The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life Chapter 154.1

After we completed our task we went back. Just as we got back we were welcod by a familiar face.

Welco back.

If it isnt you Yera.

The person waiting for us was the Sky Heavenly Mage, Yera Schugel. She was also none other than Silveries mother, and soone who had helped us on several occasions. Today, however, it seed that she had arrived with an important business.

After prompting us to sit she cleared her throat and began explaining.

Today I ca here to ask you to do a job for . Yera said.

A job for us? Milly asked while tilting her neck. Truth be told, a new dungeon has recently erged around Izu Port City Id like you to go ahead and seal it.

Izu Port City.

It was the place where Shirushu was currently located.

A lot went on recently so I had completely forgotten about it, but I had yet to et with her.

Shirushu Onslaught is one of our companions and a beastfolk with pinkish hair. She works as a sister at one of the churches, and looks after the kids there.

Still, a new dungeon erging is certainly no laughing matter.

You see, since the accident with Grain three years ago, more and more people have been leaving the Association. It seems like no one noticed that the barrier guarding the city had weakened a little Hahaha Yera said awkwardly.

Thats no laughing matter you hag. Silverie said with a cold tone.

Theres nothing that we could do. Even I worked non-stop to try and help.

Dont try to excuse yourself. Its disgusting.

Are you going against your mother? Why dont you beco a Heavenly Mage in my place then? I wouldnt mind giving you the position at all, so what do you say?

. Y-You

After a long silence Silverie just clicked her tongue and while mumbling sothing she ran away from Yera.

Stop it Silverie, theres no way you can win against her with words.But still, three years really did pass.

From what I heard since the case, where I had been left on the brink of death and the forr Dispatch Magician Grain had escaped once again.

The authority of the Magician Association had plumted and the number of Dispatch Magician had dropped by half.

The Five Heavenly Mages workload had been multiplied as a result, and Yera seed to be very busy even now. Apparently she had co to visit quite a lot during these last three years, but it was my first ti eting her since waking up.

In any case, lets leave the minor details aside; may I entrust this to you? Yera asked.

What should we do Zeph?

Hmm, I was just thinking of going to see Shirushu so isnt this perfect?

Well it does seem so Okay Yera-san, well take up the request! Milly said.

Im in your debt Milly-chan!

And like that we ended up taking on the mission of sealing the dungeon that had newly erged near Izu Port City.

We t outside of town the next day, just as Lydia had requested the night before.

So, where in the world is Lydia?

Beats , she said she was bringing sothing.

Sorry everyone, did you wait long? Lydia said as she appeared next to the towns gate while pulling onto what appeared to be a hut on wheels.

What is that?

Fufu, this is whats called a carriage. Well have Uru-chi pull on it while we ride on top

This really does look like a carriage Wait, wont this be incredible given Uruk is able to fly while pulling it?

As I was pondering things, Silverie seed to have noticed and decided to enlighten .

Theres nothing to worry about. From what we researched before, Uruk is able to fly by using magic power to create a road in the sky. So if we put pieces of Uruks hooves on the carriages wheels, it will be able to use that path as well Weve already put it through its paces, so dont worry.

So thats what you were doing when you asked to borrow Uruk. Milly said.

Thats right, well then Milly-chan well leave the drivers seat to you. Lydia said.

Following which Milly hopped on top of Uruk while the rest of us boarded the carriage.

W-Will this thing really fly? Milly asked anxiously.

Its fine, dont worry about it Lydia said with a carefree smile while sitting right next to .

Nonetheless, Milly still looked at Uruk with a bit of disbelief in her eyes. However, Uruk looked like he wasnt worried at all and even tried to draw his face closer to Milly so that he could lick her to calm her down. Milly, on the other hand, deftly averted the situation.

Bad Uruk!

Neigh.

Looking at the disheartened Uruk, Milly couldnt help but feel sowhat bad so she ended up petting his head.

Good grief Milly. Its because you spoil him so much that he acts however he pleases.

Okay, look here Uruk. If you do a good job then Ill give you a reward, how about that?

Neigh!!! Uruk exclaid happily.

Uruk started to run, dragging us high into the sky, as I made up my mind that I would surely make her pay one day.

Whoa!!! This is so amazing. Milly exclaid.

Uruk effortlessly danced in the sky as he pulled the carriage.

Hes quite powerful, being able to carry Milly alongside us three.I was worried at first but it looks like there wont be any problems.

Uruk was flapping his wings and slicing through the sky at a terrifying pace.

Normally, a leisure flight without any shaking would be unlikely, but the carriage had a magic system attached to its outer region that was able to control the incoming air, minimizing the vibrations.

It seed like Lydia and Silverie had combined their skills in magic and craftsmanship in order to create a number of amazing things.

Zeph-chi were so high up arent we! The people look just like ants! Lydia said excitedly.

Youre quite excited for so reason. Didnt you already try it when performing the experints?

Riding with everyone else feels different. Isnt that right Se-chi, Zeph-chi? Lydia said as she hugged both of us.

She is right, this view is definitely sothing else.Flying like this is a first for .

Its been so long since Ive last seen Shirushu, I cant wait.

I totally get it. Shiru-chi has been quite busy recently so she didnt have any ti to co and visit us, we havent seen her in quite a while as well.

It might have been better if I went to see her imdiately but I did have a lot of stuff to take care of first.Still, my rehabilitation is finally finished, and Im able to fight properly now, so this request ca just at the right ti.

Look, look, thats the Govnu Swamp over there. We crossed so much distance already! Thats so amazing!!! Lydia said excitedly.

You sure are having a lot of fun arent you Lydia

Of course I am!

Urgh Everyone sounds so happy Milly quietly mumbled to via Telepathy.

I had completely forgotten about it, but she had been controlling Uruk all this ti.

Looking towards Uruk, I saw Milly, who had a lonely expression on her face, staring at us.After a while we finally arrived at Izu Port City.

This atmosphere It doesnt feel that much different from before.

Considering there is a dungeon nearby, it appears to be a lot more peaceful than I expected. Milly said.

Well yea, the towns protective barrier is still active apparently.

Protective barriers were usually deployed with the centre of the town as a base, forming a circle around it. Apparently the dungeon had appeared at a part where the barrier had been damaged.

According to Yera the Magician Association were quick to dispatch people so it would take so ti before the monsters entered the city.

Which ans that sealing the dungeon is not that urgent.

Having decided on that our first task was to go to the church that Shirushu was at.

It really has been quite a while.

Shirushu lived in a church on the outskirts of Izu Port City, on top of a hill that could be seen from the citys entrance.

The churchs garden appeared to be in good shape, and children were playing in the area.

Just as we arrived at the church, a single boy noticed us and imdiately ca to greet us.

Following him, the other children ca as well.

Whoa!! Milly-san, Lydia-san and Silverie-san ca!

Hey Ryu-kun, its been a while Milly greeted him

Did you grow taller? Lydia asked.

Im still no match for you Lydia-san. Ryu answered happily.

You seem to be doing well. Silverie said.

Thats right Silverie-san, I see that youre also the sa as always.

The tanned boys small ears moved about as he greeted everyone with a cheerful smile on his face.

He was dressed in a tanktop and short pants.

Still, to think that this is Ryu.Its true that I havent t him in three years, but to think that hed grow so much.Co to think of it, I dont rember Silverie eting him. They must have gotten to know each other during these three years.

Excuse sir, who might you be Ryu asked.

Its been a while Ryu.

That voice It cant be Zeph-nii?

Thats right. You sure grew quite a lot Ryu.

Look whos talking Zeph-nii Youve grown way too much

Fufufu, sleeping brings up a child well. That aside, where is Shirushu?

Well Shes probably ditating under the waterfall.

ditating under the waterfall? Whats that? Milly asked

When Ryu heard Millys query, he scratched his head, as though he was trying to co up with an explanation.

You see Shiru-nee found a master a while back, and since then shes constantly been with him. Hes apparently teaching her a thod to restrain her instincts. Ryu explained.

Oh! Now I rembered, she did say sothing like that.

Shirushus race was a rare one even amongst beastfolk.

Her eyes and hair would turn bright red as her emotions took over, and when she was overco with rage, she would lose herself and feel compelled to fight, regardless of whether the adversary was an enemy or an ally.

Her initial goal in joining us was to train herself to control her impulses, but due to my falling asleep, her training had evidently co to a halt.

I kind of feel bad for Shirushu, but Im glad that she finally managed to find a way to control her instincts.

Well were free so we might as well go and check up on her. Would you guide us Ryu?

Sure thing, leave it to Zeph-nii!

We arrived at a rocky area a short distance from Izu Port Town, following Ryu.

Shirushu was apparently ditating under one of the nurous waterfalls in the region, which fed into a vast river that flowed into the sea.

Still, ditating under a waterfall huh. Co to think of it I rember there being sothing like that in a foreign country quite far away from here. Silverie said

Se-chin you know about it as well?

The old hag asked to do it a while back.

Ahaha, so thats how it is!

We walked and spoke until the sound of a waterfall beca more audible.

A massive waterfall was right in front of our eyes. However, Shirushu was nowhere to be seen.

Cant see her.

Please wait for a bit. Ryu asked as he began to sniff the area.

I can sll her. She was here just now. Her masters sll is mixed up as well, so I think that theyre sowhere together.

I see. Do you know where they went to?

If theyre not here then they must be at the hemp grasslands. They seem to be doing so kind of training that involves jumping over the tall hemps there.

Jumping over hemps I had to do the sa thing as well

Ahaha Se-chin you know way too much! Is that a kind of foreign country training as well?

The old hag just likes these sort of things.

Well Yera is a foreign country maniac after all.I guess she must have had a lot of fun playing with Silverie.

We once again followed behind Ryu until we reached the hemp grassland, however Shirushu wasnt there as well.

Hmm It seems like we missed her again

Around the area filled with hemp there were nurous footsteps.

This size, theyre definitely Shirushus shoes.

Theres one more pair though.

The other pair of footprints were slightly smaller and seed to be made of rope-like shoes that were made in an unusual way.

These footprints were definitely left behind by Zouri shoes. The people of a certain foreign country love to wear them.

I guess Shirushus master might be a foreigner then.

Shirushus teacher huh.Im quite curious now.

Afterwards we went to quite a few places, however we never ended up eting Shirushu.

I finally got an idea of what Shirushu is trying to do.It seems she really is training quite hard.

Feeling tired from all the walking we decided to go back to the church.
