Chapter 5 - Let's Learn Magic (2)
Chapter 5: Let’s Learn Magic (2)
TL/ED – Enuma ID
The next day, Kim Yo-han came to the department office to apply for a leave of absence.
It was not really because he was trying to increase his part-time jobs due to Grizzly’s food money.
It was because this looked natural.
Е̌ num̃ а.і̀ḋ
Bustle bustle-
When I glanced at the other students gathered in the office to apply for a leave of absence besides me.

I could hear whispers about the professor’s death.
Well, a professor who was giving a lecture suddenly had his head fall off and died. Of course they would be anxious and not want to attend classes.
There were already rumors going around that it was a cursed university.
It was a shame to lose credits since it was a leave of absence during the semester, but there was no choice.
Е̌ n ù mа̂
Choosing a leave of absence was not only to look natural, but also to secure more time.
From now on, in order to protect himself and learn Magic, university activities were an obstacle.
And the murderer who killed the professor… I think it was an accident, not murder.
Either way, if there were someone looking for me, they would investigate the university first.

There was no need to keep attending and leave traces.
Well… ‘The culprit probably took a leave of absence to hide himself. Let’s interrogate all the students who took a leave of absence!’
Еň um̈ä
‘Oh! Let’s interrogate them all and kill them!’
If they said that, I would have nothing to say, but if I kept thinking like that in a chain endlessly, there would be no end to it, so I just decided to take a leave of absence.
I applied for a leave of absence mixed in with the other students and left the university.

Manga cafe part-time job.
It is the part-time job I am currently doing. Personally, it is a part-time job I like.

It would be a lie to say it is not tiring since it is work, but at least it is much better than loading and unloading.
The main tasks are making coffee, cooking ramen, organizing books that customers have read and left behind.
And giving warnings to couples who draw the curtains and engage in affectionate acts due to other customers’ complaints.
Personally, I do not care about kissing, but I really wonder what kind of assholes leave behind used condoms.
At least throw them in the trash can.
Also, this depends on the owner.
Ēnum á.і̂ d
When there are no customers, I can take out comic books and read them.
Honestly, this takes up a large part of what I like about it.

I think it is a typical part-time job where it is really busy when it is busy and quiet when it is quiet.
And right now, I was using that quiet time to read the Grimoire in the corner of the counter.
For some reason, the pages turned endlessly, and some pages were completely incomprehensible, but after roughly reading through it.
There were various kinds of Magic.
W̃ ё b n̊о́ ve̊ l̊ E n̈u m̂ä
The main Magic written in De Vermis Mysteriis was a system that was called ritual Magic in the Middle Ages.
You know, the kind where you draws a circular magic circle on the floor and requires a lot of preparation.
Also, ritual Magic is divided into two systems.
Demonic contracts where you directly contract with summoned demons.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
And ritual Magic that borrows the powers of gods, angels, and great names to give orders to summoned demons or Elementals and make them obey.
The latter seemed overwhelmingly better, but there were pros and cons.
Wе̃ b̃ n оv̆ е̇l̂ Еňum̄ӓ
To make an analogy, demon contracts are direct transactions with demons.
Because of that, they allow freer deals. Asking them to kill someone, or to let you use authorities governed by the demon.
Of course, demons will not work for little compensation. They want a reward in exchange for giving power.
The contractor’s soul. In demon contracts, I cannot receive any help at this time. I must protect my soul and make the contract using only my own strength.
If I make a mistake, my soul will be taken, my life will be mortgaged, and I will become a demon’s toy.
On the other hand, ritual Magic is safe.

(Of course, this is when the magical procedural preparations are done well)
Since you borrow power to summon them, demons cannot pull any nonsense. Instead, the services that demons can provide are limited.
They answer the wizard’s questions, or teach magical knowledge such as Astronomy, Astrology, and Necromancy.
Perhaps because De Vermis Mysteriis was a Grimoire written by someone from the Catholic Crusades, ritual Magic was the main focus.
I also prefer ritual Magic, so it does not matter.
…It may sound narcissistic.
Е nu m̆ȧ. і̂ ď
I am the most important person in the world.
I am learning Magic to protect myself and to live a peaceful life.

Putting my soul up as collateral and taking risks would be putting the cart before the horse.
Jingle~
At that moment, the door opened and a customer came in, and I closed the Grimoire.
Studying is studying, and since I get paid, I have to work.

A kid who looked to be roughly an elementary school student and a woman who looked like his mother came in.
“Welcome. Is it the two of you?”
“No, just one. My child has an academy class from six. I will pay in advance, so please feed him dinner at five thirty. And please also check that he properly and safely gets on the academy bus.”
“……….”

I did not panic. This was a common occurrence.
At times like this, you should not raise your voice as if you heard something absurd.
Ёñum.а̌
I spoke in a polite, gentle tone.
“Ma’am, this is not a kids cafe, but a manga cafe.”
You have to clearly state that you cannot provide such services.
“While a customer is staying, we naturally care about safety, but since this is a space used by many different people, we cannot pay extra attention to a specific individual. I am sorry.”
“What!? The cafe nearby does it, so why won’t you do it here!”
Then go to the cafe next door?

This part made me a bit curious. Why did she specifically come here.
Anyway, I said what I had to say as an employee, and now my response was to appropriately listen to the words the customer poured out.
While listening to the pouring words.
I calmly checked Grizzly’s reaction as he was currently crouched inside the counter.
“……….”
After sending the customer away and returning to my spot. I petted Grizzly’s head in a blind spot of the CCTV.
En̄ū m а̂
“Grrr~.”
I was worried he might act on his own again.

Unless I directly signal to kill…
To put it mildly, since the order not to touch unless I signaled “bite” seemed to have worked, I was relieved that he did not act on his own.
A third incident must never occur at a place where I am.
At least for now, I had to be cautious.
Е̌ ñ ūm а
I checked articles about the professor incident on my phone.
What I am doing now is that kind of game.
The side trying to find and the side trying to hide.
Just looking at it like this, they seem equal, but overwhelmingly, the hiding side, me, is at an advantage.

The accident was caused by Grizzly, and at best, the greatest evidence they could find would be.
The coincidence that I was at the scene of the first and second incidents.
Е n̄ ŭm̂ а
There is no need to do stupid things like “to confuse the investigation, I will have Grizzly cause another murder.”
There is no need to engage in a battle of wits itself.
I just need to quietly hide myself and quietly spend time.
A quiet cafe with no customers.
Srrrk, srrrk, the sound of turning book pages resonated.
Yo-han’s black eyes calmly devour the knowledge of the Grimoire.

The lecture hall where the professor was murdered.
A calm-looking woman with black hair.
Shin Si-on, Team Leader of Team 3 of the Agency for Paranormal Response, examined the scene while receiving a report from a subordinate agent.
“What happened with the body sent to forensics?”
“Yes, about that… they say nothing came out.”
W̄ е̌b n̆ о̊ v̆ е̊l Ĕṅ ǔm̊ä
“Nothing?”
As Si-on frowned, the female agent hurriedly added.

“Yes, I mean, minor fingerprints were found, but there were no traces at all of the being that directly killed the victim.”
“It seems to be the type that doesn’t leave traces.”
Si-on quietly brought her hand to her lips and pondered while looking at the bloodstains on the floor.
“…Where is Team Leader Park investigating?”
Еn ů m̂å
“Well, since a professor died. He said graduate students are suspicious, so he went to investigate those people.”
A haphazard investigation of the “let’s catch the culprit!” type. But….
“Given the situation, that is one method.”
While continuing the investigation, the agent spoke with a sigh of relief.

“Still, it is a relief. No more people have died.”
Bizarre incidents that occurred consecutively in places full of people. There was tension, thinking this university might have already become a playground for a murderous wizard. Fortunately, nothing else had happened.
Ѐ n u m̊а̀ .ĩd̃
…However, Si-on stated firmly.
“No, this is the worst case.”
“Yes?”
“They are not being swept along by Magic. They are trying to control Magic.”
Si-on realized her mistake and smiled apologetically at the frightened agent.
“I am sorry. It is just my imagination.”

However, questions still lingered in Si-on’s mind.
For someone who had obtained the power to kill people without being discovered, it was far too quiet.
That quietness felt frightening.
“…What on earth are they planning, and what are they doing?”
Si-on brought her hand to her lips and muttered quietly to herself.

And at that time.
Kim Yo-han, in order to test whether it would really work at least once.

Was writing a list of tools needed to perform Magic.
It differed depending on the Magic to be performed, but if he picked out the items that were absolutely necessary-
A brazier, an incense burner, Holy Water, a Holy Water sprinkler, and a magically enchanted dagger to be used as a multipurpose tool.
-Those were five items.
W ѐ bnоv̈ ë l̃ Е ṅu̇ḿå
“…There are really a shit ton of preparation tools.”
Anyway, as he was reading the book to prepare step by step since he had decided to try it, he doubted his own eyes.
[A pottery bowl to be used when making incense or preparing ingredients works best if it is a pottery bowl made directly by the wizard.]
His two eyes blinked on their own.

“…What?”
‘What… directly? I cannot buy it?’
Е̂.n̄ ũ m а̇..і̂d̃
A deep sigh flowed out from within him.
“Haa…….”
And then, that very weekend.
[Children and families! Exciting pottery experience!]
“Children~ friends~ everyone! Thank you so much for coming to our pottery workshop this time! Then shall we all happily make our own pretty bowls together~!”
“Wooooow~! Let’s make them!”

The clear voice of a young female pottery instructor welcoming the participants with a bright smile rang out.
And with an excess of professional spirit, she stretched out her hand even to non-child participants to take care of everyone who had joined, speaking in a cheerful voice.
“Now~ even those in the back, do not be shy!”
The only adult male at a children’s event!
Receiving the gaze of all the guardians and children at once, he lowered his eyes weakly and quietly replied.
“Yes… let’s make them….”
