Chapter 43.2: Space Leap (1)

A lot of time had passed since they passed through various cities of the Third Lord’s territory.

One of the major cities north of the First Lord’s territory, Feuselt…

The first thing I did after arriving in the city on the shores of the Great Lakes of Gaitan was to find someone.

A person who was absolutely necessary to explore the lake.

After finding a place to stay, as always, I went to the Adventurers’ Guild first.

One of the main tasks of the guild staff was to connect the client with the adventurer, and that was the biggest reason for their existence.

Therefore, it was usually quickest to find a guild that met the conditions. Even if the conditions were strict.

“Um, so…”

The staff of the Adventurer’s Guild who listened to me asked as if to confirm.

“You mean you’re looking for adventurers who can use both enchantment magic and underwater breathing magic at the same time?”

I nodded.

“And it would be better if they had some knowledge about the Gaitan Lake.”

The staff smiled a little awkwardly. It was a laugh showing that she’s a bit troubled by my request.

I understood her reaction.

Because the conditions I was requesting were pretty difficult to meet, and I really wanted to find an adventurer who would fit them perfectly.

Enchantment magic.

As the name suggested, it was a magic that granted magical effects to targets other than the caster.

In this world, items imprinted with magic were only auxiliary tools for mages to use magic more easily.

The more complex the engraving was, the more quickly it would be erased from the mana stone, or something like that. I read a book about it at my castle, but I couldn’t quite remember it.

So, mages engraved only the important parts of the rite and used it by filling in only the middle, but those who did not know magic cannot use it because it was not possible.

In ancient times, there was a technique for storing magic skills for a long time, but that technique no longer existed until the present day.

So, even in the game, items with active magic that could be used by people other than mages were quite rare.

Anyway, for that reason, enchantment magic had a very high status in this world.

Even more so because there weren’t many mages that could use it.

In this world, magical power must also be innate. So if the nature of someone’s magic did not match a certain type of magic, no matter how high their mana was, it was impossible to use it. This was the case with space-based magic or enchantment magic.

There must be someone who could at least use underwater breathing magic.

There’s a question on why should a mage even learn such a skill.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with learning it, but it’s normal to learn much more useful and powerful magic.

In a word, it would be very difficult to find a mage who could use underwater breathing magic along with enchantment magic.

In order to explore the lake, I had to find it, so I had no choice but to tell the truth to the guild staff.

“Aren’t there any adventurers who meet these conditions?”

To be honest, I didn’t have high expectations, so if she said no, I thought of giving up and looking for another way.

If I used my influence as a Lord, I might find someone who met the criteria somehow. Or I could visit the market in this city and looked for some appropriate items.

However, an unexpected reply came from the staff.

“That’s… There is only one adventurer that comes to mind, but I know he’s not in this city right now.”

“Then where is he?”

“I’m sorry, I also don’t know. But he often stops by the city. If you’re staying here, I can send you a message once this adventurer appears here?”

I nodded and handed the employee a silver coin.

“I’d appreciate it if you let me know. You can send a message to room 305 of the Teria Inn. You can tell him there’s a client looking for him.”

“Oh, yes! I see!”

Pricking her animal ears, she quickly accepted the money.

For now, I decided to stay in the city a little longer and wait for the adventurer to come.

Had a week passed like that?

The news I had been waiting for at the inn came.

“He’s in the city now?”

The staff who came to the front of the room nodded and said that she was a little sorry.

“Yes, young master. I was going to come with him after telling him about you, but the person himself said that you have to come in person…”

I smiled and left the inn room.

Yes, the one who needed the service should be the one to go.

I and Asher immediately followed her and moved to the tavern where there were adventurers.

“That’s him.”

She pointed to the bearded man sitting alone at a table in the tavern’s corner.

I approached him.

He, who was drinking beer alone, looked at me and the staff behind me, and asked with a good smile.

“Ah, are you the one who is looking for me?”

I imagined he would be rude because he demanded that I came in person, but it didn’t seem like that was the case.

I glanced at him once and opened my mouth.

“Are you an adventurer who can use enchantment magic and underwater breathing magic?”

He scratched the bridge of his nose and snorted.

“Well, yes. First, may I ask what you’re going to hire me for?”

“I’m going to explore Gaitan Lake.”

“Ah, Gaitan Lake…”

The man smiled and said.

“Did you get any treasure map? Anyway, if you’re thinking about exploring that big lake, it seemed that you know what you need.”

I sat in front of him.

“Okay, let me ask you a little more about enchantments and underwater breathing magic first.”
