[Day 8]

I think I have found an enemy, an adversary that could slightly compare to my biggest nesis, snow.

…It is magic!

Why is magic so hard to conjure?

It is horribly taxing.

I always saw characters in ani, light novels, or manga using magic so smoothly!

I should have asked for so cheat that could make it easy for to conjure magic…

I asked for overpowered magic, but not how to actually wield its power.

But even then, I am having trouble conjuring two different consecutive spells to finally launch a freaking ice knife into the direction I want!

Ugh.

I am an Ice Dragon, so my main affinity is Ice.

In fact, it is the only affinity I have.

When I learned Wind Attribute Magic, I thought things were going to beco easy, I would finally be able to launch the damn ice knife.

But no…

Well, I an… I can actually launch it now.

But not in the direction I want!

Every ti I concentrate my mind and imagination into the conjuration and manipulation of a gust of wind, the wind just goes elsewhere.

It is frustrating!

Okay, calm down.

Everything is okay.

I am… progressing.

Yes, let's put it that way.

There is only a single rabbit left.

I do not want to go out yet, every single night wolves are howling outside, and I think this morning I heard an incredibly loud roar that was definitely not a wolf…

It sounded like the roar of a bear, in fact.

I do not want to fight a bear.

And I hope I never et it.

I feel insecure now.

Although my wounds have finally healed, I am still a weakling.

There is no way of leveling up or anything of the sort, and nourishing my body with Mana is only getting so far, but it's really not working.

The only tools are my fangs, claws, scales, and magic… well, my breath too.

I have to sharpen them as much as I can.

I think that as long as I eat a ton of ice to fill my stomach and eat the rabbit slowly, I can extend this for three more days.

Three days… is all I have before I am forced to walk outside and find food.

Even with my cheats, I need food to trigger the Skills.

Immortal Body is not an almighty power that does not need the energy to take effect, sadly.

Like any other living being in existence, I require to eat food and accumulate calories.

Snow around the small cave I am staying in is not enough, in fact, it does not give any calories.

Through Ice Absorption, I can absorb a bit of mana and energy, but this energy is temporary, and it dissipates incredibly quickly, it does not fill my stomach, nor it gives proteins, calories, vitamins, and all the stuff you need to keep… well, living.

So grass patches are growing outside of the cave, so I have begun to eat them.

It was incredibly bitter, and it got stuck into my throat for a while… but it works, I can eat it, and… I feel like my mana regenerated quickly when I did.

This grass is special, as the description said that it was used as Cultivation Materials and was also preferred by ice-type monsters such as .

After taking out a few leaves of grass, I left them at my side as I began to once more practice magic.

Alongside this, I am also multitasking even more.

Yeah, it is taxing, but it works.

I am practicing my Dragon Breath, using it constantly without any aim.

If I keep repeatedly using it, maybe it will level up and be a bit deadlier, because it didn't even affect that rabbit…

Aside from that, I am practicing with my claws too, hitting a rock with them, the claws are incredibly hard, like steel.

I feel like they are getting sturdier slowly…

Maybe I can get a Slashing Claw Skill or so stupid things like that?

Also, I hit myself with my own tail.

Yeah, this is to practice my endurance.

I pour all of my Strength stats into each hit, so it actually hurts a little.

Like this, I making my mind go insane by the number of things I am doing.

But thanks to my High-speed Thought Processing, it works.

And as I do, I also concentrate two parts of my mind to conjure two different spells.

I have to create the ice knife, which cos rather smoothly now, and then, I have to concentrate the mana essence into a gust of wind that flows in the direction I want.

But without wind affinity, the wind seems to simply… not obey .

It is wild, I guess.

The nature of wind is different than that of ice.

Ice is calm, cold, composed, and it obeys when I put a lot of intent.

anwhile, no matter how much I order it to do sothing I want, the wind is wild, it does whatever it wants, and flows anywhere it wants, there are no boundaries for it.

Whenever I order it to go to the right, it goes to the left, whenever I order it to go in front, it flows right back into my face.

I also tried to use reverse psychology and asked it to flow into my face while aiming for it to disobey and do the contrary, flowing to the front, but it actually flew upwards.

It knows what I really want!

I cannot fake it!

Wind why are you such a Tsundere?!

I did not know I would be facing such a great foe so soon.

Although I am not fighting against a monster or sothing, I am fighting against ti, I need to get this done quickly.

But wind stops my path, and it does not obey .

I have to sohow make it obey .

I have to pour my very soul into making it obey .

This is… my greatest foe after snow.

I have to ta the wind.
