Chapter 4: Prologue 4

A woman that would become the class’s Madonna if she just put on the academy’s uniform is now my new mother, she is the academy’s headmaster and also an influential person within the magic society.

“Sorry, I really want to spend more time with you but I have work to do after this.........”

She said so and left the house, leaving me behind.

To Marino-san defence, I know that she’s extremely busy person.

But when you just drop the bomb that you will become my mother that day and said that we wouldn’t be able to meet for a while due to her work, what would you think about that?

I myself don’t really have a problem with that, but since I have been reincarnate into this body I feel like my luck has been replaced with his misfortune instead.

However, after Takioto Kousuke faced various kinds of misfortune, he suddenly got a new parent and a new home. With a bottomless anxieties swirling inside him, his new mother who should be by his side ended up going to work.

It is to the point that I have to wonder why didn’t Takioto Kousuke in the game become a shut-in. He would always say something with a high tension like “Totally↑↑” or “Dude waaaaait a Minute.” or “ain’t that girl totally cute? let’s hit on her. I will play a hoodlum then you go in and help her. okay?”

Honestly, I can’t believe that he became that kind of character.

“This guy is too pitiful.......”

Well, let’s set aside the thing about Takioto Kousuke and focus on what I have to do.

“Even so.............isn’t this too much?”

There’s a thick enveloped placed in front of me, peeking out are a bunch of banknotes. It seem like Marino-san said that it’s “one week living expenses”. There’s one thing I can say for certain.

“Marino-san has no sense of money huh.”

I pull out a bundle of banknotes from the envelope. The total amount is a million Japanese Yen. I wouldn’t be able to spend it all even if I use it to order a special sushi delivery every day.

“I don’t mind even if you use it all alright!!”

She said that with a smile but how do I suppose to use this. Should I buy a brand name bag or a luxury watch?

Other things that seem expensive.......speaking of this world it should be something like magic-tool, right?

“...........Wait a minute?”

In the first place I am supposed to be Takioto Kousuke, right?

“I should be able to use magic....right?”

No, there’s no way he can’t. This guy enrolled in that magic academy in the first place. How would he get in if he can’t use magic.

“Magic huh?”

That would be a miracle-like phenomenon that can’t be explained by science. If I can use it then I would definitely like to try it.

Rather, If I can’t use it then won’t I have to leave the academy?

Hm, I have no choice but to try it out then?

“Back in the game I just simply click on the button though.”

There’s no screen so I can’t try clicking it. I can’t even see my status in the first place. I want to at least be able to observe my HP and MP. Well, that would be impossible, right.

Wait.

If this guy is a magician that was able to enroll into the academy, doesn’t that mean there would be a textbook about magic lying around here somewhere?

“I’m still not sure about it, but let’s try searching the house first.........”

I stand up from the chair and leave the living room.

According to the game’s setting, Takioto Kousuke’s academic ability is not to be praised.

The test results that was sealed in his notes and textbooks only have circles draw on only half of the answers. Even his magic history book or Japanese language textbooks have some low-level graffiti draw in it. And when I thought he should focus more on his study, somehow the textbooks from one year ago no longer have any drawing in it. Instead there were something about magic ritual or magic circles, a lot of things that were related with magic written on it.

I close the magic history book and pick up a magic textbook with a picture of a monkey drawn on it, an awfully clean magic textbooks.

“A magic that even a monkey can understand, huh?”

I flipped the page around, there is no writing, no creases or any sign that this book has ever been used before. Some questionable thing came up in my mind but I can’t solve it no matter how I think about it so I will stop thinking for now.

Let’s try reading it.

According to this book, everything born to this world possessed magical power and there are also magical power lingering around in the surrounding.

This matched the game’s setting.

Then, when you utilize those magic power a miracle occur, Magic. You can produce fire, water, wind, earth and even metal with magic.

In order to perform such a miracle, a magician must have a certain amount of magic power. The difference between normal people and magician are their magic capacity. or so it seems.

If it was like in the game then, Takioto Kousuke possessed a magical power amount on par with the teacher at the academy. if you counting only the amount of his magic that is.

“Ah, it’s like what was written in the book, is it this feeling? it feels kinda weird though.”

For example, just like how eyes and ears perceive light and sound, it seems like the whole body has become a new sensory organ to perceive magic. However, as you felt this mysterious warm power that overflows from the whole body, it seems that something similar also exists outside.The outside magic power softly touched me and it kinda felt ticklish.

“Why have I suddenly felt it so strongly just after I became conscious about it?”

Well, even if I think about it there would be no answer anyway. Then why don’t I just try using it now? If I can use it then I can ascertain that this is certainly magical power.

“Eeto, [Light].”

It is an easy spell that even a normal person could use, an illumination magic [Light].

To be honest, I am half doubting myself whether I could use even an easy magic like [Light]. However, immediately after I cast it, its effect immediately happened.

“Seriously........”

There’s a light ball floating in front of my eyes. I tried touching it with my hand but it only pass through the air. I also check whether there are some string-like electric wire attached to it but my hand felt nothing. Now, I try bringing my hand closer to the light.

“Ha, Haha, HAHAHAHAHAHA, Amaaaaaaaaziiiiiiing !”

I am unable to touch the light ball, I don’t have a fever. My hand just pierces through the light, tearing it apart. However, it soon rearrange itself and return to its original form then stopped its movement.

When I stopped supplying magic power, that mysterious light disappeared immediately.

I turn off the lights and close the curtains then try using it again.

Even though it was dim, the room was illuminated by a mysterious ball of light.

I stop the magic supply and make it disappear. Soon after the ball of light lose it power and the area return to darkness.

Then I recast [Light] to illuminate the room again.

“I can’t believe it.......”

The light that appeared was not a heat producing light that powered by electricity. It was a light created purely by magic. I cut the magic supply and making the light disappear then cast it again.

You would be moved every time you look at it, the mysterious power of magic is drawing me in.

You guys might question what the heck am I doing?

What I am doing right now is using the first magic I ever learn, Light.

This seems to be a magic that was taught to kids in kindergarten or primary school.

It wouldn’t be weird if I was told something like “What, you are moved by a basic magic like that? “

But it can’t be helped right?

What do you think would happen if people from a world where electricity was not yet discovered to watch television or browse the internet. They wouldn’t suddenly peed themselves but they would fall on their butt in surprise, right? But our world see electricity as normal because we lived with it since we were little so we are used to it. That’s why we were not surprised.

Magic is the same. If there’s a guy rotten enough to make fun of me in this world, I want to say this. Try visiting a world without magic. You guys might not find [Light] fascinating. But to me it’s an amazing light source that doesn’t even require electricity.

“Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaziiiiiing!”

I repeatedly cast and recast [Light] again and again. Every time I cast it my feeling toward magic becoming stronger and stronger.

I definitely want to learn magic.

I reach out to the light and put my hand over it. Then I slowly open my hand, and look at the never fading magic light. As I did that, something started to burn and smoldering in my heart.

I want to see and use various kinds of magic. I want to master this mysterious phenomenon. And if I am going to learn it anyway then I want to try aiming for the top.

“The top, huh.”

If Takioto Kousuke is exactly like he was in the game setting then he will have a considerable handicap. But still I want to aim for it. Rather Why wouldn’t I. It’s a world filled with supernatural phenomenon, you know?

“I have decided.”

My mind is made up.

I don’t know how long it will take, but I will defeat those battle junkies at student councils, the public moral committee and Shikibukai (Literally translates as ceremonial department) I will defeat these strongest three faction then finally.............

“I will beat the hell out of that cheat protagonist who can grow so strong to the level that he can solo the Demon King.”
