Chapter 7: Growth and Parting

(Thanks to lovlife for your tips and support)

Although the magical knowledge of the previous life has been fully awakened, Lyle did not end his long rocket growth period until he completed his first year of secondary school.

The reason for this is that the closed-loop relationship between "the soul determines the type of personality, the personality determines the strength of willpower, and the degree of willpower determines the degree of stimulation of the soul", and what makes this closed-loop flow can be said to be time, life experience and personal deep thinking. Rao is Lyle's talent, and he can't exert 100% of his strength in the infancy and toddler period when he accidentally falls to the ground and immediately cries, at most he can burst out a small range of low-power magic shockwaves when he is extremely hurt and angry, blowing away the debris around him.

Even if he didn't increase his talent, the power of the goddess gained in each reincarnation still played a huge role, and his ability performance was increased in terms of mana cap, mana recovery speed, magic attack power, and soul resistance, and at this point in time, he was able to compete with most elves.

Later, he continued to practice for two years, mastering the introductory spells of the heirloom series, mastering the qualitative transformation technique based on the abilities of the twelve divine generals, simplifying and degrading the ancient yin-yang techniques used by Abe Harumi, trying to combine various schools of spells to streamline a new spell system, and trying to create his own spells.

Among them, "simplifying and deteriorating the ancient yin-yang technique" needs to be highlighted:

The former is obvious, draw the rune paper with cinnabar in advance, find it out of your pocket when you use it, hold it between your fingers and inject spiritual power, and recite the battle method for ten seconds or so that everyone dislikes, Abe Harumi successfully simplified some spells into 'names', and bind the fundamental shape of spells with names, but the twelve gods will not know this technique, and they need to be developed by Lyle himself. In addition, Lyle's goal of simplification is one step deeper, and even the 'name' is wanted to be given up, what the heart thinks, and what the art wants.

The latter involves the principle of magic, and part of the yin-yang magic is to cast specific spells with one's own spiritual power, borrowing power from the gods (elves) located in the spirit world to achieve a certain effect, constituting the relationship between belief and belief, protection and protection. Considering his status as a fellow clan, it is estimated that the elves of the spirit world will be particularly friendly to lend their power to protect him, a long-lost junior.

However, Lyle has always positioned himself as a [Destruction Mage], he pursues his own growth, and tends not to borrow power from the elves, and completely uses his own magic to complete the spellcasting...... He succeeded, but in doing so, he lost the power lent by the elves, and his mana consumption increased significantly, and the power of his spells decreased, and the result could only be described as "deterioration".

From another point of view, if one day Lyle is in an enchantment that the elves cannot protect remotely, if one day Lyle wants to be an enemy of the elves, and if some unpredictable change occurs in the spirit world one day, the "deterioration" at this time becomes an epic optimization.

Incidentally, the Tylor will only be initially stunned by this, and will immediately express their understanding after Lyle's explanation. After all, elves have always relied on themselves, and they have never heard of any elves borrowing the power of other elves as a way of fighting, and Lyle's self-reliant attitude is in line with their values.

One day during the summer vacation of the third year of junior high school, Lyle's maternal grandfather suddenly fainted during the morning rush and was found without vital signs.

"Grandpa, I've already contacted my mother, but she still hasn't come back to see you...... I can only ask the village chief to divide the rent of those fields into three parts, one for the village to sell personal favors, one for the cost of repairing and maintaining the house, and one for saving, and I have entrusted Granny Inugami to give it to my mother when she returns. Lyle clasped his hands together and reported to his grandfather's spirit card.

He knew that his grandfather had been reincarnated, and maybe he was being held in the arms of his parents in another world at the moment, and it was pointless to do this kind of thing, but the traditional culture that he had been exposed to was like this, coinciding with the death of his relatives, and he felt the most sad in his heart.

"As for me, I don't plan to go to high school, so I'm trying to go to Tokyo and mix in the world...... I feel that I am very strong, and if I am undecided, I will lose a black ball and run away, it doesn't matter if I am killed, anyway, I am a good man in a different world. After the report, he bowed to the spirit card.

Unaccustomed quiet.

At this point in the past, my grandfather had already returned from the morning and reprimanded him for lying in bed with a straight face.

“…… It's really unpleasant, am I going to summon Taiyin and chat with me until I go to Tokyo? As if to dispel the silence, Lyle deliberately muttered to himself.

Just talking, the twelve gods will have their own lives, and they have never been dominated by Lyle, and this village is not like Kyoto in the days of Abe Harumi when there were enemies every day, and Lyle rarely summoned them except for ghostwriting homework. Dream Chinese

Lyle walked into the kitchen, which was a mess and hadn't even washed last night's utensils, opened the fridge and pulled out a bag of bread and a carton of milk, went back to the living room, which was also a mess, turned on the TV and sat down for breakfast...... Well, this should be lunch.

Despite the fact that his grandfather ran around to deal with affairs after his grandfather's death, someone's low life skills seemed to be an attribute engraved in the depths of his soul, and the result of being born in a family that was not wealthy was almost the same.

"Then, let's go to the shrine again according to the will." Throwing the unfinished bread back into the refrigerator, Lyle went out and walked in the direction of the shrine.

Before leaving for Tokyo, he naturally had to go through the family's belongings, only to find out that there was a will in the locked drawer of his grandfather's bedroom, and the tear-jerking part of the will was omitted, and the point was that there was an order for him to go to the shrine to find the Inugami shrine to ask for another family heirloom.

Why would his family heirloom be in the hands of outsiders for safekeeping—with this wonder, Lyle walked up a somewhat long stone staircase.

"Oops...... Looks like you've found the will? The sister of the Inugami shrine maiden knew the answer from the look on Lyle's face, and motioned to her sister to go to the shrine and take out the items that were to be entrusted.

"Mother-in-law." Lyle greeted respectfully.

It has nothing to do with race, the other party is an elder in the village, and he has secretly dealt with a lot of curses and resentful spirits for the villagers, and it is enough to know this.

The Inugami Shrine Maiden lifted the illusion and said in her original posture: "Yesterday, I saw that you had plans to leave the village, but I found that you didn't mention the matter of the family heirloom, and we were thinking about how to remind you. ”

Even the land rent was all gone, and with the village chief as the source, the whole village would know Lyle's plan in a few days.

"So...... What the hell is going on? Lyle wondered.

"It's nothing, your grandfather doesn't want you to leave the village too soon." The Inu God Shrine Maiden was not in a good mood, and she watched the child who grew up pass away, even if the life expectancy of the two sides was not equal, she still felt uncomfortable, "Your ancestor obtained magic weapons of unknown purpose from country Z, and he thinks that you may know how to use them...... I don't really want you to get your hands on it early. ”

The more confident you are in your own strength, the more courageous you are to take risks, and everyone is the same.

Lyle shook his head and said, "...... Looks like I'm going to disappoint my grandfather. ”

"It's enough that you didn't leave while he was alive." The sister of the Inugami shrine maiden has returned, handing a small wooden box with a charm attached to it to Lyle.

"Your life is yours after all, and the expectations of your elders should not be a burden." The sister of the Inugami Shrine Maiden is probably used to being a shrine maiden, and she habitually explains, "Therefore, your grandfather once asked us to find you a stable livelihood in the inner world, and you can also refuse." ”

"Then please leave it to the two mothers-in-law." Lyle bowed and thanked him.

How could I refuse my grandfather's last care.
