Chapter. 12. Lettuce to Windmage (3)
****
In the end, the party was able to take their steps only after the strange ritual-like magic ended. At first, I was overwhelmed by the sheer scale of the spectacle, but after getting used to it to some extent, Otman’s opinion was, ‘If a foreign object like us gets in the way and goes wrong while casting a spell on that scale, it could incur the wrath of the wizards.’ It was because.
As if all the wind around it had been sucked in along with the letter, Storm Hill suddenly calmed down.
“Finally… I get to visit the famous Felix Home.”
After a brief impression from Aldrich, who was from the Empire, the group began to approach the strange building.
****
Currently, the party’s affinity for the wind wizard was very high.
Even in Borca right now, ‘I really want to thank them too!’ They said the same thing, and the other party members also developed quite an affection for these strange wizards who were willing to carry out postal service in support of their ancestors. The beautiful magic feast I just saw also played a part.
“Leader. Is it really necessary to go into hiding like this? At least, unlike other magic tower wizards, seeing as they do ‘work’, they seem to be people with common sense.”
“Use! Shut up and follow me quietly. “Out of all the magicians I’ve met so far, Otman is the closest to the top. Don’t you feel alarmed just by seeing him hanging from the hem of his robe?”
“Umm. but. An aristocratic wizard like Otman is like that….”
“Why is that story coming up now!”
Otman made a fuss by hastily hiding the hem of his robe that had been opened from crawling, but it was difficult to fool the werewolf and mute human hearing.
Gulp, gulp!
That’s the sedative Aldrich made in the elf village last time. Amazingly, during Otman’s journey all the way from the exiled elven village, he drank a bottle of that every single day. To overcome the temptation of the water spirit that always hovers around Idrasil.
This means that even the gentlemanly, intelligent, and benevolent Otman had to rely on the warlock’s strong medicine to overcome his ‘wizardness’.
“hmm. I was careless. “Even if you’re a good wizard, there’s no guarantee that you haven’t gone crazy.”
“Inoom! Professor! “How can you create such foolish misunderstandings about wizards!”
“We call it wisdom, not misunderstanding, not to touch the heated iron because it is thought to be hot. As the leader of the group, shouldn’t you teach them what’s dangerous?”
“Hmm!”
Seeing the wariness of the wizard growing in the eyes of the group through Otman’s uncomfortable coughing, the professor quickly advanced and threw himself behind the next rock.
Squeak-sudden!
“2 liters… no, about 1.5 liters.”
It was not easy to collect water because it was at the end of a high hill in a dry rocky area. The professor sculpted the lump of water in his hand and used it like a mirror, and crawled forward under his breath, hoping that the sleeping wizard floating near the cliff would not wake up.
‘The strategy book said not to go through the entrance, but to wake up those wizards and ask for guidance, but if you can avoid getting entangled, it would be safer to avoid getting entangled as much as possible. Especially if you’re an old wizard.’
At least, this is because ‘his’ travelogue, full of experience, felt much more sincere than a concise official strategy.
Yes, I saw it.
In the end, even though it was an act of publicizing watching pornographic stories live in the whole neighborhood, I opened the copy of [Slutty Demon’s Pungryu Travels – Empire Edition (censored version)], which was full of red labels.
Well, tomorrow morning, there will be another message saying [Wow – Professor Park enjoys reading adult literature in front of everyone!], [Amazing! Well, don’t show me that! You pervert!] There will be a lot of messages like this. I’ve been through too much in the past to overlook information just because I feel embarrassed.
When he opened the ‘Red Book’ with such a heartbreaking feeling, the professor couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
‘Honestly… it exceeded my expectations.’
After removing many expressions and a considerable amount of description, his travelogue, which managed to reach a level suitable for a 17-year-old reader, was surprisingly full of extremely useful and rare information, and even provided some enjoyment to read.
Not ‘that’ kind of pleasure, but real literary pleasure.
=========
They are free and pure.
========
Contrary to the expectation that it would be full of vulgar language, his travelogue, which started in a calm tone, was a good piece written in soft and archaic language. At least, that was the case in the beginning.
=========
In general, freedom is often perceived as a positive thing among people. However, society is formed by the laws and constraints of mutual promises, and a completely free person is the same as an unworldly being who escapes even the category of trust.
In that sense, Windgye wizards can be said to be truly free people. They were peripheral people who cherished the coming impulse, passionate people who could give their all to living in the moment.
Therefore, it was easy to mix with them, but it was very difficult to win their hearts. Their hearts were also pale and wide like the sky, so it may be easy to be held in their arms, but holding them in your arms is truly, truly, truly. It was a deplorably difficult task.
But as always, isn’t a glass of water at the end of a penance like nectar, and aren’t the flowers on a cliff the most beautiful?
I realized that in order to truly embrace them, I had to enter their sanctuary called Magul, Felix Home, and share in the hardships and sorrows of them. Below is a strategy for the numerous wizards I met there.
.
.
.
.
=========
If you look at it up to this point, it was no different from the strategy created by a gamer with considerable skill. The problem is that from now on, all kinds of strategy books that children cannot listen to will be released.
To summarize, excluding his brilliant career, it was as follows.
———
1. All Punggye wizards suffer from severe bipolar disorder. Felix Home is close to a facility where people stay in a ‘manic’ state, so surprisingly, if you don’t make a big fuss inside, you won’t incur their resentment. Contrary to rumors, the magic ‘Felix Home’ is safer than you think.
Of course, deep relationships were my goal, so I had to bury five of my characters in that beautiful building. Always pay attention to their facial expressions. They do not hide their emotions, so they tend to show it all in their facial expressions.
2. If you are aiming for a high-ranking wizard, start with the disciple. All Wind World wizards regard Archmage Felix Drixiel as their idol, and try to have a squire like him. Of course, it is not common to give a knighthood to a wizard or something like that, so an apprentice takes that role. The younger and more expressionless the better.
The younger the child, the less wind enters the brain, and the poor expression means that the teacher has a lot of accidents and the student has a lot of work to do. Since solving an accident naturally involves establishing social relationships, there is a high probability that it will be close to normal.
Of course, it could just be because you’re upset, and in that case, you’ll die for touching the angry wind wizard.
3. Musical knowledge. Although many people do not know this, all wind wizards are masters of tubular instruments such as woodwinds and brass instruments. If you are good at singing or have an instrument you are good at, you could receive a pretty great gift.
However, outside, a bard who can’t sing gets hit with a tomato, while a guest who can’t sing here gets a wind cutter.
4. ★The most important thing. The only rule they follow in common in the world is the rule of ‘Felix Home’. Take good care of this place. Perform postal and assigned duties faithfully. and,
‘Consider Felix Home your home.’
The Grand Wizard left the interpretation of the house to each individual’s imagination, but for wind wizards who spend most of their lives wandering, the existence of the house is a bit more exaggerated than common knowledge.
For example-
* To make the house clean and beautiful, create a small garden inside, clean it diligently, and cut down all the nearby rocks to increase the view. (Producted over 3 years by 14 people, including 5th-ranked Andarel Khamis)
* The residents of Wind Hole were relocated, saying that if you have a house, you have to have neighbors. (This was done by force because they didn’t have to be friendly neighbors. The village chief succeeded in persuading people who risked their lives to build houses and live alone by example, and the villagers moved out after 3 months. was released.)
* When guests come to the house, he says he must treat them as they should, and whenever there are visitors, he attacks the nearby lord’s castle and robs them of the highest quality tea and snacks. (6th rank Sorirae Wizard Nesh)

Etc., the result of the combination of the laws of the concept of home and their free-spirited imagination will far exceed your imagination, so you have to adapt it somehow to improvise.

‘Umm. It’s terrible to see it again. The scale of eccentricity is different. This can almost be seen as a travelogue, not a travelogue, but a strange behavior.’
Rather than his travelogue, these words are closer to the dying messages of the five characters that hit Felix’s home.
This is also a summary by removing all the parts that need to be omitted. If the author gathered all the eccentricities he experienced while dealing with all kinds of wizards, it would be a cosmic horror story.
After reading something like that, how could I not be tempted to persuade those wizards and send them to Roderick’s battlefield? I was planning on just going in there as inconspicuously as possible, finding one of those postal wizards who was in charge of the hot air balloon delivery service used for dealing with the elves, asking for a ride, and leaving right away.
‘It won’t be difficult. In fact, there are no people in the wasteland who do not have at least one mental illness, so they are all just crazy people, right? I am a person who lives with people like that every day. Gum, gum, is all you need to convince one person! It burrows in like a rat, cooks and boils, and splatters!’
Although he was not as good as Vex, he was a platoon leader in the 14th Special Operations Forces, a legendary special forces unit, and as a person, he was confident in his ability to hide and stealth, so it was an operation he carried out.
Shrrrrrrrrrr!
“Nuch?”
“Aaaah!”
Next to the professor, who had a thin layer of water covering his entire body, completely blocking even his presence, there was an old man with white hair and beard who had been there for some time.
A fluffy green conical hat and green robes so woven that they could be considered the necromancy of the clothing world. In addition, he holds a wooden cane with big and small holes in it.
‘Oh, caught!’
With the plan shattered from the beginning, the professor quickly composed himself and opened his mouth.
“Ah, hello…are you there?”
“Nuch?”
“Well, I am a warrior from the Church of Gwangmyeong. “It may be presumptuous, but there is something I would like to ask of those who possess the mana of the wind…”
“Who are you?”
Ji profit.
The wizard’s eyes narrowed slightly as he didn’t even pretend to hear my answer. It felt like my liver was falling even further.
‘That’s wrong. Isn’t this the answer you were hoping for? Or are you arguing? Toll fee? bribe? Pass? ‘What on earth are you dissatisfied with?…’
Thing!
At that moment, the professor noticed that the old man sitting in front of the arched door in the distance was empty. It means that it flew silently from there to here in that short period of time.
“Ahh….. those shameless guys came to my house…. and started stomping on other people’s private property….”
Ji profit-
The old man’s wrinkles became deeper. This means that if you take more time or do not give the desired answer, you are out. Of course, I had grown to the point where I couldn’t be beaten by a single wizard, but I didn’t know what kind of impact it would have on that mental ward if a wizard who got upset started going on a rampage.
That sense of crisis made the professor’s frozen head spin wildly.
‘A wind wizard, a being who has grown so old that he has forgotten the common sense of the world. The only rule that can be commonly understood between this person and me is the rule left by Felix Drixiel.’
The only thing on this old man’s mind would be his love for the wind, a sudden impulse, and the rules of Felix Drixiel.
‘ah.’
nyuch. I asked who it was. It’s not trivial questions like where are you from, what are you here for, or why are you here? Just who are you?
“Kyo, professor.”
“….huh? Kyoohsuu?”
When the professor unconsciously said his name, the old man’s face turned red and looked like he was about to burst out in a fierce wind, but his face instantly relaxed.
‘That’s the correct answer!’
It was a simple problem. The people here don’t care about titles, fame, or anything like that, and they only treat people purely as people.
‘Nuch?’
I was just asking who you really were. Who are you to hang around in front of my house? Still, the suspicious guy is from an unknown sect, so it’s bound to be annoying for an older man to hear him ramble about his mission.
Once I got the hang of it, I got a sense of how I should act here.
“Ma, I came here because I have someone to meet! “I heard you were at home.”
“Uh… who?”
The professor quickly opened [Saekcheonma’s Pungryu Travels] on the system. The part where the most embarrassing and diverse names of people are recorded.
“Celia Mist!”
“Eh… I went out on a westerly wind 4 months and 13 days ago…”
“Vanessa Gish!”
“doesn’t exist. “Who is that?”
“Well then, Antania Cilia!”
“I went out to make wine 1 year, 7 months, and 23 days ago.”
“Profit, then…!”

It was expected. The wizards written in this travelogue are people that the man of five different characters visited and met at different times.
Fortunately, his list was full of more than a few pages, and the old gatekeeper was busy doing his job, checking the endless list of people one by one.
“Go, Gauman Delhurst!”
31st. Before we knew it, the list of names had run out, and cold sweat was forming on the professor’s forehead.
His wrinkled fingers, searching through the paper he had taken out of his pocket, pointed at one part.
“Ahhhh. You were a guest visiting Gauman? Uhmmm. You are a guest. I’m a guest. It’s been a while, sir. customer….”
The old man, who was shaking his head and muttering to himself, suddenly raised his cane and tapped the professor’s feet three times each.
Huoong-
“good. You can go now. “The way would have been opened.”
“The road…?”
“My house is so drafty. When entering the house, most guests cannot stand and stumble so we have to do this. “The floor is weak, so heavy people like you don’t damage the house.”
When I looked at it, it looked like it was some sort of passage mark.
“Uhm…. That’s enough for you. “There, those crouching guys!”
Cheer up!
The old man approached, glaring straight at the haze where the group was hiding…
“Welcome. Non-Burmi friends.”
“….uh?”
“that. It’s water magic, right? “The water was dizzy and turbulent.”
“If you’re talking about a curtain of spray… that’s right. But why is that suddenly…”
In response to Otman’s answer, he hugged Otman and his group with a bright smile, wondering where the impression of asking the professor had gone.
“I like wind and rain. I have many friends waiting for Biburmi at home. It’s too late, buddy. “Who are you?”
“Uh, uhh… thank you. “Otman, Ottman Baudelaire….”
Ottoman walks next to the old man with his arms crossed, still with a dazed look on his face.
customer. friend.
The professor suddenly lost his temper at the obvious temperature difference between the two words.
‘Was it okay to just show that you’re a water wizard?’
“Hey… Gatekeeper?”
“Why, guest professor?”
“I… I know how to do this too.”
Pong!
As the professor floated a water droplet on his hand, the gatekeeper, who was watching it closely, frowned and frowned repeatedly before turning his head.
“I don’t know because it’s my first time seeing it. ”
“Eh?”
“Anyway, I don’t like it. Clean it up and follow me. “I will guide you.”
“No, something like this….”
The professor seemed to know how this neighborhood worked.
Customers if allowed within the rules.
If you like it, friend.
Friends can come to your house at any time, so friends have higher authority than guests.
In the end, you either become a guest according to the image of the ‘house’ that is tight and is different for each wizard.
If that’s difficult, you can just like the other person and become friends.
Felix Home was a place where you had to walk on a tightrope, like walking on thin ice, to keep up with the dizzy mental world of those wind wizards.
A community surrounded by very large and loose boundaries.
The professor felt his head throbbing from the moment he entered.
‘The gatekeeper said it was unusual… so I can only hope that the people inside are different.’
In any case, taking comfort in the fact that he had passed and that he had found a course of action, the professor walked along behind the friendly group of Ottomans and the gatekeeper.
