Kageno Minoru and Kageno Sora are both college students, already over 18 years old.
Kageno Minoru was very dissatisfied with his strength.
He was thinking about how to make himself stronger.
Kageno Sora remained silent beside him.
Because of this, Kageno Minoru started to become deranged, repeating "magic, magic" all the time, except during class.
On the night three days later, Kageno Minoru, in his quest for magic, began to bash his head against a rock.
"Magic! I want magic!"
At this moment, a light flashed in the distance.
"It's magic! That's magic!"
Kageno Sora, who was nearby, took off running, faster than Kageno Minoru.
This was a race against time; any delay and he would miss the big truck to the other world.
"Magic! Magic! I'm coming!" Kageno Minoru shouted hysterically.
He burst out of the bushes, only to be met by a large truck.
Although Kageno Sora had started running first, Kageno Minoru's long-term training made him faster, and the two ran side by side.
Kageno Sora leaped into the air, using all his strength to ram his head into the truck.
It looked exactly like a rocket headbutt.
He was practically trying to ensure his own death.
At the same time, he reached out and grabbed Kageno Minoru's arm, to prevent the possibility of them transmigrating to different worlds.
A white light flashed.
...Kageno Sora felt like he had slept for a long time, waking up from the darkness.
Kageno Sora opened his eyes with all his might.
Beside him was another infant, just like him.
Kageno Sora looked at the middle-aged man next to him, who was half-bald.
"Great! The transmigration was successful!"
Kageno Minoru and Kageno Sora exchanged glances. Both recognized who the other was.
"Claire always wanted a younger brother, didn't she? Now she has two! She'll definitely be very happy!"
"Why aren't these two children crying?" the young woman asked, puzzled.
Hearing the young woman's words, Kageno Minoru and Kageno Sora both burst into loud sobs.
Just then, Claire walked in.
"Are these my younger brothers? Wonderful! I have younger brothers!"
...Time flew by; in the blink of an eye, many years passed, and both were now over 18 years old.
Kageno Xi De was Kageno Minoru's current name.
And Kageno Sora's name was Kageno Xi Nuo.
Being twins, their names were quite similar.
Both of their magic powers were incredibly strong.
Xi De was the elder brother, and Xi Nuo was the younger brother.
During the day, the two honed their swordsmanship.
One would slash, then the other would slash; to outsiders, it looked completely like two inexperienced fighters pecking at each other.
In reality, every time they swung their swords, countless afterimages appeared, so fast that the people around them couldn't see clearly.
Both deliberately held back their strength, not making too much noise.
Moving at extreme speed while holding back strength required extremely high control over their power.
At this moment, Claire walked over.
"Although you two are practicing very hard, your current strength is still too weak!"
"Both of you attack me together!"
Claire held a wooden sword and looked at them.
Xi De and Xi Nuo exchanged glances.
The two rushed towards Claire, one from the left and one from the right.
Claire slashed at Xi De, hitting his sword, and Xi De was sent flying.
She then turned and slashed at Xi Nuo.
Xi Nuo stopped with a sudden brake, and taking advantage of Claire's missed slash, he swung his sword.
But Claire quickly retracted her sword and struck Xi Nuo's sword, sending Xi Nuo flying as well.
In reality, when the two approached Claire, they had already exchanged blows three times.
Claire was completely unaware.
"Big sister is amazing!" Xi De got up and shouted.
"Yes! Big sister is truly amazing!" Xi Nuo replied.
Claire always felt something strange, as if something had passed in front of her several times, but she saw nothing.
Then Claire sparred with her two younger brothers for a while.
"These two children haven't made any progress!"
At night, Xi De, transformed into The dashing bandit killer, began to intercept and kill some bandits.
Originally, Xi Nuo also wanted to go out and find bandits, but his luck was a bit poor, and he couldn't find any.
Acting with Xi De would lead to problems with dividing the spoils.
Xi De liked art pieces, but Xi Nuo didn't like them at all, and money was useless to him.
Kageno Territory was on the edge of the country, and there was nothing good to buy there.
So, Xi Nuo simply gave up, letting Xi De go find bandits to play with. However, every day Xi Nuo would ask Xi De if he had found anything special, as he wouldn't miss Alpha.
Night fell, and Xi Nuo, covered in magic, used slime transformed by magic to make himself appear as an adult. He put on a black mask.
He came alone to a forest.
Not long after, Claire walked over.
"Master!"
Unable to find thieves, Xi Nuo began to act as a master to his sister, Claire.
On a dark and windy night, he directly kidnapped Claire, then gave her a good beating.
He said things like Claire's talent was very high, and he wanted her to be his disciple.
Claire, of course, refused this person of unknown origin.
Xi Nuo didn't give up; instead, he forcibly took Claire out every night for training.
Over time, Claire realized that Xi Nuo wasn't a bad person, and began to call him Master.
Claire was a good sister. Xi Nuo still liked her very much. Of course, it was a familial affection.
Increasing Claire's strength a little was also a good thing.
"Today, we won't do physical training, but rather practical combat to test your changes over this past month!"
"Yes, Master!"
"Then I'm coming, Master!"
Claire gathered magic throughout her body and rushed towards Xi Nuo at extreme speed.
Just as she was about to get close, she quickly retreated.
And Xi Nuo's wooden sword cut through the air.
"You've learned the feint well!"
Anticipating the opponent's attack to interrupt one's own movement, and striking during the opponent's attack's opening.
This was what Claire had learned from Xi Nuo during the day.
Claire, taking advantage of the moment Xi Nuo cut through the air, came behind Xi Nuo and slashed at his back with her magic-infused sword.
Xi Nuo spun his sword, blocking the attack with his sword behind his back without even looking.
"Your attack intent is too obvious! Your killing intent is not hidden at all, it's too obvious!"
"A surprise attack should hide killing intent!"
Xi Nuo turned and slashed at Claire.
Claire blocked with her sword horizontally.
However, the anticipated attack did not come.
Claire suddenly felt something against her neck; she looked down and saw it was Xi Nuo's wooden sword. Xi Nuo had appeared behind Claire without her knowledge.
"I lost!"
"You've improved quite a bit compared to a month ago! But you're still too weak!"
"For the next month, we'll begin training your magic control!"
...Every night, Claire was trained to exhaustion by Xi Nuo.
When she returned home, she saw Xi Nuo.
"Big sister, you must be tired from training! Here, have some water!"
Xi Nuo handed her a cup of water.
"Thank you!"
Claire drank it.
"Big sister, you're tired, let me give you a shoulder massage!"
"Then I'll trouble you, Xi Nuo!"
Xi Nuo massaged Claire's shoulders.
Claire clearly felt all the fatigue from the training disappear.
