Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

"Really!"

"Of course."

I looked into Lilith's eyes, which were as deep as the ocean, completely unfathomable. She was clearly a sophisticated and shrewd woman.

What does it matter? Saving your life is the most important thing.

But this person's appearance is just like Lala's. I don't know why, but both of my arms have recovered. I guess it's the effect of a King-level healing spell. But why would a King-level healing spell travel all the way from Asura to help me heal my arms?

And what's the purpose of giving me the granddaughter of the Aiolos family, one of the four great lords?

"However, I still have some doubts."

“It’s normal for Lord Rudius to have doubts. Tell me, and I will be able to resolve them for you.”

"My two hands are..."

"Lord Rudeus's two hands were originally severed, but this is all thanks to His Highness Prince Halphas. Ever since the heroic deeds of Lord Rudeus in defeating the Lanoa garrison single-handedly were told in Asra, His Highness Halphas has attached great importance to Lord Rudeus. Therefore, he specially requested a royal-level healing scroll from the Holy Kingdom of Milis to heal Lord Rudeus's arms."

"Rumors spread really fast..."

Bad news travels fast! I never imagined that the news had already reached Asura, only a few months ago.

However, His Highness Halfas must have gone to great lengths to obtain a King-level healing scroll; there might be some additional conditions attached.

"What does His Highness Halfas want me to do?"

If I'm not mistaken, Prince Halphas's backers must be the Aiuros family; otherwise, there's no way that such a windfall would come from heaven—gifting beautiful women and scrolls to heal hands.

As Lilith dressed in front of me without any hesitation, she calmly shook her head and said:

"His Highness Halfas does not ask Lord Rudeus to do anything for him, but only hopes to lend a hand when Lord Rudeus is in trouble."

Help me out when I'm in trouble...

If only things were really like this...

I looked out the window and saw that the sunlight was already streaming into the room. Outside the window, several horses were leisurely grazing with their heads down, and they were wearing the armor of the Kingdom of Asura.

"What about the army you brought yesterday?"

“That is Prince Halfas’s guard cavalry, sent specifically to protect me.”

That makes sense. After all, she's the daughter of the Aiolos family, so it's normal for her to have someone escort her. Unlike me, whose status isn't legitimate, I can only be escorted by a caravan.

Things may be moving in a positive direction, and they might be able to help me in the future. Whether it's Philip's abduction or my own decision, I've already embarked on a path of no return.

"Lord Rudeus performed very well last night, and I was very happy. If Lord Rudeus is pleased, please feel free to come and see me anytime."

Before anyone knew it, Lilith had already dressed and left the room.

La Noah Magic University

……

The opening ceremony of Lanoa Magic University was held on the first day of spring. As a giant school with tens of thousands of students, the opening ceremony of Lanoa Magic University was very grand. The ceremony was crowded with students of all kinds, including Milis, Asura, beastmen, demons and so on, just like the colorful garden in the Silver Palace of Asura.

Addressing a diverse group of students, the principal began with a speech:

"Gentlemen, for many years, magicians have been looked down upon by swordsmen. It's true that swordsmanship, created by figures like the Sword God, can indeed be called supreme! But! Magic is also supreme! Swordsmanship is at best a tool for killing, but magic is different; magic has a future! The revival of lost magic systems combined with existing incantations, achieving a completely new evolution, will become people's..."

After a long and tedious speech, the students below were extremely impatient. Some were joking around, some were playing around, and some even started arguing or fighting over a few words.

"Next, please welcome the freshman representative, Hilfiet, to give a speech."

After the principal's speech, the host invited Hilfiet, the freshman representative who had passed the entrance exam with a perfect score, to give a speech on behalf of the freshmen.

Some people knew who the person standing on the brick platform was, so they waited very quietly for Hilfi to speak.

But some people don't have such foresight...

"Is that green-haired person a Sprud?"

"Get out of here, you Sperud!"

"Come between my legs and I'll spare you!"

……

The jeering crowd was ruthless, but Hilfiet paid no attention, her eyes scanning everyone in the room.

"Rudy isn't here..."

Jobless Reincarnation: Even Without Transfer Events, I Will Still Live Seriously [Chapter 117] Waiting

Chapter 117: Let's Wait and See

……

Lilith closed the door and left the room.

Lilith...it seems she came prepared.

Offering cannons as a gift and healing his arm—perhaps this is the sincerity of Prince Halfas, the second prince.

But most importantly, I have finally said goodbye to being a virgin for almost fifty years!

I remember Lala saying something like, in another world I was helping a princess become king with Sylphie... Princess Halphas doesn't seem like a princess at all.

Could it be that because the timelines are different, the people I encounter are also different?

Never mind all that, let's go see how Professor Merlin is doing.

I picked up my shirt, unbuttoned the left arm, put on my clothes, and left the room.

The courtyard was filled with low, but exquisitely painted, square houses. Next to my room last night was the stable, with only a few horses, which seemed to be the thrones of Lilith and several important members of the cavalry.

This is a noble post station. I think I've seen this place before. I passed by here last time when I came with Hilfi to buy lime, the raw material for chalk. It is located south of Rosenberg, the second largest city in the Duchy of Basheland, and is about three to five days' journey from La Noah Magic University.

Unfortunately, the hotel the Magic Association arranged for us was far too basic, a world apart from this place. I'd rather sleep in a cave full of slimes than stay in that kind of hotel...

Well, thinking about it, it's more likely I'll survive in a hotel than in a cave full of slimes.

I wandered around the post station and hardly saw any other guards, knights, or villagers; they were probably relocated elsewhere.

I walked to the counter, which was no different from the Magic Association and Adventurers' Guild I had seen before, with fairly ordinary decor. The receptionist was wearing a figure-hugging uniform, and after glancing at her a few times, I couldn't help but think of the uniform section I often clicked on on small websites in my previous life.

"Excuse me, sir, how can I help you?"

As soon as I walked up to her, before I could even speak, the receptionist politely inquired about my situation.

"I'd like to ask if there's an elderly gentleman named Merlin living here. If he does, could you tell me which room he's in?"

"Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the receptionist began to flip through the ledger on the counter. She had only turned two pages when she pointed to a line in the ledger and said:

"The Mr. Merlin you are looking for lives in the first room after you enter the gate."

"Okay, thank you very much."

After saying goodbye to the receptionist, I went to Professor Merlin's room.

"The first room on the left after entering..."

is here.

"Knock knock, knock knock"

"Mr. Merlin, your package has arrived."

I knocked a few times, but there didn't seem to be any response.

There's probably no one in the room.

"What are you doing, sneaking around in front of my room, old man?"

Upon hearing Mr. Merlin's voice, I quickly turned around and saw that his complexion was much better than it had been a few days ago, indicating that he had recovered.

"Mr. Merlin, it seems you are alright now."

"Hmph, I guess so."

Have you had breakfast yet?

"not yet."

I gently shook my head, and Teacher Merlin then pulled me by the collar and led me to the back of the post station.

It turns out there was a restaurant behind the inn, and you could see the snowy scenery outside the city from the restaurant. How should I put it, it felt like a Holiday Inn.

After the waitress brought the food, I picked up a piece of bread with my left hand and a piece of beef with my right. I really miss that feeling of using both hands simultaneously.

Having both hands allows for eating, which also improves the speed of eating.

"Speaking of which, that little girl named Lilith is quite capable. After all, you can't assign everyone to work as blackboards. Lilith even helped with some of them, saying that when the cavalry returns to Asura, they will be taken along to live in Asura. As long as you are willing to work in Asura, you will definitely not go hungry. I can rest assured."

Lilith even solved the villagers' problems... I don't know how to thank her. She appeared at the crucial moment, healed my arm, helped me lose my virginity, and even helped solve the villagers' problems. Although I know it must have been the work of the Second Prince, Prince Halfas, it really helped me a lot.

"Then I really should thank her properly."

As expected of a noble inn, the bread is sweet and fluffy, and the beef is chewy and bouncy—it's delicious!

Although it may be related to the fact that I ate dry food for many days.

This was breakfast, and for the first time ever, I ate two pieces of bread, a piece of beef, and a large bowl of fish soup. Normally, I would probably only need one piece of bread.

"I think it's about time I taught you something."

Teacher Merlin took out his cigarette holder again, and puffs of white smoke came out of his mouth and nose.

"real!?"

It's time to teach me something, and without a doubt, it's the Chaos Demon!

I followed Teacher Merlin out of the post station and walked for about twenty minutes until we arrived at an open area.

Perhaps the Chaos Demon is some kind of high-level offensive magic.

After instructing me to stand still, Ms. Merlin walked to a position about twenty meters away from me.

I have a bad feeling. Could it be that I'm going to have to spar with Master Merlin?

"Mr. Merlin, what's going on?"

"Of course, I'll teach you magic tricks."

Having said that, Merlin rushed forward. Although he didn't have a sword, Merlin's hand was positioned as if he were drawing one. I had seen that gesture before, and I remembered that Paul seemed to have used it on me once.

Correct!

It's the Silent Blade!

Using mud in snow will freeze it immediately, so it won't be able to restrict the mud's effect. So, it's better to...

"Ice Domain!"

I gripped the ground with one hand, and the frozen snow instantly stretched to Mr. Merlin's feet, when he was still about five meters away from me.

Teacher Merlin's feet are frozen in ice, that's great!

If I had used the Ice Domain instead of the Mud Swamp when I sparred with Paul, I might have been able to prevent him from using his Quadruped Form to slide down the Mud Swamp to my face and deliver a silent katana blow.

"Shockwave!"

Merlin-sensei freed one hand and swung it slightly downwards, instantly using the wind magic [shockwave] to shatter the ice that had sealed his leg, and then continued running towards me.

No, it's about to get right in my face!

"Shockwave!"

I used the Wind Magic [Shockwave] with both hands to propel myself backward, creating distance between myself and Merlin-sensei once again.

Although Merlin has the upper hand in terms of physique, and his strength and technique are beyond my reach, he is, after all, a magician. Compared to Paul, who is superior to the Water God Style, Sword God Style, and Northern God Style, he still lacks the sharpness of a swordsman.

Now that I've created some distance, I'm going to fight back!

"Rock shell!"

A gust of wind carried the rock cannonball out of my hand.

Because I was facing Merlin, I had no intention of taking his life. The rock projectile was extremely fast, but I controlled its power to the point that it was only enough to knock someone unconscious.

With a slight turn of his body, Teacher Merlin easily dodged my rock projectile.
