Princess Fischl

Chapter 29

Ten minutes after breakfast, I was standing in the courtyard of the dorm waiting for the teacher to arrive. And then, a few minutes later, I saw him walking towards me with a girl with chestnut-colored hair that is longer than her shoulders, a mole under her right eye, and a rather tired look. She wears a light lab coat over a light blue blouse and dark blue pants that reach her ankles, as well as light-colored high heels.

- I see you're already here. Let me introduce you to our beautiful doctor Shoko Ieiri. - the teacher introduced the girl to me.

- Hello, you can call me Fischl or Emi, it's nice to meet you Ieiri-san.

- Nice to meet you too. - the girl answered me with a slight smile.

- Well, come closer. - Gojo said, and I, realizing what exactly he was going to do, took off the blindfold, carefully watching the teacher's actions.

With the help of cursed energy, he drew a circle of strange symbols around me and Ieiri, and then, crossing his palms, he sharply clapped. As soon as the clap sounded, I, along with the teacher's former classmate, found myself in some deserted area, where one could see many craters and ravines stretching for huge distances into the distance.

- Here we are. - a second later, Satoru's voice tore me out of my contemplation.

- Well, did you manage to remember what I did? - the magician asked.

- Yes.

- Okay, first I'll tell you how our training will go today.

- First, I'll show you all the techniques that I consider necessary for memorization, naturally with a description of how they work. - the teacher held out his index finger, and then added a second finger and continued. - The second thing is what I asked us to accompany Shoko for. You are sorely lacking combat experience and, apparently, hand-to-hand combat skills, and therefore, we will correct this deficiency in the most direct way possible. By fighting. Don't worry, if necessary, Shoko-chan can even put her arm back in place. - They told me the training plan with a joyful smile.

- Em, maybe the battle should be postponed until at least the third point? - I asked nervously, I would not like to survive an amputation.

- Emi, have you forgotten how much time we have?

- No. Sorry, teacher, let's get started. - I answered confidently, suppressing my nervousness.

- Good. Let's start with something simple, something you should already be able to repeat. - The teacher began with a satisfied smile.

- Infinity is a neutral technique of infinity, embodying one of Zeno's aporias about Achilles and the turtle, in other words, any thing that approaches will stop and will never reach the user of this technique, but in fact the thing slows down due to the fact that it is not able to pass the distance tending to infinity. This technique can be used to protect against various attacks, be it sound or explosion, poison or even abstract attacks, such as mental-emotional effects or, as you already know, you can even resist the seal. Later, when you learn the reverse cursed technique, I will teach you how to make this technique work automatically, filtering attacks by speed, shape, mass, presence of cursed energy and other parameters, not letting through those things that did not pass the conditions of the technique. Neutral infinity can also be used as an attack, if the enemy is approximately equal physically, then he can be crushed by the pressure of the barrier, to the state of a bloody puddle. - Explaining how the technique works, Satoru Gojo threw a boulder above himself, showing how it, unable to bypass the barrier, stopped a few centimeters above the teacher's head, and then the same boulder was turned into dust by the pressure of infinity.

"Damn it! I just realized that I won't be able to safely return to Taivat until I master infinity on an automatic level. After all, I was transported to the moment when I should have already been hit by the attack of the readers of the abyss." - the realization came to me.

"What's wrong?" - the teacher asked, clearly noticing my slightly depressed mood.

"Nothing, I just decided that I will definitely master the reverse technique in the near future and fully master infinity. - I answered with new determination.

"Excellent. Well, and finally, an equally important part of neutral infinity is the ability to levitate by creating infinity between your feet and the surface, including the air. - having said this, he jumped slightly and remained standing in the air.

- Is everything clear to you at this point?

- Yes.

- Okay, let's move on. Cursed technique: blue - "gravitational force", an enhanced infinity technique obtained by enhancing Infinity and crossing it with negative natural numbers, thereby embodying such impossible situations as "- 1 apple", since in this case the conceptual impossibility of a negative distance allows you to create a magnet-like effect that forces the surrounding world to restore the correct order of things. With this technique, you can, for example, create tiny points of attraction around the limbs of enemies, causing them to twist and shrink. - Having said this, he pointed towards a small boulder and only thanks to my accelerated perception, I managed to see what seemed to be a spiral distortion on the stone, which quickly turned to dust.

- Also, with the help of this technique, you can move over long distances, - he instantly shifted 5 meters to the side, and then continued. - However, I must warn you that such movement is dangerous for ordinary people.

- And finally, something that is available to you, but in a very limited form due to the volume of cursed energy. A more powerful version of Blue. The point is to choose a point that will attract everything within a certain radius with great force, and then destroy it right up close. - This time, a huge blue sphere appeared at a short distance from us, which immediately began to literally tear out pieces of rock that were immediately destroyed when they hit the center of the technique, and then, for clarity, Satoru moved this technique around the area a little, showing that it is possible to change the position of the selected point.

- Sensei, why can my reserve be a limitation at all if the energy is essentially infinite thanks to the technique? - I asked the question that was so exciting to me.

- It's quite simple, although the costs become infinitely close to zero, but you still cannot instantly use more energy than your reserve. And the full version of blue just requires using your reserve to the maximum. Well, if it makes it easier for you, imagine a computer game where the character has a certain mana bar, and a certain skill cost. When using skills, your mana seems to instantly fill up, but if your mana limit is lower than required, you won't be able to use the skill, that's the same situation here.

- I see, in principle it's logical, otherwise you would be a real god.

- Exactly. And now let's move on to what is impossible to use the rest without. The reverse technique. This technique allows you to turn ordinary negative cursed energy into positive, thanks to which you can even grow limbs and naturally this energy is harmful to curses. Its principle is similar to mathematics, that is, if you multiply minus by minus you get plus. - having said this, he made a small scratch for clarity, which he immediately healed with the reverse technique.

- Hmm... Ieiri-san, can you please use the reverse technique on me, I want to check something. - After hearing Satoru's explanation, I decided to check something.

- Why? - The girl was surprised by such a request.

- Shoko, do as she asked please, I'm also interested in what she had in mind.

- Okay, as you wish. - Shrugging slightly, she came up to me and put her hand on my shoulder.

A moment later, I felt energy enter my body, which felt almost twice as strong as the cursed one, but was soft? I immediately tried to take control of some of this energy to direct it to the source, but I failed and then decided to go the other way. I took some energy from my source and directed it to the positive cursed energy.

[Attention, a new energy subtype is available: positive cursed energy.]
