Weiss and Leopin17

Weiss has bluffed his way out of many a tight spot in his life.

 

It was by bluffing that he saved Leopin, who was about to be beaten up by his classmates at the behest of the headmistress.

 

By taking the upperclassmen who beat him up by surprise and throwing them into the class, he misled his classmates into thinking he was a master fighter.

 

He made his classmates retreat, saying there was no way he could win in a fight with such an opponent.

 

The same thing happened when the alchemist offered them two potions.

 

It was because he had the elixir in his chest that he was able to act so fearlessly and move the woman’s heart.

 

For Weiss, the leader of the “saint hunters” becomes an unexpectedly strong enemy.

 

He was able to see through Weiss’s bluff with his situational analysis, logical thinking, and experience as a gardener.

 

His men, who had been on the run until a few minutes before, came to life.

 

They were slowly closing in on Weiss and narrowing the net around him.

 

Weiss was in a desperate situation.

 

However, he was never distraught.

 

If he showed even the slightest sign of agitation, he would only be swept away.

 

That is why Weiss even smiles.

 

“If you insist that much, I’ll show you. …… Don’t regret it, okay?”

 

Thanks to his fearlessness, he was barely able to prevent himself from being attacked all at once.

 

Weiss shoved his hands into his pockets with a natural movement.

 

He was a master of bluffing, but at the same time he was a user of various items.

 

Like a swan flapping its legs in the lake, he fumbled desperately in his pockets for something he could use.

 

His fingertips brushed against the cold cloth.

 

–The evil cloth is nothing more than a piece of a normal cloth. ……!

 

Even if I could use it, as soon as I take it out, the trick of my disappearance will be exposed. ……!

 

And that would set off a chain of events that would reveal my inability to use magic. ……

 

My fingertips touch the cold bottle–an elixir. ……!

 

If I offer it to them, they will take it and try to kill me. ……!

 

If I fight them while drinking, the result will be clear as day: ……!

 

Weiss felt a chill run down his spine.

 

–I’m stuck …… in a tight spot!

 

No matter what I do, there is no way out of this predicament……!

 

“Oh, dear? You don’t look so good, do you? I’m sure you’ll be able to find a way out of this predicament. You’re not going to tell me everything you’ve done so far is a bluff, are you?”

 

The leader looked at the boy’s face, which was becoming tinged with despair, and teased him.

 

But in the next moment, he is back with the biggest smile on his face.

 

“Hoo ……! If you insist that much, let me show you ……!”

 

……BANG!

 

The boy raises his right hand, which had been shoved into his pocket, high in the air.

 

And then

 

……Snap!

 

and snapped his fingers.

 

The moment the dry sound of the forest at night echoed through the air.

 

…… bong!

 

An explosive flame erupted from his fingertip.

 

“What the ……hiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!?!?”

 

The impact was so great that the thieves surrounding him fell to the ground in a flurry, as if they were blossoming.

 

“What, what, what was that ……?

 

Just by snapping my fingers, flames came out! It was so big that ithey were scared. ……!

 

The leader didn’t fall over, but his legs were shaking. Now that was ‘no chanting’……!

 

“You know very well. It would be a shame to leave you as the leader of the kidnappers,” Weiss said.

 

“Fast Chanting” only speeds up the chanting, but the chanting itself must be done. But with ‘no chanting,’ one can perform magic just by thinking about it. ……

 

The thieves were in an uproar.

 

“No way! How can there be such a power?

 

“The head knew it too! And he did it right in front of us!”

 

“You can use magic just by thinking about it, you’re a human weapon!”

 

“Yes,” Weiss said.

 

“I’m still a work in progress. I can’t control my power very well. I couldn’t use offensive magic because it might cause Leopin and the teacher to get hurt.”

 

But,” he said, stepping forward.

 

Now I can test my strength to the fullest ……! There are so many guinea pigs who are willing to be extinguished,……!

 

“Hi-…… hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!”

 

The leader finally sits up and his minions embrace each other and begin to get scared.

 

They saw the face of the devil in the smiling boy and begged him for their lives. 

 

“Please forgive me for my rudeness!”

 

“Oh, …… ah, we were forced to obey the head!”

 

“Please, please, please! If this is the man you want, you can roast him all you want!”

 

“You bastards! You betrayed us!”

 

“A man like you has never been loyal to me!”

 

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m only with you because you’re good for money!”

 

“I was only with you because you made me money! I will follow Master Weiss for the rest of my life!”

 

Weiss looked down at the thieves, who had grown quiet as snatched cats, and sniffed. 

 

When push comes to shove, they will sell their friends out of self-satisfaction ……. 

 

“You people aren’t worth the time it takes to extinguish them. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to let you off the hook. You will pay for your crimes.”

 

“Oh, ……, no! If we atone for our crimes, we will definitely be given the maximum sentence!”

 

“Don’t bother me too much.. If you don’t like it, go to …….”

 

Weiss snapped his fingers under the thieves’ noses and seared them.

 

“I can use my magic to send you straight to hell and let the devil judge you, you know?”

 

‘Hi-…… hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Tsk…… sin, I’ll atone for it, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

 

The wild thieves began to tie each other up as they fought to get ahead of each other.

 

Seeing this, Weiss was relieved beyond words.
