I Already Know That My Magic Power Is Ridiculously High! Now I Just Need To Get A Lovely Bride - Chapter 16

“Down?”

“Yes. When someone who isn’t used to the Stella-class ‘Mamatten’ gets caught in ‘Mamatten,’ they get high on a sense of omnipotence. ‘Down’ refers to the moment when the ‘Mamatten’ is released, and the overwhelming burden of the super enhancement hits all at once.”

“I see.”

“Especially this time, since it was the first battle for Lord Minashiro, many of the personnel sent were newcomers, which is why everyone ended up like that. Even so, there are too many casualties…”

No wonder there were so many young people in the assembled troops.
Did my father prepare the new recruits for me to use easily in the future?
Describing him as a foolish university student might not have been entirely wrong.

“Then shouldn’t we avoid using ‘Mamatou’ too often?”

“No, it’s necessary for newcomers to experience this burden. By going through ‘Mamatou’ multiple times, you’ll gradually adapt… but it’s utterly pathetic. Hey, why aren’t you standing up, you lot…!”

Getlard will keep moving with energy.
How about overworking too much?
I also worked at a black company in my previous life, so I understand very well the feelings of those who have to follow a boss who doesn’t know how to hold back.

However, once I became the top, I realized that now I am in a position where I have to exploit those below me.

(Indeed, humans are creatures with deep karma.)

I stroke the gold coins in my pocket and then raise my voice.

“Everyone, just a little more patience! The enemy’s main force has lost its meat shield and is now on the brink of collapse. We’ll make sure to deal with them before they head towards the Ronshant Fortress! Alright, let’s shift into a higher gear!”

I raised my voice and significantly increased the output to grant “Magic Wrapping” to the five hundred cavalrymen.
The heartbeat reverberates throughout, like the sound of a thump.
My magical power flows into the bodies of the military officers, and red veins appear all over their bodies, as if they were blood vessels.

“Ugh, whoa! This is bad, my power is overflowing and I can’t stop!”
“Ahh, ahh, ahh! Ohh, ohh! Nngh, it works!”
“Ughhh! Ngah, ngah, ngah! It’s absolutely the best!”

“……”

The military officers started behaving strangely, as if they had taken some dangerous drug.
As expected, I became worried and asked Getraldo.

“Hey Getraldo, is this really okay?”

“Ohhh, what incredible power! Lord Minashiro, you have nothing to worry about at all! Come, come, come!”

“Eeeeeee!”

Getraldo, with a particularly striking red streak that made him look even less human, leaned in closer, and out of sheer terror, I clutched the gold coins with all my might.

“Minashiro-sama, what happened? Let’s hurry and put an end to them! Come on, come on, come on, come on!”

I, as if escaping from the cheers of Getraldo, shout in a high-pitched voice.

“Shu, deployment~~!”

Wrapped in the red magical power that stretches high into the sky, we begin our march towards Barbatos.
Thanks to the “Magic Binding Doping,” my movement became super fast, but in exchange, I was left with an unforgettable trauma.

A few minutes after starting high-speed travel.
We finally captured Barbatos and his group.

“Minashiro-sama, the target is in sight.”

“Alright, let’s scatter them like this! I want to get home quickly!”

“No, I believe we should observe the situation a bit longer. Even if they are the Stellar-class, there is a possibility of sustaining serious injuries, even for someone as capable as you, Your Excellency.”

Getrad’s proposal is annoying…
In other words, the army of people with red-veined faces is terrifying, so I want to wrap this up quickly.
Besides, to be honest, I had a feeling that if we clashed like this, we could take down Barbatos right at the start.

“Yeah! No need to worry, more importantly, let’s hurry up and deal with Barbatos…”

“Minashiro-sama, let us calm down and talk for a moment.”

Getlard interrupted my words and began speaking in a relaxed tone, making me feel as if I had been doused with cold water.
It seems that I had been too involved.
It seems that I lost my sanity due to the overwhelming fear.
Getlard is probably trying to calm his mind before the decisive battle.

“…It seems like I was high too.”

“You have a good understanding of yourself. It’s only natural for a first battle to go that way, more or less. This time, it seems you caught the attention of those behind you.”

“Ah, that’s exactly right.”

And you too, Getraldo.

“With ordinary Stella-class magic, it wouldn’t be like that. To be able to exude such fighting spirit from allies is just like the legendary ‘Falling Star Master’.”

Getlard says with a growling expression.

“The Falling Star Master, the Falling Star Warrior? Wasn’t that just a fairy tale?”

“No, he was a real person. He appeared a long time ago and unified this Atla continent with absolute power. The teachings of the Starfall Master are still passed down through generations, so we should consider him to have existed.”

I see, I was a bit lacking in studying history.
As for the “teaching” that Getlard mentioned, I’ll study it from now on… but I feel a somewhat probing gaze from Getlard.
As I thought, he’s probably curious about why I possess such immense magical power.
