I'm going to be able to say that you are too focused on your opponent (me) and your magic manipulation is a mess. Don't disrupt your concentration.
Yes, sir! Master!
On the outskirts of Farren.
In the idyllic atmosphere of the grasslands, the sound of an unlikely blowout echoes through the grasslands.
It's Wyrm and Kounaria.
Meldina is also standing at the side, watching the battle between the two with a serious expression.
While dealing with Coonaria's attack, Virum points out and corrects what is not good.
Since the instruction is given while in combat, the recipient, Coonaria, is desperate to bite the bullet.
For a while, they have been training in combat, but when Coonaria has reached her limit and collapsed, they take a break.
''Hakyuu~...''
Vilm slowly lays Coonaria on the ground as she tries to regulate her ragged breaths while rolling her eyes, and gives her the daily customary treatment of regenerating the magic circulation pathway.
'Coonaria, be aware of the circulation of magic power even when you can't move. If you consciously circulate it to every corner of your body, it will help you recover your strength faster.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I understand. I don't...
Following the guidance, Cunaria becomes aware of the magic power that flows in while feeling tired.
Then Meldina, who had been observing the training until just now, approached.
''Ha~........I think after watching it every day, Ville's magic power manipulation and conversion skills are top-notch. Normally, transferring magic power to another person is almost ineffective because the conversion efficiency is too low, right?
The transfer of magic power that Wyrm does casually.
When transferring magic power, you have to convert it to a quality that suits the person, and even if you succeed, it's an extremely difficult technique that causes most of the transferred magic power to be lost.
Furthermore, recovery magic is not that difficult to use, since the magic transfer is a mental action, while recovery magic is a physical action.
It's a good thing that you're able to use it.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. It's not difficult to transfer whoever they are, as long as you know the quality of their magic power.
I'm telling you that's not normal.
"Hey, Virum! Then why don't you give me some of your magic?
The one who popped up was Miserio, a spirit who has a contract with Meldina.
The reason why he hadn't shown himself since he entered Farren was to avoid being seen by the public.
Unlike the contracted spirits of summoners, the contracted spirits of spirit sorcerers cannot be summoned or repatriated.
For example, they have no way to escape even if they are captured by special magic or magic tools.
Therefore, they are extremely averse to being seen by anyone other than their contractors.
The fact that Wyrm is a human who calls spirits family, and Cunaria is worthy of being Meldina's best friend, makes them special.
It's fine, but if you take too much magic from me, you won't be able to accept Meldina's magic, will you?
"Huh? Is that...?
What's going on, Vir?
Meldina and Miserio ask for an explanation.
''Basically, you knew that magic power of different quality would be ineffective or diluted when transferred, right?
Meldina and Miselio nodded at Wyrm's question.
''Then why do you think it's possible to transfer magic power between a spirit and a contractor?
'That's because I felt connected to Miselio when I signed the contract... and then I was able to give him the magic just because I wanted to give it to him, so I didn't think too much about it... If you ask me, I'm curious.
Meldina's eyes begin to shine as she discovers a new unknown.
That sense of connection is what we call a link. Those who have made a contract with each other are connected on a soul level. Through this connection, magic power is also converted into the same quality material, making it easier to transfer.
"Oh, I see.
Now, that's where the problem comes in, the transfer of magical power from others. A small amount ... or rather less than the amount of magic power transferred by the contractor, there is no problem, but if you receive more than that, the resonance will be abnormal. Fairies and spirits are heavily influenced by magic power, so their resonance is disrupted as they try to accept more magic power. So there will be an abnormality in the magic circulation pathway between the spirits and the contractor.
''...I'm not going to do that to me, so don't worry.''
The two of them look at Vilm with some fear, but they are relieved to see that he has no intention of doing so.
''...Okay, Cunaria, that's enough.''
Wyrm gave Kunalia a light smack on her forehead to signal the end.
He looked at Cunaria, who got up and stretched out with a 'hmmm', and began to talk about what was bothering him in the training he had just done.
'It was only a lightly flushed training, but I got the gist of the problem. Currently, due to the fact that Coonaria's growth was stunted, her attack range (reach) is extremely short. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to train with a weapon that has the potential to grow in the future, but it's better to train with a weapon that can compensate for that and still be used as trained even after it has grown.
'Oh, yes! If it's a long attack range (reach), wouldn't a bow be better after all?'
Miselio cheerfully suggests it, but Virum's reaction to hearing it is slow.
''Umm.... Coonaria is the cow man race, right? When you grow up, if you draw the bow the same way you do now... your breasts will be shredded?
Huh?
Coonaria lets out a small scream, as if she had imagined Vilm's words.
It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of it. If you prefer other weapons, that's fine with me. You can pick a weapon that Coonaria wants to use.
Oh, well, that would be... I'd like to try my hand at an axe, sir.
Coonaria raises a small hand while being timid and tells her what she wants.
''Coonah is almost new to combat itself, so maybe a spear would be better. Ville's right, it's easy to handle, okay?
Meldina recommended the spear as if she was a little surprised at the weapon that Cunaria chose, perhaps because she was surprised at the weapon she chose.
''Yes, I think the spear is easier to use, as Mel-chan and Master say. But I'm new to holding a weapon, and I don't think I'll be able to fight well for a while with either one.
Cunaria looked down with a little self-mockery, but poof, she raised her head.
''Then I want to use an axe. I want to learn to be powerful, something I couldn't do before.''
There was a strong longing and determination in her eyes.
Even though it was due to her illness, Kounaria, who had been useless in the physical part of her life until now, longed for strength.
Hence the choice.
''I understand how Kounaria feels. From tomorrow, in addition to physical strengthening, I will also train in the axe technique (fujutsu).
'Ville, you're making light of this, but are you sure? I've never seen Ville use an axe before, but...?
Meldina's worries are no surprise.
This is because, as with all martial arts, you can't expect to grow unless you are taught by someone who can teach you the basics.
It is still better to hone your skills in your own way.
I can't go into more detail, but I can handle the basics with any weapon I want. It's because the spirits of the world have trained me in many aspects of martial arts and learning. As a result, I became good at martial arts and became good at fists because martial arts suited my personality.
Saying that, Virum's expression looks proud as he makes a clenched fist.
(Can I, myself, be as strong as Master...?)
Virum, noticing the anxious thoughts on his face, lightly flapped the back of Cunaria's head.
''Ah! Oh, Master...?
'I don't know what you're worried about, but I'll take care of you exactly as long as I promised. At least I won't let you get away with it until you've taken a shot at me, so be prepared for that, okay?
Yes, sir!
A declaration from Virum, who is his own teacher.
Those words, directed at himself, who didn't even have physical strength, let alone combat experience, echoed in the heart of Kunaria, who yearned for strength.
(I'm saying that my master will train me. I'm going to be strong!)
With determination, "Mmmm! Cunnalia gets fired up.
Meldina and Miselio are cheering at such a counalia.
''At any rate, let's start with the weapon selection. So much for today's training, let's go buy weapons for Kounaria.
