After retiring, I became Loli’s magic mentor

"Too fragile."

Seeing this, Ryan spoke.

Yvette did not answer, but immediately summoned a bunch of flames again... No, this time it should be called flames.

A flame burned blazingly in Yvette's hand. Although it was much weaker than the flame summoned by Nynnelli, it was enough to show Yvette's magical talent.

But Ryan still shook his head: "No, you can only summon such a small flame, and you must ensure that it is stable and can be retracted and released freely. This is a required skill for a magic swordsman."

Yvette nodded, put away the flame, and summoned it again.

Summoning a small, stable flame is much more difficult than summoning a raging fire.

What's more, it has to be able to be retracted and released freely.

This requires the caster to make no mistakes in every step from the conversion of magic elements, to the channeling of magic veins, to the timing and accuracy of casting magic.

For a long period of time that followed, Yvette kept releasing fire element magic repeatedly, while Ryan kept crossing his arms and watching from the side, saying a few words from time to time.

In the training process of the magic swordsman, this is the simplest step and the most important step.

Nunnally, who was watching from the sidelines, also tried to summon flames several times. Because of the innate advantages of the summoner's talent, a small but tough flame was born on Nunnelli's fingertips in just a few attempts.

Seeing how easily Nunnelli summoned such a flame, Yvette's desire to win was also aroused, and she tried harder.

"Don't be distracted."

Ryan nodded from the side: "As a magic swordsman, you must not be confused. Even on the battlefield, you must remain absolutely calm, because once you are confused, you will easily be counterattacked by the professional characteristics of the magic swordsman." .”

"……Yes."

Yvette calmed down, eliminated distracting thoughts, and continued to seriously ponder the fire element magic, and soon entered the state.

Nunnally realized that she seemed to have done something wrong, so she put away the flames with some embarrassment.

It feels quite simple...

At this time, Nunnally suddenly felt a pressure coming from the top of her head. She saw that Ryan had appeared beside her at some point, rubbing her head with her hands and smiling lightly:

"You can master it so easily, as expected of Nenelli."

"They all said don't touch my head..."

Nunnelli blushed and slapped Ryan's palm away like a kitten waving its paw. The movement was still soft, and she wanted to resist but welcomed it.

It seems that Nenelli has become more and more accepting of these little tricks...

Looking at Yvette who was still summoning flames repeatedly, Nenelli asked in a low voice:

"Ryan, tell me...when will Otis master the method of summoning flames?"

"almost."

Ryan said with a slight smile.

As a result, at the moment Ryan's words fell, a small but tenacious flame also emerged in Yvette's hand.

Seeing this, Yvette looked happy and was about to turn her head to look at Ryan, but a feeling of dizziness came to her head and the flame in her hand suddenly went out.

Covering her forehead subconsciously with her small hand, Yvette staggered two steps, barely able to stand still.

It seems that the blue bar has bottomed out...

"Let's practice here first. I saw the flames you just summoned. It's very good."

Ryan stepped forward, held Yvette's shoulders, and said softly: "Let's stay here for lunch, have a good rest, and we will continue practicing in the afternoon."

"……it is good."

Yvette calmed down for a while before replying. It was obvious that the feeling of excessive consumption of magic power was not pleasant.

Only then did Yvette realize that the time had already reached noon without her realizing it.

"It's better to go to my room and rest. I'll call you during lunch."

Nynnally spoke.

A smile appeared on Yvette's little face: "Thank you, Aki-san..."

"I told you that you don't need to thank me!"

Ninelli turned her head away and did not look at Yvette:

"Also, just call me by my name from now on. Aki-san or something like that is not nice..."

"I see."

Yvette was stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "Nenelli, please call me by my first name from now on. To be honest, I don't like others calling me by my last name."

After all, when people mention Otis, they often think of Marquis Otis himself, his burly father who is even stronger than an orc.

Whenever someone calls her Otis, Yvette feels as if that person is referring to her as a tall and strong man...

Ninelli...this counts as making friends, right?

Ryan pinched his chin and couldn't help but think.

In Ryan's mind, this should be the first time Ninelli made friends with someone of her own generation.

Back in the mansion, Yvette entered Ninelli's room with the support of the maid, while Ninelli looked idly at the flowerpot with Sayelan seeds on the table.

Ryan walked into the kitchen, and Delly followed behind Ryan carrying a bag of freshly bought ingredients:

"Mr. Lane, I have bought all the ingredients you want."

"Thanks a lot."

Ryan nodded and took the ingredients.

Speaking of ingredients, most of them are actually medicinal, and most of them are medicinal materials used to nourish magic and energy.

Before teaching Yvette to summon flames, Ryan had already anticipated that this would happen, so he asked Delly to buy these ingredients early.

"Mr. Lane, do we want to take these medicinal ingredients...for lunch?"

Seeing Ryan placing the medicinal materials in the bag on the chopping board one by one, Delly couldn't help but ask.

Ryan nodded: "If you just boil it into a soup, it will be too unpleasant to drink. Although it will lose part of the medicinal effect when used for cooking, it is enough."

——Wouldn’t this make the food taste unpalatable?

Delly opened her mouth, just about to ask such a question, but thinking of Ryan's amazing cooking skills, she swallowed her words back and started to attack Ryan.

For today's lunch, Ryan decided to cook an extra pot of soup and add more herbs.

For example, for those herbs that are more bitter, use fresher ingredients to neutralize them, and add the seasonings prepared by Ryan to ensure that the taste is not bad.

First, the soup was cooked, and then Ryan started to cook the main meal.

"By the way, Mr. Lane, when I was going out to buy something and passed by the newspaper office, I showed your "Cinderella" to the person in charge there. The person in charge there liked the story you wrote very much and decided to publish it tomorrow. It was published in the newspaper, and I still want to meet you."

While handing over the chopped vegetables to Ryan, Delly said:

"The person in charge of the newspaper said that if the response is good, he can cooperate with you for a long time, and then he can give you 10% of the newspaper's profits."

The 10% profit of Yate City Newspaper is not a small figure.
