Chapter 380. The King and the Warlock (3)
Original children die easily.
It's unfortunate, but I gave up as if it was inevitable.
However, Raychen couldn't bear to accept it.
I was struggling to find a way out.
I tried to find herbs, or to find out what was good for the disease.
Everyone said it was useless, but he didn't listen.
It was a rumor I heard by accident.
There is a base where an evil witch stays in the forest near her hometown.
And it is rumored that drought and pestilence were also caused by her.
‘... witch.'
It refers to what is commonly referred to as a black magician.
Evil black magicians who are not recognized not only in the Merman Empire but also in any country on the continent.
It's not like they've committed any particular crime.
Because they control corpses, worship evil rituals, and use all sorts of ominous magic, each kingdom shuns them.
There is such a person.
Of course, it is not certain that there really is such a witch.
It was just that peddlers and travelers passed through the forest and heard rumors that there was a suspicious woman roaming here alone.
But nobody believed it.
However, after hearing the rumor, Raychen couldn't help but head here.
‘Whether it's a witch, a wizard must have medicine.'
He doesn't know much about wizards.
In the past, when I was running errands in a nearby city, all I had to do was accidentally see a wizard performing strange magic on the street.
Rumor has it, however, that they possess all sorts of rare medicines besides magic.
It is the drug that Raychen is aiming for.
‘I must have it to live alone in a forest like this!'
Of course, I don't think it's superficial to ask for it and receive it.
As he ran through the forest, he was conscious of the sword hanging from his waist.
‘I take the medicine from that witch or something!'
It's like robbery, but I can't help it, I justify it myself.
If the opponent is a black magician, there will be no guilt.
‘Yes, if the warlock is the opponent, no one will ask for responsibility.'
However, it is something that must be resolved in its own way.
‘... If I act clumsily, I will die.'
I've heard before how powerful wizards are.
It is by no means an existence that can be easily countered with just one sword.
Even knowing that, Raychen decided to go out to find the witch herself.
If things go on like this, my sister will die anyway.
Likewise, those who are sick will not be able to save their lives.
Everyone stopped him, but he couldn't stay still.
That's how I wandered through the forest in search of the rumored witch.
how many days has it been?
The search was more difficult than imagined.
No matter how strong a young man was, it was reckless to search in such a rough forest for days and days without proper rest.
By the time he too was exhausted.
Was it a coincidence?
He rubbed his eyes when he finally found a hut in front of him.
How could there be such a fine cabin in a forest like this?
For example, hunters or those who make a living gathering herbs in the forest have bases in the forest, but it is impossible for even them to live in a place like this.
That means... .
‘Is that right, that place is the witch's...
Confident enough, he leaned over with his hand on the sword at his waist and waited for the time to pass.
It is standard to raid at night, but the opponent is a warlock.
Rumor has it that warlocks are more powerful in the dark, so using normal ambush methods is insane.
So he deliberately waited for the sun to rise.
In the morning, when the dawn was just waking up, I chose that time.
This time period is also the time when humans are most defenseless due to fatigue.
‘There must be no mistakes.'
Having made up his mind, he struts his sword and breaks into the hut.
There is a possibility that I was mistaken, so I will attack after confirming properly.
In conclusion, his guess was correct.
The black-haired woman who seems to be the owner of this hut is wearing a black robe.
It must be said that black magicians prefer to wear black clothes to hide their demonic energy.
But the question is, why is she sitting there, lighting a fire, as if she had waited!
He even looks back at him right in time.
“... I was told when you would come in, but it took quite a while? He is a very cautious guest.”
“What?”
“Looks like he's not an official knight of the Empire, nor is he a Holy Knight of the Holy Kingdom. Then who are you?”
After witnessing her muttering in a relaxed yet calm tone, Reichen was even more convinced.
“Shut up! witch!”
“?... “Hmm?”
“I already know what you did. quietly...
It was until that point that he shouted confidently and swung his sword.
For some reason, she sighed in pity and wiggled one finger.
At that moment, Raychen was hit by something.
“Khook? !”
Then he broke the wall of the cabin and flew outside.
“What, what a coward...
“It's just simple telekinesis magic. It's a simple move that can be avoided if you're careful... You can't avoid that either.”
The witch looked at him with a pitiful gaze and shook her head.
“Originally, I should have taken that life. I don't even think about it because it's stupid. So please leave quietly.”
“mind... Incredible bullshit...
Reichen tried to get up, but her body didn't listen, as if she had hit her head with a shock a moment ago.
He trembled all over for a moment, and then he slumped.
how lost were you
When he woke up, the sun was already rising the next day.
Had it stretched out almost all day?
He hurriedly got up and checked his condition.
There is no sign of anything being damaged.
The broken cabin had been completely restored as if it had been magically fixed.
“... Kut! That witch!”
Thinking that he had been completely fooled, he picked up his sword again and stormed in.
and after a few seconds.
Quaang!
This time too, he blew through the cabin wall.
“... That's amazing. Are you going to attack me again after I looked at you?”
The witch who easily blew Raychen away this time also glared at him as he was rolling on the dirt floor as if he was truly pitiful.
Rather than being cold, it was a look of contempt for something.
“Are you suicidal? If so, I will kill you without hesitation.”
“Noisy, witch! Yesterday I was lethargic, but today I can't help it.”
This time, Raychen jumped to her feet.
I already expected that I would blow away, so this time I managed to keep myself in good shape.
‘Certainly not normal.'
As rumored, it is a fearsome existence.
indeed... It is true that an ordinary knight cannot stand against a wizard.
However, this is what Ray Chen also expected.
“Hmm?”
Perhaps realizing that Reichen's atmosphere was strange, the witch also became a little more serious.
“I don't know what you're thinking...
She summoned a small black fireball into the palm of her hand and threw it gently.
Even though it looks like this, it has the firepower to easily reduce a bear that lives in the forest to ashes.
However, Raychen did not avoid the flame and swung her sword to face it.
“Haaaaaaaaaaaa!”
An ordinary iron sword that swings loudly with a spirited sound.
“... that.”
She noticed it for a moment, but didn't miss it.
That there was a faint light lingering on the sword.
That moment.
The black fireball was split in two by Raychen's sword and scattered.
“okay. It seemed to me that I was indulging myself in something. Are you Auror?”
“Yes!”
Raychen shouted confidently.
Come on.
It's a power he awakened to last year or so.
One day while training, I suddenly realized the power.
He had already entered the introductory stage of Auror users.
Originally, he was going to show off this to the knights, but I never thought he would use it against a warlock first.
“Even a wizard would not be able to stop the aura easily!”
An ordinary sword does not reach.
However, it can pierce even the protection magic of the black mage with an aura.
Exuding confidence and confidence that this time was different, Raychen rushed towards the witch with all her might.
But he overlooked one thing.
Why didn't he take the witch's power into account?
Before he could reach the sword's reach, his vision suddenly reversed.
A shock as if all the bones in the body were being crushed hit the whole body.
“... Certainly, a sword with an aura is hard to block... however.”
She tilted her palms open.
“How are you going to reach me? At least unless you're an Auror Master, you can't escape my magic with such simple movements.”
“What nonsense... Whoops!”
Raychen screamed as she tried to ignore her.
Due to the gravity magic she used, Raychen collapsed on the floor with the same momentum as she was rushing.
Even now, a terrifying weight weighs down on his shoulders and back.
“You can’t look at it twice. Obviously you tried to hurt me. Unfortunately.”
She opened another magic circle, as if she had no intention of looking at it this time.
He must be trying to use magic that would take his life.
“I can't help but breathe at once...
“... Stop talking nonsense!”
However, Raychen gritted her teeth and tried to get up, then shook off the magic she had spread and rolled her body to avoid it.
I don't know if she acted knowing that the range of her gravity magic was limited, but she stopped breathing for a moment as if she was surprised.
“.? & eww?”
? The ?
“uh... Get some medicine...
with my sister... villagers...
However, it was good to be out of her magic range, but Raychen couldn't move more than that.
Due to excessive strain, the muscles of the whole body are tattered, and it is impossible to walk properly.
Just like that, he fell forward even though he had not suffered anything.
“Ban, you must get some medicine...
“approximately? What do you mean?”
For some reason, she stops the magic she was preparing and asks.
Rather than trying to eliminate those who show hostility.
The author's logic of action has been questioned.
And when a question arises, it is the nature of a wizard to solve it.
However, Reichen couldn't answer that.
Having already reached his limit, he collapsed just like that this time.
However, unlike yesterday, this time he suffered no minor internal injuries.
If left alone for a day, it would die or become a delicious meal for wild animals or monsters.
“...”
Looking down at him, she stood blankly for a moment, as if contemplating what to do.
It seemed like something was troubling me.
Raychen was forced to open her eyes due to the pain that seemed to gnaw through her body.
‘... What is this place?!'
Wasn't he dead?
Raychen thought as she recalled what had happened before she passed out.
Could it be that the witch neglected herself again?
How shallow are you!
He gnashed his teeth and tried to get up.
But the body doesn't budge.
‘what?'
In his bewilderment, his vision returned to normal.
Somehow, this time it was not a forest scene.
What caught his eye was an unfamiliar ceiling.
“... Where is it?”
