A white coat flapping in the wind.

　The expression on the man's face, screwing his thick hands into the pockets of his jeans, waiting for the man to appear, was obscured by his large, wide-brimmed hat.


　It was "cool" as best he could.

　He didn't have the courage or time to go shopping for clothes. He wore the coolest-looking white coat and hat he could find in his house to give it a "cool" look.

　It is the result of his own painstaking efforts to dress in the (・・・・)-appropriate (......)dress for witchcraft.


　Kevin's suggestion that there might have been a change of heart and a reason for the change of heart was correct.

　There was no way it couldn't be.

　In just six months, he had mastered all of the magic and witchcraft, and he was no longer a match for anyone who called themselves a 'magician'.

　No, he was no longer a match for them.

　He didn't learn the magic arts in order to reach the pinnacle of sorcery. He simply found it interesting and fun.


　That's why he was confused.

　He ran through it in a frenzy, and when he suddenly stopped, there was no one around.

　He was made to understand.

　He'd been lonely all this time, or so he thought. The real loneliness, he thought, was just beginning.

　He thought he had been studying loneliness. I had vaguely thought that if I just kept on mastering my magic, one day someone would catch up with me and give me a fair assessment, and I would be rewarded.


.............

　This is a sign of separation.

　As a magician, not a sorcerer, he is ready to live in the solitude of the real and true.

　And respect for the only man who is waiting for him.

　He is more lonely than anyone else, but he is determined not to let him be alone.

　It's a very stealthy way of saying these things.


"Let's do it.

Dufot.


　He laughed wryly at the man with a spare look on his face as he walked out, stretching.

　There was too much to talk about.

　I wanted to tell you how much fun I've had these past six months.
　I wanted to talk about my many discoveries.
　I wanted to exchange ideas.
　I wanted to share this feeling of why witchcraft is so interesting, even if it's a trivial one.

　In an instant, I was flooded with so many thoughts, I couldn't bear it, and I blurted out.


　--Yes. It's all because of you, and all of this, and all of this, and all of this.

　I wish you could be so happy that you would blow it out of your mind too--!


M. Muratti Tricolori.


　We have to get it right.

　Muratti Tricolori is the only magician in the world who can scare you: ......!


Eishou, please return it to me.



　Bite me: ......!



　　* * *



　White coat and sorcerer's cap. Mirati, I'm in high spirits.

　I'm pleased to see you. It was worth the work.

　You've got a nice smile on your face.

　You may be the only person in the world who gets to have this much fun with witchcraft.


"Second first test, here we come.


　Remember.

　The best name in the world will always be here.


　...... Come to see me when you get lonely.



"Wise general--if you can catch it, go ahead and catch it.

...... ......!


"Bow to each other!　Ready!


　From now on, the battle for the Eishou will not be based on [magic] but on [magic and magic] as the standard.

　This is a wave of the times that cannot be resisted.

　Everyone will have to desperately catch up with it.

　Only those who can catch up with it will be able to ride the next wave. Those who can't catch up will be swallowed by the wave and drowned.

　That's what PvP is all about.


　But you know what?

Everyone has their own way of having fun.

　It's obvious, but we all tend to forget.


　We don't have to quit.

　We just need to remind ourselves of them. We need to remind ourselves of the feelings we had as children, when we were thrilled to see the stones lying around our feet.

　That's why you're number one in the world.


Begin!

　Now, let me play with you once more.

　After more than ten years, let me fully enjoy this historical moment when [magic magic] appears again in the War of the Wise and Powerful.


　The first move ---- "Wind Attribute, Ichino Type", I release this to my own feet (・・・・・).


''

　It's a little early to be surprised, Muratti.

　The next series of tactics, the "bouncy bouncy wind".

　It's a strategy I've been fiddling with for over ten years.

　But this is the only time it will be fascinating.


......

　While you are surprised, Muratti quickly regains his composure and begins chanting the Synergy of the Ichino Type of Fire, the Ichino Type of Earth, and the Ichino Type of Wind.

　Since it is possible to unleash the Ichino Type for three attributes in the chanting time of a normal Ichino Type plus alpha, it's a foul grade for the magicians of this world.

"Good, not bad.

　Muratti has completed his chanting and is trying to shoot "Wind Attribute, Ichino Type" at my feet, aiming to shoot at my landing as I jumped up from the wind pressure. It's a so-called "landing hunt".

　That's the judgment of someone who understands the characteristics of magic. You can't chant or activate it while moving. Hence, it seems that he saw that there is no way that the landing hunt would not succeed.

　However, with this method of chanting while moving in the air, it is possible to activate it while moving. The point is the difference between entering a move (...) or not. Muratti, didn't you notice that much?


Potions?

　I don't understand the reaction. Did you mean to say "seriously?　That's an epic bite. Well, I don't know how I feel about it.


　The one I was chanting while moving through the air was the "Wind Attribute, Sanno Type". And just before landing, I shoot it further into my feet (...).

　Although it takes some damage, it can move through the air much faster and higher than the ...... Ichinokata's time.

　Muratti's 《Synergy》, which was unleashed with the aim of hunting for a landing, didn't seem to anticipate me jumping up in a pyo-pyo again, and it missed spectacularly.


　Because it flies up pyo-pyo with wind attribute magic, so pyo-pyo wind. It's a simple name, but you'll know it when you're hit, and it's a battle method that's quite hard to underestimate.

　You can chant while moving in the air, the chanting formation is hard to see, you can cast it while moving, and the attack is hard to hit since it's always on the move. It's a battle strategy of five birds with one stone.


　...... I'll never forget the first Eishou War.

　I was the fastest person on the server to qualify for the Eito General's battle and was the holder of the Zero Eito General, and I was waiting for the man to challenge me that day.

　And the one who appeared was the origin of the Okan style - that is to say, the origin of magic.

　I was defeated by him. To the dramatic idea of 【Magic Arts】. I let the glorious first great general of wisdom escape from my hand.

　I still dream about it. An experience that will surely make the top ten on the "Things I Regret" list.

　That's right. If only I could have surpassed that idea on that day and at that time.

If only I'd thought of flying not only with the Ichino, but also with the San no Kata.

　I wouldn't have been defeated.

　I would have beaten the American genius.

　Someone somewhere must have wanted to see this. You're not going to be able to get your hands on any of this stuff.

　Somewhere, they should have wanted to scream that the seven are the strongest.

　What if I don't live up to your expectations.

　Hey, ...... Muratti.


"Gooey!

　As if to ask a question, he delivered a shot from the air to Muratti with 《Lightning Attribute, Ichino Type》.

　After jumping up with the 《Wind Attribute, Ichino Type》, he could generally move between the two Ichino Types. In other words, after this, he would jump up again with the Wind Attribute Ichino Type, jump up again with the Wind Attribute and the Ichino Type, attack with some Ichino Type, and then jump up again with the Wind Attribute and the Ichino Type. This is a loop.

　To Muratti, this is an extremely annoying thing to do, with the spinning and spinning and spinning and spinning.


"Mm, oh, oh, oh, that's quite something.

　Now, even though he's mumbling, he seems to be able to follow it with his eyes more and more.

　He's also changing his attack method from "Synergy" to "Compound" to shorten the time, and Muratti himself is also moving around a bit to make it harder for me to fight.

　In other words, our pattern is starting to catch on.

　It's about time. I'm going to make a change here.

　This time, let's change the attack phase to "Thunder Attribute, Sanno Type".


''Whoops!

　Bang!　and a strong thunderstorm roars and Muratti goes down.


　...... Well, that's how he goes down.

　Oh yeah, .............



'Hey ...... don't you think it's funny?'

　He spoke to Muratti in his downed state while chanting the "Lightning Attribute, Sanno Type".


　Muratti nodded his head in agreement, then slowly opened his mouth.

"Ha, I violently agree with you.


　Yes, it's funny.

　There's only one thing.

　The difference in PS (player skill) is the only thing that makes so much of a difference.


　I don't know what you find interesting about it.

　It's just this. It's this. This is the one thing I love, and I love it.


'It's strange. We're on completely different paths, and yet we're looking up at the same sky, looking at the same stars, having fun.
I don't want to complicate things for you, but I'll be happy to have fun with you and Mr. Second ......
It's ......, right?

　I don't like it, Masamune, I've got a bad temper.


"You won't be sorry?　Muratti.
"Moo-ho, Moo-ho-ho-ho!　It's strangely frustrating, isn't it? ...... Yes, strangely.
Are you confused?
Yes, yes ......, why is it so frustrating? I would have been happy if I could only study magic, but... ......

　I wonder why,

　As if asking himself, Muratti repeated.


　You really like ...... witchcraft, don't you?


''You must have been dishonest with yourself for subconsciously feeling that magic was inferior to witchcraft?

!


　I thought so.

　And then, of all things, I woke up defeated by me.

　And then I remembered that witchcraft wasn't even close, yet.


"It's okay, don't get me wrong.

　As I said to reassure him, I activated the "Lightning Attribute, Sanno Type".

　Muratti, who had just gotten up from being down, no longer had any way to avoid it.

　Considering the MGR over there and the INT over here, ...... this would be the final blow.

　Hence, I dare to say it.


'You just sucked at it (・・・・).'


　Both [magic] and [sorcery] are always just there.

　There is no superiority in skills. They perform their respective roles without ever betraying each other.


　You betrayed [sorcery], relied on [sorcery], and lost - you, who were crazy about both of them, thought so and regretted it.


　...... Proof of seriousness (・・・・・).

　As a sorcerer, you were serious and stood up to me, trying to get my head.


　That's all I need to say to myself, I'm really glad I taught you.

　And, hopefully, you'll be able to go even deeper with .......



That's it!　Winner, Second Firth Test Ei-General!


　[Magic] and [Demonology], the two together are what makes the War of the Wise and Powerful.
