Episode 36. Summon Spirit (1)

“What effect does the homonym ‘Rash’ among rune words have during magic manifestation?”

“Rash has the meaning of attraction and control. Even if it is the same Rashu, if you put the wrong meaning while chanting magic, it can cause serious trouble. “The higher the circle, the more severe the repercussions.”

“ah! okay.”

The wizard was very kind.

He created an atmosphere that made it easy to start talking with his friendliness.

So comfortable that I can’t even speak.

At the same time, the perception of wizards as being harsh and arrogant was also shattered.

Meeting Gerius was like God’s arrangement.

A rune that I memorized on my own, but whose meaning is not easy to understand.

I kept asking Gerius questions.

“He’s not even a wizard, but his rune skills are amazing. There are many people who do not understand the meaning of runes even after studying them for years. “I think you would have become a great wizard if you had trained in the Circle.”

Gerius was truly impressed.

How would you look if you found out that you accomplished all of this in one night?

“The skills are insufficient. This happened because I was very interested. Then what do you do? “I can’t even use circle 1 magic.”

“If I help, it will be possible to reach the 2nd circle. But it’s hard for you because you’re a prosecutor.”

“Why is that so?”

I asked as my interest index soared.

He seemed like a noble person who would give cool answers to everything I was curious about in this world.

“The swordsman’s mana… Forms a mana hole in the lower abdomen. “Our wizard uses ‘dragon breath’ to accumulate mana in his chest.”

“Is that so?”

“The higher your enlightenment, the more the circle in your heart increases. Depending on the number of circles, you can manipulate the surrounding mana as you wish.”

“… “Can’t I learn swordsmanship and use magic at the same time?”

“You’re a mid-level mercenary, but you don’t know the difference?”

“There was a teacher, but he was a weirdo.”

“geezer?”

“I don’t know the detailed teachings. So I don’t know anything.”

I sold my teacher.

Gerius nodded and continued his explanation.

“Of course you can use both… … . However, if it accumulates beyond a certain level, it can conflict and cause death or disability due to mana reflux.”

Death and ruin.

It’s not an easy choice.

But for me.

“Is there a breathing method unique to excellent swordsmen?”

“Of course. Each family knight has their own breathing method. However, it is a huge secret and is not easily passed down.”

“What about the talented mercenaries?”

“Most of them are half-baked. A complete breathing technique is rare.”

“Thank you for your kind explanation. “It’s shameless, but is it okay if I ask you some questions while I’m accompanying you?”

I politely asked for your understanding.

Self-taught magic had many limitations.

“You are welcome anytime. Isn’t everyone who knows the joy of learning a friend? It takes about a month to get to the capital of the empire… … If you have any questions in the meantime, you can ask at any time. “It’s a pleasure to share knowledge with passionate people like you.”

A handsome wizard with a gentle smile.

Gerius did not disappoint.

I felt the warmth of an older brother.

“It may not be enough, but I will treat you as an older brother.”

The odds of victory were high.

Gerius is a pure man.

As long as I came, I confirmed his character.

And I read loneliness from Gerius.

I felt a strange sense of kinship.

I felt lonely, like I was without a brother.

“brother?”

“yes. “Brother!”

The wizard looks into my eyes.

Deep sparkling blue eyes.

I couldn’t read it, but I felt it.

His soul is looking into mine.

Gerius laughs softly.

and.

“ha ha ha. good. From this moment on, Jin, you are my younger brother.”

Gerius cheerfully accepts.

My heart is heavy inside.

“older brother!! thank you!”

I bowed my head.

It was overflowing with sincerity.

After arriving in this world, I became a sworn brother for the first time.

“I am more grateful. “For calling me ‘brother’ despite my lack of skills.”

A wizard with a good nature.

The eyes looking at me are warm.

A relationship granted by heaven.

I had a strong desire to be together forever.

***

“older brother! “Teach me magic.”

Evening camp.

After eating with my companions, I pestered Gerius and asked him to teach me how to use magic.

I was completely familiar with the connotations and meanings of the rune words over the course of several days.

And the magic book I started reading yesterday.

I didn’t know how to use it, so I asked Gerius.

“Are you sure? Once you acquire it, it is clear that traces of mana will remain and will hinder your ability to become an advanced swordsman later… … . “Are you really not going to regret it?”

“yes! “Don’t worry, just teach me.”

Gerius quenched his appetite at the firm answer.

“I get it… … . Just in case, don’t hold a grudge later.”

“thank you! older brother!”

As soon as I got a clear answer, I answered bravely.

An opportunity of a lifetime.

“jin. “You can’t take it easy.”

“The magic swordsman… … I can’t… … .”

The mercenaries felt truly sorry.

Their common sense won’t make sense.

A young, promising mid-level mercenary would not seem sane if he chose to become a trash magic swordsman.

“Let’s go somewhere quiet. “I will make you feel the magic mana.”

Gerius moved to a quiet place.

I gave permission and didn’t say it twice.

I moved to my seat following Gerius.

“Close your eyes and sit with your legs crossed. “With both hands, draw a circle towards your heart with your fingers touching each other.”

I assumed the meditation posture that wizards take.

“Concentrate. “The first experience is the most important.”

“yes!”

I answered and focused.

A meditation posture with deep bones.

Even if lightning struck the Earth, it did not move.

Honestly, I was nervous.

Curious about the magician’s mana mentioned here.

Now it’s time to taste it.

That moment.

“Mana Will, show me the new world of mana breath!”

It is a rune spell.

and.

“Mana peeling!”

Weeeeeee.

A strange wave of energy envelops the entire body with a single shout.

It flowed through my body and gathered at the seal in front of my chest.

A strange energy felt in the heart at that moment.

“!!!”

I got a feeling.

It’s no different from inner strength!

The natural treasures I have accumulated so far!

“Can you feel it? Remember the feeling well and practice. “A circle will occur in about a year at the earliest.”

I just nodded.

It feels perfect.

1 year?

Even if it is long, it is too long.

“Thank you, brother!”

“done. “It’s not that difficult.”

Cool.

Gerius is a man of humility.

“older brother. Do you also know about the spirit summoning magic circle?”

“It is the basis for magic circle practice.”

“Teach me! “I’ve wanted to know for a long time.”

“okay?”

Gerius tilted his head.

A spirit followed by magic.

“You’re greedy. This is good posture. The magic circle is not difficult, but you need spirit stones in addition to mana stones. “I don’t own anything now.”

“Don’t worry about that. “I have it.”

“really?”

I brought the bag that was tied to Trump’s back.

I took out the spirit summoning magic circle materials I purchased from the magic guild.

“You carry all sorts of things with you.”

“Where I live, there is a saying that says, ‘Only those who are well-prepared escape a crisis.’”

“That’s a good saying.”

Pow!

Gerius leveled the floor with magic.

A floor as smooth as marble.

“The spirit summoning magic circle is a magic circle that summons spirits from the spirit world based on the four major elements.”

Swish swish.

I drew a pentagram on a large circle using mana stone powder.

Then, a rune to summon a spirit was engraved.

Rune words were placed.

A beautiful rune masterpiece!

It was simpler than I thought.

“It’s done. All you have to do is place the spirit stone in the center and recite a spell. But why are you curious about this? Spirit affinity is not easy to obtain, and if you learn magic, spirits will not be summoned… … .”

Gerius looked at me with questioning eyes.

It’s hard to tell the truth.

“Do I have to draw the summoning magic circle every time I summon a spirit?”

“It is only used when summoning spirits and making contracts. “Humans are not inherently friendly with spirits, so the magic circle increases that affinity.”

“Are you talking about bridging roles?”

“Yes, a bridge role. However, dragons and elves can do without this magic circle.”

“okay… … .”

Gerius’ kind explanation and response.

I put the spirit summoning magic circle in my head.

A magic circle for summoning spirits remembered like a photograph.

Just wait for tonight!!!
