Otome Game Mob Villain - Chapter 130

‘Mother, how are you feeling today?”

‘Heh. Thank you for your daily support, Rid. Thanks to Sandra and the magic medicine, I’m feeling much better. Besides, I feel a little better since I started taking the new medicine.”

Mother answered my words with a smile.

I have been visiting my mother’s room every day since I returned to Bardia.

“I am glad. was also worried that this visit to the Imperial Capital might be a bit long.”

‘Yes, he said something like that, didn’t he? I see.”

Mother seemed to feel that Father had changed a little from the past, and this time she was smiling happily.

Then, as if remembering, Mother looked at me with a huff and said,

‘Yes, that was right, I read the letters from the three of them, including Princess Fara. It seems you were very active in Renalute. …… Could you tell me more about what you did? ……?”

“I’m sorry, …… mother. I have a magic class with Ms. Sandra later today, may I come back another time ……. ……?”‘

As we were talking, I sensed a slightly black aura in mother’s expression, and I mentioned Sandra’s name as if to escape.

In fact, I have a class scheduled with Sandra later on, so I don’t have much time to talk to her.

Mother looked a little disappointed.

‘So …… it can’t be helped then. But I will ask you about it slowly next time.”

‘Ha, yes. I understand. ……”

What on earth was written in the letter that Fara and the others wrote to mother?　

From the look of her, it didn’t seem like anything bad was written in the letter.

At that moment, I heard a woman’s voice from behind me.

‘I am sorry to interrupt you. It’s almost time to go, Master Rid, so let’s move on to the training grounds.’

‘Oh, yes. Oh, okay, Sandra.”

The one who approached me was Sandra.

She is now the primary doctor for mother’s magic depletion.

So, these days, she is often in my mother’s room.

I nodded at Sandra’s words and bowed to my mother, saying, “Well, I’m off.

She smiled and said, “Have a good day.” Sandra and I left her room and headed for the training grounds.

◇ 

When we arrived at the room with the blackboard near the training grounds, I turned to Sandra and said,

“Sandra-sensei, today you are going to teach me about the attribute magic of earth and wood .”

“Master …… rid, you are up to something again, aren’t you?”　

Today is the first day of Sandra’s magic class in a long time.

She’s now in a situation where she’s like a doctor to mother, but she doesn’t neglect my classes in between.

I’m sure it’s largely because she enjoys it so much.

She looks me in the eye and lets out a small sigh.

“Huh. …… Well, that’s all right. But you are asking me about the difficult attributes of earth and tree attribute magic.”

“What do you mean by difficult attributes?”

Sandra glanced happily at my question and began to explain while writing on the blackboard.

“I haven’t explained it , but did you know that there are two types of magic, ‘transformational magic’ and ‘manipulative magic,’ Master Rid?”

“Ummm… ……. I don’t know.”

I showed a thoughtful pretense and then answered in a way that was clear and understandable.

The first is the “magic of transformation” and the second is the “magic of manipulation”.

“It is said that there are ten kinds of magical attributes, including non-attribute attribute. Of these, there are two types of ‘manipulative magic’: ‘earth’ and ‘tree’. It is said that these two types of attributes must be in touch with the earth, even indirectly, when they are activated externally by attack magic, etc.”

“Really?　Is that so?”

I was stunned when I heard Sandra’s explanation.

When I think back, it is true that when I tried activating all attributes before, all other attribute magic could be activated from the tip of my hand that I held out.

However, only “earth” and “tree” seemed to originate from the ground beneath my feet.

As I was lost in thought, Sandra cleared her throat.

“……I am wondering what you are thinking about, but I will continue with my explanation. The magic of the attributes other than earth and wood is activated by ‘transforming the magic power of the performer as it is into the attribute’. The earth and tree magic is activated by ‘manipulating and transforming the existing objects with the magic power of the magician.’

“.. In other words, “transformation magic” he “transforma while the “transformation magic” is the magic that can be activated by feeding magic power to manipulate existing things. Is that correct?’

Sandra nodded in reply to my words.

“It is as you say. However, there are only a few people who can use both trees and earth , and I have never seen anyone who can handle them at a high level. It’s an attribute magic that still has a lot of room for research.”

‘I see. ……”

After listening to the explanation, I was thinking about my newfound knowledge of “manipulative magic.”

As for earth magic, Sandra was probably right that a large amount of earth is moved by magic power.

But what about wood?　

I remember that the “tree spear,” which I had tried to use in the past, had moved forward with the pointed tip of a tree growing out from under my feet.

But my feet were in a grassy field and there were no trees.

At that moment, I suddenly remembered the phrase, “Magic is life energy.”

If you pour life energy in the form of magic power into grass and trees, you can “promote growth” and manipulate them, which is the basis of tree attribute magic.　

Furthermore, they can hide in the shadows with dark attribute magic.

There must be many things that can be done with tree attribute magic.

As I was lost in thought, I thought I heard Sandra’s voice and I looked up.

“Kyaaaaaaaaa⁉”

“Aaaaaaaa⁉”

When I looked up, I saw Sandra’s face in front of me, and we both screamed in surprise at the same time.

I think this had happened before.

“Oh, you surprised me…… I was worried because you didn’t respond at all when I tried to talk to you . ……”

‘Ahahaha…… sorry to surprise you …….’ I was lost in thought and didn’t recognize your voice, . Sandra …….”

I responded to her words with a dry chuckle and a batty feeling.

Sandra put her hand on her chest as she heard my response and took a deep breath to calm herself down.

When she calmed down, she grinned and said, ”

‘So …… what are you up to?　master . Rid?”

‘Yeah, sort of. I’d like to ask . Sandra’s opinion, and I’m wondering if you”d like to help me out. I have something I want to try, and I was wondering if I could ask you to join me in the back of the mansion, where it is less crowded.”

Sandra’s eyes were blazing, but she made a gesture of deliberate annoyance and then said in a playful manner.

“I’m awed,……, but I would respectfully decline if you were to confess your love to me, wouldn’t I?

‘I don’t …… think I’ …… would ever do such a thing.　I have Fara,……, you know.”
