8. Magdalen Abbey (3)

There are no standout characters.

That protective shield caught in memory correction.

With that size and density, it is bound to stand out unconditionally… .

Is it right to deliberately not show strength?

Or, did he use more strength than usual in an emergency situation?

The latter is also a possibility.

It’s the first day, so don’t worry too much, let’s take it slow.

Above all else, he must have the nerve to focus on Vivian.

While I’m looking for a priest, she plans to teach me other spells.

“Oh, how cute is that?”

Back at the riverside tent with Marie.

I brought it because I was curious.

“Even if we all stay together, it’s okay. But are you going to sleep with other people with Ian?”

“… What do you think?”

“Tell me what you think?”

“I was wrong. We don’t sleep together.”

Marie giggled.

What should I say to this human… .

Scratch me too well

If this fits well, should I say it fits well?

It was Vivian who was surprised by my answer.

“Where will Ian sleep?”

To that question, Marie and Mercy responded at the same time.

“Five… .”

Vivian looked embarrassed and averted her gaze while waiting for an answer.

I felt sorry for myself when I was comfortable with myself.

“Hey, you can sleep on the floor. Or, sleep face down on the table here.”

Marie and Mercy’s eyes returned to Vivian.

It was a look of anticipation of what was to be said.

“That, yes… ok… .”

Marie and Mercy dropped their shoulders in disappointment.

What were you expecting?

I couldn’t bear to touch Marie, so I grabbed Mercy’s ball with my fingers and pressed it.

“Are you going to keep messing around?”

“Nigeu meulduggrenne!”

“I know this, but I just do it.”

“raddish! raddish!”

Seeing Mercy waving her arms around, Marie laughed again.

that man is evil

Much more than me and Mercy.

“When did you prepare all of this?”

“In case you didn’t know, I brought it before you came.”

“Does it have to be this much to be the first party manager… . Can I stay with you today?”

“Well, I don’t care.”

All eyes focused on Vivian.

“Uh, huh? Yeah? Me, me, if Ian’s okay… .”

“Speak your opinion, not mine.”

“Right. You say you have to raise your voice when you can?”

“Well… . Then I’m fine too. It is good if there are many people.”

Vivian smiled and replied.

It was a dog-like reaction.

Marie, who had been watching it blankly, muttered.

“I really want to steal it. Can’t I kidnap you while you sleep?”

“no.”

“I know. Because it’s Ian.”

“… … .”

Let’s not react.

If you react, I lose.

It was around evening when the sun was slowly setting, so I prepared a meal.

Marie tried to help with something, but she had to let Mercy do it, so she let her sit.

Marie opened her mouth wide as she saw the ingredients lined up one by one.

“What… . Why are there so many, no, where did all this come from now?”

“An artifact pouch.”

“… Wow. I can’t take Vivian with me.”

“Now do you understand?”

“Oh, a little restraint.”

“ah.”

don’t react… .

Embarrassed to listen, Vivian turned her back and looked up at the night sky.

I still see all the red ears.

“You’re cooking… do well?”

After laying out the ingredients, I asked Mercy.

“well… ? I don’t know. Didn’t I always do what you asked me to do?”

“Because there was a separate main chef back then.”

“Well, if you can’t do it, you just have to give up!”

“Why do you say that with your own mouth?”

Mercy, who was optimistic and rough-and-tumble, followed surprisingly quickly.

However, I had never held a knife in any way, so I was inexperienced in cutting.

in the end i did it

Vivian, who had been showing her back before she knew it, also came and watched.

It’s the first time I’ve ever seen cooking in front of me.

“Well… . Maybe I don’t have the qualifications to be a manager.”

With Marie muttering, the table was filled with dishes.

“I will eat well.”

“Thank you, Ian.”

Vivian and Marie greeted each other and started eating.

Marie, who had a drink, looked at me with wide open eyes.

“You know that Vivian gave up, right?”

“That is fortunate.”

“Instead, join me at the party. If I can eat this much, I’ll go in. Where, are there any knight positions left?”

“You’re not superhuman.”

“Oh, I heard you. I almost passed.”

*

After eating, Kati caught fish in the river.

food for tomorrow

Marie watched it.

“Ha ha ha! Hey, what do you catch every time you stretch out? How great?”

Despite Marie’s praise, Kati was indifferent.

“It’s good to be consistent and unpretentious.”

Mercy said she would do it alone and arranged the table.

Just in time, I took Vivian and brought her to a place where there were no obstacles.

“Vivian.”

“Yes Yes?”

… why are you so upset

“Are you paying attention to what Marie said?”

“Ah no?”

“It’s almost the same answer as saying yes.”

“Okay… .”

In the distance, Marie claps seals while watching Kati.

“It’s a pointless joke, so don’t mind it.”

“Yes Yes. sure. yes.”

“Anyway. Why did you say there was one more magic that could be used?”

It was the first time he asked me to show him magic in Arke Village.

She said there must be two.

Later, he said that he did not use the other one because he feared it would catch fire.

It’s probably fire-type magic.

“yes. Right.”

“I want to check the rest of them.”

“I know.”

“By the way, there is nothing to ride here, but please reduce the strength. I just want to see what kind of magic it is.”

“I will try… .”

Vivian can’t handle mana delicately yet.

It has improved a lot, but it is true that it is lacking.

Vivian opened her eyes and stared straight ahead.

Now, the habit of casting magic with eyes closed has been completely erased.

Soon after, a red magic circle was drawn over her head.

A black fireball was born from the center.

… is it a bit big?

“Uh, uhhhh… !”

He panicked and fired the fireball into the river.

A large fireball followed a short tail and crashed into the riverbed.

– Kwakwang!

The gushing waters and fragments of broken rocks splashed in all directions.

I hurriedly pulled Vivian over and knocked her over.

Right after the top was covered, a large stone passed behind my head.

In the distance, I saw Marie and Mercy lying flat on the campsite.

It’s not within the reach of the fragments, but everyone seems to have fallen on their stomachs in surprise.

– Hood deuk… .

Hitting the gravel and sand, I waited for the commotion to subside.

“Are you not hurt?”

“Ah, I’m, uh, okay… Well, that’s… .”

Vivian stopped talking and looked up at me.

Vivian’s eyes, hidden in my shadow, trembled.

uh… .

I wonder if it’s a bit closer right now… .

“Ah, hehe… . sorry.”

“Oh, no… . That’s what I did wrong, uhm… .”

It’s all because of Marie.

Wouldn’t it be so awkward?

There’s nothing wrong with trying to protect a close comrade… .

We were in a similar situation when we first met, but it wasn’t like this back then.

[master.]

“100 million!”

“Hey?! Why, why are you like that?”

“Oh, no.”

We need to take the ring from him quickly.

My heart broke and I almost died.

‘Why why.’

[…] Look out.]

‘What? you?’

[…] … .]

‘You bring the ring.’

[…] I hate it.]

‘Look at him?’

I shot Kati from afar.

Kati closed her eyes and rested her chin on her front paws.

Marie and Mercy, who quietly stood up, looked at me and smiled.

ah… .

“That, anyway. It’s power control, you just have to practice step by step… .”

“Yes Yes. Then you can… .”

“Next time, you should shoot a little farther. Anyway, it’s a fireball, right?”

The most basic of flame-type magic, ‘Fire Ball’.

As the name suggests, it is a magic that projects round fireballs.

“yes that’s right.”

However, Vivian’s fireball was a bit strange.

“Did you know there was a black sphere in the middle of the fireball?”

“Um… . yes… .”

Fireball is a ball of pure fire.

The middle cannot be black.

“Because I, uh, actually learned it over my shoulder… . I completely missed the schematic. So, I use it in combination with fireball and rock shot.”

Rock Shoot is the basic magic of the rock world, which shoots boulders.

… So, because you didn’t know it well, you combined the two magics you learned as a savage?

magic fusion?

Do you know what you’re talking about now?

“Huh… .”

Magic spells serve two functions.

Taking the Ice Spear as an example, ‘Ice’ is a trait, and ‘Sphere’ is a method.

Magic is like a mathematical formula.

The characteristics and methods that can be harmonized are determined.

Magic is simply implementing a fixed answer by understanding the schema.

What deviated from that formula is ‘magical fusion’.

The mixing of traits or methods with other magical things.

It is analogous to mixing water and oil.

No casting talent, Sylvia-level comprehension… .

If the owner of the Magic Tower finds out, you think he’ll make a human sacrifice to take him away?

“Umm, um, something, say… .”

Even if I told Vivian now, she wouldn’t understand.

To be honest, I don’t have a professional knowledge of magic, so I don’t have the confidence to make you understand.

“That’s a bit surprising… .”

However, I can’t let that fireball be used as it is.

Wouldn’t it be great if Vivian had become highly proficient in handling mana?

Mixing the two magics is dangerous for Vivian right now.

“Would you like to draw a diagram that Vivian remembers?”

Moving to the table, Vivian seamlessly drew complex diagrams on the parchment.

“I may be wrong, but this is it.”

“Hmm.”

It’s definitely different from the fireball schematics I know.

I mean, this is a schematic that I roughly fused together… .

“oh… .”

“yes? ah.”

Looking closer, their shoulders met.

“sorry.”

“That, it’s okay.”

I’m fine too… No, isn’t it okay?

is not it… ?

Because of Marie, I have all sorts of strange thoughts.

Sitting across from Vivian, I drew a diagram of a proper fireball and lock shot.

“Wow… . Do you remember that too?”

“… ? You drew Vivian from your memory, right?”

“Ah, that’s right. Hehe.”

… Am I a bit ignorant image?

It doesn’t look sophisticated.

“This is Fireball. This is a rock shot. For now, understand these two magics separately. I think it needs to be written separately.”

“Yes, got it.”

No-casting talent doesn’t mean you can use all magic immediately after seeing it.

You have to understand the schematic and envision the magic representation in your head.

However, once you understand no casting, you can skip the chant and use magic at the speed of your thoughts.

That alone is an insane ability.

Although I have to use it several times and refine it while embracing it.

“Right, Ian. You know I got 1 gold.”

“yes.”

“How do you share?”

Oh, yes.

Because I usually share the money with the dragon and the manager.

It’s a bit of an odd price for me… .

“I will have them all.”

“yes. here… ”

“No, no wait. Why don’t you hesitate?”

“yes? Considering the money Ian spent on me, I thought it would exceed 1 gold… .”

“But if you just skip it like that… .”

Vivian tilts her head as she looks at her innocently.

… I was just kidding, sorry about that.

“How do I get it all? I was kidding.”

“So what?”

“Vivian has everything.”

“… What?”

Vivian opened her mouth for a second, narrowed her eyes, and smirked.

“Is this a joke too?”

“Isn’t it?”

“… What?”

“Then I will go to Paris.”

“oh.”

Vivian closed her mouth and stayed still, then suddenly jumped up.

“Wait! You want me to take all 1 gold?”

“Do you like it?”

“Poem, I don’t like it, but… .”

Now I have the emergency money I saved to give to the first party kids when they need it.

So, there is no shortage of money for the time being.

“I think it’s a commemoration of the first settlement, and a reward for hard work for two years.”

“2 years… . Go, thank you… . black, uh… .”

Wait, why are you crying… ?

“Wow. Ian made Vivian cry.”

“You really are a bad boy.”

Marie and Mercy approached and smirked.

“I didn’t.”

“Then why would Vivian cry alone?”

“So it is. Anyone can see that you are in the wrong situation, aren’t you?”

“ah.”

“No… .”

Whimpering Vivian sighed and defended me.

Marie looked at him and crossed her arms and said confidently.

“You have to give me at least 1 gold to take such a cute Vivian.”

“… yes?”

“I can’t be because I’m a bit of a snob. too bad.”

Apparently, Vivian will be teased by Marie for the rest of her life.

“But didn’t you two sign a contract? I usually write down the settlement ratio when I write it.”

“Oh right. But right now I don’t have the contract form.”

How long has it been since I wrote the hero contract… .

“I have a few copies, would you like some?”

“Are you carrying something like that?”

“Because you never know when and where you’ll seduce a warrior or an aspirant.”

I got a standard form contract from Marie and sat in front of Vivian.

“oh… .”

When you hand over the contract, you are visibly embarrassed.

As if he was anxious, he turned his eyes back and forth.

“why?”

“Oh, well, that… . All, next, later! Can I use it or not… ?”

“I don’t necessarily have to write now, but… .”

“Then I will write next… ! Now, I also have to study magic… .”

I’m not sure, but there must be a reason.

“okay.”

Talked to Marie while Vivian was studying.

“Does the monastery have a list of apprentice nuns?”

“Yes, there is. We have released the mid-term evaluation rankings conducted every month. Do you want to go see it tomorrow?”

“So be it.”

I’ll have a look at that list tomorrow.

Information is too scarce.

*

Looking at the list didn’t change anything.

There were names written from 1st to 30th, but there was no useful information.

“It’s not particularly useful.”

“It is.”

However, this monastery manager will have detailed information.

A way to meet… There is.

“Hmm… .”

When I was the 1st party manager, that title alone gave me power, but not now.

You should try to use everything you can.

“I’ll go somewhere else for a while.”

“Please.”

Marie left and moved with Mercy.

Vivian is training and has Kati by her side.

Because of that, I couldn’t take the ring.

“Where are you going?”

“To meet the highest person here.”

I asked a passing nun for directions and found the abbot’s office.

I stood in front of the door and carefully knocked on the door.

I feel a bit embarrassed, but I can’t help it.

-Come on in.

Permission was lost inside.

I opened the door with the apostle’s gold coin in my hand.
