by fnovelpia“I am an Indian witch. Even if it’s not enough, you can control the future.”
These are words that make you doubt your ears.
An Indian witch.
Controlling the future?
“Wow! Hwansu is so cute when he’s surprised.”
My eyes widened slightly, but Isabelle made a fuss about how cute I was.
Weightless appearance.
I have no idea if what I just said is true.
Is this an intentional attitude?
So that it’s hard to guess.
Gulp, gulp~
“Kya~ Beautiful moonlight. Burning alcohol. Plus the cute Hwansu. I love it so much~”
… On the outside, she is a drunk woman with no context.
So, what is a witch?
Those who are born with exceptional magical powers that only appear among women. Most people know it that way, but it is all just speculation.
okay.
It’s a legend.
Witches almost disappeared from the continent due to witch hunts.
But an Indian witch?
It’s hard to get a feel for it.
Therefore, I asked directly.
[What does Indian witch mean?]
“Hmm~ She is a witch who can predict the future and run away to hold on to her life.”
[escape?]
“It’s okay now, but witch hunts were active a hundred years ago. Many of my colleagues died at that time. It’s still clear before my eyes.”
A hundred years ago… .
Has this guy lived for over a hundred years, contrary to his appearance?
[You’re so good at talking about things like that. Do you mind if your identity is known?]
“I’m saying this because it’s Hwansu. I have a prediction that Mr. Hwansu will not abandon me and will take good care of me.”
[…] Is it accurate?]
“About 30% for this one?”
This is a completely unreliable prophecy.
but… There is no reason to reject a 7-star wizard, nor is there any reason to be hostile to him in the first place.
If you become an ally, it will be of great help.
[Is there probability in prophecy?]
“That’s not true, but I’m guessing roughly. Some things feel more certain and that’s how it ended up like this.”
[It’s done? Was it different originally?]
“Hmm~ I don’t really want to think about this.”
[…] So what kind of race are witches?]
“That’s a secret too. To tell you everything, I still don’t trust Mr. Hwansu.”
After all, you’re not telling me everything.
Well, this guy has already told a secret that would be dangerous if it became known that he was a witch. You can’t just ask for information.
In that case, I have no choice but to use the skill.
[I need to hear the answer now.]
“Huh? You’re not trying to threaten me, Mr. Hwansu, are you? I didn’t feel that way… .”
Past life.
Tiring!!
◎︎ Use the Reincarnation String on Isabelle.
◎︎ … The string of past life is broken.
◎︎ The target’s mental defense mechanism is activated.
◎︎ It will not be released unless you destroy the moon.
What is it?
The skill has been cancelled.
“Gasp!? Mr. Hwansu. What did you just try to do to me? Something was creepy.”
[…] … Witches are very difficult beings.]
“Huh?”
witch.
If you think about it, there was an academic theory like this.
They say they consider the moon to be their mother.
The moon takes care of them.
therefore… .
There is a moon god.
It is understandable if a witch is protected by such a being.
In terms of the tower, it has the divine protection. This is why I cannot use the Reincarnation String on Rauf.
It’s unfortunate, but I guess I’ll have to take a step back.
The mere fact that she is an Indian witch and can predict the future is great information. To some extent, this is like giving up his life for me, a person I’ve never met before.
If I had that kind of power, would I be able to reveal this power to someone?
at all.
That guy said it out loud.
For my trust.
… In that case, you can trust it a little bit.
◎︎ Use hand drawing.
◎︎ Use growth control.
Tap.
“Oh! Mr. Hwansu became Mr. Suin?”
“You told me an important secret, so I’m telling it to you too.”
“It’s Hwansu’s secret, right? I’ll keep it a secret. Because if Mr. Hwansu gets angry and tells my secret to people around me, I will be in more danger.”
The guy said that and drank the bottle again.
Gulp.
The blush is rising slightly.
“… You really like alcohol.”
“Because it’s the water of my life~”
Gulp, gulp.
“Kiya~ Mr. Hwansu, can you have a drink too?”
Boom!~
The guy summoned a bottle of alcohol with magic. It seemed like he had created his own sub-space to store alcohol separately.
“Give it to me.”
“Mr. Hwansu drinks. Is this precious?”
I received the bottle and drank it down.
A burning sensation travels down the esophagus.
A drink I haven’t had much of since my days as a mercenary. It’s not bad since it’s been a while since I ate it.
“Good~ Since Hwansu treats me well, I’ll tell you another important story.”
“What is it?”
“This Kingdom of Leonis will be destroyed.”
“Is it a prophecy?”
“My prophecy has a zero hit rate! It’s low, but I’m starting to feel confident about this one. Because there is Hwansu in front of me.”
“What does it mean?”
“I feel it well because Mr. Hwansu is the subject of the prophecy. Many kingdoms fall… Maybe a new fantastic country will appear and change drastically? Hmm~ The more I look at Hwansu, the more he seems to be more than I expected?”
“It’s a pointless story. Originally, the plan was to destroy all the places that were offensive.”
“Wow~ How strong is Hwansu? There are few people in Edelin’s history who could destroy a country alone. The most famous one was the first hero?”
“Are there any other prophecies?”
“Ah! Rather than a prophecy… Mr. Hwansu, you like the top. Or do you like this place?”
“The tower is a disgusting place.”
“You say you like this place. Hehe.”
“What do you want to say?”
“As I said before, I think the world will change significantly. Thanks to Mr. Hwansu. perhaps… .”
“Maybe?… ”
“The world might be destroyed? Wow, it’s a destruction ending.”
“… Is it because of me?”
“Mollya~ I don’t know because there are so many branches visible. There are too many endings for Mr. Hwansu, and my prophecy will no longer be perfect.”
“It’s nonsense.”
“Almost like that! So I guess I should have a drink~”
The drunk guy started to fuss.
It feels like I’m intentionally pretending to be drunk.
I guess he’s trying to change his mind.
There was a lot of information I gained, but it was all uncertain and difficult to guess. It’s better than not knowing, but I can’t help but feel uneasy.
‘I guess I’ll have to wait and see.’
I have a lot of doubts about this guy, but I plan to become friends with him first.
If a guy like this had a crush on Venus, that alone would be a huge benefit. It doesn’t seem like there are any bad intentions, so it will be a big help.
“… Drink in moderation. I’ll just go now.”
“Hwansu, you are going for a very difficult training.”
“Do you see something like that?”
“I can see the near future quite well. I’m fighting Mr. Skull. Isn’t it difficult to train so intensely?~”
“Can’t you see anything else?”
“Unfortunately, my foresight is arbitrary, so I cannot know everything. If it was something you wanted to see, how omnipotent you must have been.”
“… Then, let’s go practice.
“Hehe. I’d like to take a look, but I’ll have to be satisfied with talking to Mr. Hwansu today.”
I turned around.
However, rather than jumping off the roof like usual, he re-entered the Venus building.
*
Fiona’s room on the 4th floor.
Before going for training, I stopped by here for a moment to use my past life skills.
Although we were unable to confirm Isabelle, we may be able to find out Isabelle’s identity to some extent by checking her student, Fiona.
Because it seemed like he cared for it quite a bit.
I’m sure you can catch a glimpse of the secret.
Although he’s a friendly guy, I can’t help but check it out of curiosity.
Indian witch.
What kind of person was she in her past life?
Sreuk~
Break into the room by moving the shadow.
Fiona can be seen sleeping soundly.
To get a glimpse of the guy’s past life, I got close and used a skill.
but.
Tiring~
◎︎ Connect the past life string to Fiona.
◎︎ … The string of past life is broken.
◎︎ The target’s mental defense equipment is activated.
◎︎ It will not be released unless you destroy the moon.
This time, the skill bounced.
… Why didn’t I guess? If the teacher is a witch, the student can also be a witch.
In other words, Fiona was a witch.
Although they couldn’t confirm the past lives of the two using past life strings, they found out that Fiona was also a witch.
It’s not like there’s no income.
‘Should I be satisfied with this for now?’
I turned around.
To train with Lauf again-
“… Mother.”
Suddenly, Fiona’s mutterings are heard.
Am I having a nightmare?
The expression looks painful.
What kind of story might it have… .
It’s frustrating because I don’t know my past life. Why is that guy making that expression?
It’s annoying.
The same emotions I felt towards my students, I now feel them towards others as well.
But I didn’t push that feeling away.
A guy who follows his disciple.
If you can help, it’s right to help.
Because I have changed.
Sigh~
He touched Fiona’s forehead.
‘happiness. ‘Do it.’
ᚦᛁᛅᚾᚴᚢᛒ.
A magic that usually has no effect.
However, it is a small and simple magic that induces good dreams when you sleep.
In order to somehow motivate him during his emotionless days as a lich, he cast a spell on him that he learned and used to hypnotize him.
Pee~
Steady breathing.
The painful expression disappears.
If you can cooperate, help. Even if it’s something small like this… .
My head hurts.
I turned around again and left the room.
I met Rauf before the morning sun and exchanged swords fiercely.
*
Today too, everyday life repeats itself.
Training, training, training.
A daily life filled with nothing but training.
However, Isabelle and Fiona joined the warrior corps and trained together, and thanks to this, Ronica and Rowen also learned how to deal with magic.
After one run, the sun quickly sets, and after evening training, the disciple falls asleep.
Afterwards, early morning training.
When I went out to teach Rowen and Erica, Rowen brought me some news.
“I have found out information about Medis.”
Information from Medis.
According to what he researched, it is like this.
Medis hid alone in a remote area and devoted himself to training, but it is said that knights who hid their skills nearby were constantly guarding them, so they could not approach them.
Unfortunately, that is the limit of our current information power.
I was satisfied and moved on.
This alone is worthy of praise.
Because Venus is still small.
Start training again.
*
Another week passed.
It’s already been a month since school closed.
and… .
“Woman, I have enlisted the weapons here.”
A very frightened warlock named Regnet came to me during early morning training.
A huge ship carried on its back.
When it was opened, full plate armor was revealed.
Rauf’s armor is complete.
Erica greeted him warmly.
“W~ You were on time. Thanks to you, I was able to protect my left arm.”
“… … … .”
“Do you feel like living these days? They send me money and have me make weapons. I’m dying here.”
“… Well, that… … .”
The warlock was embarrassed and broke into a cold sweat. Like a person about to get hit.
“Stop and check the weapon.”
I stopped Erica and took out the full body armor from the box.
It’s lighter than it looks because of the weight reduction.
“Is this my armor?”
Rauf also showed interest and approached.
When I handed him the armor, he looked at it against his frame and his eyes glowed with satisfaction.
“Good workmanship. It’s less sturdy than the previous armor, but it’ll be easier to move around.”
“The most important thing is magic. Try it on and listen to the face of the helmet. According to the request, it would have been designed so that the facial part could be tucked behind the head.”
“Sure.”
Grumble.
Crash.
The guy wore armor. That alone covered his entire body, making him look like a knight.
Plus, the most important thing.
chuck.
When I flipped back the face shield, the face of an ordinary-looking middle-aged man appeared.
“How it looks.”
“ho. That sounds plausible. I don’t mind going into the city as is.”
“But is there a place to stay?”
“Live in that guy’s house.”
“What!?”
I pointed to Erica.
Anyway, that guy’s house was provided by Rowen, and in a month it will be bankrupt. So it would be okay to leave it to Rauf.
“At the same time, Lionel. You too, go to that house together. The three of us can train together when I’m not around.”
“… I understand.”
Lionel, who was quiet nearby, frowned. It was a clear expression of disapproval, but I did not reject it because I knew my subject.
Of course, it wasn’t Erica.
“You crazy bastards. Are you really trying to invade a place where a lady lives alone like this?”
“Then ask Rowen for a favor. If you do a good job, I might give you another house.”
“… oh? Is there such a way?”
“Can you persuade?”
“I don’t know. I have to persuade him well.”
“… … Take care of that yourself. And a warlock. You go back now. Next time I have something to make, I will order again.”
“I understand. Well, goodbye then!”
The warlock immediately turned around and disappeared from the spot along with black smoke.
It was a run with all his might.
Even “ practice.”
Today, after training, we all entered the city together. Naturally, the residents didn’t notice Rauf’s identity when they saw him. All they did was give him a look and say, “Some driver has come in.”
“Is it here?”
We soon arrived at Erica’s residence.
Less than an hour away from Venus. It is also near an organization building called Avitel in the old slum.
Rauf and Lionel moved in there.
now… .
From time to time, you may be able to feel the red glow of Venus’ eyes.

“… Have you found out anything?”
Heavy voice.
A frustrated voice.
Duke of Avalon.
He asked Adjutant Aderic, who entered the office, about news about Ronica.
“I’m not sure yet, but I was able to find the circumstances that Count Hysterion is detaining the Shadow Knights.”
“Useless things. If I had thought about it, I should have reported it when I saw the count and made my move. You attack it arbitrarily and get robbed like this?”
The Duke expressed his anger.
It’s already been a month since I ordered Ronika’s kidnapping.
Absurdly, so many high-quality personnel were captured and captured in enemy territory.
I couldn’t understand.
With what power do they have?
Even though the Knights of Hysterion existed, this one was much stronger. But not only were they not dead, but they were all captured.
Hysterion even began to put pressure on the business involved in the Ministry with his enormous financial resources.
A very difficult situation.
Maybe there was some hidden power?
Unfortunately, we investigated, but as Deputy Arthurik said, we found nothing.
Am embarrassed.
Even if we acknowledge his wealth, his military power is at this level.
perhaps… Like the Labyrinth and Warlock incidents, it may have unexpected powers.
At first glance, the puzzle fits together.
‘If you think about it, there was a successor to the first warrior.’
Top secret information spread to the royal family.
There is a successor to the talent of the first warrior.
“Maybe it’s him.”
“Yes?… .”
“Adderic. Send an assassin.”
“If you are an assassin, are you trying to kill Hysterion?”
“No, that’s difficult. Because I’m always surrounded by knights. Instead, that cadet named Ronika is different. Kill him.”
“Is there any good in killing that child?
“It doesn’t matter whether I die or not. If you kill it, it will be a good warning to Hysterion, and if you don’t kill it, it will become clear that there is something to that child.”
“… yes. I will send a capable assassin.”
Adjutant Atherick left the office.
To order the assassination of Ronica.
