Chapter 526 – IF I Am Alone in Another World 12

“Hey, eat this. “This.”

“… “I already ate a lot.”

“Eat more! You know it’s not like the first time these days, right? Oh, let’s leave out the garlic. The last time I saw it, it smelled terrible. Eat the meat and the tail. Okay?”

Sayoung said so and laid out a lot of meat in front of Dojin. All of them were foods that strengthened one’s stamina, and thus had metaphorical meanings.

Do-jin, seeing the meat piled up in the bowl, whetted his appetite. The reason Sayoung acted like this was because she couldn’t help but realize her blatant meaning.

“Hey – Mr. Sayoung? Even the leader hates it. Please restrain yourself…”

“What? Why are you jealous?”

“I’m jealous, when did I do that?”

“If you’re jealous, say something. Tsk tsk. Just looking at it, it looks like it has been spinning a spider web for hundreds of years.”

“Well, I’m not that old!”

Orion, who was attacked by Sayoung, hit her table and stood up. There was a commotion, but other people’s attention was not focused.

Late in the evening, a bar full of adventurers. This is because that level of noise could not be contained even on the noise side.

However, Orion recognized that making a loud noise and raising his body was a very shameful act, so he cleared his throat and sat down again.

“What I want to say is, what are you going to do if something happens to the hunt while exploiting the leader like that?”

“There hasn’t been any problem so far.”

“From now on! There could be trouble!”

“What’s the problem with just hitting a little bit?” … Because I take care of everything,

Do you mind? Or what is it? Do you want to join in, you little bastard?”

Sayoung smiled sinisterly as she said that. Instead of circling her fingers, she also put her other hand in and out of the hole.

Orion, who saw the gesture, was scared and tried to scream again, while Sayoung, who realized that Do-jin had eaten all the meat, stood up and grabbed Do-jin’s wrist.

“If you’ve finished eating, let’s go. “I’m wet.”

“No, I haven’t eaten it all yet…”

“You’re saying you’re in a hurry? Ah. Orion, see you tomorrow?”

Watching Do-jin being dragged by Sa-young, Orion, who was left alone, made a bitter expression.

To her, only the three serving plates and glasses on the table proved that someone had been there. And there was no way the adventurers would leave the beautiful elf alone like that.

“What- Sister, did you get dumped? So what about us? I am confident that I will do well.”

“Okay, okay. Is he huge? I am of average size, but I am confident in my hand skills…”

“—Get out.”

Orion has dealt with such adventurers too many times. The deadly force flowing from her body flies towards the adventurers who tried to seduce her.

It is trained to be extremely sharp, so most adventurers would feel numb just by standing in front of it.

“Ah, ah- don’t be too angry.”

“I was going… I was going… Huh. “I’ll go now.”

From the mouths of the adventurers who stand up and disappear into the distance, small curses can be heard that cannot be heard except by the hearing of an elf.

“Fuck, this topic smells like a chicken coop…”

After hearing those words, Orion resisted the urge to immediately run over and beat up the two people and sighed.

Everyone was right. Sayoung’s words, those adventurers’ words.

‘I never thought I would feel that way toward a human.’

Elves look down on all races, including humans, beastmen, and others. Aren’t they a pathetic race of people who are not beautiful, age easily, and die simply by getting older?

It is impossible to love such lower races. An elf who loves humans can only be compared to a human who loves dogs or cats.

It was the same with Orion. She did not hate humans or other races, but she considered them inferior, and she thought she would never love such an inferior being. I don’t know if it’s something to keep as a pet…

However.

‘Something is different. Something… What is it?’

Dojin did not feel the same sense or instinct that aroused hatred toward the inferior races.

Although he could n’t understand, Orion observed Dojin’s strange feelings of her, and eventually feelings of love sprouted for him.

He became an elf who loved humans.

‘I don’t understand. Never like this… I’ve never had one in my life.’

The same is true in the case of projection.

Is there no way that Sayoung, a warrior of the steppes, would like Dojin just because he is strong?

There is something.

As if the world was whispering to him to love him.

Something unknown was protecting Dojin.

* * *

A gloomy laboratory.

One of the rooms in the Magic Tower filled with stuffy air, as if it hadn’t been ventilated for several days. It was surprising that no dust had accumulated.

The wizard, who was scribbling down papers and organizing research results in the laboratory, frowned when she saw a witch bursting in through the door.

“Rise-! Are you alive!?”

“… Kahuu. “I told you not to open it on your own.”

“Ah, then should we strengthen the barrier a little more? “It was completely wide open?”

Your barrier magic is poor – Rize frowned after hearing such a provocation. But he couldn’t argue.

Isn’t the witch in front of her a genius witch who, despite being the same age as her, was awarded the 5th rank in the hierarchy of her magic tower her, the Yellow Rank (黃色位), for her dazzling talent her?

Compared to Raije, who was just going back and forth between blue and green, it was truly a talent sent from heaven. In a way, it was natural for such a wizard to disparage my magic.

“… So? What’s going on? I’m busy. “The research has just been completed and is being organized.”

“Notice board! “Didn’t you see it?”

“What bulletin board?”

“Recruitment bulletin board on the first floor!”

“Why do I see things like that?”

“I knew that would be the case and I brought it!”

Kafuu said this and took out the notice posted on the first floor. The notice hidden between his chest opens up to reveal its contents.

[Job Recruitment]


『Dangerous journey, life not guaranteed, compensation not certain, success uncertain.

However.

Among those who read this, those who are interested in the truth of the world, please come to me.』

─The above job posting is guaranteed by the Adventurer’s Guild…

As a wizard who lives with his face buried in a book every day, Raize quickly scanned all the words written on the job offer notice and looked at Kafuu as if asking what this was.

She shrugged her shoulders and shouted, as if she didn’t understand this.

“A job advertisement written by people who want to see the end of the dungeon!”

“… It must be an absurd recruitment letter written by crazy people. It will go down within a few weeks, or even a few days.”

“It’s different this time! An advertisement written by such sloppy guys wouldn’t have been able to get posted on the bulletin board – but this time, it’s a recruitment letter notarized by the Adventurer’s Guild!”

Kafuu said this and pointed to the Adventurer’s Guild’s endorsement written at the bottom of the recruitment form. When she saw that, she sighed and nodded, saying she understood.

What does it matter who put up these ads, and whether they are endorsed or not? I am busy enough just writing my research diary right now. I’m so busy that I don’t even have time to sleep, so what’s the point of exploring dungeons…

However, Kafuu did not leave Raize alone.

“Are you interested too?”

“No… “Can you please stop leaving?”

“Okay! Then, I will apply under your name, so please take care of it!”

“… What? No, if you want to go that way, you can go, right?”

“I want to do that too, but it’s like a chimney… I’m busy with research… There are times when the older guys at the Magic Tower will object, asking what kind of dungeon exploration the Yellow Wi is doing.”

So, you go instead of me.

That was the reason Kafuu came to Raise.

At the same time, Rise’s hierarchy was level 3. Above blue. He was the perfect talent for this external recruitment.

However, Raije was not a race that unconditionally followed others because of their high authority.

“─I don’t like it.”

“Jebaal-! I’ll ask you this. Huh?”

“I told you I was busy. “I don’t have time to worry about trivial things like that.”

“—Isn’t this a trivial thing to do?”

As soon as those words came out of her Ka Huu mouth, La Now looked at her as if she was wondering what that meant. Kafuu then smiled brightly and took out a document from his breast pocket again.

“I researched this out of interest. The person who posted this job posting is an Eastern Continental named Dojin. But where did this person come from?”

“They say they are from the East Continent, so they must have come from the East Continent.”

“Surprisingly—there is no trace.”

“What, are you a smuggled immigrant?”

Then it’s something to report to security, not something to tell yourself, right? When Raize counters, Kafuu smiles.

“No. I’m not talking about those traces. This person—has no mana in his body.”

“… “What?”

“Even about two months ago, he suddenly appeared as if he had fallen into a dungeon. Of course, there are no traces of entering the country, and even if I try to find traces using magic, perhaps because I don’t have the mana, there are no traces.”

Who is Kahuu?

Paljunochopanambo. A yellow-ranked wizard ranked 5th in the rainbow-colored hierarchy.

The fact that she couldn’t find it means that it wasn’t her mistake, it really didn’t exist.

However, according to the common sense of magicians, there is no being in this world without magical power.

If there is someone without magical power, he—.

“… A person from another world.”

“Golden Correct Answer.”

“That person named Dojin is from another world. Is this it?”

“There is no confirmation. Heart disease is 90%.”

“Then it means it’s certain.”

Only then did Raize show interest in the notice brought by Kafuu. That’s because the field she is currently researching is related to the other world.

To be exact, it was a study on gods who suddenly disappeared several hundred years ago.

If Dojin is from another world, and we can find out how he fell here—it would also be possible to discover the other world where the gods are expected to have disappeared.

“—Okay. “I will do that.”

“Hmm, you say we’re the only Rize?”

“Instead, you do everything I’m writing now.”

“That’s a bit…” … It’s annoying.”

“Are you going to waste your time using this and then let other people steal it?”

“That can’t be possible…” …”

Leaving behind Kafuu, who was expressing his annoyance at being caught up in the disaster I had brought about, Raize stood up. Once a decision has been made, move immediately. That was her driving force that brought her to where she is today.

‘Go on an adventure… I don’t want it to be dirty.’

Of course, Raije, who only studied in his closet, had the perception that adventurers were messy, dirty, and mean people.

What- For my magic research, the race that could get me into trouble was the wizard.

And she was a wizard.

Raize headed to the Adventurer’s Guild with a job posting.

* * *

“─So, this is Rize, who came here after seeing the job posting!”

Tall, about 170 cm. A beauty with gray-brown hair who has long arms and legs like her model and small breasts that seem to be inversely proportional to them.

This was Dojin’s impression when he first saw Rize.

As if she didn’t care how Dojin and his group evaluated her, she put the cone hat on her head and opened her mouth.

“Know with glory. You little adventurers. “I have decided to join your party.”

“Aang-?”

“Do you have bad hearing? They say an adventurer’s body is their wealth, but unfortunately… “I am merciful, so I will say it again.”

As befits a wizard who grew up in a closet his entire life. Raize had no idea about etiquette for dealing with adventurers. According to what he saw in books and what he heard from others, most of the adventurers were from the lower class, so he just thought that the people in front of him would be similar.

And this is what a magician, who can be said to be a kind of nobleman, looks like towards the lower class.

“—Pay attention. My name is Raije. “I am the wizard who will take you to the end of the dungeon from now on.”

“Change.”

Dojin requested Pion to change members.
