Man, Nothing in This World Goes My WayThe atmosphere of the delegation approaching the city gates could not have been gloomier.Although the group consisted mostly of young children, as representatives of a nation, they ought to have been holding their heads high and brimming with confidence. Yet every single one of them wore a dark expression, as if heading to a funeral.Among them, the complexion of the Knight Commander riding at the very front was the worst of all.'To think my future would be cut…-

A land of blessed mana.Beloved by mages thanks to the abundant mana held within the land itself, it was a place rumored to have an unusually high number of brilliant minds.Valen, the capital of Veilan—a nation of scholars boasting a diverse intelligentsia, and a nation of mages.Three things were famous here. The first was the Tower of Mages, where the greatest mages gathered, and the second was Signati, the impregnable rampart that was the culmination of all Barrier Magic, created by the mages of that…

"Jinny, I'm going down first, so wash cleanly all the way behind your ears and come down."Anel said as she threw on her clothes."Okay."We had decided that after everyone rested, we would gather at sunset for a grand meal.That was because Shabel had promised to treat us once he collected the transport fee.Originally, I had wanted to look around the library, but delicious food was tempting too.And the most urgent thing was properly soaking my body in warm water to…

Once we made it out of the lower reaches of the mountain range, the surrounding brush thinned out noticeably. Far in the distance, the city walls of Valen, the capital of Veilan, came into view.Compared to the sky-piercing, magnificent walls that encircled Sharan, the capital of Dmitri, they looked somewhat shabby."Jinny, right over there is Valen, the capital of Veilan."Anel pointed toward the capital, which was still a little ways off."I see it. Though compared to the walls of Sharan, they…

"Nothing to lose! Undine! Ador!"When Ador appeared, the surroundings grew a bit brighter.I turned my eyes toward the Ogre.Honestly, since I hadn't tested it properly yet, I couldn't guarantee its power, but I was the only magic user here.And it was an objective fact that magical attacks worked better on an Ogre than physical ones.The only problem was that I was ten years old!"Undine! Aqua Ball at the Ogre!"Sploosh!Thanks to practicing it a few times, Undine's magic had…

A massive shadow landed right in front of my nose with a heavy thud. Bloodcurdling eyes glowing red, sharp teeth gleaming in rows like a shark's.My body stiffened. A symptom I had experienced once before was happening again. My legs wouldn't listen to me.Why does nothing ever go right for me?Through my frozen eyes, I saw the Ogre's hand slowly rising into the air. I needed to run away, yet my mind went blank for a moment.There was no way I could dodge an Ogre, an apex Monster that was fast,…

"Wait, wa..."Pushing my way forward through a crowd of muscle-bound men was far too difficult for me.Kenta wasn't flustered by the thing wrapped around his neck. On the contrary, in that brief instant, he wedged his hands between his throat and Lai.Veins bulged fiercely on Kenta's shoulders and forehead.Thick muscles twitched, yet Lai had no intention of letting go.Lai had only been holding back all this time, so he must have really lost his temper now.Because my voice couldn't…

"Huh?""Get over here. You need to earn your keep!"Tch, as if I even eat that much. Even as I grumbled, I had no choice but to do as Shabel ordered.In this mercenary group, Shabel's word was law.After all, it was Shabel who had ultimately decided to take me all the way to Veilan.Although Anel had made the suggestion, she said it would have been impossible without his permission, so for now, I had to count him as my benefactor."Turn on a light, squirt."Even if I did resent…

"Argh! Where the hell did this bastard of a snake go! Just wait till I find you!"The heavy, thudding footsteps stomping the ground were strong enough for me to feel them even while hanging from the cliff."That ball of light that attacked you is right here, along with the snake that bit your ass and bolted?""Kuaagh! The sworn enemy of my ass!"Lai, of all places to bite, why did you have to get him on the ass? Still, judging by his voice, he thankfully sounded like a man with…

"Get this barrier out of the water. Can you do it?"Undine fluttered her small mermaid tail and pulled the barrier up with both hands. How should I put it—watching this little creature no bigger than my palm struggling to move such a huge barrier made me clasp my hands together as if in prayer without even realizing it."You can do it, Undine!"Right now, you're the only one I can count on!Perhaps because the current was so strong, my Mana was bottoming out at a rapid pace even…
