#33. Do you want to learn magic?

It is normal for Heine to have the idea of going to the island to hunt for treasure, although the sea area where the sirens are located has not been actively "patronized" for a long time, but there must still be something that has been backlogged before.

And you may not be able to get around it if you want to, just like Lena fried the octopus because of her greedy mouth, and ended up catching the whale, and finally being sent by the tsunami it created.

The sirens who belong to the people of the sea are always cared for by their "mothers" at certain intervals.

It's just that there are unlucky guys who will be sent over because of the "shipwreck".

Therefore, in any case, in the archipelago or at the bottom of the sea, there will definitely be treasures and artifacts left here by predecessors, waiting for those who are destined to die to discover them.

After so many years as a robber killer, Lena naturally understood what Heine said, so after thinking for a while, she refused.

"You're going to go yourself."

"Oh, why, isn't Lena also interested in treasure?"

Lena's unsparing refusal made Heine wilt suddenly.

However, she did not give up easily, because she firmly believed that Lina, as a treasure seeker, would definitely not let go of any opportunity to make a fortune.

If they catch up with Lina before, the two of them are estimated to have flown to one of the islands by now.

Right now?

All Lena wanted to say was two words.

"Not interested."

Originally, she wanted to say "I'm lazy", but considering the image problem, she changed the word.

"Huh? Lena, you're not ......," Lena's resoluteness made Heine raise an eyebrow in surprise.

Glancing at Heine, who had become a curious baby, Lena sighed softly.

"It's not like the legend, isn't it?"

Heine nodded.

"Then it doesn't match, I'm going back to rest."

With that, Lena turned and walked away, completely ignoring the full expectation, but what Heine was now looking at in response to hear such a response.

- It's about the same as eating three catties of coptis in one go, and half a catty of arsenic is mixed with it.

To use a more modern description: the pants are all off, and Lena runs away.

Petrified was stunned for a long time, until she saw that she had forgotten to bring back Lena's staff that had been in her hand for many years, and she thought that she had finally found another opportunity to get close to her.

He took the staff he used to shut up from the sailors' pile, and started with a wooden stick, even if he wasn't a magician, Heine noticed the difference in this staff.

She seemed to feel that with it, she could pretend to be an entry-level magician!

In accord with this thought, Heine went to the side of the ship and raised his staff.

Calm your mind, carefully recall the spell that Lena once used, and then repeat it silently in her mind a few times.

Feeling almost familiar, he opened his eyes and sang loudly.

"Light! Gather in me and bloom! ”

Heine recited the incantation, but nothing happened.

"O light, gather in me! Bloom! ”

Heine recited the incantation, and still nothing happened.

Heine began to repeat the incantation.

When Ballard reached the deck the next morning, Heine was still chanting the incantation of "Cracked Light". And Captain Fisher, who was on night duty, maintained the appearance of being shocked to wanting to laugh, then from wanting to laugh to numbness, and finally turning into a distressed and mentally retarded appearance.

Seeing that Ballard was coming to change shifts, Mr. Captain hurriedly ran over.

"Master, you better persuade that young lady, it's been a night, and it hasn't stopped, I can't even doze off if I want to."

Ballard believes that the last half of the sentence is the real reason for Fisher's heartache.

Motioning for him to rest, Ballard stretched his unfinished waist as he swayed to Heine's side.

"You ......"

"Light...... Don't bother me, didn't see me ...... Ay? Good morning, Mr. Ballard. ”

Judging from this reaction, it is clear that Captain Fisher had persuaded her a lot last night.

Finally stopping the tossing and turning for a moment, Heine blinked her bloodshot eyes.

When he spoke again, his words were filled with anguish and self-deprecation that he was too dull and untalented.

"Hey...... I just felt like there was some blessing on this staff, and on a whim I wanted to see if I could save my poor talent......"

"Do you want to learn magic?"

Ignoring her explanations, Ballard hit the nail on the head.

Leaning on the handrail of the ship's side, he turned his head to look at the horizon in the distance.

"Did someone tell you that a magician should look at bloodline and talent, and what affinity or something like that?"

Heine nodded.

Seeing Heine's confirmation, Ballard smiled and spread his palms.

"From now on you can take what they say as a fart - rejoice, rejoice, O fire spirit, and give you the light of the present world in the name of Salamanda."

As the chanting of the incantation ended, a faint flame lit up in the palm of his hand.

The flame seemed to be very weak and could not help the wind, but it slowly grew under the morning sea breeze, and finally became a very active "little guy".

The fire elf danced happily in Ballard's palm, as if celebrating its own birth.

Pushing the fire elf in front of Heine's eyes, Ballard chuckled.

"I used to be defined as 'the one who is insulated from magic' by the magicians of the Tower, but you see that I don't use spells very easily now."

The cute appearance of the little guy who greeted him hit Heine's cuteness.

Just as he wanted to take a closer look, Ballard threw the little guy into the sea with a backhand.

"Huh!?"

Lying on the side of the ship, staring at the wisps of green smoke rising from the sea, the corners of Heine's mouth trembled as if his muscles spasmed.

Ignoring Heine's reaction, Ballard pointed to Lena, who had come out of the cabin and was stretching.

"If you want to learn, why don't you ask the magical Miss Lina?"

"Don't teach, don't think about it, it's impossible."

Even if she didn't know the whole story of the conversation between the two, Lena could guess what he was talking about just by throwing the fire element at Ballard's hand.

"It's annoying enough to teach you such an idiot, teach her? You might as well stab me to death. ”

"How can I be so stupid!"

Naturally, Lena's unceremonious refusal drew Heine's displeasure, but Lena must have her reasons for saying that.

Like what......

"You're not stupid? I recited the mantra for a night, but I didn't find that the mantra was wrong, and you told me that you weren't stupid? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lena shook her head sharply.

"I'm sorry, you're not stupid, you're worrying about your IQ."

Ballard knew very well that after the relationship became a little closer, Lena's unforgiving mouth was a thief, otherwise the two would not quarrel because of her mouth at every turn.

But he knows that it doesn't mean that Heine also understands Lena's character of a knife-mouthed tofu heart.

Fortunately, Lena showed the growth she had during the days of separation in the next second.
