"Oh, excuse me …"
I'm now inside my father's office.
Liam's father, Charles Hamilton is writing something.
Even after I entered the room, he continued to write something without even raising his face.
“Liam, what's the problem?”
Charles asked without raising his face.
"The magic book."
“The magic book? Did something happen?”
"Nothing, can I take out the magic book in the library?"
I just got on this body yesterday.
I suddenly become a noble and I definitely don't know how to use honorifics.
"Take out a magic book? Do you want to read it?"
“Yes.”
“Have it your way.”
"Oh, yes. Thank you."
“Anything else you need?”
"No, only that."
“Then go away, I'm busy now.”
“I.. I understand.”
I turn around and leave the office.
After that, I am looking at Charles but he is writing something over there and doesn't even see me now.
I go to the hallway and closed the door with my back.
I go in, talk to him and exit the office room.
During that time, Charles never raised his face.
He doesn't even reject me.
He just act indifferent to me.
“I understand a little about Bruno's feelings”
I feel a little sympathy for the four boys who stopped studying because there is no hope for them in the future.
After I got the permission, I take the magic book from the library and then go to the mansion garden.
The Hamilton family, the land lord of this area has a mansion that looks exactly like a castle.
They also have a forest behind their mansion, the forest is as big as a small village.
Anyway, before leaving the building, I caught a nearby maid and asked "How big is the Hamilton family's property?"
“Everything you can see is theirs”
And I got a great answer like that.
After all being a noble is amazing.
By the way, if you suddenly become a commoner, your territory will be taken by the country.
I think that certainly a checkmate for you.
After I enter the large, Hamilton forest, I sit down on the ground and open the magic book for "Elementary Fire Magic".
After I open the magic book with two hands, the thing that I need to do is written there.
Concentrate, practice breathing, and imagine it strongly.
When I concentrate for about 3 minutes, a thin and long "fire" appeared about 1 meter in front of me.
That is fire edge, one of the basic fire magic.
There is a reason why the magic book is called “magic book”, that is because it can be used as the "guidebook" for using magic.
If you have a magic book, you can use magic that you don't know, because the magic book supports you to use that magic.
However, it takes a long time for you use the magic by yourself and you can't use the magic unless you use the magic book too.
In fact, when I let go of the magic book as a test, the fire edge that I created disappeared immediately.
"If you do it every day, the activation time will gradually shorten and you will be able to use magic without this book."
I read one page of the magic book.
In short, it's like a walker given to a baby.
If you continue to practice magic with a magic book, you will be able to use it without a magic book.
The wonderful magic is surprisingly simple and you can see why nobles keep the magic book as an asset.
I continued practicing the fire edge — fire cutter in the magic book.
I didn't do anything else.
I have to go to work every day before I change to this body, but I don't have to do it after I become Liam.
Also, I became a noble, even though I'm just a fifth son of some noble.
It is regarded as an unbelievable act to work when I'm now still a kid.
Since I no longer need to work, I continued to practice magic.
I am very happy that I could practice my favorite magic, so I continued to practice magic every day.
The activation time with the magic book is getting shorter day by day.
I can feel it clearly and get into practice it more.
I continued to practice magic every day over and over again.
“Owow, you were playing around at this kind of place?”
“Nh? Big bro Bruno.”
Today Bruno came when I am learning magic at the forest.
A month after I became Liam, I knew a lot about the Hamilton family and got used to it.
I called Bruno the fourth son big bro Bruno, without any discomfort.
Then Bruno approaches me with a large sigh.
"So you're practicing magic here?"
"Yeah, I got father's permission to use the magic book."
"That's right, you know. Now he only cares about Sarah as the princess or the next queen, so what about us right? “
“Ahaha …”
It was exactly as what Bruno said.
It was the same when I got permission from the magic book and it has been so for the past month.
I have never really met his eyes, and Charles always does something different when we have a conversation.
"So, how far have you learned?
“Yes, that's right …”
I put the magic book on the ground.
By the way, the magic book is made from a special material, so it won't be scratched or destroyed unless it was attacked by a great amount of magic.
I placed my magic book, closed my eyes and concentrated, creating a fire edge in front of me - and then I make a fire cutter.
“Maybe like this?”
“……E?”
“What is it big brother?”
"Wait… you can use magic without magic book?"
“What?”
“Im.. Impossible. It will usually take a year to fully learn it and be able to use magic without magic book… Did you learn it in just a month?”
Bruno was completely surprised.
TN: so some “Anon” really hates me because for them my translation (not good or the best i know) is worse than unedited mtl. that anon also my donation plug, that i definitely need (to make the site better and help me financially for sure). I just don't like the discouraging tone of their comment. This is their comment .
