Chapter 172 – [Elemental Wizard] Silence Calls for Determination
Eric seems to be in a very bad condition.
After that day, I somehow stuck by his side and helped him regain his strength, but it feels like everything has gone to waste.
It’s all about Luella, that motherfuckin’ bitch…
Blood shot!
“… Uni, focus!”
“Yes, yes!”
Now is not the time for this.
I held on to the pounding heart of the spirit that passed through my head and quickly attempted a counterattack.
Sharpen the water elemental.
More, more, more.
A spirit without a self doesn’t scream, but these days I can hear it for some reason.
But as Master said, to end the war, you must be ruthless.
I sent the spirit sharpened to the limit as if shooting it at Master Ertina.
Bang!
Naturally, the stream of water was blocked by Master’s earthen wall.
I kind of expected this.
But my goal is not to break through.
You can penetrate it if you concentrate, but today is not the time for that.
I poured out several sharp streams of water.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“The attack is too monotonous!”
I know.
I carefully called on the wind spirit while pouring streams of water to distract her.
Come on, let’s go together.
I wrapped a sharp wind around a stream of water and shot it out.
“It’s no use…”
Crispy!
Before the water could reach the earthen wall, the blade-like wind gnawed at it, spreading dirt everywhere.
“Oh…”
And my target was those scattered soil particles.
Tadadadak!
Things that were dusty clung to Ertina’s body.
“You approached it this way. The practicality is low, but the purpose is achieved anyway. OK, I’ll admit it.”
“Whew…”
The goal of this sparring is to hit her with her blows.
It seems like a bit of a foul, but anyway, it’s like an ‘attack’ with soil.
In fact, it seems that Master saw this too.
“Huh, how did you get more and more tricks like this?”
“Lol.”
She came up to me and banged her on the head.
I didn’t know at first, but after living together, she was more playful and fun than I thought.
Even though they are elves, they don’t seem to be very different from humans.
“Let’s rest for a while.”
“Yes!”
We just sat on the floor and rested for a while.
Since I’m not doing anything, I suddenly think of Eric.
What is Eric doing now?
When I secretly called the spirit to check, Master stopped me.
“I don’t like it if you keep obsessing over it like that. If you find out later, you will be in trouble.”
“… You already know?”
“What?”
For the first time, she made a surprised expression.
“You still don’t say anything?”
“Lol…”
Eric doesn’t deny what I say.
He’s been like that since he was a kid.
As an orphan, he was often teased by his peers even in the village.
Everyone was kind to me, whose dad is the village chief, but he was the opposite to him.
Because there was no one to protect the little child.
I know that… It was a little sad.
“You were childhood friends, you guys.”
“Yes, I spoke to Eric first.”
Dad didn’t seem to like it very much at first, but thanks to Eric’s natural good heart, he slowly opened up his heart.
Of course, in fact, it’s where I taught you how to do it.
I know best what my dad likes, right?
“Kids his age keep bullying Eric… So I talked.”
If you keep bothering me, I’ll scold you.
Trusting his size, he separately went to one child who did the worst thing and told him well.
I was scolded by my dad for being too harsh, but I still don’t think it was wrong.
Daddy doesn’t know how bad kids play.
For children, there are things closer than words.
“Huh… ? I wonder if you told me that… Um, no. Please continue.”
Anyway, from then on, no one stopped the two of us.
Yes, there were no obstacles.
Until that day…
My teeth grind when I think of the two of them playing around with that dirty man.
Bad bitches.
Eric seems to like it, so he gave up his seat with a big heart, but does he hurt you like this?
While Eric was unable to speak and worried about getting hurt, the matter only got bigger and bigger, and by that time, it was no longer a problem to block it and go to sleep.
There was no way to stop Eric’s heartache.
If so, I’ll have to use another method.
If Eric is in a situation where he can’t help but be disappointed, then of course I should at least fill that hole in his heart.
Is that right?
Because there is no one better suited than me.
If you’re going to do that, I’d prefer the most dramatic form.
That way, Eric will feel a lot of loss, and that’s why he’ll value me more.
“Uni, you seem a bit strange too.”
“Yes?”
“Normally I don’t think so.”
“… Is that so?”
Is that a bit strange too?
I think my dad said something about this too.
You have to be careful.
“So what did you want to talk about?”
“… What do you want to say?”
Never said anything like that?
“You are thinking about something.”
“Ah…”
It did.
Master Ertina was so observant that it almost seemed like she could read people’s minds.
With her own sharp insight, she saw through the troubles that I had consciously tried to forget.
“That is…”
I pondered for a moment whether I should say this.
No matter how much she helps us, she is also the Four Heavenly Kings…
“I’m on Uni’s side.”
“… It was.”
Well, I don’t think she can hide it from her anyway…
I lightly shared my concerns.
Maybe I just wanted to ask someone for advice.
“Um… The hero seems to be hiding something, but you don’t know what it is?”
“Yes… I said everything was fine, but he won’t tell me.”
Obviously, there are circumstances that cannot be told to me.
If it wasn’t for that, you wouldn’t be able to keep your mouth shut like this.
“Originally, everyone has at least one secret…”
“Eric and I are gone.”
“No, anyone…”
“No.”
Ertina put on a slightly embarrassed expression.
“OK got it. Let’s do something like that. Anyway, even if it has been so far, it may be so in the future.”
“No way…”
“But isn’t it really like that now?”
I shut my mouth at her words.
At least it’s true that he has a secret from me now.
“Anyway, if the two of you can’t talk even though they’re about to tell you all their secrets, it probably means you shouldn’t talk that much.”
“Where is that? I can understand everything.”
“Well… Is it something that will hurt you if I say it?”
There’s no way Eric would say something that would hurt me.
But what if you think?
If the thought hurts me, wouldn’t Eric do it too?
Maybe it’s just that he’s not talking while looking at me for no reason, and he’s in a state of dissatisfaction?
I hope it can’t be
“But no matter how you look at it, she is Luella… You seem to be worried about women, but that has nothing to do with me.”
“Since it’s the same year, you don’t have to hide your words.”
“Ah, it was true.”
We looked at each other and burst into laughter.
Really, whenever this happens, she feels like a friend to her rather than an enemy.
“Maybe there is a point of contact you don’t know about.”
“Contact…”
I pride myself on knowing Eric better than anyone else in the world.
Maybe you know better than yourself? Maybe I know better than Eric.
That’s what I think, Eric, who lost to Luella, will be very divided.
I was embarrassed and felt ashamed of myself.
You must have felt the need to become stronger
Maybe that’s why it seems like he’s been training more diligently lately. It doesn’t seem to be going well.
Yes.
Eric will think he needs to develop his power more.
Right now, Eric is concentrating on increasing his divine power, so he must be that way.
And in order to increase that divine power, excitement is needed, as Sera, a fake nun with a suspiciously big breast said.
Excitement… Hurt me…
“Did you find something out?”
“Um… I’m not sure yet.”
Wouldn’t it be nice to do it with me?
Then isn’t that enough to make you stronger?
Maybe you didn’t feel too good?
No, that reaction couldn’t have been acting.
… Compared to that man, it’s definitely a calm reaction.
But that would just be a personality difference.
Because Eric doesn’t react so vulgarly.
“Master, by any chance… If a man likes you, how will he react?”
Yes, Ertina said that she was a lover even with the former hero, so she will surely give you a good answer.
At least the former hero must have looked more like Eric than that man.
“Huh? That’s usually…”
However, what she said also seemed more like the man’s reaction.
… Could it be that it was really bad?
“What’s the matter? You don’t look good.”
“… What if Eric doesn’t like what he’s doing with me?”
“Huh? That’s not going to happen. You seem to like it.”
I was curious about her words.
“How the hell do you know all that?”
“Ah, if you use the spirits, you can detect things like bodily reactions. After observing it for a long time, I felt that if I had some kind of emotion, this kind of reaction would come out.”
This is it!
If this is it, wouldn’t I be able to check Eric’s reaction?
“Hey, maybe that… Can I learn too?”
“Uh? It’s possible but… You don’t have to learn this…”
She didn’t seem to want to tell me, but when I tried hard, she finally let me know.
I’m used to this because my dad did it a lot since I was little.
Anyway, thanks for learning a new skill.
By this, I can tell how excited Eric was.
Even so, it seems that the reaction has slowed down a bit these days.
Let’s check this out.
… Should there be a point of comparison?
I think those three would be adequate.
If they’re excited, they’ll have a similar reaction, and if that’s a baseline, you’ll know how excited Eric is when he makes love to you.
Please, I hope it will stop raining.
If… If I don’t get the results I expected…
Then…
“Look at my mind. It’s already time Uni, it’s because you said useless things.”
“Hehe, sorry. I will work harder tomorrow.”
“Ha… I’m going to do what I couldn’t do today, so be prepared.”
“Yes!”
After wrapping up her and her training of the day, I walked slowly down her aisle, reminding her of what she had learned.
To compare Eric with them.
