Chapter 372 – Birth of the Archmage #2

After breakfast at Bella’s mansion, Rebecca and I left the mansion and headed to Ninggard’s laboratory.
It was because the teachers who would teach us were staying at the institute.
I mean Lawrence the Archmage and Pamela the Swordmaster.

Me and Rebecca walked downtown together, sharing stories of each other’s accomplishments.

“Luke, have you gathered enough magical powers to become an archmage now?”
“It can be said that the amount of magical energy has far exceeded the sufficient level. I think I will be able to control it beyond the stage of implementing ether with prayer magic.

The condition to become a great wizard in another world is to embody and control ether.
Back in the days when my magic coefficient was 6,000, I was learning how to embody ether.
At that time, I was learning the etheric materialization method almost perfectly, but what if it is now that my magic power has increased?

‘It’s not the end of realizing ether. With a magic coefficient of 20,000, it seems possible to control ether. With this amount of magic power, it’s enough to become a great wizard.’

As for the theory of origin magic that implements and controls ether, I learned all about it while receiving lessons from Lawrence. Before, it was just a lack of mana, so I had a hard time mastering prayer magic.

The magical coefficient of 6,000 is the minimum amount of magical energy that can materialize ether.
How can you not eat hard to learn magic only by meeting the standard of magic power?
However, if it was far beyond the standard of a great wizard, he would be able to cast prayer magic with ease.

“Rebecca, do you think you can use an aura blade?”
“Aura Blade? You can use it right away if you want to. I’m just holding back because I want to show Master how to use the Aura Blade first.”
“Good.”
“Both of us went well! It’s all thanks to the magic charge.”

Rebecca responded that she was no big deal, and she grinned. She seemed quite confident in pulling out her aura blade. In fact, she too would excel if her martial arts talents were cherished by Pamela, her sword master, as her apprentice.

Once the lack of mana is resolved, nothing can stop the two of us.
The best couple in the world will be born.

“Why don’t we practice in the same place today? I want to see you wield the blade. Ask the masters to match the location.”
“Okay. I’d like to see what it’s like to be a great wizard.”

Since both of us were nearing the end of our training, Rebecca and I decided to practice in the same place today. It was to show each other the achievements of the practice so far.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

Seeing Rebecca, who has grown up with her since her bottom days, uses an aura blade, her heart feels magnificent. Rebecca must be thinking the same thing as me.

The two of them had a conversation, and before they knew it, they arrived at the laboratory in Nygard. Delia is still staying at Bella’s mansion, so Lawrence and Pamela are the only people she will meet at her lab.

Lawrence and Pamela were waiting for us in the lab’s front yard.

“You guys are here. You must have finished recharging your magic power.”
“Rebecca, you’ve already been off training for two days. How much have you and your husband increased your magical powers?”

Lawrence and Pamela looked at us curiously. It seems that the masters were also curious about what happened while we stopped practicing. Even for those who had reached the absolute stage, magical power charging was an unknown territory.

“I’m also curious. How did the magic coefficient change for both of you? The last time I measured it, Luke, I remember your magic coefficient was 6,000.”
“The magic attribute coefficient, which was 6,000, has increased considerably. Rebecca’s magic attribute coefficient also increased significantly at around 1400.”

Rebecca and I answered the teachers’ questions honestly.

“My current magic attribute factor is 24000.”
“I’m 5800!”

It’s like saying to the Nameks, ‘My combat strength is 530,000!’ Like the space monsters that say, “We were confident. The teachers also reacted with fright when they heard our magic coefficient.

“What?!”

Took!

The quarterstaff fell from Lawrence’s startled hands. She was staggering her body as if Pamela had also gone vertigo. Our magic coefficient was so great that even the absolute masters lost their composure.

“Eh, your magic coefficient is 24,000? What kind of a god in the heavens are you?!
“Rebecca! Don’t joke! Does it make sense that you gained the level of magical power of a sword master in just two days? Even if you eat all the elixirs in the world, you can’t grow that fast!”

There was only one way to convince the Masters who reacted in disbelief.
I used the measurement magic and showed the magic coefficients of Rebecca and I directly to the teachers in numbers.

“Ansuz.”

-24060
-5800

When the numbers they really talked about were revealed through the measurement magic, the teachers were at a loss for words. In particular, in my case, I possessed an amount of magic attribute that could never be matched by the combined magic coefficient of Lawrence and Pamela.

“Ah ah ah ah ah…”
“That makes sense…! My thoughts were short, disciple!”

The masters trembled when they saw the magic coefficient that had increased like a monster and started talking to us.

“This, is this the power of magical power charging? In just two days, your magic coefficient has quadrupled.”
“Yes, it has quadrupled exactly. A high-ranking dreamer like me rarely experiences a phenomenon in which magic power doubles when recharging. Having experienced that phenomenon twice, the magic coefficient has quadrupled.”
“Magic power doubles…? Then, if we continue to induce that phenomenon, we can increase the magical coefficient infinitely?”
“Theoretically, you can increase your magic power at a similar speed to the expansion of the universe. However, it is difficult to induce the phenomenon at will because there are strict restrictions.

It’s embarrassing to explain the limitations of special magic power charging in such an open place. It was hard to talk about sex in the yard with the lab staff staring at us.

I turned to another topic.
That’s Delia’s thing.

“What are you celebrating?”
“Delia. Delia’s magic factor has also increased to the level of an archmage. When I checked in the morning, the magic factor was exactly 6,000. It’s something to celebrate.”
“That’s right! Come to think of it, my daughter also enjoys the same effect of magic recharge. Delia’s magic coefficient has reached 6,000!”

When Delia’s growth was told, Lawrence responded with delight. It was good news for her daughter that she also pleased her father. Lawrence thanked me as if she had met the benefactor of her life.

“Thank you! Thank you so much! I thought that my daughter wouldn’t be able to become an archmage because her magical powers were lacking… But now she has hope. Delia will be able to become an archmage if she learns origin magic from her youth. Take it.”
“Thank you, please do me a favor.”
“What kind of request?”
“Today, Pamela-sama, please have a lesson. I want to see Rebecca wielding the Aura Blade from the side. I also want to show off my achievements. Now I have enough magic power to handle Ether.”
“There is nothing difficult about that kind of request.”

Lawrence accepted my offer to practice with Rebecca.
On the spot, Lawrence brought up Pamela about her joint training, and Pamela also accepted her offer.

“These young people want to show each other an achievement. What do you think, Pamela?”
“Anyway, my apprentice should be able to implement the Aura Blade now. Since we’ve reached the final stage of training, it doesn’t matter if you show it to your apprentice. I think we can stimulate each other.”
“Then let’s get out of the city now. The place I use as a training ground is outside the city.”
“I get it.”

In the end, we decided to train together.
Rebecca and I followed our teachers out of the city. Today, you will have to implement ether yourself, so if you train in the city, there will be casualties. I had no choice but to take Rebecca out of town.

A desolate plain that stretches beyond the castle walls.
Having settled in a place quite far from the city, we started training right away.

“Rebecca, you come first, show me your blade.”
“Me first? Can’t I just show you the results of your training? Like you’re using prayer magic while I pull out the aura blade.”
“Praying magic devastates the surrounding area when used. If I use prayer magic, it will get in the way when you pull out the aura blade. It’s the first time you’re using the aura blade, so you have to concentrate.”
“Well, if that’s the case! I’ll show you the results of training first.”

It was Rebecca who showed the results of the training first. It was because the use of prayer magic could cause damage to the surroundings and interfere with Rebecca. No matter how much mana overflows, I’m going to use the blade for aura, so shouldn’t I concentrate?

Like a parent praying for the success of the test takers, I gave up my seat to Rebecca first.
Rebecca took Pamela’s guidance and began implementing the Aura Blade.

“Master! I’m the first to show you the Aura Blade.”
“That’s great. If you can show your skills first, you’ll be able to focus more. Remember what I said about the aura blade?”
“Yes. The state of unity where the warrior and the sword become one. I said that the Aura Blade can be realized only when they are united.”
“You remember my teaching. Then, reach the state of union now and implement the Aura Blade.”

The realm of unity?
Become one with the sword?

I don’t know, but even in the world of unmanned people, it seemed that I had to gain a special realization when implementing the Aura Blade. Rebecca drew her sword from her waist and concentrated and energized it.

“I will implement it!”

Before long, an aura flowed from Rebecca’s long curved sword. The aura that flowed out as thin as a thread became denser as Rebecca concentrated her mind into a blade-like shape. Hundreds or thousands of aura bundles were united to create an aura blade.

I was watching the birth of Aura Blade in real time.
It was on a different level than when the Great Warrior Lephiel or the Barbarian old man used the Aura Blade. Rebecca’s aura blade was no joke compared to the other aura blades.

“Is that a club? Is that a sword?”
“The Aura Blades are so packed together that they look like clubs.”
“Anyway, that means Rebecca succeeded in creating an aura blade.”

Lawrence and I, who were watching, were taken aback.

In the end, Rebecca succeeded in implementing the Aura Blade in front of me.
It was obviously a thrilling situation, but I don’t think it’s time to celebrate yet.
Even after seeing the disciple’s Aura Blade, Pamela seemed to have more to say.

Pamela called out to Rebecca.

“Student! Make your aura blade bigger! Aura blade that can be realized with a magic coefficient of 6,000 isn’t like that! Believe in your talent and do your best!”
“…Yes!”

Hearing Pamela’s cry, Rebecca unleashes her full strength as a soldier. It was Rebecca who started to increase the size of her blade by gritting her teeth.
The 6,000 magical coefficients accumulated through magical charging were concentrated on creating an aura blade.

“Aaaaa!!”

Rebecca’s Aura Blade increased in size and stretched straight into the sky without hesitation.
Lawrence and I were at a loss for words when we saw the aura blade extending like a woman’s stick.

“Yes, boss! I’ll come over there and the blade will pierce the clouds!”
“It really looks like it’s going to break through.”

The Aura Blade stopped stretching after reaching a length of 30M.

Now, Rebecca has succeeded in creating an Aura Blade the size of a large building.
The huge lightsaber that Swordmaster Pamela had embodied was also embodied in Rebecca’s hand.

“You’ve grown splendidly. Disciple.”
“Yes, Master. This is all thanks to Luke.”
“Yes, it seems that you met Giyeon in the outside world.”

Rebecca and Pamela made faces full of emotion as they watched the aura blades soar.
Even I, who was watching Rebecca, couldn’t help but cry from her eyes.
Lawrence smiled at the tears trickling down my cheeks.

“It’s impressive…”
“Are you crying right now? You’re a sensitive young man.”

Wouldn’t there be no choice but to shed tears?

It was a newbie prosecutor who smelled dirty even when we first met.
You’ve grown to the point where you can pull out an aura blade before you know it.

Now you are a worthy deceased, Rebecca!
