"You must be Celia, the magician closest to the goddess on this continent."
"You are so interesting. This is the first time I have seen such a demon. Even..." Celia grinned and looked at him with a playful smile: "You know who I am, but you dare to appear in front of me? Are you here to challenge me?"
"No, I am here to become my apprentice."
"It's ridiculous. The demons want to become my apprentices. Although I am an elf, I am also a human in a broad sense. I am an irreconcilable party with the demons. You actually want to become my apprentice? Is your head okay? No, you don't even have horns. There must be something wrong, right? We are completely different races that are completely hostile to each other!"
".... What you said does make sense, but I think I am normal. In addition, at least I know very well that you don't want world peace, right?"
"Oh?" His firm words made Celia squint unconsciously.
"If you wish, you could have achieved it long ago."
"You speak as if you know me very well."
"I have done some research."
"I can see that you have killed many people, so why should I teach you magic?"
"I am actually worried about this problem."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"You have to give it a try first."
".........Very good, I like it." At the end of the long silence, Celia clapped her legs and laughed happily:
"——What will the demons I teach become? Let me wait and see."
"Uh...Although it is a bit strange for me to ask, isn't this a bit strange?" Although he had expected it after the prior investigation, this reason still made him dumbfounded.
"Very interesting, isn't that all? Just tell me what kind of magic you want, anything is fine!"
"Anything is fine?"
"The magic of immortality."
"——How can there be such magic?" He just blurted it out, and Celie rolled her eyes and retorted: "If it can be done, will humans still die?"
"... That's right." He closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and then he remembered the biggest problem he encountered on the battlefield - as a magician, his body was too weak!
So, he asked, "Is there such magic that can make my body as strong as a warrior?"
"There really is such magic in the mythological era, the magic you want."
"Really?"
"Really, it allows magicians to freely convert magic power and exert the combat power of warriors of the same level. It can be said to be a very useful magic. It is also very effective at critical moments, but..."
"But?"
"I don't know how to do it." After a long pause, she spread her hands very casually, making Ash almost want to hit her: "No, wait a minute? Don't you know everything?"
"I have mastered almost all human magic, but this is almost not all, and this magic itself is not invented by humans, but by a great demon. I have studied it for thousands of years and still can't succeed, but I can give you all my achievements through "transferring magic."
Transferring magic means directly handing it over to others at the cost of losing all magic... Even if the magic is incomplete, Celia can transfer it.
Although Ash wanted to complain again at first, since it was the magic of the great demon, he couldn't say anything.
After all, the unique magic mastered by any great demon clan is essentially not something that humans can learn, because the magic of other races and demon clans is actually not the same thing at all.
Humans, including elves, just try to simulate the magic effects of demon clans, but the casting process of both sides is completely different, and many changes cannot be reproduced.
In layman's terms, even if the casting principle can be studied, there is no magic organ of demon clans, let alone the great demon clans, and its uniqueness is completely impossible for humans to reproduce.
(PS: This point is specifically mentioned in the original book, and it is emphasized that killing magic is an exception. Killing magic is too efficient and too simple, so it is excellent, but it also leads to a very low threshold for use, even humans can use it.)
The Buried Flyllian: Thousand Years to the Present: Chapter 14 A Master and Disciple Who Share the Difficulty
At first, Ash thought that this apprenticeship might have some strange tests, but the result was... unexpectedly simple.
It was unexpectedly easy to complete the apprenticeship, and it was unexpectedly easy to obtain the magic of the great demons in the mythical era. And she just stayed here and read other books of Celia.
The reason... There is nothing special.
Celia has the ability to end the war, but she is unwilling to do so. Even if it is not necessary, she will basically not take action against the demons.
According to Ash's research before coming, the consciousness of the elves is actually quite weak. She prefers to maintain a state of war rather than world peace. Unless there is a huge disaster, she will choose to stop it depending on the situation... or she may not stop it.
It was precisely because of considerable confidence that Ash ventured to this place, and it was only because Ash made her feel interesting that she took him as a disciple, and...
"Ash, since you have become my apprentice and I have also accepted a new disciple, you should quickly prepare a big meal and celebrate together!" Celia, who had always wanted to be freed from the kitchen, waved her little hand and summoned her new apprentice without hesitation, but...
Ash, who was still looking at her collection of books, looked up and stared at her, with no intention of taking action.
This immediately made her unhappy: "Didn't you hear what I said?"
"No, I was just wondering, are you serious, Celia?"
"What do you mean? I taught you magic, but you don't even want to cook for me?"
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't. Of course, if you want to taste the characteristics of the demon clan, I don't mind showing off my skills."
"Demon clan characteristics?"
"We actually eat raw food, but can your stomach really bear it? If you can bear it, I don't mind giving you some."
Ash said seriously, but he didn't even know what he was doing. He stood up silently and planned to prepare pork sashimi for her.
This made Celia wrinkle her face at the taste of raw meat: "Forget it... Forget it, I'll do it myself!"
"By the way, I'm actually different. I like to eat cooked meat."
"Who asked you, get out! Go out and eat your demon specialties!"
"No, I can also eat barbecue."
"...Are you too lazy to do it? Are you lying to me on purpose?!"
"Believe me, I'm thinking about your health."
............
Although Celia wanted to order Ash to work, it was a pity... Even if she tried to let him cook later, the food he cooked was so unpalatable.
Tried to teach, but three years passed in the blink of an eye...
"....Celiai, add some chili, believe me, this meat is delicious with chili!"
"No, I don't eat spicy food." Celiai stirred the spoon and scolded without looking back: "Also! Why is it that I am the only one teaching you, but you are here to give orders?"
"Stop talking like that, why do the master and the apprentice care so much?" He readily ignored Celiai's dissatisfaction and said to himself: "Less salt, your taste is too strong."
"...You are just a demon, but you are quite picky."
"I am worried that you are old and eating too strong taste will easily cause high blood pressure."
"...I have lived like this for thousands of years and it's okay! On the contrary, you have only been here for three years, and my blood pressure has risen a lot!"
Why did just teaching become my own cooking skills, improve in teaching, and then...be responsible for catering work?
Although she was usually too bored, and Ash's ideas were really good, she was still quite unhappy because of the inexplicable sense of emptiness, and she turned her head and glared at Ash fiercely.
Being almost familiar with the habits of this loli elf teacher, Ash naturally raised his hands, smiled and retreated silently, trying not to let the angry teacher hit him out.
.........................
The days of eating and drinking for free have their limits after all. Although the elves' tolerance is always high and the time dimension is different from that of humans, in the third year, Celia finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to force him to cook.
And she changed it to guiding him from the side, and even secretly vowed to teach him to be an excellent cook so that she would not have to cook anymore.
".....Yes! Flip it like this, and add more seasoning. Hey! Don't think I didn't see it! No chili! If you dare to put chili when I'm not paying attention, I'll stuff them all into your mouth!"
"You are so rude, but do you think it's reasonable for us to roast the whole lamb without adding any chili?"
"I'm the master, and if I say no, it's no! Don't talk back."
Looking at the disciple squatting in front of her flipping the grill, Celia raised her leg and kicked his butt lightly, and also slapped off the chili powder he just picked up.
"Tsk, the old people nowadays are really unreasonable..." Ash smacked his lips and muttered softly, and then broke off the lamb leg, wanting to taste it without chili first.
But when he pulled it off, his hands were burned and he couldn't stand it. He kept switching his hands to avoid being burned, and subconsciously turned around and threw it over: "--Quick! Quick! Celia!! Hot, hot, hot!! Take it quickly!"
"Huh? Uh--It's so hot~!! So hot~~~!"
Celia, who didn't react for a while, took it subconsciously, and her face suddenly changed due to the burn. She kept switching her left and right hands, and reflexively pushed it back.
Based on the principle of not wasting, he subconsciously took it again, but quickly stuffed it back:
"No! Don't give it to me! It's very hot!"
"--It's so hot!! Hot?! You kid... do you think I'm not afraid of heat?!"
After another round, Celia reacted, and while switching her left and right hands, she quickly threw the whole lamb leg to the ground in a frozen state.
After successfully handling the hot lamb leg, Ash couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead: "Huh... That was close, my hand almost blistered."
"... Yes, you are fine, but..." Celia's face was speechless, her two red hands were hanging in the air, and she looked at him as if she wanted to strangle him to death on the spot, gritting her teeth and said: "--My hand is already blistered!"
......
....

(PS: The remaining chapter will be around midnight)
The Buried Flyllian: Thousand Years to the Present: Chapter 15: Celia refuses to be a parasite
Celia's curse-like whisper made Ash glance at his red hands, and then he turned his eyes away silently, pretending that nothing had happened, and changed the subject:
"...Ah, speaking of which, can the roasted lamb leg still taste good after being frozen?"
"I haven't tried this, so I don't know, but I know that if I don't give you an explanation today, you will definitely not have a good ending." After all, she has lived for thousands of years. Celia smiled and didn't intend to end the topic just like that, forcing him to raise his hands and surrender: "Okay... Actually, I feel it's hot."
"Am I not afraid of being hot?!"
"They say that old people with thick calluses on their hands are not afraid of pain."
"Ah, what a coincidence... I also heard that the demons are thick-skinned and not afraid of being beaten." Celia's face showed the brightest smile so far. Smile:
"Let's change today's class to a magic attack and defense class. How about I fight you and you run away?"
"I refuse!"
"Tell me your reason."
"Because you will definitely take revenge!" He pointed at Celia while backing away, trying to stop her revenge and said with emotion and reason: "And think about it! Celia, your well-behaved disciple worked hard to cook for you, shouldn't you be touched at this time?"
"Well-behaved? Haha! Haha! You are so funny! Although I don't know how you have the nerve to say these two words, I am really touched now. As a reward for guessing correctly, I will give it to you..." Celia's hands followed the dark flames that emerged, and she grinned with a hideous smile: "--The fire of hell!"
Boom--! !
The temporary barbecue stall outside the ruins was engulfed in flames in an instant.
Yash took advantage of the chaos to escape, but Celia, who was still full of hatred, bombed it wildly.
In just a blink of an eye, the surrounding forests were destroyed.
..........................
Another half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
After eating the meal that Celia had prepared reluctantly, in order to explore what other powerful elves there were in this era, Ash planned to go out to the elf village in the neighboring country that Celia had told him about, and wanted to see the elves of this era.
"Celia, I'm going on a long journey, so you don't have to prepare my meal recently."
"... Am I your mother? I wanted to drive you away before, a guy who eats and drinks for nothing and does nothing! It's better to say..." Celia on the throne was displeased at first, but then a happy look appeared on her face: "--Don't come back now if you go out!"
"Don't say that, once a teacher, always a mother, in my heart you are--Wow?!"
Before he finished speaking, a strong hurricane interrupted his speech and blew him out of the hall.
