Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 293 - The Mockery And Illusion

all that came out was a goblin ear. Upon seeing this, the look of disappointment and regret filled the room as everyone began pondering about why they wasted there time.

"Ha… Ha ha Ha! I told you all!! You should see the look on your faces ha ha!" Said a man as he dropped to the ground crying out with laughter

It was then that everyone realized, they could just laugh it off.

"Y-You're right, damn I nearly thought I was in for a surprise… ha ha ha!" Laughed another

Then one by one, people in the room began to laugh at the pathetic site. Those who didn't laugh just weren't interested in anything in the first place or busy with other things.

But one single person had a different reason for not laughing and that was the receptionist.

"What…?" 

That was the single word she muttered as she stared at what was in front of her. She then look around with haste to see if they were truly blind or just didn't see things correctly. 

She then began to wonder who the blind one was again or if what she was looking at was really something to laugh at.

'A Wyvern head… Saber tooth's nail and a Great Lizard's skin? What's more it's been cleanly cut and extracted? Not only that but there's more… Other monsters… What are these? I can't even recognize them…?!'

The receptionist nearly fell back and shouted in fear and surprise, but she was surprised when she noticed that she couldn't move nor speak. All she could do was stare straight at the young man.

Fear filled her bones as she began to wonder whether or not he had plans to attack this guild. No one in their right minds would, but this guy. He was different, able to take down a Wyvern even, not to mention it wasn't one formed in the dungeon. 

It was a pure real Wyvern which has supposedly lived many more years than the one in the dungeon, making it even more dangerous.

What does he want? What is his objective?! How do I warn everyone!? Such thoughts raced through her mind as he stretched his arm forward. And as It moved closer only one thought remained. 'I underestimated him.'

With her heart nearly beating out of her chest, she braced for what he was about to do to her, when suddenly. His arm stopped right above the table which had the monster parts. They were all crammed in together so they wouldn't fall out of the table.

He pointed at it then signaled a be quiet sound with his mouth. She didn't know why but that sent chills down her spine. With no other choice, she nodded.

Upon seeing this, suddenly she could move, so her first reaction was to test out of she could talk.

"Ah-" She quietly let out

Now, it was time to be careful, he didn't show any hostility and he's an adventurer so there was nothing to be afraid of, however even high-ranking adventurers lose their patience from Time to time and abuse their powers. She understood that he wanted her to keep quiet about it but didn't understand why,

After all, he placed them right in front of everyone. So why? Why? Were they all laughing at these parts? She wondered, for even she didn't recognize some of the monsters.

"W-Wait…" She muttered

Upon hearing this, the young man stared straight at her.

"I don't recognize some of these… But they look even harder to kill than the Wyvern… Are they monsters from a different continent?" She asked

For a moment, the young man seemed lost in thought but she took that a sign of him being infuriated, so she quickly took a quiet gulp as she looked down.

'I've done it now…' She thought to herself as tears slowly began to stream down.

However, just as she did that, he slowly placed his arm on her face, before wiping away the tear and nodding.

In that instant, as she stared straight up at him, her view on him changed. Despite being strong, he gave off the Air and presence of a weakling. Furthermore, he was the quiet type and quite handsome. 

'Maybe isn't such a bad guy… He did all of this so that I wouldn't add to much attention to his kills. That was the Right thing to do…' She wondered

Now that the question of his hostility had been slightly answered, all that remained was the question of why everyone had reacted that way? Was it because they had never seen these monsters before? But just by looking at them, dread filled the receptionists bone, so she couldn't understand why.

Then after some thinking, it hit her. What if it what they were seeing was different to what she was seeing? There was only one possibility.

'An illusion'

If it was indeed an illusion and one of this caliber where she didn't hear a single chant, she had to confirm whether the one she was staring at was the real one, so she stretched out her arm and poked at the Wyvern head's scale only to indeed confirm her doubts.

It was real, so real that she nearly cut herself from just touching the scale. The others seemed poisonous and sinister, maybe cursed. She didn't want to touch them until further inspecting it.

'How am I going to take all of this back, if I'm the only one that can see it? Wait, why have I accepted this so easily? I'm the only one that can see this… An illusion casted by a magician who I've never heard of in barely any time. When did he cast the illusion? There wasn't any chants or magic circles…'

Her thoughts were going all over the place, when suddenly, everything the young man had brought out was sucked back into his ring.

"Eh- wait-"

There was no need.. He then proceeded to take off his ring and handed it to her.
