The day after being attacked by Mr./Ms., negotiating with Shea, and many other things.
I got up at the usual time, had a light breakfast and got dressed, and then headed straight to the training ground, where there were already customers.
I was usually the only one who woke up at such an early hour, so when I approached with my doubts, I found two surprising people there.
「…… Mr./Ms. Urua to Elisha?"
"Good morning!"
"Hi, Usato."
Waiting for them at the training ground first were two people from the Nesha Kingdom, except for Liz.
…… Maybe it was about last night?
I don't think Liz broke it up, but she doesn't seem to be good at hiding things, so I wonder if that's why she noticed.
"Well, what about Liz?"
"Your sister is still in a dream......
After all, it's similar to Bulllin.
When I was wondering what was going on, Mr./Ms. shook her head, wondering if she sensed something by looking at my expression.
"Liz didn't tell me anything, I just guessed that she was with you because of the evidence of her lineage enhancement and the healing of her wounds."
"Ah......"
It's true that the sleeves of Liz's clothes were tattered due to the strengthening of the lineage.
On top of that, if I thought of a healing magic user who could completely heal her wounds, would I be the only one?
"It was last night......
"You don't have to tell me, in fact, I have to apologize for following him without permission."
"I'm sorry sister......"
If that's the case, ...... would be helpful.
I don't want to involve them in this problem.
"There was some fighting last night, but there is no danger of retaliation...... I've helped Liz in some ways, so don't be too angry with her."
"I can't do it because I'm already angry, and even if you forgive me, it doesn't change the fact that I did something selfish and caused trouble."
It may be a little rude, but I was a little surprised by the common sense.
Whether it's a demon lord or a nea, I had an image that people who could handle magic were a little strange, so I was surprised by Mr./Ms. Ulua, who responded very decently except for the impact of the first meeting.
"I don't know what your purpose is, but I can tell you that Liz is following you and keeping her promise to you isn't a bad idea or anything like that."
"I don't want to hide too much from you, but I don't want to involve you who have nothing to do with it."
It was good that the opponent was Shea, but if it was another vindictive demon, it wouldn't have been surprising if Liz and the people around her were targeted.
"Well, that's about it, half of what I'm here for has been accomplished, and now it's the other half."
"Is there anything?"
"As a researcher, I'd like to see you in training, so I came here today to ask if I could take a closer look."
Do you feel the same as Mr./Ms.?
If that's okay with you, I don't mind having you look at it at all.
"Well, if it's a technique that you have to keep secret, ——— you can refuse."
"Oh, no, please take a look at it at all, and if possible, please let me know if there is anything you noticed."
「…… Well let's see! Usato, you may be unaware of it, but you should realize that your words are the biggest provocation for us researchers!!"
"What?"
I tilt my head at Mr./Ms. Urua, who is angry in a strange way.
Next to it, he said, "I'm sorry teacher...... I'm sorry ......," and Elisha apologizes in a familiar gesture.
"Good morning!"
"Good morning!!"
And in the meantime, it seems that Rain and Loa have arrived.
These children are here, and Mr./Ms. and her two attendants will be coming soon, so let's get ready to start training.
●
Rain and Loa's training is still based on the acceleration of magic spending, which is the foundation.
System enhancement is an advanced technology that requires meticulous magical manipulation.
It took me a long time to train myself to self-harm with healing magic, so no matter how bad the training looks, it's an absolutely indispensable training.
Today, in addition to the usual faces, Mr./Ms. Ulua was also participating, and she was observing our training scene alongside Mr./Ms. Aura and two of her attendants, who had the same researcher temperament.
"Mr. Ulua, please tell us your views on the acceleration of the magic rotation."
"It makes sense, but it's too unreasonable to generalize this, and in order to do this, we would first need someone who can perform magic power at the same level as or close to that of Usato."
"I agree with you, and in addition to that, this training will also require subtlety."
"If someone is half-hearted, it will distort the flow of magical power, right?"
『!』
Gash!! and Mr./Ms. who shook hands firmly during our training.
To be honest, I don't mind it because it's helpful for me, but I'm worried that Elisha is next to me with a very tired face.
After that, I also trained Rain to strengthen his lineage———、
"What, what are you pulling ......?"
- I was taken over for the failure of strengthening the system, and when I saw that I had blood bursting from my hand, I was pulled back normally.
In fact, I'm aware that it's a ridiculous training method, so I'll take that evaluation with a grain of salt.
"Huh!!"
"Come on!"
After that, it's time for Loa and Elisha to join hands.
I will not attack from me, but will respond while watching the movements of the two people who boldly attack.
"Haha!!"
Loa sticks out the club with the same step as Claude Mr./Ms..
He brushes the tip of the club lightly with his palm as he dodges the light magic that flies from behind Loa.
If you look into the air, you can see Elisha trying to hold his bow and arrow, looking a little confused, while invisible light magic floats around him.
There is no pursuit from ——— Lore.
Shifting his gaze from Elisha, Loa pulls back the spear I flicked in my hand and tries to reposition it.
"What would you do if you could close the distance here?"
"Uh-huh."
Stepping all the way inside the spear gap, Loa was visibly flustered.
Elisha, who was aiming at him, also began to get confused because Loa was in his line of fire, unable to fire light magic or arrows.
"Let's stop here."
"Yes......"
When I relaxed my stance and said so, the two disappointed replies came in unison.
As I was thinking about the current arrangement, two people came to me, who were still depressed.
"Excuse me, let me put my hands together."
"No, no, it's all right, you don't have to worry about it."
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to my sister and ......."
"Excuse me......
Elisha and Lore are depressed.
These kids have a great sense of responsibility and are worried.
"You really don't have to worry about it."
「…… From Mr./Ms.'s point of view, was there anything that bothered you about our movements?"
At Loa's words, I think as my voice goes out for a moment.
I've never done this kind of coaching before, so I'm not confident, but for the time being, I'm going to say what I'm interested in.
"Is Loa too focused on the immediate attack?"
"Huh......"
「…… Did Claude Mr./Ms. tell you?"
He replied in a small voice, so I asked him about it, and he nodded his head.
Claude Mr./Ms.'s attacks were all connected to the next move without distortion, but Loa hits the attack! !! I'm too conscious to connect to the next one, and I'm taking a breath.
"Maybe the reason why I was stepping on you earlier and panicked is that you've decided in your head that you're going to do this next time."
"Wow......"
It's an exaggeration to say that we don't think ahead, but it's also different to plan an attack until the next one.
"It's not a problem that can be solved by consciousness anymore, you have to learn it with your body through repeated practice."
"I'll do my best......!"
I don't think there are any shortcuts in Claude Mr./Ms.'s school.
In fact, he said that there were many people who were sober and quit. But for that reason, if you master the skills he teaches, you will be able to deal with any opponent.
"Elisha is next."
"Yes."
He turns his gaze from Loa to Elisha.
"I know you're flying so you can't close the distance, but you're too focused on moving."
"Oh, really?"
"Light magic scaffolding, light magic throwing, and shooting arrows, I thought it would be a bit hard for you to do all this at the same time."
I thought it was a battle, but Elisha's movements were a little too step-by-step.
Build a scaffold, leap, shoot arrows, and unleash invisible light magic around you.
The steps are not done simultaneously, but sequentially.
"What would you do if you were Mr./Ms.?"
"Me? I'm a healing wizard."
"What?"
"What?"
I was kind of surprised.
No, I'm a pure healing wizard, right?
"I don't want to sound too grandiose, but for now, I'm going to leave out one of the three actions I mentioned earlier."
"Do you mean to choose one of them?"
"No, I don't know what to say...... Do you use the light magic you generated for the scaffolding to attack? The bow is not for hitting, but for checking, and I focus on the light magic I shoot."
I've had the experience of falling over many times due to lack of magical power, so I thought it would be a bit of a waste to erase the light magic that I used as a foothold.
「…… Oh, I see. So you're optimizing your movements!?"
"Eh, is that going to happen?"
"I'll do my best!! Loa-chan, let's get to training!!"
"Oh, yes!"
I take a breather as I see them off as they head to their voluntary training.
I'm used to training, but I don't know how to teach or teach.
"Thank you Elisha."
Mr./Ms. Ulua, who had been watching me join hands, called out to me.
"Wasn't it superfluous?"
"That's not true...... I'm a researcher, not a warrior. I didn't get to teach him much about combat, so I'm grateful for this guidance."
"I was relieved to hear that."
If you give strange guidance, you will get an extra habit! I was just wondering what I would do if I was told that.
"I got a call from the castle today......
"I guess it's about the second trial."
Does Mr./Ms. also think that it is related to the second trial?
"I can't predict what it's going to be like this time, but I don't think you need to worry too much, okay?"
"Really?"
"At the end of the day, it's an event to entertain the people who gather at the festival, and it's not a place to impose an unreasonable challenge on the brave people gathered from all over the world."
If you ask me, yes.
Maybe the impact of the first trial was so strong that I was a little bracing myself.
I relaxed my shoulders lightly and prepared for training while lightly turning my arms.
"Well, and."
"Oh, what are you going to do?"
"I thought I'd try to practice some tricks."
"Aura, Usato is going to do something again, so come on-"
I'm kind of more reserved than I was at the beginning.
Mr./Ms. and the others, who were talking with the three of them at the edge of the training ground, ran up to us with shining eyes.
As I watched them gather, I moved to the target set up in the training.
"What are you going to do?"
She answers with a wry smile to Mr./Ms. who looks excited.
"I've done a technique called Healing Ranged Bullet before, and I came up with an improved version of that technique."
「…… Eh, when did you come up with the idea?"
"Right now?"
"Whew."
For some reason, a scream like a person who got goosebumps came out of the mouths of Mr./Ms..
The healing ranged bullet is a technique that I devised that allows me to change the direction of the magic bullet only once, as I am not good at operating magic bullets.
…… Well, it's a technique that I haven't had a chance to use at all.
"Wrap the healing afterimage fist in your fist and release it with the momentum of launching."
The principle is the same as that of healing magic bullets. However, the range of the fist that flew with the momentum of the fist thrust out was short, only about 3~5 meters.
The power of the blow that I threw as a test was diminished after 5 meters.
"Here, we will incorporate a remote bullet!" Whew!!"
Shoot an afterimage fist in a direction slightly off the target.
He concentrates on the remnants of magic in the form of a fist that has been directed in the wrong direction, and swings his arm like a hook.
At that moment, the afterimage fist turned in the direction I swung my arm, and it suddenly accelerated to the target as if it were a sideways punch - just bang! With the sound, the afterimage fist explodes at the target.
「…… It's hard to get a sense of distance."
「「……」」
Irregular healing flying fist for medium range.
If I had to name it, it would be a healing hook...... Healing Right Angle Flying Fist...... No, I think I could call it a healing irregular fist.
If you can control magic bullets, you probably don't need to bother wielding your fists like I did, but let's be positive that this is also your personality.

Healing Irregular Fist: A rocket punch that accelerates sharply at a right angle.
By the way, the first appearance of the healing ranged bullet was 180 episodes.
That's all for this update.
