After completing my magic casting training, I was meditating for a while to build up my magical power.
“huh?”
Suddenly, Reppenhardt raised one eye. I could feel something moving quickly across the forest. The distance is about 100 meters? As a wizard, you can understand your opponent through your senses. Although something felt sad, he continued to concentrate.
‘This energy is not human… … .’
However, it is not a mountain animal either. It was clearly the sign of someone running through the forest on two feet. Reppenhardt looked in the direction where he felt the presence with curious eyes. Since his reincarnation, he was the first person he met other than Gerard. I couldn’t help but be curious.
After a while, something came out of the forest.
A face about 1.6 meters tall, with a flat nose, beaky eyes, and buck teeth came into view. A human would say it was scary, but it was a very familiar face to him.
“Okro.”
A small orc with green skin and wild gray hair came running out of the forest and was glaring at him. When the orc looked at Reppenhardt, he raised the rusty sword in his hand in confusion.
“Krkaka Lokata Kara!”
The orc’s expression was full of hostility. Repenhardt inadvertently clicked his tongue at that small and thin figure.
‘I think he’s still a boy… … .’
Orcs usually have almost the same height as humans. At that size, he’s probably about three or four years old. Orcs, a race of warriors, reach adulthood five years after birth, and their youth is long, so their age would be roughly the same.
Repenhardt looked at the orc boy silently with interest.
In fact, compared to Reppenhardt himself, this Orc boy’s body was small and thin, and his body was also not normal. His entire body was well-trained and covered in scars, the body of a warrior who had been through quite a bit of battle. Among Orcs who boasted innate bravery, someone of that age and stature could be said to have the qualities of a quite outstanding warrior. Once again, relative evaluation is a very scary thing.
‘Did you run away from an arena or something?’
The entertainment of raising orcs to become gladiators, having them kill each other, and betting money to watch was spread across the continent. Perhaps this orc boy is in the same situation.
“Krrr… … .”
Seeing Reppenhardt just staring at him without any reaction, the Orc boy’s attitude softened a little. He lowered the tip of his sword slightly. However, vigilance is still prevalent. The orc boy spoke to Reppenhardt in a cold voice.
“human! You and I pretend not to see. Then I won’t kill you!”
Memories of his past life came to mind, and Reppenhardt became cheerful. If he were human, he would have cut himself without even seeing anything, right? Ah, a proud race that does not want unnecessary killing even in this situation.
I glanced across the forest. Although I couldn’t see it, my senses clearly caught the sight of a group of sword-wielding people rushing towards me.
‘They must be the ones trying to catch this boy, right?’
Leffenhardt cleared his throat for a moment. And then he let out a growling scream.
“Krar Ok, Karal Talchata?”
It was Orcish. The structure of orcs’ vocal cords is different from that of humans, so when humans hear them, most of them sound like growling. But the interpretation is a bit different.
“Young Orc, are you being chased?”
A bright light appeared in the Orc boy’s eyes. The boy asked in Orcish.
“How can humans speak the language of grace?”
Leffenhardt answered briefly.
“There was a connection.”
He reigned as a demon king in his past life and could speak all the languages of orcs, elves, trolls, dwarves, as well as ogres, goblins, and gnolls. I was able to pronounce the native Occitan language.
The orc boy seemed a bit surprised by Repenhardt’s clear orcish language. He muttered in a decidedly subdued tone.
“It’s a blessed relationship. It is as you said. “I am being chased now.”
“I want to help you.”
The orc boy’s eyes widened and he shook his head to express his refusal. Leffenhardt asked, puzzled.
“Can’t you trust me? Or does this mean that you will not accept any help from humans?”
“No way. You who know the language of grace are like my brothers. I can also feel in my soul that the favor is sincere. “How could I put such a brother in danger in my situation?”
Repenhardt liked this orc boy more and more.
Humans may look at orcs who just growl and denigrate them as being very barbaric and beast-like, but in fact, their vocabulary is not much different from that of humans. It just feels like a simple pronunciation to humans because there are many tones and the meaning is divided into long and short sounds. In fact, the Orcs who provided equal educational opportunities to all tribesmen had a richer vocabulary than the uneducated humans.
And this boy, even among those Orcs, had a very intelligent way of speaking. Was he born with good blood?
“I have the ability to help you. And I don’t get harmed. “Trust me.”
The orc boy’s expression was shaken by Repenhardt’s confident attitude. Finally he nodded. The boy immediately changed his tone.
“I will receive favor, my benefactor.”
Reppenhardt immediately cast Shadow Veil. It is a simple 1-circle spell that summons darkness and obscures vision, but if cast in a vaguely shadowy place, it was easy to hide at least one orc boy.
After spreading a curtain of darkness over the cave he had created a little while ago at the bottom of the cliff, Reppenhardt beckoned to the boy.
“Hide here. “My magic will hide your tracks.”
The orc boy asked without hiding his surprise. The boy was even more surprised now than when Reppenhardt spoke Orcish.
“Were you a wizard, benefactor?”
“Is it so strange that I’m a wizard?”
“With that body?”
“… … .”
Well, no one would look at the current Leppenhardt, who is 185 centimeters tall and has plenty of muscle throughout his body, and think he is a wizard. Sighing, Reppenhardt continued gesturing toward the veil of darkness. The orc boy, who was momentarily embarrassed, soon relaxed his expression and walked toward the tent.
“Then I will gratefully accept your favor.”
As he immersed himself in the darkness of the tent, the orc boy suddenly chuckled. He spoke sarcastically to Reppenhardt.
“Now that I think about it, it seems like there was similar content in human fairy tales. “I’m sorry, but I don’t know where the elves bathe.”
Leffenhardt smiled and waved his hand.
“There’s no need for that. “Hurry up and hide it.”
Really, his intellectual level is quite high. He shows pride even in times of crisis, and even cracks jokes after accepting favors from others.
Reppenhardt smiled in satisfaction as he watched the Orc boy disappear into the darkness. Then he climbed back onto the rock and fell into his meditation as if nothing had happened.
A moment later, a group of men emerged from the bushes, accompanied by the sound of loud footsteps. They were mercenaries from the arena in Chrome City, located near the Rachid Mountains. Their job is to manage the arena and occasionally catch runaway slaves. And now they were all on edge.
At first, I thought it was an insignificant mission because at most one baby orc ran away. However, this imbecilic orc was strangely clever and eluded their pursuit. In the end, I couldn’t help but grind my teeth as they chased me all the way deep into the mountains.
“That’s annoying. “Do I have to go through all this trouble just to earn a few silver coins?”
Bright, the leader of this group, continued to grumble as he roughly cut down the bushes with his scimitar like a crescent moon.
As I left the bushes and came out into the clearing, I saw a young man sitting on a rock with his eyes closed. Bright asked in a rough voice.
“hey! hey! “Didn’t you see an orc kid passing by here?”
One of the subordinates following behind him grinned and continued speaking.
“Tell me and I’ll give you a gold coin!”

Bright, startled, turned to his subordinate and stopped him.
“Hey, what are you talking about?”
The price of one baby orc is less than five gold coins, and the compensation they receive must be calculated in silver coins, so if you give one gold coin, it is a business that loses money. However, the subordinate’s attitude was that he did not care.
“Who really gave it to me? “It’s okay to just listen to the information and then criticize it.”
“Ah, of course. “Tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
Leffenhardt was slightly impressed by their conversation. Bright and the others were muttering in relief as they had never thought they could hear such a small voice from this distance, but now that his hearing had developed to that of an elf, he could hear it clearly without a single mistake.
A scathing retort naturally flowed out.
“I don’t know?”
“Are you sure you don’t know?”
Bright glared at Reppenhardt with suspicious eyes. Looking at the traces, it was clear that the baby orc escaped this way. The footprints are very clear.
‘But you don’t know?’
Bright looked at the footprints again. It looked like the footprints had reached the stream below the waterfall. And beyond that, there is a cave that looks perfect for hiding.
Bright laughed.
“There you go. “Guys, let’s go.”
Reppenhardt clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘Now that I think about it, I didn’t think of footprints.’
In the past, when he used magic, he only used high-level magic that erased traces and such, so he made a mistake. Reppenhardt flew out and blocked their path.
“This is my residence. “You can’t let people in without permission.”
“huh?”
How dare you stand in your way when it comes to the topic of ‘countryside brats’? Bright’s twin wicks rose left and right.
“No, is this guy crazy…?” … .”
Only then did Bright take a closer look at Reppenhardt. I didn’t realize it, but when I looked closely, I was in pretty good shape. In fact, it wasn’t just good, it was extremely good, but unfortunately Bright didn’t have the insight to look into it.
Anyway, if you look at it, it looks like the muscles are well-defined. Still, there is only one person over there and there are more than ten people here, so there is absolutely no reason to be afraid. Moreover, Leppenhardt’s current height is 185 centimeters, which is tall, but not to the point of being inhumane. If it had been as big as 2.3 meters tall like the old Tesron, it would have run away without even looking back, but as of now, it is not that intimidating.
“Hey, this guy is suspicious of something. Subdue it. “If you beat it, something will come out.”
Or not. There’s no one around you who can say anything if you beat up a mountain boy like this, right?
Bright chuckled. Although he always bullied the weak, he had no awareness of unjustly harming unrelated people.
‘Well, these are guys with no room for sympathy.’
The subordinates approach Reppenhardt, who is frowning, holding swords in their sheaths. They continued talking while laughing.
“Hey, kid. “Stop fooling around and get out of the way, okay?”
“Baby, you have a nice body, don’t you think?”
“Well, no matter what, if you get hit with a knife, it’s over.”
Reppenhardt, who was looking at the approaching mercenaries, clenched his fists for a moment. And he released it again. He thought about giving him a light blow, but suddenly Gerard’s words came to mind.
-Your fist is now a weapon. If you swing it, it can be assumed that most people will die.
Certainly, he has not yet reached the stage where he can freely operate Aurors like Gerard. And even without the Auror, his fist is closer to a sledgehammer now.
-Then what should I do, Master?
-You should show some mercy to the weak.
So Leffenhardt decided to show mercy. Then he picked up a tree branch that was lying nearby. It was a branch that had broken off in the aftermath of the training a little while ago.
In Unbreakable, where bare fists are stronger than weapons, taking up a weapon is mercy.
Of course, the mercenaries did not take it that way.
“This bastard is holding a club?”
“Let’s have a fight?”
“I learned something, right?”
Leffenhardt grinned. In an instant, his tone changed.
“Rest assured. “If you get hit with this, you won’t die.”
And then a splendid battalion technique unfolded. In an instant, countless clubs rained down on the mercenaries’ heads, leaving afterimages. The smug expression disappeared and fear took its place.
“Huh, huh!”
What followed was the sound of beatings and screams echoing high into the sky.
“Ugh!”
Puff puff puff!
Jim Unbreakable is a martial arts fighter who trains his bare-handed martial arts skills to the extreme. However, this does not mean that there is no weapon technology. That is what Bongsul is, but in fact, this Bongsul was not intended for fighting an opponent. It is, after all, a technique created to train students well. As a result, he had no defensive skills and specialized only in attacks, and that was in attacking the opponent’s entire body, without missing a single inch.
“Oh my! “Let’s all play together!”
As my colleagues were instantly defeated, others were surprised and rushed towards me. He pulls the knife out of its scabbard and stabs his opponent in earnest to kill him.
