“Here, try using this.”

“Is this, the same magic tool we used to measure our attributes?”

Aria passes magic through the tool I give her.

――――――――――
[Attack] 0
[Durability] 1
[Agility] 1
[Intelligence] 1
――――――――――

“Hm? This is different from before.”

When Aria used the magic tool, characters emerge as always, but they were completely different from the ones before.
Reno peaks into the magic tool used by Aria from behind.

“It’s true! Lain nii-chan! Is this different from the one before?”
“That’s right. Magical power is completely different depending on the person. The last tool gave a number only to each attribute, but this one gives a number to each special characteristic.”

Humans produce magical power, which differs from person to person, based on attributes and qualities.
It is said that two humans with the same magical characteristics don’t exist in this world.

But that alone makes it difficult to use, so to find out if you can use magic with certain characteristics, we use magic tools like this one and the one before.

Well, it’s a rough analysis, and it’s not all that accurate, but it should be somewhere around this figure.

“What’s special characteristic?”
“I guess I have to start with that. Magic also strengthens your body. Knights who use magic are much stronger than commoners, right? That’s because their body is unconsciously powered-up by this phenomenon. If you use up all your magic, you lose this power-up, making you physically weak, and scattering your focus.”
“Eh? Is that so?”

Apparently, even Aria didn’t know that.
Well, it’s no big deal even if she didn’t.

“If I go into the details, the explanation will get too long, so think of it as something like that. The direction of this strengthening can also be tilted towards a certain direction. In other words, one of these stats can be at most 1.5 times the other ones, if you’re not using pills.”
“I get it. You plan on making us focus on a particular ability.”
“That’s exactly it.”

Sui noticed quickly what I had planned for them.

“Reno on [Agility], Sui on [Intelligence], and Aria on [Durability].”
“W, wait. Magic doesn’t increase that easily though…”

Magic doesn’t increase easily.
This is a common line of thinking in this world.

But it’s also a big misunderstanding.

“This is a secret passed down in my family, but magical power doesn’t increase much in places where it’s lightly concentrated. Only when the body runs out of magic reserves, or when it is growing. However, if you go to a place with a high concentration of magical power, it will go up easily.”

Though it’s a family secret, the only one left who knows about it is me.

Anti-demon aristocrats were once insanely strong people who defeated large hoards of monsters with small numbers. This was the secret to their strength.

Even if you train your magic normally, it’ll at most increase by 1 per year.
But if you fight monsters in the Demon Forest by using your magic, then adding a point every few days isn’t difficult.

The anti-demon aristocrats who knew this, entered the Demon Forest to increased their magical power and maintain their strength.
I was made to do the same after I was born, by my mother.

Since I was reincarnated, I managed to grow up sane while doing it, but most people would usually end up with brain damage.
My mom was also a bit off the high end.

“I, it can’t be…”

Aria seemed to have realized what I was tip-toeing at.
Her face goes pale.

“Go to the Demon Forest to train. That’s the fastest way you’ll get strong.”
“That’s reckless! What if monsters jump out at us!?”
“The strength of a monster is proportional to the concentration of magical power. However, you can still get plenty of experience by defeating weak monsters.”

The concentration of magic in the Demon Forest is insanely high.

The trees in the forest seem to suppress the scattering of magical power, and the concentration in overgrown areas could be tens to hundreds of times higher than that the parts without trees.

As a result, monsters are more likely to spawn in those areas, so each country actively cuts the forest down to make farmlands.

Despite that, the areas with trees are more suitable for practice.
Training a few months inside the forest would make one much stronger than training outside.
Despite the risk, I think training inside would be more beneficial.

“Aria! Don’t worry, we’ll be fine!”
“Reno!”
“Lain is, with us. No problem.”
“Sui, you too.”

Aria seemed reluctant, but the other two were raring to go.

“Well, it’s like they said. I’ll accompany you all for the time being, so there’s virtually no danger.”
“…But…”

Aria was still not convinced.
She must be anxious about letting the kids enter the forest.

I might be in the wrong, when it comes to that.

“Aria.”

Sui pulls on the astringent Aria’s clothes.
As she looks at her, Aria’s eyes match Sui’s who had a serious face.

“I couldn’t do anything, when we were attacked yesterday. If I’d learnt, more magic, learnt more, offensive magic; is all I thought of, regretfully. I don’t want to, regret again.”
“Sui…”

Sui must have thought a lot about the attack yesterday.

Aria returned to the village with me, so she couldn’t have felt the danger.
Unlike her, Sui would have been fearing death for quite a long time.
Her will to get stronger must be many times higher than Aria’s.

Had I came a little later, she might have actually died, so there’s that.

Aria turns her face down, thinks about something, then raises her face as if she had decided.

“Alright. Let’s train with everyone.”
“Yeah! Let’s do our best!”
“Work hard.”

Things had somehow sorted themselves here.
As expected, we can’t go to the forest without the representative, Aria’s, permission.

I looked on at the excited three, while thinking of the training we’ll be doing from now.
