090 – The Shadow’s Magic Tools & The Magic Language

Editor: Poor_Hero

” …Please show me the tools from the Hall of Shadows ”

I said to John-sensei nervously but he gave a consenting look at me

” …True, yousince you’re Will ”

John-sensei then injected mana into a lock on top of a chest Click, cluck noises sounded as it sprang open John-sensei then thrust his arm deep into it

” There Though it’s not supposed to be shown to others ”

Say that, John-sensei looked ata bowl

A bowl of ‘food’

I stared at hi about it, of course he would show that kind of eyes It was because even for all the researchers working in Elzht not even come up with 1 new spell in this lifetiical tools were valuable to them

The tool handed over was shaped like a birdcage and had a ic stone embedded in the place where the bird was supposed to be I opened the cage door and took out the stone, revealing the ic circle underneath

” …eh? ”

Si mana increase…?

Looking at the dumbfounded me, John-sensei asked with a serious look on his face

” Will, do you know theof this circle? ”

Usually he would hide his interest well but regarding this, oh how John-sensei had fallen

” Yes The carved circle had a ic to mimic an increase in mana ”

” I see… The reason why the chief of Shadows had su him was… ”

” Because of this tool, which gathered s and forcefully pushed it into the user ”

Silence

Unintentionally, both of us looked at each other in silence This was the only way one could increase their mana pool It was not impossible, but very very very difficult to do

” This… ”

John-sensei groaned, stunned

” I think Spinel’s death was caused by this… ”

As the truth was too shocking, I went into a daze I rushed over, worrying if Spinel’s death was because of me but it was not so

To su used/eaten up Even I did nothing, he would die anyway Rather, it could be said that thanks to er

” ……ha ”

A sh of relief leaked out

I was quite heartless, wasn’t I?

I would never knohat pushed hi that he didit, gave me the chills

Even though everyone would die sooner or later

I was relieved I didn’t know if it’s a good or a bad thing, but I was not a kid, overfloith a sense of ‘justice’, who thought that all evil must be defeated as I knew that the world was not as siht smile when they killed off an enemy like those of a superhero show

…But I wondered if I was as cold-hearted for feeling relief

” I am relieved ”

As all of that was going throughhis arms

” Relieved…? ”

I entle smile

” Yes As there is no need to worry about the threat [Shadows] posed any longer …Actually, I orried if that [Shadoas feigning death ”

John-sensei’s words struck

straight through s melted away

I see

Rather than being angry at the [Shadows], I was in fear of theering fear inside me

Even so, what tenacity

In this case, it ht be easier to understand if I were to conore the fact that different people have different ht to consu this tool, it was like drinking the entire bottle of soy sauce When salt was overconsumption, salt levels for places other than the cells were raised, and in order to maintain the equilibrium, water would be extracted from the cells and dehydration would happen Well, it was a bit different for mana but this comparison, to me, seemed to be the closest

To have a huge athe body to break down The mana needed to summon Demon was forced into the body all at once so the body could not even resist

With this, I finally understood Spinel’s death

So that hy Spinel looked tired and his ht at the Hall of Shadows Rather, I felt ad able toBut for the body to be eaten to that extent… was pretty disgusting

Instinctively, I shi+vered and hugged my shoulders as my eyes met with John-sensei, who had a frown on

” ……John-sensei, what is the matter? ”
