CHAPTER 14

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

"Is that even a wild boar!?"

A young man of short stature and muscular body was running away with all he got while a gigantic wild boar was chasing him.

The young man had ash blonde hair, while he was wearing a cape consisting of a black bull insignia.

"Shouldn't we rescue him?"

A girl who looked around 15 years old asked. She had a slender build and pink eyes. She possessed long, silver colored hair which were tied down in two pigtails.

"Nah... I'm sure he'll be fine. He's pretty tough."

Replied a man of lean build and light grey hair. He was also wearing the same black bull robe while leaning on to a weird looking bike.

They were in the middle of what looked like a forest clearing.

The wild boar chased down the young man relentlessly with literally fire burning on its tusk.

The girl saw his condition and decided to help him, she raised both of her hands in front of her while a glowing book started floating near her.

A big ball of water materialized in air as she targeted her aim at the boar still pursuing the young man. The ball of light launched itself, moving in the direction of the wild beast with a incredible speed.

Unfortunately, the trajectory of the water ball changed all of a sudden when the water ball was about to hit the boar and instead flung the young man into the air.

"WHY ME!?"

"T-That was intentional, Ok?"

The girl defended herself with a embarrassed blush on her face.

The young man rotated in midair, another book started floating beside him as if a guardian sprit. The hilt of a giant sword peaked out from the book.

The young man pulled out the sword completely still in midair and did a vertical slash against the wild boar's face.

The boar staggered backwards a little and fell unconscious after a moment.

The young man landed back on the ground with his heavy sword rested on his shoulder.

"Phew... That was close!"

"Well done, Asta!"

The man who was just chilling at the sidelines till now stood up and cheered.

"Did you see that, MAGNA SENPAI? I took it out in one hit!!"

"That was really amazing, Asta!"

Both Magna and Asta laughed together triumphantly like they had won over an epic battle.

Sigh…

These two…

Noelle glanced at them with a look of dismay.

*THUD!*

There was a sudden sound of something falling or hitting the ground with a hard impact.

Issei's body landed right beside the duo of Asta and Magna making them flinch in surprise.

"What is that, Magna senpai!?"

Magna took a closer look and realized that it was a boy around 14-15 years old.

"IS HE DEAD!?"

Asta asked with a loud tone which startled Magna who was about to poke Issei's body with a stick.

"Don't shout in my ears, Dammit!!"

"SORRY, MAGNA SENPAI!!"

*Rustle!*

Issei groaned a little as he opened his eyes while moving his arms sluggishly.

He was thrown into some sort of place which felt like being in a washing machine. His mind was still stunned when he was forced into a free fall.

He felt few presences behind him, tilting his head back a little while rubbing the back of his head, he asked

"Who the hell are you guys?"

------

"Why are you all following me?" Issei asked with a annoyed look as he realized that Asta, Magna and Noelle were right behind.

"I-It's not like we are following you or anything, ok? We just have to go in the same direction!" Noelle replied with a slight blush.

"Moreover…!" Magna spoke as he did a JoJo pose.

"We are THE Magic Knights! Black Bulls! We won't let someone as suspicious as you get away!"

"But Magna senpai! Weren't we supposed to be on a mission!?"

"No worries, Asta! That village is also our destination! We can kill two birds with one stone!"

"Amazing! Magna senpai!!"

Asta had stars in his eyes while Magna was standing on a boulder as if he was the most genius person on the earth.

'What the hell is wrong with this bunch!'

Issei thought weirdly as he glanced at the duo who were in their own world.

"This is nothing new for them…"

Noelle said, she was also standing away with them because of embarrassment. She knew what Issei would be thinking.

"Just ignore them.."

Yeah. Like that would help..

It is logically impossible to ignore some people doing ridiculous things in the middle of the road!

Even if you don't want to bother with them, you will still slow down and take a look at them…

Maybe in amusement?

Curiosity?

But they will, without a doubt, stop and watch them.

Issei ignored their comidic display a continued treading towards the pathway which hopefully led to the nearest settlement.

Just as he was pondering what he should do in this world, a thick layer of mist blocked his path allowing no chance of taking a peek ahead.

Huh?

What is going on?

Issei was startled by the sudden change in environment. It wasn't anything strange since he had just arrived in this world. He didn't even knew what type of world was this?

But looking at the grassland and the pure air, uncontaminated by any sort of pollution, he came to a decision that this was a medieval world.

Now the question would be, is this a magic world?

He never watched a anime where he has watched this type of setting and even the world people like them…,

Issei credited it to Liam's incompetence in watching at least some more animes. But…

He knew that it wouldn't help him even if he would start blaming everyone else. He could now go along with the flow and see what happens…

Well, that was what he thought…

But looking at the thick wall of mist ahead of him, he had to change his thoughts...

Since he could clearly sense that the mist was made by mana.

There is no doubt about it!

This is a magical world with real life mages!!
