"This is the end of granting magic power to guild cards. Please wait a little longer while we register your card.

After winning the duel, Lakra is now a rank 2 adventurer, and his guild card will be issued.

This kind of paperwork takes a certain amount of time, but I guess that's part of the fun.

Fua......

If you're a normal adventurer, you'll be happy and excited when you're promoted to Rank 2. ...... Lakra is sighing and looking sleepy.

I'm not sure what to say. I thought you weren't very good with people skills, but my fears were unfounded.

"I don't think I'm good at it, sir. I don't think I'm good at it. I'm not as good at it as I usually am when I'm dealing with humans because I have to be careful not to take their lives.

It looked like you were getting it done quickly. ......

That's not true! If he moved from side to side, it would have gone straight to his head, so I had to stay alert until the moment of amputation.

Wow, I thought of that scene for a moment.

Should we assume that Masetta-dono was a good match just because he didn't overconfidently move his warding?

No, I think that if he had moved half-heartedly, he would have only lost his life, but the result would have been the same.

I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with this.

"There is no tangle, sir. I just cut it off from the top of the wards. If the warding magic receives a certain amount of impact or destruction, it will disappear.

You mean the entire warding? ......

The strength of the warding magic used by the clergy of the Yugra religion is an ironclad protection against rock-cutting attacks, and cannot be easily broken.

In the battle against the Purple Demon King, they were broken several times, but only because of their extraordinary physical abilities and dense magical power.

It's hard to believe that it can be destroyed only by magical attacks that are physically less dense.

I've heard that it's an application of warding magic, but what is it?

Well, normal wards are placed around the body, but in the case of amputation, there is no need to surround it, so it is activated in a flat form. Also, I make it thin and fast to make it sharp. You used it three times in the duel earlier for cutting purposes.

It's about deploying an ultra-thin ward at high speed and cutting with its momentum.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing.

I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to do this, but I'm sure you can.

I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm not sure if Lakra has any weaknesses that would allow him to break through that.

"I have many weaknesses. For example, I can't construct multiple spells at the same time.

That's surprising.

Building different spells at the same time requires a certain level of skill.

In the event that you've got a lot of money, you're going to need to be able to pay for it.

The knights of Tarz can do two, and Sir Ratzel can do three, on average.

There are those who specialize in magic who can construct as many as ten spells at once, but their strength in actual combat is not so great.

How many spells can you construct at once, Mixu?

"As for me, I can construct about five spells at a time. If you focus on simultaneous construction, you can go up to seven.

Wow, that's great! I always have one ...... and I can barely do two if I'm not in actual combat .......

I'm not a fan of multiple actions, but I didn't think that was the case in combat. ...... But still.

I'm sure you'll be able to understand why.

In the event you're not sure what you're doing, you may want to take a look at the following: "The expansion of the wards is an adjustment to the construction of the warding spell, so you only need to rebuild one spell. The disconnection was just a matter of activating it three times as fast as I could.

"Hmm, it looked like they were happening at the exact same time, but they were happening separately?

Yes, because once they were activated, you could move on to the next spell. Yes, you can move on to the next spell as soon as you activate it.

"Wow. ......

If that's true, then Lakra did cast three spells in less than a second. .......

I'm not sure what to make of this.

The problem of not being able to build more than one spell at the same time is hardly a weakness if the building speed is that high.

I've worked hard to learn various magic, but I still can't build at the same time, I'm afraid.

"I see. ....... Oh, and I see you've got some other tricks up your sleeve as well.

Wisdom?

"In our first conversation, you challenged my old acquaintance, Masetta, for not remembering you. I just thought it was a bit much to sneeze after the game was over.

"Well, I really don't remember that. ....... I don't really remember that. ...... I was really sleepy too.

"Oh my God, weren't you guys in the same class, in the same place, in friendly competition?

"Haha ......, no one has talked to me since I started training under Master Wucca.

...... Not even once?

"Well, yes, they never even met me face to face. I think it's because I made a lot of mistakes from the first day and everyone was disappointed in me. Oh, but now I remember. I'm sure that was the person who challenged me to a duel when I became a priest. I'll have to apologize later, haha. ......

I'm sure you'll be able to understand why.

Archbishop Ucka knew of Lord Lakra's abilities.

But he thought it was strange that no one else was appreciating it.

If Lord Masetta had witnessed Lord Lakra's training even once, he would have seen a glimpse of his ability.

But with that kind of ability, wouldn't those who fought in the same place have been aware of you after you went into battle?

But once you fought with them, they never spoke a word to you except when they were giving you orders. ......

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

It's not a problem to use magic on a one-off basis, but I have a habit of concentrating excessively when I use magic in actual combat. ...... If I'm not careful, I get sleepy all at once. If I don't take a break, I can fight for several hours straight. ......

I'm not very good at switching between the two.

But if that's the case, then your attitude towards Masetha was misleading.

I'm sure you have misled many people you have come into contact with in the past as well.

Since you have excellent insight, if you had explained that properly, you could have made a more decent .......

No, Lakra-dono is incapable of that.

He's just too clumsy and can't afford to do anything.

You don't even have enough time to turn around someone who hates you and clear up a misunderstanding.

How can those who don't pay attention to me know what I can't find out until I hear the details from them?

Even if others despise you, you can only continue to devote yourself to the training you can do, and no one understands you, and you are alone.

I kept improving myself to keep up with my brother, but Lakra-dono couldn't see anyone. .......

A cold sweat runs down my spine.

I'm sure he's strong.

He must be strong, pouring all his talent and growth into one thing.

Um, Mixu?

...... I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something.

I'm sorry, I was just thinking.

Lakra-dono's lackadaisical nature is probably due to his clumsiness and inability to take interest in many things.

Of course, it's not good for the world to talk about it openly. .......

I see, so your friend is a great ...... person for indulging Master Lakra to a reasonable degree.

Are you thinking?

It's just a little thing. You're a genius, aren't you?

You're a genius. ...... No, I'm not. I'm just a klutz. I'm just clumsy. It's people like Mr. Eckdruk who are really geniuses.

"Mister Eckdœk, you are certainly very dexterous, unlike Mister Rakura. ...... Didn't Mister Rakura completely defeat Mister Eckdœk?

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

I've seen him fight a few times, but I've never felt that he wasted his talent.

Rakura-dono, may I ask you to elaborate on that?

Hmm, you know that Wulfa-chan refers to only Ecdysium-san as san, right?

Of course. But isn't it because you are taking care of her in many ways, because of your talent?

If that's all, then so are Ilias-san, Mixu-chan, and the knights of Tarz. Wolfe is showing her respect. You're far ahead of me in your field of expertise, Exoik-san.

"Mmm, that doesn't quite make sense.

"Well, we talked about building magic at the same time, right? Do you know how many magic you can build at the same time?

I haven't asked Ecdysium directly, but I know that he can do a lot of ...... things.

You can also fly by weaving wings with chains, creating a thin membrane in the void, and making the specific gravity of the chains lighter than air. .......

I'm sure it's a lot.

I'm sure you've heard of it. And then he can manipulate them at will.

That's what your friend said about such an attack.

I didn't have a chance to fight with someone who can use curses and poisons, so I didn't have much impression of it.

...... Hmm?

I'm sure you've heard of it.

Yes, all of them are being constructed at the same time. I checked and there were over thirty.

......, you're safe.

It's all for naught if the chains don't touch. It's a waste of money.

◇ "How many spells can you build at once?

"How many spells can you build at once? I've counted up to 50 at the most, but never more than that.

Huh?

You're amazing, Exduk!

I was renting an inn and watching Wolfe practice building his magic when Gillista asked a question and then let out a strange scream.

I wondered if this was such a surprise to Gillista, who spoke in a stilted voice.

If you don't care about accuracy or skill, it's not that hard to get a few. In actual combat, I build up around ten to twenty curses and poisons to maximize killing power, and around thirty if I'm serious about killing someone.

"Exduk, you're not a magician, are you?

"Of course not, I've studied bodywork and strengthening, and I can use all kinds of weapons except chains.

It's hard to completely evade an opponent's attacks, and of course you've learned how to mitigate the damage when you're hit.

If you're a big demon, you'll need to strengthen your chains and use them for defense, otherwise you'll easily get a fatal wound.

You can't use a weapon that can close the gap carelessly.

Is there anything you're not good at?

I don't have any weaknesses in combat, but I don't like to fight with my bare hands. If you don't have enough magical enhancement, you'll hurt yourself when you attack, and you'll always be within range of your opponent when you attack.

Watching the battles of Wolfe and Iliad, I've always wondered how they can think to act in their opponent's range.

When the opponent is in a good position, you concentrate on evading him, and when he is out of rhythm, you attack with precision.

This is the way I feel most comfortable fighting.

"Even if you're a skilled magician, it's great if you can get 10.

"That's because you've refined each spell. If you're just building and incorporating, you can increase the number.

You can't do that with the wolfe. ......

The wolfe's magic output is too high. In your case, it would be more useful to increase the scale and quality of each one than to build multiple ones. But learning how to build more than one will give you a wider range of fighting styles, so there's no harm in training.

"Yes, I'll do my best!

"How dare this Lakra girl beat you?

Lakra is a genius.

Yes, I'm fighting mainly with magic, but Lakra has no idea how to win a magic fight.

That's how far apart we are.

It's hard to imagine a better genius than you, .......

I think you have more talent in magic building than Lakra.

"Urfe, Lakra's talent is not in building magic, or in holding magic.

Then what kind of talent is it?

"Lacula's strength is his ability to focus on one thing at a time. It goes without saying that it takes concentration to build and activate magic, but Lakra's concentration is always at the highest level, capable of creating magic at the highest efficiency and speed.

"......?

It seems that Wolfe doesn't understand much, which is understandable since he's never been in a magic-based battle before.

It's a little difficult to understand, so let me explain it from Wolfe's point of view. When you attack with magic enhancement, how many attacks do you think you can perform with confidence?

Um, one in ten.

"Well, that's about it. Even the best trained person can't always deliver the best blow. If the attack is close to that, you can increase the rate of occurrence by training, but that training will raise the bar even higher. In the case of Lakra, you can only cast magic at the highest level.

"...... Lakra is awesome!

"But, Exduk, if the level is always stable, isn't that adding or subtracting?

"That's what I thought at first, too, but Lakra is so clumsy. I'm not sure what to make of that.

"How extreme is it that the highest level of ...... is easier to produce?

Yes, Lakra is a man of extreme talent.

He may not be able to do as many things at the same time as I can, but if you were to compete with me on each and every spell, I would have no chance.

No matter how many spells I use, Lakra can surpass them all with a single spell.

If I build 10 spells at the same time, Lakra can build 10 spells in the meantime. The quality of the spells is all the more impressive to Lakra. I'm sure it's been honed through training, but you don't reach that point without talent.

"It's hard to believe that a girl of that caliber had such a bad reputation before, isn't it?

At least his guardian, Archbishop Ucka, was aware of Lacla's talent, but even so, Lacla must have been so unique that he was not recognized by the people around him.

But instead of regretting that he hadn't been able to make use of his talent until now, he should be glad that he now had the opportunity to do so.

At the very least, Lakra is fortunate to have someone close by who understands him.

...... That's what I could have said, though.

I'm sure it's because of my people, and I'm sure Lakra is well aware of that.

"Shishou is the most amazing!

"Yes, the brethren who can make use of the talents of others without individual talent undoubtedly surpass the individual. I'm sure they're working hard on the Tarz right now, and we'll have to work hard to keep up.

Yes!

What a hot team.

The knights have a strong influence.

There are few adventurers in Taze, where the knights have a strong influence.

The infamous Riod is unapproachable and Morgana is focused on taking outside orders.

Only the Schneites, who have the widest window of opportunity, have facilities in Taize.

That is why I am now visiting the Schneite guild in Taize.

He has chosen to join the Schneid and gather information.

Morgana and Riod are already in Quama, where the headquarters are, and everyone else is working.

I have no objection to that, but...

I'll take care of that. ......

But I don't think you can be an adventurer if you have no combat skills.

No, I don't have any fighting skills. But you know, I'm motivated! I'm not afraid of doing chores!

Adventurers are always in danger, even when doing chores.

Don't worry, you'll always have guards! They're very strong!

I've never heard of an adventurer with a constant guard.

As you can see, I feel sad when I see them desperately trying to negotiate with the receptionist.

I didn't expect to be rejected at the door by a Schneid who has the widest window.

I suggested that His Majesty prepare a letter of recommendation, but he said, 'No, it would be too conspicuous with a backer. I want to go in my own position alone.

I don't know what to say.

What is my position? .......

I'm not sure what to say, but I'll try my best.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

I think so too.
