A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard

030. The gambler

-Can I help you? So you can escape

Like a ghost, Endymion hesitated to reply to the words of the existence that whispered in his ear despite being invisible.

‘What is it?’

-… ….

I asked silently without saying it out of my mouth, but there was no answer. Thanks to this, Endymion learned that she did not have the ability to see into her head.

‘Then… ‘

Endymion waited for Selene to leave. Looking at her with her sneaky side glance, she was suspicious of something, but her feet were heading toward her door as if she were about to leave.

“…Am I mistaken?”

Muttering incomprehensible. However, after hearing her unknown voice, Endymion wondered if the reason why she suddenly came in was because of the owner of this voice, and she had a reasonable doubt.

‘Anyone with quite the skill.’

Otherwise, you won’t be able to avoid Selene’s sensitive senses. Should it be because of that… Endymion became even more curious about the identity of her voice.

Tack-

Selene left her room without a word. Before she left, she looked around the room with longing eyes, and at the end she gave Endymion a look, but it was a very painful look.

‘Did they say there was work left?’

She said she had to be in the lab because she couldn’t do anything here.

No matter how much love was in full bloom, Selene could not neglect her duties and left Endymion in tears.

So, while Endymion was alone in the car, the circumstances of the incident were that Selene stopped what she was doing and followed her.

She was able to recognize, even with her eyes, the painful state of her heart that she had to go back to.

‘Anyway… ‘

Endymion decided to focus on her voice now that she was out too.

“…Who are you?”

If the voice is still here, it will answer you. And his predictions were correct.

-I am a scholar who seeks the truth similar to the one who just opened that door.

“…A scholar?”

Yes, Selene can also be called a scholar. She is a wizard and scholar. So, Endymion could only guess that the owner of the voice she heard now was also the same.

“The word “Help” Earlier… What does it mean to help?”

– Literally. The reason why you can’t escape this place is probably because it’s the only space for the woman who just entered this room.

-Originally, getting involved in her space is very difficult. Some people won’t even be able to come up with it. But i can

The owner of the voice proudly declares in a tone full of confidence. And add.

-Don’t ask why. You probably don’t even want to know that anyway.

He’s a strange guy in many ways, and Endymion came to mind. Of course, to come out of nowhere and make such a dubious proposal… Does he think he’ll accept it?

“What is the price?”

Everything has a price. Endymion asked insinuatingly as if he were looking at his liver.

-A price? There is no such thing. Only to get you out

With this, Endymion could be sure.

This guy is not an unusually suspicious guy.

‘There is no kindness in this world without a price.’

To begin with, it would be ridiculous to call it a favor. That must be a ruse. It is nonsense to have a favor to do when you have only met each other for less than an hour.

-What do you want to do?

The owner of the voice asked so confidently. He didn’t seem to show off whether he considered himself to be an obvious superior.

‘Gap… It’s not wrong.’

If it had been as I suggested, and if Endymion had only entered the category of an ordinary human… He might have snapped at the suggestion of the voice.

‘If that was the case in the first place, I wouldn’t even be here.’

Fate is ironic. Sometimes it presents these unexpected options.

‘Originally, it’s customary to twist his neck when he makes a proposal like that… ‘

I was a little curious. How do you get it to escape? What benefits do authors gain from this?

And if at all possible, the author’s words aren’t false, and he manages to escape….

‘… Is it now?’

There are several times in life when you have to risk your life to gamble. It was a very, very rare case, but he thought that if the gains gained were worth it, it was worth risking his life.

“…What is the plan?”

-I have to untie that line…

The voice explained intricately, blah blah. However, Endymion did not understand the explanation and it was annoying to hear, so he chose to solve it on his own.

“Resolved.”

Endymion released the restraints so easily. It wasn’t because he couldn’t loosen the restraints that hadn’t been magically treated in the first place.

I always waited.

-… This is unexpected.

A puzzled voice passes by my ears. Apparently, he understood the situation in the way that Endymion was being held captive.

The owner of the voice, now realizing that that was not the case, spoke out again after a moment of silence.

-Then… I have to leave this room now. To be precise, I have to leave this mansion.

“It’s difficult…”

Endymion murmured softly. I could see in his eyes that he was looking for a thousand ways to escape.

‘Escape from the mansion… It’s difficult.’

Haven’t you already been caught by Selene while trying to open the front door? Only then did I pass Yuyamuya… It was possible because it was the first time.

Moreover, Selene now thinks that Endymion is still tied to the chair. So, if Endymion leaves this room, it means that even he is worthy of Selene’s vigilance.

‘It sounds like you have to go back.’

The front door is locked unless you want to leave. Needless to say, Selene came out the moment I opened the door.

Therefore, they said they had to find another escape route, but Endymion’s eyes were focused on the seat by the window where the curtains were drawn.

‘Maybe?’

Is it possible over there?

The worry was short and the execution was quick. Maybe even trying to open a window could alert Selene. However, Endymion could have thought of it in its own way.

‘Very little… I can relax.’

Uncomfort builds up around the heart. It was like forcing a muscle that hadn’t been used for a long time to work. An act of stretching to loosen a stiff body.

Then, soon after, the discomfort went away, and a sense of exhilaration surged through, so Endymion focused his mind and let only a very small amount of energy flow into his eyes.

Then, the blue eyes suddenly flared up. Like the eyes of a white mountain soldier wandering around Yeongsan at night, I feel the power to dig up and freeze everything in front of me.

‘As expected.’

No magic treatment has been done.

It was just an ordinary window. When I opened the door just in case, it was locked as expected, but it was not a job to unlock the lock, so he opened the window easily.

‘Last time I saw it and felt it… I didn’t even protect the window.’

Hey, maybe you didn’t feel the need to. The front door is too ordinary, so even if that’s the case, since it’s a mansion in the palm of your hand, the defenses seem to be that loose.

‘So don’t get caught.’

Endymion glanced back. Eyes and gazes wandering in the air meet. Fortunately, she didn’t seem to be being watched by Selene, as she didn’t feel any connection.

‘This is something that can be rectified even if caught… It’s hard to do more than this.’

So, at this point, that eye must also be neutralized.

‘I was worried.’

If I had to escape, the most stumbling block would be those watchful eyes, but I was constantly puzzled over how to get rid of them.

‘And I found a way.’

I’ve never used it for such a purpose, but it still seems highly likely to be executed.

It was to show illusions to those eyes and disturb them.

‘With a very small amount of power, the illusion won’t take too long.’

So you have to be careful and quick. It’s only a matter of time before Selene notices once the illusion has been cast.

Endymion’s capture was only a brief trick. Of course, if he made up his mind and used it, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to stake an illusion that never ended….

‘Then Selene will notice this.’

Selene is not an idiot, and she can’t just stare at the loaches, who openly unleash their energy in her realm.

Moreover, it would be even more so if she was the object she had tied to her chair saying she loved her.

‘In the end, reaching the boundary as the voice said with the least amount of force.’

That was what Endymion planned.

Carelessly casts illusions on the eyes. Then, as if his eyes were possessed by something, his pupils blurred, and he returned to the chair where Endymion was sitting.

Perhaps, from the visual point of view, Endymion would still be seen sitting in that chair.

In this gap, Endymion stepped on his window frame.

-How are you going to get out?

The voice asks curiously. That would be the case, because the floor he was on was quite high even though he was on the third floor, and it was a very dangerous height to jump down.

“Just.”

Endymion showed through actions rather than words. Without hesitation, he grabs both windows and throws himself outside.

-Crazy….

The voice was frightened. Of course, it wouldn’t matter if a person with unique abilities like himself did such a risky thing, but it wasn’t Endymion.

As the owner of the voice feels, Endymion is just one of the infinitely weak humans.

This was a misunderstanding caused by the owner of the voice not being able to capture Endymion’s actions as he let go of his energy.

But that misunderstanding disappeared the moment Endymion threw himself through the window.

Puck-!

The sound of being hit on the floor without pulse echoed through the ground. Fortunately, he wasn’t that heavy, so the sound wasn’t too loud.

Thanks to that, Selene didn’t notice it yet, so her mansion was quiet.

-… Hey, are you alive?

The owner of the voice looked at Endymion, who had fallen from his head as if it were stuck to the ground, and asked cautiously.

No matter how strong your body is, it’s only natural that it would be dangerous if you fell head first. But since that weirdo stuck his head straight into the ground, I can’t help but wonder if he’s dead.

-It’s a bit difficult if you’re really dead…

The situation just before the judgment of almost instant death. The owner of the voice didn’t even expect it, but suddenly, when he heard a clicking sound, a strange sight came into his eyes.

-That’s… What….
