Chapter 3: Admission (1)
Note: It is an edited MTL
Thump! As the warrior collapsed, I also fell to the ground.
Huh, Hyuk
My hands were trembling. This was partially due to the fear of death, but more so because I had never driven myself to such an extreme situation before.
First Battle, First Blink, First Kill.
The pain came from the broken shin, and the five corpses lying all over the place made me realize that I had become a different person.
This was a reality, and I was the Flash Wizard Baek Yu-Seol.
And, I killed them all to survive.
Ugghhh
I couldnt stand the thrashing pain of my shin, so I hurriedly rummaged through the warriors pockets before I could be swept away by any whirlwind of emotions.
Fortunately, there were potions.
When it was passed down to the throat, a bitter taste came in and induced nausea. The taste of the potion I drank for the first time was really bitter and sweet.
When I took out another bottle of potion and sprayed it on my shin, I felt the pain gradually ease. This seems to be the pain-relief effect that depends on the potion. Because it was a cheap potion, I did not recover immediately, but this was enough.
I lived.
Finally, a sense of relief came, and the tension was relieved. I realized my legs are shaking a lot right now.
For now, I have to get out of here
Slowly standing up, I realized that both bodies had pockets. I was poor and didnt have much money, so I had to make a realistic decision.
Blood-stained money is said to be filthy, but it doesnt really matter to someone who doesnt really have money.
I shove through the pockets of the pursuers, grab a bunch of junk, and put them in my backpack. There was quite a bit of cash available, about two million credits. In Korea, it is about 2 million won. The weapon included a spear, a crossbow, and a self-defense dagger. In the game, I used to use a special long gun as an auxiliary weapon developed by alchemy engineering instead of a crossbow, but it was still not available, so I needed to use it in the entrance examination.
Although I used a spear as my main weapon, I also used an ax or a sword when I was in a car. Since I couldnt attack the enemy with point-by-point acceleration anyway, heavy weapons were often quite useful.
There is a high possibility that these weapons will be useless if I meet a real wizard.
Its good to think that youre using a dagger while teleporting to an opponent wearing armor and holding a charge rifle. If Im lucky, Ill win by teleporting at once, but the moment my enemy realizes the fact that the only thing I can do is teleport, they will focus more on defense, so I, who is weak in offense, will lose the battle for it lasted longer.
But if I go to the city and take care of it, these are all money.
I would have to battle with such a crude weapon until I awaken by raising the level of the Magic Leakage Delay.
In this world, there was no such thing as a sword spirit or an Aura Blade, but the only thing that could imitate it to a similar extent was me with my Magic Leakage Delay.
As soon as I can put mana on my weapon and release it explosively, I will have quite a useful attack power.
Wow, how did my arms get so twisted?
I must have recovered well, so I got up with my backpack on. Just then, someone shouted from across the cliff.
There, who is it?
It was a small group of wizards. Perhaps if I had crossed the cliff normally, I would have encountered it at just the right time, but the reality was still real or not centered on the timing. I stood up in a hurry and waved.
There are people here!
After crossing that cliff, I dont know what will happen to me. This is because the screen disappeared after a simple system message. If they leave, there is a high chance of getting lost, so I cant miss their wagon.
Murmer, Murmer
There was a whisper between them, but I couldnt tell because the distance was at least 100 square meters.
Before long, a man presumed to be the leader shouted as if there was some kind of consensus.
There are no bridges nearby! Can you come over?
I responded quickly.
Yes! Im coming now!
* * *
Meanwhile, across the cliff.
Im coming over.
The wizards identified the boy on the other side with a telescope. The distance between the cliff and the cliff was quite long, so crossing seemed almost impossible without learning the Knight Level Wizards Power Jump series magic.
A knight of at least 3rd class would be able to cross over
Will that little boy be able to?
While the wizards were expressing such a question, the boy standing across from them suddenly appeared on top of a floating stone with afterimages waving as if gliding.
Huh?
What is that? Its not Jump-Type magic!
Hmm, I dont know. Its my first time seeing that kind of magic
As the wizards panicked, a certain wizard in a grey-robe sitting at the back answered.
Blinking.
It was not known as she was still hiding her face, but the grey robe must have been a girl.
Blinking?
Yeah. Its Blinking.
However,
Blink was impossible to control magic. It was impossible to go half the distance you want in the direction you want, like that boy.
What the hell is that?
The boy was crossing the floating stone very slowly, whether there was a cooldown even when blinking, or it was to calculate the distance.
I can wait for that. Its rare to see such a unique wizard.
However, the option of waiting leisurely has disappeared.
Two men in robes appeared behind the boy, and started casting a magic circle on the palm of their hand!
The leader hurriedly shouted.
Hey! Its dangerous!
Baek Yu-Seol, who understood the meaning of these words too late, looked back.
Hurruk!
It was only when he found a huge sphere of flames that flew toward him.
Before he could finish swearing inwardly, Baek Yu-Seol jumped forward. The sphere of flame collided with the floating stone he was standing on and crashed to the ground.
[Blink]
The hell
Baek Yu-Seol, who barely managed to blink toward the upper floating stone and hang on the edge, looked back again.
What are those
Come to think of it, at first, there were initially seven pursuers. Two of them fell behind and I faced five. But since they havent been following me for a long time, I thought they must have returned, but I didnt know that they would come this far.
Seeing them chanting magic spells while grinding their teeth, I think they were outraged at the death of their comrades.
Crazy!
I felt a tingling sensation at my head and I could tell without looking.
Coordinate magic, Thunderbolt.
One is a flame, and the other one is low-level magic of a rookie-level lightning mage, but if the current me was hit, my body would stiffen, and I will fall and die.
He hurriedly fell from the floating stone, but the cooldown of blinking, 3 seconds, had not yet passed.
Damn it!
Fortunately, some of the loot I recovered earlier was useful. When I was rummaging through a backpack, I took out a wire that the archer was using and threw it cheaply upwards on the floating stone.
Piing!!
The moment I managed to reach the floating stone transferring the recovery burden onto the wire and pulling myself, a sphere of flame flew overhead and hit the other floating stone in front of me.
Puffing!
He was a magician with poor accuracy.
However, it was threatening enough.
Because the floating stone hit by the sphere fell down the cliff below.
Pas..
I looked down at the cliff where the sand dunes and floating stones fell, but it was so foggy that I couldnt see the bottom as if the clouds in the sky were filling in between them. If I fell, I would disintegrate without the feeling of dying.
[Blink]
Since then, my body moved in a trance, leaving myself to my instincts.
I hung on the floating stone, rotated my body around, pretended to fly the wire to another floating stone, used blinking, and somehow avoided the magic that flew back to the floating stone where the wire was placed again because of flying magic.
Yellow lightning bolts chained to the rocks and chasing after the snow like snakes, bullets of flames that disintegrate from the sky and pour down like rain.
Since there was no defense magic, I flew between the floating stones as if I was in a circus.
Arrows of flames and chains of lightning brushed through my cheeks.
wow
The wizards marveled at the urgent situation when they saw it. There was no sense of crisis in the boys leisurely movements.
Its greatIts the first time Ive seen a knight using such magic.
His movements are no joke.
By the way.
Why doesnt he use a defensive technique?
It was natural to have such a question. A wizard with that skill would be able to easily block the low-level magic of the Rookie Mage.
But do they really know?
The fact that the boy running on that floating stone cant use any magic other than blinking.
Damn it!
Baek Yu-seol, who was gradually pushed to the limit, clenched his teeth. A single ray of lightning started to chase after the floating stone and the floating stone in a chain from the rear.
Although the destructive power was low, a chain lightning magic that blinds a large number of enemies. There is still no way to avoid this magic.
Fucking Jigsaw!!
Blinks cool time was still a long way away, so I shot the wire in a hurry and hit the floating stone, but even if I floats my body in the air, it will definitely chase me and hit me.
Is all this in vain?
At that time, while Baek Yu-seol was clenching his teeth as he watched the approaching chain of lightning, the wizard in gray robes, who had been observing the situation from the back jumped up and opened a magic circle.
Huh? what are you going to do
Get out of the way.
The wizards made an absurd expression.
The level of wizards in among them was only 2-3 classes, so they couldnt learn long-distance magic to save the boy from those wizards that were more than 100m away.
As they thought, that gray robe girl must also be a third-class wizard. At such a young age, that level of achievement was great, but it is unreasonable.
The distance is too far. Theres a possibility that mana will disappear or the trajectory will deviate and the magic will fail.
However, the leader quickly shut his mouth. A spear of ice covered with lightning bloomed at the fingertips of the grey-robe girl. [A/N: She seems to be the FL]
Two, two attributes?!
Paang!!
It was surprising for a moment, that the magic that the girl shot collided with the chain lightning flying towards the boy they both were canceled out and vanished.
You calculated that trajectory
That was surprising, but even more surprising was what unfolded in the next turn.
The girl bit her lip and swung her staff, using the explosion recoil of lightning to shoot the spear of ice at an incredible speed.
It brushed past Baek Yu-seols cheeks.
Peck!
It struck one of the wizards standing on the other side of the cliff in the chest and smashed it into the rock in the back.
An ice spear of such terrifying power!
uh, uh!
What, crazy.
Did you hit across this distance with just an ice spear?
I cant believe it.
The other wizard, as soon as he saw that his comrade was killed by magic from a distance of more than 100m, was greatly shaken and started to run away, even canceling the magic he was using.
Seeing the grey-robed girl sit down and breathing heavily, the wizards looked at each other with pale expressions.
The person jumping on the floating stones was also a young boy, but that girl also looked young, how talented were they?
Ha, ha
Eventually, Baek Yu-seol was able to safely cross over the cliff on a floating stone and move in a wagon with the help of the group of wizards.
Hey, you did a good job. Its the first time Ive ever seen a knight with great moves like you.
The leader approached first and asked Baek Yu-Seol to shake hands.
Hmm, so by the way where are you from?
Yes?
Because it was a slightly random question, I answered in a bewildered voice.
I came from over there.
No, not that
My absurd answer quickly cleared the air and some wizards burst into laughter. The girl, who had maintained a quiet atmosphere, was also a little shaken as if she was dumbfounded.
Its not that, its asking about your affiliation.
ahI have no affiliation.
Oh, are you an independent knight? Then, how about joining our wizard group?
No, I cant Because I am still an aspiring wizard.
What?
Really?
The wizards listening to us exclaimed in surprise. This was because the movements I showed were already at the level of a veteran. Not to mention, I had enough mobility to cross that rocky cliff.
Heh, I thought you were already a professional wizard because you were so talented. Excuse me for this.
Hearing my words, the other wizards began to talk. Why was I still an aspiring wizard with such skills, and I wonder what kind of sound they will make when they realize that the only skill, I know is blink.
I turned my head to find the grey-robed wizard who had helped me. She was sitting in a corner of the carriage.
Thank you for helping me. In fact, I almost died.
The girl raised her head. I could tell at once that the one with a smooth jawline was a woman, not a man.
I didnt do it for your thank you, so dont worry about it.
Somehow, the tone was quite sharp.
Her voice is the most beautiful thing Ive ever heard in my life
Even her harsh voice sounded as fresh as singing a farewell song.
Does she have light blue hair?
Light blue hair was peeking through her grey robes.
A wizard with light blue hair and lightning and ice magic. It was a familiar combination, but I didnt delve into it any further.
She was covering her face, but it was not polite to stare at it.
Whoa
Following the guidance of other wizards, I slumped into the corner of the carriage, and looked helplessly into the air.
After completing an episode during the day, suddenly another episode appeared in my mind.
[Episode 2]
[Enter Stellar Academy!]
The completion of the second episode wouldnt be too difficult, but I was more worried about what will happen after that.
What am I going to do in the school life at my age?
