I Was Banished From the Hero Party I Raised

3. Start training (5)

For 14 days, Vivian faithfully obeyed my words.

There was no skipping food or training.

To be honest, I was so eager that I was worried about everyone watching.

I shouldn’t fall down like that, I said.

Fortunately, that didn’t happen.

The superman’s body isn’t even that weak.

During training, she did run into a few times with her former manager, who bullied Vivian.

Did you say Felix?

Every time I was with you, nothing special happened.

He seemed to be more afraid of Kati than he was.

I found out while living together that Vivian was surprisingly expressive of emotions.

Behind the sullen self-loathing was a shy and candid side.

I cried so much when I received a letter from the monastery saying how well they were doing.

The letter said that I had donated food, so I cried even more when I saw that.

Originally, she was eager, but since that day, Vivian has been training with almost venom.

Ignoring the manager’s guild’s invitation to join and urging to attend classes.

Finally, the 14th day came.

The training ground behind the training camp.

It was a place to practice practical skills.

All over the place, other aspirants were testing their skills on scarecrows.

Vivian and I also settled down.

“Don’t be too nervous.”

“Yes, yes… .”

To cheer up, he even puts on a combat magician’s robe and trembles tremendously.

I was also nervous, so I took out a cane sugar I had recently supplemented and asked.

Vivian did much better than I expected.

But, to be honest, I can’t help it.

The members of the first party, including Sylvia, knew that they were strong in the second playthrough, so I chose them.

Vivian is different.

I don’t know what she did in the 2nd playthrough.

It was just a reasonable reasoning that caused the mana explosion.

First of all, it’s another matter if you can really become a great wizard just because you can cause it.

Still, he didn’t show any tension on the outside.

As I taught, if I get nervous, it only has a worse effect on Vivian.

“One shot of the ice spear. Fast, precise and strong. You need to pay attention to all three conditions.

“yes… !”

“And when casting, don’t close your eyes. You must have practiced.”

This is the most frequent mistake made by novice wizards, but it is surprisingly difficult to fix.

Vivian opened her eyes when she practiced, so I believe she will do well.

… will you do well?

“Yes, I will try…” .”

Vivian catches her breath slowly.

Mercy was also nervous and grabbed my arm.

Kati watched Vivian expressionlessly.

“Whoa… .”

He exhaled slowly and opened his closed eyes.

The results came very quickly.

-bang!!

The scarecrow, who had been in the distance in front of Vivian, disappeared.

A huge ice spear was embedded in its place.

He did not hit the scarecrow, but destroyed it by crushing it.

“uh… .”

Even Vivian herself was surprised.

More than that, what surprised me more was the aspirants who were training around me.

It was only natural that a pillar of ice the size of half a building rose out of nowhere in the middle of the training ground.

“Uh, wow… . me, me! You did it! As soon as you open the circuit, the magic is… !”

Vivian came out and looked at the ice spear, then shouted.

“I-I couldn’t even see properly… .”

Mercy muttered as if she had seen something in vain.

That’s how fast Vivian’s magic was.

It’s not just the opening of the circuit that’s faster.

Calculations have also become much more sophisticated.

“I-I did well? You did a good job right?!”

asked Vivian, jumping around.

I couldn’t answer right away.

‘… He’s so much better than I thought.’

As soon as I opened the circuit, a magic circle was drawn above my head, and a huge ice spear was launched.

The process went literally in the blink of an eye.

The size of the ice spear was also larger than before, so it’s not enough to say it’s big.

The biggest change of all is that it is embedded in the ground.

It’s different from the last time it was shattered.

That is, the density also increased.

‘It’s too overpowered… .’

When I didn’t get an answer, Vivian looked anxious and wept.

“Did I do something wrong… ? Also I… .”

“Oh, it’s not like that. far exceeded my expectations… . I forgot to tell you.”

Hearing the answer, he laughed again.

“really?”

“Really. It’s kind of funny, but honestly, I didn’t expect it to grow to this extent.”

Vivian’s smile grew thicker.

That’s when the corners of my lips touch my ears.

In the meantime, other aspirants and managers gathered around them.

A few approached the bulky ice spear.

“Wow… . what size is this? this is possible… ?”

“I haven’t seen a magician who can do something like this among the regular heroes… .”

“It’s not just the size. Beat it, is it really hard?”

“Wizards, check this carefully. At this density, magic resistance can be crushed to some extent.”

People who came nearby were more noisy.

“Are you a wannabe? Where are you from?”

“Are you the daughter of the owner of the Magic Tower?”

“Where does the owner of the mage tower have children… . But honestly, I still believe it.”

“Isn’t the official hero here to play because he’s bored?”

People surrounded Vivian and whispered.

My surroundings are not easy either.

Whether it’s the manager or the person in charge of the training center, they cling to each other and make a fuss.

“You don’t seem to belong to a guild, but if you join now… .”

“Are there any classes for that aspirant? If not, in my class… .”

“I think it’s just one wizard, how about joining our party?”

“Are you taking this temporary exam? Which member will you be with?”

I’m crazy and I’m going to die

Fortunately, I am better than Vivian.

Everyone couldn’t come closer than a certain distance thanks to Kati spouting Mine’s life force.

However, Vivian is worried that she will be crushed.

“I’ll pass by.”

“Just one word to answer… !”

No, what are these reporters?

I know competent wannabes are popular, but they’re overly tenacious.

Surrounded by people, Vivian looked at me with a teary face.

The feeling of asking for help was desperate.

If you leave it as it is a little longer, I will really cry.

“Please step aside. I will take our mage along.”

“Is that the manager?”

“How long have you been training? Will you be seated at the party?”

I ignored everything that was being asked.

Kati let out a breath of life and opened the way.

The crowd that stood in the way between me and Vivian split to the side.

“Let’s run away for now.”

I stretched out my hand.

“Yes Yes… !”

Vivian hurriedly caught up.

I quickly made my way back to the house.

“Kati, don’t breathe life this way.”

“… Yes.”

I’m out of my mind, but that’s just… .

As this side became noisy, more people who hadn’t noticed rushed in.

“who? The one who wrote the magic?”

“Do you have any magic like that? What is that?”

People’s eyes were also on Mercy and Kati.

“Is that maid a hero too?”

“If it’s a dagger, is it an archer class? But why are you so scared… .”

Katie didn’t even care.

“What elf? Are there any elves who aspire to be heroes?”

“Hey… . One of the best elves I’ve ever seen.”

Mercy was different.

“I-Ian… . me there… .”

Because of her past, she is afraid of being in the spotlight.

Especially if you’re surrounded by people you don’t know and you’re being judged.

When I was with the first party, I fainted a few times.

“I can’t. Just turn into a fairy and hide.”

“Yes… . i get it… .”

People screamed when the elf suddenly disappeared.

Immediately after seeing Mercy who has turned into a fairy, he screams loudly.

They say it’s strange and cute, but Mercy’s expression is almost on the verge of fainting.

Mercy, who turned into a fairy, quickly hid in her pocket.

The chest pocket trembled.

‘It’s nice to have grown up, but I never thought I’d attract attention like this.’

I barely made my way through the crowds of people who were blocking my way.

***

‘… What is this?’

Vivian’s former manager, Felix, looked up at the giant ice spear.

It was an ice spear that would crush many people if it collapsed.

I had never seen such a big and solid magic in my life.

Shouldn’t this be called the top?

Felix’s head turned toward the crowd in the distance.

The wizard in the middle, Vivian.

The dazzlingly white robe looked so good that it made my stomach twist.

I couldn’t believe that it was Vivian, who had picked up rags or something.

“Ah, uh, uh… .”

But the image of her stuttering in front of people was still Vivian.

The timid, lack of self-confidence.

Felix’s head turned slightly to the side.

There, a tall man was surrounded by people.

Vivian’s current manager.

Unlike Vivian, he beckoned to people as if chasing away a pesky fly.

“I’ll pass by.”

The strange atmosphere emitted by the maid next to them made people hesitantly retreat.

Even though they were far away, Felix’s fingertips felt numb.

It was even more so because I had a direct experience with her.

“I will take our mage along.”

The manager finally reached out to Vivian and stretched out her hand.

“Let’s run away for now.”

“Yes Yes… !”

Vivian, who was about to cry, raised her lips as soon as she took her hand.

Felix hated that smile.

To laugh like that, to use such terrifying magic.

It wasn’t the Vivian Felix knew.

‘Fuck… .’

I couldn’t understand.

The Vivian she knew was not that kind of woman.

His aptitude as a wizard is the lowest, and he’s the kind of annoying person who repeats the word “I’m sorry” without doing anything every time.

He was the kind of person Felix detested, who only dreamed vaguely without thinking about trying.

So, Vivian’s intimidated appearance gave a boring yet stable pleasure.

A sense of superiority that tramples on a person whose attributes he despises.

But then Vivian, who trampled on her, cast a spell that made everyone’s eyes go round.

It shouldn’t have happened.

If Vivian actually had talent, it turns out that Felix himself was wrong.

Her smile was like mocking Felix.

You said you were wrong

The noise around me flows into my complicated head one by one.

“Are you going to participate in the next exam?”

“If that’s the case, don’t do it unconditionally. I want to avoid the same exam hall as him… .”

“But you seem to be alone at the party. Wouldn’t that be worth a try?”

“no way… . I’ll find a colleague soon. I want to stick around as well, unless I have a contract with the manager.”

“I heard that the manager didn’t intend to accept it?”

“Eh? okay? It’s rare. Are you taking the test alone?”

Felix’s head spun rapidly.

Warriors basically move in groups.

The basic is a group of 4 people, but you can take the temporary test at least that much.

‘I take the exam alone… .’

No matter how smart you are, an individual is an individual.

It is not easy to pass alone in a dungeon that requires cooperation.

Vivian is alone.

On the other hand, the aspirants Felix had his eye on were a group of four.

He looked at the ice spear again.

‘Vivian’s magic was strong, though. It’s slow and inaccurate magic, so it’s useless.’

In other words, the manager would have only grown Vivian’s destructive power.

It is easier to specialize in strengths than to compensate for weaknesses.

Only the result was so splendid, it was obvious that it would have taken a long time to actually cast the magic.

Vivian’s casting speed is well known to Felix.

‘Worth a try.’

While everyone wants to avoid going to the same test center as Vivian.

Felix thought otherwise.

He decided to go to the same test center and press down with the aspirant he had chosen.

***

As soon as they returned to their lodgings, Mercy collapsed as if fainting.

Kati, who transformed into a cat, lent her arms.

Vivian was envious of Mercy, but told her how it was when she cast magic.

“As soon as the circuit was opened, the magic I had envisioned spread out.”

It is said that it was so fast that it was difficult for him to keep up.

“Maybe it’s my first time, maybe I used too much mana… .”

Now he has come to the point where he cares about the amount of mana he consumes.

“With this, I think I can easily pass the temporary exam.”

“yes? really?! Uh, but I’m alone… Are you taking the exam?”

“yes. Alone will be enough.”

I don’t even have a favorite aspirant yet.

More importantly, you must know how to fight alone.

It is said that cooperation is the basis of a hero, but I think differently.

My theory is that you are strong enough even when fighting alone, and that you should be stronger when working together.

The first party was also raised in the same way.

“If that’s what Ian thinks… . I will try.”

Maybe it was because he succeeded in magic, but his confidence increased.

The period until the next exam is about 2 weeks.

In the meantime, Vivian decided to refine her magic more.

Density is maintained, but in the direction of reducing the size.

You can’t use magic that big in the exam hall.

With Vivian planning this and that by herself, I opened up the memories of the past.

I wanted to know if there was any information about the temporary exam around this time.

[Memory Correction]

I peeped at the memories that came to mind, and smiled faintly.

If this… , can make Vivian debut brilliantly.
