6-year-old Wise Man Wants to Walk in the Shade

 Epilogue: The beginning of a new life

"What?! You're saying... you're out of magic...?!"

Huey was clearly becoming upset.

To tell the truth, I had activated a detection spell as soon as the battle began to confirm Huey's decreasing magical power.

The magical power displayed above his head was now 0.

Of course.

No matter how you look at it, a child's magical power would run out in no time if he kept firing it like that.

Magical power increases according to level.

No matter how noble Huey was from a prestigious family and had a talent for magic, there's only so much a six-year-old child can reach.

I know that from personal experience.

This was what I was aiming for from the beginning.

"You can't use magic anymore?"

"Damn it."

"What? You said that people who can't use magic have no value. Maybe you just..."

The color drained from Huey's face.

He stared at me with wide eyes as if he had seen something terrifying.

Just at that moment, the bell rang.

"Why don't you go back to class? There's nothing you can do now."

"Damn it! Remember that...!"

"Whoa, hold on, Huey!"

Just like the howling of a loser.

Huey and his entourage ran towards class A.

I guess that settles the matter for now.

Now, I'm heading to class.

"Wow...amazing!"

"Really, it's amazing!"

"You chased away that bully in such a cool way!"

"Wow!"

The students from class F crowded around me.

Maisie and others started talking to me one after another.

"Eddie, are you an all-around athlete? You easily dodged the magic ball!"

Damn it.

I thought it was okay because I wasn't going to shoot back, but dodging magic is probably impossible for a normal kid.

"Um...well...I always do that kind of training at home!"

"Amazing! I chased away that bully too."

"Not amazing. He just killed himself."

"But you weren't scared at all, were you?"

"What?! N-no, not like that. I was really scared!"

I tried desperately to argue while laughing.

Even though it was a rather forced way of deceiving him, the children were as expected very honest.

They believed him easily.

"Um... Eddie. You were scared, but you protected me. Thank you so much."

The timid boy who was being bullied stepped forward.

"Eddie, you're smaller than me, but you're amazing."

I wonder if I'm really that small.

Huey pointed that out too.

I'm starting to get a bit worried.

But he's still growing, so it should be fine.

"Thank you."

I was surprised when the boy took my hand.

"I was scared when he bullied me, but I'm glad I had a friend like you..."

"Um... so, friends?"

I was taken aback by his unexpected words.

"Oh, sorry. Did you dislike it?"

"No, I was just surprised."

"Then will we be friends?"

"...Uh, yeah."

"I'll help you when you're in trouble too. Thank you so much!"

"I'd like to be your friend too."

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

Maisie and the other kids volunteered one after another.

Not knowing how to respond, I just smiled back awkwardly.

But friends.

I finally had the friends I'd longed for in my previous life.

What is this fluffy feeling?

"Oh, it's the bell for the real bell! Eddie, let's go!"

Saying this, the boy held out his hand.

I was a little confused, but I shook his hand back.

We entered the classroom together with our classmates, making a lot of noise.

That's right. I'll have to get everyone's names later.

And so, my slightly turbulent school life began.

TL Note: This concludes the main story!

Thank you for reading this far! *.(๓´͈ ˘ `͈๓).*

6-year-old Wise Man Wants to Walk in the Shade: Chapter 1- The Strongest Sage, Reincarnated

  A roaring sound like the sound of the earth echoes in a building called the Temple of Darkness. Stacked in the corner of the temple are the skeletons of those who have challenged "that" and died. A blow of the Demon King that blows away the old skeleton rolled up dust and shook the stone temple. The countless swords released by the Demon King pierced the wise man's body one after another, spewing red droplets. "Sage. I'll praise you for hunting me down so far ... but ..." The final blow is about to be fired at the wise man who slowly raised his face. "Your life ends here !!" Blood running down the chin. The wise man's body is full of wounds, perhaps because he has no room to apply healing magic. There is no recovery person who can fix it. All those who have arrived here have formed a clique and cooperated at the party without exception. But there was only one wise man. The man who had outstanding magical power and was feared to be the stronge...

6-year-old Wise Man Wants to Walk in the Shade: Chapter 2 - Status numbers are too abnormal

  A forest that spreads around the mansion. Just wearing a gown on my pajamas, I arrived at the entrance and immediately found a suitable monster. An object that is bouncing with a transparent body. A red slime, a weak monster that is ideal for toddlers' debut battles. Even if you can't expect experience points, it's a good idea to beat it with a 6-year-old body. When I was thinking about that, the red slime jumped at me. I jumped to the right and avoid it well. Because of the knowledge I gained in my previous life. I know the characteristics of red slime. The only attacks used but it is ramming and low heat magic and its weakness is the core in the middle of the body. If you stab a sharp weapon from above and pierce the nucleus, it will pop off in one shot. There are two types of magic that can be learned from red slime: fire magic and detection magic. The learning probability is high. It's awkward to shoot fire magic, so I'll launch an attack from here. I threw th...

6-year-old Wise Man Wants to Walk in the Shade: Chapter 11 - Talk to the King

  A few days after the admission briefing. I managed to get through the aptitude diagnosis, and I was looking forward to the start of school and spending my days leisurely. The day when I fluttered as a demon king and a wise man seems to be a distant dream. However, as expected, the peaceful days did not last so long. It all started with rumours that "suspicious people who came to the city are looking for wise men." It was the mayor of a neighbouring town who brought the rumour to my house. "Although I hide my identity with a robe, it seems that I'm wearing a sword ... There is a story that a glimpse of the sword had the coat of arms of Mayley." "Mayley's country ... I see ..." "They are listening to the people in the city.'Did you see a big disaster or a person using great magical power around here?'" The mayor said so and turned his confused face to his father, the lord. My father nodded silently, but I can almost imagine what h...
