Chapter 14 : Special Training With Grandpa
It’s been 5 days since I visited Sherry’s
place.
When she woke up she got mad at me saying
“ Why did you leave when I slept?!! ”, and to improve her mood, I had to have a
long talk, rather, a long phone call, with her so it was quite difficult to
sleep.
Then, everyday, we would talk through the
night.
Someday I asked her why did we only talk
at night.
“Because it’s embarrassing since there are
always people around during the day.”(Sherry)
“Isn’t it fine since they can’t hear your
voice?”(Leo)
“Still, I don’t want anyone to see my face
when we’re talking.”(Sherry)
“And what kind of face would that
be?”(Leo)
“T-That’s not what you think.”(Sherry)
“Really?”(Leo)
“Geez, that’s enough for today!”(Sherry)
Ah, she ran away.
She’s embarrassed, how cute.
We always talk about whatever happened
during the day.
But it was difficult, since I was always
sleepy on the morning.
Today father and mother are coming home.
I didn’t come with them because I would
start attending school as well as grandfather’s special training from now on.
“Then see you, Leo.”(Carla)
“Yes, see you later.”(Leo)
“Listen carefully to what grandpa and
grandma say.”(Carla)
“I know. Mother also always taking care of
health.”(Leo)
“Of course. Leo should avoid staying up
late as much as possible.”(Carla)
“Y-Yes.”(Leo)
Could it be… that my night talks have been
found out?
“Mother and father are old as well, so
don’t force yourself and rest”(Carla)
“Yes, I’m also worried about that.”(Diork)
“Don’t worry about it, hurry up and
go.”(Kent)
“Ou, see you later then.”(Diork)
Saying that, they left.
“Alright, then let’s begin Leo’s special
training.”(Kent)
Eh? Now?
“Are we starting already?”(Leo)
“Of course. We have only 8 months until
you start attending school.”(Kent)
“Only” you say?
Even if you say that, I think we can do
special training even after I start attending…
“Well, it’s fine if you say that.”(Kent)
Eh? Serious? Can’t stop it?
“Yosh, since we’re doing it, I have to
think about the schedule. First of all, how much time will you be spending with
him grandma?”(Kent)
“I won’t be training him for now.”(Carina)
“Why?”(Kent)
“Last time, Damian said Leo was at a
pretty good level of magic already, so don’t have anything to teach for
now.”(Carina)
“When do you plan on starting then?”(Kent)
“I will think about that when he’s able to
use non-attribute magic to a certain extent.”(Carina)
“I see, then Leo will start by building
his physical strength, then after about a week he’ll start with swordsmanship
lessons, and then gradually begin training non-attribute magic in the afternoon
when he’s strong enough.”(Kent)
Apparently, this special training is gonna
be different from what I imagined…
This is Spartan education.
“So for now, let’s have lunch then do
physical training”(Kent)
“Y-Yeay…”(Leo)
Then after lunch, I’m at the garden with
grandfather.
“Then, let’s begin”(Kent)
“Y-Yes.”(Leo)
“For starters, keep running around the
house until you reach your limit.”(Kent)
“Eh?”(Leo)
Right off the bat?
“Get going already!”(Kent)
Seeing my reluctance to start running,
grandfather made a scary face that couldn’t be imagined from his usually gentle
behavior.
I reflexively started running when I saw
that.
“What happened for you to make him do
something like that?”(Carla)
“Since he’s smart, he will probably learn
swordsmanship and non-attribute magic right away. So I want to train his body
before that.”(Kent)
“That’s not it, why is his training
harsher than the other grandchildren’s?”(Carina)
“Aah, that’s because he’s the same as
me.”(Kent)
“What do you mean?”(Carina)
Carina leaned her head.
“Just because your magic talent is bad, no
matter how amazing you may be, people will look at you so coldly! Also, Leo is
going to attend school soon as well.”(Kent)
“Ah, you’re talking about when you were
just summoned huh.”
“That’s right, I was summoned here against
my will, and as soon as they learned my magic talent was bad, I was deemed incompetent.
Even when I returned from the fight against the Demon Lord, I was really upset
because they tried to make me work behind the scenes, while those guys do it.”(Kent)
Kent’s past is not all that pleasant for
him.
“That’s why you are training Leo so hard
huh.”(Carina)
“Well, all I can do is to teach him how to
fight with a sword and non-attribute magic.”(Kent)
“That’s enough. Not many people can really
use non-attribute magic.”(Carina)
“Really, it’s a pity. If you do your best,
it will become a great power.”(Kent)
“Either way, I’m too old for that
now.”(Carla)
“Oh, it’s about time for Leo to run out of
steam.”(Kent)
Leo was at his limit.
“Please, let’s stop already!”(Leo)
“Okay, that’s enough.”(Kent)
Hearing that, Leo immediately fell on the
spot.
<1 week later>
I underwent Grandpa’s special training for
a week, and it was pretty harsh…
This is a hell menu where you do morning
training, lunch, and then continue on running.

Title:
A
person with memories from a different world,
Sorcerer
It’s become like this.
You may think I have not grown that much,
but in a week I have far exceeded your average adult in terms of physical
strength.
This may be thanks to the Misanga of
Growth…
Apparently, the double effect works even
of physical training.
Really, it seems like I made the most
outrageous thing…
By the way, my magic power hasn’t
increased because I was so dead tired from grandfather’s special training that
I slept before doing my magical training for the past week.
And thus, grandfather will be teaching me
swordsmanship from now on.
“Starting today, I will teach you
swordsmanship.”(Kent)
“Yeay!”(Leo)
I raise my hands in joy because I’m freed
from that hellish physical training.
Then grandfather made a smirk.
“It’s good to rejoice, but for now, you
will just practice swinging movement until you have the muscles necessary to
swing the sword.”(Kent)
“O-Okay.”(Leo)
Still, it’s easier then running all the
time.
“And you will still be doing your
afternoon marathon.”(Kent)
“Th-This is hell!”(Leo)
It just becomes more difficult.
“Don’t worry, you will get used to it soon
enough.”(Kent)
When will I get used to this hell…
I want that moment to come as soon as
possible.
<2 weeks later>
Finally, my days of swinging and running
ended, and now I’m practicing with grandfather using wooden swords.
At first I was happy, but grandfather kept
hitting me, so I practiced desperately in order to not get hit, because it was
painful.
<3 weeks later>
Finally, I was able to somehow hold a
fight with grandfather.
But I could never land a blow.
No matter how hard I tried, he’d always
counter every one of my attacks.
Still, grandfather told be that soon he’d
teach me how to use non-attribute magic.
“Then, I’ll teach you.”(Kent)
“Yes!”(Leo)
“This is a bit complicated, but do you
understand that you move your body using your muscles?”(Kent)
“Yes.”(Leo)
“I see. Then, in order to use
non-attribute magic, you have to picture the strengthening of the muscles you
want to use magic in.”(Kent)
“Eh, that’s easy.”(Leo)
“That’s not true. Well, you will
understand soon, try running with non-attribute magic.”(Kent)
“Yes.”(Leo)
I tried to run by imagining reinforcement
on my feet.
Then, my upper body can’t keep up and I
fall on my back.
“Ouch, that hurts.”(Leo)
“See?”(Kent)
“Yes, if I only strengthen my legs, the
rest of my body can’t keep up.”(Leo)
“Right? The difficulty of this magic lies
in the fact that you have to control the power at the same time that you
strengthen what is needed.”(Kent)
“Can’t you just use it all over your
body?”(Leo)
“Some people do that, but they waste too
much magic power on strengthening places besides those needed.”(Kent)
“S-So that’s how it is.”(Leo)
This is really difficult.
Can I do it?
“Well, if it’s Leo, you can do it if you
try.”(Kent)
“I understand, I’ll do my best.”(Leo)
Yes, for now practicing is the only thing
I can do after all.
Thus, after about 3 days, I’m able to run
using non-attribute magic.
I was surprised to be able to learn it so
fast, and so was grandfather.
When you learn it, the training menu
changes.
In the morning, I had sword practice with
grandfather, and in the afternoon, I practiced using non-attribute magic until
finally conducting a whole marathon with it.
When moving using non-attribute magic, you
have to be conscious of the magic all the time, so you end up getting much more
tired than usual.
Lately, I’m so tired at night that I can
do magic training for only about 10 minutes. Talking to Sherry has been my only
consolation for that harsh training…
She seemed frustrated at first, but she
ended up being worried about my body.
Geez, Sherry is always so cute, it can’t
be helped.
This way, I endure special training
everyday with Sherry as the only support for my heart…
