18 Chapter 17: Magic.txt




 Bellamus gathered the goblins and began to explain to them about magic.

"Anyone can learn to use magic to some extent if they are trained. We'll start with the basics, the basics of light magic. First we need to see a successful spell before we can use it. I'll be using the lights, so watch closely.

 Then you will use Light's magic in front of the goblins.

"I want you to imagine yourself using this magic in your mind.

 To cast a spell, you need to see the successful spell and then have an exact image in your mind of what it will do.

Once you have the image, say the word 'light' in your mouth.

 Once you have an accurate image, say the name of the magic, and the magic is activated.
 You can either say it with your mouth or in your head, but as a beginner, you will be taught to say it with your mouth at first, because if you don't, the image will fall apart.

 The goblins begin to say "light".
 However, not many of them are able to activate it properly from the start.
 Most of them have failed or the light is too small or didn't come out in the first place.

''Yuck! I got it!

 Something about Delarosa was making a joyful noise.
 Bellamus looked at Delarosa and saw a bright ball of light forming above her head.

''Ho. Did you do it on the first try?
Bright nay!

 Not many can do it the first time.
 Goblins have a natural habitat. Delarosa may have magical instincts, Bellamus guessed.

 Then I'll show you how to turn off the light.
 They turn off automatically after a period of time, but if you want them to go off right now, you must visualize them going off. Surprisingly, this is not easy.
 However, Delarosa seems to have made it easy to turn them off.
 Then you can turn them on and off again. She seems to be able to control it at will.

 It's very rare to see a magical genius at work here.
 Vellums is frankly impressed.

 There are no other goblins available.

 But that doesn't mean there aren't goblins with magical abilities.

 There are many cases where a goblin starts out normal but later develops a talent.
 On the other hand, Delarosa's type is more rare.

Delarosa's great. I couldn't do anything at all.

 Aretha seemed to be having a hard time.

"Veraamsud. Teach the other Mahou.
Wait a minute. I'll tell you when everyone else is ready.
Yeah!

 If I teach it as it is, I'll have to teach it to only Delarosa alone, so Vellums says so .

 Delarosa looks dissatisfied, but her expression changes as she says, "A, so da.
 She's got something on her mind.

 And .

Water cannon!

 That's what he said. At the moment Delarosa said that, a bullet of water formed and flew forward at great speed.

Yeah! It's done!

 Belamus would have been surprised.

De LaRosa. How can you use a water cannon?
Ummm, I saw a guy use it on Vellums. I don't know if I'm good at it.

(I did use water cannon magic in front of Delarosa when I was farming, but I didn't expect to be able to use the magic I used ...... quite some time ago so easily.

 Delarosa uses other magic, such as small cloud and rock blast, with a surprised Bellamus at her back.

 After that, her magic power seems to have run out or she can no longer use her magic.

"That's great, that Delarosa guy. Isn't she a genius?
Yes. ......
That's my girl! ...... No, I can't even use the light yet.

 Aretha has a complicated look on her face, as she's happy that her daughter can use magic, but it's a bit pathetic that she can't use it herself.

(Genius, that's for sure . If she continues to evolve, she could even become a high sage goblin, the final evolutionary form of the wizard system.

 Bellamus thinks so when he sees Delarosa.
 Incidentally, evolution branches off along the way.

 Goblins that are good at magic evolve into magic goblins and those that are good at non-magical combat evolve into soldier goblins.
 There are four final evolutionary forms of goblins, and only goblins that are extremely good at magic can become High Sage Goblins.

 After practicing for two days, the other goblins have learned to use light magic as well.

 I taught them other spells as well, and they all learned to use simple attack magic.
 Incidentally, even outside of Delarosa, child goblins learn magic faster than adults and can use quite a variety of magic.
 It is easier to grow up with children than with adults, no matter what.

 After learning basic magic, I decided to stop teaching magic for a while.
 I wanted to build the wall since I hadn't built it yet, and since the orcs had cut down the trees and opened up a lot of usable land, I wanted to farm more land and do other things.

 Delarosa was not happy, but Bellamus persuaded her by saying, "Practice increasing your magical power first.
 In the end, no matter what talents you have, your magic power can only grow through simple practice.


 Delarosa is a little disgruntled, but I was able to convince her .
 Now she's working hard to increase her magical power by repeatedly using the light's magic to turn it off and on.

 Then, to make the village safer, Vellums began to build a barrier.
