138 – Fountain of Memory
”Oops, excuse me…!”
But Lapin didn’t care about that and was licking the lollipop that Chaewon gave him deliciously. She really seemed like a spoiled child.
“Hueeng. Sweet.”
“As expected, it’s like my friend Chaewon. To say I’m a kid in front of an angel. It’s something even I can’t do.”
“Noisy! I’m so sorry I…”
“It’s okay. I gave you candy, don’t mind it.”
As the inside of the cave became crowded, Hae-hwang also found us.
-Hero~. Goddess. You’re here again.
She wags her fins. And that’s not all. As if she wanted to express her joy with her whole body, she jumped on the water like her whale. But if you land like that, the water won’t splash.
Plop!
As expected, an enormous wave befitting his body swept in. Is she going to say goodbye at the same time as saying hello?
“Kyaaagh! I’m being swept away.”
“Don’t panic. Grab the staff. The 202nd Trial of the Sea. Huhu.”
Perfect!
[Trite’s Authority has been activated!]
She hurled the huge wave back into the cave lake and said,
“If you say hello one more time, everything will be washed away.”
– Woo-hoo-hoo. I greeted you like this because you know how to use authority. More than that, it seems that you have also obtained Mune-sama’s authority. Seeing that Lapin-sama is also there…
Hae-hwang’s expression darkened, as if everyone noticed even if I didn’t say anything. But in case there are still people who don’t know, I explained everything that happened in the Memory Fountain.
-Thank you again for saving Mne. Mne is the one who remembers everything, and thanks to that, he was the one who took good care of this and that… He really helped me a lot.
A personality that likes to be taken care of.
Maybe that’s why he took care of me when I left.
“Is he also a spirit born at the same time?”
-No. He was born much earlier than us. From a human point of view, someone like a mother…?
“I see.”
-The appearance is also different from me and Dine, yes. She resembles the Goddess of Light who is standing now. Standing on your own two feet as a human… How does it feel?
“Hmm. Would you like to try it?”
I looked at Linne. She also willingly approached Linne to teach her polymorph magic.
-I can’t believe it! Wind dragon? It’s a wind dragon, right?! How can they take human form… Come to think of it, dragons can turn into humans through strange magic…
“Would you like to learn that strange magic?”
-Please teach me!
Befitting a spirit called Sea Hwang, it didn’t take long to learn Polymorph.
Trite transformed into a woman with short blue hair and a warm impression.
But she was just like Diné before, wearing nothing and only covering her body with steam.
-…Why is everyone like that? Ah. Now that she has become human, she must speak with her mouth. Mum. Because I’m not used to it.
She opened her mouth and continued her speech.
“Come to think of it, everyone is wearing something different from me. Umm…”
She inspected her headmaster’s clothes and flicked her hand. That’s how she was, wearing the pure white Lucia Order uniform.
“Oh~ You look good. Would you like to join our church now?”
“I’m sorry, but I’ll refuse. Unlike Dine’s mission to protect the lake in the beginning, my mission is the freedom to flow wherever you want like the sea. So I don’t want to be tied down anywhere. Whoops. But…”
She smiled and looked me in the eye.
“I owe a lot to the hero, so I will cooperate until the demon is defeated.”
“Another amazing woman next to Lee Do…”
“…”
In the meantime, Seohyun approached and held out her staff to Hae-hwang.
“Now that it’s turned into a human, maybe it’ll be more helpful in training.”
“Yes. Suddenly, we are on eye level with you all. Have you taken a break now? Shall we start again? Oh, please keep an eye on Lafang-nim and the hero. Especially since the hero has even obtained the power of Mune-nim. ..”
That’s right. You can learn some of the water magic that Haehwang uses. Of course, it is impossible to learn the superlative magic of the ocean, which uses the fusion of water and electricity. Because the description only says that it is limited to water magic.
Training with Hae-hwang begins. First, Hae-hwang stretched out his hand and showed a brilliant drop of water. I didn’t know exactly, but I knew in an instant that it was quite a powerful magic.
“Keuuu! Tritte-nim is amazing. You must have been asleep for a very long time, but your skills haven’t rusted.”
Raffang stretched out its wings and climbed up to examine the water droplets in more detail.
“Now, children with similar powers to my magic. Try to break these drops.”
“That thing really didn’t break. For several hours, Seohyun even used semi-top level magic, but there was no sign of it.”
“I see…”
Sorry for interfering with the training, but I really wanted to use Mne’s authority.
[Used Mune’s Authority!]
[You have learned Advanced Water Magic – Brilliant Water Drop of the Sea.]
I also stretched out my hand and made the same brilliant water droplets.
Puong!
The same drop of water collided with each other and disappeared.
“Oh! What? We worked so hard… That was so easy…”
“That’s the power of the spirit called Mine. It’s wonderful. You can imitate it just by looking at it.”
Stop talking, Seohyun was deep in thought.
“I see. If you use the same magic, it will break in an instant… Did you want to tell me that, too?”
Huh?

Not at all. I was just testing the powers. Chaewon also nodded his head, as if realizing something.
“Aha. I didn’t think to break it, but we had to make the same drop of water. Keuuu! After all, SS-class wizards are different. I showed it through my actions rather than words.”
“… That’s right. Keep working hard.”
“Yes!”
Also, while using this power, I decided to learn Lafang’s purifying water. There is a purifying light, so there is nothing to use, but there is nothing to lose by preparing because you do not know everything in the world.
“Water of purification? Okay, warrior. Please wait!”
The water of purification. Hae-hwang, the head of the church, and especially Chae-won showed interest in whether I was the only one curious.
“So purifying water…”
Lapin put his hands together as if praying, then spread them out as if offering something. Then, pure white, light-like water appeared above it.
“This is it!”
“Oh.”
“This is amazing… Lapin, one of the three great angels!”
“Ehehehe.”
The denomination leader took out the bible he always had in his arms and asked for an interpretation.
“It’s a book about how to use the water of purification. It was written by Lapin, right?”
“Yes!
“I somehow interpreted the ancient language… But I don’t understand this…”
[The way to use the water of purification is to use it generously.]
“What is green onion, puffy? And the figure written next to it… Did you draw a picture of how to use the water of purification?”
“Uh… Um. I just scribbled it because I was bored writing the bible! And it’s literal, it’s swell! It’s named after me.”
“…”
Anyway, Lapin seemed to have no talent for teaching. Anyway, I succeeded in making the water of purification using the power of Mune.
“Kyaa! As expected, warrior! You have succeeded very well. Did my bible help you?”
I think that’s rather confusing. I decided not to say anything for fear of getting hurt.

Looking at the time, it’s evening, and the dormitory’s curfew is approaching. Seohyun and Chaewon both came out of the cave with tired faces.
“Ugh… I wanted to do a little more.”
“Come back tomorrow.”
“Of course! Purification water or something. I’ll cook it up.”
By the way, the leader and Lafang got along well and decided to stay together on Siren Island for the time being.
“The goal is to follow the brilliant water drops that Hae-hwang showed. In addition, Chae-won, if you learn the water of purification and I become stronger, won’t I be able to surpass even Hae-hwang?”
“Yeah. Let’s jump over it. That whale!”
I said goodbye to Lynne before boarding the church car driven by the Vice-Chief.
“If Ido didn’t show up at that time, the mother and the spirits along with the island…”
“Things went well, let’s not think that way.”
When I smiled, she smiled along.
“As always, if you need anything at any time, call me. Demon, no, even after I deal with the demon… I will be with you.”
“Yes. Thank you very much.”
I was about to get into the vice-captain’s car, but everyone was looking at me and Rinne through the window.
“Did you get a good view…”

That night, in the freshman room at Delaon Academy. Teachers were having a meeting for an upcoming event, the 1st grade class competition.
The main issue is, of course, the balance issue.
Class B was so strong that the results of Nugabo’s prediction were obvious. So naturally, I came to mention the strong people of Class B.
“First of all, Choi Yoo-eun must be strong enough for everyone to know.”
Yu-Eun Choi is the number 1 student in both the 1st and 2nd semesters.
She’s not the only one. She showed off her father’s use of the fire dragon’s flame during the midterm sparring test.
“If it was just that one student, I would have somehow gotten over it… The problem is this student.”
Chuck!
Mi-suk put Kim Yi-do’s personal information on her whiteboard next to Yoo-eun Choi.
“Kim Yi-do, who came in 2nd place from 222nd in the school rankings in the 1st semester to 220th in the 2nd semester. Wow… How many 2’s. That’s a strange coincidence. I got scolded while pronouncing it.”
After hearing that, the first-year manager, Kwak Beom-cheol, stroked his beard and replied.
“Actually, he’s number one, isn’t he?”
“Yes. I don’t know what kind of magic it was, but Choi Yoo-Eun received her student’s magic very easily and defeated it. She not only did that, but also changed her attributes to her own main attribute, her ice.”
Apart from whether it is possible. The question is whether there is a person in the first year who can beat such a student…
“Should I tell you not to use it?”
“There is no comedy in telling students not to use the magic they have cultivated through hard work.”
“Well…”
When she couldn’t come up with a good method, she called Lee Bo-ram, the homeroom teacher for class B.
“Do you have any ideas?”
“Yes, yes?! Mmm!”
She was quietly drinking her coffee from her paper cup, and she panicked as if someone had a spark on her leg.
“Bae, do you put in ban-picks…?”
“Is this a game? And I’m creating a stage for students to play an active role, but what if I get banned from participating?”
“That’s great. I’m sorry.”

Numerous agendas came and went, but nothing came of it. At that moment, the door to the first year room opened, and the head and vice-captain of the Magic Exploration Department appeared.
“Why are you guys here?”
“I heard that the anti-class meeting is quite a headache.”
“Yes, but…”
Seohyun spat out nonsensical words with a very calm expression.
“We also want to participate in the first year class competition.”
“You, are you a third grader?!”
“Two years ago, I was a freshman, so it doesn’t matter.”
“… Huh?”
“Hey. How can I say that? Surprise the teachers.”
As if Chaewon was trying to catch up, he added.
“Since long ago, Seohyun-ie, she wanted to fight Lee-do. But she said that just in time, she was fighting against Lee-do.”
Chaewon showed the principal’s permission letter.
“The principal gave me permission, saying that it’s fun, as kids say these days.”
“Huh.”
She was the general manager who was taken aback at the moment, but she smiled and said that it worked out rather well.
“So what. Now that it’s like this, let’s change the class competition like this. 1St year B class vs. All other classes joined by the Magic Exploration Department head and vice president. Aka, 1st year B class.”
