Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Episode Six: Herman's Special Training

Since Hellman has worn a loyalty bracelet, I would just like to start special training.

Today, I want Hellman to get the magic manipulation before I go home.

If you can manipulate magic, you'll be able to train one person.

"Well, then, Hellman, I'll start my magic training."

"Yes! Nice to meet you"

"First I want to make sure, can Herman feel his magic?

"Uh..."

Herman turned down and shut up.

"You don't have to be depressed like that. You don't seem to feel it, do you?

"... Yes"

"Don't be depressed, I just checked."

That's what I said, I slapped Hellman in the back with a pomp.

"... ok"

"Yeah, and I'll teach you now, so don't worry about it."

"Is that true? Thanks!

Oh, you're feeling better.

"No, then don't move a bit"

That's what I say, I turn my hand toward Hellman.

"Yes, sir"

Hellman, with his hands turned, became upright immobile.

"You don't have to be so nervous. Relax."

With that said, look for Herman's magic.

I found it!

It's small, but it does.

I'll just try to move that a little bit.

"How do you feel? Did you feel anything?

"Yes, I felt something move around the bottom of the heso"

"That was good. That's magic."

"Huh? This is magic......?

"Yes, try to be conscious of moving this hard"

"I'll try!

Hellman closed his eyes either to be aware of the magic.

You're so focused...

... after a while.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't."

"I knew it? Then I'll only move you for a little while, so try to get the hang of it."

"Thank you. I'll definitely grab it."

Then I kept moving Hellman's magic.

I've been moving it for a while and noticed that Hellman didn't react as weird as Shelley.

Does Shelly alone feel something?

Next time, we'll look into it......

And after about 10 minutes,

"Master, I think I can probably do it now!

Hellman seems to have grabbed something for me.

"Really? Well, give it a try."

"Yes."

Hellman closed his eyes again when he replied.

Then I felt Herman's magic move just a little bit.

"Yay - you did it!

"So, it's done..."

"All right, from now on, we just have to work hard!

"What do you do?

"It's easy. Just keep moving your magic."

"Do you keep moving..."

"Yes, because if you keep moving, the magic keeps increasing"

"Is it true!?

Oh, you're eating up great.

"It's true. It just depends on Hellman's efforts."

"Depends on your efforts... I'll do my best"

That's very motivating.

"Yeah. The goal from now on is to be able to move magic all over your body. When we can do this, we'll move on to the next step."

"Next Step..."

"Yes. Look forward to the next stage (step) when the magic will grow rapidly."

"Suddenly...... I will do my best to die!

"Oh, I'm here for you."

I didn't know... what Hellman meant.

Four Days Later

"Master! You've achieved your goal!

Hellman came running over when I got to school in the morning.

"What? You're lying, aren't you? 'Cause... it's only four days, right?

"It's true! As my master told me, I worked hard to die."

"Is that...? Me, did I say hang in there willing to die...?

I don't remember that...

"Yes, he said it depended on effort."

"What happens when you're willing to die and you work hard..."

No, you said... 'I'll do my best to die'.

"I did my best. I didn't sleep for four days, and I kept moving my magic."

"Ha!? You haven't slept a day since?

You're really dying!

"Yes, because of magic."

And the herman I'm talking about... he looked so tired.

"Well... a lot more magic, right?

I appraised Hellman.

Hey! Go home and sleep now!

"What a magic 970!

"That amount is amazing in four days..."

"Yes, a great sense of accomplishment"

"Good for you. Then I'll teach you the next step."

"Is that it? What do you do today and tomorrow?

"Go to sleep! Now!"

"Are you just going to bed?

"Yes. Resting your body! Because if you don't rest, you won't move on to the next stage."

"Wow, I get it"

Really... take care of your body.

(Two days later)

"Hellman, are you well rested?

"Of course! I will never break my master's words. Yesterday and all yesterday, when I got home from school, I slept all the time."

"Well... I'll tell you what's next."

It's something to be afraid of being too submissive...

"Yes, thank you"

"First, use this magical stone without any magic"

That's what I said, I gave Hellman an an empty demon stone.

"What do you do with this demon stone?

"Pour magic into this magic stone."

"What do you mean?

"Briefly, try to use magic manipulation to move magic from hand to stone"

"In the meantime, I'll try"

Herman held the Demon Stone with both hands and closed his eyes.

Then a while later...

The demon stone only shined out a little.

"Master! I... I... could shine the Demon Stone!

Hellman seemed so happy.

"Yeah. Like I said, you can do it now, right?

"Yes! If I continue with this, can I make an awesome shiny demon stone like a master?

"I can do it. It just takes so much effort."

And I said... it would take years to get the same shine as me...

"That's right...... But I'll try my best from now on!

"Good luck...... oh, but you don't have to sleep to do it. 'Cause I'm gonna be mad when I come to school tomorrow for lack of sleep."

"Wow, I get it"

Herman turned away.

"You sure you got it? It's a promise, isn't it?

"Yes. I promise."

"Well, when you have some more magic, you'll move on to the next stage."

"Do you still have the next step?

"I do. Whatever you do, have fun later."

"Wow, I get it. I'll do my best."

"So you sleep properly!

Yeah, probably not.

About a week later.

In the morning, when I went into the classroom,

"Master!"

Hellman came running over.

"Duh, what's wrong?

"Look at this because the amount of magic has increased so much!

That said, Hellman has shown his status card.

"Already? Not too soon?

I picked up the card and checked.

You can't see it.

Title

You can't see it.

It's been a shitty amount......

This means the loyalty bracelet is working, right?

But this...

"Hellman... were you asleep properly?

"Yes. Of course....."

"Really?"

I peek into Hellman's face.

Herman let his eyes swim.

"Uh... hey, I slept about four hours a day properly!

"Huh - I can't even have a short sleep from now on!

"Yes, sir"

"As punishment, I will teach you the next stage (step) in a week"

"Uh, do something about it, please."

Herman came desperately clinging.

"No! And sleeping well this past week. Because I won't tell you if I can't do that. Because even if you're deluded, you know what I mean?

I have an appraisal.

"Wow, I get it...... I'm going to bed"

"Because this is definitely the time, right?

And a week later.

"As promised, after a week, I'd like to tell you the next stage (steps)"

And I declared it in the garden of the house.

"Finally...... what are you going to tell me?

Herman was excited to return to his healthy body as usual.

"No attributes. Magic."

"Huh? Is it attributeless magic!?

"Yes, by remembering the magic manipulation and adding more magic, you can acquire unattributed magic."

"Is that true? I do that unattributed magic..."

I was having a hard time saying I didn't believe you.

"I knew you'd be happy to get unattributed magic"

"Of course I'm glad. Because it was a dream."

"That's good to hear. You can already use attributeless magic."

"Is that true?

"Yeah. It's just that angel (...) i (...) ko (...) su (...) needs effort though"

"If it's for unattributed magic, I'll endure any trials."

Yeah, I think Herman can stand it.

"Then try running with an image that strengthens your body"

"Image......?

Herman tilted his neck.

"To put it in more detail… the image of moving magic to where you want to enhance it"

"Yeah - I'll just do it"

That said, Herman runs out.

For a while, keep running at normal speed......

Finally, you got the hang of it. I could use unattributed magic on my legs.

And... Hellman fell.

"Oh, you succeeded in unattributed magic."

"Huh? Is that a success now?

"Does it feel like I could use it more than success?

"Really...... but now I think I got the hang of it"

"That was good. But you can't strengthen your whole body."

"Duh, why not!?

I knew you should have used it all over your body......

"The reason is that it consumes magic in vain, and it's better to strengthen only where you need it."

"I see..."

"So you said it would take hard work to use it."

"Oh, right... I decided to spare no effort for unattributed magic."

Herman gripped his fist.

"Sleep tight, huh?

"Yes, of course."

With that said, Hellman doesn't try to keep an eye on me.

I can't stand this...

And from the next day.

Hellman came to school looking sleepless again...
