Episode 328 Choi
Seo-yoon was staring blankly at the door where Kim Sun-woo, who had left to talk on the phone for a while, had disappeared.
I don’t know what happened, but the expression on his face the moment I answered the phone was still clear in my mind.
Although he smiled belatedly and gave off the nuance that it was nothing, he couldn’t help but feel unnecessarily worried because he clearly saw his expression, which had hardened for a short time.
“…Who is it that makes your expression hard?”
Doesn’t sound like a good call.
Until now, I had never seen a senior answer the phone with a hard expression on his face.
what kind of phone is that?
Looking at the phone number on the smart student notebook, it seemed clear that it was an international call.
“Country code…
Seoyoon Choi naturally remembered the country code he saw on the screen.
Just in case, he turned on his smart student notebook and searched for the number he had seen on the Internet.
and a floating window.
“……japan?”
The phone call to Kim Seon-woo was from Japan.
It was a little unexpected because I remember that Kim Seon-woo had not had any special exchanges with Japan until now.
Even if it was an international call, I thought it would be one of the five most advanced countries in magic.
“Mmm.”
Is there any reason to contact Japan?
Have you ever received a request for support from the government, like the last time in Nepal?
Come to think of it, there have been vicious rumors that a plague is circulating in Japan recently.
Choi Seo-yoon, who continued to reason, stopped thinking.
I don’t think it’s good to go after yourself.
Of course, there are a lot of things I’m curious about about you
, but… I’m sure you’ll tell me directly someday.
While I was obsessed with so many questions, Kim Seon-woo, who had gone out to talk on the phone, came back.
Choi Seo-yoon blinked and looked at his face.
Kim Seon-woo also met her gaze and opened his mouth.
“…What’s wrong with your eyes? What’s going on?”
” ah.”
Seoyoon Choi smiled shyly for a moment.
“it’s nothing. But who is this call from?”
“It’s a call from a foreign guild.”
“A foreign guild?”
Kim Seon-woo nodded with a relaxed expression as if it was nothing.
“Well, I’ll treat you well after graduation, so come to my guild. It’s a common thing.”
Kim Seon-woo said as if it was really no big deal.
She wondered if it was true, but Kim Seon-wu’s hardened expression after answering the phone
flooded her mind again. Seoyoon Choi thought for a moment and then
nodded.
After completing all classes and personal training.
Back at the dormitory, I was sitting on the sofa fixing the trap spells that I couldn’t even finish.
After holding on to this for a few days, I became quite proficient at drinking.
The proficiency of [Understanding Spells]
was rapidly increasing, and the term to complete the Spell Modifications was getting shorter and shorter.
“…Seriously, should I learn some assistive systems?”
I think I really have some talent in this field.
Since you can already deal with bondage-type magic, even if you learn a few phantom-type magic, the day will come when you will be able to use it…
right then.
Boooooong….
A message alarm went off in the smart student notebook.
[Are you okay this Saturday?]
It was a message from Ren.
It was to propose a date to read the ‘Ambassador’s Diary’ that he had told me about today.
In fact, I didn’t even know what the Nikari-ryu ambassador was doing, so I tried to refuse it because I was afraid that the lie would be exposed.
But Ren suddenly said that.
‘There is a possibility that the ambassador’s journal
contains information related to Jin Chun-wu.’
…Cheonwoo Jin.
Perhaps Ren was telling the story after knowing that the Lun clan had a deep kinship with Jin Chun-wu.
And according to my memory, he also had a bad feeling towards Jin Chun-wu.
“Hmm……
If the ambassador’s journal contains information related to Jin Cheon-wu, it seems that there is an incident hidden that I don’t know about.
Jin Chun-wu There is no place where this guy has not been stabbed.
[Yes, let’s go on Saturday.]
Knock tok. I sent a message and got an immediate reply.
[Then, I’ll see you at the Nagoya Chubu Immigration Gate at 1:30 pm on Saturday. Sasook.]
I blankly looked at the message.
Sasuk.
“…It’s really burdensome.”
It’s still North Korea to hear the servant’s voice.
I typed the message again.
[I’m talking about it now, but I’m not a formal disciple of the Nakiri Ryu. The only thing I learned from Genya is instantaneous acceleration. So there is no need to call me Sasuk.
]
The reply
arrived in less than 10 seconds.
[Still, since he received the teachings of the ambassador, it is suitable for me.]
“…Do whatever you want.”
It’s 1:00 PM on a Saturday. I arrived at the immigration portal gate in Incheon to meet Ren as promised.
When we arrived at the place, many people had gathered for departure.
Travelers who show off their travel mood and office workers for overseas business trips.
But no one recognizes me.
This is because he wore a bucket hat deeply pressed down and covered his face with a mask to avoid any possible interest.
Of course, I will leave the country as ‘Kim Seon-woo’, but it doesn’t matter since going on an overseas trip in this world is not a problem.
“I will check your passport.”
I handed out my passport for immigration to the staff.
The employee looked at the photo and hardened his expression for a moment.
“…Kim Seon-woo? Let me check your face for a moment.”
At the staff’s words, I took off my hat and mask.
The employee who checked my face stared at me.
I was worried that he would make a fuss by pretending to know, but after getting his stamp stamped, he coolly handed out his passport with an expressionless face.
Well, many star wizards use the immigration gate as if they were going in and out of my house, but what am I supposed to do?
That’s how I passed through the gate.
Flash!
I slowly looked at the scenery that changed in an instant.
[Nagoya Chubu Immigration Gate]
Although it is an island country right next to Korea, I felt somehow exotic.
Is it because there are many foreigners?
” hmm.”
After going through immigration, someone approached me silently.
“Sir.”
«..2”
When I turned my head, Elin, who had her face perfectly covered with a hat and mask like me, bowed her head and approached me.
I stared at her for a moment, feeling bewildered.
why is he here
“…What? Not. Hmmm. Why are you here?”
Elin smiled at my question.
“I have been waiting to see you off.”
“…What about Han Se-jin’s escort?”
Elin confidently answered my question.
“Oh, it’s a two-day vacation. Han Se-jin told me to rest.”
…There’s also a vacation.
I looked at her with bewildered eyes and asked what I had been curious about earlier.
“But how did you know this place?”
“ah! Ren told me first. That you may need my help. I accepted right away because the officer was also coming.”
…help?
Wasn’t it just to check the journal?
Then Elin looked around and frowned.
“By the way, where is this guy, Ren
?”
“hello.”
I heard Ren’s voice from somewhere.
Ren, who covered his face with a hat and sunglasses, was approaching me with a smile.
I came here with my face covered so as not to be seen, but the three of them are wearing the same look, so it is rather more noticeable ironic situation.
“How have you been, sir?”
Ren nodded at me. The
courteous look of an S-class wizard toward me is
something I can’t get used to.
“Hmm.”
Then Elin narrowed her eyes and looked at Ren. Ren met Elin’s gaze and fired at him.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“No, it’s the first time I’ve seen you like this. But you really call the servant a sasuk.”
“It’s just setting an example. Aren’t you also setting an example for the servant?”
Ren turned his gaze to me.
“Then there are many eyes to see, but we move right away.”
“I will.”
So we moved along with the Japanese local guide (?) Ren.
“wren. But where are we going?”
Elin, who had been following quietly, asked.
“Gifu Prefecture. There is the headquarters of our faction over there.”
“…Gifu prefecture?
Elin muttered with an unfamiliar expression.
Ren didn’t answer and continued walking.
After some time, we got through the gate and arrived at our destination.
What caught my eye was a typical rural landscape with lots of green light and lots of mountains.
“oh. the air is nice The mana concentration is also thick.”
“be careful. Is this area a monster field?”
As in any other country, there is a high probability that monsters will appear in mountainous areas.
Monsters in Japan are nicknamed ‘yokai’ because there are many monsters with unique appearances that cannot be seen in other countries.
Another unique thing is that historical sites are often found.
As I looked around with curious eyes, Ren looked at me and said,
“Is it your first time, Sasook?”
For a short time, I pounded the calculator in my head.
“…it’s the first time.”
Rather than clumsily pretending to know,
this would be better.
“okay.”
Ren nodded without thinking.
After that we climbed the mountain.
While looking at the beautiful scenery and feeling strange, some temples began to appear.
They were temples unique to Japan that cannot be seen in Korea.
Ren followed my gaze to the temple and said.
“The Onmyoji clan resides around me
.”
“The Onmyoji Clan?”
I’ve heard it in passing.
I thought it was a clan that could prophesy living in Japan.
However, as generations passed, the power of prophecy weakened, and I heard that now they are no different from ordinary people.
Anyway, in the original, I skipped over it without much thought, but hearing it myself feels a little different.
“Yes, we, Nakiri Ryu, live with the Onmyoji clan. It’s a relationship where we help each other.”
Every time I discover a setting I didn’t know, I feel something subtle.
At that moment, Ren stopped.
“This is the building of the Nakiri school.”
The place we arrived at was a shabby old building.
I don’t think it’s a space where people can live that looks like it’s going to collapse anytime soon.
“Are you living here alone?”
“That’s right. From the looks of it, it’s pretty sturdy.”
That time when I was feeling so strange and looked around.
“Is it Ren?”
I heard a voice that felt old from somewhere.
Although it was in Japanese, thanks to the benefit of an outsider, I was able to understand the meaning inside.
When I turned my head, an old man in traditional Japanese clothing was walking toward me.
He is a man with an unusual aura.
Would you say it’s a little different from a wizard?
“hello. old man.”
Ren bowed his head and greeted me in Japanese.
The old man nodded and looked at me.
“…Are these the guests you mentioned last time?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
said Ren.
Then, after thinking about it, he looked at me and spoke in Korean.
“Ah, this is Gensaku Abeno, the onmyoji of this village.”
Abeno Gensakura….
It’s the first time I’ve heard of this name.
“Nice to meet you.”
I activated the outsider’s benefit and spoke in Japanese.
It was probably the same pronunciation and tone as the locals.
Then, Ren and Elin made faces of surprise for a moment.
But Gensaku still looked at me with expressionless eyes and replied.
“Nice to meet you.”
…something about this person is unusual
.
My intuition is telling me that the person in front of me is not normal.
Just in case, I used [Character Detection] on the opponent in front of me.
[Cannot use ‘person detection’.]
What is it?
Regressed extras become geniuses
