It's just now, but it's a magical story

***---***

Having finished strengthening the three, we decided to go through the forest and head for town.

Beyond the forest is a fortified city called Volzard.

Isn't it cool like a fort city? It feels like a different world.

[ By the way, what was Kent-sama going to Volzard for? Entering the forest alone is a good way to suicide. ]

"Eh? Ah ... it was a difficult task to go through the forest alone ... damn it, that villainous princess."

I told Reinhardt-san that I was summoned from another world and that my magical power judgment was a mistake, so I was given the last chance to go through the forest alone.

"But that, it's just a good way to get rid of a nuisance right?"

[ Yes, I can only think of it that way, because this forest is a dangerous forest that is difficult to traverse unless it is with a group of escorts. ]

According to Reinhardt-san, this forest is a forest that has spread due to the outbreak of Trent, a monster that mimics trees.

The number of monsters is large just because of the spread, and it seems that it was quite difficult to open up the forest and regain the original path.

Still, it seems like human beings have regained their way.

"Then, if I go through this dangerous forest alone, I wonder if my value will be reviewed."

[ Of course, such a thing as traversing this forest alone is impossible unless you are a first-class adventurer or a master-class martial artist, if it's heard that you can use both dark and light magic it should be correct to receive treatment that is no lower ]

"Oh ... my time is finally here."

I can't help but be excited about the situation that every Chuunibyo dreams of getting a cheat ability in a different world.

The excitement of the three of them seems to be conveyed through the bond as their summoner.

But wait a minute, if you go on with it like this, you're assured to make a painful mistake.

Instead of rushing here, let's stop and think about it.

And to think, you need the information to make a decision.

So, I decided to have Reinhardt-san and the others teach me about this world.

[ As expected, Kent-sama, it's wonderful that even if you get a unique power, you won't become arrogant. ]

"No, it's a power, I'm not good at it, and I don't think it was good to handle after being summoned."

After all, you can choose between obedience and death, and if you come back without any preparation, there is no doubt that a terrible situation awaits you.

Oh, I'm worried if the chariman is okay, My Sweet Heart.

Speaking of which, it's completely new, but it seems that the fact that I can understand these words is due to the summoning.

I mean, I can only explain it, I asked Reinhardt-san to write the letters, but I can read it, and if I want to write it, I can write it.

Seriously, the person who made this summoning technique is amazing.

According to Reinhardt-san and the others, we are in a royal country called the Kingdom of Reisenburg.

Come to think of it, that villainous princess was calling herself with such a family name.

By the way, I asked Reinhardt-san and the others about the name of the princess named Camilla, but they didn't seem to know it.

It's been a long time since Reinhardt-san and his friends died, and since they haven't left the forest during that time, it's only natural that they don't know.

"By the way, we were summoned as soldiers, but what they need soldiers for is to fight somewhere?"

[ If you think in common sense, that's the case, but if you want to gather troops for war, you usually put them near the battlefield, not here in the kingdom, rather near the center, away from the border with other countries. ]

"Well, there's no need to call nearly 200 people far from the battlefield."

[ If you think so, the third princess may be trying to seize the throne by force. ]

"Ah ... I see, it's a coup d'etat, so to speak, that villainous princess seemed to have a strong desire for power ... That means we were involved in a power struggle over the throne?"

[ I think that's likely. ]

"Hmm ..."

This seems to be a mess if you don't think about your way.

The villainous princess said that if you cooperate you'd be rewarded ... but if the coup fails, the execution course will be straightforward.

It seems that it is better not to go back to the coup.

When it comes to coup d'etat, you can't talk about it unless you know the current state of the country.

Therefore, I decided to think about where to go after going to Volzard and investigating the current situation.

The next thing I need to know now is knowledge about magic.

So, I immediately asked Reinhardt-san and the others about magic, and although they all have basic knoledge, they don't seem to be good at it.

[ I'm sorry, Kent-sama, we're all knight-types, and don't have much knowledge about magic. ]

"Hmm? What does that mean?"

According to Reinhardt-san, magic has two major categories in addition to the six attributes.

One is a so-called magical release-type caster, and the other is a circulatory knight who strengthens the body. Reinhardt-san and the others are knights who are good at the circulatory system.

[ Most people are usually biased towards one or the other, few can master both magics, and everyone is heavily used in the country. ]

"Well, then I'm a caster type."

[ Probably so, but if you have the outstanding talent of Kent-sama, you may be able to master the magic of the circulatory system. ]

"It's better to protect yourself, isn't it?"

[ That's right, but in the case of Kent-sama, we'll protect you, so don't worry. ]

"Certainly ... ..."

Since there are skeleton knights with such a vicious performance, a half-hearted attack will not reach me.

But there's one thing that really bothers me.

"Ah, is it okay to stay with everyone in the city?"

[ Well, that is ... ]

Oh, it looks like it's no good.

Thinking normally, no matter if it's your summon, from the perspective of others, the skeleton is like a monster.

You can't just walk around the city oopenly in the daytime.

"Hmm ... I'm in trouble, I don't hink I can do anything by myself even after I get out of the forest ..."

I'm not proud of it, but even though I've been a kid since I was in Japan, I'm just a kid who doesn't know the common sense in another world, and I have no confidence that I can cross the world without Reinhardt-san.

When Basten-san heard that I was in trouble about what happened he said.

[ I've heard that dark mages can hide familiars in their shadows and summon them from a distance using shadows, like Kent-sama. Isn't it possible if you are talented? ]

"Well, can you do that with darkness magic? But I still don't know how to use magic ..."

When I said that, all three put their hands in front of their faces, waving them as if to say no, no, and Reinhardt-san said on behalf of them.

[ Kent-sama, if you unknowingly summon us and strengthen us to look like this, and say that, mages all over the world will swear at you. ]

"Hmm ... I can't say that ..."

From the three people's point of view, my magic seems to be out of the ordinary.

Normally, it seems that magic is activated only after properly chanting the spell while imagining the activation in the head.

In my case, I can use magic just by imagining it.

[ If you say that you are using magic just by imagining it, why not try summoning us with shadows that way? ]

"Oh, that's right, if you don't know, you can try it."

I decided to take Basten-san's suggestion and try what I could do.

So I tried it, but it's amazing, it's a cheat, a cheat.

I was able to summon everyone from the shadows, and I was able to move everyone along the shadows.

Not only that, I was able to sink myself in the shadow and move along the shadows.

Even if I'm attacked by something and think it's dangerous, if I escape into the shadow, there's no problem.

Hyahha! Hur, hey! You know.

The dark mage seems to be able to interfere with another space called the shadow, and could even create his own space and put things in it.

In this way, it's okay if everyone stays in the shadows after entering the city.

Originally, the conversation with everyone was basically telepathy, so it is convenient to be able to do it without problems even when everyone is in the shadow.

As expected, the rare darkness attribute, it's cheat, I'll fall in love with you.

There is no doubt that this is the arrival of the popular period.

When you can use some magic of darkness, you will be worried about another attribute, light.

"I've got a feel for the magic of darkness, but what kind of magic is there of light magic?"

[ Light attributes are magic of healing and exorcism. ]

"Well, I feels like I've got the image, but is the magic of exorcism effective for any monster?"

[ Well, I'm not familiar with it, but I hear that powerful light magic is effective against any monster, but it's usually strong against undead monsters, that is, we skeletons, zombies, and other monsters. It seems to be effective. ]

Yeah, that's exactly what I had imagined.

When I sent Reinhardt-san's friends, I think it was light magic that I used unconsciously.

Also, I think it's the same with regenerating my body that was eaten by goblins.

"If you can use the magic of light attributes, can even dead people be revived?"

[ I heard that it is impossible, it seems that a brilliant healer can save the life of a dying person, but it is impossible to revive a completely dead person. ]

"Well, from that point on, it's the realm of necromancy."

[ Well, but if you're Kent-sama who can use the magic of both attributes, the boundary may be quite vague. ]

"I see ..."

After that, in order to actually try the magic of the light attribute, I imagined that my hand was slightly hurt and the wound healed while covering it with the palm of my hand, the wound that was bleeding disappeared without a trace. I was surprised.

However, when I think about it, it's not surprising considering my intestines were pulled out and eaten, but I was perfectly fine without any scratches, so it's not surprising that these scratches disappeared.

[ Kent-sama uses the magic of darkness, in a crazy way ... The light attribute is also crazy ... ]

"Is that so?"

According to Fred, it is not uncommon for healing magic to heal cuts, but it seems that he has never seen healing magic that recovers the internal organs and even regenerates from a state where it is eaten or not working.

Reinhardt-san and Basten-san are both nodding.

It seems that the magic of the light attribute is not suitable for attacks except for the undead type, and in most cases, the magician of the light attribute supports behind rather than fighting on the front line.

It seems that the magician of the light attribute itself is rare, and it is meaningless if the recovery role is done first.

However, for me who lived in modern Japan, the attack by light is the laser, and the ray weapon in the animation is a flower-shaped existence.

That's why I tried various things to see if it could be realized.

First of all, when I started by emitting light, Reinhardt-san's group who were exposed to the light were damaged with the feeling that they were sick, and they hurriedly evactuated to the shadow.

It was a waste of time to strengthen for escort, dangerous, dangerous.

The next time I strengthened the light, my eyes were blinded ... and I thought I had cast the spell of destruction.

I wonder if ray weapons are impossible with magic.

In terms of image, it feels like converting magical power into light, pouring magical power into it, strengthening it, compressing it, setting the direction and firing it, but when then magical power is poured, my eyes are, my eyes are ...

Even so, I couldn't give up on the ray weapon, and I continued trial and error so if Reinhardt-san and the others left me unattended, I could have an attack method.

In short, I should have replaced the procedure.

It compresses a large amount of magical power and converts it into light at the moment of deciding the direction adn shooting.

Even so, it is impossible to use a high-power laser that makes a thick line like the one that appears in robot animation, so it feels like a 5mm hole can be made in a tree with a flash of light. It's depressing.

Moreover, it takes about 30 seconds to activate it, but it seems to be very powerful if you can shoot instantly.

Because I hit it when I thought I could see it, so while doing it myself, the magic of the light attribute is also cheat.

Basically, magic is a cheat, isn't it?

That, but is it commonplace in this world?

It doesn't matter, but what makes you hungry when you use magic?

[ It's because it uses the magician's internal energy to convert the mana that exists in the air into the magical power of the attribute. ]

"I see, is the magic of the circulatory system used by Reinhardt-san and the others the same?"

[ You're right, and the higher the conversion efficiencey, the stronger the magic you can use. ]

"I see, I see, that 'Evil Eye Crystal' looks at the attributes and their efficiences."

After rounding up the magical practice of light attributes, I filled my stomach with fruits again.

It's delicious, but I'm getting tired of it.

Oh, I want to eat white rice and miso soup.
