Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 246

It's funny that I now know it, but it seems that magic power wasn't something that could be confirmed with the naked eye..

"The demons felt the magic power in me.?"

"It literally means ‘feeling’ it. Like feeling warm and cold water on your skin. 'Ah, there's magical energy moving through that person's body.' It's just a feeling. What has happened to my body that I can see magical power just by passing through the gate?."

I can't reveal that this is a body that was reincarnated through the grace of Epagan, so I really have nothing to say about this. Seneran, who mumbled something deplorable but did not stop examining me with various tools as if conducting a health checkup, soon waved an unknown object, whether it was a syringe or a dropper, which he had first taken out, in front of me and asked..

"First off, here's what it looks like?"

"Well... it doesn't seem to fall off very cleanly. Should I say that light is reflected by oil dissolved in water?..."

However, it doesn't look dirty and has a really pretty and soft glow, but I really don't know how to describe it. Even if I told you it was an effect with 3D graphics, you wouldn’t understand..

However, despite such a vague explanation, Seneran didn't care at all and put the tool into an unidentifiable machine made of a tin can and started fiddling with it, while I passed the time by looking around the room without thinking about it..

Looking back, it is a truly chaotic and hectic room. It's hard to say that it's in a disorganized state, but in the end, the room is in such an ambiguous state that it seems like it's just a pile of things. In addition to the things that Seneran is currently touching, there are also objects scattered around whose purpose it's hard to guess..

There didn't seem to be any need to ask what all that was used for. She had already seen during her travels how much she was putting her life and death into researching magical powers. I guess it all has something to do with it..

"...It's true."

Seneran, who had been struggling with the machine for a while, took out the tools he had put in and took three or four similar items from another drawer and lined them up in front of me..

"This is the magical power extracted from you. The rest is the magic power of the demons.."

"...It's simple."

"It's simple."

Red light. Blue light. Grayish. Well, the contents, which can be roughly described as such, were significantly different from the magic power that was said to have been extracted from me..

"Is that machine checking what kind of light magic is??"

"It's more like a device that helps you see things that you can't see with your eyes. I still can't see what these lights are. You have to put it in the machine and manipulate it to see it.."

Looking at its appearance, it looks like some kind of brewing machine, but it must have functioned like a microscope. Seneran, who had once again become serious while immersed in meaningless sentimentality, spoke as he organized the tools containing magical power..

"Both artificially storing magical power and checking it in this way are only possible with the help of specialized tools. That applies not only to humans... but also to demons. At least as far as I know, there is no one who can see magic directly.."

He looked at me with glaring eyes as if trying to find out what I was thinking, but all I could do was shrug my shoulders..

"I'm a swordsman who just uses what I'm given.."

"...ha. It did. Do you have time? If it's okay with you, I'd like to check some more things.."

Do you think we can find out something specific if we investigate further? If that were possible, it would definitely be a good thing for me, but unfortunately, that day doesn't seem to be today..

"I think it will be difficult today because I have a prior commitment. Let's try again next time.."

"advance reservation?"

"yes. It's been a while since Margrave Levien took the time to do so.."

Is it because the trip took so long without being able to see them off properly? When she went to see Ragnis after completing her business in Ogwen, she was quite upset. She may have been busy with various things, but Ragnis, who had dark circles covered in dark circles and was strongly demanding today's meeting, was filled with venom..

We're making an appointment for the first time in a few weeks, but if you puncture this, it's clear that Ragnis will have all his hair pulled out..

◈

Ragnis woke up and rolled over on the bed, lamenting the fatigue that could not be relieved, but suddenly came to his senses..

Feeling the lingering muscle pain that had been bothering her for the past few weeks, she hurriedly checked the time, realized belatedly that she had woken up at home, not the library in Radnellbandes, and with a long sigh, lay back down in bed..

After the Envelde incident was resolved and her political standing and personal safety suddenly began to resolve, her work began to decrease, and the first thing she visited was Radnellbandes..

When she visited him after returning from business in the empire and asked for practical magic lessons, Radnellbandes silently accepted her request without showing any embarrassment. He accepted it so willingly without even asking why he had made such a decision that Ragnis, who had made the offer with a firm resolve, was rather embarrassed..

From the day Ragnis escaped from Ogwen and first entered the capital, Radnelbandes' consistent attitude was to protect the safety of her, his student. The biggest reason why he, who was originally not very active politically, was on the side of the royal family and wandered around all day long, was himself. There may have been a sense of loyalty to his deceased father and a sense of loyalty to the priest Jigan, but as a result, Radnervandes actively tried to prevent Ragnis from advancing to the front lines to reclaim the territory..

Thorough protection. He was so enthusiastic and active that sometimes he seemed like a grandfather trying to keep his granddaughter away from danger..

No matter how much we talked, Radnellbandes did not even think about giving up his decision. He began to bend his will and listen to his demands as if it were a lie. Of course, I couldn't help but wonder. But soon enough, as class began, Ragnis came to the assumption that his thoughts might be wrong..

The problem was the intensity of the class. After barely surviving his first week on holiday, his classes were so harsh that he seriously wondered if Rad Nelvandes had designed a malicious curriculum to discourage him and make him give up..

No matter how much Ragnis had gone through a difficult time both mentally and physically after the fall of his family, the process of honing his magic and body in a situation that was infinitely close to real life, something he had never experienced before, was not a smooth process. However, Rad Nelvandes persistently tested her limits, even receiving advice from her illusion wizard, and at the same time showed a meticulousness that did not even allow her mind to be eaten by the ruthless theoretical education..

The reason I was able to endure it was purely thanks to the single intention of helping Eldmia's revenge..

In fact, the process is so rigorous that one wonders if he is trying to raise himself as a knight rather than a wizard, and is not even allowed to sleep for 4 hours a day. As Radnellbandes puts it, the process is nothing more than 'the simplest and most basic prior learning.' I graduated two days ago. While Radnellbandes was preparing for the next class, Ragnis returned home for a short break and was stuck in bed unable to even think about doing anything other than eating and sleeping..

I felt like I wanted to do that again today, but my head was clearer than ever and I started to force myself to stand up..

"It's almost time for Eldmia to come..."

Okay. Ragnis got up and rang the bell to call his maids. And although he was uncomfortable due to muscle pain, he took a bath and collected his thoughts..

Almost a month passed without us seeing each other properly as we passed each other several times. She wanted to protest, wondering if this was even possible since they lived in the same city, but since most of the incidents committed by Eldmia were closely related to Ragnis, it was inevitable that she was so busy. However, even though she heard that she had recently left the Ogatorv family and moved to her adventurer district, she was secretly disappointed that she could not even go see her in person. She was upset that she was only staying with Asilie, but since she had been with him since she was young, she deserved it, so she was able to understand it and move on..

I didn't wonder why he left the Ogatorf family. He wasn't particularly worried. The Eldmia Ragnis knew was a man who knew most of what he needed..

Eldmia moves without haste and with a plan so clear that it would be rude to compare her to her peers. I'm just curious about what you'll do next and what your plans are. Because I had to move accordingly..

While continuing his thoughts, Ragnis, who had finished grooming himself with the help of a maid, carefully laid down on the bed to rest while making sure his clothes were not wrinkled. It was the first time in a long time that I took a break without thinking about anything, but my brain, which had gotten used to working hard, started to run on its own and I started reviewing the training and class content from the past few weeks..

"When I rest, I want to rest a little...."

In the end, Ragnis realized that no matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape the cycle of constant review, so he decided to think about a different topic..

It was a simple yet unpredictable topic. What other accidents could have happened to Eldmia in just a few weeks??

Fortunately, the attempt worked, and Ragnis had to frown and groan until the maid entered the room to announce that Eldmia had arrived..
