The Magus of Genesis

Episode 15 Fourth Elements





"There is the idea of ​​attribute,"

I drew a picture with a stone on a stone board for the first time in a while and cut it out.

Writing a character with a white soft stone on the surface of a huge stone board brought to the back of the classroom is almost the same as writing on a blackboard with chalk. You can easily erase it with a cloth containing water, but I have not used it in this special classroom. It is because the students in the field are better to remember.

However, I had to learn it by myself first.

"The idea that everything in this world is made up of a combination of several attributes. Among them, the four basic attributes are particularly called four major attributes. It is fire, earth, water, wind. "

Describing the picture with a burning flame, a hard stone, a dripping water, a picture of a leaf scattering dancing in the wind, every student of the student had a question mark on his face.

"For example, living things are the easiest to understand. Blood circulates in the body, breathing inhales the wind and breathes out, the body eventually comes back to the ground, and in the chest the fire of life is lit. Whichever one lacks, the living thing will die. "

"Are our bodies made of soil?"

In such a case, the first thing to wonder is sig.

"If you divide broadly into pieces, it is not soil itself, just as belonging to the earth. Just like blood is not water itself. "

"In the past, I learned from Nina. Three states of matter, is not it? "

It was Murasaki who first came to me there. Should I call it an elf to store wisdom wisdom? She has a very good memory. Not only did I remember well, but also the speed at which I gained that knowledge was very fast.

"Let's go, what is it?"

Rin will twist his head though he should have taken the same lesson. From the expression, it seems that Sigu and Yuki do not remember at all.

"Visible like stone and soil, it is solid that there is shape. It looks like water but the liquid is not liquid. It is gas that there is no invisible shape and air like air. "

"Oh, that's easy to understand!"

- Holy shit! Of course!

"I see"

Luke and Sigu, Yuuki raised a voice of admiration to Luca, who explained politely. Luke is very good at explaining things by swallowing oneself. Perhaps, the explanation of Nina would have been more obscure.

Yeah. Solid, liquid, gas. It corresponds to soil, water and wind as it is. And fire is energy ......The power to warm and move objects. All things of the world have this four in secret. "

"Omisawa also?"

I caught a breath on Rin 's casual questions. Her idea is not bound by stereotypes at all times, it is really free. Therefore it often comes down to the essence.

Idiot. Because water is water, it is determined only for water. "

"That's not really the case."

And Sig is its true opposite. He is a true sensibility owner and has a commonsense idea. However, that is a qualification that is difficult to obtain with that. Surprisingly these two people may be a good combination.

"If you warm water that is liquid it will turn into gas vapor, if it cools it will be solid ice? That means that the water originally contained the nature of soil and wind. If you add fire to water, it becomes wind, and if you pull it in reverse, it becomes earth. ... ....To be able to withdraw, it means that there was fire in the water as well. "

Oooh. This fire and water are things like colors, not just fire or water. "

Yuuki pounds his hands.

Color

Yeah. Fire color is the color of fire, but it is not the fire itself, is it? "

「……As you can see, I do not know "

I inclined my head with Sig. Yuuki is quite distinctive in sensitivity. But she is terrible good at grasping the tips of things. I guess she understood it.

「……So, what is its color? "

It seems that explanation has followed and got bored. Sig asked with a slight frustration.

Yes please. If everything in the world is made up of a combination of attributes, I thought that magic is also so. "

"You are...

You probably noticed. Mr. Purple raised his voice and looked round the classmates.

Yes please. Actually, you guys have taken it to some extent with attributes in mind. "

Elves in the forest, deep with the soil.

Lucos Centaur that encloses the grassland and traces the smell of the wind.

Mermaid living in the sea and water.

Lizardmen living in volcanoes and getting close to the fire.

As I am a fire dragon I can not use magic about cold at all, I felt that the four attributes are deeply involved in magic properly for a long time. It was absurd until I got my idea about Rin Lin.

"Today I will try to measure the properness of four attributes of you"

* * *

"I'm ready, Teacher"

- Yeah, please. I am saved, Amata. "

I fold words of labor to Amata, which folds correctly.

Once a young boy who was adorable like a girl who looked exactly like Yuuki grew so quickly that she did not grow too long and turned into a fearless adolescent. Bear heavily on the pillar of the wood whether a thick and brutal arm is several times his body or not and put it in the middle of the schoolyard.

"But what are you going to use for such things?"

He had prepared several small tubs, a balance, and a fist big stone. Amatta is extremely handy with dexterity, and indeed cleverly assembles it when treating wood. Rin 's wheelchair was never broken even after asking him to make it.

"This is used for measurements. Nina, please! "

「Hmm?

When I signal Nina, I return to the form of a dragon, and I set up the vine which I gave to purple.

"Fire!"

At the same time Nina muttered briefly, a flame rose from the palm of her hand and rose as high as a pillar.

"Well, I guess this is around. Yuuki, hold it at the hand position of Nina "

- Sure.

With no wings floating with magic, I lifted the thorny vine up to the edge of the flame of Nina and ask Yuuki to measure the length. Then it gets off to the ground, counting the number of thorns counts the length of the flame.

Yes please. Somewhere as much as fifty-six centimeters. "

"Nina teacher ......TuesdayFive hundred sixty ... .... "

I record with the brush on the wood board that Luke got.

"Next is water."

I put the wooden bucket at the foot of Nina and wait.

Water.

Instantly, water overflowed from her palm.

"Oops……"

I take it in a tub so that it will not spill it.

"Well, eight hours ......Where are 20? "

The trough makes height and width of ten centimeters at a time. In other words, it will be 1,000 cubic centimeters if it is full. One centimeter every time water collects. Below that is the eyesight properly.

WaterEight hundred and twenty ... ... "

"Well, next is the wind."

I put a leaf of trees on the palm of hands and hand it out in front of Nina.

There's a breeze.

Winds blow from her fingertips, skipping leaves.

"Thousand six hundred perfect"

Later from the feet of her, let's leave the distance the leaves flew away. It was hard to avoid losing sight of the leaves.

"At the end this is this"

It was surprisingly easy to make a balance. Hang the balance pole from the center strut and adjust it to be balanced and hang the basket that becomes the balance plate. If you place a stone on one side of the pan and place an empty tub on the other, it is complete.

I was worried a lot how I measured the soil attributes. Tricks such as Nina and Murasaki to grow plants from places with nothing, there is no example that only elves could do. However, it seemed impossible to create soil. It is strange that it is impossible to produce soil but water, fire and wind can be done easily, but there is no choice but to do.

"Stone"

So I came up with weight.

Gravity is the power of the earth. Magic that increases weight will be a category of earth.

As Nina casts a spell a passage, the balance tilts greatly.

I will put water in the other trough so that the balance balances.

"Four hundred places"

Because the empty pail and the stone are balanced, the pouring water becomes the amount that the stone gained weight as it is. Since one liter of water is almost one kilogram, weighs by the amount of water.

"That, Nina, you little disgusting me, is not it?"

Yuuki gave a loud voice, looking at the numbers recorded by Luke.

"No, there is not much point in the difference between the numerical values ​​of other attributes. I made it to be about the same value, but the bigger one is not that good. "

For example, it is like comparing the grip strength and the numerical value of the width jump.

It is understandable by this that it is impossible for students to be good at satisfaction.

"Now, measure in the order you like. Fire, me, water and wind are Nina, soil is measured by Amata. Spells are now only one section each, as Nina has said. "

Actually, it seems that the person who used magic without spells seems easy to understand the original ground power, but there are students who do not activate magic in that case. So I decided to do it with a rule that only a passage.

"Well then, I will do it!

It was Lin that came first to me.

"Hi!"

From the palm raised by her at the most, a flame rises with a loud noise. Although it is a pretty cute fire compared to the flame that Nina issued ... ...

"Ninety……No, it is one hundred. "

Still, a meter of flame stretched out of her hand. I knew that we could use the magic of flame, but it certainly was not here. It was a mermaid living in the water, so I thought that I was not good at flames, but it was quite a good record.

Thank you very much

What I came next was Luka with a slightly nervous looking face.

"Tue ... ...!"

A small flame hurts from the palm of her hand, just like scoops of water. It is about 50 centimeters in length, but it is really stable as it is stable, unlike the flames of heavily flickering phosphorus.

"Well, I will go ....Fire "

The third is purple. A flame of about 30 cm is blown out from the pin and the extended index finger. Even the same elves are quite different from Nina. Although I do not know whether it is an individual difference or a difference in the time when I practiced magic.

Or, what is the most important thing about phosphorus, which is closely related to water.

"Measure your elder brother, measure it!"

When I was worried, Yuuki jumped over. Because I do this kind of gesture, I still can not wipe out my consciousness as a small child. Well, in fact, the back is also quite low.

"Fire!"

From the palm of Yuuki, the flames beat vigorously. Despite intense momentum like jet injection, the fire is stable. Even if you use exactly the same spells, there are individual differences in the shape and momentum of the fire as well as the length.

Measuring it, the length is ninety centimeters. It was regrettable that it did not reach phosphorus.

"Did she lose to Rin?"

I tried to push back Yuuki who is going to regret so much, and the last thing that came was Sig. He is not serious at all times and holds the palm of his hand.

「……Fire "

It lives in the volcano, is familiar with the fire, and is practicing every morning. I predict that a big fire will come out.

However.

Contrary to expectations there appeared there was a tiny small flame as fingertips.
