Oh yeah, now that you mention it… How much magic do I have again? Since I came to this world, I haven’t been able to see my own status… until now I didn’t mind but… when I first came to this world, I became too excited and used magic too much, and ran out of magic power, so it’s not like its infinite but…
“What’s wrong?”
“I don’t know…”
“Eh!? But, normally you have to go the church when you reach 10 years… I see, Ryouma-san, you’ve been living in the forest, right? Then in that case how are you able to tell your limit?”
“Based on my body’s state and my intuition”
“Is that, ok?”
“If one gets used to it, then there’s no problem.”
Rheinbach-sama began to explain.
“In a normal family, one would go to the church on their 10th birthday and receive a measurement of their status. At that moment, based on the magic power of a person it will be decided whether that person can become a magician in the future or not. For us, nobles, we do it on the fifth birthday so we can start with training early. However, Ryouma-kun, your magic is probably not low. Since you were able to use magic consecutively, like that, without cutting off your magic power, you should be in possession of a significant amount of magic power.”
“It’s possible you might have around the same magic power as Elialia.”
“If it’s like that, then I’ll be very happy”
“?”
Why would Ojousama be happy? While I was thinking that, Sebasu-san noticed and explained to me.
“Ojousama possesses an enormous amount of magic power. Given her position, from a very young age, she has received special treatment. Because of that it became difficult to create friends that would be able to talk to her easily.”
The ojousama looked, at me, and then explained herself.
“… Even though for this country’s royal court magic practitioners, at most, a magic power of a little over 60,000 can be considered to be strong. But, my magic power is 200,000.”
200000, huh? This ojousama, she wouldn’t have happened to have been reincarnated from Earth, would she? The gods did mention that there are people who received cheats and were sent here before.
“I see.”
“I see? Aren’t you shocked!? It’s four times that that of a royal court magic practitioner, you know!?”
Even if you tell me that, I’m also a cheating bastard… so…
“Not really.”
“Not really, you say?”
Whether the magic power is 60,000 or 200,000, nothing really changes. As I was thinking that, the Ojousama’s expression became uneasy, and she asked me this.
“… Am I, not scary?”
“Why?”
“I’m… carrying an unbelievable amount of magic power”
Right, so?
“Ojousama, are you going to do bad things with that magic power?”
“I won’t!”
“Do you want to hurt people?”
“There’s no such thing! I’m…”
“Then, what’s there to be afraid of?”
“Eh?”
“You don’t plan to do bad things… there’s no intention to hurt others… that kind of person… what’s there to be afraid of?”
“That’s… but…”
I wonder if something happened in the past.
“Then… Ojousama, am I scary?”
“Eh?!?”
“I’ve… killed many people, you know? In total, I’ve killed 30 people… I’ve also killed animals… also killed magical beasts… on top of all that… I killed someone worth 700 small gold coins… even if it was all for the sake of living, the fact that I’ve killed is true”
Ah… right, I’ve killed… If it was Japan I’d be a murdering demon. I don’t think what I did was wrong though, if I hesitated I would have died. But still, the fact that I’ve killed is the truth. In other words…
“The person called Ryouma-kun in front of Ojousama… is a person who possesses the power to kill that many people… is Ojousama scared of that kind of me?”
“There’s no such thing! Because Ryouma-san…! Ah...”
“It’s the same… I too, don’t think of Ojousama as scary… whether the magic power is 60,000 or 200,000… that won’t change… in the first place, humans can die easily… Let alone 200,000 not even 60,000 magic power is needed… humans can be killed even with a low level magic, Fire Ball, and if one is clumsy, they can fall, hit their head, and die, right?”
