　We went to the castle and Nair and Leona, whom we met again there, showed us around Lingle Kingdom until the afternoon training.

　Since the battle had just ended, the town was not very popular and had not yet returned to its original atmosphere, but the stores were still open, so we showed them around and went to the store where Amako was helping out.

　In the afternoon, when the training with Kazuki was about to start, Leona and I were having a light hand-to-hand training session as a warm-up.

"There!

"Sweet!"

　My outstretched fist was bounced off the handle of the spear that Leona-san was spinning in her hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona re-gripped the spear and launched a stone thrust at my leg.

"What!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I avoided it by stepping back, but Leona-san stepped forward and swung her spear in a broad sideways cleave.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Cleave with reach!　Is it wrong to keep your distance!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You flick the tip of the spear with your right hand, and as you keep your distance from Leona, you bring her into your sight once again.

"I thought I could do it at close range, but I guess there are ways to fight without letting them get close. ......"

　He is a man who is more than Kazuki and his senpai in terms of technology.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you try to forcefully approach him, he will counterattack you as he did before.

"I said I was going to have a mock battle casually, but I'm getting more and more passionate about it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Haha ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No, at the beginning, it was supposed to be a casual affair, but as we continued to ...... attack and defend each other several times, it turned out to be quite serious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, Leona's spear is ice-coated, and we both abide by the rule that we don't take each other seriously.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Now that Nair is gone, too. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nair remained alone with Amaco when he left for the afternoon training.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You're not coming?　When I asked her if she was coming, she said, "I don't want you to follow me all the way, and I want you to enjoy yourself with your friends once in a while.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So now I am fighting without her support.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Leona. I think it's time to start using some magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't mind, but are you sure you can handle it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I'm fine. And I'd like to review the use of this cage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I usually use a basket hand only as a shield.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since I assimilated with Ferrum, I no longer have the advantage of unleashing my magical power unharmed, but this basket hand has another characteristic of assisting in the manipulation of magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have not been able to make use of it so far, but I need to understand it better in order to master the technique of making magic power elastic.

"In that case, I must cooperate with you as a person who has been entrusted with Master Farga's armament, just as you have.

"What?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona-san swung the spear in her right hand once.　With a metallic sound, the spear changed its shape to a sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I let out a cry of surprise at the transformation, which was too cool to say the least.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　It can also be a sword?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's a staff in its original form. Compared to your armor and the armor of the heroes of the Lingle Kingdom, it has a more flexible shape.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was indeed an axe when Mr. Karon was using it, so it's not surprising that it can change into other forms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seeing my surprise, Leona-san's smile grew stronger and she took a stance, releasing cold air from her sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Behind her, four ice swords are floating.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Now, you already know how I fight with swords, don't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......, great!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He creates healing magic bullets with both hands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Neither of us is serious, but it's still a tense match.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After taking a small deep breath, I run toward Leona.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Healing magic bullet!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Healing magic bullet!" "Intercept!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I run, the two healing magic bullets I throw and the ice sword that Leona-san shoots collide in mid-air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was so surprised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The same battle as the mock battle we had in Mearaq.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The difference was that Leona was not hesitating in the fight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although I myself am aware that I have grown since then, Leona was skillful in using her technique and magic, and did not allow me to get close to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her strength as a brave warrior without hesitation made me happy as if it were my own, but at the same time I felt frustrated that I was not able to fully handle the armor of a brave warrior like her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a few minutes had passed, I had used my healing acceleration fist to distance myself from Leona, while avoiding her ice sword, and she shouted in surprise.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You've started to use strange techniques again while I haven't seen you for a while!　You are!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's called Healing Acceleration Fist!　This is also a technique that applies the outburst of magic power!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry!　I'm sorry! I'll ask you later.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was treated as if it was a long-winded and unintelligible technique.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I tried to close the distance again, but I was stopped by the tracking ice sword that Leona had thrown at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Its anomalous acceleration is troublesome..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona raised her sword high in the air, and her blade was covered with magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have a bad feeling when I see the translucent blade that begins to emit white cold air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"This kind of technique will be effective for you who are fast, won't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The moment she swings the sword down, a powerful cold-air filled magic is released from the blade.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It spread out to the side and came toward me, freezing the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　A healing magic bursting palm!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was shocked, but I released a shockwave of magic power from my palm to block the oncoming cold air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, the cold air was stopped only for a moment, and was immediately pushed back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He falls back and stares at the wall of cold air, which still has not stopped its momentum.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No good. ......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A torrent of cold air rushing forward, freezing the ground!　If this hits you hard, your movement will be restricted!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A bursting palm of healing magic is not enough to stop the cold air!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　---If only!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If the Bursting Palm doesn't work, then strengthen it even more!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He holds his right arm at his waist and creates a magic bullet in his palm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic bullet, which would normally grow so large that it contains magic power, is kept at the same size and continues to contain magic power by applying Kagote's ability to manipulate magic power and strengthen his lineage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"?　Usato, what are you trying to do?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He puts his left hand on the basket hand to hold down the magic that is about to overflow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic bullet is distorted in shape while overflowing with green light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic bullet, which has been caged to the very limit, is released by thrusting the palm forward.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At the same time as the sound of air bursting, the healing magic bullet compressed by the palm bursts out, and a shockwave beyond the healing burst palm is released in a fan shape.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With it, a recoil incomparable to that of the healing burst palm struck.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Nooo......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The impact nearly knocked him down, but he braced his legs and held on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The green shockwave emitted from the outburst of the magic bullet pushes back the oncoming cold air and pulls away the ice covering the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The green particles of healing magic and the shattered ice that scattered into the air glinted in the sun, creating a fantastic scene.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Whew... ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He exhales lightly as he lowers his palm, still poised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For a spur-of-the-moment move, you succeeded .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If the healing punch is enhanced with the healing flying fist, is this technique enhanced with the healing magic bullet?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I look at the green light that is glowing and drifting in the air where I am standing and tilt my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Did the magic power of the healing magic fly away along with the shockwave? ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since it feels as if healing magic is being applied just by being here, it must be as if the cold air is not only canceled out but also the caged healing magic is dispersed into the air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... If we use this technique well, we can heal a lot of people without touching them directly, can't we?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The effect will be reduced drastically, but I think it is quite useful to heal wounds just by being there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"A wide-area healing magic. If I had to name one, it would be either Healing Flash or Healing Explosive Wave ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I mutter this to myself, my eyes dazzled by the scenery in front of me, I notice Leona rushing toward me at a short run.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......A"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona, who can use lineage enhancement, must know the principle behind my earlier technique.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, she might get mad at me again. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can bear Rose's anger, but I can't bear Leona's anger, so I talk to Leona who approaches me in a slurred voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, uh, uh, Leona-san, this is ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Usato. Would you please remove the cage from your right arm?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, yes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I released the cage as I was told, and Leona grabbed my wrist and looked at my entire right arm as if she was observing me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a dozen or so seconds of her doing as she was told, she patted her chest as if she was relieved.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Good. It looks like you are not hurt."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's such a good technique. You could have been seriously injured. I just wanted to make sure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, you're not mad?　Well, I'm not mad about the technique you just used. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not angry. I'm not angry. ...... I'm just trying to stop complaining about the way you do things. In general, the techniques you use are too dangerous, but their application and ideas are unique to you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona laughs as she removes her hand from her right arm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Then, what I should do is not to condemn you, but to help you and encourage your growth as a user of the same lineage enhancement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Leona, ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I was surprised at your technique earlier, but ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I was feeling a rush of excitement when she said this to me with a shy look on her face, I noticed two signs approaching the training area where we were.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that Senpai and Kazuki have arrived.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, Usato-kun---why are there diamond dusts dancing in the cold weather?　And it's glowing green!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, it's so beautiful!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First of all, I have to explain the current situation to you two.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At first, I met up with Senpai and Kazuki and briefly explained to them that we had been having a mock battle and that we had created the current scene as part of that battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Senpai said, "I should have come earlier. ......!" He seemed to be extremely frustrated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After that, we were going to train to make the magic power elastic as we had planned before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"How are you doing, Kazuki?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He showed Kazuki the magic bullets created in his palm covered by his cage hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We haven't even found a clue yet, but maybe Kazuki will be able to tell us something if he sees it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Maybe Usato is creating this magic power in the way of lineage reinforcement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What, that's not good enough?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What should I say ......?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kazuki puts his hand on his chin, twists his head, and speaks brokenly with a magic bullet floating in his palm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If you compare this magic bullet to a bowl of water, and the magic power that is poured into it to water, then the system is strengthened by pouring water into the bowl so that it does not break when the capacity of the bowl is exceeded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So, making magic power elastic is ...... a puzzle, if you will. You have to make sure that there are no gaps in the magic, and then you have to weave it into layers and pile them on top of each other. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With that, Kazuki's voice gradually became quieter and he began to visibly dejected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry, I'm not good at explaining."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, no, I kind of get it, it's okay!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kazuki's shoulders slumped, and I followed him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To be honest, I could visualize some parts of it, but I couldn't understand the important parts.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was ashamed of my clumsy comprehension, but Leona and my senpai, who were listening next to me, were nodding their heads in agreement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It gives elasticity to magic power...... or, since it's long, let's call it elasticity granting. The elasticity imparting and the lineage strengthening are different from the first step to get there, aren't they?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is that right ......?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, it seems that Mr. Kazuki is a sensory person."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Like Kazuki, I nod my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then Leona turned her head toward me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Usato. Kazuki-dono's magic power comes out differently from ordinary magic. It is easier to understand if I say that it is not just released from his body, but that he has created the contents of his body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's not the same as just releasing magic?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. Kazuki-dono, Suzune-dono, can you make a magic bullet for us to try?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh, yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Got it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At Leona's request, Kazuki creates a magic bullet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you look closely, you can see that a sphere is being formed as the magic power wraps around the center of the bullet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the other hand, my senpai's magic bullet is familiar to me, a mass of magic power overflowing from his palm and solidifying as if it were being fleshed out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Do you see the difference?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"When you release magic power normally, its contents are empty. But magic power with contents is in fact magic power that has been created.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So we were starting from the wrong place to begin with.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I used to leave the release of magic power to my senses, but from now on I have to be aware of that too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"By the way, Mr. Kazuki, I heard that you have mastered the system reinforcement. ...... I think you must have had a lot of trouble learning the system reinforcement, didn't you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, I did. I finally succeeded in it with the help of Master Farga's cage hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　How did you know?　Kazuki was surprised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leona nodded her head in understanding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I thought it was strange that someone as skilled as you in handling magic power had not succeeded in strengthening the system, ...... but with such precise magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So, that's why you've been failing all the time. ...... I didn't know. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, it's too precise to be able to strengthen the system.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's great that you can recognize that immediately, but most of all, it's great that you teach in a way that is so easy to understand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I think it's quite impressive that I can still keep up with what you're saying.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Usato, did you get something?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not sure, but I'm getting the idea.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I stand up, replying to the senior who has just spoken to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I understand the principle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The question is whether or not I will be able to perform the superior manipulation of magic that Kazuki must be performing unconsciously, but I will have to make do with Kagome's power and patience.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"First, I will try. Then..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Your dedication is just like Usato-kun. Yes, that's you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What am I, you say?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For some reason, he mutters happily to himself as he raises his right arm, which is covered by a basket hand, while his legs are about to lose their strength.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't think there's any danger, but I'm sure Leona will stop me if something happens.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I close my eyes and concentrate on manipulating the magic.
