Episode 173: Lower Vampires and Failures

Me and Alize were worried about which material to use, but it's up to us.

Needless to say, I let Alize choose first.

I've taken the trouble to collect it for her, but it doesn't make sense if I take the eye-catching material because it looks good to me first.

I'm fine with it.

Ultimately, if I want a new one, I can go pick up my own material.

By the way, Alize chose the wood of the shrub spirit of Syracaba (Shrubs Ent) and the demonic stone of the mine Mina Goblin.

I personally recommend the Demon Stone because it belongs to Terra Drake, which is the best quality.

"This one's prettier, so I'm better this way"

So I took the demon stone of the mine "Mina" goblin.

The demonic stone of the mine "Mina" Goblin, taken by Alize, does have a beautiful blue color, looks medium, but the quality is there.

By contrast, the Terra Drake ones have a bright red glow, and the quality is pretty good.

Still, it doesn't extend to Talask's, but if you choose, it's Di Yalong (Terra Drake)...

And I think Lorraine told me.

She is

"It's not about making the ultimate wand. You should make your first wand with something you like. It's easier to succeed. So you don't have to use anything of good quality"

I said.

Well, if that's the case, I guess this is it.

I like the magic stone of the Earth Dragon (Terra Drake), and the wood of the shrub spirit (Shrubs Ent) is good for Ebony's.

"Well, we both just picked the material, from where we draw the magic formation. Did you both have a pen?"

I'm told, me and Alize both have brushes as well.

There are also two bottles of ink firmly placed on the table.

"Great. Well, first, but I can put magic in the brush. You didn't realize I was doing that earlier, did you? That's as little as it takes, it doesn't have to be a lot. If you pour too much...... well, if you pour too much, don't explain that. Anyway, carefully, instill a little magic in the brush, then keep it in that state and put the brush on the ink. Right here."

I was told that, as Lorraine explained, I poured a little magic into my brush.

This is an unfamiliar task for me, so it's very easy.

It's exactly the same as putting magic into a weapon.

However, it seemed rather difficult because it was Alize's first task.

That's naturally completely different for a decade-long athlete and a novice.

But Alize seems a little regrettable,

"You can't beat Lent!

So I put in the mood.

But the mood seems empty.

"Oh, don't pour too much..."

"What?"

As soon as Alize poured quite a bit more magic into the brush and put it on the ink, the ink shuddered as it swept, and shortly afterwards, it erupted like a fountain and onto Alize.

"Ha-ha."

And when I laughed, Gin, I glanced at him with a black face in ink, and I glanced at this one, Alize.

I pull in a laugh, and then in a seriously rotten tone,

"... I see that if you pour a lot of magic into it, the ink will splash. Attention, attention..."

I said.

Lorraine nodded,

"Yes, but don't stir it up too much... Don't get too uptight with Alize either. Well, I think it's better to have a competitor, but it's useless to just stick around about this task"

"Why not?

Alize didn't seem to understand, and asks strangely.

Lorraine explains the situation.

"I would have never done the act of instilling magic in the brush, but Lent is always fighting with magic in his arsenal. For ten years, all the time. I mean, this guy's not a novice to this task."

"What's that, sloppy!

and indignant at the truth about which Alize was informed,

"You don't have a choice... you can't go back to being a beginner now. I've never done alchemy before, but I'm good at working with magic. So give up on the neighborhood."

That's how I excused myself.

The excuse and nothing natural, but I guess Alize was just a little dissatisfied.

But it's not that I don't listen well or have a bad personality.

she says.

"I thought you could do better with Lent"

I mean, he wanted to grow the same way at the same rate.

I don't know, but I don't.

It's just...

"Nothing. You can't do that. It's just that I have an area of expertise. You have to learn magic and alchemy to use it."

"Am I right...?

Alize tilted her neck a little unconvincing, but when Lorraine,

"Yes. Alize is much better than Lent a decade ago in the first place. Ten years from now, if we can do it better than this guy, then Alize will win."

say.

Sure it is.

And I'm sure they'll pull it out.

I'm going to work hard and be strong now, but with ten years, Alize would be as good as I am now.

Alize is an honest one,

"... work hard"

I said.

Then Lorraine does her cleaning magic and brings new ink back to work.

I wonder how much we have in stock......

Well, okay.

I was a magician to a successful brush in one shot, but Alize was struggling quite a bit.

But still, I'm jealous to say talent because I was able to manage it when I was repeating it for about an hour.

It took longer for me to wear it...

The magic in your body can now move easily in the process of becoming aware of magic, but when it comes to releasing it outside your body, this is because you need another sense.

Still, I can manage in about a week... but not as fast as Alize.

"Now draw the magic formation. We have to do it with magic in the brush, so we need to focus. Come on."

That's what Lorraine said, so me and Alize moved on to work, too.

I didn't need so much concentration because I can breathe to maintain my magic in the brush, but Alize is trying her best to pull for it.

Though I can do it now, I haven't, so...

That's right. If you can reach the same level as me today alone, it will be rounded.

Well, it's nothing. I hope it turns out to be rounded, because it means I have good muscle.

"Have you done it yet, Lent?

Lorraine asked me that, so I nod.

"Ah. See if that's okay."

"... I knew you were clever. I'm hanging on tight. Speaking of which, were you a good painter?"

"I'm not sure if it's good, but I wonder if I can draw it for the crowd"

Sometimes when you are an adventurer, you can paint and explain the features of the demons you come across on the ground, such as when you share them with one another.

To that end, I practiced a little.

It would mean that things that have been done are alive.

"Ma, this won't be a problem. It works normally. Alize..."

That said, Lorraine goes for a peek at Alize.

Then,

"What do you say?

Lorraine asked Alize,

"... not bad. but it's a little distorted around here. It's not a problem to this extent, but if you distort it significantly, it won't activate, or the unexpected effects will activate, so be careful."

Gently, yes, cautious.

And Alize,

"What's unexpected, for example?

"There are a lot of things... a good word among magicians, there used to be a magician Konrer with no pictorial heart. My mouth was a master, so I could be a court magician, but one day I was supposed to be in charge of the rituals that would pass on to that country. I didn't have a problem with that, but I drew the ritual, the magic formation, and raised the fireworks. Konler also understood his lack of painting, but he still took it upon himself that even if he failed, he should properly use magic to raise the fireworks. So, I actually drew the magic formation and activated it. They say it was a pretty disguised one. So, then, what do you think happened?

"... what happened?

"Fire dragons were summoned on the spot and burned down the area and left."

"It's..."

In the end too much Alize is bluishing her face.

I guess I got scared when they told me that the magic team I wrote could cause such a thing.

But Lorraine,

"It's just an old story, a lesson learned story. It doesn't actually happen that far. Konler was the magic team that sucked at drawing, but he was still an excellent magician and had a huge amount of magic. That's why it's been such a big mistake. Even if Alize fails...... now, well, it will be over enough for Slime to be summoned at best. And then there's like a light explosion that's not loud or life-threatening. So don't worry. If that happens, I'll take care of it."

That's what I said, so Alize was relieved.
