Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Two days have passed since I woke up.

A lot of people came to see me yesterday when they heard I woke up.

Nothing, I could have gone to everyone because I'm already fine, but Shelly and Leena, Bell stopped me with everything they could, so I was slowing down in bed all day.

So, to get back to you, a lot of people came yesterday.

Frank and Hellman, of course. Everyone in my class, Brother Ivan and Mr. Eunice, my uncle came. And then, I was so surprised that the Emperor and Mr. Cliff came all the way here.

Thank you and thank you for protecting Shelley and her many noble children.

Of course I said, "No, I could barely protect you."

But they said, "No, if Leo hadn't built the wall, a lot more people would have died..." and they said it firmly to the grounds.

Something about the side where I became a wall...... it's like whoever was behind me wasn't dead as one.

So, they told me the reason for this was because the ring I was wearing invalidated instant death.

Oh, before I could give this explanation, I had to give the explanation that was given to my uncle.

Apparently, they found out who did it.

So, I was told that the killer was very shocking.

Oh, my God, he was my master's son.

His name is Gert Fermer.

He's thirty-one, the same age as his uncle.

Looks like he went to magic school too, but his uncle didn't seem to know him because he didn't attend noble school.

He seems to be an awesome magician using additive magic, but he was a difficult man.

He rubbed it with the school many times because of his financial aspects, and quit school last year or so because of that.

From then on, it looks like he was using the enormous assets of the Filibels to carry out research and invent one magic tool after another, which is not normally conceivable.

Apparently, he added "Immediate Death" to this bomb with an unsure magic called Added Magic.

I could hear the stories so far from people at the magic school and from the Filibelles who survived.

But nobody seemed to know more about Gert's abilities at heart.

So I decided to go to my master who would know the most.

with Shelly, Leena and Bell.

Anything, he wants to stay with me for a while because he's worried.

Well, I've caused a lot of trouble, and I decided not to turn it down and go with you.

"Master! I'm here!

I moved inside the store as usual and heard a reply as soon as I called my master.

"Oh! That voice, Leo! Listen to me! The magic fixture you asked for soon... what's wrong with bringing the cute kids? Could you have come to introduce me to the rumored wedding?

The master, who knows nothing, seemed happy to see the Sherries with me.

Ha, I think I'm going to have to explain to you about your master's son, and he wants to go home...

But you have to let me explain.

"That's right. This is Shelia, the princess. This is Liana, the grandson of the Virgin. And my maid Belle."

"" "Nice to meet you" "

"Ooh... Nice to meet you. Ho, you really Leo was a nobleman..."

Apparently, my master was overwhelmed when he saw Shelley and the rest of my outfits.

"Sort of. More importantly, I need to talk to you. Are you okay?

The introduction of the three of them was there, and I decided to get down to business quickly.

I don't like it because I can't help but put it behind me.

"Whoa. You're gonna be okay. We only have a work room, but are you okay?

"Yes, I'm fine"

"So, what's the big deal? Maybe, like, getting married or something? Isn't it too early for a boulder?

Sorry, master. I appreciate you looking at my hard expression and trying to soothe me, but that's not what makes me laugh today.

"No, you're not. Did you know there was an explosion at school before this?

"Oh, you heard a little about that. But I've been passionate about researching new works lately, so I don't even know the details."

I guess. I thought so.

"Really...... Then I'll give you a brief explanation. A bomb was planted at the school I went to the other day, and there was an explosion. So many noble children have died."

"Was it that big a blast? Have you figured out who did this?

"Yes, the killers were Filibelles."

"Isn't the Filibelle family the Duke's house? It's the former back shield of the Fermer Chamber of Commerce. How could a house like that do that?

The master looked surprised when he heard the name of the Filibelle family.

Well, the average person doesn't know how harsh it is over there...

"To sell the empire to the kingdom. I sold my country because it was getting worse, and I needed money."

"I see...... So, why did you come to me?

Okay, here's the thing......

I got ready and started explaining.

"Actually...... My master's son, Gert Fermer, was the one who built the bomb."

"What? Gert built the bomb? So you're saying that our son was involved in mass murder?

The master looked incredible and asked me back.

Well, you don't want to believe your own son is a criminal.

"Yes, definitely"

To my answer, the master thought about thirty seconds before opening his mouth again.

"So, did Gert get caught?

"No, I killed the head of the Filibel family to destroy the evidence before I fled to the kingdom."

"Right...... He's guilty of a terrible crime."

The master took the situation and said so in a low, whining voice.

……

How do I cut out the question to my grieving master......

That's what I thought. I couldn't really start asking my master questions.

"So, what do I tell you? I'll tell you anything you can."

When I kept my mouth shut for a while, my master came to me with those words to sort my mind out.

You seem to understand what I'm here for.

"Well then... first of all, what Mr. Gert is like"

"What a Gert looks like...... I'm sorry. I can't go into details."

"Huh? What do you mean?

What do you mean? You just said you'd talk about anything you could talk about, right?

"No, I'm not trying to hide it. It's really embarrassing, but I was obsessed with magic and I couldn't do anything like a father to him as a kid."

Oh, you mean...

You can imagine something...... even now, if I were in Imperial Capital, I wouldn't have known the big bang of a school that would come into my ear, so I guess I wasn't more interested around at the time......

"True, I was a bad parent... If I could, it would be about what I taught you about magic equipment and what I sent you to magic school for. I barely even heard my mouth. I was caged in the workshop."

Insufficient communication between parents and children?

Something's happening to my master, too.

"Speaking of which, you only had a serious fight once. Yes, when my wife died. That's when Gert, who hurried home after hearing the news of his mother's death, beat me up after he confirmed his daughter-in-law's death. And your mother died because of you! And he said it to me. The only thing you did was make magic implements, so I was told that the denominator was forced to die early."

I see...... Mr. Gert was close to your mother.

Well, even if I remember the story the master said about his wife before, he seems like a kind man.

"At the time, I was an idiot and I beat it back. I didn't understand the greatness of my wife then. Then I realized for the first time since I started doing everything myself. Really, it's too late..."

Wow...... Well, then, your son will hate you.

"I see. What happened to Mr. Gert after his master hit him?

"I left without saying anything. Truth is, I can't apologize to Gert enough times."

Yeah, you wanted me to notice that quickly.

Maybe Mr. Gert didn't have to go the wrong way......

"Really...... Next question, then. Can you tell me about Mr. Gert's additive magic?

"Additional magic? Oh, sure... it's the power to use a lot of magic to add something to things. Even so, it looks like I could only shine a stone or something. That's all I know."

Oh, you're a really bad parent.

If I wasn't your master, I might have cursed you.

I wish you were more interested in your kids.

"Yeah...... ok. That's the question."

"I'm sorry I didn't know anything. I'm sorry you're such a bad master."

"No, I will continue to respect my master. I just... I think we should look back on our lives for a little while."

I'd really like to say more, but I'll just keep it for this because my master knows it too.

"Oh yeah... I will. And I can't make amends, but I can still think of every way I can make amends."

"Okay. I'll make amends with you."

I'll definitely get Gert for someone I couldn't protect in this case, too.

"No, that's good. Because you're the victim."

"No, I haven't suffered much damage. Look, it's intact."

With that said, I immediately thought I had failed.

Then you'll find out you're deluding me.

"Oh, I kind of figured it out. You're seriously injured by Gert's bomb, aren't you?

I knew it would happen.

"It's..."

What should I do? You say?

"Yes. I did. It's a massive injury that will kill you in a few moments. I lost both arms and my whole body was covered in scratches and burns."

When I was worried, Leena, who was sitting next to me, answered instead.

And I didn't hear you lost both arms!?

Me, maybe my arm was missing...

Playback varies.

"Oh, was that a big injury..."

"By the way, Leo missed an important explanation, so let me tell you instead, the real purpose of using this bomb was to kill Leo. Mr. Gert figured it out, and he built a very powerful bomb that could kill Leo-kun using additional magic."

Wait! That's it!?

"Oh yeah... I'm so sorry. I can't tell you to forgive me if my mouth rips. You don't have to forgive me, let me do anything."

Listening to Leena, the master has made a serious face and apologized as soon as he had a surprise look.

"No, that's fine. No, yeah... let me go home around here today. Also, let's talk slowly."

Hey, it's hard to talk right now.

Let's talk to each other, after we've settled down a little.

"Oh, okay. I'm so sorry."

"Fine. See you later."

"Ha..."

I moved into the room, and I accidentally sighed loudly.

More than I expected, I'm tired.

"Why didn't you tell me the truth?

I said, "Why did you tell my master that I was the target? 'I tried to tell Leena, and Leena asked me questions quicker.

"It's..."

Why didn't you tell me?

Because it was hard to tell?

"If you respect your master, I don't think you should lie. That lie won't be kind. Anyway, it's a lie you'll find out soon enough."

If you ask me, you are. Mr. Colt would have known right away that I was badly injured, and it was only a matter of time before I got into my master's ear.

Oh, I knew I should have told you.

"Right...... Thanks for saying it instead."

"No, I thought it would be hard for Leo to tell you directly, so let me tell you instead"

"Oh, thank you so much."

I guess I should have said it, but it was really hard to say.

So, honestly, Leena helped me.

"But in the end, you didn't know much about Gert's abilities."

"Well, I don't have a choice. But I feel like I heard it, it looked like my magic. Instead of using a lot of magic, magic that can do something special... magic similar to creative and destructive magic, so I'm pretty sure it's a great ability."

You think the 'use a lot of magic' the master was saying would be an important keyword, right?

"Right...... Next time, do I have to fight someone as capable as Leo or Lou..."

Sure, when you say it, you're scared.

"Right. We need to be stronger from now on. First, we need to empower the territory."

We need to keep building on our strength to continue to protect what is important.

From now on, we'll throw away sweetness like this one and use all the power we can use.

Always do your best. If you don't, you're really dead, and you can't protect what's important.

"Right. I'll do my best to use more magic."

"I, too, will do my best to heal any injury"

"I… aspire to be a more competent maid"

"Nothing, it's enough for the three of you to stay by my side. No, let's all stick to our goals."

Usually I'd say, 'It's enough for you to stay by my side,' but this time we all decided to work hard.

Because I realized there were people who couldn't beat me on their own anymore.

Probably will continue to increase. At that time, there comes a time when we absolutely have to rely on our surroundings.

At that time, we should all have a little bit of power.

"" "Yes (yeah)" "

Listen to the three powerful replies and I'll do my best too! I felt that.

To be sure to protect what is important......
