Magic TrainingR𝒆ad lat𝒆st ch𝒂pters on n𝒐v𝒆lbi𝒏(.)c𝒐m
Saij Haruto walked to the mansions training grounds while thinking,Five days have passed since my birthday. In other words, it has been three days since I reincarnated as Halt.
In the House of Count Silveray, a child would begin their training in magic and swordsmanship when they reached five years of age.
Today is supposed to be my first swordsmanship training. However, nobody else is at the training grounds except for Tina and me. When it was my elder brothers turn, several famous Magicians and Knights were summoned to train them.
I have two elder brothers and one older sister. Our ages are quite far apart, eh? The eldest brother is already serving the kingdom as a Knight. My sister attends Magic Academy, and my second brother is enrolled at the Knight Training Center.
All of my siblings are elite, so it is rumored that the House of Silverays future is already secured. Being the third son, my father and mother let me live freely as I wish.
For that reason, I do not have any professors to teach me magic and swordsmanship.
Uh, there is but
Halt-sama, lets begin with the magic training first.
Tina stood before Haruto wearing an outfit suitable for moving around, different from her usual maid clothing. Whether it was magic or swordsmanship, Tina was responsible for his training.
Its not like I dont like this, but I cant reconcile the image of baby-faced Tina, who usually spoils me, with that of her fighting with sword and magic. Haruto was a little anxious.
Well, theres really no meaning in training since I wont be able to raise my status anyway.
I cant earn using knowledge-cheats, but since Im the third son of the House of Count Silveray, I shouldnt really have to worry about money.
Haruto started thinking about how nice it would be if he could just live his life without bothering his parents and siblings or training and studying properly. In the future, ideally he would work somewhere his parents arranged for him.
However, this is a different worlda fantasy world with weapons and magic.
I also possess magic, albeit a small amount considering Im only at Level 1. In other words, I can use magic! Haruto was really excited to use magic for the first time.
Please take care of me!
Yes, please take care of me too.
I have a question for you, Teacher Tina!
T, teacher? Ye, yes, what is it?
I teased Tina by calling her teacher, and she became a little bit shy. It did not give the impression that she disliked it however, so Ill be calling her teacher during training.
How much magic can Teacher use?
How much power could a teacher of magic possess?
Right, I havent shown my Status Board to Halt-sama. Here, please take a look, said Tina and she revealed her status board.
STATUS:
Name: Tina Harivell
Race: Half-Elf
Divine Protection: Descendant of the Heroes
Occupation: Magic Knight (Level 250)
Skill: Maid (Extreme)
Condition: Healthy
Huh? Le, level 250!?
It was not an exaggeration to say that she was the strongest maid. Thus, Tina stood before Haruto a little proudly.
The Status Board allowed one to control the data being shown to other people. Tina wanted to show Haruto just her level, so her Magic and Attack Power had not appeared on the panel.
She will probably show them to me if I ask, but its better not to since Ill only frighten myself with the difference in our abilities.
How was it? Am I not good enough as your teacher?
No, its not like that! Tina, you are strong.
Tinas level was several times higher than the level of the Knights and Magicians who had trained Harutos siblings.
Since that kind of person is willing to teach me, I dont have any complaints.
Fufufu, its because Im Haruto-samas exclusive maid and bodyguard.
I, is that so?
No, even as a bodyguard, she is too strong. Should Tina want to, its highly possible she can single-handedly defeat this kingdoms knight army. Thats how high her level is.
In the Kingdom of Grendale the Knight Commander was considered to be the strongest person, and it was rumored he was at Level 130. His level was the basic requirement to defeat A-rank Demons, such as Orc Kings and Ogres, unaccompanied. Undoubtedly, he was of high caliber.
However, when one surpassed Level 150, it was a different story. In the first place, ordinary people of this world could not exceed Level 150 and reach the third rank.
Tinas occupation, which was a Magic Knight, was a tertiary job that could only be given to those who reached the maximum level of magic and sword skills. In order to obtain tertiary jobs, humans needed to reach Level 150, which was the highest limit. Afterwards, they needed to pass Gods Trial.
First off, few people could reach Level 150. But there were some people among those possessing tertiary jobs that were Level 150 right from the start.
These were the Heroes who came from another world.
Reborn Heroes would obtain Level 150 tertiary jobs, such as Sages and Holy Knights, the moment they came into this world. Being a Hero was considered a tertiary occupation. Aside from that, those Heroes would level up faster.
With this, subjugating a Demon King was a given.
If one set aside the Heroes case, Tinas status was a problem. In this world, when one defeated Demons and monsters, the level of their profession would increase. When that happened, stats such as offensive power would also increase.
Since defeating stronger monsters was a prerequisite in raising levels, it was more difficult to level up for those who were already high-level. Given that situation, honestly, Tinas Level 250 was considered monstrous.
Tina, so you are a descendant of a Hero?
Yes, it is said that my great-grandfather was a Hero who came from another world. Because of the inherited Heros blood, leveling up is quite easy for me.
Thats amazing!
Thank you very much. Alright, it is about time we start your training.
Haruto was still wondering why Tina had been hired to be his exclusive maid, but since they were going to start the most awaited lessons on how to use magic, he decided to leave that matter aside for the time being.
Since Halt-samas profession is Wizard Apprentice, you have an aptitude for magic.
I guess Tina already looked at Halts Status Board before my rebirth. She doesnt know Im cursed, nor does she know my profession is a Sage.
My status was cursed the moment I reincarnated into Halts body, and on top of that, my rebirth was a Heros privilege. As such, my status is stuck at Level 1 despite my profession being set as [Sage].
Thats why Tina still thinks my profession is Wizard Apprentice. For some reason, I think its better not to explain the curse.
Id be troubled if she thought Im a reincarnated Hero. I cant get stronger because I cant level up. I cant fight. She might get disappointed later on if her incompetent student is having a hard time.
Does Halt-sama prefer an aptitude for swordsmanship? Tina asked since Haruto was preoccupied with his thoughts.
No, its okay. I want to use magic!
I understand. So first, let me demonstrate.
Tina then faced the furthermost corner of the training grounds where the targets used for magic were located. She stretched her arm, and magic power gathered on Tinas outstretched hand.
The gathered magical power moved up a little further away from her hand and hovered in midair. A flame materialized, gradually elongating and taking the shape of a spear.
Fire Lance!
Tina thrust her hand as she chanted, and the spear of fire flew at a great speed towards the target.
!?
The target burst into huge flames the moment the spear of fire collided with it. The heat was so intense, Haruto subconsciously covered his face with his arm.
The blaze died down immediately.
A large, gaping hole could be seen on the black, heavily charred magic target as it emerged into view. Originally, this target should have been able to withstand magical attacks that were of intermediate and higher levels. Now, it had a miserable appearance.
Neither the Knight, nor the Magician, who trained my siblings, could destroy the target to this extent.
[Fire Lance] was the lowest-ranked magic spell under the fire attribute.
Ah, I wanted to show Halt-sama something good, but I guess I went overboard.
Haruto found Tinas deceptive smile a little bit cute, but he was more interested in Tinas magical attack power, which could destroy an advanced-class target just by using the lowest-ranked magic spell.
