36.Time Corridor (3)
Naturally, no one will tell themselves the answer to this question, as they think, as the facts describe, that they are just an ordinary ordinary person, doing ordinary work, having ordinary happiness or sorrow, singing ordinary songs when they are happy, and crying when they are sad.
Magic may be something too distant for you, at least ...... The ordinary self is not capable of touching.
How long did it take? I was able to calm down a little and finally stood up. Sometimes, the mood is really an incredible thing, and after you calm down a little, not only will you not shiver just by pouring the tea, but even the water can watch it boil peacefully.
Why, until I was about to lose, I could not recall where the path of true peace was. Just do things safely every day, without touching any dangerous taboos, and without participating in any rigorous training, ......
Myself......
"Leigh?"
Myself......
Sure enough, I still can't do it!
"Old, sir?"
It was a long-lost voice of concern from his master, and if I remember it well, the last time I heard it was the moment he took him in.
Turning around, his face must have been "panicked" at the moment, after all, he saw something that he was afraid of: the old man, who was supposed to continue teaching his students and had never left the table halfway, had already put on his coat at the moment. Apparently...... He had already interrupted the lesson, which had only just begun.
"Hold, sorry, it's late for the tea frying. ”
Panicked. Helpless self. In fact, I am extremely annoying. After all, everyone wants to be as calm and calm as the master. Elegant and noble. No matter how bad it is, her students can too, and the temperament that seems to emanate from the bones is something that any ordinary person yearns for.
However, no matter how much you study, I am afraid that there is no way to achieve it. After all, that elegance is supported by one important thing, and that is ...... Magic.
"It's okay, the course ended a little quickly. So they're gone. ”
After a pause, the old man's gaze turned to the tea leaves, "For two, you should also try your craft." ”
"Huh?"
......
No ordinary conversation, no more warm "giving", perhaps, that's where it all began. Radiance is really a very nasty thing, she will blind herself when she faces it and make herself fall, and she will shine behind herself to warm herself when she turns back.
Time was left to himself with two long corridors that could be seen. One side is flat and dull, and the other side is bumpy and dazzling. Myself......
"Old man......"
Even with a crying tone. Even if the face must be ugly, even if you are so ordinary that you can no longer be ordinary you can choose a more ordinary future, but ......
The heart must be toward the light.
"I ...... I really wanted to...... Know the magic. ”
“......”
That must be the beginning of everything, and I never regretted walking on the corridor of time illuminated by the light.
"Very good, let's make tea. ”
......
At the moment, little by little, the quaint and expensive enough to buy hundreds of their own hanging clocks are constantly "clicking" in action. The tea had already been prepared, but it wasn't until it was served in a delicate cup that I realized that I didn't have the strength to serve it to the thing I was used to.
And the old man in front of him had already closed his eyes and took a sip, and his face was still so unfazed.
It is said that tea can make people calm, and even the most indifferent people will become comfortable when they taste good tea. Naturally, there will be no problem with the tea that the master prepared for himself, it must be the reason why the master is still so silent that it is so expensive that it is almost impossible to buy...... It must be because the skill of making tea by yourself is not up to par.
Ha...... It's been a long time since I was able to do everything in the housework, and I'm really a hopelessly ordinary guy.
"It's progressive. ”
"Huh?"
"This time it's more flavorful than before. ”
The old man opened his eyes, and he ...... Finally, he showed a relaxed expression. Myself...... But, but why, Ming Ming made tea in a hurry this time than any before, and Ming Ming even delayed a lot of time at the beginning......
Why......
"Leigh, why did you leave just now?"
It was the old man who asked, "You want to know the magic, the atmosphere there is the best." ”
"I ......"
Why? Yes, I also want to ask myself why I ran away in a panic. Obviously no one spoke ill of herself, no one wanted to drive her away, even if Miss Miradorolu had a bad attitude at first, but she forgot about herself at all when she was studying.
"I'm a normal person. ”
This must be their own answer. Put aside all the rhetoric, put aside all the self-recklessness, and since you have decided to chase this light, don't be afraid to expose all your "timidity".
"Master, sure enough, I still can't study with them, I can't compare to them, I don't understand anything, and I'm stupid. ”
However, even if he is so ordinary, so stupid, he has an excessive request.
“...... Even if it's hiding in a corner and reading a book, or being able to show me some notes you don't want, that's enough. ”
“...... A good magician shouldn't have such a low goal. But...... It's really not appropriate to tie yourself to that kind of thinking. ”
After a pause, the old man pointed his finger, "Let's drink tea." ”
"Ah, yes...... Yes!"
My hands are trembling, it's really ...... It's too uncompetitive. The slightly bitter tea spreads in the mouth, and you don't have to think about it to know that this good tea has long been "worthless" by yourself. It turns out that the old man has been tasting his "failure", but the arrogant self still thinks that after a few months of training, he has become mature.
"You don't know anything about magic, so I can't talk about it, and of course, you're not qualified to be my student. So, until you have the qualifications, you can only rely on yourself. ”
“...... Yes!"
"However, although I will not teach you directly, as a maid, daily cleaning is also essential. ”
As he spoke, the old man laughed, that is...... Make yourself smile brightly.
Sure enough, the light will always shine in front of you, even if it can't be touched, you can't cross it, but ......
It's still so longing for myself.
"So, even if you go in and out of the master's room often, there is no problem at all. Of course, working more doesn't make a wage, can you accept it, Leigh?"
(38 Happy, Happy, Happy...... However, there is nothing to do, and I have to go to work tomorrow...... Tired. (To be continued.) )
