The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

Seruberie was standing in the ruined church, in a corner of the graveyard.

The King of the Dead resurrects every week, and even though I dont know the exact moment in which it resurrects, I approach Seruberie. I was not quite sure whether or not I could met Seruberie today, but I was lucky this time.

We meet again

Preparing an ambush, I cannot say its a hobby that I admire

Even though Im being criticized by my ambush, she doesnt look angry to that extent

Sorry. There was something I wanted to tell you no matter what

Something you want to tell me?

Yesterday, after you saved us, Milly and I, we met with dispatched mages from the magician society and it seems they were looking very hard for you, Seruberie

Oh its about that?

As if it was something troublesome, Seruberie fiddles with her hair. Well, in this ruins there is only one layer, so she is probably aware that she is being chased? She takes out a clock from her coat, checks the time and then she turns around facing me.

Im sorry but the King of the Dead will resurrect shortly. Can we talk a bit later?

Aah, since I am also here, I will help you. Seruberie

Just then, the King of the Dead resurrected in front of us, but we were able to repulse it with ease. After Seruberie fires her magic, her magic power is consumed, so I take care of buying enough time for her to recover.

This was repeated three times until the King of the Dead was completely worn-out and had collapsed. Even though it was a low rank boss, there is a limit to killing it with one blow. As I thought, Seruberies power is terrific. After she put the drop item into her bag and the snake bone ring into her pocket, she turns around facing towards me.

Im sorry, you even had to help me

It doesnt matter, even if I dont help you I am sure that you can defeat it alone

It was the truth, I only helped her to gain a bit of time.

Then, do you mind if continue our conversation?

Yeah, I suppose so

Seruberie sighs like it was bothersome, it is quite evident that this is not a topic she wants to talk about.

Did you do something to the magician society to make them pursue you?

I didnt do anything to make them pursue me to this extent

If it was not something so important, then they wouldnt send dispatched mages

It seems that this is a topic she doesnt want to talk about, but I cant let it pass. Against the persistent me, she answer as if she had surrendered.

I only borrowed a scroll that was in the society and thats all

I cant close up my mouth. No matter how you think about it, its really serious.

So, have you returned it?

Not yet

isnt that clearly a robbery?

That reminds me, back in the days when I was travelling together with Seruberie, she always grabbed my stuff and used them as she pleased, but I didnt think it was possible for her to do the same thing against others and especially against the society.However, this unique magic that was written on a scroll by the society must be fully guarded, youve done a great job in stealing it. Seruberie is the type of person that can do something like that, but as always, she is extremely reckless.

..Why didnt you return it?

When I was about to do that, they started to chase after me so I ended up running. The pursuers attacked me without asking questions or answering me, so I dont know if this is a good time to go there again and return it

So you mean that you ended running all this time until today. I noticed that you had difficulties in associating with other people but for them to be to this extent.

You know, the more time it passes the more difficult it will be to return it!

I tried to return it secretly at night, but the security became strict so in the end I couldnt return it

This person is hopeless If I dont do something quickly then She turns away her eyes from me, and standing there like it was really troublesome she seemed as if she were a child being scolded.

I understood. I will be the one who returns it so can you give me the scroll to me?

That will be a big help Muu, you are saying that, but arent you secretly planning to learn the scroll in this way?

Good grief! This has become so troublesome because you are so perceptive at bad times. Grinning and laughing, I turn around facing Seruberie and I reply her,

I leave it to your imagination. Seruberie

It seems that I cant let down my guard against you, even a bit

Fufufu, both of us had a wicked smile on our faces.

Well, I dont have any problem with that, but Zeph, if the magicians society find out that you have been in contact with me, its possible that you will be marked down by them

Ill do it in a way in which they wouldnt find out. I have already thought of a plan

I know where teacher Clares house is. If she is the sister of Azalea, then, If I say I picked it up from the ground, I only have to pass it to teacher Clare and somehow I will be able to deceive her,

But anyways, its better if you apologize. It will be better for your image even if is not certain they will ever forgive you

When you look at Azalea, she doesnt seem like an unsociable dispatched mage with which you cant talk to.

Im not sure, so if its possible can you tell them in my steadZeph?

Even if I am the one to tell them something, it will not have the full sincerity At least write an apology letter yourself

If its only that

Seruberie unwillingly uses the collapsed gravestone as a desk to write the letter of apology. I peek to see if she is truly writing, but then she uses her hand to block my view. Are you a child?

I think the moment when we first met she was a bit more honest And even at that time she was already avoiding relationships with people Leaving aside the disappointment, this Seruberie that is like a child is kind of refreshing.

For a short moment I continue to protect Seruberie while she is writing the letter, and then when she finishes writing, she sealed the letter and gives it to me together with the scroll.

Fuu

Good work

After letting out a sigh, Seruberie puts the pen in her coat. I received the letter and the scroll that she passed to me with her hand, and then when I look to the contents, I saw on the bottom the name of the magic that Seruberie is using Chronos.

That scroll is a unique magic that only by just possessing it, the growth is specially fast. When I got that for several years, my growth accelerated with great speed

Lets not reply her about the fact that she stole it for several years. Because in that aspect Ihave a similar way of thinking as her, birds of a feather flock together.

Thats right, Seruberie. Why dont you join our guild? Im sure our companions will accept you

This body is being chased by the society. Its likely I will trouble you, its better to stop here

Are you embarrassed?

The moment I said that, Seruberie looks away, looking at the opposite direction. Uu I have made her angry? Because when Seruberie is angry, she stops talking.

Um Seruberie?

When I get close and I call her, she displays some action like she was playing with something with her hand. Immediately after, with a *bump* my head was hit by something.

Its not possible for me to enter in your guild, but I will pass this to you. If something happens, then you may call me

Then after saying that, Seruberie used teleportation and went away.

Go away but do that after hearing my answer, good grief Whats more, I dont know where she went in this darkness. A red ball floats on the tip of my finger, illuminating the place. When I see the ground, something was reflected by my light.

Isnt this.the fragment of a crystal ring?

This is made at the time when a guild is created, and it is possible to talk telepathically but only with the other people who have parts of the fragment. Nevertheless, there is a restriction.

With this even if I am holding a part of the fragment I cant communicate with you, you know?

With this crystal ring, the holders of the fragments cant begin the conversation, they can only receive it. That Seruberie, she doesnt seem to have ever used it before

This is why you are always alone

Letting out a sigh, I swore to myself that the next time I met Seruberie I will teach her how to use this.
