It feels strange.

Breathe quietly and repeatedly as usual.

Take in traces of magic drifting through the atmosphere into your body through your breath.

And I imagine that airborne magic and the magic that I absorbed from food also mix in my belly with the magic that springs up from my body.

Now condense its magic, which was evenly and unnecessarily mixed.

Until then, it was still a fluffy gas, transforming the magic into a liquid, and then enriching the liquid until it wandered.

I've had this magic workout since I first started working in the field, and my body had already done these tasks almost unconsciously.

But lately, I started adding more hassle to it.

Since the hand of the meme implanted the homogeneous demonic stone I reproduced with magic around the umbilical area based on the Shizukuishi demonic stone that was removed from Carlos' body.

Usually he tried to pump extremely concentrated liquid-like magic from his body's head to his arms to the tip of his leg.

But now it's a little different.

Send it into Shizuku-shaped Demon Stone, implanted with concentrated magic in your belly.

A demonic stone that takes in the magic of your body at will, even if you are unconscious.

Despite being a small demonic stone, it accumulates more and more.

And the magic accumulated in this demonic stone never mists from the skin, and it stays in the body.

What a good way to describe it.

Until now, my body had been able to create magic, but the magic I had made was always throwing away old things and using new ones.

Tell me, is it like a power plant?

A device that uses food such as food to create magic.

This new large battery was installed in a facility specializing in making it.

Up until now, where all I had to do was make it, there was a built-in battery that allowed me to store electricity.

Of course, there is probably a limit to the capacity to accumulate magic in this battery type Shizukuishi-type demon stone.

But in an instant, the amount of magic I can use is the amount of magic I've manufactured plus the amount of magic I've saved.

It can also be said that the total magic power has finally increased.

And there is magic that has been newly activated due to the increased amount of magic that can be used at a time.

Top magic unlike the Fontana family's top magic [Ice Essence Summoning].

It is a magic located at the top of the life magic that has been named and made available to the Church.

I mean, it was restorative magic.

"Recovery"

Recovery magic that suddenly became available the moment the amount of magic increased and the rank rose.

I decided to use it on my body quickly.

Surgery performed by the meme leaves surgical marks on my body's abdomen.

The scar disappeared by [recovery].

Success.

Apparently, he succeeded in healing the wound safely.

"Steady, it took you quite a while to get your healing magic"

Even as I saw the phenomenon of my body wounds healing in an instant, I was thinking about that.

It was many years ago when Bishop Paul was acting as a single priest in the church in the village of Barca, when his magic power soared and his rank rose due to the influence of a magic pass from me to obtain his position as bishop.

However, this seems to be only the exception and largely the level at which restorative magic can be used by those in a position at the top of the church in one noble territory.

But it is believed that Bishop Paul was elevated by the influence of a magic pass connected to me and the magic of Valkyrie.

In that sense, I thought I'd be able to use healing magic one of these days with more magic.

but i think it took longer than i thought.

Actually, this was also a downside to the magic training I've been doing since I was a kid.

There were advantages and disadvantages to condensing the magic generated in the body and filling it with flesh.

The intense magic had strengthened the physical surface over normal.

That's why my kid, who was only a single-digit old man, couldn't beat me for dealing with a knight with a lot of magic, our main class, etc.

but there was the aspect that over-concentrated magic would be less than normal if you tried magic.

Normally, for example, ten concentrates the magic power that should be there, to about one degree, and the quality rises, but the amount simply means that it has been reduced to one tenth.

And the ability to acquire magic by name, especially superior magic, is determined by the amount of magic.

This means that I did not meet the criterion of the amount of magic that would enable me to use superior magic by virtue of the magic that I was focusing on quality to gain physical strength.

That was solved by this Shizuku-shaped demon stone.

It is recognized that the storage of a large amount of magic in the body has increased the total amount of magic, which means that [recovery], the top magic of the church, is now available.

"Meme, do you have a minute?

"What's wrong? Something wrong?"

"No, I'm not. The experiment was a success. But don't do this surgery any more. Demon Stone Embedding Ceremony shall be prohibited in the future. All right?"

"... okay? I think this is a procedure that makes sense to my comrades."

"Because it makes too much sense. Or go on with it any further. The knights that Meme operated on will rise in rank. Then they think there's just some reason. You're going to be wasted on exploration, too."

"But is that going to make me inoperable in the future? It must also mean a lot to comrades to be able to increase the magic power of the knights. You think you're gonna throw that away?

"No, I don't have a problem with that. I already remember."

"Remember? What do you remember?

"It's where the demon stone is embedded. From now on, I don't need to have surgery. I'll build the magic stone directly into your body."

Me saying no more surgery on Meme.

In contrast, I approach memes that are not immediately satisfactory.

So he reached for the meme, and pressed his right hand against its belly.

Breathe well and manipulate the magic.

Send my magic into the belly of the meme, and create the Demon Stone.

He succeeded in creating a Shizuku-shaped demon stone to the subject's abdomen without surgery to open his belly and create a wound like a meme.

"No way..., I didn't expect to magically substitute for surgery"

"This shouldn't leave any scratches, so it should be hard to be noticed that you've been implanted with demon stones just by looking at your body. In the future, I will implant demon stones in this way for the knights. It's bad for memes, but this experiment can't be put on the table. Unlike human anatomy, please refrain from presenting."

"... well, I know exactly that this is dangerous technology. It's just a shame you can't keep it as a result of your research."

"I'm sorry. Well, I'll keep the research costs up for that, so give me a break."

Thus, the secret study of me and Meme ended with certain results.

And I decided to use the magic of this demon stone implantation ceremony for the Barca knights.
