Young God Divine Armaments Chapter 39

Chapter 39 – Visitor Suddenly Barging In

The magic in this world doesn’t depend that much in chanting the spell by mouth but rather put an importance in the technique that is supported by the caster’s imagination power.

It started with thinking of the words that have simple meaning and then combining those words to shape the magic. With a successful combination, an incantation is created and the magic is already available to cast off. That is the principle of magic casting in this world.

Let’s put the standard magic in fantasy world, the magic that shoot a ball of flame forward, fireball, as an example to explain the process of casting a magic.

The combination of either [fire] and [ball] or [fire] and [globe] had the same name of fireball even if the runes that construct the magic are a little different. It was mainly because the guild wants to simplify the record for easier management so they just bundled up magic that seems similar even if it was constructed from different sets of runes. Anyway, the magician nowadays would remember the combination to construct a magic better than the magic name itself as it was not really that important in the process of casting magic.

According to the ancestor, the reasons why this ‘modern’ magic is shaped in this kind of form are as followed:

2. If you use chanting to cast a magic, enemy can easily disable a magician by just silencing the magician and there are a lot of ways to shut someone mouth. It is also almost impossible for someone to cast magic while running so they are vulnerable to receiving hits. There also problems regarding pronunciation that could affect the conjuring of magic. Anyway there are a lot of conspicuous weak spot.

And then the problem is. In this world where chanting magic is already obsolete, what kind of magic conjuring that is considered as high leveled like the legendary ‘chant-less magic’ that usually comes out in those fantasy novel?

The usual tactics between skilled magicians is by etching one rune into the brain and then knead other runes that are combinable with the stock rune that was previously etched. Using this trick, the magicians deceived each other with the purpose of to not let the opposing party read their true strength. In the advanced stage, the magician even don’t need to knead the rune or write the rune with their finger any longer… is what the magician hope how it will comes out once they reached that height. In the end, this rune technique in the most basic essence is just the same as the chanting-styled magic. And that similarity is that both technique ultimate goals is to try finding the simplest way to cast the magic using the shortest time possible while keeping or even increasing the output of the magic.

After finish accepting some jobs from the government office, Renya went back to their lodge first to get ready. And because there are some time left before the work starts, Renya asked Brenda to explain him about this world‘s magic principle. When Brenda asks him why he suddenly asks such question, he just answers it like this:

“Well, using mouth to chant the magic is indeed faster in some ways…… but there are also a lot of unnecessary points mixed in”

“Now that you mention it, I haven’t heard your rank in the guild Brenda, what is your rank now?”

Renya who doesn’t know much about the standard of this world moreover the standard in the magician guild can only reacts to Brenda words lightly and just let it pass. Renya don’t know that being a fifth tier ranked magician at her age means that her future possibility is very prospective that even nobles and kings will try to hire her actively. The reason is because increasing the number of etched rune is not a simple think that even hard leveled ascetic practice could increase.

Because of that, after reaching fifth tier rank, Brenda position in the guild raises through the roof in one go. At the same time, she also got the privilege to accept special job request that is not available to other lower ranked magician and she could also be awarded with a high positioned occupation within the guild but she had politely refused it.

“Ah that magician from Sirkaberia right?”

Brenda tells the story of her teacher while smiling wryly because of her teacher unfavorable traits but her voice tone shows how deep her affection to her teacher really is.

With that in mind and the rare chance presents, Renya feel easier to ask. He thinks that he could help Brenda more if he knows more about her so he unhesitatingly ask her.

“…… Yes, that’s right. Teacher also trust you it seems so might as well tell you about it”

“It was a story from when teacher hadn’t even taken me in as disciple yet. Teacher had this one magician acquaintance that does some kind of bizarre researches. And the magic that the person experimenting is a kind of peculiar spell that use summoning magic system as it base”

“In the least, that kind of magic system is not recorded in the world’s magic organization. But such necromancy magic is also present. That kind of magic is something that my teacher regarded as blasphemous and hates it to the bone. Well, in actuality, there are rune that used the word [death] or [spirit] but we, magician, usually only combine [death] with the word [cleansing] to construct a purify undead magic and other similar magic”

“That person research is about ---- summoning a god from another world or so as I was told”

“Yes. From the beginning, that person had already insisted on her own theory about the origins of magic. In her theory, she said that all kind of magic was conjured from another world to cause interference in this world. And that another world that she said here means a world that exist inside every magician, their own self’s world. With the existence of summoning magic, that person starts to doubt whether there are other plural worlds that is different from this current world”

“I didn’t hear the reason why that acquaintance seeking a way to summon a god from another world. But my teacher regrets from not taking any action to stop that person even though she managed to comprehend the danger from that research early”

“…… I didn’t know the detail of the story but from the little bit of story I heard ---- seems like a town was destroyed without a trace left”

“In the event of the academy raid, teacher still had her doubt. But after I report her about the Rugartia insurrection case, teacher seems to find an important clue. Perhaps my teacher suspects that the acquaintance of hers had some connection with the Ordough sect”

“Yes. Teacher also has disciple in other continent and all of them are also investigating about Ordough sect too. The reason why I can become the me right now is pretty much thanks to my teacher for educating me so well. So I want to somehow return this feeling to her by helping her as much as I can“

“Teacher is, both in good and bad meaning, is a person who uphold self-responsibility. She will let her student do as they pleases and only remind them to take responsibility for their action by themselves“

“Because of that, I investigate Ordough sect while minding my own ability. I don’t even try digging too deep as it will only bring me danger. In fact, teacher even reminds me to not delve too much in the matter regarding the sect and told me to spend my time for my…… own… self…”

“Hee… even if she has her own weaknesses she is indeed a good teacher…… Why did your face suddenly turns red like that Brenda?”

“…… Your teacher really is a she right?”

“Ok, don’t be rash! Wait a minute and calm yourself! After that try to remember what you had said before!? From your speech before, not suspecting about something weird happened is weirder right!? In the first place, it was you who suddenly feel embarrassed at the most weird timing right……?”

“ANYWAY, that should be like this right, when you talk to your teacher about that, she suddenly made fun of you or some similar things happened that make you feel embarrassed right?”

Renya was only thinking about how to get out from that sticky situation just before so he made something up quickly but thanks to that, Brenda at last managed to regains her calm.

“Hoo. I was surprised when I heard that there is a man who gets your approval. Getting an approval from a woman like you, I was wondering what kind of big shot that man was. I see I see. This guy really is not your usual average joe. With him around, that smoking hot body of yours that I raised with much trouble at last can be put to a good use”

“BUHO!!!”

Even Brenda couldn’t keep her composure to the sudden thing happening and spurt out a mouthful of tea to Renya’s face grandly with all her might.

“I-I’m sorry! Are you okay”

Brenda is in a hurry wipes up Renya face gallantly with her handkerchief. Her face is filled with guilty feeling because of her mishap. And the one who is the cause of this all, Martina Servin who as usual wears a black dress, was only standing there looking at the view that unfold before her while smiling naughtily.

For your information, this world also had a similar culture with earth regarding underwear that even the common folk women also usually wear a pair of top and bottom underwear. Cup size and underwear design is also pretty much similar from the one from earth. Why in this kind of medieval world that kind of modern culture permeates deep within it, only the gods from this world that know.

“T-teacher!”

“Both of them! Gosh, teacher why did you always do things like that…… Humph!”

And Martina, who doesn’t seem to care about Brenda’s scolding, just calmly turns her sight to Renya.

“Ha?”

Author note: I made this chapter to answer reader question about why Brenda doesn’t do chanting while casting spell.

And then the reappearance of the sexual harassment teacher.
