Magic and skills[1]

"then, please Follow me." Roxy said, and started to move. And just as Roxy said, Miko and Hiru followed her.

'Sora.'

'Yes, Shizue-sama.'

'When you use magic, do you need a circle?'

'Yes, we do. If a person can cast magic without a circle, it means that he/she is a disobedient person to God.'

'I see. ...I have to find a way to hide the fact that I can do magic without a circle.'

'Using illusionary magic is the only thing we can do to hide it.'

'I had already thought about doing so, but then I remembered that I can't cast illusion magic, and if I can cast illusion magic, I don't know what the circles look like when I use different magic.'

'The library is the main source of information.Why don't we just ask someone for permission to use the library?'

'I have thought about that, but there's a problem. I have to talk to the person I hate the most.'

'I see...'

While Shizue and Sora were talking, Shizue noticed Yuri staring at her.

"What's wrong, Yuri?"Shizue said as she approached Yuri.

"No, it's nothing."

"Say what you want to say. You might regret it later."Shizue said after coming near yuri.

"It's just...You've been standing there for more than five minutes."

"I was just thinking. It's no big deal."

"Oh...If that's the case..."

"Now, Now. I've got some errands to run..."

"Are you going somewhere again?"

"No, just to talk to the Grand Master."

"Well, Take care..."

"Oh, thank you for saying that."

"It's nothing...."

Later, when Shizue went to the Grand Master's office, she had only one thing on her mind."I will ask for permission before he starts yapping."

When Shizue arrived at the Grand Master's office, the Grand Master was sitting in his chair drinking coffee.

"I was waiting for you. Otherwise, I would have gone to bed already."

"Do Grandmaster have a job?"

"Well,this month was supposed to be my vacation But I came to Lynn for work. But really I miss--"

"Yes, yes."Shizue said as the Grand Master tried to tell her a coffee-related story. When Shizue went near the Grand Master, she said," I like coffee, but I don't like it when you yapping about coffee for more than an hour."

"Haha,Now,Now. Let's not waste time joking about it."

"You were the one who brought it up in the first place."

"Let's forget about it...What do you need? If it's possible, I'll give it to you."

"I'd like to borrow the library."

"Oh, the library. No one uses it, so I'll lend you thelibrary."

"Permanently?"

"Of course."

"Ok,then."

"Your room is on the right side of the library, but don't lock yourself in the library."

"Don't worry, I won't do that."

And on the other side, Roxy was trying to explain to Hiru and Miko about status, skills, and magic.

"There is status, skill, and magic in this world. When I say 'status open' the status opens and you can see the magic level, magic, skills, and many other things.Hiru-san, go ahead."

"Status Open."

HP: 569

Mp: 600

Title: None

Agility: 15

Physical Strength: 25

Magic Level: 3

Magic: None

"Hiru-san....You have some rare skills but you don't have any magic. But people don't use magic that much these days, so I think you'll be fine. So, you should focus on....MP, strength, agility, and accuracy. MP is for using skills for a long time, and physical strength is for using the sword effectively. Accuracy is for the sword to hit the target, and agility is for dodging attacks. You can choose your battle type. Support or rusher." Roxy said as she came near Hiru and looked at Hiru's status. But hiru has a really rare skill. Many people would be jealous of that.

"Now it's my turn. Status open!"

[Status open]

Name: Suzune Miko

HP 650

"Miko-san also has some rare skills. No magic, though. So, what you should focus on.... MP, strength, and accuracy. same reason as Hiru-san, but you don't need to focus on agility." Roxy came close to Miko, looked at her status, and said.

"As you say..." Miko said while being a little dejected. In most things other than skills, miko is better than Hiru.

Then, While Shizue was reading a book of knowledge in the library, Sora suddenly came and kneeled down.

"'Shizue-sama."

"Are you done?"

"Yes, it's six o'clock in the morning." Sora was actually keeping an eye on Hiru, Miko, and Roxy, but no one noticed.

"Well done."

"Thank you." Sora said and disappeared. Later,as shizue was reading a book she came across a page labeled "Status. It's a system that displayed all information about a person. Of course, there are skills that allow you to see the status of other people."

After reading it, she though, "Status, huh...I might try it,"

But when she opened her own status, she saw something unexpected.

Shizue looked at it and thought,"...Can't answer? Does that mean it's unmeasurable? But then my race can't be measured either?"

She was confused,but after a while Before leaving the library, she picked up some books. A book on illusions, a book on history, a book on magic and skills.
