Unsold Slaves Returned as Heroes - Chapter 49



49. A professor who is a slave trader, hurts his pride…

Felia’s palms gripping my arms were soft. It was definitely her hand that had held her pen all her life.

It was so small that I couldn’t wrap my arms around it even if I stretched it all out, but the power of magical power that suddenly invaded through it was like that of a gigantic monster.

“… Hmm.”

Felia’s magic circuit wriggles like an earthworm, and it seeps into her heart in an instant.

My heart beats like it’s going to explode at the amount of calories that exceeds the limit. Brain cells scream at the knowledge they do not understand.

I feel dizzy. I desperately endured the feeling of vomiting rising up my esophagus.

Do wizards always feel this way?

To be honest, it was a bit overwhelming.

No, it’s a lot harder than I thought.

“Ha, what are you going to take if you can’t stand this much? Hey you bastard! Only the mouth survives.”

“Skill.”

I had to find a way to respond before Pelia’s magical power exploded my body from the inside out.

“… What is it, why do you want to die? Hey, don’t play around! Even after writing the 6th tier, you’re not really a wizard? Hey, hey!!”

Felia shouted something in bewilderment, but he had no time to reply.

I found a phrase along the way.

――――――――――――――――

[Slavery] Level has risen to 2.

Current use count: 2

Cooldown: 22 hours

――――――――――――――――

Did your level rise because of the increased experience?

Okay, this will do.

Enable slavery. I activated Yuri’s high-level blessing, [Tranquility], On me.

Four magic circles are drawn on the floor. Bright beams of light rained down on me.

“Whoa.”

My heartbeat has calmed down. She took a slow breath and picked her up again.

“Uh, how did you… ? Ha, really.”

Slowly the pain lessened. I could feel Pelia’s mana flowing steadily through me.

After all of her processes were over, I tried to clench her fists. It felt like there was one more vein in her body through which other than blood flowed vigorously.

Her head still stung a little.

I looked down at Pelia.

“Originally, was it okay for the magic circuit implantation to be carried out at random like this? I knew that the sympathy between the hosts had to be raised and a lot of pre-processing was needed.”

“No, I thought you were lying…. Are you really new? Wait. I will arrange the circuit for you.”

As Felia worked on my arm, I felt a prick of pain as if doing physical therapy. After a while, she felt much better.

“Try it.”

As I circulated the mana lightly, a strange and complex line was drawn on her arm. It was like the design of a building.

“I definitely got it.”

“It’s absurd. Hey wait First, let’s do some research on you. What are you doing?”

“Nothing. I have an urgent appointment. And in the future.”

She lowered her head and made eye contact with Felia’s turquoise eyes.

“Call me Professor.”

Felia pursed her lips.

“… Can’t you just call me! Professor!”

I walked down the aisle with her Pelia behind her. The sound of her heels echoed between her walls and ceiling.

Exit the gates of the main arena.

The white sunlight tickled my eyes. In the meantime, she was

Yuri spotted me and a smile spread across her face, wagging her fluffy tail.

“Brother, congratulations!”

“Have you seen all the lectures?”

“Yes. Oh, that was cool….”

Yuri shyly grabbed my collar.

“Let’s go. There are many places to visit.”

“Yes!”

I pulled Yuri’s timid hand. Yuri, who opened her mouth for a moment in surprise, smiled briskly at me.

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.”

After losing the match and returning to her private room, Felia Alencia immediately immersed herself in a bathtub full of ice water.

But she didn’t think the heat of her hot body would subside like a furnace.

It was because she handed over 20% of her magic circuits to the slave trader.

As it was designed with a perfect structure and erected like an elaborate building, it was forcibly deformed and removed, so the side effects were natural.

I had already prepared to pass the magic circuit. It was from when the match was established.

She doesn’t know what additional demands the slave trader will make of her if she doesn’t pay the price immediately in case of defeat.

“Huh.”

I know. It’s an excuse.

To be honest, Pelia was happy right now.

She longed for someone to take away her magic from the back of her heart, just like now. It was because she clearly felt that she was losing herself as time went by.

But she couldn’t give up her magic on her own. A wizard who has opened the door to the next hierarchy even once is addicted to the pleasure and cannot stop. The higher up you are, the more so.

As she climbs the hierarchy, she loses herself and becomes obsessed with eccentric goals.

Like the emperor of an empire.

It literally goes crazy.

In the case of Pelia, she became obsessed with high stimuli maniacally. Both physical and mental.

At least, she tended to suppress herself and restrain herself. Although she was annoyed with everything she did.

“Still, she has lost this much of her magic circuit.”

At least until I die, I won’t reach the 8th tier.

In the first place, it was also known that it was an area that humans could not reach.

Felia was always scared.

She fears losing herself and being eaten by her magic. In the end, I was afraid that it would become a non-human weapon.

Because fighting is scary.

Because war is scary.

I was appalled when the slave trader lectured on such a theory. Until then, she thought of him as a mere idiot.

That is the case with the tribe of slave traders.

He is only strong with the weak and servile to the strong. Since they do not have the armed forces of their own, they depend on mercenaries and make money only through illegal means, so they have no common sense or morality.

Despicable and despicable guys with no strength.

He was different.

Understanding the dangers of magic. He put forward a theory that won’t affect the world while making sure it wins.

He was not quite an extraordinary Chinese character.

So I didn’t believe in the slightest that he couldn’t even become a wizard, so I was truly surprised when he almost died during the implantation of magic circuits.

No matter how she used the blessing herself, if Felia didn’t respond desperately at that moment, something big would have happened.

“… I’m glad you’re alive.”

Ha, anyway, isn’t it true that magic is a crap?

To lose to a guy like that. Hurt self-esteem.

Slave trader bastard, slave trader.

Professor, slave trader.

Felia plunged her head into her bathtub and spurted out her lather with her mouth.

“Hmmm. Master, did the lecture go well? I need to prepare now.”

Tia was in her kitchen with her apron on. She had teamed up with the graduate student research department because no other students were giving culinary science presentations.

“The recipe is done, the tools are checked, the spices are all there, and the base is ready. I need to bring out the main ingredient.”

Tia went into the storage room behind her kitchen. She was in order to get the protein that will be the main ingredient of today’s dish.

“Uh… ?”

Tia gasped in surprise at the sight that caught her eye.

The inside of the warehouse was in a mess.

All food ingredients, from fish to cabbage, were shredded and thrown on the floor, and none of them were usable.

“What, why are you like this?”

Tia gritted her teeth and used detection magic. It was at this spot that she committed a rowdy act, and she found no trace of it.

As a good wizard, I found a clue in the very weak residue.

“What?”

Tia couldn’t believe her results and checked again several times.

But the result did not change.

There were no other signs. Only one person broke into this warehouse. It was clear that it was a solo crime.

What was in Tia’s hand was a faint blue, freezing aura.

“Luca… ?”

Tia called her name in vain.

―The 4th Dalian! Coffin of Earth Coffin of Great Wind !

Jukemak stood tall in the outdoor arena for spectators to pass by and watch. When the end of the long sword was bumped against the opponent to show respect, the sparring began.

“Jukemak! Hey, cheer up!”

Yuri cheers with a nervous face.

After a few turns, Jukemak’s sword slashes the protection of the opposing knight. When the attack hit, the knight couldn’t stand it and fell, hitting her buttock.

―The winner, the coffin of the earth !

We applauded generously for the neat victory against the 3rd year of the 3rd grade. Jukemak returned to me and bent down as he was.

“Oops… I’ll go all the way out… ! Professor, Yuri, how was it… ?”

“I really felt your skills! Great.”

“Heh heh, it’s all thanks to Master Lucas’ good teaching… !”

Zukmak is constantly receiving sword instruction from Luca. It seems to have had a good effect.

“By the way, Professor.”

Jukemak put his face on me.

“Did Master Lucas have any troubles lately?”

“Troublesome? Did you ever feel like you couldn’t concentrate on tutoring?”

“Let’s come against it. There was too much spirit. You seemed overly anxious. That way, things are going to be ruined.”

“I haven’t heard anything. Student Yuri, do you know anything?”

“No, I haven’t been able to talk much lately either….”

“Okay. I guess you weren’t wrong. I’ll check it out, Jukmak. Good game, good job.”

“Heh heh heh, nothing… Let’s not come!”

I patted Zhukmak on the shoulder and decided to move on to the next student presentation.

“Jukemak-nim, you must have trained hard. You seem to be much faster than usual when you raise your sword.”

“There is a sense that only prosecutors feel.”

“Really? Amazing…. I caught it a while ago, but I’m not sure. I’m still looking for what subject to take for the graduation exam….”

“You don’t want to learn healing anymore, do you?”

“Oh, yes.”

From noble mtl dot com

Yuri’s ears drooped slightly.

Both Luca and Tia want subjects other than swords and magic, but it seems that the reason is that they are tired of it rather than hating it.

But I get the feeling that Yuri is clearly rejecting the healing arts. Although her specialty, martial arts, is not rejected.

‘… Hmm.’

If you think about it, the three of them used swordsmanship, black magic, and martial arts as their main skills in the original work. It’s the dark magic of the lich. It’s the same as magic and chest.

‘Where did the glass healing art come from?’

The Demon Beast King in the original novel had never used healing techniques. He was a person who had trained martial arts to the limit.

It’s not unusual for them to do anything because they are so versatile. Actually, Tia’s cooking skills are already at a considerable level.

I don’t even think that the three people and the original Four Heavenly Kings are the same person.

“There is still plenty of time, so let’s think slowly.”

“Still, I don’t want to hold my brother’s ankle…. What if I fall into Opticoolum alone?”

“hahahaha, that can’t be. I trust you.”

“Ah… Neet!”

Yuri replied energetically.

I fully believe in these three people. Seeing the presentation of the Earth Hall students, I think that each subject was well chosen.

However, the princess Astley still takes a bit.

Astley hasn’t decided on a subject yet. She did not participate in the recital, even at the silver cheongje.

“Whose presentation is next?”

“It’s Tia’s turn.”

“Ah, Tia…. Culinary science, right?”

“Yes. It is said that they will develop and introduce a menu with new buffs in collaboration with the research students. It’s time to go hungry, so let’s try it.”

“Yes, I’m looking forward to it.”

I could feel Yuri sneaking up on my collar.

“Today too… Tia and….”
