[ Episode 380. The first step to destruction ]
[“Get out of this house for now.”]
The first opinion I suggested was to go outside.
“yes? Ha, but…”
[“What you need most right now are two legs.”]
To be honest, one of the things I didn’t understand was Nebro’s two legs.
‘You can’t fix your leg in a world where transcendental beings exist?’
I, who roughly knew the power of the transcendent, couldn’t understand why Nebro was living in an uncomfortable body. Even if I go to the Transcendentalist related to healing, it will be fixed in no time.
Of course, there must have been several circumstances. However, in my view, this happened because his family did not have much affection or interest in Nebro.
“A leg?”
[“Yes, getting stronger comes next.”]
I shook my head.
Information about the Transcendentalist was extremely rare, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t there at all.
‘There was definitely a transcendental person involved in healing.’
There were many, not just one.
If you could go find one of them and pay enough to fix both legs, it would at least be better than it is now.
“How can I fix my leg…”
[“Of course I’ll have to find someone who can fix it. For example, a lady with a jade mountain as a hairpin.”]
As far as I know, the lady with a jade mountain as a hairpin was a Chinese mythological god named Seowangmo. In terms of games, I thought it would be a mix of different cultures because it’s a game, but I didn’t expect to say that we should meet in person like this.
“…That is nonsense. Those who have reached the level of transcendence do not use their power recklessly against others. Wouldn’t you like to try it with my family?”
[“So are you giving up? Do you want to live like that for the rest of your life?”]
At my words, Nebro hesitated without answering.
I guess I should take care of my confidence before I go out.
[“Yes, it must be difficult to go out in this body anyway and meet such transcendent people. Let’s start by studying.”]
“Studying?”
This guy I’ve seen for 3 years couldn’t use his legs, so of course he didn’t have any physical abilities, and at least he dealt with abilities similar to magic, but something was clumsy.
It was probably before the study of magic was systematically equipped in this era.
‘In this world, it seems that there are many people who have become stronger with innate power. It’s like the Transcendentalists, and there’s nothing systematic about it.’
Transcendentalists were literally those who were born as transcendental beings. They were just mythical beings who didn’t become stronger by learning swordsmanship or learning magic.
Of course, not all of them were like that, but at least there didn’t seem to be any magic organized academically.
[“Let me tell you that I am magic.”]
“Magic?”
Nebro tilted his head.
It was questionable how far this guy could catch up, but I was also confident.
‘I’ve been practicing magic from the ground up, too. Besides, I wrote a thesis worthy of recognition.’
Of course, 80% of the thesis was written by Diane and Lucia.
Anyway, I said to Nebro with a sinister smile inside.
[“It’s a special training from today, kid.”]
**
Time passed so quickly.
Five years had passed since I entered Nebro’s body.
‘I thought I’d be able to pop out and talk at will, but it wasn’t, so it was a little uncomfortable.’
As if the cooldown was running, I was able to talk with Nebro sparsely.
“This is pure.”
Hurreuk-
“I understand this.”
Ugh-!
“This is a contradiction.”
Whoops!
It’s only been two years since I taught magic.
During those two years, Nebro learned magic at an incredible rate.
‘Is it also the transcendent bloodline?’
Nebro seemed to have no talent, but after systematic training, he learned magic at a speed that was incomparable to that of ordinary humans.
And I didn’t just teach Nebro three origins.
“This is harmony.”
buzz buzz!
“This controls.”
Piing–!
Having learned all five origins, Nebro was able to handle magic as freely as his own body. Rather, it’s ironic that they can’t create original magic.
[“I worked hard.”]
“Thanks to you, angel.”
All preparations are complete.
Today was the day to finally leave.
Of course, it’s a situation that I didn’t inform the surroundings at all.
‘To be disturbed again. You should never tell me.’
There was no one in this family who would care much about Nebro’s departure anyway. It was proven by the fact that no one was interested even after being locked in a room for five years.
Nebro also didn’t seem to have much concern about his family.
In fact, rather than worrying, he seemed to be looking forward to the world he was seeing for the first time in his life.
“But angel, who should I go to fix my leg? And will those of high rank really take the risk to fix me?”
There’s more information I’ve come to know in the past two years.
Apart from the existence of the transcendents in the world, they had great limitations in using their powers.
In the end, the reason why Nebro couldn’t fix his leg was also a problem. There is no way there would be a healing transcendental person who would endure that kind of restriction for the sake of Nebro……. [
“Let’s go east.”]
“East?”
Of course, I wasn’t about to give up.
Because finding a breakthrough in any situation was my motto.
[“You have to get out of your family’s territory. To get caught again.”]
“Well, if they knew that I had gone out, it would be a shame that the family would make a fuss. If possible, it would be better to go far away.”
After learning the magic, Nebro seemed quite confident. Compared to the first time, it was a great improvement.
“But angel, do you really need to fix your leg? If the magic the angel taught me is just like this……”
Nebro spread his magic.
Then I could see him step on the ground as if he were standing.
“how is it?”
Another piece of information I learned in my two years spent teaching magic.
[“Didn’t you want to become stronger?”]
“……That’s right.”
[“I can teach you swordsmanship. And you can learn the sword. As long as those two legs are fine.”]
Nebro did not distinguish between mana. That’s why it was a constitution that could handle magic and sword at the same time.
I didn’t ask if it was because it was transcendent blood or if Nebro was special, but if I could learn it, I should teach it.
‘It has to be at least to the extent that Samael will admit it. Because that’s the goal.’
It was nonsense to surpass the transcendent.
However, if it is possible to obtain Samael’s approval with just one magic… Well, yes.
Samael’s approval might not be so important, but at least Nebro’s current goal was his approval.
“You have to learn.”
[“But why is it different? Are you relieved?”]
“Sorry. I just made a joke.”
Nebro undid the magic and sat on the floor laughing.
When someone who seemed like he couldn’t joke at all made a joke, he had no choice but to take it seriously.
‘Suddenly the time has run out.’
I gradually felt that the time to maintain my will was disappearing, and I gave one last piece of advice.
[“The first goal is to get out of the realm of the family first. I will come back after fixing my legs and building up my skills to your satisfaction.”]
“Okay.”
[“I’m just going in. Be careful and watch over everything.”]
“Yes, angel.”
By the way, I’m glad you followed my words well.
If it were me, I would have been suspicious of the monster who suddenly started talking to me.
‘…Maybe there wasn’t a person to rely on that much.’
Soon night came.
Kiik –
Sharing the sight of Nebro, I couldn’t hide my nervousness when I saw Nebro’s escape somewhere clumsy.
“Whoa.”
Nebro was also cautiously escaping the family using magic with a clear nervous expression. It was an exceptionally loud heartbeat night.
“I came out.”
When I came out of the temple-like appearance, I came to a street lined with buildings of a style I had never seen before.
‘Is it the same place?’
It was a little questionable whether it was the same place as the continent I was on, but I had no choice but to watch it.
“East…he told me to go east.”
Muttering to himself, Nebro floated with his body slightly floating in the air. The speed was similar to walking, but I felt a little stuffy.
“Waaaa…….”
The reason he was slow was simply because he was distracted by the surroundings. Perhaps because it was dawn, there were no lights on the street, but Nebro was just looking back with his mouth open.
‘I’ve been living in a place like that temple all my life……’
I understand, but my heart was in a hurry to see the family of Nebro still coming into sight.
You’re full of room, kid.
Damn!
Then Nebro slapped both of his cheeks.
“You need to calm down.”
yes that’s it
Seeing Nebro say what I wanted to say, I called for joy.
“They said the night is dangerous. It’s the time when goblin ghosts and Typhon gareums appear…….”
Looking at Nebro muttering something to himself, I wondered what he was talking about. Are there monsters that only appear at night? So why aren’t people like this?
I didn’t know that kind of information, so I just told him to go out on a night where he wouldn’t be seen, but it made me a little uneasy.
‘All I know is what Nebro has been through for 5 years. Since this guy doesn’t interact with people around him, there’s no place to get information.’
In the midst of some uneasy feelings, Nebro finally started to move outside the borders of the village.
Chow-!
– Spoken words!
And as soon as I came out of the boundary, the scenery changed and I heard a bloody sound.
“Huh?!”
Embarrassed, Nebro hurriedly looked around and identified the source of the noise.
Heartbreak-!
Spaw!
There, a swordsman holding a silver sword that shone brilliantly in the moonlight was cutting down monsters with grotesque appearances.
‘There are a lot of numbers.’
The prosecutor struggled, but there were dozens of monsters around, and they looked dangerous.
“What should I do?”
Nebro, who had no real combat experience, felt embarrassed. And the prosecutor who happened to find such a Nebro exclaimed with an absurd expression.
“What are you! It’s dangerous, so go back!”
was it a woman?
I couldn’t tell because the clothes I was wearing were thick, but the voice was clearly that of a woman.
“Even run away…….”
[“If you run away, where do you run away. To your house?”]
I shouted, straining my will.
[“Fight against it. Samael is strong enough to clean up those monsters with a single gesture. Wasn’t it your goal to be recognized by such Samael?”]
“Ha but…”
[“If you don’t believe in yourself, believe in me and believe in the magic I taught you.”]
Nebro’s tremors came
But somehow he didn’t back down.
[“Go Nebro.”]
“Ugh!”
Mana gathered.
At the same time, a huge ball of fire began to light up the dark world.
“iced coffee……?”
The female swordsman who shouted at Nebro hurriedly retreated with a look of surprise at the sudden appearance of a fireball.
“I believe in angels!”
Roaring——–!
What would it be like if the sun was in your hand?
A fireball more powerful than most high-level magic blazed up.
‘As expected, this guy is……’
Nebro said.
He was a magical genius.
Kwaaaaang———-!
The pouring down sun hit the ground.
In the meantime, Nebro, who exquisitely controlled mana, controlled the female swordsman so that there was no damage.
Chiiik–
Roaring!
The forest infested with monsters became brighter.
If inferno were to appear on earth, would it look like this?
“What is this……”
Just one shot.
Just one magic was enough to wipe out dozens of monsters.
“……What are you? Are you a transcendent?”
“Yes yes? Ah, that’s me…”
The identity of the female swordsman, revealed by the moonlight and bright flames, was none other than an elf. And at the elf’s question, Nebro scratched his head with a puzzled expression.
