Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata ~Senjou wo Kakeru Kaifuku Youin~ Chapter 59

The results of Nacks training for day one were not bad .

His stamina was still a problem We still had four days left so I wasnt too concerned but he still lacked the speed I desired . His endurance would gradually grow as he continued to train but I could only hope that his speed would also increase during that process .

And lastly, there was also his healing magic that I had to take into consideration .

It was difficult to use healing magic and run at the sa ti if you werent used to it . Nack would have a hard ti . In my case, I started using healing magic while running at the sa ti . I was forcefully made to rember that sensation, whether I liked it or not . Since Nack had been using healing magic in a normal way all this ti, it would probably be difficult for him to use it while exercising .

Well, as long as he got used to it, itll work out one way or another

On the second day of Nacks training, Bluerin was chasing after Nack on schools training grounds while I was pondering over my own training .

Amako, who had a hood over her head, was sitting next to as she watched over Nack . For these past few days, she was at the stable along with the other knights . But since I took out Bluerin, she had nothing to do and ca here to look at Nacks training .

This is really the worst . So this is Roses legacy that Im passing on Her brute and savage ways of using healing magic . It hurts my conscience a little to train him like this

That na for the training doesnt sound normal at all

Hahaha, theres no way it would be normal at all . Its Leader were talking about after all .

Usato, youre the one using this kind of training as a last resort . Youre not normal either .

How rude . My training yesterday cant be compared to that demons . It wasnt like I kept healing Nack back after he exhausted all his stamina and forced him to keep running .

Compared to that, I would say I was the gentle one .

Amako was looking at with pity for so reason .

You cant make Nack beco sothing like you, Usato .

Hey, its like youre saying my way of learning magic was weird to begin with .

As youre soone who overca that training, I cant consider you anything else but weird .

. .

Eh . Huh? I was the weird one?

But at that ti, I just desperately trained . My mories were also a little vague I felt that I progressed a lot though .

. . W-well, lets leave that aside for a mont . I had to focus on Nacks training right now . Escaping Amakos eyes that were looking at with pity, I turned my attention to Bluerin who was running after Nack .

Nacks pace was gradually slowing down . Bluerin would slow down his own speed to match Nacks . He did it very discreetly so that it was almost unnoticeable .

This wont do, this really wont do . The true bane of training was taking it easy . Although Nack wasnt a formal mber for the Rescue Squad, I couldnt allow Bluerin to have an easy ti .

Nack, your speed has dropped . Bluerin!! Youre not here to relax and have fun!! Youre a monster right!? Then act like one!!

While giving Nack a warning, I shouted harshly at Bluerin .

Despite how I gave a gentle warning, for so reason, Nack was the one whose eyes overflowed with tears and accelerated . As for Bluerin, he was carefree and growled a few tis as if to say Yeah, yeah . I got it . before raising his own speed to match Nacks .

The both of them seed to giving it their all now . I could understand Bluerins reaction but why was Nack

As I tilted my head to the side, Amako removed her hands that were covering her ears . She looked at Nack who was running with all he had in a daze and said,

It was effective . It was super effective . Usato, you were trying to be gentle but Nack would obviously try even harder and desperately give it his all if he was treated like that As expected of you, Usato . Just how many tis do you plan to surprise on this journey before youre satisfied?

Why are you convincing yourself with that!?

But in response, Amako just kept on nodding .

Even so, it was a good thing that Nack had the motivation to strive for more .

In the worst case scenario, Nack would just be running at a slower pace . It would be fine as long as he could keep going . Unlike Felm, Nack was a healing magician and would use his healing magic unconsciously if he was about to faint . Because he would always get surrounded and beaten, it was no surprise he would active his healing magic on instinct . However, this wasnt good enough . Nack couldnt just operate his healing magic with auto-pilot .

The minimum result I desire from Nack is for him to use healing magic while moving . He should also have fortified his stamina during this period of ti . . Amako, can you use your ability to see the future while running?

Sort of . My magic requires a trendous amount of concentration, so I cant see that far in the future while Im running .

I was trained to run and use healing magic at the sa so I dont really get it . Could you advise ? Am I going about this in the wrong way for Nacks training?

.

Amako looked away from Nack who was running and turned to with a troubled gaze .

Honestly, I dont know since there has been no precedent . But I can say this . Its already wrong for a healing magician who isnt supposed to fight to be training to fight . But, Usato, your thods are strict, unreasonable, and you have a screw loose in your head so the results you desire make sense . . Even though its unreasonable and you have a screw loose in your head .

You dont need to say it twice!!

I thought this before but your words are really sharp .

Still, to think there was no precedent . It just ans it hasnt been tried before .

In that case, Ill continue on this path . Training itself would never betray you . I was fully aware of that .

Anyhow, I should do my best too .

I had such a good spot to train; it would be a waste to not make use of it . While I paid close attention to Nacks training, I started to apply the idea for my magic that I thought of yesterday .

What are you trying to do?

Trying to see if I could release healing magic at a distance .

I wasnt trying to be like Kazuki and use my magic at attack an opponent from a distance . I just wanted to see if I could release and fire a ball of magic .

As for how to exactly do that, I wasnt sure . I would just experint and try to get a feel for it .

Usato, so what you an is you want to fire a sphere like other offensive magic?

Sothing like that . Although my healing magic is continuously increasing and I can deploy it throughout my body, there will definitely co a ti where I wont be able to heal soone unless I can get closer . If I could make it so my healing magic could be released and fly a certain distance to heal soone, it would surely co in handy .

Currently, my healing magic could cover my entire body while healing wounds and fatigue over ti . This was the end result of Nacks training . From here on out, I would be attempting the unknown Sothing that Rose hasnt taught . Or it could be that she felt that there was no need to teach this .

If Rose was here, she could probably give the appropriate advice . But since she wasnt here, I could only rely on myself to find a solution .

I closed my eyes . I slowly released healing magic in my right hand as the light gradually got brighter . My control over magic seed better than the average person . I kept on gathering magic in the palm of hand until it ford a sphere .

I tried to think of a strong image inside my head

Inukami-senpai, she would unleash her lightning from her palm like an electrical discharge .

Kazuki, he would create a sphere of magic by drawing the light in his surroundings .

The image I had in my mind was a pretty and green sphere . I didnt need to reinforce it, I just needed to gather enough magic power to completely fill this sphere

I certainly felt a sense of magic power on my palm .

I opened my eyes, and in my palm was .

It was easier than I expected Its a bit anti-climactic

Just like the image in my mind, there was a sphere of magic lightly floating in my hand .

It wasnt that difficult . Huh? I thought I would have more trouble While I had this doubt, Amako let out a sigh .

This result is obvious . Forming a sphere is one of the basics of magic . Whether it be humans or beast kin, this is the basics of the basics . You could say its strange that you havent done this till now .

Well, getting beaten up was the basics of the basics for healing magic .

Amako averted her eyes from and looked at the sphere in my hand . The sphere was floating and would follow wherever my hand moved .

. . Alright .

!?

Tsk .

Looks like she found out .

As I wanted to test this sphere of healing magic, I moved it closer to Amako . But as it was about to make contact with her, Amako jumped backwards . She looked at in astonishnt .

Did you just try to push that sphere towards just now?

What are you talking about? Do you think I would do sothing like that to you? Nope, its impossible .

You definitely clicked your tongue just now! I saw it too, I wouldve been enveloped in a green light if I didnt dodge just now . Other than your healing magic, Usato, who else could have done it . !?

Her body would be enveloped in a green light?

I see . When this sphere makes contact with soone, all the magic in it would be used to heal them . This is convenient . Releasing this sphere might not be faster than healing soone directly . The sphere could also only heal a fixed amount . Still, this could be useful in ergencies .

Huhhh? My bad . I didnt realize that the magic in my hand would fly towards you, Amako .

Muu .

At any rate, it seems like this sphere had a practical use and I was able to get so revenge on Amako . I felt very satisfied and couldnt help but smile upon rembering so of my bad friends in my forr world .

Amako was glaring at and angrily huffing . I warded it off with a laugh . I moved to a target and stood about 10 ters away from it .

Well, itll probably fly out if I cut off my connection to this sphere .

I extended my right arm and aid it at the target in front of . I ford an image of releasing the sphere in my head . When I first started using healing magic, I would have so sort of image in my head so I was very used to this process . There shouldnt be any problems .

While imagining a baaam! sound effect, the magic ball fired .

Seeing that the sphere easily fired out from my hand, I raised my voice in excitent .

Oooo oh?

I was confused since after the initial acceleration when the sphere fired out, it quickly decelerated before completely disappearing .

I retried this process multiple tis but the result was the sa .

. But why?

It looks like emitting and firing out magic is not one of your strong points, Usato .

This Well, we all have our strong and weak points .

After arriving this far, I discovered a fatal weakness .

It seed I wasnt good at firing out magic . The initial acceleration was good but Actually, didnt it only start that fast because I was pushing the sphere with my hand? My happiness was short-lived

Wait a mont

The initial speed was because I pushed my arm out to accelerate it, right?

If that was the case, couldnt I put more power into it? It should at least fly a certain distance before losing speed . In the first place, I didnt need to control my strength at all for sothing like this . I didnt have the magic talent anyways I didnt need to restrict myself to the conventional way of firing magic . If so, I should use my own thod to make it so this sphere could have a practical use in a real battle .

My own way of doing things .

In other words, making use of my strength .

Usato, theres nothing you can do about it . Everyone is born with different qualities . Youre already strong enough .

I still have sothing up my sleeve Amako

Eh?

I concentrated once more and ford a sphere of magic in my hand .

While grasping onto the orb in my hand tightly, I twisted my body a little .

I didnt need the magic talent to emit and fire magic! I wont give up so easily! Im stubborn like that!

I raised my arms up . My right arm swung down and threw the magic ball in my right hand at the sa ti like a pitcher .

There!

Eh .

The ball of healing magic continued to fly forward with trendous speed and it showed no sign of dropping It then crashed right into the target and the light scattered .

Hmm . My aim is a little off . Well, I didnt have much interest in any sports back in my forr world . Theres no helping it that my accuracy isnt that good . Ill just have to improve by continuously training .

As I exhaled out with a fuu, I looked at the spot that I hit . This ti, I fired at around a distance of 20 ters . I was very close to hitting my mark . But since this ball of healing magic didnt have any weight, I probably couldnt throw it very far .

Its perfect .

No no no, its strange . Throwing magic that has no weight is a little

This is my own technique, the Healing Magic Ball .

Strange, strange, strange . Amako kept repeating this dazedly while her body swayed back and forth like a trono . I bitterly smiled at her reaction and turned my attention back to Nack .

Nack was running along with Bluerin just like before but he suddenly lost his balance and fell forward .

Oh .

I could see he was forcing himself to maintain that pace . Before he fell onto the ground, I had already jumped out to catch him . Although he was sowhat far away, I was able to quickly close the distance and support him .

You alright, Nack?

Haah . Haah . . Im . . so . . rry .

. He didnt exhaust his magic, he just couldnt concentrate enough to heal his fatigue . I applied so healing magic on his back .

His complexion gradually got better despite his rough breaths .

As expected, its a little hard for you to use healing magic while running?

Yes . . Its not like I cant do it . But as soon as I lose concentration for even a mont, it breaks apart

. You arent used to it yet so it cant be helped . Even I wasnt able to do this in just one day, no need to rush . We still have four days .

You could also say we only have four days . Well, I could also train him to dodge my attacks and make his body learn to automatically use healing magic when necessary . But that wouldnt allow Nack to freely use healing magic while in motion so

Only in the worst case scenario .

Nack has really been trying his best . Hes been taking a break from his important studies and focusing everything on his training for this week . He truly desired to train . However, even if he was giving it his all, I still had to consider what to do if things dont go as planned .

As I was hesitating and thinking of what to say to Nack, I found a familiar figure looking at Nack from the entrance .

This person had twin tails and was laughing as she looked at Nack being supported by .

That hairstyle, it was Mina huh . I thought she ca here to train but after laughing at Nack, she turned around and headed back to the school .

She ca here to jeer at him, really, shes

Her personality was really bad . She also left without doing any training here . She was basically saying she was confident she could win even without doing anything .

Either way, there was no need to be concerned over it . Suppressing and cooling my own thoughts, I continued to heal Nack . After I finished, I propped him up .

Nack held one hand against his head and turned his back to .

Shes always like that . She treats like a fool and always verbally insults . But I Whether it be magic or anything else, Im inferior to her so I cant talk back

Nack, you dont need to mind it .

Of course I mind . After all Before I got driven out to this place, it wasnt like this at all Just because I have healing magic, everyone changed They had no choice but to change . Even though I dont want to be here, what can I do? I have no place to return to

No place to return to?

This place, he was referring to Luquis?

While I was slightly puzzled at Nacks words, he continued to talk . It was like he was trying to spill out everything inside his mind and express his sorrow .

Usato-san, this training will make stronger, right? . Ill be able to win against Mina? Really Even soone like

Nack suddenly beca silent upon realizing what he had just said .

After a mont of silence, Nack spoke again is if to smooth over the awkward situation .

Im sorry . I was saying things that didnt make any sense for no reason Please, dont worry about my words just now .

No, of course Im going to worry .

From his own words, there seed to be sothing much more important to address than Nacks fight with Mina .

Im very grateful to you, Usato-san . However, the only thing Ive been doing these past two days is running I know its very disrespectful for to doubt you but This training, I cant see the aning of it .

No

But before I continued speaking, I paused upon seeing Nacks back .

I was about to say No, if you have ti to worry about sothing like that, you should focus on training . It felt like such a natural response that I couldnt help but be shocked at myself .

That wont do . Rose was having a bad influence on . He was burdened with a lot of things I couldnt just say sothing that excessive and rciless to him .

I took a deep breath and erased the words I was going to say from my head . I thought of so kinder words to say to Nack and spoke,

Its not a matter of can you win or not, its you WILL win . Mina is also underestimating you . This isnt a bad thing . Since she has her guard down, you can take advantage of it . Because she wont expect an attack from you, this is why Im training you so you have more offensive capabilities . Thats why . Do your best .

Do my best, you say

Upon hearing my words, Nack nodded and started to run again . I still had so mixed thoughts about his words just now .

Seeing Bluerin who was lying down and slacking off, I woke him up .

Dont slack off, dont slack off .

Guuh . .

Hey, Nacks going to overtake you .

I forcefully pulled Bluerin up and he started running once more . I looked over at the scene of Nack and Bluerin running, and it got thinking It probably looked like this when Rose saw and Bluerin training together before .

Back in the Rescue Squad, I only saw the backs of that scary bunch with their ridiculous stamina haha But when I saw the young Nack running along with Bluerin, it gave a mysterious feeling .

Master and disciple, huh .

While I nonchalantly murmured this, I moved to a spot where I wouldnt be in the way of their training .

*

Thinking about it carefully, it was around this ti when I noticed it .

Because of the appearance of Mina who caused a lot of suffering for Nack, I thought everything would be resolved as long as he could defeat her by himself .

But I was wrong .

The darkness he carried was much more cruel and harsh than Inukami-senpai and I thought .

I realized it during the morning for the third day of training .

At first, I thought he already left and was doing his own training .

After all, he wasnt in the bedroom that Kiriha lent him .

But he wasnt at the training grounds . Oh my, is he late because he did so independent training and overdid it? I thought this and waited one hour with Bluerin .

At the mont that I started to doubt whether Nack would show up or not, Amako arrived . She ca a bit late but when she pointed out her suspicions, I finally realized it

The reality and fact that Nack ran away from training
