A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

In the woods, about a three-minute walk west of the town of Speranza. There were Reurus and Eliza, Sarah and Meer, Neddy, Natalia and Collard, and Vaniel and Tina.

While Reurus had a "neck hunting" sword and dagger, and everyday clothing and light attire, Eliza wore all her protective equipment when working as an adventurer and held a thunderbolt wand in her hand. In addition, Meer was also holding a clasp in the hand of something that was not wearing protective equipment.

Sarah and Neddy are as useless as usual, but Natalia is wearing a combat costume that she wore in the town of Lemona to make it easier to move, and she has her favorite wand in her hand. Collard was wearing a sword, but there was no kind of armor, and Tina was also very lightweight with a light blue kimono.

As usual, Vanille "changed" into a person's appearance and followed the Reurus with a leisurely look at the event.

It's half-armed, but the reason Reurus and the others went all the way into the woods is simple. To check on Eliza's special training as an apprentice in Natalia and on Meer's 'contract' with Reurus.

Rebecca and Chris didn't come back, and Natalia had limited time to spare.

Around the town, about fifty meters from the empty moat, the trees are cut down and turned into plains, but only a few places have turned into plains from the point of view of Baron Amendura's entire territory.

As they continued walking, the trees entered the lush woods, but there were no trees ahead of them, and the plains were wide open.

This is the place where the Reurus stormed and cut dozens of trees when it encountered Kimira before. I chose this place because it's just the right size to move my body.

Tina is with us because if we leave town to Natalia as well as Reurus, we will lose sight of the surveillance. I didn't think Tina would do anything now, but I blamed her for leaving the Gregorians alone in town.

As she moved to the place where the trees were cut in a circle, Natalia took Eliza for a distance and quickly started teaching.

"Phew... I finally got some time, but what do you think? Do you feel like you can use attribute magic other than thunder magic after listening to" my story ”?

"I don't know, I don't know... it's too vague, I don't know."

By mentoring, Eliza also returned to her tone of voice and answered with respect. Natalia smiled bitterly and slapped Eliza on the shoulder.

"Miss... no, I call you Eliza because you teach me, but when you get tough, you fail what works. Do as you normally do."

"Ha, yes... no, umm. I see."

Eliza nodded many times before holding her thunder wand. Natalia narrowed her eyes sharply as she saw Eliza begin to develop her magic.

"That's right... in your case, you used" chanting "and forced lightning magic in the first place. Then try to be aware that it is“ natural ”for you to be able to deal with attribute magic. Not only lightning magic, but also other attribute magic can naturally be used...."

"Uhhhh!

Eliza answered Natalia's words loudly and closed her eyes to focus. Natalia sees it and starts talking with a small, yet soothing voice so as not to disturb Eliza's focus.

"As you know, magic is an interference with the world using magic. The ease of use changes depending on how you are aware of it, and it affects your power. Ah, don't hesitate to focus on the answer."

…………

"Yes, that's a good boy. In your case, you can use" Enhancement ", and even if you need a" chant "or a wand, you can use lightning magic. Now that Slaus has been able to use all sorts of attribute magic," you can do the same ”magic... tell yourself that."

…………

While listening to Natalia's words, Eliza remained focused and focused on her magic.

Because I have seen blood suckers (slaughter) who are superior to themselves use magic many times, there is a slight sensory change compared to the previous one. As she felt it, Eliza buried herself deeply with a little bit of change in her senses.

(It's only natural that you can use class magic other than lightning magic... you can use flame magic, ice magic, wind magic...)

As she told herself, Eliza remembers how Slaus used magic.

Low magic, intermediate magic, and even combined magic. As a wizard, as a bloodsucking species, I vividly recall the magic of Slaus that was dozens of steps away.

There is no shortage of magic because it is connected with Reurus in the "contract". Rather, the more she felt than before, Eliza manipulated her magic, even though she was awkward.

--But if that's all it takes to succeed, it won't be hard.

……………………

Eliza had been concentrating for a few minutes, but she began to sweat on her forehead. Natalia struck her hands unexpectedly as she saw Eliza still trying to stay focused.

"Hmm!? What is it!?

The clanking and the dry sound echoed, and Eliza distracted herself as if she had been poked in the void. And looking at Natalia, Natalia smiled mean.

"It's dangerous to disturb your concentration with this noise. I wasn't using any magic in training right now, but you know what happens when you distract me while I'm trying to shoot some powerful magic?

"Uhh, um... I know."

Eliza wanted to grow stronger, but if she used magic to blow up each ally, she wouldn't be stylish. So when Natalia nods honestly, even though she seems a little dissatisfied, she changes the type of smile and smiles softly.

Then take my staff next. This wand was made by artisans in King's Landing using the wind's "jewels". It's a magic tool that makes wind magic easier to use and also suppresses magic exhaustion. "

While saying so, Natalia handed Eliza her wand. Eliza gave Natalia her wand of thunder, and she gripped Natalia's wand in fear. I heard it was a wonderful item, but I was afraid that Natalia had handed over the “partner” that she would have used for many years.

Is it trusted or expected? Eliza grasped her cane with both hands and concentrated.

(Ah... this wand...)

When I tried to use my magic lightly, my wand responded with a reply. Eliza continued to use her magic to chase back the response and waved gently as her wand urged.

― ― A wave of wind blows to shake the grass and trees.

It was much weaker than the magic it contained, and it was a breeze that could not be used to attack. Still, Eliza was stunned by the ease with which she could use wind magic and dropped her gaze on her own wand.

"... the wand is a magic tool, but even if someone with no talent uses it, wind magic can't be used. Some magic tools work with magic, but the wand is only for those who use wind magic... it's for me to use."

"Only those who can use wind magic...?

Eliza listened to Natalia and murmured.

"Yeah... that means you have the talent to handle wind magic."

Natalia says to affirm Eliza's doubts. After hearing that, Eliza understood over a few seconds.

Y-Yeah...

However!

Eliza tried to raise her voice of joy, but Natalia raised her voice as she tried to block it. Eliza's breathing was disturbed by a serious and overwhelming voice, and her hum and throat rang.

"As it stands, I only have the talent to handle it.” There's no point if you don't train, and if you don't have my wand, you won't be able to use it... understand?

"Ha, yes...."

Understanding Natalia's intentions, Eliza blushed embarrassed. I dazzled at the “hope” of being able to handle wind magic, but that alone makes no sense.

Natalia nodded with a small smile as she shrunk her shoulders.

"Still, if you can handle the wind magic, you'll have a wider fight, even if you're junior. Let's see if we can handle other attribute magic at this rate."

"- Ha!

It was Eliza who glanced at Natalia's words and replied energetically.

And away from Eliza and Natalia, Reurus was facing Meer.

Surrounded by Sarah, Neddy, Collard, Tina, and Vanier.

"... um, why are there so many people on my side?

As soon as Meer asked, Vaniel made fun of her and laughed.

"It's interesting to say that there are people. I'm the Fire Dragon."

"Ah, I am a spirit! Spirit of Fire!

"... and Neddy the Spirit."

Sarah echoed Vaniel's words, and somehow Neddy echoed them. Reurus laughs bitterly when he hears the voices around him.

Tina is a demonic fox too? Sounds like a kid, and it's just me and Mr. Collard. "

"That's right..."

…………

For some reason, Collard answers ambiguously, "What is this guy talking about? Tina silently watched the revulsion.

It was a Reurus who tilted his neck to the reaction, but now he's changing his mind that Meer should be a priority.

"So? Why don't you sign a contract?

"Hmm... I think I feel more magic than ever. And, uh... you know, I'm connected to Reurus, right? Ah, well, it's magic!

Hmm? Ooh.

Reurus also felt that the magic was properly connected in the contract. Therefore, when I nodded back, I saw Meer swinging her cheeks as her face turned red.

"The increase in magic means that the 'strengthening' will also be strengthened... it's an envy for a person who lacks magic."

"Would Mr. Collard like to make a contract?

When Reurus asked the joke mix, Vaniel stuck a nail in her face when she heard it.

"Don't do it. If only one of them makes a" contract "with you, it'll blow up."

The moment he heard it, Collard gently placed his hand on his abdomen and instantly distance himself from Reurus.

"You're not gonna do this? Never, ever stop.

"Either way, the 'contract' will not be concluded unless you accept it. So rest assured."

Apparently, there is no rough business of unilaterally entering into a "contract" with a hostile opponent and causing it to blow up. Reurus turned to Meer with that in mind.

"How about something other than magic? Anything unusual?

"Hmm... you feel like you can do something?

"What do you mean?

Meer swings the hammer all the way before tilting her neck. Compared to the previous period, the speed of shaking was faster, and the wind-cutting sound was also changing to a strong one.

"I don't know because I've only used 'Enhancement' before... maybe attribute magic...?

Meer appreciates the changes that have taken place in her body. Whether it was originally cultivated due to lack of magic, or whether it was changed by the "contract" with Reurus, the “feeling” is changing.

Vanille looks deeply strange when she hears the words of Meer.

"Hmm? Speaking of pureblooded dwarfs, when it comes to attribute magic, it's called earth magic, isn't it?

"... what?

Reurus unexpectedly turned his face to Vanille, who mentioned the discomfort that Mea was experiencing. Then Vanille wonders why she can look at her face like that.

"What are you... if you're not listening to me at all? Or have you forgotten what you heard? I've told you so many times that Dwarves are" the people of the earth ”...."

That said, Vanille turned a blind eye.
