Chapter 13

A girl in a kimono stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window. She was deep in thought and lost her mind, obviously having something on her mind.

"Dong dong dong!"

A slightly urgent knock on the door woke her up. After she regained consciousness, she quickly regained her composure and said, "Please come in!"

The door opened with a creak, and to her surprise, the boy who walked in was the boy she invited back.

"Hakuno? Aren't you learning runes?" Kanzaki asked in surprise.

Bai Ye's expression is very exciting, including joy and weirdness.

"That's why I came here!"

His tone seemed urgent, "Kanzaki! Generally, how long does it take for a person to learn how to write a rune and be able to use it initially?"

Kanzaki couldn't help but be stunned, "Why do you ask -"

For a moment, neither Hakuye nor Kanzaki noticed that Hakuye called her by her last name out of impatience.

"Okay, answer me first!" Bai Ye interrupted Kanzaki's subconscious question rudely.

Although he didn't understand why, Kanzaki was not angry, but started thinking.

"It depends on the specific situation. People who are adaptable to magic can learn how to write runes within a few hours, but to be able to use magic and apply the runes, it will take at least a few days of experimentation!"

"Of course, even if you are less qualified, you can learn a rune in a day or two, but if you want to actually use it, it will take at least half a month to a month..."

Kanzaki said this.

Bai Ye was completely silent.

According to Kanzaki's classification standards, if you can learn a rune in a few hours and use it within a few days, you have strong adaptability.

Then he can learn one in a few minutes and use it in an hour. It is more than ten times stronger than the 'stronger' one!

Bai Ye took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and drew a rune in the void, which looked like an 'F'. It was the rune of fire. Immediately, a small flame ignited in the air.

Two seconds later, Bai Ye cut off the magic output and the flame disappeared.

When he looked at Kanzaki, unexpectedly, the expression was not as shocked as he imagined.

Kanzaki's expression was very complicated, and his eyes showed strange colors, weirdness, and strange closeness... He was even in a trance.

Bai Ye blinked and asked tentatively: "Um, Miss Kanzaki?"

"Ah, sorry!"

Kanzaki reacted immediately and apologized to Bai Ye, "Sit down first and speak slowly."

"...Don't you find it strange? I have already learned one, no, two runes!"

Bai Ye asked.

Kanzaki shook his head and said: "I guessed a little bit, so I'm not very surprised, but your talent is beyond my expectation!"

Generally speaking, magic talents can be divided into two types: magic talents and spell talents.

After Kanzaki explained to him, Hakuno suddenly understood.

When they first met, Kanzaki saw the extremely active magic power surrounding Hakuno, so he guessed that Hakuno must be gifted. At least, he had a very high affinity for magic power. In this case, His talent in magic is not that low even if you think about it!

So Kanzaki knew early on that Hakuno's talent must be very high, but he didn't expect it to be that high.

From a mortal who didn't know magic to learning two runes, what would have taken an ordinary person half a month, he could complete in less than half a day.

"It's like... out of the realm of human beings."

Kanzaki looked at Bai Ye's pupils with complicated eyes and said this. Then, he didn't know what he thought of and sighed without any trace.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. When Bai Ye heard Kanzaki's words, his body suddenly shook and his expression became gloomy.

The cabin suddenly became inexplicably quiet.

The two of them really have their own worries.

After a while, Kanzaki was the first to come to his senses and pretended that nothing had happened: "By the way, you didn't come to me just to show off, did you?"

Because he was so preoccupied, Kanzaki didn't notice Hakuno's strange expression.

"Ah, yes!"

Bai Ye was excited, "Actually, I have decided to learn runes for the time being, so I came to report to you!"

"In addition, I have another request. If possible, Miss Kanzaki, I hope you can teach me swordsmanship!"

After saying that, Bai Ye felt a little embarrassed: "I seem to be a little too complacent, haha..."

They were all trying their best to help me learn magic, and I asked them to teach me swordsmanship, which was really a bit over the top.

"No, that's not the case!"

Unexpectedly, Kanzaki smiled indifferently, "It's just learning swordsmanship, it's not a big deal. How about this, how about I train with you every morning and evening from now on?"

"Yes, that's good! Thank you so much!" Bai Ye said excitedly with a shocked expression.

…

After leaving Kanzaki's house and returning to his own room, Hakuno turned around and saw the mirror on the wall, and there was himself in it.

The face is still the same as in the previous life, but it looks a little tender because the skin has become much whiter.

"Out of the realm of human beings...?"

Chapter 14 Magic and Swordsmanship

Since his death and rebirth, Hakuno himself is not sure whether he is still a human or not.

From a profit perspective, it is naturally a good thing to gain great power after becoming non-human.

However, from a moral or psychological perspective, it is too complicated.

Shaking his head fiercely to expel distracting thoughts from his mind, Bai Ye gritted his teeth, sat on the chair again, and continued to study runes, gradually shifting his attention...

He woke up at six o'clock in the morning and started studying at seven o'clock. By noon, Bai Ye had learned four runes, including the two he had learned before.

During lunch, there was a knock on the door of the room, and Wuhe's voice came from outside the door.

"Hakuno, it's almost lunch time!"
