Ataru, who had been ordered to observe from a short distance away, watched as Caro practiced her magic under the guidance of Flamphilia.

 

“Yes, you need to be more imaginative.”

 

Apparently the magic of the flaming arrows was not suitable for Caro, so she was now practicing wind arrows.
It matched the attributes of the magic that Caro possessed, and it also matched the attributes of the wand she had been given.
The light that resided in the tip was stronger than before.

 

“Fly, 【Arrow of Wind】!”

 

Caro's magic had become stable and was hitting the target.
Every time she fired her magic, a soft breeze danced around her.

 

“Yes, it's good!”

 

Franphilia also gave her approval to the magic, as the results of her practice were showing little by little.

 

“Thank you! Franphilia-sensei!”

 

Every time the magic started to work, Caro's atmosphere became filled with joy and excitement.

 

And during the one-on-one lessons, Caro had started to call Franphilia her sensei.

 

“Hmmm, magic is quite interesting.
Is it suited to different people?”

 

Ataru, who had been observing the exchange between the two, looked convinced when he saw the difference between the flaming arrow and the wind arrow that Caro had used.

 

“Ataru-sama seems to have a little bit of magic power.
In fact, it seems to be much stronger than Franphilia-sama's.”

 

The one who called out from behind him was Sebeus with a gentle smile on his face.

 

“Hmm? Yeah, I guess so.
According to Franphilia, my imagery is also powerful.”

 

Ataru was surprised to see him nearby before he knew it, but he replied while looking at the target he had set on fire.

 

“Well, you were told to observe for that reason …….
If you would like, you can try to train with me.
I used to be an adventurer and used magic as well.”

 

Ataru, who had been at a loss for words at the time, nodded broadly at the suggestion of Sebeus, who had a gentlemanly smile on his face.

 

“I'd appreciate it very much if you'd do that.
I'm getting bored of just sitting around.”

 

“Yes, sir.
I'll get permission from Franphilia-sama to use magic then.”

 

While saying so, Sebeus went to the two who were training and whispered to Franphilia in secret.

 

Franphilia pondered for a while, but then decided to leave it to Sebeus and easily gave her permission.

 

“Thank you for your patience.
Now that we have permission from Franphilia-sama, you can train with me.”

 

With that, they moved to a place away from Caro and Franphilia.

 

“Here will be fine.
First of all, I would like to confirm that ……
the first time you used the flaming arrow, Ataru-sama, you burned the dummy, correct?”

 

Sebeus pointed to the wreckage of the target Ataru had just burned up, and Ataru nodded in confirmation.

 

“You're right.
The first time Caro tried it, she fell in the middle, so I let loose with a strong image.
And that's how it ended up.”

 

“Mm-hmm, I see.
Ataru-sama has a talent as a magician, or perhaps he has a background in magic.
It's not that he is skilled in the use of magic, but rather that he already has a clear image of magic.”

 

Sebeus prediction had been correct.
In Ataru's original world, there were so many different ways to capture images of magic and special skills that he was able to form images without resistance and in a straightforward manner.

 

“Well, that may be the case.
Where I come from, there have been a lot of stories like that, so I think it's normal to have images even if you've never learned them.”

 

Sebeus seemed to accept this story.

 

“I see, in that case it would be better to talk about how to use magic effectively, not how to release it.
Please wait a moment while I go prepare.”

 

Sebeus, who had made a plan in his head, walked quickly into the house with Ataru waiting for him.

After a while, he returns with a tub of water.
Ataru, who couldn't imagine what he was going to do, tilted his head.

 

“Now then, let's use this.”

 

He placed the tub on a table in the garden and placed a cup next to it.

 

“……
What's this?”

 

“Well, you'll just have to wait and see.”

 

Sebeus concentrated his magic power to demonstrate the answer to Ataru's question, who couldn't wait any longer.

 

Then a ball of water about a size smaller than a fist floats up from the water in the tub with a pale light as if it were being sucked in.
The wavering ball of water then slowly moved toward the cup.
As it was led inside, it made a chopping sound and filled the cup with water.

 

“Well, I guess that's it.
Ataru-sama, I'm going to ask you to do the same thing now.
This is an exercise in controlling magic power.
I'll ask you to control the size of the ball of water, move it while keeping it in place, and fill the cup without spilling it.
You will be doing all of these things at the same time.”

 

After explaining everything, Sebeus moved to the side and asked Ataru to do the same thing now.

 

“Let's give it a try.”

 

Ataru rolled up his sleeves and began to train, eager to finally be able to use magic.

 

“Here we go.”

 

With his wand in hand, he created a ball of water and moved it into the cup.
In words, it was a simple task, but it was extremely difficult for Ataru.

 

First of all, it was difficult to adjust the size of the water ball.
If the task had been to pump up all the water in the pond, Ataru might have been able to do it immediately.

 

However, the fine adjustment of the amount of water required a very delicate control that could not be done with a rough manipulation of magic power.

 

This training alone would take up Ataru's entire training time for the day.

 

Caro joined him in the middle of the training, but contrary to Ataru, Caro was able to make very small balls, but it was difficult to make them big enough to fill a cup.

 

“Hmm, I see you two have different challenges.”

 

Smiling and nodding, Sebeus assessed the two of them.
It was an assessment that had a touch of harshness in its gentle smile.

 

“But you're both very good at it.
This magic control is quite a difficult exercise, so even if you can't do it right away, I'm sure you'll be able to do it over time.”

 

Franphilia followed up with the two of them, who were a little down on their shoulders after finding each other's problems.

 

Their guiding style was truly a combination of candy and a whip.[1]

 

“Well, it's not going to be easy.
I think I'm going to leave now, when should I come back?”

 

But they still wanted to learn it somehow, and they were eager to train again.

 

“Eh, yes, I guess so.
……
Tomorrow then?”

 

Ataru was surprised to find that the scheduled date was closer than he had expected, even though it was him who had asked for it.

 

“Tomorrow? I'm fine over here, but are you okay with guildmaster work and stuff over there?”

 

Caro, whose ears were drooping with anxiety, nodded repeatedly next to Ataru.
The two of them felt bad about holding the person in charge of the position for several days at their convenience.
They were not so selfish as to push others around for their own purposes.

 

“That's right,……,”

 

Franphilia smiled as if to cover up the fact that she had said it on the spur of the moment, and inwardly she was a little disappointed that she couldn't skip work.

 

“I'll accompany you on your training if you give me your permission.”

 

“Really?”

 

“Please!”

 

The two of them were excited by Sebeus unexpected proposal.
However, the problem was whether they could get permission from Franphilia, Sebeus master.
In the eyes of the three of them, Franphilia held her glasses as if troubled.

 

She wanted to teach them herself, since she was the one who had been asked, but she knew that it would be selfish of her not to give her permission here.

 

“Huh.
……
I understand.
As long as there is no pressing matter here, Sebeus will be free every afternoon until the two of you have completed your training, so please accompany them in their training.”

 

With a sigh, Franphilia broke down and decided to let Sebeus handle the rest.
