Chapter 84 (1/2)
—A clue to the Hero Su Ceremony is in the Sadrius AllianceSuiht himTherefore, he, Fel northwest across the continent from the capital of the Nelfila Empire, Filas Filia, towards the Sardius Alliance
The horse drawn coach they ride in joltsPulling them, however, is not a horse, but a creature with enor as an elephant, it's an animal known as a cow[1]
—Paying the disturbance no i Suiives a lecture on ic to Felmenia and LilianaOn the floor are soic, sits behind Suimei where she hums to herself as she polishes her sword
”—With that covered, are you fine withon?”
Felmenia says, ”Yes”
Liliana says, ”I am, ready”
Suiins of y reduces the a it more efficientIntricate procedures are siesturesLong chants have their coed and shortenedDifficult chants are replaced with gesturesEssential complex movements are replaced with incantations”He pauses for a ic and I've optiers creates a phenomena”
Felers as Suimei pauses”You mean this”
Suiht impact that follows lifts the paper at his feet into the air”You'll be surprised at how easy it is once you use it”
Felic is much si to invoke the elements”
Liliana frowns as she tilts her headShe's still not accustoic that overturns her entrenched coeShe says, ”I'ic like, that so easily runs contrary to, this world's principles”Chanting is taught to be an undisputed lawFor soy to even be considered is impossible
”My coinally needed to be chanted to create a phenoevokes the chant which allows for the same phenomena to occur”
Felmenia and Liliana take notes on Suiic is si what's indispensable into a gestureThis allows for the invocation of y acceleratesprocedures”
Liliana says, ”Sui, work?”
”Well, let's say you have to chant a spell five uy, two of those five esture you can perfor your chant—”
”So the, chant is shortened by, two minutes”
”CorrectA second advantage is that it allows you to wield ic in situations where your actions are restricted”
Felh out, ”Hoo…” in admiration
Felmenia then says, ”Suiy reduces casting time?”
”Yeah, that's right”
Liliana says, ”What does, Felmenia mean?”
”According totiicSubstituting the chant with a gesture won't change the essence of the spell”
”I see…”
Suimei is astounded by Felmenia's power of co this to her, yet she already grasped itHer title of being a genius e is well deserved”Well, it's a skill that dates back rew in importance as a method to captivate the masses and parliamentIt became embedded in politics and was used as a tool to improve societyBut speeches were more than just discourses of enunciation and performanceA different and equally important skillset was also developedAny ideas?”
Liliana says, ”The ability to, memorize the contents spoken?”
”You guess itMnemonics were created in order to accurately pull out the contents of a speech from memory”
Many are unable to see the connection betweenfrom the expression on Felmenia and Liliana, they haven't pinned down the connection eitherSui while walking, you'll find that recalling the information is easier while inwill be easier by perfor to where you memorized it?”
Felmenia says, ”Ah, I am familiar with that concept”
”People often say they lack the memory for memorization, but the brain isn't the only place memory is storedAfter all, aren't people able to s unconsciously?This isn't a si unable to remember itIn other words, the action associated with theit”
Sui explanation”Anyway, that mnePut short, inforh actionThat saved information can be invoked—”
Felestures, hand motions, and the like instead of with an incantationThat invocation, however, is dependent on the assu the spell is stored within your head, correct?”
Suiic directly beco as the key actions to draw out the memory are performed with flawless execution
Lilianaoutrageous”
”That very well ht be the case, but that theory stretches all the way back to the iicThe considerable amount of research conducted since then has been completed”
Liliana voices her disbelief with a groan, ”Muu…”
Her difficulty in accepting Suiic can be cast through only remembrance is an extre the spell ends within the casterIt also doesn't grant the opportunity for a demonstration
That's why Suimei adds, ”We back up our claiy, mysterious vectors, mysterious laws, the various substances outside the human realm of perception; we exist to dispel those [Sacred mysteries]…That which I touch I becomes comprehensible”
Suimei uses that final persuasion towards Liliana to enter the conclusion of his lecture”By sorting and substituting theseconcepts such as Notariko[2], Temurah[3], and Gematria[4], I am able to conduct entire rituals on ical techniqueAny questions?”
Liliana raises her hand, ”Your ic circles…I would like to, hear how you abruptly conjure, those”
”Sorry, let's save that for next tiic circles is best left until after liturgy”
”How, regrettable”
Liliana's despondent tone makes Suimei wonder, Was she that interested?
He hands out the sheets of paper while saying, ”Therefore, I've prepared a test of fill in the blank probleical technique, explanations revolve around moth eaten clothes[5]”
Felmenia says, ”Suimei-dono, I believe actual practice is more fruitful at tiree that we should practice iy into our spell craft…?”
”That's true, but can you find a place to practice in here?We need a suitable location for that, and such a place isn't so I can easily prepare here”
Felht…”
Testing the theory to get a feel of it is correctTo that perspective, Sui you the theory in detail would let you understand it faster…”His head droops as he adds, ”Teaching others sure is difficult”
Having never officially taken a disciple before, teaching is new experience for hi can already use ic so his role is ardless, he's still teachingthe difficult moments that will arise here and thereFor that reason, he's having them express their opinions
Sui this for nowOne way or another, I'll come up with a way to let you practice”
Felmenia says, ”I understand”
Liliana rim expression as she holds up a sheet of paper”To treat such clean, paper as disposable, is wasteful…”She's co paperUnlike his world which has undergone the industrial revolution, paper here is a precious resourceMechanized paperproduction lines do not exist
So, this is another setback resulting froic
Magic serves as this world's axisParch down ic circles and incantationsTherefore, instead of the inexpensive paper production line being developed, parchment became common place
Felin their tests and Suimei spins around in his seat to face Lefille”That's that”
”Taking a break?”
”Yeah, I'er do you think it'll take?”
