Chapter 30 Strongest Sage, Prevents Queer Yells
"Look carefully, this is my new weapon!"
Guyzar-sensei drew the sword on his back and pointed it at a target .
And then-- .
"Nunn!"
A small fireball shot out of the tip of his sword along with Guyzar-sensei's yell .
The target only shook, but Guyzar-sensei didn't mind it .
"Nunn! Nunn! Nunn!"
Small fireballs shot out of the sword's tip in rapid succession and the target got destroyed on the fourth shot .
After seeing that, Guyzar-sensei changed his target .
"Nunn! Nunn! Nunn! Nunn!"
The target this time also broke after four shots .
Guyzar-sensei's crest is the Third Crest .
The Third Crest doesn't have much power, but it has a high rapid-fire rate .
And with training that rapid fire brings about brutal firepower .
It's still not as strong as the Fourth Crest that's specialized in close-quarter combat, but it's a highly reliable crest in a group battle .
Because you can raise the overall firepower simply by bringing more users .
"Wasn't Guyzar-sensei supposed to be hardly able to use magic?"
"That sensei, with magic . . . . I mean, don't you think he's strong at it?"
"That target is the fifth target right? They seemed weak during Mathias's demonstration, but breaking a fifth target in four shots means that the magic is as powerful as the upper low class magic . . . . "
"If Guyzar-sensei can do it, I think I can do it too!"
Seeing a teacher who was obviously a swordman type used chantless magic ended up encouraging the students .
I was a bit dissatisfied since even the magic I used should be usable for Fourth Crest bearers if they just trained for a short while, but I guess having the usefulness of chantless magic known is a good enough result .
The magic earlier should be regarded as common in only several months .
"By the way, Guyzar-sensei only started training chantless magic yesterday, mind you . When a teacher who originally could use magic trained on it, it would look like this . "
And then one of the magic-type teachers used a magic, knocking down two targets .
"Awesome . That was as powerful as a mid-class magic . . . . "
That's quite some power, even if that teacher has the Second Crest (the crest has no special characteristic at first, but it can shoot powerful magic once you train it . )
I wonder if it was because his mana was abused by habitual uses of chant magic . It seems this school's instructors originally have well trained mana with them .
I dunno what's this mid-class magic stuff about though .
"Sensei! Are all of the teachers able to use chantless magic!?"
At one of the students' question, I felt that the teachers' atmosphere froze for an instant .
And then the teachers look at each other and put on apologetic looks on their faces .
"No . To tell you truth, most of the swordsmanship teachers can't do it yet, and only a third of magic teachers are able to . It appears that correcting your longtime habit is really hard after all . . . . "
The mood in the schoolyard darkened .
Looks like changing their way after using chant magic for dozens of years isn't so simple after all .
However, the mood completely turns around with the next few words from the teacher .
"Alright . Let's start the chantless training for real now . Stand before each targets . Can every one of you use fire arrow? Even though you're Class A, there's one who aspires to be a swordsman if I'm not mistaken . . . . "
"Yes! I want to be a swordsman, but I can use fire arroow!"
Alma raised her hand while saying that .
Apparently, the sole swordsman participant was Alma .
She's with Ruli like usual, she's sticking close to her .
"Then let's start with learning the movement of mana . Everyone, shoot a fire arrow at the target and--"
And then a magic lecture similar to the one I taught my elder brother Reich began .
About 10 minutes later .
"Ooh, the magic came out! I did it!"
Some students have successfully grasped the sensation of mana and invoked chantless magic .
The first one who did was Alma .
"Look look! Nunn! Nunn!"
Alma readied her sword, pointed it toward the target and shot fireballs . The target broke with two fireballs .
Looks like the magic of Alma who has the Second Crest is already more powerful than Guyzar-sensei's .
However-- .
"Hey, Alma . "
"What do you think? That was my magic!"
"You're doing well . . . . But there's no need to mimic that yell you know . "
"Eh? . . . Ah"
It seems she didn't notice .
Good thing I pointed it out before it was too late . I don't wanna hear 『Nunn!』 buzzing in the battlefield in place of chanting .
Well, I'm just glad that the propagation of proper magic is going smoothly .
If I were in my past life, I would catch some random magic combatant, teach them immortality magic and various stuff and rear them for several hundreds years into a magic combatant ready to fight space monsters in a party with me, thus there would be no need to do all this, but--
At the present state, forget about expecting some powerful magic combatant to appear, humanity might get wiped out first instead .
I'd like to popularize at least the basic of chantless magic to prevent that from happening .
