Level 1 Strongest Sage ~

Book 12: Chapter 10: The Magic of This World (3/3)

Halt-sama told me that he wanted to use Lightning Magic.

In order to use the lightning attribute magic, multiple attribute magic had to be combined and activated. It is an advanced form of magic known as fusion magic.

One has to feel the mana within himself in order to use magic, and then release that outside his body.

It would take a person a several weeks to a few months before he could wield magic, and thats already considered fast. For people who didnt affinity for magic, it would take several years, but

Halt-sama already accomplished this in just a few seconds.

Its Halt-sama were talking about, so I already anticipated it. It was mostly my intuition doing its job.

However, I also wanted to see him cast lightning magic, which is known as the strongest attack magic there is out there.

After all, its not normal for a 5 year old child to use lightning magic, isnt it?

The person Im waiting for isnt ordinary, either.

The stranger Halt-sama is, the higher the chance that he is the reincarnation of the person Im waiting for.

Thats why I also wanted to let Halt-sama use lightning attribute magic.

Besides

I also want to see Tina use it. You can, right? Lightning Magic?

He told me such a thing.

I dont have a choice but to grant his wish, do I?

Alright, let me show you an example.

There are no heroes from the other world now, so let me show you the magic that the strongest magical swordsman of this world could cast!

Magic is classified into different levels in this world, depending on the power, mana consumed, scope of their effect, namely: low level, intermediate level, high or advanced level, supreme level and ultimate level.

There are also other countries who dont use low level or intermediate level. They differentiate it with names such as low grade and mid grade.

The transmigrators and reincarnators who came from the other world, as well as their descendants, and the pure-blooded inhabitants of this world who achieving the utmost limit of their magic by devoting themselves to studying their abilities, could cast spells that are several times more powerful than the supreme magic in exchange for enormous amounts of mana.

That is ultimate magic.

My hair is black in short, I am also one descended from the heroes of the other world.

People with black hair are extremely rare in this world. This hair color is also proof that one possesses the blood of the otherworld heroes.

However, there are also cases of atavism, when a black-haired child is suddenly born into a family of blonde people

In that case, the Silveray family, whose members were all black-haired, must have a pretty pure lineage of heroes.

Halt-sama also possesses jet-black hair.

Oh, weve gone off topic.

To summarize, I am a person descended from the heroes and is the strongest magical swordsman in this world, so its only natural that I could also cast the ultimate level of lighting magic.

Even without chanting.

Normally, ultimate level magic spells would only be invoked by chanting.

The ability to forego chanting while casting ultimate magic is actually one of my secret prides.

However, I am Halt-samas magic instructor.

Besides, even if I omit the chant and just cast the ultimate magic spell, Halt-sama wouldnt be able to comprehend just how great of a feat that is.

And so, I decided to recite the ultimate magic spell chant that I hadnt used for a long time. I didnt forget to put up a magic barrier around Halt-sama, of course. I would absolutely never let my spell harm him in any way.

The preparations is now complete.

Ultimate Thunder!

I recited the entire chant, so my control of the spell was perfect.

With the range and power I set, the ultimate lightning spell vaporized the target.

It ended up destroying a little bit of the floor.

I could restore it easily with earth magic, so there shouldnt be any problems.

So how was it, Halt-sama? Was I cool enough?

Y-Youre amazing, Tina!! Youre super cool!!

Fufufu, I earned praise from Halt-sama.

His eyes were sparkling.

Halt-sama probably wanted to try this magic for himself.

Unfortunately, it is different from Fire Lance that I taught him yesterday; he wont be able to cast this in a day.

It also took me several years of training before I was able to cast it. There is no other way but to raise his level first, and increase his mana capacity.

However, if its Thunder Lance, a much weaker, basic Lightning Magic, then he should be able to cast it soon enough.

Well then, Halt-sama, let us begin with the Lightning Magic practice.

Let us first start with creating Ice Magic from Water Magic and Wind Magic.

Yes! Please take care of me, Teacher Tina!

Thats a great response.

The degree of difficulty is quite high when creating ice with magic, but Since its Halt-sama, hell probably be able to handle it.

Hmmm, like this?

A-As expected.

He did it.

However, the next step would be a problem. He must pulverize the ice he created, imagine them rubbing together

Ah, I did it!

Eh

His entire body was shining with sparks.

Halt-sama had wrapped himself in lightning.

Halt-sama activated the advanced level of Lightning Magic, which imparts lightning to the body and activating the muscles to increase attack power and improve reaction speed.

...

Hey, Tina. Is this alright?

Alright?...you say

Theres no way it would be alright.

What are you doing!?

How can you cast advanced level magic as if its something normal? You just started using magic yesterday, right?

Is it because of that?

I got carried away and used ultimate magic, so youre thinking this much is fine with my spell as the example?

...........

H-Hey, Tina?

I continued staring at Halt-sama without a word.

ErW-whoa

Halt-sama deliberately turned his spell into a failure..

Too late.

Everythings too late.

The spell that Halt-sama casted was the same specialty spell of the Guardian Hero the person who went on a journey with me to save the world it was a body fortifying magic, known as magic suit.

Hero-sama named it so because it looked like the spell clothed the caster.

He could also use normal body strengthening magic spells, but he was particularly excellent in combat while clad in a magic suit of lightning and wind in addition to those.

This magic suit spell was a formula that he devised, and he got hisideas from the manga and movie from his previous world,

Halt-sama perfectly conjured that spell.

...Guardian Hero-sama

I tried coquettishly saying Im already aware of it, thinking that Halt-sama would react, but

Eh. W-What?

I didnt get the reaction I was waiting for.

Even his mana flow remained unperturbed.

It didnt seem like he was lying.

Then perhaps, he really is someone different?

No, theres no way that is true.

Impossible.

Halt-samas mana wavelength is the same as Guardian Hero-sama.

He could even conjure the magic that Hero-sama used. This is only the second day since he, a five-year old child, started learning magic, and yet he already used the same thing as Hero-sama.

Its highly probable that Halt-sama is the reincarnation of the Guardian Hero.

Did he lose his memory?

Please hurry up and remember me.

Even so, theres nothing I can do but wait.

Halt-sama, thats amazing. Did you know, the magic you just casted is the same one that Hero-sama used in the past.

H-HehReally?

Yes. Indeed, Halt-sama has the potential to wield magic. Please continue doing your best to study magic just like this!

Today marks the day when I started the Halt-sama Strengthening Plan that I had been thinking about for a long time. Something might happen if Halt-sama becomes powerful enough to reach max level.

Guardian Hero-sama had beaten the hero who killed the Demon King in a few seconds black and blue. He was called a guardian a name that obviously implied excellence in defense but even so, he was also the strongest hero in the world if we based it on his attacking power as well.

Thats my premise for thinking that something might change if I were to make Halt-sama the most powerful in the world.

I dont have any sort of evidence.

Its just a hunch.

However, I think it would be far more meaningful to do that instead of just waiting for Halt-sama to remember me.

Alright, lets do this!
