Chapter 16: In search of power

“Mr.Reiji, you are not doing it on purpose right?”

“It’s not on purpose! Please believe me……”

Tena asked with reproachful eyes while hand a dry cloth to Reiji.

Dripping wet, Reiji who should have been going through light magic special training but somehow transformed into a water fountain receives the cloth and begins wiping his hair.

Tena’s glance is cold as Reiji had splash water on Orlaine too, exposing an unladylike appearance.

“That reminds me, you rolled up Anri-sama’s skirt too, right?”

“Well, It can’t be help because magic flies out on it’s own!?

Ouch, Ouch, don’t peck me!”

The crow starts pecking at Reiji and although he made an excuse desperately, his blus.h.i.+ng from remembering the scene from that time did not even have an ounce of persuasiveness.

“I think the timing is too good.”

“Uu……but it might be so.

Then, it’s the Evil G.o.d! It’s undoubtedly a plot of the Evil G.o.d!”

“Kaa-?”

“Please forgive me……”

The crow goes along with the lukewarm gaze Tena made specially.

When Reiji is crestfallen and implores disappointingly, it seem like Tena was not truly serious too, breaking her appearance into a wry smile.

“Fufu, it’s a joke.

Ah, However it’s no good if you do not apologize properly to Ms.Orlaine, you know?”

“That is of course, I have that intention.”

To the words of Tena, Reiji nodded with a serious face.

Even though it wasn’t of his own will, her immodest form was seen in the end after splas.h.i.+ng water.

He agreed to Tena’s opinion for a need to apologize properly.

“Umm……”

Such a Reiji nervously addressed Orlaine whose moisture was evaporated with Eligor’s fire magic.

Reiji who saw that form expressed his apology the first thing after opening his mouth.

“I am sorry!”

“……yes?”

“……eh?”

Just like Reiji who lowered his head deeply, Orlaine who was supposed to be apologized to bow at the same time.

It became a situation where they bow mutually, and respectively both raised a perplexed voice when they were apologized to though they intended to apologize.

Err, Why are you apologizing Ms.Orlaine?”

“That, as I upset and hit you, I’m truly sorry.

It was painful, right……”

Certainly, Reiji who have seen her unladylike figure got hit in the crown of his head with her bow immediately after that.

That single blow doesn’t seem to have been release from the slender arm of a woman, hiding an intense power.

“No, about that is okay.

More than that, I am sorry too.”

“It’s all right.

I have already gotten dry.”

“My magic isn’t a subst.i.tute for cloth, yet……”

Although Eligor who was made to cooperate forcibly to dry her clothes says so, his dignity was also halved after being overwhelmed by a bloodcurdling Orlaine and dejectedly cooperated.

“Although it was interrupted, Let’s resume training of light magic again.

Ah, this time I’m sure you will let me look in a remote place, right!”

“I understand.

Still, ‘Auto Magic’ will not continously activate like that too.”

Reiji who said an optimistic thing, just as one thought, made a water fountain again a few minutes later.

“It’s done!”

Although Reiji was turned into a fountain twice, third time’s the charm, and he successfully released light magic finally during the third time.

The magic only illuminates the surrounding and do not have any offensive powers, but the light emitted from Reiji’s hands is powerful with brightness equivalent to daytime outside despite being indoors. Reiji who was deeply emotional at succeeding to cast magic on his own for the first time, was waving his light emitting hands and looking pleased at the swaying state.

“Congratulations.

It’s troublesome, so let’s memorize a few more magic as you are now.”

“Eh? Ah, Wait……”

However, by the Sparta instruction who was ordering task in succession to the beginner who have successfully release magic one with his own strength just a few minutes ago, that emotion crumbled away in an instant too.

Although Orlaine has a gorgeous smile floating on her pretty face, she might still remain angry subtly as expected.

Reiji was chanting light magic one after another demanded by her like this.
