I Became a Shaman in a Fantasy World - Chapter 20



Only Noblemtl

#20 The complicated world is complicated here too (2)

I searched the entire mountain and dug the ground.

The war was so fierce that skeletons were found in many places.

They said they had been recovering after the war ended, but there were still a lot of them.

It was inevitable since it was impossible to dig up everything.

Only after the souls’ orders were over could we enter the village.

“So, you’re saying you’re taking the Knights Templar exam?”

“Oh, that’s right!”

A young man about my age swallowed nervously.

People were gathered around and watching the scene.

As soon as I entered the village, I laid out a mat.

It’s already the second day since I started yesterday.

Word of mouth must have spread, as many people gathered.

Where there are many people, there are many stories.

Among them, there may be some cases that require the help of a shaman.

In this young man’s case, he came to have his fortune told.

“Hmm…”

If you pass the Knights Templar exam, you will have good luck with finding a job.

In that case, we need to check if there is a Jeong Gwan-un···.

“There isn’t any, there isn’t any.”

“yes?”

Even if I looked hard, I couldn’t find any sign of luck for getting a job.

No, it was visible, but very faint.

This is how it usually goes.

“I can’t completely pass.”

“So…then?”

“I think I’ll fall in the middle.”

I don’t know how the Knights Templar exams are conducted, but the final selection will be difficult.

But in this boy’s case, he was born an honest person.

Although I didn’t have any special luck or fortune, I was destined to live a good life.

“If you keep working hard, you’ll get it in a few years.”

Although I haven’t had any luck with employment, I have had pretty good luck with my studies.

“The things you’ve built up over time will bear fruit. Don’t try to see results in a short period of time, but work hard consistently.”

If you look at the four pillars of destiny, it often comes out as I just said.

We all have had this experience.

A fortune-telling book that is vaguely interpreted like catching clouds in the sky.

Except in special cases, it is normal to live like this.

Since good fortune and bad fortune are not that common, if you make the effort you need, life will work out.

In an instant, the crowd split apart.

“You…you’re a wizard!”

“This time there are knights too!”

“The wizard is coming again…”

A group of people dressed in robes and armor walked among the people.

“Huh.”

He was a man who looked to be in his 40s.

“You may not know me, but I am a wizard belonging to the Barondom of Thiebaud.”

The wizard glared as if asking if I should hurry and say hello.

Just by looking at this old man, you can tell he smells like a real person.

“Since you said you could see the future, I’d like to ask you a few questions.”

Maybe it’s hard to ask···?

After laying out the mat and having my fortune told, two more magicians came to visit me in addition to this person.

One about an hour ago.

One before that.

They were all people with a scent of truth that would disturb everyone’s fortune telling.

The first wizard who arrived caused a ruckus.

I told him exactly what was going on because he was so unlucky, and he got really angry.

After that, all the magicians who smelled of the truth were summoned.

To the inspiration of Clocell.

“If you don’t get it right, you will be dragged in for the crime of insulting a wizard…”

The wizard’s face turned pale as he was about to speak.

“Huh…!…This much mana..!”

Mana was seen surrounding the wizard.

It was a pure mana that could not be compared to the energy this old man had.

The wizard, who had been looking around anxiously, opened his eyes wide and got up from his seat in a hurry.

“I’ll…come back again!”

In the direction I was running, I saw Elder Clocell talking to two wizards with their heads bowed.

You should have sat down carefully before sitting down.

“Okay, next guest!”

This time it’s a knight.

That too with a very dirty appearance.

Vulgar and mean.

He was a knight who was born lazy and had an authoritarian personality.

Should I say that I was born with good parents?

It seems like he came to see me because he was curious, but he didn’t even bother to sit down.

“A member of the Knights’ Order under the direct command of the Barondom…”

Shudder.

I don’t know why these gentlemen boast about their affiliations like this.

They seem to be saying that it is an honor, but judging by the way this gentleman is flinching, it seems like he has been called.

“…The commoner is lucky.”

What on earth were you trying to do to me that you’re calling me lucky?

What would have happened if I had gone alone without my mentors?

Having a social status wasn’t as easy as I thought.

Even if a magician or knight who is treated as a semi-noble appears like that, the common people cannot really protest.

That was the law here.

“Tsk tsk… Next!”

“I am a farmer. I came here because there was a land where no crops grew.”

***

An inn with a large building.

Behind this inn, famous as the best in the baronial domain, a spectacular scene was unfolding.

The knights and wizards were standing in a row, bowing their heads.

They were being admonished.

Even in such a situation, they could not express any complaints.

That would be the case, because the two people in front of them were so great that they couldn’t even breathe.

How shocked I was when I found out the identity.

“You said you belong to the Barondom?”

“Yes! That’s right!”

Among the knights who had been observing, the one who seemed to be the leader of the group answered.

It was a restrained appearance with a strong military discipline.

“Do you know who I am?”

“Yes! Klaus Farah, hero of the Continental War and sword master…”

“stop.”

Paramon cut off the knight’s words.

“It’s been a long time since I abandoned my surname, so don’t mention it.”

“Yes, I understand!”

“Yes, you are a member of the knights’ order under the Baron’s direct command?”

“Yes! That’s right!”

“Is the commander of the knights now Vanel?”

The reporter’s expression brightened when he heard a familiar name.

Even though I was suddenly called here, if I reveal who I am, I will be able to get out of here safely.

The knight answered proudly.

“Chief Barnell is my uncle.”

“Huh? What’s your name?”

“My name is Marvellia Calf!”

Confidence filled Kalf’s face.

Even Paramon, who is called a hero, doesn’t know his own family line.

If he could convince them well, he might be able to punish the commoner who had put him through such hardship.

“Marvellia… I remember. That’s the family of that guy named Railer.”

“Yes, that’s right!”

A man named Railer was Kalf’s grandfather.

A knight who fought in the Continental War at a young age and made a name for himself.

His grandfather, who served in the Imperial Knights, was the person he respected the most.

At the following words, Kalf’s mouth fell open.

“That guy was so scared that I scolded him a lot.”

“…yes?”

“I remember you as a friend who worked hard.”

My grandfather was like the sky.

Who could say such a thing to his grandfather?

If it were normal, it would be something to challenge to a duel, saying you were insulted, but it was out of the question.

As far as Kalf knew, when his grandfather went to war, Paramon already held the position of Grand Master.

“It’s amazing that you’ve become a knight for generations.”

“Oh, thank you!”

Paramon stroked his chin and said as if he found it strange.

“But let me tell you…”

“yes!”

“When I was younger, whenever my seniors called me, I would bang my head against the wall…”

“Ugh…!”

“I guess the culture of the Knights Templar has changed these days?”

There was no time to refute.

As soon as Paramon finished speaking, the knights’ heads fell to the floor.

Calf was also not something that could be avoided.

“Hehe, fortunately it’s still the same as I knew. Do you have any complaints?”

The knights answered at once in a loud voice.

“no!”

“Kalph, you seem to be dissatisfied?”

Calf, who had his head banged, felt like he was going crazy.

Doesn’t it feel like you just stepped forward and got caught instead?

Calf screamed at the top of his lungs.

“no!!”

“What isn’t it?”

“…yes?”

“I asked you what it was?”

I shouldn’t have answered.

Because that wasn’t a question I was asking for an answer to.

“I’m… sorry!”

“What are you sorry about?”

“…..”

Calf was speechless.

I felt resentful of myself for carrying my grandfather’s name on my back for no reason.

“You’re not even answering me now?”

“I’m… sorry!”

Paramon looked around and clicked his tongue.

“Do you think that your grandfather and I guarded this place so that you could harass commoners?”

“no!!”

A similar scene was unfolding a little further away.

“If you’re in the 4th circle, you’re still in the prime of learning magic.”

“Yes, Clocell! I am working hard without resting!”

Clocell clicked his tongue when he saw the knights lying face down.

“I don’t scold people in such a barbaric way.”

A sigh of relief escaped the wizards’ mouths.

Because they were secretly worried that they too would end up like that.

But Clocell in front of me didn’t seem to have any such intentions, so I felt like my tension was letting go.

“Since you said you were still working hard, I’d like to ask you about magic.”

The wizard’s fist clenched as he was asked the question.

It was a chance to catch Clocell’s eye if you just answered well.

It was time to prove the skills I had built up through research.

“I can answer anything.”

“Huh?”

Clocell opened his mouth with a meaningful smile.

“Please explain the formula for the Explosion magic among the six circle magics.”

The wizard’s mouth could not help but remain closed when asked the question.

How does he, a 4th circle person, know the 6th circle magic formula?

The magic, which was two levels different, was in a realm that was impossible to even understand.

“Well… I’m still in the 4th circle…?”

“Oh, I see. Then…”

Hope appeared in the wizard’s eyes.

You might be mistaken in thinking that 6th circle would be easy for a wizard of Clocell’s level.

Perhaps this time he will ask questions at a difficulty level that suits him.

But contrary to such expectations, what came out of Clocell’s mouth was completely different.

“Go and memorize it now.”

“yes?”

“If you can’t memorize it, you’ll have to be prepared.”
