Glory to Earth Magic

Chapter 17

Glory for the Earth Magic! , By : Torimaru Karasuma / 已己巳己

“Oh, well then Yatsufusa-san is a werewolf.”

“Uh, yeah. Oh, my village doesn’t only have werewolf in it. Basically, everyone’s talent in their attributes of magic wasn’t as much as mine. Everyone pooled their money and gave me a good place to sleep …… everyone in the village was willing to help me once they knew I had the talent.”

The brother who calls himself Yatsufusa stammered on his description. Even so, I envy the village for having such a good relationship. I had my selfish images, but I thought it was exclusive for a village to have some severe bigot, still, I also live in a village place like Yatsufusa.

“So there are wolf’s with silver-colored hair, red colored hair, black colored hair or various other kinds.”

Colorful mofumofu …… I want to go there once. I want to hear something about werewolf’s so I ask him a little carefully.

“Do you mean, well, do you transform into a wolf on the night of a full moon?”

Speaking of a wolfman, it would be transforming into a wolf on a night with a full moon.

“I do not know where you heard that, but I can transform at any time? Oh, but on a night with a full moon, I feel in a much better condition for some reason……”

Wolf man are to be transformed on the night of a full moon. I thought whether things seen in a fictional story and reality did not go well together. Well, it’s okay considering that the mofu at any time is positive.
Even so, being in good condition on a night with a full moon….. Certainly, I have read that the phases of the moon and the magic are related in a book about earth, maybe there is some similar law in this world? That’s still not certain.

“Oh, speaking of which I never heard your name.”

Yatsufusa said that to me and I noticed I hadn’t done a self-introduction.

“Oh…… my name is Alba Fontecium Lambert. Please do not use to much care since I’m just a lower-cla.s.s n.o.ble.”

“Nunununu n.o.ble-sama!? Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry ah ah ah ah I did not notice!”

As soon as he heard n.o.ble, Yatsufusa begins lowering his head in an obedient manner making me feel sorry.

“No, please don’t worry about it! I only spoke about it…… being so tame in the open is so when you learned my name is unpleasant.”

“There I was in trouble also so…..”

Whether because he was unfamiliar with using honorifics or nervous, Yatsufusa who got fl.u.s.tered used downright messy honorifics while talking.

“Let’s feel free to talk since Yatsufusa-san and I are friends right?”

Yatsufusa somehow calms down when I remind him. Due to my persuasion, Yatsufusa is settled down and takes a deep breath.

“But does it not lead to executions when you don’t use honorifics?”

I guess he misunderstood me as some kind of tyrant. If I was, it would be to mofu with full force because I want to primarily test the mofurisuto. (EN: Them slang I don’t know.)

“What, it’s okay, please don’t mine because my honorifics have become a habit”

I reach out to shake hands with a smile saying so, finally, Yatsufusa believed me and stretched out his hand giving me a handshake.

“So you are my friend?”

“What, do you hate it?”

“Different. I’m glad to have a friend the same gender as me since I had a lot of anxiety here alone.”

Yatsufusa-san laughs awkwardly saying so. Somehow it seems that socializing is his weakness with his personality so it’s going to be hard to deal with. He stutters a lot even though it’s only about this.

“Yes, A, Alba-san. “Yeah?” …… Alba, how old are you? I’m 11-years-old this year.”

“11-years-old!? Really!?”

I forget about honorifics and shout in front of Yatsufusa from the shock. In my eyes, his appearance was that of someone over 20-years-old, but his height was about a poor 180. Therefore I had thought he was 15 or 16-years-old taking into account the admission age. No wonder there was a guy with around 180 who was even my friend during junior high in my previous life. 11-years-old so there is only a two-year difference.
By the way, I feel like crying …… the height difference between the two of us with my 124 is around close to 60 cm.

“Uh, yeah. Well…… What age is Alba?”

“I’m 9 years old, by the way, my height is 124.”

I say so while dropping my shoulders with my heart sinking from the shock. Yatsufusa looks at the scene then speaks after guessing something.

“Well, you know! This body is a tribal pattern for werewolves! A a also we’re early to get to it! It’s okay! Alba-kun might be a “Chibi ” now, but you’ll quickly become big!” (EN: Ooo.)

He has 100 percent good will, but I would become increasingly dented from the Chibi that was in the conversation.
Again, I’m sensitive to height because I’m a man. Huh? My height in my previous life?…… It’s cla.s.sified information.

“Oh …… Oh! Well, so what is your attribute!? I I can do the wind attribute, but I’m closer to thunder.”

“…… Earth attribute.” (EN: Dang.)

“Awawawa, please, I’m sorry!”

Yatsufusa seems to be going around the conversation topics with care, but it seems to me he collapsed the mine again. Well, I understand that he has no malice, my height aside with respect to my attribute, I’ll try to settle this because I’m not pessimistic. My heart does not feel it since my mind is used to this.

“Please do not care because I’m going to master the earth attribute! You better believe me when I have height growth in the future. Thank you for comforting me too.”

“You don’t need to mind since you are a …… Friend.”

Yatsufusa shakes his tail with a ⌊Ba.s.saba.s.sa⌉ while saying that embarra.s.sed. Bad, he is like a friendly dog.
Yatsufusa and I arrived at the auditorium while having a little silly conversation. Chairs are arranged in this wide auditorium. I’ve been waiting with Yatsufusa for the entrance ceremony to start since the seats haven’t been decided.

“There there. Quiet! Silence!”

There was a typical wizard type old man standing with a white beard wearing a black robe while waiting in the back of the auditorium’s stage. His voice was like he used a microphone, but he wasn’t using a microphone.
I wonder frequently if he was using a loudspeaker magic of some sort.

“Welcome freshmen. Congratulations on your admission! I am Valenza, the current school head!”

Apparently, that great sage-specific old man is indeed the school head. The school head continues the self-introduction.

“My school also has the intention of the king, come those who have left their family to learn in spirit! There are children of n.o.bles and of the general public, but there will be no discrimination in this school! Everyone, it will be good to keep in mind that you are all equal!”

Well, for the commoners, such a problem will be caused by a n.o.ble and make a mess. But with this turn of events, I expect that it will still occur that people will be divided.
In fact, Yatsufusa was also quite scared when he knew I was a n.o.ble.

Since then, there was a cla.s.sic school greeting and descriptions such as school rules. To say the rules were like any ordinary school, but as expected, there was one special rule, you can not have private fights unless you get permission.
I heard it heartily when they said they forbid private fights since this was fantasy.

The entrance ceremony did not take a long time and is now we are being designated our dorms, I was thinking I don’t know which dorm to go to when someone carried in a worn out hat.

“…… No way.”

“What is it?”

Yatsufusa reacts to my words, but I say nothing. No, but is indeed. Father said that the teachers unite and divide it.

“Well, it will be explained to those who don’t know. In fact, three years ago our teachers had determined who will go to which dormitory, but it was boring I thought. So I devised this judgment crystal! “

Saying so, the school head takes out some sort of shining blue crystal slowly. Hey, hey it’s supposed to be hat related! There’s a meaning to the depth from where that hat was taken! That old man is surprisingly funky for changing it from the boring way.

“I will always say the most suitable dormitory for you guys that will keep your talent alive when you put your hands on the crystal! Four dorms! Oh, did you know this hat was bought recently since it had a nice good old feel.”

No, I don’t know it. School head starts an explanation on the four dorms while I had such a tsukkomi in my mind.

“The first is the Agni dormitory! This is often overflowing with energetic young people who have fighting spirit! This is a fighter school dormitory. Let those who have the ambition to be strong be chosen!”

Oh, I see. The name of the dormitories has been taken from the G.o.ddesses. The school head also explains the rest of the three. Here is it briefly.

Agni dormitory…… fighter school dormitory with battle maniacs and stinky muscle men.

Ca.n.a.l dormitory…… commander type dormitory to make a calm judgment, people good at study!

Raf.a.ga dormitory …… healing dormitory that is a gathering of nature loving gentle people. Many women, many women! Since it’s important I say it twice.

Wilderness dormitory …… strong dormitory, unsung heroes who have a strong feeling to protect someone. The type to grow diligently and patiently.

One impression I had after listening to the description. I  absolutely do not want to go to the Agni dormitory. First of all, it’s impossible for me to be in a man stinking dormitory. The woman may not necessarily be absent, but there are proportionally more men.
Personally, I like the Raf.a.ga dorm!

Several freshmen lined up for the crystal as ordered, I also line up in it, finally, it’s my turn to put my hand on the white crystal and something other than a haze appears. This isn’t the attribute inspection, but it’s good that even if it’s similar to it.
For now, while waiting, I prayed that I wouldn’t be in the hated Agni dormitory, then the white crystal was labeled Wilderness dormitory.
I was relieved that it wasn’t the Agni dormitory and leave the auditorium. I had decided to wait for Yatsufusa outside the auditorium since inside was packed with people. After a few minutes of waiting, Yatsufusa comes out.

“Alba-kun”

“Ah, Yatsufusa-san. What dormitory are you in? “

“I was also in the same Wilderness dormitory like Alba-kun.”

Wow, I thought that his good personality would end up in the Raf.a.ga dorm. Yatsufusa seems to instead be in the same dormitory as me. I’m happy since I have the friend of the same gender in the same dormitory.
Yatsufusa and I go to confirm the location of our dormitory while talking about the impressions we had about the entrance ceremony.

Why is his name so long Q.Q

Is there another translation for : ヤ(Ya) ツ(Tsu) フ(Fu) サ(Sa)  ?

Another magic explanation in a few chapters… sigh. That chapter translation tempted me into going full-on into short stories…
