Red Yarn Swordsman

Farewell

It was late in the evening when we successfully completed our first mission. After we gathered the materials on request from the guide, we took a break for the night. It's not a good idea to walk without lighting at night. Not to mention there are still magical animals that roam at night. If I'm alone it won't matter, while there's Widi who hasn't recovered her memory. According to the adventurer guidebook, the majority of magical animals are afraid of fire except magical animals that have the element of fire. Fortunately, this region does not have magical animals with fire elements so it is still classified as a safe area.

I was looking for fish in a river not far from the cave, while Widi was in charge of collecting firewood around the cave. For the matter of catching fish I have no trouble at all, just a moment can get quite a lot. My plan after this I will help Widi find firewood if I have time.

When I returned to the deserted cave. There was only a pile of firewood lying on the ground but Widi was not there. Maybe he's still looking for firewood, I thought. I immediately put down the catch and rushed out of the cave. It's weird, we're just two here.

I saw some footprints and a horse. This is a flock of people who just passed through this area and headed in the opposite direction of the river. Maybe just passers-by, I thought.

As I moved away from that place I saw pieces of cloth similar to Widi's clothes. Widi is in danger. But there's no trace of fighting here at all.

Hold still.

"Look at!" I used the power of God's borrowed eyes. A power given by the Creator.

Surely my guess. These footprints are new, there's no sign of violence or fighting around here and Widi's gone nowhere.

With these eyes I can see vaguely what happened in the past on condition that I have to touch directly with the object in question.

I saw two men swiftly drugging Widi and another waiting behind the bush. Then they went east with Widi. After that a group of people came from behind the bush and headed east as well. The group of people is waiting for the action of the first group to be completed and will move in case something unexpected happens. A good strategy.

"At least I've found one clue. Their emblems are the same" I said.

It was getting darker as I walked east. I won't be in a hurry, because they will also stop resting at night, likely like that. But nevertheless...

"Huh, shit" upatku.

They entered a densely populated settlement. It seems like this is a different area to the first area I lived in. This is not an ordinary village, after I entered this little-looking settlement a fact, it's a city. The advanced city.

The city is under the forest. Like a circular abyss and its area is wide. The city was surrounded by cliffs and there was still a large defensive wall.

The city is very tightly guarded. Examination of sebeum entering snaking up to hundreds of meters. According to the people here I asked, there are only two doors here, the entrance and exit. The city government carries out this system in order to minimize acts of crime such as theft or other crimes. The walls surrounding this city were also cast with extremely powerful gravitational magic spells that high-level magicians could not pass through easily.

I also marched with those who wanted to enter the city. The people here are mostly young men and parents who he says want to send their children to this safe city. Aman is the nickname of this city, not without reason if the city with tight security like this.

It took me a long time to check. As far as I can see those passing through this city will be given a bracelet, no matter what its usefulness is but all who enter are given the bracelet.

"Next" said the inspectors.

When it was my turn the officer was watching me closely from top to bottom.

"He was just an ordinary person who had no magic aura at all" said another officer.

"What was your purpose in coming here?" ask officer.

"Eh, that" I thought for a moment.

"I want to be a witch, sir" I said firmly.

There was no strange reaction from them. They just laughed so hard that their tears came.

"I tell you something" he whispered before me.

"Your magic aura is non-existent, you will be rejected by the academy's testing team" he said disparagingly.

"So I can't come in?" tanyaku plain.

"It's obvious, stupid. Going home and crying out loud. Tell your mother, if she's willing to be my wife, I'll grant your request. Whatever it is"

This guy is so spiteful, it feels like I drew my sword and cut his neck.

"But I don't have parents, sir" I said innocently. (sometimes it's necessary when facing a dowry like this)

"Don't talk much. Go there" his tone began to rise.

One side I want to barge in and break his neck. One side I have to be patient to get a clue in there. Who knows how useful.

"Hey, hey. Don't be rude to a young man with a strong will" said one from behind me.

"Oh, chief Sen. Respect chairman Sen"

The man was short-bodied, skinny and had a thick mustache. He is the head of Sen, the holder of power over this entrance gate. Rumor is she's a witch with mental abilities. One of the abilities of the mind magician can see one's good and bad intentions, it can even create illusions while fighting.

"Greetings" I bowed to pay my respects. He does have a strong authority.

"Haha. You're very attractive. What is your name" asked Chairman Sen.

"My name is Modo" I said.

"Modos. What's your marg name?"

I'm speechless. Long ago all I had was a grandfather who took care of me until I was a teenager, so I had no clan.

"That-that's.."

"Ah, it's okay. You can come with me. I will recommend you to the Har chief, he is the chairman in the magic academy of this city. You can join the attack-type magician. You got a strong physique, son"

All speechless. I am too.

"All right, come with me"

I just followed him walking. Along the way Chairman Sen praised my physical strength. Though I had suppressed my inner strength until even ordinary people considered me like an ordinary person who had no strength, but chairman Sen could feel I had a strong physical body. He's not a random person.

We stopped at a large academy. It is shaped like a castle in the dongen country. There are four towers here, each representing a different kind of magic. There are healers, defenses, long-range types, and the last is combat types. Maybe I'll be a fighter if I remember what Chairman Sen said.

"We've arrived"
