When the mock battle with Elinora sister is over, the next opponent is Luna-san.

　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with it, but it's not that hard to do with magic.

　However, Mother Erna told me to add or subtract to the fight, so that's the difficult part.

　The infinite runnin' machine and sand movement to keep the distance between us has been banned.

　The reason was that they said it was too exorbitant. It's true that those tactics were designed for me to strike from a distance one way or the other, versus Elinora's sister. I thought it was a little too much to use against anyone other than Elinora's sister, who is an unreasonable lump.

　However, if it was on a scale of just a little evasion or obstructing movement, I'm told it's okay to use it, so I just need to add or subtract.

''Then begin!''

　As I stare at Luna-san, who is vaguely away from me, I hear Mother Erna call out to start.

　Then, Luna-san chants to send the earthen bullets flying as soon as possible.

　When it was Elinora-sister, I was curious if she would really use her magic, so I decided to wait and see, but there's no need to wait for her if there's nothing else to worry about.

　I make earthen bullets and eject them earlier than Luna-san.

　By the way, it doesn't compress magic power, and even if it hits, it's safe enough to pop the sand.



　Luna-san stops chanting and moves due to my flying earthen bullets.

　My earthen bullets, which I didn't fly very fast, ducked and bounced off the ground in a daze.

'I seek, O earth, rise up...'

　And as Luna-san chants again, I fly a dirt bullet to block it.

　Then Luna-san stopped chanting again and took an evasive action.

　Luna-san was approaching the battle with a serious expression, but when she came here, her expression became miffed.

''........Al-kun is mean.

Well, I'm a faster magician than you are.

　When it comes to magic, the one who shoots fast has an advantage inevitably.

　That's why speed is simply a difference in power that's easy to understand.

''........It's not fair to chant without chanting. Chant as I do.

Can't you just chant while you duck and duck?

...but I'm not sure I'm up to the task.

　It's quite difficult to use magic while moving. It's a good idea to control the magic power inside while moving the limbs, while also imagining how to use the magic.

　It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

　But that's why we should practice now.

　You can't just stop and shoot, you have to duck.

I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do.

...eh...

　I continued to shoot bullets at Luna until she became exhausted.



　When the mock battle is over, Luna's energy is gone to the point where she can no longer duck the bullets.

''Well Al, you're like Elinora in this kind of recklessness.

　I'm sorry to say that you're like that unreasonable sister.



　◆



　After the mock battle with Luna-san, after a short break, we decided to play with Silvio-san this time.

　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you're in the marketplace.

''Al, I don't have the physical ability like my sisters and Luna-san, so you'll have to cut back on that.

Yeah, I can see that they're crazy, as expected.

　I shouldn't consider the way sister Elinora and Luna-san carry themselves as common.

　I'm very aware of that, and I decided to use my magic with even more care for Brother Silvio.

''Then begin,''

　When Mother Erna calls out to start, Brother Silvio starts chanting as soon as he can.

'I seek, gathered from the atmosphere...........Whoa!

　Brother Silvio is going to activate his attack magic, so I fly an earth bullet first to interrupt him. Brother Silvio interrupts his chanting and seems to have lost concentration, so he has to redo his magic.

　In fact, I would have just unleashed a one-sided spell from a distance just like Luna's time, but that wouldn't be too much practice for Brother Silvio, so I decided to wait for Brother Silvio to chant.

　Yes, let's just say that for some reason or another I was able to buy some time to chant.

"'I seek, gathered from the atmosphere, a sharp blade of wind'

　Hmm?　Wait a minute. That's a blade of the wind, isn't it?　It's a pretty dangerous spell to use in a man-to-man battle, right?　Earlier, Mother Erna had said that if she had to deal with me, it would be her or me, but she was relentless in making me really use it.

　I unconsciously deployed two unmagical shields as I broke out in a cold sweat.

　Although I understand that with my own magical power, one shield would be enough to prevent me from doing so, I took care of the wind blade a lot when I was building my own home. I fully understand how sharp they are. That's why I was worried about not having at least two pieces.

　Since there's plenty of magic power anyway, it's cheap to think that this much extra is enough to keep your peace of mind.

　As I was saying this to my mind, a blade of wind comes flying at Silvio from his brother.

　While I call out in my mind that it's okay, I prepare to throw myself out of the spot at any time to avoid it.

　However, my worries were in vain, and the shield I put up flicked the wind blade away unharmed.

　I'm relieved to hear that.

''As expected of my shield.

　Seeing your own defensive magic play back the opponent's attack magic with plenty of time to spare, I feel a little more confident.

　Or rather, I can even feel the ruggedness in the shield.

　Ah, I wonder if this is how the heroine feels when she is saved by the hero in a common story.

　It's the back that protects you in front of you. It's very big and I feel safe when I'm with her.

　S.H.I.E.L.D. is the best.

''I mean, Brother Silvio, isn't it terrible to unleash a blade of wind without mercy?

'Eh, no, but Al would use magic to prevent it, and my dad and mom said it was okay...'

　Hearing brother Silvio's words, I turned my gaze to Nord Dad at the edge of my vision.

　Then Father Nord nodded silently and turned his gaze to Mother Erna, who would be behind him.

Al, you're in the middle of a battle.

　That's all they said.

　I'm fine with it, sure, but I didn't expect him to really let me do it.

　Oh well. I have a reliable shield.

　As long as I put this up, I'm safe.

　It's boring to just protect it, so I keep the shield in place and let the dirt bombs fly.

''I seek the protection of the atmospheric whirlwind.

　Then Brother Silvio completed his chanting at a speed that was a far cry from the speed of the wind blade chanting earlier.

　The wind swirled around Brother Silvio and became a wind barrier that spread out in the shape of a dome.

　Perhaps it's because the earthen bullets I flew weren't even compressed, but when they hit the wind blade, they were shattered by the swirling wind.

'Whoa, there it is!　Silviobaria!

'It's not Silviobaria!　It's a windbreak!

　A barrier in wind magic is to intercept an opponent's magic by letting it flow into the wind, or by cutting it up with its blowing sharp wind.

　This time it's the latter. And that was when it also revolved around me. It's a magic that could chop you up if you make the slightest mistake in adjustment, but you used it with a cool face.

　Once again, I thought that Silvio brother had a talent for defense.



　After this, Brother Silvio sulked when he and Sister Elinora fiddled with it.
