"... hey, Eye. How long will this study last? I mean, someday I'm starting to study something other than the human body."

"I wonder if you're tired of reading books with the same content all the time, and you're just looking at other books, Alphonse."

"Yeah, that's okay. I don't like reading more books than before. But let's move on. Come on, let's concentrate the magic on your stomach. As a matter of fact, I'm already practicing myself."

I see. Now, let me show you. "

Both the coming days and the coming days continued to study while reading books.

Collect all the magic in your brain and read a book.

I did what Eye said because it was part of my magic manipulation practice, but I was getting tired of it.

Well, more than a month has passed since Eye's special training began.

In the meantime, all I've been doing is reading a book about magic.

I want to move my body.

I thought so, I was practicing myself before Eye told me.

A book of human anatomy in which the human body is described in detail.

According to the book, people digest food taken from their mouths and absorb it in their stomach intestines.

Focus your magic on that intestine.

Concentrating magic on the brain strengthens the ability to think and remember.

Likewise, it seems that collecting magic in your intestines increases your ability to absorb it.

Focus deep into your body.

Then, move your magic faster than before.

Gather magic in your stomach intestines and wrap your whole intestine.

"... I wonder?

"Wonderful, Mr. Alphonse. Passed. This will allow you to capture magic more efficiently from your food intake."

"I did it. Now, all you have to do is practice [meditation].

"No, before you do that, there's one more thing you need to do. Can I have two of these drinks while I gather magic in my intestines?

I was observing my magic.

The eye saw me gathering magic in my intestines and gave me a pass.

I did it.

Eye praised me.

Besides, if you can do this, you can finally practice [meditation] next.

I thought so, but Eye tried to do something different before practicing [meditation].

I wonder what it is.

Eye prepared two kinds of drinks.

"What is this? Should I drink this?

"Yes, this way first, Mr. Alphonse."

"Right this way.... uhh, it's a bit bitter."

"It's a magic penetrator. It's used in the Labyrinth City of the Old Percival, and it helps your body absorb magic for a certain amount of time."

"Heh, there was such a medicine. If there was such a convenient thing, you should have used it from the beginning."

"Don't do that. If you rely on this medicine from the beginning, you will not grow the power to capture magic without it. You should only use the medicine as an adjunct."

Is that what this is about?

I think that when I drank the magic penetrant, which is quite a bitter medicine, I was able to absorb more magic more easily than before.

But if I could do this without training, I might not have been able to train for more than a month to absorb magic.

Is it only because I want you to be able to do it by yourself that Eye has never used this medicine before?

So convinced, I look at another drink.

"I know this. I've seen it. [M] It's a magic cure, isn't it?

"Yes, that's right. This will restore your magic when you drink it. I'll take this. With Alphonse's magic gathered in your intestines to increase your absorption capacity, use the magic penetrant as an aid to grasp the sense of absorption of magic from the magic healing medicine. This will give us a better understanding."

I see. Even ordinary foods can absorb magic, but magic healing medicine is easier to understand. All right, I'll have a drink. "

Take magic healing medicine in a glass at once.

I have drunk this several times before.

However, even though I knew that magic had recovered at that time, I had no idea how magic was recovering in my body.

But not now.

I knew whether the magic gathered in my stomach would react, or whether the warm magic would soak through my stomach and be captured by my body.

Oh, did you capture magic from what you mouth like this?

I was reminded that there were many things I didn't know about the meal I had just casually eaten.

Then, mix the captured magic with your own magic and refine it.

The magic originally generated from my body, the magic in the air, and the magic taken from food and drink are mixed to make it thicker.

Somehow, I felt that the amount of magic would be reduced by making it thicker than before, but that's fine.

The amount decreases as the quality of magic improves, but Eye said there was no problem.

The magic that has been refined and condensed can be poured into the magic stone inside your stomach and stored.

That's why I always absorbed all the magic I had in my body, so that I could use it as my own magic.

Thus, by February, I had succeeded in acquiring a quality and quantity of magic that was clearly different from the previous one, as well as a way of handling magic.
