Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Chapter 713: Fireball
After a while, the soldiers rushed around. It looks like the soldiers are pulling up from Castle Casa. I heard that if we retreat at once, the enemy could move into attack. Well, given the soldiers' safety, this is a well-earned plan.
The soldiers were pulling up in small groups of ten. They're all worn out. I think we should rescue the wounded first, but it looks like they were already rescued when the advance party arrived.
The soldiers who pulled up were handed out cookers, and the smell was good here. We ate beef stew earlier, so we didn't feel particularly hungry, but the soldiers must still be hungry. I went to the cooker first.
"Somebody, start a fire."
A man's voice can be heard from nowhere. One of the soldiers is wandering around, appealing to his surroundings to start a fire. Next to him was a set of firewood, and next to him was a pot-like object. Either you're eating in that pot, or you're just boiling water. When I got up, I approached the man.
I wonder if we'll start a fire here?
"Yeah... yeah"
Look at me. He's got black and white eyes. A man with a strange body suddenly appeared, so he must be surprised. I lit a small fireball on my index finger, narrowing my eyes at him like that.
Yo, yo, yo.
Quickly move your index finger to throw a small fireball into the wood. Soon, a little pillar of fire rose from there.
"Oh, I didn't expect the fire to start so soon..." Thank you! "
He broke his body and bowed. I said I couldn't thank you enough, and I tried to leave the scene.
"Hey, you!"
The woman's voice made her body tremble unexpectedly. In front of him stood a small woman wearing a robe. She looks at me harshly.
"What are you doing!"
What is this woman? I only started the fire with good intentions, but what did it taste bad? You wouldn't be so loud.
She is moving her face up and down slowly. He's looking at me. What the hell was that?
"You don't look at me. What unit are you in? Why are you hiding your face?"
"Um, um..."
"Don't stop, Julia."
I heard a man's voice. When I turned my gaze in that direction, there was Therma.
"Don't bother me."
"I'm telling you to stop. They're coming from Agarta. Don't be rude."
"Agarta ah!?"
I am surprised that a woman seems to slip away. Is it that surprising?
"Are you from Agarta?" Are you really from Agarta? "
...... Chi, you're close. What's wrong with making your eyes so glittery?!
"This is Lord Kensingh, who came at the behest of King Agarta." I won't be taking part in the battle directly, but I'm here to give you a lot of advice. Please don't be too coarse. "
Therma gave a dazed expression. A woman called Julia opens her mouth, looking alternately at Sawa and me.
"Why is Agarta here?"
"His Majesty sent Heida and Agarta for reinforcements." As a result, King Agarta sent us Lord Kensingh. This operation is also the wisdom of Lord Kensingh. "
"Is this man's plan to retreat from Castle Casa?" Aren't you stupid? "
... this woman named Julia, she's not afraid at all, and she says something rather sloppy. Well, I don't seem like a bad person, but I'm a little nasty. You're just stupid in front of your own eyes. But she keeps on saying things to me like that.
"Do you have any idea how we felt about protecting that castle?" How hard I've worked to protect you! I can't believe you gave it to your enemies...... "
“That's why I've explained it to you so many times. Bring the enemy into the castle, cut off the water and let the sun dry. That's the least costly thing to do."
……
The woman bites her lips and leans down. If you look closely, her robe is also quite dirty. Because it is dark blue, the dirt is not very noticeable, but there are parts that have been scratched off everywhere, and I can see that she added it to the beginning quite a bit.
"Leave the rest to us." Now, step back and rest. "
That's what Therma said, prompting her to step back and smiling bitterly at me.
"I'm so sorry. She... Julia was one of the magicians who packed Casa Castle, and it was thanks to their work that this castle held up.”
"I see. If that's the case, then the magic power will have been exhausted." Have a good rest. "
That's why I'm giving you back your bail. At that time, Julia thought if she remembered anything, or if she was shaking her body, she came to me with her big strands and drew her face closer.
What is that magic of yours?
"What are you saying...?"
"You were burning your fingertips, weren't you?" You left it in the firewood and set it on fire, didn't you? That condensed magic, didn't it? I'm the only one who can do that kind of advanced technology. Nonetheless, it didn't seem like he was chanting for that long. How the hell did you do that? "
... is this so difficult? This was the first magic I learned from Master Falco.
"Listen, Linos. Focus your magic power on your fingertips." Imagine a flame rising up. Imagine collecting heat from your body at your fingertips.... yes, there must be a flame. That's it. Now try moving your fingers as you imagine throwing it away from your fingertips.... why are you letting go! "
... nostalgic. Yes, the Master put out my fireball with his hand. Besides, the flame reached me as far as I could, and I was about to suffer a major burn. I had a reflexive barrier, so I had to suffer light burns all over my body.
However, my clothes burned and worn out. Later, the master shifted to Mr. Wallasa as much as he could. "Master, you were so perplexed..." It's a nostalgic memory.
... oh, no. I ran away from reality. We have to focus on what's right in front of us. Julia stared at me.
"No, it's just a fireball, so it's not that hard."
"Fireball? That's it? A fireball is what you wake up on your palm, right?"
"Is that so?" I was taught to make it at my fingertips..... "
"When did you learn?"
"I was about six or seven years old."
Yeah, that's it.
The woman is nodding in excitement as she combines her arms. Something's bothered me.
"First training to become a fire mage." That made sense. I imagine a flame on my fingertips. "Usually, I get training from there to put out a flame on my palm..." You didn't do that training?... no? So, you've learned all this? Heh ~ eh ~ "
The woman lifted her chin in a quiver as she put her arms together.
"Well then, you have a sense as a fire mage." Even though it's small, we can throw a fireball. It would be a big deal if I could get that far in my current. Fine, I'll teach you magic when I have time. As a fire mage, I'll smash the foundation into you. "
... again, I've got a bad feeling about this.
