Let's conclude.
　My reincarnation magic worked.

　And it's exactly 1,000 years later.

Yes...

　I was inwardly gutted when I realized that. I'm still a baby though.

'Oh...!　So I'm a father finally.
'Look, Dad!　Kurt, you look like an angel!

　My parents took me in their arms and rubbed my cheek against mine.

　Well I came into this world as the eldest son of House Leprechaun.
　My father's name was Alois. My mother's name was Emelia.

　And I was named Kurt I was named Kurt Leprechaun.

　My family was not particularly rich or poor. We were a middle-class family.
　I was twelve years old after receiving a lot of love and affection from Alois and Emilia, who were a bit of an idiot, and I hadn't had any problems in my life.

　I hadn't had any problems so far in my life.
　But it seems that the problem was the world.


"What happened to this world...?


　I put down the book I was reading and I'm aghast.

　Twelve years so far.

　Could it be?
　Is something wrong?
　I've been living in doubt, but apparently there's no doubt about it.


　This world has declined since I lived in it a thousand years ago.


　Especially when it comes to magical technology.
　A thousand years ago. I brought about a revolution in magic and all of humanity was to benefit from it.
　But a thousand years later in this world, magic seems to be regarded as something that can only be used by a few talented people.

　This is surprising.
　Before the magical revolution, magic was commonplace, even for ordinary children.
　In other words, magic has become an integral part of our daily lives.

　But a thousand years from now, almost no one will use magic.
　On the contrary, we don't see the same kind of magic tools that were so well developed in the past.

It's a good thing that you're not the only one who can do this.

　What magical technology will have been developed in 1,000 years time?
　What kind of useful magic tools will be used in the city?
　That's what I was so excited about, and now I'm disappointed.

　........But it's still too early to make an assumption.
　After all, the village I was born in seems to be pretty much in the middle of nowhere.
　Maybe it's only in this small village.

　We've been left behind by a magical civilization and that's that.
　The current state of affairs makes it seem unlikely.

"Well, Dad, Mom. I'm going to go visit you today.
Hey, look out for yourself.

　Dad replies as he reads the paper.

'Kurt. I keep telling you, you can't just go to the nearby woods, okay?　That's where the demons live, you know.
Yeah. I know.

　I wave to my worried mother and then leave the house.
　The place I'm heading to - the nearby forest where the demons live, of course.



　It was just a short walk away from the village.

　My father and mother-or rather, the people of the village have told me not to go to the nearby forest.
　But the only fun you can have in the countryside, where there's nothing to do, is what's called 'hunting demons'.
　It's a good idea to have a good time with the demons, because the body will get corrupted if you don't release your magic against them.

However, there is no demon to entertain me.

　As I was walking through the forest, mumbling to myself, a wolf-shaped demon named Wolf appeared ahead of me.
　Today I was able to find it right away. Lucky.

''Ushi ... let's do it.''

　When the Wolf saw me, he attacked me with his fangs pointed at me.
　I guess there are only 2 seconds left before it reaches us........
　In my previous life, it was normal to fight within 0.001 seconds, so it's too late and I'm missing out.

　I decided to slowly form a magical formula (Mahoushiki).
　By pouring magic power into the completed magic formula, the magic is activated.
　While the Wolf is still far ahead, a spear-shaped flame appears in front of me.
　It is a low-grade magic known as Fire Spear.

　This is probably enough for this guy.
　The spear of flames went straight ahead and stabbed straight into Wolf.

''Kyaungh!

　With a surprisingly cute squeal, the spear-pierced Wolf rolled to the ground.

''Otherwise-well, in my previous life, most of the demons ran away as soon as they saw me, so guys like this are precious.

　I was about to approach the fallen wolves when I saw them.
　I was surrounded by a dozen Wolves that showed up around me.

''Your mate was hit and you came to check on him........?

　Of course, it was on purpose to allow them to get so close.
　It was because I had long ago figured out that more than a dozen wolves were approaching using detection magic.

''Okay, come over there. It's good exercise.
Uh-oh!

　The Wolves attacked in unison, howling in unison.
　And the dozen or so Wolves rolled over, not even five seconds had passed since the battle began.

''Feng. You've regained a lot of strength.''

　I spread my fist out with a goop to see how well my magic power is adjusting to it.

　I'm still far from my prime in my previous life.
　But I know I'm steadily getting closer.

"Well, let's keep hunting a little longer.



　After that, we continued to hunt demons for about an hour or so, and then went back home.

I'm home.
Welcome back. Kurt!　I've been worried about you!

　As soon as I get home, my mom hugs me.
　I've only been out of the house for a little while....

'You're being too attentive, Mom.
'But, but!　Kurt-chan.....

　Mom gazes at me with tears in her eyes.

That's right, Kurt," she said, "if you meet a wolf in the woods, you're in big trouble. If you run into a wolf in the woods, you'll be in big trouble. Even the vigilantes risk their lives to take down one of them.

　I've killed over 30 wolves since then.

Don't worry, Dad. If that monster shows up I'll spell him out for you.
Hahaha, that's encouraging. Well, I'm sure you have a talent for something but the magic thing is quite a funny joke.

　I'm not kidding. It's after I defeated the demons earlier.

　By the way, I don't tell my parents that I can use magic.
　It's not a good idea to have a good time with them.

It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do. Don't show your s*xuality only to magic.
That's right, Kurt. Mom I don't know much about it but you see, defective magic is not the best for magic, right?　So don't do anything dangerous, Kurt-chan!

　Yes, this common sense of 'defective magic power' was the most surprising.

　There are different types of magic power and they are colored.
　That was the same as it was a thousand years ago.

　But........defective magic power?
　What do you mean?

　The only thing I've found in this world is a magical color best suited for magic - golden.
