118 Episode 14: Magic Courses In Anisphere
Me being sent back to the clerk's office if Navre told me a novel about the matchmaking audition with Gakun. That's what Gakun told me when he came back with me. I tilt my neck unexpectedly at Gakun, who looks at me like I'm impressed.
"Isn't that the best you can do? I squeezed my strength and I got a critical win."
"You don't have to lift me up so much, do you? Gakun was amazing."
"It's only the arm of the sword, isn't it?
Gakun says with a bitter smile. I feel a grudge at me there and just a little like giving up.
"Besides, Master Anisphere doesn't use Celestial, does he? And a stretching body? If it's an archaeological framework, I can win, but if the rules don't work, I can't."
"Can't anyone do that if they want to?
"Gark, what is that, a stretching body?
When Gakun and I were talking, Navre asked me a favor with the face that it was difficult to understand.
"Mana Blade doesn't weigh on the blade, does it? Dear Anisphere, you can stretch and shrink that and change your mind."
"... I can certainly use it that way, but not anyone can use it in action"
"Huh? Really?
"Normally, I think so...... I can still tell if you want to make it shorter, but how long can you stretch it?
Unbelievable, Charne asks me with such a look.
"I stretch it well to the point where I can clearly see it with my eyes..."
"It's crazy!
"That would be strange"
"I knew it was crazy!?"
I got stuck in the order of Charne, Navre and Gakkun. Yeah, I was...
If you ask me, I've never seen anyone use it like me. I thought it was because it hasn't been popular yet, but more people don't think it's possible...
"I wouldn't mind winning if the rules were useless..."
"Right... as long as His Royal Highness Sister Wang's physical strengthening is horrible. Considering the possibility of being distracted between weapons and being able to pack the distance at once..."
"I'm better at bows than swords, but I don't feel I can guess if His Royal Highness is my opponent"
"You guys? What do you think I am?
My cheeks get a little cramped. You don't make me a virtual enemy, at all.
Still, right? You recognize Mana Blade as a weapon to Gakuns. I use it because I think it's magic, so maybe that's where the difference in ideas comes in.
I don't think I'm particularly good because I think it's like magical aptitude to use it again.
"... Speaking of which, how does Her Royal Highness the King use the magic of physical strengthening?
"Eh."
I just noticed, and as I said, Charne looks at me with her little neck tilted. To Charne's inquiry, indeed, Navre turns his gaze to me, as he says. Speaking of which, other than Gakun, I didn't explain the engraved mark yet.
"Hmmm...... sorry. I guess it's only after I've had a little more trust to explain that. Because my physical strengthening is particularly sensitive among the technologies discovered in magic."
"Oh, you did. Sorry!
"You don't have to worry about it, I'm sure you do."
I lowered my head as Sharne panicked. Priscilla, who was organizing the materials in the office at that time, stops the work and brings me the tea she prepared for the number of people.
At first, Navre was told a novel about escorts and samurai being present for tea, but I wanted to talk to everyone face-to-face, so I got eyes spilled in the office and other restricted places.
"Thanks, Priscilla"
"No."
"... Speaking of physical enhancement, there was an interesting topic in the Ministry of Magic"
"In the Ministry of Magic?
Navre has attracted interest, he's eaten up on the subject.
"Halfis in the Ministry of Magic was at the center of the whole magic review, right?
"Was it a validation study to re-establish pure magic technology, not dictated by user skill, etc.?
This is still Halphis' main research theme. Re-establishing the magic system as pure technology, without draining the user's skill and magic power. Every day, Halfis pushes this research a little bit, even as he is pursued by the task of turning the Ministry of Magic.
Magic is something that really makes a difference between users. Because of the areas in which talent is involved, I can tell you that I have no choice. But Halfis touched one end of magic and questioned the current magic system.
I guess that originally came from an experience where Halfis wasn't good at magic. And the encounter with the magic props gave Halfis a divine enlightenment.
Speaking of magic props, it's magic that allows users to perform steadily, no matter who they are. And isn't magic purely out of the skill of the user any different than magic props? I came to think of it.
In fact, I don't think that's the wrong idea. From that idea, Halphis began to wonder if it might be possible to re-establish the magic system.
Re-establishing a magical system derived from technology from a magical perspective, not a magical system inherited from prayer and tradition that really obscures it. That's Halfis's dream.
Nothing. Even Halfis didn't deny the magic he'd ever had. The magic inherited so far has never been changed. On top of that, I want to organize it as a way to make it easier for anyone to reach a further abyss of magic. Halfis' ultimate goal at the moment is here.
"So we were testing how much magic we could simplify, and what elements of the user would make a difference in the same magic."
"Oh, I heard you got a lot of magic class content at the Aristocratic Academy. Was it that relationship?
Gakun relies on his memory for tea. I nod to affirm.
"So I was looking into it from the more frequently used magic, but physical enhancement is the more frequently used magic, right?
"Yeah, especially if you're a knight. Physical enhancement is also an initial magic, from which we learn to operate magic..."
"That's the perception, isn't it? But what if I told you I wasn't, actually?
"What?"
As Navru-kun and Gakun were surprised, Charne, who had not attended the College of Aristocracy, tilted his neck and Priscilla was drinking tea in a clear manner.
"It's Halphis' theory that physical enhancement wasn't actually magic for the first time."
"How could you draw such a conclusion?
"Because the magic of physical strengthening could not be simplified from its present form, and certain elements were involved."
"An element?
"Yeah, that's the nature of magic. Physical enhancement is greatly influenced by the magic of the user and requires magic manipulation techniques beyond simplicity. So, in fact, when I try to use it consciously, it's something very advanced."
What is physical strengthening in the first place? Even though we are improving our physical abilities, what the hell is going on with that principle?
In my case, by lowering the magic of a dragon onto my body, I can harbor the power of that dragon into my body. So the output of my physical enhancement can greatly outweigh the physical enhancement used by the concurrent wizard. If I say it, it can also be called pseudo-dragonization.
So how did physical strengthening in general magic work?
"This is Uffi's theory, though. Born in a man's soul, the Spirit is enclosed. And those who can use magic can turn spirits into magic by resonating this inner spirit with the spirits around them. But physical enhancement is magical, but that effect is something that works inside of you, right?
"Yeah, that's right"
"So say physical strengthening is slightly different from other magic, or physical strengthening is greatly influenced by its nature by its own magical aptitude. The magical essence of physical strengthening is the amplification of power by magic. But I defined it as a secondary effect of focusing more on the inner spirits than magic."
"... when you do hear that, it's not the same colour as being told it's something that magically changes a common spirit"
"Yes. The magic of physical strengthening doesn't actually exist, or you can think of it. The essence of this is to master the flow of magic in your body. But with the spirits lurking inside, it's the magic of strengthening the body that's linked to magic."
"... I mean, what's going on?
You can't come about the story anymore, Gakun is still leaning his neck with a smoky look on his face. Charne also seemed to have a question mark on his head.
It's Navre who understands the story. Is understanding not interested in the topic, or is Priscilla the mystery that just doesn't show up on her face? I laughed bitterly as I confirmed each reaction.
"Remember, physical enhancement is heavily influenced by your attributes."
"Please be more specific!
"... simply" improving physical abilities "or" strengthening with the magic of physical strengthening "means magic that never improves"
"Uh, then you can't. But then what do we do?
"This is why physical enhancement is not magic for the first time. I need to understand the nature of my magic and know which form it is in the most powerful state. Anyone who can be unconscious is still good..."
"It's hard to make logic, I mean, I can't share experiences. Is that what this is about?
I nod at Navre's answer. This is the magical troublesome thing about physical strengthening. The disadvantage of existing magic, which is that physical strengthening is difficult to establish as magic without a specific image, is that it cannot be removed.
On the contrary, it can also be described as magic that has become difficult because of the act of trying to systematize it. Until now, if I say so, it's just a coincidence and success. "So much so that it can be said that it is a single hand that separates it from something like that.
"Maybe it's easier for the sensationalists. It gets harder when you try to tell someone who uses magic with logic."
"Like I figured it out, like I didn't...?
He leans the neck he's been tilting, this time the other way around, and looks like Charne might be bothered.
"Then why don't we try it in Charne"
"Huh? It's me, is it?
"Yeah, what is Charne's best magic attribute?
"It's thunder! And then I'm good at wind... but you're better at thunder."
"Charne, was there a suitability for the subspecies attribute"
Heh, and Gakun sees Charne with a slightly envious face. Charne is said to be a subspecies of wind. Is it suitable for the attributes of thunder? It may be fresh because it was about Yufi and Lord Grants who seemed to know each other to be able to handle thunder.
"Bye, Charne. Let's start with the magic flow. Stand with your back to me."
"Yes!"
He runs up to me for a small run, and Charne turns around. I put my hands on both shoulders of Charne.
"Suck, puke, take a deep breath. From the heart, which is the starting point for magic, let your whole body circle magic before hoarding it in your stomach. Repeat this."
"Yes!
At first, from nervousness, or with a big, deep breath, Charne turns her magic all over her body. You've been concentrating, you're losing a great deal of motion, and you spin your magic as Charne takes a big, deep breath.
Yeah, I guess the image of turning magic all over your body looks okay.
"Usually I'd use the magic of physical enhancement here, wouldn't I? But first, imagine what magic would be like around your body before it happens."
"... what kind of magic, is it?
"Yes. Charne's best attribute is thunder, isn't it? So what does thunder look like?
"Eh, it sparkles, it's badass..."
"Right. So we're going to replace the magic that's going on around your body with something that's sparkling and beeping. Imagine slowly, matching my fingers, moving your magic with that image."
From shoulder to arm tip, first let Charne perform a magic flux so that he can reciprocate. Charne keeps his magic running back and forth from shoulder to fingertip without defying my instructions.
"... image..."
"The magic is down, up, down again. In the meantime, there is thunder in your body. Shoulder to fingertip, fingertip to shoulder. Thunder's going to run the bees, and we're going back."
"... doesn't that hurt?
"Make sure it doesn't hurt. The thunder is the same as you, the Spirit lurking within you. That's why I won't hurt you. That's what keeps going around your body."
Charne will follow my instructions honestly. No one speaks a word and is watching Charne.
"Charne, turn your magic all over your body as you are in your current image. From the heart to the whole body and back to the stomach..."
"From the heart... to the whole body... coming back..."
"Try using physical enhancement when you can retain that magic. Slowly and carefully conscious of the whole body."
So I take my hand off Charne's shoulder. Charne spins his magic over several deep breaths. And inadvertently, a patsy, static sound echoed around Charne.
"- Wow!"
When Charne raised her voice as she was surprised, the magic scattered all at once.
Then Charne looked back at me and looked up at me with her eyes sparkling.
"Sister Wang!
"Oh, hey, what?
"It was amazing! Here's the thing, bah, bah, bah, bah! and it was so much more awesome than usual!!"
Charne shares her thoughts with excitement with gestures and gestures. The trick was so cute, I caressed my head unexpectedly.
You noticed how excited you were about me stroking your head, and Charne completely shrunk her shoulders and made her smaller.
"If it was different, you should practice it so that you can keep that feeling next time."
"Yes, thank you! I'll do my best!"
"Eh, isn't all Charne sloppy, Dear Anisphere! Charne, how do you do it!
"Er, here, as a batchy, goofy, goofy..."
"I just don't know!!"
Gakkun is shouting with his head at Charne's explanation, which is too abstract. I couldn't help but laugh at both of them.
