Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

Of course, the length and power of the spell are also related to the magician's mental strength and the power of the spell, but that's a story for another time.

After thinking for a while, Kato Megumi closed her eyes and began to use her mental power to sense the magic power around her, while constructing a spell model. However, as her vision became dim, her own perception was enhanced, and gradually, Kato Megumi could clearly sense the magic particles surrounding her that were like air.

In the dark, Kato Hui mobilized her mental strength and gently chanted her own spell.

Scorching Flame

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 96 Chapter No talent or genius?

In the dim perception, a warm fire slowly rose...

Kato Hui was so excited that she opened her eyes quickly, and saw a cluster of flames the size of a fingernail...

……

……

"Hmm... Although it looks round and cute, and gives off a warm feeling..."

The little flame was like a warm light, with a touch of spirituality and innocence... but something seemed to be wrong...

What I want is not magic, but offensive magic! What's the matter with the size of a fingernail... Even if I don't have a magic wand, it shouldn't be like this...

"Maybe the spell is wrong... Even though it's a little bit childish, I still like this kind of spell... It's much better than the fireball spell."

Kato Megumi was quite confused. She changed the spell again, but the result was still no different. The flame that popped out from her fingertips was always the size of a fingernail.

This made her feel helpless. Why was this happening?

Could it be that my talent in fire magic is not outstanding?

With this idea in mind, Kato Megumi prepared to try other spells. After the first experience, she learned much faster than before. In less than half the speed, Kato Megumi learned water spells and wood spells.

Then, she went to the yard, dismissed the maid, and prepared to start the experiment.

This time, she took out the novice magic wand she had prepared earlier and planned to cast the spell seriously. In order to have a more intuitive understanding of her magic casting and make the spell more stable, the spell constructed by Kato Megumi this time was no longer a simplified spell.

"The frost will never be late, and the bone-chilling cold will chill the world—"

"Ice Summoning——"

As Kato Megumi expected, the water magic in the air quickly gathered, and the air became colder and colder. The water magic visible to the naked eye filled the spell model constructed by her mental power and gathered in front of her. Frost began to form on the surface of the surrounding grass and trees...

"It seems to have become——"

Kato Megumi looked delighted.

Judging from the range and situation, the spell seems to be very successful and frost will fall soon.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the magic power was gathering faster and faster. With the help of Kato Megumi's mental strength, it actually formed a self-absorbed tornado at such a fast speed. Kato Megumi could even feel her hair flying, and the shadow in front of her was getting bigger and bigger.

……

……

Something seems wrong... Kato Megumi's smile suddenly faded.

I saw the shadow in front of me getting bigger and bigger... bigger... bigger... and then it formed... a huge... ice ball?

???

There was no flying snow or ice. Countless water magic powers, under his control, formed a huge ice ball with a diameter of three meters.

Kato Megumi was stunned for a moment...and the mental power that controlled the spell suddenly stagnated.

puff-

The ground shook violently. Without the control of mental power, the huge solid ice ball suddenly fell from a height of ten meters, causing a noticeable tremor. The soft ground was suddenly smashed into a one-meter-deep hole...

Kato Megumi was silent...

Is it really that I have no talent?

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is there an earthquake?!"

The obvious tremor startled Eriri who was reading a comic book. Following the source of the tremor, Eriri quickly came to the lawn where Kato Megumi was.

Soon, she also saw the big ice ball standing out on the lawn.

"Wow! What a big ice ball... Hui, did you make this?"

Ying Lili jumped to the ice hockey, and as soon as she got close, she felt the coldness from the air piercing her bones.

"It feels so good... so cool."

Ying Lili squinted her eyes and pressed her face against the ice ball, rubbing it and enjoying it very much.

"I thought it would take you a long time to learn magic, but I didn't expect you to learn it so quickly. You're amazing, Hui. I didn't expect you to be a genius magician and to be able to conjure such a big ice ball... As my personal magician, you haven't done anything to discredit me, my contracted beast."

Kato Hui pursed her lips and said nothing. Did she really have talent? She doubted it...

Then, she was in a bad mood and didn't realize that she actually said what was in her heart...

"Of course! Can an ordinary magician create such a big ice ball? I heard that magicians can only create fist-sized ice chips at the beginning!"

Eriri put her hands on her hips proudly, as if the ice hockey in front of her was created by herself.

"This big ice ball must weigh several tons. When you see someone who doesn't have eyes, you can use the ice ball to hit him. How cool it is... Let's see who dares to look down on us."

Yes, Eriri was referring to that old man.

Having said that, she pressed herself against the ice ball with a look of enjoyment and licked it with her tongue. Hmm... so sweet... is the ice gathered by magic so sweet?

Ying Lili wanted to lick it again, but... she couldn't pull it out.

Her tongue was stuck, and Ying Lili pushed the ice ball with her claws, but no matter what she did, she couldn't separate her tongue from the ice...

"Hey! Hey, meow, Hui, my head is blocked, come and help me..."

Eriri stuck her head out and tried hard to pull it up, wanting to ask Kato Megumi for help, but she didn't expect that Kato Megumi was so lost in enlightenment because of her words just now that she couldn't hear her cry for help at all.

……

Yes! Being able to mobilize so much magic power from the beginning is already much stronger than ordinary magicians. Although there is a gap between reality and imagination, the core has not changed.

I wanted ice, so an ice ball came out. I wanted the spell to have strong attack power, so the ice ball came out solid, strong and huge in size. Its lethality was not weakened at all, but strengthened instead.

So it’s not that I don’t have talent, but that I am very talented?

With his index finger on his chin, Kato Megumi thought for a few moments, then waved his staff and chanted a spell.

"Scorching Flame"

As the spell sounded, the surrounding fire particles began to surge, and gradually, a flame the size of a fingernail appeared in front of him.

Kato Megumi was not surprised by this. She gently waved her staff, and a flame the size of a fingernail shot towards the huge ice ball like an arrow.

Nothing happened. The flame passed through the ice ball and shot towards the courtyard wall with inertia, then slowly dissipated along the way.

Kato Megumi observed carefully and found that the three-meter-diameter ice ball was pierced by the flames, leaving a two-finger-wide channel... It was obviously caused by the flames.

"So my guess is correct. It's not that his talent is too poor, but that his talent is too strong and cannot be controlled. Is it extremely biased..."

The guess was confirmed and Kato Megumi smiled happily.

At this moment, Kato Megumi felt a gaze staring at her. When she followed the gaze, she found that Eriri was looking at her with resentment.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 97 Chapter There is no possibility between us

"puff"

Looking at Eriri, as a cat, she looked a bit like a greedy puppy in summer, sticking out its tongue to lick the ice but getting its tongue frozen by the ice. Kato Megumi burst out laughing.

"Stupid, stupid, come and find me quickly, I'm going to make you laugh!"

Because her tongue was stuck to the ice, Eriri's words were unclear. Her pair of bright cat eyes were wide open, looking at Kato Megumi in disbelief as she laughed. It seemed that she didn't expect that she was such a person and was still laughing at her own joke.

"Ah! I didn't expect you to be such a person. I'm angry."

For a moment, Ying Lili's movements became more intense, but because her tongue was stuck, she was restrained and looked very funny.

"Ah... I didn't mean it, Eriri... Don't worry, I'll help you right away..."

Kato Megumi put away her smile and hurried over to Eriri's side. She used magic to create a cluster of flames and began to melt the ice on the edge of her tongue.

Although the ice is the product of her own magic, Kato Megumi does not have the ability to restore it to its original state at this stage, so she can only use this method to help Eriri escape.

Seeing Kato Megumi coming to help her, Eriri stopped struggling and waited calmly for the flame to save her tongue. After all, she had seen the power of the flame, and it would be bad to get burned by it.

Without the control of mental power, the ice cube was just an ordinary ice cube. Soon the flame melted the ice cube beside the tongue, and Yingli's tongue was finally freed due to thermal expansion and contraction.

But even so, she was still very unhappy. Looking at Kato Megumi who looked apologetic, Eriri turned her head away, as if she didn't want to pay any attention to her.

Seeing Eriri's look as if she was saying, "I'm angry and you need to coax me," Kato Megumi smoothed her hair and soothed her, speaking softly as if she was coaxing a child.

"Well... don't be angry! I really didn't mean to make fun of you just now. I was thinking about something before, so I didn't hear your call. Please forgive me... my lovely Eriri..."

"No, shameless, who, who is yours! I am not yours! But you were right to praise me for being cute, so I will forgive you generously..."

Ying Lili said awkwardly, the cat's whiskers stood up and its tail swayed restlessly behind it.

“Eh? Isn’t Eriri my contracted beast? Come to think of it, Eriri, it seems like the whole cat of yours is ‘mine’…”

Looking at Eriri's gesture, Kato Megumi pretended to be surprised and emphasized the word "my". This mischievous gesture made Eriri instantly furious.

"You, you shameless guy, I won't pay any attention to you. I will never admit this. You are obviously mine! No, no, bah, you are not mine. Anyway, I am not... Don't talk nonsense..."

Eriri, as always, refused to be a tsundere and firmly denied what Kato Megumi said. However, she soon realized that what Kato Megumi said seemed to be true. When she thought of this, Eriri became even more restless.

As a pornographic comic writer, Eriri seemed to have made some strange associations based on Kato Megumi's words. Her eyes looked restlessly at "those places" of Kato Megumi, and her claws and tail became restless, and she quickly covered her cheeks.

"I won't admit it anyway, just give up, you won't get me!"

"There's no future between the two of us! I don't like 'Hills'! We are class enemies!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Eriri left in a panic, gradually disappearing from Kato Megumi's sight, leaving only a small figure walking further and further away.

Kato Megumi was left alone and shook her head helplessly as she watched her leave.

"Um... "Hills"?"

Kato Megumi looked down at the whiteness of her chest and blinked. Then, she seemed to suddenly become interested in her own innate tenderness and began to pinch it curiously with her fingers. The touch she got through the thin and low-key feeling was warm and soft, and the touch on the opposite side of her body also brought a little numbness. Hmm...

Kato Megumi's cheeks turned slightly red...

"It's the right size, how can it be bad... I think it's pretty good..."

Kato Megumi muttered softly.

……

……

Magic requires precise control and understanding. You must be familiar with the spells you use and be able to use them with ease.

As a new magician, Kato Megumi needs to understand the limits of her spellcasting, the power of her spells, and the range of her control. She has to experiment with these step by step.

Since she knew that she was not stupid, not without talent, and was even a genius, Kato Megumi felt that she should not waste her abilities and indulge in the power brought by her talent; she should learn how to control magic more meticulously, and experiment and learn step by step so that she could better master the power she possessed.

This way I won't let myself down by leaving my hometown to come here, and I won't disappoint the witch lady who invested in me.

Of course, things have to be done step by step, and Fujie doesn't expect to be able to learn to control it all at once. This powerful spell was a force beyond her reality in the past.

"Snow and wind spirits, please listen to my call"

"Frost Freeze——"

"The gift of the earth, the natural plants, life admires it, and the clouds and rain bless it."

"The movement of life——"

……

……

On the deserted lawn in the courtyard, Kato Megumi experiments with her magic again and again, judging the various situations of her existence based on the formation and power of the magic.

In this world, all chanted spells have a fixed number of times, not limited to magicians, sword masters, sages and many other professions. They are all restricted by their own mental power and the rules of the world. The spells they can cast have a certain number of times, and the higher the level, the more times they can cast. However, Kato Megumi is different. Coming from another world, she is not restricted by the number of times she can use magic. As long as her mental power is not over-consumed, she can cast countless magic.

If other people knew that Kato Megumi had the ability to break the rules, they would probably be surprised and find it incredible.

After all, there is a limit to the number of times everyone can cast spells. Even if one has strong mental power, he can only cast a few more spells than others. Why can you have no limit on the number of times you can cast spells until your mental power is exhausted?

However, Kato Megumi did not know this. It would be better to say that this matter has become common sense, so it is not written in books. Therefore, she does not know how different this matter is from other people.
