Chapter 4 The Meaning of Gandalfr
After about a week of living as a maid for Louise, Sakura's body was able to use more chakra, and she began to use timed medical ninjutsu to recuperate her body. Most of the basic information in this world has been figured out, that is, the text barrier has not been solved, and learning a foreign language well is not something that can be completed in a week.
"Well, at this rate, the recovery rate should increase exponentially. In this way, in another three days, it should be possible to restore the combat effectiveness of the middle ninja. Sakura thought with some excitement. At the same time, Sakura also found that the world's attainment in perception is extremely low, and at least TRIANGLE level or above can slightly perceive magic fluctuations, so it is better for her to pretend to be a magician.
At this time, it was the time when there were no classes and no chores, and Louise seemed to have something to do. Xiaoxian was in the dormitory room, so she went to the courtyard to find a random place to sit down and took out the book that Jiraiya gave her. Although this should be a secret book, but Sakura didn't look cautious, first of all, she's just a "maid", and it shouldn't be noticed by most people, even if someone stops to check it, it's pointless, because the text in this world is different, presumably no one should understand this book except for herself and the author.
However, there are often exceptions to some things. There was a short-haired maid with short black hair who was passing by and just accidentally glanced at it, and she became interested in the book.
"Excuse me, Miss Misaka...... What is this book?" asked the short-haired maid in black. Because the incident of Louise summoning a magic messenger is still very famous, and Sakura, as a maid, her terrible work efficiency (even if Sakura doesn't use chakra and superpowers, her physical ability is far above that of ordinary people) has also spread among the maids, so she knows Sakura.
"Huh, do you care?" Sakura asked.
"Well, I recognize the words in this book......"
"Smack!" Sakura closed the book, "Do you recognize this kind of writing?Where did you come from?Who are you?"
"Eh......" The short-haired maid in black noticed that she seemed to have struck a thunderbolt, "No, no, I don't recognize it, but it is very similar to the text on my great-grandfather's tombstone, but my great-grandfather did not pass it down...... By the way, I'm Shesta, please advise. ”
"yes, when you're going home, can you take me to see it?" Sakura asked. "That's a clue.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with that. But," said Shesta, who was a little curious about the person who could read Japanese, "lately...... I don't think I'm going home, my home is in the village of Talb, far from here. ”
"yes, it's okay, I'm not in a hurry. "If you want to do anything, you have to wait until your body recovers, and even if you go back to this state, you will die, and you can just spend it "leisurely" like in the afterlife.
Thinking so, after sending Shesta away, Sakura plans to try her hand-
Traceon ————
He casually projected a kunai in his hand and played with it, but it felt a little different from before: "Did I play with shinobi so easily before?" Sakura thought to herself, a little puzzled. ”
Looking at it again, the word "Gandalfr" on the back of his hand engraved last time was glowing: "Could it be the effect of this incantation?"

Principal's Office –
The door was gently pushed open. It was Gruberu who entered: "Orud Osman—"
"What's the matter?" said the gray-bearded dean, Osman.
"No, it's terrible, look at this. Gruberlu handed the book he had consulted to Osman.
"Isn't this the 'Demon of the Ancestor BRIMIR'? If you have that kind of time, wouldn't it be better to think about how to collect the tuition? By the way, what do you call it?"
"Gruberu. Have you forgotten?" said Gruberu.
"Yes, yes. That's the name. You spoke before I did. By the way, what's wrong with Gruberu's book?"
"Please take a look at this as well. Gruberu showed the pattern of the sigil that appeared on Sakura's hand to Osman.
The moment he saw it, Osman's face changed, his eyes flashed, and he showed a serious expression.
Gruberu continued, "Miss Vallière summoned the legendary demon Gandalfr, please hurry up and report to the royal family, if you don't get their instructions-"
"It's impossible. Osman nodded heavily, and his white beard fluttered with it.
"Why? It's a discovery of a century. Gandalfr reawakened in the modern era!"
"Mr. Gruberu, Gandalfr is not just an ordinary demon. ”
"AS YOU SAID, IT IS A DEMON USED BY OUR ANCESTOR BRIMIR, AND ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO RECORD OF ITS APPEARANCE, I HAVE HEARD THAT IT WAS CHARTERED TO PROTECT THE TIME OF ITS MASTER'S INCANTATION. ”
"YES, OUR ANCESTOR BRIMIR'S MANTRA WAS CHANTED FOR A LONG TIME AND VERY STRONGLY. I'm sure you've heard that during the time of the incantation, the nobles didn't have any power, and in order to protect themselves during this time, there was the Gandalfr, the demon used by the ancestors, which had the power to destroy an army of a thousand people, and the strongest nobles couldn't defeat it, etc. Gruberu said excitedly, which is also the reason why Sakura gave her some magic materials when he asked him, he was doing research and observation.
"Mr. Gruberu—"
"Yes!"
"Do you think Louise is a good magician?"
"No, no, she's not talented from any point of view. Instead, her magic is more like a good magician. ”
"Well, it's a mystery. I can't find any reason why an incompetent magician has turned a good magician into a Gandalfr. In short, we are the ones who cannot hand her and her master over to the royal family. If they were handed over to the royal family, it could lead to a war. In the royal family, there are too many boring people. Osman said solemnly.
"Oh, Headmaster, you're really thinking too far. ”
"I'm on top of this, and you can't tell a second person about it. What the hell is she like?" Mr. Osman stood in front of the window with his cane, and let his mind go back in time.
"According to the records, Gandalfr is something that can use any weapon against the enemy. But ......" Speaking of which, Gruberu was a little hesitant.
"That's it, she's already good, and using weapons is dispensable for her, anyway, Louise just accidentally summoned a magician with great talent but a ruined family, understand?" Osman said quietly.
"Well, I see. (To be continued)
