Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 283 An Unseen Fight (2)

Without any care for this pitiful examiner, I walked down the stage.

The sudden loud noise surprised everyone, including the examiners that saw the arrows fly toward the swordsman.

In unison, all the spectators looked around for what had just happened when they saw me walking down the stage as well as the other side of the arena where the [Rank-4] knight swordsman had almost cracked the walls after his crash with almost fifteen or so arrows on his body...

Though there wasn't even a drop of blood, he was almost unconscious from the sudden impact.

They couldn't understand the things that were happening, and I had nothing to do with them anymore.

The calmest person among them who was right with his judgment was smiling in astonishment.

I can read his eyes and he actually anticipated something like this might happen.

He was a dwarf, an old one at that.

I could sense just from being near him that he was a master forger as well as a great craftsman.

He was experienced, and he had seen many unexpected things in his life, so he wasn't shocked by just how can a young boy like me could be this much strong and proficient with the weapon.

It was clear that he knew that whoever my teacher was, was a great person all in itself and I knew he wanted to have a small chat with me, too.

But, alas...

Even if I also wanted to talk with this dwarf, I would have to part ways with him today.

Maybe there will be a day we can have a talk.

A talk about the crafting and maybe even the enchantment and stuff like that.

As well as the personal stuff.

There will be a day for that but, not today.

I had to go somewhere with this special friend of mine~!

And before that, we had to meet the person who watched both of our fights as calmly as our grandparents.

He was an amazing person from the stories I have heard and unlike most of the mages in the world who are young looking despite their normally old age, this one... was the personification of the old mages of fantasy stories.

I hadn't seen him just yet, and I was looking forward to seeing him, and… he will definitely be a fun person.

There will soon be chaos when everyone comes to their senses and sees the barely conscious examiner.

Rein was shaking her head at me for this unnecessary show of strength, but, well, what can I do?

I knew we will have a long chat with the manager and she also wanted his specially made roasted almond chocolates.

Doing some trading with him would be fun so, I was excited about that.

The swordsman was normal, pitiful but, normal… so there was no need to worry about him at all.

He was fine, and I knew he won't be looking down on his opponents or make any stupid mistake like this one.

He would be fine. Spectators will be losing their memories of this fight, and even the ones secretly watching the fight will be dealt with by the association.

Things ended pretty quickly here, almost in fifteen minutes, with both our fights combined.

And most of that time was taken on the repairs of the stage.

This was alright after the three hours I took to solve the written test so, it was alright.

Now that I have caused this chaos... we should just drag our blankly frozen receptionist out of this arena and just go to the top office.

"Well, let's go, Rein. You can carry her, right? I should clean the wound in the meantime."

"You're dumb, you know that, right?"

"Of course I know~. I'm dumb... dumb for you, that is." I smirked at that last one and she just shook her head in disbelief while watching my blood-covered hand with a helpless expression.

She knew this much was nothing, but she was still upset I would hurt myself like this.

Well, this was something normal... some of my techniques do worse than this much.

Like the last one against the headmaster...

Using that technique was the worse thing ever.

And some of its forms were actually so powerful that I had speculated that I would die for real while using them, even with all the precautions in the world.

Not that I was dying anytime soon. And this is no flag.

I didn't like the death of anyone and, according to my knowledge, the next death of any humanoid being you all should be seeing with me would be the evil spirit after my birthday.

The bad people Celes was following weren't going to do anything significant anytime soon, and the deaths they were causing right now had nothing to do with me.

I may seem cold-hearted from those words but, stopping them one by one will be more catastrophic than just leaving them be.

The best thing to do was just follow their movements and find their base and attack when they had achieved their objective and were in the middle of doing something big.

I knew they were finding something and when they find that and regroup with their subordinates... that would be the time I make my own move.

I knew I alone won't be enough for this thing and that was the reason, aside from Rein, I wanted Chry to awaken his abilities as soon as possible.

And from their speed and efficiency, they will definitely find what they were searching for in a month or two.

I at least hope they take this much so I can finish my own preparations.

Not that I had to worry about anything here. I was no hero anyway.

And stopping them might not be up to us, or me...

Well, I can ask for help if there was any problem but, from the strength, those mages had shown... I believed even Chery alone would be enough to take them down in a single attack with his realized powers.

They were just close to any normal (tier-3) mage but, their executives should definitely be strong, right?

And their appearance in the capital meant there will be some kind of chaos, the real one, soon.

But, well, those things weren't for me to think about just yet.

There was a beautiful lady with me and there were many things we were going to do today so... without much chit-chat, let's go to the mage of light pillar~.
