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

 Chapter 31 - Eddie vs. the Bully

"Everyone stay back. It's dangerous."

I looked around and told him, and the other kids hurriedly retreated.

A circle of students formed around Huey and me.

"Don't underestimate me...!"

It wasn't enough to just defeat this insolent boy.

If that were the case, it would be much simpler.

It would take a lot of brainpower to pretend to be Class F's power and deal with him.

"Take this!"

Huey cast a water spell.

This was the third time.

I didn't get in the way, and let him cast it as he wanted.

The water spell that appeared in Huey's palm swelled up to the size of a ball.

"Go for it!"

Huey threw a blue, squishy light blue ball with force.

It would hurt a lot if it hit him, and it would probably cause a jammed finger or bruise.

As expected of Class A, they're amazing for a kid their age.

Huey, in particular, comes from a distinguished family.

Magical talent is greatly influenced by blood.

Now.

If it was one hit, I could twist my body to dodge it.

But Huey knew that much.

Without a moment's hesitation, he fired off a second and third water magic spell, attacking me from both sides.

"How's that! My specialty water polo tactic!"

"A tactic that uses your specialty attacks to corner your opponent in a nasty way. You're amazing, Huey!"

The boys around him cheered with sparkling eyes.

Maybe they were praising him?

But I could certainly tell that he was using his head properly when fighting.

If he was up against an ordinary child, even someone not from Class F would have been at the mercy of Huey's magic.

How could I defeat such an opponent in a way that looked like Class F?

Thinking about this, I gently dodged the water polo that was approaching me.

"...? What's wrong? It didn't hit Eddie at all...?"

"Really... how?"

The children of Class F raised their voices, puzzled, but clearly delighted.

In contrast, Huey's expression clouded over.

He raised his eyebrows suspiciously and snorted.

As if trying to dispel the confusion that had begun to grow within himself.

"It's obviously just a fluke. How about this? Take that! Take that! Take that!"

"Ah... It's dangerous!"

"Eddie, run!"

The kids who were being bullied and Maisie were desperately screaming for me.

The water balls surrounded us on all sides, surging in all at once.

I let out a short breath and activated wind magic without chanting.

However, it only lasted for a short time, faster than the blink of an eye, so that no one in the room would notice.

"What...!?"

In an instant, the wind knocked all the water balls down like a barrier.

"What the... My water balls disappeared...? Wh, why...? Damn it!"

Huey was so shaken up that he couldn't think straight.

In a panic, he tried to cast water magic again like an idiot.

"You can't see yourself at all, can you?"

"What...!?"

"But..."

I pointed at Huey's face.

"You've already run out of magic, haven't you?"

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...
