A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard

001. Kidnapping is kidnapping, but this is true…

The spirit of war has come. The time when the world was swallowed up.

Endymion was a porter who made a living by procuring supplies.

Although he may say that he was treated condescendingly by others and the salary was too low, he had his own goal.

Until the battlefield is turned upside down by a monster’s magic.

* * *

“Looks like you’re awake now.”

A clear voice, that of a woman.

At the bewildering voice he had never heard in his life, Endymion opened his hazy eyes.

“…Who are you?”

“Me? My name is Selene. I’m the wizard of the tower.”

“If you are a tower wizard…”

Soon after pondering her words, Endymion’s eyes widened. That would be the case, because the top of wizards is called the wizard of the tower.

‘I’ve never heard of the name Selene.’

Anyway, what does a worm porter know so much? No matter how bright he is in the world, he won’t know all the wizards in the tower.

All tower wizards are veiled beings. This is because it stays in the other world where the tower, which is its domain, is located, and appears in the present world only when necessary.

“Hmm… What are you thinking about that makes your eyes move around like that?”

Selene was smiling meaningfully as she leaned against the wall.

“You really want to run away? I don’t mind, but will you?”

“Are you able to get out on your own?”

“No.”

Then why the hell did she ask?

Endymion struggled to swallow the words that lingered in her mouth. Right now, the woman in front of me holds the right to live and die.

“Can I ask you a question?”

“You can do it.”

“Why did you bring me here without killing me?”

At her words, Selene tilted her head.

“I should say it right. I tried to kill everyone on the battlefield, including you. But you were the only one who survived.”

“So, it’s not that I didn’t kill you, it’s that you didn’t die.”

“Are you convinced now?”

“…Yes.”

It was a lie. No matter how absurd it sounds, it has already happened anyway. Endymion gave a rough answer to the nonsense and spoke again.

“Then you can kill me this time.”

“Why me?”

“…….”

“I don’t know why, but it seems like it’s trying to die…”

It was unusual to see him approaching with strides. The tower wizard Selene instantly closed the distance between her and she whispered a request to Endymion’s face.

“…Recognize that you cannot die any longer until I give you my permission. You are as alive as you are, but your heart stops on that battlefield and has nothing to do with me.”

“What is that…”

Sweet breath sweeps the skin dizzyingly. I already knew it was beautiful, but seeing it up close like this made it even prettier.

Anyway, it was a novel bullsh*t after all. However, the logic of the law of the jungle, like the basic premise of this world, made that nonsense possible.

Thanks to that, Endymion was speechless. He opened his mouth a few times, but that was it. In the end, it was only his situation that he couldn’t resist properly.

‘Because I have no strength.’

A situation where only sighs come out. Seeing him like that, Selene pretended to be cute.

“Looks like you have something to say to the muttering? What did you mean? Try it.”

“There is no such thing.”

“Hmm… That’s not fun. Then you’ll wake up now.”

“Yes?”

“I will be living here from now on, so I need to know a rough idea of what it is.”

At her words, Endymion blinked blankly.

* * *

The footsteps of the two resonate in the quiet corridor. Is it because I can’t feel the warmth? It also made me feel sad.

Endymion thought as he looked sideways at Selene, who was walking alongside her.

‘This must be the Wizard’s Tower, right?’

A tower is not standardized in the way everyone thinks it is. From ancient times, they are only called tower wizards, and their towers can become luxurious mansions… It could even be a run down shack.

What matters is where it is located, meaning that appearance has nothing to do with it.

‘The wizard of the tower always resides in his tower. If so, this will be this woman’s tower.’

Having roughly grasped the location of her abduction, Endymion realized that the situation was quite embarrassing.

‘Does this mean that if you can run away, run away?’

You said you were full of confidence that you wouldn’t be able to achieve what you wanted anyway. If this was the tower of Selene, it would have been an understandable attitude.

‘For now, I have no choice but to pretend to obey and wait for an opportunity.’

That’s how Endymion decided what form she would take.

“This is the study. It’s a place I usually stop by.”

Starting with the library full of the smell of books.

“This is the laboratory, the place to go if you want to try magic.”

A laboratory where you can feel refreshed somewhere.

“This is a dining hall. Just come here on time for breakfast, lunch and dinner.”

Even the dining room with a huge dining table that feels different from being used alone.

The number of rooms that actually exist in the mansion is far greater than this, but Selene added that it was mostly empty and less introduced because it was a warehouse.

“Do you have any questions?”

Endymion, who was about to shake her head, opened his mouth at a sudden thought.

“Where can I live?”

“The room you first woke up in is the room you will use from today.”

It was a very luxurious room, but since Endymion lived in an unexpected luxury, I thought that she had everything.

“But what can I do?”

“I don’t think I remember telling you to do the work?”

“…….”

That’s true… Endymion’s heart was not like that.

“Then you brought me here to put me as an ornament? That too…”

“Right?”

“…….”

“Huh, okay, okay. I won’t joke around anymore. In fact, I had something to entrust you with. The only thing that was unexpected was that he wanted to do the job without saying it. It’s also admirable.”

Endymion suddenly asked a question at the praise that came out as if she were treating a child.

“Are you old…?”

“…I don’t ask about a woman’s age, but she’s very ignorant.”

Contrary to its appearance, it seems that it has eaten enough to eat, and the reaction is intense. Endymion vaguely guessed that she would be in the top row, and she murmured in agreement.

“What is that gesture of consent…?”

“I didn’t think anything of it.”

“…….”

It was a sign of disbelief, but what can I do? No matter how great a tower wizard is, mind reading is impossible. Endymion did not make trivial excuses in his face.

‘I’ll understand.’

She was still Selene, who looked uncomfortable, but she seemed to be trying hard to keep her embarrassment away, as if she still had something to say.

“From now on, you just have to stand by me and help me with my work.”

“If it’s work… What are you talking about?”

“I’m a mage, so of course the work I do must also be related to magic. I won’t make you do anything too difficult or unreasonable, so don’t be afraid.”

In the first place, it didn’t look like he would be scared, but Endymion nodded at the voice that he would manage it reasonably.

* * *

It was a bright day. With the unfamiliar morning air, Endymion slowly opened his eyelids. His green blue eyes contained an unfamiliar ceiling.

‘Come to think of it… I was kidnapped.’

It was only yesterday. Even this moment that had just happened, even though I dismissed it as a dream, the memory of that time was vivid. In the end, realizing that it was all real, he raises his body.

‘… Should I have breakfast?’

As I was leaning against the back of the bed without any energy, I thought about breakfast. It’s because he remembered Selene’s words that he can only eat when he comes on time.

‘Let’s filter.’

It was a quick conclusion after much thought. For him, who was a busy porter who lived day by day anyway, it was impossible to eat all three meals a day.

‘I’ve been starving for several days, but it’s only about one meal…’ .’

It was a time when I was staring into the void, not paying attention to the schedule of breakfast.

Kiki-

The sound of hinges turning, wondering what was going on, Endymion turned his head and soon put on a bewildered expression.

“Selene-sama…?”

“You’re a late sleeper. Get ready and think about breakfast.”

Selene, who looked so tidy that she couldn’t tell when it happened, looked at his condition and said,

‘Why did you come here?’

No matter how bright the day is, it must be early. Endymion, who pondered the purpose of Selene’s sudden visit, soon came up with an answer.

‘Are you trying to get me to work?’

It seemed like an extremely reasonable idea. Endymion considered this to be the right answer, and although the primary question was resolved, one additional question still remained, so he had no choice but to open his mouth.

“Is it okay if I don’t eat breakfast?”

“I’m not okay, so do as I say.”

“…….”

I had a lot to say, but I didn’t say it. Because the boss told me to, but I have to, because there is no other way. In the end, while Selene left for a while to change his clothes, Endymion was ready.

Kiki-

“Are you here? Let’s go.”

She smiled and nodded to let’s go quickly, probably because she was excited about breakfast.

Dalgrak- Dalgrak-

The melody created by the clashing of tableware, and the smell of fragrant bread fills the restaurant where you start your meal.

Mmm Endymion seemed unfamiliar with the breakfast he hadn’t had in a while, more than anything else, he only took a little bit of bread and put it into his mouth.

‘Where did all this food come from?’

It wasn’t much of a big deal. There are just too many good options for breakfast.

For example, bread, soup that goes down your throat, salad, etc….

‘Is there a cook?’

“Does it not suit your taste?”

While she was curious about the process of making food for a while, Selene, who was making music with tableware alone, asked a question.

At that, Endymion took her eyes off the bread I had eaten off of her flesh over and over again and turned to her, but Selene had a rather serious expression.

Endymion swallowed the bread in her mouth and answered.

“No.”

There was no problem with the food itself. It looks delicious and smells fragrant.

It’s just that I wasn’t used to the unfamiliar breakfast.

“Really? That’s good.”

I was worried in my heart, but maybe it was because the answer “No” Didn’t seem empty. Selene showed off a soft smile that was even feminine now.

“That’s what I made.”

“Kek- kek kek!”

“…….”

At the unexpected remark, Endymion cleared his throat. Selene’s expression hardens in real time, unaware of her dream.
