in reality.
Since that currency made it possible to do impossible things, they were all trying to score female knight points.
“I’ve already taken care of five!”
They raise their voices more and openly show their value.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“That’s amazing. That blue drake in one go.”
“Just trust this brass.”
Like the appearance of a hero, he appeared at a time of crisis and expressed his favor.
Everyone seems to be trying hard to get a high rating.
It was the 5th day and I didn’t know that the competition between summoners had begun.
“Hmm… I don’t think that will work.”
Even though it’s late, I’m finally going to stick with Geumbit Noona and appeal to her?
I didn’t think Geumbit would take care of me if I moved right away. With so many capable summoners making close marks, how can I outwit those old people and make me stand alone?
It was stated that I had almost no fighting ability. The only thing I could do was defend myself using spirits… I invested all my energy into meeting a beautiful woman, but it was close to impossible to catch such a dinosaur-like monster and appeal to me.
‘Ah~ I don’t know, I gave up on my rating.’
I should make a bold announcement and just have emotionless sex.
I left the female knight and looked around to see that everyone was busy except me. Because they move as a group, this picture reminds me of hostage operations during my military days.
‘I feel itchy to stay still, so I wonder if I can do something… If that’s what I can do.’
“Here! The wheels of the princess’s carriage are stuck in the mud! Please help us! If the wyverns come at us like this, it will be the end!”
Rear support seemed most appropriate. Especially that long eight-wheeled carriage painted in gold.
He immediately turned back and sprayed blood into the air, summoning the spirit.
“Wow! Where are we? Are we just fighting?”
The water droplets came together and immediately shared blood with the water spirit that came out.
-I’m in battle. Please help me remove the wagon wheel. On the way, I also helped the injured person over there.
“Yes! Okay!”
When information faster than words enters the spirit, the water spirit flies away at once.
Helping those wearing golden armor one by one, they headed to the carriage where the princess was riding.
“I couldn’t see the wound because of the mud, but thank you for washing it!”
“Not much to say…”
As they headed toward the carriage, they pushed all the fallen soldiers out of the way and arrived at the carriage.
“Long tree!! You need a long stick! The wheels are so deep that one person can’t do it!”
“I will help.”
Using blood magic, he pulled out a long red rod and placed it under the wheel.
“You.”
“I’m a summoner. I think there’s enough ahead, so I came this way.”
“Thank you! Come on! Everyone! Grab the pole the summoner made and press it! Pull out the wheel with all your might!”
A bloody weapon that cannot be dissolved even by slime. Its strength and durability were so great that it withstood the weight of dozens of people and lifted the wheel. And with the power of the water spirit, the muddy floor was gradually dried.
“We got out! Put the princess carriage on the side of the road!”
The long carriage that had been interfering with the battle finally moved. But the crisis did not end there.
“It’s too late! Fireballs are flying!”
“Shield!! Shield!! Protect the princess’s carriage! Even if it means throwing your whole body to stop it!”
As soon as the carriage started moving, the next hurdle came. Wyverns flying in the sky spit fireballs out of their mouths.
Although the summoners blocked it in the air, it was too much to block all the attacks, and the remaining fireballs flew out.
-Spirit! Stop the fireball!
As I shouted out of urgency, the water spirit immediately flew in front of me. At that moment, the spirit sent a spray of water in all directions and collided with a huge fireball.
-Boom!!
Two heavy forces collide, sending shock waves and debris flying in all directions. The soldiers were hit by the fragments, but fortunately they didn’t appear to be killed and got back up and gathered in front of the carriage.
“I lived. I lived.!”
“It’s not over yet. Please create defenses right away.”
“Understood! Everyone in defense formation!”
A woman holding a book leads the soldiers.
To protect the carriage, a defense line that looked like a ragtag group was gradually created.
Nevertheless, fireballs falling from the sky are threatening. Therefore, in order to protect them, I had no choice but to stand as close to the carriage as possible and fight off the fireballs.
***
“It’s over…”
After a long struggle, everyone was lying around exhausted.
Likewise, I was leaning against a tree next to me and closing my eyes as much as possible.
“Princess!”
I was quietly trying to save up my stamina, but my eyes suddenly opened when I heard an urgent voice from far away.
The voice of the female protagonist is none other than a female knight. She was running toward the bus-like carriage, her blonde hair flying.
As she was the princess of the kingdom that she had to help, it seemed that as soon as the battle was over, she came to make sure the princess was safe.
I had to meet him right away and get points, but now I was so exhausted that I didn’t want to move.
‘Oh, I don’t know~’
She immediately closed her eyes and turned her head.
“Commander of the Knights… You have arrived.”
“Sienna! The princess!?”
“It’s okay. The summoner appeared at the moment of crisis, so we were able to overcome it.”
“The summoner… I’m glad… I’ll meet the princess for a moment.”
The leader of the knights entered the long golden carriage.
She is in the carriage for a while, and then she comes out again.
“Siena, where is that summoner now?”
“He’s probably resting against the tree over there. The wyvern’s attacks that he blocked alone would have been in the dozens.”
“The princess also asked if he was okay. I’ll check.”
“Knight Commander.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“That person is Park Ja-geun.”
“Park Ja-geun? Who is that?”
“The person who takes the knight commander’s first day.”
“… I see. If he not only applied to this hellish forest but also sacrificed his life to protect the princess’s carriage, I would smile and join him.”
“If that is what the knight commander wants… I understand. I will not ask any more questions.”
“Siena. I think you saw him and thought it was okay.”
“Oh. No. If the leader didn’t like it after seeing him, he was going to find a reward to replace it!”
“Heh. I understand. Siena civil servant.”
Seeing Sienna talking irritatedly, Henna, the leader of the knights, turned her head and walked to the tree where he was sleeping.
Sienna stood with her lower lip pressed tightly, watching the scene from afar and then turned her head.
The female knight looked at the sleeping man leaning against the tree.
‘This person is Park Ja-geun.’
A seemingly ordinary impression. He looks similar to his successor.
She stood looking at Jageun’s face one by one. Even though she denied to herself what fun it was, she continued to look at him sleeping in that spot.
