I Became the Barbarian Power Mage of the Academy - I Became the Barbarian Power Mage of the Academy chapter 16

Select episode 16.

Looking around, I don’t see many people.

Looks like I’ve come to a strange place after walking around.

Lisa, who reacted first, shouted.

“This way!”

Lisa is a professional Ojirapper.

I can’t stay still when I hear those screams.

However, Balt and Arias looked at Lisa with expressions that said, “Why?”

Bald is not an apostle of justice.

There are reasons for this attitude.

She helped a woman she didn’t know in Korea, but how much trouble she suffered when she was accused of molestation.

It’s a pity, but since then, he doesn’t even pay attention to women who are in danger.

Arias seems to think that it is unnecessary for elves to be involved in human affairs.

The two of them are holding their ground, and Lisa shouts.

“What are you two doing!? This way?”

Valt and Arias are forced to move, not because of the screaming woman, but because of the attitude of their new friend, Lisa.

‘Nearby… It looks like a slum and will be annoying.’

As expected, five men who look menacing at first sight are persecuting a woman holding a baby.

The woman seems to be selling various kinds of medicinal herbs at the stall, but they are all scattered on the street.

They must have kicked it.

“Sir Pearl, why don’t you borrow money and not pay it back!? If we just pay back the money, what will we do?”

The woman trembles and holds her baby to her chest.

“If you ask me to pay back twice as much interest in one week… My mother and daughter will only be told to die. Where in the world is there such an interest rate?”

A sleazy man in skinhead with scars on his face flicks his tongue and giggles.

“We explained enough! Isn’t it the lady who signed the contract!? Did we ask you to borrow some money? She came and asked you to borrow it?”

The illiteracy rate is high in this era.

Those guys are putting pressure on women who can’t read to get them to borrow money at ridiculous interest rates.

It’s obvious, but… It is an effective tool.

There are definitely usury lenders in this era where the legal upper limit on interest rates for lending companies is not set like in Korea.

“I can’t pay that kind of money. Please! Please be lenient!”

The knife-scarred bastard says while smacking his lips.

“You can’t pay it back? Then it’s fine? Ha, this lady is more indecisive than us? Then you have to pay her back with her body!!”

She calls her auntie, but she is a young woman.

I don’t know what’s going on, but it looks like she’s raising a child alone.

After grasping the situation, Lisa steps out.

“Stop there!!”

When the petite Lisa appears, everyone’s eyes are focused on Lisa.

“Hey, thugs, I understand the situation, but isn’t it too much?”

Thugs sneak up on Lisa, who speaks boldly.

“What is this little thing called? Don’t look stern and get out of here.”

But Lisa does not back down.

“To think that grown-up men are persecuting women and children! As nobles, this is unacceptable.”

Even when they hear that they are nobles, they don’t seem frightened.

“What are you talking about, you’re an aristocrat? Just go on your way. Don’t bother with work. Apparently, you’re a nobleman who’s new to the ecliptic?”

Whoa… Do you treat nobles like that? There are definitely places to believe.

“What if it’s the first time! It looks like they’re squeezing people out of a loop of nonsense, but in our territory, those guys are all going to the dungeon!”

They laugh at Lisa’s threat.

“Go to the lady’s manor and do it. This is the imperial capital, so just go… Ehh! That’s why the villagers…”

At that, Lisa drew her sword.

Chang!

“If you don’t listen with words, I’ll make you listen with force!”

They don’t lose their composure even while watching Lisa collect Aura.

“Puff… What is it? Floor 2? Over there, a noble lady? Isn’t that just trying to do something to us?”

And while doing so, each of them raises their aura.

Lisa was shocked when she saw that.

“What, what?”

‘Ha? The neighborhood thug is on the 3rd floor? What are these guys doing?’

Perhaps sensing their strength, Arias stops Lisa.

“Lisa! Dangerous! Come back!”

It was only then that they looked surprised as if they had found Arias.

“Whoa!! Elf!? This is so lucky!!”

Hearing that, Balt roughly got a sense of what these guys were doing.

These guys are human traffickers impersonating usurers.

They will trap people for money and sell them as slaves.

The ecliptic also has many problems?

At first, I was dubious, but seeing Arias say he was lucky, it’s clear.

“hahahahaha. There is no escort in this area without a coward. No, there is only one lump. Anyway, did you come here with just that much skill?”

It is said that light and darkness coexist in the ecliptic, so this seems to be the dark side of the ecliptic.

If only usury gangsters are on the 3rd floor, does that mean that the ecliptic is different no matter what? Lisa’s expression hardens at the absurd situation.

“Rain, damn it…”

‘Arias… It’s similar to Lisa. Floor 2? Instead, there is spiritism, so it must be stronger than that.’

Still, there are five of them.

It seems difficult for the two of Lisa and Arias to compete.

A situation in which they confronted each other.

Arias is still tender-hearted, so she stands next to Lisa and draws a sword to fight the thugs.

Lisa sends Balt a face asking for help, but Balt To be honest, I want to take this opportunity to correct Lisa’s habit.

Anyway, it’s perfect for a violent death somewhere.

It’s okay now that Balt is with you, but what if he dies while Balt isn’t there?

There is no such thing as dog death.

“It is your choice. You are responsible.”

At Balt’s words, Lisa gave up helping and made up her mind.

“Yes, yes! Like Balt too! You can do it!”

But Arias hears something different.

“Even after seeing that filthy savage bastard…”

Well, Balt doesn’t think it’s bad to let the noble lady and the elf princess know how scary the world is.

But then.

A familiar alarm sounds in Balt’s ears.

Diring!

‘That’s right.’

From noble mtl dot com.

【Sudden Quest: Life of the Weak】

You who enjoyed the ecliptic happily! But what is this? I met a mother and daughter who were in a difficult situation. What about your choice?

Your choice.

5P bonus points, other random rewards according to user’s choice.

This time is quite different from the previous quests.

The rewards change depending on the choice?

‘Hmm… I’m curious….’

The battle between the gangsters, Lisa and Arias has already begun.

“Ha!”

“Cluck! Is this enough? Noble lady?”

It’s natural, but Lisa is being pushed behind.

At least, Lisa’s swordsmanship is higher than those of them, and Arias’s spiritism balances it to some extent.

But at this rate, it would be obvious that the two would lose.

Should I say fortunately?

They have no intention of killing Lisa and Arias.

As expected, he’s a human trafficker.

While they are fighting back and forth.

Balt checks the quest and walks over to the woman and asks.

I’m trying to get the minimum information for selection.

“Why did you borrow the money?”

Suddenly, an enormous man asks something strange, but the woman cries and answers.

“Oh, the child is very sick and needs treatment.”

For Valt, who was abandoned by his parents when he was young, he liked the woman’s answer.

“Didn’t you know it would turn out like this?”

Then the mother bursts into tears and says.

“Hey heck… I was in such a hurry! I knew what was going to happen to the child! I would have done the same thing if I went back. hehehe…”

“Okay.”

Balt, having said that, stands in front of Lisa and them.

“Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Ba, Balt?”

Balt intervenes in the lull in the battle between Lisa and the thugs.

“Just go. Get the money in principal. How much do you owe?”

The bewildered bastards are dazed by Balt’s words.

“What are you talking about…? This bear?”

A huge man in front of you.

I thought he was an escort, but I don’t know what it was because he didn’t come forward.

But seeing as I can’t feel the proper mana, I’m not even an aura user.

Wizard? At that size? Absolutely not.

That’s definitely just a threat ornament.

Ordinary guys would have made a fuss with their menacing size, but they are talented people on the 3rd floor of their own floor.

But again, strange words come out of the mouth of that big guy who doesn’t know the subject.

“I’ll give you the money, so I told you to go. Didn’t you want to make things big?”

The knife-scarred gangster laughed out loud.

“Puhahahahaha! Money, that’s good! That money just turned into 1,000 gold.”

If you sold elves as slaves, you could get enough money.

The gangster with a fishy smile looks at Arias and licks her lips.

‘Keuhehehe, what kind of windfall is this? The aristocrat next to you will be able to get a high price!’

Balt asks the child’s mother once again at the words of the gangster.

“Did you borrow that much money?”

The woman shakes her head violently at Balt’s question.

“That can’t be! The money I borrowed is only 10 silver!”

It must be the money you need to get treatment from the doctor and buy something to eat.

Balt takes out two 10-silver coins from his money bag and bounces them at the thugs.

Ting!

Ting Ting T Didi Ding

Took!

“I think 20 silver will be enough. I got the money, so go now.”

Looking at the coin that fell on the ground, the gangster’s expression rots.

“이 개새끼가!! 누굴 거지로 아나! 죽여!!”
