Early in the morning when I saw Flynn off.
　The sun was shining brightly, letting the sunshine shine in from a low angle as if it were leaning on his heavy head. On the other hand, the cold wind seemed to scratch at his skin before his body could warm up.

　In the morning that foreshadowed such a cold wave, Ars saw a huge chalk tower that was about to break through the heavens in the distance. I'm sure the tower will continue to stand tall even if it crosses the four seasons and is exposed to the fury of the outside world's climate. Even after its role is over, the white color that has no relation to ageing seems to appeal to its integrity from the beginning.

　When he turned around, Ars cut his gaze and started to walk as if to resist the cold wind.

　Next to her is Loki, who desperately bites off a lack of movement, and she hurriedly covers her mouth with her hand.
　It must have been very late last night. In fact, Loki and Flynn had barely slept at all, although Ars, who had been sleeping soundly, hadn't noticed.

　It was really quick and quite normal for the conversation to gradually turn from a stiff exchange of information about the military and the Society to open-chested banter at first, and it was very common - and long enough to become engrossing.

'Why don't you get some sleep too?'

　Rubbing her eyes, Loki said firmly and firmly, "This is no problem," she said once and for all.
　However, the corners of her eyes drooped slightly, and the eyes that tried to open up carried an irresistible sleepiness on their lids. Loki, like Ars, has been trained to operate with insomnia for a few days or so.

　Although drowsy, Loki's expression, as if a possession had been removed, does not show the slightest hint of melancholy fading to force it. It's not Ars, not Tesfia or Alice. The reason he was able to speak without a care in the world this time was probably because the other party was Flynn.

　Even if it wasn't a match, Flynn shared a secret that only some of them could know. In that sense, he has no qualms about it. We could share complaints, hardships, fun things, funny things, and happy things.
　However, Loki trusts Flynn completely when he saves Ars's life.

　There may be some problems that only a woman can have, and whether or not he will confide in her just because she is close to Ars is another matter.
　He must be tired of talking a lot. The shoulders of Loki, who is walking unsteadily right next to Ars, touch each other in time with his pace.

''Go to bed after all I'm not planning to leave the lab today either.
I'm sure you're fine, but....

　The mouth that spins the words nearly turns to a lack of speech for a moment, and then he tells her, forcing her to bite down and keep the conversation uninterrupted.

'I'll wait until after I've finished preparing breakfast.
I can help you with that.
'Oh, Al?　I mean, that sounds really, really fun, doesn't it?

　Loki's eyes naturally close in on the distant lines of consciousness.
　Loki's legs also stopped completely, and he left his body to Ars like a doll falling over with a coton.

　Thinking back on it, she had been with Ars and hadn't had a moment to rest since she was wanted. After witnessing the death of her beloved she almost gave up everything, and yet Loki's spirit has not been able to catch up with the fact that she was able to return to her daily life like this.
　Besides, the exhaustion she felt from her military upbringing might be similar to when Ars came to the academy and went through the encounter with Tesfia and Alice. She wasn't busy loosening or strengthening her nervous strings with unfamiliarity.

　Lifting his cheeks, Als tapped Loki twice lightly on the shoulder and squatted down in front of her.

'I can at least manage my own food, and I'll be fine in the morning or so.
Yes.

　Loki, who was in a snoozing state, wouldn't even remember if he had replied, and fell into a hug on Ars's back.

　Lifting him up, Ars remembers the old days and walks out to the lab with a light step.



　When he returned to the lab, Ars had no choice but to put her to bed in his own bed instead of going into Loki's room, which is the privacy of his room, even though he lives with her.
　The blunder that he didn't realize until he was sound asleep was at the same time applicable to Loki. Although in her case, it might have been due to the banter that had taken place throughout the night with Flynn.

　Then Ars scrounged up the elemental material in the lab. There was still no progress in understanding the special strains called elements, and only the minimum amount of material needed.
　Nothing in the lab is about isolating the factors or figuring out why they occur, like the outrageous research that Gudma had done in the past.

　He identifies several element-related magic formulas from the pile of materials on his desk and then accesses the magic compendium, Grimoire, from the virtual LCD. Read the license issued by the association and exercise your access privileges by referring to the Arth rankings.
　The magic disclosed by the revision that classifies the form of magic is locked. Only the highest level of magic is disclosed to the wizard, and the highest to the most extreme levels require the wizard's rank and personal authentication.

　Ars's license cleared all of them, and a vast array of magic names filled the screen.
　I examined the magic names itemized into lineages, and when I opened one to try it out, a list of [Lost Characters (Lost Spells)] was displayed like a cipher.

　If you don't concentrate and focus, it's enough to make you lose track of where you were looking at in a moment's notice.

　As if in thought, Ars covers his mouth with a lightly clenched hand and quickly closes the screen, then opens another magic formula.
　Instantly, as if he was memorizing the whole thing, Ars understood the magic formula. Just like when he created Alice's magic, magical formulas have certain laws.

　However, perhaps because the elements are inborn, the formation of the magical formula is slightly different from that of other lineages.

　--or is there still no established systematic formula?

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for. There is also a single magic formula that maximizes the magic of a single person. These likewise require a minimum number of lineage-related formulas - combinations of characters - that are similarly required.
　In both cases, there is an underlying formula defined by the lineage. Quite simply, it is a formula for the relationship between magic and magical power.

　I look down at the rugged, bare dagger left on the desk and grab one of the two daggers.
　He fiddles around with it with one hand.
　It was easy to use, and it seemed to be made of good quality celesment, from the blade to the hilt. It's no wonder they have it in Budna's workshop.

　It's such a work of art. However, that is if it is as a dagger.
　Yes, if you look at it as an AWR rather than a dagger, it must be said to be less than blunt. The distortion of the engraved formula is a mark of failure and undermines its function as an AWR.

　No matter how good the material is, a mistake in a magical formula is fatal. It's not even for sale. Normally this is a category that can be reused, but I felt that it would certainly be hesitant to re-fuse something that had been completed to this point as a dagger.

　It's not exactly a craftsman as expected of Ars, but it's a thorough examination of the dagger. He measured the distortion and warping of the sword blade in detail.

　If he saw Ars now, Budna would turn a grin on his face, not worth his age. That's how enthralled he was with Ars, that's for sure.
　As it is now, it's just a deadly weapon that a mage doesn't need. However, if you are a mage, you will always need AWR.

　Although he can't make an AWR from scratch like the craftsmanlike Budna, Ars can take charge of the essential part of the AWR's production, the magical formula that is the life of the AWR........

　He unfolds the drawings and carefully draws them one by one, never missing an experiment to see if they serve as a framework for constructing magic.
　After finishing the preparations, Ars suddenly looks at his bedroom. If Loki is awake, will he be told that he is meddling again?

　Now that he knows, now that he's involved...such an excusable reason is probably because of Tesfia and Alice after all.
　And I wanted to see it. Because when they were relative, Fiona's magic power reflected her hesitation, and at the same time, it was something that didn't change anything.
　Nothing would change. No matter who you compare her to, there is a straightforward ideal that is typical of a chick, there is a sweetness and a weakness there.

　So in reality, he wasn't a softie as Loki would say, and Ars himself thought he was just intrigued. I'm not talking about a researcher or a calculator, I'm just interested in being a mage.
　If magic is the greatest material that defines an individual, then maybe Fiona can provide a guide that can break through the stereotypes of the modern world. Maybe she can show us the signs of change.

　I can't be bothered with all that, and Ars continued to access the association through the license connected to the virtual LCD.

''Let's decide on this one too.

　The virtual LCD screen that was projected on the screen was lined with requests divided by difficulty level. I narrowed it down to the outside world from among them and looked at it.
　Even though I'm thinking of taking Tesfia and Alice to train in the outside world. I thought I would kill two birds with one stone and accept the request anyway. After all, for the first time in his life, his nostalgia is getting lonely.

　Currently, it is not possible to receive requests to go out to the outside world with a unit that includes the students of the academy. For that reason, he and Loki thought of a loophole in which they would receive the request and have them accompany him.
　There would be no problem in that area if the Chancellor's permission and Ilyce's permission were granted. In either case, since the safety of the active 1st rank is no more guaranteed than if they were to accompany you, I even think it's better to just say a few words rather than permission.


　The requests themselves range from individuals to the military to the state, and the number of requests is enormous. I'm going to be able to see the contents of the requests flowing at a tremendous rate. And then he sets his sights on one and completes the procedure.
　It's not possible to receive an order on the spot, and originally it would take about an hour to accept it as an application period, but it seems that they are referring to the order of Ars and Loki, and it was accepted after a few seconds as if there was no waiting time for these two people.

　The content of the request made Ars wrinkle his brow a little, but for a request from the military, the compensation is unbeatable. And it is also certain that Ars's fingers were moving when the content was vague.
