The next morning I was training with Miss Heliet out of town. She was happy to show me some things I'd never seen, especially magic that most people never thought of.
During her time as her student, she kept pressing me to memorize various magic formulas from the simplest to the most difficult, and now this is the biggest test.
"Now my dear disciple, try to cast your magic circle."
"Well."
When I took out the magic circle from my palm, it shattered with just a snap of a finger. How could that be?
"After learning the magic circle formula you can apply it to your enemy's magic circle, each formula has their own weak point eg the formula for water magic."
A blue magic circle appeared in front of Miss Heliet. A magic circle is another form of mana that is synchronized into 7 different elements, some people activate it with a chant, but for both of us, we use Magic Script. Magic Script is a formula addition; entering the spirit element into it allowed us not to have to cast magic, but the spirit element created by my master was wrong, so it was destroyed as soon as possible.
"Did you understand?"
"Aah, placing a magic script in your enemy's magic circle can destroy it in an instant."
"That's right, and this is only one way you can use it. You can also carelessly scribble on other people's formulas," she said softly, then continued.
"The magic circle is the most important part of it all. When your enemy still needs to cast magic, we can destroy them immediately."
I started trying to do it even though it was hard to stick to the enemy, especially if she kept moving.
If using original scribbles, it takes a long time.
"You have to go even faster."
We do it by flying.
My teacher used a broomstick while I just stood on my stick.
An hour later, I lay down on the grass while catch my breath.
"Isn't it cheating if the teacher keeps moving?"
"That's the difficulty you have to go through. If your enemy doesn't move, I'm sure you can use it," she replied mischievously.
Before I got up, Miss Heliet pushed me back down, and she was right on top of me.
"This kind of position favors men, what do you think?"
I just stared at her blankly.
"Stop teasing me teacher, it's not time to open your shop now."
"Oh right."
We both got up, and my teacher put his arm around me as we walked back to town.
"By the way teacher, why do your potions always taste bitter?"
"Isn't medicine always bitter?"
"That's why your shop isn't very popular."
"Is that true?"
I took a potion from inside my hat and gave it to my teacher.
"This…"
"I bought one from the town next door, I just want the teacher to taste it too."
"You traitor."
"I'm not a traitor, I just want to make the teacher's shop more visited by people, by comparing products from other stores we can determ?ine how our quality is made."
"Is that so I'll give it a try."
I just watched her from the side.
"It tastes sweet."
"That's right, all the shops I've been to all taste like this."
"In 900 years a lot of things have changed."
I was more surprised because she had only just realized it.
"Well Aksa, what's their recipe?"
I pulled her cheek.
"'Uwah… it hurts, it hurts."
"It's best to think for yourself what to add and don't think about stealing recipes from other people."
"I know."
"For starters, how about the teacher just add some fruit juice."
"I'll give it a try, then I'm on my way here."
"Ah, see you later."
We parted ways at a crossroads while waving to each other. Even though I'm 900 years old, sometimes my teacher acts childish.
"…"
I have to take the next quest from the guild.
