I Became a Flashing Genius at the Magic Academy [158-362][English Translation]

Episode 230 Chapter 48: Start Of School(4)

Start Of School (4)

As you travel south along the great river that traverses the Hawol Plains, you will come across the villages of the Black Cat Tribe and the Yua Tribe.

Historically, conflicts have often arisen between the frog-like Yua Tribe and the Black Cat Tribe over territorial disputes. Consequently, the two tribes have always had a hostile relationship. However, the explorer 'Kyla' knows a tremendous secret about the relationship between these two tribes.
(TL: I have been using Kyra as her name since the beginning but I guess it better translates to Kyla, lets keep that from now on)

That is:

"Kyaah, this is the taste!"

Mixing musk coffee grown by the Black Cat Tribe with black drops brewed by the Yua Tribe creates an incredibly delightful vodka.

"Goodness, what an unusual human."

"Is that tasty?"

The residents of the Black Cat Tribe clicked their tongues as they watched Kyla drinking musk drop liquor on the ground from noon.

"Ah, it's a pity you don't understand this taste."

A wanderer.

Or a nomad.

Or an explorer.

Or a homeless person.

Or... a time traveler.

Though she enjoyed wandering aimlessly around the world, she had been stuck in the Karakornia Mountains for quite some time for a certain reason.

It had been decades since she last had the chance to drink foreign liquor.

Thanks to meeting special girls with unique destinies, she was able to successfully complete her 'business' in Karakornia. She then returned to the world, wandering the Hawol Plains and enjoying her usual routine of finding and drinking new alcohol.

The Hawol Plains were notably filled with various different tribes, each with their own rich drinking cultures, making it possible to taste as many different kinds of alcohol as there were tribes. Kyla loved this place for that reason.

'Hmm. It feels a bit different from the last time I was here.'

Somehow, it felt as though the cultures of the different tribes had almost merged into one. It seemed like a powerful leader had appeared to unite them all into one group, but this didn't particularly matter to her.

"As long as the alcohol tastes good!"

Returning to Hawol, Kyla roamed around, enjoying strong alcohol all night long. She mainly visited places known for their famous drinks or where they could be made.

With her bronze skin and cheerful demeanor, she would approach anyone first and make jovial jokes, making it easy for her to get along with people of different tribes. This was Kyla's unique way of getting free drinks while traveling.

So, about a week later:

"Ugh...ugh?"

That day, like any other, Kyla woke up on the street after passing out from drinking too much. She wiped the drool off her cheek and got up.

"Ugh, a hangover."

It felt like someone was pounding her skull with a hammer. As Kyla struggled to get up, she realized she was in a very unfamiliar place.

It was a place she didn't like at all.

She possessed the [Eye that Sees the Past], which always showed her 'historical events that occurred in the past' simultaneously.
