Became an Academy End-Of-Life Genius

Agnes – 4

In fact, there were a couple of things that were suspicious. In particular, the level of escort that Affin’s upper rank had was the same.

There were people who manipulated mana, but no one knew how to infuse color into that mana. That meant that there was not a single one of intermediate or higher prosecuting officers.

But if you ask if there are wizards, that’s not it either. Obviously, there was no wizard at the top of Affin.

Then, what on earth did he believe in when he went to the top activities? That was the tricky part. It felt like it was moved so weakly on purpose.

“Hey, didn’t you save us? I’m not ignorant of grace enough to dare to doubt the benefactor.”

Affin responded desperately with a look of regret. I glanced at him and looked at the personnel above.

Even if they had some pretty decent force, I’d be suspicious. We were defeated by a group of goblins, and we who defeated the group were obviously stronger than Affin’s superiors.

And it was almost nonsense to say that the person who handled the top had no intention of losing the goods to the powerful.

If you’re dealing with the top, you have to take risks and calculate the worst. It was a natural fact that even a country who had never dealt with the top knew.

“If you count things like that, I’m a colossus, so I was subcontracting to this small top?”

“What?”

I asked, unable to hide my confusion. It was because the story he uttered was half denying my common sense.

“Every time we think about the risk, we consider the worst case and minimize the loss. Isn’t it a very theoretical part?”

“It’s not natural either.”

“We can’t afford to do it while protecting everything that is obvious. We.”

Affin’s words were shocking. I didn’t quite understand what you meant by not being able to afford it. Affin looked at me and added.

“Intermediate or higher swordsman? Wizard? Okay. If I can hire them, I’d like to hire them. But what is the cost of hiring them? How do you make money while paying those costs?”

“……”

I closed my mouth. Come to think of it, the items that Affin’s party had were quite small because one top was embracing them.

Only a few people in one wagon. And a couple of swordsmen who can handle mana. If it’s shabby, you can say it’s infinitely shabby.

It was a mistake. I reminded myself that the world I lived in was where the nobles were in the first place.

Although 1 gold is a waste, it has a status that can be used lightly. It was also noble to use silver as if it were breathing.

Those with blue blood poured money into their bodies to maintain the integrity of other blood. It was such an honor.

I guess I got used to that honor without me knowing. Besides, since the place I was living in was the Iliad Academy, it was even easier to cause misunderstandings.

Most of the shops near the academy or the upper floors were probably famous. There was nothing different about the top near the winter castle.

It was not to be compared with this top, which Affin was subcontracting to.

Agnes poked him in the side from the side. Her eyes were burning. He kept staring at me.

“Stop it and go.”

I nodded my head without saying a word. Affin looked at me with strange eyes and smiled broadly when Agnes said that he would accompany me.

It was a shallow laugh. It was also the smile of the merchant.

Seeing you rejoice over small gains, I realized that I was wrong.

It’s because I’m so used to the body of a genius. As I have been working for a long time under the name of the Philasia family, I have come close to being a nobleman.

It wasn’t funny. I have lived on Earth for several decades. The memories of the past year of living as Deron Phylasia were much clearer.

Even his habit was suddenly following that of Philasia.

I stopped trying to fiddle with the handle of the sword unconsciously. The sword was broken, and there were no more swords in my scabbard.

It joined at the top and the movement speed was slowed down. This is because they repaired their wagon and put some items in our wagon.

Me and Agnes gladly gave up the carriage. After all, I had to be in the carriage to get tired, because there was nothing good about it.

Affin smiled broadly. He bowed his head several times saying that he would never forget the benefactors’ grace. Watching my head go down over and over again, I thought about how many times I had bowed my head so far.

…as if it had never been.

It was almost intimidating when I asked for it, and it was a move I was confident I could achieve. Sometimes, even if he wasn’t sure, he didn’t bow his head.

It was instinctive. My body definitely refused to bow down. It was a noble move, and I took it for granted.

Even thinking about it now, it wasn’t wrong, but I couldn’t deny that the mindset was clearly different.

If I played a nobleman when I first possessed it, now I feel like a complete nobleman.

There was nothing like fighting to shake off such thoughts. I looked around. It was from the thought that there might be goblins on the way.

Kirruk!

A familiar cry was heard. I immediately turned my head to see where the sound was coming from.

It was a goblin. Their eyes fluttered slightly. It was as if I was being chased by someone, and my breathing was even rough.

“I’ll probably need to take a look.”

I muttered a little and moved my feet. It was after pointing the direction to Agnes with his eyes.

puck!

Since there was no sword, they had to fight with their fists. Although it was not as powerful as a sword, it was not to the extent that it could not deal with goblins.

Blood spattered on his hands. He couldn’t help but fight with his fists, but he couldn’t hide the disgusting feeling with his face.

The sensation of piercing the flesh was definitely different from when it was cut with a sword. He felt disgust, but he did not stop his fists.

Boo-woong!

The goblin’s dagger is aiming at my stomach and rushing towards me. The day is blunt, perhaps because of looting. It was not to the extent that a body that had reached the highest level could not stop it.

You can ignore it, but avoid it.

‘Dirty.’

The poison on the tip of the dagger is impressive. The thought of poisoning with the intelligence of a goblin. Did I underestimate their intelligence?

After dodging the dagger, he stomped on another goblin and popped his skull. At the same time, he raises his fist while carrying an auror.

Kwagga River!

The ground cracked with a pounding sound. A mere auror can create this level of power.

The goblins’ eyes flickered. I licked my tongue and wiped the blood off my hands.

“Even if you use the Auror, you can’t stop the bleeding.”

It was a pity. While I was shaking my hands, the goblins didn’t look back and started running away.

I didn’t have to catch them. Instead, he kept track of the location and direction the goblins were moving. I’ll try to follow up after a while.

Awkward!

Then I heard a voice next to me. I turned my head to the side.

A goblin pierced through an ice spear catches his eye. Ice spikes protruded from his body. It looked cruel. It was also a new technology that Agnes came up with.

“I think I can double its power if I just touch it.”

Agnes said with a twinkle in her eyes. I nodded. The new technology she showed off certainly had that much power.

Kang!

Ice awl hits the shield. A couple of goblins blocked the spear with their hands on the goblin’s shoulder with the shield, then laughed.

Kirruk!

It was a bad laugh. He looked like he wanted to kill him right away, but I stood still and watched the ice pick.

Light slowly leaked from the ice pick.

Whoops!

Small thorns were scattered in all directions with the explosion that occurred in an instant. All goblins who missed the shield due to the explosion were pierced by thorns and died.

It was the perfect technique to break the guard. The consumption of power would not have been that great. It was also a technology specialized for many-to-one.

Like a fragmentation grenade, the more thorns scattered like a grenade, the more powerful it would be.

While Agnes slaughtered all the goblins, I opened my senses and checked where the goblins had moved. A cave not far from here.

‘It’s impossible to come and go.’

If it were only me and Agnes, I could have gone there without any problems, but now I was with Affin’s Sang-dan.

There’s no need to risk the top by moving in the yard that might be inside the cave where the goblins escaped.

I checked the location of the cave and joined at the top.

Affin greeted us with her eyes wide open. His face was full of smiles. Maybe it’s because we killed all the goblins.

“Thank you so much! You did a great job with me!”

As Affin said that, she fumbled through her sleeve and pulled out a silver coin. It’s not a lot of money from my point of view, but it’s a huge amount for them.

Affin was paying Agnes for that amount of money. Her eyes widened.

“You don’t have to give it to me!”

Agnes waved her hand as if nothing had happened. A group of goblins wouldn’t pose a threat, so it’s only natural for her.

But if you’ve been on the streets for a few years, it’s simply not a big deal, right?

“Of course it was something I had to do, and it didn’t take too much effort. There’s no need to thank each and every one of these things.”

“No, but if you don’t receive anything like this, we’re very sorry…”

Affin scratched his head as if in trouble. I thought they were trying to use us, but looking at them like that, it doesn’t seem like that.

He is a confusing character in many ways.

“It was the direction we had to go anyway. We were moving together on the way, and those goblins were the monsters we had to catch anyway. Regardless of you.”

“Still… I see.”

Looking at Agnes’ stubborn expression, Affin sighed heavily. He seems to realize that she won’t take the coin, no matter what.

“Then eat this.”

Affin came back to me as Agnes, who puts in the absolute sword, and magically washes away the blood on his fists.

He had a small pocket in his hand.

I checked the bag and found five loaves of rye bread. It looks like bread made in the capital city.

“It’s a bread from the capital. It’s a pretty famous house, so your taste buds will agree.”

“Ah… I really don’t mind giving it to you.”

“We can’t do it because we’re sorry. You don’t take money, so please accept this. Don’t you have to take care of your face?”

Seeing Affin’s mischievous smile, Agnes took a piece of bread from her pocket and took a bite.

“…It’s delicious.”

“Yes?”

Agnes takes one more bite of the bread. I watched him for a moment without a word as he crumpled the bread and smiled.

Because her smile was so familiar.
