The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life Chapter 114.1

Translator: Jiro Editor: Ryunakama

While continuing to avoid the Rock Dragons coming at I started moving towards the right, however I ended up encountering Ain who was running away from another Dragon.

Grandpa I managed to run away! Wh- arent there even more now?

Thats right. Theres quite a bit more.

What are we going to do about this!

Do not fret. I have a plan Ain turn into a sword.

Thats fine and all but Here I go.

Accompanied by light, Ain turned into her Divine Sword form and landed in my hand.

Divine Sword Ainbelle.

It was a sword that could absorb ones magic power and by swinging it the absorbed magic power would be released. I had nurous ways of using it so it was one of my trump cards. On the other hand the cost for using it was quite high. Compared to her normal gluttonous state, when using this Ain ended up eating a trendous amount of gems so I didnt normally want to use it.

Ain addressed it as a Divine Sword but to it was just a Magic Sword.

Still this ti I have no choice but to use it Hya!

While cursing I activated Ti Square. While ti was stopped I cast Black Boots twice. Afterwards I looked at the Divine Sword Ainbelle and aid the double cast Black Boots at it.

Divine Sword Ainbelle began to be covered in wind and it promptly sucked the magic power into its blade.

Then I once more cast Ti Square.

I cast Black Boots twice more and activated it while simultaneously swinging Divine Sword Ainbelle, activating the other two Black Boots charges within it.

Fourfold Spell Synthesis Black Boots Square.

The rising wind enveloped my body and I could suddenly feel myself beco lighter. I waited for the nurous Rock Dragons to get as close as possible. To , the charging Rock Dragons currently looked as if they had stopped.

I waited right until the Rock Dragons were about to attack. Then, in a single breath, I passed right through the middle of the crowd.

RAWRRR?

The Rock Dragons raised a howl of confusion as they lost their target.

I entered the small shed in the back and released Divine Sword Ainbelle.

I had escaped for now; however, I couldnt relax just yet.

I cast Black Coat and my figure beca identical to the scenery.

..!!Fourfold increase really does take its toll though.All of my joints are creaking.Increasing the bodys physical capabilities with magic really puts a huge burden on the bodybine it with increasing it fourfold and running at full throttle and its no wonder its like this.

I dont have ti to leisurely rest I must get to Milly and the others as soon as possible.

While being grateful to my still creaking body I slowly headed to where Milly and the others were. I could see the Rock Dragons scattering in the distance after they had lost sight of .

If it was a Boss made up of an enormous amount of Magic Power, or a Mage that had Magic Power above a certain number they would have probably been able to see through Black Coat, however no matter how strong they may be, monsters that were normally spawned in a Dungeon would have no way to see through it.

It was really efficient when trying to shake off monsters.

I would even say that it was a spell that was essential when exploring through this Dungeon crawling with Rock Dragons.

When I went back to Milly and the others they were still fighting against the Rock Dragons.

It seed like Lydia had also joined them after luring away and scattering so Rock Dragons.

I cast Scout Scope at a Rock Dragon that was firing its fire breath at Claude.

Rock Dragon

Lv 62

Magic Power 123,276 / 224,532

Whoa, it seems like theyre putting up a good fight.

I cast Blue Wall on the entrance of the small room that I had just entered. A wall of ice then appeared and blocked off the entrance.

The monsters from the outside shouldnt be able to find us now.

Oh youre back! Good work Zeph-chi

ZEPH YOURE LATE! Dont do this next ti

In contrast to Lydia who was carefree, Milly was casting Blue Gale with a desperate expression showing on her face.

Well the Rock Dragons movent was way too slow for Lydia and Milly must have probably drained her Magic Power by casting spells nurous tis.

And Claude who was fighting with a Rock Dragon, head on, was in such a frantic situation that she couldnt even allow herself to raise her voice at .

Good, if its like this then

Try to take care of it by yourselves saying that I leaned against a rock wall and took a resting position.

Wh-what are you saying! Zeph, you help as well!

Its not an opponent you cannot win against Or is it that you feel uneasy when Im not there? I said with a smile. In response Millys face got bright red and she raised her eyebrows.

WH-!?THATS NOT TRUE! Claude, Lydia were doing this!

Ahaha Lydia responded.

What an easy to control fellow.

And as before Claude had no chance to respond.

After that the intense fight continued for a while after which with a loud sound the Rock Dragons huge body fell to the ground.

The Rock Dragons body then disappeared after being defeated by the three exhausted girls with Milly being the most drained..

Haaa. Ha.W-we did it!

Phew that one sure was tough. Kuro-chan are you okay? [1. TL Note: Claudes nickna which Lydia calls her]

I-Im afraid Im n-not doing that great. saying that Claude began falling to the ground.

Seeing that I imdiately rushed and embraced her right before she was about to fall.Looking at Claudes face I saw that she was pale and looked extrely exhausted.

. Claude, you did great.

Th-thank y-you she said.

I proceeded to cast Healing on her which seed to lift her a bit.

The other two also had a look of accomplishnt showing on their faces.

Unfortunately, we werent able to produce the Rock Dragon Fangs that we had set out to get but being able to defeat such a monster without should have raised Milly and the others confidence.

Everyone, good job. You did great. I looked towards Milly with a smile

Hmph O-of course we did! she replied while turning her blushing face.

She really is easy to control.Still thats one of her good qualities.

What are you grinning about!?

Nothing. I said while putting my hand on Millys head and stroking it so as to try and dodge the question.

Afterwards, I suddenly got a call from soone while I was joining the girls in fighting three Rock Dragons.

Zeph-san? Where are you?

I clearly heard Shirushus voice. It seems like she had finally woken up.

Oh Shirushu. Youve woken up I see.

Y-yesS-so, where is everyone?

Were hunting. I think well be back soon, so itd be great if you could prepare sothing for us to eat later.

I understand; Ill get to it right away!

After I finished my telepathy with Shirushu I turned towards everyone.

So thats how it is. We should go back soon.

Youve got a point. Im hungry as well

Im also tired. said Claude

You did well today Kuro-chan Lydia said to her.

And with that todays hunt was over. Unfortunately, not a single Rock Dragon Fang dropped, however everyones level went up and it also beca precious battle experience so it wasnt in vain.

Everyone, great job!

When we got back to the tent Shirushu was there to welco us, wearing an apron.

Dinners ready

It seed like she had prepared dinner for us, just as we discussed beforehand. Milly let out a faint smile because she probably still couldnt forget the strange taste from the other day.

Even so she couldnt refuse Shirushus kindness so in the end she lifted up the pots lid.

The inside was filled with vegetables and noodles and a pleasant aroma drifted from the pot.

Well it does look tasty.

As if having thought the sa thing everyone swallowed their saliva.

We received bowls full of food from Shirushu and when our gazes t we fearfully put the food in our mouths.

It was then that Milly suddenly jumped up and yelled at Shirushu.

SHIRUSHU! THIS IS DELICIOUS!

I agree. Its completely different from yesterdays al. said Claude, agreeing with Milly.

Shirushus al was way better than yesterdays Rather it was actually tasty. Everyones eyes went round due to the change.

Fufu. Thank you everyone. I tried to make it according to the recipe I got from Lydia-san.

It looks like it went well Shiru-chan.

Wh-, hihihi

Lydia got close and stroked Shirushus head with one hand, while her other hand was fondling Shirushus breasts.

Shirushu apparently felt bad about running away after she had gotten Lydias help so she just stood there with a red face, while letting Lydia do whatever she pleased.

Lydia, leave it at that wont you? I said while grabbing Lydias hand and pulling it away from Shirushus body.

Youre so aan. Dont you do the sa thing all the ti Zeph-chi.

Thats true Zeph, youre not one to judge.

The reason I do it is to help Shirushu train to control her animal nature. I said while bringing down a hand-chop over Millys head. Afterwards I moved my chopsticks towards the food Shirushu had prepared.

While eating we reviewed todays hunt as well as made plans for tomorrow.

Isnt it possible to have Shirushu stay close to the rooms entrance and have her notify us whenever monsters draw close? proposed Claude

If we do that, then shell just end up staying there by herself. Isnt it way too pitiful Milly disagreed with her

I-Im okay with it. Claude seed to be on the logical side, while Milly took the emotional.

Shirushu also didnt look like she was that intent on fighting.

Rather, why dont we have Shiru-chan go out of control and bring the monsters to her? Lydia proposed

Its not a bad idea, however apart from spells, normal attacks dont work on the Rock Dragons. Even in her beastfolk form it would still take a lot of ti for Shirushu to take care of them. And theres no guarantee that she wont go after us.

That really is scary..

Milly and the others were looking at and Lydia with cold gazes, because of our discussion just now.

Guess they cant take a joke.

I looked at Lydia and shrugged my shoulders.

Well I guess its fine if we have her take on the lookout and healing role. The Rock Dragons are certainly strong so having Shirushu with her good hearing will allow her to figure out where the monsters are coming from. I said, to which everyone nodded.

I-Ill do my best! Shirushu said while clenching both her fists.

Well then it seems like weve co to a conclusion. We have to get up early so its best if we go to sleep.

It would be troubleso if Shirushu ended up turning like she had yesterday so I decided not to perform the Magical Power Line strengthening today.

After saying that I wouldnt do it until we managed to acquire the Rock Dragon Fangs Claude looked at with a sad expression.

Could she actually be enjoying it quite a bit?

She sohow does seem to like it when I do it.
