Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

Outside the Tris West Gate, the forest spreads to almost three hundred metels. Close to the territorial capital and inhabited by relatively warm and small beasts, many residents go wild with their families and close friends on good weather holidays.

At the outer edge of the forest, the knights were now busy standing in the tight air. Men and women in well-tailored outdoor clothing are watching with anxiety and spitting. Looks like they're with the missing sons. Other residents who had come to play in the wilderness had already been sent home on the grounds that they would interfere with the search.

As Alec and the others breathed out and reached the outer edge, a man with Elias approached us.

"Are you here?"

Where is she?

He doesn't answer the man's words and asks where Shiori is. The man, named Martin, pointed his jaw behind him and urged him to come.

"I don't want to be taken on my own."

"I'm sorry. Anyway, I just wanted to find out where it is. I want you to understand... over there."

In front of the forest entrance, a strolling trail, Theori, escorted by a knight commander and Elias, noticed something and felt relieved. Ruli jumped out of her shoulders and jumped into Ciori.

"... good. You're here."

"Suddenly they took me. I'm in a hurry."

When I put my hand on Shiori's shoulder, I lowered my eyebrows and smiled bitterly, saying, "Me too." Sounds like he was very attentive.

"--But are you okay? I told you to explore magically, but how?"

Siori's abilities were meant to be understood during the Manticore Crusade, but honestly, I have no idea what she intends to do. Originally, exploration magic is extremely narrow - magic that can only be used for very limited purposes, such as exploring magical tools (items) indoors. In other words, it can only be used to that extent. At best, it can be used to find lost magic objects. I've never heard of it being used to explore victims in the woods.

"Sir Theori, it's time."

Elias is interrupting. I saw a rush on that face. About two hours before sundown. We don't have time.

"Yes, sorry, here we go. It would be helpful if you kept a little quiet."

Theoli stood on the edge of the forest, and pointed her hands toward the forest. Close your eyes and take a deep breath. The feeling of tight air stung my skin.

"This is...."

I was looking at Theoli for a while, but I read the magic flow and unexpectedly moaned at the identity of the magic she was exercising.

"What's going on?"

Clement told me to whisper. Not so bright in magic, he turns his eyes to ask for explanation.

"... the application of exploratory magic. It must be Shiori's own (original). It stretches its magic thinly to the limit and releases it towards the forest. It is stretched thinly to save perhaps a little magic. Moreover, there are holes in the magic released. Instead of releasing magic evenly, we're looking for more savings by meshing it up. This will certainly... spread the magic of exploration quite widely."

It is exploratory magic that releases magic and detects the magic response caught by it. Every human being is said to have fine but magical powers. Theori must be trying to locate the lost by detecting its slight magic.

--Although humans always have fine magic, the answer is no if they can activate that fine magic as magic. Generally speaking, "having magic" means that you have enough magic to activate it as magic.

Theoli fits the condition of "having magic" very well. I'm searching for a very subtle magic response with the magic that fits.

But even so. Even if the magic is at least making the most of it and exercising its magical power with ingenuity. Alec stared at the back of the tiny Cili with his narrow eyes.

(― ― What a housekeeper. I'm not just a housekeeper. You're a fine magician.

However, Clement raised her eyebrows slightly.

"But isn't that... a considerable burden on Shiori?"

"I guess. Maintain a wide range of magic releases. It should take a lot of concentration."

A trick that can only be done by Shiori, who shows dexterity in using synthetic magic without difficulty. However, the extensive exploratory magic requires considerable mental power as well as magic consumption. There's no way it won't be a burden. Alec unconsciously searched his hip pouch. I have spare magic healing medicine (potion). Of course she carries it with her. However, I cannot even recover my shredded mental and physical strength. We can only recover by taking a break.

"Alec"

Clement said with her gaze on Shiori.

"... in the case of [Dawn], Siori remembered that she couldn't reach her limit and hid her impossibility. I hardly put it on my face. The only way to spot a malaise is to judge it by its complexion. Remember, there will always be times when you ask me to be with you."

"- Okay."

When I returned the reply, Shiori reacted. Points to the ten o'clock direction.

"--There are two human reactions over there, and there are multiple signs of approaching them! The distance is physical, but about 500 meters!

From among the knights arose the voice of doubt, and the aristocrats took a breath. The Commander gave instructions, and the knights rushed in the direction indicated by Theori.

"Bring Shiori with you to pinpoint his exact location!

Hey, wait a minute.

Alec protested when he saw Elias take Siori's hand.

"This magic is very worn out. Don't push me too hard! Leave it to the Knights!

I watched Siori while saying it. You still look pale. If you look closely, you can see that you are breathing on your shoulders. It is a symptom of lack of magic. You can't overlook the imitation of running in the woods with poor scaffolding in this state, and allowing you to exercise any more magic.

"It's not a long story! If anything happens to you, young man!

"I know how you feel about the Lord. But the people are not consumables for the nobles!

Elias took a breath at Alec's words. Seeing Theori and Clement slightly open their eyes, they returned to me.

"Alec, I'm fine. I get better when I rest, but if something happens to my child, I won't get it back. And I'm going to show you the limits. I don't imitate falling. You can go."

Not only gentle, but a strong gaze ejected itself. That's the adventurer's eye. She is also an adventurer. Alec opened his mouth and then gave up and exhaled. Because I thought I would have said the same thing if I were her.

"-Okay. Then drink this first."

Push the magic healing potion into her hand. Only magic can heal, but it's a lot more than none. Quickly open the medicine bottle and make sure you swallow it before you take your hands off it. I also looked at Clement. He was dissatisfied, but he nodded to see if he gave up.

"Let's go!

Yes!

Oops!

The three ran towards the forest.
