Chapter 10 – Your Name
In the place where the intangible blade swept past, the fallen ears of wheat rolled on the floor.
I picked up an ear of rice that was rolling at my feet.
A neat cross-section as if it were cut from the stem with a blade.
Even so, the grains of wheat in the chaff were not spoiled at all.
‘I didn’t expect to use it this way.’
Originally, Ilshin Gwangju was a magic I developed to use for long-range sniping on the battlefield.
It focuses only on the cutting power of the blade, so it is relatively weak compared to other magics of the same class, but it is good for killing enemies from a distance because the basic range is very long.
“Waaaaa!”
“Awesome!”
“Awesome!”
In the meantime, the residents who were watching me use magic from behind cheered and rejoiced.
It felt like I was being bowed down and bowed down, but I didn’t feel too bad.
“Then, residents, please pick up the grains that have fallen and gather them in one place.”
As I said that and stepped aside, the villagers all entered the fields and began to glean, as if they had waited.
Vanessa stared at the wheat field, where most of the ears were cut off in one magic shot, with a tired expression on her face, then approached and threw a word.
“You must have been a much greater wizard than I thought.”
“Your reputation as a great mage didn’t come from playing jokes.”
In the first place, being a mage itself is a title given only to wizards of 4th tier or higher.
It wouldn’t be strange to say that by the time you reached the 6th rank, you were almost the best in the elemental field you chose as your major.
It didn’t take long to pick up the ears of grain that had fallen on the ground because there were so many residents who had gathered to see the magic.
The villagers each brought an armful of ears of grain and gathered them in one place.
When the rough tidying up was over, Violet, who had led the villagers by example on behalf of the village chief, who was unable to move, asked while wiping the sweat from her forehead.
“Then, Mage, what should we do now?”
“Now everyone can rest. I’ll take care of the rest.”
I said that and urged the residents to stay away.
Then, perhaps realizing that I was going to use magic again, the villagers happily returned to their seats.
I stretched my arms forward.
Controlling fluids with mana was my specialty.
The wind flowing in the air slowly begins to wrap around the ears of wheat.
When the transparent sphere thus created completely blocks the outside from the inside, it is time to create turbulence within the wall.
At first, it was only a weak wind, but it began to create a strong gust by intertwining with the wind blowing from another direction.
In this way, several gusts of wind gathered and became a whirlwind, and the whirlwind soon became a small storm.
Isaac’s mountain, trapped inside the sphere, began to spin furiously as if it had been put into a washing machine.
The resulting centrifugal force caused the whole grains to separate from the ears.
After maintaining the storm inside the sphere for a long time, I confirmed that the whole wheat spinning inside was completely separated into chaff and wheat grains, and brought a large sack.
As soon as the supply of magical power was cut off, the sphere of wind disappeared, and only the chaff was left on the bottom of the rain water.
The residents of the village looked at it blankly with their mouths open, and belatedly began to applaud at the sight of everything being resolved without having to take it to the mill.
‘Well. It’s simple.’
As I raised my nose in strange pride, Vanessa, who was watching all of this from behind, muttered incredulously.
“I should have learned magic too.”
***
After that, the same process as before was repeated.
“Iljin Gwangpung! Iljin Gwangpung! Iljin Gwangpung!”
Instead of cutting off the stems one by one with a scythe, I cut them in chunks at once with powerful magic-
‘I’ll separate rice from rice!’
The ears of wheat gathered by the residents and picked up from the fields were threshed and milled with a washing machine magic (tentative name) devised on the spot.
By joining forces with the residents and working in perfect order, we were able to harvest the entire 10,000 pyeong of land in less than 3 hours since we started working.
If I pushed myself a little, I could have finished it all within today, but I was having a hard time due to my magic attribute depletion and the residents seemed to be running out of stamina, so I decided to stop for today.
The sacks full of wheat grains were loaded onto a wagon pulled from the village.
In this case, a large bicorn came in handy.
Because they have much better stamina than normal horses, they walk briskly no matter how much luggage is loaded on them.
Bicorns were especially popular with young people because of their handsome appearance, and because of their strong taste, the bicorn started a fight and withdrew when children or girls approached, but when surrounded by village women, it was gently stroked as usual.
As I was looking at it from a distance, a little boy called Roto, whom I saw at the entrance of the village yesterday, came up to me and asked.
“Wizard! What’s that horse’s name?”
“Name?”
I lifted my head slightly and looked at the bicorn.
A bicorn is a bicorn.
I didn’t have a hobby of attaching nicknames to rides.
However, I couldn’t break the innocence of a pure child, so I gently stroked Lotto’s head and told him roughly what came to mind.
“That guy likes secondhand so you can call him secondhand country.”
“Wow! Used country!”
***
After the first day’s harvest, Camilla and I returned to the village chief’s house.
It was because he decided to stay here for a while until the farming work was over.
Vanessa, the head of the Demon King’s bodyguard, said she could not leave him for a long time, and returned to the Demon King’s Castle first.
Thanks to that, Camilla and I were left alone, but since we had already stayed overnight, it wasn’t too awkward to stay at someone else’s house.
“How about the village chief?”
“If it was my father, he would finish his meal first and then go into his room.”
Although the menu has become relatively simple compared to yesterday, the table filled with delicious home-cooked meals was still satisfactory.
Violet’s food skills are top notch.
I’ve been to places with the hero, but if it’s this good, it’s probably one of the best home-cooked meals I’ve ever eaten.
Admiring the taste of her vegetable stew, I praised her wholeheartedly.
“Violet’s husband would be great. She can eat such good food every day.”
Then Violet shook her head, blushing in her shyness.
“Oh, no. It’s already been half a year since I haven’t seen my husband’s face. Father doesn’t have an appetite and eats only what he eats, but the magician ate it so deliciously that I’m proud from the point of view of making it.”
In that way, they continue their meal happily while sharing good words hahahoho.
“…I really enjoyed the meal.”
Then, like yesterday, even though she had just started her meal, Camilla wiped her mouth with a napkin and rose from her seat first.
As she entered her room first, her Violet cupped her cheeks with her hands, and she said worriedly.
“Does Camilla not like my food?”
I waved my hand at such Violet.
“Don’t worry. Objectively, her wife’s food is very good. Rather, if there’s a problem, she’s with herself.”
“Yeah? What is that?”
“It’s probably a constitutional problem.”
I said that and shrugged her shoulders, and Violet was ah… And let out a light exclamation.
It is a well-known story that succubuses mainly feed on the affections of men.
But yesterday and today, I had never seen Camilla meet a man separately.
She is also a chaste virgin certified by Vicon in the first place.
Anyway, why don’t we keep talking about this when the person in question isn’t there, so I turned the topic of conversation to something else.
Fortunately, Violet also agreed well.
Perhaps, if Violet had a normal human appearance, she would have been slightly seduced by the attributes of a caring married woman.
After the meal, just the two of us, I entered the room saying I would sleep first.
I heard that the room was used by Violet’s son who joined the military, so I don’t know if that’s why, but I didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable using it.
Since the chief is a fox beast and Violet is also a fox beast, her husband and children are probably fox beasts as well.
I thanked her son, whom I had never seen before, and took off the green robe I had been wearing all day.
Phut! Phut!
Roughly brush off the dust on the surface with the palm of your hand, and hang it on his coat hanger to avoid wrinkles.
I don’t know anything else, but I always thoroughly managed the robe, which was no different from a wizard’s conquest.
It was when I was about to lie down on the bed feeling much more at ease.
Smart-
A knock on the door suddenly stopped all activity.
“Are you sleeping already?”
It was Violet’s voice that came from outside the door, putting her nervousness to shame.
I opened the door slightly to see what was going on.
“No, what are you doing…”
What?
Violet, standing in front of the door, was holding a wine bottle and a plate of simple snacks.
Actually, this much wasn’t surprising, but what really surprised me was that she had the appearance of a half-man, half-beast that she was.
While normally taking the form of a perfect beastman with a purple tail, he suddenly took on a human form on a whim.
Except for the ears and tail, they are no different from humans.
She waved the wine bottle in her right hand, and she sulked.
“Would you like a drink if you don’t mind? It’s probably not suitable for drinking alone.”
I stared intently at Violet’s face to try to understand what she meant when she said that in a tone that wasn’t different from usual.
A beautiful woman with well-groomed features, like a fox beast, with slightly raised eyebrows and a charming point around her mouth.
She innocently blinked her eyes as if she had no interest in anything other than drinking.
Seeing that disgusting appearance, I smiled and opened the door.
“For that reason, there’s no reason to refuse. Come in.”
“Oh, excuse me then.”
“But is the soundproofing here good?”
“Originally, my father is a bit of a dark sleeper.”
Clap-
I locked her door after she entered her room.
It wouldn’t be bad to be possessed by a fox sometimes.
