A Great Man Who Does Not Appear in Magic History - Chapter 3
?Ein: Your hand.?
Shannon stretches out her hand.
Ein stood behind her and put his hand on hers for assistance.
?Ein: {Blair} is the most basic of spells. Focus your awareness on your hand.?
Shannon put strength into her hand with a serious expression.
Then a dim light could be seen on her palm.
?Ein: Excellent. What you see there is your magical power. Collect the magical power circulating in your body on your fingertips and release it.?
The emitted magical power by itself does not have a significant effect on the outside world, but it is able to interfere with magical bodies: Ghosts, and cause them to disappear.
That is:?Purification{Blair}?.
It is the most fundamental spell that does not require the use of a magic formation.
?Shannon: Haaaaaaaaaaaa.?
Shannon strained her body and stuck out her palm.
However, the light on her hand disappeared in a flash.
?Shannon: ah……….?
?Ein: Again. Give it your best shot.?
?Shannon: Haaaaaaaaaaaa?
Shannon withdraws her hand and applies strength to it.
The light in her hand shone brighter and brighter.
Ein was observing this with great interest.
(The light of her magical power is potent. The magical power inside the body is rarely so visible.)
When Shannon stuck out her hand, the light of her magical power went out again.
(In return, that makes it extremely difficult for her to control. There are even theses that, on the contrary, state that spells can’t be used once they’ve exceeded a certain amount of magical power. But if she can??)
With hollow eyes, Shannon’s shoulders slump dejectedly.
In a depressed voice, she said.
?…..I don’t want to do anymore today.?
?Ein: What? Who gives up so easily? Again.?
Ein encourages her to continue, but she keeps her back to him.
?Ein: You promised me that you will become a Magician.?
As Ein tries to extend his hand,
?Noooo!?
Shaking it off, Shannon stormed out of the room.
?……….?
(I don’t get it at all dang it. She was so motivated a while ago.)
As he stood there at a loss, he stared in the direction Shannon ran to.
With a sigh, Ein walks away and begins searching the castle.
?Ein: Shannon? Shannon, where are you? Come out.?
However, Shannon is nowhere to be found, as though hiding somewhere.
(Where is she holed up in? I’ve checked everywhere.)
Ein, at his wits end, put his hand on his head.
?Ein: This is why I don’t like them. That kid herself promised—?
Immediately after he blurted this out, the thought of what an adult Magician Specialist once said to him back when he was a student occurred to Ein.
?What are you on about? You personally said you would do it. Grow up already.?
It happens all the time.
An Adult who wants others to move as they wish, using their eloquence in deceitful manners to substitute for the other’s spontaneous actions.
Such things cannot be called promises.
Did Shannon really have the option to turn down the promise to become a Magician?
Ein looks down and illustrates a magic formation.
??Magic Sound Call{Tesla}??
§§§
The Throne Room.
Hiding behind the throne; Shannon was cowering.
Tears spilled out and they kept coming.
????: You defective piece of junk! I didn’t giving birth you!?
What came back to her mind were the heartless words of her real mother.
Tears streamed down without end and smeared the floor.
At that moment, a voice echoed.
?Ein: Shannon, can you hear me??
Surprised, Shannon looked around restlessly.
?Ein: I’m talking to you through the {Tesla} spell. I’m no way near you.?
A spell able to transmit magical sounds far away and allow for conversations in remote areas.
Ein, who was in the passage, sat down where he was and focused on talking with Shannon.
?Ein: The faults with me.?
Shannon looked up; her eyes wide open.
?Ein: Do you really not want to become a Magician? ?
No answer.
Nevertheless, Ein clumsily and haltingly tells her.
?It’s okay. If you don’t like magic, that’s on me. You have every right to be whatever you want.?
The words become magical sounds that reach Shannon a distance away from him.
?Ein: I have a duty to protect that right. Remember that.?
A few seconds of silence.
?Shannon: Does Papa also…?
A faint voice echoes through {Tesla}.
?…hate Shannon??
Falteringly, Shannon now began to speak.
?Shannon: Long ago, Mama teach me magic. Shannon tried her best. Was very hard. But, couldn’t do it.?
She says while shedding tears.
She could not memorize the spells.
?Shannon: Mama hates Shannon. Because Shannon can’t make money so she’s useless.?
Shannon was downcast while large drops of tears spilled.
?Shannon: Shannon was a bad girl, so she left.?
?Ein: Absurd! ?
Ein cried out involuntarily.
What he felt was anger towards the mother whom he had never met.
(It make zero sense… how in the world is that her fault…!?)
?Shannon: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! ! ?
A shriek cut through his thoughts.
Shannon, who was behind the throne, was being approached by the low-class ghost from earlier.
?Don’t touch.?
Shannon backs away; rattling and shaking.
The low-class ghost wriggled fearfully.
Gradually, over time, Shannon retreats.
However, she missteps and falls down just like that.
?Ein: Guess what, Shannon.?
Ein held her just in time.
He lets Shannon gently hold the gear necklace in his hand.
?Ein: I’ve been working on new magic.?
Ein speaks softly to her.
?Ein: With it, anyone can use magic. Doesn’t matter if they don’t have magical power; doesn’t matter if their control of it sucks.?
?Shannon:..Shannon too??
?Ein: When I first used magic around your age, the world changed for me.?
In Ein’s mind, his childhood self naturally pops up.
With a radiant smile, he gazed at the spell he had invoked for the first time.
?Ein: A while ago, that’s???
The gear necklace reacted, and light emitted from her fingertips.
When Shannon stretched out her fingertips, even more magical power spilled out from them.
Ein gently put his hand from behind on hers for assistance.
?Ein: What I wanted to share with you as well.?
A dazzling light was emitted, triggering: {Blair} , and the throne room was dyed in pure white.
The Low-level ghost is being purified instantly.
Wide-eyed, Shannon stared blankly at the magic she had cast.
?Ein: The magical power you emitted was amplified. This is the gear system under study.?
Then it happened.
The gear necklace cracks and shatters into pieces.
?Ein:..Well, it’s still incomplete. Even now, I primarily did the assisting, but in principle–?
Ein suddenly stops speaking.
He could see her childish expression gradually turn into a broad smile, like a blossoming flower.
?Shannon: I did it….. !?
Shannon raised her voice.
Ein watched her with an affectionate gaze.
?Shannon: Shannon will become a magican too!!?
Full of energy, she poses casting magic with his wand
?Ein: It’s important you study for it.?
Ein pierced the nail.(1)
?Ein: Let’s get going. You’ve to decide on your room.?
?Shannon: Here’s good for Shannon. Throooone!?
Shannon sprints off and sits on the throne.
?Ein: You little… y’know the ghost will reappear, right??
?Shannon: Papa will beat it!?
Shannon stands on tiptoes and stretches out her hands vigorously.
?Ein: You’re beyond my comprehension.?
Ein looked at Shannon, who was puffing out her chest on the throne, and smiled wryly.
