Isekai Yururi Kikuo~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer

Chapter 41

In the end, I have decided to accept the various items in the cave that were presented to me as a reward.
Still, to consider those things a garbage……
I was in shock after looking at the《Infinite Storage》item list……
Tens kinds of seaweed and shells used as medicine materials. Even if the shell couldn’t be used for medicine, it could be used as an ornament for accessories.
Fish bones, scales, and carapaces that could be processed into arms and tools. There were also some stone-like materials, but those are actually natural stones.
There were some scratches ones, but there was quite a lot of pearls~
Only a few percent of the garbage was『Unusable』.
Despite receiving a significant amount of rewards, we would also receive magic guidance.
The mermaids took it as if we had disposed of their garbage, it seems they gladly accepted to teach us magic.
We have stayed a night at the Blue Waters Shrine that day, and it has been decided that we will get instructed in the water magic tomorrow.

Tomorrow.
We have come offshore to receive the instructions.
Because we have a lot of magical powers, after all. We have decided to receive the instructions far away from the Blue Waters Shrine in case we make a mistake.
And surprisingly, the one who is going to instruct us is the Chief of Mermaids, Gard-san himself! Gard-san came personally.
Gard-san apparently a person who teaches many mermaid children and it seems that even Miko Himesama learned magic under him.
An ideal person to instruct us.

Gard-san starts teaching us immediately once we got above the surface.

「First of all, there are two ways to exercise magic. That is to manipulate and produce. I have heard that Takumi-sama is able to use wind magic. When you are using magic on the surface, that is manipulating. Earth magic is the same. But, water magic and fire magic have to be produced first. Let’s assume first that you are using water magic in a waterless location」

I received guidance first, but…… I see~
So it’s because I tried to use water magic the same way I use wind magic. The power was low because of that.

「Therefore, if you don’t produce it first, Takumi-sama will end up using water magic with the wind magic method」

A precise identification of the problem.
I explained my circumstances to Gard-san yesterday so he could estimate why I am not able to use it.

「Conversely, trying to use wind magic underwater would not work well, would it?」「Yes, that’s right」

It became really simple after hearing the reason.
Well, right. I’m using wind magic in places where the wind drifts and water magic in places with no water. The amount of necessary magical power is different.
When I used water magic the last time, a fist-sized water besha… only a little came out.

「《Water Pillar》」

I try to cast a spell as a test and a pillar of water shoots out of the sea.
Un, it’s possible to use water magic in places with water just like the wind magic.

「Magnificent. If Takumi-sama keeps in mind the producing step while on the surface, you shouldn’t have any problems with water magic」
「Yes, let’s see. Since I have grasped the trick, I will give it a try on the ground later」

Because there is water nearby.
Once we return to the ground, let’s find a waterless place and practice.
Since my problem was settled, it’s Allen’s and Elena’s turn next.

「I have heard that Allen-sama and Elena-sama haven’t used magic yet. Therefore, I have decided to tell them about the flow of magical power first」
「By all means. Allen, Elena, come here」
「I will borrow your hands. I will pour my magical power now」

Gard-san takes Allen’s and Elena’s hands and sends in his magical power.
I see. You can pour your magical power into your partner to let him become aware of magical power……
