Only I Am Immune to Magic

Chapter 024. What did I say?

“Keep it!”

“Ki-ing! Meowing!”

“Keew!”

The road to the northwest of the Tmoline Mountains.

Aaron’s party was struggling with a group of gnolls that had emerged from the forest.

This hyena-headed bipedal monster wielded a rusty sword, mace, or ax that it had picked up from, threatening the party.

“Brother Zeke! Come this way!”

“Zeke! Dangerous!”

“young master! Take my hand!”

“Zeke! no!”

As originally planned, Viktor slipped back with Zeke and tried to keep an eye on him, but every time Aaron intervened between the two and prevented Zeke from escaping.

‘That bastard is real!’

Viktor suppressed the desire to slash Aaron with a single knife every time he interrupted him.

From Aaron’s point of view, it was an act to protect Zeke, so he couldn’t bear to say anything.

“Lord! One spilled!”

“Don’t worry!”

Rhaast and Aaron were in perfect harmony.

The fact that he had already dealt with dozens of gnolls without a single wound was like a comrade who had fought together for a long time.

“young master! Be careful!”

“Aww! Stop missing out!”

On the other hand, Viktor and Zeke’s situation was not so good.

Viktor wielded the sword skillfully, as expected of vice-captain Oddhaken, but Zeke had no real combat experience and could not use even half of what he had learned.

“Heh, heh, it’s over, heh… … .”

After a while. Finally, deciding that there was no chance of winning, the group of gnolls got scared and withdrew.

As soon as they left, Zeke sat down on the floor and let out a rough breath.

“Were we just dealing with goblins?”

“Um, maybe not? Didn’t Sir Viktor say only goblins were on this road?”

Aaron and Rhaast said as they looked at the corpses scattered around.

Despite the fierce battle, they were infinitely relaxed.

‘Damn it, why are you fighting so well?’

Viktor gritted his teeth as he saw the two talking as if they were making fun of him.

His plan was perfect.

He intended to take Zeke and run away when the gnolls burst out and surrounded the group.

However, as Aaron and Raast fought better than expected, that plan was in vain.

“Sir Viktor, is this a goblin? A little big for a goblin, right?”

Rhaast tapped the gnoll corpse scattered on the ground with his foot.

Viktor shook his head with a poop-chewed expression.

“Don’t make fun of me, Rast. I know very well that this is not a goblin.”

“I’m glad you know. They said only goblins appeared, but what happened to this? Didn’t the youngsters almost die?”

“This is the Tmoline Mountains. It’s not strange no matter when something happens. Actually, I tried to stop the youngsters when we left earlier, but I missed the timing.”

“The excuse sounds plausible.”

“… … It’s dangerous to keep putting the youngsters first, so we’d better take the lead now.”

“no.”

After hearing the conversation between the two, Aaron approached.

“You don’t have to. This is rather what I was hoping for. I was really disappointed because I thought only goblins appeared, but a good opponent came out right? This feeling of boiling blood is not too bad.”

He spat out words full of bravado and looked down at his sword.

The sword I brought from the mansion was lost in the middle of the night, so it was rushed from Mineville.

That sword that wasn’t even finished looked like a legendary treasured sword to Aaron’s eyes.

‘Stupid bastard. I’m blocking my way He pretended to be smart by himself, but in the end he was just a kid.’

Viktor nodded his head as if to continue.

“You’re the kind of person who faced Drake head-on. All right. Then, Aaron, please continue to lead the way. However, Sieg-sama is seriously injured, so I will look after him from behind.”

“Ugh, ugh! my arms! my arms!”

Zeke listened to Viktor’s words and wrapped his arms around him as if waiting.

It was a tiny cut from the tip of Gnoll’s axe, but the reaction was as if his arm had been cut off.

“You didn’t show it when you were fighting, and now you’re noticing your wounds. See you again, Zeke.”

“I saw the valiant fight of Master Zeke.”

“uh? that, yes! Do you know how hard I fought?”

Zeke was taken aback by the unexpected compliment, but nodded eagerly.

Viktor looked at him and touched his forehead.

‘You’re kidding me right now. You incompetent youngster.’

Because he grew up being swayed by Janice from a young age, his ability to judge is significantly inferior to that of his peers.

Normally, he would have understood this order, but the excitement of the first battle had not subsided, and it seemed that his judgment had worsened.

“Sir Viktor, please heal my brother. We will be servicing our weapons for a while.”

“All right.”

Aaron wiped the blood from his weapons and armor while Viktor took care of Zeke.

“Shall we take care of it soon? I don’t see any sign of remorse.”

Watching Viktor, Aaron spoke softly.

Rhaast nodded as he kept the trimmed sword in the scabbard.

“I see.”

* * *

After a while, the group left the gnoll’s realm and went deeper and deeper through the mountain trails.

There were roads even in these dense mountains, but it was so sparsely populated that there were many times when I was confused whether it was a road or not.

“Raast, is this the right way?”

Victor asked Raast, who was in the lead.

Rhaast hadn’t looked at the map since leaving Gnoll’s realm.

No matter how long I’ve lived in Tmoline, hiking without a map was a very dangerous move.

“Stop talking and follow me. Because I know the good way.”

Raast continued walking without looking back.

It was as if what he was doing was telling the servant not to fall behind and follow him.

‘Damn it.’

Viktor stared at Raast’s back.

It seems that trust has been completely broken since the play came out earlier.

“Couldn’t it be that you’re going on a different road than the road of the map? Keep in mind that it becomes more dangerous if you deviate from it.”

“Wow, that’s a lot of talk. Did you know?”

Rhaast waved his hand roughly as if he didn’t even need to hear it.

Finally, Viktor realized that speaking only hurts his mouth and stopped giving advice.

Sabak Sabak-

It’s getting closer and closer, but the snow is still piled up on the mountain.

Evidence that the party is heading for high ground.

Viktor, who had been patient, finally opened his mouth again.

“Raast! Is this really the right way? This is a matter where the lives of the youngsters are at stake! If you keep talking nonsense, you will have to cross swords with me!”

Until now, I had been thinking about it, but when I saw the thick snow, I was convinced.

This was not the road he had planned.

“You just have to cross this ridge. Be patient.”

Rhaast did not ignore his words this time.

Viktor, who was about to draw his sword immediately, decided to endure it one last time.

“If there is nothing special even after crossing the ridge, I will take the young masters and go home right away, so know that.”

“Yes, yes.”

The party left behind the war of nerves between the two and crossed the ridge.

Then, I saw a large cave with an open mouth close by.

“Voila! See that cave? What did I say?”

“What about the cave? You’re not supposed to be staying over there, are you?”

“It’s almost time for the sun to set. I came here because I thought it would be dangerous to sleep on the side of the road. What’s the matter?”

“You mean you went in knowing there was something in there?”

“That cave is a hideout I used to use often when I lived in Tmolin. I used to spend the night there when the sun went down after hunting with my friends.”

Rhaast looked at the cave with a nostalgic expression.

Aaron asked, stroking his chin.

“Will a monster leave a cave like that? It looks like the top predators will use it as a nest.”

“Ugh, I thought Master Aaron was on my side, but this is disappointing.”

“Where are you on my side when your life is at stake?”

“hmm… … . All right. If that’s the case, I’ll check it out for myself.”

With Aaron helping Viktor, Rast left the group alone and went into the cave alone.

After a few minutes, he came out intact and waved at the hiding party.

“Come in quickly!”

“Hmm, it looks really empty.”

Aaron looked at the cave thoughtfully for a moment, then left.

‘damn. It’s ruined.’

Viktor chewed his lips as he watched Raast waving his hand triumphantly.

If I didn’t die from the Gnoll attack, I tried to lure him into the troll’s territory and tear him limb from limb, but he came out of nowhere and things went completely wrong.

It seemed that the initiative of the journey had passed to him.

“Sir Viktor, what happened?”

Zeke was also nervous.

To be dragged around like this after boasting that I would finish my work within the day and go home.

At this point, I had to go all the way to the Northwest to help them.

“Is this all part of your plan? huh? Please answer me. Answer me!”

Unable to hold back his impatience, Zeke grabbed Viktor’s shoulder and shook him.

Viktor’s face contorted and he violently shook his hand.

“Let go of this! Why are you doing this to me after you ruined everything!”

“What, what? What did you just say?”

Zeke stuttered with his mouth wide open.

A knight who had sworn to protect him at the risk of his life before departure poured out such barbed words to his lord.

Something unimaginable was happening.

Viktor sighed deeply as if holding back his anger when he saw the embarrassed Zeke.

“Whoa… … . It’s all wrong now. If the Bocchan hadn’t been scared by that fox-like slave, the job would have been much easier… … . Why are you so lacking in pulpit?”

“wonder… … You can’t do this to me. I trusted you and followed you all the way here… … .”

“young master.”

Viktor stopped Sieg from crying and trying to speak.

His eyes were cold as he looked at Zeke.

“This is not a mansion where you just talk and you get rice and a warm fireplace. If you want to save your life, stay alert. and.”

Viktor paused for a moment and closed his eyes for a long time before opening them.

“Please, ask the lady in the foolish mansion. I am not your mother.”

“… … .”

Zeke couldn’t say anything more.

There was no sympathy or responsibility in Viktor’s eyes anymore.

‘If you want to save your life, keep your mind straight.’

His threatening voice echoed in my ears.

Now, if his life is in danger, he will gladly throw his one and only precious boy as bait.

“Victor! Zeke! The sun will be setting soon! Welcome!”

“yes! going!”

At Aaron’s words, Viktor jumped up and ran away.

Zeke just watched him walk away with a blank face.

As Raast said, there was nothing inside the cave.

I wasn’t sure if it was true or not that he used to come often as a child, but I couldn’t deny that it was a great place to spend the night anyway.

“But it’s a bit strange.”

While preparing to camp in the depths of the cave, Viktor tilted his head.

“What else is strange?”

Rhaast wriggled his eyebrows as if he were starting again.
