Chapter 56 . End of magic lesson
"Isn't that boy amazing? I would never have thought of something like that."
"She's the one that Master found, so it's only natural that he's awesome.'"
"Even so, isn't this construction a little too much? How can you come up with such a complicated structure? And at the age of six, too."
"Indeed. When I think about it, her manipulation of magic power was as smooth as Carla's, so maybe she's a genius?"
A blue-haired girl named Kara and a black-haired girl who looks a little younger than Kara are talking about some thing.
I was not sure if Almire's students are below average or not, but I was surprised.
I don't think that Almire's students are anything less than ordinary. Being called a genius by them is quite something to be proud of, don't you think?
In fact, my skills are already better than the average level of magicians including adults, that I know in the gane .
"What is your name, boy?"
A blue-haired girl named Carla asks in a tone that would be appropriate for a six-year-old child.
It's hard to treat me like a child after all this time. But I guess that's how it should be with someone who doesn't really know me.
"My name is Norwin von Endenberg. I look forward to working with you.'
When I intentionally greeted them stiffly to get them to change their perception of me, the way they looked at me instantly changed.
They were probably surprised by my childish attitude.
However, only the dark-haired girl who was talking with Kara seemed surprised in a different way.
The dark-haired girl with wide eyes comes up to me.
'So you are the apprentice of Commander Schneizel?"
Oh, you know him?
I"' don't know, but it's the hot topic of conversation in the society. After all, you are the first disciple of the famous "Violent Sword," who has never taken a single disciple."
"I see... I didn't know he was that popular."
"When I see you in person, I can certainly see why he would take you on as a disciple. I'm sure you have excellent magic skills, a polite way of speaking, and probably a lot of knowledge, too, right? And on top of that, you also have a spear skill... geniuses are amazing, aren't they?"
Well, I don't have any talent.
I have acquired my knowledge from my past life , and I've managed to do magic and spearing with hard work, perseverance, and determination.
I'm not sure why I even bothered to reveal that.
Clap clap
Suddenly, Almire drew the attention of the entire group by clapping his palms together. Then he turns to the dark-haired girl and opens his mouth.
'That's enough . We're not here to question Norwin now, are we?
"Oh, I'm sorry, Master."
"I'm sorry, Master. Let's get on with the lesson.'
And so we took our seats of our own making and finally began to take Almire's lesson.
⚪️.
Almire's teaching style was very similar to that in Japan.
Although the students ranged in age and ability from a six year old like me to Kara in her early teens, all of them were given the same tasks to complete.
The method was not to favor one side over another, but to raise the overall level of the group. Well, perhaps he is also pulling in some excellent ones in other places.
"I guess so. Since there are some visitor today, let's learn about magic starting from the basics,"
She still speaks in her proper Kansai dialect, and her expression seems to be listless.
But she is still the best magician in the country. The students seemed to be concentrating on their master's every move.
Hmmm. So far, I don't see any signs of relaxation on the part of the disciples.
"Norwin!"
"Oh, what is it?"
" You're not listening to me."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"So, what did I say after we started learning about magic from the basics?"
What did you say?
I
was thinking, but I didn't remember what she say after that.
"I'm sorry. I wasn't listening."
'I guess that's all right. Well, I'll forgive you, since you are a potential student. By the way, I didn't say anything."
"No way !"
It's my own fault for not paying attention.
Damn, she really is!
If you look at her , you can see her students giggling as well. This must be Almire's normal routine.
If this is the way Almire normally runs his business, it''s a lost cause.
"So, Lucas, let's get on with it. Tell me how to perform the magic."
"Yes, ! First, by chanting, you draw a magic circle using the magic power in your body. Then, based on the completed magic circle, you control the magic and put it in a standby state for activation."
"I see. O spirit of fire, follow my command and show me the primordial light."
Almire chants the chant of "Fray," the first level magic of the fire attribute.
I' ve seen this scene hundreds of times. The chanting automatically manipulates the magical power in her body, and a magic circle is formed in her right hand.
"If I chant like this, the magic power will be manipulated on its own. But don't you wonder why? Why is it that just by saying words, magic power is manipulated? What makes it a form of magic?'
"That's because the King of Magic has systematized the skill..."
" Karla, you're jumping the gun. There's still one person who doesn't get it, right?"
"Oh, I'm sorry."
". So, Norwin, do you know why chanting is so important?"
I know all about it. Mainly with the knowledge of THE GANE and the knowledge I have acquired since I arrived in this world.
"I know."
I answered, drawing a magic circle of "Frey" without chanting, and pointing to the center of the circle, I said.
I heard that the pattern of the magic circle is derived from ancient letters. For example, the circular pattern in the center of the magic circle here is a shape that means 'fire' in ancient letters."
I heard the disciples gasp at my explanation. Their eyes widened, their whole attention focused on my words. Don't tell me they didn't know this much?
Well, for now, let's continue with the explanation. I shifted my fingertip from the center of the magic circle and pointed to its perimeter.
'The pattern that wraps around the center is a mixture of ancient letters that mean "to cause to occur. And the small letters that fill the gaps are numbers that determine the temperature and size of fire to be generated. In this way, the magic circle drawn by combining meaningful ancient characters is a kind of ceremonial foundation. If you give it power by drawing it with magic, for example, it will take effect immediately."
That's how contemporary magic works. So how is chanting connected to the magic circle? It's--
"The words of the chanting correlate with the patterns of the magic circle. For example, the chanting word that corresponds to an ancestral letter meaning "fire" is "O spirit of fire. When a person with a certain amount of magical power chants it, the magician draws a magic circle in the shape of the ancient letters,"
I finished telling everything I knew for the time being.
I was very careful about what I said because my words were the source of disaster at the time of the Evil cult of Ulgor and at the time of Crescencia.
In truth, there is more to explain later.
The one who systematized the magic that combines ancient letters and chanting is the oldest magician called the "King of Magic" and one of the leaders of the Evil cult of Ulgor---It would be bad if I talked that much.
Yup. This time, there should be no problem!
The result was...
"Oh, you know so much! How did you find out so much?"
"No, well, I want to understand at least the mechanism of the power I handle ------ in books."
"I'm not sure I'd let you be a warrior. Can't you just be a magician now?

"No, no, that's too much to ask."
It seems to be okay for the time being.
What is it?
The foreign person that, despite being six years old, displays knowledge that even the disciples don't know, and makes the head magician roar.
Oh, I see. It's still strange, isn't it?
It's not like Schneizel and Almire are the ones pushing me to grow up. I suppose this is a normal reaction, just as Misha tried to keep me in check.
"I'm sure you guys understood the beauty of chanting to the point of sobbing after I explained it to you. But I don't think it's great at all. l. Once you chant, you can't expect any more efficacy than what was originally decided. That's why, for half a month from today, I'm going to train you to activate the magic I've developed without chanting. If you can do it, I'll give you the wand I once used."
'Really?"
"Well, that's something I'm going to have to get crazy about!"
"Come on, Karla!"
"I'll do my best, Carla!'
Almire, who had restored the delicate mood caused mainly by me with a reward, drew a magic circle on the blackboard in the same vein.
The complexity of its structure is roughly the third or fourth level of the magic , and its attribute is probably water. The rest of the patterns were ones I had never seen before, and I had no idea what effect they would have.
Well, it definitely has a simpler structure than the magic I learned on the test.
'I have to analyze it and make it my own. The due date is, as I said, half a month, and it starts now."
「「「「「Yes! 」」」」」
The room was filled with the cheerful replies of the students. Their enthusiastic attitude shows no sign of slackening.
I wonder if this will end without anything. With that in mind, I too began to work on Almire's task, but the slack she refers to showed itself immediately after that.
It was only about 20 minutes after the classroom lecture was over and we moved on to training in the activation of magic. To my surprise, one of the students turned pale and asked Almire for a break.
What? It's only been two minutes. Has the magic power run out already? No, the symptoms are too mild for that. If it's just a change in color of the face, the amount of magic power consumed is 40% at most. He could still keep going.
During the next ten minutes, two more students went down. The state of exhaustion was not so different from that of the other disciples, and they were still in no condition to rest, but....
'Oh my God, I feel sick, I'm going to puke.'
"Wait, when you calm down a little, you can cast a recovery spell on me."
"I want to recover first.'
"What?"
I can understand taking a break, but using that time for chatting doesn't make sense to me.
Twenty minutes is not much time to make a lot of tries, and at least try to find out why you failed, huh? What's not there?
Just do it and then take a break?
, while I was surprised, one more person fell out of the group.
No, no, wait a minute! Not too little magic power! I'm not even 10% exhausted yet! This training is not the kind that drains a lot of magic power!
You guys have been in contact with magic many times more than me, haven't you!
The fact was so unfathomable that I couldn't help but look at Almire.
She cowered her shoulders and instructed me, 'Keep going.
Hmmm...just do what you normally do?
"The usual practice, you know."
'Norwin-kun, don't push yourself too hard, okay?'
Perhaps it was because she was thinking with a difficult expression on her face.
"Oh, I still have plenty of magic power to spare."
'Still, you really shouldn't be reckless, okay? The pain of running out of magic power has traumatized some people so much that they have become unable to cast a spell'.
Well, I was so traumatized by the suffering that my head almost split open with a headache, I couldn't stop throwing up, and on top of that, my whole body ached like it was burning. Such symptoms can certainly be traumatic.
I'm afraid of it, too. I have a goal that I want to accomplish even if I have to go through that terror, so I'm trying to hold on to it.
"thank you very much. I'm sure I'll be fine."
I assured her, and resumed my training.
About 30 minutes later, Karla, who was probably most talented student, also gave up. In her case, she kept going until she puked, so I'd say her exhaustion rate was about 70%.
---I finally realized exactly what was wrong with me when I saw the state of Kara and the other students.
From the outside, even vomiting is a pretty serious illness. Pushing yourself to the point of running out of magic power, which causes a reaction dozens of times more severe than puking, isn't that the height of insanity?
No, I had to push myself that hard, otherwise the total amount of magic power would not grow at all, so there was nothing I could do.
I spent four hours alone training in magic, thinking about it. When I completely recreated the magic circle presented by Almire, the amount of magic power I had consumed was about 30%. (By the way, during this time, my apprentice was killing time by studying magic and chatting with me.)
'I did it!"
Trial and error. After squashing the failures one by one and arriving at the correct answer, I shouted out from a sense of accomplishment.
But I seemed to be the only one who was feeling relieved, and the students looked at me as if I was a monster.
"Norwin, are you feeling all right?"
"i am fine "
"No way!"
One of the students gulped. Y I thought I heard one of them mutter.
"You're a genius.'
"What?"
Almire looked at me, correcting his student.
"You know, Norwin,, ", "how long do you practice magic every day? '
---Oh, you mean, inspire your students.
'For the past two weeks, I have been practicing for twelve hours every day to accomplish the task given to me by Almire. I think I usually do about half of that."
"Jeez, twelve hours! That's a joke! I can't believe you have that kind of magic power..."
"Cain. I'm not sure how long it's going to last. I mean, it should last. I'm sure you'll be able to keep it for a little less than five hours and you'll still be like this. But that's not a talent."
If it's not talent, then what is it?
To the disciple named Cain who seemed to want to say that, Almire revealed the answer with a gentle smile.
"It's hard work. I heard from Schneizel that this boy practices magic every day until he runs out of magic power. A normal person would go crazy and have a mental breakdown from the pain, so maybe he has a talent for enduring it. But skill in magic is not a talent. It's earned through hard work."
I was a little embarrassed when she said that.
You heard what he said, right? The last two weeks have been twelve hours long. How much have you been working during that time? Thirty minutes a day? Even Carla gets an hour or two?"
The students were suddenly in an angry mood, and they just accepted it with drooping eyes.
"I can understand why you would reduce the amount of time, but I think you're being too soft on yourself. I At least Norwin has done more training in the past two weeks than you have in six months. And it's not just training. He chose what was necessary and unnecessary, and trained to the best of his ability . As the head of the magician order, I will not allow you to cover up that difference with the word 'talent'"
Her tone was gentle, but she had an overwhelming sense of dignity, as if her lowered head were grabbed and slammed to the ground.
No, it was not something as simple as dignity. This was more like pure pressure.
"I'm sorry.'
"It's all right if you understand. I don't want someone who's all talk and no attention to himself as a student of mine. The only one who's gotten a good grade so far is Carla. I'm not as nice to you as some big sword fool, so there won't be a next time. That's all you need to know.'
I was horrified to see Almire as a teacher for the first time, but I knew that she had fulfilled her role as a "stimulus" to her students.
Yes. I knew I had done everything right up to this point.
And so, after finishing Almire's favor, I returned to my daily routine.
And Almire, you're pretty scary. ------
