"What happens when you put magic power under pressure?"
......" What are you imagining this time, ......? Master Rid."
Today I was taking a lesson from Sandra on attack spells.
The other day, Father told me that the schedule for trip to Renalute had been set.
He also informed me that some factions in Renalute were apparently thinking of a plan to eliminate me as a potential marriage candidate.
So I decided that I should check all the martial arts, magic, manners, etc. before I left.
And so today I am going to focus on offensive magic.
But I have been practicing offensive magic on my own.
I have shown it to Sandra several times, and she assures me that there is no problem.
Then, I decided to think of a more effective and powerful way to use offensive magic.
So I asked Sandra for her opinion, and she looked at me with a doubtful face and said,
"I've never ...... thought of the idea of compressing magic power. I've never even heard of it, so I doubt anyone has tested it. How do you intend to compress it in the first place?"
"I see. Well, can I try an experiment under Sandra's observation"?"
'Hah ...... well, I'm interested too, so let's give it a try. But if you think it is risky, stop the spell immediately. If that's not possible, please fire your magic towards the sky, okay?"
Sandra was dumbfounded, but her curiosity got the better of her, and she agreed to accompany me in my experiment.
Immediately, I stood at a little distance from the targets for spells and bows in the training grounds and began to knead magic.
Then, Sandra asked me to wait for her.
'Master Rid, this time I will be observing you in the experiment, so please tell me the name of the spell."
'Yes...'
Well, what's the point of having Sandra observe if she doesn't know what kind of spell I' m going to use?
With this in mind, I once again transformed the magic power and concocted the magic power.
First of all, I shot as usual, including the significance of showing it to Sandra.
"Fire Spear."
As I muttered the name of the spell, the fire, which literally became a spear with a pointed tip, flew straight toward the target and hit it.
Well, that's about right, isn't it?
Sandra called out to me as I was thinking this.
"Is that compression? It's the same as always, isn't it?"
'No, I just shot it normally. I thought I would show you the normal version first for comparison."
" I see. Then, the next one is the main one."
Sandra, who approached me, was almost losing the light in her eyes, as if she was disappointed.
But when I told her that the magic I was performing now was the normal version, her eyes lit up again with hope.
("She really likes magic,) as I regained my composure and began to knead the magic again.
Then, I held out my hand in a fist toward the target and chanted.
"Fire spear."
But this time, it didn't shoot immediately.
I chanted, but the magic power that was supposed to be activated as a "fire spear" was now spiraling inside my fist, trying to get out.
I put strength into my fist and collapse the spiraling magical power.
In other words, I compress it.
Then, I inject more magic power into the "fire spear" that was swirling around inside my fist.
As I do so, the force of the "fire spear" trying to go out becomes stronger and stronger.
I clench my fist even tighter and compress it to restrain the force.
Of course, I do not stop pouring magic power into it.
And when the force of repulsion in my hand became so strong that I could no longer hold it back, I had a hunch.
"This is a very dangerous ".
I felt a sense of danger from the power of the magic swirling in my fist, so I held my fist out toward the sky and chanted the name of the spell again.
"Fire spear ".
At that moment, a tremendously heavy roar echoed around me.
At the same time, a huge mass of fire, larger than myself, flew in a line toward the sky, bringing with it a roar.
The tip was pointed like a spear, and there was no doubt that the magic was a "fire spear" from its features.
However, the scale of the fire was far beyond the usual.
Soon, the fire spear flew away into the sky and disappeared from sight.
......"
Sandra and I were speechless, both of us looking at the sky where the fire lance had flown away.
Then, Sandra suddenly said, "I'm sorry, but I don't know what to say.
...."..Compression magic is banned for the time being."
Let's try again "
Sandra and I were in agreement.
Then, a little stunned, we both began to examine the compression spell.
"Do you think it's that over-the-top?"
Sandra suddenly began to talk about something very serious.
"What does she mean by " overturning it from the very beginning"?
r, she sighed and began to explain.
'The first step in the process of what is called "attack magic" is to (1) develop magic power by transforming magic power, (2) create a solid image of the magic power, and (3) launch the magic power. In this process, (1) decides the scale of the spell. And this is important. Naturally, the greater the magic power in (1), the more difficult the process in becomes."
"In other words, the larger the scale of attack magic, the more magic power and specific images are needed, right?"
"That is correct."
That is correct.
But it seems like tapping into the same process was used earlier, but is it different?
Hmmm.
Hmmm.
She continued to explain when she saw my wondering face.
"The important thing is that the procedure that Master Rid just performed (1) is simplified by repeated steps (4) and (5), while (1) was intended to be performed in the previous step (1)."
I see, what has been necessary for large-scale attack spell is magical power and a concrete image.
To do these two things each time is a lot of work, including the learning curve.
But if you use the method I used, the "fireball" that Sandra taught me can do something similar to the "fire spear" I mentioned earlier.
I understood that I could do the same thing with the "fireball" that Sandra had taught me.
I told Sandra what I understood, including way of confirmation.
"The first time I did this, I had to create a detailed and concrete image of the spell after I had worked out its magic power. But what I did was to inject magic power into the activated magic afterwards, raising even ordinary magic to the same level of power as large-scale magic, is that correct?"
Sandra nodded at my words and continued her explanation.
That's right. If we can understand and use the method devised by . Rid, anyone will be able to use magic with terrific power. It's like a kind of mysticism. Master Rid is truly entertaining ......, extraordinary ."
Now you were going to say what you really meant about me being entertained, weren't you?
But I'm not sure if the secret spell seems like an overstatement.
She said anyone could use it, so I thought Sandra could use it too. So I said to her, "Y
, "You said 'anyone,' could you use it too, Sandra?"
Sandra's eyes began to sparkle as if she had been waiting for me to say that.
Then she cleared her throat and said happily,
"As a teacher, I have to confirm whether my guess of the method devised by Rid is right . Now, please teach me how to do it."
She moved her face closer to me as she said this.
I felt like a quack.
With that thought in mind, I explained the spell process I had just performed.
Sandra immediately began to try it.
It seems that they perform magic with a "fireball".
Like me, she shot a test shot in the normal condition and then started testing the method of the magic compression.
As expected, she seemed to have used less magical power than I had just used, and she immediately fired her magic.
Even so, the size of the flame was clearly different from the spell she had first invoked.
Satisfied with the result of the spell, she smiled a big smile, but then she turned back to me and suddenly turned serious and said, "The way this spell works is out of the realm of possibility."
"Let's keep this spell out of the gate," But we should tell loerd Rainer about it f. This mechanism is dangerous in many ways."
Unlike her usual self, she seemed quite serious.
That's all.
This compression magic might have shaken the current concept of offensive spells.
'I understand. I will not use this magic in the future unless there is something serious."
"I think that would be good."
She smiled at me and then said in her usual lighthearted manner.
"After all, you are outside the standard, aren't you, Master Rid?"
' ...... Stop with the ...... not-standard .......'
She smiled happily and said this .
:Speaking of which, I understand that Master Rid is going to visit Renalute in the near future?"
."Yes, but you are very well informed".
I was a little surprised that she knew what my father and I had just talked about the other day.
She looked at me and smiled.
'Master rid , I have some advice for you ".
"What is it?"
I didn't have a very good feeling when it's came tp Sandra's advice.
The stake that sticks out gets driven in. But the stake that comes out too high will not be driven. Master Rid, even if you are in Renalute, you should be able to go beyond the standard and break through to the top of the kindom ."
Sandra was placing her right hand on her hip while pointing the index finger of her left hand toward the heavens.
'...... I've heard that before. That's not advice, that's just what Sandra wants to say. ......"
I was tired of her advice.
In contrast, Sandra seemed satisfied with what she had to say.
◊
At the end of the day, it was a nice day at the mansion.
Later, on a sunny day in the mansion, a rare lightning strike nearby.
The talk of the town was that something unusual had happened, a so-called " out of the blue".
Everyone said they heard thunder, but Mel told me that the sound was not thunder.
"Ni-chan, that was not the sound of thunder. I saw it, and it's a secret because everyone is scared of it."
"I understand. It's a secret between me and Mel."
I apologized in my mind as I said that.
(Sorry, that's my spell , not dragon or lightning. ......)
I decided once again not to use compression spell for the time being.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
