This Regressor Does It for Free! 20

Chapter 20 – Practice (2)

*

Lina was dreaming.

It is still clearly visible in my mind. It means that his colleagues, who were more courageous and righteous than anyone else, died mercilessly.

People sing of a hero’s death. He was said to be a hero who saved the world, and his death was glorified and praised.

However, Lina, who faced the reality herself, was well aware of how cruel and terrible it was.

There was no honor in death. It is only living people who give honor to death.

No one cares how miserably and painfully the dead heroes died, how indescribably insulted they were.

A colleague who was famous as a righteous man was eaten alive by monsters. You don’t know what a terrible scream it was.

[Quaaaaagh! Rather kill it! Kill!]

The saintess who was blessed by the goddess died while being ridiculed and ridiculed at the hands of her enemies.

[Huh! No! Don’t open up there! I hate to see you there! I hate it!]

Victoria, who had been protecting her comrades at the forefront, had become an unrecognizable piece of meat after countless hacking by the enemies.

[Reena. Please live up to my share.]

There is no honor in death. Lina knew that very well. With her eyes closed, Lina’s mind constantly recalls the end of her dying colleagues.

No one had any reason to die. They were great men who deserved to be called heroes.

The person who led those heroes was Lina.

Every time her colleagues died, Lina saw a ghost.

The ghosts asked why they couldn’t save themselves, and if their deaths were really worth it.
Rina couldn’t answer.

Even when he reached the end of the battle and won the victory in the temple, he could not answer.

Because there was no one left around Lina. On a land of red blood and corpses, Lina stood alone.

‘In this life… I won’t let anyone do that. I will protect it no matter what.’

Lina’s dream continued.

It was a dream in which Victoria, whom she regarded as her younger sister, was crying as she lost her family and was hurt physically and mentally, just like in her previous life.

Victoria blamed Lina for not being able to save her.

Lina woke up from that terrible dream and screamed.

“No way!”

Woke up from a dream I’m glad it was a dream.

But it was time to come to my senses and look around.
The comrades who had been sleeping in a circle around the bonfire woke up and were staring at him.

In particular, when I met Kerry’s gaze, I thought I would die of embarrassment.

“I’m sorry!”

Lina apologized and pulled the blanket over her face.

*

Lina and the others were on their way to rescue Victoria, a former colleague. Because Victoria became the target of assassination by the organization like her previous life.

Lina really wanted to save Victoria.

The party busily tidied up and prepared to move.

Kerry took good care of this and that, so Lina had nothing to worry about.
In the first place, Lina is not good at this kind of thing.
It was because he had a good temperament and was uncomfortable asking others to do something.

It wasn’t a big deal, but I felt grateful for Kerry’s presence.

“Then we will depart. Sirs.”

Lina and the others started moving in a wagon.

Everyone in the carriage was staring at Lina.

“Lina-sama. You must have had a nightmare yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve seen Lina-nim scream like that.”

Kerry playfully saying “No” And imitating Lina was very nasty.
Lina answered, looking away from her, her face slightly reddened.

“Yes…I had a rather bad nightmare.”

From Lina’s point of view, it was justified. Because her colleague Victoria, whom she considers like her own sister, has become the target just like her previous life.

All day Lina’s mind was to prevent the terrible slaughter of her.
Kerry jokingly imitated what had happened last night, but she knew the truth.

‘It looks like Victoria, who I’m going to rescue, has been through quite a few terrible things.’

Knowing that Lina was her regressor, it was a guess we could make.
After seeing her assassination order, Lina’s laughter suddenly diminished.

‘Cheer up! It’s Lina I’ll try to help somehow.’

The journey was smooth. She’s sometimes bothered by goblins and kobolds, but she’s no match for them.

Rather, it was just a target for Rina to relieve her stress. Natasha, too, was actively fighting her goons, probably because her body was itchy.

It is a leisurely journey. Now it’s just a few more days away, she says.
Not too far away It was probably because I couldn’t move when it was dark.

It was a troublesome night, but Kerry was waiting for the day to get dark.
Because at night she can be alone.

“Huh. I guess I can finally charge the magic storage marbles.”

The charge of the magic storage orb I heard from the White Witch. As much as this she said she should be Kerry herself.
I had already given the White Witch an explanation.

[Think of mana being stored in her orbs, just as you are storing mana in her heart. But not as slow as it accumulates directly in her body. In an hour, she’ll probably be able to recharge.]

It’s an hour It is said that this is also what the White Witch told me about my talent.

It’s dawn. Kerry made sure her party slept well.

‘Everyone is sleeping well. Even the coachman said she would stay awake, so she sleeps well.’

Everyone in the party seemed to be in a deep sleep. Kerry needed a quiet place to concentrate, so she stepped into the empty carriage.

The cold air in the carriage lifted her spirits.

“Then let’s begin.”

She sits in zazen. She then placed a marble in the middle of her.

Kerry began to focus her attention.

The inner world is automatically drawn in my head.

A world where you can see something completely identical to reality but invisible.

Kerry was well aware that that invisible thing was now mana.
It is a slightly different method of charging marbles than building mana in the heart through breathing.

According to the White Witch, the orb is much stronger than the human body, so she said that she could easily pour mana into it.

It was the sensation, she said, that the White Witch put a calming vortex into her orb.

Kerry began to concentrate while imagining a vortex. In the inner world, the mana in the wagon moves slowly.

She slowly began to take the shape of a whirlwind. At the center of the mana whirlwind was a mana storage orb.

You have to focus.

Feeling the mana in the air and moving at the same time was something Kerry wasn’t used to yet.
The mana in the inner world moves like a whirlpool.

The blue mana slowly moved in the shape of the Milky Way.

Now, all of the mana in the wagon was under Kerry’s control.

Kerry slowly poured mana into her orb, starting near the center of the vortex. Mana storage orbs emit a faint light.

It meant things were going well.

Every time he put in mana little by little, the speed began to rise by itself, as if inertia was attached.

The movement of mana, which had been moving slowly like the Milky Way, became faster. Sweat dripped down Kerry’s forehead.

It was Kerry who was focused without knowing the time. The hour the White Witch had spoken of was drawing near.

Kerry was so focused that she wasn’t even aware that her entire body was wet with sweat.

The mana that was rushing into the vortex is sucked into her beads more and more rapidly.
You don’t have to worry about overloading like the human body. When the time comes, her orb will refuse to accept mana.

How much mana did you put in?

The magic storage orb flashed and glowed. The windows of the carriage flashed briefly.
Inside the wagon, there was an orb that glowed softly in blue. Kerry lifted her magic storage orb into her hand.

“…Is it a success?”

Maybe it will be a success I’ll have to ask the White Witch for the exact details, but it’s similar to what I’ve heard.

Now you can use magic! It was a great event two years after coming to this world. It couldn’t have been a moment of overwhelming emotion.

I felt like I wanted to use a magic bead right away, but it was a dark night.

Everyone in the party was also sleeping, so I had no choice but to endure it now.

“I can’t use magic right now, but I should check if this is correct, right?”

There is still time until morning.

I might be a bit short of sleep, but I won’t be able to use magic at last, and I won’t be able to sleep.
Kerry pulled out her wand and moved to the White Witch.

*

“From now on, how about making an appointment and coming?

The White Witch must have been changing her clothes, she said as she hurriedly adjusted her clothes. The look was pretty cool.

There is a slightly awkward atmosphere. Maybe it’s because the white witch is changing her clothes. She was there, and she even had a bedroom.

The white witch also had a strangely red face. The time she was with the white witch in that bed kept flashing in her mind before her eyes.

Said the White Witch as if to blow away her awkwardness.

“Seeing that you came back after a day… You must have succeeded.”

“…”

When Kerry didn’t answer, the White Witch hurriedly continued her words.

“Well, come to think of it, even the original woman has questions. Doesn’t she always ask only you?”

“What is she curious about?”

“Your name… What is your name?”

“Kerry.”

“Can I call you Kerry?”

“Do whatever you want. Come to think of it, I don’t know the witch’s name either. What’s the name of the witch?”

“Andreana Carteret.”

“It’s so damn hard to call. I’ll just call you Witch.”

“…Do whatever you want.”

‘Why does it become strange when I’m alone with this guy?’

It may be because they have already mixed their bodies once. To be honest, that moment is still vivid in my memory.

Having lived here alone for a hundred years, it was the first time she had ever been so strongly stimulated.

She said, ‘She was forced to… She must have suffered a serious injury to her pride… But why doesn’t she hate the memory of her back then?’

The White Witch couldn’t understand her own mind. It was the first time she had ever been like this.
Suddenly, when she saw Kerry, her heart beat quickened little by little.

It was Kerry who woke the witch who was lost in her wandering thoughts.

“Witch. Please look at this.”

The white witch looked at the marble Kerry held out to her. A magic storage orb full of brilliant blue mana.

‘As expected, it was a success.’

In just one day, Kerry did what she had only explained with her words, without her demonstration.
A talent that could be called innate. After all, Kerry was an unusual man, unlike her appearance.

She was very different from the men of mediocre talent the White Witch had seen.
This is the first time she has met a man with talent equal to hers.

“It’s pretty… But I didn’t expect to be able to do it in one day.”

“As the witch said, it’s not easy to store mana in the heart, but in the image of storing it in beads.”

‘If it were easier said than done, no one would suffer.’

The white witch looked at her mana-filled orb.

“It looks like you haven’t used the magic engraved on this bead yet. Would you like to try it here?”

“Can I try it?”

“Yes. If it’s outside the bedroom, it’s possible.”

Come to think of it, she had never left the White Witch’s bedroom.

The White Witch and Kerry went outside.

As it turned out, it was not just a bedroom, but a huge white castle.

“This must have been a castle…”

“Then did she think the original daughter would live in her single room?”

Outside the castle was a vast grassland area. Although there was nothing there, the atmosphere made me understand why the witch had said that she was in utopia.

“It’s okay if her original daughter’s last name falls by this much. She wants to use her magic to her heart’s content.”

Kerry took her marbles out of her pocket and held them up. An orb containing brilliant mana. In the meantime, she had seen magic come out of beads twice.

Once when he was a bandit and once when Lina demonstrated her.

It was a spectacle not enough to say that it was magic that the blade of the invisible wind ripped through the ground while making a piercing sound.

“Whoa.”

Take one big breath. The operation of the charged orb is simple.

He said that if you strongly image the magic engraved on the marble while holding the marble, the rest will be taken care of. I don’t know what principle it is.

“Wind Blade.”

It was at the same time as Kerry muttered. Kerry’s hair fluttered, and the wind began to gust around her.
