10 Episode 4. Until I turn ten (2)

Except for the mana that comes to the world, there are rare people who deal with other special forces. Spirituality is the rarest of its 'special forces'.

And there are two kinds of beings dealing with the spirit.

An existence born of solderlet, as of Murakhan, and a contract like Jean.

In his heyday, Murakan did not have to back down even if he fought with five nine-star wizards thanks to Young-ki, which is not even a gauge for Jin.

Therefore, Murakan was forced to be an unparalleled teacher to Jin. If Solderlet is not able to communicate with Jin, more and more.

"For those who deal with it, like you and me......it's a skill that starts and ends."

"Start and end?"

"It's a basic example, but it's also a lethal move. The principle is simple. It's almost the same as the wizard opening up the mana."

Wizards will be able to open up their mana when they reach the third star.

In other words, it reached three stars if it could open its mana. The achievements of Jin in his previous life are five stars, so the degree of mana opening is very simple.

However, Murakan only knows that Jin has a "horsepower," and yet he does not know that he has a "five-star level of magic knowledge."

It was because Jin did not reveal that he was a regression. Jean had no intention of letting others know the fact.

"But for wizards, mana opening isn't a killer, is it? As far as I know...….”

"It's only named 'Open', would it be the same class? It's just that the methods are similar.”

"Well."

"So, you must master the opening of the mana before you learn the opening of the spirit."

"Why?"

When Jean asked again, Murakan shrugged.

"You start with the easy ones. I can't even use a wooden sword properly. Should I use a real sword?”

"Aha."

I nodded as if I understood, but I couldn't help it. It's been a long time since I graduated from Mana Open. feel like

'Well, you can do it like you're reviewing it. After the return, we've never opened up the mana.'

Murakan sat Jean on the throne, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Puhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... I never thought I'd teach the child of Looncandel magic. Well, if your father finds out, it'll be hard for you and me to keep our breath.”

Learning magic in Looncandel means becoming a traitor to the family.

Most of the uninhabited families hate magic, but rarely reject it as extreme as Looncandel. Since the death of the first family member, Looncandel has regarded magic as a taboo for the family.

It was simply a taboo derived from the belief that learning magic would not reach the poles of the sword. In fact, maggots often appeared in history, but all of them achieved little achievement and disappeared.

The opposite was true.

The magic family did not reject 'no art,' but was extremely reluctant to use 'or'. The reason was that when Orser mixes, mana becomes chaotic.

But this is not true.

The reason why Runkandel regards magic as a taboo is because of the humiliating oath he made with Jipple a thousand years ago.

Until the time Themeer was alive, Looncandel was originally a 'horse-spirited family'.

At that time, Looncandel was not as famous as he is now, and most of the history was lost and distorted and not known.

All we know now is the Regression and Soldert's Contractors, Jin and Murakan, and some of the key figures in Looncandel and Jipple.

"Already going in and out of this cellar, if you get caught, it'll be over."

"Yes, for your father's personality that you've been hearing about. We're accomplices, so let me tell you a secret before we get started. People in the world have a strong perception that even if 'magam' is rare, it cannot be strong, right?"

"Surely so.

When Jean pretended not to know, Murakan laughed with satisfaction.

"That's all crap! It's a lot worse than Looncandel, made up by the geeks of the Zipple. Although it requires a lot of prior conditions, horse testing is the ultimate. You're originally a blessed family of horsemen."

"Really? I've never heard such a story."

"......don't you think it's amazing?"

asked Murakan in a rather flat voice. Jean came out with a late look of wonder, but Murakhan shook his head.

"Haha, what could be more amazing than meeting you? More than that, what if it's a prerequisite?”

"You're such a loveless little boy. The innate body of mana affinity and sensitivity to come and go. And a contract with God."

"I'm all set."

"If you know, you don't have to be afraid to learn magic in the future. Only, let's promise one thing. Kid. Never expose magic to the family until you're strong enough."

"I know that much even if you don't promise me. You're only eight years old, and you don't want to die.”

"Well, then. Your goal is to be at the apex one day and make this Murakan prosperous. Let's get started. First, let's get the mana up. Well, what it feels like to create mana is...….”

Woo-woong.

When Qin floated a walnut-sized magic sphere on his palm, Murakhan opened his eyes wide.

"Oh, my... real man. What? What if you do it in a second? You haven't even explained it yet!”

The progress was surprising.

I tried to control the level properly, but without realizing it, I created a magic sphere. The eight-year-old body was as difficult to control as it was at twenty-eight.

Especially, these days, magic has rarely been used.

As soon as Jean was contemplating what to say, Murakhan stood up with his fists clenched.

"Yes, Solderet! I see why you chose this guy for a thousand years! Haha, it's a real thing. It's a thing! Kid, will you keep making my heart flutter?"

Mistakes were more profitable.

So, scratching her back head and making an awkward smile, Jin asked,

"Is this that great?”

"Awesome! I've only seen a man floating in the palm of his hand three times in my life! The first is the guest house of the Zipple. The second is the four great houses of the Zipple. And that's you!"

Murakan added that at the age of five and seven, the first and fourth generations of the Jipple had a mana sphere, but it was not very impressive.

It was because he knew himself well.

The fact that he must have been as much a magic genius as they were.

He reached five stars in three years before returning to Korea, and signed a contract with Soldert, so it is possible that he has a better talent than them.

'If I was born in Jipple before my return, I would have made at least eight at the age of 28. Maybe it's nine.'

Murakan wiped out his laughter.

"Little kid. Honestly, I thought it would take years to open up, but maybe we could start before the storm. Let's go straight to the next level!"

The next step is to move the horsepower. The basic training method is to turn off the mana on the palm and move it to the other hand. without a single error

This, too, was as easy as forklift for Jin, but needed to adjust the progress.

It is already giving Murakhan enough expectations, and it is burdensome for Jin to inflate more.

Also, the mistake was beneficial just now, but it was important in itself. It would certainly take proper repetitive training and review to handle mana as skillfully as in previous life.

Qin, as explained by Murakan, moved the mana on the right-hand bottom sharply to the other side.

'Well... ..the first success should be in about 10 minutes.’

Ten minutes later, Murakan smiled as the mana in Jin's right hand moved exactly to his left hand.

Jean's forehead was covered with perspiration. It was more difficult to deliberately slow down an easy act. Just as it's harder to force a heavy object up slowly.

"Good job. Very good. If you can do it in five seconds, you can get into the mana opening. At the same time, it's like being a three-star wizard."

"How long do you think it'll take to get there?”

Jean asked, wiping her sweat.

"Two years."

Then we'll have to adjust it for about a year.

Jean, who finished the calculation, nodded her head.

"Just practice the mana movement more today and go back. Don't train inside the castle just in case I'm not there."

"Okay."

After another hour of training, it was time to go back to the castle. As Jean took her notes and baskets, Murakan lay down and scratched her thighs.

"Oh, and the kid. When you come tomorrow, make sure to bring a basket full of strawberry pie. When it comes to good words."

said Murakan to the back of Jean's departure.

"The strawberry pie was the last one I had earlier. In the last half year, do you know how many strawberries you've eaten?"

"Buck it, then bring me another pie your nanny baked!"

"How about a mouse pie, then?"

"When I said let's see what's worth this chestnut......Uh, hey! Hey!"

Hustle!

Jean galloped through a hole leading to the basement.

"Not the mouse, but the other one! Please!"

What Jean presented to Murakhan the next day was a basketful of apple pie.

Murakan was very pleased and stroked Jean's head.

A year later, the morning of September 9, 1789, dawned, and today is Jin's ninth birthday.

Spending a birthday in a stormy four seasons is no good for children's emotions.

The rain and wind were pounding the stormy windows while five of the servants, Gilly and Guardian knights, gathered and put candles on the cake.

"Happy birthday, Master Chin."

"Congratulations!"

"Thank you all.”

Huuu

When the candles on the cake went out, the crowd applauded.

Bam bam bam bam. The knights' gunt made a strong metal frictional sound instead of mismatches. The birthday party of any commoner family would not be as bleak as it is.

Still, it was quite a graceful and luxurious landscape for Jin. In my previous life, I didn't even get this birthday celebration when I was nine.

While Gilly cut a piece of cake and handed it out to everyone, the guardian, who was guarding the entrance of the storm, rushed to the hallway.

"Lord Jean!"

It was the guardian knight Khan.

"Kahn?"

Inside the castle, Khan doesn't run much in the hallway.

Jean had a hunch that someone from the family had come to the storm.

"The first lady has come!"

"My sister Luna...…?”

Jean jumped to her feet and answered.

Jin's first sister, Luna Looncandel.

The first of her 13 children, she is well known as the strongest of Looncandel's children. Now that he is only 28 years old, he has become a nine-star knight, it was an accurate assessment.

Nevertheless, she never participates in the ugly fight of Looncandel's succession to the throne, and always moves alone.

'I'm not the kind of person who would come to wish him a happy birthday. What's going on?…?’

Jean clasped close to the window and looked outside. Luna was seen climbing the stormy stairs with her giant axe sword, "Crantel," on her back.
