Section 1 (Reincarnation・Enrolment in the Academy)
I breathed in and out slowly.
A low visual point and small hands.
I felt sick from the memory integration that started immediately but I felt relieved.
Although I was confident in myself, in the event that I fail, I would die just like that; That made me feel uneasy.
Anyway, what was going on here?
In a dimly lit room, an approximately three-years-old me, was sitting on the floor.
And on the floor, a magic circle was drawn with me in the centre.
Naturally, it was not the magic circle of reincarnation I had seen in the last moments of my previous life. Or perhaps I should say, I have never seen a hexagon magic circle like this.
At each point of the hexagon, something like stones were placed respectively.
It was similar to mineral but what was it? I don’t recognise this place either.
Secondly, there were signs of people too.
There were several people behind me.
I could also hear something similar to a faint incantation.
From the fact that the magic circle was glowing slightly, they seem to be in the middle of some spell.
I was hesitating whether I should flee but I had experienced nothing bad in the memories of this body that I possessed so I decided to wait for a while.
I did not want to be suspected of strange behaviour nor to be in trouble.
[I request you to show me the power this person possesses, in the name of ——————!!]
With the man’s deep voice, the remarkably strong magic circle shone……and then the light disappeared.
The people behind me were also silent.
Eh, what was this? Failure?
The sound of soft laughter was heard, breaking the tense atmosphere.
[Hahaha, seriously? How is this even possible? Haha!]
[Gurai, stop laughing. It’s not over yet.]
[No, don’t you already know, Brother Luft. Look! No stone of any attribute has shone. This means…… it’s like that, isn’t it, father? ]
There were three people, two of them were children and they were slightly older than me.
A boy with a bad personality, who showed an evil smile on his face and a boy who looked honest.
It was difficult to tell in the dark but both of them had golden hair and blue eyes.
Foreigners? Is this a Western country? However, I have never heard of this language and some of their features are also similar to the Japanese people so I don’t know.
[……That’s right. The ritual is over. The results are out.]
The last of the three people, a man in his prime, closed the book and said in a low voice.
He was on the verge of heaving a sigh, disappointment in his tone.
[Seika has no magical power at all.]
That was my name in this life. It was in this body’s memories.
[That’s……too bad, isn’t it, father.]
[Puhahaha, hahahahaha! It’s funny. I can’t believe that the Lamprogue family, the great family of magic studies, would have someone born without magic! Brother Luft, did you know? It is the greatest failure for a magician to be without magic! Even though you have inherited our father’s blood in your veins, Seika, you are a terrible disgrace!]
These three people……who are likely my family members, are looking down on me, in disappointment and scorn.
For the first time, I was subjected to such a thing. I tilted my head.
It seems that magic is probably the power to use spells. Apparently, they are speaking to each other about how I don’t have the ability to do spells.
For a reincarnated body, a body that can recreate the structure of my soul will be automatically selected.
Inevitably, it will be similar.
And even the ability to cast spells.
I am aware of the power that flows through me.
I just don’t need to check. Or perhaps I should say……it was more than what I imagined.
I don’t have the ability to cast spells? What in the world are you talking about?
Even though this body is ———— overflowing with so much magical power.
