“yes. However much.”
“From now on, I’m going to use the magic, but it consumes a lot of magical power. I’ve stopped bleeding right now, so I don’t have that much magic power. “I need your help.”
“Oh, I see. but… To use , doesn’t it require that you have the exact same magic circle in the location where you want to use it? “Have you already drawn a magic circle outside the system?”
“That’s not right. What I’m going to do is borrow the status of the empire’s common magic circle. hmm… “Can you call it jacking?”
As Pia and Ray were talking calmly, one of the Swan Knights members rushed towards Ray.
“that… What do you mean!? west… Ray, is it really possible to interfere with the empire’s common magic circle?”
“uh… Uh… Melda! “Isn’t that too rude?”
“but! As far as I know, there was only one person, Sylvie Astra, who was a specialist in teleportation magic and was part of the Imperial Army’s assassination unit! “Who can do something like that!”
“Sylvie Astra? Oh, you mean the mage killer unit guy?”
“do you know?”
“what… “I only heard the name.”
‘I tore it to death in subspace… … .’
Ray, who could not say this confidently, asked the woman named Melda with a bitter expression.
“Why do you respect him?”
“Rather than respecting… just… I am from the Imperial Army’s Assassination Department. Then she saw Sylvie. She was a really nice person… I heard she died in the line of duty… … .”
“ah… huh.”
‘I feel somehow guilty.’
Ray broke into a cold sweat, unable to look straight into her innocent eyes.
As Melda and Ray were talking, Pia, who was disapproving, stepped in between her and Ray and spoke.
“Okay then, Ray. How may I help you?
“It’s simple. “From now on, I will draw a magic circle on the ground, so please add magic power to it.”
“yes.”
.
This magic, which is a long-distance movement magic, is called one of the magics that cannot be used alone due to the difficulty of the magic circle and the positioning and mana consumption.
In the first place, the empire operates a common magic circle to facilitate movement to each city, so there is no way for mages to memorize the magic circle, and even if they learn it just once, the difficulty is difficult.
Being able to draw and use such a magic circle must have been a huge shock to Melda.
Ray skillfully drew the magic circle of on the floor.
A level of difficulty that is completely different from existing magic circles.
Even the other knights who were watching couldn’t dare to draw the magic circle, which was made up of various shapes gathered together in a chaotic and mysterious manner.
Moreover, not only is it difficult to draw, but you also need to know the exact coordinates of the magic circle you want to move to, so it cannot be done by simply memorizing the drawing.
Ray, who had drawn such a magic circle perfectly, climbed onto the magic circle and asked Pia to inject him with magical power.
Pia nodded and injected a large amount of magical energy into the magic circle.
Then the magic circle of began to glow.
The amount of magic power is enough to activate a magic circle of teleportation alone… … .
The Swan Knights and Ray couldn’t help but be amazed.
“That’s amazing… Huh? Wait a minute, if you inject magic power, it will activate and you can’t stop it? I can’t help it… “Let’s talk later, Pia.”
“yes. Then I… … .”
“Please do what I asked you earlier. “I’m sorry for only asking you.”
“… … .”
Pia tried to nod to Ray’s words, put a slender finger on her chin, thought about it, and opened her mouth just before Ray disappeared.
“Ray. “Can I ask for something in return for my help this time?”
“cost?”
“yes. Ray, you said that you can’t trust him without compensation, right? Well, he’ll ask for money. that… … .”
“… Pfft. “What kind of price is that?”
Ray, who heard the price from Pia, laughed and disappeared into the light.
In the garden where Ray disappeared, there were the members of the Swan Knights who were excited and watching the amazing situation, the members who had lost their will to fight, and Pia, who smiled with satisfaction.
“Okay, welcome back. Ray.”
Like a wife seeing off her husband on his way to work, she muttered an inaudible greeting under the moonlight.
* * *
Surrounded by shining particles of light, Ray arrived at the top of the magic circle of in Puar Village.
As soon as Ray arrived at Puar Village, he looked around to see if there were any knights.
Fortunately, there were no knights nearby.
But you never know when the knights will attack and the village will show hostility towards you.
Ray entered the village to fill his hungry stomach.
“excuse me… … .”
As Ray entered the village, the eyes of the residents poured in.
I was nervous that the rumor had already spread to this remote village, but the tension soon disappeared when Mary’s parents showed up.
“oh! Isn’t this Mary’s teacher, Ray? “What’s going on here?”
Mary’s parents welcome her with a soft smile.
Ray barely suppressed the tears that came over their warm smiles.
“ah… Well, I came to this town last time and the scenery was nice?! I thought I’d enjoy the atmosphere around here a little… … .”
‘wow… What a charm.’
It’s a word that has absolutely nothing to do with Ray.
But now Ray had to do something to feed his hungry stomach.
In order to do so, we decided that it would be good to evaluate this village as favorably as possible.
“So I came back without thinking. Ahahaha… … !”
“That’s right!”
Fortunately, it seemed like I was fooled.
Because of Ray’s lies, not only Mary’s parents but also other people in the village treated Ray kindly.
When Ray asks how he can get a meal from Mary’s parents, the answer is, of course… … .
“Sure! honey!”
“is it so.”
It was YES.
No matter how little the rumor spread, he smiled warmly and served a meal to the demon Ray Vallière.
Thinking that the people in this village were quite generous, Ray stuffed the meal that Mary’s parents had given him.
“sorry. “If she had known Lady Ray would come, she would have prepared more.”
“ah… no! On the contrary, it is rude for a person to suddenly come to you and ask for just one meal. On the contrary, I am just grateful that you treated me so well.”
Since his position was his position, Ray had no choice but to politely leave.
Ray paced the villagers’ noisy conversation as best he could and shoved meat and bread down his throat.
After a few minutes, Mary’s mother expressed her gratitude for the festival.
“Anyway, I was really grateful for your help during the last village festival. As expected, when you become an Innocent, you are very good at using your physical skills~”
“That’s it… “Because I strengthened my body with magic.”
“I see! Wow, Mary can learn from an excellent person like Ray. This was a windfall! “How worried she was when she was suddenly told in a letter that her teacher had changed!”
At that moment, Ray stopped pushing the meat down his throat.
“windfall… “Do you think so?”
“Eh? mind… Did I say something wrong? oh… sorry. “I guess I made a mistake because I didn’t learn anything!”
“no… I guess it doesn’t matter. “Do you really think it was a windfall for me to become Mary’s teacher?”
When Ray asked a question with a serious expression while eating, Mary’s parents looked at each other blankly, and then Mary’s father stepped forward and answered as if he were representative.
“what… I was worried at first. He even told me to quit school right away and come home. Moreover, they were even kidnapped, so we had to worry a lot.”
Mary’s father chooses his words carefully so as not to offend Ray as much as possible.
Ray just listened silently to those words.
“But Ray saved my daughter. In addition, he also wrote about the help his friends received from Ray. Mary is enjoying her school life as the contents of the letters become thicker as time goes by… “She got to thinking.”
Ray listened silently, then placed his fork on the table.
“As a parent, aren’t you worried that your daughter is learning from a teacher like me? … .”
Even though Ray belittled and criticized him, his parents still smiled leisurely at him.
“Mary… In our family… No, it’s the town’s treasure. In our village, where it is difficult to become a mage even if you have magical power, there is no place to learn it, Mary was the only child who was naturally good at manipulating magic.”
“… … .”
“So, our village looked forward to Mary and raised money to pay for her school fees. But because of that, the child must have had a lot of pressure built up inside. “The letters she sent him after he failed his first grade had her tears all over them.”
That girl with bright freckles had such a burden inside… … .
Ray’s eyes turned slightly red as he listened silently.
“What if I fail the second test?” Those words full of self-reproach were written in the letter. But we had nothing to say other than support and encouragement. Ray, do you know? “Sometimes, how cruel support and encouragement without a solution sound.”
Mary’s father bowed his head at the fact that he had placed such a heavy burden on his daughter.
For her, who has high expectations from the village, there is nothing more cruel than saying ‘you can do it’ or ‘come back if you get tired’ without a solution.
From the spoon on top of the cooling soup, Ray saw Mary sitting at her desk writing a letter, wiping away tears.
In the midst of such a depressing atmosphere, Mary’s mother came forward instead of her father, grabbed Ray’s hand where he had put down his fork with both hands and said,
“But I heard that Ray taught her how to pass the test easily!”
“… ah.”
‘It’s an easy way to pass. Well, it’s not wrong, so let’s move on.’
“Thanks to you, Mary said she was able to stop worrying for a moment. And she really passed her test too.”
“… “It is a one-time method, so you will not be able to rely on that method from the next exam.”
“Even if it’s a one-time thing, it’s okay. “We wanted to see Mary’s smiling face.”
“that’s right! In fact, even though I sent her to magic school, I thought she might come back with a sad face after learning about the cruelty of society… How happy I was to pass her exam and to come back to the village with the friends she made and smile… … .”
Mary’s mother suddenly stood up and bowed deeply towards Ray.
Because of this, Ray was embarrassed and had no choice but to kick off his chair and get up.
“radish… “What are you doing!”
