Chapter 8 Open the door to another world!
Chapter 8 Open the door to another world!
”Good morning, Miss Mirajane, Miss Laqi.”
When Rhodes arrived at the guild, Mirajane and Laqi were already wiping the table.
Although they had wiped it last night, they still had to wipe it again before opening the business.
“Good morning, Rhode.”
Mirajane’s smile was still as bright as before, “Also, forget about the honorific, just call me Mira like everyone else.”
”Me too, just call me Laqi.”
”Mira, Laqi?” Rhode tried to call out, and said politely, “Then I am overstepping my authority.”
Mira corrected, “This context is not yet at the level of ‘overstepping’.”
Laqi held her face, her long purple hair covering half of her hands, revealing a narcissistic expression: ”Maybe Rhode wants to express that he treats us as princesses or queens?”
Rhode denied, “Sorry, there is no such thing.”
After helping a little, Rhode sat at the counter and ate breakfast, a very ordinary combination of milk and sandwiches.
The price was much cheaper than the curry rice he had yesterday, but the taste was great.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, it’s the same food, but the taste seems to be better on the day I just woke up – maybe I was too hungry at that time.
While half leaning on the counter to enjoy breakfast, Rhodes watched the people entering the guild one after another.
The dressing styles in this world are very rich, including Chinese cheongsam and Ma褂, Japanese kimono and yukata, as well as European dresses and tailcoats.
Like what Rhodes is wearing now, modern and simple casual wear sweatshirts are also not uncommon.
In addition to these, there are some very strange clothes. For example, there is a pretty girl now, wearing double horns on her head, a tiger-print chest-length slit long skirt, tiger-print sleeves on her arms, tiger-print boots on her feet, and the soles are even in the shape of tiger claws.
The whole person looks like a little tiger with horns, full of wild beauty.
“That’s Miji, Miji Chijinteg.” Mira introduced, “She’s nicknamed the Ghost Princess.”
”Huh?”
”Rhode has been staring at her since the beginning. Could it be that…” Mira showed a gossipy expression and gave Rhode advice with great interest,
”Miji likes fighting very much. If you care, go and fight her. If you can win, she will definitely look at you differently.”
”No, no…” This sentence has a lot of complaints. Rhode sorted out his thoughts,
”I just think her outfit is not very common, and… Aren’t everyone a magician? Why do you like fighting?”
Mira asked curiously: “Shouldn’t magicians be good at fighting?”
”Magic…” Rhode was silent. Could it be that my perception is strange? Thinking carefully, I often see everyone fighting in the guild these few days, punching and hitting each other.
Yesterday, I saw the president punch two guys who overturned the table into the floor with one punch…
Will the wizards in this world follow the melee route of the magic warriors? —— The tavern is usually not too busy in the morning. After Makarov came, Rhode started his first magic class.
”Generally speaking, to use magic, you need something called magic power.”
”Magic power is a special kind of ‘qi’, which exists both in our bodies and widely in nature.”
”When the ‘qi’ in our bodies and the fluctuations of ‘qi’ in nature are in harmony, magic will be concretely presented.”
”To do this, you need a considerable degree of mental strength and concentration…”
Since Rhode knew nothing about magic, Makarov had to start from the most basic things.
As for more profound theories, about emotions, about the soul, about the power of the ‘heart’, we have to wait until Rhode’s magic practice reaches a certain level, or until he comprehends it himself. “Is there magic in my body?” Rhodes has always been worried about this. He is not even from this world.
Fortunately, Makarov gave him a reassurance: “Of course there is, but it is not easy to detect now.”
”It is not easy for ordinary people to discover and strengthen this “qi” in their bodies. The general way to use is meditation.”
”But for you, you can first feel the magic in another way.”
Rhodes asked: “How to do it?”
”First, focus on the pendant and try to call it in your heart. Then, try the spell I modified from the magic of the stars.”
Makarov taught Rhodes the spell word by word, and Rhodes followed it like a parrot.
”Try it after you remember it.”
”Here?” Rhodes looked at his companions in the tavern worriedly, “Will it cause trouble?”
Makarov said: “Don’t worry, with your current magic power, you can’t summon too strong creatures, and even if you can, you can’t maintain it.”
”…” Rhodes didn’t like this answer at all.
But since the president said it didn’t matter, then do it.
He pinched the necklace pendant and stared at the gold and blue icon. After a few seconds, he seemed to really feel that there was some connection between him and it.
Rhodes hurriedly chanted the spell: “I am the one who connects the two worlds. You, the creature of the other world, respond to my call and go through the door!”
The pendant emitted a golden and blue light. Magic gathered in the air. Rhodes squeezed the pendant and shouted the last sentence:
“Open it, the door to the other world!”
Buzz~~~
A heavy and majestic sound sounded, and a vortex emitting blue light appeared in front of Rhodes, with stars twinkling in the vortex.
Through this vortex, it seems that you can feel the cold air of another world and hear the sound of the cold wind whistling over the cliff.
In such a cold and murderous atmosphere, a figure leaped out of the vortex.
The light and sound of magic attracted the attention of most people in the tavern.
This must be a powerful and cold creature! Everyone thought so, and Rhodes thought so too.
However, when the vortex disappeared, there was only a palm-sized, furry white object on the ground.
”Woo-woo-woo?” The little guy made a strange sound, seeming a little confused.
But soon its eyes were fixed on Rhodes, and then it stuck out its big pink tongue, ran towards Rhodes with its short legs, and hugged his calves.
Rhodes was a little confused. He looked at this little fur ball and felt that it looked familiar. He bent down and picked it up to observe it carefully.
Black eyes, round body. White and soft hair like a sheep, a pair of curved horns on the head, and a long tongue like a puppy.
Rhodes put it on the counter and touched its head. The little guy turned over comfortably, revealing a heart-shaped pink belly.
”Puro?” Rhodes recognized this soft and cute little guy based on his experience in the Howling Abyss.
“Woo woo woo~” The little Poro’s voice was full of joy, as if he had found a meal ticket.
Rod: “…”
This magic summoned thing seems to be different from what I thought! (End of this chapter)
