Chapter 71
"...Well, yeah. It has something to do with my magic…." Sirius rubbed his nose and said. One of his magic has an enchant-type effect for training purposes.
"You mean extended magic?" The blond-haired sword princess was impressed by this.
After all, in the entire Loki Familia, only Ais and Sirius can use extended magic.
But, Ais has never heard of any extended magic capable of creating difficult situations for training purposes. She only heard of magic allowing adventurers to leapfrog monsters.
"It's not just extended magic, I'll show it now. Anyone willing to give me their hand?" Sirius felt that direct demonstration was better than explanation.
"Me! Me!" The little angel Tiona responded cooperatively and was about to stand before him.
However, Ais was one step faster and put her soft hands in front of Sirius. She looked just like a puppy asking its owner for a handshake.
"..." Sirius glanced at the paused Tiona, then glanced at Ais's beautiful hands and hesitated for a while.
Then, he took Ais's hand because it was closer to him, not because Ais was more beautiful than Tiona.
"Excuse me…" After speaking this, Sirius gently touched Ais's wrist.
"Ugh, Ais-san's hands! Even I haven't shaken it yet…." A certain yuri-elf was jealous of this scene and whimpered with a handkerchief in her mouth.
'Oh? What an interesting reaction…' Sirius caught sight of Lefiya's jealousy and smiled mischievously.
Jealous Lefiya looked stupid and cute, prompting him to bully her. But, now was not the time for such things.
He quickly dispelled any unnecessary ideas and quickly activated his magic. A small blue magic circle appeared on his palm and soon transferred into Ais's wrist.
One by one, glowing blue magic particles gathered around Ais's wrist and condensed into a virtual ring.
Gradually, the virtual ring began to shrink and shrink until it completely overlapped with Ais's skin.
When Sirius saw this scene, he let go of Ais's wrist. Then, he fully activated the magic. A virtual constellation on Ais's wrist merged into her arm.
Soon, Ais felt some changes in her arm. She couldn't maintain calm because she had difficulty moving her right arm.
As a well-trained 'First Class Adventurer', Ais has good control over her body. Therefore, she quickly noticed the pressure on her arm.
Not only the wrist area but her entire right arm is being squeezed inexplicably by some force, making it difficult to move.
Therefore, her right arm suddenly hung down due to the lack of control.
Ais used her left hand to hold the right arm to maintain posture.
"Ais-san, what's wrong with you!?" Lefiya exclaimed after noticing Ais's strangeness.
"My right hand… can't move…." Ais spoke while trying to gain control of her hand.
"Ehhhh???" Tiona and the others didn't know what was happening and were somewhat skeptical.
"Sirius…you didn't hurt Ais, right?" After seeing Ais's right hand completely disabled and hanging down unnaturally, all the girls had such thoughts. After all, although they trust him, verifying such things is necessary.
"Nope. I just squeezed the space around Ais's arm. Her arm is very difficult to move now." Sirius calmly explained.
His magic - Astral Confine, is a control/confinement magic. When it is released, a virtual constellation map appears as a prerequisite. When the constellation entirely unfolds, the magic is successfully activated.
The essence of this magic is not just a simple 'confinement'.
It uses the power of the stars to distort and compress the space around the affected area, thereby restricting the movement.
If a target is in the center of the virtual constellation, the pulling force will be highly magnified, making it difficult to move.
Stars have great power. Therefore a virtual constellation also has enough force to restrict a person's movements.
Without fully understanding cosmic knowledge, it is difficult for anyone to escape its pull.
After a quarter of an hour, the effect of his magic subsided, and Ais regained control of her arms.
"Hey, Ais, how do you feel?" After seeing that the magic circle on Ais's wrist had dimmed, Tiona couldn't wait to ask.
"My arm feels sore…." Ais truthfully answered.
She felt that her right arm was placed in a different dimension before, bringing tremendous pressure to it. It was tough for her to move it in such a condition.
"Sore!?" After hearing this, Tione felt surprised.
It is well-known that first-class adventurers have extraordinary physical abilities. Regular training is no use to them because they are too strong for it to be effective.
Normal exercise has little to no effect on their overall strength.
Therefore, most first-class adventurers only train for a while daily as a warm-up and go to the dungeon for exploration and exercise. Fighting against monsters is way better than training alone.
Although they gain slight improvement after each return, it is still better than nothing.
But after looking at Ais's sore arms, Tione couldn't help but feel curious.
"Uhm, Sirius? Can you apply this magic to me? I also to experience what Ais' felt." Tiona's thoughts were similar to her sister, but she was a bit more active. Tiona wrapped her arms around Sirius's body and asked with an innocent smile.
"Alright, but let me warn you in advance. This time, I will apply my magic to your whole body." Sirius nodded and reminded her.
"No problem. That's even better…." Tiona was happy to agree.
"Sirius! I want to try it too~" Tione asked.
"Uhm, Sirius, I want it as well…" Lefiya hesitantly requested.
'Hmmm…' After hearing the last voice, Sirius glanced at a certain yuri-elf in surprise.
He wanted to complain. Ais, Tiona, and Tione are desperate because of the lack of progress after reaching level 5. But, Lefiya is still level 3 and has yet to unleash her full potential. And, as a mage, there is no need for her to exercise her body like the other three.
'Should I play a prank on her, so that she can't get out of bed tomorrow?' Sirius thought of some pranks but decided not to do them after some contemplation.
Not only the three of them, but Ais also wanted to have a whole body experience. Sirius had no opinion on this because he could gain their goodwill in this process.
