Chapter 270
I was kicked out of the princess’s palace without even properly grasping how the current situation was going.
If you want to hear the next story, first go to Greenwood Forest and meet Miss Elena and get her recognition.
He said that and just issued a congratulatory order.
I was so adamant that I couldn’t even bet anything else.
What should I do? The one holding the hilt now is Mimir. You have to do what you say.
“… … You don’t have to tell me where to go though.”
Shouldn’t I have told you at least how to get to Greenwood Forest?
What should I do if I just ask them to come and go.
I don’t know anything about geography here.
‘What can I do?’
What should I do to get to Greenwood Forest?
Should I start exploring the surroundings first?
But if you search around, will something come out?
… … I don’t think it will come out
“My head hurts… … .”
Now that this has happened, should I go back to the princess’s palace and ask?
Anyway, I wonder if you can tell me the location.
‘no. With that resolute attitude, it seems like they won’t let you know.’
And it’s a bit like asking for help from someone who has issued a congratulatory order so resolutely.
Should I say that I am proud of myself?
‘What should I do?’
The worry deepened.
‘If Miho had been there, the problem would have been solved on its own.’
If Miho had been by her side right now, she would have detected Miss Elena’s soul and guided her to the Greenwood Forest in detail.
He regrets not bringing Miho with him.
‘Well, although there was no way to bring it in the first place.’
Mimir said that only I can access the page of the test.
No matter how much Miho is bound by ‘Factio’, it is impossible to enter and leave this place.
I’m really sorry.
‘… … But in case you don’t know, should I call you?’
There is only one case at a time.
If I activate Factio and call for Miho, wouldn’t it fly away?
No matter how much Mimir I am, I won’t be able to fully understand even about mythic magic.
‘Let’s do it. It’s worth the bottom line.’
There is nothing to lose by trying.
I immediately activated Factio using the medium of Factio, the necklace I had on my neck.
The mana gathered in the necklace turned red and gave off a faint glow.
‘… … Will it activate?’
The fact that a group of red lights came out means that Factio was activated safely.
In other words, contrary to Mimir’s words, Miho is being summoned here.
‘what. It’s going well.’
also. No matter how much Mimir was, it seemed that he could not fully understand even about non-specified divine magic such as mythical magic.
‘If this happens, the story will change.’
Going to Greenwood Forest seems to have been resolved somehow.
‘The problem is about Elena-sama in Greenwood Forest… … .’
Mimir didn’t remember me.
In other words, the Mimir of this world is the Mimir before I met him.
That said, there’s a high probability that Elena-sama in this world doesn’t know me either.
‘The time we met on the page of the third test… … It’s highly likely that she’s still in the same state as Miss Elena before meeting me.’
If this world also has the same structure as the previous test pages, it means that Elena-sama in this world is a duplicate of Elena-sama before I met her.
can’t remember me
‘That’s a bit of a headache… … .’
Considering Elena’s personality, I don’t think she’ll throw me out the door.
I think my head hurts though. It seems oddly sad.
no. It’s not strange, but it seems really sad.
That someone who is no different from my gift wouldn’t remember me.
If you ask, ‘Who are you?’, your heart might drop right there.
It might be better to prepare your mind in advance.
I smiled bitterly at that thought.
‘But what is the purpose of this test page?’
I really don’t understand.
I’ve thought about it several times, but nothing is inferred as a purpose.
It’s like having to meet Elena again.
It’s like the fact that Mimir, who doesn’t even remember me, came out as an examiner.
Why did Master make this world a page for testing?
I don’t know.
Not expected at all.
‘And why is Miho not responding?’
Even if he was summoned, he should have been summoned a long time ago.
Miho still hasn’t shown up.
‘Obviously it was activated normally.’
The necklace still emits red light.
Factio was definitely activated.
‘But why?’
Even so, Miho is not summoned. What is the reason?
‘… … driving me crazy.’
My head hurt even more than before.
Nothing goes as expected.
‘Oh, I don’t know. Once canceled… … .’
It was time to cancel Factio and try to find another way.
Clink!
Suddenly there was the sound of something breaking.
A little sharper than the sound of glass breaking.
It was the sound of something eerie.
“hmm. I hadn’t heard of this.”
Through the sound of glass breaking, a man’s voice was heard.
This is also a voice that makes you feel deja vu.
No, beyond the sense of deja vu, it was definitely a familiar voice.
I opened my eyes and turned to where the voice came from.
I saw empty space, shattered like broken glass.
A man walking slowly out of it.
Starting with the feet, thighs, torso and neck. Slowly the man’s figure began to emerge in the sunlight.
“You’ve changed noticeably in the 5 minutes I haven’t seen you.”
“Aslan-nim!”
Aslan Polo Hamruin.
A 9th circle mage, and the only mage other than Master who can handle space magic.
He laughed as if the situation was very amusing.
“That expression… … . Right. It looks like a lot of time has passed outside.”
He laughed and put his index finger and thumb on his chin, thinking.
Judging from that appearance, Aslan didn’t seem to know how the situation was going.
“Well, is it true that you remember me for now?”
From what you said at the beginning, it seems clear that he remembers me.
something you don’t know It’s good to make sure this is the case.
“It sounds strange.”
Aslan frowned, asking what nonsense he was talking about.
It is certainly. The Aslan Polo Hamruin in front of me is the Aslan Polo Hamruin I knew and taught me in the pages of the test.
“More than that, this situation right now… … .”
That’s what Aslan-nim is trying to say.
The body suddenly leaned forward.
And on top of that, a huge fox with white fur appeared.
“you… … .”
Miho.
No, should I say Gumiho now?
The perfect nine-tailed fox that I met on the previous page of the test approached me.
Then, he brought his face to him as if he was happy to see him.
The light from the necklace seeped into the nine-tailed fox.
“ah. It was connected with you in this world, not with Miho.”
Apparently, it wasn’t Miho that Factio was trying to summon, it was a nine-tailed fox, a perfect god in front of him.
‘… … that’s interesting.’
Is it because Miho and this kid have the same soul?
Even though we didn’t sign a direct contract, it was very strange that we were connected through Factio.
“I have something important to say. Get out of the way.”
Aslan-nim crossed the nine-tailed fox and stood in front of me.
The nine-tailed fox frowned as if he didn’t like Asran.
“wait for a while.”
I stroked her head as if to appease such a nine-tailed fox.
The gumiho smiled brightly as if he had never frowned.
Then, she made her body smaller and fit into my arms.
‘… … Is it because it is complete? Even though she’s small, she’s different from Miho.’
haha Even when Miho changed from 5 to 6, there were changes. Is it normal to be different?
No matter what it is, it doesn’t matter because it’s the same as being cute.
I stroked the smaller nine-tailed fox with all my heart.
“… … Tsk. Even five minutes ago, you looked like you were about to die.”
Aslan-nim looked at the nine-tailed fox with a disapproving face.
Then he turned around and looked at me as if he wasn’t interested.
“First of all, I’d like to ask you in case you don’t know. Do you know what the situation is like now?”
“no. I don’t know the details either. just… … When I entered the page of the sixth test, I was in this state… … .”
“The page of the sixth test? here?”
Aslan’s eyes narrowed even more.
I seem to have more thoughts.
“Did you just come in?”
“no. That’s not it. I came in before, and the place is not here… … .”
I stuck my thumb back and pointed at the princess’s palace.
“excuse me. It’s inside the princess’s palace.”
“The princess’s palace?”
Aslan looked at me as if asking what that meant.
“What is behind it?”
“… … yes?”
I quickly turned around.
Where is the princess’s palace?
After leaving the princess’s palace, he hadn’t moved a single step.
Of course behind… … .
“… … uh?”
does not exist.
“… … why?”
The princess’s palace, which had been there just before, disappeared in an instant.
As if it never existed in the first place.
have completely disappeared
“… … what is this again?”
The already complicated head became even more complicated.
* * *
After that, I told Asran-nim about all the things I’ve been through, as well as tidying up my complicated hair.
Upon entering the page of the sixth test, there was Mimir, who identified herself as the princess.
That Mimir didn’t remember me.
And even telling her to go to Greenwood Forest and receive recognition from Greenwood as Elena, saying it was a no-brainer test.
It was explained from one to ten without missing a single Tossi.
“Is Mimir the examiner?”
Aslan-nim, who heard everything, frowned and thought.
I thought Aslan-sama would notice something.
Even after listening to everything, it seems that I can’t figure out the situation.
“Didn’t Master tell you this?”
“okay. There was no such thing.”
Aslan-nim gave a vague answer with a complex expression on her face.
“My mission just ended with passing you through. I don’t know what happened after this.”
“… … okay.”
Even Aslan, one of the examiners, doesn’t know.
So you’re saying that the sixth test page itself is top secret?
Or did something unexpected happen even to Master?
I don’t know.
“There is too little information.”
“yes.”
Aslan-nim clicked her tongue and removed her hand from her chin.
“There is no point in thinking about it any more. for now… … .”
Then, using magic, he created a crack in the air.
“As Mimir said, you should go to the Greenwood Forest.”
“yes. That would be better.”
Infuse mana with your hand in the crack that widens left and right.
It seems to be setting a destination.
“however… … Can we go to Greenwood Forest?”
“It’s normal when things don’t go as they should. Because the only thing embodied on the page of the fifth test where I was was the labyrinth of desire.”
As if something was not going well, he reduced the amount of mana, increased it, and adjusted it in various ways.
“Originally, I shouldn’t have been able to come here either. No, it’s normal if this place wasn’t materialized in the first place.”
“The fact that this place is materialized is proof that the Greenwood forest is also materialized.”
“okay. I don’t know why, but the embodied world has expanded. No, at this momentum, should we consider them combined?”
“Combined… … .”
In short, the pages of the third test and the pages of the fifth test are combined.
And if that hypothesis is correct… … .
“The pages of the third, fifth and sixth exams have all been put together. Is it like this?”
“okay.”
Aslan’s eyes shone.
It seems that the mana coordination is over.
“The key is whether the pages of the three trials were put together according to the master’s plan, or whether an unexpected error occurred. If it’s the former, there’s no problem, but if it’s the latter… … .”
“It must be embarrassing.”
“If she doesn’t know about this situation, there is a high probability… … .”
“There is a high probability that something has gone wrong.”
“yes.”
Aslan-nim took her hand out of the crack and gave me a chin.
“No matter what, joining Elena is the first thing. Go in.”
“yes.”
While holding Miho in my arms, I am in the crack created by Aslan-sama. I moved to the portal.
When moving through the portal, a unique dark landscape passes by.
A tree of several tens of meters, which is proud of the greenwood forest, caught my eye.
‘It’s a real greenwood forest.’
When you are so immersed in emotion.
‘… … live!!’
Suddenly, I sensed a slimy life behind my back.
and at the same time.
Corrupted mana covered the heavens and the earth.
“… … you guys What is your relationship with the forest witch?”
Dozens of warlocks surrounded me, holding out their wands.
