Chapter 244
If you can maintain the strength of your mana with less mana, simply using magic like you always do will see its strength increased .
However, minimizing mana consumption is better suited for training than trying to increase firepower .
Since mana control is largely about familiarizing yourself with it, the more times you do it the better you are at it .
“I-I understand!”
” . . . How about you Mathi-kun, can you perfectly control your mana?”
“Well, I can use up to the limit of my current mana circuit . From there on is something to tackle on . ”
The previous me commanded mana whose quality far exceeded my current one .
As such, I’ve no problem with controlling it, familiarity-wise .
The training Ruli and Alma are doing to familiarize themselves with mana control is unnecessary for me .
. . . But mana circuit is another matter .
My body right now cannot completely control this mana .
The higher the mana quality you can use, the higher the load on your body’s mana circuit .
To build a body capable of controlling my current mana, I need to temper the magic circuit inside it .
While the girls are training their mana control, I should do my round as well .
◇
“Eyy! . . . I did it!”
“Me too!”
The two immediately got the knack .
They keep shooting magic and continue to decrease their mana consumption .
I can just leave them alone now, they’ll get the hang of controlling mana sooner or later .
“What should I do while waiting . . . ?”
Iris came and asked me while I was watching the two girls .
Iris cannot control her mana well indeed . . . But that’s because she has her circumstances .
It’s not like she can’t do it . She was able to in the past .
However, her mana circuit was broken when she was caught in mana fusion reactor explosions .
Dragon’s mana circuits aren’t something easily repairable .
Her broken dragon’s mana circuit hasn’t been restored just because she’s in her human form .
Therefore Iris can’t be training to control her mana .
. . . Well in 20 years time, Ruli should be able to fix her magic circuit, and that much time is not particularly long to Iris .
She’s got no choice but to abandon any hope of correct mana control until then .
That said, Iris has her own problem too .
“In your case Iris, training in mana control would be difficult since your mana circuit is broken . But you can train how you move your body, try practice swinging your spear around while leaping over that hole over and over . ”
I pointed at a hole on the ground .
It’s the sloppily constructed ceiling hole that I fell into .
It’s 5 meter wide in diameter .
Iris and her leg strength should be capable of easily jumping over this much .
A chance to do these straightforward practices comes by surprisingly rare .
This is a good opportunity as any .
“I got it!”
Iris started to repeatedly leap over the hole .
Yep, this much is nothing for Iris .
But, the moment she swung her spear . . .
“Aa!”
Iris lost her footing and came crashing down the hole .
But since the Monster House had used up all its mana ealier, no monster appeared .
“T-this is difficult . . . ”
Iris jumped out of the hole as she said that .
Then she resumed her training again .
“Au!”
Even though she fell many times over, she kept climbing out of the hole and continued her training .
Despite her looks, Iris is surprisingly assiduous .
. . . Though it may be because her sense of time is simply different since she’s been alive for thousands of years .
