Chereads / Life with a Sister / Chapter 8 - Training, Bonds, and Boundaries

Chapter 8 - Training, Bonds, and Boundaries

In the garden, "I'll do it!" my sister wanted to do magical training together. My mother and their best friends were very pleased with this. Rushika's mother was impressed by her daughter's excellence, saying, "Fi-chan is still two years old, but she can train magic...! Genius... Mother, her nose is high!" Well, in fact, if you can understand and execute the meaning of training at the age of two, it's a sign of genius. I have unconscious expectations of Fee because she passed the magic exam at the age of four. The height of her magical abilities is a well-known fact, but it's assumed that she should also be smart.

Because of my brother, I don't think of magic and intelligence separately. Of course, that's a mistake, but Fee can already communicate clearly in conversation. She's not a reincarnated person like me, so her brain is certainly good.

"... well and carefully," Abel is wary of his sister's magic, which continues to grow every day. It is said that it is at a level where humans could easily die. It is important to learn control as soon as possible, so training participation is welcome.

"... If you don't learn control, the servant or Lucca will die just from crying or laughing." Thank you very much for holding her back. So, this is Fee.

"Nita! Niuta! Suku! Niutasu!" Abel has been carefully instructing practical skills and classroom lectures. It seems that my sister is flirting with him, so I decided to do it together.

(… I want her to do well and continue. For Al and Lucca.) Abel listened to me and trained together. Of course, the training content is different. Mine is to increase the amount of magic and improve precision. My sister's training is focused on basic control. Basic control is quite difficult.

You must avoid leaking it unconsciously and prevent explosions even if your emotions run high. You must always bring it under control.

"Fee is great? Fee is amazing?" "Kyan!" It seems that motivation is directly linked to the result, rather than being out of hand. I am convinced of the power of love. According to Abel, up until now, Fee scattered a huge amount of magic as if the river would flood the surroundings, but now only a small amount of water leaks from a broken bottle. The improvement is clear.

"... I thought it would take five or ten years to control magic for the first time. Complete control would take years. Al may really be a genius."

"Fhahahaha! My angel is excellent. That's why I'm glad to be praised for my brother! I'm much happier than being praised myself. If you laugh with your brother, it's fine. It is my brother who truly rejoices in her progress."

In this way, our siblings entered training. By March, Fee had already succeeded in holding her magic under control on her own. Even if she doesn't like her brother, she may really be a genius. And I'm studying for the Kingdom Exam next month. I want to reach the first stage.

"... Al. If I can pass the ninth grade, I'll give you a present," Abel said. It is said that in February, my magical power and academic ability are both enough to pass the ninth grade, so it's probably the default route.

"Is it good?" "... Yeah. Al is doing his best, so a reward from me." The elf girl smiled a little. My teacher is usually expressionless, so her occasional smile is unusually cute.

"So what will you give me?" "... You'll enjoy it later. Al, you'll surely rejoice." Is it a sister's gift? If so, I'd be glad to see her jump for joy.

Fee is always with me. From good morning to good night, except for the toilet, she is always by my side. While I am reading, I am learning and writing from Abel. I'm still two years old, but I'm learning. As expected, she is still very well-known, but it seems that she has only learned the characters "Al" and "Fee." Next, when she learned the word "brother," she was thrilled.

"Fee is amazing. I'm proud of her."

"Is she really amazing? Niitasuku!"

"Fee is amazing. I like Fee!"

Aber scolds us during class, but hasn't raised his voice yet.

"... I think Fee can reach the teens at the age of four at this rate." The eligibility for the magic test is from the age of four. I think she could go even if she were three years old, and Fee could certainly go, but this is inevitable.

"Nita, what is it? Foo, Ni-Tasuku! Daisui!" I naturally respond to her. I love being stroked. I also love stroking Fee. The touch of her silvery hair feels heavenly.

(Hmm...? That feeling…?) I decided to ask Aber about something important. I remembered two things I wanted to touch on from my previous life.

"Hey, Aber. What is the touch of the beast-people?"

"...…" Huh? Somehow, Aber's gaze is cold.

"... Al. I'll say this once. It is a criminal act to touch beast people. Especially their ears and tails. You should never touch them without permission."

Wasn't it a promise in the fantasy world to make the beast people!?

"... No, no, you can't do that. They're neither family nor lovers, so you can't marry them. They are not objects for the body... In other words, unless you're good, you won't be able to approach them forever. I'm in such a world!"

Uh, uh...! But... but I still have something else I really want to touch!

.......

I stare at my teacher's ears. Elf ears. I want to touch them once before I die. I want to stroke them.

"... No good." Abel hides his face behind his hat.

"... The elf's ears are sensitive. Never let me touch them."

"Al! Al-chan! Is it sexual harassment to look at the elf's ears? Apologize to Abel!"

Looking at my teacher's expression, it seems true that it is sexual harassment. I thought it was the usual harmless fun.

"I'm sorry..."

"... Yeah. If you didn't know, I can't help it. It's really embarrassing because I don't look at you. Thank you for the generous treatment. However, it's just playful this time, but I realized that common sense between races must be learned. I can't afford to cause trouble. Let's think positively that it was good to learn."

"Nita! It's just a na-fu-fu? Others!"

Now I can't easily aim for beasts or elves. It's hard to give up, but I can't help but offend My Sister... Should I think about something else...?

Huh! I'm always together!
