Chapter 07 – Magic is for the sake of people

Said goodbye to Master, then I left the tavern and was on my way home.

I was walking along the road through the village. On the right-side was a field surrounded by fences.

I could see the people doing the farming work.

――Every year, monsters always attacked aiming the crops at times like this. Probably the previous Demonic Boar had done so.

For some time, some villagers had the knowledge of swordsmanship.

However, when a strong monster came out, They couldn’t beat it. So now I was taking duty as the guardian in this village.

For now, I was able to fight off all the monsters.

However, it was impossible for me to keep guarding the village all the time, so I was teaching the children swordsmanship in order to train them to be guardians.

Of course, Elsa was among them.

I was in the middle of walking through the village. Suddenly the light of my eyes was robbed from me. The hand extended from behind blocked my eyelid.

“Who is this??”

I heard a sweet voice that contained a smile on my ears.

Of course, I immediately found out who was that. However, it was not fun to answer immediately. It was a good idea to continue this exchange for a while.

“Can you give me a hint?”

“The hint is that the one who loves you so much ?”

“Unn, who?”

“Fufufu. There are a lot of ones who love you. However, this one is the one who has the strongest feeling among them, you know?”

“…..It’s hard to answer if you give me that hint. It’s hard to say the person who thinks they love someone so much that themselves.”

And in addition, the embarrassment as the time flowed was unusual.

It ended in a terrible one-sided love. (ASW: hufft really confusing)

“So that’s it. You’re a shy person. I also like it. Then, I’ll give you more hint.”

The one who was covering my eyes told me as if singing.

“I am one of Papa’s daughters?”

“You said I(boku), didn’t you …”

“Now, Papa. Answer? What is the name of the genius magician who is the youngest of the three sisters who loves papa the most in the world?”

“Isn’t it already the answer! …… Meryl, right?”

“Ping Pong?”

The hand covering my eyes was removed.

Light returned to my sight.

Looking back, my beloved daughter, Meryl, stood while assembling her hands on her back. He smirked with a happy face.

“You look really happy.”

“It was fun to flirt Papa?”

“More than that, what happened to the magic school? It’s supposed to be class time now. Could you be, skip again?”

“Tehee?”

Meryl stuck out her tongue.

“Geez… I got a complaint from the teacher. It seems that Meryl’s behavior is bad. She does not listen to the teacher during the class. She uses only magic that she has not been taught in the exercise. And at the end of the report, She applied for a duel to the teacher and defeated him.”

“Becaaauuuse, the teacher was annoying. If I tell him that I’m stronger, I wonder what he will say.”

Meryl proudly said,

“I was able to beat my teacher, you know. It’s amazing, right. Ehehehe. Papa, praise me a lot.”

“Haaa…..”

I gave a deep sigh.

“I can’t praise Meryl on this matter.”

“Eh? Why?”

“I think it’s amazing that you can beat a teacher. I admit that Meryl is a genius. But magic is not meant to hurt people. Magic is to enrich people’s lives. Its value is to help people.”

It was when I was talking to Merrill.

“Ooh. Isn’t it Kaizer?”

A man who was doing farm work approached me when he noticed me.

It was Norman the farmer.

He wore a hood and dressed in flax clothes.

He tied his ankles with a string and wore thick farmer’s shoes.

“It looks like you’re full of spirit,” I said.

“This year is amazing. It seems like it will be the best harvest ever. After all, it is great that the number of monster’s attack was suppressed.”

Norman turned his eyes toward the field.

“Thanks to Kaizer who has become a guardian, but above all, this magic fence you made is very useful.”

“Magic fence?” Meryl tilted her neck.

“Yeah. There’s lightning magic on this fence. It’s designed so that when a monster aiming at a crop comes into contact with it, it’ll send a high-voltage current. Thanks to that, the crops are not damaged. It is quite exciting to see that damn Demonic Boar run away with its tail wrapped around hind legs.

Norman laughed comfortably when he said so.

“When it can be harvested, I will share to Kaizel’s house. Our vegetables are the most delicious in this village so please look forward to it.”

“Is it okay?”

“Of course. You’ve been taking care of me. It’s a return. In this world, there’s no relationship other than give-and-take relationship, right.”

Norman glanced while thumbing up and then looked at Meryl.

“So, have a taste of our vegetables, and Meryl too, grows big okay.”

Norman walked toward the field, showing his teeth and laughing. Meryl was astounded at the back of him.

When I turned to Meryl, I attempted to bring back our previous conversation.

“Ettoo~. What earlier we were talking about?”

“No. It’s okay. I’ve understood what papa wanted to say. Papa’s magic is really helpful to people ?”

Meryl said to me,

“If I use magic for the sake of people, will papa praise me?”

“Yeah, of course.”

“Ehehe? If so, then me-chan will do my best.”

Meryl put her finger on her cheek and grinned shyly.

At this time, I never thought that this conversation with me would lead her to develop the future world with magic.
