Wizards are Sensitive

Clickety-clack, clickety-clack-

The carriage to Koruntum was shakier than I expected.

There were eight of us in total, and it seemed like most of them knew each other.

Of course, I didn't know anyone, so I sat quietly and read the documents Esily gave me.

As expected, the documents didn't contain anything too important.

Well, I expected as much.

No matter how much Esily tried, she wasn't in an important enough position.

She probably wouldn't know the detailed situation in Koruntum.

Still, I was able to get a general idea of the place.

‘…It’s a bit dangerous.’

To put it nicely, it was a place of romance, but to put it bluntly, it was a place where the logic of power reigned supreme.

Of course, there was a lord, but he couldn't pay much attention to the city.

There were just too many monsters.

As I was reading the documents with that thought in mind, the men who had been chatting next to me started talking to me.

It seemed like they were curious about me sitting still and reading.

"Hey, who the hell are you?"

The first thing out of his mouth was incredibly rude.

It felt like he was looking down on me.

But there was no need to fight.

Maybe that's just how he talks.

I could always retaliate later if he crossed the line.

With that in mind, I answered.

"Ah, I'm also on my way to Koruntum for a request."

"Then why are you carrying around that strange piece of paper?"

"I don't know much about Koruntum... I thought I should do some research before I go."

"You're doing something useless. Koruntum is a place where you experience things with your body."

"I'll take care of that."

I was the type of person who always did a little research before starting anything, so I didn't need to keep listening to him.

I didn't really want to fight, but it was bothering me that he kept yapping next to me.

I needed to gather as much information as possible before I went, and he was getting in the way of that.

"...What did you just say?"

"Ah, please be quiet. I have things to do."

I usually didn't make enemies, but my personality wasn't nice enough to be kind to someone who was picking a fight with me like this.

Of course, I wouldn't bother if it was too much of a hassle... but right now, annoyance outweighed the hassle.

"Hey, coachman. Stop for a moment."

"If we're going to stay on schedule, we need to keep going."

"Yeah, just stop. Don't make me annoyed."

"...Alright."

There was nothing the coachman could do.

He wasn't that strong.

With that in mind, I asked,

"Why did you suddenly ask the carriage to stop? We're on a tight schedule."

"Shut up and get up. Let's have a go."

Taken aback by the sudden turn of events, I looked at the people around us.

They seemed to be smiling, waiting for us to fight.

That's why I sighed.

Why were there always people like this?

I didn't want to be prejudiced against adventurers, but I was getting a little annoyed.

"Haah, let's get this over with quickly then."

"That's what I wanted to hear."

It might seem strange to suddenly start fighting like this, but in the Middle Ages, adventurers would often fight on the spot if they got into an argument on the road.

But I hated this kind of culture.

I didn't understand why they had to fight.

It would be nice if everyone could just get along.

With that in mind, I thought about how to deal with the muscular adventurer in front of me.

To be honest, I could kill the guy in front of me with one hand.

But the method of killing him was the problem.

"Hmm..."

Just by looking at him, I could tell that he was an adventurer who mainly used strength, so I thought it would be good to make him feel the difference in our strength.

Normally, I hated doing this kind of childish thing, but it was better to suppress people like this early on.

Otherwise, they would just do the same thing to other people later.

So, I spoke to the muscular man standing in front of me.

"Make it quick. I'm in a hurry."

"Hmph, you're talking big."

The muscular man said that and took a distance from me. Then, he rushed towards me in an instant and threw a punch.

[Thought Acceleration]

[Strength]

[Mana Shield]

I cast three magic formulas simultaneously and poured mana into them.

My accelerated thoughts read the trajectory of the enemy's fist, and my fist, strengthened by Strength, collided with his.

And a moment later.

"Alright, then I'll make myself comfortable."

I put the muscular man on the floor and took the innermost seat where he had been sitting.

It wasn't that I had picked a fight with him on purpose just because his seat looked comfortable.

Really.

Clickety-clack, clickety-clack-

The carriage continued on its way and stopped when night fell.

It was dangerous to travel at night.

By then, the muscular man who had fainted woke up.

He looked at me, and the confidence he had before was gone. He sat down quietly in the corner.

It seemed like he was quite shocked by what I did to him.

"Haaam..."

Come to think of it, I was getting sleepy too.

So, I decided to go to sleep.

It was probably the first time I'd ever slept outside with adventurers like this.

So, I thought it would be better to set up some safety measures before I went to sleep.

I cast Alarm and Barrier and lay down.

Just as I was about to fall asleep.

"Um... We need to decide who's going to take the first watch... Would you like to decide by drawing lots...?"

A man who looked the weakest among them approached me and spoke.

I guess everyone else knew each other except me.

That's probably why the weakest one came up to me and asked.

I didn't like it very much.

I didn't like people who used the weak.

It reminded me of when I was a beggar, and it pissed me off even more.

"Why should I take the first watch? I'm going to sleep, so don't bother me."

I had the Alarm spell on me anyway, so if anyone tried to touch me or if we were attacked, I would wake up immediately.

And even if we were attacked from a distance, Barrier would protect me.

Most attacks would be blocked by Barrier.

And even if Barrier was breached, I still had the necklace Silvia gave me.

Thinking that, I closed my eyes.

*

Chirp, chirp-

When I opened my eyes, I heard a commotion around me.

They were probably all awake and getting ready to leave.

So, I got up too.

[Purify]

I cleansed myself with Purify and checked what the others were doing.

Sizzle-

The people around me were grilling meat, as if they had brought back the meat of some animal.

Eating meat for breakfast.

But I wasn't particularly envious.

Because I had jerky.

To me, food was just a means to fill my stomach, so I didn't need to spend a lot of money on it.

Of course, I'd eat it if I had it.

Thinking that, I took out the jerky from my pocket and started chewing on it.

It wasn't exactly pleasant to the touch, but it tasted good, so it didn't matter.

I don't know why other people didn't like it.

It's full of calories and fills you up.

As I was thinking about that, I posted a quick message on the forum.

When I had nothing to do, posting on the forum was the best.

It made time fly by.

[Content: (Photo) Starting the morning off easy with some jerky lol It’s good… The texture is something else though]

After posting, I chewed on my jerky and looked at the wide-open scenery around me.

It felt refreshing.

It just made me feel good.

Thinking that, I enhanced my vision.

[Vision Enhancement]

I wanted to see far away.

It was a waste to just look around when we were in such a wide-open plain.

And then.

“...Hmm?”

Something I shouldn't be seeing came into view.

I saw trolls running towards us.

I immediately focused my vision and took a picture.

It was one of the tips for using the forum. Mages and people with good eyesight could take pictures of things far away if they focused hard enough after enhancing their vision, and they could upload those pictures to the forum.

‘I have to upload this.’

This was definitely something I had to upload to the forum. So I uploaded it right away.

[Title: We’re on our way to Koruntum and trolls just showed up lolololol]

[Content: (Photo) What are these guys? lol]

There were two trolls, and they were incredibly fast.

They seemed different from the average troll.

So I focused my vision and—

“Ah, variants.”

They were variant trolls this time.

But I didn’t step forward.

There were adventurers here, so there was no need for me to jump in first.

So I decided to watch.

I wanted to see how the others fought.
