21 Episode 21: Let'S Do A Physical Exam
I was stuck thinking in my own workshop. Today we will investigate Raini's demonic stones and explore ways to control his power. On top of that, I had concerns. But I didn't say that to anyone.
(Raini can remain human when control is achieved by instilling magic into the Demon Stone...?
Even though I thought about the possibility, I didn't say it because I couldn't yet make a decision.
Vampires are demons changed from wizards. And a vampire is half dead. When you awaken the power of the Demon Stone, it's impossible that your body will suddenly become half decayed. After a long examination, Raini remains a legitimate human being.
"When you get the art of controlling demon stones, it's unknown if you can just stay human,"
I don't know if a vampire can remit a child. Maybe there's an individual difference, or maybe Raini really had a miracle-like chance of God receiving raw.
It is unknown what changes will happen to Raini when he puts the power of the Demon Stone under control. I can only make speculation because there is no precedent. That's why I couldn't say it. I can't believe you could be a monster if you help.
"I hope you roll in the right direction"
I wish there was nothing. It would be ideal if it would at least fit to the point of being attacked by a blood-sucking urge. Even though I know of the existence of a vampire, it is riddled to the ecology. That's enough to add a variety of dorsal fin tail fins to your story.
I can't help but worry. The clock needle never stops, because we can only do what we can little by little.
Never mind. I leave the workshop. I only came here to get the tools I needed in the first place. If we left for the courtyard as soon as possible, Yufi and Raini and Ilia would be waiting there.
"Sorry to keep you waiting! Then let's start practicing control of Raini's magic."
"Yes, thank you"
Raini nods with a tight look. Until the other day, Raini lacked the hegemony to say some pretty girl of dim fortune, but now I feel full of motivation. Nod that what you are willing to do is a good thing.
Well, it's Mana Blade who gives it to Raini like that. This dish boasts some of the finest craftsmanship and stability in the Demonic Props. Let's get used to this first.
"This is the magic item I made called Mana Blade. Even magic has magic to make magic blades, right?
"Yes, did you make this by touching it?
"Yes. So, the use of this instills the necessary magic..."
Set up Mana Blade after a short distance. Raini sends an interesting gaze at the blade, which is constituted by magic. Next to it, Yufi was letting his cheeks loosen as he nodded at Raini's reaction that he was too.
"Then why don't we use Raini?"
"Yes. Inject magic... with doing it magically... just like..."
Whimpering the steps several times, Raini pours his magic on Mana Blade. Yeah, it feels like I saw it. There doesn't seem to be a problem with the flow of magic. I don't feel weird, and I don't see any abnormalities.
And lightly Mana Blade was producing a blade of magic. Raini is seriously observing Mana Blade and trying to shake it gently.
"Wow, this is amazing. It's easier than just making magic! I wonder if I prefer this one. I've never used a sword or anything..."
"I prefer magic because it's wider, but I guess this is better for those who aren't good at magic."
"Um, compared to Master Uphilia, yeah, a little... on a boulder"
Raini is smiling bitterly at Ufilia's words. That's right, you're the head of a genius child. Yufi is. Because it is the privilege of those who can do better freely on their own.
Now, while Raini's magic flow is fine, shall we keep doing some check-ups?
"Raini, I wonder if you could intervene a few times to get in and out of the blade. Because I'm a little curious about how Demon Stone reacts."
"Ah, yes.... Speaking of which, where is Demon Stone in your body?
That, I didn't tell you. I point my chest at Raini tilting his neck. It was the heart that pointed it out.
"Here. I think it's stuck with the heart"
"... to the heart. Um, if I remove that, I won't die instantly......?
"It's okay. It's a last resort, so let's hope there isn't one."
"I don't like being ripped out of my chest and dying......!
Oh, I think I'm overmotivated in a strange place. Well, whatever the history, it's desirable to be motivated.
Then excuse me. I turn around behind Raini and hug Raini so he can keep his back. Put those hands firmly on your chest...... yeah, I guess they're bigger than me. No, this could be pretty big...?
"Oh, oh, that!? Princess Anisphere!? Why are you rubbing your chest!?"
"To see the demon stone react. No, but you have quite a few things..."
"Hih."
"What are you doing?"
Blunt pain ran on my head with the dull sound. I'm about to scream as it is, but I can handle it because I'm holding Raini tight. Ilia, add or subtract a little more and hit me!? If I hit you, I'll make that noise!?
Maybe next time I'll make some Harrison for Ilia and give it to her. If I get beat up badly, the boulder will tear me down, too. It still doesn't hurt if you get slapped on that one, and the Ilia you're slapping might drop your drinks. Let's consider it.
"Well, then, Raini, try it"
"Yes, no..."
While blushing, Raini repeats Mana Blade's activation. I'll explore the magic flow to the Demon Stone, but the Demon Stone still doesn't feel like it's flowing.
But it doesn't look like there's any magic in the Stone. By analogy, as there is a circuit through which magic passes, it feels that although it is connected to the circuit, magic is not actively flowing.
Still, there are demonic stones in the flowing path, and they receive magic. But I'm not actively trying to harness magic. Should this state be referred to as an inactivated state?
"Hmm, I see. That's enough. Thanks."
"... this is an examination, this is an examination, because this is an examination..."
When I let Miss Raini go, she held her chest tight and was distanced. He said he had no other intention. But it worked, hehe.
When I thought about it, I saw Yufi with no expression. I can't see the color of that emotion. It's like my eyes are complaining about something, cough it up and then get back on my mind. Come on, let's be serious!
"I guess I know more or less the state of Raini's demonic stones! There seems to be no problem with the magic manipulation, so let's move on to the next phase!... and I just wanted to say. Wouldn't you like to go?"
"... is there something?
"Speaking of which, there is. Yeah, you're right. So let's talk about it."
It's going to be a little long, so I encourage you to move to the tea party space in the courtyard. Ilia is the only one who is away and ready for tea.
Wait for Ilia's tea to make it, and moisten her throat with that tea. I regain my mind and look over everyone again.
"There was no problem manipulating Raini's magic, and the Demon Stone is in an inactivated state. I know it's like a drooling state because it's moving with minimal force but I haven't even operated it. Well, then, we're gonna talk about controlling this. I need you to be ready before I do."
"... ready, is it?
Raini frowns anxiously. And I nod and answer.
"When you activate the Demon Stone, a change can happen to the flesh. It could affect your spirit, and if you put it simply, it's not like you could really be a vampire."
"... you mean I won't be able to be me?
"It may or may not be. I couldn't say anything until I knew it clearly. I didn't want you to get me wrong. Sorry about this, Raini."
"... no"
Raini shakes her neck left and right with a sunken look. I'm sorry I'm depressed, but I can't stop talking here, so I'll keep going.
"Well, you don't have to look so anxious. At least because there's a precedent for pimping."
"Precedents?"
It's about me.
Yufi looked at me with a slight change of complexion to Raini, who leaned her neck. As if to ask for an explanation of what it means.
I just didn't say it because I didn't think it was enough to say it. I'll explain it properly when I get a chance. Because it's about that extent.
"I am engraving my body with demonic stones. I mean, it's pretty much the same as having a demon stone in it."
"Really?!?"
"I'll show you next time. Um, so. Maybe there's nothing wrong with using the power of Demon Stone. It's just that I'm crushing it and turning it into paint, so Raini and I have a different premise. I guess Raini's body turns into that of a vampire because I'm under similar influence."
"... does that mean that Master Anis could also become a demon?
Uffi asks with a slightly more sharp voice color. I snort firmly, without denying it.
"Because it's like a curse. In the first place, I was a little cursed by dragons before I carved demon stones into my body."
"Dragon!?"
"Oh, yeah. Isn't that amazing? But you can stay like this, so you don't really care about Raini either, do you? I can handle it!... That's what we talked about. It's no big deal to say curse. But because you killed yourself, you were cursed whether you were stronger than yourself or a dragon."
Dragon exorcism made possible by giving everything you can have. Finally, the dragon put such a curse on me before I could breathe out. The loser is deprived of everything, versus the winner gets everything. Then you'll be the next dragon.
And since engraving was engraved on my body, I have become subject to interference from engraving. Power, strength, closer to the dragon, as I say. Well, it's not that annoying if you don't shed magic either.
Still more susceptible to engraving when it is used. Becoming belligerent or feeling a little daunted. I'm just aware of it and I'm not going to be drunk by it. That's the only thing and I'm breaking it off. It's not inconvenient.
"For that reason, being cursed isn't harmful because you're familiar with your body. If you're careful, there's no inconvenience in living normally. Still, they won't look good if they find out."
Like Uffi there, or Ilia, who's creating some awesome signs back there. No, I'm thankful you're worried, because there's no problem! I want you to forgive me with the results ohrai, truthfully.
"In Miss Raini's case, unlike mine, it's from the Demon Stone itself. I want you to keep in mind that blood sucking impulses and all those vampire traits can come out of your body."
"... Yes"
"So instead of directly controlling the Demon Stone, we might be able to explore ways to seal it up somehow, but it's going to take a while. Above all, that could put a load on your body. It's not natural for the body."
Because it is natural to have demon stones, making demon stones completely dysfunctional may have some effect on Raini. In the end, no matter what you do, there is a risk, and later you get to the point of what you want to do in person.
"... wasn't Princess Anisphere afraid?
"Hmm?"
"I don't think I'm going to be human."
"No, nothing...?
"That's light!?"
I have returned nothing in particular to Raini, who has asked me with a serious face. No, apart from saying if you actually think anything of it there?
"I think it's a matter of human definition."
"Definition issues?
"I think that's why I have it. I'm not quitting being a human being to be like a dragon. I can't say enough to a boulder when that figure is no longer human. Still, I'm the one who chose that. Then I insist on being human while I'm still here, and I don't care who told me."
Keep who you want to be. That's why I thought I was disqualified as a royalty, and I don't think nobility is the right way to live. Because I want to do what I want, admire what I want to be, and live free.
Because there's magic. I was not free to use that magic. I'm still looking for a technique to use. It's made and produced. That's the essence of me that I can't change for the rest of my life. So I won't give it to anyone, and I don't want to. So much so that I think I can do anything for it.
That's not why I want to actively throw away what I was born with. Because it's still a matter of priority.
"There's a lot going on in humans, too. Some Uffi like a chunk of talent, Ilia who looks heartless and is actually thick in emotion, Raini who may have happened to be born as a demonic half. And I'm just a shapebreaker who loves magic. Even though humans are so different, there's no way we can narrow down the definition of human being to one."
"... that's a great theory"
"If you want to be human, you just keep saying you're human. I treat you as a human being within acceptable limits, and most importantly, you said I would take care of you when it comes to Raini. I don't care if you become a vampire."
"It's really lame, Princess Anisphere."
Raini laughs like she's in trouble. But I don't see the sad colors that floated until earlier.
"Looking at Princess Anisphere makes you look silly to be worried about"
"With all due respect, if you become like a princess, you lose some of your common sense as a person, so be careful."
"You disparage me very naturally, don't you, Ilia?"
"Because it's true."
I'm not denying it.
Who did you laugh out of? Everyone was laughing when they realized it.
Of course, that doesn't mean there's no more pressure to stop being human. I know that it's not like I can call something unacceptable to human society human.
Still, I can't be anything but me. Everyone should be. So if you're going to be what you want to be and still insist you're human, you just need to put your chest up. I'm the one who chooses.
"Hey, Raini"
"Yes."
"What do you want to do?
So it's easy to ask. I just asked him to confirm.
Raini lays her eyes down once. There was definite power in his eyes that opened again.
"I, I want to take my power... Because it's the power I've always been with."
"Oh well."
"Yes."
Then I'll just help. If that's what she wants.
"When using magic, keep the feeling of instilling magic around your body. I want you to feel your magic flow in your body first."
Follow my instructions and Raini will focus his consciousness. He closes his eyes and carefully imagines the feeling I say as he takes many deep breaths.
To make it easier, check the condition while placing your hand on Raini's shoulder sitting in the chair. To instantly understand Reini's magic manipulation and the state of the Demon Stone. So far, there seemed to be no problem.
I take my gaze off a little and look at Uffi and Ilia watching away, making them nod to reassure me. So far, no problem.
"... somehow, I think I can grab it"
"Yeah. Well, gather some magic in your heart and see. Something uncomfortable?
"... I feel like I'm being stopped by weirs, clogged. But it's like solving it with magic..."
"Yeah. Don't forget that feeling. Because that's what it feels like to instill magic in demonic stones. You can take your time. Don't rush."
A glimmer of sweat falls from Raini's forehead. Remove the handkerchief and wipe it.
I wonder how much time has passed. I sense Raini's change from the hand I had on my shoulder. The magic that had been gathered in Raini's heart was beginning to travel all over his body again.
"Raini? Are you okay?
I look around to the front and peek into Raini's face. Raini, whose eyes were closed, slowly opens his eyes.
Red. First the color got to my eyes. The suspicious light is blurring in the iris of the back of the eye. Keep carefully observing the changes you see and see.
"... Princess Anisphere"
"Yeah. It's me, what do you say? Do you have any unusual feelings about yourself?
"... my body is hot. Looks like I got a fever..."
"Yeah. Shall we release the magic then? Don't let it out all at once, take your time."
"Yes..."
Encourage Raini to release his magic by holding hands to calm him down. Close your eyes again and slowly release your magic as Raini exhales.
You've calmed down, Raini opens his eyes again. Though it is the suspicious light that has disappeared, the colour of the iris has been stained with red colour. What kind of change is this?
"Eye color, you've changed... can I see it for a second?
"Huh? Really?
Peek into Raini's eyes with a change of color. If you pay close attention, you still have a pale residue of magic in your eyes. Is this... like my engraving? I get the impression that some kind of magic is burning.
"Any change in vision?
"... no, especially. I'm just uncomfortable with my eyes."
"What discomfort?
"Sounds like a good street of magic can do it if you put some magic through your eyes...... can you do it again?
"Fine, take a look at me."
Raini nods at my instructions and starts putting magic into his eyes again. Raini's eyes are shaking with suspicious light floating again.
Within sight of the light, you are struck by the feeling that your spine is twisted. They took the magic even though the engraving on my back wasn't even activated. Surprised by the sudden sensation, it seemed to go on when I was eyeing Raini, so I strayed from my gaze.
"Did you do something to me? Raini."
"Uh... Wow, I don't know. It's just... your eyes are taking magic with them, like they're using magic."
"Devil's Eye... or something? Though mental interference is a possible possibility. Is there anything else uncomfortable?
"My whole body, it's still hot, but my eyes and heart are especially. There's more... ah"
"Hmm?"
"Mouth...... no, teeth, is it? Something mushy..."
"Uh...... Raini, uh."
If I let Raini open his mouth, I could just see the dog tooth area getting sharper. This is a picturesque change...
"Your teeth are fangs..."
"Ho, ho, ho, ho? Oh, heh heh heh heh heh heh."
"Sorry, you can keep your mouth shut. What?"
"Ah, yes. Looks like I'll be back if I don't put some magic into it. Here."
Hold your mouth before Raini opens his mouth. I couldn't see the canine teeth I had earlier there. Hmm? Temporary physical changes due to magic? Interesting, this is interesting!
I don't know how the hell it works, I'm curious. Changes due to demonic stones, that's too unknown. I was concerned about that. I'm glad I can't go back when I'm like a vampire.
"This... is worth looking into. Hehe, that's very interesting, Raini......!
"Hino!? Yu, Master Uphilia! Dear Ilia! I am afraid of Princess Anisphere's eyes!!"
"Hey, any other changes!? What kind of things are you going to be able to do!? Tell your sister...!! Quick! Look, come on! Ha-ya-ya-ya-ku!!"
It wasn't until after eating the full body blow of Ilia that I realized that I accidentally got tense and scared Raini away that I was stuffy. I think there's something more about how to stop it!?
Refresh your mind and check on Raini. Is there a change in the state of the demonic stone or is there no change in the whole body? Of course, with Uffi and Ilia under surveillance. I mean, I'm so scared of Ilia. Yes, yes, I'll take a serious look.
"... Huh? This is interesting inside. No, that's really interesting. I see, this is the kind of approach you're going to take...... no, I honestly admire this. But if this is a natural occurrence...... no, wow, I could say this is a great discovery of the century!!"
"Um, Princess Anisphere, there's another tension...!
"Ha......! Sorry, I'm so excited. No, if this is what I'm guessing it is, I'm going to tremble at how talented the wizard who became the prototype of the vampire was...! Ugh, yeah, yeah! I wanted to see something like this!! Oh how happy!! I'm so grateful! What a great day!!"
If I look it up, my skin will poppy as much as I look into it. This is for joy. I understand more or less by looking into it. This is a hell of a mechanism. Though different from mine, that's why it's funny!
"Don't just convince yourself. Can you explain?
"Of course! You listened very carefully, Ilia! Let's start with the conclusion! First I found out that a demon named Vampire is real, but not real!!"
"... what do you mean?
I can see you're questioning me. 'Cause this isn't such an existing idea. It's very similar to me, but it's like a nearby, distant brotherhood born because things are different from me!
"The very identity of a demon named Vampire is a" magic system "called Vampire!
