The Another World Grimoire

Chapter 2.4: Towards Chloe Village (2)

A magic circle surrounded Frostle along with his increasingly desperate position. However, Frostle had not given up. He then pulled out his knife which he had stored behind his waist.

“I still haven't lost!” said it.

A magic circle suddenly appeared before him. He inserted the knife into the magic circle, then pulled it back. However, the sharp object was no longer a knife. Rather, the blade of the blade turned bluish radiant and became longer—like a sword.

“How can it?” Hizashi astonishment.

The luminous blade the greater the aura. Frostle swung the blade and destroyed all of Hizashi's magic circles.

Frostle then laughed. “Looks like I'll win, huh?”

Frostle accelerated his movements with the Acceleration skill. In a short time, he managed to get close to Hizashi who was trying to retreat from his previous position.

“Death!”

Frostle swung his sword at Hizashi.

Unfortunately for Frostle. Hizashi is not an amateur. He had conquered monsters whose level was above him. Hizashi easily dodged Frostle's attack.

“Sial! She can dodge?” Frostle couldn't believe it.

He strengthened the position of his legs and changed the direction of his attack quickly towards Hizashi in the hope that this time he could hit it. Still, Hizashi was still able to dodge his attacks. He changed the direction of his attacks quickly many times. Unfortunately, all his efforts were in vain. Hizashi still remained superior in dodging Frostle's attacks.

Actually, what Hizashi does is not something that he directly mastered. “Predicted” is the expertise of every Book Magus in adventure. Only, the skill will disappear if the user himself is not sure what the skill shows.

“So here?” hizashi mocked Frostle after a sell-off and a ditch. “Then, it's my turn.”

The Hizashi Magic Book then opened and glowed. Hizashi placed his right palm on the open book. His hand then gave off a magical aura. He then raised his hand and opened his palm.

An unexpected thing happened. The lands around Hizashi suddenly lifted and formed a huge rock in the sky. The ball of rocks then absorbs heat from the environment and gives off a very large and hot burning fire. Everyone there was shocked, and Frostle was no exception.

“What is it..?”

“A Level A Magic? Just be right!” Frostle rampaging. “How can you do it?”

“Not your business. But, if you want to know this, I'll tell you a glimpse. I shook the ground and gathered the rocks above my head, then made it absorb the geothermal heat and produce fire, he said. Obviously, this magic is similar to Rock Flare, but this is not Rock Flare. Magic that is my own making. I named it Metra. Meteor Terra.”

Frostle felt that he could no longer surpass Hizashi. Without a second thought, he directly stuck the knife into the ground, removing its magic effects, then surrendered to Hizashi.

“Looks like I lost. I gave up,” he said slowly even though he himself refused to admit his defeat. Seen from the look of his face that is not earnest.

Hizashi then magically removed the burning rock ball with a flash. Rhea also caught up with him, then the two of them spoke face to face with Frostle.

“We are just adventurers coming for the Quest. Nothing to do with Monster’s Domain.”

Frostle's surprised. Face changed. “So, you guys are going to help us? Forgive us for our impoliteness!” Frostle bowed with guilt.

“It's okay, kok.” said Rhea. He put his sword back into the sheath.

Hizashi turned his gaze, observing around. “Actually, what happened here?” ask Hizashi. “I see all this way very rarely monsters and then tares. Usually, this kind of terrain is very profitable to find prey, especially the wild type.”

“On that, Baron of Chloe ordered that all animals here be evacuated from the wild. They are placed in the forest we have prepared.”

Hizashi and Rhea are confused. “For what?” Hizashi asked.

“Of course to avoid the adventurers in action in Monster’s Domain,” Frostle replied.

Monster’s Domain is indeed an event that confers to adventurers with the territory of a noble whose place will be used as a gathering place for monsters. When an adventurer managed to overcome all the monsters that were there, he would be granted the right to rule in that land.

“I understand,” says Hizashi. “To prevent unrighteous people from ruling over this land. You guys are really smart. But, what about the Quest we received?”

“For Quest, better come with us first.” Frostle helped his subordinates to get back up. “Baron from Chloe was the one who submitted this Quest to the Adventurers Guild. We better talk to him directly. Tonight, stay in our village.”
