"water, be fullPhilite Rainier”
 
 Elizabeth looked straight at the jug, put her fingertips on the rim, and announced in a dignified voice.
 As soon as I touched it, water began to gush out from the glass surface. It eventually turns into a small stream that swirls in the jug. Gradually increase the water level until it overflows the edge of the jug.
 Up until now, the vessel was filled with about half the water in advance, and then it was literally used as 'priming water'. However, this time I succeeded in getting water from nothing.
 
"Remarkable progress, Elizabeth."
"It's because of His Highness Vincent's help."
 
 Elizabeth looked up at me and smiled.
 It's not flattering, it's really thanks to me. After all, Elizabeth has me in her head to keep her focused.
 
“It goes without saying, but thanks to this training, I no longer feel extremely embarrassed when I see His Highness’s face.”
 
 Recognize. I used to be like that too.
 Unable to say that, I nodded with a relaxed smile.
 
"That was good. If I can help you, I couldn't be happier."
"Yeah, I can't lose to Lisha-sama either."
 
 Elizabeth looked to her side. Led by her, she shifts her gaze to see Rafael and Miss Lisha facing each other in a slightly distant place.
 
 By the way, this place is outdoors. It is an inner court built between the wings of the royal palace. Elizabeth and Miss Lisha are practicing magic while bathing in the gentle breeze and soft sunlight.
 Ignoring such a refreshing atmosphere, Rafael smiled with a nasty smile.
 
"Fufufufu... let me see your power."
"I won't lose!! Light, become a sacred wallBrick the LightTsu! ! ”
"water, let it floodFrado Rainier--"
 
 With a shout, Miss Risha thrusts her hands forward. Magical power condensed from her palm gushed out and created a translucent wall. It seemed to be difficult to control, and when I thought it was shining thickly, it would become almost transparent, but anyway, it was a 'wall'.
 It repels the water flow that Raphael created with magic.
 
 The principle behind the 『Wall』 is the same as when Mother grabbed Lars. By condensing a large amount of magical power, it creates a physical layer with resistance to magic, that's all. However, it is extremely difficult to fix magical power as magical power itself without using media such as water or fire.
 This is the reason why there are few magicians with holy attributes.
 Miss Lisha, you really do have a talent for magic...
 
“Kyaaaaa!!”
 
 Have you lost your concentration or have you run out of magic power? The wall that was unfolding disappeared. Naturally, Raphael's stream of water attacks the defenseless Miss Lisha.
 Raphael wiped the water droplets off the monocle and reapplied it while looking at Miss Lisha, who had become a wet mouse.
 
"Is that so? What is your power?"
"Kuuu...! Please, again!"
 
 Miss Lisha clenched her fist to encourage herself. Her jet-black eyes grew deeper and brighter.
 Rafael's acting is brilliant. …… No, is it acting? Yeah, well, it's acting. Let's keep it that way.
 
"You can't beat me with just your magical power.... I should have told you what to do, right?"
"...!!"
 
 Miss Lisha closed her eyes and folded her hands in front of her chest.
 There are several ways to harness large amounts of magical power. A method of accumulating magical power within oneself over time in advance, a method of supplying it from magic stones, and finally, from others and nature.and・and others・cormorant・The method.
 
 Just like that time, the surroundings of Miss Lisha began to shine. Her black hair changed colors in response to the reflection of light. It's like a rainbow of seven colors.
 A simple dress is also covered with pieces of light as if it were studded with jewels.
 Raising her hand, Miss Risha said in a clear voice.
 
"Light, become a sacred wallBrick the Light”
 
 A perfect rectangular wall of light appeared along with the chanting.
 It seems that it can easily block the water flow Raphael shoots, and even absorb it. Instead of splashing around, the water hits the wall and disappears.
 
 I see, so this is the effect when the [Sacred Wall] appears perfectly. I saw it for the first time.
 It decomposes the attributed magical power and returns it to normal magical power and absorbs it. It is virtually invincible magic defense,Initial investmentoverheadIt's not used in actual combat because it's big and works only with magic.
 
 Rafael's smile deepens.
 
"Then how about this--water, let it floodFrado Rainier”
 
 What Raphael has been shooting since a while ago is the higher version of the magic that Elizabeth used. The only difference is the amount of water. However, the difference between magical power and technology appears as a clear difference.
 A torrent that flooded the entire courtyard attacked Miss Lisha.
 
"...!!"
 
 Miss Lisha didn't scream this time. She stared at Raphael and the flowing water, and she continued to maintain the [Sacred Wall].
 and.
 
 Zappa.
 
 After holding its shape until the very end, the wall vanished. Raphael smiled at Miss Lisha who was swept away and landed on her buttocks.
 
"Let's end here for today."
 
 It seems that it is a passing score. Raphael, who is more of a Spartan than a Spartan by nature, would find it difficult to achieve satisfactory results.
 Miss Lisha breathes a sigh of relief. Everyone here, including me, felt the difference in ability between her and Raphael, who has the official qualifications of a 《Magician》.
 … and this is not the time to be frankly impressed. If you look at Elizabeth with her bad premonition, Elizabeth is staring at Raphael with her cheeks flushed. Her purple eyes sparkle innocently.
 
"You're amazing, Rafael-sama. I also have to train more."
“Yes, Elizabeth-sama is also steadily improving.
 
 This guy even gave Elizabeth motivation at the same time as Miss Lisha. At the same time, it's disgusting to see a production that raises the likability. As expected of a man who was called a rare witch and a rare womanizer.
 
 Elizabeth helped Miss Lisha up and entered the room with the maid. she changes her clothes.
 Rafael and I who were left behind looked at each other.
 I smiled and frowned involuntarily.
 
“Is your fiancé doing well?”
"of course"
 
 Raphael nodded when I pointed to a pitcher of water that was filling the surrounding tablecloths.
 Little by little, Elizabeth's magical knowledge is being polished. She has shortened her training, which would normally take about a month for a normal person, to a week, so her efforts are extraordinary. She can do it because she is Elizabeth.
 Elizabeth, who had seen Miss Lisha's ''flowering'' up close, may not understand it, but it was a rough cure, and she did it because of Miss Lisha's abundant amount of magic and the prospect of flowering. That is.
 
 Actually, if it's for Elizabeth's sake, I can even fall from the third floor. However, in order to grow Lars without difficulty, steady study would be good, so this is the method.
 Wrath's size hasn't changed since it grew a size, but instead, its scales became thicker and sharper, making it look more spiky. When threatened, even the tip of the scales glows red, and if you think that's the result of absorbing Elizabeth's magic power, you'll want to peel it off. The person himself (dragon?) sometimes sticks out his tongue and blinks his eyes and scales. I get angry.
 
 When I duly probed Elizabeth, it seems that she refrains from interacting with Lars.
 Please remember that I am a man of the same age on the inside. All men are wolves. ……I can't say that, so he instructed me, "Don't forget that you're a dangerous evil dragon."
