"Morning, Ange"

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... Alec..."

I woke up with Ange in the morning sun.

I have slept in the same bed ever since she came to the mansion.

In the morning, the figure of Ange, who falls asleep and gets a little tongueless, also became an indispensable comma for everyday life, when she realizes it.

"Oh, I will."

"Yeah."

Ange's congratulations.

It's not like dark tea or coffee, Ange uses magic to make her aware.

Ange, who has been studying magic with me since she was six years old, has already followed the realm of applying magic at the age of ten.

An application of healing magic that forces drowsiness to blow away.

Ange puts her hands on me first and tries to use magic, as usual.

"... is that it?

"What's wrong, Ange?"

"I can't use magic..."

"Maybe you're tired again. Do you want to sleep a little more twice?

"Um, I did..."

Ange stuck with me.

The child Ange's body temperature is high enough to be soft everywhere and puffy.

"Ange's been with us forever."

The drowsiness seemed contagious this way.

I tried to go to bed again, but I noticed something noisy.

There is a rush outside the room.

I wondered what was going on, gently pulling Ange away, outside the room.

"Ah, Master Alec."

"Good morning, Amelia. Is something wrong?

When I opened the door and went out into the hallway, I heard the noise clearly loud.

Amelia, the maid I encountered, also looks in trouble.

"Actually, it's making a scene that everyone can't use magic."

"Magic?

"As Alec knows, some maids can use magic, and if they can do it efficiently at work, my husband has given me permission to use magic."

"Yeah, you are."

"They're all making a scene that they can't use magic in the morning."

"I can't use magic..."

I turned my back, over the door, and saw Ange's direction sleeping in the room.

Speaking of which, Ange wasn't able to use magic either.

... That's not a coincidence, something's left over.

I used magic to look at it.

Put your hands together and make a ball of flame over your palm.

Preliminary magic, flaming magic.

"Oh, wow. Master Alec can use it normally."

"Yeah, it's not normal."

"Huh?"

"Me too, the magic is about half normal."

What the hell is going on?

"Ahhh!?

I heard screams from afar.

This voice... Mia!

I ran out.

Follow the scream and run through the hallway where the maid is in trouble by the way.

Shortly after I put the two corners together, Mia's room door was open, so I went inside.

"What's going on, Mia?"

"Dear Alec - Ahhh!?

I had eyes with me, Mia screamed a second time.

She was in her underwear in the room.

White underwear full of luxury and cleanliness, with nothing else on.

When I saw it, Mia hid it with her hands and screamed.

"Sorry, Mia, right now -"

"What's wrong - oh"

Likewise, Mother, invited by Mia's screams, came to see how things were going.

My mother used to look at me and Mia from outside the room and how things were in the room.

"Ugh."

And I closed the door.

"That's not what I meant, Mother!

I slammed into the grand, opened the door and jumped out into the hallway.

The mansion's office, me with you on Father.

There was Amelia before us, and she's been reporting with a troubled face.

"As always, the wizard is wiped out. Lady Mia's dress disappeared immediately after the restoration repeatedly, and we prepared everyday clothes because they can't be worn substantially. And."

"And?"

"Master Calamity is resting complaining of ill health"

"Thank you... it's Alec"

"Yeah, it sounds like something's happening that inhibits magic."

"What about Alec?

"I guess I'm about half normal."

That's how I flamed it.

I feel handed in a similar way to running with lead on my hands and feet, but the magic doesn't make it completely unusable.

"Mmm, you think Alec's half? Half the time, Alec is a hero, but this is unforgivable."

Father was seriously outraged.

At least say it jokingly when you're in that kind of dialogue - I almost hope, but I've been your father's son for ten years, and I can see your father is serious about that.

"What's the cause?

"I don't know what caused it..."

I circled around the room.

I stood up and circled the room all the way.

"What's up, Alec?"

"This one's a little less influential."

Me standing at the corner of the room.

He put a ball of flame in his palm as if it were a candle and went toward the corner that was on the diagonal with it raised.

"Huh, the flames are smaller"

Father groans.

As you can see from the side, the balls of flame became smaller.

"I see. That's right, Alec, you have a culprit in that direction, don't you?

"Maybe."

"Amelia, I command everyone in the mansion, to search this direction."

"Okay."

"Wait."

I called Amelia.

"What's up, Alec?"

"Let the wizard go on the other side. If the culprit is one, the sphere of influence is likely to be circular. Maybe we can find a radius at the opposite end where magic can be used."

"Oh! I see, that's Alec!

"Okay."

Only this time Amelia went from the office to convey the order.

Wait long enough.

"Sir! Dear Alec!"

"Found it!

"Yes! But..."

"Show me."

"Yes!"

Led by Amelia, my father and I left the office, also out of the mansion, and stepped down into the garden.

As he entered the small woods on the mansion grounds, he noticed that there were various servants of the mansion there.

"Ah! Dear Alec"

It's Alec.

"Master Alec is here!

Moment after moment, the servants cheered.

Everyone looks at me and cheers.

"Yeah, yeah."

My father, who saw it, nodded loudly as he wrapped his arms around it.

Normal aristocrats almost get angry there, Father.

We're putting that scratch behind us and moving on in front of the servants.

Under a wooded tree, there was a huge colony - a nest of worms.

Coming out of the nest is...

"Pillbug!?

"Are you the bugs that are doing evil right now?

My father listened and I nodded quietly.

There was a hokey hit broken sword hit spear shot around the gyoza pillbug.

Looks like the servants have already tried to get rid of it and have failed.

"I think this is the cause. Once the Wizards have measured the distance they can use all the way around them, that's where the center is."

"I see. Pillbugs do eat 'power,' and that could be the reason."

That's what I said, I was a step forward.

"Do you do it, Alec?"

My father asked.

"Yeah, you can't just leave me like this."

"Right. All right, get your booze and knobs ready, I'll see Alec brave"

Father is too relaxed...... and now that he has penetrated, I proceeded quietly and headed towards the pillbug's nest.

You sensed my proximity, the whole bug flew in.

I grabbed my fist, and I hit him.

Slash by punch.

It's a punch that's been hitting and slaughtering the bugs nesting in the countryside.

"- Huh?"

The punch didn't work.

Pilbug was beaten up, but not slashed.

I have never been able to slash 100% before.

No way physics either......

"Hehe, hehe, hehe"

I heard a woman laugh from the nest.

Shortly afterwards, a pill bug appeared larger than the other pill bugs.

"Physical attacks no longer work on us."

"... the queen"

A special female individual, reminiscent of the ecology of the worm and only big in one piece.

Queen, the word came to mind naturally.

"I don't know. I'm the queen of this nest."

"What do you mean, physical attacks don't work?

"It means exactly what you say. We evolve so that every physical attack doesn't work. Yes, it evolved at the expense of your fellow countrymen who were killed by you."

……

Run silently.

Pick up the falling sword and slash the worm.

Grab the spear and stick sharply.

I'm not responding.

Neither slaughter nor spike work at all.

Bugs strike.

Multiple bodies jumped at me at once.

Counter while dashing, swing through the full punch.

The punch did capture the worm, but it didn't work at all and was rather pushed by the worm.

Fly aside and slam the bugs.

"Ha ha, I said it's no use. We no longer have any physical attack whatsoever, whether it be a blow or a slaughter. And the magic within this range sealed like the Zakos who came to the exorcism after eating bubbles. also we are invincible!

The giggling queen, the bugs resonated with it.

"Come on, humans, show your faces of despair!

"The sausage is a little overcooked. Boil looks good, so get more ready."

"Yes, sir."

"... what humans are doing!

The queen was furious at her father, who completely relaxed and placed an order on the dish.

"You know the situation! You humans..."

That's where Mother appeared.

"Oh, my God, you were here."

"Oh, just fine. You see where Alec works, too."

"Oh."

"Uhh" ah "ah" ah "ah" ah "ah" ah "ah"! "

The queen was completely clean (,,).

I also feel a little pathetic. Father's. No offense, but it didn't accumulate on the party.

but that's why I can't even sympathize.

Interrupt between your father and the bug that runs onto your mother, grab it and stop it.

"Out of the way - guhhh!

The queen slumped and lagged behind.

I suppress a part of my body and get a stunned look.

"And it's melting... he said it's magic"

"Yeah, magic"

"Stupid, magic is..."

I'm sorry to hear that. I can still use it.

Bo... Bo... Bo... Bo...

The pill bugs around him burst into flames one after the other and melted away.

With the effect of the pillbug's nest halved my magic, I thought I couldn't use my wasted magic, locked it to all the bugs, and punched magic in with a pinpoint.

Bug nests, nests huge enough to be colonies, and the number of insects is also slightly over a thousand.

I burned them all to pinpoint.

"Fuck, shit. Ahhh..."

The last queen to rush, too, burned out along the way, leaving only the aftermath of screaming and disappearing.

"Um, that's Alec"

"That's Alec."

My father and mother clapped their hands and honored me.

The two Nori were light as usual. Even if a later investigation and analysis found the outbreak of Queen Pilbug to be disaster-class,

"Oh! That's Alec!

"Our hope, our pride."

The tension of praise only increased, and I knew Nori was light.

It's not as easy as this.
