Herscherik (Reincarnated Prince Series)

Two months early when the study of magic by the instructor of Ciro began. Hershelik spent one to two classes a week studying from the foundations of magic, where Shilo was a teacher.

"Magic has systems and personal qualities, okay?

Today, after completing and reviewing the foundations of magic as a whole, Hershelik says as he looks at a piece of paper that sums up what he has learned so far.

Magic has several lineages.

What is commonly used is magic classified as attribute-based magic.

Literally, it is a magic that converts one's magic power into attributes such as flames, water, light, and junction, and is also called conversion magic.

I convert my magic powers into attributes, so I have attributes that I'm good at, and I don't like. That's why they say people can do things differently in terms of performance and mass.

"Yeah, and furthermore, we can also deal with a variety of attributes in combination with the idea of an individual.

Ciro goes on, for example.

The magic of the water cage that trapped the fireball used by Shiro in the exercise area. That is the combined magic of water magic and junction magic. They wiped out the flame magic with water magic and reduced the damage to the surrounding area in the junction.

"Isn't it just the juncture? Wouldn't the flames inside disappear by themselves if we put up a line that blocks the air?

Flames disappear if the air runs out. Because we run out of oxygen to burn. Then wouldn't junction magic, which blocks the air, have been enough?

When Hershelik asked that question, Shiro gave a look that surprised him for a moment. Because it was not a question the prince would ask, who had not yet gone to the college, but Ciro answers the question even as he realizes its discomfort.

"If a flame had been burned from a natural or magical flame, it would have disappeared if the air had been shut off. But that flame is a flame with converted magic. The air isn't burning, so the junction alone stays within the junction and keeps burning until the magic runs out. Maintaining the bond is a hassle until the magic of the three of us is exhausted.

"I see."

Magic in this world is magic that is activated by using your magic powers. Hershelik is convinced that it is different from a natural phenomenon in the first place.

"Then you don't have water, air, magic to use what's on this scene?

A common setting even for novels I've read in my previous life. For example, wouldn't it save magic if the water from the tap was used in the same way as magic?

Siro leaks a sigh to Hershelik's question.

"Abo.

"Just so I'm clear, it's a dent.

Hershelik disagrees with the unforgiving word of Shilo. It seems like Hershelik is the one who doesn't have any appearance of it while he hopes to make his own dent.

Sigh again at the look of it, while Shiro opens his mouth.

"I have no choice because I have no magic. Look, there's a lot of floating magic in natural things. I mean, there's another magic. I would have talked about the difficulty of combining magic before.

"Is it hard to handle magic with another quality besides your own?

"Yes. So using something natural with floating magic is more challenging than using your magic. We also have to have a magic ceremony that incorporates it.

So Siro adds in his mind how peculiar is the pocket watch of himself and Hershelik that can easily convert floating magic into his own.

Hershelik didn't change his attitude particularly when he learned about Shilo's abilities from then on. I'd rather say, "Well, so you're saying there's no magic out there? Isn't that magic cheat!" I was impressed to say something I didn't quite understand. Shiro felt the unexpected light reaction.

"So it would be that combined magic experiment to compensate for the manipulation of magic with magic equipment. It would be better if the triplets using the tools had more than 30% success.

Even triplets with near magic and sensitivity using magic tools have a 30% chance of success. So much combined magic is difficult.

"Why do you need a magic ceremony?

Hershelik now asks something else.

(Surprisingly, you ask me everything.

It was very quiet during class. I'll ask you a question, but I'll finish explaining it. Now that I'm doing a comprehensive review of everything, I guess I'm going to take charge and do what I wonder.

"The other way around. Originally, it is magic that builds magic ceremonies and activates them to utter and chant demonic words.

"Huh? If it's simple magic, even though it activates just the magic word?

The magic that shines a light that even Hershelik can do without having to build a magic formula... I don't know Hershelik what a magic formula is in the first place, but it activates easily just by saying a demonic word.

"It activates but consumes completely different amounts of magic power.

Hershelik twists his neck to Shilo's words.

"You use floating magic, so it's hard to understand, but people's magic is inherently finite. You should think about replacing magic with physical strength. Slowly walking to the destination and running through is definitely the latter given the time of arrival, but fatigue will also be more common in the latter.

"So if you use magic without a magic formula, you use a lot of magic?

"Oh. We're going to need excessive magic. The magic shortened to that is less precise. The more precise the magic, the more complicated the magic formula becomes and the longer the magic text becomes.

"Accuracy?"

Hershelik tilted his neck again.

"…… for example, suppose to cook meat. I prefer to put a good fire through one way or the other. What about you?"

"I like regular baking.

"Then as a simultaneous meat bake, the magic formula activates magic without much thought. Then it can only be burned with the same fire. But if we put together a magical formula..."

"Are you saying you can cook another fired meat at the same time?

"That's the thing. However, when combining this magic formula, it takes three times as long as the magic formula of the same fire reduction.

Hershelik nodded again.

(Shiro is a good analogy.

It's easy for me to imagine without magic, even if it tells a story. He may be surprisingly talented as a teacher.

"The magic ceremony seems difficult, or I can't use it. Speaking of which, what is the belt of light that Mr. Shiro used to have when he used his magic?

A glowing belt that appeared around Ciro when Ciro used magic in an accident on the exercise field. The fog disappeared at the same time as the magic ended.

"Technically, no, but that's the magic formula. Simple objects can be processed in the brain, but when using multiple attributes or precise magic, visualized minute processing increases.

You mean a phenomenon that occurs when a magician organizes a complex magic ceremony?

"…… I see?

Instead of words, Hershelik tilts his neck.

"You didn't know that now.

"Sorry Nasai. Wakarimasen.

Hershelik apologizes honestly for being stunned by Shilo. A sigh I don't know how many times, Shilo. Still sticky. He tells me.

"A simple extrapolation can be calculated, but the difficult problem would be easier to understand by writing. That's familiar.

I mean, that bally thing of light, I mean, notes, Hershelik is forced to convince me. It's quicker to remember that's what it is than to take the time to understand things you don't understand.

"Build magic formulas quickly, organize efficient magic formulas, and create effective magic. It's a personality around here. I don't know if I can do the same magic with a magic formula made by someone else.

Knowing that magic reflects an individual's qualities and strengths more than he thought, Hershelik alters his perception.

"Is that it? Then what about the magic tools?

I don't know the attribute magic tool, but anyone could have used the scanner magic tool.

"Magic tools incorporate magic formulas so that people with magic can achieve a certain effect. By the way, if I'm being precise, I commonly refer to what aids magicians' magic as magic tools and what they use in their lives. In other words, there are tools called magic equipment and weapons in size.

(Does magic mean cooks cook food, magic tools instant food?

The more Hershelik arranges himself, the more he learns.

I have long arranged it to be easy for me to remember. When I was a student, I learned words and questions that I didn't understand, with a story tailored to my brain that was anthropomorphic and eye-catching. Now that I think about it, it was broken somewhere in my studies back then.

"I understand the attribute relationship. Later, divine healing magic and manipulative magic...... I somehow understand divine healing magic.

Classified as divine healing magic are healing magic and purifying magic. Healing magic is the magic of healing the body. Purifying magic is the release of undetection, where magic power accumulates and moves in the remains of animals, and the magic of dead people and animal souls who cannot originally exist in this world healing and purifying evil-spirited things with remnants of their hearts. However, in order to use this divine healing magic, it takes the qualities of magic like a henyl, and because few people possess those qualities, there are few users.

Just because there are few users, medicine also exists in this world, so healing magic does not boast absolute power.

(Glad I had medicine......)

If healing magic were absolute in this world, it means that the Church, which has almost a monopoly on divine healing magic, would have absolute power. Because human life is the most important thing.

"The rest is operation-based magic...... I'm not sure about this right now.

"Is it manipulative magic?

"Yes, it's kind of like scary magic just to ask......"

Manipulative magic is magic that manipulates and handles magic as it is, unlike attribute-based magic that converts magic to another attribute and uses it. Mental attacks and manipulative magic, puppet magic, and spells are classified.

Psychological magic is magic that attacks the spirit of the target with magic, destroys the spirit, and manipulates it.

Puppet magic is the opposite of purifying magic, magic that blows magic into corpses and inorganic objects and moves them as they please.

And the spell is literally a curse. It mediates words, objects, contracts, and binds the behavior, spirit, life and death of oneself and the target audience.

"Surely if this was all I had, I would be scared. But let's think about it.

Saying so, Shiro continues his words.

"Spiritual magic, for example. It scares me to think of it as an attack, but the spirit is the heart. Can't you assume that there are people who have suffered past trauma and that if you turn to overcome that trauma with spiritual magic, that person will be saved?

Besides, Shiro keeps saying things.

Puppet magic is the magic that freely manipulates what ends life, or what has no life. We can minimize the danger if we let puppet magic manipulate objects where biological humans shouldn't. The same can be said for spells, wishes and allusions.

"The point is the problem with people who use magic, right?

Hershelik nodded.

Just as a man with a sword is not a murderer, so a man who uses manipulative magic is not evil. It's a user-side problem.

Nodding at Hershelik's words, Shiro adds.

"Difficulty jumps when other magic powers exist. Operating magic is generally difficult to handle and has a low success rate, and requires elaborate magic formulas, as well as intense magic consumption.

Spiritual magic changes the success rate depending on the opponent's magic power and mental state. Puppet magic is difficult to manipulate if the subject has magic power, and requires a large amount of magic power. The spell is ineffective in the first place.

"Besides, royal castles and important facilities would be stretched with boundaries to prevent from that kind of magic.

Hershelik is relieved by the words.

Because if my father or brothers are manipulated by spiritual magic, I don't know how to deal with them.

(If they had such handy magic in the first place, would they use it?

I just think Hershelik. Those guys treat my father like a puppet without such magic.

Hershelik holds his fist for a long time. Unless that curse is lifted quickly, the future of this country will be ruined.

So Hershelik has to do something about it.

I can see Shiro erasing the letters on the blackboard.

He hasn't changed his attitude at all for about two months. He always looks grumpy and grumpy. If you don't want to, I wish you wouldn't come, but just keep your time. He gave me a class.

And only when he talks about magic is he relatively delirious, not grumpy.

"Mr. Shiro loves magic, doesn't he?

"What?"

To Hershelik's abrupt words, Shiro slaps off the powder of chalk on his clothes as he wrinkles between his eyebrows. And I looked at Hershelik as if to see a rare animal.

"What are you saying all of a sudden?

He looks grumpy. But lately, I've come to know that it's kind of a shade of light.

"Because when you're talking about magic, you're losing the wrinkles between your eyebrows.

To Hershelik's point, Shiro pressed his eyebrows reflexively, making him look even more grumpy. I'm scared to be amazed by the beauty, but I've gotten used to this lately.

"…… I only have magic.

Siro says as he shrugs.

I was told I was a monster.

I was abandoned by my real parents.

(But……………)

"... because there was magic, I could meet that guy.

"Is that man Master Henil?

Hershelik picks up Siro's unconscious words. I got stunned again, but Hershelik wouldn't stop.

"Mr. Shiro loves magic as well as Master Henil, doesn't he?

"…… Hmm.

Shiro did not deny Hershelik's words. I just lost my sight of him. However, because his ears were slightly stained red, he found out that it was a cover.

"... I was brought to life because Master Henil was there. I could also study magic. That's all.

That's all, for what it's worth, Siro's words sounded very heavy. The sound of a knock echoed indoors as Hershelik tried to ask what that meant. The inquiry into Shiro is interrupted and Khlo enters the room when Hershelik prompts him.

"Dear Hershelik, it is time.

"What is it?

Hershelik tilts his neck. The main thing about that appearance is that Crowe keeps his words going without breaking his expression. He plays the perfect butler because he's in front of Shilo, but if he wasn't there, he would have been sighed.

"I see the Marquis Barbasse's ladies.

"Oh!"

Hershelik rushes to start clearing out the desk he studied. Today's schedule promised to meet Siro in the morning and Marquis Barbasse's sisters in the afternoon.

"Then I am……"

"Oh, wait, Mr. Shiro!

Hershelik retained Shiro, who said so and tried to leave the room.

"Mr. Ciro, don't you have time for this afternoon? Why don't you go out with us if you don't mind?

To Hershelik's words, Shiro gave a troublesome expression.
