A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 129: Magnus Academy (1)

When he went to receive a reward for defeating the Fishman tribe, he suddenly received a nomination request for killing the Fishman commander.

You're not exactly naming our party, but you're looking for an adventurer who has slain a special monster before people start making a fuss about being embarrassed by their swimsuits?

What's so specific?

It was a place name that seemed to know what happened here. All I know is that there was a commotion.

Even if you don't receive a request, it would be fun just to hear what was going on here.

Since we eliminated the giant magic stone and obtained the ability cube, we know that something great was happening, but we don't know what we actually prevented.

Wouldn't it be as interesting to listen to a wizard who accurately named our situation, like looking up an interpretation on the Internet after watching a difficult movie?

In my heart, I had already half-accepted the request and asked Asil and Flora.

"What should I do?"

"There wasn't anything special to do, right? I like it."

Flora's attitude was that it didn't really matter.

"This is my first time receiving a nomination request!"

Asil's eyes lit up with anticipation. Receiving a nomination request is the same as saying that your abilities as an adventurer have been recognized.

Even though they didn't exactly name us this time, it does mean that we've done a great job because they pointed out our actions.

As a result of a 3-second debate within the party, it was passed unanimously, so I decided to listen to it first.

"Great. "I'll listen to the story first."

"Thank you! The client asked me to come in person. They said they would cover the transmission cost, so you can go to the Magic Tower!"

Magic Tower? Where is the Magic Tower?

In the previous episode, I often stopped by the Magic Tower and received enchantments, but in this episode, the city names have all changed, so I don't know the name of the city where the Magic Tower is located.

Hmm... Still, the place called 'Magic Tower' is probably quite famous, so the transmission manager must know about it, right?

After learning how to contact the client at the Magic Tower, I received the reward for exterminating the fishmen, which was my original goal, and headed straight to the transmission device.

After dealing with the giant magic stone, I had everything to do and enjoy for two days, so I no longer had any regrets about Lake Veles.

Finally, after taking in the beautiful lake once more, I walked beyond the flickering portal.

Wow-

Just one step.

No matter how big your heart is at breaking up, the feeling of becoming a completely different landscape in just one step does not even give you a chance to regret the breakup.

The design of the inside of the building where the transmission device is located is not much different, but unlike the building in Veles Lake, which felt somewhat peaceful, it felt like everyone was busy all the time.

And, if it is not different from my memory from the previous episode, the atmosphere of the city will be no different from the feeling in the building.

A person who works hard every minute to improve his or her achievements as a wizard, and a person who stays in the laboratory day and night to research new magic.

Everyone does different things, but everyone is the same in that they lead busy lives.

The city is busy and sleepless, surrounded by colorful lights even at night thanks to the state-of-the-art magic tools installed on a trial basis. It was Clever.

◆

When we arrived at the magic tower and waited for the message to be sent through the delivered method, a man dressed like a butler came and guided us.

Flora and Asil, who seemed to be new to the Magic Tower, looked around and showed interest in the mysterious objects installed in the Magic Tower, while the man simply guided them by answering the questions that followed.

After walking longer than expected, the man stopped in front of a door.

"The lady is waiting."

"... Lady?"

"Yes. The message is already in, so just knock and enter."

"No, that's... Ha. I understand."

I thought it was just a request from the wizard of the Magic Tower, but it turned out to be a 'lady'.

I haven't heard in the guild that the client is a noble?

As I said before, matters involving nobles can easily become troublesome. That's why I try not to get involved as much as possible.

But this is how a relationship arises.

They said they had already sent the message, so turning back now will not solve the problem.

I made up my mind and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The informal way of speaking is very natural. He appears to be a high-ranking noble. A very big problem occurred.

In any case, I was planning to just listen to the story and decline the request, but if the opponent was a high-ranking noble, I would be accused of doing that. No, even if it is not recognized by you, your subordinates will show 'excessive loyalty'.

I sighed inwardly, opened the door, and entered the room.

A female wizard with flaming red hair tied into twin tails greeted us sitting at her desk.

"Welcome. "You are the adventurers who solved the problem that occurred in Lake Veles, right?"

However, the first question was a little strange.

"Is it an adventure that solves a problem? "We came because we said we were looking for an adventurer who killed a special monster?"

"Ah. Okay. You put it that way in the guild, right? That's right. "If I had solved the problem, I would have defeated the boss monster or whatever."

That is... Is that right?

It seemed like quite a leap, but in the end, it turned out to be true, so I decided not to say anything. I don't really want to complain to high-ranking nobles.

I wanted to do that.

The client, who was examining us, began to look at me closely. To be exact, my body.

"You. What is your relationship with the White Falcon Knights?"

"Yes?"

I was wondering what was happening out of the blue, and in that short moment, the client's suspicions expanded in a direction beyond imagination.

"I definitely only requested it from the Adventurer's Guild. It's clear that he's an adventurer. There's no way he's a knight. So how did you get that equipment? No way, stealing... "

"Now, waits a minute!"

Now that I look at it, I don't think I'm looking at my body, but at the equipment I'm wearing.

After hearing the muttering, I recognized that what I was wearing was the equipment of the White Falcon Order, but no matter how I looked at it, it didn't look like a member of the Order, so they seemed to suspect that I had stolen it.

I legitimately helped the Knights with their work and received compensation.

Out of frustration, I explained in detail the process of obtaining the equipment. Fortunately, the misunderstanding was quickly resolved.

"Sorry. "I was mistaken."

When the client realized that his thoughts were wrong, he quickly admitted his mistake and apologized. Knowing how to admit a mistake was like being in the top 1% of nobles.

"Really. I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Luca Marti. Furthermore, I have been close friends with Silen Lame, who gave you that equipment, since I was young. Please take care of me."

"My name is Marti... ?"

Flora was surprised after hearing the client's self-introduction.

Asil, who was next to Flora, asked a question in a low voice.

"Are you famous?"

I was also curious about this, so I pricked up my ears and overheard. It's the same party anyway, so what's wrong with eavesdropping?

"It is one of the three major ducal families of the empire. Considering the authority of the empire, it can be said that this family is more powerful than most royal families."

Of course, since I could hear it in a quiet lab, the client would also be able to hear it.

I don't know if Flora expressed it that way intentionally, but it seems that her client felt better after hearing her words that lifted his family name.

"Oh. What do you know? Commoners often think it's just a great family and only know it based on its level. Are you also from a noble family?"

"Lol... "

Flora tried to laugh it off, and her client didn't really care either.

"Okay. That Marti is right. Even adventurers know how great I am, but that guy is a wizard... "

The client, Luca, grumbled about something unknown for a while and then got to the point.

"What I want to entrust to you is an investigation."

"Investigation?"

I have very bad memories of the combination of investigation request made by a nobleman.

Can't we just not do it? It won't work. Damn.

"The place I want to request is Magnus Academy. Do you know where it is?"

"I think I saw it on the map. Isn't it the city right next door? The distance wasn't that long."

"Yes? So, I was originally going to go and investigate on my own, but something urgent suddenly came up. Instead, I was looking for someone to investigate, and if it's someone that Silen approves of, I can trust him. "I was lucky."

"However... What should I investigate?"

"Well, I don't know either."

"Yes?"

"I came here after hearing a rumor that there was something strange there, but I couldn't figure out exactly what was strange. ... Like Lake Veles, which you solved."

"It's not like we noticed any problems and solved them."

"But it doesn't matter. They say luck is also a skill, right? I don't know what the problem is anyway, so I should at least try to rely on that luck and do something. "I'll leave the investigation method up to you, so just give it a try."

Academy... Academy... Suddenly a good idea occurred to me.

I gathered my thoughts a little and said.

"All right. Since you said you would leave the method to me, can I ask you a favor?"

"Good. "Tell me anything."

"We want to conduct research while taking classes directly at the academy."

"It's not a very difficult request. Let me take lectures in my name... "What?"

For the first time, Luca's voice was filled with doubt.

It wasn't a difficult request, but he looked like he couldn't understand why he was asking for something like that.

But for me, it was a very natural request from the moment I found out that my destination was the academy.

Did I tell you? I will raise my skill level no matter what.

And the Academy is a better place than anywhere else to do high-level crafts at low level levels.

Shit.
