《Re:Otaku Prince life in another world》Chapter 9: [ Magic....! ]
Advertisement
“Heheh~ I’m amazing right! Do you respect me now, Prince Lyle… fufufu I won’t mind if you call me Big-sister, you know!”
This girl, just what happened to that meek and emotionless robotic girl? Haa~ but even so, Magic?, I already suspected this kind of development before but seeing it happening in front of me is still quite shocking and really amazing.
At this moment, I had a flash of inspiration.
I know for certain that back in [Earth], there's no such things as Magic.
You can only find these unscientific things in Fairytales, stories and Anime.
…………. But if it’s this world, perhaps even I can use it. Magic that is.
A world with magic, a world very different from the world I know of. Interesting!
Now this is what I call.....The very dream of a Hedonistic person!
‘Adventures beyond your wildest dreams. Kuuu~ this is what a real man’s romance means.
But for now, I need to know how to use it and I still need to wait to grow. Uugh, how vexing!’
Shall I try baiting her into play-teaching me somehow? Though if worst come to worst, being told that I had no talent would really suck.
I had read Light novels like that before. MCs that went from weak to strong. Although it's not really that bad because of my knowledge in martial arts, such thing like magic can be easily overlapped.
However, as a Hedonist, Using magic seemed more interesting!
And Interesting things is my own will to live!
“Sasha --- “
“!?” 'O'
Sasha stared at me wide-eyed.
Hahaha! Surprised aren't you? Look at that face, I really want to take a shot of it and hush tag it in Facebook. You will really become popular overnight with millions of likes!
“…..P-Prince Lyle. Once more, please say it once more.”
“Sasha --- “
“aa…aa”
A few tears flow out as she’s overwhelmed by emotion. She hugged me tightly and pressed her head towards mine, while jumping like a kangaroo.
‘Too close, your face is too close’
“Kyaaa! Prince Lyle, next please say ‘I Love You Big-Sister!'”

Getting carried away in the moment, aren't we?…. Just what is this girl trying to make me say? Hmph! Since she’s like that I’ll ignore her.
I tilt my head and avoid her gaze. But that didn’t stopped her and still hugging me so hard while jumping around and shouting excitedly.
“Prince Lyle is a genius! Without a doubt a genius! I’ll tell her majesty about this and surely she will prepare a feast to celebrate this”
Being crushed by her while she danced around is really a bit painful, Thus the pitiful and oh so cute me can only extend my cute hands and pushed her; expressing my will to separate from her.
‘Perhaps I overdid it a bit?... I’m almost one year old right? Or speaking in this age is a bit abnormal? Nah, what’s done is done. As they say, [Don't cry over a spilled milk I might get bald]’
Because of my constant resistance, she finally put me down in the bed. However, she still continued to watched me with sparkling eyes.
Haa~ Now then little girl, Hand me your payment!
Ug! I looked like a robber.
“…gic…”
With all my might, I tried to convey my intentions towards her. She tilted her head and put her hand under her chin as if she was in deep thought.
Hey, are you the daughter of [The thinker]? You really looked like her~
“Ah! Prince Lyle, do you want see magic again?”
Oh she finally gets it! Good girl, I will buy some candies to give you after I grow up a little bit okay~
Flashing my cute smile that can cause the whole world to faint, I immediately nod.
Hm? I think that's too much. If that's the case, then I will become Apollo...meh, whatever.
“Uuumm… okay! if I remember right, this one shouldn’t be too dangerous…”
She extended her right hand and started to chant those not-so-clear gibberish again.
“Oh! Great warrior of light who vanished the beings of darkness, lend me your powers to show me the way, shine brilliantly and sweep away the night!”
‘Too long! The chant is too long! Can't you shorten it, isn't it embarrassing?'

Why do chants always this long? And what the hell is that chant, it feels like a chant made by a certified Chuuni!
“---LIGHT!”
A light appeared from the tip of Sasha’s finger.
Although It’s quite dim, and already sputtering out, but it’s a beautiful sight.
‘Wow! If I can do that back in Earth, Then using electricity for my home's light will be lessen! And then I won't need to worry about my electricity bill every month! So Convenient!'
I touch the light, and as expected it doesn’t give off any heat.
“Kyaaa~!”
Amazed, I clapped my hands while watching intently towards the light.
Now I really think your amazing now, Sasha. Great work! I gave her a thumbs up inside my head.
“eh? .. y-yeah! It’s amazing right!? Fufun! Its fine to complement me more ya know~. hahaha ‘cuz I’m the best!”
---If only you wouldn't act like that.
She seems quite pleased from my applause. Hmm… ‘In ecstasy’ might be more accurate.
Hahaha How simple can this girl be. Conquering her in the future would be very easy, Hahaha!
[Ah wait, I really didn't thought of that okay! Promise! I'm just kidding when I said that! That’s Sasha in the background, yelling that she's not an easy woman. Of course I know that!]
“you see, Lyle-sama this is Magic, it is still an unexplained phenomenon, however, it is an omnipotent power which
can bring out the blessings of any object.”
And thus, because of getting carried away, she starts explaining what magic is. Perfect!
See, I really know it.
[Ug! Seriously stop that Sasha...phew, she's finally gone. Anyway, let's continue...]
I answered her with a beaming smile while showing my cutest expression. I then grabbed her dress as if urging her to continue.
Noticing my intentions, she lifted me and then put me on her lap.
“Prince Lyle, Magic is required using mana to create physical phenomena. Although Mana can’t be seen, but it is present in everything. From what her majesty taught me, us beings also store and use mana to live. By using the mana within our bodies we’re able to produce things like flame; a common magic.
Currently, there are different type of magic, some are using magic circle to use it, which you only need to pour mana to it. However, this required time and precision in drawing the magic circle. I also heard that there are also people using spirit magic though I don’t know much about them, they are…”
*Kabam*
Cutting Sasha in her explanation was the sudden burst of the door.
“What happened Sasha? Did something happen to my son?”
An anxious voice echoed in the room.
---Of course, It was none other than my beautiful mother.
“Eh? *cough* This servant greets Her Majesty! No, nothing. There is nothing wrong!”
“But *huff* the others heard your *huff* scream”
Beads of sweat was running from my mother’s face. It seems like the moment she heard from other people about Sasha’s scream, she frantically run from her study up to here.
Aah~ I can't help but felt moved.
“Just as her Majesty said, This lowly servant unconsciously did that!”
Hm? Now that I look at Sasha’s face, it went back to her previous emotionless robotic face as soon as mother came.
‘Oi, oi! You change too much. Don’t tell me you have something like split personality!’
“Why?”
As I was retorting Sasha’s change in my mind, my beloved and beautiful mother was still anxiously asking question to Sasha.
“I’m just surprised because Prince Lyle, ehem, young master suddenly called up my name”
“Eh? Really?”
Mother turned around and faced me. Looking at me with her eyes shining as if saying ‘say my name’ and was obviously expecting me to call her. And thus---
“Mama ---!“
I relent. She was moved to tears and suddenly hugged me so hard!
‘Again?’
And because of that she didn't put me down even while leaving outside, shouting to the other attendants for a celebration. Sasha quietly follows mother still with her emotionless face but sometimes I noticed a glimpse of smile
when nobody is looking around.
‘What a strange girl’ is what I thought. And that night, for the first time I left my room and saw various people dancing and celebrating.
