09 Stories: "Bias"

'He wants to learn new magic... then why don't we just do it?

"If I can do that, I won't talk to you."

I said in a sigh.

"Chris. Didn't I realize before, maybe I suck at magic?

'... uh, dare you, may I ask how you came to such a conclusion'

"It's too late to learn magic. I'm still going to be practicing this, but I still can't even use D-rank magic satisfactorily. I'm probably the only one who can't even use Fireball compared to his generation in school."

"... Oh, you know what?"

Chris said as convinced.

'I'm sorry. I forgot to tell you. Your body is being deviated by the education of the institution. "

"... biased?

I lurked my eyebrows in words I was unfamiliar with.

'As you know, magic has all sorts of methods of operation. Compression, Multiple Startups, Parallel Startups… Using these successfully allows us to use normal magic more highly'

It's the knowledge I taught at the institution. Nor is it particularly confidential information. If you're curious about that, even students can easily find out, and if you go to the library, you'll find a heap of references.

But the next word was something I had no idea about.

"Deviation is the creation of a body that specializes in certain operational laws. Devoted human magic operations are so effective that they are not comparable to ordinary people '

Totally first-ear.

I calmly ask Chris, who explains without precipitation.

"... me too, you mean one of them"

"Yeah. You're a genius at compression."

Pale, says Chris.

"For example, The Demon Bullet, which you love, specializes in speed and penetration. That's easy to work with, but no one else can imitate it, right? That's because you're so biased towards compression. Only you can elevate Demon Bullet, which is just E-rank magic, to that much more lethal magic. By the way, 02 (Oz) has become a parallelism starter. '

Listening to Chris, I scratched my back hair lightly.

"... it's like you don't really feel it. When was my body modified like that?"

'Well, the agency didn't bother explaining either. But there's nothing to be pessimistic about, is there? It is no exaggeration to say that bigotry is a frontier of masters that everyone envies. In fact, only a few of the soldiers in the agency could have mastered it. "

"When I was a trained soldier, I had a lot of individual curriculum if I did it alone, because of it."

'That's what I'm talking about. To master bias, you need to drill even certain magic operations. After a distracting workout, only the chosen one can master it.'

Ex-post consent is slightly unconvincing... but given my position at the time, I can't help it. The institutions wouldn't have been able to afford to think about what happened after the war ended, and most importantly, I didn't think about it myself. I would have given my consent in two replies, even if there had been prior consultation on the bias.

"Just bias has the disadvantage that instead of specializing in certain magic operations, you don't like other magic operations.... This is why you can't handle normal magic. Compression is a particularly peaky technique among a few operating methods. Specializing in it, you don't like ordinary magic."

"... I see"

Multiple starts and parallel starts are techniques for applying normal magic with the prototype left behind. In contrast, compression is a technique that changes the prototype. Specializing in that, I don't like to use magic while leaving the prototype behind.

"You, when you signed up for the King's Guild last month, you had the magical power of B-rank, right?

"Oh."

"There's no way a man who can't even use D-rank magic can take B-rank magic power. That's why the exception is biased.... When you signed up, didn't you find me suspicious?

"... with that said, you were suspicious of hero students and guild masters"

"Because of the difficulty of mastering, it's not very famous. I'm sure the master would know, but you didn't think the students were mastering it. '

I got a general idea of the situation.

I can't even use D-rank magic well, and it seems that I beat out the high magic power because of my physique of being a genius.

"Can't you solve this deviation and do it?"

'... if you feel like it, you can solve it, but I wouldn't recommend it. Again and again, its power is precious and very strong. How many times have you been helped by that power?

That's for sure. Chris is right.

"So can you master normal magic even as you remain biased? I want some magic for next month's competition festival that I can use without looking..."

"... I see you wanted to learn magic for the competition festival"

That's right. Chris' voice seemed happy somewhere.

Perhaps he thought he was enjoying his daily routine. In fact, you're right.

'Okay. Then I'll introduce you to someone you can trust. Talk to the person next. "

"... someone you can trust?

We're not talking about who we are, are we? A trustworthy man, with regard to his magical knowledge and arms. Fortunately, I'm at school. "

Chris goes on to say.

"Once in a while, bias can be a natural physique. So when you talk to me, explain that it's innate. Acquired genius cannot be mastered without special training, so it may be prudent to know."

"Okay."

On the face of it, I'll keep my bias innate.

That much of a lie would be easy to penetrate. I don't have much room for borough.

"So, who is that person?

"It 's-"

After school. I was visiting Chris as soon as possible.

Currently, Eagle Group students are practicing outside for the competition festival. I went back to the school building first only to tell my teammates who competed in the physical race that I had something to do with it.

Magic prep room.

I knocked on the door when I saw the letter on the plate and made sure this was the room I was looking for.

"Excuse me."

When I opened the door, a woman in the room looked at this one.

"Oh, Mr. Tweet?

I'll tell the blue-haired woman what to do.

"Dr. Sylphia. I wanted to talk to you about something."
