The Magus of Genesis

Episode 20 Nesting/Becoming Independent

"Everyone, it's morning. Yikes! I'm gonna wake up!

Cancuncan, and is struck with bright red metal. I've been using it for hundreds of years now, and it was a frying pan made of hihihirokane.

"Father, Nina, it's a beautiful day!

"Mmm... good morning, Cruse..."

The curtain is drawn with a shuddering sound, narrowing his eyes to the glare of light that plugs in.

"Good morning, Father."

Wrapped in an overflowing morning sun, Cruse laughed.

"Hmm...... is that it? Cruse."

He bites off his yawn as he slowly rises next to me, and Nina raises a strange voice.

"Not growing?

"What, are you serious!?

When Cruse jumps up, he hurries to the living room and takes back the tape.

"Father, Father, please measure!

"Yes, sir. Stop stretching your back, because you can't accurately measure it."

I scratch the columns to match the back length of the cruse as I mock her excited.

"Oh, it's true. It's only two centimeters longer than when I measured it forward. Uh... one hundred and thirty-three centimeters."

"Yay! It's been ten years since I've grown, Father!

Cruse jumped pimply and expressed his joy.

"Recently, I guess the average height is about ten years old."

Stretching out your body all the way, Nina. Cruse's real age is just sixty this year. As usual, growth is unstable, but the trend seemed to be slowing down year after year.

"I thought you wouldn't be stretching anymore."

"Maybe a hundred years from now."

To Nina, who giggles, Cruse suppresses her head and roars.

"My hair's getting a lot pink, too."

I took that long stretched hair and I squeaked. Cruse's hair, which was straight golden when she was born, grew stronger in pink every time and became a fluffy, wavy habit.

I used to think it looked pink when I watered it down to the day, but now it's totally pink blonde enough to tell even when I see it in the dark.

"Then let's have breakfast! I made it Nina's favorite baked fish today!

"Yes, sir."

Cruse jumps right and pulls Nina's hand. Nina did what she wanted, but she followed suit.

"Well, I guess I'll wake up with the sleeping assistants."

Unexpectedly loosening my face to that smiling sight, I head to the room of the rest of the inhabitants who will not be awake for long.

"Ah, Father"

On its back, the voice of Cruse was thrown.

"What is it?

"Maybe we should both wake up."

The advice was only seconds late. By the time I heard that, I had already twisted the door knob and had exposed the contents of a newly built room recently.

Yuka and Lynn, and I stopped moving as if time had stopped.

"……… I think I'm just getting dressed."

With the words of Cruse, the crushing noise rang.

"I'm sorry, Seike-... does it still hurt?

"No, I'm fine. I didn't knock. It's my fault."

To Lynn, who looked worried, I replied with a smile.

Water bullets released unchanging and motionless are inevitable. The belly that took a direct hit was still slightly dull and sore to be honest, but I acted as if it was nothing.

"I don't think your father has enough delicacies."

"Yeah, not at all, it's not up to me."

Saying it like it was a shame, Cruse handed me Pompom and rice by the tea bowl.

"Fair enough, Cru. I don't give a shit."

"I think Sister Yu should care a little more..."

Back to back with phosphorus screaming and reflexively releasing water bullets, Yuka kept dressing intact without the appearance of concealing her body.

"We're always looking at each other naked in the bath."

"I was in there with your father thirty years ago!

Cruse exclaimed to Nina, who seemed to scowl over the polypoly and pickles.

At that time, Cancun, the bell rings.

"Is that it? Is that time already?

"…… No, it's not"

Tell Lynn to lean his neck, and I'll take a seat.

"This is the sound of a bell that informs you of a disaster."

If you look next door, Yuka is already ready with her sword on her back. On the contrary, they even clean up their meals. When the hell?

Let's go.

I'm still on my way, but not if I'm saying so. My beloved daughter made me a meal I decided to eat later and we popped out of the room.

"…… a fire!

As we went outside, me and Yuka shouted from either side to the black smoke that stood up.

"Wait, I'm going too!

Lynn appeared from behind, turning Basari and his hands into wings.

"Fly!

Try to grab onto that shoulder, me and Yuka exercise magic. Doing so added propulsion and allowed me to run through the air faster than flying alone.

Fire is one of the most horrifying disasters in the city. Hiiro Village buildings are basically brick and fire resistant, but it doesn't mean they have furniture or use wood at all. The flames burn quickly, causing numerous casualties.

Not to mention when that becomes a spiritual disaster, the danger jumps extraordinarily. Because willed flames prefer destruction and confusion, burning whether bricks or stones.

"- That's not good."

And things seemed to suck. A flame dancing to lick the building is playing with fun. It was, obviously, the appearance of a willing spirit.

"Yuka, Lynn. I'll take care of that spirit. Can you please evacuate and follow me?

There is one way to ensure that the Spirit of Fire is stopped. It's about me becoming a dragon and swallowing it. But there is no way that a building that burns and becomes brittle can support a giant that spans dozens of meters. The building will be flashly broken and scattered with a massive secondary disaster, but how much better than letting the Spirit of Fire go wild.

"Wait, let it go!

Lynn stopped me from trying to turn into a dragon without waiting for a response.

"That!"

There are countless black shadows running ahead of that gaze.

"Is that............!?

The shadow pops into the building without cowering into the flames, holding the children beside them and jumping out. A flaming spirit noticed it jumped off the roof and sprayed fire from his mouth.

However, the flame was prevented by a large metal mass standing up. When both hands reach out from a metal mass lit by flames and glowing dull, and stand up on both legs to look like a person, they snap the flaming Spirit in a huge palm of their hand.

And there, a brilliant wind of light poured down. When that white, shining breeze blows through, the flames quickly dissipate as if they had swept away the fallen leaves with a shovel.

"Jack Frost."

And when the brilliance came together and became one giant snowman, it opened its three-moon-shaped mouth wide.

"Eat -"

He swallowed up the Spirit of Fire thrown by the Iron Doll.

By the time we get there, the neighborhood will be completely quiet and I don't see any firepowder. The building was also somewhat coal-fired, but it didn't seem to collapse enough.

"Get there quickly."

Fluffy sofas fly in and say with a tone that Innis teases.

"Jack, you were amazing."

hold Jack Frost, shrunk to the size of a stuffed animal, Mel grinned,

"Rescue complete! From what I've seen, I don't know if anyone's been seriously injured, but I'm taking them to the hospital just in case."

Follow countless shadows and Ala will report it correctly at the fold.

"... yeah. Thank you. You rushed here, but there was no curtain for us to leave."

"No! This, too, is a gift of your teacher's guidance!

Now, I'm going to check to see if there's any overlooks, so I put it aside and Ala and the others went back to work.

"……… Surprised."

The magic of a shadow, which creates a split body.

Iron doll moving in grant magic.

And the Ice Spirit Jack Frost.

Every one of them is a technique I know well, too, and I knew they were training for disaster.

But - so handy so far, I can't believe I let them just clean it up.

"So the cruces will grow bigger."

Pompous, Yuka whines about it.

There was a complicated look on his face.

"Maybe we couldn't have cleaned it up so beautifully."

"Right..."

It's like I'm happy, sad, lonely, that...

"It's time for this village...... no. Maybe the time has come for this country to leave my hand."

I'm sure it's the same look I'm floating around right now.
