「Alfried! Forgive me!」
Eric was thrown into the sea by the Earth's magic running machine, he shouted so with wakame1 on her head. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
It’s quite scary seeing the sight of him bellowing while being covered in slimy, long wakame with his whole body dripping wet like that.
As I was thinking of such a thing, Eric returns as he pushes his way through the water to the beach still with the wakame covering his body. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Of course, that place is still under my domain, so I cast Earth magic once more.
Moreover, this time it’s at a sudden fast speed.
「Nuuaaah!?」
Due to his foothold retreating at a sudden, breakneck speed, Eric’s balance collapsed and he falls on his butt.
「Oooohhh!?」
Helpless, Eric ended up thrown into the sea again.
His figure when he is rolling on the ground to the sea is quite interesting.
「Nuuooooohhhhh!?」
Then, the furious Eric vigorously turn up from the sea again and come running in my direction. I don’t know what he will do if he can approach me, so I cast another Earth magic the moment his foot makes contact with the sand.
「How many times will you do this until you let me pass!」
Immediately after that, Eric dodges by making a big jump to the side.
However, no matter how he tries to dodge, it was all still sand.
Since I felt that it’s gonna be troublesome if he jumped again, I manipulate the sand at a range of about 20 meters around him and moved it toward the sea.
「Nnaaaah!? This is ridiculous!」
Despite being surprised, Eric continued to run frantically so he won’t get caught, but he can’t beat the sand hell that keeps moving as long as my magic power was not used up, so he was sent to the sea along with the mass of sand. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Hum, I might be the strongest as long as I’m on sandy ground.
Though I said that, such a short distance would be able to be crossed by someone like Eleonora-neesan with several steps so it probably won’t work.
Just when I’m considering all that, Eric emerges from the sea again.
His body is covered in sand, perhaps because he was thrown to the sea with a splash along with the mass of sand.
「……what do you think? Do you understand how amazing my magic is now?」
「Kuhh, this is frustrating but I have no choice but to acknowledge its usefulness」
I thought that he will get angry and won’t learn his lesson again, but he don’t show such behavior in the slightest as Eric calmly said to me.
And then, he got out of the sea and start walking toward me in silence.
The guy name Eric is someone with high pride, he’s a small-minded guy who will always hold a grudge if something were to be done to him, even if it’s just a trivial matter. Even if for example, the opponent is using unmatchable-like magic, he’s not the type of person who will do something like giving up
「――so, you thought I would say――befooh!」
Fully understanding that, I cast Earth magic the moment Eric approaches.
After Eric’s ankle was grabbed, he fell face-first into the sand.
If it were normal ground then his face will receive a heavy blow from the ground and he became teary-eyed, but we’re on the soft sandy ground right now.
Good grief, do you think a surprise attack of this level can get through? It all starts with Torr and Asmo, then I also cross swords with the Koryatt village’s villagers too, you know.
「Wh, what the heck is it this time――haa!」
He raised his face from the sand, then Eric froze after confirming the true form of the thing grabbing his ankle.
The thing grabbing his ankle, is sand with the shape of an arm, the thing that had become Eric’s trauma.
Eric turns his face to me and says with a trembling voice. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「P, please. Not that, please stop it」
「If you didn’t make a surprise attack before, then I won’t do this you know」
As I mercilessly tell him that, I manipulate the sand arm to pull Eric’s ankle.
Eric tries to hold on to something as his hands move around *batabata* with a panicked expression on his face.
However, his resistance is in vain as the sand continues to slowly drag him to the sea.
「N, nuuooooooohhh! St, sstaahppp! Stop iittt!」
He says with a really panicked expression on his face, but the place where he is being dragged to is a shallow part of the sea though.
◆
When I wash the haggard-looking Eric with Water magic after he was dragged by the arm of sand into the sea, Nord-tousan and Elna-kaasan - followed by Eleonora-neesan - came to me.
I have a bad feeling about this. If you ask me why, it’s because Eleonora-neesan - who is following behind them - looks very happy.
Speaking of the factor that makes Eleonora-neesan delighted despite this being magic training, the magic battle is the only thing that comes to my mind.
「Al, do you have a minute?」
「No」
「Why did you say no when you have not even heard about it」
Elna-kaasan retort when I instantly reject her. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「The problem is not the content of what you are going to say. I’m busy taking care of Eric right now」
「I’m fine, don’t worry about me. You can go do your next training assignment」
The moment I told her that, Eric delivers his piece as though he was aiming for that.
This guy! This will make me unable to decline Elna-kaasan and the others isn’t he?
When I scowl at him while thinking about that kind of thing, Eric headed alone to his seat in the resting area with a slight smile on his face.
What a move from him, after receiving my diligent care. Was that a payback for being tossed to the sea before? As expected from the small-minded guy.
「Okay then, you became free now so it’s fine right」
It looks like I can no longer make an escape.
When I quietly stand there as though resigning to my fate, Nord-tousan opens his mouth and says.
「We are going to have a mock battle of magic after this, so I want Al to also participate, all right?」
「Ehー, everyone?」
「I want to let everyone have a little experience in fighting with magic, so it is everyone」
「Though it’s a mock battle of magic, I guess the ones who can participate in it will be Eleonora, Al, and Luna-san. As for Sylvio and Eric-kun, I think they will be at the level of sending their magic flying at each other」
Maybe, the person with better magic skills after me among the children would be Luna-san. Even if there are limitations in her magic, she has sufficient ability to do what can be called a mock battle.
As for Eleonora-neesan, honestly, she has difficulty in her control and the power of her magic, but her excessive physical ability alone is enough to make up for that.
Certainly, these two should be at a sufficient level to have a mock battle.
Next up is Sylvio-niisan, but perhaps it’s because his attribute is Wind magic so it becomes severe for him in the end.
「Sylvio-niisan can only use Wind Blades as offensive magic after all」
「It doesn’t change the fact that other magic is still dangerous, but letting the children use magic on each other is still dangerous」
That’s cause your arm can be cleanly cut and fly away if you were to be struck by a Wind Blade.
Even if you call it a mock battle, it’s magic you definitely don’t want to be used. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
If you adjust the magic power, it won’t have the power to do just that. You can suppress the extent of the cut, but it seems that he can’t do such a delicate control of magic.
And so, it would be better if he can make other means of attacks like a blast of wind or a tornado, but those magic are very difficult to control and Sylvio-niisan still hasn’t mastered them.
Wind magic requires quite a bit more control over its magic compared to other attributes so it is difficult.
「As for Sylvio, it will be better to have Al as his opponent」
「You’re right」
「No way! I don’t want to be the opponent of someone who uses such dangerous magic!」
Oi oi, what’re you gonna do if my arm or my neck goes flying if I receive a Wind Blade and I died?
「What is the person using more dangerous magic saying now?」
「Hahaha, if it’s Al he will be fine」
Even when I frantically insisted on it, Elna-kaasan and Nord-tousan didn’t take it seriously at all.
Rather, what do you mean by dangerous magic? I don’t think I’ve ever used aggressively difficult magic in front of Elna-kaasan, though.
「Okay then, Eleonora and Al the two of you can please go first, all right」
「Geh」
Such a word reflexively escapes my mouth.
「What do you mean ‘Geh’? Magic is your specialty, isn’t it? I have high expectations for it so please do it seriously, okay」
After Eleonora-neesan said that, she flipped her reddish brown ponytail.
I feel kinda heavy when suddenly being told to be Eleonora-neesan’s opponent.
It’d be great if Eric were to be my first opponent.
I mean, that guy, he’s at the level where he can barely cast his magic so we will be having something like a magic shootout match from afar with a loose assessment of magic if it’s with him.
「Alfried! Forgive me!」
Eric was thrown into the sea by the Earth's magic running machine, he shouted so with wakame1 on her head. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
