130-Episode 119: Sage, Make a Little Serious




 Instantaneous memory user (instalers).

 They are called gifted, but they are not so special.
 There is only one of them in the tens of thousands of people.
 But their abilities are undoubtedly extraordinary.

 He has a super memory that allows him to recreate a scene he saw in a split second without a single mistake.
 He is also skilled in spatial awareness, and once he has it memorized, he can recall a scene in any direction.

 For 【Mages (Wizards)】 that require the power of imagery, the Instantaneous Memory Holder (Installer) will be a powerful ally.

 In particular, its compatibility with 【Transfer】 is the best.

 With just the power of imagery alone, he can get close to the opponent's bosom without any sign or vision.
 To the enemy side, it's just a nightmare.

 It is being used by a girl who has just turned 12 years old.
 As expected, I couldn't help but be surprised.

 Perhaps, but it's not something that Relivia alone thought of.
 I can sense a deep thought behind her.
 Undoubtedly, Iolada sent her to do this.
 He seemed to be a refreshingly nice young man, but he was apparently the type to hold on to his roots in a surprising way.

 You are just like your brother and sister.

I'm sure you're not the only one who's interested," he said. I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world. And you're right - I'm an instalurator, so it wasn't difficult. It wasn't hard to do.

 I activate [Transfer] again.
 Like smoke, Relivia disappears.
 A moment later, she appears at my side.
 I swing my sword to play the cutting edge aimed at her throat.

 [Transfer]

 Disappearing.
 My sword slashed the sky.

"Tch!

 That's a trickier ability than I thought.

 This time it appeared above my head.
 I met eyes with Relivia, who smirked.
 The cutting edge extends like a lightning strike.
 I stepped and dodged it.

 But before that, Relivia seemed to have read it.

 Before descending to the ground, I activate 【Transfer】.
 She turned behind me.
 I immediately react and take up an interception position.

 Hmm.........
 Coming with a series of physical attacks, it's about time.
 It's about time for them to change their patterns.
 You're coming, right?

 He grinned at me.

 And, as expected, it comes.

 What Relivia was holding was not a sword.
 It was magic.
 The flames of the red lotus started to come on and she activated her magic.

 【Great Flame Ball】

 An intermediate level single-attribute flame spell.

 You can dodge it if you want to.
 You can catch it if you want to, but....

 But that's okay.
 I'm going to let you hold the flower.
 It's also a threat to the other candidates.

 Zutto!

 The sound of explosions roared through the practical test room.
 Red lotus flames enveloped me.
 Relivia's loud laughter echoed as I watched the rising flames.

''Hahahahaha! We did it! I've avenged my brother!

So don't kill your brother if you have to.

What?

 Lelivia turned around.
 In the same azure eyes as her brother, she reflects me appearing from the flames.

 I activate the magic of 【Blacksmith(Blacksmith)】.

 [Restoration]

 In places, the charred uniform returns to normal as if it were freshly tailored.

''Hey--. How can you stand with an unconcerned look on your face after a direct hit of magic!

 Keen, Relivia shouted in a voice that echoed through the playground.

 I could only cower my shoulders.

'I'm sorry. I didn't mean to deceive you. It's just that since I fought your brother, I've been working out a little too hard myself.


 I'm not going to be able to lose even a scratch with intermediate level magic, my body can't even lose a scratch.


 The people around me are buzzing.

What?
He said his intermediate magic didn't work.
Even a B-ranked hexenbiest is effective.
What kind of body is stronger than...


"'No way!'


 The candidates exclaimed.

'That was close, Relivia. You could have defeated me with advanced magic.'

 Well, that is, if he could use that advanced magic.

 The attack just now must have been perfectly aimed at.
 It must have been a carefully prepared tactic even before he declared war on me.
 I brought intermediate magic to that finish.
 Iolada would have chosen the advanced magic.
 But the fact that he used intermediate magic means that he probably hasn't acquired advanced magic, or he doesn't have enough control over it to be able to use it in a real battle yet.

 But to be able to do so much at that age is to be admired.

 If you're at least as good as the top of our second class students, you might be able to compete with them.

'Relivia........'

What the hell...

Rejoice. You've passed.

What are you talking about?

To be honest, I didn't plan on using magic in this test.

Hey, wait a minute! You haven't used your magic yet? You've been handling my sword without magic?

'Yeah. Yes, but....

Huh?

 Lelivia exclaimed.
 Her face, which had been flushed from start to finish, went pale.

 I continue to talk.

'Even if it's a pass, you wouldn't be happy either, would you, without a proper black and white statement?

Oh, of course! This time I'm going to let you--

I've decided that the only way to deal with you is to use magic. I'm not going to be able to get my hands on any of them, but I'm not going to be able to capture you and attack you with my bare hands.

 That's how troublesome a short-range attack by [Transfer] is.
 They are not reflected in my vision. Magic power is also hard to detect.
 If you analyze it in detail, it might be possible to catch the moment of its occurrence, but that's difficult to do in the middle of an actual battle.

 If that's the case, it's better to use magic to decide the game.

 I knead my magic power.

 I could see the surroundings gasp.
 Finally, Lacelle Girrell Stark uses her magic.
 The studious candidates opened their eyes and looked at me, not wanting to miss the moment.

''What kind of magic is he using?''
It's got to be advanced magic.
No, it's probably top shelf.
Fool. Speaking of Mr. Lacelle, isn't he a multiple boot?
How many times do you have to activate it?

 Expectation lingered on my back.
 While hearing such noises, I activated my magic.

 [Strengthening muscle mass]

What?
Huh?
It's called "muscle toning.
That's elementary magic that even I could do.
The multiple activations...

 While I was surprised, there were also many voices of disappointment.

 [Warrior (Warrior)] magic.
 It's also a beginner's equipment.

"What's that? You're trying to catch me with that kind of magic? I wonder if he's licking his lips.

 Lelivia snickered.

 I raised the corners of my mouth as well.

'You'll have to see for yourself if you're licking it or not.

'Ha! Then come on.

 Lelivia challenged.

 I sighed.....

'Okay,'


 Thump!


 Kicking the ground.
 In an instant, I was past Relivia.

'Huh?'

 Even though the enemy was over her shoulder, Relivia hadn't evaded or activated her magic.
 The reason is obvious.

 He simply couldn't see me.

'No, no, no. Not good. I've gone too far.

 I scratched my head lightly.
 That's when Relivia came back to me.
 She hurriedly tries to activate 【Transfer】.
 But my sword was faster.

''Tell your favorite brother.


 You're a bit of a tightwad, you know........


 I hit Relivia's side with the belly of my sword.
 When I caught it perfectly, I blew it away in the direction of the day after tomorrow.
 With a great sound, it stabs into the wall.
 The magical silver wall received such an impact that it was caved in, and Relivia fell down.

 Sheesh......... I've overdone it.

 It's been a long time since I've used 【Strengthening Muscle Mass】, so I couldn't control it well.
 It's like I'm back to the old days.

''Goho! Geho!

 Lelivia coughs.
 Apparently, she is conscious.
 Oh, that's pretty solid.
 I'm not sure if I've ever seen it before.

"Lelivia, you're going to be strong.

Shut up..... I'm gonna put you....

 That's when Relivia finally lost consciousness.
