Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Taking the letter, Zick sent the knight away, The letter was as expected had come from the current commander of the knights.

"sir!"

When Zick was getting up, another knight ran towards him, it was a knight from the Melvix family. He handed over something to Zick.

Looking at it Zick knew what it was, it was the crest of the Melvix family. Seeing this Zivk started walking towards his room.

Entering his room, Zick didn't want to stay near the battlefield for even a second so he started preparing to leave.

'I didn't even bath for weeks....'

Zick was really thankful for his body not becoming tired fast if not his body odour would have been that of sweat.

Killing the knights in the battlefield made Zick always be covered in blood, luckily there were mages in there so they cleaned him all the time with their spells.

Zick could only feel helpless right at the moment, the clothes that he had brought wouldn't fit his body anymore. So he could only wear the black leather armour that he was wearing right now.

This black leather armour was taken by the commander long ago when Zick had realized the problem of clothes.

After making sure that he hadn't left anything behind, Zick got out of his house and started heading towards the fortress.

"Sir! you have a letter!"

A knight ran towards Zick with a letter in his hand, the knight paid respect to Zick as he had seen him fight in the battlefield valiantly before.

And Zick had also saved the knight's life once in the battlefield.

The knight was just a newbie who was put in the front line a few months ago.

The Knight's senior called Zick as a monster but he couldn't understand them, when he met Zick for the first time his spine felt chills but he had gotten used to it staying near Zick for a while. His respect for Zick just grew more when he learnt that he was a son of a Duke.

Even though Zick's age was lower than him, he had thought that Zick would do a lot of great things in the future. In other words he was fanatical enthusiast of Zick.

And right at the moment when he saw the letter in his hand, there was only one word in his head.

'I knew it!'

The letter had been sent by the academy to invite Zick. Everyone in the continent knew about the academy's strict selection of candidates to enrol into its classes. There have only been a few instances where the academy took the lead to invite someone and Zick had become one of them.

Actually Zick had become very famous after he had killed hundreds of knights in the battlefield which had never happened since the beginning of the war. Almost all the nobles knew about him.

Right at the moment when the first continent's attention was in the war, Zick's feat had not gone unnoticed by others.

'But still, why do seniors call him a monster all the time?'

The knight was confused but didn't think about it much as he had to give the letter to Zick.

Taking the letter from the knight, Zick sent him away.

"You can go back to your post"

"Yes!"

The knight answered enthusiastically to Zick's emotionless voice and retreated.

Zick ignored the knight's enthusiastic reply as he had met him multiple times in the past month and had gotten used to it.

Seeing the crest of the academy Zick became surprised.

'....For them to send an invitation even before I turn 15....'

The academy must have held Zick in quite high regards for them to send an invitation so fast. Opening the letter, he started reading it while walking towards the fortress.

There was only one page within the letter, the content written on it was simple too.

The academy's chairman invited Zick to enrol into the academy, there was a time limit stating that he could enrol before the age of 18. It didn't state anything else.

'That's just like her...'

Zick knew about the chairman of the academy, her name is Vancenin derspea. In the novel, the chairman didn't appear much in public for some reason but the protagonist had some interaction with her.

The chairman was a woman who was in her 50s, she was a very shrewd person. She had the whole academic under her control, anything that happens within the academic city would not escape her eyes.

Folding the paper he put it within his space ring, the guards of the fortress left Zick to pass through easily as they already knew about him.

The other side of the fortress was open terrain too, but it had lots of greenery unlike the other side.

Zick walked towards the dozens of stables on his right side, there were horses roaming around in an enclosed area and some were eating their food. The groom who took care of the horses ran towards Zick seeing him coming towards the stable.

"Sir, what might you need?"

"I want to buy a horse"

The groom nodded his head, his body shivered as he wasn't used to Zick's aura. But he still started showing Zick all the horses, He knows that displeasing a knight can come with severe consequences.

There were a lot of people who worked in this stable as all the horses used in the battlefield are kept here.

Zick chose a normal black war horse and showed the Melvix family plaque to the groom. He has learnt how to ride a horse while resting after a battle with the second continent army.

Now that Zick didn't have any servants, he had to do all the things on his own.

Getting upon the horse, Zick followed the track road. He already knew where this road would lead as he had inquired about it from some knights.

After 3 hours, Zick reached a small village but passed by it without stopping, his destination was a medium sized city named Gestis city. It would take another half a day to reach there with a horse.

A forest entered Zick field but he didn't stop and entered it without any hesitation. This forest was filled with monsters but it didn't make him nervous at all as there were no monsters which could harm a high rank knight.

Monsters had strong physical strength; some possessed magical abilities, and a few even had special abilities.

On the bright side, humans worked hard to expel monsters from areas where humans normally lived, so there were very few monsters in largely populated areas. So people would encounter only a few monsters while travelling through the trail made in the forest.

Zick wasn't worried about his survival even if he enters deep into the forest but there are a lot of other problems excluding the monster. There were poisonous insects, the problem of navigating the way out and his horse would also have problems when encountering a strong monster.

The war horses are trained from a very long time but still they are not fully resistant to the fear, so there are chances it would run away when a strong monster appears.

After passing this forest, Zick would only need to travel for another hour to reach Gestis city. Galloping in the horse for another few hours, Zick stopped and let the horse rest.

RUSTLE! RUSTLE!

The bushes near him started shaking, Zick felt the presence of the monsters heading towards his location.

Taking out the sword from it sheath in his waist, Zick waited for the monster to appear.

Krrrgh!

There was a band of six goblins who looked at Zick with their yellow eyes.

'Goblins.....'

The goblin was barely a metre tall. It wore nothing, and its only form of weapon was a wooden stick that was crudely shaped into a bludgeon.

Zick knew about the goblins, they were the weakest monster mentioned in the novel. Not wasting his time, he vanished from where he stood and reappeared behind the goblins, He swung his sword horizontally. Three goblins' heads were cut off at once.

Krrrrgh!!

One of the goblins beside the dead goblins tried lifting its club up but three transparent black curved slices cut all three of their heads at once.

Zick had used his one and only long range attack, the piercing mana slice. He had adjusted its power to as low as he could but still the black curved slices cut a few trees behind the goblins. He shook off the green blood of the goblin on his sword and started camping beside a tree.

Zick was following the trails made in the forest so there was no chance of him encountering any strong monsters.
