The World's Strongest Martial Artist Who Has Worked Too Hard, Survives In The Magic World With Ease Chapter 40

Ten days had pa.s.sed since I became a three-years-old kid again . Like usual, I was giving martial arts lesson to Effa at the square after the school .

“Okay, let’s do a review before we call it a day . Try to repeat what I’ve taught you today!” (Ash)

       It has only been about an hour since we started the training . However, the day was getting shorter recently . I was afraid Effa would injure herself if we continued training in the dark . Therefore, I decided to round it up sooner .

“Like this . Like this . Like this, right!?” (Effa)

       Effa threw a right punch, a left punch, a high kick, and… . fell on her b.u.t.t . It was still far from perfect, but she has made quite a progress compared to before . When we just started, she couldn’t even make a proper posture after all .

“Good . You have made a good progress . ” (Ash)

“Is that true!? Yeah, I did it!” (Effa)

       Effa jumped around happily .

I’m glad to see my disciple has made a progress with her training . On the other hand, I haven’t made any progress myself . Even though I’ve overcome the shame of wearing a princess-like outfit like this, there’s still no sign of Magic Spot will appear .

If it’s still not enough, maybe I have no choice but to use the ‘ultimate weapon’ I keep hidden until now . Well, it’s better if I don’t put too much expectation on it . I have to start thinking of a way to encourage mental growth other than by overcoming the sense of shame, too… .

“Well then, Master . Please take care of me again tomorrow!” (Effa)

“Oh, sorry . I have some business to take care of tomorrow . ” (Ash)

“Are you planning to go out somewhere?” (Effa)

“Yeah . Tomorrow we have a day off, right? I’m planning to go shopping in the morning, and go to my master’s house in the afternoon . ” (Ash)

Tomorrow is Master’s birthday after all . The distance from this place to the Demon Forest is more than 100 km . However, to celebrate Master’s birthday, I would even rush to the other side of the world .

“If it won’t be a bother, I’d like to accompany you shopping . I think I should start looking for souvenirs for my little sisters, too . ” (Effa)

“Then, let’s go together tomorrow! Then… . ” (Ash)

       After making a plan for tomorrow, I headed straight to the library .

       When I arrived at the library, Noire-san was already there with some textbooks spreading on the desk in front of her .

“You’re late . ” (Noire)

“I’m sorry . I was discussing something with Effa . ” (Ash)

       I took a seat next to Noire-san .

“I want to become smarter . You are the only one I can count on . ” (Noire)

       Noire-san said so full of motivation .

Lately, helping Noire-san study has become a new routine for me . There are less than three months left until the next promotion test, after all . Depending on the result of the next promotion test, our new cla.s.s when we become a third year student is determined .

Noire-san wants to stay in the advanced cla.s.s . Therefore, she asked me to help her study in order to get a good score in the written test . Noir-san said her goal was 30 points .

“Before we start, let’s review what we have studied before . First of all, please draw all the runes from yesterday . ” (Ash)

“I’ll try . ” (Noire)

       Noire-san drew ten magic runes on her textbook enthusiastically .

“I’m done . ” (Noire)

“Oh! That was fast . Let me see them… . ” (Ash)

“How?” (Noire)

       I shook my head towards Noire-san who was staring at me .

“It’s all wrong . ” (Ash)

“I see . So, what are the correct answers?” (Noire)

       I drew the correct runes on the notebook .

“… . I don’t know their differences . ” (Noire)

“Hmm? Look here, these parts are completely different!” (Ash)

       Noire-san nodded after comparing the right and wrong runes .

“You are right . I lost my confidence… . ” (Noire)

“Don’t give up! There are still three months before the promotion test . I’m sure you will manage it . ” (Ash)

“You are really reliable, but… . I’m already tired . ” (Noire)

“Hey, it has not even been five minutes yet . ” (Ash)

However, if she’s really tired, I guess it’s fine to take a break . It’s a waste of time if you study when your head’s tired after all .

“Speaking of which, does Noire-san have the memories from your previous life?” (Ash)

       I asked that question when we were taking a break .

According to Colon-san, it seems that the people who had no Magic Spot, also had memories of their previous life . If her theory is correct, Noire-san should have memories of her previous life too .

“I don’t have it . ” (Noire)

“I see… . ” (Ash)

Well, Colon-san also said that such memories would fade as they grow older . In Noire-san’s case, perhaps she has completely forgotten the memories of her previous life .

“Sorry for suddenly asking such a strange question… . ” (Ash)

“No, I don’t mind . This is the second time I’ve been asked that question after all . ” (Noire)

       I was surprised hearing Noire-san’s words .

“The second time!? Could it be the first person who asked that question is Colon-san?” (Ash)

“No, it’s Lingland . ” (Noire)

Lingland seems to have done various researches to create the world’s strongest wizard . In the process, he might have reached the same theory as Colon-san too .

“Did he ask the exact same question as me?” (Ash)

       Noire-san shook her head .

“He asked me whether I still remember the memories of my previous life or not . ” (Noire)

“… . remember?” (Ash)

It’s similar to my question, but at the same time, it’s also a completely different question . To me, it sounds like the memories of Noire-san was erased somehow .

“I’m not tired anymore . ” (Noire)

       Noire-san picked her pen and looked at me while making a serious expression .

It’s still bothering me… . There are many things to think about, maybe I should investigate it further next time . Let’s concentrate on teaching Noire-san for now .

“Okay, let’s review it once more . Draw all the magic runes from earlier!” (Ash)

“I understand………… I’m done!” (Noire)

It’s all wrong . For Noire-san to get 30 points in the written test, I guess it’s going to be more difficult than I expected .
