NOVEL NEXT chapter 34
34 – Childhood Friend Hero’s Journey (7) – Meeting
A drinking party with Rize after a long time.
Lise asked me about the former party members.
To ask the academy if it is possible to recruit a teacher like me.
Maybe because they were all members of the warrior party, they seemed to think they were all great people.
I told Rize all the facts.
Rize isn’t as great as you think.
In the process, we chatted happily for an hour, but…
“You roughly understand why I kicked out Mark and Mer, right?”
At this point, you should have understood it to some extent.
I hope you didn’t think of recruiting such party members as teachers.
“Roughly…”
Rize nodded to him with half-open eyes.
Is it because I drank at the bar for 2 hours?
A slightly drunk figure caught my eye.
“Are you drunk?”
He said he didn’t say it, but from my point of view, he was definitely drunk.
My eyes couldn’t focus, and my words were slurred.
So I tried to finish the story moderately…
“I’m not drunk…! Tell me about the next party member…”
Lise shook her head and said it was okay.
After talking like this, he seemed to be curious about the third party member as well.
“Hmm… Next party member? Next party member…”
Would you hang out with me a little longer?
Now that I’ve said that, it might be okay to tell you about the next party member.
“As you know, he is a former warrior and my master…”
This was a person that many people knew.
There is no problem in terms of product or skill.
A very great person, in fact, unlike the previous two, he is a person who has no grounds for speculation.
However, even this person cannot be recruited into the party after all.
“It’s already been 2 years since you passed away. Rize, you’re really drunk.”
Of course he died.
Well, it wasn’t a very interesting story.
Because he was such a master who lived like a hero and died like a hero.
And of course, this is a story that Rize knows…
Looking at this question, Rize seems to be quite drunk right now.
“Cool cool…”
Rise immediately drooped, afraid to speak.
I couldn’t help but fall asleep.
“Ehh… Should I carry it?”
I had no choice but to carry Rize on my back.
And I was going to Rize’s house…
I didn’t know Rize’s house, so he took me to a suitable inn.
The conversation with the classmate I hadn’t seen in such a long time came to an end.
It’s been a while since I confided in the stories of my old colleagues…
I feel it all over again. That I am no longer a warrior party.
Now I am just an academy professor.
From tomorrow, I will have to become an academy teacher again.
@ @ @
And the next day.
“Today, we start private lessons at the training center.”
I went to work at the academy and started teaching the students.
“What class are you having today? Mr. Alan.”
Perhaps it was because they went to the dungeon yesterday, the students looked pretty bright, they seemed very happy.
When they were summoned to the training center like this, they seemed to be looking forward to what kind of lessons they would receive.
As usual, I would have been sitting at the academy desk and studying boring theories, but it should be much more fun than doing those things.
“That’s a good question. What are you guys going to do from now on…”
Of course, my classes do not go against the expectations of those students.
I’m trying to teach something more practical and practical than theory.
Just like my teacher did to me.
“From now on, each of you will go through specialized training.”
In a way that maximizes each person’s potential.
“Special training?”
“What is that?”
“Hmm…”
As expected, each of the students reacted to the word specialized training, asking what it was.
I would like to explain a little to such students.
“It’s simple. From now on, it’s training in a way that fills in what you lack.”
This was the reason I took the students to the dungeon in the first place.
Like Master did to me, he first noticed what I lacked, and then took him to the dungeon to learn how to teach.
Me too. I entered the dungeon to notice that, and now I roughly noticed the students’ individual problems.
“Leiden first.”
First of all, in the case of Riden, he has a very good ability.
‘The ability to amplify.’ As an ability that amplifies all kinds of abilities.
Amplifies not only the abilities others cast on you, but also your own buffs.
And it doesn’t just stop at temporary buffs, it also applies to the vague item of growth.
If you look at it in that way, among the students, Liden has the most potential.
Riden did not have anyone to improve his ability.
“You haven’t been able to use your abilities properly yet. So, from today on, Liden, you will practice swordsmanship with me. I will definitely guide you.”
“Swordsmanship training…?”
“Okay. Follow me.”
That’s why I’m thinking of training Liden a little more.
Transcending halfway to perfection.
I was thinking of training in a way that makes the most of my amplification ability.
“And Seria.”
And the second is Seria.
Seria is a swordsman who uses the protection of five attributes.
Because it uses protection, it can attack more multi-dimensionally than normal swordsmen.
Moreover, Seria herself was a student who was very accomplished in terms of swordsmanship due to the influence of her own family.
At this point, if you look at her pure combat power, Seria is far superior to Riden.
However, I didn’t really like Seria even like this. Seria still didn’t know how to use divine protection.
“From now on, you will use overlapping blessings.”
“Nesting? How do you…?”
“I’ll let you know.”
Actually, divine protection is an ability of inferior quality compared to abilities.
If you compare it only with its own performance, its efficiency and well itself cannot match the ability.
Except for divine protection or special and heterogeneous protection, most of them are like that.
However, Gaho has its own strengths.
That is to use overlapping.
If Seria finds out she can do it, she can develop in an even greater way.
Since she has five divine protections, the level of difficulty must be very difficult, but I will try to help her with that part.
“And finally Luna…”
Lastly, about Luna…
“Hmm…”
“What’s wrong with Luna?”
Luna gave a look that something had happened, and she pointed towards the door.
When I followed Luna’s finger to the door like that.
“Hello, Mr. Alan. I am Luna’s temporary guardian from the Mage Tower.”
A woman dressed in a neat wizard’s suit greeted me.
“Ah… I see.”
A temporary guardian of the Magic Tower?
Anyway, he seems to be in the same position as Luna’s secretary.
“But why me?”
So why is this kind of person coming to me?
I tilted my head.
“Can I take Luna-sama with me for a moment for work at the Mage Tower? Let’s leave early today…”
A temporary guardian who quietly asks me if I can take Luna with me for a moment.
“Ummm…Yes. What.”
Well, there’s a problem with the mage tower, but it can’t be helped.
I allowed it.
“Thank you. Then please suffer.”
The temporary guardian left the classroom with Luna on her back.
“What is urgent?”
Anyway, I continued the class.
Well, the Mage Tower must have its own business.
@ @ @
The secretary left the academy with Luna on her back.
Then we entered the Imperial City.
To meet someone who said he wanted to see Luna.
“Hmmm… So Finnya… Who is it?”
But Luna still doesn’t know who that person is.
There are not many people in the world who can summon Luna freely.
Luna was also the daughter of the Mage’s Tower, the owner of the Magic Tower.
She herself was called a talented wizard.
There were many people who wanted to meet her.
But at the same time, Luna is not such a light person.
She can’t summon Luna unless she’s a decent person.
That’s why Luna was wondering who would call her.
“Hmmm…So what’s going on? Daddy is here too…?”
If Finnya takes herself like this, she’s a pretty high-ranking person…
Did her own father, the Mage Lord, come? I thought it was that simple…
“Someone greater than the Lord of the Tower has arrived.”
Not even that.
“Hmm… Who is that?”
A person higher than the owner of the Magic Tower?
Is the emperor here too?
It was Luna who thought that way.
“Don’t be surprised to hear it. I’m a warrior.”
To Luna, Finnya told her who had come.
“…?”
When Luna heard that, she couldn’t help but be a little dazed.
“Why did the warrior…?”
Because it was so out of the blue.
Although it was not unheard of that it was because the title of a hero was great.
First of all, I was very curious about why the hero had summoned him.
“I don’t even know… I asked to be called… Anyway, where is it?”
And Finnya didn’t seem to know the reason yet…
I thought I’d find out soon.
“Ah…! That’s it.”
Where Finnya followed her eyes, there stood her golden-haired warrior.
That’s how Luna’s first meeting with the hero, Raina, took place.
