Chapter 3 - Vahl Village

As I open my eyes, for the second time I see this celling. Hmmm, I guess Klein put me back. Hmmm... While it the same room, but now I can feel something different. What kind of things is this that covering me?

[Skill Mana Detection has been acquired]

Oooo... It a mana. So I tried to move it by thought, but nothing happened. Well I can seriously feel it movement tho.

[Skill Mana Detection has been level up to lv.7]

"Oi, are you awake?" As I tried to concentrate feeling the Mana in the air, I hear a voice that kind of familiar.

"Ah, yeah." I answered as I move my sight to Klein that squeezing somsort of clothe. Ah, I can feel my tample kinda wet. Sigh, if only the one that helping was a beautiful girl, not a late 20s guy like him, this view must be great!

"Oi, oi, what with that disappointed face as you see me?"

"Ah, it just your feeling." As I tried to sit on the bed, while moving my neck and arms around as stretching my body. Seriously this bad is so hard! As I sit facing to Klein with a serious look, he seem stiff.

"My name is Charavgi Evlogia, thank for helping." I bow to him while saying those things.

"Ahh... I never thought you gonna said those with that kind of serious face. If it about that, there no need to said thanks. Isn't it normal to help other people that needed?" Hoo.. he thought something like that is normal. Hmm maybe our common sense is difference since I come from other world. In our world, bought strangers to your own home is dangerous after all. Or maybe he confidence with himself that he can stop me if I am a dangerous character.

"Even tho, please accept my gratitude. If you didn't help me, I am sure I already inside some wild animals belly."

"Hahahaha, if you said it like that, I guess I must accept your gratitude." Reply him with a big laugh.

"But Klein, didn't you think it dangerous to bought a stranger to your own home? What if I am a wanted personage? Or maybe you're confident that you can stop me?" I ask him as I shrugs, while looking at him sharply.

"Ahhh, you're kinda sharp. Do you have any thoughts to do something harmful to me?" Retort him, somehow I can feel something pressuring me.

[Skill Bloodlust Resistance has been level up to lv.8]

... Oioioi... I can learn a skill just because of something like this? Hmm...

"Ohh... Oh you aren't even trembling as you feel my bloodlust? Seems like you aren't just a normal student of Regaia Royal University."

[Skill Bloodlust Resistance has been level up to lv.10]

[Skill Bloodlust Resistance has been level up to lv.11]

.... my skill keep leveling up, is Klein that strong? Hmmm, how do I use identification skill? Right away, some sort status screen pop out in front of me.

Indeed, he is strong, what made me curious is his title, Rank A Adventurer, also his Dex. He can move 9 times faster then normal human, or 1.5 times of me. And what more he got a magic, acceleration! From the name I am sure it a buff magic that increasing movement speed. I am sighing after seeing those.

Klein can you stop emitting those bloodlust? Even tho it doesn't pressuring me, but still it annoying feeling those."

"Oh, I thought you gonna do something harmful to me?" He said with a smile full of sarcasm.

"...." Using Mana Detection, I can see the flow of his mana. looking at those flow I goes swinging my arm slowly cutting the part where his mana was thin..

[Skill Mana Control has been acquired]

[Magic Mana Cutter has been acquired]

[Skill Mana Detection has been level up to lv.14]

[Skill Mana Control has been level up to lv.10]

[Magic Mana Cutter has been level up to lv.10]

Eh???? Again I realized how much of cheat I am. Klein shocked as he feel his mana that he used to control the bloodlust was lost.

"Yo-you... Guh.. Hahaha... So all those things ain't an empty words. You can stop my Bloodlust just by swinging your arm, and cutting it with only mana. You are indeed one kind of genius from Regaia Royal University."

And there he goes misunderstanding me with his own imagination. Sigh... What should I do? I don't want other people know that I came from another world. On the other side I feel like Klein can be trusted. But it doesn't mean I need to tell him where I come from. Hmmm... Ahhh right, there is not only a student that goes to university, there also a teacher! So I change my status in my mind as I talking with Klein.

"You're misunderstood Klein, I am not a genius " yep, first let hide my other job and change it to teacher, then hide all other titles except for drifted away title .

"If you aren't genius, that kind of things is impossible, did you look down on me?" Said Klein, but my mind is full of changing my stats. Ah, I should make me status average around 50 point, and left my INT with 500 point so it not so suspicious. Hmm change my level number to 20-30 maybe? Ah Race! I almost forgotten about it. And there it goes I am ready for it.

"What is impossible? It wasn't hard if you see my status, and skill. Status." So I made my status screen appearing in front of him. But it made him shocked!

"How did you able to do that? By any chance do you have identification skill?!" Ahhhh... Damn, I should put identification there now, as I nodded my head.

"Ohhh... So you're a teacher in there, but still you're a genius. With only a basic skill and magic, you can stop my blood lust aura from Threatening skill. But now I am curious how the heck you can become a teacher there?! You don't even have any single attribute magic..." Oh, shit... I forgot he was sharp... What to do?! Right, I can just made some sort of story.

"Ehhh... You can't become a teacher there if you don't have any attribute magic?!" Ask me with an exaggerated expression.

"Huh? You don't even know about it? Wait a minute, are you lying to me when you said you were on trip to goes to the university?!"

"No, no, no, I goes there to be a teacher! I-I mean I just successfully changed my job to teacher... So..." I said as I acting depressed.

"Are you stupid?! How could you got admitted if you can't shoot a single magic? What did you want to teach if you don't even able to used attribute magic?" He gapping while saying those to me. Yosh... My plan is succeed.

"Ugh, I thought I can teach the other subjects, like reading and writing, or maybe math?" I reply as I turn away my face. Damn. I should hold my laugh....

"Oi, you already learned those in public school! Without those 2 they can't get admitted to Regaia Royal University. Only public adventurer school didn't learn those!" Eh this world got a public school? But what? Adventurer didn't learn those 2?

"I don't know about it... I live alone with my teacher beforehand..." Ugh... One lie need to be closed with another lies.

"Ahhh, I understand, so that why you only had a basic skill. You're really a lucky person, aren't you? You can raise your level until 26 only with this kind of skill? Is it because your blessing that you able to do that?"

"Uhh.... Yeah.." I nodded, ah fast learner is a Minor version of world teacher. It only increasing learning speed by 2 times, and it only effect yourself.

"Sigh... You better wait for another years then while sharpening your skill and magic here, before you try to take the teacher examination there." Uaaahhhh.. he really believe that I wanted to be a teacher, and giving a serious advice. Sorry Klein, I am lying to you.

"As long as you're staying here, I'll help you to learn a couple of magic, even tho I look like this, I was a Rank A Adventurer before. Also we both got wind attribute." He said we big grin... Uahhhh... I feel much more guilty.

"Ummm... Then thank you in advance for your assistance."

"Nah, no problems, and it seems you can learn sword art, since your stats is kinda balanced except for your ridiculous INT, but I don't think you can reach Great Swordman tho. Well, at least you can defend yourself in melee. So I'll also teach you swords art."

Ugh... My debt keep increasing...

"Nnn, if that so Klein, let me clean your home at least. I'll got uncomfortable if I only do nothing and got all those things from you."

"Hahahahaha... Alright then. But before those, we better meet with the village chief first. I know you lost all your belongings when you got drifted. Because I only found you stranded on the side of the river. If you gonna staying here, we must inform the chief. Since he need to know at least there someone new living in his village without any identification." he goes up after saying those.

"Is that so? Then sure." So I followed him, I don't know where is it either way. As we goes outside of Klein places, we met an uncle with a short blonde hair, he is around 40 years old I think. Seeing Klein walking outside he greet us.

"Hey, Klein." As he said those, he goes over to us.

"Ah, Arnold. Hmm, have you go to your farm?" With a warm smile Klein, greet him back.

"Yes, I already go there. I just come back from there after all. Where are you going? I haven't seen you this past 2 days."

"Indeed, well I just pick up some troublesome guys two days ago after all. And right now I am guiding that troublesome guy to the chief house." He said while pointing his thumb to me. Oi, he is bad mouthing me, right? Who is troublesome guys! It not like I wanted to be stranded near the river!

"And who is he?"

"Hmm, the troublesome guy that I talked about. I found him stranded near the river 2 days ago. Because couple of things he gonna stayed for a year."

"Oh, so that what happened. Hello there, I am Arnold the one who got house right there. How are you feeling?" He said those while pointing the house that on the right side of Klein home. Afterwards he wiped his hand on his pant, then he offering a handshake to me.

"Good evening mister Arnold, my name is Charavgi Evlogia. It nice to see you, and also I am already feeling great." I said with polite tone, as I shake his hand.

"Hahaha, you're polite youngsters, but just called me Arnold, it seems weird to hear someone calling me with mister as a suffix."

"Aahh, alright then mis– I mean Arnold." While you think it weird being called mister, but in my country before, it was weird if someone younger called a senior by 20 years just by their names. I should try to adapting this world common sense.

"Well, since you guys still got another business, we should catch up later on. And Klein, come to the village Bar, once in a while. The villagers kinda miss you, when you go there don't forget to tell me. So we can drink together."

"Hahaha, no problems Arnold. Let's go drinking then the day after tomorrow, after I come back from hunting." Reply Klein, afterwards we split up until Arnold house, then we goes to the village center. Klein home is located on the edges near the west gate, while the village chief house is in front of the village center.

When I ask why do you build your home at the edge, he said 'well I am a Hunter it much more convenient if I am near the gate. Also I am not like the chief that need to watch and help all the work on the village, so there's no need for me to build my home at the heart of the village. And what more convenient is the butcher is only two house after mine! Other then that, sometimes the village guards ask me for their help I guess. But well, there only 37 family here anyway, so even if I am near the west gate, it isn't like I need to walk 1 hour just to reach East gate.'

When I heard those, that seems a good reason to build your house there. Well, this village name is Vahl. The broad field that I seen before was the village center, it a circular field, and the other house were build surrounding it in a circular arrangements with 3 main street, going through west gate, East gate, and southeast. Even tho, it called gate, it only made of wood that around 4 m tall, so do the wall surrounding the village. If you wondering about why it only 3 gates, it seem on the Northside there dangerous area called Vahl Mountain. Yep, it because of that mountain the village named Vahl, since it the nearest village from there. And on the Southwest there Killiki Forest. That why the gate is only on the safest direction. Well back to the overall condition of the villageas Klein said, this village is only 500m in diameter. Also as we walk the things that really obvious for me is the villagers eyes! I can heard and see them pointing at me like looking a rare animal. Sobs... Well they only said things like 'who is that?' 'he got a black hair.' or 'ah, the stranded guy!'. Danyuummmmm, I can understand the first one or the second one, since I am new and no one got black hair around here. But it seems the last one is because they met with Klein as he drag me from the river side.

... Seems like I am quite popular in this village, as a stranded man. Not to long, only 10-15 min by walking slowly, we arrive in front of the village center. It diameter is around 30m I guess, and from here the village chief house is the one nearest with it and the biggest one! So it pretty obvious which one is his house, maybe the building width around 15m?

"Woah, it broad." I said in amazement. How much money it took to make this kind of wooden house in Earth? No, it a villa! While I am thinking stupid things like that Klein explaining to me.

"Hahaha, the village chief house is also used as a meeting place when we planning something for the village. Also when there adventurer, Traveller, merchant or Noble coming through our village, his house also used as their place for the night. That is why the villagers build his house much bigger since it become like the village face."

After saying that, he goes over to the door and knock it three times. Hmm is it also a culture here to knock door three times? Then from inside there a footsteps sound, that kinda hasty. That stopping behind the door, before opening the door slowly. There a girl peeking between the gap, from her face I think she is around 15-16 years old. After seeing Klein she open the door fully, she got a wavy brown hair that goes until her shoulder, a thin eyebrows, navy blue eyes, also a cute small nose and mouth. Her height around 170 since her sight is around Klein chin, with a proposional body, that ain't fat nor slim. There also few flakes on her face, but I guess it normal since this world have medieval age setting. I'll be shocked if she got a smooth skin with this world technology... But there also magic, can you do a skin care with magic? I wonder.

"Ooo, it Klein~ what kind of business that you come here Klein?" Ask the girl happily. I can smell something! She look really happy seeing Klein.

"Evening Grace, well I got some business with village chief." Seems like her name is Grace.

"Eh, with Grandpa?" She look disappointed.

"Yes, is he home?"

"Enn, grandpa is home." Then her sight goes to me. "By the way, who is that guy behind you?"

"Ah, he is the one that need to meet the chief." Explain Klein

"Good evening, my name is Charavgi Evlogia." I said.

"Oooo, evening~ I am Grace. Are you a noble?"

"Nah, he ain't a noble, it normal for people in his country to have a last name." Cut Klein, I only nod and say "yes"

"Is that so? Then hold on for few minutes, I'll called grandpa. Ah please do made yourself at home." After saying that, she run through the house. "GRANDPA, KLEIN WANT TO MEET YOU!"

... And she shouting, she is really energetic.

"Hahhahaha, that brat never change." Said Klein as he move to a sofa in that room.

"Aaa.. she is really energetic."

This room seems to be the living room or maybe the meeting place that Klein said beforehand. From my observation the room is around 100m². Seems like the living place for the chief is indeed used for utilities of the village. On the right side there a gorgeous tea table set, and few sofa near the fire place. And surrounding the room is chairs. Yep, I am completely convinced now, the reason for why the village chief house is so big is like what Klein said. At first I thought he embezzled some tax, but seems like he wasn't. After seeing around the room, I goes sit beside Klein.

"You doesn't seems amazed seeing the room." Said Klein as I sit down.

"Aaa, well I already assuming something like this when I heard your explanation. But well I didn't expect the village chief really used his house fully for the villager utilities."

"Oh, you're indeed sharp. Indeed, this room also used for the villager on winter, those that doesn't have fireplace in their home or their home is destroyed can used this place. That why it indeed spacious."

Eee, I never thought it like that. I thought all the house in the village was like Klein's home.

"Mmm... He is a good village chief then." We continue chatting while waiting for the chief. Not too long, a grandpa come into the room. I am sure he is the village chief. He also got a wavy hair, and also he got a long beard! His hair color already goes grey tho, but his face shape, and eyes is the same as Grace. From what I know from Klein the village chief is 57 years old. He still look healthy and energetic tho. He followed by Grace that somehow pouting. Did something happen?

"Ohohoho, good evening Klein." He look happy when seeing Klein, but there a way smile on his face! And Grace seems uncomfortable, when he look at me he observing me carefully. "And who are you?"

"Evening chief, he is Charavgi Evlogia, the guy that I found stranded 2 days ago." Explain Klein.

"Good evening, my name is Charavgi Evlogia. It nice to see you." I immediately goes standing as I introduced myself, even tho Klein already introducing me.

"So you're that guy whose Klein save. My name is Rocthic, I am the village chief in this village. And the girl standing beside me, which shouting disgracefully, is my granddaughter Grace. But do take a note she isn't graceful as her name." Explain him, while emphasize the shouting part, and the grace play word. Hahahaha... So that why Grace is pouting, seems like she got preaching and now her own grandfather made her name as a play word.

"Uuuu!! I already introducing my name grandpa! And what with that!"

"See that, how ungraceful of her." Her grandfather retort her, with a meaningful smile. Yep, I hope you can rest in peace tonight Grace. Then without giving Grace tantrum another glance the chief goes over the sofa in front of us then looking at Klein.

"Well then Klein, what business do you have with me?"

"Ahhh, it about this guy, chief. He want to stayed for a year, since he can't reach in time for his job registration because he got drifted away till our village." With that been said, Klein starting to explaining my problems... That basically a lie... Ughh... I feel more guilty.... Thank you very much Klein... I feel like crying, I definitely will fall in love with him if I am a girl. But meh moe is the truth! Glasses girl is the way! While I am still thinking idiotic thought Klein already done explaining.

"Oh, so he won't make it in time if he goes right now."

"That is so, and what more he lost all of his belongings."

"I understand if that kind of thing happened, he indeed better to stayed here. But can I ask a question?" He look to me, and I am back from my stupid thought.

"Sure, village chief."

"What kind of job that you gonna take? This is important so I can give you a role for the village " ah, seems like there is no free food in this world too. I am allowed to live here, but I need to do some work.

"Ah, I plan to register as a teacher before I got stranded here, I was on my way to Regaia Royal University." He surprised when hearing me.

"Are you a noble?"

... Why is this kind of questions keep repeating? Is that university really that great? Or I guess it combination between that and my last name. So I explaining it to village chief like when Klein ask me.

"Ohohoho, so it my misunderstanding. Alright then I allowed you to live here until the next registration."

Afterwards we chat about a small things until night come knocking.
