305-277 Class at orphanage (3)




"...... Well, okay. Let's see if you can do some magic.

So, Nao. How are you going to do that?

Hmm. I think the only way to know if you can use magic is if you can manipulate it. I think the key to being able to use magic is being able to manipulate it, and being able to sense it.

Right. Continue?

In other words, if you use magic while in contact, you can at least tell if you can sense magic or not. Like this.

 In the event that you have any kind of questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at our own web site.

I'm sure you'll be able to tell from the way I've used it. ...... I could definitely feel the magic moving through me, but can you tell from this?

 I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.
 I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this.

You can try it out. I'm not sure what to do with it.

And my magic. You can't do everything by yourself, right? Light magic?

Oh, there it is. I need your help.

Okay. --Let's do it. You seem to be expecting it.

 The children's eyes sparkled as they looked at us, probably because of my magic, even though it was simple.

 I'm sure I'll be more popular than Toya soon.

"Okay. All right, let's line up. In order.

 And so the experiment - or was it training? And so began the experiment - or training?



"...... Mmm. This is a strikeout, huh?

 I tried fire, water, wind, earth, light, and magic with about five kids, but all of them just twisted their heads and couldn't feel anything.

 Gordon was the first one to try it, but it didn't seem to work, and he laughed and said, "It's not so convenient after all.

 It's not going to make me popular, is it?

It's only natural, considering the percentage of people who can use magic. --Remy's next. Give me a hand.

 Haruka stands behind Remy, who has taken his turn, and takes her hand like a drudgery, and uses magic.

 And then, as soon as he tried to let go of her hand...

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.
"Oh, really?
Yeah. ...... Oh, again!

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and how to get there.

 If I can sense magic, I can recognize it, but if I can't, I wouldn't recognize it.
 But Remy seemed to be able to recognize it. .......

I'm sure you'll have a lot of questions.

I'm not sure if it's a hit or a miss, but I'm pretty sure Remy is aware of the magic of light magic.

Really?

I'm not sure what to say.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

 I'm not sure what to do.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm sure you've heard that Remy can use light magic.
"Yes, yes. It's a possibility, that's all.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

But it's still a great thing, isn't it! Oh, Remy's future is as a priest! Thank you, Lord Adversus!



 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and the best way to get in touch with your loved ones, you can call us at the web site.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

 I'm not sure what to make of that.

No, not at all. It is said that the more religious you are, the more likely you are to receive light magic, so it is inevitable that ......

"The more religious you are, the more likely you are to receive light magic. ...... I see.

 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

 I'm not sure what to make of it. Faith.
 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

(What do you think?)

(Well, ......, if there are a number of people with magical qualities, what do you think the chances are that one of them will be apprenticed to a wizard with the same qualities?

 I was not convinced, and Haruka brought up such a metaphor when I asked her that.

 Assuming that there is one fire, one water, one wind, one earth, and one light wizard among 100 people, what are the odds that five of them would want to become wizards and would be lucky enough to be apprenticed to a wizard with the same qualities?

 In human society, where the number of wizards is small, .......

(It's ridiculously low, not to mention ...... think about it.)

(Right?) But what are the odds that one of the orphans has the makings of a light magician? (And what are the odds that the orphanage has a priest who can use light magic?

 In the previous metaphor, if there are 100 orphans, there is at least one with light magic.

 Furthermore, considering that there are a certain number of priests who can use light magic, the probability of finding such a priest in an orphanage is not low.

 Incidentally, Ishka can also use light magic, so...

(Inevitably, the probability of finding a wizard who can use light magic in the orphanage will increase?

(Probably.)

 And with the relationship between the priest and the orphan, it's unlikely that he would refuse an apprenticeship.

"(By the way, even if you're not an orphan, if you're a person of high faith who visits the temple frequently, your chances of being exposed to the magic used by the priest will also increase, right?

(Taking all of this together, it's not surprising that people who are involved in temples tend to be light magic users.

 Simple probability theory.

 If you examine all people, you may find that religious belief is irrelevant, but if you consider the probability of becoming an apprentice of a light magic user, people with religious belief will have an overwhelming advantage.

"Well, ......, Nao? May I?


"Oh, yes.

 As I was sneaking around with Haruka, Ishka approached me in a reserved manner.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.

 I'm sure she'd like to check out the other children's possibilities now that she's had some success with Remy.

 As for me, if this will lead to the future of orphans, I have no reason to refuse.

I don't mind that, but ...... it's going to be tough for us to do it alone. Let's get Natsuki and the others to help us.

Please!

 You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.

 The moment I told them that Remy might be able to use magic, there was a stir among the children.

 Then, as Ishka led them, they formed a line in front of us...

After all, there were two of us.
"Yes! That's more than enough. Thank you very much.

 In addition to Remy, an eight-year-old boy named Milo reacted to earth magic and a seven-year-old girl named Amber reacted to water magic, according to a check conducted with the help of Natsuki and Yuki.

 Still, Ishka seemed happy and thanked us with a bright smile.

But just because you might be able to use it doesn't mean you'll be able to use it as an adventurer. I've told you both that.

 Being able to use magic and being able to use it to attack are two completely different things.

 In the first place, you can only detect magic power, but you are not yet able to activate it.

 Milo didn't seem too interested in being an adventurer, but Amber was quite happy, so I was a little worried.

 In the first place, water magic is not very good for attacking.

 If you can use water magic, you can get water anywhere, and you can make ice, so it's useful for adventurer work.

But it's still worth it because it opens up a lot of possibilities.

That's good. Well, I'll give Milo and Amber a quick lesson when we get here. Mr. Isiaka, you don't have an apprenticeship in mind, do you?

Yes, unfortunately. --No wizard would accept an orphan.

 Ishka-san sighs with a sad expression.


 Although I don't have many opportunities to feel it in this town, I guess there is discrimination against orphans.
 It's a shame, though.

 After that, Haruka and I taught magic to Milo, Amber, and Remy until it was time to go home, but it was the first time for us to teach magic.

 In the end, the day ended without any of us being able to use magic.
