vs 44 The Power of Sweet Wine
"Magic amplifier?" Alicia tilted her head in confusion. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Oh~ the magic amplifier is ......" Kylloa took a breath and was about to explain, only to see Alicia hurriedly put her two hands in front of her and swing it from side to side in the air.
"No, no, no need to explain it to me! I don't understand it anyway. ”
Kyeloa and Daron looked at each other and smiled wordlessly. After that, he bent forward slightly, propped his arms on the table, interlocked his fingers with his hands, looked at Alicia with tender eyes, and said:
"If I'm wrong, I'll explain it to you in a way that even a fool can understand. ”
Alicia pouted in displeasure at Kyrloa treating her like a fool, but she waited with a little curiosity for what he had to say.
"What's the difference between hitting someone with your fist and slashing someone with your sword?" Kelloya opened with a question.
"With your fists...... Tired?"
“...... Can you answer seriously?"
"Okay...... It's hard to kill someone with your fists, but it's easy to kill with a sword?"
"Well, what else?"
"And then there'...... The range of the sword is wider than that of the fist?"
"That's right. Seeing that Alicia had already hit the nail on the head, Kyeloa began to continue explaining, "A magician who uses a magic amplifier can increase the range and power of his spells, which is like giving a long sword to someone who fights with his fists. ”
"Oh~ I see. "But why this knife?"
"Because this knife is of the ice attribute, it is exactly the same as the innate attribute of Merus Lonny. Kylloa explained as she looked at Merufa.
"But, ......Lord Sage," said Merufa, raising a small hand timidly, "this is a knife......
"Well, so what?" asked Kyeloa without thinking, looking very natural.
"Uh...... Because I haven't seen a single mage use a knife as a magic amplifier. Mei Lufa played with her two index fingers and said shyly.
"It's just a matter of perception, because this knife is already very well made, and it's too cumbersome to change its shape, but even so, it won't affect your use, so just take it. Kyeloa said as he placed the Ice Knife on the table and leaned back in his chair with his hands on his chest.
Meleva blinked her beautiful eyes under the large glasses, looked at Kyllloa, then at Daron who was sitting in the same position, and finally at Alicia who was sitting opposite. Everyone present looked at her with an expectant expression, making her face blush all at once.
She reached for the table, and the two wide sleeves of the black robe slid down her delicate skin, revealing the snow-white, thin wrist and the white arm above the wrist.
Mei Lufa grabbed the snow-white ice knife in both hands and held it to her chest, feeling the ice attribute Mana that filled her fingers, and couldn't help but feel that Kyllloa's judgment was very accurate.
"Merva, in general, what do magicians use as magic amplifiers?" asked Alicia suddenly curiously.
"This ...... It varies from person to person. Do you remember the Dr. Dr. Dleiman who summoned the Corpse King earlier?"
"Oh~ that uncle who is a little bald?"
"Well, doesn't he have a staff, that's his magic amplifier. ”
After recalling it, Alicia vaguely remembered the black wooden staff with a piece of blood jade on top in her mind, after all, Dryman had used this staff to make her suffer a little, so she still had some impressions.
"Some magicians like to use magic staffs, some like crystal balls, and some like magic books. Meleva explained.
Alicia nodded, glanced at Kyeloa and asked:
"Kyeloa, why don't you use that magic amplifier?"
Because Kylloa has always been empty-handed, and he is not like the rumored archmage who will bring a staff made of a thousand-year-old tree or something.
"When I'm old, maybe I'll find a staff to use, after all, I can still use it as a crutch when I'm tired. Kylloa said jokingly.
"Alicia, the Sage doesn't need a magic amplifier. A slight look of pride appeared on Merva's face as she said this, as if she would show this expression every time she spoke of her teacher, "For someone like the Sage-sama who can manipulate Manna at will, the magic amplifier is superfluous. ”
Looking at the proud Melusa, Alicia thought to herself: when talking about herself, Meluva will show the stunt of turning red for a second, but when it comes to Kyllloa, she will become so confident. It seems that her admiration for Kylloa is really not a little bit, of course, maybe it is more than just admiration.
"The magic amplifier is also called a medium, or a catalyst. In addition to the user's mana amplification, it also has some auxiliary functions. With a rare expression of seriousness, Merufa explained, "Just like the Sage Lady taught you before, the steps of using magic are divided into four processes: perceiving Mana, gathering, reorganizing, and releasing it. The Magic Amplifier is able to construct channels through these processes, making these four processes easier to complete. ”
After listening to these explanations, Alicia walked up to Meleva with her head bowed, and slapped her palm on the latter's shoulder with a solemn expression.
"Huh, hey?"
"Melufa, you are none other than Kelloya's disciple, come on!"
Alicia's implication is that Melufa's ability to utter such a large number of incomprehensible things in one breath is already becoming more and more like Kyllloa, and it may be quite difficult to do this by herself.
Because Alicia deliberately created this solemn atmosphere, Darlon, who was still drinking beer, snorted and laughed, Meleva blinked her eyes as if she couldn't understand the situation, and Kyeloa deliberately coughed twice in order to resolve her embarrassment and said:
"So that knife is a good fit for you, Meruva Lonnie. Holding a treasure with its own innate attributes, through the effect of reverse drainage, it must also be very helpful for the improvement of your own magic power. ”
"Then thank you, teacher. Merus politely stood up and bowed, making Daron laugh again.
"Now that you've got a weapon of sincerity, why don't you name them. Alicia crossed her hands on her hips and suddenly proposed.
"Again?" said Kylloa, who immediately grimaced. When he was asked to name his horse, he resisted.
"You don't need to take it this time, it's Meruva and Daron who will take it. Alicia said, pointing to the two men she had mentioned.
"I think it's nice to call it the 'Blood Drinking Sword'. Daron said with his hands stretched to the side.
"No, the name is cheesy and impersonal, and the point is that it's too sinister, give me serious thoughts, it's a princess order!"
Daron scratched the back of his head, then crossed his arms and thought seriously for a while, and said:
"Then call it a lone wolf. ”
"Lone wolf?"
"Well, this is a nickname I used to have when I was still begging for a living in the mercenary group, and now that I have abandoned it, I might as well use it for my own weapons. ”
"Lone wolf...... Well, yes, Princess Ben is gracious. What about you, Melufa?"
Mei Lufa looked at the snow-white knife in her hand, felt its temperature like ice, thought for a while and said:
"Remnant Snow...... How?"
"Oh~~ It seems that you are all quite tasteful, not bad~" Alicia nodded with a satisfied smile.
Faced with this behavior, Kyeloa couldn't help but sigh lightly, and then called the proprietress afterward:
"Hostess, give me a drink from last sweet bar. ”
"Okay~" The proprietress was about to leave soon after hearing this.
"Wait a minute!" Alicia's shout suddenly stopped her, and everyone looked at the blonde girl suspiciously.
I saw Alicia's eyes narrowed slightly, and after staring at Kyeloa for a while, she turned to the proprietress and said:
"Boss, that sweet wine, bring me a copy too!"
"Nonsense. Kylloa immediately objected, "It's already conniving to let you drink beer, you're not an adult, and you don't drink sweet wine." ”
"Woo~Uncle Kyllloa, just let me take a sip, okay~" Alicia learned from Melevia's tone and made Daron shiver coldly.
"Kyle, just let him take a sip, or she'll be pestering you all night. Daron raised his glass to Kylloa with a nonchalant expression.
"Well done Darlon, I love you to death!" Alicia looked elated as Daron spoke for herself.
Meleva on the side looked at the happy Alicia and the wry-smiling Daron with a little envy in her eyes, and then glanced at Kyloa, who was struggling with the profound question of "whether to let Alicia drink", and thought to herself, why can't she say such things loudly and without any scruples like Alicia? However, perhaps it is because Alicia does not have the same affection for Daron as Meluva does for Kyllloa, so she can say this without scruples.
Not noticing the small thought in Melefa's heart, Kyeloa decided to compromise after thinking for a while, and nodded helplessly at the proprietress .
Seeing Kyllloa's attitude of letting go, Alicia applauded happily, and then looked up at the proprietress as if she was amazing.
The proprietress observed the blonde girl who didn't seem to know the smell of alcohol for a while, and left with a smile and a smile.
Then, after talking about some inconsequential topics, they suddenly discussed the whisper, and Alicia said excitedly:
"Yes, I wanted to invite her to be my companion, but as soon as the game was over, she was gone. ”
“...... Why do you want to close everyone? Daron said with a dark face.
"It's not for everyone, it's only for those who are particularly powerful or interesting. ”
Hearing Alicia say this, Meleva thought for a moment that she did not meet either the first or the second, and suddenly felt an inferiority complex, and silently lowered her head.
Alicia noticed her small movements, and said with a big grin:
"Don't be sad all the time, Mei Lufa, you are an important part of our team. ”
Hearing Alicia say this, Melua raised her head in surprise, and her eyes widened and said:
"Heavy, heavy or?!"
"That's right!" Alicia smiled, her eyes narrowed into a line, "You're the indispensable mascot of our team!"
Quack!
In Daron's eyes, poor Meluva seemed to be in two anomalies at once, freezing and petrifying at the same time, and her open mouth and her expression froze there.
"But that girl's martial arts are really amazing, and she is also among the top powerhouses among the people I have seen. After an awkward silence for a few seconds, Kyeloa picked up the conversation and returned to the whisper.
"Hey, I've taken out all the moves at the bottom of the box. Daron said helplessly. He didn't expect that he would use all his housekeeping skills in this arena.
"You're using housekeeping skills, but I've heard that the girl uses moves that she learned from someone else. Kyeloa said and looked behind her, wondering why the sweet wine she had ordered hadn't come yet.
"That's right!" Darlon's expression suddenly became a little excited, and he slapped his hands on the table and said, "This is also the most terrifying part of that whisper, she used other people's moves from beginning to end, and her own moves have not even revealed a single move. ”
"Sure enough, people can't look good, only less than 20 years old, there is such a martial art. ”
Daron and Kyloa suddenly fell into a silent worship of the whisper, and in front of them, Alicia snapped her fingers to summon them back to reality and said:
"Gentlemen, let the past go for a moment. Now that we're done with Tirting, it's time to get out of here, so let's start talking about the future. ”
"What do you say it's done...... It could have been done quickly, but it was all because you asked me to sign up for a messy competition, which is why it dragged on here for so long. So said the innocent victim, Darlon.
"This princess has apologized and deeply reflected on this incident. ”
"That doesn't count, starting tomorrow, I'll reflect on it in my hellish sword training. Daron said with the grim expression of a demon instructor, causing Alicia to shudder.
"Alicia, I will also give you the magic lessons that you have missed or escaped in the past few days, and I will also give you tuition from tomorrow, please be prepared. Kylloa said as if to join in the fun.
Alicia looked at the two devil teachers and shouted as if she was waiting for snow:
"I hope I never come tomorrow!"
Meleva looked at Alicia and snickered happily.
At this time, the proprietress came over with the sweet wine ordered by Kyllloa, and looked at Alicia who seemed to be crazy and stunned, but she didn't ask anything more than she upheld the principle of customer first, put down the sweet wine and walked away.
As soon as the mulled wine was served, Alicia snatched the glass with lightning speed, and took it under her nose to smell it.
"Wow! what a fragrant smell~"
Seeing her reaction, Mei Lufa also leaned over to smell it curiously, and made almost the same reaction.
Kyeloa watched the two of them silently, noticing the faded brown leather armor, the polished boots, and the wrinkled red shirt on Alicia's body, and made a suggestion: "Before I leave here, I think I should help you buy a set of equipment, the armor you wear has been used for a long time, right?"
Daron also looked at the armor on his body, the armor that was already somewhat worn out had become full of holes after the fierce battle in the arena, and it was indeed time for a new set.
"Okay, let's go shopping tomorrow!" Alicia cheered, and actually drained the glass of sweet wine in one go.
"Wow! it's delicious~"
“...... Are you alright, Alicia?" asked Kyloa, her eyes wide open in panic and worry.
"No, hiccup! It's fine! This wine is very fragrant, not rushing at all!" Alicia actually hiccuped.
"It's true that sweet wine is not brewed, but it can't be drunk like this. Kyeloa frowned and said, "The strength of the dessert wine is relatively backward, and you may not feel it when you drink it, but after drinking it, the wine will rise quickly, so you usually have to taste it slowly." ”
"Hiccup, Kyeloa, you deserve to be a gentleman, what do you say slowly, hehe!"
After saying this, Alicia fell headlong on the table and snored.
"Whew~~~Huh!Huh~~~Huh!"
