Ann left a little while ago, so I wonder what I should do with the remaining time.

My ice magic proficiency had already been determined, and as I was thinking about whether there was anything else I needed to do, I remembered one thing I had forgotten.

‘.. If you want to use ice magic and electric magic together… it must be a double chant..’

In order to utilize the power of the combination, double chanting must be possible, but I forgot about that.

However, the good news is that electric magic is the most powerful when used separately, so if you learn it tomorrow, you will be fine.

‘Then let’s practice floating magic and double chanting.’

First of all, ice magic.

“Glacies.”

-Jjing.

I left the ice sphere that had formed on my hand and looked at the pillow on the bed.

‘Thoughts.. Thoughts..’

“Superpero.”

-Jiying..

-Pee it.

As soon as the pillow surfaced, the ice sphere disappeared.

“Of course, it’s probably not right to do it all at once..”

It cannot be done ‘all at once’.

But I still have 105 mana.

“Glacies.”

“Superpero.”

“Glacies.”

“Superpero.”

….

After doing it about 40 times, my head started to hurt.

-Strong…

“Awesome..”

Due to the sudden headache, I couldn’t even think about why.

“Did I use up all my mana..”

If you suddenly feel this kind of pain while using magic, there is no other answer.

There are no side effects.

“Ha…”

It would have been nice if I had succeeded after many attempts, but I could not.

“Now that this has happened, let’s look at the status window again.”

Since I used magic to the point where I used up all my mana, I wonder how much my mastery would have increased.

‘Status Window’

[Tiring. Open the status window.]

“Huh?”

My skill level improved much better than I expected.

Just by using magic, your Heavenly Talent, Mana, Stamina, and Lesser Magic increase at the same time.

“Good..”

After looking at the status window, I smiled happily and closed my eyes for a moment, and the headache got better.

“Anyway.. I think I forgot something..”

I’m sure you must have been thinking about something when you went to the restaurant.

I looked at the clock and it was 9 o’clock.

They won’t let you go around after 10 o’clock, so you have to think about it before then…

“Ah! mother!’

I sat up and raised my upper body.

When he saw that his mother was not in the restaurant, he went to check on her to see what was going on.

”.. Let’s go now.“

I had something to say, so I got down on the bed and left the room.

however..

”Where is your mother’s room..“

I guess I’ll have to find Anne again.

***

”Ugh.. how many hours did I sleep..“

Sorut checked his watch and then looked at his left shoulder, which had a bandage wrapped around it.

The left shoulder was stained red with blood leaking out again.

Still, Berador was safe, so it didn’t matter.

The moment I put on the pajamas that were folded next to me and was about to go out to get something to eat.

-smart.

”Mom, can I come in?“

”Uh.. uh..?“

-Kkeee..

Berador came in.

”Now, wait a minute.. Ugh..“

”Mother..?“

While he was hastily extending his arm, he felt pain in his left arm and stopped for a moment, which made Berador look at him with worried eyes.

”Are you okay?“

”Of course. Did you see that I was sick?“

I erased the signs of pain again so I wouldn’t worry for no reason.

In reality, it doesn’t matter as long as you don’t move too hard.

You may feel a little pain.

However, despite saying that, the worry did not disappear from Veradoro’s face.

”I have something to say to my mother.“

”Hmm? If so, just wait a moment.“

It worked out just fine.

I tried to eat something, but I was bored if I ate alone, so I thought it would be nice to have tea with Berador, so I pulled the string next to the bed.

-smart.

”This is the maid Trista. What did you call me for?“

”Bring refreshments and tea from the restaurant.“

”Okay.“

”Berador Come here and see.“

”What happened twenty…“

I hugged Berador who came close and stroked his head.

”Your hair is a little messy.“

”Ah.. my father..“

”Geoff? What happened?“

”Well… I learned magic.“

I was really happy to be able to talk to Berador in this way.

Perhaps because my son was born late, I especially wanted to cherish him even more.

When I was patting my head like that.

-Sniff.

Berador suddenly began to smell.

‘What does my body smell like… Ah!’

Berador looked me in the eyes and spoke.

”…Mother..“

”…“

”Is this really okay?“

”…“

”It smells like blood.“

”… It’s okay, you don’t have to worry..“

”Is it because of me?“

”No.“

But I accidentally averted my eyes.

Habit of lying.

”…Mother..“

”..Why are you doing that?“

”… Maybe..“

Berador was biting his lip and moving his eyes here and there when he stopped and was about to speak.

-smart.

”I brought you refreshments. Can I come in? “

”… Come in. “

Trista is back.

”Then enjoy it.“

”.. Thank you.“

-Kkeee..

The door closed again and silence fell for a moment.

”..Let’s talk over tea.“

”Okay.“

***

A little while ago, I was truly worried.

Would it be okay if I told my mother about my immortality?

Wouldn’t it be okay to share this ability with your mother?

When I first entered the room, there was a slightly fishy smell.

However, I thought it was an illusion… The closer I got to my mother, the darker it became.

And when I was held in my mother’s arms, the bandage on my left shoulder was visible.

Bandages stained red.

And just as I was about to ask her if she wanted immortality, the maid came back and was now having tea with my mother.

”… So what did you want to say? “

”.. The reason I came was because I wanted to ask you something.“

”Please?“

”.. I want to train in swordsmanship.“

”… What?“

A world where men and women are reversed.

Even if men fought, most of them were wizards.

It’s not that there are no men who use swordsmanship, but most of them are adventurers, and no matter how hard they try, they only end up at C rank.

However, in order to use the magic I want to use most appropriately, I need swordsmanship.

Superconductivity, a concept that existed on Earth.

Putting that magic on the sword.

”With a man’s body…“

”You can.“

”.. It must be quite difficult..“

”I am prepared.“

”.. What is the reason?“

Same question as my father.

When asked why I want to have power, I answered like this.

”I want to protect something precious.“

”… I see..“

When my mother heard those words, her hand that was lifting the glass stopped for a moment.

”Can I start next week?“

”Yes. Good.“

”Yes. Then let’s skip that.“

My mother, who was sitting in front, moved her chair to the seat next to me.

He hugged my upper body, stroked my head, and spoke.

”And what did you mean to say earlier?“

”..!“

”Isn’t this a different story?“

”.. Yes..“

My mother was quicker than I thought.

Or maybe I was too obvious.

”What was it?“

”… I… have the ability to become immortal…“

”… What?“

”Do you remember when I started talking a few days ago?“

I told my mother almost everything except that I reincarnated that day.

And then.

”You gained immortality?“

”Yes.“

”Why did you give it to you?“

”.. They didn’t even tell me that.“

”Then why did you tell me that?“

”.. When I found out that my mother was injured, I wanted to share her immortality with you.“

I had no intention of telling anyone about my immortality.

But when I found out that my mother was injured and sick, I even thought about sharing her immortality.

Because we are family.

My mother was already a precious person to me.

After my last words, my mother fell silent for a while.

-Sigh.. Sigh..

He just quietly stroked my head.

I also closed my eyes and felt his touch, and I felt my body weaken.

‘..you were nervous..’

I think my mother chose this method to help me feel it and calm down a bit.

”Thank you for thinking of me that way.“

After remaining like that for a while, my mother opened her mouth and made a decision.

“Do whatever you want.”

“..eh?”

To become immortal means to live even if you don’t want to live.

Many people felt that it was a curse because they could not die even if they wanted to, but my mother spoke calmly.

“If I don’t buy it and you don’t buy it too, you won’t feel lonely.”

He held both my cheeks and made eye contact.

“If I can stay with this mother instead of leaving her alone, it would be better if she were immortal.”

Why?

Tears began to flow.

“Ugh..”

-Ugh.. Ugh..

My mother continued to stroke my head.

Until the tears stop.
