What's going on?

The abundance of magic, and the more perceptible element of magic in that feeling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info and this body that seems to be more powerful than before, indicating that during the time when I was asleep, something unimaginable happened.

So, what happened? Gerald fell into deep thought, and the events of the past few days became clear in his mind.

The magic is depleted, the body is weak, and what was once conceived is fulfilled ...

Gerald's expression became serious, and he remembered the idea that had been finalized. This idea was a long time ago, and even part of it had been done in his own world. And that idea, both in this world and in that world, can cause an uproar.

What is magic, is it something that supports the movement of the human body, or is it some element that exists between heaven and earth?

There are many different ideas about this in the wizarding world. Some people believe that magic is certain substances owned by the human body itself, and that strengthening these substances can become powerful. Others believe that magic is a gift from the gods, born between heaven and earth.

With the advent of the Black Mage Jerph, both notions appear to be somewhat under-substantiated. So, what exactly is magic? has become a mystery that many magicians want to explore.

However, one thing is recognized. Running out of mana is not life-threatening, but the body can have adverse reactions, such as weakness and coma.

If it is accepted that running out of mana is not life-threatening, then there is also one thing that is recognized. That is, no one can perform magic without magic in their body.

Gerald has never been noncommittal on this. Because, he comes from a world where magic is scarce. And in his world, except for some transcendent species, there is no magic in the human body. It was himself who began to learn magic after he came to this world.

And in his world, all magic is realized through props, like the wooden staff behind him.

So, can someone who also has no magic power do magic? that's what Gerald has always wanted to know, and wants to achieve.

This time, it seems, he seems to have succeeded?

So, how did you succeed? Gerald pondered, trying to emulate the gesture of his last success. The magic power converged at his fingertips, an invisible magic array behind him was slowly turning, and there was a "snap" sound in the air, and it was clear that he had failed.

The reason for the failure is simple, the magic in his body is also surging.

This is a subconscious move, and when outlining the magic array, the magic power will involuntarily swell up to the fingertips.

However, in the morning the magic in his body was empty. So, how exactly did he succeed?

Gerald's expression was full of doubt, and his inner reluctance made him try again.

"Gerald?" a cat-like moan, little Lori Wendy looked at him with sleepy eyes.

"Wendy?"

"Jay・・・・・・ hum!" The little girl was excited when she saw that Gerald was finally back to normal, and then she remembered something again, and pretended to turn her head angrily. Don't go to Gérald.

After a few seconds, Gerald's reassuring voice was not heard. The little girl secretly turned her head, only to find that Gerald was sketching something again. His face suddenly became ugly.

"Smack!" a twig slammed into the back of Gerald's hand, and Wendy looked at him with a slightly aggrieved look.

The little girl was terrified, and Gerald's state frightened her. How can a person keep moving without eating or drinking? What's more, Gerald's body is so weak. In the past three days, Wendy has tried her best to heal the magic and throw it to Gerald as if she didn't need money.

However, Gerald just couldn't wake up.

In the end, the exhausted little Lori finally couldn't hold on and fell into a deep sleep.

And this sleep is not very sweet. She dreamed of the injured Su Mo, the dream of Gerald who traveled far away, and the dream that she hadn't seen the two Ernie Sauce for a long time.

She was scared, as scared as Grantini had gone.

Then, she woke up.

When I woke up, I saw Gerald. At that moment, she was very relieved.

However, I didn't expect Gerald to enter that terrible state. Wendy finally panicked, Gerald's body can't bear it, right?

In a fit of rage, she picked up the "weapon" next to her and smashed it at the boy, hoping to interrupt his magic.

"Wendy?" Gerald looked at the little girl suspiciously, not understanding why she was beating herself.

"Wow~" Facing Gerald's expression, the little girl finally couldn't suppress her grievances and released her nirvana. Tears began to roll down. He threw down the branches, sat on the ground and wept.

Gerald was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and immediately understood the little girl's grievances. He couldn't remember how long it had taken him to become obsessed with magic, but it must have been a short time. And the little girl alone doesn't know how worried and scared she is, even if she has terrible potential, she is just a little girl.

"Wendy. Gerald followed Su Mo's example and ruffled her hairstyle. "I'm sorry to worry you. “

"Woo woo woo ・・・・・・"

"I promise, it won't be like this again, okay?"

"Woo woo woo ・・・・・"

"I ・・・・・・・"

In the following time, Gerald tried his best to coax the little girl. It's a pity that Wendy just doesn't speak and keeps crying. Even a gentle person like Gerald couldn't help but have black lines on his face.

"Hey, little slug. How long are you going to cry?"

The crying stopped abruptly, revealing Wendy's cute eyes between her small fingers.

"Gerald badass. ”

Gerald smiled dumbly, and rubbed her hair helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, I'm wrong, can't I?" Let's go, we still have a lot of things, don't you want to help Su Mo?"

"Hmph. Wendy snorted coldly, but stood up. He tilted his head proudly and didn't look at Gerald.

"Alright. Let's go, I'll send you to the village that Su Mo-chan said. Then I went to help him. ”

"Hmm・・・・・・"

"Don't talk, know you want to go. However, if you go, you will have to make a mess. Small slugs. ”

Ignoring Wendy's angry eyes, Gerald pulled her out.

As he walked, he said, "You're still too weak, you need to practice more dragon slaying magic." Otherwise, you will have to be a little slug in the future. ”

"When I got to the village, I stayed well. When the matter was over, we went to his guild with Su Mo, which was said to be very lively, and they were all like family. You're going to have a lot of fun, right?"

In this way, Gerald led the little girl out in a chattering manner. For the first time, he became so mother-in-law. And the reason, he himself does not know.

Anyway, I just want to talk a little more to this little girl. I hope she can remember a little more, and hopefully, she won't be so cowardly.

The road is calm, and the edge of the forest is faintly in sight.

Gerald's heart became nervous, he had a hunch that something bad would happen soon.

This feeling made his pace quicken.

"Geral?" Wendy looked up confused.

"Wendy. We've got to hurry. Gerald whispered, then bent down and picked up little Lori and ran wildly towards the outside of the forest.

But his heart was turbulent.

How does this feel ・・・・・・ Anima?

But how is that possible?

Gerald's heart grew heavier, and his steps grew faster and faster. Almost like a wind, it rushed out of the forest.

The slightly dilapidated village was in sight, but Gerald braked sharply and stopped.

How so? Gerald looked at the village in front of him. His eyes were full of doubt.

"Nice young man. The old man's voice sounded in his ears, and the figure of the village chief became closer and closer from the depths of the village.

Gerald shuddered, and the alarm in his heart rose to the top.

In his vision, what kind of village is here?

As far as the eye can see, a barren land. It's cold and uninhabited.

"Who are you?"

"Don't be nervous. The figure of the old man gradually emerged, his lowered body was like an ancient tree about to decay, but his eyes were no longer confused when facing Su Mo, but full of wisdom.

"As you can see, the old man is just a spiritual body now. The real body has long since decayed, and there is nothing to be done. ”

Gerald was shocked, he could certainly see that what the old man said was true. It's just that this mere spiritual thought body can virtualize a village, so how powerful the old man himself should be.

"Young man, you should have something to do, right?"

Gerald was silent, then asked, "Can I trust you?"

"Hehe・・・・・・" The old man smiled lowly, as if this question evoked some memories for him, so he looked quite helpless. "If a little girl is a girl, the old man can still protect it. “

Gerald was still silent, only this time, for a longer time.

"Geral?" Wendy murmured, sticking out her little head in confusion.

"Hmm. Gerald came back to his senses and gently placed her on the ground. Put his hand on Wendy's little head and whisper, "Good girl." Wait for us to come back. ”

Wendy blinked, tears quickly filling her eyes. Nodding fiercely: "Mmmm, Wendy will be good." ”

Gerald smiled reluctantly, stood up and bowed to the old man. "Well, excuse me. ”

The old man smiled and waved at him. signaled that he could go about his own business with peace of mind.

The pressure from Anima grew heavier, and Gerald turned his head to look at Wendy deeply. Towards the forest.

Seeing Gerald walk far, far away, the tears in Wendy's eyes fell with a click.

Waved to the back of the departing figure.

"Gerald, be sure to come back and pick me up. ”
