I’m a Hero, but I Gave Up Saving the World - I’m a Hero, but I Gave Up Saving the World chapter 44

44 – Exile(1)

Pangea, where all things go around with a structure different from Earth.

Mana flows through the bodies of people born here.

This is no exception. The word mana itself means the energy emitted by life.

However, there is a sharp difference between those who can handle the mana flowing through their bodies and those who can’t, and the former are those with the talent to become magicians.

Everyone who learned how to handle mana, even a little bit, was classified as an apprentice wizard.

They enter the academy, undergo advanced training, and graduate with the qualifications of a lesser mage.

It is said that 50% of wizards around the world end their careers after living as a lower class for their entire lives.

If you work hard from there, you can rise to the intermediate level, and this is the upper limit of the position you can climb with effort.

From the upper level, it is said that unless you are a selected genius, you cannot reach it. All the professors at the academy are at least this class.

Usually, children who grew up listening to the sound of geniuses when they were young or talented people who compete for the top position at the academy are promoted to advanced wizards.

Up to this point, you can live with respect as an intellectual or a master. It is to the extent that it is possible to make a living simply by accepting lecture offers pouring in like water.

The goal of ambitious young people to learn magic and sell it once stops at advanced wizards.

This is because the archmage, one level higher than the advanced mage, is a different dimension.

The reality is that even one archmage might appear in a country. The archmage is determined the moment he is born. It’s not about winning with effort.

However, if a person was born with the qualities of an archmage, he or she can occupy a prominent position on the continent of Pangea, such as master of a large guild, minister of a country, or head of an academy, at any time.

The title of a great wizard is a guarantee that you are famous all over the world, and your name is etched into history, and it is accepted as meaning that you alone have a force equivalent to that of a single country. His influence is greater than that of the king of a small country.

Among the great wizards, 5 uniquely outstanding ones are selected and the title of “sage” is awarded, and the sage is the pinnacle of the tens of millions of wizards around the world.

The sages are beings comparable to the four heavenly kings, the highest officials in the demon king’s army.

The sage vs. the four kings were the eternal rice cakes of luxury.

It was Helen Walker who was proudly making a name for herself as the youngest in the ultra-elite group called Oh Sage.

Everyone says that her mana is frighteningly calm, and you can never predict what kind of attack she will attack next.

Arwen Undress is the person that Helen Walker highly praises, saying “He’s stronger than me” and “I can’t win even if there are two of me”.

He is the former commander of the Imperial Army, considered one of mankind’s strongest warriors.

Arwen is a hand-to-hand combat specialist who only uses magic to strengthen the body.

It is often said that the strength of its skin has already surpassed that of dragons.

It is Minerva Old Book who says that even Arwen cannot be assured of victory.

great sage.

The head of the sages.

Her reputation and skills are known as the strongest among wizards.

To summarize:

Minerva Old Book, Helen Walker, Arwen Undress.

These three people are the three strongest people on the human side in name and reality.

—Dealing with those three superhumans at the same time was Queen Mischa Greenwood, who caused a great war between elves and humans a thousand years ago.

With one determination not to let her master’s revenge get in the way, Misha succeeded in suppressing the strong men who were clearly outside the standard.

However, while fighting while being careful not to damage Faust, she couldn’t concentrate on the battle with all her strength, and was slowly reaching her limit due to the overlapping damage.

“Sigh… Sigh… annoying humans. I am telling you to repent of your sins and commit suicide.”

“Stop talking nonsense. You elves have been tormenting us since ancient times. If you’re of elven royalty, you’re better off. It is certain that if you and Faust join forces, it will grow into an unprecedented disaster. If you can’t lay your hands on Faust, I’ll just kill you here.”

“I agree with you, great sage. We’re already out of stamina and mana from killing hundreds of dragons led by Meranir. It is unreasonable to deal with Faust, who has absorbed all of Meranir’s power. The fact that Faust is preoccupied with the hero’s party is rather fortunate for us. Killing even one elf with such unusual power here is a huge benefit to us.”

“… Once you’ve decided on your target, move quickly. Killing that elf won’t be easy either. Elves are originally a race with a lot of mana, but that bitch is different… . Well, it doesn’t look like you’re in very good shape, though.”

Arwen instinctively realized that Misha was much weaker than in her prime.

The harsh life of a thousand years of slavery had even dulled the noble queen’s body.

“I have a lot of combat experience. I’ve fought a lot with elves too. You guys have a lot of pride and are well aware of the mysterious magic we don’t know. Elves who decide to fight once will never stop resisting until they die. So I will definitely cut off your breath. With this “Toppa” of mine

saw wave.

It was the main weapon of Arwen, which had the same shape as a normal tonfa, but had a saw attached to the end so that it could be cut and cut like a saw blade.

“A cheeky human… ! I mean, don’t say arrogant things about a lower race that can’t live 100 years.”

“If you die after being decapitated by that lower race, you will feel dirty. right?”

Arwen suddenly jumped up and attacked Misha while spinning at an invisible speed. The attack was so fast that the Elf Queen didn’t even have time to use her defense magic.

“damn… ! If Misha was in her prime, a kid like you… !!”

“If I make excuses on the battlefield, who will listen?”

Misha, who had exhausted a considerable amount of magic while dealing with three monsters at the same time, was unexpectedly helpless by Arwen.

I was cut and cut by the saw wave, and the scars increased on my white jade-like skin. Most of all, it seemed to be troubled by the terrifying speed that did not allow even breaking the chant.

Helen, who was watching the scene, suddenly had a different idea.

“As expected, Arwen is special. If it’s just simple combat ability, wouldn’t it be better than Great Sage-sama’s… ?”

“When young people grow up, I am only grateful. But why are you suddenly saying that?”

“Assuming that Arwen alone can deal with that terrifying elf, then the great sage and I can concentrate our efforts on killing that man who will become the greatest threat to mankind in the future.”

“Oh my… ”

Helen Walker pointed at Faust, who was filming a revenge play alone in the distance.

Faust was about to deliver the final blow to Kwak Dong-soo.

It seemed that this side was not paying attention at all because he was immersed in completing his own narrative.

In other words, it means being careless.

“Before Faust can make the Dragon King’s power completely his own, he must first be cut off in the bud. When it grows to the end, it might become truly unstoppable.”

“It is the same. can’t let go of your hand You really have to die. With the strongest magic. Are you confident?”

“Could there be anyone in the world who would survive our link-up?

At the moment when Faust had just killed Kwak Dong-soo and the rest of the party members were busy trying to do business, the two men of Back-to-Back Grinding started preparing to chant S-rank magic that would inevitably kill even the dragon king if hit properly.

‘Oh, no! Master is in danger!’

Misha immediately recognized the danger looming over his master.

And, as is usually the case with masters who have reached the realm of superhuman under extreme circumstances, Misha was experiencing time being compressed.

Obviously, it was a short time, less than a second to measure.

However, Misha felt lost in thoughts for a very long time.

She is always teased by Faust for being stupid, but this time she thought desperately.

‘That link magic is really dangerous. Even the current master will die if he gets hit by that magic’

First of all, don’t let that spell hit the owner. It was an absolute premise.

‘Should I shout at the master and inform him of the danger? Even if those women suddenly attacked at that moment, the current master who became the Dragon King might be able to avoid it.’

‘Ah, but… Master now’

Faust was now preparing to kill the rest of the hero’s party as well.

Misha was able to sympathize with Faust’s feelings because she watched from the side how he prepared for revenge.

So, I didn’t want to disturb.

‘What am I hesitating for? It was decided from the beginning. I decided to put my heart aside for the sake of my master’s happiness’
