Chapter 1661 – What Are You Going To Do Now?
"Kasugano, are you sure that you're not going to go to the Earlshide Kingdom?" The guards' leader looked at Haru with regret since he couldn't invite him to the kingdom, but he also knew the temptation of that country for a businessman.
"Yes."
Haru nodded and said, "Thank you for your help before, but I have made up my mind."
"I see…" The leader of the guards nodded and said, "Then I won't stop you, and by the way, this is a reward from our princess. You can also come to the kingdom anytime. We'll help you if you need help."
Haru looked at the sack held by the guards' leader, and from the sound inside the sack, he knew very well that it was money. He didn't know how much it was, but he knew that after hearing that they were from the Earlshide Kingdom, they wouldn't be stingy, and he didn't have money, so he accepted the money without hesitation.
"Thank you, if you also need help, then you can also ask me," Haru said without hesitation and gave a slight nod at the carriage since he knew that the one who gave him money was the person inside the carriage. He then said goodbye to everyone then moved very fast toward the direction of the Els.
When everyone saw Haru's speed, they were startled and thought that Haru might be stronger than they had thought. When everyone was in their stupor and lost for words, one voice woke them up.
"Has he gone?"
A beautiful yet feminine that was filled with dignity was heard from inside the carriage.
"Yes, Coral-sama."
The girl didn't say much afterward, but looking in the direction where Haru had disappeared and couldn't help but let out a long sigh since she didn't expect that they would be separated soon, but then she quickly shook her head since she also knew her status as a crown prince's fiancee, so she should avoid a close relationship with the opposite gender. Still, she had to admit that she really enjoyed his stay. After all, even though both of them hadn't met each other, she heard his story from inside the carriage, which made her laugh from time to time.
Lastly, even though she knew that it was a bit indecent of her, she had to admit that he was very handsome.
The girl sighed at a loss, but after that, she quickly received herself since she knew that soon she would return to the kingdom, and she couldn't show her shameful state.

Haru didn't waste his time and flew directly toward the Els since he knew the general location of that nation.
In truth, Haru wanted to learn more information about this world, but what he had learned from the guards' leader was enough for him to know the general information about this world, especially when he learned about the Swedes Kingdom.
Haru knew that he needed to protect the Swedes Kingdom on one of his quests, and from what the leader of the guards told him, the Swedes Kingdom was a small kingdom that was located between the Earlshide Kingdom and the Bluesphere Empire.
If Haru wanted, it would be possible to conquer the Swedes Kingdom directly by manipulating the mind of the royalty of that kingdom, or rather, he could become the king of any country that he wanted to be, but his quests didn't tell him to do so, and he loved something more challenging, so he decided to go to Els, building his own power there, after all, Els was one of the four strongest nations or kingdom, or whatever in this continent, and the one with the biggest power was the richest merchant, so without hesitation, he went to that country.
The Earlshide Kingdom might also be good, but in the end, the one who held in power was the royalty and the nobility. Haru didn't have a status, and even though the rules told the nobility of the Earlshide Kingdom to prosper, the life of the commoner, he didn't believe that all of the nobility would follow the rules. After all, when there was white, there had always been a black. The world had always been gray, so rather than being exploited by the nobility, it was better to go to a nation where there weren't any nobilities.
Haru's status in this world was only a small commoner, after all, and it wouldn't be fun to show his power directly to scare those who were in power, and it would have been better if he had some other background than genius magicians.
It wasn't that Haru chose to become a magician. Still, his quest told him to join a magician academy, after all, so he decided to become a magician, but he knew that it wasn't enough. After all, he was sure that the protagonist in this world must have some special identity or something.
Haru knew from the guards' leader before the Advanced Magic Academy was one of the best magician academies in this continent, and it was located at the Earlshide Kingdom. He also heard that the registration of the academy would start in two months, so, in two months, he decided to build his power in the Els federation.
Haru somehow got excited, and as expected, it had always been very fun to do an adventure. He felt anticipation, then found a group of people and directly made all of them pass out since he wanted more information.

In another place, on the edge of the cliff, a young man was meditating, using his magic to detect all the creatures in the jungle. He could see various animals, but he didn't focus on all of them. But he was more focused on searching for the demon in this forest.
Demon… when someone heard that name, a lot of people would think that it was a creature that originated from hell, but in this world, a demon was an animal which without any intelligence and control over their strong Mana, ran rampant and became a dangerous creature.
The demons were a dangerous existence, and once they appeared in the forest, they might destroy the forest's ecosystem. Hence, the young man always exterminated them whenever they appeared in the forest.
"Fiuh…"
The young man let out a sigh of relief and said, "I guess there's no demon today." He looked at his surroundings and still couldn't believe that it was almost 15 years since he had been reincarnated in this world.
"Soon, I'll become an adult…"
The young man murmured that since he was about to reach 15 years old and in this country, 15 years old was an adult. He then extended his hand toward the sky and smiled when he thought of how happy his life in this world was.
"Shin, where are you? Hurry up and go back!"
The young man heard an anxious voice and smiled. "Jii-chan, I'm here!"
An elderly man then appeared beside the young man, looking at the young man in front of him with a helpless expression. "You're about to reach 15 years old soon, don't play around the forest all the time."
The relationship between the elderly man and the young man was very close since they were a grandfather and a grandson.
"But Jii-chan, if a demon appears, then the forest might be destroyed," the young man said with a hint of worry.
"…"
Looking at his grandson, the elderly man wanted to say that there was no normal 14-year-old boy who was hunting a demon in the forest. Somehow he was a bit worried about this young man's future since he hadn't been taught about common sense, but when he saw how powerful his grandson was, he didn't think too much and said, "Well, next month will be your birthday, do you have something that you want?"
"Hehe.. then I want…" The young man smiled mischievously and listed the gifts that he had always wanted.
"…."
The elderly man looked at his grandson again and asked him to teach him some ridiculously powerful magic, but in the end, he only smiled and patted his grandson, thinking that his grandson was very talented!
The young man smiled and looked at his surroundings again, feeling that it might be good to see around the city after he had become an adult soon, and somehow he anticipated his future.
