In a Different World with a Smartphone

"He wants me to teach him magic... Winter night, are you fit?

"Suitability?"

"Magic depends to a great extent on the aptitude you are born with... No one without aptitude can use magic…"

I see. Are you saying that not everyone is capable of using it? Well, yeah. If anyone and he could use it, it wouldn't be strange if more magical civilizations were developed.

"It's not aptitude... yeah, but I guess it's okay. Someone gave me a heartbeat that you could use magic right away."

"Who, that person?

"Uh... very great guy"

It's God. I wonder if I'd doubt my sanity if I said something like that. Shut up.

"You don't know how to know if you're fit?

To my question, Lindsay took some transparent stones out of her hip pouch. Colorless in red, blue and yellow, it shines like glass. Is it about a centimeter in size? Something similar was attached to Lindsay's silver wand. Though that one was bigger.

"What, this?

"... This is Demon Stone,. We can amplify, accumulate, and release magic. You can use this to find out your suitability. It's a big mess."

I wonder if "water" is easy to understand… and crunching, Linze pinched up the blue clear stone. And I'll bring it over a cup of tea I'm done drinking.

"Water, come."

When Linze spinned that word, a twooty small amount of water poured out of the demonic stone and fell into a cup of tea.

"Oh."

"... this is the state in which the magic was activated,. The Demon Stone reacted to my magic and created water."

"By the way."

Neighbor Else receives the Demon Stone from her sister and casts a spell in the same way.

"Water, come."

But the Demon Stone did not react in any way, and never gave out a drop of water.

"This is what happens when there is no water aptitude. So I can't use the magic of water."

"I'm a twin, but I can't use Else."

"Don't say Zuba what you care about... Well, fine."

Shit. My mouth slipped. But I was a little relieved that Else didn't mean she was seriously angry either, she felt a little obstinate.

"Your sister can use the magic of physical strengthening by magic instead of the magic of water... On the contrary, I cannot strengthen myself. Physical strengthening also requires its aptitude, from"

I see. Is that the source of that outrageous destructiveness? My body looked thin, but I was wondering where such power was, but the mystery was solved.

"Magic, everyone has it, but you can't use that skill without aptitude"

It all depends on suitability, huh? Because you don't have talent, and I guess that's it, but the world is unfair.

"So, if I do that too, do you know if I'm fit?"

"Yes.... hold it in your hand and concentrate your consciousness on the stone," Water, come, "he said... Suitability should produce water."

He receives a blue demon stone from Else and brings a hand with a demon stone pinched on the plate to avoid the table getting wet when activated.

Concentrate your consciousness on the Demon Stone and utter the taught word.

"Water, come."

The next moment, water overflowed from the demon stone like a broken faucet.

"Wow!?

When I was surprised and let go of my hand from the demon stone, the water stopped immediately. But the table was flooded and the tablecloth got wet all the time.

"... what do you mean?

Ask the two people in front of you for an explanation for the obvious anomaly. But the twin sisters opened their eyes, flashing. That look looks so much like it, it's going to make me laugh unexpectedly.

"... Mr. Winter Night's magic power was huge in the wrong digits, I think... With such little demon stones and spell fragments. No way... for the first time, though. And it's so clear that there can't be any quality of magic. Incredible......"

"... you wizards are better suited, absolutely. I've never seen anything like it."

Was there aptitude after all? Well, it's God's ink. And this amount of magic and all that. God effect... I don't know, I guess. Better than less. Anyway, I can use magic.

I apologized for the table that got wet, and we left the coffee shop behind.

It was already evening when we arrived at the inn, so the magic thing meant after tomorrow.

Ask Linze to teach her to read and write straight at the dining room when she finishes dinner. I got permission from Micah for once.

First, ask Lindsay to write a simple word, next to which I will write the meaning in Japanese.

"... that's a letter you've never seen. Where is this?

"Mm-hmm. It's a letter that only passes to a limited part of my hometown. Probably wouldn't use it around here other than me."

Instead of around here, I don't think anyone would use it in this world. It's like a secret ciphertext.

Linze seemed to wonder, but for now, she seemed to understand.

They will then teach the word to the tunnel and convert it from one end to Japanese. More and more words in my head about how to teach Linze better. Oh? I had such a good memory of myself. Is this a god effect, too?

But then from the beginning, it would have been easier if you had allowed me to read and write, and I didn't think so, but I guess God has a lot of conveniences too. Luxury should not be said.

Finish your studies in a good place in Kiri, break up with Linze, and go back to your room.

Take note of what happened today on your smartphone and take a peek at the information on the world over there. Hmm, a national honor award for that guy? Oh, I wanted to see this movie.

Whoa, yeah, I'll see if I can get a map of Ethan that I was wondering about. Then I found out from here that it was an island country a long way east, beyond the end of the continent. You look like Japan to that point. I want to go sometime when I get a chance to go.

Were you tired of crusading the Warcraft or something today, you soon became sleepy. No futile resistance, just dive into bed. Good night. Gu.
