Chapter 13 - Chapter 13 : Omnipotent Magical Power

「Chloe onee-chan! Look, I can use magic!」(Mylia)

「…Mylia...」(Chloe)

Chloe stretched her hand to the circle of light Mylia made while trembling in excitement.

「Amazing… Mylia, you can be a witch…! I'm glad for you! If you practice your magic, you can enter the Adrashelm Royal Girls' Academy…..」(Chloe)

「Chloe onee-chan?」(Mylia)

「I was worried… I couldn't imagine what kind of bad things they might do to my cute Mylia after I felt… Thank God, you can use magic!」(Chloe)

「Chloe onee-chaー !?」(Mylia)

Chloe hugged Mylia tightly.

She was more pleased than Mylia herself.

While being hugged by her, Mylia thought how lucky she was to be this kind person's little sister.

After gently stroking Mylia's hair for a while, Chloe let go of Mylia from her arms.

「Alright, let's decide our plan… I will enter the academy two years from now when I turn twelve. If I pass, the knights of the royal capital will take me to the academy… Mylia, I want you to focus on practicing magic while I'm still here. You can skip working by acting absent-mindedly like usual in front of everyone else. The more you practice magic, the better you will be at using magic and the more likely you are to be able to escape from this house. However, you should be careful not to be found by Father or Robin onee-sama when you're practicing. Got it?」(Chloe)

「Un. Got it.」(Mylia)

「Two years after I leave, you'll be twelve. If you give the priest in the church 200 bronze coins, you can take the entrance exam for the academy. The examiner will come from the royal capital no matter how remote this place is. This is the only way to get out of Atwood territory with formal procedures!」(Chloe)

「Un!」(Mylia)

「You should keep an eye on how much your magic is growing and think about how to survive the two years while I'm gone... Ahh… I'm still worried leaving you at this place for two years after all…..」(Chloe)

「Don't worry, I can now use magic, so I can do something to protect myself!」(Mylia)

(Yes, I can use magic now! I can become like a witch that only appears in fantasy stories!ーー Oops, I can't get too excited yet. I still don't know how much I can improve after all. Besides…)

「Chloe onee-chan.」(Mylia)

「Yes, my cute little witch?」(Chloe)

「I'm still curious about the voice I heard the moment I touched this pendant…」(Mylia)

「Mylia, don't tell me you're going to the forest on the north sideーー」(Chloe)

「Un. I want to go there.」(Mylia)

「Oh, please don't. If something happens to you, I won't be able to recover from the sadness for the rest of my life…」(Chloe)

「Chloe onee-chan….. Umm… How about this: I'll practice magic for a while, and once I've gotten better at using magic, will you accompany me? Halfway is enough.」(Mylia)

「Hmm….. Hmmmm...…」(Chloe)

Chloe folded her arms and started thinking.

While Chloe was thinking, Mylia was getting sleepy.

And after five minutes of thinking, Chloe clapped her hands.

「Alright. If you can use magic to defend yourself, let's go there together. But of course, we should retreat if we feel it's too dangerous. But before we go, I should look for opportunities to skip lavender picking work.」(Chloe)

「Chloe onee-chan, thank you!」(Mylia)

As her drowsiness flew away, Mylia jumped and hugged Chloe.

◯◯◯

ーA month laterー

Avoiding her mother and Robin, Mylia secretly went to the lavender field to practice magic.

Every time she practiced magic in the lavender field, she pretended that she was playing with her older sister to deceive nearby villagers.

Thanks to Chloe completely memorizing the contents of the 'Elementary Magic' books, Mylia could finally use various spells after a month of practicing.

Howeverー

(Shouldn't I be able to do anything using magic? Or am I just suitable for wind magic…?)

She could use wind magic to create a blade of wind and shoot it at a target.

She could do all the rudimentary things such as create flame with fire magic and create water with water magic, but it wasn't as good as wind magic.

She couldn't create hot water or produce things that originally weren't there.

She also couldn't make anything other than a fluorescent lamp when she used light magic.

(Controlling magical power is difficult…)

After consulting with Chloe, she decided to focus on practicing wind magic for now.

(Let's call this wind spell,[Wind Blade]! ....Wind Blade…. Kuuhh! So cool!)

Mylia was excited.

「Aa-ahh, I'm worried…」(Chloe)

On the other hand, Chloe looked uneasy.

Mylia could only use magic if she had the silver pendant with her.

If they lost it, Mylia wouldn't be able to cast magic.

Chloe was worried that it might become a potential weakness.

While Chloe was worrying, Mylia kept on practicing.

(Go! Wind Blade!)

A blade of wind flew toward a fruit on a 'wasara' tree.

(Wind Cushion!)

As soon as the fruit fell, Mylia made a wind cushion under it.

Wasara fruit was a difficult fruit to collect even for adults because the tree was about 20 meters high.

「I got something nutritious!」(Mylia)

After confirming that there were no villagers around, Mylia controlled the wind cushion to bring the fruit to her.

(It looks like a coconut but the skin is soft.)

「Chloe onee-chan, you want some?」(Mylia)

「Un. Thank you.」(Chloe)

Mylia took out two wooden spoons from her pocket.

Then, she split the fruit into two with Wind Blade and handed one to Chloe along with one of the wooden spoons.

(It's not that delicious, but I'm addicted to its taste~)

To eat a wasara fruit, you should take out its big seed in the middle and eat the white part of the fruit with a spoon.

It tasted like a banana, but it wasn't sweet.

Wasara fruits contained a lot of nutrients, so many villagers wanted them.

Ever since Mylia started eating this fruit, her body has grown a little bit.

(Hmm!? I feel like Chloe onee-chan's breasts have become bigger than a few weeks ago…)

Mylia stared at Chloe's chest as Chloe elegantly sat on a rock.

(Chloe onee-chan has become Chloeros onee-chan!)

*/Chloe + eros

It's been three weeks since they started eating wasara fruits while practicing magic.

And it seemed that Chloe was also affected by the nutrition of those fruits.

Children grow fast after all.

The two of them were eating the wasara fruit together in the middle of the swaying lavender field.

「I feel like the more we eat this fruit, the more our bodies grow.」(Chloe)

「Un, I feel so too!」(Mylia)

They smiled at each other and enjoyed the fruit for a while.

「ーーMylia.」(Chloe)

Suddenly, Chloe whispered to Mylia.

There was a villager walking toward them from beyond the lavender field.

Immediately, they hid the wasara fruit behind a rock and wiped their mouths.

「Hello, Chloe ojou-sama, Mylia ojou-sama!」(old lady)

「Hello there.」(Chloe)

「...」(Mylia)

An old lady with a large basket full of lavender was passing by.

(She works until her waist is bent like that….)

Feeling like seeing the darkness of the Atwood Family, Mylia crossed her arms, wondering if the villagers' life could be better.

(But there's nothing I can do about it…)

After the old lady passed them, they began to eat the wasara fruit again.

「By the way, your magic has improved a lot. I'm impressed.」(Chloe)

「Is that so?」(Mylia)

「Yup. You still have a lot of spells that need improvement, though.」(Chloe)

「Then, can I go to the north side?」(Mylia)

「Umm… I think you can get rid of monsters with your magic, but…」(Chloe)

Chloe had no specific knowledge about how dangerous the monsters around the territory were.

There were books in the reading room about monsters, but all of them only described how to escape from them, not how to deal with them.

Besides, it was still unclear what level Mylia was as a magician.

「I wonder if you are ready to go there….」(Chloe)

Chloe was still worried.

However, Mylia's[Wind Blade]was more than enough for self-defense.

It has the accuracy to shoot down flying birds, and the power to cut down large trees.

At this point, neither Mylia nor Chloe were aware…

That eight-years-old Mylia has a magic level that is equal to a senior class magician at the academy…

A few days later, after Chloe finished picking lavender, the two of them went to the north side of the village.
