“I…I know!”

With Alice's speed of turning around, Rudy didn't notice that his good student had completely blushed. He was just a little confused for a moment, until the smiling Ruijerude pushed his back, and he followed.

Ruijerude walked up to Rudy, tilted his head and asked:

"Do you need me to help her scout the enemy?"

Rudy, seemingly having come to his senses, smiled smugly. He crossed his arms, clasped in black armor, and raised his head slightly, as if showing off a treasure.

"Please take a good look at her battle! Mr. Rijerude, I think you'll be surprised by Alice's performance."

Although I always thought it was okay for Alice not to fight.

But Rudy would not deny the results of Alice's hard work over the years.

Especially the results, they are so brilliant and beautiful.

"coming."

Ruijerud turned the trident in his hand and whispered a reminder, saying that it was probably because Rudy had killed too many monsters indiscriminately, so that the smell of blood in this area became too strong, attracting groups of predators.

First up was a pack of seven Acid Wolves, one of the most common and lowest-level monsters on the Demon Continent. Each individual was a D-rank monster, essentially the same level as a Boar of the End. Even a small group like this could be C-rank powerful. Wouldn't it be surprising if they could destroy a village on the Central Continent?

But this is just like an ant passing through the Demonic Continent.

Facing the battle, Alice's attitude suddenly became calm, and her already cold eyebrows were filled with a dangerous aura. She held the sword in one hand, and the half-magic device and half-magic attachments wrapped around her feet were instantly activated, allowing Alice to run on the sand as if she were on a stone brick floor. Without raising a grain of sand, she came to the side of the first wolf, casually swung the blade from bottom to top, and the patterns on the sword flashed with a faint light. The sword's speed instantly increased several times, and she chopped off the poisonous acid wolf's head like a hot knife through butter.

"Alice's boots are magical additions. Their original function is simple: the ground where the soles of the shoes step on always feels like solid, rough ground."

As soon as she finished speaking, Alice killed all seven poisonous acid wolves. Her movements were smooth and flowing, like dancing. Not to mention being injured, there was not even a trace of blood on their bodies.

Then, another group of nineteen Parks coyotes rushed over from the other side. Alice made a sword flower behind her back and immediately rushed forward to meet them.

"However, I modified it a bit and increased the effect of the boots slightly: they only work when actively triggered, and can produce a grip effect of corresponding strength by infusing different amounts of magic power. The user can even stand on the ceiling."

It only takes one sentence.

Half of the coyotes had been killed, but Alice, who had rarely killed, didn't seem nervous. She even used the move of stepping on the blood splattered in the air to gain momentum. It was an advanced skill that took several months of practice to master.

"That sword is a solid demonic sword engraved with a magic circle that increases slashing speed. The increased speed also depends on the magic power injected into it. With skill, it can even be slowed down or moved backwards."

The enemy has been completely destroyed.

Alice happily carried the knife and made a "yeah" gesture to Rudy.

Rudy also responded with a praiseful smile.

"But, Rudeus, isn't it bad to rely too much on props?"

"Mr. Ridgelude, do you know about baby walkers? They're used to help babies stand up, helping them learn to walk quickly. The same thing is true for Alice."

Rudy raised his head with a proud expression:

"What just happened, Alice can also do it with magic herself, right?"

Note 1: The reason why Ruijierud is not as all-inclusive as he was at the beginning of the original novel is that Rudy has already proven his strength, so he is only intended to be a collaborator.

It's not just to help children, but also to help friends' students.

Note 2: The last sentence can really be done. In theory, you can use momentum magic to maneuver. It just depends on whether your body can withstand it.

Chapter 14 Adventure Story (4)

It took about two hours.

Finally, an oasis-like area appeared before the three people's eyes, and a circular rock wall stood outside the oasis.

Ruijie Lude said:

"That's the village of Migrud."

Alice, whose face was covered in blood after trying to fight the enemy with her fists, cheered:

"How beautiful! It's Master's hometown!"

Rudy had a dull look on his face:

"No, don't call Teacher Luo Qixi "Grandmaster." She'll kill you if she hears. And this place doesn't even resemble what Teacher described. Is she coming back to help rebuild her hometown?"

It’s hard not to be reminded of what a certain blue-haired guy once said: I just go back to take a look, I’m not needed there.

If there is no demand, then create demand, right?

Rudy's soul of complaining is about to burn.

During the casual conversation along the way, Ruijierud also learned a lot of information. He continued to lead the way and helped explain:

"The initial changes to the village were brought about by Gawain and Sylphy. That's what Roxy told me. However, it's almost entirely Roxy's credit that the village has become what it is today."

Ruijerud seemed to like the topic of Migrud Village very much, or to be more precise, the changes in Migrud Village. Every time related matters were mentioned, he would talk several times more.

This made Rudy feel a little bit like Gawain.

He pinched his chin and looked at Ruijielud beside him. Indeed, it was hard not to feel that they were very similar, but it was only like the Gawain in the past. The current Gawain was very human.

but...

What? This story about four masters and apprentices feels like I don't have a role. Am I the monk Sha? How many things have you been hiding from me? Why don't you three just get married? Don't invite me to the wedding!

Rudy vented the pain of being isolated with grievance. Of course, if Teacher Roxy really wanted to possess Brother Gawain, and really had such an evil idea, Rudy felt that he would definitely be the first to stand up and help Sylphy to destroy the body.

Gosh, teacher, I support Sylphy more.

It’s definitely not because I can’t accept the fact that the vicious class teacher became the eldest sister-in-law.

The three of them quickly approached the village.

To be precise, it is the outer wall of the village.

The blue-haired boy on the watchtower shouted a warning:

"Stop! Ruijerude, who are those two dangerous guys next to you?"

Indeed, regardless of Rudy, it was hard not to arouse vigilance for Alice, who was covered in blood and had a cruel smile on her face.

Just as Rudy was about to introduce himself, he saw a little blue creature poking its head out from the wall of the watchtower and raising its cute little hands high, which made him smile softly.

Then, a huge ice cone condensed next to the watchtower.

Rudy immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Alice turned around and saw Rudy doing this, and she also raised her hands in surrender with a smile.

Seeing this, Ruijerud, who was still organizing his words, was speechless. He had no idea what to say and simply raised his hands in surrender.

Thus, the [DEAD END] team, which would later become famous throughout the Demon Continent, was captured by a single six-year-old child from the village of Migrud.

ten minutes later.

In the village chief's house.

"...Anyway, that's what happened."

The blue-haired middle-aged man smoking a pipe glanced helplessly at the blue-haired boy beside him, then looked at the brown-haired boy among the three opposite him and smiled kindly:

"Actually, there's no need to explain so much. From your equipment and that lady's equipment, as well as your appearance, we can already tell your true identity."

"I'm really sorry for the initial tit-for-tat."

Seeing the atmosphere improve, Rudy breathed a sigh of relief. He gave Alice, who couldn't understand the demon language, a reassuring look, then bowed slightly.

"It doesn't matter. It's because we didn't notify you in advance."

The blue-haired middle-aged man smiled and continued:

"Then let me introduce myself first. I am the village chief of this village, Rocks Migrudia, and next to me is Lokisi's father, Loin Migrudia."

Rudy bowed his head in surprise at the two of them and introduced himself:

"Although Teacher Luo Qixi mentioned me, let me formally introduce myself. I am Rudius Greyrat from the Fitoya Territory of the Asura Kingdom. The person next to me is my student, Alice Boreas Greyrat, the granddaughter of the Lord of Fitoya Territory."

Rudy finished speaking and patted Alice on the shoulder. Alice, understanding the situation, greeted him with ladylike courtesy and introduced herself loudly in Human language:

"Nice to meet you! I'm Alice Boreas Greyrat!"

Everyone in the room laughed good-naturedly at Alice's confidence, which instantly made Alice lose confidence. Her face flushed, and she nervously tugged at Rudy's clothes, looking at him for help.

Rudy smiled and patted Alice's head, then said to her in Human language:

"Everyone thinks Alice is amazing, right? Even though we don't speak the same language, she's not timid at all."

Alice's eyes lit up immediately after being praised, and she rubbed her head against Rudy's palm proudly.

While comforting Alice, Rudy continued:

"I'm ashamed to say that, as I just said, Alice and I—no, our hometown—were struck by a massive magical disaster, and we were unexpectedly stranded here. In order to quickly return home and check on the well-being of our relatives and friends, I asked Mr. Ruijerud to bring us to your place. My goal is to borrow any valuable materials that the village may have."

"Although I haven't contributed as much to the village as Gawain and Roxy, please allow me to borrow their favor. Please!"

Rudy placed his palms in front of him in Japanese etiquette and pressed his forehead to the floor.

He had ridiculed the Demon Continent's monetary system before.

Therefore, he knew even more deeply how precious the thing he wanted to borrow was. Even though it was most likely left by Teacher Luo Qixi, it was not something left for him after all.

It was not the village chief who spoke, but Luo Yin who helped him up helplessly and gave a reassuring look to the frowning Alice.

Luo Yin retorted:

"How can you say you haven't made any contribution? Rudeus, why don't you just rest in the village today and walk around? You'll see that many of the convenient things in the village today were invented by you, right? Even the children's textbooks have your name all over them. We've been hoping to treat you well for a long time, but the circumstances aren't right this time."

"The materials in the village were originally left by Gawain and Lokisi. How can you not be allowed to use them freely? For any missing materials, please use the village's savings to purchase them in Licaris City."

"Rudeus, you are the benefactors of the village."

"Even without discussing these matters, you are still an important student of Lokisi, a friend of Ruijerudo, and an important guest of our clan."

"Stop saying such rude things."

Rudy smiled relaxedly, his mouth twitching so much that his eyelids trembled. He responded as casually as possible:

"I'll listen to you, Uncle Luo Yin."

Luo Yin was instantly alert:

"uncle?"

Rudy was embarrassed and wanted to explain:

"Which... me... Gao Wen and the teacher..."

Luo Yin stood up and protested loudly:

"I will never admit it!"

Rudy's rare applause from his soulmate:

"me too!"

Although they supported completely different things, they inexplicably developed a sense of mutual appreciation and their relationship suddenly became close.

After explaining to the confused Alice, Alice, who also supported Sylphy, joined in.

at the same time.

Luo Qixi is still in a coma.

Note: In the later part of the original work, there is a detail about exchanging Asura gold coins for the currency of the Demon Continent at the Adventurer's Guild in Licaris City, but this is not used in this work.

(The Adventurer's Guild has a currency exchange service)

As everyone knows, Rudy's math is not good. According to Rudy's initial experience, one Asura gold coin is equivalent to one hundred green mine coins (the highest currency in the Demon Continent). This can only be said to be humorous.

The high-priced ticket specially provided by the Spelud clan that forced Rudy to want to sell the Water Dragon King is only two hundred green ore coins (2 gold). It will take several years to earn enough money with A+S commission and three people sharing (one room).
