Chapter 9 (1/2)
Big news!
Lo and behold, in this world, magic exists!
[Wow, Miina, what did you do? It’s almost like magic!]
Because I was surprised, even though Miina fixed my finger I reflexively treated it as a joke.
[Of course it’s magic.]
Miina nodded, saying it like it was the most natural thing in the world.
[Wonderful! It’s wonderful!! Then, with magic, can you fly, can you do all sorts of things?]
I was extremely excited.
I mean, magic is something like out of a fairy tail, who has never heard of magic in a tale and went “ooh, I wish I could use magic... “ That magic can actually be used, that is super wonderful.
[Someone with very formidable power can soar through the sky, is what I heard. Everyone can use magic however, since everyones different there are certainly many different things that can be done with magic.]
[Is that so! Then, I might also be able to fly through the air, and like Miina cure wounds, right!!]
Gripping Miina’s hands, I inched closer to her with a look in my eyes as if I was eyeing prey.
[Hey hey, how is it used? I also want to try doing it!!]
[...Liliana, do you perhaps not know about magic?]
Confused, Miina asked me.
The moment I heard that, I went from being hyper to feeling like someone threw cold water on me.
Apparently in this world, knowledge about magic is considered common knowledge.
In my previous life, magic was in the world of fantasy, and didn’t exist in reality.
Because of that, I thought not being able to use magic was normal, and didn’t even try learning anything about it.
I don’t know anything about this world.
I was born in the role as the daughter of a count.
Even though he is a poor count, because of the people working in this fief I have this station in life.
The people of the fief don’t exist for our sake.
We exist for the people of the fief.
If I don’t know anything, then how am I going to help others?
Therefore, from now on ignorance won’t be tolerated.
Because ignorance is a sin.
This is the obligation of n.o.bility, n.o.blesse oblige.
