Magi’s Grandson

Getting locked-on

The self-introduction ended when Julius finished his, and after listening to the schedule for tomorrow and onwards, we were done for the day.

Tomorrow morning, we will get a tour inside the academy. After eating lunch, we will immediately have practical training at the indoor practice field.

There was no such thing as Training Clothes. We were told it was because our uniform already has high-level defense due to the Enchantment Magic. Even if the uniform were to be damaged beyond repair, we will be provided with another one for free by the academy. By the way, the cafeteria in the academy and tuition fees are also free. This is also the same for the other three major Advanced Academies. Because it is beneficial to the Kingdom for the purpose of raising human resources, an appropriate yearly budget has been allocated. However, there is no obligation to serve the Kingdom after graduation.

Amazing, huh, this kingdom.

And, I had already finished modifying my uniform.

Fufufu, it turned out to be quite close to what I had imagined.

Originally, the uniform was already enchanted with Magic Protection, Impact Mitigation, and Anti-Fouling using the language of this world. Items enchanted with three effects are categorized as high-cla.s.s among general magic tools. Usually, a magic tool only has one or two effects.

For those enchantments effects, Magic Protection has an effect where it will soften the impact caused by magic.

Impact Mitigation will soften physical shock.

And, Anti-Fouling will remove any stain sticking on the uniform. Since well be wearing them as is during practical training.

When I confirmed those effects, I thought Anti-Fouling was good as it was, while for Magic Protection and Impact Mitigation, I thought it cannot be just that. For the effects just soften

Thus, I rewrote over the enchantment effects.

First, I stripped off the enchanted magic effects for the time being. What I meant by this is, the recorded characters, I carefully handled them one character at a time, used a specialized work wand wrapped in mana, and stripped off the characters one by one. I also made this specialized work wand myself. It wasnt as though this process cannot be done with my fingers, but since it requires a delicate work and concentration, I didnt do it that way. Doing that while trying to match the characters is absolutely impossible. Or rather, up until now, it seems no one has ever done stripping off enchantment effects before.

If I were to say why this kind of thing is possible, its because I didnt like an effect I previously enchanted, and I wondered if it was possible to undo it. So, I had experimented with various things.

When I imagined mana wrapping around the magic tool and characters floating up, first, the inscribed characters came floating up.

When I saw this, I thought that perhaps maybe So I made a wand enchanted with Magic Effect Nullification, and when I tried to trace one of the floating characters, the character disappeared. And when I tried to enchant the item one more time, I was able to enchant it again.

The face grandma made when I showed this to her was amusing.

The number of characters that could be granted on the blazer, s.h.i.+rt and slack was a total of 20 characters.

What is this made out of? Its made from a considerably special fabric. Is the thread different? Since it was said that one could harvest various special materials from demonized animals, so perhaps maybe its the thread from a demonized spider Uwa~ I should stop thinking about it.

Previously, when I made the Protection Suit, because it was made with a normal clothes and had 8 characters, I could only enchant three effects; Stab-Proof, Anti-Magic, Anti-Shock. Even so, it was good enough for practical use. However, maybe because the effects were abbreviated when being inscribed, the effects were not able to fully manifest perfectly.

[T/N: Stab-Proof (2), Anti-Magic (3), Anti-Shock (3) = 8 characters]

So the enchantments, this time, are: Absolute Magic Defense, to replace Anti-Magic.

Anti-Shock and Stab-Proof is replaced by Complete Physical Impact Absorption.

Together with this, the originally enchanted Anti-Fouling.

Plus the newly added Auto-Heal.

With this, the total is 20 characters.

[T/N: Absolute Magic Defense (6), Complete Physical Impact Absorption (8), Anti-Fouling (2), Auto-Heal (4) = 20 characters]

Enchanting Absolute Magic Defense was particularly hard.

My image couldnt catch up with the inscribed characters.

Because the words Absolute Magic Defense means to defend against all magic, the effect should be able to defend against all. But for Fire and Water, the defense methods are different. I couldnt imagine how to defend all, and so I failed to inscribe the words many times.

I was quite troubled on what to do.

When grandma looked at me being troubled, she was watched me with a very worried look.

And then, from a certain change of idea, I finally succeeded in inscribing them.

That image was Magic Dispersion.

I enchanted the image where it extends a mana barrier to wrap around the uniform, and when an invoked magic touches that barrier, that magics mana will be dispersed.

Up until that point, I was imagining a Hard Wall, but it didnt go that well. And so, instead of Stopping, I thought of what will happen if the mana, which is the building block of magic itself, is dispersed. So when I tried experimenting on that theory, it was properly invoked.

The moment I succeeded, I shouted with a loud voice.

And grandma came flying over.

Complete Physical Impact Absorption also has the same principle. Rather than imagining Hardness, when I imagined the Dissipation of Kinetic Energy, the enchantment was inscribed successfully. The moment a moving object hits this uniform, its movement will be stopped as if completely ignoring the laws of physics; that kind of movement honestly gave off an unpleasant feeling. But as an armor, it is the best, though.

Anti-Fouling has the image where it memorizes the original condition of the clothes, and removes all other foreign objects sticking on the clothes.

For Auto-Heal, the image is where it recognizes wounds and fractures, and activates when it detects those injuries. It then gathers cells from other parts of the body and temporarily changes them into stem cells. Those stem cells then restore the parts in need of mending and returns them back to their original condition.

That is why, when Auto-Heal activates, the body becomes slightly thinner.

By the way, the effect would only manifest for causes that can be treated surgically.

Although it looks like the defensive equipment is invincible at a glance, but there are two major flaws.

First, only the areas covered by the uniform are protected. The face, hands, and feet are defenseless.

Second, the enchantments wont activate from the start if one doesnt supply it with mana.

The first flaw can be compensated up to a certain extent by automatic healing enchanted on the uniform.

For the second flaw, in the first place, the enchantments will activate when one were to use magic.

I think it wont be a problem since there arent a lot of situations where one receives attacks. Most of it will only be during battles.

Since the enchantments require a reasonable amount of mana to activate, theres no need to keep activating them all the time. It is also important to be cautious because one can receive damage from surprise attacks.

And so, all those enchantment magic has been implemented in this uniform.

With a sour face, grandma warned me to absolutely never reveal this to anyone.

The time when everyone was leaving the cla.s.sroom, since homeroom has ended and we were dismissed for today.

s.h.i.+n, do you have a minute?

I was stopped by Maria.

Hmm? What is it?

Theres something I want to discuss with you, is that okay?

Yeah, its okay but

Is it that again? They want me to let them meet grandpa and grandma?

I want to discuss something regarding Sicily.

All right, Ill hear it.

Did something troublesome happen?

Yes, its a really troublesome thing.

Maria had a really troubled expression.

Whereas Sicily had a really apologetic expression on her face.

Since both of them had such expressions, does this mean its really troublesome?

Actually theres a guy whos stalking Sicily.

Wha

Whaaaat~! Where and which guy is it!?

It was after meeting s.h.i.+n for the first time, I think. He was making advances towards Sicily ever since, and even though Sicily refused him many times, he still came back to the point of using his familys influence as a threat.

Hes the worst, that guy. When things dont go the way he wanted, he uses the family influences, so any time now

Since Sicily didnt do like he wanted, it seems he got really mad So he might do something reckless sooner or later.

As I thought, huh.

Also that stalker guy I mentioned is here in this academy.

What did you say!?

If hes here in the academy, this isnt the time to be relaxed since anything can happen at any time!

Sicily had a really painful and apologetic expression on her face.

Sorry s.h.i.+n-kun telling you something like this

What are you talking about? Rather, Im really glad that you let me know!

Thats why, Im so sorry

What does that mean? Putting that aside, this situation requires immediate attention.

While I was thinking about what to do, a voice called out to us.

Oi! Sicily, you b.i.t.c.h! Whats the meaning of this? Youre already my fiance, and yet youre talking to another man!

What did he say?! Who the h.e.l.l is he!

Sicilys face distorted into a painful expression when she heard that voice. Who was it that made Sicily have this kind of expression! When I looked at the person who made that voice

Its him again. Its Cart.

Its him. Hes been stalking Sicily all the time, and has been saying shes his fiance to people around him as he pleases.

Maria said to me.

Sicily who looked at the guy, panicked and hid behind my back. Maybe because he didnt like what he saw, he walked towards us with his face red from anger.

Sicily! You b.i.t.c.h, come over here!

Cart stretched out his hand and tried to grab Sicilys arm.

But theres no way I would let such a thing happen.

I grabbed the arm reaching out for Sicily, and twisted it behind his back. Somehow, it feels like deja vu.

GUWA~! Le~, let go, you insolent person!

Ha~ Youre still talking like that?

Because he was being loud, I released him. When I did, he still yelled while glaring at me. Hes still annoying even after being released.

That Sicily is my fiance! The likes of you are not allowed to talk to her!

You said those kinds of things, but is it true?

Well that

Aa, since Carts voice was so loud, she became timid, huh.

Sicily, its okay. No matter what happens, Ill protect you. Thats why you just try to say whatever is on your mind.

s.h.i.+n-kun

I said that in order to rea.s.sure Sicily. Then, Sicily had a look that seemed to be determined about something, turned towards Cart and spoke.

I I decline your proposal of marriage! Also, its troublesome when you selfishly label me as your fiance!

Sicilys voice echoed throughout the hallway, which turned quiet in order to watch the developing events. Alright! Well said, Sicily.

Yo-you b.i.t.c.h! Are you telling me youre defying ME!

Im de-defying you! I have no intention of doing anything you told me to!

Shes probably scared; her legs are trembling. Even so, she said the things she wanted to say. Youre great, Sicily.

Yo-you b.i.t.c.h A woman dares to defy me? All you women should only please the man beside her. Furthermore, even though I let you be by my side, dont screw with me!

Which one of us is s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g around?

Those earlier words are not allowed. Women are not tools of men. I was angry from the bottom of my heart at this guy who said those words nonchalantly.

Y-you b.a.s.t.a.r.d Youre stubbornly defying me, ahh!

Ah~ Ill defy you all I want. Do~nt get conceited thinking you can always have everything your way.

Ugh, y-, y-y-y-y-y you b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

Oh, his red face got redder. Did he burst his blood vessels?

Thats enough, to be full of yourself Fine, Ill show you what happens to anyone who dares to defy me.

Whats that? A threat? Fine, come attack me anytime. Since Ill beat you down thoroughly.

Is it okay for you to say something like that? Sicily. If I remember correctly, your father is an administrator at the Finance Bureau, right?

Thats right But No way!

Thats right. My father is the Vice Minister of the Finance Bureau. If I were to say a word to Father well, I wonder what will happen?

Cart said that with a disgusting smile on his face.

Thi-this guy! Hes really the worst!

Thats enough.

Prin-Prince Augusto

Just when Im about to lose my temper, Gus came and interfered.

Cart von Ritzburg, do you not remember what I told you during the entrance examination?

Th-that is

Furthermore, to ask your own father to put pressure on your opponents father, its an outrageous act unbecoming of a n.o.ble of this Kingdom.

Cart was admonished by Gus; he bowed his head and couldnt say anything at all.

I will let the Director of the Finance Bureau know about this through my Father. So there would be no strange actions taken, just in case.

Ah! Th-that is!

This is a decided matter. Objections are not allowed. If you understand, you can go already.

Yes I understand

After he glared at me with eyes that were full of intense hatred even more than during the entrance ceremony, he left.

Thanks, Gus, you saved me. Just a little more and I would have lost my temper.

Sorry, Your Highness. Thank you very much.

What, although I was watching what you were going to do, but since it seemed the conversation was going in a strange direction, I decided to take the liberty of intervening. But I also felt like I wanted to see what would have happened if you were to snap.

You! Give back my thanks!

So you were watching this whole time! If that was the case, you should have intervened immediately!

Dont get so angry. Because you were here, I was sure there would be no danger to Mes.h.i.+na and Claude.

Well, of course, there would be no danger but theres also a chance things could go wrong, you know.

Hehe, is that so? Dont worry. No matter what happens, Ill protect you. Didnt you say that? You looked really cool, right Claude?

Eh! Umm, that is he looked really cool

Is what she said, isnt that great? s.h.i.+n.

This guy really!

Sicily became red-faced and fidgeted bashfully. She was looking at me with an upward glance Ah, really! Shes so cute, G.o.ddammit!

Hey, do you think its all right now with this?

Maria came and asked anxiously. Well, under those circ.u.mstances, anyone couldnt feel relief at all.

Although I dont know why hes so convinced that he is special compared to others, and also, he doesnt seem to the type of guy who would simply accept how things didnt end up the way he wanted. I should probably still pay attention to him.

Well, I still think its necessary to take caution until I see him stopping those glances. Dont relax your guard just yet.

As I thought thats how it is

Sicily has fallen silent. That wont do, I have to cheer her up. I could have her meet grandma for the first time, ah! Thats it!

Although this is sudden, it came to me. After this, does everyone want to come over my house?

EHhhh?! s.h.i.+ns house?!

Thats what I said

Lets go! Ill let Father and Mother know right away! So lets do that!

I-I will go too! Ill also let my parents know, thank you very much!

The two of them bolted and answered immediately.

Did they really want to meet grandpa and grandma this much?

Hmm, I guess Ill go as well. Father is probably making his way to s.h.i.+ns house now, anyway.

Hes probably there. No doubt.

I will also be going with His Highness as his escort.

I [Sessha] will also be going [de-gozaru].

Ah, so they were there, Thor and Julius. Well, I guess its only natural since theyre Gus escort. Although today was the first time Ive seen it.

Then, I will go and speak to my parents!

Please wait for me!

Sicily became energetic now. They dashed away immediately.

So what now? Did you manage to come up with something??

Ah, this uniform has been imparted with enchantment magic.

It is as you said.
