107 Part 2
Rhea and I have it too. Neither of us can use magic, so what does this an?
It seems you dont necessarily have to be a magic user in order to have this aura on you.
Is this what you use in order to cast your spells?
Yes. Whenever Im outside the dungeon I use mine. However, inside the dungeon, the dungeon itself lends its strength too.
The dungeons walls and floor also had this thin aura around them.
Haruki could understand why Karen would say that the dungeon would lend her its strength.
Haruki nodded as he scratched his chin.
With this, it would be safe to assu that the concept of MP doesnt exist.
What do you an?
Up until now, I had thought that you could use magic because you had MP, but if everyone has this aura and its not sothing only magic users have, does this an that everyone can use magic? Like we all have the foundation for it, but no one else has been able to develop it.
Perhaps it is not magic by itself but sothing you transform into magic when you use it, Karen.
So rather than calling it MP, or magic points, it would be better to call it vitality, or energy
Vitality already existed in the Skill Tree, but it had nothing to do with magic.
So would it be better to call it energy?
To be able to see this energy was a happy side-effect of enhancing Harukis mask.
Haruki couldnt use magic. However, if this aura was so kind of raw energy that Karen could change into magic, then there would be a chance that it could be used in other ways.
Like, a magic sword of sorts
Haruki gasped.
A magic sword!
What a strong presence would sothing like that have!!
I need to put all of my efforts into being able to use this
Harukis eyes fired up.
Haruki took out his Magic Sword and put all of his strength into his fist.
However, there was no change in the aura that surrounded his body.
Hey, Karen. How do you make your staff shine Umm How do you charge it with energy?
Lets see Its like pouring the power inside towards the staff. Ah, I said power, but I dont an physical strength.
Not physical strength
In other words, there was no point in putting effort through the muscles.
Hmm-
Haruki closed his eyes and began to focus.
He made a ntal image of the aura that surrounded his body, and then he imagined it flowing towards the Magic Sword.
Oh?
When he did that, he could feel a slight sensation of sothing moving a little.
However, that sensation vanished instantly, perhaps because he wasnt focused enough.
Once again this ti with his eyes wide open he put a lot of effort into imagining his energy flowing towards the Magic Sword.
Then, sothing moved inside his body.
It was almost as if he could feel his energy flowing out from his body and into the Magic Sword.
Then, an aura as thin as a leaflet began to surround the Magic Sword as well.
The mont Haruki noticed the change, the aura disappeared.
Hmm. Its very difficult.
It gets easier as you get used to it. I wasnt very good at it in the beginning.
Did you think you were casting spells back then?
Haruki questioned Karens words in his mind, but didnt say anything.
Of course, there would be both skilled and unskilled swordsn and magic users. Haruki hadnt considered that Karen would have been unfamiliar with magic at first.
It was enough to see Karens charged staff attack to realize just how useful energy-based attacks were.
If he were able to do sothing like that Then Haruki would be able to cut through a giant tree with a short sword!
[Look at that man, slicing through large monsters with a short sword!]
[Who is that?]
[The adventurer, Air!]
[Wow, look at that strong presence!]
[What an impressive presence, being able to slice a monster right in half with a shorts sword!]
Uhehe
A sinister laugh started to overflow from the delusional Harukis mouth.
Thats definitely sothing people would notice!
Ill start training to get better with the Magic Sword as soon as we get back!!
Haruki solidified his determination to learn how to use energy-based attacks.
To have brought about such an amazing discovery
Haruki didnt feel bad at all about having spent so many points on enhancing his mask.
Haruki turned his palm towards his face and touched his mask with his fingertips.
Well! Ill say your body has been disgraced, Lady Rhea!
The long conversation between Haruki and Karen seed to have bored her.
Jumping out of Karens pocket, Chep climbed up the stage and started to groom Rheas leaves.
Since Haruki fought really close to the Giant Dark Tree in his previous battle, both Rheas body and her planters soil were littered with small pieces of crushed wood.
Chep began to respectfully remove them with her hands.
Hmm?
At that mont, Haruki noticed a slight change through his mask.
Small bubbles began to appear and float around Rhea and Chep.
Raw power started to overflow from the ground.
Then, the bubbles gathered in the center of the stage.
Lets get you back to the backpack, Rhea Ah! Esta!
Haruki called out to Esta, who he hadnt seen for a while, while putting Rhea back into the backpack.
Harukis voice echoed throughout the floor.
Then, a shining deep crimson thing fell from the top of the greyed-out giant tree.
It was Esta.
Was he playing at exploration by himself?
Still, he had gone all the way up there
Haruki smiled bitterly at the playful Estas actions.
Esta curled up as he fell to the ground, picking up speed.
Then, as he approached the ground, he unrolled and spread all of his tiny legs.
He slowed down as he used his entire body as a parachute.
He spun forwards once, and then he landed gracefully.
Impressive!
Haruki had to repress the urge to yell Ten out of ten! after seeing Estas performance.
However, they were in the middle of an unusual event.
Haruki regretted not having ti to play with Esta at the mont.
Look, Karaboshi! Theres a pattern on the stage!
Haruki imdiately turned to see what was that about after hearing Karens seemingly worried voice.
A dark red pattern erged on the surface of the upper side of the stage, which had been completely plain until a few monts ago.
A chill went down Harukis spine as he saw that pattern.
A magic circle!? Step back, Karen!!
