Chapter 64: 63 - 開く It's not の to open, it's 解く to untie.

Today's results: one win and one loss.

It's not a very good record for a mission that requires a series of victories, but considering my previous series of defeats, it's strange to think that I'm doing pretty well.

Anyway, I went to Prof. Tia of Blaine's office to report the results and to discuss the future direction. I still don't know if I should have relied on him, but he is a teacher and should be familiar with the routes that students can't take.

We arrived at an old mansion standing alone in the woods. It's still hard to get to, far away, and troublesome as ever.

Hmm?　The shadow of a person is right next to the building.

I peeked over and saw a silver-haired ponytail dancing in the air.

"Iris, what are you doing?"

"Hurt. As you can see, I was training in magic."

To me it looked like an exercise in punching the enemy in the face. ...... I guess it's a check for self-enhancement magic or something like that.

"Just right. If you've got time, you can talk to me about it. ............ No, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you didn't like it that much."

I made a face that was overtly unpleasant. Feeling a little guilty, I walk up to Iris.

"I don't know much about magic, do I?"

Iris, who is at the top of the writing class, should know better.

"You have an extremely low level of magic, yet you can do more than I can. If you have a knack for it, please teach me.

There is no such thing!　But in my case, my warding magic is just too special.

I'll just watch and see what you do."

I'm not sure what will come of it, but in the meantime, let's see if we can come up with some sound advice.

Iris has self-enhanced and is now doing some kind of shadow karate.

His moves are fluid. Not a single movement is wasted. I'm not actually sure what I'm talking about. But I think it's beautiful.

On the other hand, I'm sure I can handle it.

I guess it's a harsh reality for her who wants to be strong.

Well, what should I do?

I can't just stand there staring at it.

I stick a on my eyeball and observe. But it doesn't have any function other than to know the magic level and the attribute.

She has all attributes, but her current magic level is only [5] against the maximum magic level of [35]. She is not at the level to be able to attend this academy.

And her magic level has not been raised from [5], and she is in what is generally called .

Why does such a phenomenon happen?

I think Prof. Tia said that ancient magic might be able to "open" again even if modern magic can't, but it's impossible if we don't know the cause of the problem in the first place.

Cause ...... cause.

--I'm sorry...

I heard a strange noise. I feel a sharp pain in the back of my head. What is it ......?　Something seems to be growing dimly out of Iris's back. .............

"Hurt, how did it go?　Any advice - I mean, what's wrong with you?　You're sweating terribly."

"What?"

I'm not sure I'm sweating. I put my hand on my forehead.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for making you work so hard when you're not feeling well. You can rest inside the research building."

Iris bowed her head, but nothing came out of her back.

"Iris, I need you to stand there and close your eyes.

"Hm?　Um, ...... are you okay?"

"Yeah, don't worry. I just want to check something."

Yes, you're more serious than ever. Okay, like this?

Iris stood relaxed and quietly closed her eyes.

"I want you to focus on your inner self. Hold it there for a moment."

This is just stalling. It doesn't mean anything.

I went behind her and stared at her back. Whee....

My brain aches. But I kept looking. I was getting excited.

And what was that?

What had been dim earlier became clearly and distinctly visible.

It's a pipe.

Numerous tubes, which look like thin clay pipes, are growing out of Iris's back. There were exactly thirty-five of them, and only five of them were connected to the ground.

Thirty-five and five.

I'm sure of it now. These tubes represent the level of magic, and the one connected to the ground is the current magic level.

And now I somehow understand why Iris's magic level is not going up.

Out of the 30 broken tubes, one is longer than the others. But it was entangled like a vine with the five trees connected to the ground.

Maybe so long that it would stick in the ground if it was straightened out.

I tried to touch it.

It slips through and you can't touch it. Maybe, but not in this space-time.

"Hurt?　How long do you think this should go on for?"

More. Concentrate more deeply inside."

"Uh-huh."

I can't touch it with my hand. Then, I tried to cover the entangled tubes with wards.

Success. But my head hurts like a splinter.

I can't stop now.

I carefully untangle the tangled tubes like vines, and Iris's body jumps. That's when the tip of the tube sticks to the ground.

Seventeen of the tubes begin to grow, and they stick into the ground.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Iris exclaimed loudly.

Oh my God, did I do something wrong?

Iris was sweating profusely when I held her. It's like I sprayed water on him. You're not wearing any underwear! You can see the tip through it.　No, no!

"Hey, you okay?"

I know it's not okay to look at, but that's all I could say.

And then...

"Yeah, it's a magical outburst. It happens sometimes when you use magic beyond its limits, but right now it didn't look like that. Mr. Hurt, what did you do?"

Professor Tia, who had appeared out of nowhere (or rather had been hiding and watching us from a while ago), flew in to check on Iris.

"I'm calm, so I'll just ask you a question, is Iris alright?

"The symptoms are mild. Iris, you're conscious, aren't you?

"Oh, yeah. I was just surprised to see you out of the blue. ....... But this is ......, I don't think--"

Right after me and Professor Tia tilted our heads,

"The magic level has been raised. ......"

Iris assured me this, not in a questioning way.

Well, is it possible to feel the magic level when it goes up? I've been at max level since the beginning, so I've never experienced it.

But you're right. His magic level is now 23. It matches the number of tubes connected to the ground.

Iris opens her eyes, looks at me in disbelief, and asks a question in a trembling voice.

"Did Hurt do this ......?"

"No, no, Iris. No, no, no, Iris. You overcame yourself.

I say something like that and cover it up. But...

"But still, because you ...... advised me to ...... because Hurt advised me to ......."

Tears stream down my face. But then..,

"Thank you!　Thank you so much, Hurt!"

He hugged me out of the blue?　You're so tight and powerful.

I can't pull away from the sobbing Iris, and my back is smacked.

Look to the side. A little lower. There,

A little boy with a smirk on his face told me this with a glint in his eye behind his glasses.
