Chapter 190 - Lost in a Tropical Jungle

When Negi was woke up and looking around him, he saw Shirou sitting not far him in front of the bonfire grilling a partridge on the fire. Next to Shirou sat Chachamaru who was in sleep mode so that she could conserve the energy in her body while simultaneously absorbing the magical energy around her, automatically using the latest gadget created by Hakase which had just been installed in her body, right before the members of Ala Alba left for England.

Shirou, who immediately realized that his brother had just woke up, stopping grilling the chicken meat and then walking over to Negi whose face still looked pale and his body looked weak from having just woken up from a long stupor.

"Shirou-Nii how long I have been unconscious?" Asked Negi when he saw his older brother who was already in front of him checking his temperature using the back of his hand.

"You've been unconscious for more than a day Negi right after I healed you using Elixir and for now it's better if you stay quiet for a while to recuperate then after that I suggest that you do a little exercise by practicing your magic moves in the shore of a small lake not far from here. So that the excess magical energy inside your body will be gone," Shirou replied with a smile because finally his younger brother had woken up and could move once more.

"Excess magical energy? So that's the reason why my body feels healthy and sick at the same time," Negi said as he touched his forehead to feel whether his body was hot or not. "And my current body temperature is as hot as the temperature of a stove! It was a sign of a perso who experiencing an excess magical energy.

inside his or her body what exactly a thing that causing me to experience this kind of thing?"

"The elixir I gave you to heal the wounds on your body that caused you to experience an excess of magical energy, Negi," Shirou took out the water bottle that was inside the bag that was attached to his waist and handed the bottle to Negi, because he realized that Negi was currently look very thirsty.

"You shouldn't know that Elixir is a healing potion of the highest level, which can heal all diseases and wounds and can also be used as a potion to restore the lost magical energy. So it's not a strange thing if you are currently experiencing an excess magical energy."

"Well, when I think iin, my right shoulder got a hole from the stone spear attack from Fate Averruncus And the only way to heal me is just by using Konoka-san's magic, or the Elixir made by Shirou-Nii," Negi took the water bottle Shirou had given him and drank the water inside. After drinking the water in the bottle, Negi's pale face began to look healthy again and Negi's dry lips became fresh once again.

"Phew this water makes me feel alive!" Negi said with a face that looked very relieved as he returned the water bottle in his hand to Shirou. "Shirou-Nii have you been taking care of me only with Chachamaru-san? Where are our other friends? Are they going somewhere?"

"There was a little problem that happened when the other Ala Alba members went out of Megalomesembria, Chachamaru is currently be with us because she was ordered to track my whereabouts and then help me by Evangeline," Shirou said with a face that looks a bit sad because of all the bad thing that happened when they are all had just arrived at the Mundus Magicus. "But you don't have to worry, Negi. Because I'm sure that soon we'll be reunited with the rest of Ala Alba."

Inside the fake/artificial subconscious that resides in Chachamaru's memory circuit. The consciousness of the android who had surpassed any artificial intelligence in this world, was examining in detail the memory recording of the last conversation between her and Evangeline. When Chachamaru was in sleep mode.

The contents of the memories that Chachamaru was looking at were as follows:

On the edge of a fairly large desert, which is quite close to the residence of Jack's Rakan of the Thousand Swords. Chachamaru is preparing to go to see Shirou and currently Chachamaru is saying goodbye to Evangeline.

"I'll go first Master."

"Well, be careful while you're on the road," Evangeline said who was currently in her adult form while folding her arms across her chest. "Because Mundus Magicus is a very dangerous place."

"I will be very careful Master," Chachamaru said. "Because if I'm corrupted, I won't be able to meet Shirou-sama and serve him."

"Tch, your loyalty to that sword-factory brat is far greater than your loyalty to me, Chachamaru," Evangeline said, looking a bit annoyed with the loyalty shown by Chachamaru to Shirou. "Even though it's obvious that you were designed and programmed by Satomi and Chao to be my servant!"

"I don't know why, but the program inside my computer brain was rewritten so that I became more loyal to Shirou-Sama than to Master, when Shirou-Sama defeated us both on a blackout night," Chachamaru replied. "And oddly enough it's become a scary bug because it can't be deleted or rewritten."

Twenty hours later, right after Negi had fully recovered, Shirou is ready to continue the journey and Chachamaru had finished recharging the energy she needed for her activities.

The three of them finally left the forest where they were staying the night before and started the search for the members of Ala Alba who were scattered throughout the magical world.

"In a magical world who are three times the size of Earth, it's almost impossible to find our friends existence in such a short time," Shirou said as he looked at the map of Mundus Magicus that Chachamaru had given to him with a frown on his face. "We really have to think of some other way so we can find all of them faster."

"It's weird to see a map that completely different from the map of our world," Negi said whose eyes sparkled after he looked at the map of Mundus Magicus. "Mundus Magicus really is a vast and huge world! If we're not on a rescue mission, I want to have a sightseeing this vast and beautiful world!"

"Taking into account the positions of the stars and the sun, the three of us are currently in the tropical forest of Celberas in the southernmost part of the Eryjum continent," Chachamaru said. "A region that has many ancient ruins with few inhabitants, the distance between this tropical forest and Megalomesembria is ten thousand kilometers and if we want to return to that city at the current speed we are walking, it will take more than 7 months."

"Yeah, but fortunately there are two members from Ala Alba who are not too far from where we are right now," Shirou said with a smile, because he felt a sense of hope. "After we can find our two friends who were also thrown into this forest, we will immediately go to the nearest town to meet the other Ala Alba members who are in that town."

"Shirou-Nii wouldn't it be faster if we teleported using your shadow instead of wasting time walking on foot which caused us to take a long time to find our friend who was also thrown into this forest?" Asked Negi who was confused as to why his older brother didn't use shadow teleportation which was much more practical and faster.

"Right now I can't use it, because if I use my shadow teleportation it will be a bit dangereous," Shirou explained to Negi with a disappointed look on his face. "Teleporting using shadows for ten thousand kilometers makes my shadow a bit unstable, so if I try now to teleport using shadows. I can't imagine what will happen."

Shirou's words gave Negi goosebumps, teleporting using an unstable shadow was really dangerous. Begi understood that because he had seen his rival Kotaro who could move around using his shadow just like Shirou had a slight accident right after he teleported while his shadow was unstable. And he was sure that teleporting using Shirou's currently unstable shadow would have dire side effects.
