2977 - - 79-04 Origin of Aira

"Well, this is my magic pattern."

"So this is how it works. It's very different from Jin-dono's, isn't it?

What do you mean by that?

<

"It is thought that the magical properties would be earth, water, fire, wind, lightning, light, and darkness ......, starting from the lowest frequency."

"I see. Jin-dono is high overall."

"I think that's one of the characteristics of a Magecraft Meister."

I see.

"Perhaps that's why those who use engineering magic are so flat."

"Yes, that's right."

Eira and Gromma's magic patterns were flatter than those of Aleo Yoka Knights, Cain Gay, and Lazaro De Rossi.

However .

(......) the high-frequency bandwidth is wide. Perhaps this is one of the characteristics of the .)

Of course, it is not only a wide bandwidth. Of course, it is not only a wide bandwidth.

"Here, here, and here. These three peaks are characteristic."

"Well, it looks that way."

Jin D pointed to the three peaks in the high frequency range of Eira's magic pattern diagram.

(Probably the peaks for the use of magic peculiar to the northern tribes.)

It seemed to be a characteristic of brainwashing slavery magic or gravity magic.

It was because I had a chance to see the magical power pattern of the created by Golbert Malkitas, a former adversary of mine, and it had these characteristics as well.

I could not be absolutely sure, since it was only one sample.

(Maybe next time I will have Zion, Marikka, and Rhodes take measurements.)

In fact, I had not measured the magic patterns of any of my acquaintances in particular before.

(It would be better to measure the magic patterns of the whole <>, since it might be useful for something.)

Not exactly a doctor's chart, but it would not be a bad idea to prepare a chart of <> and his acquaintances with the help of Erza, Jin thought as he was piloting Jin D. "So, what did you find out?

"So, what did you find out?"

Eira called out to Jin D, who seemed to be deep in thought.

"Yeah. I thought there was a good chance that Eira was the target, given the ...... situation, but I thought it might be because of this distinctive waveform."

"Yeah?　Is that why you were targeted?"

Jin D asks a disgruntled Eira.

"Eira, you seem to be hiding your origin, is there a reason for that?

"What?　No, nothing. I just don't think it's something I should tell anyone.

Then why don't you tell us?

I don't mind, but it's ...... not that interesting, is it?

I won't complain if Eira tells me. Hey, Groma?

"Yes, yes, Mister Gin. ...... Eira, I've been wondering about you too."

"...... you're a curious one, aren't you?"

Eira began to tell her story in a casual manner.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"Actually, I was a foundling.

What?

"What?" "......"

......

A heavy story suddenly begins.

"So I don't know anything about my parents or anything before that. That's all."

"......"

"...... No, you have a story about the person who picked you up, don't you?"

"Well, ...... I was picked up in an orphanage, left when I was 18, and wandered around the continent ......"

Wait a minute.

"Wait a minute." "What?"

Gloma Trey interrupted Eira's narrative.

"Where was this orphanage?　Where was this continent you wandered?"

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry, I left that part out. It's ......, south of Mitsho.

South of Mitzvah?

Yeah.

How did you learn to do magic in ......?

Mitsuho is a country where there are basically no mages.

Jin, who was piloting Jin D, thought that Eira's skill at the time they met would have required a lot of practice for her to be able to do so.

"The director of the orphanage is from the Shoro Kingdom. He taught us the basics and magic to those who had the ability.

He was a good teacher.

Jin D. sends his heartfelt compliments through Jin D.

And then,

"What town is this orphanage in and what is its name?　Oh, and what is the teacher's name?"

I had to ask him now, so I interrupted him.

"What?　Oh, it's Sand Orphanage, and the teacher's name is Chisin Sand. The town is Nantes."

"...... there."

Nantes is located in the south of Mituho, near a lake, and it is a very prosperous town.

Jin imagined that the large population would make it easy to run the orphanage.

I'm sorry to interrupt you. Please continue.

"Yes. But I don't have much to say to you anymore.

Eira then continued.

"When I turned eighteen, I applied for a position in the that was open and went to the Principality of Jagus, but I didn't do much and was sent to the Principality of Mercana.

He was so annoyed that he studied a lot there and got a lab, and that's when he met Jin .......

* * * *

Eira's story ended.

"I see."

"......I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you talk about something you didn't want to talk about."

Gromma apologized, but Eira was unconcerned,

"No, I didn't want to talk about it because it was too much trouble. There's nothing to apologize for.

She dismisses it as "nothing to apologize for.

However, Jin D's eyes did not miss the slight tinge of vermilion in her profile.

* * * *

"I guess."

In Horai Island, the old man and Jin were discussing a little regretfully.

<

"Yes, please. I'll use Jin D to measure the magical power patterns of the royal family of Selroa. ...... Oh, and take your time and find out about the orphanage where Eira grew up."

.

And then we will each do our part.
