I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes - I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes chapter 62

Visit the Black Mage Tower

“What would you like?”

I muttered.

One wall of the office was hung with a list of assignments.

Why, just like the adventurer’s guild in a fantasy game or anime.

Incidentally, there was an adventurer’s guild in this world as well.

Of course, there were a lot of academy cadets, so it wasn’t just that there was a request form hanging on the bulletin board like a guild building.

Even though it was filling the walls of this large office.

Some of these quests were selected by the academy from the quests that entered the Adventurer’s Guild.

Excluding quests that are too difficult or easy, and quests that are too far from the academy.

It was appropriate to select and receive quests that would be useful for the growth and evaluation of the cadets.

It might be said that there would be no complaints if the academy took the quest, but first of all, the skills of the academy cadets were on the clear side.

Also, the quests selected by the academy were not about rewards, but the main goal was to gain experience for the cadets.

In other words, it does not overlap much with the quests preferred by adventurers.

In addition, it was a good thing to solve a request that was not popular as a guild.

Some of the requests were handed over from the guild.

Also, there were some requests coming directly to the academy.

Of course, the cadets had no way or need to tell them apart.

Except for the mission like the last nest exploration.

I started looking at missions where combat was essential.

The reason for accepting this task anyway was to match the newly formed party members.

“Disciple, how about this?”

Is it to relieve the chilly atmosphere?

It may be because of my mood, but Master pointed to one of the requests and said in a slightly exaggerated voice.

However, seeing it, I had no choice but to shake my head.

“It’s a bunch.”

“why!”

“The difficulty is too high.”

“What do you mean? Is this enough?”

Master’s words were not wrong.

Although Veronica is not there, Felice also has some outstanding skills.

Compared to my freshman year, I also became a lot stronger.

Aine what… You won’t be able to expect big growth until her event is over, though.

Above all, we have a Master.

That said, it’s not a matter of skill, it’s a matter of rules.

In the first place, the number of people participating in this task is only four, excluding Veronica.

That’s why I explained to Master that the difficulty of the tasks he could accept was limited.

‘for a moment. Come to think of it, isn’t Master already aware of this?’

I had that thought all of a sudden.

After hearing my explanation, Master opened her mouth.

“Oh, I see. Come to think of it, there must have been such a rule… How is it that you are so vague?”

Well, well over ten years have passed.

Little things like this can be overlooked.

Anyway, Aine who listened to me picked up a request hanging in the corner of the wall.

No, I was trying to pick it up.

Perhaps because of his short stature, he stretched out his hand toward the request form on the ceiling and struggled on tiptoe.

Seeing that, I suppressed a small smile.

I went behind Aine and grabbed the request document she was reaching out for.

“oh! Thanks, Louie… ”

Perhaps it was embarrassing, Aine’s face was slightly red.

Anyway, I saw the request she was about to pick up.

“Um, goblin subjugation? It looks fine, how is everyone?”

Since goblins are weak monsters, the difficulty level was also right.

In addition, it was a humanoid monster, so considering the event in the dark forest, it was good to match the sum.

“It seems a little trivial, but it can’t be helped.”

Master says.

“I feel good too… ”

Felice also agreed.

“Then, shall we do this?”

After saying that to Aine, we headed to the desk on the other side of the office.

“Are you taking orders?”

“yes.”

I’ve heard it a few times before, but it’s still the same lines.

Sasha, even empty words, it was difficult to call her a kind person.

Anyway, since I was helped by her during the last duel, I greeted her lightly.

“Long time no see.”

“Certainly so. Hurry up and give me the request.”

Does that mean to read a book and ask it to go away?

Still, I guess that’s what I said in a kind way.

I handed her the goblin subjugation request that Aine had chosen and said.

“The first party in Class A, 2nd year, Veronica Eltwin is absent.”

She checks the documents for something, and then says:

“Yes, the application is complete.”

Time flew by so quickly, and it was already the weekend.

Is Ruine going to leave today?

Or tomorrow?

It was Veronica who had such a question.

However, without being able to resolve such a question, Veronica left the dorm room.

In his hand was a bag that was simply packed.

It was quite a distance from the academy to the Black Mage Tower, but it was all I had to do to check on Sally’s safety.

That’s why I packed a minimum of luggage, just enough to spend the night at the inn.

Leaving the front gate of the academy in a slightly sluggish mood, she immediately got into the carriage she had reserved.

As the coachman had been told beforehand, he started driving the wagon with the black horse tower.

Like that, in a quiet carriage.

Veronica started thinking about Sally.

The first time I felt strange was when I came to the academy and there was no letter from Sally.

That the letter just didn’t come.

Others might say it’s nothing to worry about, but Veronica wrote a letter to her teacher, Scarlett Marche, asking her to find out about Sally.

Scarlett Marche and Sally.

Originally, he was just a mage and a wizard belonging to that tower.

The two became quite close through Veronica.

Of course, Scarlett Marche thought like an indifferent wizard, ‘I wonder what’s going to happen’.

Still, she, too, was worried that something might happen to Sally, so she sent a letter directly.

Meanwhile, Veronica didn’t hear anything from Sally.

It was Sally who sent every letter before, so Veronica’s anxiety only grew.

Eventually, Scarlett, who didn’t get a reply from Sally, also realized that something was wrong.

She told Veronica that she would find out for herself.

Of course, it wasn’t that Veronica didn’t believe in Master.

To the orphan Veronica, Master and Sally were like family.

It was painful to sit still and wait until Master delivered the news.

Therefore, it was a car that had made a reservation for the carriage and contacted the black horse tower in advance.

By the way, Louis was talking about party activities.

Of course, I felt very sorry for Louis.

After that, I tried to explain the situation to Louis, but it was difficult to get the timing right.

After all, it was the weekend.

In the original story, Veronica did not go to the Black Tower at this time.

Louis was completely unaware of this.

—

various thoughts.

Most of them were worried about Sally and guilty about Louis.

Anyway, with those thoughts in mind, Veronica arrived at the Black Horse Tower.

They said we were leaving early, but by the time we arrived, the sun had already set.

Well, it wasn’t midnight at all.

In a hurry, Veronica headed straight for the horse tower.

A wizard at the entrance of the tower stops Veronica.

“What are you doing?”

“Veronica Eltwin, a disciple of the Red Majesty. I should have called you in advance.”

“ah… Please wait a moment.”

The attitude of the wizard, who was looking at Veronica with annoyed eyes, changes.

The status of being a disciple of Mateap Master was also sufficient in other Mtaptops.

No, rather than the people outside the tower, the wizards knew the greatness of their position better.

In addition, the red horse tower is one of the top horse towers in the empire.

A normal person would have to make a reservation in advance and get permission.

Even if it’s Veronica’s level, at least there’s no way you’ll get knocked out.

There, she was already talking about the car.

“Come in. I will guide you.”

Soon a wizard came out to greet her from inside.

Of course, he was a different person from the wizard who was guarding the door earlier.

Is it because of the prejudice against the black mage tower?

Somehow, it was Veronica who thought the wizard was gloomy.

Unexpectedly, he dutifully explained the Mage Tower to Veronica.

Even if it was an explanation, it was mostly theoretical content.

That’s how the wizard’s explanation roughly ends.

he asks Veronica.

“So, why did the wizard of the Red Mage Tower come here?”

“A mage belonging to our Mage Tower was dispatched here, but we lost contact for a while. I wish I could see her… ”

“You mean the dispatch wizard? What is your name?”

“This is Sally.”

“Sally… ”

After muttering once, the wizard tells Veronica.

“Would you please wait here for a moment?”

“yes.”

Leaving her in the Mage Tower lobby, the wizard disappeared into darkness in an instant.

Around the time Veronica was looking around the lobby and evaluating it as quite gloomy, befitting a black magic tower.

At the same time, around the time when I was hoping to see Sally soon.

As if disobeying Veronica’s expectations, the wizard returned to Veronica alone.

He tells the disappointed Veronica.

“It’s already late today, can you come back tomorrow?”

“I’m okay with being late… ”

“Our wizard in charge of the dispatch wizard has already left work.”

Although she didn’t like it, Veronica eventually nodded her head.

I just wanted to ask if you could just bring Sally over.

Even Veronica knew that it was not polite to come one-sidedly at a late hour.

Of course, if it had been before, I wouldn’t have cared about that.

After the incident with Louis, she became a little more cautious in dealing with others.

But.

The next day, Veronica heard something unbelievable.

“Yes? Didn’t you arrive?”
