Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 523 Quin, Med, And Lizzy

?

[OP: ]

"Mi lok tel zemivoni…"

"Hello everyone. My name is Aleequinn but feel free to call me Quin."

Everyone was looking at the two of them as Quin talked in that unusual language with that unusual tone that almost gave them a creepy feeling but they all managed to not be taken away by that strange language or the feeling.

It was pretty normal for one to feel strange when coming across people who originally spoke only a different language than what they are capable of.

The difference in language, however, was only a thin sheet for those who had a broader perspective so they all were looking at her with impressed smiles, listening to a language they had never heard before.

They had never thought they would meet some human, a normal person like them, who wouldn't know the common language or even some native language that they all knew about.

Alf, especially, was surprised because even though he was fluent in nearly thirty languages and roughly knew many more, this was his first time coming across one as strange as this one.

It was a unique experience for him and he could feel something unique from the mere words she was speaking, something magical that he felt familiar but couldn't exactly say where he had felt this feeling from.

He wanted to know more about this language now, and though he could have just asked the two people before him, his brother and sister-in-law, he could not do so just yet.

This was still their first meeting so teaching him a language that he could tell was more special than they all thought, was not something he could do.

Yes, there would soon come a time when he would be able to ask them those questions or even more intimate ones that he only asked his brother and sisters.

That time would come soon, but for now, his mage mind had to learn all he could on his own from this unique person who used that unique language.

"Tasha mme hiku toka netu…"

"I'm sorry for not speaking in a language you all are comfortable with but please accept my apology and please try to cope with this simple solution.

I'm doing my best to learn the common language the best I could but even though it is an easy one, it would still take me a few days. 

I hope you all can help me as I'm not only new to the academy but also to this world."

She took a brief pause and looked at her friend Uriel who was reciting all the things she said so perfectly with the same feeling behind them that she couldn't help but be surprised at how good she was with this translation thing.

Her amazing friend was far more reliable than she thought so she was even more at ease now.

"Fatui mira le Ehu fa…"

"You see, I have been living with my grandpa till now and the island we lived in was a small place with not much there.

Things were peaceful with the little people we had there but then my grandpa passed away, leaving behind his last will for me to attend a place that was the most amazing in the entire world.

I didn't know it before he became one with mother nature but he was an adventurer, probably not a famous one that everyone knew about, but certainly someone who had seen the world more than many others.

He was a great man, and I only came to know more about him when I got here. Still, what I know probably isn't even half of what he might have lived through.

A person's life and journey can't actually be contained in a limited canvas or a boundary between two book covers, after all.

Life is more than what words could contain, what books could talk, or what bards could sing.

Life is a unique journey, an experience that has a certain start, an uncertain end, and in between those two certain moments, there is an intangible road of choices we had made, an endless ocean of memories we have collected, and an endless sky full of possibilities we never got to experience.

It is unique, has many things that are common, and has many things that are not. Have many elements that we will take with us and keep in the pockets of our fragile cardigan that could hold many of these elements at the same time, or tear down with a single touch of some other similar-looking, yet vastly different element from what we know, what we carry with us in those pockets.

Life is short, only limited to two points named the start and the end and everything in between. But, at the same time, this in-between is something so vast, something so deep, something so profound yet something so simple, it is just fascinating thinking how this ineffable idea of living is understood so easily as a natural concept."

She stopped, took a little breath, and sighed as she looked at the open-mouthed faces of most of the people present at their lunch table…

There was silence for a moment but they all were looking at her, trying to comprehend what they had just witnessed.

"Did someone record that?" Then Carla suddenly spoke up and everyone instinctively looked at her, and then around them, wanting to know the answer to the same question.

"I did." And just then, Eon raised his hands, showing a purple recording crystal, something too rare and costly to see with someone that was neither a noble nor someone from a rich family like their Med.

But he showed it to them, so at least their eyes weren't deceiving them right now.

"Good work. Post it on the poetry and philosophy pages of forums later."

"Aye, aye captain."

Giving her a salute, he placed the crystal back, more like back under the table, and everyone came out of their daze, looking at the person that put them in that state.

"You should do poetry, Quin."

"And make a unique page of your own and ask for money to see your new posts every month. You would earn as much as those <NO> streamers. Probably more if it is something of this level.

The first to suggest that was Chry and after her, the one who gave that good idea was Lizzy.

She wasn't exactly a merchant or someone related to one but she had good insight and talent to earn necessary money through various means. And her cooking talent helped her most of the time.

She had that talent, coupled with a certain aspect about her, and that was the very reason she was able to survive in the hellish slums of the holy kingdom.

"I will t… think a-a-about that."

It was difficult but Quin answered them while looking at Chry with a smile and then nodded at Rein, and finished her introduction after that point. 

Rein, and Eon also finished their introductions with small things and things that they had already said in their class, adding a little something to them to make them tastier and a little unique.

Rein didn't miss any of his suggestions this time so their turn ended finely, so it was their very new friend Med's turn now.

"H-hello! I'm Media Glory, a (tier-2) mage with the most affinity with Null attributes.

I like magic, alchemy, coffee, and talking with friends about our favorite books.

And I love the epic of burning hearts! It's the best thing to exist~!"

She was too excited as she shouted that and the ones sitting beside her, Rein and Lizzy, were stunned to see that passionate reaction.

She was red with excitement, hot blood painting her cheeks with a rare shade that even Rein wasn't expecting to see from this cute girl… which just made her even more likable!

"That book is not just some book but a life! An emotion! A basket full of strong hearts that… masterfully shows the impermanence of our fragile little lives."

A sad expression overtook her pretty face and Rein patted her cute little head and hugged her after that.

It wasn't rare for someone to get attached to a story this much, but she was different.

They didn't know what changed her before, but now that the two heard this, they could certainly tell what had caused this drastic change.

She was a special case that became one with that story, and it wasn't something bad from at least Rein's point of view.

It happened naturally, so there was nothing for them to worry about. At least not for a while.

"So that is me, and I'm taking classes of (Superior alchemy), (Null magic research), (Theoretical literature), (Insight to taste), (Visual representation of literature), and (Advanced Film studies).

Please take care of me too."

"Of course I will~."

Rein hugged her again, and from the subjects she mentioned, everyone present there already knew what the cute reason behind her unique selection was.

And they liked her even more because of that. Who wouldn't like a rich, cute girl who was strong and talented and also knew what she wanted to achieve in her life?

She was attractive with just those cute reactions of her, but this little intro made her even more attractive for them.

"Alright~! Lizzy's turn~." Zoe shouted and shifted everyone's focus on her new pretty friend, exiting them with her mere voice as usual.

Zoe was so special that what she did felt so natural to the new people around her that they didn't even feel the need to question anything about her.

She was as special as usual, but the introduction… or more like the story her new friend Lizzy told them was also unusual, shocking, and definitelynot something any of them were expecting.
