Chapter 53

Trying to shake off his gloomy thoughts, he picked up the spear and stared at it blankly.

There was something that slightly bothered him.

He had heard that in the past, wind mages could fly in the sky.

Even when he tried to imagine it in the simulator, it didn't work. After all, this simulator, except for divine magic, specializes in wind magic, which focuses on moving air.

This means there should be a way to bypass the simulator.

The standard method for this kind of thing is to directly manipulate the app.

Hmm? He suddenly realized. Multiplication, that's what the 'Sage' teacher mentioned, right?

Just to be safe, he opened the window and confirmed that no one was around.

He imagined the uncompressed air, just the air that was there.

"Attribute: Wind. Pressure defined. Shape: A cone with a radius of 5mm and a height of 1cm. Fixed 10cm in front of the right index finger. Rotate the cone and shoot it forward, speed 700 km/h. Execute."

Nothing happened. Hmm. Was that correct? He was prepared for an excessive return if it failed.

He thought about the same image again.

This time, he increased the speed by 100 times.

"Attribute: Wind. Pressure defined. Shape: A cone with a radius of 5mm and a height of 1cm. Fixed 10cm in front of the right index finger. Rotate the cone and shoot it forward, speed 70,000 km/h. Execute."

Still nothing happened.

Just to be safe, he decided to try one more level.

He used the same image and increased the speed by another 100 times.

"Attribute: Wind. Pressure defined. Shape: A cone with a radius of 5mm and a height of 1cm. Fixed 10cm in front of the right index finger. Rotate the cone and shoot it forward, speed 7,000,000 km/h. Execute."

Still nothing happened. No excessive return either.

In short, if the pressure definition is 0, no matter how much you increase the speed, no effect will occur.

Got it. Multiplication. He had thought there was something there unless the person who could fly had an abnormally high proficiency.

Using magic, you can see, but your proficiency doesn't increase, and you immediately get an excessive return.

It didn't make sense that someone could fly in such a world.

He picked up a piece of fabric from the desk.

It was dangerous, so he decided to try a small-scale test.

He imagined a gentle breeze blowing from behind the fabric.

"Attribute: Wind. Pressure defined. Shape: Same as the fabric. Fixed to the fabric. Fixed in place, no speed. Execute."

The moment he spoke, the fabric fluttered as if blown by the wind and settled.

"The person who could fly, either a fool or a genius. They really found a loophole in the system."

He muttered to himself while thinking about the current result.

Surely, when creating the system for the magic, they focused too much on the original source.

When the speed is multiplied by 0, the pressure definition becomes abnormal. No excessive return occurs no matter how many times. It's hard to imagine such a scenario.

The wind mage who could fly probably rode on a board or something, using a continuous spell to generate strong winds, allowing them to float.

If you imagine a typhoon-level wind, it should be possible to lift one person. He had seen a large tree flying in the sky during a typhoon in Okinawa.

I wonder how other spells work. Water spells have this hole sealed. The parameters are mass and temperature, but if the mass is 0, there's no object to change the temperature.

Earth spells have mass and speed as parameters, so there's a possibility of a hole. Okay. I'll ask Pardis tomorrow. I'll ask Watys about fire magic parameters when I meet him.

By the way, I haven't heard the syntax for water magic. I'll ask about that tomorrow as well.

I'll add it to my to-do list.

[ ] Ask Pardis about the limitations of earth and the syntax of water magic.

[ ] Ask Watys about the parameters of fire magic.

Okay. That's about it.

While he was thinking about these things, he heard a knock.

Riz was standing there, having finished her training.

"Looks a bit happy."

"Really?"

She seemed to have something she wanted to say.

"Did something happen?"

"Um, well..."

Her cheeks were slightly flushed.

"Maybe, just a little, I want to..."

She mumbled while looking down.

"That might be difficult."

"Why?"

"Riz, your voice is a bit loud."

"…Stupid, stupid. Stupid, stupid."

She hit him with considerable force. It hurt. It hurt.

But he thought that such moments could heal his heart, remembering how he felt gloomy when thinking about Japan earlier.
