Exploring the Secret Passage
The rubble had been hiding the rest of the secret passage.
It didn’t look like it had been hidden on purpose.
“I think it was just hidden by accident.”
“Indeed.”
We moved the rubble away and proceeded.
“I wonder where this leads to?”
Luchila seemed quite excited. It was like we were on an expedition.
“Cluck-cluck.”
Gerberga clucked quietly in my arms. He hadn’t tried to move away ever since he had been scared.
Milka looked at him and said,
“I have been curious about it for a while, but what even is that Lord Gerberga chicken thing?”
“Yo-you…”
Luchila was about to explode with rage, but I stopped him.
And then I whispered so only he could hear.
“There are still people trying to target Lord Gerberga. It is better if people think he is a normal chicken. The secret is not likely to spread if fewer people know about it.”
“I see…in that case…”
Luchila was satisfied with this answer.
It was true that the secret should not be known by too many people.
I should know it, as someone who exposed his true identity a little too much.
“Are you fine with that, Lord Gerberga?”
“Cluck.”
It seemed that he agreed. Or so his eyes seemed to suggest.
And so I smiled at Milka and said,
“He is just a very adorable little chicken.”
“Oh? So he is not tomorrow’s breakfast?”
“Of course, not.”
“Lord Gerberga is part of my family! I would never think of turning him into a meal!”
Milka seemed a little disturbed by Luchila’s passion.
“I don’t understand rich people at all!”
She said.
After that, we walked down the secret passage for some time.

“It’s longer than I thought.”
“Yes.”
“…This may be an annoying request…”
“What?”
“Would you allow me to sleep in this passage?”
Milka’s request was most surprising.
“You want to sleep here?”
“You aren’t using it, are you? I can hide from the rain down here… And it doesn’t smell like the sewers as much. And no frightening adults are nearby.”
Milka was a girl, in spite of not talking like one and having a very rough attitude.
It must be tough to live out there.
“I won’t decide on anything until I find out where this leads.”
“I see. But please consider it!”
Milka said and started to walk faster.
“Hey, don’t walk on ahead.”
“Oh? But why?”
“There could be traps. You wouldn’t like that, would you?”
“Oh, oh.”
“I will walk in the lead, then Milka and Luchila.”
“Understood.”
“Cluck.”
As we advanced in this order, Milka began to mutter.
“If you had me walk in the front, it would be me who got stuck in the traps…”
“Obviously. And what of it?”
“I was thinking that you would run away while I was trapped…”
“Do I look like such a terrible person to you?”
“No-no…but aren’t rich people just like that?”
“Did you only know rich people who were cruel?”
Perhaps the only rich people Milka knew were the money lenders who had taken her house.
It couldn’t be helped that she didn’t have the best impression then.
“I do not care to sacrifice children.”
“I see. So you are a decent rich person.”
“Besides, I am also a Scout. I can find simple traps easily enough.”
“That’s amazing…”
We continued on smoothly after that, without encountering any traps.

And then we finally hit a dead end.
“This wall looks very hard.”
Luchila said as he inspected it.
“I don’t understand rich people. Who would make a path and nothing else?”
“Maybe they weren’t finished yet?”
“Oh, I see!”
As Luchila and Milka talked like this, I looked at the wall carefully.
“No, this passage continues further on.”
“But it just looks like a sturdy wall to me…”
“There are traces of it having been blocked. And with magic as well. They were very thorough.”
“Is that so?”
Luchila was a Sorcerer, and he looked surprised.
“See, look at this part. You can touch it.”
“Oh, you are right. I do feel a little magic.”
“I don’t know anything about magic, but if it is only a little, does that mean the magic cast on the wall is weak magic?”
“No, it is very strong magic.”
I continued to inspect the wall.
“Let me see, yes…I would put it in the same class as the treasure room in the king’s palace.”
“That much!”
Luchila said in shock. He looked a little disappointed.
“And yet I didn’t even notice it…that’s embarrassing.”
“There is no need to be embarrassed. The traces were covered very carefully. It would not be easy to see it.”
“That’s impressive. It really does look like an ordinary wall.”
Milka said as she ran her fingers over it.
A powerful magic had been cast on it, and then very advanced magic had been used to conceal it.
A novice, no, no ordinary Sorcerer could have done this.
Even a first-rate Sorcerer might have missed it without inspecting it carefully.
That’s the level that it was.
“If it is the same level as the king’s treasure room, does that mean there will be amazing treasure behind it?”
“There must be!”
“Cluck-cluck!”
Milka and Luchila were getting excited.
Even Gerberga was eager.
“I guess I should disarm it and see what’s on the other side.”
“Yes!”
“I can’t’ wait!”
“Cluck!”
I put a hand on the wall. I would be using a simple Unlock spell.
However, it was going against something very intricate.
While it was only unlocking it, it would not be easy to make it succeed.
And so I carefully read the flow of magic and deciphered it.
Then I activated the Unlock spell. At the same time, the wall of rock crumbled without a sound.

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw
