7 Episode 7 First Magic and Surprising Facts (2/2)

Yes. If you use it out of curiosity and have an accident, you're out of luck.

And I don't want to disappoint my uncle by doing it without permission.

...... After that, I asked Crabbe to show me some of his magic.

”Uncle, I have a question.

”What is it?　Tell me anything.

How much magic should I put into a spell?

Magic power is not consumed by itself when you cast a spell. You have to manipulate the magic yourself and put it into each word or phrase.

Therefore, just like fuel, I wanted to know a number to use as a guide, like a scale, such as this amount for this word, or this amount for this word .......

But--

There is no such thing. Just a hunch.

Yes?

”Instinct.

Crabbe replied that it was just a feeling.

The answer was so fluffy that Arx froze.

Since the amount of magic power that can be put into a word is specified by the spell, he thought that there should be a standard amount.

But the answer was a hunch.

Then I thought

”You can't tell how much magic to put into a word. Because, you know.　Magic is invisible and has no weight. There's no way to measure it.

So, how do you know how much you need?

You have to rely on your senses. Then you have to use it over and over again, try it out, and finally you will be able to do it.

That's what Crabbe says, but I'm not convinced.

Ki, if you don't know the basic values, even if you use it repeatedly, there will be errors from person to person!

”Oh?　You know some hard words. You're right. That's right. That's why we have training.

”............

I heard him say that there is no way to measure the amount of magic power in detail. I was wondering if there was a way to measure the amount of magic, since the measurement before the disinheritance was a primitive method of releasing magic power on the surface of the lake and making it ripple for a certain period of time.

When I was thinking about it, I suddenly noticed Crabbe giving me an indescribable look.

”......, what's up?

I've been thinking about this since yesterday. You seem to be talking a lot smoother and more coherent for your age.

I've been thinking about it since yesterday.　I've studied!

”Well, , I studied!

His smooth speech and his ability to remember difficult words are the result of his memory. The words themselves had been memorized for the purpose of training him to be an heir, so all he had to do was combine them.

Surprisingly, the words came out at a rapid pace.

...... I see. That's right. You're right, too.

”......?

Crabbe's face suddenly showed a hint of pity.

Then he grabbed both of Arx's shoulders firmly with his strong hands.

Arx. I won't let your hard work go to waste. I'll take care of the magic.

”Yes, sir. Thank you .......

He replied awkwardly to the serious expression on his face.

It seems that I've misled him somehow. Perhaps I made him think that I was forced to study hard by my family.

Anyway...

(Thank God he's a kind man. ......)

Perhaps because the people around me have become cold, I feel that way deeply.

Now, I think I can handle the matter of magic.

The amount of ...... magic I put into it is something I've turned a blind eye to.
