The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life Chapter 44

n I got back to the lodge, Lydia and Claude were making breakfast. The rich scent of Miso Soup was floating through the air.

Even before wed left, Lydia had stuffed various vegetables into her bag. As I suspected, she planned to stay over right from the start.

As expected of a shady rchant.

[Welco back Zeph-kun] [You wake up early huh, on the other hand look at Milly-chan..]

Lydia looks amazed as she points at Milly, who is still snoring and drooling.

Shes as weak as always in the morning.

I give a wry smile while looking at her as she turns over and continues to snore.

[Is there anything I can help with?] [Its fine, itll be done soon] [Yep yep, just take it easy]

The two of them kindly refuse, and since I have nothing to do I guess Ill ss around with the still sleeping Milly.

I poke her cheek, and her face looks a little unhappy as she turns it away and twists her body. I dont mind it and keep on poking her, and she continues to roll and roll away.

This is kinda funny.

Lydia is showing great interest in the state of affairs over here, her eyes have gotten big and she is staring fixedly.

In her hand she is gripping a kitchen knife and is rhythmically cutting vegetables.

Look at what youre doing, Look!

Then a little while later,

[Zeph-kun, Milly-san, breakfast is ready] [Milly wake up its morning] [Nnnn~Im up~]

She says as she raises her arms.

Pull up, is probably what she ans.

What a needy fella.

[Aa]

As I co around to Millys front, I hear Claude start to say sothing.

Hesitantly I grab Millys hands, she grips on and completely lets her weight settle on my arms.

[Uo!?]

I lose my balance and end up right on top of Milly.

Before I even noticed it, both her arms had wrapped around my back and she held onto tightly.

[Ehehe~ Good morning Claude~]

It looks like shes mistaken for Claude.

She hugs and snuggles her face into my chest.

At this turn of events I can see Lydias jealous face.

It looks like shes saying Ill do it next ti

[.Nn? Sohow today, isnt Claudes body kinda harder than usual?]

*Pat**Pat* she goes. Milly rubs my back.

[Are you still half-asleep Milly?] [Eh.huh? UmmmZeph?]

Milly separated herself from , opened her eyes, and confird that it was . Then as she looked at her face got bright red, then.

*Thump!*

And she head-butts and starts to bite at with all her strength.

While Im in pain she goes, Why is Zeph here!? Idiot! Hurry up and get out! And such.

It looks like she is actually still half-asleep.

After we eat breakfast and go outside the weather seems to have cleared up.

There are few clouds and the earth stretches out before us and we can feel the sun shining down on us.

[Its so nice out huh~?]

As Lydia stretches, her big breasts assert themselves as they jiggle and sway.

When Milly sees this, her face seems to get a little depressed.

[B.By the way, shouldnt we start climbing again?]

Claude guesses whats going on and changes the topic.

What an attentive fella.

[Thats ri-ght, if we climb so more to a more open place, roc birds are often there, so lets get going.]

Lydia lifts her right hand as if to say lets do it, and once again her breasts shake grandly.

adow near the top of the mountain

[Waa~ This is so nice~] [Yep, the wind feels great~]

Milly closes her eyes, spreads her arms, and enjoys the wind blowing through the adow with her whole body.

Indeed, the wind feels good when it strokes my cheeks.

[Its a good place right? In the past, my family used to co here pretty often]

To have a picnic in a place where strong monsters show up often.it seems like her entire family is just as monstrous

[Shhh!]

Lydia puts her finger to her lips, and everyone quiets down at this signal.

There are 2 roc birds hanging about in the grass, were pretty far away so it doesnt look like theyve noticed us.

[What should we do Kuro-chan?] (Nickna for Claudeitd be Clau-chan but Japanese pronunciation makes it Kuro-chan)

[I will take the one on the left and Lydia-san please take care of the one on the right] [Alwight] (she says it cutesy)

[Both of you wait. Theres sothing I want to try]

As Lydia looks at confused, I cast Ti Square.

With ti stopped I cast Black Boots twice and Lydias feet are covered in wind.

[Ohhh!? It kinda feels like my body got lighter?]

Black Boots enhances the physical abilities of the target and since its been cast twice simultaneously, the power has risen even higher.

However, inversely the ti it can remain active shortens by quite a bit.

[This is fun!]

*Hop*Hop* she hops twice, then a third ti, in the next instant she kicks off the ground and appears almost instantly in front of the roc bird and it gets blown backwards.

[How fast!?]

Milly is surprised and looks at Lydia whos still in the air. Before we noticed it, she took out her axe and is gripping it with both hands. The remaining roc bird shoots its neck forward to stab Lydia with its beak.

But, at that mont Lydia disappeared, and reappeared at the roc birds feet, she then hauls back and swings at the roc birds feet as hard as she can.

Flinching, the roc bird stumbles.

[Blue Gale!]

The whirlwind/waterspout that Milly calls forth batters the roc bird, and taking advantage of this, Lydia once again strikes with her axe.

Her movents are like a whirlwind.

I cant see her moving at all..it looks like I raised her speed a little too much.

[This is the enhanced version of Black Boots huh. It looks like its too difficult for to master] [As I thought, it looks pretty harsh]

This magic raises your speed but, you cant really figure out when the effects will stop. If the effects stop in the middle of an enemys attack, rather than the magic helping you dodge the strike, youd be more liable to get hit.

Even so, it looks like Lydia will sohow be able to handle it, but its too difficult for and Claude to utilize this.

[Attack enhancent and Defensive enhancent would probably be better I think, huh?] [Claude why dont go give Attack enhancent a try?]

I cast Ti Square, and then Red Glove twice, and Claudes arm is covered in fla.

[Amazing..I can feel strength overflowing.!]

Claude rushes over to the roc bird and swings her sword.

[Teyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!]

The sword seems to cut right into the roc birds body, but *Ba kin!!* a sound echoes and it breaks.

[It cant be!?]

It was a cheap sword without enchantnt, so it couldnt endure Claudes enhanced strike.

It seems like synthesized Body enhancent magic really does choose its own user.

She sohow managed to dodge the roc birds counterattack and forces it back with her shield.

[Blue Gale!]

Millys magic explodes, and the two roc birds are crushed.

[Oh I think my level went up?] [Congrats!] [..Lydia-san, didnt it just go up yesterday?]

Lydia is only level 14 still.

Its very likely that it will still continue rising.
