Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong

Chapter 145 Stealing Session Again. Part-2.

"So this is it… As expected, it's quite hidden…"After hours of

What appeared was a small underground town. He could see children playing on the streets and adults going on with their work.

The place that the lift opened was located on much higher ground, and the underground village is located on much lower ground than this place.

A small staircase leads down from this cliff to the entrance of the village, where a frail old man is sitting on a chair as a guard.

Jareth glanced up and figured out that this place is a naturally formed cave.

'In the game, it's told that this place used to be a mine a hundred years ago, but it was abandoned for some reason…'

That nearly broken lift was also installed a hundred years ago, and due to the lack of maintenance, it's in bad shape now.

Jareth walked downstairs and slowly made his way to the entrance of the underground village.

The old man sitting at the entrance as a guard suddenly noticed Jareth and said,

"Ensha? You're back so early? Didn't you say you have something important to do outside and won't return for a while?"

Hearing that question, Jareth suddenly remembered that the name of the key NPC that gives you the quest for this area was 'Ensha'; that woman is the strongest and most talented mage in this hidden village.

Even without the help of any teachers, she was able to reach grade 5 just by reading some books and past records.

This shows that she's quite talented.

The original Jareth had the resources of the 'Great Ivan's higher Arcane University', but he wasn't even a proper grade-5 mage after all those years of training.

When Jareth didn't reply for a while and was lost in thought, the old man frowned a bit and asked again.

"Ensha? What happened?"

Jareth used his mana detection and noticed that the old man is blind and can't see; moreover, his one leg is missing too, which means he's disabled.

'Sigh, a war veteran who sacrificed so much for the sake of his city… got reduced to this state… Life sure is strange…'

Jareth shook his head and said,

"I am not Ensha; I am Jareth Ayad, a humble mage…"

The old man hadn't been to the outside world for years, so he didn't know about Jareth's reputation.

But he was surprised to hear the voice of an unfamiliar person.

"Eh? This place is quite hidden; how did you find this place? Uh… we are just poor village folk; I don't think there's anything interesting here to attract a mage like you here…"

Jareth just nodded his head at those words and replied in a calm voice.

"It's not that I came here to find you people in your village… I accidentally noticed the existence of an illusion barrier and came over due to curiosity…"

"Don't mind me, I will just wander around for a while and leave…"

Although the old man has regressed in strength and has become immobile, he once used to be a grade-4 warrior, and thus he still has the ability to detect the aura of others.

He frowned a bit after he wasn't able to see through Jareth's aura, and a solemn look appeared on his face.

'I can't even feel a single mana fluctuation from him… This guy is… ridiculously strong… oh god! Where did such a monster come from in our small village!?…'

The old man dared not be rude to Jareth, and he immediately waved his hand and said,

"Haha, no need to be humble; although we don't have much to offer, I sincerely welcome you to our village…"

Although the old man was saying that with a smile, his heart was already filled with fear and anxiousness.

'I need to send a message to Ensha fast; only she has been to the outside world in recent times, she might know more about this person…'

Jareth didn't stop the old man from secretly using that low-grade artifact to send a distress signal to Ensha.

If he wanted, he could just block that signal with his mana, but he didn't do that as there was no need for that.

He didn't come here to mess with this village; he will just do his work and leave on his own. There's no need to create an unnecessary conflict.

With that thought in his mind,.

Jareth entered the village with his arms behind his back and the usual cold expression on his face.
