The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life Chapter 104

Translator: Nefarian

Milly and I were standing in front of the entrance to a dense forest as we looked up at the trees.

This was the Goliath forest which was both large and deep.

This looks like it will be a hard task and Milly seed to think so as well.

Putting her hand on her waist she was saying hmm and seed to be thinking deeply.

So, how do we find it?

But then she delegates the task to completely.

Tsk, this girl

Well naturally I have already prepared for it.

Just watch and learn. I have an idea. .For the ti being cover your ears.

?

While looking at curiously Milly listens to as she covers her ears.

And then I proceeded to use my telepathy to get in contact with Shirushu.

(Shirushu, can you hear ?)

(Y-Yes. I can hear you!)

(I will send you a signal now. Please look up at the sky)

(The sky? Okay.)

Hearing Shirushus befuddled response, I raise my hands towards the sky.

Aiming into the far distance at the maximum range of the spell I chanted out Burst Sphere.

Goooooooonnnn!!

The atmosphere shakes along with a thunderous sound and the trees rustle.

Milly was crouching down as she strongly holds her ears.

(Did you see that?)

(~~ Umm.. Yes. In the south-west direction there was so kind of terrible explosion. it seems to be quite a far distance from though)

This ans that I will arrive to where Shirushu is located if I walk northeast.

Lets go Milly, the monsters here hides themselves and attacks while concealed. If you ever find any of them make sure to imdiately cast scout scope on them.

Understood! .By the way, what are you planning on doing?

I was thinking of making a path.

Holding my hands in front of , I cast Green Sphere.

The green magic ball that appears creates a path by shoving the trees out of the way and cuts a road open for us to travel.

Its an ergency situation right now, besides its much faster to just go straight to our destination.

Milly was looking at with an amazed expression.

Youre really going all out arent you..

Its a state of ergency. I will create a path for us, Milly please repel the monsters that co.

Yeah!

While we avoid the trees blown by the spell, I advanced forwards as I ditated.

Walking straight ahead.

Sotis Treant Apes would appear but they would be defeated by Millys Blue Gale.

In a single blow.

Even though its a great spell, Blue Gales power is supposed to be low, however her spell has the sa amount of power as when I combine my spells together.

Millys rapid growth rate is truly terrifying.

(Shirushu, we are heading towards your location, can you see us approaching?)

(Yes. Sotis I can see a tornado rising up. Is that you?)

(Thats right, is it fine if I just keep advancing forwards in this direction?)

(I think so Umm, Im really sorry about causing so many inconveniences)

(I told you not to worry about it, didnt I?)

(Yes)

It seems that the Blue Gale was pretty good as acting as a sort of signal.

When I advanced straight like this suddenly the presence of monsters thickens unexpectedly.

When I strained my ears, I could hear the breathing of a beast sowhere nearby the vicinity.

This is

..Weve been surrounded.

Zeph acted rashly so I guess we stood out too much?

Perhaps.

Multiple Treant Apes surrounded us, moreover there was such bad visibility around this area so if they attacked us all at once it would be troubleso.

Lets make the first move, Milly get ready.

Okay!

Chanting out Ti Square, I cast both Red Wave and Black Wave during the ti suspension and let it loose.

Pyro Wave.

Along with my words, an explosive flaming wind violently blew over the surroundings.

The fla burns out the trees and the wind blows away the leaves.

Kyaaaaaahh!?

Gogaaaaahh!?

Millys skirt was lifted up and fluttering because of the wind and she was trying her hardest to pin it down so as to not let see.

At the sa ti, the monsters around her which were hiding in the vicinity also started to scream.

Soon the flas created by my magical power disappears and the only thing that remained was the aftereffects of the destruction caused.

Cough, cough.. Zephh

She may have inhaled so smoke, her eyes were watery and she was in a coughing fit.

After the vicinity beca charred and burnt, three silhouettes of Treant Apes and a huge shadow three tis the size of the apes appeared.

Covered by the drifting smoke it had thick arms, the ground shook as it walked across the field, this was the boss monster of Goliath Forest, it was the Giant Ape.

It had sharp and fat fingernails and fangs, large bristled hair and fiery red eyes. It was staring at us with hostility.

Along with the fact that this fellow was scowling at us, the atmosphere around us was starting to tremble.

A severe sense of intimidation, even Milly seems to have noticed this.

This was the feeling you usually get when a boss enters its enraged mode and seals the use of teleportation within the area.

The boss monster in the north continent has sothing akin to the sa effect that it can use before it actually enters its enraged mode.

Is this Oppression Magic..?! I dont think its entered its enraged state yet, right?

Amongst the Northern Continents this type of this happens quite often. Because it is very difficult to deal with, please be careful.

..Un!

However, facing the Giant Ape in these circumstances. it looks like this will be quite the troubleso foe.

Its probably better if I notify Shirushu for the ti being.

(Shirushu)

(Whats the matter Zeph-san?)

(Sorry but, Im going to be a little late)

(Eh? Umm..?)

Saying my part to Shirushu, I cut off communications and completely focused my attention to what was in front of .

Gently slapping Millys back who was still gasping, I tried to clear her cough.

Gogaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!

The Giant Ape raises a roar and the mont it attempted to disappear into the shadow of a tree I quickly cast Scout Scope on it.

Giant Ape

Level 71

Magical Power Level:

The Giant Ape hid itself into the forest on the other hand, the three Treant Apes rushed head on towards us.

Blue!

Wait Milly!

I caught Millys hands which was about to imdiately shoot off a Blue Gale and turned it to the side.

The tornado changed trajectory from the center of the three Treant Apes and moved slightly so that it only crushed two of the apes.

As for the final Treant Ape charging at us, I grabbed Millys body and dashed away to avoid it.

Just like that I rolled and tried to get my body back up and Milly who was underneath struggled to lift her face.

Ow~. Geez! What are you doing, Zeph?!

I forgot to ntion this but when you defeat all the followers of the Giant Ape it will summon another batch of monsters. Not only that it will summon even more than before. Therefore, its necessary to leave one alive.

S-So thats how it is..

Yeah, therefore from here on out we need to aim at the Giant Ape.

..And so, how were you able to know such a thing?

I looked away from Milly who was staring hard at and answer her.

It was sothing, from my past.

Like I said before, that kind of excuse is unreasonable!

Were in the middle of battle, co on.

Uuu. Thats no fair.

I helped Milly to stand up even though she was still complaining and chanted out Blue Wall to the Treant Ape who was trying to charge at us again.

The wall of ice wraps around the Treant Ape and seals its movents.

With this we can finally concentrate on the Giant Ape.

.So, what are we supposed to do?

Hmm

Neither Claude or Lydia is here.

The Giant Ape will be a considerably tough opponent if we are force to only use magic against it.

Well, winning is still possible though.

A thick branch flies from the forest but we had plenty of ti to avoid it.

Milly, can you see the Giant Ape?

Yeah! Clearly!

After about 30 seconds the effects of Scout Scope will disappear. Before that happens dont forget to recast the spell to update it.

Just like I told her she listened to and recasting Scout Scope.

the Giant Ape likes to leave the direct attacks to its follower apes and it is the type of boss that will conceal itself whilst launching long distance attacks.

Inside this deep forest, no matter how many Treant Apes we manage to defeat there will be an endless stream that can replace it. Using these smaller apes as a at shield the Giant Ape would normally be a very difficult monster to face if you fought it via normal ans.

However, the surrounding trees have been burnt with my Pyro Wave and the field of view has been widened, this creates a more favorable environnt for us. Moreover, even though the monster was hiding in the forest, because of our ability to determine its location with Scout Scope, its almost like its revealed in plain sight.

If we know the source of its attacks we can more easily avoid the projectiles it launches, especially because we received Lydias special training, doing sothing like this was a piece of cake.

Just in case though, I also chanted Safe Protection on both Milly and myself.

In the next mont, a stone is launched toward Millys direction.

Should I help her? Is what I was thinking but then again, Milly should be able to dodge this level of attack with ease.

Although I dont want to sound like Rui, pampering a person to much will do them no good.

While thinking about such things, I pulled my hand that was going to grab Milly back to my side and Milly was able to avoid the danger without problems.

Phew, I let out a breath of relief and Milly looks at with a pout on her face.

.I can totally handle that level of attack okay?

Did she find out about the fact that I was going to help her out for a mont back there?

Wow, did she really see through that easily?

Milly has really grown up.

.Thats true, Im sorry, my bad.

Saying that I patted her head and Milly seed to have sowhat recovered her mood slightly.

A gigantic tree flies towards us and both Milly and I dodge to the left and right respectively, Milly starts to prepare a Blue gale and I coordinate with her and chant Ti Square.

Casting two Blue Gales within the ti suspension effect, I released it at the sa ti as Millys spell.

Blue Gale Triple!

Both of our voices harmonize together.

It seems that Milly saw through the fact that I would cast a triple combination spell.

She probably wanted to assert the fact that shes already beco a full-fledged magician.

When I looked towards Millys direction she showed her pearly white teeth as if to ask: How did I do?

Well, well, that arrogant side of her still has much to learn to be honest.

Our tornadoes mixed together to create a huge tornado and generates smaller ones as it travelled towards the monster.

It managed to deal 47,000 damage, there is nothing to complain about its destructive power.

Before it starts to enter the enraged mode, the Giant Ape will only perform long distance attacks. Lets continuing shooting at it while we ditate.

Un!

In saying this casting Blue Gale, especially using Ti Square and casting double costs a huge amount of magical energy.

Even if I was completely recovered I would only be able to shoot this magic twice, so I really need to conserve my energy.

After all, I cant forget to maintain the Blue Wall to continue trapping the movents of the Treant Ape.

ditating and building my magical energy, both Milly and I continued to fire countless number of Blue Gales towards the Giant Ape.

Avoiding the rocks thrown at her, Millys Blue Gale scatters the leaves around the area.

The Giant Ape has a remaining Magical Power level of 133,245.

The value is about to reach about 1/3 and it will soon enter its enraged mode.

Its going to happen soon isnt it?

Milly seems to understand this fact as well.

The mont the Giant Ape enters its enraged mode; it will begin to challenge us with close quarters combat.

We were planning on whittling it down with two more Blue Gale Triples.

After that we should be able to defeat it by throwing a barrage of magical attacks.

I left Milly to continue launching magical attacks at it while I was concentrating on Magical Recovery.

ditation.

I still had so Magical Recovery dicine that was given to us by Andrei but I wanted to save them in preparation for ergency situations.

Zeph! Any ti now!

I know, Im also good with my preparations over here.

Matching Millys magic casting ti, we launched a Blue Gale Triple.

A huge tornado is generated in the forest and the shout of the Giant Ape could be heard throughout.

Pishi Pishi, a sort of cracking sound resounded.

It was entering its enraged mode.

Milly was gulping down her breath beside and we both concentrated out sights on the rustling of leaves.

And then the thing that appeared from within the thicket of bushes was the person that was supposed to be waiting deep within the forest..

Shirushu?

Milly small voice reverberated in this silent forest.
