Con la excusa de que estamos jugando, he empezado a enseñarle magia a Sylph. | |||
Mi idea es que si pudiera usar magia, sería capaz de defenderse por sus propios medios. | |||
Al principio Sylph sólo podía lanzar 5 o 6 hechizos antes de quedar agotado, pero en apenas 1 año, su capacidad mágica ha aumentado considerablemente, hasta el punto de que es capaz de practicar magia durante medio día sin cansarse. | |||
'''''"El maná máximo de una persona es definido al nacer."''''' | |||
Esta línea de la guía mágica no parece ser muy veraz. | |||
Aunque algunas anotaciones sobre la especialización en hechizos, parece que sí son ciertas. | |||
A Sylph se le da bastante mal la magia de Fuego, sin embargo es muy bueno con los hechizos de Agua y Viento. | |||
¿Por qué será? ¿Tendrá algo que ver su sangre Élfica? Lo dudo... | |||
Según Roxy, existen las ''Especializaciones y Penalizaciones por escuela de magia'', en este caso, los elementos; Por lo que me dijo, todo el mundo tiene escuelas de magia con las que son mejores y peores. | |||
Mi curiosidad me hizo preguntarle a Sylph si le daba miedo el fuego. | |||
Aunque me respondió que no, pude ver en la palma de su mano una horrenda quemadura. Parece que cuando tenía 3 años, estuvo jugando a escondidas de sus padres y acabó agarrando una barra de metal que había en su chimenea. | |||
"Pero eso fue hace mucho, ya no me da miedo." | |||
Por mucho que diga eso, podría temerlo subconsciente y eso podría afectarle generando esa penalización con los hechizos de Fuego. | |||
Si te paras a pensarlo, usando a los enanos como ejemplo, la mayoría de ellos tienen problemas con hechizos de Agua aunque tienen soltura con hechizos de Fuego y Tierra. | |||
Por lo general, los enanos siempre viven en zonas montañosas, jugando en zonas donde la tierra es un amigo más. Cuando crecen, aprender el arte de la forja de sus padres y la forma de excavar minerales en las minas durante la mayoría de su adolescencia, y esto posiblemente influya en su afinidad con la tierra y el fuego. Sin embargo, algunos eventos en la montaña tales como inhundaciones por las lluvias o aguas subterraneas pueden causarles traumas y miedo al agua que le bajen la afinidad con el elemento. | |||
Mi teoría es que las especializaciones y penalizaciones vienen derivadas de la exposición continuada a un elemento y traumas por eventos peligrosos, y que las razas no influyan lo más mínimo. | |||
Y debo de añadir que en mi caso no poseo ningún elemento o escuela de magia que se me dé peor, posiblemente por la tranquilidad y cuidado con el que me han criado. | |||
Por otro lado, no necesitas exactamente fuego para generar viento o agua templados, pero explicarle todos los conceptos físicos va a ser un problema, así que sencillamente lo dejaré en magia de Fuego. | |||
Pero quiero que la aprenda porque creo que ser capaz de usar fuego en cualquier momento es muy beneficioso para el día a día. Sólo con calentar ingredientes y utensilios puedes desinfectar una gran variedad de bacterias, y nadie disfruta muriendo por una intoxicación alimentaria, así que la magia de fuego aunque sea para cocinar la comida correctamente es necesaria. | |||
Aunque también es cierto que con la magia Desintoxicante de nivel Básico se pueden neutralizar la mayoría de venenos. | |||
Pero bueno, aunque Sylph tiene problemas con los hechizos de Fuego, no se queja y sigue entrenando, seguramente porque fue quién me pidió que le enseñara. | |||
Cuando Sylph frunce el ceño mientras utiliza mi báculo (el que Roxy me regaló) siguiendo los pasos de la guía de estudio sobre la magia (traída desde casa), su belleza aumenta enormemente. Hasta el punto de que hasta yo, que me atraen sólo las mujeres, debo de aceptar lo guapo que es. Estoy seguro de que en el futuro será muy popular. | |||

Volumen 01 Capítulo 08 - Sin Delicadeza
1ª Parte
Hace poco cumplí los 6 años, aunque mi día a día apenas ha cambiado en este tiempo.
Por la mañana entrenamiento con Paul, y cuando no tengo nada que hacer por la tarde, investigo y pruebo técnicas mágicas por la pradera del árbol enorme.
Por ejemplo, intento acelerar mis ataques con espada o ser capaz de hacer movimientos evasivos bruscos utilizando magia de Viento, o conjurar suelo embarrado o pequeños surcos con arenas movedizas para impedirle el movimiento a mis adversarios...
Puede que haya gente que cree que tu habilidad con la espada no mejora si dependes de trucos sucios como esos, pero no soy de esos.
Personalmente creo que hay 2 formas de convertirte en un buen combatiente; la primera es buscar estrategias con las que derrotar a enemigos más fuertes que tú, y la segunda es entrenar y mejorar tu habilidad básica.
Y ya que mi meta es vencer a Paul, ahora mismo estoy más centrado en la primera de esas 2 formas.
Paul es un rival MUY duro. Puede que no sea suficiente maduro como padre, pero como espadachín es de lo mejorcito.
Seguramente si me centrara en el segundo método, entrenando sin descanso a diario, llegará el día en que pueda con él.
Pero si lo piensas, ahora mismo tengo 6 años, dentro de 10 tendré 16 y Paul 35, si me toma más tiempo quizás le venciera a los 21, cuando Paul tuviera 40.
Pero ganarle llegado este punto pierde todo el sentido. Si soy incapaz de ganarle cuando era su mejor momento, siendo Paul seguro que me dice algo como: "Ahh, ojala mi cuerpo respondiera como antes...".
Además que yo mismo sólo le veo sentido si soy capaz de venderle estando él al 100%.
Actualmente Paul tiene 25 años, y aunque hace años que dejó de ser aventurero, su cuerpo está en su mejor momento y seguramente se mantenga así hasta los 30, así que espero poder ganarle al menos una vez en los próximos 5 años.
Si fuera posible me gustaría ganarle combatiendo únicamente con espada, aunque si fuera imposible, mezclaría hechizos mientras intercambiamos golpes cuerpo a cuerpo.
Y pensando así, continúo mi entrenamiento contra mi imagen mental de Paul.
2ª Parte
Cada vez que voy a la pradera con ese árbol enorme, tengo muchas posibilidades de encontrarme allí con Sylph.
"Perdona, ¿llevas mucho rato esperando?"
"No, yo también acabo de llegar."[1]
Tras decirnos unas líneas similares a las que se diría una pareja de enamorados, nos disponemos a jugar juntos.
Las primeras veces, el Somar o como se llame de la otra vez junto con el resto de sus amigos venían corriendo a molestarnos; en algunas ocasiones, venían acompañados de niños mayores, aunque siempre conseguimos echarles. Y todas y cada una de las veces, la madre de Somar acababa viniendo a casa a quejarse, vete a saber porqué[2].
Pero un día finalmente comprendí el motivo, con la excusa para venir a discutir sobre los incidentes que tenemos con su hijo, viene a ver a Paul por el que resulta que está coladita... Manda huevos[3]
A voice like that suddenly rings in my mind. I quickly shake my head.
No, no. Jealousy has no meaning. Plus, it should always be this strategy.
Ikemen's fishing bait strategy.
With Sylph as the big ikemen and me as the regular dude, women will flock to me, lalala.
[Hey, Rudi. How do you read this?]
As I sing in my mind, Sylph uses his finger to point at the opened page, looking up at me.
That gaze is too powerful. Emergency. It makes people want to hug and kiss him.
Resist!
[That's 『Snow avalanche』.]
[What does it mean?]
[It refers to a huge quantity of snow that has been gathered on a slope. When the slope is unable to sustain its own weight, it collapses. During the winter, there's snow that occasionally drops from the rooftop right? This is the bigger sized version.]
[Is that so....... Amazing. Have you seen it before?]
[Snow Avalanche? Of course...... not.]
I only saw it on television.
I let Sylph study the text book. At the same time, I can teach him how to read the book and write letters. Studying the language doesn't have any bad points.
Even though I don't know what the literacy rate is in this world, it definitely wouldn't be like Japan's near 100% literacy rate.
There is no magic spell that allows people to understand words in this world.
The lower the literacy rate, the more important it is to know it.
[I got it!!]
Sylph makes a triumphant shout. I watch him succeed at casting the the intermediate ranked magic, 『Ice pillar』. A large ice pillar grew out from the earth, glowing under the sunlight.
[You're very familiar with it now, hmm.]
[Yup!! ......But this book doesn't have what Rudi used?]
Sylph tilts his head and asks.
[Hm?]
I remember as he talks about the spell that I used. It's about the incident with the hot water.
I flip the magic textbook and point at two places.
[It's written in here. Waterfall and Heat Hands.]
[.......?]
[Use them together.]
[.......?]
He still tilts his head.
[How do you chant both at the same time?]
Crap. I said it based on my instincts. That's right, it didn't describe how to chant two different words at the same time.......
Now I can't laugh at Paul for being an instinctive type.
I demonstrated the voiceless incantations while casting 2 magic spells at the same time.
Sylph's eyes widen. Voiceless incantations is certainly classified as a higher ranked skill in this world. Roxy is unable to do it, and it's also said that only 1 teacher in the magic university is able to do it.
So I shouldn't teach voiceless incantation, but Roxy's melded magic spells.
I personally don't think it's too difficult, but achieving similar results should be enough.
[Teach me that.]
["That" refers to?]
[The one where you don't need to speak.]
But Sylph doesn't think it that way.
Of course, it appears that using 2 different magic spells at the same time is better than casting a single spell.
Hmm...... Well, if I really can't teach him, then he will choose melded magic by himself.
[Hmm, sure. Well, just use the same feeling when you're casting a magic spell. Gather the mana from your body to your finger tips and try casting the spell with chanting to replicate the feeling. Once you gather the mana, try to remember what spell you're using and squeeze it out from your hands. Try doing that. Start with water bullet.]
Did I teach him well?
I can't explain it to him very well.
Sylph closes his eyes while uttering a [hmmm] sound, twisting his body like he's doing a funny dance.
Trying to do something based on feeling is difficult.
Voiceless incantation is processed in the mind, meaning that different people will have their own methods of doing it.
I felt that foundations were important, so I let Sylph use incantations to cast magic for the whole year.
As expected, it should be harder to use voiceless incantations the more you use chanting. It's like using your right hand to do things till now and then changing to your left. It's an extremely difficult task to suddenly change.
[I succeeded! I succeeded Rudi!!]
But things didn't go the way I imagined.
Sylph happily shouts and casts the water bullet spell repeatedly.
Though he kept using chanting, perhaps it was only for one year. Just like removing the training wheels from a bicycle. The sensitivity of a youth. Or was it Sylph's innate talent?
[Good. Well then, let's try all the magic that you have learned using voiceless incantation once.]
[Yeah!!]
Well in any case, it will be easier for me to teach if he knows how to use voiceless incantations.
That's because I'm letting him do what I do.
[Hm?]
Suddenly, rain started to drizzle down.
I turn my head upwards. The skies have already been covered with dark clouds.
The next moment, heavy rain starts to fall.
Usually I pay close attention to the weather to ensure that we could reach home before it rains, but I was careless when Sylph managed to use voiceless incantation.
[Ah---- ah, this rain is really heavy.]
[Rudi, you can make rain, so can't you stop it?]
[Even though I can do that, we're already wet. Besides, the crops won't grow if they don't receive rainwater. I won't interfere with the weather unless there are complaints about the weather being terrible.]
We run towards the Greyrat household while we talk.
It's because Sylph's home is very far away.
Part 4
[I'm back]
[S-sorry for disturbing.....]
As I enter the gate, I see the maid Lilia with a big towel standing at the door.
[Welcome back, Master Rudeus...... and your friend. Hot water has been prepared. Before you catch a cold, please go up to the 2nd floor and dry your bodies. Master and Madam will be back soon, and I need to help them prepare. Are you fine by yourself?]
[No problem.]
Lilia probably predicted that we would come back wet from the heavy rain. Even though she doesn't speak much, especially towards me, she's definitely a capable maid. Even if I don't tell her, she still takes another big towel out as she sees Sylph.
We take off our shoes and walk barefooted, drying our hair and feet while climbing to the 2nd floor.
As soon as I enter the room, I see a huge barrel containing hot water. In this world, never mind showers, there isn't even the culture of bathtubs, only using this to rub and wash the body.
According to Roxy, there seem to be hot springs.
Well, for me, who doesn't like to shower, this is enough.
[Hm?]
As I strip naked, Sylph seems to be fidgeting around while blushing.
[What's wrong? If you don't take off your clothes, you will catch a cold, right?]
[EH? Mmm, mm.......]
But Sylph still doesn't move. Is he shy when taking his clothes off in front of others.......
Or does he not know how to take off his clothes by himself? It can't be helped since he's only 6 years old.
[Here, raise up your hands.]
[But....... Erm.......]
I let Sylph raise both of his hands and take his shirt off.
His white skin without any muscle tone is revealed before me. When I try taking his pants off, he grabs my hands.
[N-no......]
Is he feeling bashful of being seen by others?
I was the same when I was young. During kindergarten, I felt really embarrassed being seen by other kids of the same age when showering naked after swimming lessons.
But Sylph's hands are cold. If this drags on, he will really catch a cold.
I forcefully take hold and pull on his pants.
[S......Stop......]
As I reach for his underwear, he hits me on the head.
Sylph glares at me in tears as I look up.
[I won't laugh at you...]
[N-not about that...... N-NO.....,!!]
He is refusing earnestly. This is the first time I have seen him rejecting so much.
I feel a little shocked.
Is it something like that, a rule where elves cannot be seen naked?
If it's something like that, then it's not good to forcefully strip him.....
[I got it, I got it. Then you must promise. You need to change afterwards. Wet underwear is really uncomfortable, and if you get too cold, you might hurt your stomach.]
[Okay......]
I let my hand go, and Sylph nods in tears.
He's really cute. I really want to be in good terms with this cute kid.
Suddenly, I feel like playing a prank on him in my heart.
Isn't it unfair that I'm completely nude?
[A weakness!]
I pull down his underwear in one stroke.
Go!! The naked pendulum!
[E...........i. Nooo!]
[.............. Eh?]
Sylph screams.
The next instant, he covers his body.
At that moment, what entered into my eyes wasn't the commonly seen pure short sword.
Of course, it's not some ominously patterned dark blade.
What was there,
No, what wasn't there is ----------
..................... That's right. Nothing.
There isn't the thing that should be there.
I have seen it countless time in my past.
Sometimes there's mosaic, and sometimes there's none. That one day I would want to taste the real thing and let a black last white cannon paper handkerchief meet one day ----------- that is something that I just saw.[4]
Sylph is.
He...... is a she.
My mind goes blank.
Did I just do something that I can't laugh away......?
[Rudeus, what are you doing.......]
I vigorously snap my head back. Paul's standing there. When did he come back? Did he run after he heard the scream?
I don't move a muscle. Paul doesn't move either.
Sylph collapses into a heap at the side, completely naked.
And my hands are holding onto her underwear.
My cute baby boy is exerting its ferocious youth. I have already gone into a situation beyond justification.
The underwear from my hand drops onto the floor.
There's heavy rain outside, but I can only hear the underwear quietly falling.
Part 5
--Paul's POV--
When I finished my job and reached home, I saw my son attacking his childhood friend, a young girl.
I nearly scolded him without thinking it through, but I became cautious. Perhaps there was a hidden reason for this too. The previous failure cannot be repeated. In any case, I handed the sobbing girl over to my wife and maid, and use the hot water and cloth to wipe my son's body.
[Why did you do that?]
[I'm sorry.]
One year ago when I tried to teach him a lesson, he showed a will to never apologize, but he readily did so now. His attitude is quite strange too, like vegetables pickled in salt.
[I want to know the reason.]
[We got drenched. I was thinking the clothes should be taken off.....]
[But she didn't want to?]
[Yes.......]
[Father has said before that you must be gentle to girls, right?]
Rudeus doesn't have any explanations. What did I do when I was around his age?
I think there were words like [But] and [Except that].
I was a kid who always found excuses. My son really is splendid.
[Well, a kid like you will have some form of interest, but forcing is a no.]
[................... Yes, I'm sorry. I won't do it again.]
I felt a little sorry after looking at my son, who looked like he received a shock.
Being fond of women is definitely within my blood. I was so full of vigor and energy that once I see a cute girl, I would definitely try and go after them. Even though I have settled down now, I didn't know the meaning of "restraint" in the past.
This is probably hereditary.
It's perfectly logical that my son, who's full of reason, is probably agonizing over his instinct.
Why didn't I notice this before...... No, this isn't the time to sympathize with him.
I need to teach him with my experience.
[You shouldn't apologize to Father. You need to apologize to Sylph. Got it?]
[Sylph, erm...... Will she forgive me......]
My son falls into greater despair after saying that.
Come to think of it, my son has been very attached to that kid. The incident one year ago was also meant to protect her. In the end, he even got hit by his dad.
From then onward, he played with her everyday and protected her from other children. He never put down his sword techniques and magic spells, but he still spared time for her. And when he got close to her, he even gave his own treasured rod and magic textbook as gifts.
I can understand why he would feel down when he considers the possibility of getting hated by that kid.
I'm the same too. I will feel down if I get hated.
But don't you worry son. Based on my experience, there's a huge chance to turn this around.[5]
[Don't worry, it's fine. You have never done anything mean to her up until now. If you apologize with sincerity, she will definitely forgive you.]
My son's face brightens up a bit.
My son's so smart. Even if he commits this mistake, I'm sure he will definitely rescue this relationship.
Furthermore, he might even make use of this failure to capture her heart.
Such reliability and scariness.
After my son finished the bath, his first line to Sylph was:
[I'm sorry Sylph. Because your hair is very short, I always thought you were a boy!!]
I thought my son was such a perfect person, but he is surprisingly super dense in some areas.
This is the first time I thought that.
Part 6
--Rudeus's POV--
I apologized, consoled, and praised her, before I was finally forgiven.
Because Sylph is a girl, I'll call her Sylphy from now on.
Her full name seems to be Sylphiette.
I actually mistook such a cute girl for a boy. It looked like Paul was completely speechless over my discernment of things.[6]
I didn't think that a [You're actually a girl?!!] incident would actually happen.
What choice did I have? Her hair was even shorter than mine when we met. Even though her short hair isn't a trendy haircut like in the modern world, her hair isn't as short as a monk's. She has never dressed once like a girl. Light brown shirt and pants. That's all. If she wore a dress, I wouldn't mistake it either.
No...... Think rationally.
She gets bullied because of her hair color, so she definitely wanted to cut her hair short so it wouldn't be as visible. Because of the bullying, she definitely wanted to run too, so instead of a dress, pants would have been more convenient. Sylphy isn't very rich, so after making pants, there wouldn't be enough to make a skirt.
If we met 3 years later, I wouldn't make this mistake either.
I was completely into the idea that she's a cute guy, but actually there weren't any actions that seemed particularly androgynous.
If she....... Bleh, forget it.
Whatever I say is an excuse.
Since I know she's a girl, my attitude must change accordingly as well.
Whenever I see the tomboyish Sylphy, I always feel a little strange.
[Sy-Sylphy looks really cute. Isn't it better if your hair is longer?]
[Eh......?]
Perhaps if her appearance completely changes, my feelings can change too.
So I suggested that.
Even though Sylphy doesn't like her hair, her emerald hair shines underneath the sun. I really wish she keeps her hair long. It would be best if it's in a ponytail or twin tails.
[I don't want.......]
But from that day onwards, Sylphy grew wary of me.
She openly avoids it, especially when it concerns any physical contact.
I really felt a little shocked since she was so obedient in the past.
[Is that so. Then let's practice voiceless incantation magic today.]
[Okay.]
I straightened out my expression and hid my emotions. Sylphy only has me as her friend, so she can only play with me. Even though she has some reservations about me, she's still willing to play with me.
So I'll just let it be today.
Part 7
Right now, my capabilities in this world are basically like this:
『Sword Techniques』
Sword-God style： Elementary ranked
Water-God style ： Elementary ranked
『Attack Magic』
Fire system: Advanced ranked
Water system: Saint ranked
Wind system: Advanced ranked
Earth system: Advanced ranked
『Healing Magic』
Healing system： Intermediate ranked
Antidote system： Elementary ranked.
Healing Magic is categorized into 7 ranks as expected, and it comprises of 4 systems: Healing, Barrier, Antidote, and Divine Attack.
But unlike Attack Magic, there are no cool names like a Fire-Saint or a Water-Saint.
But there is something like a saint ranked Magic Healer or a saint ranked Antidote Healer.
Healing is just as it sounds: a magic spell that heals wounds. At first you can only heal scratches, but if you get to the emperor rank, it seems like you can even regenerate missing limbs. However, even if you get to the god rank, you can't revive dead things.
Antidote is also the same as it sounds: curing poison or sickness. At higher stages, you can even create poison or medicine to cure poisons. Status affliction related magic seems to be saint ranked and above, and very difficult to learn.
Barrier magic is magic that raises one's defense, creating a defensive wall. In simple terms, it's support magic. Even though I'm not very clear about the details, I roughly know that it can increase the speed of cell regeneration to treat light wounds, or create excess chemicals in the brain to lessen the feeling of pain. Roxy doesn't know how to use it.
The divine attack system seems to be magic that's effective against spirits or evil races, but it is kept secret by the Divine Priest Fighters. The magic university doesn't teach it either, so Roxy isn't very clear about it.
Even though I have never seen spirits before, it seems they are really ghosts in this world.
If you don't understand the logic, then you can't use voiceless incantation. It's really inconvenient.
Plus, even though there's a logic to Attack Magic, I don't know if the other magics also have their own set of logic. Although I know magic is something that seems to be able to do everything, I have no idea what I can change to achieve this.
For example, making something float up or sucking it into my hand, using my mental abilities to control it.
I feel like it can be replicated, but I'm not someone with telekinesis, so I don't know how to do it.
Just to add on, I am very hazy over the process of healing wounds. That is why I am unable to use voiceless incantation with Healing Magic. If I had the knowledge of a doctor, I might be able to use voiceless incantation with it.
The other types are also possible to replicate with magic if you know the relevant details.
Or perhaps if I participated in sports, my sword techniques can advance a step further.
When I think of it, I feel my previous life had wasted a lot of time meaninglessly.
No.
It's not a waste.
It's true that I didn't work or go to school, but I wasn't always hibernating, and I had many interests and played many games when others were busy working and studying.
The game's knowledge, experience, and way of thinking can be used here in this world.
It should be......!!
Though, it's not of any use now.
Part 8
This is an incident that happened during Paul's training.
[Haaaah.......]
I let out a sigh.
I thought my open sighing would make Paul angry, but he's grinning from ear to ear.
[Haha. Let me guess, Rudi. Are you feeling sad that you're being hated by Sylphiette?]
I didn't sigh because of that reason.
But even if that's not the reason, the incident with Sylphy is part of my troubles.
[That's right. My sword techniques aren't improving and I'm hated by Sylphy. Of course I feel like sighing.]
Paul smiles like a Cheshire cat and sticks the wooden sword into the ground. He leans on it and looks down at me.
It can't be that this guy is trying to treat me like a joke right.
[Father can help you think of an idea~]
He said something unexpected.
My mind starts moving like clockwork.
Father = Paul = Very popular. Zenith can be said to be a beautiful woman, and there's the incident with Mrs. Ada. Even Lilia, who got touched on the butt, was happy. Is there some sort of secret to not get hated by a girl?
The way of offline life?
Well, because he belongs to the instinctive type, I might not be able to understand it, but perhaps I can consider his suggestion.
[If you would please.]
[Hm, should I say it, hmmm~]
[Should I lick your boots?]
[No, hey, why are you so subservient suddenly?]
[If you don't tell me, I'll tell mother about you ogling Lilia.]
[This time it's high handedness...... Wait, what!? Did you see that!! Okay, I got it. It's my bad for putting on airs.]
I'm just baiting you with the ogling of Lilia......
Could it be ----- Adultery?
Ah well. I already said that this guy is super popular. Let me listen to the popular guy's lecture.
[Listen well, Rudeus. Women-]
[Yes.]
[Sometimes like men to be strong, but they like the weak parts about them too.]
[Oh.]
I heard something like this before. Motherly instinct?
[You have only shown your strength to Sylphiette, right?]
[Is that so? I didn't realize it myself.]
[Think about it carefully. If you're being compelled by someone who's apparently stronger and shows off their desire, what will happen?]
[I'd feel scared.]
[Right?]
He's talking about that day. When he became a she.
[So you also need to show off your weakness. Protect someone with your strong points while you let your weaknesses be protected by the other person. You must build that kind of relationship.]
[Oh!!]
That was easy to understand! It makes people feel like Paul isn't the instinctive type!
Just being strong isn't okay. Just being weak isn't right either. You must be both to get popular!!
[But how do you show off your weakness?]
[That's easy. Aren't you being troubled now?]
[Yes.]
[Just tell your bottled up troubles to Sylphiette and it will be done. Tell her that you're feeling low and very troubled because she has been avoiding you.]
[Then what will happen next?]
Paul laughs.
A malicious smile.
[If it goes smoothly, she will approach you on her own. She might even console you. Then you will be revived. No one will be unhappy when you get your spirits up.]
[!!]
So that's the answer. Using my attitude to control someone's feelings......[7]
Incredible. But the plan might not succeed right?
[B-but if it doesn't work?]
[Find me again. I'll teach you the next step.]
There's actually a 2nd trick. Schemer. This guy really is a schemer!![8]
[I see. Then, I'm going off!!]
[Go ahead.]
Paul shoos me with his hand. I run off burning with anxiety.
[What did I teach to my 6 year old son......]
A voice seems to come from behind.
Part 9
I reached the huge tree too early. Sylphy's not here yet.
I usually bring a wooden sword along with me and wipe my body before I come here, but I'm full of sweat right now. What should I do? I have no choice. I should start practicing in my mind. I swing my wooden sword in my mind, doing combat. First I should show off my strength. Then my weakness. Weakness. How should I do that? That's right, I need to make myself look despondent. Then, what next? The timing, hm. Should I do it all of a sudden? That would be too abrupt. Maybe I should adjust accordingly to the flow of the conversation. Can I do it? No, I must do it.
I swing the sword as I think in confusion. I don't know when my grip suddenly turned weak. The sword slips out of my hand.
[Guuh.....]
The sword lands where Sylphy is at. My mind turns blank.
W-what should I do? What should I say?
[W-what's wrong Rudeus......?]
Sylphy looks at me, her eyes wild. What, asking me why I came here?
[Erm, Haa...... haa, I'm just feeling it's regrettable or something if I can't see Sylphy's cute expressions.]
[N-no, I'm not talking about that. Your sweat.]
[Haa...... Haaaa.... Ah, sweat? What.....?]
I pant and approach her, but she shows a frightened expression and retreats. Just like before, she doesn't want me to approach her and backs off.
Even though I'm so smitten by you in this way, you pull back in this way.
I'm just kidding.
[.......]
I wipe the perspiration off my forehead. My breathing's becoming stable. Good.
I display an expression full of stricken grief, place my hand on the tree, and make a figure of self-reflection. My shoulders drop down, and I sigh heavily.
[Hah...... Recently, Sylphy is really cold......]
Silence persists for a while.
Is that enough? Is that enough Paul? Should I have been weaker, or was it too fake?
[!!]
My hand gets gripped tightly from behind. I feel the soft and gentle warmth. I turn back, and Sylphy is right there.
W-Woahhh!
So close. Sylphy hasn't been so close for a very long time. Paul-san! I made it!!
[Because, recently Rudeus, is a little strange.......]
Mmm. I am aware of that point.
Needless to say, I didn't treat her the same way recently.
From Sylphy's point of view, perhaps my attitude has changed a lot. Like knowing that the opposite person is a wealthy woman searching for a marrying partner.[9]
She will definitely feel uncomfortable. But what sort of attitude should I use?
I can't do it if it was in the past. I'm with such a cute girl, how can I not be tense?
The same age and a cute young girl. I really don't know how to get along with her.
If I'm at the adult standpoint, maybe if Sylphy was older, I might be able to use some knowledge from Eroge and handle it. If she was a boy, I could use the experience when I was with my younger brother.
But she's the osananajimi, and she's a girl. Of course, I played games that get along with girls in H ways, but that's nothing more than a delusion. Also, I simply don't want to have a relationship with her in that manner. Sylphy's just too young.
She's not in my AT field of defense. [10]
It's temporarily something like that. But I'm looking forward to the future!!
Let's throw that all away first. She's a kid who's being bullied. Nobody stood on my side when I was bullied, so I hope to become her companion. Regardless of a boy or girl, this is the only thing that will not change. But it's difficult if I want to treat her the same way as before. I'm also a boy, and hope to build a good relationship with girls.
For tomorrow!!
Urgh..... I don't understand. What should I do? If I had just asked Paul about these matters.
[.......Sorry, but I don't actually hate Rudeus.]
[S-Sylphy......]
After I show off an expression of uselessness, Sylphy strokes my head.
And she smiles at me with relief. A gentle smile.
My heart skips a beat.
Even though it's apparently my fault, she apologizes to me.
I grab her hand tightly.
Sylphy looks up at me, blushing.
[So, can we be like before?]
The effect from asking this sentence when she looks up at me is powerful.
Enough to make my heart determined.
I am determined.
That's right, she hopes for the usual.
To maintain the same as before, I need to treat her just like before, as much as before.
To let her not be afraid and awkward, I need to hide the fact that I'm a guy to get along with her.
It can only be that. I should only be that.
Let's do it.
A donkan[11] protagonist.
