「Can you see what’s on my shoulder?」
As I approached Seki-san, he pointed out to his right shoulder and asked me .
Eh, there is nothing on his shoulders though . Just plain air .
Am I supposed to be seeing something? This could be a criterion for a mage ……
Just to be safe, I took a good long look at it, but I still couldn’t see anything .
「Nope, sorry . There seems to be nothing」
「Is that so, well then, how about checking on Ryouki?」
The subject of the conversation, Ryouki-san, nodded deeply, and after staring in a distance for a second, he held up his right hand .
「What do you see on this side?」
I tried taking a look at Ryouki-san’s right hand . Likewise, there wasn’t anything, just empty space .
「…… I don’t see anything special」
「Do you not see a glittering light?」
I knew mages would be able to perceive something there . A glittering light huh . Still, I can’t see it .
「Sorry . It’s just normal to me」
「… Is that so」
Ryouki-san murmured to himself while giving a complete disappointed look . Similarly, Seki-san face looked like a disappointed one .
Mm, I understand what’s going on . I understand but…
Seki-san put on the mysterious face that TV hosts would put on before a big reveal, and announced the verdict .
「Village chief, unfortunately, this child isn’t a mage」
Aaa~
The villagers strongly sighed, and their dejected voices could be heard . Even the chief’s shoulders started to slump down .
I was kinda afraid to even look at the reaction of father and mother .
—————
The banquet was over, and on the very same day, the village chief provided a vacant house for the mages to stay for a night before travelling again .
The mages were compelled by the country to follow a messy schedule so they had to leave after 1 night . Also, they wanted to spread to other villages what they saw in this village – the groundbreaking farming tools that were made by Ryou-chan .
…… . Speaking of which, are the fields alright now? The mages came and made the crops grow all of a sudden but, have they made any changes to the quality of the soil?
I am thinking of making full use of the information of my previous life to improve the quality of life for the villagers . It might be possible, however, it is possible that this world may have no need for such scientific knowledge and information .
It’s like “With magic, this world is complete” .
Somehow, I felt like the purpose in my life was lost . My heart aches .
Still, even then, there should be something I can do .
If I work hard at what I can do, I can make my family, the villagers and everyone else happier .
I have no doubt that I would be happier this life .
