How to live as a wanderer

Scared and angry in the knights' eyes as the blood spurts around.

No knight entered here prepared for life. It was about kidnapping a wizard. The user thinks that even if the target resists, it will be over if the target is knocked out.

And all of a sudden, this bloodshed.

“Who are you!? Do you know who we are? ”

“Aren't they the kind of guys who wear masks and try to kidnap people? ”

The knight who spoke habitually blushed his face. He was ashamed of what John said.

Cagnerna, who noticed the emotion, chuckles.

“Why don't you name your family and apply for a duel? ”

“... You may kill anyone but the Wizard!" Hit it! ”

Now this warehouse is crowded and narrow. It was difficult to develop sophisticated skills in a place like this. Power and cuffs were all I had.

John is holding a blade, but there are a number of knights. Moreover, in this situation, there was no big difference between a club and Longsod. You'll fall even if you get hit by one of them.

The knights who thought that came at me with bats.

Just like that!

John breaks the rushing knight's club with one hand. The knight's eyes are so big that they can't get any bigger. John grabbed the knight by the neck. The knight's head turns sideways with the sound of a broken bone.

“Huff!”

You hold the knight up as a shield, and hold Longsword in one hand. A baptism of clubs pours down from my side. John swings his sword. Blood splattered and another knight fell.

A human crafts a move to deal with predators.

The knights forget that and pay the beast a heavy price.

Still, one of the knights swung a club at John's open back.

Puck!

John turns his teeth and breaks the knight's bone. No matter how refined the knights were, they were useless. The knight vomits blood in a single punch.

“... retreat. Protect me!”

The first thing to wake up from this mess was Kaernena. She can barely keep her wits together as if John had been tempted to use his super-strength to break the club.

It was hard to believe that many knights could not fight one, but it was the wizard's role to believe what they could not.

She bites her lip and prepares to step back.

Fortunately, John was slaughtering the knights and didn't notice she was escaping the door.

“Don't move! Move and I'll shoot. On your knees! ”

“!!! ”

But surprisingly, there was an ambush.

There are mercenaries waiting outside the warehouse, pointing bows and bolts at you.

Mercenaries brought by John!

Uh, who are those guys? Why do you want to go in there?

!!!

Get the kids! Get the weapons! We got a problem!

The mercenaries who brought them here may be attacked in the city, but they are acting in a strange direction.

The knights were startled to learn that they had been ambushed.

“... these petty mercenaries dare! ”

“Wait!”

Kaernerna tries to stop him. If she's with you and you do something reckless...

But the knights were already running. It was remarkable that they would not retreat in this situation, but charge bravely.

The problem was not that they were coming now, but that it was peace.

Shushshuck!

A bolt of iron and bow are fired and an arrow is inserted into the knights' bodies. The knights rush at him, gripping his teeth like that. It was truly an amazing sensation. The mercenaries look bored.

But they are also experienced and experienced mercenaries. The response was immediate.

“Iron Bringer, fall back behind the archer! ”

“Shields up! Stop him!”

Knights with arrows in their bodies can't even fight. They drop their clubs and collapse.

“... I said I surrender. ”

Kaernerna said in a calm manner.

Soon after that, the door opens behind you, and John comes out. I couldn't hear the knight's voice from inside.

“Bring him in. ”

“I thought you were an assassin sent by the emperor...”

“Didn't I tell you? Do you really want to do that because the Emperor has nothing to do with it? ”

John recognized the situation and devastated it.

I thought they were after him, but they were just here to kidnap the Fallen.

The tumble looked at John and asked.

“I owe you one. Thank you."

“As a knight, of course. ”

"I bet you thought this guy had nothing to do with it..."

Suetlq was amazed. Gulak hadn't noticed John's mind since he had just met him.

All the other knights, except Cainerna, died fighting back. Cainerna answered the question with a very polite and obedient attitude.

“Why did you try to kidnap Gulag? ”

“I needed the Wizard's help to find one. ”

“Are these the Knights of the Emperor? ”

“Yes.”

“Does the Emperor know about this? ”

“I don't know.”

John stands behind Kaernerna. Kaernerna gives you a clear glance because she cares about the location. It's not like John is holding out on Longsod.

I'm going to slaughter you!

“Wait a moment. I have a few more questions. ”

You ask as if you're curious about the tumble while Suetlg dries.

“Can I be so stubborn? ”

“I know you intend to torture me if I don't. I think it's better to talk than torture. ”

“Why are you looking for a knight? ”

“I have my treasure. ”

“Is that treasure a firecup? ”

“...?! ”

Kaenerna looks surprised for the first time.

“Answer the question. ”

“... That's right. ”

“Can you tell me about the Emperor? ”

“Nothing.”

John sits Long Sod on the shoulders of Kaernerna.

It was a warning.

Kaenerna trembles at the cold metal senses. Kaernerna turns her head to look at John.

John was not the only wizard in this warehouse with three wizards. Kaernerna tries to seduce John somehow.

Red hair, red eyes. Although she covered herself with robes, she was a beautiful beauty. If you combine the magical powers you have there, it's not enough to seduce people.

However, John's eyes did not waver at all.

In those eyes, Caernena felt the power of a strong soul.

John's eyes spoke only one thing.

The death of Kaernerna.

“Why can't you talk? ”

“You swore an oath of mystery and magic. Unless the Emperor is an idiot. ”

Even a court wizard, the emperor did not fully trust the wizard. Of course, he made a vow not to speak outside.

A wizard would rather die than lose his magic.

“Then can I kill him? ”

“... Do you have a grudge? ”

“No. I have no grudge... but keeping the Wizard alive is no good." I don't know what to do. ”

Unlike the gulps and Suetl, John, who knew nothing about magic, had to be wary.

And the best way to prepare is to blow the opponent's head off. Dead wizards don't use magic.

“What do you think happens when your arms and legs are tied together? ”

“I think I'll wake up sneaking off with my strength. ”

“... I was wrong to ask. What do you think about a guy with all his arms and legs tied off? You don't think it's too dangerous? The wizard is the same.”

Suetlq pulls out the goblet of fire and places it in front of Kaernerna. Kaenerna gives you a frightening look. With one shred of fire, Cayerna realizes everything.

“We didn't kill Gairendel. I was just repairing the remains. ”

“...... ”

“Wizards don't kill each other very well. But nothing is absolute. The knight here wants to kill you. Convince us if you want to live. ”

Unlike John, Suetlg had no intention of killing Kaernerna.

He was just too talented to kill.

The wizard was trustworthy. I could never break my vow once.

Cagnerna notices the sigh and sighs.

“What do you want? ”

“I don't know, but the emperor is getting aggressive. We need someone to warn us in case our lives are in danger someday. Will you repay the favor if I let you live? ”

“... if I'm not mistaken in my oath, I'll ask you three times. ”

“What happened today is a mystery, and I swear to God, we have to stay out of it. ”

“I'll do that. ”

John was listening to the wizards' conversations with a surprised look on his face.

Cainerna's allegiance to the Emperor is not as good as her eyes.

Is this the Wizard?

Gulak said next to him.

“She's something else. ”

“? ”

“She thinks she's dealing with the Emperor, not serving the Emperor. That way, you won't hesitate at all. Suttleg is different from her, so don't get me wrong. ”

“I didn't get it wrong. ”

“Really? That's it. ”

Suttle and Kaernena's conversation was so unbroken that they seemed like merchants gathered to negotiate from the beginning.

What happened today is uncovered. Kaernerna recompenses John with three favours for saving his life today.

At the end of the story, Kaernena drops her polite attitude and returns to her arrogant, modest manner. It was because I was confident that my life was guaranteed.

“May the brave knight's path be filled with pain and glory. ”

“...? ”

John immediately pulls out Longsod and tries to cut down Kaennerna. Kaernerna bows, screaming. Suttleg panicked and dried him off.

“What are you doing!? ”

“Isn't that a curse? ”

“No! That's just a greeting! ”

“I'm sorry. I thought it was a curse. ”

“...... ”

Kaernerna stares at John and rides away on a horse.

The cave was a wizard who truly thanked me, though he was crude in his speech.

He pulled out a concert made of the finest leather and hung it over the shoulder of his hand.

The jacket on the armor was the best outfit for knights to brag and show off their family.

A sleek, crimson-colored leather concert was impressively dignified by any knight.

“This leather will protect you from the cold. Not to mention the bite and the arrows. ”

Suetlq was amazed at the appearance of the circus. The cave was a big, small figure. I was not someone to give such a treasure easily.

It was clear that John liked it quite well.

“Come to my house whenever you come to the forest. ”

“How does it sound? ”

“Tell the wolf to come and get it. Be careful. The East is a fierce place. ”

After finishing the conversation, you pick up a hide and throw it at him. Suetlq was absurd on a piece that seemed to be less tanned, rather than sewing.

“Really?"

“Put that on. Cover it up and it'll be warm. ”

“If you got it, give me the right stuff! ”

“I've repaid your kindness. And Suetlg, if you're gonna give me a firecup with a story like that, thank God for the leather. ”

“I didn't know. And the Wizard didn't come for the fire. ”

“That's why I'm giving it to you. It wouldn't have been there if it wasn't. ”

The tumble slams the door shut. Suetlq whines and leathers. Obviously, the magical power was something I felt. It smells nasty.

“He's a good friend. ”

“Better friends than wizards like Cayenner. By the way, don't feel bad about me saving Kaennerna's life. Even if she's unbelievable, saving her would be more beneficial than killing her. ”

“I don't think that's a bad idea. ”

“... Yes. I didn't want to worry you! ”

When John saw the Wizard, he tried to swing the sword first, but when I thought about it, I didn't need to worry.

We'll take care of this glass. Maybe there's a better way to get in touch.

John receives the Cup of Fire. It was a little vague that Cayenner was able to contact him first, but John couldn't reach him.

“It was amazing how loyal the court magician was. ”

“Do you know why Kaernerna gave the firecup to Gairendel? ”

“? ”

“You must have bought it. If they found Karamaf's remains, they were trying to steal Karamaf's swords and goods. It's worth it. ”

“...! ”

Stealing the treasure without reporting to the Emperor.

That's not a level of disloyalty...

“Everything to her must be a deal. The Emperor may think differently, but I don't know what to do. You're the one who cheated. I don't know how many more wizards I'll see in the future, but don't treat me like a knight. I'm gonna get my ass handed to me. Loyalty to a wizard is an unexpected virtue. ”

“You can still expect friendship, right? ”

Suetlq nods and laughs at John's words.

“Yes. Friendship is a virtue to look forward to. ”
