Jason sat inside the small stone house with Master Merlin.The living room gave a slight scent of herbs and he felt some intense mana coming from one of the rooms. He didn’t care much about that since it wasn’t very useful to him at the moment. Magic stones were good to increase the opening rate of magic nodes in a person’s body, but not until he reached the novice level. “Jason, before teaching you the magic, let me give you the knowledge about how magic works and what it is.”“Yes, Master.”“Very well then. Listen, my young student.”Jason saw a content smile on Master Merlin’s face. Of course, he knew many things about magic, but he wasn’t lying when he told Master Merlin that he was ready to learn. What he knew was the knowledge that came out during a time of catastrophe, and he never had a high enough position to learn everything. He would listen to everything even if there was no change in his knowledge.…Jason tried his best to add what he knew and listen to what he learned

‘That is a lot of people.’Jason sneaked out of the back of the Inn to avoid all the players waiting for him outside.‘The war might start within a one-year to two-year period. What should I do?’Unless he could gain enough strength, his only other option would be to leave Alexandria. ‘I will first do what I came here to do.’First, he had to scout the locations of bandits. According to Boris, there were possibly three bandit groups in the area. ‘I can get more information if I meet the mayor. But I will just go to him for rewards.’With his status as a Wizard Initiate, he could easily meet the mayor of Forestedge, but he was too lazy to do it at the moment. ‘I should buy some basic equipment.’He at least needed a pair of shoes for the time being.“Excuse me….”Jason was about to enter the small shop when a voice interrupted his thoughts.“Do you need a map?”Jason immediately noticed the armband on the man’s arm. Even without that, the white clothes made his identity obvious. “A

“Have a seat, Sir Initiate.”Simon showed the seat to Jason.“Hm….”Jason sat on the couch, but his eyes were on the two older men behind the mayor. He felt the vibe of the Elites from them.“Let’s get to the point. I am here about the bandits.”“Ba… Bandits?”Simon wiped the sweat off his forehead. He didn’t expect to hear something like this from a Wizard Initiate. ‘Was he robbed?’If so, he would be in deep trouble as the mayor.‘Which idiotic bandit would rob a Wizard Initiate? Even if they did, why let the man walk alive? Wait! Did they kill him? Then this alien must be very angry after coming back to life.’Simon wanted to strangle the stupid bandits. “Sir… We… We are ready to compensate.”“Huh? For what?”“You… Weren’t you robbed?”‘Are you dumb?’Jason simply stared at the mayor, failing to speak.“Sigh.”He took out the map after an awkward silence and placed it on the table.“There are two bandits groups, here and here….”He showed the X marks he put on the map. “Small gr

“How did you do that?”Jason was a bit surprised to see Hanna awake when he logged in.“I am not from this world.”Hanna was looking at him with fearful eyes.“Is that… Why… You are not afraid of me?”“Maybe.”He was still in the same spot as when he logged out.“These….”She showed him the things he left on the ground. “I will just take one bun. You can have the rest.”He didn’t try to take the cloak or the rest of the buns. He simply took one for the road before leaving the alley. …“Sir Initiate.”The moment he left the alley, he met two soldiers waiting for him. Jason realised one of them was the mayor’s personal guard. “I am Julian. I am here to deliver a message from My Lord.”“What is it?”“The meeting is ready, Sir. I am here to guide you there.”“Now?”“Yes, sir.”“Let’s go.”Jason was about to move when he realised the other guard was hesitating, looking into the alley.“Why do people think that girl is cursed?”“Sir…? She… She says weird things about people, sir. Her… He

“An… Apprentice of a Wizard? Like a real wizard? Are these guards crazy?”“Do they want to kill us all?”"What… What are we going to do? A Wizard can kill us all."The attitude of the people of the town turned upside down in an instant.They haven’t really met a real wizard, and they might never see one in their entire lives. However, everyone knew what a Wizard meant. It was absolute power. Power to wipe out a small town like Forestedge. No one wanted justice anymore. No one cared if Jason was a stranger. It was all about their life and death. “Sir Initiate is the Apprentice of Master Merlin. If anyone has a death wish, don’t drag the entire Forestedge into it. If something like this happens again, I will personally deal with them. Be grateful, our Lord will somehow talk with the Lord Initiate to let you all live.”Julian made his standing clear, which was the standing of his Lord. No one wanted to offend the sky. He knew Jason was letting them off, but it was an opportunity to bo
