How to say… … .
It was a feeling that was difficult to express in words.
The structure of this complicated magic circle was read naturally as if reading Hangeul, and the complex flow of magic caught my eye.
“Wow.”
Elasticity leaking out.
It was hard to believe that all the knowledge completed over eons of time was contained in that little spell.
Once again, I wondered if the composition of the magic circle was this complicated, and I was in awe.
Shiana gave me a moment’s time and then moved a short distance.
Pong!
Pong!
I went to the two spaces in succession and came back.
Afterwards, she looked at my reaction.
“How are you, Aren? Could it have helped?”
Siana leans slightly and looks up at me.
“Wait a minute, Siana.”
I was trying to quickly pick up and contain the fragments of wisdom that came in like a tide.
It was difficult to organize my thoughts. It feels like debris floating in space.
Looking at the magic circle again, it seemed like it would be a little tidy.
“Aren? it’s okay?”
“yes. are you okay. by the way.”
I looked at Siana for a while and said.
“Magic circle, can you show me one more time?”
I want to check one more time.
“yes! However much!”
Without hesitation, Siana cast her magic.
A little closer this time.
As the distance between me and Shiana got closer, the magic circle looked bigger and clearer.
read
It’s hard to explain, but I’m well aware that the magic circle is a structure that moves objects to other places.
I’m sure I understand it with my head, but is it because I lack basic knowledge of magic? I can’t even think of words to describe this.
“Aren, do you think you know something?”
At that time, Shiana grabbed the end of my sleeve and asked. He seemed worried because I was so stunned.
“Hey. It feels like reading a complicated magic circle as easily as letters, why are you doing this?”
“What?”
Cyana asked with rabbit eyes.
“really? Seriously, do you understand the spell? Did you just watch?”
“… … Feel like it’s just typing into your head? It’s hard to explain.”
I crossed my arms and inspected Cyana’s magic circle.
What can I explain?
Even thinking about it, I can’t think of anything.
Judging from the information that came into my head, what Shiana said made sense.
There are no structural gaps at all.
As she said, in order to apply my theory, I had to design a new technique from scratch.
What I was trying to do was closer to disassembling the formula and then reassembling it with my own spells.
However, the structure of leap magic is already perfect, so it only reduces its efficiency.
Even after listening to my clumsy explanation, Shiana understood all of this.
“Can you see the flow of mana?”
When talking about magic, a different side of the intelligent Siana came out.
Siana was very serious.
“yes.”
Siana’s eyebrows and the corners of her mouth twitched… … .
“Wow! That’s great, Aren.”
will smile brightly
“yes?”
“That’s what I said! That’s it! very thin… … A person who understands the ceremony just by looking at it! Aren must be that kind of person! That’s awesome!”
“is it… … ?”
bewildered
Shiana nodded like a vibrating bell.
“There’s nothing Aren can’t do! Hey Aren! Can’t we move to Aren’s magic realm? huh? yes?”
As if it were her own business, Shiana started running around excitedly.
I laughed awkwardly once and fell into deep thought.
First of all, I found out that my theory was nonsense.
There is no room for black magic to intervene in the completed magic structure.
First of all, it is said to be inefficient.
Just use leap magic. There is a saying that the end of tuning is innocence.
Let go of clumsy stubbornness.
Then once… … .
Recalling the magic formula I just saw, I began to wield mana.
“Whoa, whoa! Aren, did you just make a spell right away? Just take a look!?”
“I’m just copying Shiana.”
“Huh.”
Contrary to my calm reaction, Siana looked surprised. She seemed to have decided to watch my magic for now, so she became quiet.
A magic circle like Siana’s appeared beneath my feet.
Based on my memories, I recreated the magic circle, albeit clumsily. Clearly, this structure seemed capable of spatial movement.
However, he soon ran into a major obstacle.
“Siana. Let me ask you something.”
“Yes! What?”
“What should I do after this?”
“yes?”
You can understand the composition of the magic circle and follow it. But I can’t leap.
“coordinate… … How do you calculate it?”
This is because it has no idea how to calculate spatial coordinates.
Siana just said that, but what the hell is she doing?
“Um… … .”
Cyana looked back and forth between my magic circle and me, contemplating. Then he moved a little away from me and settled down in a suitable place.
“Yes, Aren.”
“yes.”
“Can you describe the location of where I stand in magic terms?”
I stared at Siana for a moment.
… … no, i can’t
How do you explain that location? I had never studied magic in the first place.
The word that immediately comes to mind is 10 steps to the left from the bench. at this level.
I’m worried about whether I should take magic basics.
“No, I don’t feel it.”
I answered honestly.
“I see.”
Siana came to me again. Then, with that small mouth, he eagerly began to explain something to me.
“Hey, Aren is like this!”
“He’s a genius who can grasp the structure at a glance just by looking at the formula! You don’t understand the concept of magic at all!”
“So, ummm. You don’t know the magic principle, do you? I know, but I don’t know how to use it… … ?”
“Huh. I can’t even explain… … .”
Siana’s words gradually got twisted and she lost her confidence.
Well, I roughly understood.
If you kick a soccer ball, you can kick it into the corner, but when asked how to do it, you’re the type to say ‘I just kicked it and it went in?’
It’s funny to explain this with my own mouth, but I had to accept it when Cyana said that.
Shiana put her finger to her mouth for a moment and groaned.
“… … sorry.”
Then all he said was ‘sorry’.
“I-I can’t explain either? Because it just happens… … Ahaha.”
Siana smiles shyly.
Yes, Sianna has known since birth. To her, calculating coordinates and calculating them in her head was a ‘just’ thing.
Something you don’t even need to be aware of.
As natural as breathing.
“That, just! The location of the space over there is drawn in my head! How not to explain this… … ?”
crying.
Shiana grabbed her head in embarrassment. I calmed her down because she seemed to be going mental.
“Calm down Siana, calm down. it’s okay.”
“Yes… … .”
“But since I understand the structure, I can study the rest.”
“No, that’s right! That alone is really great! There are many cases where others don’t understand the magic formula properly no matter how many years! But Aren didn’t know as soon as he saw him! It’s awesome!”
Shiana calmed down at my words and nodded.
Still, hesitating, he wants to tell me something more, but it doesn’t seem to work as well as he wants.
“Huh. But I’d like to explain the coordinates… … .”
While Shiana was depressed, I thought again.
Can understand structure, but cannot calculate coordinates.
Maybe it looks half-baked, but I wasn’t worried.
Because there was no need to mentally calculate the coordinates.
I have an idea.
It’s just using shadows.
I had been thinking about it, but I ended up writing this as well.
I took out one of Viktor’s favorite items, ‘The Clanberry Bell’, from my pocket.
Among his treasured possessions, he reacted most violently to my magical power, but it is no longer useful as an experiment tool. Because black magic is impossible.
It’s no different than just experimenting with apples.
“yes? Aren? what are you doing? What is that?”
“Practice. It’s just an experiment tool.”
Cyana approaches with curiosity. I gently placed the Clanberry Bell at her feet. Cyana took a step back.
Reached out. The thread of magical power began to weave the leap magic formula.
Leap magic spell appears under the small bell.
It feels like the ritual is much more organized than the first one.
I then summoned a shadow.
The shadow that came up slowly hovered over my shoulder, waiting for my command.
Shiana still had her eyes on the magic circle. She is oblivious to the shadow’s presence.
If that’s the case, you can also use leap magic that uses shadows as coordinates without any problems.
sent a shadow This is the spot where Siana stood before.
A magic circle appeared even in the shadows. There was no need to calculate the coordinates separately, just create a magic circle where the shadow holding my magic is.
‘Intuitive is best.’
In addition, if you make a mistake in calculating the coordinates of the leap, you will be in trouble, but if you use the shadow, there is no way to mistake the destination.
In a way, it’s a much safer method. Although the pace is a bit slow.
Originally, all of these processes had to take place in less than a second. Once again, Ciana, who casually uses leap magic, looks amazing.
I focused my mind.
Ding- ding- ding ding-
As the magic wriggled, the bell also sounded.
It’s proof that there is a change.
appearance becomes increasingly distorted. As if space is shrinking.
and,
–!
has disappeared. Shiana and I turned our heads at the same time.
Ding!
The sound of paper falling to the floor. That was exactly where I had sent my shadow.
“Aren, Aren! Did you succeed?”
“Became… … the poor?”
I couldn’t believe it even when I saw it.
“Yes! done!”
“This is it… … .”
Cyana hurried over and picked up the bell.
“I’m fine! complete, complete! It was the perfect leap magic!”
Sianna was delighted with her work.
“Arren, is this really your first time?! Didn’t you practice behind my back?”
I was happy too. If it’s enough to say that Shiana is perfect, then it really is.
jump magic.
I, who don’t even know the basics of magic, succeeded in high-level magic.
It would be frightening to ordinary magic cadets.
Because it’s Siana, she’s so calmly happy.
I’m bewildered
More than anything else, I was so happy that I no longer had to walk around.
I have to secretly build a portal near the dormitory and gym.
“It’s the first time.”
“crying… … That’s great.”
I don’t know what to do with Siana’s violent reaction.
First of all, I confirmed that the shadow coordinates worked. My future goal is to use the shadows more to complete the dimension leap magic.
“If you practice more, you will do great!”
“right?”
“Yes. But yes, Aren. What did you do when you said you couldn’t calculate coordinates?”
Siana looked up at me with deer-like eyes. It’s a really innocent question, but for some reason, a chill runs down my spine.
Well, it’s okay to let Shiana see her shadow.
“After thinking about it some more, it just popped into my head.”
While I was praised, I took another drink.
Siana was clearly an angel. Because he blew me a double stick without questioning anything.
* * *
After Siana’s private tutoring, we walked side by side at night.
“Hee hee hee~”
Shiana jumped ahead of me, wondering what was so exciting about it.
There was no fairy in Siana’s appearance bathed in moonlight.
If you walk like that, you will come to a fork in the road before you know it. Everyone is on their way to their dorms.
The time is 10:00 at night.
It was a well-spent day.
I slowed down and measured the timing to say hello.
At that time, Shiana turned around first.
As if playing a joke, with a smile.
“Yes, Areen.”
In the brief moment when she said that from afar, Siana showed various emotions.
Thanks for joining us today.
I’m glad it helped.
Let’s get along well in the future.
etc.
Well, even if you don’t say it, you can feel it from your expression… … However, her behavior was unexpected.
“?”
In the blink of an eye, it was a ‘leap’ in front of me.
It wasn’t usually close. It was so far that she could even feel the sound of her shallow breathing.
In a critical moment, her body came over to me and my cheek touched.
After a while, an angelic voice touches my eardrums.
“thank you.”
“… … .”
Does he even know how much his actions can make people nervous?
Hee hee.
Shiana just laughed like a prankster and took a step back.
“Oh, I wanted to say it so that no one could hear.”
“… … I see.”
Surprised by Shiana’s surprise attack, I patted the back of my neck.
Indeed, Siana smiles innocently, like a child. Like someone who really knows nothing.
I can’t get a feel for it at all.
“Bye-bye~”
Shiana, who had grown distant before she knew it, waved at me from afar.
This time as well, he was shaking until he received an answer from me.
I can’t help but slightly raise my hand.
It feels like we have our own way of greeting.
It’s a strangely exhausting day.
Still, the harvest was sufficient.
First of all, I paid off some of my debt to Siana. It feels like there are still thorns stuck in my conscience.
I think I got closer to Siana.
It was good to do this, but it didn’t end here.
Leap magic also succeeded.
Of course, it is still only the basics among the basics.
After studying magic to lay the foundation, let’s find a way to use the shadow more.
If you learn the leap magic well, there will be many places to use it.
Click.
I entered the dormitory and opened the door.
its sillent.
As expected, my roommate seems to be out drinking late into the night today.
They say they’re going on an outside mission the day after tomorrow, so they’ll want to play hard.
“Let’s take a quick shower and go to sleep.”
It was the moment when I turned on the light, thinking about soaking myself in warm water.
“!”
My dear, I almost screamed.
“Sir, what are you doing in the dark? Aren’t people surprised?”
Viktor was sitting on the bed like a ‘The Thinker’ statue.
What were you doing when you weren’t drinking?
After a moment of doubt, his head turned to me.
“Aren.”
“Yes?”
“Do we have a lot to talk about?”
… … what are you talking about all of a sudden

Kong-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak-dak.
My heart beats too fast.
“Bye-bye~”
Siana pretended to be as calm as possible and waved her hand violently.
I wanted to run away right away, but I still felt like I had to say hello.
When Aren turned around, Cyana collapsed onto the floor.
“I-what the hell did I do… … haha.”
It’s nothing else, I made a mistake with the leap magic.
Siana was excited alone and was far away.
Then the dormitory crossroads came out, and I was about to say hello.
I was just going to stand in front of Aren, but I was so nervous that I jumped right in front of my nose.
To the distance where Aren’s breath can reach!
‘Heheuk!’
There, he panicked, and after barely stopping his fall forward with magic, Aren’s cheek had already touched him.
‘what should we do! what should we do!’
At the moment of desperation, Siana activated her genius brain to get out of this situation.
The answer she found was to act as if it was intended from the beginning.
I don’t know what the next day is.
After calming his expression and heart for a while with magic, he spoke softly.
Thank you.
Embarrassed, I laughed out loud.
I didn’t want to hear that I was upset.
Even when she thought about it, Shiana was surprised. Because I was too calm to commit words and actions that I had never said before.
I couldn’t even remember what he said after that. The only thing I could do was finish the gibberish greetings and turn around.
‘Did Aren say good night… … ?’
As if a kettle had been placed on top of Shiana’s head, steam began to bloom.
After sitting down for five minutes, Siana got up again and went back to the dormitory.
You don’t even know that your roommate is waiting for you with a table set for drinks.

Despite the deep dawn, the inspection team led by Zeros did not neglect their guard duty.
They constantly roamed the vast grounds of the academy in pairs. He had his eyes lit up enough to block even the approach of monsters and wild animals.
At first, he was overbearing, but gradually the cadets saw him and began to trust him.
It was a natural change that the inspectors who stood by my side were more reassuring than the invisible orb’s surveillance.
It was around the time that the public opinion of the cadets was gradually leaning towards Zeros.
Several high-ranking members of the academy, including Pompey, were summoned to the royal chambers to face an unfinished investigation and censure. this is the second time.
When the principal is away, Zeros Tarbella kicks in.
Somewhere north of the academy.
Entering the forest garden behind the cadets’ dorms, Zeros was eagerly searching for something.
‘This must be the right place.’
Standing where he could only see bushes, Zeros looked at the map again.
On this map, where the secret secrets of the academy are marked, it is said that what Zeros is looking for must be right here.
Zeroth, albeit clumsily, recites a secret incantation marked on the map. It is difficult to pronounce because it is an old character.
“Hey, open it. This is the hero’s room. Here comes the monk.”
No response.
Once more.
This time, the pronunciation is also straightened out, and the pronunciation is clear.
“Be open. This is the hero’s room. Here comes the monk.”
–!
flash
In an instant, Zeros saw an unknown light cutting through the bushes.
There is a gap. Zero put his hand in it.
“… … !”
the hand is gone
As if being sucked into another space, the space they touched was crumpled.
The corner of Zeroth’s mouth draws an evil arc. He entered the space without hesitation.
