Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei

Volume 32 - Ch 6

A+A-

Minoru and Raymond's small cruiser was heading west through the Pacific Ocean at an average speed of fifty knots. The destination is Japan, as Tatsuya expected.

While using "Parade" to hide the ship from the eyes and observation equipment on the ship, Minoru was creating a summoning tile. It is a black talisman used by Zhou Gongjin as a medium to activate the ancient magic of the East Asian continent.

Zhou Gongjin's summoning tile magic is made by an engraved magical circle filled with cinnabar. The talisman is not made of paper. The engraving of letters and magical sigils are made on a thin talisman whose surface has been changed into graphite. Then mercury is poured into it, which reacts with sulfur by using magic processing to make cinnabar. Cinnabar is a magical component that is called "red earth" in Japan and is sometimes equated with "philosopher's stone" in Europe.

Minoru was energetically working on creating a time-consuming summoning tile in preparation for the battle with Tatsuya.

"Minoru."

Called by Raymond as he entered the cabin, Minoru stopped engraving the magic circle, raised his face and urged Raymond to continue with his eyes.

"There is no deviation in the route. The autopilot is operating normally."

There are only two people on this cruiser, Minoru and Raymond. Everything concerning navigation is left to the machine. At this time, there is a risk of typhoons in the western Pacific, but neither of them cares at all.

Rather than being carefree, this is probably the difference in consciousness between those who have magic and those who do not. If you are a high-level magician, some natural disasters are not a threat. Even if they can't prevent the disaster itself, they can do anything to protect themselves and the small boat they are on. Not to mention Minoru, who had the highest magical power among the Ten Master Clans, Raymond was not talented enough to be accepted on the Stars, but he has the ability to achieve top-class results in the high school's magician course.

Since the two of them are parasites, it may seem trivial for them to thoroughly check the risks of disaster.

"If nothing changes, we will reach Japanese waters on the 19th of the local calendar."

"Raymond's lines did not include any tone of distress"

"Is it nineteen days Yeah, The worst-case scenario is likely to be avoided."

Minoru nodded with a somewhat relieved look.

The ship sinking is, of course, not the worst thing Minoru envisions.

He is worried that Minami's treatment would not be concluded in time.

August 19th, 10 am.

"Minoru, were entering Japanese waters."

Raymond calls Minoru's attention while looking at a nautical chart with GPS,.

The fact that parasites can communicate with each other once they enter the border means that the parasites in Japan will detect Minoru and Raymond secret entry in the country.

When Minoru left the country, there were no parasites left in Japan. It is unlikely that a new parasite has emerged in Japan. But if there is a parasite, if he doesn't disguise himself with Parade, they'll almost certainly find where he is.

However, if he closes the parasite channel, he will not be able to find out how Minami is doing. Is Minami's condition worsened enough to require immediate attention, or is there still time left? It is a factor that will determine Minoru's course of action. There is no option to act without knowing the current situation.

Minoru gave up that it was unavoidable that his entrance would be known. At any rate, he decided to instantly read the current state of minami and deploy a "Parade" without a break, and hide their whereabouts..

"Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven"
