Magi’s Grandson

Late again what a f.u.c.king surprise.

In any case summer is has come to an end so I should have more time to translate now. IF I can pry myself away from all the games I couldn't play before I got my laptop. I believe that is the 9th time I said something similar.

Conform Child, the main editor for Magi, decided to step down due to college. It was a blast working with you man. Best of luck to you moving forward.

I left Yado Inn cuz stuff happened.

The noteless chapter is as well as the notless version for 75 cuz I forgot.

And now the music recommendation: Nothgard The Sinner's Sake (Melodic Death Metal)

This is a pretty loud chapter so I recommend reading with earplugs. The day before invading the demon territory.

The Earlshyde army is camped near the border of the former empire, now the border of the demon territory.

Earlshyde, which is larger in size than the neighbouring countries, was able to send out tens of thousands of troops without receiving aid from Els and Ys.

For the Earlshyde army, a certain measure was taken that wasn't taken in other armies.

This was the mobilization of the students from the Advanced Magic Academy and the Knights academy.

The World Union concluded that while there was no problem with the war potential, the students have undergone exceptional demon suppression training in case of emergencies, and have already managed to suppress a number of demons from before the summer vacation.

As it would serve as a good opportunity for the students to gain some real experience outside of training, and although it's only several hundred people, the students are accompanying the army on the march.

However, while they've subjugated many monsters already, that was only training. This time it's a genuine military operation.

Moreover it's a global operation deployed simultaneously by several countries.

"You've gone silent Kris. Don't tell me you're getting nervous with demons as your opponent?"(Miranda)

"Miranda No since we've hunted demons before in training it's not so bad, but this is a global military operation I'm nervous because I'm partic.i.p.ating in it."(Kris)

The students seemed nervous, even the top student of the knight academy, Kris.

Until now, there was never a case where Knight Academy students were sent off to the battlefield.

And now they were launched into a worldwide strategy.

No matter how many times you subjugated a demon, it's natural to feel nervous.

"You seem to be awfully calm though?"(Kris)

"Weeell Maybe it's because I heard of Maria's hards.h.i.+ps. I cannot seem to think of my situation as extreme."(Miranda)

Because of such circ.u.mstances, as opposed to Kris who is nervous to partic.i.p.ate in the operation rather than the demon subjugations, Miranda who was a Knight's Academy first year, could not be seen being so carefree.

When Kris asked about that, an unfamiliar name was mentioned.

"Maria?"(Kris)

"Don't you remember? When you guys were training, Walford's girlfriend I guess she's his fiance now? He did have a crush on her. Other than her, there was another girl."(Miranda)

Reminded of Sicily, a girl he had a crush on that was already taken by s.h.i.+n, Kris became slightly dejected.

"After that joint drill, we got along strangely well and began to meet each other quite often."(Miranda) (Kaelpie: Consorting with the enemy!? YOU HUSSY!)

"Is that so?"(Kris)

"Though Sicily was her childhood friend, she was busy preparing for her wedding to Walford, so whenever we had spare time, we would go together."(Miranda)

"W- Wedding"(Kris)

How enviable it is to have Sicily as a wife! He grinded his teeth with a fitting expression.

"Sigh are you still dragging that along? Give up already. Wasn't the engagement officially endorsed by his majesty? Besides Walford is said to be the Messenger of G.o.d, not just to Earlshyde, but to the entire world you know? Even if you bend over backwards you can't win."(Miranda)

""(Kris)

Miranda spoke in a manner that left no room for arguments only causing Kris to become more and more depressed.

Someone called out to the two.

"Leave it at that Miranda. Or else Kris might just break down."(Chris)

"Huhu, you've become quite reliable Miranda. I'm glad."(Sieg)

"Mister S-Siegfried! Christina!"(Miranda)

Siegfried and Christina wouldn't usually go to the battlefield as part of the Knight's Order or the Imperial Magic Division, but rather they work as bodyguards to the royal family, rarely stepping out of the Royal Palace. But the results they produced while looking after the students led them to be brought along.

"In any case, you became friends with Maria?"(Sieg)

"Y-Yes!"(Miranda)

"You don't have to be so stiff. And? What were you two talking about?"(Sieg)

Siegfried is very popular with girls.

He's a magician but his popularity is not solely amongst magicians. There are also fans among the knights, and Miranda is one of them.

It would be unreasonable for her to not be nervous while talking to someone she looks up to.

"Err, Uhm Sicily now that she's engaged to Mr.Walford and they're openly flirting around every day Rather than irritation she's growing more dismal"(Miranda)

"Err"(Sieg)

"Will we ever meet the special someone? Or"(Miranda)

".."(Sieg)

"How should we find a good man? Or"(Miranda)

"Enough! Enough already Miranda!"(Sieg)

Siegfried who slumped down just from hearing that and cut her off deciding to end the conversation.

"Miranda"(Chris)

"Yes?"(Miranda)

"Let's do our best together."(Chris)

"Ms.Christina Yes"(Miranda) (Kaelpie: Ladies and gentlemen; dialogue)

The two women encouraged each other to do their best to find a good man.

Meanwhile, Christina noticed a certain thing.

"Oh? That sword"(Chris)

"Oh, yes. It's a swap sword purchased from the Walford Company."(Miranda) (TN: I forgot how I named it before but swap sword sounds better so I'm using that now)

"Yes. Since it's something you're provided with after entering the military I wonder how you got it. Did you purchase it yourself?"(Chris)

"Yes. It was recommended by Maria. This as well."(Miranda)

Saying that she looked down at her feet.

"Mhm. You bought jet boots as well."(Chris)

"Maria also bought them so I bought them as well. I was able to gather the money by taking a part-time job as a monster hunter."(Miranda)

"Is that so? That's wonderful Miranda. You don't despair at the difference in ability between you and s.h.i.+n, and you have the determination to shrink that distance. I wish the others would follow your example."(Chris)

While Sicily went to s.h.i.+n's house to prepare for the wedding, Maria who was left behind was deepening her friends.h.i.+p with Miranda.

Before meeting a good man she seemed to have made a good girl friend.

"Well Compared to Maria's responsibility I'm totally free."(Miranda)

Her friend is the pivot of the strategy as a part of the Ultimate Magicians.

With that in mind, considering the senior knights position as the leaders, her own position is relatively miserable.

Cowardliness won over nervousness.

"Do you want to be strong?"(Chris)

"Yes. At the very least I want to be able to proudly say I'm friends with Maria."(Miranda)

Within Miranda's eyes lay a strong will of wanting to be strong in order to help her friend out.

"Well said. Miranda let me tell you something."(Chris)

"Y-Yes!"(Miranda)

"You're coming to the front lines with me. I will train you personally."(Chris)

"Huh?"(Miranda)

"Understood?"(Chris)

"Y-Yes! Thank you very much! I will do my best!"(Miranda)

"Haha, someday, I hope you'll be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Maria"(Chris)

"Yes!"(Miranda)

Thus, from the students, only Miranda was allowed to directly enter the battlefield.

After Christina explained it to her superior, she took Miranda to eat with her.

Siegfried and the other students just stood there watching in surprise.

"The two of you, what are you doing surrounding yourself with women Rather, what happened to leaders.h.i.+p?"(Sieg)

Siegfried sighs as he thinks of the distancing Spring of their youth, given their abrasiveness, and decides to take on the role of leaders.h.i.+p upon himself.

And the next day.

Finally, the demonic territory recapture strategy starts.

"Listen up! Unlike the other countries, we cannot receive the support of Walford's Ultimate Magicians! Therefore, if a disaster cla.s.s or even a devil appears by some misfortune, we must deal with it ourselves!"(Dominic)

Dominic, who was present at the departure ceremony at Darm, had s.h.i.+n send him to Earlshyde using Gate.

But understandably, the soldiers looked uneasy when they heard Dominic say they would have to kill a disaster cla.s.s by themselves.

"But don't be afraid! Especially the magic division! You followed the principles of the Magi and gained more power than ever! I guarantee it. You are strong!"(Rupert)

The magic division raises a shout to Rupert's encouraging speech.

At first glance, there were many people that looked anxious but their determination could be seen in their eyes.

"Knights as soldiers as well! Your new equipment you shed blood for No, that which has literally been stained by blood in order to use. I will also tell you this. You are strong!"(Dominic)

Knights and soldiers who have a fierce rivalry with the magic division also gave a courageous shout to Dominic's speech.

While being conscious of each other the morale rose to its peak.

"So let's go. Forward!"(Dominic)

[OOOOOOOOOO!!]

And so, the Earlshyde army advanced into the demon territory.

Once again, no demons appeared immediately, but after a while

"They're coming!"

"Everyone! Combat stations! Rupert, make the call."(Dominic)

"Sure thing! Magic Division! Prepare attack magic!"(Rupert)

Earlshyde Magic Division started gathering magic power on Rupert's signal.

It was a completely different sight from other countries.

No one chanted.

"FIRE!"(Rupert)

At the same time, the Magic Division fired their magic without a chant.

The magic that was released differed from conventional magic in a way that it was carefully manipulated so that it doesn't offset each other as much as possible, and in a completely different dimension.

"Amazing"

Students of the Advanced Magic Academy watched the great magic fired chantless with amazement in their eyes.

"Hey. Like what you see? Isn't the magic of s.h.i.+n and his peers on a completely different level?"(Siegfried)

To Siegfrieds words, the students of the Advanced Magic Academy kept quiet.

Two thirds of the students partic.i.p.ating are s.h.i.+n's seniors and the remaining third are from the same grade.

They are the pivot of the strategy in charge of getting rid of disaster cla.s.ses and devils.

While their battlefield experience is being under guidance.

Regretfully, the abilities of the juniors were too distant so they had harboured complicated feelings of 'he's the grandson of a hero so it can't be helped'.

Siegfried who read their expressions as giving up, asked them.

"Have you read the article published by the Inst.i.tute of Magic and Science?"(Sieg)(TN: I'm sorry I really don't remember the actual name. I really need to create a glossary after this.)

To Siegfrieds words, the students look down.

Increasing the amount of magic power you control will increase the power of magic and you will be able to use chantless magic.

It was an officially published article but of course they haven't read it.

"Why didn't you read it? Are you only counting what you learn from your teachers as training? s.h.i.+n never missed a day of training from a young age. And he never stopped self improvement. The result was the origin of a magician outside of reason. He wasn't born with special power. Everything was the result of hard work."(Sieg)

To be fair, s.h.i.+n was born with "knowledge" which were the memories of his past life, but as Siegfried said, he wasn't born with any special "power".

When they heard that, life came back to the eyes of the students.

It's frustrating. But if you can do it if you work hard then they too could.

Such determination dwelled in their eyes.

"If you understand, go help them."(Sieg)

[Yes!](Sheeple)

Advanced Magic Academy students stepped onto the battlefield.

"By the way, you lot from the Knight Academy."(Sieg)

Continuing on, Siegfried turned to the Knight Academy students

"I don't understand much about knights."(Sieg)

Since Christina isn't here, she can't pa.s.s on to them a knight knowledge.

Siegfried continues to the student who seems to have jolted.

"I don't understand it but you're the same. You only follow the instructions of your teacher."(Sieg)

Expectedly, all the Knight Academy students looked down.

"I can't give specific instructions because Chris isn't here but"(Sieg)

Siegfried looks over to everyone as he says that.

"Remember the reason why Chris picked Miranda."(Sieg)

The students start raising their heads.

"Miranda wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with Maria so she bought a sword by herself, bought jet boots, actually partic.i.p.ated in demon hunts on her own accord. Why can't you all do that?"(Sieg)(Kaelpie: Because the author said so. Seriously, at least HALF of these nitwits would want to be stronger by all means instead of just coasting.)

Think for yourself instead of following the teacher.

They believe that if they just do as the instructor says, they'll become stronger.

"That's common for students. Both the Magic Division and the Knight Order actively acquire new technologies and techniques to become stronger."(Sieg)

After saying that, Sieg turned back to the battlefield-

There was a sight where the knights wearing heavy armor used jet boots and were flying around up, down, left and right. A spectacle unimaginable until now.

"Haha. Now this is a spectacle. Is it fine? You guys. If you stay like this, won't you be left behind by the Order and Miranda?"(Sieg)

The Knight Academy students that heard those words had faces as if they've decided on something. (Kaelpie: Well who wouldn't be motivated by f.u.c.king s.h.i.+a LeBeouf over here?)

"We trained to slay demons after all! What good will it do if we're being a hindrance! We're also going!"(Mr. Shounen Powerup)

[OOOOOOOO!!](Shounen suckers)

When a third grader, a leader like figure, raised his voice, the rest of the students charged after him onto the battlefield.

"Hah, good grief. I guess I should follow them soon."(Sieg)

After scolding the students into stepping onto the battlefield, Siegfried went to join them when

"A disaster cla.s.s appeared!"

Although he was prepared, he received a report he didn't want to hear.

"Tch! What timing!"(Sieg)

He stopped going after the students and headed towards the disaster cla.s.s.

Now then, what do we have here

"What is that? A Rhino?"(Sieg) (Kaelpie: Biomes be f.u.c.ked apparently.)

There were several animals that were thought to be unable to transform into demons.

Humans also belonged to that category as well as rhinos, one of which is right in front of their eyes, elephants and also sea creatures such as whales etc.

Humans can control magic power on their own accord but some animals have displayed similar characteristics.

The reason being they're huge.

Therefore it was thought that large animals couldn't become demons

"Oi, oi Just what is this!?"(Sieg)

What it was was a rhinoceros demon with a ma.s.sive body, comparable to a two story building.

"Hey! What is that!? I've never heard of a rhinoceros turning into a demon!!"

"This is bad! Get away from it!"

"Ah! Don't run away right in front of it!"

Perhaps frustrated by the restless soldiers rus.h.i.+ng to get away in front of it, the rhino charged with its huge body.

"Get out of his way! Jump aside!"(Sieg) (Kaelpie: They can't. They went to the prometheus school of running away from things.)

Siegfried cried out and the soldiers who were in the rhinos path powered up their jet boots and jumped out of the way.

Just what would've happened if they didn't have jet boots.

Still

"Aah! Tch! This guy!"(Sieg)

Several people who were in the vicinity of the rhinoceros when he began the charge were delayed and got caught in his charge.

It's weight must be proportionate to it's ma.s.sive body and survival was out of the question.

Those who were far away, also got out of the way, leaving the other demons unattended.

Again, all of them retreated using jet boots.

The soldiers scattered in all directions like baby spiders but the demons remained where they were. There

"Uaa! The demons are overrunning us"

The rhinoceros charged again, trampling the neglected demons.

"This is Something terrible showed up."(Chris)

"Chris. Miranda, are you alright as well?"(Sieg)

"Y-yes!"(Miranda)

The voices belonged to Chris and Miranda who appeared next to Siegfried.

Both of them seemed to have escaped.

"What should we do about it?"(Chris)

"Even if you ask me. Well, I do have one idea."(Sieg)

"What did you come up with?"(Chris)

"Well, just look."(Sieg)

Siegfried looked back to the battlefield without answering Christina's question.

And looked for a moment when the rhinoceros finally stopped his charge to unleash his magic.

Siegfried's all out magic was more powerful than the first shot of the magic division but
