Chapter 81
When I returned to Beruza, I immediately sent two werewolves to Rune Heights.
“Transform and return to Rune Heights as quickly as possible. Give this letter to Aria. If the Demon King is also there, don’t forget to report it there too.”
“Roger that!”
“Let me take care of that!”
If something went wrong in this area, it would be beyond my control. A helper is needed just for the investigation.
As a liaison, Parker made daily round trips to the reefs with the mermaids.
“Are you casually trying to keep me away?”
“No, I’m not. Come on, reassure them.”
“Okay, but … after telling the special joke I just came up with.”
“Just go fast, it’s okay”
This also serves as a surveillance, as the chances of the mermaids doing something behind the scenes isn’t zero.
Just in case.
As a lieutenant of the Demon King, it’s important not to trust others so lightly …
Of course, an eye would need to be put on the humans as well. This was just in case.
The person in charge there was the Monza Corps.
“Keep an eye on them for anything strange.”
“Oh, captain. If I find something strange, can I kill him?”
“No”
“Please… “
You can’t do something that isn’t good even if you’re cute. I mean, where did you learn how to do that?
While I was suspicious of Monza, Rashi whispered from the side.
“No, look at Mr. Monza. He gives me an ‘I want to be useful for you’ aura.”
“Ah, I see.”
I see.
“Rashi. It’s nice to get along with the werewolves, but can you not inject in between?”
“I’m sorry, but I just wanted to help Mr. Vaito …”
Rashi said it cutely, looking a little lonely.
That’s the way you’ve advised Monza right now.
Do you think it will work out?
“No, you should train on swimming as a punishment.”
“Eh !?”
I have a little idea. Perhaps this may be useful.
Rashi decided to change into a bathing suit as I forced her to practice swimming at the harbor.
“Wait, Vaito! I was born in the north, so I can’t swim!”
“That’s why I want you to be able to swim. You see, do you want to help me?”
“No!!”
I just lightly patted her back, but Rashi screamed and jumped into the sea from the pier.
I’ve never seen such comedy/entertainment in my previous life …
Of course I don’t want her to drown, so she has rescuers.
I shouted to the Gurney brothers who were fluttering at sea.
“Hey you guys, stop playing and take care of Rashi properly!”
Then Gurney brothers screamed back while scratching themselves, “We just swam in the river, we’re not that good at it!”
“I used to teach you how to breaststroke. You can use that.”
I used to teach werewolves of my generation to crawl and breaststroke when I was a kid. So everyone can swim to the extent that they don’t drown.
Even back then, the Gurney brothers have not been very good at swimming, and I feel that they have found an unexpected weakness.
Even if you’re not good at it, if you become a werewolf, your physical strength will rise, so if you swim in a cove with calm waves, you won’t have any trouble.
For the time being, I should keep an eye on it here. In case of an emergency, I’ll rescue them with an underwater breathing spell.
I decided to sit on the pier and spread the spellbook while reaffirming what I might need in the future.
The magic of this world is difficult to use just by remembering spells and actions.
Formal techniques are quite time-consuming and require concentration to use the technique. It can’t be used immediately except for a very simple technique.
Therefore, I usually keep the technique to be used in an emergency in the corner of my consciousness. Complete the chanting and movements in advance, and then just activate them.
It’s a bit like registering the magic that you often use in MMOs as shortcuts.
It can be said that the strength of the magician in battle is determined by the number of shortcut slots he has. No matter how advanced you are, it’s meaningless if you can’t use it right away.
By the way, I can prepare about 5 or 6 techniques. That’s a very average number for a professional magician.
Rashi can use advanced illusions, but the number of ready ones will be about the same. I’m not a very dexterous person.
Senior Parker and Melene have a long experience as magicians and should be able to do a little more.
As for Master, I have no idea how many preparations she can make. I think it’s literally orders of magnitude different.
That’s why I was endlessly thinking about what to remove instead, putting in conscious shortcuts the techniques that might be needed at sea.
“Strengthening the muscle, strengthening reflex speed, and strengthening resilience cannot be excluded …”
“Vaito-san! Hey, at least, can I swim where I can reach my feet! I should practice step by step …!”
Rashi was swimming like crazy while the Gurney brothers were watching over.
“Don’t worry, it’s not that deep! Strengthening your defenses … Hmm, but should I put in water walking? Oh, wait, I should put in some healing magic.”
There are some techniques that my teacher recently taught me. I also want to try them.
As I was thinking about it, Rashi suddenly started swimming. It seems that she got the hang of it.
“Ah!? How should I do this !? Is this how it’s supposed to be done Mr. Vaito!”
“Ah, do your best! Is it possible to remove the technique that does not need to be used immediately?”
I will narrow down the necessary techniques while cheering appropriately. I’m a Buffer, so I have to consider sustainability when choosing a technique.
If the effect lasts for half a day, you can use it in advance, and if it expires in a few seconds, it is troublesome to use it again.
It’s quite difficult …
At last, Rashi seemed to master breaststroke and started swimming happily.
“I did it! I did it, Mr. Vaito! I can now swim!”
“Oh, it was faster than I expected. Great, Rashi. Thank you for your hard work.”
“Ehehe”
I gave the following instructions to her as she was smiling shyly, “Then next. Go through the bottom of the boats everywhere.”
“eh?”
“Observe the surface of the water and the bottom of the ship while swimming. As you get used to it, gradually switch to a larger ship.”
“Eh? Eh?”
Don’t hold it against me, because I’ve thought this through.
Good luck, ex-saint.
