Is practicing magic power difficult?
Although banned, the magic formula of the talismans was quite interesting. It was only developed in Japan, where magic power is scarce, so it was very lean. It was quite instructive just looking at it.
“Quickly, do as the law says!! Ginyaaaa!?”
Rinka seemed to have trouble controlling her magic power due to what seemed to be a sudden increase in the amount of her magic power. The flames were about to burst out when the flow of her magic power went backward. It was dangerous, so I changed the direction of the flame by synchronizing our magic powers a little bit. Rinka's flames changed their form to flowers and then to birds. The last bird slowly dissipated the magic power into the atmosphere.
“...... Rin Neechan.”
“N?”
“How can you usurp someone else’s spell like that!? That’s impossible!!”
“No, it’s simple, you know?”
“”It’s not!!””
Rinka and Ten-chan denied me. No, it is not difficult to take over if you are in perfect sync, you know?
“Rin Neechan, it’s weird! I have been studying this properly, you know!? I have been training for ten whole years and yet… is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person!?”
“No, you are a genius too, Rinka…… Rin Neechan is simply abnormal.”
“That’s rude! I have also put a great effort in learning!”
Ten-chan's words hurt my feelings. I had studied magic and practiced it properly!
“I studied magic diligently, I even overcame the Sage in practice, I read all magic books in his room and blew up that very room in experiment. I get mad at his dirty room and blow up his whole room from time to time, too.”
“It’s mostly the fella called Sage getting blown up, I see…”
“Is that person okay? Survival-wise.”
“He’s a gramps living happily surrounded by his beautiful wife and adorable children.”
“”I guess he can live forever after experiencing something like that.””
Rinka and Ten-chan looked at me distantly. The Sage is a Sage, so it can't be helped. He makes his room messy, even if I clean it up. But apparently, he doesn’t make a mess nowadays because it would be dangerous to the children. I heard that he has become a very nurturing gramps… no, nurturing papa? He's a father now, after all. People change.
Putting all that aside, I decided to teach Rinka how to control her magic power.
“Rinka, try bobbling the magic power.”
“What do you mean?”
“You do it like this…”
The magic power is solidified and made into a ball. The ball is then given an attribute. Then, the other attributes were mixed and compressed to make the ball disappear.
“Example done.”
“Impossible!”
“Isn’t that too difficult?”
“Well, aim to do two attributes at first. You don’t have to do the compression for now.”
Rinka took it seriously, but………
“Gyoahghh!?”
It broke.
“Funyaaaah!?”
The magic power spurted out like air from a balloon with a hole in it.
“Gohaaaaadrtz!?”
Finally, it burst. It was a spectacular failure.
“I can’t do it… Andrew sensei… basketball… I want to play basketball…”
“If you give up now, the game will end here (in uselessly ikemen voice).”
“... So, what are you going to do? It’s unlikely for Rinka to do it.”
“”Read the mood.””
“It's Rinka who needs to be able to do it! I mean, I don't understand why you want to play basketball now!”
A sound argument.
“What did you say, you bastard! You don't know that legendary basketball manga that was even made into an anime!?”
“I know it, but you've got to be serious!”
“I can't help but feel dumb after messing up so much!!”
Rinka and Ten-chan are good friends today as well.
Rinka has a habit of always releasing her magic power at full force, probably because she lived in Japan, where magic power was almost non-existent. I gently touched both of Rinka's hands as she laid sprawled on the ground.
“Rinka, relax your powers~”
“Eh!? What is this!?”
“Don't go against the flow, slowly~ Take a deep breath~ Hihifuu~”
I let my magic flow into Rinka. In sync, I created a ball of magic power.
“Hah, hah… I mean, hihifu~ wait, isn’t that breathing for smooth delivery!?”
Perhaps my playfulness relaxed her strength, and the magic power began to flow smoothly. One, two, three… more balls of magic power that were stable and unbreakable formed on her hands.
“Yup, now do it yourself.”
“......... Okay…”
Rinka seemed to have gotten the hang of it and was able to make up to six magic balls without my assistance.
“Then, try the talisman next.”
“Ueeh… I will give it a try.”
Rinka was easily able to adjust the power.
“What was that all about?”
“I don’t understand myself.”
Rinka and Ten-chan tilted their heads. She was just getting the hang of controlling her magic, and after repeated failures, the difference between her magic power and the one she had in mind was almost gone.
“Next up is an actual battle.”
“Ehh, A… alright.”
“Alrighty. Then I'm going to do a little 'procurement'.”
I said that and went to look for my prey. I could be the one, but if it's a human, she might get scared... I was looking for something not too strong, not too weak.. Now, what should I procure?
