The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

he Claude Leonhardt I know from the future, is the person who brings the magic known as Scout Scope into the Magician Society and she is a genius magician.

My title as the Supreme Flame Mage was taken away within the next year of Scout Scopes discovery, furthermore she appeared like the wind and also disappeared without a trace so I dont have too much information about her.

Or more like, in the future I was from, she was a magician that liked to remain anonymous so there is really no significant information about her available.

The only thing I know is her name and a photograph of her, thats about it.

And I have forgotten about this fact, until now.

And also about the fact that she was the one to bring Scout Scope

The magical spell that enable others to express their talents numerically.

With this single spell, the magical world took a great leap in advancement.

The level of water magic also increased in general and people were elected into high positions based on their high latent talents instead of their current talents.

On the opposite side, Magicians with a low latent ability were all chased out and put out of jobs.

Just like what happened to me when I got discarded like trash for my low fire latent potential.

Anyways, enough about this.

But what I am confused about is, why the person who hands Scout Scope to the Magician Society is not Milly but Claude?

If I am not mistaken Claude was not part of any guild when she brought Scout Scope.

Millys guild the Blue Sky Hunters was also not in any of the records that I was aware of, most likely it was extinguished from existence.

Thinking about such things, the cold sweat running down my back does not stop.

Did Milly perhaps die? And after that Claude obtained the scroll of Scout Scope as a keepsake?

No, if Claude wanted to bring fame/respect to Millys name she would have mentioned it when she brought the scroll in.

Considering that Claude stated her own name in the records, it is likely that Millys Scout Scope was deprived/stolen.

Millys Magic scroll which was painstakingly invented by shedding blood and tears.

For someone to deprive such an invention, is akin to trampling down someone whilst they are on the ground and then laterboasting about it.

In the Magician Society, this was a taboo, amongst the taboo acts to commit.

Obviously if Milly had been alive at this time, this piece of information would have been disclosed.

How did Claude steal it?

That kind of thing is obvious.

She Killed.

Before I noticed it, I was glaring right at Claude who was receiving Millys healing.

I gripped the nape of her neck, and pushed her down to the ground.

WhWait Zeph! What are you doing!?

Stay silent Milly!

Zephkun..?

I continued to strangle Claudes neck right to the very limit.

Even I think I am not being calm.

But I cant stop.

Whilst grasping very tightly I started to raise my fist.

Zeph!

The fist I rose up high, slipped past Claudes face and hit the ground.

Before I knew it my hand was tied behind my back.

It was unnaturally twisted up by Claude.

She was the one holding my hand and she continued to tighten her grip.

Ackk!?

Please tell me the reason Zeph-kun. I may have done something that is terrible to you or I may have disrespected you. But unless you tell me what it is I cannot understand it, nor can I apologize for it

My arm was shrieking in pain.

In terms of pure Physical Strength, It seems that Claude is much stronger than me.

If this is the case, bring it on!

On the contrary the pain in my arm allows me to concentrate my efforts.

Claude also reacts to the torrent of magic that violently gushes out of me, And..!

Stop it!!

Kiinn a huge ringing sound that made my ears ring resounded, Both Claude and I stopped our movements.

Milly took an imposing stance as she spoke in an arbitrary voice.

I almost thought that my eardrums would burst.

You guys, thats enough! Especially Zeph!.Did something happen?

Ah..no.errr..

Hm? What?

Milly peeks at me who currently have my eyes cast downwards.

Her piercing gaze seems to extract the poisonous air/feeling around me.

.Im sorry, it was just my misunderstanding

Arent you apologizing to the wrong person? Say it to Claude

She let out a reconciling smile.

I think a little while ago my vision just blurred red and blood was going into my head, but if I thought about it carefully, killing Claude could easily be me coming to my own quick conclusions.

To begin with, the main reason that Claude chose to bring the scroll at such an advanced time in the future is still unclear.

There is also the possibility that Claude did not even get to meet Milly.

.But shit! I cant get rid of this uncomfortable feeling in my chest.

However, I dont have any hard proof of Claudes actions.

Moreover, from what I can see, the Claude that is presently right in front of my eyes, can be seen as nothing but a good fellow.

Shes starting to build a good amount of trust in Milly, and it is likely that they will become good friends.

As much as possible I try to put on a tranquil facade as I request a handshake.

I am sorry. You had a bug on your face

FuKuku (sfx laughter), what a disgraceful excuse. Lets just forget about it

Thanks

As we were shaking each others hand awkwardly, Milly also grabbed on to our hands.

Alright! Since we have all made up, lets just go home and eat a cookie or something!

That sounds good. Im, really good at baking cookies

Just like a woman arent you?

I am a woman, you know!

Claude acted as if what happened a little while ago was a trivial matter as she spoke.

Normally if I were to go as far as put somebody in a choke hold, the natural reaction would be to look at me with eyes of criticism/reproach, but I cannot find a tinge of sarcasm or hatred in her voice.

To tell you the truth, I dont really know if something actually happened between Milly and Claude.

However, as much as possible I need to be on the lookout for Millys sake, right?

People can change in dreadful waysover time.

(Milly)

When I messaged her directly via the guild messaging system, Millys line of vision turned towards me.

(Can you please not teach the magic of Scout Scope to Claude for me?)

(.Has this got something to do with why you were fighting with Claude a few moments ago?)

(Ahh. But I cannot really tell you all the details)

(Whats with that?)

(Please, Im begging you!)

I seriously asked her with a solemn face, and Milly was just observing me carefully.

We were like that for two. no three seconds perhaps?

(..I understand. However I cannot conceal this from Claude forever you know? After all I like to talk a lot)

(I know)

Poka (smack) Milly hits my head.

(What are you doing?!)

(Hey its not nice to confirm such a thing about a lady! Cant you read the situation a bit more?)

(But, isnt it the truth?!)

(Ahh Ive had enough! If you are going to be like this Im going to tell Claude all about Scout Scope)

(Dont be foolish! Didnt I just tell you not to say such things?!)

Excuse me..Would it be alright if you two stop talking amongst yourself in your mind? If I cant join in the conversation wont I be all alonee?

Claude was gently scratching her cheek with a face that looks embarrassed/troubled.

Ah, I totally forgot that Claude was actually here.

Milly was also making the same face as me.

At Millys House.

We were currently enjoying the coffee brewed by Milly and the cookies baked by Claude.

By the way, I would also like to be included in your guys discussion when you talk via your mindsWhat do I have to do to be able to achieve such a thing?

It will be easy if you just join the Guild

How do I do that?

Obtaining the guild emblem as an accessory and presenting it to the leader of the guild, will allow the guild leader to attest to the emblem and allow entrance, this is the general procedure. Incidentally, Milly, have you made a guild emblem yet?

Whilst munching on her cookies Milly showed a slightly troubled face as she answered my question hesitantly.

Ahh, umm, err..The truth is I am still in the middle of thinking about it

Tahahah, she let out an awkward laughter as she scratched her own head.

If I am not mistaken I usually see some sort of scribble in her notebook from school, was that her thinking about the design of the guild emblem?

However considering the guild has been established for several months yet she hasnt yet created an emblem is a little bit of a problem

You dont have to make the emblem a perfect thing. It isnt really what represents the true power of a guild. Besides even if it is a little bit awkwardly made, it becomes a unique part of the guild

You really think so.?

Milly-san it might be really hard to think about it all by yourself, if you have some alternatives how about showing the potential candidates to us and we can all make a decision together?

Umm.Then, would you guys like to see it..?

Milly was being really bashful/shy as she took out her notebook from her school bag.

Oi Oi, that school bag is not the place to keep that kind of thing.

When both Claude and I looked at the opened up notebook, we both instinctively gulped down our breaths.

What was displayed was some sort of earthworm like character, and a page full of scribbles.

The whole notebook was pretty much covered in strange shapes and circles.

Some of the patterns look like mysterious magic formations.

Which one do you guys think are good?

When Milly asked for our opinion whilst blushing, Both Claude and I were at a complete and total loss for words.
