by fnovelpiaWizard Hicks doubted his ears.
“Stop it all.”
Stop everything.
Is this something that could come out of the mouth of one of the department heads currently leading the territory?
Even though I made a lot of money with soap, this is how you treat wizards-!!
“Miss Elisa. You have to take responsibility, right?”
Just look at that sight of Count Soryu patting his wife Elisa on the shoulder!
It was an impossible outrage.
The moment when Hicks, intoxicated by youthful energy, was about to say something.
His master grabbed his shoulder. Even though he was his master, he was only a second-circle magician who could only make a ladleful of water.
“Hmm. Is that so? That’s good.”
“Master?”
“Okay, everyone, go back~!”
The wizards all smiled at the incomprehensible words of their master and began to leave the building one by one, following Alpha’s words.
“Master! Is it okay for us, as wizards, to be insulted like this and leave like this?”
“Disciple, remember what our purpose was.”
“… Are you quitting your job?”
“That’s right! Why would you raise your voice and cause trouble when you’ve achieved your goal? Besides, wizards deserve to be treated well. But that’s because our wizards are different from ordinary people.”
Hicks opened his mouth after thinking deeply about his teacher’s words before he finished speaking.
“I see. If we talk to Alpha like we would at the market, we can look like normal people.”
“That’s right!”
The conversations between circle 1-2 magicians, who could be said to have been initiated into magic at best, were so bizarre that if someone who didn’t know saw them, they might think they were talking to a great magician and his apprentice.
“The insults we received can be returned later. After all, he will need us and come looking for us again. Then, we can return the insult.”
“I see!”
Hicks, thinking of his master as his teacher, once again engraved the greatness of the wizards in his mind.
You shouldn’t act like other people.
They are those who pursue the mystical discipline of magic.
It’s a way of dealing with insults that is different from others.
“Then everyone, let’s go.”
The wizards returned proudly to their homes. They were not driven out of the territory just because they were driven out by Alpha.
Even though they didn’t work, they were given a large sum of 20 silver every day as a maintenance allowance.
This was the wizard!
Even if they had low achievements and were not working, each territory treated them well. It was inevitable that when high-ranking wizards visited a territory, they would check how low-ranking wizards were treated.
And when high-ranking wizards saw that lower-ranking wizards were not treated well enough, they often refused to work in that territory.
It was natural. If those who had studied the same subject as him were not treated properly(?) simply because they had low achievements and did not work, how would he, a high-ranking magician, be treated?
Even this kind of behavior was encouraged in the Magic Tower. It was part of a welfare policy for lower-level magicians who were not treated well even in the Magic Tower.
Anyway, thanks to that, the wizards suddenly lost their jobs, but they didn’t have to worry about money.
The wizards returned home, not suspecting that Alpha would soon be on his knees begging them for better treatment and less work.
How much do I know about magic, which is truly the domain of geniuses!!
*
“Clean.”
After chasing away all the wizards.
I was using magic on behalf of the wizards.
The thing that interested me the most after coming to this world was magic. After studying the culture and customs here, what I learned was magic.
Of course, since I don’t have a proper magic book, my current level is only around 2nd circle. If I had enough time to study magic, would it be possible to reach 9th circle, which only dragons have achieved, through self-study…?
I don’t know. Magic is such an obscure subject.
Even I, an alpha male, have a hard time learning 3rd circle magic without a proper magic book.
Well, it would be impossible for someone to learn all the knowledge that the people of this world have accumulated over thousands of years so quickly through self-study.
This would be natural, considering that even alpha males initially denied the existence of bacteria.
After all, the fastest way to gain knowledge is to learn from someone rather than to learn it on your own.
“Shit!”
“Clean.”
I feel like the mana is draining from my body along with the ignition. Is it because there are dozens of water jugs placed in front of me?
A reasonable amount of mana is drained from the water, and it begins to purify.
’40 people doing this and making 1 gold a day?’
I couldn’t help but frown when I saw how much mana it took to use clean magic.
“Magic Stone.”
“Yes!”
Elisha, realizing that she had done something wrong, immediately puts the magic stone in my hand.
hearthstone.
If I had this stone that contained mana that came from hunting monsters, I could use magic using the mana in this magic stone instead of the mana in my body.
That is, up until now, wizards have been using this magic stone instead of their own mana to cast magic.
From my tests just now, it’s clear that without the magic stone, none of them would have been able to purify even one of these water jugs.
The magic stone is consumed as magic stone, but it also slows down the processing of work.
Plus, a daily wage befitting a high-level employee…!!
How inefficient!
“Elisa. Should I be punished?”
“Ugh… Yeshet❤︎”
This needed punishment.
It was definitely Elisa who requested such drastic treatment for the wizards. She had to take responsibility for this situation.
“Clean.”
I threw the magic stone back into the corner and used my mana to activate the magic. With this amount of mana consumed, I didn’t have to worry about running out even if I used magic all day.
“Wow! Amazing! The wizards before! They could only finish one barrel! Every day, the number of barrels filled with water increases!”
I think your name was Jean…?
I really liked how every time I used magic, he would praise me as if he was amazed and diligently carry a few water jugs.
Moreover, he was over 2 meters tall, perhaps because of his natural physique, and although he probably didn’t eat properly, he had muscles all over his body and seemed never to get tired.
“Did you hear? I treated you like you said. If you used magic dozens of times at a time, it would have ended quickly, but I was saying, “Time, month, month.””
“Sorry, sorry.”
For your information, Erica had left for a moment to check if the upstairs work was being done properly by filtering out the waste together with Ertia.
That means, no matter how much I yearn for Elisha here, there will be no problem!
I saw a few people carrying water jugs… but who would believe them if they said so?
Elisha will immediately deny that she was bullied by me.
“What are you doing? Can’t you see it’s piled up? You should use your magic quickly too.”
In terms of just the amount of mana, Elisa has more mana than me.
That means, even if she purifies water all day like me, she doesn’t have to worry about running out of mana.
“Yes!”
Elisa and I cast a clean spell on the piled up water jugs to create several jugs of clean water.
The water that has been purified in this way is then sold again.
If there is one downside to the Viken Territory, it would be that it is quite difficult to obtain water.
To be exact, it is difficult for Viken City, where there is a permanent residence, to obtain water.
The Bikken Territory clearly had a river with enough water to support farming.
But that river is quite far from Bikkensi. Anyone who tries to fetch water from there will surely get exhausted.
Because of this, it was so common for merchants to sell water in Bikensi that there was even a joke that they were taxing water.
Although there were wells here and there, they were not enough for the number of people living there. And recently, as word began to spread that washing one’s body with soap was effective against the Black Death, the shortage became even worse.
That’s why I’m here working my magic now.
Because the sewage treatment plant was a really important facility.
The current income from this business is more than the amount of tax paid by merchants after selling water. Citizens can get clean water at a low price, so it is killing two birds with one stone.
If there is a problem with sewage treatment in this situation, water prices will immediately start to skyrocket.
No matter how precious money is, it is not more precious than escaping from the deadly disease called the Black Death.
If that happens, people will start washing again with the same water they washed in, and the disease may spread again.
To prevent that situation, I had no choice but to do my best.
But that doesn’t mean I can stay here forever.
Since modern medicine treatment was not possible, it was natural that wizards would be needed.
But I didn’t want to rehire those same bastards I had just kicked out.
‘Create a wizard.’
After a day’s work.
I called Helen, Elisa, and Ertia.
Helen and Elisa were so educated in magic that they could be called sorcerers, and Ertia… was a tough girl, but she could read and write.
The basic writing is taught by Ertia, and magic is taught by Helen and Elisa.
This was the basic outline.
“Did you understand?”
“Yes…❤︎”
Helen said with a look of ecstasy on her face, cum dripping from her nose.
I gave enough to three people, so I’m sure they’ll do well.
