So we lived with Isela for a few weeks.

Every morning until evening, Arna was tormented by Isela.

At first, I thought I wanted to join in, but Isella’s attacks got stronger as time went on, so I felt fortunate that I was young.

“Sister, are you okay?”

“Yes… .”

Another fortunate thing is that, like walking a dog all day and putting it to sleep, Arna falls asleep every day from exhaustion without even thinking about sexual desires.

So, I thought I knew why Isella came to my house.

I left sleeping Arna in the room and went to Isela, who was drinking tea alone in the living room.

“Thank you. Ms. Isela.”

“What are you thankful for?”

“You put my sister to sleep every day.”

Isella smiled and poured me some tea as well.

“Are you doing well? I decided to take care of it, but I was busy worrying only about Arna.”

“Yes, I am doing some exercise… I am trying to get used to magic by using it several times.”

“You’re doing well.”

Isella took a sip of her tea and tapped the table.

“Then, shall we go outside for a moment?”

“Yes? Now?”

“The only time we have is now.”

I’ll have to look after Arna again in the morning. I woke up right away.

“Yes.”

I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but if there’s an opportunity to learn something, it’s right to seize the opportunity instead of skipping it.

Isella came out and looked at me with her arms crossed.

“What magic did you practice?”

“First of all… I mainly practiced recovery magic and protection magic.”

Since I am not a wizard, I used it lightly and practiced first what would be helpful in the fight.

Especially when I fought Carmene last time, I was so helpless, as if my body had been completely stripped. After that, I thought that there was a way to protect myself with magic, even just for a little while.

“Hmm, that’s a good idea. Do you want to give it a try?”

“Yes.”

I created a magic shield right on my arm.

It was a small protective spell, but I used my magic power to make it as strong as possible.

“Small.”

“This is still the limit.”

If your body grows larger, the amount of magical energy you can utilize will also increase. Then this wall can also grow bigger.

Isella nodded and picked up Arna’s bow that was standing next to the house.

Are you trying to shoot that thing?

“Try to block it. I’ll hit it exactly, so don’t move for no reason.”

“Ah, yes!”

Let’s not be scared. With Isella’s skills, there’s no way she wouldn’t be able to hit the arrow unless she was intentionally trying to kill me.

I saw Isella holding out her magic shield and aiming her bow.

It won’t break through… ?

The moment I was nervous, an arrow flew right at me, and without a moment of surprise, the arrow stuck in my shield.

“Kaaak!”

“Be quiet. Arna, I will wake up.”

“Ugh, yes.”

What, it was pierced.

The arrow pierced my shield and pierced my arm. Fortunately, there was only a slight scratch on the surface of the skin.

Isella came to me who was lying down.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes.”

“Then try treating that wound with magic.”

Did you shoot to hurt her on purpose? really… .

He was immediately cured using magic.

Healing my body with my magic is somewhat inefficient, and since I just used up a lot of magic to create the shield, the treatment efficiency was a little low.

“Hmm, you’re good.”

“Yes… Are you trying to check this?”

“Yes, I guess you practiced a lot.”

Isella held out her hand to me.

“Recovery is a holy type magic. I don’t think you followed what Arna did?”

“Yes? ah… .”

I tried doing whatever came to mind without thinking about it, but it seems I had unknowingly imitated the magic I received from Elena.

“Uh… I see.”

“What are you doing without even knowing what you’re doing?”

I shrugged my shoulders and smiled shyly.

Anyway, if you are a holy type, you will need the power to use holy relics, so you can just continue like this.

As I stood up holding Isella’s outstretched hand, I felt a numbness in the arm and torso on the side where I had made the shield.

“Go in and rest. I shouldn’t push my body any further.”

“Yes. Am I doing well?”

“Yes. Just do it as is.”

It wasn’t a big deal, but I was proud to have received Isella’s approval anyway.

I went back into the house and went to Arna’s side. When I got into bed, Arna opened her eyes and hugged me.

“What did you do?”

“I practiced with Isela.”

“Ugh… .”

Arna patted my back and quickly fell asleep again.

It wasn’t long before I fell asleep in Arna’s arms.

–

The next morning Isela was not home.

“Huh? Where did your aunt go?”

There wasn’t much to talk about yesterday… When you said you only had time now, where did you mean you were going?

Without Isella for the first time in a while, Arna’s expression slowly began to brighten. It seems like it’s been quite a difficult time.

I held Arna’s hand.

I don’t know what happened, but I was given freedom.

“Would you like to visit my sister’s village?”

Cheshire once said he would do research using my blood. I haven’t been able to pay attention to training, but I don’t know if there will be any results if this much time has passed.

Arna also hopes that I grow up again quickly, so it would be good to at least check with Cheshire to see how much research has been done.

“Okay then!”

Arna’s expression brightened as she rested for the first time in a long time.

That’s how we left home.

Thanks to the smaller body, it was quite nice to be able to move quickly while being carried by Arna.

Of course, Arna carried me, who was as big as her, on her back… Should I say I feel less sorry? Anyway, it’s nice to be able to rely on Arna without any burden.

We came out of the forest in an instant at a much faster speed than if we had walked side by side.

–

“Oh, you came at the right time. I was at a loss as to how to tell the story.”

Cheshire greeted us warmly, saying he had been waiting for us when we came. Looking at the expression, it looks like something has been achieved.

“There is something I would like you to test.”

Cheshire immediately brought out a vial containing a light green liquid.

“What is this?”

It’s a color that looks unsettling.

My common sense tells me that it is not a color normally found in normal drinks.

“We analyzed the flow of magical power in the warrior’s blood. I noticed that it was changing into a certain shape over time, and Larissa said that was the warrior’s original magic.”

“Yes?”

So Larissa came out of the inner room.

“Jihu I know the magic best. Haha, it’s still so familiar, like I can hold it in my hand.”

“Ah. I see Because you kept experimenting with magic on me?”

“Uh. Right?”

At those words, Arna’s sharp gaze turned to Larissa.

“That’s… I’m really sorry. Hehehe… . Anyway, give it a try. Something interesting is going to happen!”

Larissa hurriedly spoke and offered me some medicine.

“Yes, I don’t know if it will be fun, but you will see some changes.”

“Nothing bad will happen, right?”

Arna was worried because the two were so confident.

I am also worried. How on earth do you have such confidence when you can’t even explain exactly what effect it will have?

“Ha, haha… There are plenty of neutralizers, so you don’t have to worry. Anyway, since it is a medicine made specifically for the warrior’s body, it would be meaningful if the warrior himself tasted it.”

Cheshire’s tone became quite cautious.

Anyway, if you don’t believe, you can’t go any further… I received the vial with the optimistic thought that nothing bad would happen.

And without further ado, I drank the medicine right away.

The tasteless liquid flowed down my throat, and at the same time, I felt my body getting hot.

“Do you feel something?”

“I feel like my body is getting hot?”

“Oh… … .”

Oh no, what is this?

Cheshire seemed to note in his notebook that my body was getting hot, and at the same time, I suddenly felt like my body was getting heavier.

“Ugh… !”

“Jihoo!”

And in an instant, my eye level, where I could see Arna’s thighs, was aligned with hers.

“Ji, Jihoo… It got bigger again.”

“That’s right!”

After succeeding, Cheshire began to speak confidently.

“When I heard that the hero had become smaller, I analyzed the flow of magical power in the hero’s body. I figured out what kind of power was originally injected into the magical power and created a medicine by reversing the flow. Since I made it according to the warrior’s magic, I was confident that it would be effective.”

Because I was so confident, I couldn’t even speak clearly out of fear of failing.

Anyway, I grew big again, and all the clothes I wore as a child were torn.

Larissa was staring at me with startled eyes, and Cheshire was smiling as if nothing had occurred to him.

So Arna hugged me and covered my body.

“Hey, Cheshire! Jihoo, some clothes to wear… .”

“Ah, yes!”

Cheshire finally came to his senses and hurriedly got his clothes and gave them to me.

Maybe it’s because the clothes are worn by big guys, but even when I’m older, I feel like a child stealing an adult’s clothes.

I tightened my waist belt, folded the sleeves and bottom of my pants, got dressed roughly, and saw that my body had grown bigger again.

“Will this get smaller again over time?”

“First, I tried to make it by completely changing the body constitution. It doesn’t feel like a layering on the surface, but rather a way to completely change it by affecting the current horsepower. To put it simply, the body has completely grown like this.”

I don’t know how, but it means that now this is my body again.

“I will research a little more and establish it so that it can be made easily. Larissa, I think we succeeded anyway.”

“Sure.”

Cheshire was quite proud of his accomplishments, and Larissa also smiled brightly.

However, the one who looked the happiest among them was Arna.

“Jihoo… I’m back again.”

Arna was hugged to me. I felt happy that I was old enough to hug Arna properly again.

I felt it more clearly as I was covering Arna’s back.

“If the power of the holy relics and the power of magic come together, you can always be in the best condition.”

Cheshire smiled happily as he looked at us hugging him.

“We will prepare so that you can continue to enjoy this magic even if you live for a longer period of time.”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you… .”

Arna let out a slightly trembling voice as she was hugged by me.

Arna didn’t let me go as I grew bigger again, just as if I had come back to life.

I think the hard work I’ve been through these past few weeks has probably had a big impact.

Soon Arna grabbed my arm and left the store.

“Jihoo, let’s go.”

The place Arna headed towards, frantically dragging me along, was a village inn.

In the meantime, we had no choice but to do nothing with each other.

Arna’s steps became several times more lively than when I said she was cute when she got smaller.

After all, bigger is better than small.

Because there is so much more you can do.
