「Well then, the training is over. Everyone, please gather」
After the battle-like match with Eric is over and when we are having a short break, Elna-kaasan calls out for us to gather. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Immediately after, everyone - who has been practicing with their magic themselves - quickly stopped what they were doing and ran off toward Elna-kaasan.
Honestly, I don’t want to stand up, but strength suddenly appear out of nowhere as soon as I heard the words ‘training is over’.
I manage to raise my heavy butt and head to the place where everyone gathered.
Unfortunately, the place where we gather this time is not in the shade, but under the sun.
Maybe, she wants to demonstrate specific magic so we need to gather in a wide open space.
Since Elna-kaasan and I have similar thought patterns at times like this, I’m sure it must be so.
When everyone has lined up in front of Elna-kaasan, she clears her throat 「Ahem」 as if to adjust herself.
「Yes, good work today. You have sword training in the morning, then magic training in the afternoon so it must have been tough for you all, but everyone did a good job」
If you know that it’s tough for us, I think it would be nice if you could shorten our schedule a little.
More specifically, resting or having similar magic training in the morning would be good.
I wouldn’t become so tired if it were like that.
I ignore Elna-kaasan’s starting speech while I’m thinking such a thing in my mind.
「Now then, let’s move on to a general view of each of you. First is Luna-san」
「……yes」
「Luna-san, you grasped the basics of magic, but you still can’t grasp your own image of the magic due to the rough basics. But, Al seemed to have taught you about it and you were able to compress Earth bullets a bit」
「……it’s all thanks to Elna-sama and Al-kun」
You know, when you say it directly like this, it makes me become a little embarrassed.
「After this, if you circulate your magic power every day and also increase your control over your magic power, I think you will be able to use your magic more smoothly. You were able to use magic even in a fight, so keep up the good work」
「……yes, I’ll do my best」
Un un, it looks like Luna-san has the most accomplishment in magic out of everyone here, so I have a feeling that she’s going to grow even more if she continues like this. Her swordsmanship and taijutsu are great, she’s going to become a well-balanced Magic Swordsman who fights while being good at Earth magic in the future. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
I wonder if an ordinary person can win against her if she has no gaps in her swordsmanship, taijutsu, or even magic? Once again, I felt like Eleonora-neesan’s friend is an amazing person.
「Next is Eleonora」
「Yes!」
「Despite the fact that you’re good at circulating your magic power for internal-type magic and use magic like Body Strengthening magic, it looks like you are weak in release-type magic. It looks like you managed to improve your fireball, but you still have a lot to be done about your controlling scale and defense magic」
「……yes」
Ooh, as expected from her to comment on someone in her family, she’s slightly strict toward her. Still, the next moment, Elna-kaasan’s expression softens. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「But, it’s a big step forward for Eleonora - who is not good at magic - to get a hold of a single magic properly. Please increase the magic you can use from now on little by little as you are now」
「Yes!」
Indeed, it’s a fact that she has acquired an effective means of attack using magic now.
The fireball she threw back then, was unreasonable but it had quite the power in it, and there was no problem with her control.
Though it doesn’t have much applicability, it would be enough to use as a simple magic attack.
「As far as a magic battle is concerned, you just press forward a little thoughtlessly. In a situation where you fought an opponent who aims at your weak points like Al and is good at it, it’s better to look at your current situation, and acts while guessing what your opponent’s intention is, okay」
Elna-kaasan advises her while sending a fleeting glance my way.
I understand that I, myself am that type of an ‘opponent’, but it makes me feel somewhat complicated when you say it to me face to face that aims at my opponent’s weak points like this.
「That’s cause you’re one cunning guy」
「Say that I’m clever instead」
I quickly object to the words Eric whispered to me. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
It looks like, he’s still holding a grudge that he was being beaten thoroughly with magic before.
I felt pity at the end since I thought I’ve overdone it and so I just dragged it out for a bit more, but I should have buried him underground up to his neck back there.
As I was thinking about such a thing, Elna-kaasan finishes giving advice to Eleonora-neesan, and has now moved on to Sylvio-niisan.
「Sylvio....you are strangely good at defensive magic, huh? Though if you can also use attack magic flawlessly like that I think you can greatly improve your balance ......」
Sylvio-niisan was strangely only skilled in defense magic.
Whether when it’s handling his shield as he’s using his swordsmanship or using the sword to defend himself, in the end, Sylvio-niisan has a talent in defense, isn’t he?
Using Wind magic to manipulate the wind and creating a Barrier of Wind magic is quite difficult, so it must be true. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Yo, Sylvio Barrier」
「There is no magic with that kind of name, you know」
「Sylvio Barrier, Sylvio Bash, what are those?」
「……I’m also curious about that」
Hearing my exchange with Sylvio-niisan, Eric and Luna-san asks, maybe they were strangely curious.
「Fufufu, those are――buuh」
「You don’t have to tell them!」
When I was about to pridefully tell them about it, Sylvio-niisan covered my mouth with his hand.
Guess he’ll sulk if I tell them here now. Let’s secretly tell Eric if he asked again later.
「All right there, I’m still in the middle of talking you know」
While I’m thinking about that kind of thing, Elna-kaasan clapped her hands and said that.
Immediately after, everyone who had been moving and talking without permission quickly return to their previous place.
The way Elna-kaasan speaks, it’s softer than Nord-tousan or Egar-san so it makes us stop paying careful attention to it. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Sylvio’s assignment from now on is to be able to cast attack magic smoothly. Wind magic is more delicate and difficult compared to other magic, so you should consciously feel the air and wind flowing around you on a daily basis」
「Ye, yes, I will also work hard on my attack magic!」
After Sylvio-niisan answered in high spirits, Elna-kaasan turns her gaze toward Eric next.
Then, Eric straightened his body with a snap as he stood there straight up.
「As for Eric-kun....」
「Yes!」
He’s quick to reply.
Looking at such Eric, Elna-kaasan says, as if to warn him kindly,
「Work hard from the basics, all right. First of all, you have to circulate your magic power and smoothen the handling of your magic power. And once you are able to do that, you learn how to use magic one by one, okay」
「Y, yes……」
It’s precisely because those words were said kindly to him that it looked like it pierce his heart the most.
Unable to just Eric like that, Elna-kaasan stroked Eric’s head gently.
「Relax your shoulder and enjoy using magic with more ease, all right」
「Yes!」
Oi, why are you mooning over someone else’s mother like that? Wasn’t Alecia-san your out-of-league girl?
When I quietly stare at him, Eric feigned ignorance. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
When I unconsciously feel surprised at his action, Elna-kaasan turned her gaze to me next.
Ooh, so next is me, huh? I’m a little nervous about what she’s going to say.
「Next is Al, but as to be expected from someone whose strong point is magic, you mostly do the basics. In regard to that, I don’t have much to say about it」
「Thank you very much」
Fufufu, being praised by a magician on Elna-kaasan’s level is a truly delightful feeling.
「Your magic power is also abundant, and you don’t rest on your laurels and use rough magic. However, I think it’s probably because you can use most magic thoughtlessly with your magic power that I feel you are lacking in terms of coming up with fine ideas or ideas to supplement your magic」
「What do you mean by ‘ideas to supplement’ my magic?」
I wonder if the movement magic with sand and sand surfing is considered lacking?
Just when I’m thinking about it in doubt, Elna-kaasan cast Water magic and make the water drift around her in a current.
「For example, if, an enemy attacks Al in a situation where Water magic can be used effectively, what will you do?」
「Hmーm, I can blow them off using the mass of water to make them lose consciousness or stick a water ball to their head to suffocate them」
The moment I say that, the nearby Eleonora-neesan, Luna-san, and Eric reacted while being startled.
「W, when you aimed at my face with the water balls, so that was your true intention?」
「……that was dangerous」
What are you talking about now, it’s natural to come up with this sort of thought when you use Water magic, right? www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「That’s right. Since Al has that much magic power, you might come up with that. But, since I don’t have that much magic power, I will conserve my magic power and neutralize my opponent in a less troublesome manner」
「In a less troublesome manner? I’m very interested in that」
I think that what I came up with was already quite an easy method to deal with the opponent, but I’m interested if there’s an easier method.
When I ask her out of curiosity, Elna-kaasan takes out a bottle from her breast pocket.
「It’s going to become a little dangerous, but if it’s me, I’m mixing some anesthetic to the Water magic」
「Ohh! I see! So you mix it into the Water magic and then control it at will, and it will then paralyze and incapacitate the opponent just by hitting them with it!」
「Yes, it’s also not a bad idea if you can use Lightning magic and use that, but it’s also possible to adjust it with this method and since this is colorless and transparent, it is also possible to catch the enemy off guard by saying this is just water」
Ooh, I always have some amount of respect for her as my mother normally, but I feel like I never have as much respect as I do today.
Elna-kaasan, you are really a genius, aren’t you?
I have more magic power compared to other people. It’s so much so that I felt like I can’t completely use them all.
I guess it’s because of the amount of my magic power that somehow, the manner in which I use my magic might have become sloppy.
Making it easier without a fuss, and if it’s not enough then I need to stop making up for it with magic power, and so my magic may widen if I can come up with a method to somehow mix it up with other things.
「……in other words, when I meet an opponent like Eleonora-neesan, I can make them unable to hold their sword properly if I mix water with oil or something」
「Yes, it will become the bane of swordsman」
Fufufu, I acquired another method to defend myself against Eleonora-neesan.
「Elna, Al, everyone is pulling back from you, you know」
As Elna-kaasan and I are smiling at each other, Nord-tousan - who was unable to keep looking at us like that - interjects.
Looking at our surroundings, all four of them were frightened, even more so compared to when I was trying to suffocate them with my water balls.
And toward those four people, Nord-tousan speaks to them. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Well, this is also the reason why, skilled magicians will be able to attack you in an unexpected manner, so don’t underestimate them, all right?」
「「「Yes!」」」
I felt that Nord-tousan’s final closing words resonate the most with everyone.
「Well then, the training is over. Everyone, please gather」
After the battle-like match with Eric is over and when we are having a short break, Elna-kaasan calls out for us to gather. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
