Chapter 13

I will translate the provided text into English, maintaining the original structure and formatting:

---

While cherry blossoms petals danced in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of promise written there.

---

Speaking of magic and language understanding, I have edited them m(_ _)m

Although fragmentary, I understood the situation of this world and especially this country.

First, about this world, as the god said, it seems to be called the Orsion Continent.

And it consists of over 80 countries that have repeatedly split and merged.

Next, about the races, there are humans, who are the most numerous; beastmen, who excel in physical abilities; dwarves, who excel in mining and metalworking; and elves, who excel in magic.

Just as there are different types of humans, each race has various characteristics.

Some countries coexist with other races, while others are exclusive to their own race.

As for this country, it seems to be called the Kingdom of Pornesia.

It is located in the northeast of the continent and has a sea to the east.

In terms of size, it is medium-small, and in terms of population, it is large-small.

In other words, it is a weak and small country.

I wanted to read more, but it was immediately taken away, and I couldn't read any further, so my knowledge is limited to this extent.

So, I thought of a plan.

Simply put, it was to never let go of the book and bring it back to my bed.

Even if they tried to take it, I would hold it tightly with both hands and feet.

Then, they seemed to give up and carried me along with the book back to my bed.

(Hahaha! What a great idea~)

I started reading the book in bed with a cheerful attitude.

By the way, thanks to the Extra Skill, the writing in the book entered my head as smoothly as if I were reading a Japanese book.

The first book I brought back was, of course, about magic.

The title is, "Magic for Beginners

—Everything from Level 1 to Level 3—"

(Since I haven't been taught the alphabet yet.)

I flipped through the pages, pretending I couldn't read and was just touching them, and tried to find out how to use magic.

**About Magic**

Magic is a technique that we humans have developed to fight against monsters and unknown enemies.

To use magic, the most important thing is talent, which we call magical talent.

There are six types of magical talent: fire, water, earth, wind, light, and darkness.

This talent is a lifelong trait, and there has been no confirmed case of someone acquiring magical talent later in life up to the present.

Those who possess magical talent are called mages or wizards, and those who have two or more types of magical talent and can combine them are called sorcerers.

However, to be a sorcerer, one must have at least two types of magical talent at level 4 or higher, which is not covered in this book.

To use magic, MP (magic points) is required, but since it is invisible, it is important to go to the Magic Guild and have your magic power, or MP, measured with a paid appraisal stone.

However, after a few visits, you will get a feel for how much MP you have left.

**Using Magic**

No special training is required to use magic.

First, I recommend starting with support magic on objects (the type of object depends on the magic, so refer to the text).

Starting with attack magic is very dangerous because it is hard to control the power.

Try casting support magic on objects and feel the difference before and after to adjust the amount of magic power you pour into the spell.

The power and range of magic depend on the amount of magic power you pour into it.

In theory, if you had infinite MP, you could cast magic across the entire continent.

The most important things in using magic are the concentration to refine your magic power (MP) and the pitch of the incantation.

Level 1 magic requires little magic power and has a short casting time, so it can be used even in close combat.

However, as the level of magic increases, it requires a large amount of magic power and a long casting time, making it difficult to cast even while riding a horse.

However, this is not covered in this book, so just keep it in mind for now.

This book contains all the magic from level 1 to level 3 that the Magic Guild currently knows.

I sincerely hope you study diligently and become a fine mage.

(......The introduction is so long!!

About magic!

I mean, it was incredibly helpful, but it's so long!

It goes beyond the scope of "about magic"!

It ends up being more like an afterword!

This person is definitely bad at speaking...

Well, I can tell this person really loves magic, so it's fine...

But, do I need to get the pitch right...?

I'm tone-deaf...)

After that, it says it's easier to chant like singing.

(I don't get it, I was seriously singing and was told to leave if I was going to joke around! Don't underestimate my tone-deafness!)

I recalled my past trauma and felt like holding my head.

I pulled myself together and decided to try using magic.

(Okay, let's try the Small Attack from fire magic: a spell that slightly increases attack power.

What...?

Huh?

Do I need to cut something with a sword to see the effect?!

Pass... No, wait, a slight increase in attack power means an increase in STR, right?

Then I can cast it on myself!

I have the Divine Eye, so I can clearly see how much my STR has increased.

Okay! Small Attack!)

...Nothing happened.

(Huh?

Is it just this because it's non-verbal?

Do I need to chant it in my mind?

No, no, that can't be right!!

It's really just non-verbal!

It would just become a stealth skill!

Then what...

Maybe I need to say it out loud once?)

I thought about trying it, but...

The maid behind me is in the way.

Moreover, this maid, or rather, the maids who take care of me here, are relatively high-level.

Most of them are between levels 30 and 40.

If it were ordinary maids my mother brought from home, they would be around level 20, but these maids are at least 10 levels higher.

My mother has a high level because she used to go monster hunting with my father and their entourage in secret.

As combat maids, their eyes are so sharp that I feel like they could drill a hole through me.

If I were to chant out loud, the maid would definitely notice and it would reach my father's ears.

That would be a problem.

If I stay at home, I will definitely end up in an awkward position.

The second wife, who is aiming for my position as the legitimate first heir, will definitely try to get rid of me.

I might as well abandon my inheritance early and become an adventurer.

I don't intend to rush until I understand the attitude of my parents, but I want to leave home as soon as possible.

Since I plan to leave home, it's better if fewer people know my stats.

So, I will memorize a few incantations and secretly get up at night to chant them.

(For that, I might as well go to bed now...

I'll get up on my own at night anyway.)
