Genius Warlock-Episode 269
Kevin asked me to explain..
Showing great interest and interest in the educational methods mentioned by Oliver..
A quite unusual reaction, even though one is not surprised in most situations..
In keeping with the response, Oliver explained in detail his own teaching method..
We seek to improve our skills through self-practice, but we also help you get a feel for any areas you get stuck on..
Kevin asked a question.
“What exactly does it mean to help you get a feel for it??”
“I am letting you feel my tricks indirectly by lightly touching your body... … . To put it in an analogy, it is similar to holding someone from behind when riding a two-wheeled bicycle.."
Oliver was neither humble nor arrogant, and spoke his thoughts without hesitation..
It was an effective method, but in the end, it wasn't much different from holding a bicycle..
However, Kevin's reaction was a little different than expected..
He was more surprised and curious than Oliver expected..
It's like you've never heard of it before.
“well… … . I don't understand..”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, this is the first time I've heard of that..”
Kevin was sincere, and Oliver was a little surprised too..
This is my first time hearing it... … . I never really thought about this ability in the first place, but I didn't realize it would be that bad..
In particular, I thought that someone as knowledgeable as Kevin would know similar things.……
I thought he was exaggerating, but Kevin's reaction was genuine, and he was quite shocked and impressed by what Oliver had said. It's like I discovered something great..
When asked about this, Kevin spoke cautiously:.
“……It's not a field I know much about, so I can't give an opinion, but in my personal opinion, it's great.."
“Is that so?”
“Yes, because it can dramatically increase the efficiency of education..”
Dramatically increase the efficiency of education... … . I didn’t think it was wrong..
With this, the Joseph family, including Marie, and the fighter crew grew quickly..
‘hmm… … . Now that I think about it, I wrote it very comfortably.?’
Thinking about it now, Oliver looked at his hands as he remembered the smooth training process..
Oliver lost in thought. Kevin spoke to Oliver..
“Are there any specific examples of training using it? I'm not doubting it.”
I meant it this time too. Kevin believed everything Oliver said..
“I can't be specific, but it happened about twice..”
Oliver deliberately did not mention the Joseph family and the fighter crew..
I didn't promise not to talk about it, but I thought it would be rude to talk freely..
Fortunately, Kevin didn't go into detail either..
“Right… … . Are there any training logs or records??”
“no, there isn't.”
“Too bad.”
“I feel a little sad too.”
Oliver said sincerely. I realized too late how important the training log is in the process of educating Magic Tower students..
Kevin paused and then opened his mouth again..
“hmm..… . Well then, can you try it on me? This is my first time seeing it, so I want to see it with my own eyes..”
Oliver thought for a moment, condensed magical energy into his fingertips, and then flicked it..
Just-
At the same time, two magics were activated simultaneously..
One was a soundproofing spell that prevented sound from leaking throughout the room, and the other was a sensor magic that notified nearby approaches..
It didn't mean much to Oliver, who had the eyes of a warlock, but he was careful just in case..
“If you don't mind, could you please hold out your hands??”
Kevin held out his hands without hesitation..
Oliver took out a test tube from his pocket and extracted the emotions. I placed it between Kevin's hands..
“do you feel something?”
"no. I'm not a warlock.”
As soon as he heard the answer, Oliver took his hand outside of Kevin and placed it on top of him..
Since this was my first time experiencing something like this, I was doubtful whether it would work out well, but well, I didn't lose anything even if I failed, so I started with peace of mind..
“oh… … . It works.”
After a while, Oliver said.
The black emotion that was like intangible smoke between Kevin's hands was transformed into a circle by Kevin's hands folded together..
“......like.”
Kevin exclaimed with interest..
“What is this?”
“This is one of the basic trainings I learned when I was taken over by my master..”
“basic?”
“Yes, just like wizards manipulate magic, warlocks must also be able to manipulate emotions. First, make sure you have the eyes to see your emotions, then learn to extract them and control them..”
Oliver said, tracing his past memories..
About 2 or 3 years? It wasn't that long ago, but it felt like a lot of time had passed..
“Interesting… … . I've dealt with warlocks on the battlefield and in cities, but I've never thought about their training methods..”
“Is that so?”
Oliver asked back in surprise..
That's because Oliver was very interested in the educational methods of wizards..
That was one of the reasons why I readily accepted when Merlin told me to go to the Magic Tower..
But when I thought about it calmly, it might have been natural..
It was difficult to compare wizards and warlocks on the same level..
It wasn't a story about who was superior. Oliver didn't think that way anymore..
However, the scale and systematicity of the organization were still far superior to that of the wizard..
That's what Oliver thought after seeing and feeling the organizational power indirectly at the Magic Tower..
“What's next??”
Kevin asked a question to Oliver, who was lost in his thoughts again..
Oliver came to his senses and moved on to the next step..
“Creating increasingly complex shapes.”
Oliver manipulated Kevin's emotions through his hands and changed his shape..
From circles to squares, triangles, stars, cones, spirals, and even spider web shapes.……
“I taught it roughly like this. Most people got the hang of it quickly... … . can you feel it?”
Kevin responded by manipulating his emotions..
Surprisingly, even though he was a wizard who had no experience dealing with emotions, he was quite adept at controlling them..
“Oh, that's great. You have talent here too..”
"well……?”
Kevin answered with a questioning look..
Although his lack of confidence was surprising, Oliver cheered him on..
“no. At least in my opinion, you seem to have talent. It's rare to find someone who deals with it right away like this..”
Kevin asked, staring at the emotions moving in his hands. Oliver didn't seem to be very impressed by what he said..
“……Also, what’s next??”
“Once you can create emotions properly, you can then manipulate them faster..”
Oliver raised his index finger and placed it on the back of Kevin's hand, controlling his emotions once again..
The emotions between Kevin's hands flowed in a steady stream, freely changing their form, like a living, amorphous creature..
So much so that it's hard to follow with your eyes..
“However, the important thing here is not only the speed, but also the correct shape..”
“Okay, I understand… … . It's similar to magic..”
"oh… … . I also agree. Although magic and black magic seem very different, I personally think they are related..”
Oliver said happily. He couldn't believe the wizard would agree to an idea he had been harboring for a long time... … . How was it fun?.
However, Kevin just stared at Oliver, as if he had different thoughts..
“Did I make a mistake again??”
“No, it's not like that. Rather, can this be applied to magic??”
“I don't know about that either. This is my first time teaching a wizard.."
It's true, but it was a strangely shameless answer that perplexed the listener..
Fortunately, Kevin was somewhat used to Oliver and was not too upset..
“Good. Well then, try an experiment on me..”
“……Is that okay??”
“of course. Rather, I feel like asking a favor..”
"Ah, then, thank you, I will try the experiment..”
Oliver rolled up his hands and answered, then placed his hand on the back of Kevin's hand..
“……But is there any magic you can’t do??”
Oliver asked, belatedly remembering an important fact..
Kevin is the wizard of the Magic Tower. It was also a master.
Master is the highest rank after Grand Master and One Master.).
It was absurd to teach him magic indirectly..
Kevin hesitated for a moment as if he had finally realized this fact..
“well… … . space magic?”
“I can’t write that properly either… … . Can't you use ice or air magic??”
“There is only a difference in skill level, but I can use all elemental magic. The same goes for pure horsepower..”
“ah……."
Oliver shouted as he looked at Kevin, who was so excellent..
Being too talented is holding you back. I was embarrassed. Then suddenly a good thought passed through Oliver's head..
“Excuse me.”
Oliver puts his hand on the back of Kevin's hand again..
“What are you trying to do??”
“Please wait a moment.”
Oliver asked for forgiveness, concentrated his mind, and controlled Kevin's magical power through the back of Kevin's hand, creating a small flame between his hands..
“this is-”
“-It's not an ordinary flame..”
Kevin cut off Oliver's words while he was trying to explain..
“It's the flame of Willes..”
"Do you know each other??”
“no. I just heard rumors about him during his days as a military wizard. There is a guy who uses vicious flames that suck up magical power... … . By the way, you are writing."
“We worked together on a business trip last time, and I saw it and imitated it..”
Oliver said it as if it was no big deal, but Kevin felt dizzy when he heard it..
I was interested in the magic and studied it, but was unable to achieve any results, so I implemented it with a half-hearted response by imitating Oliver..
However, what was more shocking than that was the fact that he was telling this to Kevin..
To make you understand the complex techniques and subtle tricks just by touching your hand... … . I had no idea what to say..
“Do you understand? Techniques and tips for using them.”
Oliver asked, Kevin answered.
“……I think I know.”
As if to prove his point, Kevin carefully controlled the flames that could engulf even the magician..
It was a bit clumsy, but considering it was my first time dealing with it, it was really great..
"thank god… … . So, can I use this method to help the students I am currently in charge of??”
“I plan to help you from start to finish.?”
Oliver shook his head..
“No, that's not it. We'll just give you some help with the parts you're having trouble with. If you can't make a circle, it helps you get a feel for how to make a circle. You have to learn the rest yourself..”
“I kinda know what you mean... … . Did the other warlocks you taught teach the same way??”
“yes.”
“……I'm curious, why did you teach it that way? It would have been faster and more convenient if I had taught it this way from beginning to end..”
"……? I just helped them through their efforts, but wouldn't that be the end of the story??”
Oliver answered with an expression of complete incomprehension..
***
“So what did you say??”
A study inside the mansion. There, Merlin looked for her book and asked.
Kevin replied.
“It was the same as the first time. I asked if I could use that method to help Felix and other hard-working students. If you help a few hard-working students, other students will be motivated too..”
“Not a bad idea. So what did you answer??”
“I asked them to wait a little bit. I said I should ask Master's opinion..”
“my opinion?”
“Yes, you are the one responsible for this, aren't you??”
“But if something goes wrong, I plan to pretend not to know right away.?”
Merlin joked, but as usual, Kevin didn't buy it..
Especially this time.
“This is no joke, right??”
“is it?”
“yes. I'm sure I'm the one who said you have to face various situations, but this... … . It's beyond your imagination.”
Kevin, prepared to make some noise, said this. Because it was truly beyond my imagination.
“I see you say that. I guess Dave's talent is amazing..”
“Master… … . For people, talent means being stronger or having faster legs than others. This is not an expression used when flying in the sky..”
If someone unfamiliar with the statement heard it, they would say it was an exaggeration, but Kevin, the person involved, did not think so at all. This too was an understatement..
“I know Dave is just giving me tips, but from what I've seen, that's not the case at all..”
“then?”
“……I never thought I would use such emotional expressions, but sharing my talents... … . No, this is also wrong. Sharing means taking something from yourself and giving it away. Because he's just giving it away... … . Like a blessing.”
"That's really not like you..”
“I think so too. But there is no way to express it other than this..”
Kevin spoke his honest thoughts..
The fact that he was able to teach me how to use advanced magic through just one intervention could only be described as a blessing and a miracle..
Talent was not something that could be compared to something widespread..
“Depending on what Dave wants to do, he can create a school with hundreds of years of history or a magic tower with decades of history all by himself in a short period of time... … . Still don't know what it is? By any chance, does it have something to do with the prophetic books, eschatology, archive chronology, and the devil's books that I'm currently looking through??”
Merlin pondered before answering Kevin's question..
“I'm not sure, but I have a few hypotheses..”
“What is?”
“I'll tell you about that later. It's just a hypothesis.”
Kevin was about to protest, but when he saw Merlin's expression, he quickly stopped..
It was an expression I hadn’t seen in a long time. The same facial expression as when I officially inherited the archive..
“……Are you very serious??”
“It may be serious, or it may not. Whatever happens, if you look at it from afar, it's a comedy..”
“……Dave said he wanted to meet you and asked if there was a way to contact him..”
"me?"
“Yes, I have a question about the World Tree. What should I say??”
“hmm… … . Good. I also checked something, so I thought I'd come back soon, but I guess we can meet and solve any questions we have. I will also talk about training then. Just go away.”
As Merlin finished speaking, he took out an old book from the bookshelf again..
There was an inscription on the bookshelf:.
