Episode 49: The Magic of Atrea

"Magic...... game?

Lynn was confused by Atrea's suggestion.

"Yeah, right. I don't know what to do."

Conceive while Atrea puts her index finger on her mouth.

"How about a little snooze?

"Hilarious?"

"Yes. Your win if you can touch anywhere in my body. If I can escape to the clock stand at the entrance of the tower, I win. If I can't reach the clock stand by 15: 00, you can win."

……

"You want to see it, don't you? Magic of the High Mage."

Lynn takes a look at Atrea's luxurious feet.

I didn't think I could beat her with magic knowledge, but I felt like I had a chance too if my legs were fast.

And then it depends on what magic Atrea uses...

"Okay. Rouru's approximate battle"

"Yeah, I'm gonna lose it."

To be honest, Lynn didn't feel like playing games, but she also knew she couldn't clear herself of this feeling of not floating.

Seeing the magic of Atrea might change your mood a little bit.

Anyway, whatever. I wanted to distract you.

"Come on in. It's your first time."

Atrea asks Hawk to spread her hand.

Lynn tried to reach out and touch Atrea's shoulder, surprised by Atrea's spare time.

Then Atrea suddenly disappears just enough to touch her or not.

(Disappeared? Where?)

"This way."

When I look at the voice, Atrea only grows her upper body out of the building windowsill, waving towards this one.

The lower body seemed to be in the glass when it came to it.

(In glass!?)

Lynn rushes to Atrea and reaches out, but she disappears again where she is about to touch her.

"Over here, over here"

Now he's growing his body out of the rainy water hoarding that just came down.

(Can you even put it in the water?)

"Isn't that amazing? Anything that reflects light and portrays you, you can put it in."

She's riding another building window again.

Lynn had to turn her head over there to find Atrea who was moving visibly.

"We need a lot of advanced technology. We have to capture exactly the reflection of the light that falls on the surface of the water and mirrors."

While saying so, Atrea moves to yet another window.

He rode further and further toward the watchtower.

"Damn."

Lynn rushes out.

"Ooh, sanko. Here. To the ringing."

Atrea rode from window to window and from water to water as she shrugged.

Lynn was desperate to follow Atrea with her eyes as she rode one after the other.

I was going to lose track of her just blinking.

(How can I catch you like this... Damn, I could borrow your wisdom if Theo was here)

—— You can't leave it to anyone else. If you don't think about it yourself, you won't get nothing--

Atrea said as if reading Lynn's thoughts.

Her voice, heard from the glass, echoes on Lynn's head like an echo coming from afar.

"That's what I said. How can I counter such magic..."

Lynn did her best just to chase him in reaction to the shadowy black remnants moving from window to window and from water hoard to water hoard.

—— Then let's give it a hint. I can move from window to window, but I can't travel anywhere unlimited. Just follow the path of light. We can't travel without light exchange between mirrors. I mean... --

(Right. If you go ahead and block between the windows...)

Lynn looks in the direction of the watch stand, which is the goal, to predict the glass or water surface on which Atrea will move next, and tries to get in between and block it.

Then Atrea started moving faster than earlier.

The black remnants travel between the glass and the water like a handsome beast.

(Beep. Early)

Lynn has been pulled apart all at once.

The speed at which she traveled was much faster than Lynn's all-powerful walk.

Lynn goes after him desperately, letting him out of breath. I was going to lose sight of her if I slowed down a bit.

Good luck. Basic magic should be enough to fight it. This magic is still a prelude. If I could break it, I could show you something more interesting, a view of the upper level of the tower. ——

"I can't believe the upper level of the tower. I don't know... what the hell are you going to do about it?"

I used to be just like you. I was satisfied with just carrying something heavy or glowing the ring. But how long has that been enough? I want to be more advanced and able to use magic more freely. Aim for the upper level of the tower for this purpose. Can't that be all? --

"That's why. That's why you don't let people die. Why do you need to do that?"

There's a lot of weight in what's been going on for a long time. It is a long history and tradition for the Wizards to wager the residence of the tower to fight. All the magicians who train in this tower have fought. Fight and climb to the height of the tower to the limits of your strength and talent, leaving the magic you knit in the form of a book in the tower. And you're dying. That's the life of the tower's magician. ——

It's raining again.

Naturally, the rain builds water reservoirs.

(Damn. This makes Atrea more and more advantageous.)

Lynn was poisoned in her heart. It was already at the end of my eyes and nose to the watch stand.

—— Though I don't know why the hell the person you're talking about was aiming for the upper level of the tower. If you've decayed for heights, even if you're halfway down the road, you should be looking forward to it as a magician. You must have come here looking for a magician too, right? What the hell makes you unhappy and dusk like that? --

"I'm anxious!

Lynn screamed.

"I... we have no guarantee for the future. I'm not even sure about tomorrow. He just keeps wandering through the maze in the blindfolded darkness. How could you..."

—— You're totally engulfed with College values, too ——

Lynn gets her leg taken off by a puddle and slips. The rain made me fall flashy over the wet ground.

"Say."

I can see someone's leg in front of me when I try to get up. Looking back, there was Atrea.

"Are you okay?"

Atrea asks me worried.

When Lynn looked around, he was coming under the clockbench at some point. It was still raining.

"Apparently, I won."

Atrea looks cool as usual.

I'm tired of using all that magic and I can't see one.

The rain is only avoiding around her. She seemed to be wearing an invisible umbrella with magical powers.

Lynn realized once again that she was at a far height as a demon mentor.

"Ha. You're invincible."

Lynn leaked a dry laugh. I was feeling a little clearer and clearer because I ran and shouted though.

"How can I get you?

"If you can go to a higher hierarchy than you are now and master more advanced magic, or maybe you can catch me."

The bell sounds from somewhere. It was proof that it was fifteen o'clock.

"Time. I have to go now."

Atrea says remorsefully and walks away.

"See you then. Lynn. Hope to see you in the tower next."

"Renlil and Alfrid can see you anytime."

Lynn spoke toward Atrea's back as she walked away.

But she never stopped.

"You can't go to Renlil and Alfrid. My master forbids me to go in and out. Because in those two cities, there's nothing worth to me anymore."
