I Became the Only Buffer in the Academy

225 – Power Increase – 6

When we arrived in England, Elizabeth looked at me with concern. His expression seemed to suggest that if he was fighting villains, wouldn’t it be better to get support?

“We can call more people from the Taylor family. Your grandfather is probably in the mansion right now…”

“If there are too many people, the villains won’t attack.”

okay. The number of participants in this event is limited to 4 people. Regardless of whether there are more than one person, if there are more than four people, the event will not occur.

Of course, this is something like this in a game, so I don’t know if it will actually happen like that. Because it’s easier to catch one person than four.

But it would be crazy to send Elizabeth alone to check on that.

“Is that so? Uhm… then there’s nothing we can do about it…”

It seems he doesn’t like the fact that he has to fight the villain. Jin Si-yeon smiled at her.

“Ah. Are you scared?”

“W-are you scared?! What can you say? I’m just worried about Yohan!!”

“It’s okay! I will protect Yohan!”

Yoo Cho-ah, who is a medium-long range dealer but has learned some skills and can now attack in close range, said confidently. Looking at her like that, Elizabeth sighed softly and nodded.

“Johan. Did you hear? If we have to fight, you don’t participate. Just give me the buff.”

“okay okay.”

I have no intention of doing it even if told to do so. If you catch me, I have to run away as much as possible. After asking me to make a promise several times and even putting her little finger on the line, she smiled brightly, as if relieved.

“So? Where should I go?”

“First, the British Museum in London.”

The British Museum would have been open by now. After seeing that it was past ten in the morning, I asked Elizabeth to call me a taxi.

Speaking fluent English, she wondered as she hailed a taxi and traveled to the British Museum.

“Will a villain appear in the British Museum?”

“No. There’s something I need to check there, Elizabeth. Do you have the scabbard fragments?”

With that, there is something you need to check by going to the area where the ancient British relics are located.

“Huh? Yes. I have it.”

“That’s it. You can just take it out and show it later.”

“all right.”

There were quite a few people at the British Museum, which we arrived at after taking a taxi. There are quite a few people who are seen as heroes as well as ordinary people.

It’s natural. Most of the things in the British Museum are relics. Not only are there things like the ones we use that contain mysterious power, but there are also many things that are full of historical value.

Since we have to protect those things, we have no choice but to properly defend ourselves.

“Isn’t it dangerous if this place gets robbed?”

“So, it is said that the British Heroes’ Association stores the originals of relics that are considered dangerous. And if someone meets the qualifications, they will loan them out. My grandfather also borrowed equipment from the British Museum at times.”

“Well, they say Korea handles it similarly. Among the ancient relics, there are many precious items. Is it a piece of Manpasikjeok? I heard there was a huge fight over that alone.”

A piece of Manpasikjeok. It is said that if you collect all the pieces, you can use the dragon, but in the game, you couldn’t actually collect them all.

Because it was an unrealized item to begin with.

Of course, I don’t know if that’s the case here too…

“Okay. Where should we go now?”

“Let’s go in the direction of the British antiquities.”

After passing the people watching here and there, we headed to the British Antiquities Hall. As it is a place where relics from all over the world are collected, there were quite a few good-looking relics.

“Wow! Look at that! Cane! Cane!”

“Your orb is better.”

“It’s just pretty~!”

“Oh… that sword. Looks okay…?”

“It’s a Viking sword. The Black Moon you use is better.”

Orb of Fire and Black Moon are also relics that cannot be pushed aside anywhere. Is that why? The expressions of the two became more triumphant.

“I still like the sword you made better.”

“Haha. Thank you for that. Ah, here it is.”

When we arrived at the place where the ancient British relics were located, we saw a stone tablet. The stone tablet stored inside the glass had dense writing written on it in ancient rune.

“There’s nothing special here, so there aren’t any people.”

“That’s right.”

It was quiet from the moment I entered the Ancient British Pavilion, and there was no one here at all. Well, it’s an exhibition room with only one stone slab, so it’s worth it…

Yoo Cho-ah, looking around, approached the stone slab in the center of the exhibition room. Then, after looking around at it, he looked back at us and asked.

“What does this say?”

“Well, the ancient rune language is difficult to interpret…”

“John. Do you know?”

“huh.”

“really?!”

“Shall I read it to you? Oh. You are my love. My sun. My light. My heart longs for you to come…”

“…is that right?”

“that’s right.”

I pointed to the sign in front of me. There was an English interpretation written there. While Yoo Cho-ah and Jin Si-yeon looked helpless, Elizabeth giggled and nodded after reading the explanation.

“It’s a message conveying love. It’s written in an ancient rune language. How romantic!”

“Wow… the person who wrote this really won’t be able to close his eyes even if he dies. This article he wrote will be in the museum…”

“So? Why is this?”

I laughed and tapped Elizabeth on the back. Then she took out a fragment of the sword sheath from her pocket.

– Ugh…!!

A subtle light began to emanate from the stone slab along with a low vibrating sound. A small amount of light, known only to us here, stayed in some of the ancient rune letters on the stone tablet and then disappeared again.

“…What was that just now?”

“A clue to finding Avalon.”

“Then is this also the tablet left behind by Merlin?”

“That’s right. Now, shall we go?”

I saw everything there was to see at the museum. Everyone looks excited. Actually, it would be amazing.

“But what were the letters that appeared earlier?”

“Can you read?”

I shrugged my shoulders in response to both of their questions.

Can you read? Of course I know.

“Come west. Come west. There are traces of the king in the lake to the west.”

“…Did you really know how to read ancient runes?”

“You said you knew how to read.”

I often saw this when I was playing games in my past life, and I often used ancient runes during other events, so I memorized them.

In addition to that memory, I also studied separately here, so I can read and write quite a few ancient runes.

“Wow… you’re capable!”

“Heh. Your lover is like this.”

I smiled at the admiring Yoo Cho-ah, and she burst into laughter and hugged me.

“Yes! That’s cool!”

“Hehehe. I already knew.”

“me too.”

I really appreciate that!

“It’s nice to be praised, but I have to leave now. Aren’t you hungry?”

Because we got together without even having dinner. Let’s eat something simple and move on.

I left the museum with them. We stopped Yoo Cho-ah from saying that since we were in England, we had to eat British food, and after a quick hotdog for lunch, we headed to our next destination.

“Lake Dozmari?”

“Yes. It must be quite a famous place in its own way. It is said to be the place where King Arthur received Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake.”

After lunch, move to Plymouth, west of London. There, I rented a car and headed to Lake Dozmari. I told the two people in the backseat what happened when I got the fragment of the sword sheath.

“But Lake Dozmari has already been investigated…”

“Didn’t you say it was the same when you got the fragment of the scabbard? It’s difficult to do a simple investigation because you have to follow the path made by Merlin.”

“okay…”

“And… maybe there will be a customer waiting for us there.”

“…You mean there could be a battle?”

Jin Si-yeon spoke softly while lightly holding the black moon and I nodded. They probably watched us from the British Museum.

There must have been a surveillance camera installed by the villains in that exhibition room.

“The British Museum hasn’t fallen into the hands of a villain, right?”

“That’s not true. It’s just that there was a villain among those disguised as repair workers there.”

And the villain just installed a camera there.

“Are you saying you tampered with the security cameras?”

“That’s right. It’s highly likely that it was hacked or manipulated separately.”

“You managed to figure it out. How did you figure it out?”

“When I was looking through the association’s data, I found out that there was work to replace security cameras there not long ago. And when I investigated, I found out that an employee at that company had suddenly quit the company.”

When I actually looked into it, it turned out to be so. Elizabeth’s expression hardened at my explanation.

Considering that villains are interfering in this way, there will be more than one area that needs to be re-examined.

Perhaps the Taylor family’s facilities should also be re-examined.

“So… haha… I see… it would be better if he wasn’t a strong villain.”

If it goes like Hero Academia, the enemy in this battle is not as strong a villain as she would like.

So I reassured her and pointed to one side.

“Ah. I can see it over there.”

Elizabeth stopped the car in the parking lot. After getting out of the car and freshening up, we headed straight to the lake.

The wind is really nice. When everyone was walking happily in the wind that smelled like water.

“…Yo, Johan.”

Elizabeth called me with a trembling voice. I guess that’s what I felt.

“Are the fragments of the scabbard moving?”

“yes.”

As I slowly took out the fragment of the scabbard from my pocket, it floated into the air and began to slowly fly towards a certain place. Elizabeth said while holding the fragment in her hand.

“Come this way…”

We walked as the fragments of the scabbard led us. So we arrived near Lake Dozmari.

In this place where nothing but a wide lake was visible, the fragments no longer moved.

“What should I do now?”

“We should announce our arrival in the ancient rune language.”

I lifted the bow of Gehenna and carved letters into the wet ground around the lake. The water passed over the letters with the sound of water slurping.

The ancient rune language I wrote was not influenced by water, but became increasingly clearer as the water passed.

When everyone was surprised to see that.

“…That’s it.”

You came.

Before we knew it, people were gathering behind us. About ten people? But it didn’t look that strong.

They covered themselves with robes and slowly drew their daggers and growled at us.

“Sword of the sheath….”

Before the man in the lead finished speaking coldly, I gave him the middle finger and shouted.

“Let’s take away everything they have!!”

“Oh oh!!”

“Plunder! Plunder!”

“Loot! Nice!!”

Take it away before it gets taken away!

That would be the most humiliating thing for you villains!
