Will 7 years old winter.


I was growing up, absorbing the teachings of the gods.
On Water Dragon Day, Ronin's Sword Art Workshop, on Fire Dragon Day, Miria's Healing Class, and on Wood Dragon Day, Vandal's Magic Class.

So today we will learn magic from Father Vandal.

You'll be able to learn how to use them, and you'll be able to use them as well. You don't just decoct a random herb like Milia does.

First of all, you are required to read history books as a classroom lesson.

Why not a book on witchcraft but a history book?

One day, wondering about being made to read a book that has nothing to do with magic at all, I ask, "What is the basis of magic?

"The basis of magic lies in knowledge. To understand the vast system of magic, you need a basic knowledge.

Besides," continues Vandal, "I want you to be smart.

I want you to be smart. I want you to be a wizard who can learn more and see the big picture. So we'll start with the basics.

The Vandal first taught me to read and write, and then told me about the origins of this world and the history of this country.

This kingdom of Midonia is a historic power at the center of the world. As the center of the world, it has always been embroiled in warfare, but Table Mountain is the only inviolable territory of nations. Do you know why?

"Because Vandal Dad and his friends are there?

That's right. This Table Mountain is inhabited by gods. Instead of interfering with the world below, it has an unwritten law that the nations below do not interfere either.

The "Friction Ratio?

That's a hard word for a child to say. Simply put, there's a rule.

I know the routine. Dad Ronin's rule was to drink a drink every day. Milia's routine is to wear a skin pack every day.

My rule is to read a book every day.

Yes, I try to read at least one book every day, just like your father Vandal.

Isn't it great?

And the Vandal tries to hand me a book, but I balk.

'You read a book every day, don't you?　Then you will come up short. Next time I'm in town, I'll buy you a new one. Just be patient with this one for now.

No, it's not. I read it every day with my dad, Vandal.

"What?　With me?

I point to a thick book in the Vandal's study.

"I read this yesterday.

I pointed to a grimoire called the Book of Fire Dragons, written by the ancient sorcerer Kal Rahab.

No way, this was written in the ancient magical language.

"Ancient magical language," says Father Vandal, "you talk a lot.

It was a soliloquy. Don't tell me you deciphered it.

"Yes!

And nodded vigorously.

I can't believe it. Is it true?

Really. Okay, let me guess. Let me know the appropriate page.

"Then page 211

"211 or the passage on fire magic written by Cal Rahab. It's an original by Khal Rahab. Let's see, the chanting words are 'يجوبان، لهب جوبان، لهب جوبان، لهب'.

The Vandal is checking the Book of Fire Dragons.

"...... that's right. Will, did you read and memorize this difficult book in just one day?

"It was gibberish inside, so I worked very hard to learn it. You can always read it in your head once you know it, right?

Vandal widened his narrow eyes and murmured, "This kid is a genius ......".

...... unbelievable.

Still murmuring, I try to make the Vandal believe me.

In some ways I still don't understand, but the book made me able to do magic. Look.

Then I open the window and point outside.
I point outside the house and shoot a spell at the rocks outside.
The magic of the flaming storm. It's Firestorm.

From my hand a small flame shoots out, whirling as it nears the rock.

When it surrounded the rock, there was a flame storm.
The flames burned bright and strong.



What, Will, do you think you can use the Flame Storm at your age?

Vandal looks astonished, but I've been working my magic without a care in the world.


Seeing Will having fun with his magic, Vandal thinks, "This boy is a genius.

This kid is a genius.

Normally, a child learns magic as early as seven years old.

Usually a child learns magic as early as seven years old, starting with the basics like "Ignite" and "Telekinesis" and learning the "Fireball" magic at around ten years old.

But the boy is able to master the flame storm at the age of seven.

Moreover, the spell was not taught by the Vandal, but learned it on its own.

Vandal was not such a handy child.

This boy is a gem that surpasses the magician Kirinji Vandal, who was claimed to be one of the best in hundreds of years.

Honestly, I didn't care about the Vandal when the all-powerful god Reus brought her to me. He didn't frolic like Ronin or Milia. No, on the contrary, I remember the baby was fussy and disgusted.

But look at that. In fact, touching the human child, Will, changed my mind.

Knowing that there was a human child in this world with more talent and potential than him made the old tree's blood boil.

Maybe this child could reach the truth of magic.

Mumbling.

Many sorcerers have challenged the wisest sorcerers of the highest intelligence to reach the truth of magic, and this boy may be able to reach the truth of magic that they could not reach after all.

Thinking this, Vandal relaxed his cheeks.

The fact that he is not the one to reach the truth is annoying, but it doesn't make him as jealous as he thought.

Seeing Will's carefree smile blows those thoughts away.

The thought of your son surpassing you is all I can feel.

"Countless wise men who have once challenged the truth of magic. I now proclaim that my son is the wizard. My son is the fulfillment of the sorcerer's dream.

Vandal, the god of magic, exclaimed in his heart and embraced his beloved son.
