The Magus of Genesis

"Dase the hippo balls, the human lizard, and the sita. If you don't, its sita little zo."

If Ken's singing echoed in the village, the burning tree caught fire without incineration.

"I'm so used to it."

The kind of song Ken was singing was now being heard from all over the village.

Singing does not have the effect of increasing its power as a spell in particular.

But it seems that spells with simple verses are easier to remember than simply memorizing them round, and even those who still can't read the words could remember a number of spell songs.

As a result, the majority of villagers have now mastered magic to such an extent that it produces real flames.

That and this is thanks to Eye and Ken for actually learning useful levels of magic and showing their practicality to the adults.

Everyone can get the fire out, so I don't even have to watch carefully to make sure the fire doesn't go out while I'm on it.

Fish placed in a simple freezer became preserved for about three days as long as the fire was passed after thawing. In other words, it's better once every three days to go get the fish.

In addition, he manipulated the trees to take nuts that were high up even for children, and even caught small birds and beasts.

The food situation improved considerably, and the adults began to learn magic by mixing with their children, albeit at a rate of once every few days. Words, of course.

The village life was extremely smooth and full of sails.

- Excluding just one concern.

"Sensei."

I was worried about what was going on.

The man who has spoken out is also considered to be the oldest man in this settlement.

It was Mr. Guy, Eye's father.

... The sixteen names of the villagers were all given by me after all, but my lack of naming sense is terrible.

"Cali, Ike. Kulka."

"…… right. I'll be with you."

Well, it's not a problem to think about or solve.

I had a change of mood and I decided to follow the Guys' hunt.

They remembered the words, so I could hunt with them, too. The hunting itself is overwhelmingly better for the Guys, but with me, I can make up for their lack of firepower. We often hunted together these days because we can also aim at big men who can't hunt with stone spears.

"Doctor! I'm coming too!

As soon as we tried to leave the village, an eye flew in.

"No, Da."

But Mr. Guy sticks his arm out all the way and stops her.

"Cali, otoko, sul. Onna, Matsu"

"But..."

Eye looked at my face in the tone of Guy who wouldn't let me say yes or no.

Their society is a patriarchal society in which the father has absolute power. I've been involved with an irregular named me, but I've been missed before, but I'm not supposed to go hunting if I'm a woman.

On the contrary, it is thus unacceptable to defy the Father's will in itself.

Anyway, she can't even complain about being offered a sacrifice.

There are some things that I think I would treat as treating things, but it is also something that they have decided to do with their own rationality. At least it wasn't something I could say with my ego.

"It's okay. I'm gonna get some big prey, just wait for me, okay?"

"……… Yes"

To my words, Eye leaned down and nodded reluctantly.

"Take care!

"Don't be a jerk."

With Eye and Nina's voice on their backs, we headed hunting.

Their customs and my concerns actually coincide.

Not with regard to the status of women.

It simply means that the number of people is too small.

The number of people in the village is seventeen, even if me and Nina cannot be counted.

The breakdown is that eight of them are children, five adults are men and four women.

The fact that there are eight children for nine adults means that the population will be subtly reduced when generations take turns like this. In this world where there is not even a concept of medicine in the first place, there is no guarantee that we will all grow up to adulthood properly.

Women who give birth and raise children to maintain the population are of paramount importance, so hunting and other dangerous things cannot be allowed to happen. The preemptive custom that women should protect their homes is not reasonable here, at least. Anyway, it's the time before that.

That said. No matter how much I think about it, I can't have children with them, let alone have them as dragons. I have confirmed that this body is a man even in this life.

All I can do is protect them, hunt for their prey, and develop as much magic as I can while I live.

"…… that?

When I was thinking about not having such a benefit, I realized that at some point I was walking a long way.

"Maybe you're leaving the woods?

Asked, Mr. Guy snorted.

Basically, me and them, we went hunting in the woods.

Sometimes it is simply close to the cave on which it is based, but sometimes it is even more difficult to hunt on the plains.

First of all, there are very few trees that Nina can manipulate to her side compared to the forest.

She can also manipulate grass nowadays, but with grass so powerless compared to trees, it's almost impossible to capture a large beast living in a meadow.

I thought it might be easy to catch me if I jumped out of the sky, but this also ended up on foot. They can see me flying in the sky. No, I hid in the shadows and it was very difficult to find them first, and flying doesn't work the more speed I get out. It was very difficult to rapidly descend and capture the beasts running around if they did.

The situation around here is the same for the Guys, which is why they were basically supposed to be hunting in the woods, too.

We leave the woods, passing by the stronghold that Me and Nina once built in the woods (we were just away for a few months, but it was already about to break). It's a vast meadow that stretches out there.

Speaking of which, I feel like this is the first time I've ever stepped through a forest without flying at all.

Surprisingly, it didn't take that long to get through the woods.

It's not as good as Nina, who doesn't catch one leaf in her hair even if she puts it through the bushes, but Guys seems to be used to walking in the woods at a rate not so different from when walking on the flat.

Rather, it was fast enough for me to get my feet together.

Once out on the meadow, the Guys start walking without getting lost.

I can't tell in my eyes if there's any destination, or if I'm walking appropriately. Anyway, I'll follow them with faith.

"Look."

Then quickly, Guy raised his voice and speared.

Sure, that should have been a signal when I found my prey, but I have no idea where he is. Looking around for a moment, they walked out again. It's a very normal way to walk, not to lay low and hide, not to run in a hurry.

Was it a mistake to find the prey?

As I twisted my inner neck and followed, I noticed abruptly.

Mr. Guy was finding his prey. But that's not the prey itself.

That's the footprint.

It only looks like the ground where the grass grew sparsely to me, but Mr. Guy frequently gives in to check the ground.

"Look."

Walking like that, about two hours in a physical sense. Mr. Guy again, but now it is time to take the prey into his eyes and declare it.

"Sensei, ita"

And politely, he taught me in Japanese, too.

"Yeah… I see it. It's okay."

There's no way I wouldn't rather not notice.

"Are you really going to hunt that one?

Ask just in case, and they'll all snort.

"No, because, that"

Listening to the beating of Shin, I turn up.

It's been a long time since I looked up at a creature other than my mother.

"There's like a little building, right?

There was not yet anyone in this world who would understand that word, which likened the giant beast.
