The Mysterious Black Magician Chapter 25
Advertisement
No matter what Yman said, Instructor Goki could not just believe him this time. Yman almost succeeded in killing multiple monsters in the last battle, although in the end, he failed.
So he could not believe him fully right now. Even if he said that there was a higher chance that they could kill it.
Goki knew that this was just a baseless assumption by this young man.
So Goki said, "no is no, sorry Lady Almina, your father will get mad when something happens to their princess, so, I cannot agree with you this time."
Goki said and turned his back at them while saying, "go back to your carriages this is an order!" He was waving his hand to signal them to go back.
After hearing him. Almina felt helpless. If it's about her parents, there was nothing she could do.
She glanced sadly at the back of the person in front of her.
He was slightly shorter than her and his back curled slightly when he was standing. But even so, she was feeling warm while watching this person's back.
They were surprised to know that Almina and Instructor Goki had some kind of connection.
Kiko knitted his brows when he noticed that Almina had a sad expression. He won't let this girl down.
"Wait, Instructor Goki! I can assure you that we can kill it and make Almina safe, sir!"
Goki stopped his feet and glanced at Kiko.
"Kiko, I know you are talented, but you know — overconfidence may lead to one's disaster. You guys are just newbies. So being arrogant and overconfident is common at your age. But...
Don't make yourself full just because you have the talent. Many talented trainees with that kind of thinking before you had died early in the process."

Yman smiled. He knew that his words had some deep on it. He couldn't argue with him in this regard.
He doesn't really care if they were going to fight it or not. He was just feeling curious about the web of this monster, and the crystal-like object that was embedded on the monster's forehead.
He knew it was a Magic Cryst.
It cost a lot of gold points. It can be processed into accessories or embedded into a weapon or armor.
Yman thought |such valuable objects could not be found easily.|
Not all monsters had that in them. Only those special ones.
This Magic Cryst also increased the monsters fighting capability or ability. So Yman assumed that this monster would not be easy to deal with.
But he wanted to try somehow.
But after he heard the instructor's words, he had to quit in forcing his beliefs. He knew that there was no 100% absolute in a battle. So he could not disagree with the instructor's words.
And he was just only thinking about their safety so it's not good to disapprove of him.
But Kiko had continued arguing about fighting the monster with the instructors. After all, he had the Earth-Crushing Technique.
|Can't be helped, huh.| Yman shook his head and smirked at Kiko, then decided to leave. But when he turned around, he saw the girl Almina Amulet was facing him with a surprised face.
"....."
He was speechless for a second and his heart skips a beat. She was so pretty looking at her face to face.
Almina did not expect him to turn around suddenly, "ah..." she opened her mouth awkwardly.
Yman noticed her mouth agape. He was thinking if she was surprised or angry.
He remembered what he heard a while ago inside the carriage. The two girls beside Chloe were talking about Almina having a crush on Kiko.

Wait. Maybe he was covering her sight. He glanced at the back and saw Kiko and Instructor Goki were still arguing.
They were in line at him and Almina. Looks like he was in the middle between these two's eyesight.
|Maybe she wanted to say 'hey, don't block my sight. Get lost, you jerk!' (Insert an angry face of devil Almina with horns and burning eyes)|
Yman thought as he was feeling a little jealous of Kiko in having someone as beautiful as Almina Amulet to have a crush on him.
Yman sighed and bowed slightly to her direction, then he slowly sidestepped to unblock her line of sight. But for some reason, her eyes followed him.
"....."
Yman doesn't know anymore. But he started feeling embarrassed.
Almina felt shy and her face became rosy red, although Yman did not notice it.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
Maybe this is the reason that she was looking at him. He had a second thought though if he would thank her or not that she rescued him last time. What if she snubbed him?
In any case, his life was saved by her and that other girl. So, he needed to thank her no matter what.
Kiko furrowed when he noticed Yman was approaching Almina.
"Ah, Miss, uhm...t-thank you for the help las..."
"Ohohoho!" Yman was interrupted by a sudden laugh from someone.
|Tsk, who might it be who spoiled my courage to thank this girl?| With narrowed eyes, he glanced beyond Almina's back. To where the laughing sounds came from.
"Mr. Principal," Almina called out after she saw the figure behind her. She was about to say something else but she stopped when she noticed the other figures beside him.
Yman was thinking, |so it was the principal, huh. Good thing I didn't shout ahead of my thought.|
He also noticed the other figures besides the principal. It was the blonde goddess who saved him together with Almina.
In Yman's mind, |She really is a goddess. Such a beautiful face. Only Almina can contest with her.|
The two beautiful women were facing each other again!
The other trainees inside their carriages were whispering in bees like murmurs.
If looking at this sight from the other trainee's perspective, Yman looks like a grass background in a painting. Someone who's not worthy of a second look.
He doesn't really know what the other trainees were thinking about him.
Yman noticed Almina and the blonde girl were staring at each other for a second.

It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
