My Second Glimpse at Magic

With no other choices rather than sleeping outside unprotected, I added a 5 Medium Bronze debt to my forced debt.

The room that they gave me is the old warehouse, about half the size of a tennis court. The room is pretty spacious but dirty as hell, there are broken glass everywhere, an old broken cauldron is at the middle of the room, broken shelves lying around with old dusty books, cobwebs are in every corner, there are no windows, and it reeks like rotten flesh on the far corner at the back.(Probably dissected stuffs).

"What the hell where am I supposed to sleep here"(Zack).

"Well that's your problem. You asked for a place to sleep not a bedroom and even if you asked for one, we don't have one for guests"(Hana).

Hana then gave me a lamp and leaves.

"Do whatever you want with that room, but if you tries to escape you're dead meat. Ohh you can't escape after all since we got this place on guard."(Jean).

Jean leaves as well with Mina.

Damn those shits I'll kill them for this.

Since I don't have anything else to do I cleaned up a space for me in a corner. To kill some time and to doze me off to sleep I tried to read some old books nearby, but unfortunately I am unable to read those stuffs. Seems like the blessing only works for communication. So I sat on a corner and went brainstorming instead.

For what I knew I'm transmigrated in this world, did I perhaps got summoned to kill a demon lord, if so then some dudes will be welcoming me in a decent place or what so ever. Or am I an accidental summoned or a failed summoned. So what's my purpose here?. Why am I summoned in the middle of nowhere?. (sigh) Seems that this questions remains unsolved for a while. Usually on some manga that I read the MC finds the reason later on the story. Is there some status bar here somewhere?. If so then the trio would have asked me or used a spell to identify me. Can I use magic?.

Zack stood up.

Ok usually the MC cast a spell or some sort to test there magic.

Zack launches his hands forward attempting to cast magic.

Well nothing probably is I focus on some point I can learn it.

Zack closed his eyes, breaths in, relaxes himself and proceed to cast by flowing his hand.

Still nothing hmm... probably if I picture a magic spell it will work. Lets see, how about a light spell.

Zack closed his eyes, focuses and relaxes, He then proceeds to do the same cast.

Please work this time.

Come forth light.

Zack opened his eyes and found a sphere of glowing light on the grasp of his hands.

I did it, I made magic.

Zack sits back and continues to practice for a few minutes.

Phew that's tiring, for what I knew in order to chant magic it uses Mana Points in the process. Since I'm new I'll probably empty my MP if I continues on practicing this. Better to get some rest right now.

Zack proceeds to sleep

(Beep)

(Notice Zack learned Spell No 7. [Luz])

(The next day)

"Hey wake up slouch head" (Jean)

"Ugh"(Zack)

"Hurry up and get dressed were off to the village"(Jean).

"Right".

Wonder what that thing last night is.

After cleaning myself up the three of us went to a nearby village.

As we walk by the road we met a bald old man with blue eyes along the way.

"Hoho morning miss Hana".(Old Man)

"Ohh mornin' Mister Lar".(Hana)

"Ya got some of potions with ya. I accidentally cut my arm with my sickle earlier".(Lar)

"Yeah here(Hana held a potion to Mr. Lar) that'll be 4 Small Bronze coins"

"Ohh thanks, here my pay".(Lar)

"Be careful next time, and don't overwork".(Hana)

How come she is nice to others but not on me?

After a few minutes walking down a trail and up to a hill we reached a village. From the hill I can see the village clearly. The village is surrounded by a wooden fenced and the houses looks like houses in the middle ages though the bottom floor walls is entirely fortified with stone bricks.(probably for monster defense).

The guard on duty on a post welcomed us.

"Yo Hana sup".(Guard)

"Wilford ehh so on duty today I though you are only on duty for 4 days per week".(Hana)

"Well since Alc is still ain't back from the monster hunt there's still no other replacement for him.(Wilford)

"I see have a good day then".(Hana)

Afterward the guard lifted up the gate.

"Thanks".(Hana)

"Ohh who's the new guy? Wilbur said while he's holding up the gate.

"This (pointing at Zack) meh... some dude who's in debt".(Hana)

"Heh you better be careful dude this sucker will suck your money dr-"(Wilbur)

Just before the guard is about to say the last words Hana gave him a neck chop, which almost made Wilbur drop the gate

"You know you should quit yapping lies ehh" Hana said with a taunting look at Wilbur.

Well you don't have to warn me about it since she is doing it at me already.

"By the way that gate looks heavy (It's an approximately 8 foot tall, 3 timber log bounded gate after all) you're sure is a one tough dude".(Zack)

"Heh what else can you expect from this post guard, with this muscles and magic strengthening baby I can lift 3 times the weight of that stuff".(Wilbur)

Strengthening Magic?

"Seeesh what a drag even though he only know one spell".(Hana)

"What did you said!?".(Wilbur)

"Oh well we gotta go we don't have time for muscle freaks like you".(Hana)

"Grr". Wilbur vents his frustration.

I wonder if I can use that as well.

It seems that this world revolves with magic after all.
