Reincarnation Band Magician

Once the mind is unbalanced, equal concern will be understood as condescending pity. The warmth of interpersonal relationships in the past will become as hot as a flame. The painful contrast between ideals and reality will torture the body and mind all the time.

Like a sensitive hedgehog, it will hide its soft spots and erect its sharp spines if slightly stimulated.

Self-esteem is like an umbrella. While it protects you from wind and rain, it also blocks the concern of people around you, and you end up in a dead end.

Although they are pitiful, Nagasaki Kiyoshi found the few people he had met before quite annoying. After all, if they were not relatives or friends, no one would like someone who is always angry for no reason.

Fortunately, my teammates are not that extreme, and they have maintained good manners since we met.

All of Xiangzi's friends and relatives were away, so he was the only one who had a reason to communicate with Xiangzi.

These days, they would communicate for a while before going to bed.

Whether it's business, small talk or expressing concerns, people always need someone to communicate with.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi lay quietly, controlling the card to float over.

How do you feel?

Miss Toyokawa's card fell, and the speed of piecing together the sentences slowed down a lot.

【It’s not particularly difficult, at least for now. 】

Xiangzi learns very quickly. If he continues like this, he will probably be able to master it in less than a year.

I think so.

[Then, what will happen to Ms. Aite then? ]

Nagasaki Kiyoshi was thinking about this question when he saw her.

Shoko Toyokawa was silent.

【Xiangzi, you learn too fast.】

This is necessary for survival.

If it's just about survival, there's no need to be so anxious.

After a moment of silence.

The hedgehog raised its spines.

[Qing, can you bear to stay here and have people watching you even when you sleep? I don't want to. I absolutely don't want to live like a pet!]

The emotions are intense.

[Xiangzi, calm down. At least now, in this world, we are the only two who can understand each other.]

Shoko Toyokawa stared at the card in a daze.

【Sorry, Qing.】

The girl lay on her side, looking under the bed.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi stared quietly at the ceiling of the bed.

They are the only ones who can understand each other.

In the Cage: 11. Don't be anxious

I understand your eagerness, but showing off your talent at this time may not be a good thing.

Stupid dogs should be kept in cages, but smart dogs should be locked up.

We don’t know what will happen next, and we need more time to observe and understand.

Learning a language is for communication and survival, but I cannot agree with behaviors that harm the body.

[When I first came into this world, I said I was scared, Xiangzi. I need you. If something happens to your body and I'm the only one left... So promise me, don't worry, okay?]

Nagasaki Kiyoshi understood Xiangzi's somewhat morbid sense of responsibility and delivered a targeted attack.

Shoko Toyokawa grabbed the bed sheet, tightened it, and then loosened it.

[Well, we... Qing, I will go on with you.]

Thank you, Xiangzi. Go to bed early. You've worked hard today. You still have plenty of time to think about the future.

There were still some words that couldn't be found to describe it appropriately, so the two of them posted "sleep" as usual.

Miss Toyokawa did not feel happy about being relied upon. On the contrary, she felt that she had found a source of support to alleviate her confusion.

[I am even weaker than Qing, too weak to say it out loud, but Qing said it all out loud...]

Qing told her that they were helping each other and had an equal relationship...

Those words flooded my heart, and I felt as touched as a close hug.

She felt the warmth of care, like clear water poured on dry land.

The hedgehog gradually lowered its spines, revealing its soft belly.

Xiangzi warned himself not to work blindly but to find the right direction.

She closed her eyes.

Maybe because I was tired, I slept very well tonight.

Solitaire, still no information was collected.

……

The next day, I woke up feeling refreshed.

The learning progress is adjusted to normal range.

Xiangzi restrained the urge to understand immediately, and accepted the information normally, analyzing and understanding it many times, giving his mind enough buffer time.

She also gradually realized that sometimes one cannot achieve one's goal by being impatient.

It can be clearly felt that Ms. Aite has also relaxed a lot.

Solitaire observed them for a long time but could not find any flaws.

After the morning study, there was an unexpected surprise - Solitude allowed them to move around at the door.

I don't know what season it is, the sun is not particularly hot, facing a blue sea and white sand, the waves roll up and hit the rough beach, and plants like palm trees and pine trees sway their branches and leaves in the distance

It would hurt to walk barefoot on the beach, but it is also beautiful. Broken shells are buried among the gravel, and occasionally small shrimps and crabs crawl out and run towards the sea.

Very typical southern style.

A few people dressed in cool clothes felt the sea breeze and the vastness of the sea and sky.

Nagasaki Qing enjoyed the breeze for a while, then went to find Solitaire. He combined the words he had just learned with actions to communicate with the foreign girl.

Ask her which seaside creatures are edible, including fish, shellfish, seaweed, etc.

Now that it's out, you might as well take a look at it.

It took Solitude a while to understand, but she was much quicker than before. After realizing that it was food, she led him towards the sea.

When the sea water was high enough to cover his ankles, Solitaire flew up, holding his collar, and a force lifted him up, flying towards the boundless sea.

Although living in Tokyo, Nagasaki Kiyoshi has not seen the sea many times, and the smell of the wind is a little bit difficult to adapt to.

But the scenery at this time and the shock of looking into the distance from high altitude are enough to make up for this shortcoming.

……

Nagasaki Kiyoshi likes vegetables, tea and snacks. Fish is okay, and as for meat, he can accept meat cooked with more moisture, but he doesn't like the taste of offal.

My mother commented that I am one of the rare young people in modern times who eats healthily.

He had not planned to ask Solitiel for anything more just to satisfy his appetite, but he did not expect Solitiel to be so attentive, or perhaps he was in a playful mood and took him flying very far. After arriving at the destination, he summoned a long and wide sword out of thin air and let him sit on it.

Then it began to churn the ocean.

It should be the same magic used to wash clothes and dishes in the past, but this time the scope of influence is particularly large.

The naked eye couldn't see what was happening, but Nagasaki Kiyoshi vaguely felt that something was spinning.

The body is heating up and the senses are becoming more acute.

White waves surged on the sea surface, and in an instant, a huge whirlpool was born on the sea surface. A moment later, large and small sea fish floated out of the water with their bellies turned up.

……

【Scattering Magic·Demon Clan】

【Sword Magic·Demon Clan】

There are two more of these things in the skill store.

The former's skill description is: A very common technique for scattering magic power, which can hardly be called magic. The power is related to the amount of magic power.

The latter's introduction is: magic that uses magic power to create sword-shaped structures, which has the characteristics of low consumption and concealment. It requires continuous practice and testing to obtain a stable form that fits one's own magic power.

The former is 100 points and the latter is 900 points.

"Zi..."

The noise of the oil was a little louder.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi turned over the golden-fried fish fillet and continued thinking.

Are these the two "magic" used by Solitaire?

The latter should be the sword that carries him, and the former is the ability to create whirlpools on the sea.

Just ordinary tricks?

As expected, Solitiel is very strong.

And the suffix after the skill, "Demon", must be Solitaire's race, indeed not human.

Before, when Lady Aqua was about to send them to the other world, she said that the demons were bad species, and it seemed that the demons in this world were not good things either.

Also, is this marking because the magic of demons and humans is different?

Nagasaki Qing reconfirmed the shop's prompt: [You can increase the items included in the skill shop through observation and learning, and you can also acquire them by spending points.]

Perhaps, he can learn it through his own abilities?

A little excited.

It is indeed a gift from the goddess. Although there were some unexpected events, it is still very helpful.

If we couldn’t communicate using cards during this period, I don’t know what the situation would be like now.

Thank you, Aqua-sama.

After praying in his heart, Nagasaki Kiyoshi closed the card.

The points are far from enough and there is no way to obtain them now.

However, the existence and learnability of magic were confirmed, information about the Solitaire race was obtained, and lastly, and most tangibly: dinner was much richer.

These were enough to make him happy.

"Very happy."

Solitaire was as elusive as ever.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi recognized the word "happy" and nodded.

"dinner."

The other side also turned a moist golden color and was ready to be taken out of the pan. He put the fish fillet on a plate and handed it to Solitaire.

The texture and aroma of the meat are similar to cod. It is only marinated with salt for a while and sprinkled with black pepper before it is served. It tastes good and brings out the sweetness and tenderness of the meat.

In the absence of seasoning, it is good enough to bring out the original flavor of the food.

If he were at home, he would squeeze some lemon juice.

"Oh."

Solitaire sighed softly, took the plate, cut off a piece with a knife, put it in her mouth with a fork, chewed, and nodded with satisfaction.

"tasty."

It was a taste she had never tasted before.

Although she hadn't eaten much human food.
