''I'm glad to hear that. Now all we have to do is just try to keep moving the magic around.
It's going to be a slow and steady process.
I understand ...... how long do I have to do this?
Until I can move the magic all over my body.
Whole body? It doesn't move that much, does it?
It's okay. If you do it again and again, you'll get it right the first time.
At first, everyone is like that .
I see. ...... I'll try my best.
Two weeks later
'Leo-kun, I'm able to move my magic power all over my body!
Are you sure? Then let's move on to the next step.
What do you want me to do next?
Next time, pour your magic into this magical stone.
Then he gave Elsie the magic stone.
It's an empty magic stone without any magic in it.
''Okay ...... but how do I pour it in?''
That's easy to do if you're conscious of transferring the magic power from your hands to the magic stone.
'Okay, I'll try ......
When Elsie held the magic stone, her face was focused.
Then the magic stone lit up.
And voila!
"Congratulations. All you have to do now is practice. Keep working your magic.
Okay. I'll pour the best I can.
Oh, and. Pour your magic into each session until it's gone. Otherwise, it won't matter.
Magic grows best when it's gone.
Okay. That's all of it.
''Yes. Well then, shall we start practicing our creation magic when our magic power exceeds 2,000?
Two thousand? I can't . I can't do it!
You don't have to ask me to do that.
No, it's not. How much magic do you have now?
When I saw him yesterday, his magic power was about nine hundred.
There's only 1,000 more to go. It's as simple as that.
'No, it's not! We only got so far up in two weeks, you know?
It's true that ...... growth speed is slow, but .
''Oh well, if you use the magic stones to train them, your growth speed will increase .
You have nothing to worry about.
Are you sure? Then I'll do my best at .......
Yes, good luck with that.
One week later
Leo! We've reached our goal of two thousand!
A happy Elsie reported back to me.
That's sooner than I expected.
She must have done a great job: .......
'Are you sure? Thanks for your help. We can finally practice our creation magic.
'Really, finally. ...... But I can finally do magic too!
Then I came to Miss Elsie's house again.
Well, you can have that.
Is this a ...... branch?
Okay. It's just a branch right there.
What are you going to do with this branch?
Here's what you do.
Then he transformed the branch into a wooden spoon.
The shape has changed: ......
'The basis of creative magic is using materials to build things.
I didn't know that: ....... I've always thought that you could build things from scratch. Come to think of it, when Leo built this for me, you also prepared the materials for it.
Elsie was convinced as she looked at the necklace I had made.
Oh, thank God you're swallowing so fast!
"It's not absolutely necessary to have the materials. It's just that it can be made like this. But it does use a lot of magic, and your level of creative magic must be high.
Demonstrating and explaining the creation of a stuffed panda without materials .
'Oh, I didn't know that ......
Well, I'll tell you what. Let's try some creative magic.
Practice makes perfect.
Okay, sure. How do I do this for a spell?
"It's easy. Just picture what you want to build. Oh, and don't forget to pour your magic on the branches.
Okay. I'll try.
Elsie grabbed a branch and began to pour her magic power into it .
Then the ...... branch began to glow.
And then it began to change shape.
A little while later, what we have is ......
It was me.
It was me.
Yes, I tried to visualize Leo. But then again, you really can do it just by imagining it.
Ummm, yeah, .......
So why me?
'Now I'm a wizard too! I'm so happy for you!
Well, it's a good thing he looks happy.
More importantly, it proves that non-me can use creation magic too.
Doesn't this completely negate the fact that creation magic is an incompetent magic?
But I wonder if it's going to be hard for Elsie-san to be able to build magic items: .......
Elsie is fifteen years old, and it's still a little difficult for her to grow up to the point where she can create magic items.
Well, he's happy to be able to use magic, so there's no need to think about anything else.
I felt that way when I saw Elsie looking at my figurines and seeing her happy.
