The next morning, I showed my face to the receptionist at the labyrinth once, but I hadn't found a party to take on the request yet.
I went out of town and went to the furniture store that Truda introduced me to yesterday. Edda and Julius broke up and each was to stroll through the town.
This decorator meant that rings and necklaces were the main products. He also keeps talismans, bracelets, foot rings, etc. All the merchandise I was shown was a grace.
He also sold magic defense rings. An item called "Ranti's Ring," it says that when the wearer is attacked by magic, the ring sucks away magic, so it takes some damage, but even a fairly powerful magic attack won't kill him with a single blow. However, the ring is disposable because it breaks.
One and a half gold coins.
(This is good)
(Let Edda and Julius wear it)
"Just give me ten"
"Huh. Customer. There's only five in this store right now."
"Then give me five."
"Aye. Every time."
There were a lot of interesting products, but there were not many that I would definitely like.
After lunch, I went to Truda's.
"Ah, Lecan. Welcome."
"Yesterday was a mess"
"It's good to see you again, I got something good to be afraid of"
For making money, Truda paid for the restaurant, so Lecan presented another piece of dragon meat to Truda.
"I need to ask you something"
"Yeah? Yeah, okay, can you come in the back"
Truda was a sensible man, and when he realized that Lecan wanted a story that people didn't want to hear, he led Lecan into a small room with a deep eye and paid for it.
"Well, I wonder what you want to hear"
"It's the magic the wand store used yesterday. It was, however, a spell called Gillard. What's that supposed to mean? And why shouldn't you ask about it?"
"Oh, you mean that"
Truda took it to the chair and closed her eyes for a while. Then I opened my eyes and said.
"It's ancient language magic. I don't know, maybe Gillard means" disarm "or something."
"Ancient language magic? What's that?
"It is now the ancient magic known only to the Giza conductor. No, even to me, I don't know the details, but anyone who is a resident of this town and somewhat deaf knows that there is such a thing"
"Can only the Giza mentor and that shopkeeper use it?"
"Oh, no, I'm not. Some mastery of ancient language as a language, and the only one who manipulates some ancient language magic is the Giza Instructor, but there are quite a few who are taught certain spells."
Truda told me quite a bit more about it, saying it was something out of specialty, just a listener.
Once magic was nothing but ancient language magic. This was powerful magic, and most of the time it was able to manifest a strong effect, without prep chanting. However, mastery is very difficult. It was rare for those with more than some magic in the first place, and very few of them could master even more ancient language magic. The heirs were only diminishing, but from a certain point on something called modern language magic was knitted out. It is the Great Wizard known as Mazara Wedepasha who is said to have carried out that assembly, and this person is said to have been a long-lived species.
Modern language magic is less powerful and less liberal than ancient language magic, but it is almost certain to be mastered by those who are fit, and here magic breathed back.
All of today's magic draws on this flow of modern language magic, both prep chants and activated spells are modern languages. Ancient language magic has ceased, and even that thing has been almost forgotten outside this magical city.
Among them, there is only one person in this country who can use ancient language magic, Jiza's mentor. Both Mother and Grandmother of the Giza Instructor are users of ancient language magic, and this grandmother wizard, Ella Morpheus, is the first to become the founder of the Palsimo Magic Institute.
Neither Ziza, nor my mother, nor my grandmother, taught modern language magic to their disciples, but not ancient language magic to anyone. The board of directors of the Magic Institute has been requesting the teaching of ancient language magic for nearly a hundred years, but they continue to withdraw that request.
There are other rumors about this. Rumor has it that they continue to look for the right person to teach ancient language magic, but to this day they will not find it.
In fact, there are those who have been taught fragmentary ancient language magic by them. But it is a very fragmentary teaching, and those who are taught can only use one or two hairy, unusual magic. No one has ever been taught an attack spell, even though a powerful attack spell is the mystery of ancient language magic.
Even at the Magic Institute, this is the way to go. The reproduction of ancient language is one of them. Understanding ancient language as a language cannot help the magical revival of ancient language. But restoring ancient language, long lost, is extremely difficult. Even as a Giza mentor, it is also said that he does not fully master the ancient language as a language, and there are rumours that he is not cooperative in this regard.
"The story is that those who can now use fragmentary ancient language magic are obliged to report it to the Institute's board and teach that magic to at least one senior researcher"
"Can you teach that?"
"I can barely remember."
"Even modern language magic can be mastered without aptitude."
"That's the thing. But in ancient magic, they have very little aptitude."
