Chapter 123 – Settlement (2)

“Resonance, a characteristic of the lintbloom core. Didn’t you say you could learn it?”

Up until now, a huge amount of mana had been used only by simply shooting magic.

Now is the time to use it to increase power.

There is also a method called charge chanting, but even this has limitations.

Carla, who heard me, had a blank expression for a moment, and then she jumped up and asked again.

“Are you going to learn?!”

“Yes.”

“Hurray!”

Carla raises her arms and shouts hurray.

It seems that it is not unusual for her ruby-colored eyes to shine brightly.

“Is it that good?”

“Sure! With this, Master will be born with the same constitution as the founder of the Lindelheit family, learn the Lindelheit family’s breathing method, and inherit the Lindelheit family’s vision, right? How could you not like it!”

I know what Carla is trying to say. However, it is also true that somehow, when I see him running around like that, I just want to play around.

He nodded her head, making the most sullen expression possible.

“I see. Karla saw me as a tool for her family’s revival….”

“… To?”

Carla is startled as if she had a hunch that something was wrong with her.

Of course, she has no intention of stopping here.

She continued as she lightly squeezed her chest like a wounded person.

“I thought you were really nice to Carla. Although she was a slave, I don’t think she treated me like a slave. But she’s not Carla. She sees me as just a tool….”

“Lord, master? No! It’s not like that! How dare I think of you that way! Misunderstanding!”

Carla, startled by her, hurriedly grabbed her arm inside her, and quickly shook her head.

Whenever that happens, looking at her fluttering platinum-colored hair, her smile is about to pop out without my knowledge.

I forced the corners of her mouth down and jerked her hair like a pout! She did and turned.

“Huh! Done. I’m not playing with Carla anymore. All she needs is Elisha.”

“Yes? I… Yo. This?”

Embarrassedly, Elisha, who was pointed out while examining the situation, stupidly pointed at herself.

She nodded once and put her head in Elisha’s arms.

“Okay. Elisha you.”

“Uh… Uhm. That is….”

Elisha was taken aback at the sight of me rubbing against her chest like a child.

She looked at Karla’s restless look, and she smirked.

“Oh? Karla, how could you say such harsh things to Yandel?”

“What?! Because it’s not! It’s not good because the family’s vision continues, it’s good because the master is dyed in the color of Lindelheit!”

Oh.

This is such a shameful word.

Actually, Karla is distraught, and it seems that she doesn’t even know what she was talking about.

However, Elisha didn’t care about Karla’s attitude and she hugged my head.

Then he whispered to me in a sweet voice, as if it was the right time.

“Yandel. My you Were you in a lot of pain? Don’t worry. I am different from Carla. As for the mage tower, only Master cares about it. I will put you first.”

“Elisha you… !”

As if she had been NTRed, Carla trembled at her sense of betrayal.

But did Elisha rather like Karla’s appearance?

Even after that, she showed off her affection and skinship, and whenever that happened, Karla stamped her feet and cried.

Then, sometimes, as if begging, he called me in a mournful voice.

“I am the owner….”

“Huh.”

“Ahhhhh!!”

Carla pretends not to know and makes an expression as if the world has collapsed as she clings to Elisha.

She was able to start training only after teasing her for a long time.

***

“Hey… Then, I will explain the principle of resonance from now on.”

“… Would you like to explain in an embrace?”

“Yes.”

Private training room inside the dormitory. Sitting in the middle of it, he gently brushed the back of the sobbing Karla.

Every movement of her hand quickly calms the crying.

“Sorry. Stop because the reaction was so funny….”

“I’m fine now that the master has recognized me like this. … Elisha, wait and see.”

Carla glared at Elisha in the seat next to her. Her temperament is quite brutal.

Actually, Elisha just shrugged her shoulders and let it go.

Carla let out a sigh and opened her mouth.

“Hmmmm. Anyway, from now on, I’m going to teach you the characteristic of the Lindbloom core, resonance… Previously. Master, how much do you know about resonance?”

“I don’t know. I just know it’s literally resonance.”

Even at H&A, I was able to learn how to breathe Lindbloom.

Of course, I’ve opened the explanation window for that characteristic, resonance, at least once.

“Isn’t it literally resonating with the outer mana and the core, drawing more mana than I have?”

“That’s right! Then do you know how to draw in mana from the surroundings and why you use Resonance instead of Charge Chant?”

“… You have to learn from now.”

Such details do not appear in the game. That’s why there are still a lot of things to learn at the academy.

Carla continued her words with a cute clearing of her throat.

“Then, I will start explaining from here, Master. Feel free to ask questions about anything you don’t understand! First of all, what do you mean….”

According to Carla, the Lint Bloom core is quite unusual compared to other mana cores, she said.

I’m not talking about performance, but the basic structure itself is a bit different.

A normal mana core is not an organ that actually exists, but a virtual organ made out of a heart.

This is to utilize the uncertainty of mana, which is both real and non-existent.

For example, if I release all my mana, I can fill up the training room I am currently sitting in.

But how could that amount of mana be contained in the small body of me?

Simple.

Mana certainly exists, but it does not always maintain its substance.

That’s why the ridiculous thing of putting a lake in one cup is possible.

It is only natural that the mana core becomes a virtual organ, given its role in safely containing a huge amount of mana.

However, the Lintbloom core is a little different.

Because the mana core, originally supposed to be a virtual organ, is half materialized in the form of a ring surrounding the heart.

Thanks to this, mana, which normally only responds to will, is now able to respond to the body as well.

That’s why when I start to use my mana in earnest, I become strongly conscious of my heartbeat.

“It is a structure that can be said to be somewhat deformed, but there is an unavoidable reason for this.”

“Is it because of the constitution of the first family head?”

“Right! But. The owner also had the same inability to respond to mana.”

Carla nodded as if she understood.

Well, I don’t have a high understanding of the nature of being unable to respond to mana like the first family head.

Still, there are some things I felt while learning the Lint Bloom breathing method for the first time.

At the same time as the heart beating in a different way than before, I felt a refreshing feeling even though it was weak.

I wonder if the feeling of mana being pulled by the heartbeat is the root of resonance.

Carla continued her explanation as if to confirm my guess.

“Sijo didn’t feel mana, so of course he couldn’t handle it. But the mana itself in the body was too much.”

“You got a hint here. No matter how much mana is said to respond to human will, in the end, if it is contained in the human body, I wonder if it can be handled with the body, not the will.”

“The conclusion that came after such an idea was to tune the vibrations in her body and resonate with Mana.”

“Where is the strongest jump in our body?”

Heart.

In the end, the Lindbloom breathing method is to make the heart beat in a special way, resonating the mana in and around the body with the body.

Even if the will doesn’t respond, it won’t be able to stop the feeling of the body directly.

If that was the case, it would have been something like mana immunity or insufficiency rather than insensitivity.

Anyway, if you felt it with your body even once, that’s enough. From now on, I just need to feel and handle mana in the same way.

Elisha, who was listening to her, sighed and shook her head.

“This is really nonsense. In theory it’s possible, but how did you actually implement it? It’s like saying that you’re going to use the paper as a sword because your fingers are cut on the thin paper.”

“So, Sijo-sama is great! And the owner, who is born with the same constitution, will be great!”

… I’m coming out of here?

Carla hugged me, who was a little flustered, and rubbed her large breasts against her upper body.

Seeing that, Elisha smiled and nodded her head.

“It should be. No, it should be even greater. Yandel has me and my master, right?”

“It’s a bit burdensome.”

“But you can do it. Because we will make it.”

At Elisha’s confident demeanor, Carla slightly puffed out her cheeks and nodded her head.

“I hate to see traces of other magic… But it’s good for the master, so I can’t help it.”

Then she cleared her throat a couple of times and cleared her throat.

“Hmmmm. Anyway, now that I know that the root of the Lindbloom breathing method lies in resonance, how do I use it?”

“… I guess you know a little bit about it? Doesn’t it attract more mana from the outside by maximizing the resonance through the heartbeat?”

But this time, too, Carla denied it with an ambiguous expression.

“It’s a bit different. From a broader perspective, that is, from an outsider’s point of view, it looks that way, but the reality is a bit different.”

“Different?”

“Yes. So, how is it different from a charge chant?”

“Ah.”

Come to think of it, the charge chant is also a skill that delays the spell and hits more mana.

No matter how much external mana is brought in through resonance, it is just a charge chant that consumes little mana.

However, charge chanting has limitations.

The components of magic are the same, but only mana is beaten, so it is true that there is a limit to strengthening.

If you inject mana beyond the limit, the magic itself will collapse. Or runaway.

“What I’m going to explain from now on is the difference between charging chanting and strengthening through resonance.”

“I guess that’s the point.”

“As expected, Master! You feel good! Right. This is really important content, so you should listen carefully.”

Carla, who had said that far, gently stretched out her palm in the air.

“Tinder.”

Hwareuk.

Very familiar basic magic. Tinder becomes a small spark and dances on Carla’s hand.

“This is just the magic I used.”

Carla extinguished the fire by squeezing her fists and immediately gathered more mana.

“Tinder.”

Roaring!

A fire that could be twice as large as the one before is burning.

“Is this a charge chant?”

“Yes. It has been strengthened to the limit. If you pour more magic power here, it’s just a pot! And explode.”

Carla, who had extinguished the fire by waving her hand this time, reached out her hand again.

Then she glared in front of her with a serious expression.

There’s no way a middle-ranking wizard would concentrate so deeply just to use one basic magic.

Just as expected.

Pounding!

My heart started beating on its own as I began to comprehend what was happening in front of my eyes.

The illusion that ripples are brewing in the world around Karla.

Perhaps because they have the same core, I feel a mysterious attraction to the current Karla.

And.

“Tinder!”

Whoaaah-!!

A flame of a size that could hardly be called basic magic heated up the inside of the training room.

But there was something else that caught my attention.

It was a strange sensation, as if all the mana around Karla was burning itself for that magic.

“This is a magic enhanced by resonance. How about it? Is it different?”

“Yes… It’s hard to explain what’s different, but it’s not just adding more mana. This is for sure.”

As she blankly nodded, Karla stretched out her chest proudly.

“Absolutely! It resonates with mana, and at the same time it resonates with magic itself.”

“Is that possible?”

“I did it because it was possible. Master will soon be able to do it too.”

“… How?”

“By feeling? Unlike Iris-sama’s element combination, there’s no formula! Just do it and you’ll do anything!”

Carla, who said that, smiled brightly.

Like someone who has no doubt that I will fail.

“Eh, Elisha….”

Feeling burdened, she asked for help, but Elisha just shrugged her shoulders.

“I told you last time, you? The Lindelheit family is just a bloodline fraud.”

“…….”

That’s what it meant

I got it perfectly.
