085. hint.

At first glance, it seems like he knows or he doesn’t, so when I asked him, Stein said.

“Would you like to use the non-spirit skill you used before?”

I don’t know why, but Xian, who was preparing for the demonstration, hesitated.

Come to think of it, it was because it was impossible with the gaiters on.

It would be difficult to walk right now.

“You can take it off once.”

At Stain’s words, Xian was delighted and took off his leggings.

It looks like it will fly like this just by taking it off.

“do?”

“yes.”

After using the non-shot, Stain glanced at the number of illusions and said.

“Isn’t your skill level currently 4 of these illusions?”

“yes?”

Even if you twist and mess around, it won’t grow any more.

As Xian tilted his head, Stain said.

“Then let’s say the young master used 10 mana when using non-spirit.”

“huh.”

“Then what if I use only 9 mana and use non-spirit?”

“well… Are you going to fail?”

“hmm… It may be, but not usually.”

“Then what will happen?”

“It will get sloppy.”

Skill is the harmony of mana and body.

However, if there is a gap in the mana that supports the remaining half, excluding the part in charge of the body, of course it will be more sloppy than before…

“For example, in the case of non-heritage, it will appear that the number of illusions changes to 3 or the speed slows down.”

“I understand.”

As Sian nodded, Stain said.

“But what if you use only 9 mana continuously and use non-spiritual attacks in succession?”

“ah! Are you adapting?”

Stein nodded.

“That’s right. The body adapts to fill the part that mana used to fill. And then growing the degenerated muscles is the method used by Alteon, and others in general.”

There was such a training method overflowing with intelligence!

Moreover, it was the best because it meant that I didn’t even need any equipment.

“Then you can’t do this.”

When Xian pointed to the leggings and said that, Stain said.

“No, it’s a must-have training for you, Bocchan.”

When I asked why, it was none other than his own talent.

“I should say that there is no fundamental way to take anything and copy it, but what should I say… .”

Even if you say…

But while he was angry, he wasn’t wrong.

Certainly, Xian’s fighting style is diverse. Free-spirited, not confined to a frame. And what made that possible was none other than reckless imitation.

That was definitely an advantage and a strength, but from a slightly different perspective, there was no room for excuses for criticizing that it was fundamentally inaccurate.

At the same time, Stein mentioned the tendency of technology.

“For example, if you are an unmanned person who focuses on speed, you only need to focus on building the muscles needed for speed.”

The degenerated muscles that are needed to produce stronger power can be worked on slowly and relatively later.

Because the demand is small.

However, speed is essential for those who can go fast. Because it is a key element that is the basis for one’s skills and battles.

“But am I saying that diversity requires growth in many ways?”

Because I took and used this and that, it was necessary to activate all the degenerated muscles in order to extract the highest efficiency.

He said that so-called multi-faceted hexagonal growth is needed.

“Maybe that’s why Drake-sama chose gaiters training.”

“Hmm… .”

Was it all meaningful?

Xian has no time.

If I had time, I could train slowly using the former method, but since I didn’t have time, I had to train with the gaiter even if it was accompanied by pain.

“Then, how do you do this training for each class?”

I understood why I had to train for gaiter classes because I heard it a while ago.

But apart from that, as I said at the beginning, what Xian was asking for was a hint.

A direction that will help the progress of training.

It’s not like you’re just walking around like you are now…

“Are you using mana right now, Bocchan?”

“no?”

Stein was very surprised.

“No, why are you crazy? Rather, how did you carry it?”

omg…

There was an obvious reason that it was because he was a Dragonian, but it was a secret he could never tell Stein.

If you’re a guy, you can stick a knife in his back.

“that… I actually use it, but I tried to brag a little bit.”

“Yes… Sure?”

He seemed to agree with Xian’s excuses right away, but Stain still had a vague look.

Xian hurriedly changed the topic.

“Anyway, being crazy is a bit harsh.”

“Ah, that’s a bit of a misnomer.”

Stain somehow forgot the little commotion of the moment and started over.

“Anyway, as long as you hold it with mana, that’s fine. It’s simple from there.”

“No, but if you use mana, doesn’t it have no effect?”

First of all, it is training to train the body.

Of course, Xian also used mana at first, but he uses mana for training?

I thought something was not right.

To use mana in training to train the body.

So, in the end, I decided not to use mana.

I thought the effect might be slow, so I heard it as a joke.

When Sian pointed out the same thing, Stain replied.

“Not at all. The principle is the same as described at the beginning. All you have to do is to slowly relieve yourself of what you were dealing with with the power of mana.”

Just by doing so, the weight of the body will gradually increase and the muscles will grow.

My head went blank for an instant.

“Wow, are you a genius?”

I see…

To grow muscles is to fill in the missing parts with the body while relieving mana.

However, the difference was only in the form of natural growth and artificial growth, and there was no difference in purpose and training method.

Thinking about it, I praised Grid for being smart, but maybe I’m not that smart…

‘Indignant… .’

Sian thanked Stein for the hint anyway.

This time, if it wasn’t for Stein’s help, I wouldn’t have caught on.

“thanks.”

* * *

“Whoops… Congratulations Stein… You have now created another monster… .”

Indeed, after receiving Stein’s advice, Xian quickly adapted.

By noon, the footprints had disappeared, and by evening, I had reached a point where I could run at some speed.

“Admit it, you are the only one who made me who I am today.”

When I recited a page from a line in my delusion that I had dreamed of becoming a Slayer a long time ago, the guy said with an uninspired face.

“I hope you knew.”

“Hmm… .”

Somewhere the response is flat…

It was not the usual taste of Stein.

Sian stared at Stain.

An unpredictable attitude.

thick talk.

It definitely felt similar, but it was a little different than usual.

‘You’re strangely kinder than usual… .’

Neither anyone else nor Xian could have known that.

“But I have a question.”

“What is it?”

Yesterday and today, I thought about it a bit, but I didn’t know the reason, so I asked straight-forward.

“Yesterday and today, why are you so cooperative?”

Stein was taken aback.

“… It’s because of my mood.”

“Ah, that’s not it. Do I not know you?”

Stein stares silently.

And then I say…

“Do you know me well?”

“what… But, since I’ve seen you for over half a year?”

It’s already been that much since I left Alteon.

If the time in Alteon is added together, it is much longer than that.

Thinking about it again, it seemed like it would be good to know it well.

While Xian was thinking that way, Stain said.

“I don’t know you well, Bocchan.”

“huh?”

Silence passed for an instant.

Stein opened his mouth.

“Why did you do that?”

“uh?”

When I asked what he meant, he came back with a more specific question.

“What did you do if you ran away?”

“Run away? who?”

However, I still don’t know what you mean.

“… … .”

Stain broke the momentary silence that came again and spoke.

“Yorba.”

why did you give me money?

* * *

400 gold is a huge sum of money.

Strictly speaking, the Highgreve family of Stein, a noble belonging to Alteon, was also the same.

If you simply pick up hundreds of gold and go around, it’s clear that the addition will go away quickly.

If you are a commoner, it is common for you to work your whole life and die without even touching 10 gold.

However, Xi’an simply made the right choice for a whopping 40 times that amount.

The horse was a request, but Stain was not blind to the extent that he did not know that it was an enemy ship.

‘Confusing.’

That’s why Stein’s head was complicated.

Xian, whom he had seen so far, was, if I had to put it mildly, a good man.

He was a model of nobles who despised the wicked, cared for the weak, and did not turn a blind eye to those in trouble.

So, it is true that Stain’s perception of Xian as an immature child has changed a lot in the past six months.

‘That’s why I’m more confused.’

what kind of person he is

The incident that made Stein’s head complicated was none other than the recent one.

It was something that ruined Xian’s good impression for a moment.

It was to surprise and injure Yorba and deliberately embezzle blind money from the arena.

Stein was deeply disappointed in Xian because of this.

It was surprising that I was evaluating him better than I thought, as it is a feeling of disappointment when I expect it, but anyway, my head was more confused.

‘Is he no different from the other successors of Alteon?’

Of course I know it in my head.

At least you should know how to sacrifice a cow for the sake of a great cause.

However, it was true that it was as bitter as expected.

No, to be honest, people who were embezzled money in the arena could do that.

However, what is bittersweet is why it had to be Yorba.

Knowing that he is a broken man for the sake of righteousness, that may be why he does not leave his head any more.

Now that I’ve seen how it ended, I’m looking forward to it again.

how he will answer

“Why did you give me money?”

“yes.”

In the future, if you put righteousness in front of the cause of Alteon, you will be the one who will be kicked out without mercy.

Hearing his question, the boy’s eyes blink.

The young, small lips were immediately separated.

“Because it was Yorba.”

“Was it also because of the odds?”

I know that the match between Yorba and Basto that day was the match with the highest odds gap.

The hope that had risen again was pushed away by the ebb tide.

I was hoping for a slightly different answer…

In his own words, the young master said as if that was not the case.

“It’s not like that.”

“… to?”

“I really don’t know,” he said with a look like a nerd.

“It’s cool. An unbreakable belief.”

Then, as I smiled, my heart skipped a beat.

It seems like I can see the image of a boy who will grow up in a few years.

I’m curious. His future as a young man.

“I think it’s cool too. Yorba.”

for a moment, but

Although it was very brief.

Stain could understand what Grid said last night when he saw him and said he was special.
