“Spread the fire!”
“Fire of Extreme Destruction!”
“Raging torrent!”
“Hahahaha!”
Cain was excited.
The magic he had been taught by Tirunoa at the duke’s house was released with less power when practiced. The duke’s house does not have a special training ground, so when he practiced, he did it in his room, in the courtyard, or on the roof balcony of the mansion, so he did not shoot magic with all his might.
This was fine, however, because the first priority is to be able to control magic, which is learned as an essential part of being a nobleman.
Before his death, Cain was a video-game video distributor. He loves games so much that he joined a company that paid him a small salary but allowed him to go home on time and take weekends off, and he even started a live video streaming service to see if he could make some extra money from games.
He has lived as Cain, the heir apparent of a duke, for 12 years. He has acquired the attitude of a nobleman’s son.
However, he still retains the memories of his previous life. He is in a forest where demonic beasts are frequenting. Deep in the forest, where there are no residents or houses.
In this situation, where nothing is reserved, it was impossible not to get excited.
He has developed since he hit the maximum magic of each element three times and collapsed due to running out of magic power, and he is also able to pay attention to his own remaining magic power. Cain’s mind had been unhinged by the situation that allowed him to shoot magic without hesitation.
“Hey, hey! Cain! Cain!”
“Echoing thunderous roar!”
The air rumbled with echoes as a thunderous electric shock struck the larger, cow-like magical beast. The beast’s body convulsed, and it collapsed on the spot with its tongue hanging out and its eyes white, as if its internal organs had been burned off.
“Cain, you’re such a jerk!”
Cain finally put his hand down when Senshur grabbed his shoulder.
“That’s too much. I mean, it’s not going to be a good practice for Gianluca. Please give up more of your hunting to Gianluca.”
“Ah!”
Just as Senshur had said when they entered the forest, the magical beasts appeared one after another even in the shallow position from the square.
While the two knights always kept their swords ready, they handed over the attack to Cain and Gianluca when they were at a distance from the opponent. The two knights would respond to the demonic beasts that attacked them at close range, such as behind their backs. At first, they acted in such a role-sharing manner. Cain started to go out of control and unleashed a high-powered magic the moment he saw the magical beast.
When he turned around, he saw the dead carcasses of the demonic beasts lying along the road he had traveled.
“I’m sorry. I got a little excited when I realized I could use magic without holding back.”
“If this continues, it will be you who needs to be shackled, Cain. Please show me that you can control magic properly.”
“Okay. I am sorry.”
Cain reflects as Senshur chuckles and calls out to him. Valletti is pulling away.
“The next time a magical beast appears, Gianluca will attack it. Even if he misses, I’ll be there, and so will Senshur and Valetti, so let’s not hesitate.”
“Okay! I’ll do my best!”
Cain coughs to hide his embarrassment and asks Gianluca to speak next, to which Gianluca responds in a straightforward manner.
Cain couldn’t help but pat Gianluca’s head. Since Gianluca also has a fluffy blonde head, he couldn’t help stroking his head in the same manner as Arundirano.
“Cain… I’m not a little child anymore, so I don’t like it when you pat my head.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Gianluca is an honest and hardworking person, so I really wanted to praise him. Words are not enough, so I couldn’t help patting him. But it was insulting.”
“Are you complimenting him?”
“I’m praising him. I defeated a lot of magical beasts, so Master Gianluca can praise me too, can’t he?” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
With that, Cain squatted down and pointed his head at Gianluca. Gianluca raises and lowers his hands in confusion and looks at Senshur and Valetti. Senshur just laughed bitterly, while Valetti gestured with his mouth and told him to squish it up.
Gianluca turned again to Cain, who was squatting, and with a look of horror, gently placed his hand on his head and slowly moved it along the stream of hair.
“Cain did a great job killing a lot of demonic beasts.”
“Thank you.”
When Gianluca’s hand left his, Cain stood up and smiled.
“I’m so glad you praised me,” he said. “Now, let’s get on with it.”
“Yes!”
Cain and Gianluca fired their magic at the magical beasts, and the two knights used their swords to finish off the ones they couldn’t. The two knights were working together quickly and efficiently.
“Gianluca. Are you about to run out of magic?”
“Cain? I may have lost a little bit of concentration, but I think I’ll still be fine.”
“If you have lost your concentration, then controlling your magic will become a chore. Magic power is similar to mental power, so when it gets low, it makes you sleepy.”
“Is that so?”
“I used to be empty of magic power. The most important thing to remember is that you can’t just take a look at the pictures and see what’s going on.”
“Ahhh. I just fell down, didn’t I?”
Gianluca’s tone of voice, which had been polite and courteous, was becoming a bit juvenile. It was probably because his magic power was running low. It was only natural that he would not be able to recognize the signs of magic power loss since he had been sealed off from magic and had hardly ever used it. Cain gently patted Gianluca on the head and smiled.
“You worked hard. You were able to control your magic until you ran out of energy. You did a great job without losing your concentration.”
“Heeee. I was praised.”
Cain took Gianluca’s hand and walked toward the knight, linking them together.
“Mister Senshur, Mister Valletti. It’s time to go back. Gianluca’s magic is about to run out.”
“…His Highness looks kind of sleepy.”
The first time I saw Gianluca, who was being led by the hand of Cain, his eyes often glazed over. Senshur raised an eyebrow at him.
“That’s what happens when you’re about to run out of magic. Concentration will drop and you will not hit, and you will lose consciousness if the magic power is completely cut off.”
“Magic is surprisingly inconvenient in some ways.”
“Even if a sword spills its blade, you can still knock him down by punching him.”
As Cain explained, the two knights shrugged their shoulders and said, “Well, let’s go back.”
The two knights shrugged and said, “Well, shall we go back then? ……By the way, Cain”
“What is it, Mister Shensur?”
Senshur turned around and pointed to the carcasses of the demonic beasts that had fallen along the path he had traveled so far.
“I wonder if there is some kind of useful spatial magic that can compress and contain the carcasses of demonic beasts, or some kind of gravity magic that can make them float and move?”
“Unfortunately, I can’t use any magic like that. There might be such a thing somewhere, but I have never heard of it.”
“That’s too bad… Valetti, you hold the head, I’ll take the feet.”
“What? The head is heavier!”
This inspection tour also serves as an ecological survey. We had to bring the defeated monsters back to the encampment. We couldn’t just bring back what we were going to eat.
“Gianluca,” he said, “we are going to take back the horned rabbit and the raccoons.”
“Okay.”
I put the rabbit in Gianluca’s sleepy hands and took the raccoon myself, and we walked back toward the square hand in hand.” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

It’s so refreshing to read that kind of attitude in Cain cx.
