Quihano Gaiden – For young potentials (2)
Kyaang-! Wow-!
There was a sound echoing inside the dark windmill.
A sound that starts from the highest point of the windmill and spreads all the way down.
The sudden sound made even the fallen spirits raise their heads.
Pajik-!
It hits so hard that even sparks fly from the sword being swung.
However, since there was not even a scratch on Samonte’s glass tube, Quijano could not help but notice it at this point.
“…It’s magic.”
The glass tube that imprisoned the young spirits was transparent, but it was full of the mystery planted by Samonte.
Perhaps that mystery was deceiving the world and blurring the tip of Quijano’s sword.
“Andrew. “How could there be no way?”
“……Right now. “I don’t know if I give it time.”
“The thing I don’t have the most right now is time.”
Andrew was a noble wizard, but this is a story from a time when he was only human.
It seemed unreasonable to ask him for a solution right now.
“Damn it.”
Kihano swallowed his saliva as if his throat was burning from the urgency.
It felt like I was cornered at a dead end.
However, unlike his still hands, Quijano’s eyes were still moving nimbly.
“You sure they didn’t put mystery on all of them?”
Numerous mechanical devices were attached to the young snake, whose eyes were wide open as if surprised.
I don’t know what it was installed for, but it was clear that at least one device was used to tie down spirits.
“…I saw earlier that there was something like a blueprint floating around.”
Looking at the devices, Quihano remembered the blueprint he had seen earlier and slowly began licking his lips.
No matter how complex a device is, disassembly is the reverse of assembly.
No, even if you don’t necessarily know how to disassemble it, wouldn’t you be able to at least find the weak part?
Rumbling!
“Ugh!”
Quijano found a way to try again, but unfortunately, too much time had passed.
“what’s this!”
Quijano quickly began to fall to the floor due to the sudden shaking, as if an earthquake had occurred.
However, no matter how long he waited, the shaking that started from below never seemed to stop.
“Is it an earthquake?”
“no! “It’s not like an earthquake!”
Gagagagagak-!
As Kihano lowered his head to the sound rising from below, there was a sight he could see.
“…!”
The gears were moving from underneath the windmill.
There are dozens, if not hundreds, or thousands of cogwheels.
Quijano felt the hair on the back of his head stand on end as he saw the cogwheels interlocking and turning loudly, like waves spreading out.
-Ugh!
-Stop it now!
“…!”
At the same time, the screams of young spirits were heard from behind.
Inside the glass tube, which glowed brightly like a lit candle, young spirits were screaming in pain.
“This is not a windmill!”
Rumbling!
Samonte’s windmill stood up with a sound like thunder.
The windmill of Consuegra, desired by a perfect dragon and created by a fallen wizard.
“This is a golem!”
The golem that has finally revealed itself is said to be the essence of magic engineering.
A golem, perhaps the biggest in the world, was slowly rising, swallowing the screams of the young spirits.
Kaaaaaa-!
※※※※
Rumbling-
A loud sound was echoing over the quiet hills of Consuegra.
It was a sound that started from a windmill slowly rising.
The villagers let out loud screams as they watched the building, which had been a windmill until just a moment ago, slowly rise up.
– Oh my god, what is that!
-The windmill stands up!
It was such a terrifying sight that I almost forgot about the dragon right in front of me.
Samonte’s windmill, with a sharp head that seems as if it could pierce the sky, and a body covered in rust.
People couldn’t help but hold their breath as if they were at a loss for words as they saw this bizarre sight for the first time in their lives.
“How is it. Sarnus!”
However, while everyone remained silent, only the wizard Samonte was spreading his hands as if he could not contain his excitement.
Samonte, a wizard whose family I was in collapsed and who was even excommunicated from the faction he belonged to.
However, as of now, no one here dared to ignore him, so the roar of the golem from above was Samonte’s roar.

“Look! “Look at that majestic figure!”
Kuoooooo-!
Finally, the giant standing on two feet began to let out a huge roar as if he had come to this world.
The sight of Samonte laughing maniacally while roaring is truly a wizard tinged with madness.
However, the dragon’s blue eyes looking at them were filled with only a cool smile.
“excellent. Samonte.”
It has been disguised as a windmill, but in reality it is a giant golem created by the magician’s madness.
Even the cold-hearted Sarnus smiled darkly at the enormous ferocity that could be felt even from afar.
“……oh my god.”
It was so huge that it seemed like it could even collapse the hill it was currently standing on.
The villagers were dazed by the majestic sight, but they were coming back to reality one by one as the golem got closer and closer.
thud! thud!
“uh?”
thud! thud! thud!
“Huh?”
The Golem of Samonte is so large that it gets closer with each step.
However, as the golem approached one step closer, fear instead of respect for the unknown began to appear on the faces of the villagers.
“Where is that thing going now?”
“That direction is towards the village!”
Because the golem they see now is heading straight for their village.
Samonte’s windmill heads toward Consuegra with a huge body that seems like it cannot be easily stopped by any being.
However, the person who was most embarrassed here was not the villagers or Sarnus, but Samonte, the person who created the windmill golem.
“This!”
I tried to shake the handle I was holding, but the golem in front of me did not move.
They are just taking angry steps towards where humans are gathered.
Samonte’s complexion began to gradually turn pale due to the golem’s completely unexpected reaction.
“Sa Sarnus.”
“What.”
“That’s it.”
Kuoooooo-!
Samonte’s golem begins to gradually increase its speed, as if all it had been walking so far was practice.
Sarnus was finally beginning to realize the seriousness of the situation as he was moving around and exhaling steam as if he was very angry.
-I will kill them all!
There was a sound that came with the roar of a golem that made my eardrums explode.
It may have been a voice that no one here could hear, but it was the voice of young spirits that had been wandering on the hill.
-You guys have to feel sick too!
A young world that was hurt because no one stepped forward.
Now, those worlds were crying out at humans, pouring out their anger with nowhere to go.
※※※※
“Keuuuu!”
Kwasik-! Kwazizig!
Quijano was suffering from the constant heat radiating from his back.
The heat, so intense that I had to close my eyes, was coming from the place where the young spirits were just a moment ago.
However, what was actually tormenting Quijano right now was not the fierce anger of the spirits.
“This is too high!”
“Try to be quiet. a little!”
There was Quijano, hanging precariously on the tip of the wing of a windmill that was finally starting to turn.
Samonte’s windmill was the tallest windmill when it was a building, but now that it is moving, it reaches even higher into the sky.
Quijano barely escaped from the explosion of heat, but what was waiting for him was the large, rusty wings of a windmill that were starting to spin.
“Instead of being like a frog, I should have been like a sparrow!”
“It would have been cuter that way!”
Andrew was flapping his hind legs in fear, but just because he was Quijano didn’t mean he wasn’t afraid.
“…Don’t you feel like your head just touched the clouds?”
A giant golem high up a hill and himself hanging at the very end of its wings.
Quijano, who had never been as close to the sky as he was now, burst into laughter as if he had lost his mind due to the cool air above.
“Go down now!”
“Oooooh!”
But everything without wings is bound to fall someday.
As the wings, which had reached their highest point, began to fall toward the ground again, Quijano had no choice but to grit his teeth again.
“I don’t think it was like this even when I was born in my mother’s womb!”
The ridiculous feeling of floating made the area below my belly button tingle as if it was going to burst, but this was a moment where I couldn’t just close my eyes tightly like I did just now.
thud! thud! thud!
Because the sound of the golem’s footsteps below was getting closer.
That means it is that much closer to the ground.
Quijano, who had already failed to land three times and felt the dizzying glide, no longer wanted to taste the clouds with his tongue.
“Hold on tight!”
Quijano’s eyes, hanging from the tip of the wing, glowed.
Those sharp eyes can only be produced by a prosecutor who finds the right moment.
“…!”
The moment the spinning wings came closest to the golem’s knees, Quijano took advantage of that moment and started jumping like a flying squirrel.
There was a frog’s scream along with it, but Kihano’s new model was already flying toward the next landing point.
“Ugh! urg! Ugh!”
You won’t be able to jump off a moving golem unless you have the courage to do so.
The level of difficulty would be equivalent to stepping on the rubble of a collapsing building.
“yet! “Is the land there yet?”
“You won’t know it when you see it!”
“I closed my eyes right now!”
But now, Kihano was coming down to the ground without a single error, stepping on the spots he had seen.
The sight was so graceful that even Jan, who was following him on a donkey, left his mouth open in a daze.
“Now the last one!”
A fluid movement that can only be achieved by fully understanding how the golem operates.
Kijano, who had flown down following the movement, was now attempting the final leap toward the meadow.
“Ahh!”
“Quite a sum!”
Although it didn’t end well.
Kihano started rolling down the sloping hill behind the golem, which was leaving with a thump.
“Mr. Kihano! Are you okay!”
“…….”
Quijano’s complexion was so messed up that it was difficult to even ask what happened.
The brown hair that sticks up mercilessly due to the strong wind is a bonus.
However, after confirming that his feet had touched the ground, Kihano tried to straighten his shaking legs and motioned towards Jan.
“Take one potion out of your backpack. “There’s something that glows green.”
“This one?”
“okay. that.”
The glass bottle that Jan brought out had an ominous green light shaking.
However, when Kihano was handed the bottle, he just opened the cap without hesitation and poured it into his mouth.
“Ugh! “Cluck!”
The thick, concentrated taste of pine needles tormented Quijano’s tongue.
The scent emanating from his mouth was so strong that even Andrew, who had been lying face down as if he were dead, opened his eyes.
“…But where is he going now?”
What Quijano, who came to his senses thanks to the power of the drug, saw was a golem rushing toward Consuegra.
The cries of spirits could still be heard coming from the golem, which was rushing as if it were going to destroy the village.
“I guess the giant was angry about something. “For some reason, my eyes are red too.”
“It’s probably not the eyes, it’s the windows.”
Quijano, who understood the situation from the angry sounds of the spirits, quickly called Andrew.
“Young Master! “Come to your senses!”
“Ugh…. Where am I?”
“Quickly come to your senses and prepare like I said before!”
Quijano, who shook Andrew as if to get him to come to his senses, put his sword in its sheath and began to look down the hill.
The hills of Consuegra with large footprints engraved on them.
It might have been full of green grass just a moment ago, but the place where the golem passed was only filled with black dirt.
“……Kihano-sama? “You’re not going back to the golem, are you?”
Seeing Kihano gathering his equipment again, Jan widened his eyes in embarrassment, but Kihano’s eyes did not waver as if he had already made up his mind.
“But at least one person needs to step forward.”
“yes?”
Jan couldn’t hear, but even now, Quijano’s ears were filled with the cries of young spirits.
The young boy inside Quijano begins to wake up to the sound.
The world of spirits connected through wounds was already no different from my own world to Quijano.
“Someone needs to step up on their behalf.”
I hope that at least one person will swing the sword for the young potential in their place.
However, because he remembers the time when no one did that, Kihano decided to take action this time.
“I have this.”
“Ki Kihano? “Mr. Quihano!”
Quihano hands over a wad of white paper and runs towards the huge windmill.
There was Jan’s anxious voice behind him, but Quijano was already running towards the village.
“…What is this?”
Jan, who was left alone on the hill, looked at the stack of papers that Quijano had handed him.
It is a blueprint showing how Samonte’s windmill was built, with all kinds of pictures written on it.
Yan, who was looking down at the blueprint, was looking at a single bright red letter at the very bottom.
“Urgent… Emergency braking device?”
Samonte’s windmill blowing towards the village.
Quijano was running up the green hill to stop the windmill.
The sword I am holding is small and the enemy I have to deal with is huge, but what is now in my left eye in Quijano is my world, which I have clearly forgotten.
The boy who was crying inside Quihano slowly raised his head, following the starlight seeping in through the world we were in contact with.
Quijano Biography – Quijano of La Mancha
thud! thud! thud!
It felt like the earth was shaking every time I moved my feet.
The vibration under your feet that you can feel even though you are far away.
However, as the tremors got closer, white fear was etched on the faces of the villagers.
“That guy is going to town!”
“…There are children in the village!”
Consuegra, located in a remote corner of the Barony of Turlec, was a village that had never experienced a crisis like the current one, as it was quiet.
The people who had finally come to their senses ran towards the village, but their reactions were still slow compared to the golem that was approaching at a fast pace.
“Sarnus! help!”
“Please stop the golem! That giant is coming to town!”
Therefore, the only being you can rely on is a dragon born of perfection.
Without any hesitation, the people on their knees began to desperately cry out to Sarnus for help, but the dragon’s blue eyes were not looking at the people pleading.
“Is it impossible to control?”
“yes? No, not really…”
“to be honest.”
Samonte was trying to come up with an excuse, but for some reason he couldn’t open his mouth as easily in front of Sarnus.
The world of Sarnus becomes bigger the more you look up.
As he was the rightful ruler, his unobtrusive gaze was emitting an irresistible force.
“……sorry.”
Therefore, it was a failure that I let out helplessly.
Samonte, who had blown away his last chance, was sinking into miserable despair, but a faint smile was etched on Sarnus’s face when he heard the answer.
“That’s better.”
“yes?”
A huge golem seen beyond the people pleading with it.
It was taking angry steps toward Consuegra, but Sarnus’ experiment was not yet a failure.
“Isn’t this a golem created to deal with the southern beast people anyway? “It wouldn’t be a bad idea to try it out here.”
“…….”
The golem that rose up, swallowing up the screams of the young spirits, was born for destruction from the beginning.
Therefore, what Sarnus was focusing on was not perfect control over the golem, but just how many things it could trample on.
“That’s right! “I’m confident about that part!”
This world, ruled by a perfect dragon, is a world that must be completely spotless.
Those who reject it are nothing more than a stain that must be erased.
In the world of Sarnus, who was only looking at the goal ahead, neither the villagers’ cries nor the spirits’ cries of pain had reached them at all.
“hmm?”
But only one person. There was one man who reached the world of Sarnus.
-Hang in there!
A man with such brilliant potential that even dragons had to be wary of him.
The man was now running down the hill and charging towards the golem.
-It will stop right away!
“Kihano… Frausen.”
A man who wasn’t there when there was a dragon. Quijano Frausen.
But as he raced to be where he needed to be, he was shining like the boy he used to be.
※※※※
thud! thud! thud!
It felt like my insides were vibrating just from the vibrations transmitted through the air.
However, Quijano, who was sliding down the hill, had no time to hesitate at all.
‘If it continues like this, it’s a village!’
He could tell without having to listen to the spirits’ angry cries.
For now, Samonte’s windmill was moving straight toward the village.
Even now, it was not necessary to imagine what kind of situation would unfold if the golem, which was screaming in anger, reached the village.
“We can’t leave it like that!”
Quihano, sword drawn, quickly followed up to the golem’s feet.
It was a dangerous distance, as if he could be stepped on at any moment, but Quijano’s shining eyes just stared calmly at the golem’s feet as it came down.
thud!
“one!”
thud!
“two!”
There was a time when I was young and believed that I could achieve even impossible goals.
At that time, I was a person who never trembled in fear in front of any opponent.
thud!
“……three!”
However, now that I have put on reality and now know who I am, I am not the person I dreamed of as a child, but just a shabby Quijano.
To make me shine again, Quijano jumped onto the golem’s feet.
Kwaang-!
“Off!”
The piles of dirt that bounced into my face were harsh and the strong wind was sharp.
These are harsh conditions that would be difficult for an ordinary person to endure.
However, Kihano, who did not let go of his hand until the end, was gradually rising along with the rising golem’s feet.
The boy’s eyes, looking up from within the world, were getting closer and closer to the sky.
“Emergency brake!”
Samonte’s braking system to prepare for emergencies consisted of three parts.
The first one was on his left knee.
The second is in the center of the waist.
And finally, the third was on the axis of the wing, which was still spinning at a vicious pace.
“First, start with your knees!”
As the golem’s instep rose to its highest point, Quijano quickly began to climb upward.
That moment where he pauses for just a moment to take his first step once again.
However, only this brief moment was the moment when Quijano could move freely.
“Ugh!”
I reflect on my past self.
Even though I had enough time, I stopped.
However, the remaining time was giving Quijano a brief gap, so he couldn’t miss the last remaining moment.
“Aaaah!”
Quijano jumped up from his left foot, which was heading towards the ground with a frightening force.
It was literally a leap, risking everything without any space to step on.
It was a leap that seemed reckless, but as if the decision was not wrong, the golem’s knee came down in front of Quijano, who was stopped in the air.
Kwaang-!
“Tsk!”
Debris scattered from somewhere grazed Quijano’s cheek.
However, the reason Quijano was able to smile even though he was left with vivid streaks of blood was because he found what he had been hoping for.
“……found.”
A small mark that cannot be seen unless you look carefully.
A braking device marked with a red dot was visible in front of Quijano, who was barely hanging on his knees.
“Shall we stop for a moment and talk?”
Quihano’s sword, which he held backwards, was sparkling.
The light is enough to make Sarnus visible from afar.
“Hwaap!”
Kwasik-!
A small cogwheel hidden in the dark interior.
The gears that controlled the movement of his knees began to shatter from the tip of Quihano’s sword.
Wow!
※※※※
Rumbling!
A corner of the hill was collapsing due to the golem’s sudden hesitation.
The hills of Consuegra are showing pitch-black mounds of dirt as if they can’t handle the heavy movement.
The villagers who were watching the scene from the hill next door covered their mouths with astonished exclamations, but some of them were paying attention to the small sparkle visible from the golem.
“What is that?”
A strange light shining even in the hazy dust.
The light, which rose from the golem’s knees to its waist in a swift movement, was now shouting loudly.
-Now stop!
“…People are people.”
“How can there be people there?”
Ooooh!
The golem, whose left leg was not moving at all, was caught by the ankle and was crying loudly.
However, despite the magnificent sound, what caught people’s attention was the sight of Quihano, who was still constantly striking his sword.
“…Kihano! “Knight Kihano!”
“Frausen’s Quijano! Quihano at our inn!”
Although destruction continued to approach the village, the surrounding knights did not flinch, and Sarnus’ eyes were cold as he watched the scene.
People who are where they are supposed to be but don’t do what they are supposed to do.
But even at this moment when everyone was in despair, there was still a knight who did what he had to do for them.
“Knight Quijano is destroying the golem!”
“Oh oh. oh my god!”
An enemy too great for a mere human to deal with.
It would be a truly impossible dream to stop such a golem with one’s own strength, but now in front of the villagers was a man who could make that dream a reality.
“…This is the second one!”
Sweat was dripping down the tip of my chin toward the red dot in front of me.
He was so exhausted that even the tip of the sword he was holding was shaking, but there was no wavering in Quijano’s eyes toward his goal.
Kwasik!
Wow!
This is the second one.
The golem’s lower body, even the brakes on its waist were broken, began to stiffen as if it could no longer move.
-Knight Quijano is destroying the windmill!
-Qujano, Frausen’s son!
-The pride of the city of La Mancha is now before us!
“…….”
The cries of the enthusiastic people were echoing towards Quijano.
It was respect and cheers for the knight who protects my world, where I can do nothing.
But behind the cheers, even now, there was a dragon with its cool eyes raised.
“Now that’s enough! Sarnus!”
People who shout out their gratitude to the knight, not the dragon, here.
Sarnus’s heart was boiling as he looked at those people, but Sarmont, who knew nothing, just swept his heart and approached him.
“I don’t know what happened, but Quijano touched the brake system… I may not be able to use my lower body, but now I can at least use my upper body!”
“Can you move?”
The world of Quijano seen through Sarnus’ closed left eye is a wounded flower.
However, even a wounded and frustrated flower can one day reach the stars as long as it dreams.
“In that case, we should start operating right away.”
Sarnus, nodding his head as he looked at the flower, was smiling wildly.
At the same time, Sarnus’s fingers were tracing the nape of his neck.
“How is it? “If I can, I promise to provide full support in the future.”
“…….”
But the sky high above can only be reached by perfect dragons.
Sarnus was whispering quietly as he watched the trampled possibilities regain their color.
“Kill me.”
※※※※
“Huh! omg!”
Quijano was climbing the windmill, leading his already exhausted body.
Now the golem was just standing still and crying towards the village, but Quihano still had work to do.
-sick! so painful!
-Someone get us out of here!
“……Hang in there.”
Even now, there was a sound coming from the top of the windmill.
The cries of young spirits that the people cheering behind me cannot hear.
Towards the sound that only I could hear, Quijano was climbing towards his final brake.
-Kihano!
“…!”
At that moment, there was a sound that sounded like thunder in Quijano’s head.
It was a warning issued by a wizard connected through imagery.
-Look up!
Was it because I was so tired?
The sharp killer that he would have normally noticed was now fiercely baring his teeth on Quijano’s head.
“…What is that again!”
The golem’s right arm, which was as high as a mountain, was falling towards Quihano.
It looked like a meteorite falling from the sky.
However, Quijano realized too late that there was no longer any way to escape.
-Run!
At that moment, I had a strange sensation running up my leg.
It was the magician’s mystery passed down through the worlds we encountered.
-Go ahead and run like a frog!
“…!”
Through the surfaces where you and I touch, we can become broader.
Therefore, Quijano’s expanded world suddenly resembled Andrew’s legs.
Kwaaang-!
A terrifying blow that didn’t even care if my body was broken.
Samte, who was holding the controller as debris bounced everywhere, raised his hand, but there was a shadow rising higher than his hand.
“So, instead of being a frog, I’m telling you to be like a sparrow or something!”
Jump!
A frog’s jumping power can exceed 20 times its body weight.
Therefore, Kihano, who had now jumped up, was heading towards the sky with the intention of looking down at even the windmill that seemed so tall.
“…What should I do when I go down!”
Although it was only for a short time, Quihano climbed to the highest point in the world.
Looking at the sky I dreamed of all those years ago, the little boy inside Quijano began to smile brightly.
※※※※
“Good location!”
Andrew quickly began to recite a spell as he saw Quijano jumping up to the sky.
“What’s so great about a great location? If you do that, Kihano will die!”
Inside the heavily dented brass washbasin, Andrew quietly began to close his eyes.
Seeing him floating leisurely in a place filled with water, Jan urgently called out to him, but Andrew’s gesture towards Sinbi had already gone beyond the sky.
“……Clouds of Mambrino. “Now I am calling you.”
The clouds of Mambrino are more powerful than any mystery I can unleash.
It was a magic that could not be performed normally, but with the mysterious golden helmet, it would be possible to borrow its power for a very short period of time.
“Blue clouds are suitable for noble ideals.”
Rumbling!
Blue clouds began to gather in the sky where Quijano rose.
“What goes well with impossible dreams is pure white lightning.”
Quagga River-!
White lightning begins to form along with it.
A sudden thunderstorm has begun to turn the hills of Consuegra white.
“The colors I spray now will deceive the world!”
What you see now is a humble frog.
However, the name he was called when he was human was the Great Wizard of Mambrino. Andrew summons lightning.
“Aaaah!”
A heavy rain began to fall on the hill where the spirits were crying.
And a flash of white lightning.
Quijano, who brought stars from the sky, was coming down with rain that would wash away even all the tears.
“This is the last time!”
White lightning came down for the young spirits who called me.
The lightning that the boy was embracing to the fullest burned Quijano’s left eye and was striking Samonte’s windmill.
Quagga-ga-ga-gang-!
Flowers were blooming.
The flower of a boy who was able to reach the stars because he believed in me.
A splendor that even the dragon could not help but turn his eyes to was now turning the hills of Consuegra white and breaking the wings of the windmill.
※※※※
Dreaming the impossible dream.
Defeating an invincible opponent
endure unbearable pain
Dying for noble ideals.
I know how to correct my mistakes
To love with purity and good intentions.
Falling in love in an impossible dream
So have faith and reach for the stars.
That is the duty and duty of a true knight.
From the novel Don Quixote
