Episode 0. Why do you guys think I’m strong?
Boom! Bang! Bang!
I fell asleep in front of my desk and woke up at the sound of a violent knock on the door. He blinked his heavy eyes and focused his blurry vision.
“Mmm. This!”
I fell asleep while sorting magic scrolls by type.
Swipe the magic scroll covered with saliva. It was a fire-shaped magic scroll. The starting word was ‘fire’.
“Wouldn’t the magic effect disappear just because you dipped it in your saliva?”
I didn’t want to fly in vain as much as I bought it expensively. It was about the time I was watching the saliva stain disappear.
Boom! Bang! Bang!
What else is going to happen today?
With a sigh, he tore the magic scroll and picked up the sword standing next to the table.
I walked to the front door wearing a skirt.
“Umm… What’s up, Master?”
One human rubbing his eyes.
“It’s noisy. Master.”
A fox with a frown.
“It feels new to see Master at dawn.”
One yawning elf.
“I don’t remember calling you Master.”
I tackled three girls.
For one thing, he wasn’t a teacher, he was just a temporary caregiver. So that they can grow slowly.
Boom! Bang!
The sound of knocking on the door does not stop. Throwing them out seemed the only way.
“Ha, be quiet and hide.”
“Yes!”
When the children answer, only their faces stick out from their rooms. Is that hiding?
I sighed at the three immature sisters.
“Who are you? What brings you here-“
I unlocked the wooden lock and opened the front door.
There stood a tall man holding his ax high into the sky.
“Die!”
It’s too much to die as soon as you see it.
I made eye contact with the man with the ax that was slashing at me.
Thump!
The ax that was heading for my head hit the door frame.
Fortunately, it seems that Dokki Nam made a mistake and took the door frame instead of his head. At least he almost went to the goal.
“You, you, you, what are you, what are you?”
His body trembles like a spasm. I can’t even spit out words properly as if I feel the pressure.
I quietly took a step back, as if I had no intention of retrieving the ax I had taken down.
“This is the landlord.”
I said, pointing to the inside of the house with my thumb.
“Boo, married couple, I heard that this landlord is incompetent!”
You are incompetent…….
Well, that’s not wrong.
“What the hell is your identity, you! Why do you feel the aura of the Imperial Knights in your body?!”
Screams in fright. He even points with his finger at the beginning.
As I stared at him, he shuddered. Oh, here it is again…….
“Keuheugh! So, what the hell is this spirit that can’t even be explained?!”
I walked outside to keep my distance from the man who was withdrawing from the house. I forgot to close the door.
Looking behind the ax man, I saw several silhouettes ready to attack at any moment.
Hmmm. I have to say one more thing about this.
‘Hey. Even if you hide there, you can see everything, right? Please stop doing useless things and go back, right?’
“I’m sorry, but I’m a bit sensitive to living. Come out right now Otherwise, you will all die by my hand.”
…… What is this filtering.
Are you really going to be like this every time you talk?
Silhouettes flinch at my provocation. I reluctantly put my hand on the sword.
Now that it’s like this, I’m going to have to bluff it.
“Hey! Buy, save me!”
When the man sees it, he rolls over on the floor and crawls hurriedly into the forest.
“Fire.”
The moment the sword was pulled out, the sword became red hot and then the fire started to rise. The surroundings are illuminated by the flames soaring high into the sky.
“You were hiding there!”
“Crazy! What is that?!”
“Damn it! Everyone run away!”
“You can’t beat that!”
Those who were hiding run away.
By the time I judged that all of the people around me had disappeared, I extinguished the flame of the sword by blowing with my mouth.
To run away from the flames for bluffing, which grow according to magic power. Heh
I calmly inserted the sword as if nothing had happened from the beginning.
“…… Hmm. Good.”
I did one thing today too.
I almost died from being cut in the head by an axe. I couldn’t even react.
“Wow! Master-chan!”
“I didn’t do anything.”
“I want to be that strong too! What should I do?!”
The human girl asks in admiration. Looking at the fists curled to the point where both hands trembled, I felt like asking what kind of misunderstanding I was getting.
“As expected, Master, I respect you. I hope I can become a shield that blocks any attack like Master.”
“I didn’t block anything.”
“!”
At my answer, the fox girl made a surprised expression.
“That… okay. That grit that prevents the opponent from even thinking of attacking! That was the ultimate defense!”
What do you mean, kid…….
A girl with fox ears claps and her eyes light up. She had a face that seemed to have attained enlightenment just by looking at it. I’m sorry, did I misunderstand that?
“As expected, Master. It’s s*xy that you handle the fire attribute so well. You almost fell in love with me, Master.”
“This is a magic scroll effect.”
“I see. They said they weren’t even worthy of using magic. That’s why you used the magic scroll. I wish I could quickly grasp the capabilities of my opponent like Master.”
The elf girl is in serious agony. No, are you listening to me correctly?
Perhaps they didn’t even want to listen to my story, all three of them were immersed in their own world.
“Are you listening to me?”
“Master, Master!”
“…… Why?”
“Now I can cut down that garden in one fell swoop.”
Point to a mountain and say. What her fingertips pointed to was a mountainous area split into a huge gorge. It’s a bit big to call it a garden, right?
“If you can cut that, how different are you from your master?”
What are you doing in comparison? It’s already dehumanized.
Please don’t compare me to a jjeori who couldn’t even become an extra.
As we were watching the human girl, the fox girl suddenly intervened between us.
“Master, I can block not only Tina’s sword, but also all of Maria’s magic. Can this defeat even the demon lord?”
“Hmm. How about…….”
The fox girl is shocked by my ambiguous reaction.
“So, does that response mean that I am still lacking? Then tell me what to do next! I am confident that I will do anything to become stronger!”
I don’t know. How do i know
I told you everything I know.
“Master! What should I do next?”
This time the elf girl pulls my arm straight. Arm hurts Stop pulling, it’ll dislocate.
“Please suggest a direction. I haven’t learned the ultimate skill for all attributes yet. They couldn’t even drop Meteor from the sky. Although Tina can easily lift the mountain she cuts.”
…… Did that sound light?
“You… …. Do you know that I am thirteen now?”
“Isn’t thirteen years old enough? Look at Iris. You’re blocking all of my sword attacks?!”
The human girl points to the fox girl and expresses her regret.
That’s what Iris is great about. But she said that just because Iris blocked all of her sword attacks, Tina was by no means behind.
She said that if you send her to her capital right away, her imperial knights will try to scout her as her swordsman.
“Teacher said that great wizards have already realized all magic since they were ten years old. I am far short of it!”
Sorry, but that’s a different worldview setting. Even said he was a regressor.
I just jokingly said settings that I’ve seen somewhere. You said it as a joke before.
I remember the words, but why can’t I remember the word joke?
“Teacher, tell me!”
“Master! Let me know!”
You guys have already grown much more abnormally than I assumed.
How can girls just 13 years old cut and lift mountains?!
“…… Okay.”
When I didn’t answer, the elf girl murmured.
“You’re saying that I haven’t grown enough to tell you what’s next.”
A human and a fox flinched at the elf girl’s words. Three pairs of eyes look up at me.
The moment their eyes met, their pupils dilated. Shudder
“I see. Iris and I are still not even up to our master’s toes…….”
He bites her lower lip and clenches her fist.
“I will do my best.”
What are you talking about, are you stronger than me? I can’t cut a mountain like you.
“Sorry. Master. I was fooling around for nothing. But please know this much. I will definitely become as strong as Master wants.”
It would be nice if I became stronger, but let’s not compare ourselves?
“I agree with you. In order to become a person who suits Master, I will definitely try to master all of my attributes.”
I looked at the three in turn.
They showed a sense of defeat, but they were burning with passion for the possibility that there is still room for growth.
They were really cool and cute kids.
But you guys are there.
Why do you think I’m strong?
Because I’m weak for now?
It was just the ‘live’ skill that drove those bandits out, right?
It’s because of the ‘magic scroll’ that set the sword on fire, right?
But why do you think I’m strong? We’ve been living in the same house for three years, shouldn’t we be aware at this point?
I want to ask about the unfairness, but I couldn’t reveal my emotions as long as I had the ‘Expression Management’ skill that was activated automatically.
“…… Okay. Where do you do well?”
I replied nonchalantly, then turned around. I can feel their eager gaze running down my back.
To be honest, it stung a little.
