Chapter 189 - Episode Fifteen - Live Fogg (5)

“We’re lucky that he’s not as bad as I thought. He was a bit of a pain in the ass when he led us astray, though.”

I called out to them, and surprised, Kamla and Sophia stepped back, their shoulders shaking.

A slightly awkward silence falls.

“Really, thanks to brother, we’re saved me! As expected from the man Nelgliffe-sama hoped for!”

Augen tapped me on the shoulder, laughing vigorously.

Augen then looked towards to Kamla and Sophia.

“What’s up, you guys? The devil’s got you spooked, huh?”

“Ah, hahaha…… to tell you the truth, that’s right. Really, I didn’t think that such a thing would show up. I’m just relieved to see that they were apparently fake.”

“Abel-san is amazing! We were no match for it at all, though…… If Abel-san were here, maybe we could really get the Live Fogg!”

Kamla and Sophia, who were approached by Augen, immediately mend their expressions and come over to me with a subtle, twitchy smile.

…… Don’t these people seem…… to be turned off by me at all?

“Y, yes, that’s right! Can’t you show me that magic circle again? I, as a fellow sorcerer, am very interested in it!”

“What …… Really? So you are really curious?”

The magic that defeated Dantalion is what I call the Abel Ball.

The fireball produced is repeatedly amplified by magic power and compressed by wrapping it in a peculiar ward, increasing its destructive power to the very edge of its negative impact on space.

I have several hypotheses about what happens when the control is mismanaged, but honestly, I don’t know much about it either.

I’d like to experiment with it, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to take responsibility for the failure, so I haven’t tried it.

Seems simple enough, but you need to deploy multiple magic circles in sequence.

In the Marlen tribe village, I taught Shibi magic and he didn’t take it seriously.

No matter how diligently I explained, the only people who listened to me were Gizel and the Chief, but now that I think about it, Gizel seemed to be just listening because I was talking, and the Chief opening up other books in the middle of the conversation while studying them, and asking me the same questions over and over again, so the part I wanted to talk about didn’t go anywhere.

For some reason, everyone in the Alchemy Division, who at first accepted me as their leader with great joy, began to stare at me as if they were avenging their parents.

In retrospect, there aren’t many people who have voluntarily taken an interest in my self-made magic circle.

“B-but it’s no good. A home-made magic formula is like your own child to a magician……”

“No, no! Please tell me! I love explaining my theories to people!”

“I, I see. Well, I’ll take your word for it……”

“Then I’ll show the first magic circle first. This one is……”

Poking me, Mea poked me in the shoulder.

“What’s up?”

“Abel …… These people are still suspicious, and it’s better not to teach them that kind of thing, right?”

“Well, it’s better to step up and close the distance a little. I’ve been learning about Live Fogg, too, from Nelgliffe-san, and wouldn’t you hate it if we were to be wary and shy about putting out one way or the other?”

“…… If that’s what Abel wants to do, that’s fine.”

Mea stammered a bit sulkily.

Eventually, as we moved, I decided to explain to Sophia about the structure of the Abel ball and how to handle it.

We moved along with a break in the middle, and about two hours passed.

“So, to shorten it, the spirits that read the magic formula here amplify it based on the magic power received from the pseudo-magic field S so that the power of the magic power D´ and the magic power F´´ shown earlier are equal. At that time, this part of the double-eyed magic circle reacts to that change based on the theory I just explained.”

“…… Yes, I understand.”

Sophia gave a small nod with empty eyes.

“As a result of the series of events, by continuing to send a constant wave of magic power to the pseudo-magic field S, the strength of one part of the other side of the boundary can be further increased. This is what happens when this mechanism is greatly abbreviated by using the Merisu-type mirror surface theory. It’s a bit inappropriate to say, but it’s a form of tricking spirits. If they’re formally forming a magic circle, their heads would explode. The spirit would collapse, so the efficiency of magic power would drop dramatically. If you want to make a clone-shaped ward, that’s fine, but it’s too much work, and it’s not very practical. It may seem like a pain in the ass, but once you get the flow down, this is much easier. By repeating the pseudo-repeat in this way, you can save this aspect of ……”

“…… Yes, I understand.”

“That’s all you’ve said since before, but do you really understand?”

“…… Yes, I understand.”

“I hope you understand…… Well, you were talking about assisting in the development of multi-sided boundaries by applying the Merisu-type mirror surface theory.”

“…… Yes, I understand.”

“…………”

I had a hunch, but I knew that you weren’t listening……

Even though I looked at her with suspicion, Sophia didn’t react at all.

“Abel, Mea listened carefully! Unlike Sophia, Mea listened carefully! Let’s see… …… It’s like a matching mirror and then bam!”

Mea says with her hand flapping and a good deal of pride.

“…… Ummm, that’s how it is, but not really. Strangely enough, I feel like it’s a shame.”

When I suddenly turned my attention to Sophia, her feet seemed to be quite awake.

She was fine just a few moments ago, but suddenly her mental strength seemed to be leaking away from her.

“Sophia-san, are you okay? By any chance, something like just now…… a demon’s attack……”

I tried to look at it by sensing it, but I don’t feel any particular magic power that seems to be there.

Should I use an Ortem to look into it in earnest……?

“I don’t think you get to say that……”

Kamla, who was behind me, opens his mouth.

“H-hey, brother, it’s about time for you to refrain from talking to each other around there, since we’re close to where the Live Fogg was found. I know you can talk to each other as sorcerers, though.”

“I guess so. Sofia-san seems to be a bit tired of traveling right now, so …… let’s talk about the rest of it when we get back to Pargas Village. That way I can explain it to you calmly and spend some time on the parts that were simply left out.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Sofia says it’s better that way too.

She’s probably tired now, after all.

Maybe I could have lent her my mobility Ortem.

However…… Live Fogg, huh?

If the cause of the disturbance in this mountain range’s magic field was the four-headed demon Dantalion, Live Fogg might not even be able to be born anymore.

Nelgliffe called the Live Fogg as a gift from Levi-sama……
