Chapter 74 – Weapons (2)
“… Starchis is a virgin?”
“..Is there a problem?”
She heard with both ears.
The voice of the woman who shouted the name of Stachis.
He heard that sound through his clothes with wiretapping magic.
It was the clothes I bought to wear when I went to see my girlfriend.
If he was naive, he would have done as she said.
I go on a date wearing the clothes she bought me,
In the end, they would have taken off each other’s clothes and coveted each other’s bodies.
…I thought so, but Starchis is a virgin.
“…It can’t be. I’m sure…”
“Yes? I am not wrong.”
“How do you know?”
Lily couldn’t believe her teacher’s words any more.
It was decided which one could trust more: what he had experienced himself or what someone else had told him.
When Lily disbelieved, the master sighed.
“… Lily, your magical eyes and mine are different.”
She began to explain slowly.
“If you can just look far away or find something, I can see the target’s muscle mass, the scars imprinted on their body, the amount of mana, their holy power, their fighting spirit, everything if you want. Even virginity, which has a lot to do with magic.”
“…But…”
“Did you even see the scene of intercourse?”
At her teacher’s words, Lily rolled her eyes.
“…No.”
Didn’t see
“Then?”
“… I heard.”
Like a confession, Lily had to shake off all her sins from her teacher in order to be confirmed.
“How did you hear?”
“Eavesdropping magic…”
“…Phew..”
The master shrugged.
“The more I look, the more you and I are similar to each other, Lily. The point is that it doesn’t choose the means like that.”
“…”
“You are mistaken. Either that boy made fun of you.”
“I was kidding you..?”
“I thought it was wiretapping magic and pretended to have copulation, or—”
“-Starchis doesn’t!”
Lily exclaims loudly.
“…I’m not a kid like that..”
“…I was kidding. Anyway, he’s never hugged anyone.”
My head was confused, but I felt great joy.
It felt like the stuffiness that had been in my chest for the first time in a long time had been swept away.
There is no woman he has ever had a relationship with.
No woman has ever had the deepest relationship with him.
Lily shook her head.
You shouldn’t believe it easily.
Poison is in the prettiest apple.
I was afraid of getting hurt again if I believed this and it turned out to be untrue.
She calmed herself down, saying her mentor might be wrong.
Or it could be trying to gauge Lily’s reaction.
“You’re playing a joke on me again, Master.”
“What?”
“You have always been like that. Play with me…”
“What do I gain by telling lies like this?”
“… Is it fun to tease me?”
“Hehe, do whatever you want, child. If you don’t believe me, don’t believe me.”
Lily’s heart only beat wildly at the sight of her teacher who seemed to have no regrets.
Really?
Can I believe it?
Hasn’t he crossed the line with Elzain yet?
“…Really?”
“…Huh.”
“Master!”
“Really, Lily. Believe.”
The teacher’s confirming words made Lily teary-eyed.
Elsaine was so envious.
Rather than the sexual intercourse itself being envious,
She was even more envious of the sympathy she would have shared while doing the act.
But she says there is no such thing.
I don’t know what happened, but the sound I heard then wasn’t his intercourse scene.
“You think again, Lily. Was there anything unusual about the situation you heard then?”
Lily scooped up memories she had buried deep down there.
It was a memory that I was suffering for a while and didn’t try to force myself to think about it.
-‘Sa, I love you.. Chis..! Ha ha..!’
I remember the words I heard then.
And I thought of Elza again.
-‘Thank you, Starchis.’
“..Uh?”
Different.
The voice she heard back then and the tone of Elzain were very different.
Elsaine speaks respectfully to Starchis.
The name is not a nickname, but the whole name.
The voice was… Hard to pinpoint.
That’s where the ecclesiastical spirit of a feisty woman lies.
Crucially, when I thought about it again, I couldn’t hear Stachis’ voice.
“..Haha..”
Gradually, trust in the teacher’s words was built up.
He is still innocent
Undefiled by other bitches,
It is still pure.
Then, suddenly, she wonders whose voice she heard.
A woman who would love Starches.
Lily knew most of the girls who liked him.
He had to be aware of the enemy, so the women who came next to him were unconditionally wary.
Among the women who like him, the women who will call him Chis.
Elzain doesn’t call him Chis.
Then, there is only one left.
“…Russ…!”
Lily gnashed her teeth.
In the meantime, she recalls the days she had to suffer because of her.
I don’t know what happened,
Lily can think of a scenario
Russ came into his room and hugged his clothes,
He would have comforted himself by the clothes.
I felt both great relief and anger at the same time.
And finally, I felt impatience again.
The race was not over.
I thought it was over, so I was running because even 2nd place was fine.
There was still a chance to get first place.
Hug him first
A chance to be embraced before Elzain.
“…Master, please tell me.”
“What?”
“Hypnotic magic.”
“…You won’t be able to do what you think.”
Master says.
I can guess from Lily’s suspicious and relieved look right now.
It was like she was on the verge of going crazy after confirming the virginity of the guy she liked.
“…I know.”
After thinking about it for a while, the teacher judges that it is not his part-time job.
There was nothing wrong with her either.
Growing up was a pleasure, if anything, her pleasure.
She did not know if in the future she would become a talented person who would help her with her research on magic.
“Before I tell you, there is something I need to know.”
“What is it?”
“The more you make the subject do something they don’t like, the more likely it is that the hypnosis will break.”
“Yes?”
“What did you hypnotize me about?”
Lily imagined the situation.
She envisions Starchis casting a spell and remaining still.
If she were her, she would smell his body first.
Then take her hand,
She’ll give you a hug or something.
Ultimately, she will hear the words of love from his mouth.
After all, that was the end goal.
“… I want to hear that you love me.”
“Whoops..”
The master laughed as if Lily was cute.
“It might not even be possible.”
“Yes?”
“If the boy hates you, he’s reluctant to say he loves you, and the hypnosis might break.”
“… What if you hate me?”
I’m suddenly scared.
If so, that means to hear that he loves you is to check what he’s been thinking of Lily.
If, by any chance, she felt a huge reluctance to say it and pushed herself away… Just imagining it would break her heart.
“Or, if the boy has a lover and doesn’t want to cheat on her, I might break it.”
“Yes?”
“Why, there are men who don’t look at other women even if they don’t care because they want to be loyal to their lovers. If he’s that kind of guy, he won’t hear that he loves you.”
The plan goes awry.
If that statement is true, there is no way I can hear him say I love him.
Because he was crying out for pure love.
Hard.
It’s Elsaine again.
Even if you cast her magic, you cannot overcome her.
As the teacher said, hypnosis magic was not very convenient.
“…But I’ll learn.”
Lily says.
Even if she doesn’t hear that I love you,
I would be happy just to be in his arms.
Now, the stage of moving mana by touching his body he has passed.
It was because Starchis felt mana on its own.
He had no more excuses to touch his body.
“Lily?”
“Yes?”
“Aside from the hypnotic magic, would you like to talk about the reason I came here in the first place?”
“…Okay.”
“Didn’t that child ask for a way to move mana on its own?”
“Yes.”
“Actually, it’s a job that will take quite a long time. You know?”
Lily didn’t know that it was the same way.
Its duration is long.
There is a big difference between feeling where her feet are her and walking with them.
“You’ve been asking me for advice over and over, haven’t you?”
“Yes. A little soon… I hope he gets better.”
The master asks
“What if I could shorten that period?”
“..Yes?”
Lily doubts her ears her.
There was none of that when she became a wizard.
She progressed slowly day by day until she eventually awakened as a wizard.
If she had such a convenient method, she couldn’t figure out why she didn’t try it when she became a wizard herself.
“Is there a way?”
“Then, I also did a lot of research during that time.”
“Well, can you help me with that?”
Lily would prefer anything if the period could be shortened.
Now, she was happy with her time with Starchis, but
She wanted to see Stachis’ expression, who would be happier than him.
“That child, you don’t need a lot of magic power, do you?”
“Yes. It just needs to be able to move your hand through the flow.”
“Well, this method is fast, but it has the downside of significantly reducing mana costs, so I’m asking.”
Lily agrees.
There was no problem.
As long as it moves without releasing the mana in the body
It doesn’t matter how much mana is reduced.
Starchis already knows how to fight.
There is no need to use magic again.
Rather than learning new skills,
It was better to help them use their original skills again.
“..It will be fine. I’ll ask Starchis next time.”
“Okay, so that’s it, and then again.”
“..Yes?”
“The materials required to use this method are really expensive. It literally cuts down a huge amount of time. You might be able to use your hands right away.”
“Really?!”
“Yes, but Lily.”
And only then, the real face of the teacher that Lily had been afraid of, or wary of, came out.
For the sake of magic, she is her master her, giving everything.
This treatment she showed herself was very special.
Originally, it bounced a little more freely.
Her expression changed drastically and she asked coldly.
“What will you do for me?”
It was very clear that the master was not joking.
She wanted a decent price.
It wasn’t something that could be beaten with an absurdly simple reward.
“As I said, it is a really expensive material. Give me a reason why I shouldn’t use it elsewhere.”
“…”
“Of course, I came because I was worried about you, but I didn’t come with the intention of only helping one-sidedly.”
“..Do you want something?”
The master smiles seductively.
“Now you can talk. Um… Shall we see?”
The master started to circle Lily.
“..I will teach you hypnosis magic and help you move the hand of the boy you like. Instead..”
-Widely.
The master gently grabs Lily’s chin.
“You come back to me.”
“Yes?”
“Come back and help me with my research. I think it will help a lot.”
“… Did you mean to do this from the beginning?”
“No, Lily. The reason I came here is as written in the letter. I came because your thoughts kept getting trampled on and interfering with your research.”
“…”
“Hehe, but seeing you in person made me greedy. The fact that he doesn’t choose any means and methods, the vast amount of mana… It sounds like he suddenly became greedy.”
To return to the master,
It means to leave Starchis’ side.
That is impossible.
“…No.”
“Yes?”
“I don’t want to leave Stachis.”
“…Okay?”
Lily raised her head and shot her master.
“Master! Everything I’m doing is for Stachis, so stay away from him! Isn’t that too cruel?”
“Hmm.. Is that so?”
“…”
The teacher suffered and accepted Lily’s proposal.
“Okay, then let’s make a condition.”
“…I’m listening.”
“Then, if you don’t like that boy named Stachis, let him come to me.”
“…Yes?”
“If you don’t get chosen by that child, wouldn’t it be meaningless anyway? He’ll let you come to me when the kid abandons you, he hates you, or he dies. In exchange for this condition, the moment you come to me, you must give your life for me. All the way until I die How are you?”
Lily finishes her thoughts for a moment.
“…I see. I will make one more condition.”
“What?”
“Master, don’t approach Stachis. You might talk like this, approach me, shake me into hating me, or… Kill me.”
Shit.
The master smiles.
“You know me so well. Okay. I will accept that too.”
“…Like.”
I was worried about many things,
Lily took her master’s hand her.
Life is long.
And the life of a wizard is even longer.
She’ll bet everything
She may or may not be able to listen to his heart her.
But it’s okay if you can’t.
First of all, his arm gets better.
He is an arm injured by himself.
You have to fix it even if you walk through life.
Anyway, the life he saved, he can give it back.
Especially if the rest of his life was not chosen by him.
What if.
If there is a one-in-a-thousand probability of being connected to him,
Everything becomes magical.
If you fail, you lose a lot,
If you succeed, you win more gamble.
If you fail to lift his heart his,
He heals his arm her, but the rest of her life her is devoted to her master her,
If you like him
He had no reason to fix his arm his, get Starchis, or spend the rest of his life for his master his.
From this moment on, she will bet everything.
The master warmed up and got up.
“Then, shall we teach you hypnosis magic?”
