Okay, sit in that chair over there.
He obeyed honestly and went behind Amy and put his hands on both her shoulders.
'Breathe in slowly ... let it out ...'
Amy does as she's told, breathing, and I'm going to take a moment to exhale.
Hi!
The magic power flowed through Amy. He didn't grant it, but flowed it like an electric current.
''Wha, what are you doing!
Amy was surprised, but
Hold your hand over the tub again before you forget what it feels like now.
I ignored him and gave him instructions nonchalantly.
'What is it, all of a sudden...'
Amy held her hand over the tub while muttering, and this time the water shook, albeit only slightly.
''Hey, it's working!
Amy started to get excited as if she had forgotten what happened earlier.
She was so excited that Karina-san and Arie-san ran out of the house.
However, Amy didn't even seem to notice that.
''Temma-san, what's going on?''
Karina asked me, and I just told her that Amy was showing signs of magic.
They were both quite surprised, probably not expecting to start seeing results this quickly.
That's when Amy finally noticed them and explained to them in a big way.
But they were a little too excited, so
Amy, just look at this.
I manipulated the water in the tub, turning it into a string of rhythmic gymnastics ribbons, and twirling it around to show her how to do it.
Amy looked at me dumbfounded, then put the water back in the tub.
'What Amy was able to do was less than the basics of the basics. Don't get too excited!
And then he nailed it.
'Yes! Teacher!
And for some reason, the teacher had upgraded me to a teacher. In his eyes, instead of the slightly hostile look in his eyes from earlier, they had been replaced by a look of respect.................I've seen those eyes before, I was thinking
Oh, it's just like the eyes of a primera!
I couldn't help but say out loud.
Amy was nodding her head, so I fooled myself into thinking it was nothing.
(Oh, so that means Primera was respecting me... why?)
I was left to ponder.
'Um~ Sir what should I do next?'
Temma had been thinking that, but she hadn't realized that in the world it was brainwashing.
'For now, let's just do the same thing over and over again. We just have to get used to the feeling first.
Yes, I understand, sir!
I don't feel bad about being called a teacher but it's kind of frustrating.
''Ahhhh, Amy, please don't call me teacher........''
'Well you're a teacher, aren't you?
You used to call me Miss Temma not long ago! I'm trying to resist the urge to say.
All right, just don't call me unless it's for practice...
Then we'll have to make the first move and get him to compromise!
Um... okay.
He agreed, although he was not happy about it, but he agreed.
I'm sure that's all we'll be able to do for now. When you get used to it, let's move on. We're done for today!
What, already?
Amy wants to do more.
'Amy must be more tired than she realizes right now. Now is not a good time to push yourself.
When he said that gently, Amy didn't say more. Perhaps she realized her own fatigue when she was out of it.
Aimee seemed to have more talent than she thought, and if she kept going, the two rockbirds would be able to use it in plenty of time.
I shared some snacks with Aimee as a way of recovering from the fatigue. The sweet-smelling snacks seemed to revitalize Amy a bit... Beside her, Shiroumaru was begging her to have some too, so I cut her some.
That's when Aimee stumbled back to the house, stepping on a pebble.
I pulled her in as quickly as I could, so she didn't mock it.
You! What the hell have you done to Amy!
Suddenly, a man came running from behind me with an amazing look on his face.
It was so amazingly swashbuckling that I manipulated the remaining water in the vat into a string and wrapped it around the man's body to freeze it.
The man was straining his arms to break the ice, but it wasn't so easy to break it, as I poured a lot of magical power into it.
Unaware of this, the man lost his balance and rolled grandly as he tried to break the ice that was clinging to his body as he ran.
'Dad! What are you doing!
I could roughly imagine that it was Amy's father, after all.
It was so noisy that Karina and the others, who were far away, seemed to have heard it too.
'What are you doing! You stupid son of a b*tc*!
Ms. Arie was bashing the man's head with the broom she was holding.
Miss Karina looked apologetic.
'I'm sorry that's my husband Rick....'
And the one who's even angrier than I am is Shiroumaru.
Shiroumaru, oblivious to my emotions, snarls at the writhing Rick as he approaches.
'Wow! Don't come over here!
Rick moved his body as if to chase it away, but of course it was ineffective.
Eventually, Shiroumaru comes up to Rick's doorstep and pokes Rick's head with his paw, like a cat teasing a mouse.
After a few pokes, Shiroumaru seemed to feel much better, and returned to me with a satisfied look on his face.
He wagged his tail and came to me, showing Shiroumaru the candy that had fallen to the ground.
You're angry about the candy and you're not worried about me?
When I asked that question.
Squeak, squeak.
He started to squeal, showing his belly.
The sight of him made me feel resigned to the fact that I'd had enough, but
No more snacks.
He looked shocked and then began to glare at Rick.
Rick, in fact, was being lectured by Amy, Karina and the others.
Then a faint voice came out.
"Oh, that's Temma? That monster rumored to be...
I heard the unheard of thing.
I slowly moved closer to Rick.
Can you elaborate on that?
I smiled (...) and called out to him.
Just as Rick was turning his back to me, he was quite surprised to be spoken to so suddenly.
Even funnier, I was smiling and talking to him, but Amy and the others, including Rick, seemed frightened as well.
'Eh, uh, well...'
Yeah, it's hard to talk about it as it is.
Then I snapped my fingers. With a snap, the ice wrapped around Rick's body shattered all at once.
Incidentally, the act of snapping my fingers has no meaning.......I just did it because I thought it would be cool.
I was free, but Rick was slumped on the spot and wouldn't get up.
So I crouched down so that I could make eye contact with Rick.
So, tell me more about that rumor you heard earlier.
I tried to sound as gentle as possible, but Rick, who looked pale, didn't answer.
I was trying to figure out what was going on.
"Whoa, what's up, Tenma? Has Rick done something wrong?
Jin called out from behind him. In addition to the djinn, the members of the Sword of Dawn were all present.
Rick's complexion improved at the appearance of the djinn and the others.
''No, for some reason I heard that rumors are circulating that I'm a monster, so I was just trying to talk to Rick-san for a moment.
Those words.
Oh, I was in a hurry. Sorry, Temma!
Jin was about to raise his hand to leave, but then he said, "Bye.
Oh, could that be the one you and Jin have been telling everyone about?
And the noblewoman, who didn't read the air, asked the djinn and the others to check it out.
At that moment, the three of them, except for Leena, tried to flee in unison.
I'm coming to you!
As soon as I captured the djinn and the others with my earth magic, I summoned three golems at the same time.
The djinn were carried by the golems with their bodies hardened like minnows by my magic.
Not only Emilie and the others, but also the adventurers on the road rolled their eyes at this event.
''Well, let's hear the story, shall we?''
Then he buried the three of them in the yard with only their heads out... This would be perfect to accompany them with a blade-pulled saw, he thought back to a cartoon he'd seen in a previous life.
'Wait a minute! There's a reason for this!
So, first things first, you need to calm down!
'Yes! Listen to me first!
Jin, Garratt, and Menace try to make excuses in that order.
Well, I'm not a demon either.......so I'll listen to them first.
''Actually.........''
It was all Jin's idea!
Yes, Jin was trying to seduce us!
Wait a minute, boys!
Interrupting Jin's speech, Garratt said that Jin was the main culprit, and Menace followed suit.
'I'm thinking of all of you! And even you guys, Temma is in trouble, if you mess with that guy, he'll turn you into ground meat without mercy. Even the nobles in Gunjo City bowed their heads, what did you say!
Apparently, each of them tailed off as they pleased.
I smiled and........
"Stan,
An electric current was sent through the three of them.
If this had been an anime I had seen in reruns as a child in a previous life, the three of them would have seen their bodies transparent, their bones visible, and they would have been burnt black and spewing smoke.
Thinking about that, I punished them to the extent that they wouldn't die or have any aftereffects.
The next day, this news spread rapidly among adventurers, and those who knew about the Sword of Dawn feared that the rumors were true.
I turned to Rick, leaving the three of them limping with only their heads sticking out of the ground.
'It's a pleasure to meet you, Rick. My name is Temma, and I've been working with you here for a while now. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future. I look forward to working with you in the future.
'Oh, yeah...'
I greeted him politely, but he didn't respond well. He must be tired from hiding in the dungeon.
With that in mind, I handed him a box of assorted hand-made potions (5 strength recovery potions, 5 magic potions and 5 wound potions) as a sign of closeness.
''Ah, thank you... by the way, Djinn and the others...''
Oh, it's okay. I'm not dead!
I said that in a cheerful voice, and then I just said, "Oh, I see," and pulled up with Amy and the others to my house.
It was quiet, as if they were all tired, and I thought to myself
'Speaking of which, Leena, I'm going to make you a cup of tea. I'll get you some tea, though.
I called out to Leena, who was poking at Jin and the others to see what was going on.
I'm in for a treat!
Then he ran over to me.
I took out four servings of the snacks I had saved for myself and made a cup of tea for each of us.
Speaking of which, what's the name of that candy?
I forgot to explain the sweets, so I put the tea in front of Leena and then
The square one is the sponge cake and the one in the cup is the chiffon cake.
I told him. However, the chiffon cake in front of me had been slightly modified and served with whipped cream and fruit.
The fruits are strawberries, grapes, and oranges. Because the cream was sweet, I made the tea a little more astringent.
'Let's have it!'
Despite the calls, the way she ate was beautiful. As expected of a noblewoman, her eating pace was fast, and by the time I finished half of the sponge cake, she had already finished the sponge cake and had started on the chiffon cake.
And even faster than Leena was Shiroumaru. Shiroumaru was biting almost entirely and swallowing it without chewing as far as he could.
In contrast, Surarin was eating slowly as if he were savoring it. Moreover, he dexterously stretched out a part of his body like a tentacle, cut it into small pieces with a fork, and then cut it into his mouth? The body? I don't know if Slarin has taste buds or not, but I don't know what they are.
Anyway, Slarin was the prettiest eater out of all of these... even though he's a slime...
After that, he talked with Leena at random.
For some reason, Slarin had gone outside a few times in the middle of it. Well, he was back in a few minutes, so it didn't really bother me.
I'd been talking to Leena for about an hour.
Speaking of which, I think it's time for me to go home for dinner.
As she said this, she had a container of whipped cream firmly in her hand.
As soon as I saw her off to the door.
Kyaaaah!
Leena's screams echoed.
What's going on! And when I walked outside, I found the djinn limping out of the ground with their faces in the air.
'Oh shit! I forgot!
I hurriedly checked their digging condition, but all three of them seemed to be just unconscious.
It was then that I realized that the reason Slarin was out there while casting a recovery spell on the three of them was to check on them.
As soon as he dug up the three of them.
Ummmmm...
The first thing Jin noticed. It seems that the recovery magic worked.
"Hey, why am I sleeping here?
When I muttered that, Garratt and Menace also opened their eyes.
All three of them seemed to have unclear memories, but they faintly remembered that I had been hit by magic.
So I quickly discussed it with Leena with my eyes.
You all right? I didn't think you'd pass out like that!
'Yes. I'm sure he was just tired from the dungeon!
I spoke up quickly. The three of them looked at each other curiously.
'Good for you, Leena. The three of you should wake up (...) soon!
'That's right, Mr Temma! I'm glad I noticed it right away!
And so on and so forth. In truth, we left them buried outside for less than two hours, but the three of us were convinced (or let them) that's how it should be.
'It's almost dinner, isn't it? We've got to get going or we'll run out!
The three of them seemed uncomfortable with those words.
'I'm already starving! Let's get going! Thank you for the candy, Temma.
The three of them were swept away by Leena's momentum and went to dinner.
But a few days after this, when the other adventurers told them the truth, the three of them complained, but
'I was hurt when you called me a monster...'
And when I flashed a physical attack in addition to the mental attack (like, "I'm going to flail like a monster here!"), the three of them apologized with tremendous force.
From this point onwards, there was an added rumor that if you put up a fight with me, you would be buried in the ground and trained to become a servant.
