Despite Being an Extra, I'm the Villain's Childhood Friend - Chapter 49.1
Chapter 49.1
In addition to being skilled, this field also required a certain degree of moral deficiency. However, the boy in front of her looked too innocent.
Kirscha, who had been contemplating, tilted her head and asked.
“How old are you?”
“Tw, twelve years old.”
Camry couldn’t understand why he was answering here, but his body straightened up as if it were naturally responding to the interview.
“You’re young. Have you had any rough experiences?”
“I was captured by slave traders some time ago.”
“Did you escape cleanly?”
“The slave market was bombed.”
“Ah. You’re talking about Toulouse.”
Kirscha laughed as if she found it amusing.
“Not bad.”
What do you mean, not bad?
At this rate, it seemed like he would get a job at the Information Guild.
Knowing that, Camry couldn’t move at Robert’s words.
Why?
What the hell was this burden on his heart? Was it wrong to impersonate Armaty’s adopted son three years ago? He even apologized for saying things about Krug disease, so why the hell was he being swayed around?!
He felt like crying at his own incomprehensible state.
“So, are you accepting him?”
As Robert asked then as if to confirm, Kirscha tapped her chin with her index finger as if she were contemplating.
“Well,”
“You said he’s not bad?”
“I didn’t say he was good either.”
At those words, Robert’s expression turned cold.
“You seem to enjoy wordplay.”
Red mana began to shimmer at his fingertips. At the same time, Oren, who had been watching, called out his name as if to stop him.
“Robert.”
However, the disciple didn’t listen to his master’s words, even when he heard them.
Swoosh!
As Robert drew his sword, the mana that had been shimmering at his fingertips grew instantly and enveloped the blade.
“I like using force.”
“It wouldn’t be bad to see your skills.”
Kirscha smirked, pulling up her red lips. At the sight of her clearly provocative act, Oren muttered.
“Stop it.”
And Camry, who was sitting between the two, was sweating profusely like a cold sweat.
No, what did he do to deserve this?
His eyes shook violently as if an earthquake had occurred, like a shrimp caught between whales.
In an instant, Robert swung his sword and attacked Kirscha. At the same time, something shot up from the empty floor and pierced through the table to protect her. It was a defensive magic tool that had been installed on the floor.
“Ugh!”
Camry, who was about to have his toes cut off by the instantly activated barrier, displayed unexpected agility and threw himself to one side.
But he was unlucky.
Wheeeng―! Whiz! Whizzing!
“Ahh! Gulp! Argh! Hot!”
He had to perform a dazzling step as he threw himself towards the side where the attack magic tools were densely installed.
“Hoo―”
“Isn’t that guy amazing?”
As Camry, who they thought was ordinary, dodged the arrows and javelins flying at him like the wind, genuine admiration flowed from Oren and Michael’s mouths. Robert, who had been about to go to the rescue, also stopped in his tracks with his mouth agape.
And after a while.
“Huff, huff, huff!”
Camry, who had been climbing trees and running through the forest since he was a child and had been the ace of the game of tag, was finally able to catch his breath.
Seeing him like that, Kirscha uttered a short word.
“Pass.”

Hidden Path Bookstore.
Gerald and Izeline, who had been arguing about learning magic, had entered a temporary truce in their conversation, which was going around in circles like a hamster wheel. Naturally, the topic of ‘the reason why Izeline was recruited as a mage’s disciple’ came up.
The answer came from Grosh.
“It’s because you recognized this.”
As he said that, he gestured to the books in question. There were a total of two books in question at the Hidden Path Bookstore, and Grosh said that this number changed fluidly.
“What do you mean?”
“It’s exactly what I said. It becomes two books, then three, and sometimes it disappears altogether.”
“That’s ridiculous…”
“I swear on the pride of the Tower of Mages’ Stump.”
If he said that much…
Izeline’s eyes wavered at Grosh’s firm words.
The Tower of Mages’ stump could be roughly described as a library keeper, but they were far from ordinary library keepers in that they guarded the Tower of Mages’ library, which was a repository of knowledge.
The stump, who possessed the most knowledge in the Tower of Mages, which valued knowledge dearly, received the same respect as the Tower of Mages’ master. So, Gerald, who was constantly on the outs with the Tower of Mages’ master and the stump, could be said to be an outrageous villain.
Grosh’s explanation continued.
“We speculate that this is connected to another world.”
“….!”
“I sense a power that doesn’t belong to this world.”
