I Became a Different World Gravity Wizard
Chapter 45
45 – Gritty
It was really close.
Thanks to melting the ice with the flame magic contained in the pendant, I was able to save Chloe.
“Le, rail….”
Chloe checked me to see if I was tired from just being awake, and she immediately fell asleep.
I moderately brushed off the blood flowing from my hands and looked at the man.
“You… ….”
And a man who freezes as soon as he sees me.
Why are you doing that all of a sudden?
“Do you know who I am?”
“… ….”
The man answered my question in silence.
Damn it-!
At that time, Chloe’s ice prison slowly began to melt.
It’s a big deal.
If the ice prison disappears, the man will break the wall and escape to another place.
But for some reason the man was still glaring at Chloe, who was lying behind me, as if he had no intention of running away.
“Fire up.”
A hot fireball flew towards me with a man’s chant.
No, to be precise, towards the unconscious Chloe.
“Where.”
I quickly raised my mana and used telekinesis magic to turn the trajectory of the fireball.
Kwaguagua-!
The wall was pierced by a fireball impaled on the opposite wall, and the mansion shook violently once more.
If a person gets hit with magic of that power, it will lead to instant death rather than fatal injury.
The man really intended to kill Chloe.
The man who failed to attack kicked his tongue and then cast magic for the next attack.
It’s fast.
Quite fast casting for a normal mage.
It was similar to the speed of the Gil button I met this morning.
“Ha ha ha. Burn….”
The man must have used a lot of stamina and mana while fighting with Chloe, and used magic while panting.
Wait a minute. What did you just say about the brothel?
When I heard the chant of a familiar man, I remembered where I had heard the chant.
But my thoughts didn’t last long.
It’s because I had to block the waves of flames that rushed towards me and Chloe right now.
However, with my current magic, there is no way to stop that wave of flame.
So I quickly started looking for something to block around, and I immediately succeeded in finding a good thing.
Raising my magical power, I pulled Chloe’s ice, which had not yet completely melted, with my telekinesis magic.
Then I spread the ice wide in front of me like a barrier.
Fire-!
The waves of hot flame couldn’t pierce Chloe’s ice.
Thanks to that, Chloe and I were fortunate enough not to be roasted whole.
The man seemed to have no more magic left, and it seemed difficult to even stand.
But the man’s eyes still didn’t lose his abandon.
A variety of emotions such as anger, resentment, and sadness were contained in his eyes.
The man started casting his magic once again.
Casting was fast as expected, but I can’t let them do it any longer.
‘Light magic.’
I made my body lighter and jumped toward the man before the man’s casting was over.
“…… !”
The man stopped casting magic, probably judging that my speed was faster than the magic casting.
Then he took out a dagger from his waistband and swung it at me.
Wheek- However, dodging the physically exhausted mage’s sword was not difficult for me.
The man’s dagger cut through the air, and I restrained the man from moving.
Then I took off the mask covering the man’s face and checked his face.
“… It was you too.”
“Mr. Jinwoo. What is the identity….”
The identity of the man was Gilbert, who subdued the monsters for his younger siblings this morning.
His face is covered with a black cloth, although at first he did not know who he was.
I realized who he was after seeing his ability to freely use flame magic and the chant that did not know what kind of magic would come.
“Didn’t you say you were a porter from a foreign country? Why is Jin-woo in this mansion?”
The man looked at me with a resentful face.
But I didn’t answer.
Instead, I asked him in a cold tone.
“Why did you target Chloe? The magic just before was powerful enough to kill people.”
If a commoner kills a nobleman, he is immediately punished by death. No. Even trespassing on the mansion without permission would result in the death penalty.
His brothers will starve when he dies, so why did he choose that?

My heart fluttered at the unexpected response from him.
“Because that woman killed my brothers and sisters!”
Chloe killed her brothers?
No matter how diabolical Chloe is, he doesn’t kill people.
That’s why I couldn’t believe Gilbert’s words.
“I saw it with my own eyes! The knights of the Craftdon family who came to collect the tribute stab their younger brothers and run away!”
I couldn’t say anything.
The knights who came to receive the tribute killed Gilburton’s younger brothers.
This can never happen in modern times, but unlike nobles, common people’s lives are as light as paper.
If there was a villager who did not pay tribute, the knight could directly punish the villager who did not abide by the law.
And Gilburton’s younger brothers who failed to pay tribute were killed by bad knights.
It wouldn’t be strange at all if Gilbert lost his sanity.
However, if you asked if all of this was Chloe’s fault, she couldn’t answer hastily.
Because Chloe also acted like a lord so that those who stole the tribute would never appear again.
The knights also don’t want to do that, but it could be that they obeyed orders from their superiors.
Then they would be in pain and suffering, but as knights, they would only be guilty of carrying out the orders of their superiors.
So I can’t say for sure which of them is the most at fault.
However, the biggest victims were children who knew nothing.
Perhaps it was because he was lost in his thoughts, the strength in his hand holding down Gilburton loosened a little.
And without missing that moment, Gilburton released his restrained hand.
Gilbert took advantage of his free hand and swung his sword at me, defenseless.
“Heuk!”
Chack-! Unable to respond to the momentary attack, I cut my right shoulder.
Gilbert, who was completely freed from suppression, immediately ran toward the hole in the wall.
Fortunately, the wound wasn’t too deep, so he kept his spirits up and immediately raised his magic power.
If you use gravity magic now, you can subdue the fleeing Gilbert again.
“… ….”
But for some reason I couldn’t use my magic at Gilbert.
Because I grew up as an orphan at birth, I didn’t know the importance of family.
However, as he came to another world, he met Euler and Layla and learned the importance of family.
That’s why I couldn’t help but sympathize with Gilbert, the one and only family member who died, and couldn’t bear to use magic on him.
I was caught in my thoughts for a moment, and I blankly looked at the place where Gilburton had fled.
New fluid. New fluid.
Only the sound of Chloe’s breathing echoes in the cafeteria, where a little while ago they fought and splattered blood.
Awakened by the sound of her breathing, I approached Chloe.
And with her on my back so I could sleep more comfortably, I moved to Chloe’s bedroom.
*
Kung. Thud.
A loud noise coming from around Chloe woke her up.

My head still throbs because I haven’t fully sobered up yet.
Cloel struggled to regain her senses and immediately recalled what had happened.
Aware of the thick magic power approaching him, he sent Duke to the room with the rails.
Then, as she expected, the intruder appeared, and he himself tried to subdue the intruder using the ice prison.
But because of her drunkenness, her magic was not used well and eventually her legs gave out and she fell to the floor.
And the moment the intruder’s sword flew towards his neck, Rail appeared and blocked him.
‘What happened to the rails?’
As soon as the memory of that time came back, Chloe completely regained her senses.
And belatedly, she realized that she was currently being carried on someone’s back.
The back of the person carrying her on her back wasn’t as soft as a bed, but it was wide enough for her to lean on comfortably, and she could feel the body odor that was not unpleasant, but rather calmed her mind.
Kung. Thud.
I can still hear the loud movement outside.
Chloe ignored the noise and lifted her head slightly.
Then, what came into her eyes was the face of the rail, which was bleeding from her wounds.
Chloe’s eyes widened at the fact that it was Rail who was carrying her on her back.
“Les, rails? Are you okay?!”
“Are you awake?”
Chloe, who thought that the one carrying her on her back was either the maid or the Duke, was taken aback by her.
And seeing his large cut on her right shoulder, she looked at the rails with her worried eyes.
However, unlike Chloe, Rail didn’t react and walked to her room in silence. And for her tiring her, she briefly opened her mouth.
“You must be tired, but get some more sleep.”
Contrary to her usual stiff tone, Chloe’s face instantly turned red at her friendly voice.
Chloe tried to get off the back of the rail and walk on her own, but her body didn’t move like her heart, perhaps because she had consumed a lot of her mana.
She decided to sleep until she finally got to her room, as Rail said she couldn’t help but do.
Kung. Thud.
But she couldn’t sleep because of the loud noise she heard earlier.
After all, it’s a little embarrassing, but Chloe buried her face in the back of the rail to block out her sound.
Kung. Thud. Thud.
However, even though she somehow covered her ears, her voice continued to grow louder and louder.
Chloe raised her sunken face slightly.
There was no one in her hallway except herself and the rails.
“… ….”
And belatedly, Chloe noticed.
That the loud noise that constantly disturbs sleep is the sound of one’s chest.
