34. Siabelle Cianella (1)

I rolled on the floor hugging my damn master, so there wasn’t a place where I didn’t hurt myself.

Even now, a burning pain came up from my arm and back, but I heard the knight’s muttering as he looked down at me.

Her whispers cooled my spirit, which was about to heat up like my physical condition.

‘They said it was magic.’

It seemed that Siabelle saw me using spirit magic.

… I tried my best not to show it as much as possible.

After all, I think it’s not a spirit magic that blows the wind every time you use it.

From the movement of mana to the wind, it seems that the expert knight’s insight was unavoidable.

‘You seem half convinced.’

The emotion felt in Siabelle’s gaze was not very big, but it was certain.

I could see that my interest in the existence of myself had deepened.

It’s obvious to see him quietly looking down at me without taking care of his brother right away.

Even with such a calm expression, you won’t believe that I, a man at heart, used magic.

Men in this world don’t know the level of magic that creates a tiny spark.

It’s infinitely close to impossible to cast magic that assists movement while creating wind like this.

‘It’s difficult.’

It’s difficult. A lot of that too.

At most, the world won’t be ruined just because a man uses a single spell.

At least the world around me is a different story.

Just got the spirit magic.

Now is different from the time when Shione, who was discussing the limits of the bow in front of me, didn’t want to look at me, and threw magic at me.

Unlike back then, an unspecified number of people existed around me now.

Because I realized how terrible the talent for mana possessed by men in this world is.

The only boat I can trust is the Sione, which has only undergone minor emergency repairs.

I can’t imagine how annoying things will be if Siabelle casts a spell on her.

“Ugh…”

Shione, who was being held by me, was tossing and turning.

Her I don’t have to hug her anymore, so I release her strength from her arms that were holding her.

When the quiet situation was broken with her strange tension, Sia Bell came to her senses and began to take care of her brother.

“Shione, are you hurt anywhere?”

“Umm…Thanks to Ray’s protection, there are no serious injuries.”

“Stay still for a moment.”

It wasn’t until Sia Bell took a close look at her Sione’s condition that she could breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at her appearance, the two seemed more like sisters who cared for each other than awkward sisters.

Since Siabelle cared for Shione this far, I wondered if it was time for her quest to reconcile with Siabelle to be cleared.

As expected, there was no status window that said that the quest had been cleared.

I looked at Sione with her puzzled mind, and found her answer in her face.

Unlike her older sister, who is considerate of her younger brother, Shione gives off a hint of awkwardness as if worrying about her is burdensome.

Because of that, the quest won’t break.

Sione, is it you again?

Like it or not, Siabelle said with a worried attitude.

“Haa, fortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any serious injuries. How anxious I was.”

Poof.

Sia Belle suddenly turned her head to look at me.

“Really, if your servant was even a little late, it would have been dangerous.”

Siabelle looked at me for a moment.

I took Sia Belle’s gaze calmly and she said as she straightened her grip on her sword.

“Shione, you and your attendants should get away. Let’s talk about this after we kill all the orcs first.”

“…I understand.”

From noble mtl dot com

As long as the battle is still going on.

After confirming the safety of her sister, Sia Bell headed for the orc without hesitation.

Me and Shione looked at her from the back for a while, then raised her body.

“Are you okay?”

“Thanks to you, I’m fine. Conversely, Ray, are you okay?”

“Can I say anything else?”

At my words, Shione put on an expression of her apologetic and worried mixture.

… Who was worried about who was about to be crushed by an orc’s fist?

“…From now on, you’ll even scream. It was really close.”

“I’m sorry for always seeming like a burden. I have no face.”

After saying that, Shione lost her strength and walked, staring at the ground.

I walked beside her without saying a word, as far as I thought was safe from the orc.

In the meantime.

Sione’s small hands gripped my collar.

“…You saved me, who was such a lump of baggage, this time too. So.”

Shione’s head, which had been bowed down, came up and met her eyes.

“I’ll protect you next time.”

Because he looked like a puck or a knight making his resolution.

I just quietly nodded her head.

The sun went down and the moon rose.

The end of the second day began to appear after entering the Beltrin Mountains and starting to subdue the monsters.

Since the return is the morning of the 4th day, this will be over tomorrow.

Today, I was very tired because I worked so hard on various things.

Now it must be time to go to bed.

Thought it was OK to go back to my barracks, I said goodbye to Sione for the day.

“I’ll go back to the barracks for now.”

“Yes, good work. Let’s get some rest and see you tomorrow.”

“Yes, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

After saying goodbye to Sione, I came out of the barracks.

A cool wind blew.

It’s a bit cool today, so I think I can sleep comfortably.

When you’re full of excitement at the thought that you can finally rest properly.

I heard the voice of an unexpected person behind me.

“Wait.”

Guided by that voice, I turned around.

“Don’t we have something to share?”

Wasn’t my ears wrong?

As expected, Siabelle Cianella was glaring at me with her arms crossed.

I think it’s because of my elemental magic during the daytime.

I never thought I would get caught up in the most troublesome task when I desperately needed a break.

“You mean the story?”

“Pretend you don’t know. Follow me this way.”

After saying that, Siabelle took the lead and started walking.

I also followed her, following her leisurely but disciplined gait.

If the superiors follow you, you should follow them. It was an unavoidable choice.

A forest a little far from the camp.

Siabelle’s footsteps stopped when she reached a place where no people were felt.

“I ask straight forward. The daytime magic. How on earth could you, a man, use it?”

“You mean magic, that I threw my body to save Shione-nim?”

“Yes. You know it well.”

“…Isn’t it said that if a person is earnest, they will generate superhuman strength?”

It was a poor excuse.

As expected, Sia Belle snorted as if she had expected such an excuse.

“Looks like you have no intention of telling the truth.”

“For a man like me to use magic. It’s impossible.”

“If so.”

Sione pressed me with her unique cold stare.

“You mean the movement of mana I felt was a lie, and everything I saw with my own eyes was my hallucination?”

“…….”

“Don’t think about dragging it. It doesn’t work for me.”

As expected, Siabelle completely sensed that I knew how to handle magic.

I was afraid of repercussions if I kept brazenly taking them away like this.

As long as there is no reason to hide it from someone who has already completely known.

I have given up on hiding any more magic.

“…Keep it a secret from others.”

Siabelle’s cold gaze collapsed at my words.

Her deep curiosity and interest permeated her achromatic expression.

Sia Belle nodded her head, her eyes twinkling.

“I promise you in the name of Cianella. I will keep the fact that you can use magic as a secret.”

His widespread reputation alone proves that Siabelle is not one to break promises.

If you promise me even the name of the family.

It’s okay to believe this much.

Even if Siabelle tells someone I know how to use magic anyway.

It’s hard to believe that a man uses magic.

I couldn’t help but nod her head at Siabel’s words along with her small sigh.

“Can you show me some magic?”

Since everything has already been exposed, there is nothing to hide anymore.

“Of course.”

I agreed with Siabelle’s words and began to gather her mana.

Since I unpacked my luggage, I don’t have a sword or a bow, so I don’t have anything special to show you.

Hwareuk!

I created a spark in my hand.

Then he created a wind path and began to guide the flames.

Burning mana, brightly shining flames bloomed profusely along the wind path I made.

“Wow.”

Siabelle’s eyes were fixed on my magic at the beauty that went well with the soft moonlight.

The reaction wasn’t bad, and there was a taste to show, but it was enough to use two types of mana at the same time.

If you keep going like this, you might run out of mana because you can’t handle the speed at which your mana is declining.

I slowly reaped the magic.

So the magic that started in my hand ended in my hand again.

Siabel raised the corner of her mouth.

When I looked at Siabelle Cianella like that after I withdrew my magic.

A status window appeared before my eyes.

[Siabelle Cianella is starting to ‘fun’ with you.]

[Your mana efficiency has improved slightly due to her attention.]
