Chapter 506

The four of us talked

“I heard the beastkin are more athletic than humans… Besides…”

“You sensed it too, Sebastian?”

“Yes, Your Grace. I believe she was using magic energy.”

“Magic energy? Yes I did sense something a little strange when Liza was running…”

It wasn’t any visual change, or anything clear that I had seen. And so I wasn’t sure. But was she really using magic energy?

“Mr. Takumi…had not used magic for very long. So it’s no surprise that he cannot tell.”

“You can tell when someone is using magic energy?”

“Yes… When one uses magic, their senses are strengthened. And that helps you to detect when someone else is using it.”

“Indeed, my own senses are not very developed.”

“Yes. But still, even sensing a little strangeness is impressive. It is not something that develops in such a short time, usually.”

“I think it usually takes about a year?”

“Yes, for people who are close by. But veterans are able to detect it from much farther away. Though, you would have to be using magic every day, on top of having the right constitution…”

When using magic, you have to be able to detect the magic energy inside of your body.

Now that I thought about it, when Sebastian had first started to teach me, he said that it took some people a long time before they could clearly detect the magic energy within their body.

Regardless, if it was going to take a year…I probably should train more with it.

Even if I couldn’t detect it at a long distance, it would surely be useful if I could tell when someone was using magic nearby.

That being said, I had no intention of making combat my occupation, so I didn’t know how useful it would be.

“Leaving Mr. Takumi aside… So, she really was using magic?”

“If you sensed magic energy, it is likely… But she doesn’t know any magic, does she? When Ms. Claire taught me about magic before, she clearly did not understand very well. Though, Ms. Isabelle did say she had the potential.”

While Mr. Ekenhart was not sure, I doubted that Liza could use magic.

She barely even knew what magic was.

She had never chanted any spells. And even if they detected magic energy, was that the same thing as using magic…?

“Well, it could be a special magic that the beastkin use.”

“Really?”

What kind of magic was that… Ah, Ms. Isabelle had said something about how the beastkin used different magic.

I had been thinking about asking Sebastian about it, but the subject had never come up, and I forgot about it after the issues with Deam…

“The magic that beastkin use is slightly different from humans. Well, some of it is similar… But the way that they use it is different.”

“How so…?”

“The biggest thing is that they do not need to chant. I explained this to Mr. Takumi before, but humans need to chant and decide on the effect. However, it is not necessary for beastkin. But since they still use magic energy, it can be detected.”

“No chanting… So Liza could be using magic without knowing it?”

“That is quite likely. But I do not know enough to say for sure… But that gave them quite an advantage during the war, I hear. After all, very few humans can use magic without chanting.”

It was a great advantage, to be able to unleash magic like that.

Instead of lengthy chanting, you could activate magic immediately.

But in order for humans to do it, you had to do a lot of training, and it was not something anyone could do.

So if both sides had the same number of magicians, and they attacked each other, it would make sense that the beastkins would win.

“However, there are not many beastkin who can use magic. And the humans had more soldiers in general, so we were not defeated…”

“Well, we are not talking about the war, but Liza. So, that really was magic then? And she was using without realizing it…”

“We cannot be sure… But perhaps it is an ability they can acquire subconsciously. Either through watching others or maybe when they reach a certain age. In any case, considering the movement of magic energy, her using magic is the only explanation.”

“…Yes. While I have not watched her for as long as Mr. Takumi, I’ve never seen her move like that before. Magic could be the only reason she is able to move like that without experience.”

As for why Liza could use magic, it was probably related to her being beastkin, but it wasn’t clear.

Regardless, the conclusion was that she had used magic when charging towards Mr. Ekenhart.

Liza could use magic… Well, that was not a bad thing…
