Alice Know About Magic
With that, Captain Sophia dismissed them and then returned with one member of her team following her.
「Thank you for waiting. Also, I’ve brought one of my trusted aides with me. He’s the most reliable person in the unit when it comes to camping. Please put him to good use. 」
「My name is Bran. I’m sorry for the rudeness of my fellow soldiers. After I return to the city, I’m going to discipline all the rude members of my team. Also …. I would like to thank you for not taking the captain’s life. 」
He knelt down and bowed deeply.
He was a serious-looking man in his thirties.
He seems like a decent man.
I wondered why such a decent-looking captain and his men were here, while the rest of the team looked like Yankees.
「He’s one of the guys who came later with me …. I hope you don’t think ill of this guy for doing this」.
I see… he was accompanying the captain.
Perhaps it was because all the decent-looking troops were accompanying the captain that it was such a group of Yankees at that time? It’s amusing.
「If that’s the case, I don’t mind. You must be in a lot of trouble. 」
「As long as you’re not rude to Alice-sama or any of us, I don’t have any particular complaints either.」
「I don’t mind either」
But there was one thing I had forgotten as I came here.
It was a magic spell that was ready to be activated, but had been left unattended, the one which supposed to blow up the area earlier.
There is something about the magical power that is prepared for the magic activation that has been raging inside me since a while ago.
I have no idea what’s going on, but I know for certain that it’s not good.
「Speaking of that, the magic that I have prepared before is ready to activate, I have a feeling it’s going to be bad if I don’t do something about it soon」
「…. Hmm…It seems that the magic is on the verge of outburst. What about releasing it in that area? 」
After Hedera checked it, It seemed to be on the verge of becoming something called a magic outburst.
The magic must be going out of control.
I don’t know what’s that really mean, but I guess it would be bad if it went out of control.
But if you want to release the magic around, this magic is a magic that 「burn up and blow away a wide area without a trace」.
I don’t like the idea to just throw it carelessly.
After all, we were near a busy road.
Now that I think about it, I don’t even know how wide the affected area is.
「Isn’t it like we’re destroying nature for no reason? ….. I think it’ll be better if I just create a dimensional space and let it go in there. 」
I’m going to make a dust shoot of magic into an empty dimensional space.
It’s environmentally friendly.
「I’d like to see that」
「Okay」
「Then I’ll go to make the house for us」
As Hedera said this and went off with Schwartz, I created a suitably large and sturdy dimensional space and opened a gate in front of me to connect to it.
It’s like a doorway to anywhere.
There is a hole in the space in front of me, and on the other side of it is an endless white space.
It is similar to the white place where God was.
「…. What? What’s.. this.. magic!? 」
「I used time-space magic to create a time and space system different from this world, and then created a space there to connect it to this place. Dimensional space for short」
「Ehh …. what in the world is …. 」.
「Come on, you guys. We’ll see some amazing magic. 」
Edilua pulled me and then, even though confused, Captain Sophia and Bran follow me into the other space with dread.
After confirming that all four of us had entered the other space, I closed the gate that connected us, and immediately launched the spell which “burn and blow up a wide area without a trace” in a faraway place.
「Then please stay back. 『Comet of Destruction』」
And… wuzzz! When I did that, a ridiculously huge red magic circle with a diameter of about three kilometers appeared in the sky above the remote location (although there is no sky in this space).
As soon as it shattered, a spherical distortion of space with the same diameter as the magic circle appeared.
It looked like a huge shimmering flame floating in the sky.
It’s very hard to tell because this space itself is all white, but it’s shimmering and distorting the space on the surface.
The next moment after the appearance of such a thing, the sphere fell to the ground and shattered, spreading a tremendous roar, blast, and hot flames all around.
It looked like a transparent meteorite that had fallen and crashed into the ground.
Terrifying.
The explosion quickly converged towards the center, and everything disappeared without a trace.
It was an instantaneous event.
「Is it over already? I don’t know, it’s not very impressive in this empty space」.
Edilua, who looked a little unhappy, had a point.
It’s hard to tell how far away it is because it’s all white and empty. It would be better if it have a background or something.
Next time, I’ll make something and use this as a place to test my magic.
While I was thinking about this, Captain Sophia and Agent Bran were in the middle of a fuss.
「Wha!? Wwwwwha… What!!! What the hell was that?」
「Aaa, am I dreaming or something…. 」
I was surprised, that was not something you would expect from a resident of the magical world.
They are strange people.
Isn’t seeing magic an everyday occurrence? When I asked them, they said they had never seen magic like that before.
「It’s a primordial magic, a magic unique to the seventh rank, 『Comet of Destruction』 a magic that “burn and blow up a wide area without a trace”. That’s what I remember.」
「Pri – primordial magic! moreover seventh rank,….. Isn’t that magic from myths and fairy tales …. ?」
「That magic earlier …. for sure? 」
What are you talking about when you live in this world of myths and fairy tales ….?
From my point of view, this world itself is like a fairy tale.
「That’s right. Do you want to see it again? 」
「Let’s try something more flashy this time.」
Flashier.
Because it was hard to tell what was going on in the last one.
It’s becoming more and more like an unveiling of my magic, but it’s just as well because I couldn’t try 「flashy」 like in the forest where Edilua was.
I feel bad for the forest as i imagined how it suddenly disappear again.
「This is flashy one …. Great Forest of Absolute Zero – Frost Sanctuary」
I chose a unique magic that seemed flashy just from the description and activated it.
Wuzzzz! And then a huge magic circle appeared in front of me again. This time, it was a beautiful, shining blue magic circle about 300 meters in diameter covering the surface.
Soon it faded and disappeared, and fine ice sparkles appeared in the air where the magic circle had been.
I had never seen anything like it, but it looked like ice dust. Sparkling and shimmering, it was very beautiful.
As they drifted through the air, they gradually fell to the ground, and the ground began to freeze from the edge where the crystals had fallen.
Soon the ground was covered with clear blue ice, and soon the ice was forming grass, flowers, and trees.
The end result was a terrifyingly beautiful, glowing blue nature.
Insects and animals made of ice were playing together, and it was truly worthy of being called a sanctuary.
This is amazing.
It’s beautiful, and it’s very flashy.
「It is said to be an impenetrable sanctuary that freezes the moment anyone who has the intention of harming the person who invokes the magic steps into it. Primordial magic of the ninth rank」
「Wow, this is beautiful. Hey, let’s see some more Alice!」
「No problem. This one also looks fancy …. Hammer of Redemption-Thor’s Atonement」
I was starting to have some fun, so I unleashed one flashy magic after another.
I feel refreshed when I invoke fancy magic.
After all, it’s powerful to watch, and it makes me feel good to cast such magic.
I feel like I’ve found a new pastime and a way to relieve stress.
「Ni, ninth rank!? This kind of magic in this instant! A series of shots without even chanting! 」
「 …. What? what’s the matter?」
「Ca- Captain! What in the world is that person! 」
「…. I don’t know either」
I ignored the captain and her men who were exchanging fusses, and continued to try out a variety of flashy-looking magic in an empty space.
