Episode 12 Beginning of swordsmanship (3)
The size of Ray’s sword was overwhelming.
The sense of intimidation he exudes just standing there with a sword is not normal.
No matter how strong Ale’s sword aura was, it wasn’t strong enough to overcome the difference in reach.
“This guy… be mean…”
“Who was the first to be mean.”
Ray grinned and straightened his sword.
Obviously, he just pushed the handle, but the sword aura was so huge that it swept right in front of Ale’s nose.
“…Ale surrender.”
“…”
Sein held back.
However, what would be the face of a man if he stopped here?
Ale was a man who knew how to equip Gao.
“Ha ha ha ha ha. okay. Come on!”
“Really go!”
Ray took a step from his place and raised it diagonally.
He took only one more step, but Ale had to take two steps back to block it.
Kaga River-
Ale drooled while making a loud noise.
“Ugh…”
I thought it only increased in size, but the density that makes up the sword aura also increased.
Of course, since it was the beginning of the aura user, it couldn’t exceed its own aura, but it wasn’t so bad that it was pushed out like the first time.
Due to the unexpectedly heavy size, Ale approached while spilling Ray’s attack.
No matter how big it is, that’s all.
It was okay if I didn’t block it from the front.
Hana Ray also knew that, so he didn’t do vertical strikes or upward slashes as much as possible.
It always cuts diagonally, but when it starts to attack, it retrieves the sword like a ghost.
It was clear that he knew exactly when to take out the sword and when to retrieve it.
No matter how much it is an Aura user’s beginner level, the size of the sword is different.
Even if he wielded it clumsily, Ale had to do his best to block it or spill it.
However, the weakness of swordsmanship is bound to be revealed.
I learned kendo in modern times, but it was too low compared to where I always live with only one sword slung around my waist.
The key was to win before Ale could adapt to swordsmanship he had never experienced before.
Ray gritted it.
‘The timing for receiving it is slowly getting right. I must hurry.’
Since earlier, the number of blocking the sword has increased rather than shedding.
That means he has adapted to his swordsmanship.
As Ray lost his impatience, Ale burrowed beside him.
As the size of the sword is large, it is difficult to retrieve it right away.
He had no choice but to give Ale some distance.
He tried to distance himself once more by quickly blocking Aile’s sword with the handle, but at that moment, Aile’s foot jumped out and kicked his hand away.
For
a moment, I couldn’t feel any sensation in my hand.
Naturally, the sword flew high and fell to the ground.
Ray, who was devastated as he watched the sword fly away, sat down at the considerable pain he felt afterwards.
“Ugh…”
“Ha ha ha ha ha. It is my victory.”
Eil threw his sword away and walked towards him.
Then he started calling Sein in a loud voice.
“three! Ray is injured, heal him.”
Since the middle of the year, Sein had gone inside to do housework, so he jumped out at Ale’s call.
“Who is hurt? oh!”
she flew
As if she had some medical knowledge, she briefly touched Ray’s hand.
“Ahh! it hurts!”
He screamed at a pain he had never felt in his entire life.
To be honest, I’ve never been seriously hurt before, so I didn’t know it was the first time I’d been in pain like this.
Her face became contemplative as she touched his hand for a moment.
“Bone bone is broken…”
Then Ale also stuttered.
“A bone… injured?”
To be honest, Ale had no idea what to do with her son’s hands.
I only momentarily put my foot in a gap I barely found during sparring.
Of course, the power was adjusted.
However, he should have kept in mind that Ray couldn’t activate mana in his body yet.
I couldn’t erase the feeling of fighting the first Auror user while doing sparring, so I pretended to be fighting an ordinary Auror user.
It was clearly his mistake.
Moreover, when he saw that Ray’s grip was torn from the clash with Ale, Sane even glared at Ale fiercely.
How to apologize, Ale looked at himself and groaned.
Ray forced a smile as he thought his father would be scolded if he continued like this.
Of course, the pain was too much to laugh at, but that was the case.
“are you okay. It can be cured with magic.”
As he spoke, he shouted the starter word into his arm.
“Heal.”
Mana flowed out and covered his hand at once.
Sain was worried because he witnessed the scene where a deer was killed by Ray’s heel.
Even so, he was only watching with the feeling that it would not be a problem for his clever son.
In fact, Ray’s healing magic can only be received if you have a mana rod capable of withstanding his ridiculous density of mana.
Of course the deer has no choice but to die. It was because it was impossible for a deer without a mana rod to withstand Ray’s mana in the first place.
Mana rushed around Ray’s hand, emitting a bright light.
The massive amount of light was enough to instantly blind them.
“Ugh…”
“It’s dazzling…”
Eventually, the light gradually subsided and Sein, who was able to grasp his surroundings, hurriedly looked at Ray’s hand.
And she was frozen in that state.
Ray’s hand had returned to its normal state.
Eil, who watched the scene, was at a loss for words.
“what?”
He himself was surprised.
It is a simple 1-circle healing magic.
Even if you cast it, it is impossible to get better immediately or go back to the past.
But Ray’s hand is completely healed.
As if it was hard to believe, Sein squeezed Ray’s hand again.
“It’s got bones…”
“It’s my son, but it’s hard to believe…”
Ray opened and closed his hands, moving them for a moment.
‘Isn’t there anything different from before?’
I touched it lightly and it must have been a bone.
It also stuck neatly in its original state.
Even the torn hand was fine.
He didn’t know that the healing magic that killed the deer, as if his mission was to mortify the target, would be so effective.
I just thought the wound would heal a little, but isn’t this better than the condition of my hands before sparring!
“Even if the priest treats it, it won’t get better this quickly.”
Ale said jokingly.
However, Sein also nodded in affirmation.
“I mean.”
“I heard you failed to use heel last time?”
“Then it failed. But why is it possible now?”
“Well…”
Muttered by his parents, Ray felt that the time had come for an explanation.
Wouldn’t it be nice to look at and proud to say that he confessed before Ale and Sain asked?
“mom and dad. I have something to tell you about my magic. But can I talk to you over lunch? I’m a bit hungry right now…”
Although it’s still early, Ray, who was hungry from the sparring, said while looking at Sein.
Sein put his hand on his cheek and murmured as he saw Ray, whom he hadn’t seen before, urge him to eat.
“Your ears are cute.”
Ale’s expression changed as if he was looking at something pitiful.
“That is also a disease.”
* * *
Ale apologized for what happened in the yard.
Despite the fact that it was the first couplet, the unexpected son’s strength burned with a sense of pity, and eventually made a mistake.
However, it was not only Ale who tried to win, but also himself, so he was able to pass it off with a smile.
Wasn’t he too proud to pass everything off as his mistake?
After apologizing, Ale told Ray what he felt while sparring and needed to be corrected.
It was just a word to be careful, as making a sword aura by pouring too much mana into it would be inefficient.
Hana Ray has no limit on mana.
So no matter how big you make it, it doesn’t matter.
As we talked about him, a table full of food appeared on one side of the table before we knew it.
Looking at the generously set table, Ray gulped down his saliva.
Maybe it was because it was the first time he was born to move his body vigorously, so Sain thought of Ray and made a really hearty meal.
Seeing that, Ale’s eyes also turned round.
“Isn’t it like the early days of newlyweds?”
At the time not long after they got married, Se-in set the table with incredible sincerity.
It was prepared with care to the point that it would be considered rude to leave it without being able to eat it all.
However, after two years, the food on the table decreased one by one, and now it has become normal.
Ale, who had adapted to the usual dining table, shed tears while watching the current meal.
“This is it. After all, sincerity is like this.”
“It’s been a while since I showed off my skills. Eat a lot, my son!”
Ray also smiled at his mother’s smile.
“thank you for this food.”
“Come on, let’s eat well.”
As he finished speaking, he brought the food to his mouth.
The moment the food entered my mouth, an indescribable feeling flooded in.
It took only a moment for the ship, which was struggling with hunger, to find vitality.
“Really delicious, Mom!”
Sein smiled happily at him.
“Eat a lot.”
Aile just put the meat in his mouth and chewed it.
“But didn’t you say you had something to talk about?”
“Ah…”
It’s finally here!
He didn’t think he would understand everything.
Honestly, who would believe me if I said that I felt the energy of mana from a young age.
And he had to explain his unusual mana rod.
After taking a deep breath, Ray looked at the two of them and started talking.
“Didn’t you two think I was weird since I was little?”
“It was strange.”
“It was definitely strange.”
Seeing his parents answer without hesitation, Ray was quite shocked.
No matter how much I expected the answer, I didn’t expect it to respond so quickly.
“…Where was it strange?”
“entire.”
“I know. The kid doesn’t cry often.”
“…”
When I heard it, I had nothing to say.
He was flustered to the point of fainting, but after taking another deep breath, Ray spoke.
“Actually, I’ve felt mana since I was a child.”
“Are you still a child?”
“It’s okay, baby.”
“Ah really! So I started feeling mana when I was three months old!”
Ray began to feel mana when he was three months old.
Of course, I couldn’t do anything about it, but I could literally feel it. Even so, it was not unreasonable to focus Sein and Ale.
This time, Ale and Sain couldn’t help but be surprised, as if their predictions were correct.
“As expected, my son!”
“cancer. That should be enough for my son.”
However, it was not the reaction he wanted.
Ray let out a sigh.
“What circle do you two think I am now?”
Neither of them was able to answer the question right now.
After taking some time to think, Sein answered first.
“Since you can omit spells for the magic of the 1st circle… maybe the 3rd circle?”
“What are you talking about. I don’t know what it is, but Ray’s mana density is very high. Just looking at it, you can say it’s 4 circles.”
Seeing them arguing with each other, Ray spoke quietly.
“I don’t have a circle.”
