Happy Monday!
This chapter is sowhat longer than the other chapters, which Im sure so of you would be glad for. Not only that, Commander Saran makes a brief appearance, so for those who miss him, do look forward to that. Anyways, enjoy the chapter, and as always, let know what you thought of it.
The chira was truly troubleso.
Even if it was one v. one, the movents of the snake tail was unreadable and its poisonous, so it wasnt wrong to say that it was two v. one.
tsk.
When I jumped back in accordance to my perception skill, the place that I had just been in was lted by poison.
I continued moving backwards and dodged the claws of the lunging animal as well.
its roughly two, three ters.
I asured the range of the poison by eye, and distanced myself from the chira.
As I was observing the chira, it ca charging, as if to say that break ti was over.
I held Yatonokami at the ready, and I moved forward and not backwards.
Guruaaa.
this is not enough either, huh.
The Yatonokami that caught hold of its neck just as we passed one another was repelled.
Previously, I was going to cut off the tail, but it was also repelled.
The Minotaurs hide was good, even though the fur was fluffy at a glance, it was hard.
It was disregarding the various laws of nature.
With that montum, we were five ters apart and facing each other.
Both of use bent down, and clashed.
When youre dealing with an assassin whose agility was second-to-none and, a chira who had excellent leg strength, even when theyre five ters apart, they cant be contained .
Guhhh.
However, when it ca down to physical strength, at that mont, I was inferior.
By nature, assassins didnt do direct confrontations.
They cowardly slit the targets throat, from behind.
Even though youre slitting their throats, theres no need to use too much strength.
The chira appeared at the spot where I had been knocked down onto, chasing after .
I twisted my body and dodged it, and crashed into the ground right after.
I fell over and decided to keep my distance, but before I could stand up, i received an impact in my abdon.
I was hit and crashed into the wall, everything in front of blanked out.
The difference in strength was too much.
If I was caught even once, I would be toyed with as if it were ssing with a baby.
Perhaps it was on purpose, or perhaps it because of luck, it seems that the claws had not reached , and I was not torn apart.
However, it was certain that a few ribs were broken, one of which seems to have pierced an internal organ.
Blood spilt from my mouth, it might get dangerous if I dont get dical treatnt soon.
Objectively looking at my injury, although it was too late, I realized that this was not the ti to be stubborn about having a direct confrontation.
In the first place, the boss was not weak enough for to be able to fight it with my magic and skills sealed.
my bad. I will fight seriously from now on.
I said that to the chira who saw get up from far away and I held my hand out as if I was holding sothing.
The chira suddenly stiffened.
Shadow Magic.
The shadows within the dim bosss room blew up.
It hadnt co out in a while and it seed happy.
A thin yet tough shadow wrapped itself around the chiras feet.
That was, not sothing that I instructed it to do.
As I thought, it seems that your magic has its own consciousness.
Commander Sarans voice resounded within my head.
Was that, the night when the the forest was nearly annihilated?
Consciousness? Magic?
Yes. After all, magic like shadow magic doesnt exist in this world.
Within Commander Sarans office, my jaw dropped at the controversial statent that was smoothly uttered.
Ha? No, shadow magic is actually properly displayed on my status though.
Yes, I dont doubt its existence itself. Since I saw that power with my own eyes today.
Commander-san, who put his elbows on the desk and was broadly smiling, seed like he was having a lot of fun.
Of course, it wasnt amusing for though.
The magic of this world seems to be divided variously, and it is actually divided into certain attributes.
He turned over unwanted docunts onto the other side, and easily drew a diagram.
First off, the fundantal fire, water, earth and wind. These are normal skills, abilities, etc., however, it is relatively easy to acquire them.
He drew four circles and filled them in with the letters of the four magics that he told about.
And then, each circle had lines drawn out and several circles were drawn.
I was looking at it upside down, it sohow looks like a drawing of the ecosystem, I muttered this irrelevant thought in my head.
First is my light magic, but it cos from one elent and is derived from water. Now then, what do you think cos from water and light?
isnt it healing?
Yes, thats correct. As usual, you have a good understanding and it is worth it to teach you.
Commander Saran was grinning broadly and wrote down healing in between water and light.
Other magics like dispel magic are derived from healing magic, but they all co from water magic. In addition, darkness magic cos from earth magic, lightning magic from light magic, it cos out to be like this.
Commander Saran continuously wrote down magics that even I knew.
Shadow magic was not included in this.
Isnt it derived from darkness magic?
That is a good question. However, I thought that you, the user, would understand it well, but shadow magic consists of physical attacks, and darkness magic attacks the mind. In that case, it would be strange for darkness magic to be derived from earth magic, but thats how it is.
In short, that ans that that area is vague? Got it.
Although I have lived for a long ti, there are still a lot of things that I dont know.
Commander Saran said this, and wrote down shadow magic a little further away.
I think that that the fact that your shadow magic is being classified as an extra skill is related to that area. besides, today was the first ti Ive seen sothing like shadow magic.
He was looking at with his eyes shining.
Just like, a scientist who made a new discovery with their gaze that had turned towards an experintal guinea pig.
Compared to Commander Sarahs light magic, a skill that can annihilate a forest is, dangerous though.
Maa, maa, for , a part of doesnt want you to use it and other part wants you to keep on using it.
Really. Then, what do you an by my magic having its own consciousness?
I turned my head as if running from that gaze, and brought it back to the real issue at hand.
Commander hit his hand with a pon, and put down the pen.
Today, when the forest was almost annihilated, if you looked at it right after it happened, the magic could only be seen as running wild.
It was actually running wild.
Maa, there is that, but sothing like magic running wild, would be when it would target the person who invoked it.
When it involved the common sense of this world, there was nothing to retort.
The reason was simple, it was because I dont know.
It was extrely humiliating though.
As a matter of fact, your magic today, it could be seen that, far from causing you harm, it turned towards the forest by itself. Zeal-kun is of the sa opinion on this.
if thats what Vice-Commander Zeal said, then thats probably how it is.
Ah! My glass heart was hurt just now!
Glass? Aah, tempered glass, huh.
Tempered glass? T, this ti, please tell about it.
There was nothing more unpleasant than a starving man thirsting for knowledge.
I pushed Commander Saran who had brought his face close to back.
Well? If my magic had its own consciousness, what about it?
Lets see. When it runs wild again and if there were people around, they might get caught up in it. Shadow magic in itself is an extrely strong magic, but theres the fatal problems of MP consumption and control.
And, the joking around look on his face disappeared and he turned serious.
I had great admiration for the speed of this persons change every ti.
Akira-kun, please use this magic after getting permission from , or when you have confird that there isnt anyone around. Even if its completely under control, you can not be careless. alright?
I got it.
The right side is ok, the left side is ok, above is ok, below is ok. .target confird.
The shadow were waiting for my orders, as if it was telling to hurry up. .
I could see that the chira was struggling to escape from the shadow, but it wasnt able to escape from my shadow.
Alright, thats good. Eat ssily.
The shadow, made an inaudible sound full of delight.
The shadow was gradually eroding the chiras body.
For the first ti, the chira raised its voice that was full of fear.
However, I did not stop the shadows.
Aa if it was a bloodthirsty demon, it did as I told it to, and ate the chira ssily.
It was to the extent that the shadow penetrated the skin that didnt have a single injury and tore the chiras body into pieces.
The bosss room was filled with the sll of blood.
It was so stinky that I was nauseous, but strangely, I didnt find it unpleasant. Rather, I even had a feeling that I had slled it all the ti, ever since I was little,
In the end, did my five senses beco strange because of the pain?
The satisfied shadow, ca out from where the chira that had been torn into pieces to the point of being unrecognizable was, and ca back to my feet.
Youve worked hard. Thanks.
When I said this, the shadow snuggled up to my leg like a cat, and disappeared.
As expected, lets not use shadow magic and skills only while on the floors. it may be, tough for, the boss.
I lost consciousness while leaning on the wall.
As one would expect, it seems that the pain was more than I could tolerate.
Masters damage has exceeded the acceptable value. Forcible activation of Shadow Magic. Mode, Recovery. It is confird that Masters MP is insufficient. Collecting the necessary amount from the magic power that had been preserved by the shadow magic. recovery complete. Shadow Magic, activation suspended.
Within the room where there wasnt anyone who heard that, a chanical voice ca out of my mouth, but no one knew about that.
