The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

By the time I returned to the Inn, Milly was already in the process of eating her lunch.

A large quantity of bread and stir-fried vegetables, meat and fish..

Milly was still behaving herself, using a knife and fork to eat, but there was already a considerable amount of plates on the table.

Welcome home. Zeph, ClaudeAh, those clothes are really cute! Did you buy it just now?

Thank you..Eh, thats a lot of food you are eating, Milly-san

Its because I knew you two were coming back. So I ordered more Im also really hungry

Nihihi, Milly laughed.

How did you know we were coming back?

Recently, my perception of magic has become really sensitive. Maybe its because Ive been around you guys for long time? Its especially easy to notice Zephs presence, because his magical energy is really strong

To be able to sense magic from a long distance, if I am not mistaken, it should require a considerably high amount of skill, being at such a young age, yet she already able to do such a thing?

Milly is incredible.

Oh? But for some reason, I cant sense Azaleas magic at all

She may have suppressed her magical energy. Especially for those with a calling to being assassin type magicians, I have heard that they possess the ability to hide their existence from others

Heeh~ I seeOr more like, is that dispatched magician here? in this town!? Youre talking like you know her as an acquaintance or something.

Ah, Claude, I didnt tell you about it? Just yesterday, we met up with that person

Come to think of it I havent mentioned this to Claude.

That Azalea, is actually the younger sister of one of our acquaintances. The reason why she seemed so intimidating when we first met her, was apparently because she was using that sort of spell to amplify her aura

Isthat so?

Of course I am not going to just completely believe in her words, but yeah

Zeph is such a worry wart~ Just from her appearance, she didnt seem like a bad person

Even if you think so, its always better to be careful about these things, you fool

Ihyahya! Ihya iheefefu

Milly was going to talk back to me, so I pinched her cheeks and spread them apart.

By the way, since we are on the topic of dispatch magicians, Ive remembered something that I wanted to show you guys. After we finish eating, do you guys mind if we all go to Lydias place?

Claude and Milly were exchanging looks with each other, and whilst they did this I bit into the meat that was placed on the table.

Oyo? Did you guys have something to discuss with me? I am sure I told you guys that I have to stay over and watch the store for today, so I cant go hunting, right?

When we went over to Lydias store, she was wearing her apron and was still in the middle of her working shift.

My bad for interrupting your work. This will only take a short moment, do you mind if we discuss this a little more privately?

Hm? I dont mind butIs this some interesting thing again?

Lydia seemed interested in what I had to say, and she was leading us to the interior of her shop.

After going in everyone sat down on a chair. I took out the Growth Scroll from my bag and placed it in the center of the table where everyone gathered around.

Whats this? It looks like some sort of scroll? Where did you get it from?

Milly was persistently asking me questions and I momentarily stopped moving.

Now that you mention it. I havent really thought about how I was going to explain this to everyone did I? I dont really think I want to go to the trouble of explaining about Seruberie..

This isSomething I picked up

I just spouted a lame excuse.

Incidentally, Zeph usually gets up really early in order to hunt alone, right? Did you pick this up during those times?

Ahhyeah, thats right

Nice follow! Claude.

Fuu~nn a scroll.? Isnt this unrelated to me?

Lydia seemed to have lost interest and had both of her hands locked behind her head, when I turned my gaze towards her, she was looking straight back at me.

This is a magical scroll named Growth, I dont really have all the details, but apparently, just by having this scroll, you are able to learn a magic that is able to increase the rate at which you grow and learn. If you can grasp the theoretical concepts behind it, anyone would be able to learn this scroll

I have never used magic before, even I can learn it?

Even if you dont possess any magical energy, it is possible to learn this scroll. Ive already memorized it myself, so I wanted to pass this around and have everyone learn it

After that I passed the growth scroll to everyone around the table and everyone was able to acquire the spellExcept for Lydia.

Ahh~ Mouu I dont get this at all~!

Her hair was all frizzled up and she lay her head on the table as if her brains were about to short circuit. Because the scroll itself was written with magical characters, humans without any magic might find it harder to understand..however, I dont think it should be as difficult as thisI suppose, shes really a muscle-brain type person?

It cant be helped, Leave it to me!

Milly sat opposite from Lydia, and started teaching her in the magical ways..However, Millys teaching methods were a little abstract and she couldnt get the point across very well.

Like I said, you need to feel the magic inside of your body and let it out, and then you need to concentrate so that you can grasp it firmly within your hands!

..If you explain it like that, how would she be able to understand

Thats right Milly-san. To begin with, what you are teaching her is actually the method to shoot out magic

If she becomes able to use magic, dont you think it would be really easy for her to learn the scroll?

If you go about it that way, then the steps are completely reversed

Please leave it to me. Lydia-san, if you want to learn about magic, you only need to learn the theory. All you need is to understand it, then everything should be fine

Milly seemed to be making no progress so I guess Claude volunteered herself to become Lydias teacher.

First off, shall I start from the notion of what magic actually is?

P.Please dont be too hard on me..

Claude was grinning but Lydia could only return a stiff smile.

And so for that reasonUmm, Lydia-san are you still listening to me?

UnnnIm listening but I dont understand it at all!

Lydia spoke out decisively as if admitting it made her feel refreshed.

I think that even though Millys explanations were a little jumbled up, I found that a little easier to understand

Eh..? Youre kidding..

Claude who was just told that she was actually below Milly in terms of teaching magic received a big shock to her mentality.

The thing about Claudes explanations was that she spoke in a soothing continuous tone, and it acted like a lullaby for Lydia as it became easy for her to drift off to sleep.

It cant be helped; I guess Im the only one left who is able help her.

Switch with me Claude. For someone like Lydia, dont you think that it will be much faster to drive it into her body rather than speak to her with words? Lydia, take off your clothes and please turn your back towards me

Wawawa-waitt Zeph-kun!? What are you saying!?

Zeph-chi is finally reaching the pubescent age to be able to say such a thing

I.It doesnt have any kind of weird meaning naiwa! All I am going to try to do is communicate with your magical energy channels from the outside, and try to carve the growth scroll directly into you. If you dont really want to take off your clothes, you dont really have to you know?

Saying that I turn behind Lydia and just thrust my hands under her clothes.

Hyaah!? Wait a moment, can you please not touch any weird spots~

The clothes are obstructing me. Once I manage to locate where your magical veins are it will be fine, so just endure it until then

I..I got it! Ill take it off! So just take your hands off me for a second~

Ah.Umm, it looks like Im only being a hindrance here soIm going to go outside for a bit

Claude wasnt able to stay here any longer it seems? Her face was blushing like a tomato and she quickly left the room in hurried footsteps, on the other hand, Lydia began to cheerfully take off her clothes.

Haa, you know? you didnt really need to thrust it in so suddenly

If you just listened to me from the beginning it would have helped a lot

Lydias clothes fell to the floor with a light thud and her wide back appears before my eyes.

Her back was really well toned and in contrast with her white skin, she was like some kind of beautiful sculpture come to life.

H..Hurry up already! Its embarrassing you know?

Ahyeah, I know

I was charmed for a second there

Magic is concentrated on to my right hand and when I gently touched her back, she reacted with a twitch.

Lydias magic was so miniscule that I couldnt even use Scout Scope to measure it. Moreover, her magical veins which were supposed to circulate the magical energy around her body was really thin, so it was really hard for me to find it.

When I continued to crawl my hands across her back, Lydia began to leak out small moans from her lips.

..T-this feels kinda weirdZeph-chi it feels like.Your hands are moving inside of me..

Lydias the type that likes to learn by physically moving your body, right? Everyone in this world holds magical energy in their bodies, therefore, rather than teaching you in a lecture type manner, I think it will be easier for you to feel the magic if its directly poured inside of your body

When I started to teach Lydia magic, it was in the manner of teaching a student with talent but who just couldnt activate magic for some reason.

Do you think that if this goes well, that I might even be able to use some magic from now on?

That would be impossible. Lydias magical channels are too thin to be able to handle the use of magic. It is just physically impossible

Is that so.? Thats disappointing

Whilst saying so she had a smile on her face, I guess she didnt really care too much about it.

I guess she herself knows best and accepts them; the things she is good at and the things she just cant do.

Before long, my manipulation of her magical veins ended and I was able to etch the contents of the growth scroll into her body.

With just this, my rate of improvement will be faster? I dont really feel any difference though..?

Is that so? For me I actually felt a huge difference

When I used Scout Scope on Lydia, I was able to confirm that the Growth skill was in her skill sets.

Youve learnt it without problems

I guess its fine then.

Most likely people in the past were not able to sense magical energy very well, so they cant really notice much of a difference.

As for me, the moment I learnt the Growth Scroll, I felt that my magical veins multiplied by several times, even Lydias magical veins have thickened ever so slightly.

Zeph-chi, can you pass me my clothes?

Lydia was covering her breasts with her arm, and the other arm that was free was beckoning me to help her out, so I picked up her clothes which were on the ground, and just when I wanted to pass it over to her.

Zeph? What are you doing?

When I turned around to the direction of the voice, Milly who seemed to have snapped out of a daze spoke to me in an angry tone as her body was trembling.

Achyaa (Tsk)~ Youve woken up in the middle of the good parts havent you Milly-chan? Although its been regrettable, nothing happened between us you know?

Thats exactly right, so Id prefer if you stop with that misleading way of speaking

Lydia was grinning cheekily and I had a frown on my face, Millys face was completely swollen up as she pouted like a baby and she silently smacked me on the back.

At any rate, with this, everyone has been able to learn the Growth Scroll. (Web Novel Image: Lydia with no Clothes)
