The Seven World Of Fantasy

Chapter 40: The Past of Momo Part 2

"Master? The master?" Call me.

Once again I went to the place where they were camped out secretly, so that the villagers would not suspect me. But as soon as I got there, I only found the tents of the two of them empty.

"Master?" Again I make sure.

It's been three days since I met them. From then on I talked to them a lot, and they became closer to me.

Their appearance style is indeed arguably scary by people. But after we got to know each other, it turned out that they were not as bad people as they seemed.

The day I was saved when I fell in the river. Then they secretly cleaned the source of the village spring which began to be polluted with magic. Also, they treated me with affection.

I can't remember the last time I was treated like that. So, I like her a lot.

"Are they going to the ruins?" Thought.

The purpose of the two of them to this place indeed wanted to explore the ruins. They say there's something nice they want to look for in there. It's just that I can't come because it's very dangerous there.

Therefore, I asked him to teach me water magic just like when he saved me in the river. The woman happily agreed, and from yesterday I started calling out to her, Master!

"Hi, Momo. You have come apparently. Did we make you wait long enough." Call someone from behind the woods. As I looked at it, it was my master with the big-hat guy friend behind him.

"Mhmm," I shook my head. "I just arrived. Is your exploration going well?"

"Wow! Thanks for worrying about us..." The master hugged me tightly, and shook my body like a puppet.

"hee! Masteer!"

"Just calm! As long as there's a friend in a big hat there, I won't get hurt in the least!"

"Good then."

Master let me go, and lowered the bag he was wearing on his back. He opened the bag and reached into something inside.

"What is it, Master?" Askaqua.

"See this." The master took out a crystal stone and showed it to me. Unlike the crystal stone he had brought before, this time the crystal stone emitted a golden-coloured light.

"Waaaah!" I was stunned to see its beauty. "What's that?"

"His name is magic stone. This thing was dropped by an extremely powerful monster inside there. Therefore, this thing will become very valuable later."

"The monster? Inside the ruins are monsters?"

"Yes. They are so big! That's hot! Their fangs are huge and their claws are extremely sharp! Moreover, they were very fond of cat girls with blue hair like Momo!"

"Yenyaaa~"

"No, no, no. Cup cup cup. I'm just kidding, all right."

Even though he had said that he was joking, my body still did not stop trembling.

"Oh, yes. What about the magic training yesterday? Do you want to continue today?" Master diverts the conversation.

"Yes!" Answer me steadily.

"Wokay! Let's go to the waterfall!"

"Come on!"

When they're done exploring the ruins, Master will take the time to teach me the basics of witchcraft. Like breathing exercises, mana control, to cast a spell. Master said, I have the potential to become a great magician.

While we were training, the big man in the big hat would go to prepare our lunch. I couldn't believe it when I tasted his cooking.

It's yummy!

But what I still love, until now I still do not know what the names of the two of them are.

Many times I tried to ask them their names, but they never intended to tell me. Even though I was stubborn, they patiently asked me to call out by any name.

At first I felt isolated. But seeing those who were very kind to me, I gradually obeyed what they said and did not force my selfishness anymore.

The master who happily wanted to teach me magic alone was already a very good thing. Therefore, I will earnestly learn water magic in order to become like a Master!

"One more time, Momo! Water Balls!"

"Water Ball!"

The two of us unleashed magic that we had already refined. Master's water ball was huge and powerful, while my water ball was only as big as an apple and sped a few feet away.

"What's up, Momo? Yesterday you could have done better."

"I-i..." How'this? I'm ashamed to say it. "I. somewhat forgot the spell."

"Ooh, it's okay. We'll memorize it again together." The master answered very well.

Actually the Master carried a magic book on his way. Unfortunately, I can't read at all. The people in my village isolated themselves from the outside world. So our knowledge of education, medicine and agriculture is all but lagging behind.

But that didn't stop Master from trying to teach me magic. In fact, he also taught me to read and write very patiently.

"Ken-da-li-kan, si-hir..." I tried to read a sentence in the book.

"The..."

"De-ngan, just one month..."

I can read a few letters in a book. Since I had memorized the spell, I could easily remember the typeface if I forgot.

So too with writing. Master gave me an empty book so I could practice writing. The master told me to keep it as a diary as well, write down the spells I just memorized, or some of my dreams in it.

Sometimes his friends took turns to teach me, even though I thought it was a bad idea.

In. in.. in... This one master taught me many new words that I had never heard before.

"Then, this sentence is usually spoken when a couple is performing a ritual together on a beautiful night. They did..."

This..it is repeated...

"WAAA! Don't teach Momo the words you can't!" The master approached us from behind his tent. He seemed to have heard what I was being taught.

"I'm just teaching him the lines in this book." The man gave the book he had in his hand to the Master.

Then while holding the book, Master started acting strangely.

His body trembled, and he also lowered his face.

"Where are you taking.... This book...?"

The aura is so piercing! My whole body was shaking with fear. I was like. I saw an angry girlfriend this guy just told me about.

"I took it from your bag."

"STUPID!!!"

Buk up! Buk up! Buk up! Buk up! Buk up!

The master beat his friend's head very strongly using books. But the beaten one did not budge at all, and his hat did not shift in the least either.

"Basic!"

Buk up! Buk up! Buk up!

"Stalker!"

Buk up! Buk up! Buk up!

"Easter!"

Buk up! Buk up! Buk up!

I've never seen a Master this angry. Or rather, get angry to cover up his embarrassment?

"You said any book, right? So I picked up a book you read all alone in the tent."

"WHERE DO YOU KNOW!!?"

While Master continued to beat up his friend in annoyance, several hours had already passed without feeling. The master exhausted himself and finally stopped.

"Master?" Call me.

The master lay on the ground with breathless breath. He was still holding his book tightly, which was not destroyed despite being made to beat up steel.

"What did he.. read to you, Momo?" Ask Master.

"A master who tortured his slave, a girl whose love was rejected, and a very first night..."

"Stop. I beg you."

"Good, Master!"

Today the process of learning and teaching is finished early. Master told me to continue writing practice, but I wanted to show you the latest results.

Master was amazed when he saw the results of my training. He didn't believe I could learn so quickly, be it reading or writing.

Then time went on from day to week, and now it's been almost a month I've spent with them.

Their exploration of the ruins this time took longer than usual. Now they'll be in there for two days one night, or even longer. During that time, I spent alone in their camp while continuing to learn magic from Master's books.

"So, if I can use water magic, then I can also learn ice magic?" That's what I read in the magic book. "Fire magic, lightning magic, shadow magic? Can I study them all?"

Excitedly, I tried many kinds of magic that I found in the book. Some magic I can't use even though I've been struggling. Then if I'm exhausted, I'll rest for a while in Master's tent.

If not wrong, Master once allowed me to drink mana potion if my mana is almost exhausted, then after that I can continue my training again. But after I drank it more than five times, my head sometimes became dizzy and my path staggered.

Then when they returned to the camp, Master found me leaning against a tree drunk.

"eeehs... I saw a milk dragon up there~"

"Momos! Momo! What the hell is going on with you?" Master checked my situation with worry. "Hey! I told you not to put your booze in the camp!"

"I'm not a drinker."

"Then, what caused Momo to become this drunk?"

"Try smelling the scent from his mouth. It's possible that he ate poisonous mushrooms from the forest."

Master brought his face closer to mine. I can feel my closeness to the master growing.

I want to see the handsome face of the master like a prince.

"Momo, how many potions did you drink today?"

I try to remember how many sweet drinks I drink. How many? 

"I don't remember."

"Look at this." His friend Master picked up an empty box where they usually put the sweet drink.

"Wine."
