Chapter 10 - Magic Chant

[You…! What the hell is this trick you are doing?!]

Hmm? What is that supposed to mean?

The examiner after watching my magic cast, seemed to be so angry that he even had blue lines on his forehead.

[You can’t fool me! There is no way to use such a powerful magic without using a magic circle, I am sure that this, is just a trick!]

Huh, even if this was just a trick, I don’t think it would be any problem.

If the target is actually hit, I think the object presented in the test is fulfilled.

Maybe it’s just another characteristic of nobles, caring more about the process than the result at the end.

[Try again, build a solid magic circle and use your magic to demonstrate it! Otherwise, you will be immediately disqualified from the test!]

[Yes, yes. I understand!]

From the looks of it, the examiner is very excited about the process of building my magic circle.

It is my duty as an assassin to fulfill my client’s request.

First, I draw the basic magic circle of the “Fireball” spell.

This is a small magic circle about 1 meter in diameter, and it is the first basic shape that all novice wizards should learn.

《Firing Speed Level — Faster》

《Power Level — Maximum》

《Shape Change — Spear Type》

There are several types of “Additional Constructions” like options that can be applied here.

The more of these “Additional Constructions” you apply, the larger and more complex the magic circle ends up becoming.

In general, spells with two “Additional Constructions” is called “Intermediate Magic” , and if there are three it is called “Advanced Magic” , and the more it has, the more difficult it is to build it.

[Hey… Look…! Is that a magic circle…!?]

[It can’t be…?! How big is it…!?]

Someone in the crowd of participants shouted.

By the time I applied about 7 “Additional Constructions” , the magic circle I had built had become a huge circle with a diameter of about 5 meters.

[Hey, can’t we just stop at this point?]

To be honest, if I continue to use magic like this, it will no longer simply be a matter of continuing the test.

The entire area around the test field will be burned, and what will result is many people injured.

[D-Defective…! That’s right, it is full of defects, and is bound to end up failing!]

My goodness.

This examiner, he seems to want to question my spell no matter what.

If you insist on saying that, I will use more magic as you so desire.

[ “Lance of Flames (Gungnir)” ]

So, the spell I used was 《Lance of Flames (Gungnir)》 , which is ranked as a “Super Class” magic among all fire attribute spells.

BOOM!

BOOMMMMMMMMMM!

Instantly, an explosion sounded through the field.

My magic blew up the test target, and made a huge crater appear across the flat grass.

"

"

Well, it went like this.

At the last minute, I rewrote the magic construction (Source) of the spell to reduce the size of the power, so it seems I was able to prevent a catastrophe from happening.

[Hey, did you guys see that! That magic from now!?]

[I can’t believe it! This kid, he really is a commoner!?]

After a few moments of silence, the participants go into an uproar.

[Ah… Ah… aaa…]

Hmm? What the hell is this.

For a while now, the examiner has been slumped on his butt, his knees shaking and refusing to make eye contact with me.

Did I overdo it a little too much?

But then again, all the participants gathered in this place are high-level nobles.

If a commoner like me wants to pass the test, it would be right to show the difference in power in this way.
