I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

[The current magic power can support flight time: 37 hours]

[Current flight mode: aerobatics]

Isabella raised her hand and asked: "Teacher Gresta... There seems to be no operation method on this, but it shows a mode called [Aerobatics]..."

"Ah, um, generally only flying boots have that function. The aerobatic flight mode does not require silent incantation. To describe it roughly, you can fly however you want... Because in this way, you can rely on experience and skills for the most flexible control. Flying."

"You can fly however you want?" Isabella looked at the translucent cyan wings fluttering slightly under her feet and pursed her lips.

Gresta continued: "By the way, if you are a novice like you -"

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by the sudden sound of high-speed airflow. Isabella's figure shot high into the sky without warning. The flickering ring caused by the accelerated magic burst was slowly dissipating from the place where she took off.

"...You have to switch to flight mode." Gresta stared at the figure bumping around in the air, and finally added this.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Isabella's terrified screams echoed in the test field.

"You should have told me this kind of thing from the beginning...!"

Chapter 44 The instinct of longing for the sky

After bumping into the field's protective shield several times, she finally lost her balance and landed on her back. If the protective gravity array hadn't pulled Isabella, she probably would have needed Gresta's healing spell to get up from the ground. .

"Hiss...it hurts...it hurts..."

Isabella, who got up from the ground while rubbing her butt, finally understood why she had to exercise well before learning to fly.

If you don't strengthen your body bones, you might be knocked to pieces in a few days.

"So for newbies, don't be too anxious to fly into the sky." Gresta came to Isabella with a gloating smile on her lips.

This woman definitely did it on purpose...

Her cheeks were burning under Isabella's resentful gaze, and Gresta quickly told her how to change the flight mode in a haha.

"Just say [Switch] silently in your mind. Normal flight mode has a guidance module, which makes it easier to get on the ground than super flight."

Lift and move, but the flexibility is not that high~"

[Switch——]

[Current flight mode: normal flight]

The translucent light wings behind the heel flap and change color to white, and you can feel the slight force under your feet lifting you up.

"It really seems to feel a little different." Although Isabella's feet were still on the ground at this moment, her body always felt light and airy, as if she could fly with just a tap of her toes.

But the feeling of being thrown against the wall and being slapped around just now was not good, and her back and butt still ached... which made her a little uneasy.

"Is it okay... to fly?" Isabella had a long memory and chose to confirm with Gresta beside her first.

"Yes, when flying with flying boots, you have to remember one thing, and that is trust."

"Believe? Believe in what?"

"Believe it, when it's on your feet, you two become one." Gresta pointed to the white flying boots that were flapping gently under the girl's feet, "Jump up, lean forward, and follow your instincts. move."

"But flying is not part of human instinct... Teacher Gresta."

"Don't worry about those details!" Gresta waved her hand and said passionately: "Human beings have had the desire to soar in the sky since the beginning of their birth. Entrust that heartfelt desire to the flying boots under your feet. Well, it will answer your call!"

Isabella was slightly startled. She noticed that when Gresta said those words just now, her eyes seemed to be shining with light.

"The desire to fly..."

"That's right."

Amidst the slightly sharp buzzing sound, the ring-shaped airflow was repulsed by the flapping of the wings under Isabella's feet, injecting magic power into the flying boots under her feet. Isabella stared at the arc roof in the center of the test field. The highest point.

Want to...touch there.

"Now—jump!"

Legs slightly curled up to gather strength, Isabella stared firmly at the distant sky - a place she had never touched alone.

【Please let me fly! 】

Shout loudly in your heart and utter powerful syllables in your mouth at the same time.

"Haaah!"

Unconsciously, more magic was injected into the flying boots. The light wings, which were originally only the size of a palm, flapped violently, and the size increased several times. Ring-shaped winds rolled up at and around Isabella's feet, and even sent out air currents several times. The shriek of being torn apart.

Gresta looked at Isabella, who was so powerful at this moment, and couldn't help but cover her mouth.

Ah, it seems to have aroused her emotions all of a sudden, but be careful, if you use too much force, it will be bad if the car cannot stop~

Before Gresta could even say the words she wanted to remind her, the figure of the girl in front of her suddenly turned into a golden stream of light and rushed into the sky.

So fast!

It seemed that there was a barrier that could repel wind resistance. Isabella could only feel the slightly stronger wind blowing her hair behind her ears, but it did not bring her any sense of obstruction. The scene in front of her was stretched out of shape and flew backwards. The highest point of the test flight ground pointed at was approaching at high speed in his direction.

But the speed of approach seemed to be much faster than she imagined. When Isabella came back from the excitement of successful takeoff, she realized that the roof of the test flight ground was already close at hand.

We're about to hit him!

The all-out sprint was too fast. Now Isabella's whole body was pushed forward by the flying boots under her feet. She could no longer turn by fine-tuning her center of gravity, and braking was...

etc! I don't seem to know how to brake at all - screwed!

Gresta covered her forehead with her hands and stared at the figure rushing towards the ceiling. She thought silently in her heart: "We are going to hit him again. This time it will probably hurt more than before..."

Originally, I wanted her to float up first and then teach her how to control it, but in the end, she rushed out as soon as she came up... This child's heart seemed to be completely different from her soft appearance.

Surprisingly...hot-blooded~

Gresta drew out her wand and was ready to cast a spell at any time to catch Isabella who might be knocked unconscious and fall.

But what happened next made her slightly widen her eyes and let out a sound of surprise.

"Oh~?"

I saw the flying boots under the girl's feet rushing straight towards the circular zenith suddenly erupting with light. The huge white wings of light shook violently, transforming into dazzling cyan, and exploding large flashes of light around.

Although the normal flight mode of the white light wing is easy to control the direction, it has insufficient adaptability in emergency situations, not to mention that it does not know how to brake and land.

If this mode is too late to reverse direction——

【Switch! 】

[Current flight mode: aerobatics]

Then that’s all!

Rather than saying it silently, Isabella was already yelling in her heart.

"Turn around here!"

The thrust under his feet suddenly changed direction, as if he was being pulled upside down, and his toes swung 180 degrees and suddenly stepped on the blue magic circle emerging from the soles of his feet.

In an instant, while sprinting through the air, Isabella performed a thrilling backflip with imperfect posture.

Now there is the roof under her feet, and the direction she is looking at is the ground. Isabella can still clearly see Gresta smiling and waving to her.

.

"Oh~ It's so beautiful. That move just now could have scored seven points!"

However, this barely successful emergency U-turn does not mean that Isabella stopped in flight...

The huge forward inertia was changed by the forced reversal of direction. As Isabella whined briefly, the flying boots under her feet suddenly pulled her to glide at high speed along the edge of the arc-shaped test field.

But judging from the direction and posture, you should be able to return to the starting point by turning a few times on the wall.

"——Ahhh, Gresta——Teacher...!"

Isabella, whose whole body was stiff, was dragged by the flying boots for the first time past Gresta. The girl's screams came from far away and then became far away again.

"What did you say——?!" Gresta raised her hand to her mouth as a loudspeaker and shouted to the girl who was leaving.

But she had already flown far away and needed to make another full circle before she could come back...

"——How can I——"

"....ah?"

"——Stop?!——"

It wasn't until the third circle of girls quickly passing by Gresta that she heard all of Isabella's questions.

Why stop? This is simple!

Afterwards, whenever the girl passed by her, Gresta shouted one word to her.

"Only, need, need, together, close, feet, point~"

After spending a few more laps to confirm that Gresta would not add anything more, Isabella chose to do so.

The toes gently moved inward, and the cyan wings behind the boots spread out to both sides, and then the speed suddenly slowed down.

Isabella, who was about to faint in the test flight field, finally staggered to the ground, and then was pushed by the inertia for a few steps before falling to the ground with a thud.

"Woo!"

"hiss--"

Gresta took a deep breath. This fall... her chest wouldn't be flat.

The twenty-five minutes of test flight time also ended. After Isabella turned over with difficulty from the ground and onto her back, the glowing wings behind the heels also flickered and dissipated, turning into a pair of ordinary short boots.

Chapter 45 Arena Battle

Gresta's smiling face appeared in his field of vision.

"Want to try another one?"

"good...."

After holding the hand that Gresta extended to her and standing up, Isabella tried several other flying media in other styles.

It includes a disk type like Mr. Gray who stopped him before, a wing type that can be worn on the back, and a belt + control stick type that has a simpler operation method.

After a few laps, the flying experience of different media models has its own characteristics.

The disc type is the fastest, but has poor braking performance. The wing type is more flexible in terms of steering and height rise, but has a lower speed.

As for the belt-plus-control-stick model, it actually feels almost like using a joystick to play games. If it weren’t for the magic power needed to drive it, Isabella wouldn’t even feel that it’s a magic thing. All aspects of its attributes are balanced, and it’s most suitable for beginners. scholar.

"By the way, I prefer the model with a control lever."

"...No, it's too ugly!"

"Then the wing type?"

"…looks like an angel."

"Ah, does it remind you of something bad?"

Isabella pursed her lips tightly and no longer paid attention to the white wings that were put back in the display cabinet, but finally focused on the pair of white flying boots.

Of course Gresta saw this, and she was not surprised by it.

"No problem. After all, life always needs some challenges. Let's try to pass the intermediate flying qualification certificate within a week."

"Well, I'll try my best!"

In the end, the two walked out of Adegok with empty hands.

Isabella is still unsatisfied with her previous flying experience.

At that moment...even if it was just that moment, it felt like I was one with the flying boots under my feet.

She made a stunt that was impossible for a novice in Gresta's eyes, which made her look surprised. The sense of accomplishment was incomparable, her heart was beating fast, but she felt unexpectedly happy.

"Teacher Gresta..."

"Um?"

"Please train me in my flying skills!"

Gresta smiled mysteriously and said: "You don't need to tell me, the next arrangement will be like this. After all, a witch who can't fly is not a qualified witch."
