Magi’s Grandson

Late againwhat a f.u.c.king surprise.

In any case summerishas come to an end so I should have more time to translate now.IFI can pry myself away from all the games I couldnt 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 FOR 75 IS UNDER THIS ONE.

And now the music recommendation: Nothgard The Sinners Sake (Melodic Death Metal)

The struggles of the Earlshyde Army.

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 wasnt 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 its only several hundred people, the students are accompanying the army on the march.

However, while theyve subjugated many monsters already, that was only training. This time its a genuine military operation.

Moreover its a global operation deployed simultaneously by several countries.

Youve gone silent Kris. Dont tell me youre getting nervous with demons as your opponent?(Miranda)

Miranda No since weve hunted demons before in training its not so bad, but this is a global military operation Im nervous because Im 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, its natural to feel nervous.

You seem to be awfully calm though?(Kris)

Weeell Maybe its because I heard of Marias 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 Knights Academy first year, could not be seen being so carefree.

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

Maria?(Kris)

Dont you remember? When you guys were training, Walfords girlfriend I guess shes 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)

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. Wasnt 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 cant 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, youve become quite reliable Miranda. Im glad.(Sieg)

Mister S-Siegfried! Christina!(Miranda)

Siegfried and Christina wouldnt usually go to the battlefield as part of the Knights 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 dont have to be so stiff. And? What were you two talking about?(Sieg)

Siegfried is very popular with girls.

Hes 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 shes engaged to Mr.Walford and theyre openly flirting around every day Rather than irritation shes 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)

Lets do our best together.(Chris)

Ms.Christina Yes(Miranda)

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. Its a swap sword purchased from the Walford Company.(Miranda) (TN: I forgot how I named it before but swap sword sounds better so Im using that now)

Yes. Since its something youre 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? Thats wonderful Miranda. You dont 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.+ns 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 Marias responsibility Im 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 Im friends with Maria.(Miranda)

Within Mirandas 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)

Youre 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 youll 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 Walfords 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 dont 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 Ruperts 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 Dominics speech.

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

So lets go. Forward!(Dominic)

[OOOOOOOOOO!!]

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

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

Theyre 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 Ruperts 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 doesnt 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? Isnt 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.+ns 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 hes the grandson of a hero so it cant 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: Im sorry I really dont 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 havent read it.

Why didnt 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 wasnt 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 wasnt born with any special power.

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

Its 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!]

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 dont understand much about knights.(Sieg)

Since Christina isnt here, she cant pa.s.s on to them a knight knowledge.

Siegfried continues to the student who seems to have jolted.

I dont understand it but youre the same. You only follow the instructions of your teacher.(Sieg)

Expectedly, all the Knight Academy students looked down.

I cant give specific instructions because Chris isnt 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 cant you all do that?(Sieg)

Think for yourself instead of following the teacher.

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

Thats 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, wont you be left behind by the Order and Miranda?(Sieg)

The Knight Academy students that heard those words had faces as if theyve decided on something.

We trained to slay demons after all! What good will it do if were being a hindrance! Were also going!

[OOOOOOOO!!]

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 didnt 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)

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 theyre huge.

Therefore it was thought that large animals couldnt 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!? Ive never heard of a rhinoceros turning into a demon!!

This is bad! Get away from it!

Ah! Dont 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)

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 wouldve happened if they didnt 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.

Its weight must be proportionate to its 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 Christinas question.

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

Siegfrieds all out magic was more powerful than the first shot of the magic division but

Tch! What hard skin. No damage at all Tch!(Sieg)

The rhino demon rushes again towards Sieg that released the magic.

He activated the jet boots and jumped out of the rhinos path.

Oh, theyre being overrun.(Sieg)

When Siegfried looked back before releasing the magic shot, it was not to check if any soldiers were in the line of fire.

It was to confirm whether there were demons or not.

Because of his big body, once the rhino starts rus.h.i.+ng he cant change direction or stop easily.

Because he trampled over other demons without a care, Siegfried decided to use that to mop up the remaining demons.

The strategy seems to have worked out excellently.

Were they reduced drastically?(Sieg)

Siegfried is amazing! The demons have diminished considerably!(Miranda)

Sieg, you(Chris)

What is it?(Chris)

Arent you starting to think like s.h.i.+n?(Chris)

Hey! Seriously?!(Sieg)

While Miranda was simply admiring the Siegfried who had returned, Christina quitely pointed out that it was a strategy s.h.i.+n would think of.

When he heard it, Siegfried couldnt hide his shock.

In any case, Siegfrieds strategy seems to be effective.

The soldiers who were watching incited the rhino in the same way to trample the demons.

Other soldiers rounded up the demons as much as possible to where the rhino would rush through.

The other demons seem to be manageable now.

The problem is the big fella himself(Sieg)

Siegs full power magic was easily brushed off.(Chris)

d.a.m.n! Well, its an animal that has thick skin from the start! By turning into a demon, it got a tremendous defensive boost!(Sieg)

But What should we do then?(Miranda)

Miranda, who was listening to Siegs and Chris discussion asked how to break through.

Well, the skin may be thick, but the joints arent.(Chris)

Then Is it our turn(Miranda)

Attack the joints with a sword. Thats the only choice we have left(Chris)

Y- you people(Miranda)

Its protected by hard skin, but if its joints were hard it couldnt charge.

Both the legs and the neck will probably be soft.

Then theres no way to take it down but to strike its neck with a sword.

Well then, Ill stop it. Go for its neck in the opening.(Sieg)

Stop it Can you do it?(Chris)

Yeah. Im gonna do what s.h.i.+n did.(Sieg)

A method s.h.i.+n used Then it should be all right.(Chris)

Huh? So easily?(Miranda)

Siegfried came up with a way of stopping it by watching s.h.i.+n hunt and Chris decided there was no problem with that.

Even though Miranda saw s.h.i.+ns power, she was surprised the approval was given so quickly.

Idiot! Come here!(Sieg)

Siegfried released magic again and guided the rhino to a certain distance.

When he saw the rhino begin to charge once more he launched another magic.

A large earth wall appeared in front of the rhino.

Ther- Theres no way a wall will stop it!(Miranda)

Miranda raises a sorrowful voice to the fact the stopping method is an earth wall.

I see. So its like that.(Chris)

Huh? What do you mean?(Miranda)

Youll understand when you see it. More importantly Everyone! The rhinoceros will stop soon! Prepare for attack!(Chris)

A command come from Christina, who believes the rhino will be stopped by that.

She didnt doubt the words of Christina she admired as a female knight, but she couldnt believe it.

And then.

b.u.mOOOOOO!!

Rhinos charge destroys the earth wall with ease.

Aghhh!

It was useless after all. Miranda thought so but her eyes opened wide because of what happened after that.

In the first place, what was the earth wall made of?

An earth wall isnt just created out of nothing..

A Hole(Miranda)

He collected soil on from the ground to make the wall. Of course, there was no soil remaining from where he gathered it from, leaving a large hole in the ground.

A pitfall concealed behind the earth wall.

The rhino lost his footing and grandly fell into the pit.

Alright! Now! Go!(Sieg)

Im going! Follow me!(Chris)

OOOOOOOO!!

Siegfried issued a command to Christina, as a cloud of dust swirled up from when the rhino fell into the pit, who then gave a command to the knights in response.

Its breathtaking.

Knights activate their jet boots and attack the fallen rhino one after another.

Mirandas figure could also be seen among those knights.

TAKE THIS!(Miranda)

She strikes with the full power of her body but, being slightly thinner than the others, it cant penetrate the skin as easily.

Ugh! Its hard!(Miranda)

Move, young lady! Ooooraaaa!

While Miranda was having difficulties piercing the skin, the knights next to her raised their swords but

s.h.i.+t! Its really hard!

If this keeps up itll get out soon! Quick!(Chris)

The fallen rhino was raging while surrounded by a large number of knights.

As Christina said, its likely to get out however, they can barely hit it with it raging like that.

Their foothold shook. Could they really not do anything? Miranda thought of an idea.

Everyone get away!(Miranda)

Hah? What

The knights who reacted to Mirandas shout saw

The figure of Miranda who activated jet boots, soared into the sky and plummeted with her sword pointing downwards.

UOOOOOO! Youre sure reckless!

GOOOO(Miranda)

Miranda thought that she couldnt transmit enough power through her hands so she stood on the swords hilt and fell onto the rhinos neck from above.

Miranda thought that she couldnt transmit enough power through her hands so she stood on the swords hilt and fell onto the rhinos neck from above.

And the sword dug into the rhinos neck which only had small scratches until that point.

OO! You did it! Young lady!

But I havent reached it yet Tch! The sword!(Miranda)

It digged in yes, but the sword wouldnt come out.

She tried desperately to pull it out but then remembered something.

Oh, I can just remove it(Miranda)

While the swords blade was stuck in the rhinos neck she removed it which was a feature of the swap sword.

Then, seeing the stuck sword blade, she hit it again..

Miranda put her foot onto the stuck sword blade

Miranda, what are(Chris)

Hiyaaa!(Miranda)

She activated jet boots at full power.

Then the sword cut deeper with the momentum of the jet boots.

b.u.mOOOOOOOO!!

The rhinoceros was suffering because of the sword stuck deep in his neck.

However you cant cause a fatal injury with a sword smaller than the body.

Nevertheless, an opening was visible.

Its effective! Well follow suit!

The knights that saw that, took flight and struck with swords as they descended.

Woah! Careful! You grazed me!

Sorry! The fine tuning is a bit

There was an accident where a knight descended closely where another knight fell but the swords are getting sucked into the neck of the demon that was once overwhelmingly strong.

While the knights pierced with swords and left the blades, Miranda, who stabbed first, descend from the sky once again.

GOOO!

Burying the sword in the neck, remove the handle and let it dig in using jet boots.

There was already a number of swords stuck in the rhinoceros demon and he had trouble breathing until he gave one final convulsion and turned silent.

Oh?

How is it?

A voice could be heard from the knights above, informing those below them.

The disaster cla.s.s is down! Subjugation complete!

A knight inspected the demon and confirmed it was slain.

[OOOOOOOO!!]

The excited soldiers raised a loud victory shout to the subjugation of the disaster cla.s.s.

Halt your celebration! There are still remaining demons!(Dominic)

[OOOOOOOO!!]

Dominic rebuked the soldiers who were in high spirits, but the morale boosted troops rushed to sweep away the remaining demons.

You dont have to go. You can rest a little.(Dominic)

C-Commander Dominic!? B-But(Miranda)

Dominic stopped the wobbling Miranda that went after the remaining demons.

Miranda is surprised the top person in the Earlshyde army started talking to her.

But everyone else went to suppress the demons and only she was told to stay and rest, so she headed off despite her staggering self.

Please rest well. Arent you still a student? And you subjugated the disaster cla.s.s, shouldnt you take it easy?(Dominic)

It was the second time she had seen a disaster cla.s.s.

However, unlike the joint training where s.h.i.+n overwhelmed them by himself, she had to partic.i.p.ate in the subjugation this time.

The mental fatigue is stronger than the physical one.

In any case, well done. Wonderful.(Dominic)

O-oh, thank you!(Miranda)

Miranda is excited to receive encouragement from Dominic.

Falling from the sky Quick thinking to come up with that.(Dominic)

Oh, that, Maria(Miranda)

Maria?(Dominic)

Commander. Shes a friend from the Ultimate Magicians, Maria von Messina.(Miranda)

What!? Was that so!(Dominic)

Miranda tensed up to Dominics sudden outburst at the mention of a familiar name Christina worked hard.

That After purchasing jet boots, I worked with Maria hunting demons part time as exercise. Because my own allowance wasnt enough I borrowed some money from Maria(Miranda)

As a student, shes doesnt have a salary so her only income is an allowance from her parents.

However she doesnt receive enough to buy magical tools such as jet boots and swords.

So during summer break, she hunted a large number of demons working part time and even borrowed some money from Maria who is rather well off in order to pay for the new equipment.

But thats dangerous. Students working part time to hunt demons.(Dominic)

Because Maria was there. That girl Recently, she said she was bored of hunting all the disaster cla.s.ses(Miranda)

she hunted enough, to grow tired of hunting disaster cla.s.ses(Dominic)

Dominics worries are justified, but shes accompanied by someone powerful enough to take down a disaster cla.s.s by herself. His worries were for naught.

At that time Maria did something she called a [jump stab]. Apparently she saw Walford do it It only suddenly occurred to me to use the jet boots to deliver a finis.h.i.+ng blow.(Miranda)

Walford thought of that at first Did he? Im convinced by that alone.(Dominic)

Dont worry Commander. Me too.(Christina)

I get it too. My pitfall was also originally his idea. Just what is going on in that head of his?(Sieg)

Miranda remembered that Maria was only imitating what s.h.i.+n did.

As Siegfried said as he came up to Miranda, he imitated the pitfall from when he went hunting with s.h.i.+n.
